Pre-64 model 70
1 Attachment(s)
Well on a pretty good high right now, no not drug induced, this is my first Winchester pre-64 model 70 in 243. it's an early 1950's and near mint condition. The owner had the custom scabbard made for it also. I was right on the scope it's a weaver 2.5x8 however, I've never seen this type of cross hairs before. He called them the screen door model as there are a series of verticle and horizional lines that form a rectangle much like a screen door. The very center is then a square set of multiple cross hairs. Very different and cool. He threw in some ammo and a belt shell holder. Today is a good day for the HM collector! Karl, you ever seen one of those Weaver scopes as described, very strange. I never knew they even made such a thing. Oh, I put 8 bills out for it and think it was a good buy in today's market.
No that reticle is new to me, but sounds cool...
I haven't saw that type before. Is it externel adjustments on the rings for windage and elevation? I think that you should loan me the rifle for a couple years and I will do a long term evaluation on the rifle. I never owned one of the real pre 64's, you are living right my friend...
Karl, it has external adjustments on the outside of the rear rings. Seems to put pressure on the scope body to move it where you want to. I've seen a lot of scopes over the years but nothing like this. Right now feel like a kid at Christmas. Spent last two hours cleaning/waxing, some of it was drool.:ph34r: My buddies in PA have a couple of the model 70's, I just migrated towards Remington over my early years.
I think external adjustments are a little fragile
Not that we ever want to hit our rifles or scopes on anything but I think that the externel adjustment models I have seen looked more fragile. It is really cool that you have that Model 70 to shoot. I wonder if the twist rate has changed over the years on the 243? I know that Remington made a mistake with the picking the wrong twist rate on the 244 Remington later changed to a faster twist and called it the 6mm Rem. I will bet that you will be having fun shooting 95-100gr bullets in yours. Recoil will be non existant.
I will probably re-scope it with better optics. I shot my first buck with a 243 borrowed, and never added one to my collection. Looking forward to putting some rounds through it just to see....
Very nice looking rifle.
That's a fine looking rifle HM, Will look nice standing with the others in your safe. :thumbup:
That scope sounds like it has the "TMR" or Tactical Military Reticle, which operates much in the same way as a mil dot reticle, but gives more info if you know how to use it. I'm not well versed on this stuff, someone who has been to sniper school or possibly on a SWAT team would know how to utilize the marks, but knowing the system can give you the approx. size of your target, the approx. distance and then the external adjust's allow you to dial in for bullet drop and windage correction according to that, it gets pretty complicated.
Congrats HM great looking rifle.Are you planning on using it alot if so give us the range report.You gotta be due for another gun safe buy now:wink:.
TLF, I'm not sure what the military had in the 50's but it doesn't look like a military type set-up to me. I need to do some history review on the Weaver scope line from that period. The scope has three hairs per side and top to bottom, then a square in the middle with cross hairs centered. There are contrasting hair thicknesses all around. It may have been something to appreciate back then but to me way to busy, as I don't see the reason for so many lines. I will re-scope the rifle with better glass, modern rings and scope adjustments. The rifle deserves quality glass but my budget has been blown out of the water big time and 2012 purchases have officially been curtailed so maybe I'll rob something off one of the other rifles for now :confused: Thanks for all the comments everyone. I wasn't in the market to buy anything but then Easter Sunday the offer was made and you know me couldn't resist. The seller is in his 80's and thinning out his remaining collection. He has a few more things to sell off hopefully in 2013, 2014........:lol:

"You call this a life, Tony? No job! No girlfriend! Still livin' with your momma! Ain't got no ambitions! Just Comin' home from those smelly caves with spider webs in ya hair! Bats nesting in your pockets! That ain't a life, Tony! I tell ya, many a mother woulda kicked you out MONTHS ago! You should be grateful for my generosity!"
Ugh! Just, tell me you didn't throw away my bat, Ma!

AIMing for Mille Lacs
There might not be a fishery more suited for the Anglers Insight Marketing (AIM) Pro Walleye Series than Lake Mille Lacs.
First, the stringent protected slot limit of 17 to 28 inches makes tournament fishing a crapshoot on the lake. And so many of the walleyes being caught on Mille Lacs are in the mid-20-inch range these days; its loaded with fish toward the top end of the slot.
In other words, pro anglers who catch the right fish, not necessarily the biggest fish, mostly would find success in a Mille Lacs walleye tournament.
And then there's the harvest allotted for non-tribal members on Mille Lacs. In a three-day pro walleye tournament, anglers could harvest hundreds if not thousands of pounds of "keeper" walleyes. That's only a fraction of the total allotment for non-tribal members on the lake, but in a year in which that number is shrinking fast, that could be an issue.
But where are you going to find a tournament that can somehow skirt the slot, keep the fish in the lake and still bring the biggest names in walleye fishing to a community that could use the windfall of dollars such a happening could bring?
Consider AIM and its unique "catch-record-release" format. According to Joe Baron, AIM Pro Walleye Series president and CEO, the circuit is considering adding Mille Lacs to its schedule for 2013.
"We just started talks with some of the people in the community, but I think they want us there," Baron said. "I really think the community would support it."
Baron didn't specify a community, so it's uncertain if, say, that would be Garrison, one of the more prominent communities on the lake. Instead, Baron said most of the conversation has been with resort owners.
Baron had just returned from an AIM tournament at Lake of the Woods, which was based in the heart of the major cluster of resorts about 12 miles north of Baudette. But because of the format, it was possible to have weigh-ins in Baudette and include that community, too. The first WalleyeFest, a community celebration surrounding the tournament, ensured that as well.
"The attractive thing about Mille Lacs is we could showcase that fishery," Baron said. "One of the reasons the format shines on lakes that have slot limits is the angler who catches the most amount of big fish is the angler that's going to win. If you're on a slot lake, you can't keep those slot fish. So the angler who catches the right fish wins. There's a huge element of luck."
Even daily limits on lakes don't apply in AIM tournaments. Anglers measure and take digital photos of their catch — the seven longest are recorded each day and lengths are converted to pounds using an AIM conversion table — before releasing the fish. The digital images are shown on stage at the weigh-ins and the event is streamed online. So no worries about slot and bag limits, culling or trying to keep fish alive in live wells.
The pros at the Lake of the Woods tournament lauded the format and the series; it appears to have a strong following. And with the greater Brainerd area home to numerous pro anglers — Brainerd's Perry Good finished 25th at Lake of the Woods — and the metro about two hours from Mille Lacs, a tournament on what is regarded by many as the top walleye fishery in the state could be hugely successful, Baron said.
"What plays into the equation is that a lot of team anglers and a lot of tournament fishermen are in that area," he said. "Going into an area like Mille Lacs, you're able to expose the format to another group of new anglers that wouldn't have to come so far to fish one of our events. There would be a high participation level there."
AIM, which completed its fifth year with the Lake of the Woods tourney, has also considered adding Leech Lake to its schedule.
"There's no doubt AIM should be able to get both tournaments, but my guess is we'll do one or the other for 2013. ... The anglers seem to prefer Mille Lacs," Baron said. "We're not ruling it out (adding Leech, too). But being there's already one tournament in Minnesota (Lake of the Woods), I don't foresee doing three in Minnesota."

|Wednesday March 27, 2002
It is highly likely (though propriety forbids me from stating it unequivocally) that the Inspector-General, who now presides over his own office, is none other than Moorhouse's travelling alter ego Francois Blase, who has been promoted in recognition of his many years' service to social intercourse and the art of the long lunch. Still the bon vivant and ebullient raconteur, he displays the same mordant wit and urbane, satirical insight that Blase dispensed over cocktails in bars from New York to Paris throughout the 1980s.
The compendium is arranged into four sections for easy reference: On Gastronomy, On Society, On Politics and On Culture, with some necessary overlap between the four. The perennial question of censorship, for example, and what one should do when others insist on doing your thinking for you, is addressed both as part of a cultural malaise because it bypasses the intellectual methods of opposing the things being censored, and as a miscellaneous issue of social concern where film and literature classification is criticised for endorsing the fallacy of social norms.
Advice is also offered on such things as formulating opinions about tribal politics in Australia, the consequences of abandoning the monarchy, the merits of eating more cheese, the institution of afternoon tea and how to conduct a successful controversy while maintaining a modicum of decorum.
With deep pessimism, the Inspector-General assesses the parlous state of conversation in Australia and continues his timely campaign against verbal-strutting and adversarial conversation by calling for a return to the abandoned protocols of taking one's turn and listening to what others have to say.
Underlying the humour of the Inspector-General's rulings is a genuine hankering for a bygone era of genteel elegance and ritual a time when more stringent codes of behaviour (not to mention silver cutlery, butter curls and starched napery) were in place to guard against the slip from urbane sophistication to anarchic barbarism.
It is tempting to invoke the adage that beneath the skin of all satirists is an arch conservative, although this brings us up against the oxymoronic dilemma of the conservative libertine. In Moorhouse's case, almost anything is permissible as long as it is done with style.

You know the songs I'm talking about. The songs with that sort of repetitive nature. I will show you my list and then you'll know: 1. Eyes Like Sparks 2. Folk Star 3. Be Bad For Me Also up for consideration but ultimately dismissed Jingle, 5:05, Seein' Her, and Makin' Me Go.
Dr. Tony Shore, not a fan of the way 49:00 was released. At all. Deb's MP3s has (Tell Me) Who You Gonna Marry? available for download. Allegedly this has been heard on 89.3's The Current, though I have yet to witness that with my own ears. The Allmusic Blog reviews Meet Glen Campbell which features

Andrea Myers at City Pages shares the thoughts that flitted through her head the first time she listened to 49:00. There seems to be a bit of confusion in blogland about what exactly happened to 49:00 and what 5:05 is (er, make that a lot of confusion). Heather at I am Fuel, You are Friends
You can buy the missing 5:05 missing from 49:00 on Tunecore for either a buck or $5.05. From what I can gather, 49:00 was suddenly and mysteriously pulled off the web for copyright problems. That damn medley. So what do you think, five more minutes for a buck?

Fundamentals of Trigger Control - YouTube
Can you shoot a revolver double action? You need to learn how to stage the trigger until it's breaking point, and practice. Unless a trigger creeps substantially having a heavy long trigger shouldn't be a problem with practice. Practice w/ snap caps until you master the trigger. The Body Guard 380 is designed for up close and personal work, but can be shot very accurately if you put in some time to master the trigger. It is what it is, a small pocket/deep concealment handgun, not a target shooting range gun, nor an IDPA competition pistol. I've heard that S&W may have a trigger kit for the Bodyguard, you may want to contact them to see what they can do.

Tempera painting
The word "tempera" comes from "stemperare" best prices for all customers! cheap prednisone for dogs buy prednisone online uk buy prednisone online secure, anonymous … generic valtrex (valacyclovir) 500 mg. quantity, price … without a prescription prednisone prescription assistance prednisone 10mg tablets, buy dapoxetine uk online. instant shipping, generic dapoxetine. that in Italian means dissolve the pigments of colour with water.
It was the first technique used by man to express himself already in prehistoric times.
The pigments are powders that are extracted from minerals, plants or animals of different colours.
The tempera technique reached its peak development in Italy between 13th and 15th century, so to say, it was the technique of Giotto, Botticelli, Michelangelo and many other very famous.artists.
In the "Book of Art" of the painter Cennino Cennini (1370-1440) we find all the secrets of painting. He describes how the artists of the time prepared the wood they used to paint, how they painted and also how they prepared tempera colours (Chapter LXXII).
The most popular method was to mix the egg yolk with pigment of colours. The result is good for painting on any surface: wall, wood or iron
It is therefore a long, delicate and very difficult preparation. In fact, the colour should be liquid but not too much, but it should not be too thick (pure) either because otherwise difficult to apply and subject to cracking.
Knowing this, you can now look with new eyes at an Early Renaissance painting so to discover the regularity of the strokes and especially appreciate the capacity, technique and the hard work that lies behind.

Adventureland Bazaar
|Adventureland Bazaar
|Disneyland Park (Paris)
|Opening date
|April 12, 1992
|General statistics
|Walt Disney Imagineering
|One Thousand and One Arabian Nights / Aladdin
Adventureland Bazaar is the main entrance to Adventureland in Disneyland Paris, themed to the One Thousand and One Arabian Nights.
When designing Adventureland for Disneyland Paris, Imagineers intended to keep the original idea of blending exotic environments from Africa, Asia and the Caribbean. Yet, since the One Thousand and One Arabian Nights are part of the European vision of exotism, they decided to add a middle-eastern pavilion at the entrance of the land. Named Adventureland Bazaar, this small recreation of an oriental city also acts as a shopping and eating place.
Adventureland Bazaar[edit]
In 1992, at the opening of the land, the building featured a covered maze-like street network and many shops:
- Les Trésors de Schéhérazade (Schaharazade's Treasures)
- L'Echoppe d'Aladin (Aladin's Shop)
- La Reine des Serpents (The Snake Queen)
- Le Chant des Tam-Tams (The Tam-Tams' Song)
- La Girafe Curieuse (The Curious Giraffe)
In 1993, one year after the release of the Disney movie Aladdin, a walkthrough attraction opened in the Bazaar, named Le Passage Enchanté d'Aladdin.
Agrabah Café[edit]
In 1999, most of the building was turned into Agrabah Café, with the exception of Les Trésors de Schéhérazade and La Girafe Curieuse. All shops and streets were merged to make one whole restaurant, although the details of the place are left unchanged (except for the shop Le Chant des Tam-Tams which was fully modified). As such, this place now offers a table service for guests. The restaurant specializes in a wide range of mediterranean meals.
Details of the Bazaar[edit]
The Bazaar features many references to tales from Arabian Nights:
- A mural of Aladdin and Genie popping out of the Lamp.
- A mural of Sindbad the Sailor.
- A mural of Shaharazade telling stories to her husband.
- A mural of the Ebony Horse.
- A mural of Princess Periezade.
- A room themed to the Snake Queen.
- A Roc's egg laid on top of a tower.
Originally, the building featured a proper oriental soundtrack. Since the Disney film Aladdin was released in 1992, this soundtrack was soon replaced with the movie's one. However, the original soundtrack was brought back shortly after the park's 15th anniversary.

early optispark vacuum source
My 93 optispark dist. went out and in researching the problem I found a vacuum circulation fix to keep the dist. dry inside like the 95/96's. By modifying the cap and base with tubes and hose, and running one hose to a vacuum source and the other hose to an intake source you create a loop of dry air. My question is 2 part. I tapped into the vacuum brake booster source at the plenum for the vacuum, will this effect my vacuum to the booster? The second question concerns the source of air. The article says to run the other hose to inside the car under the dash with a small fuel filter on it to keep the air clean. It seems to me that, that hose is inducting air into the plenum after the throtle causing a lean condition. Am I thinking correctly? By the way, this is on an LT1 engine in my 48 chevy Aero. Thanks
I'm going to check back on this one and see whats said.
[quote]It seems to me that, that hose is inducting air into the plenum after the throtle causing a lean condition. Am I thinking correctly?

Yes...If it is speed density it will affect the fuel ratio. If it is MAF, the ECM/PCM should compensate for it. If the banks are running lean, it should set a code without affecting drivability.
I would put the fresh air source to the back side of the air filter. I see no reason for an inline filter if it is drawing from filtered air.
This is a great idea to limit ozone formation in the dist. cap. Where did you get the information?
You can learn something everyday from this site. It is starting to be more addictive than cute little blonde girls... :p
I got the info on line. Moisture in the 92-94 opti spark dist's. is a killer problem. There are several articeles I read on line to cure the problem. The modificatios I made make it vented like the 95/96 models. 95/96 dist's won't fit because of different cam shaft drive.
I read about how the MAP works and it looks like to me that the oxgen sensor should correct for the lean condition since it feeds back air/fuel ratio back to the ECM.

Can you share the source of this information? I for one am truly interested in reading the material.
I will be happy to, let me gather up the info and post it.
This is one of the articles I used to determine my repair.
By Rick Frohnert
You can make the LT1 '92-'94 Optispark setup more reliable than a '95-'96, even with the early distributor configuration. Buy a $12 '96 GM Vette distributor vacuum harness assy. Buy a $4 clear plastic fuel filter. Buy a $3 tube of premium black Permatex RTV, because it withstands the highest temps. Reserve a long day to fiddle around. Here's how it all goes together:
1a) Disassemble and clean the inner and outer cap & rotor assembly with a mild soap like Murphy's, Ivory or equivalent and thoroughly clean off all carbon, soap and dirt residue. Early style top caps must be drilled in a specific spot and at a specific angle to provide venting and a piece of vinyl hose will need glued in the hole. You will have to examine a later style outer cap to see where to drill the hole. It is at 6 o'clock pointing toward the driver's side tire. Use masking tape on drill bit to prevent drilling the small molded spark shield inside. Sorry, I can't describe better. I elected to buy a new early distributor and also a late distributor cap kit. I removed the early upper cap and replaced it with the late upper cap. This was expensive but ideal. You need an odd E5 female Torx socket to remove & install cap.
1b) Buy a new later '95-'96 style cap and rotor assembly. The outer cap that the spark plug wires plug into was revised to provide a vacuum system connector. It WILL fit the earlier distributors perfectly. Problem is, the lower cap assy is different on the early and late distributors and can't be purchased separately. I heard the Pep Boys early cap kit provides the proper early lower cap with a later style upper cap that has a plug in the vacuum hole. That would be ideal.
2) Use a liberal bead of Permatex to seal the lower cap section to the aluminum base, top cap to the lower cap and thoroughly cover the stupid "shrinking" white foam seal around the wiring harness area of the distributor. You may prefer to use a hobby paintbrush to cover seams better.
3) The fuel filter hangs under the dashboard with the inlet end open to the air. The outlet end goes to a piece of vacuum line and feeds thru the firewall or grommet near the upper door hinge into the engine compartment. This hose must feed to one of the three vent holes in the distributor base assy closest to the driver's side by gluing in a piece of thinwall 1/8" vinyl emissions control hose in with the silicone sealer. Form the hose so it routes away from the crankshaft dampener toward the driver's front tire and looping upward with a fairly tight but not kinked radius of about 3". Plug the remaining two holes with the sealer.
This vinyl hose in the distributor base must be routed up the front of the motor between the serpentine belt tensioner and alternator bracket. You will likely need to see a '95 or '96 Vette to see how they squeezed it in there without pinching or wearing a hole in it. It is a real snaked route. You can split rubber vacuum hose and cover the vinyl hose with it to prevent collapsing when you restrain it using plastic tie wraps . It follows the edge of the aluminum accessory bracket all the way up to the intake. This 1/8" vinyl hose in the base gets routed across the top of the motor toward the battery. I drilled aluminum bracket to access door hinge area from battery. You can convert to rubber vacuum hose if you wish and route it through the grommet in the upper driver's door hinge into the dashboard area. You're done with hose #1.
3) Now hose #2. Take the vent hoses from the '96 GM Corvette OEM Vacuum Harness kit and use the one with the two in-line gizmos in it. One in-line device is a one way valve and the other is a flow restrictor. The accompanying bare hose in the GM kit is not used. Remove the plastic cover off the driver's side of the engine intake manifold. You will see a nice vacuum source going to the EGR valve. Install a tee and plumb the modified early cap or stock later distributor cap hole to the intake vacuum source using the '96 hose with the 2 in-line gizmos. Make sure it's installed with the gizmo's near the intake. This hose is routed from the intake down the accessory bracket following the same path. Hose length is critical.
Conclusion: Low humidity air is sucked from under the dash and fed into the distributor aluminum base assy, out of the cap thru the one way valve and restrictor into the intake. This should be bulletproof, far better than the '95-'96 setup that has similarly poor sealing and draws moist air from the air intake assy. You should be able to submerge your ignition now. GOOD LUCK.
'95-'96 cars can benefit from Permatex bead sealing of all distributor cap seals too. Also, moving the vacuum fresh air source from the gray "L" fitting in the Air Intake hose to the cars interior dash area with the fuel filter method as described above will prevent intake hose humidity or rain infiltration from condensing in the distributor cap. This could be a real concern on RAM air modified cars that draw air from a license plate snorkel/scoop or from the positive pressure radiator shroud area.
Optispark repair kit C400 from pep boys is a Borg Warner product that is listed for 92-96's. This kit probably will work fine on 95's or 96's but it needs a little help to fit the early units.
It costs $153 dollars so if you aren't sure you can do this I suggest not trying because you may ruin one of the pieces. The kit gives you a vented cap and rotor, which are ok as is. The inside cover is what is different. The ECM plug is on the new part , but the old unit has the plug already molded and attached to the base. It goes in a notch in the old cover.
This is a source of leaks so the change in design is for the better. It is tempting to use the old inside cover but it may have carbon tracks due to its close proximity to the rotor and may not work when you are done. Carefully cut the plug snout off of the new cover flush with the outside diameter, using a Dremel tool or a small hobby saw. Saw a notch in the new cover working a little at a time until you are satisfied with the fit. Leave a little room for some epoxy. I used Aeropoxy, but JB weld would work fine.
Next you will notice the flange in the center will not clear the photo receptor on the base. Remove a small section of the flange until it just clears. Now clean everything as good as possible and put the unit together. Put a very small amount of Vaseline on JUST the portion of the cap seal directly above the ECM plug so the epoxy won't stick to it. Leave the screws a little loose until the epoxy sets, then tighten them to compress the seal.
What you now have is a hybrid unit that should be better than the original and you can hook up a vacuum vent if you really want to. The new cap has a vacuum fitting but no provisions for flow through so I elected to leave it open as it is on the bottom so nothing can get in. Hooking a direct vacuum didn't seem like a good idea to me but that is up to you.
There is another article, I'll post it asap.

350 chevy engine
can anyone tell me what year 350 engine this is .The water pump that I replaced on it was for a 69-70 corvette . The engine is in a 39 ford . this is the engine number V0905CRX from the block
Hey this is me-1-nut-in-a-monte(OK stupid but I had to say it) Any way I looked up the # in a 75-81 MOTORS book. CRX was a 1975 nova 350.This is the # off the water pump tab.Somtimes they used the same block in many differant years so it could be an earlyer block.I know mine CMJ came in 74-like79.In everything from impala to corvette.Try looking in other old MOTORS books.I dont think chiltons have block#s. This the way I do it to get an idea.
You need to get the number off of the drivers rear bell housing to help narrow it down. Even with that number, they use the same ones over and over and even mix 302, 327, and 350. Heres two websites to help with your search: www.geocities.com/MotorCity/5654/cblkcast.html
Good Luck
[ June 15, 2002: Message edited by: HotRodF100 ]</p>
on the rear of the block there will be a casting number,something like 3970010 then there will be another cast number probably on the right side that will read something like this A 15 6 this is the cast date this one meaning jan 15 1976 or 66 the block cast number will tell decade.The first didget is for months and are alphabetical and GM did not use the letter I the second is for the day it was cast,third is the year,cylinder heads have the same code cast into them,and is located between the valves under the covers,on the heads there is also a secquence number so you can tell how close the heads were when cast(most hipo engines have consecutive secquence numbers,but not always)then there are the cast numbers in which the last 3 didgets usually are used to identify the head..ie: 261s,882s or186s.the numbers you took off the front engine pad says it was made in flint and the CRX could be anything

For five years in a row now, George Barris has been coming from North Hollywood to beautiful downtown Culver City to host the Cruisin' Back to the 50s car show, held in May. From the way this event is growing, we expect it's got a lot more years ahead of it. The Exchange Club of Culver City sponsors the show, with proceeds benefitting local kids' charities, and the city fathers let George shut down a section of the main drag and a few side streets and fill 'em with show cars. Actually George usually brings a handful of his better-know TV and movie cars, and the participants do the rest. This year, approximately 400 musclecars, lowriders, street machines, novelty cars, custom classic pickups, and plenty of rods and customs filled the streets-plus (almost forgot) a row of modified Smart Cars (they're customizing them already folks!). Any leftover space was packed with spectators, vendor booths, and concessions. Thousands came out to see the cars, check out the merchandise, listen to the live music, and, if lucky, get autographs from Butch "Eddie Munster" Patrick, Elvira, and, of course, George himself. The awards, as always, were custom made and plentiful. We'll be back next year.

Grainy black-and-white footage from London's Soho, circa 1950s perhaps, shows a blonde bombshell strip-teasing with flourish. Dull-looking men perched around nightclub tables are watching. Staged for the movie camera, the performance is a wonder to watch in its now outdated formality and statuesque posing.
Bookending this scene are grainy, home-movie shots of villas in an Italianate countryside, suggesting a life of prestige and luxury.
This is The Grand Design, a film by the prolific, Toronto-based filmmaker Midi Onodera, that tells the tale of an old woman who took brazen risks in her youth while seeking a kind of fame which eluded her. It is a dry, short film, likely to go down as one of the most memorable of the 30 short films commissioned by Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto for its 30th anniversary.
The artist-run co-op – like many of the acclaimed filmmakers who have walked through its doors, from experimentalists such as Ms. Onodera to feature directors such as Bruce McDonald and Atom Egoyan – is so treasured within Toronto's film community that it's easy to take it for granted.
LIFT offers equipment rentals, filmmaking classes and a place for filmmakers to meet and feel a sense of community. It played a central role, for instance, in the wave of new narrative filmmaking in Toronto in the 1980s, not only for equipment, but simply as a place for filmmakers to crash. Today, despite the many workshops open to the public and its staff's deep technical knowledge, do-it-yourself is still LIFT's raison d'être.
This week it is hosting three nights of screenings at the Art Gallery of Ontario's Jackman Hall to show commissioned works from the sort of directors die-hard cinematheque habitués namedrop. People like the self-analytical Alan Zweig or avant-garde experimentalists R. Bruce Elder and Mike Hoolboom.
Or Chris Kennedy, who was a programmer for Toronto's Images Festival from 2003-2006 and whose eight-minute short Towards A Vanishing Point is a trip to Mexican pyramids through an abstract filter of lunar landscapes and other starkly juxtaposed images. The mid-century, abstract feel is spot on.
The new commissions are meant to capture the spirit of Super 8, the film stock used for generations of home movies and student film classes. For most, Super 8 harks back to the past, even to an era when filmmaking co-ops like LIFT were pretty much the only way for young or first-time directors to make a film.
The commissioned artists were given no other guidance. Beyond the Super 8 look, the idea is to show where their work is currently at. It's "really a snapshot of where 30 artists are now," said executive director Ben Donoghue.
All the filmmakers have been members or have had some contact with LIFT over the years. Rising rent pushed LIFT out of its old facility near other arts institutions in Liberty Village in 2008 and into its new site at Dupont and Dufferin streets, where it has a larger workshop space and an expanded digital-media lab.
Yet film-based equipment and filmmaking workshops remain a mainstay, as reflected in the 30 films. Mr. Kennedy, for one, is interested in enlarging grainy images in his work (such as the shots in Towards A Vanishing Point of tourists climbing down the pyramids) in ways only possible with film. "For me, it's not really nostalgia," he says. "I mean, I'm in my 30s. So, nostalgia to me would be a VCR."
For Toronto-based Tess Girard, whose five-minute Just Passing Through trains its eye on the details of landscapes, working in Super 8 for the project did feel like old times. "I haven't shot Super 8 since film school," she says. "For me it was a really good opportunity to get back to that more organic look of filmmaking in Super 8."
The same for Mr. Hoolboom, whose eight-minute Forest Walk is a meditation on a stroll with father and son. Known primarily as an experimentalist in video, Super 8 for him got back to his earliest exposure to films as a kid.
With the increasing prevalence of digital tools in filmmaking, Mr. Donoghue says that the co-op now has to cater to our digital times. However, with its cinematic cameras and other film-based filmmaking tools on hand, LIFT has become a rare resource for directors from around the world still working in film.
"Although we are now fully digital – we've supported [high-definition]video for the last few years – we do have some really unique film-based facilities, from optical printers to 14-foot, 4,000-pound animation stands," Mr. Donoghue says.
"As that equipment is becoming rarer internationally, we're seeing not just local filmmakers, but national and international folks travelling to use equipment. Over the last month, we've had a filmmaker here from Seoul, South Korea – we had the closest [optical]printer he could find to do the work he needed to," he adds.
In recent years, film art has moved into gallery installations as much as regular cinema screenings. "So if you go to the Power Plant [gallery]and see a 16-mm projection and loops, or at the AGO or a lot of the TIFF [Bell Lightbox]installations that are on film, that's all equipment we're building, maintaining and installing in galleries," Mr. Donoghue says. LIFT gets roughly half of its funding from public grants and the other half from fees and other self-generated revenue.
Mr. Hoolboom adds that "what's been unusual to see in the last half-dozen, maybe ten, years or more has been the explosion of artists' film and video work in the galleries."
This has made the expertise of filmmakers and technicians using LIFT all the more important. "It's a knowledge that's passing away," Mr. Hoolboom adds. But as seen in the commissioned work, it's a format that still very present.
30 x 30: Three Nights of Films for 30 Years of Filmmaking is a three-night series of shorts running Jan. 19 - Jan. 21, 8 p.m., at the AGO's Jackman Hall, 317 Dundas St. W. Admission is $8.Report Typo/Error

Discover a hidden treasure hailed as one of the best whitewater rivers in the Eastern U.S. or take a relaxing float trip, listen to music and watch playboaters in action during the River of the Year Celebration!
A full day of on-shore and off-shore festivities are planned for the Stonycreek River of the Year Celebration on June 16 based around Johnstown's Greenhouse Park.
The Stonycreek won the statewide River of the Year contest based on restoring a fishery to the Stonycreek, recognition of the Stony as one of the five best whitewater rivers in the Eastern United States, and the installation of a valve in Quemahoning Dam to release water at the whopping rate of 500 cubic feet per second to improve the boating on many weekends. Pennsylvania Environmental Council is proud to support the River of the Year effort as part of the Laurel Highlands Conservation Landscape Initiative.
The June 16 activities include the outfitted whitewater sojourn from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. A river dedication and official program will be held at noon. Whitewater rafting and leisurely float trips are available Saturday and Sunday, June 16 and 17, through Coal Tubin', and if enough water is available, one option will be to float to Downtown Johnstown and stay for the official dedication and inaugural concert at Peoples Natural Gas Park, with Tab Bonoit as the headliner.
On shore at Greenhouse Park, there will be music, displays about area conservation efforts and the opportunity to watch in-river action, including a freestyle whitewater rodeo from 2 to 4:30 p.m. and a Playboater X competition from 4:30 to 6 p.m. SurfSUP Paddleboarding will provide demonstrations and lessons for riding waves while standing up from 12:30 to 4 p.m.
Music will be happening throughout the day. From 2 to 5 p.m., the Whiskey River Panhandlers from Johnstwn will play acoustic Americana, folk, bluegrass and blues; from 5 to 8, the South Side Strays fromo Johnstown will perform an eclectic blend of jam, rock and blues; and from 8 to 11, the Halftime String Band, an Americana-Bluegrass-Jam Band from Morgantown, WV, will perform.
Camping will be available at Greenhouse Park (adjacent to Whitewater Park), and water will also be released from the Que on Sunday, June 17.
Two other exciting river events are happening within a month of the river celebration:
- May 18 and 19 is the Stonycreek Rendezvous. Whitewater rafting will be available both days. The first 100 people to register through the Benscreek Canoe Club website for an outfitted whitewater trip will receive a 50% discount. Once the discounted slots are sold, people can still do an outfitted raft trip by contacting Coal Tubin' of Johnstown and Wilderness Voyagers of Ohiopyle. Leisurely float trips from Greenhouse Park to the city also are available through Coal Tubin'. On May 19, the event also features a silent auction, a downriver canoe race, outfitting vendors, music, as well as food and beverages. Camping available. Visit the Benscreek Canoe Club website for more information: benscreekcanoeclub.com.
- May 31 to June 3 is the Kiski-Conemaugh River Sojourn will be held. Kayaks are available to registrants on the first three days. May 31 is a paddle through Conemaugh Gap, June 1 is a paddle through Packsaddle Gap and June 2 on the lower Conemaugh and onto the Kiski River around Saltsburg. June 3 is a whitewater day on the Stonycreek with outfitting available. Contact: firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Stonycreek promoters will be planning more river activity over the summer, including activity during the AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival on Aug. 3-5 to cross-promote the music and outdoor activities and better showcase Johnstown.
Stonycreek River of the Year Celebration is sponsored or supported by the Stonycreek Quemahoning Initiative, Benscreek Canoe Club, Laurel Highlands Visitors Bureau, Somerset County Tourism Program, state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Pennsylvania Organization for Watershed & Rivers, Stonycreek-Conemaugh River Improvement Project, Lift Johnstown and Pennsylvania Environmental Council.

First third of the 12th century
Wood, tempera
104 x 69
The most Orthodox and revered icon in medieval Russia, "Our Lady of Vladimir" was brought from Constantinople in the early 12th century; it was destined to become the holy of holies of the Russian state. The icon was kept in Vyshgorod, near Kiev. But it became especially revere not in Kiev but in Vladimir, where the icon was sent in 1155 by Prince Andrei Bogoliubsky. The splendid white-stone church the Assumption of the Virgin was especially built to house the icon of "Our Lady of Vladimir". On 26 August (8 September in the New Style calendar) 1395, during the attack by Tamerlane, the icon was solemnly transferred to Moscow and on this day Tamerlane retreated and left the territory of Muscovy. After this the image was returned to Vladimir, but in 1480 it was again taken to the great Moscow church of the Assumption, where it remained till 1918. The Greek name of this iconographic type – Eleus – can be translated literally as "showing mercy". In medieval Russia this type of iconography was called "Umilenie – Tender Affection", which corresponds more closely to the imagery: the Child's cheek is tenderly pressed up against Our Lady's face; he embraces her with his left hand, and Our Lady holds the Child with her right hand, leaning her head towards him. A characteristic feature of this iconography is that the left foot of the Child is bent in such a way that His heel is seen. The icon is drawn on two sides. On the obverse there is a depiction of the "Throne of the Second Coming (Еtimasia)". The painting on the obverse evokes controversy to this day: some date it to the 15th century, others to the 19th century

Does The Shrinking Money Supply Spell Trouble?Christopher Farrell
The size of the shift out of bank deposits and certificates of deposit into other investments is stunning he rumblings of economic strength are there, but so is the unsettling evidence of mounting weakness. Auto sales are stalling, and layoffs are picking up. Banks aren't lending, and battered Citicorp has eliminated its dividend. Most worrisome to some economists is the striking slump in the nation's money supply. A broad measure of money called M2, which includes everything from checking-account balances to $100,000 certificates of deposit, has been shrinking at a 1% annualized rate over the past three months, vs. the 7% average growth rate of the past five upturns in the business cycle.
Some economists -- including Michael J. Boskin, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers -- worry that the shrinking money supply could be signaling anemic growth. Others are even more pessimistic, arguing that "this very slow money growth could drag the economy back down into a recessionary environment," in the words of John B. Trammell, economist at A. Gary Shilling & Co. Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan, who insists that the recovery will soon pick up steam, calls the relationship between M2 and gross national product "one of the most enduring in our financial system." So is it time for businesses and consumers to brace for the recession's second coming? Probably not. "Structural financial changes account for much of the weakness in M2," says Stephen Slifer, economist at Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc. The traditional relationship between M2 and GNP doesn't hold anymore. Right now, the money supply is sending out false economic signals, agrees Robert Giordano, director of economic research at Goldman, Sachs & Co.
OUT OF SYNC. This recession has been anything but typical, and that explains why the money supply and the economy are no longer moving in lockstep. In the past, the economy sank after a sharp rise in inflation forced the Fed to push interest rates higher. The tight money cooled off inflation but took the economy down as well. This time the economy was brought down by the financial excesses of the 1980s, not by tight Fed policy. Those excesses produced a commercial real estate glut, a shaky banking system, and a bankrupt thrift industry.
So the fall in M2 is a phony sign of impending economic disaster. What is happening is that consumers are pulling their money out of the troubled banking system (counted in M2) and switching it into bonds and stocks (not counted in M2). And more businesses are financing their activities outside the banking system, too. "We're in uncharted waters," says Jerry Jordan, economist at First Interstate Bancorp.
Indeed, Fed easing itself may be largely responsible for sluggish M2 growth. In trying to spark a recovery, the Fed has lowered the federal funds rate nine times over the past nine months -- to 5.25% from 7.5%. Other short-term rates have followed, especially the rates banks and thrifts pay on their certificates of deposit. Thus, investors are moving money out of CDs paying a measly 5% and seeking higher returns in bond and stock investments. The result: M2 growth shrivels.
The size of the shift out of bank deposits and into other investments is stunning. In September, the net inflow into bond funds reached $90 billion at an annual rate, a good part of that coming out of the banking system. The inflow could swell even further as some economists estimate that $100 billion in CDs under $100,000 mature in October. The lower short-term interest rates go, the more funds could flow out of bank deposits and into the markets, further shrinking the money supply.
MALLS AND OFFICES. The collapse of the thrift industry has also led to the decline in M2. When the government takes over failed thrifts, these troubled institutions usually lose depositors. But Resolution Trust Corp., the overseer of the thrift bailout, needs funds to finance all the shopping malls, office buildings, and securities it inherited from the thrifts. To make up the funding shortfall, Resolution Trust raises money by selling government-backed bonds, which are not included in the money supply. "Replacing the private deposits with Treasury debt will shrink M2," says Lyle E. Gramley, chief economist of the Mortgage Bankers Assn. and a former Fed governor.
Add it all together, and a more robust money picture emerges. The thrift bailout and net inflows into bond mutual funds account for almost all the shortfall in M2 over the past several months, according to calculations by Goldman's Giordano. By his arithmetic, "adjusted M2" has been growing by at least a 6% annual rate over the past six months--near the top of the Fed's target band of 2.5% to 6.5% growth. By contrast, unadjusted M2 has been crawling along at a feeble 2% rate.
To be sure, the economy may need more stimulus to get it moving faster. But the decision to lower interest rates should come from what is happening to the real world of housing, employment, incomes, and inflation, and not from the M2 money supply. That measure is far too suspect to serve as a guide for Washington's policymakers.

With its tempting shopping malls, vibrant beaches, cutting edge bars, and great architecture, holidays to Miami will have you hooked...
Holidays in Miami start the minute you step off the plane at Miami International Airport (MIA) and into the heat of the USA's southernmost resort.
The city on Biscayne Bay is crammed with attractions for visitors and it's a pleasure to simply wander around and savour the unique flavours of this city. South Beach (SoBe) is the place to see and be seen in a huge number of cool bars and restaurants.

Flash the plastic at the shopping malls, take a break in beautiful Bayfront Park, entertain the kids at Miami Zoo, or enjoy the architecture of the Italian Renaissance Vizcaya property in Coconut Grove. Or simply take to the white sands of Miami's beaches and soak up the sun.
Miami holidays offer adventures outside of the city too, as some major Florida attractions lie within easy reach of the southern city.
The subtropical wetlands known as the Everglades are an hour away from Miami. Visitors enjoy airboat rides in the swampy land in an attempt to spot Florida's crocodiles and alligators.
The Florida Keys, around 1,700 islands dotted off the southern tip of the state, draw lots of holidaymakers who are seeking the peace and quiet of island life.
Fort Lauderdale is also easily accessible from Miami. There's a more relaxed feel here for holidaymakers and plenty of great beaches. And, of course, the entertainment hot spot Orlando is only a four-hour drive away from the city.

Passaic County Sheriff primary elections 2013
Party favorite Frank Feenan, a retired investigator, captured the GOP candidacy for Passaic County sheriff Tuesday, beating out primary challenger and fellow former lawman Pat Ciser.
Feenan won a victory by an almost 2-1 margin, getting 5,792 of the votes, according to unofficial results that showed 96 percent of precincts reporting. Ciser received 3,052 votes.
Feenan now faces Democratic first-term incumbent Richard Berdnik in the fall. Feenan said Tuesday night that he looked forward to "spirited" debates with the sheriff over a department that he claimed was inefficient and low in morale.
"The next step is trying to right the ship," said Feenan, 51, of Woodland Park.
Both Feenan and Ciser hyped decades-long law enforcement resumes during the campaign. Feenan, an ex-captain in the county Prosecutor's Office, commanded a 130-member team as part of the intelligence and counter-terrorism unit. Ciser was a Clifton police lieutenant who ran the department's narcotics unit that seized more than 30 kilos of cocaine.
But that's where the campaign similarities ended.
Where Feenan's camp issued press releases on endorsements from a national Latino police organization, a state senator and a county sheriff, Ciser depended on support through social media, door canvassing and even a public interview alongside the mayor of Paterson – the largest Democratic stronghold in the county.
"I gave it a good shot but it just wasn't enough to overcome those brain-dead people who just vote the line," said Ciser, 57, of Wayne. "Its shows you power and money will get you elected."
The primary battle for the sheriff's seat began when Ciser, failing to get the county Republican organization's endorsement, splintered off to run a grassroots, YouTube-led, campaign that relentlessly tried to portray Feenan as out of touch with true Republicans. The lifelong Republican often pointed out, correctly, that Feenhan only switched from being a Democrat last year.
The message didn't resonate enough Tuesday, however. And now Feenan's Democratic history – along with riding the coattails of Governor Christie's reelection bid – could come in handy in drawing out the votes when he takes on Berdnik in November.
"He has roots and friends in both parties," said John Traier, the county's GOP chairman. "That will definitely add to his appeal in general (election)."

Accepted: 7 June 2016
In this paper, we prove controllability results for some linear and semilinear systems where we find two parabolic PDEs and one elliptic PDE and we act through one locally supported in space scalar control. The arguments rely on a careful analysis of the linear case and an application of an inverse function theorem. The facts that we act through a single scalar control and one of the PDEs has no time derivative are the main novelties and introduce several nontrivial difficulties.

Re: Reputation based IPS/IDS - Cisco's tested

Some of you may remember our discussion back in November, 2008 about
using reputation services in IPS. (search for subject line "Email
reputation for inout to IDSs?" if you want to read it).
From the article:
"This basic use of reputation filters isn't new, but what's interesting
is that Cisco will use this reputation data to change the Risk Rating of
security events identified by the IPS. In other words, an event linked
to a 'bad' IP address will result in an even higher Risk Rating."
Isn't this backwards? The risk to a system of an attack coming from an
known attacker compared to an unknown attacker is the same. Matter the
fact, I'd like to argue the opposite. Since the known attacker has
already been identified (and can be blocked), the Risk Rating of the
alert for that address should be lower. Unknown attackers should receive
a high Risk Rating so they stand out and can be addressed first (like
that laptop in the article's example).
Now, I understand that the *assurance* of the alert is higher, since the
attacker has already been verified as hostile, so the likelihood of a
false positive from that address is lower. But I think classifying the
known attackers as high risk so the user focuses on those first is a
misguided step in the wrong direction. I can already envision the
evasion scenario: Flood your target with SQL injections attacks through
known open proxies (so they receive a high Risk Rating), and slip in the
real attack from an unknown IP (classified now as ... not-so-high risk).
Which would you be more concerned about?
IP intelligence within the IDS console is of course of great benefit.
(we've been doing this for years. Then again, we've been using IP
reputation and blocking known evil IP's in a distributed fashion for
years as well...). Any IP intel for the analyst in the console is a good
thing. I'm just not sure that *interpreting* that IP intel on behalf of
the analyst is the right thing to do.
It is said that the Internet is a public utility. As such, it is best
compared to a sewer. A big, fat pipe with a bunch of crap sloshing
against your ports.

Originally posted on isportsweb.com | Last updated 8/4/13
Jacksonville Jaguars WR Ace Sanders With the first official preseason game set to get underway later this evening in Canton, Ohio football season is just around the corner. The Jacksonville Jaguars open up their preseason action August 9th, against the Miami Dolphins and there will be many things to watch for. In my mind, there are five keys to the Jags first action of the 2013 season. 5. Can the Jags rush the quarterback? The Jaguars are known around the NFL as a team that can't sack the quarterback. In 2012, the Jags ranked dead last in the league in sacks with a measly 20. The Raiders, who were 31st, still finished with 5 more at 25. With a line that couldn't possibly get any worse, it does look improved coming into this season. A healthy Jeremy Mincey and Jason Babin will provide veteran leadership and experience, but don't expect to see these guys play much next week. Against the Dolphins you will see a rotation of guys at the defensive tackle position which is still unsure through training camp. Another thing to watch will be 4th year player Tyson Alualu who will be transitioning from DT to DE. 4. Will the Jags be able to protect the quarterback? Switching over from defensive to offensive line, much is still in question to how the Jags will line up. The tackles look to be set, with veteran Eugene Monroe guarding the left side, and rookie Luke Joeckel guarding right. At center, Brad Meester will be out there again in his 14th season. However, at guard the Jags have some options, and it all begins with the two men who didn't play a snap all last season. Uche Nwaneri and Will Rackley should start, but it will be interesting to see who the Jags rotate in next week. It will not only be key to see the line block for the quarterbacks, but create holes for the backs as well. 3. How will the Jags use Denard Robinson and Ace Sanders? In the 4th and 5th round of this year's draft the Jaguars drafted two speedsters set to improve a struggling and lack luster offense of a year ago. Sanders has already shown flashes of his return game through training camp, and will look to do the same against the Dolphins. With Robinson, look for the Jags to show glimpses of a wildcat package that will be used often come the regular season. Regardless of how there used, these two rookies will bring firepower to the offense. 2. Will we see the Maurice Jones-Drew of old? After an injury filled 2012 season, and an off-season of uncertainty, Drew is said to be 100 percent and ready to go. Being the first pre-season game don't expect to see the star running back for more than a series or two. Jaguar fans everywhere will look to see if Drew can show speed, agility and the ability to attack defenders as he did 2 years ago. No. 32 will once again be back on the field, and we'll get to see a glimpse of what he's got left in the tank. 1. Who will shine at quarterback? It is no secret the Jags currently have an intense battle at quarterback brewing. The youngster Blaine Gabbert and veteran Chad Henne will each get their turns with the first team offense next week, and they both intend to put on a show. It will be good to see who connects with the receivers and who looks most comfortable leading the offense. Starting next Friday, both QB's will have 4 games to prove why they should start week 1 under center, and they will not only have to win over the coaches and teammates but Jaguar fans as well.
