SOWELL (CHARLES) CEMETERY, south of Williamsport near Duck River), MAURY COUNTY TENNESSEE
Location: From Williamsport, go south on Cross Bridges Rd. (shown as the Jimmy Gray Robinson Rd here) for one mile and enter road on right that leads to Sowell-Russell place, now (1987) owned by Mr. Jimmy Russell. The house was built by the great-grandfather of Mr. Russell. The cemetery is in the field just behind air strip on top of the hill.
This map shows the big picture of all the roads needed to get to the Charles Sowell Cemetery. It is marked by a red check.
I believe the cemetery can be found and maybe pointed out by the above yellow pointers. That is a private residence nearby. The dark winding tree lined bar is the Duck River.

Dash lights out, any ideas?
My dash lights suddenly stopped working, I checked the fuses behind the glove box, all are fine. played with the headlight knob...
Just looking for a starting point before I rip everything apart and make an 8 hour project out of something that 'could' be simple.
My headlight switch is jacked, I have discovered that if I turn the knob like I am dimming the display it will turn off the dash lights altogether. Mine will only work on full bright or it turns them off. Doesn't bother me enough to buy a new switch. Give the knob a twist, it's free!!!
play'd with the dimmer knob, nothing...
any other thoughts before I start tearing apart my dash?
I would start with the headlight switch, they do all kinds of stupid stuff. Clean the contacts and whatnot.
Any updates? My dash lights went out. Fuses are good. Replaced headlight switch with anew oem switch and still nothing...please help....lol
do you have a volt meter?

Feb 5, 2013 at 1:52 am #1298870
Mentioned in the OR thread. Just thought I'd point out that its now available. I have the 7L daypack version and the vest strap system gives quite good stability. Just wish they sold it in a size L. Not as important without a hipbelt, but still matters. Strap system also works brilliantly for climbing FWIW. No shoulder rubbing when reaching high.

ive never had any issues with my 26$ MEC bullet packs … or the BD ones … and those are about the same weight with 400D+ material
120$ for what is basically a bullet pack with 100D material?Feb 5, 2013 at 11:22 pm #1951262
Eric, I'm glad you found a cheap and durable pack.
The MH pack is a lot different than a bullet pack.Feb 6, 2013 at 8:36 am #1951330

To be fair, it's available on backorder. Hope it actually appears soon.
Pricey compared to packs with totally different specs, reasonable compared to the only competition (Ult Dir PB vest). Hope it fits non-short people. The Summitrocket 30 would be great if the one size fit larger than a 17" torso.Feb 6, 2013 at 8:47 am #1951335

Doesn't seem to be all that useful as a niche; I think everything in this price range that is similar looks better to me, like the ones from Salomon. This seems closer to the Camelbaks and Patagonia Compressor bags in the $40-80 range.May 14, 2013 at 6:43 am #1985974

Really cool pack. Vests are SO much more stable/comfortable if you don't need a hipbelt for weight transfer.
If they made this with the removable Hardwave framesheet and/or in a 30 liter version, I'd buy one. Hardwave Framesheet, so it doesn't turn into a tube when stuffed full. 30 Liters because I'd like one for overnights – though I might be able to cram into a 20L. I've been able to cram a stoveless overnight into a 12L bag before.May 15, 2013 at 6:19 pm #1986562
I have their (appears to now be discontinued) Fluid 6 pack that has the same vest harness- very comfy and carries nicely- ie no bounce while running
I've been looking for a running pack that would be suitable for overnights- I've found this to be a very narrow niche that appears to be currently unfilled
the UD signature line is rumored to be adding a 20-25 liter packMay 16, 2013 at 12:07 am #1986663
I ordered one to try on, and as i feared it was a little too short (I'm 6'2"). Other than that, the vest straps and compression system make a great fastpacking design. I'd probably get one if they came in size L.May 16, 2013 at 2:10 am #1986674

Neat concept but is it really better than an MLD Newt at 170 grams?May 16, 2013 at 9:12 am #1986762
'better' depends on you use. For hiking, it wont make a big difference but the whole point of this pack is to provide a stable ride while moving fast. The strap system is way different than something like a newt.May 16, 2013 at 9:35 am #1986771

Serge, do you have any estimate for what size torso the pack would fit? Thanks.May 16, 2013 at 10:58 pm #1986983
you could probably make it work even if you're my height considering you don't need to transfer the weight to your hips. The issue that I was having was with a full multi-day load, there was too much weight balanced on my upper back. Its not a thick pack, but ideally if the pack were a little longer and thinner, than the weight would be kept closer to the length of my back. It'd probably fit pretty well if you're around 5'10" and shorter, but worth trying on even if you're taller. May suit you just fine.

I'm wondering if anyone knows answers to these questions:
1. At every local competition, there is one video company that does the "official" videos for the competition. Is this company hired by the rink, club, etc.? or are they independent?
2. Is it legal to use your own video camera to videotape your skater (local competitions only--not regional/sectional/national)?
3. Is it legal to video tape another skater and sell the video to the family?
4. Is it possible to have 2 or more video companies at a competition? Are there areas where there are more than one video company competing at a competition?

This Tax Trap Can Snag The SavvyMike Mcnamee
You did a bang-up job of tax planning in 1997. You exercised your incentive stock options (ISOs) instead of taxable nonqualified options. You sped up some expenses in your sideline business to create a net operating loss. You even prepaid state taxes on last year's big capital gains, so you could get that deduction onto your '97 return. So why does your accountant look so glum?
It seems that you overlooked something--the alternative minimum tax. While you were trimming the tab on your Form 1040, you were creating new liabilities for the AMT. The windfall from the ISOs will boost your minimum tax, and those business losses won't lower it. You've wasted a deduction as well, because your state tax payment can't reduce your AMT. And once the tax year is over, there's not much your accountant can do to get you out of the AMT. "The biggest problem with the AMT is spotting it in advance," says Andrew Biebl, a CPA in New Ulm, Minn.
The AMT is a parallel code designed to ensure that even the most creative tax-avoider antes up. The AMT taxes so-called preference items that are left off Form 1040, such as the gain from exercising ISOs and interest from some tax-exempt bonds. It imposes stricter accounting rules, slowing the rate at which you can deduct depreciation and research expenses. And it bars taxpayers from using personal exemptions, the standard deduction, and most itemized deductions. Instead, AMT taxpayers get a flat $45,000 exemption for couples ($33,750 for singles) that shrinks when income is above $150,000 ($112,500 for singles). Against this expanded tax base, the AMT levies two rates--26% and 28%. If that calculation yields a higher tax than the bottom line of the regular Form 1040, you pay the AMT total.
The AMT can bite even middle-income taxpayers. Heirs who take large capital gains or middle managers exercising stock options can find themselves lost in the thickets of Form 6251. A more insidious bite comes through personal credits--for the elderly, adoption, and dependent care, as well as the new child and education credits--which are capped by the AMT. Take a couple with $70,000 in wages and five kids: They'd qualify for $2,000 in savings from the new child credit, but the AMT will cap their credit at just $893, accountants Deloitte & Touche calculate. And "they're probably not even going to know they're in the AMT until they get a penalty notice," says Deloitte partner Clint Stretch.
That said, the AMT is mainly a problem for those at the top of the income range. For them, the curse isn't just the added cost--it's the way the minimum levy upsets standard tax planning, canceling deductions for such things as unreimbursed employee expenses and medical costs.
Fortunately, you can avoid the AMT trap by taking your tax planning to a new level. Tax software can keep tabs on AMT consequences of investment and business choices. If your projections show that you're headed toward an AMT bill, you can adjust course to avoid or minimize the levy.
WIPEOUT. Once you're in the AMT, you can even benefit from it. Say you expect to owe a big chunk of AMT for 1998 but think you'll avoid it in 1999. It might make sense to rush a yearend bonus so it will be taxed at '98's AMT rate of 28% rather than '99's regular tax rate of 39.6%, say tax-advice purveyors Practioners Publishing Co.
Not all AMT hits are equally painful. Itemized deductions wiped out in an AMT year are lost forever. But taxes on ISO gains, depreciation, and some other expenses can be recovered. Take ISOs: If you exercise a $50 option when the shares are at $80, you'll pay no regular tax on the profit. But if you're in an AMT year, you'll owe tax on a $30 gain. The benefit of paying: When you later sell the shares for $100, your cost basis is $80 and your taxable gain is only $20. Such items can be used to accrue a minimum-tax credit to offset future regular taxes. "Some preference items cause a prepayment of taxes rather than a permanent increase," says CPA Bernard Kent, Midwest director of personal finance for Coopers & Lybrand.
That's great--if you can handle the complexity and take the long view on your taxes. If you can't, even with a computer's help, you're better off with an adviser who can. In the realm of the AMT, tax planning isn't a job for the faint-hearted.

If you don't have a dining room in your home, don't despair. In fact, many people who have an actual dining room find that they rarely use them. It's actually quite easy to add dining room space in an existing living room. In fact, if you already have a dining room, you might decide to repurpose it for another use, adding a dining area to your living room instead to save space.
Assessing the Living Room Area
Take a good look at your living room area. Are there any spots within it that seem especially well-suited to the addition of a table and chairs? An area against the wall is often perfect for a dining area. If you're extremely tight on space, you could even push the table right up against the wall. A long narrow table pushed against the wall can seat four people easily - one on each end and two against the long side. You could even keep two extra chairs on hand, moving the table out from the wall if necessary when you need to seat six. Placing a table in a corner can also work well, especially with a round table. When used in this fashion, the table doesn't seem to stick out into the room as much, which will help blend it into the overall look of the living room. A standard round table often provides comfortable seating for four. If you occasionally need to seat six, look for a table with a removable leaf.
Choosing Furniture Pieces
When adding a dining area to the living room, keep your table and chairs on the small side. Oversized tables and chairs are great, but they can take up too much room in the living room. Choosing a table style that will allow the chairs to be pushed under the table are also a good choice, since less floor space will be taken up when the table isn't in use.
Incorporating the Dining Area into the Living Room
There are some tricks you can use to visually blend the dining area into the living room, while still giving the look of being a separate space. Choosing dining room furniture made from the same color wood as the living room furniture can be appealing. Adding an area rug under the table can also help to visually segregate the dining space. If the table is against a wall, adding a high shelf to the wall over the table can have a nice visual appeal. A hanging light over the table will add to the look, plus provide adequate light for dining. If possible, use a dimmer switch on the light, so that you can adjust the level of light to suit the overall mood of the dinner.
A table runner usually looks more attractive and streamlined, compared to a full tablecloth. When not in use, display a vase of fresh flowers on the table as a centerpiece, which will add a natural touch of beauty to the room. Once you've added a dining area to your living room, you'll probably find that you use it all the time.

Original Title: Coverboy in Today's Roll Call REVEALED!
WOW… Less than two weeks into our groundbreaking campaign, we've already gotten fantastic coverage! Be sure to pick up today's copy of ROLL CALL, where you can read the phenomenal article by Mary Ann Akers. Akers, author of Roll Call's HEARD ON THE HILL COLUMN won't print the coverboy's identity, but that wont stop BLOGActive from giving you ALL the details.
Jonathan Tolman, a senior staffer for Senator James (I refuse to hire gay people) Inhofe, was Coverboy Confidential in the May 2001 issue of Metro Weekly, Washington, DC's premiere lesbian and gay magazine.
A little history here folks: Jonathan Tolman's career has been spent working for organizations and politicians that have not exactly been seen as supportive of the gay community. He worked on the staff of the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), a right wing think tank.
What does he do now: Well, Jonathan Tolman was hired by Sen. James Inhofe who according to today's Roll Call, ran a campaign of "God, gays and guns," and has put in force a policy that he refuses to hire gay people in his Senate Office. Sen. Inhofe has no problem hiring gay people to do committee work….Just don't ask him to have to look at gay people in his own office. Huh?

Supermodel Heidi Klum was recently reported to have insured her legs for $2 million. The likes of Ms Klum, whose livelihoods depend on having perfect pins, might find it easier than the average consumer to decide what their priorities are when it comes to the often confusing world of insurance.
When you can buy policies that offer to pay out on every circumstance, from it raining on your wedding day through to being gazumped when buying a property (unlikely in this falling market), being investigated by the Inland Revenue, needing major dental work or contracting a serious disease, it can be difficult to work out if we really need the various products being foisted upon us by salespeople.
Insurance, whether it is compulsory, such as on the car, or more niche (such as models' legs), has much in common with gambling: the house (the insurance company) always wins more than it loses (that is, the cost of payouts/claims does not outweigh the level of stakes/ premiums being paid by punters) and you are never guaranteed to recoup what you pay in.
Richard Mason, sales director at financial comparison website moneysupermarket.com, says: 'There are very few instances where insurance is worth having. You are buying cover from experts who are almost positive the event you are insuring against is not going to happen to you. That's why they will cover you. Our view is you only should buy cover for the disaster situation.'
Insurance can be broken down into three broad areas. Malcolm Tarling of the Association of British Insurers, says: 'There are compul sory insurances, such as motor, and most mortgage lenders insist that you have home insurance. Then there are personal products, such as travel and private medical insurance, then life insurance and other products which might involve turning to expert independent advice.'
Looking at personal products, some niche insurances appear to be enjoying an increasingly high profile - pet insurance, for example - with more providers jumping on the bandwagon. These prey on the fear that your beloved animal will sustain a serious injury or illness which you cannot afford to pay for and, faced with the prospect of financial ruin or letting their pet go, many animal-loving Brits would choose ruin.
However, some feel that pet insurance represents good value. 'Many insurers do not make a huge amount on these policies and they really can offer piece of mind should your pet become ill or injured or cause damage to someone else's property, for example,' Mason says.
But is the cost of premiums over the lifetime of the pet markedly lower than what it might cost to start an emergency savings pot for calamities? If the answer is yes, look carefully at what is covered: different policies have endless ways of capping how much they will pay out and in what circumstances. Also, remember that most policies do not cover routine costs such as vaccinations and certain medicines.
When looking across the range of personal insurance products, it is possible to identify more widely held products that are of questionable use. For example, some experts feel that the range of policies covering debts, including credit cards, personal loans and overdrafts should only be bought by those of a very nervous disposition and with deep pockets. Typically, these policies are supposed to cover your repayments if you cannot meet them should you lose your income because of an accident, being ill, or through unemployment. However, most only typically pay out if you have been out of work for several months, and the premiums are often disproportionate.
'Also, don't forget that you actually have to borrow more to buy this insurance as the cost of premiums is added to the loans upfront,' Mason warns. 'I believe that companies charge however much they think they can get away with, and many buyers take up the cover unwittingly. These sorts of products are the biggest financial scandal of the day.'
Card protection policies are typically charged at up to around 10p for every £100 you owe per month. Standalone policies are much more competitive, but are really only for those who fear that their job is under serious threat.
So what really keeps us awake at night and therefore warrants at least a consideration of the insurance policies available? For most people, the prospect of being unable to work through getting a serious illness, dying unexpectedly and leaving loved ones high and dry, or losing their homes because they cannot meet mortgage repayments lead to most nail-biting.
Nick Bamford, managing director of independent financial adviser Informed Choice, says: 'When asking yourself whether you need these sorts of policies, the answer will involve looking at how big the peril is and if your finances could be arranged in such a way to cope with it should it happen. If the answer is that they can't, you ought to consider some kind of protection.'
Once you have decided on your priorities, the path to finding the right insurance fit can be fraught with difficulties, even when those needs appear relatively straightforward.
The first thing to establish with the likes of life, critical illness and income protection and mortgage payment protection is that your employer does not already provide you with these kinds of benefits. If you do not have such a strong package, then know the market when shopping around. Life insurance pays out a lump sum if you die at any time, whereas term assurance pays out if you die within a pre-defined period and offers cheaper rates.Also, rates have come down over the past few years, so if you have not checked the market recently, you could well be able to switch to a better deal elsewhere.
Critical illness policies can pay out a much-needed tax-free lump sum should you be struck by a life-threatening illness, but recent research by Which? indicated that some advisers resort to cynical shock tactics to sell them. One told an undercover researcher that his cousin had just developed breast cancer, another mentioned he was attending a funeral later that day for a 42-year-old who had died of leukaemia.
'Be very wary about the way certain salespeople use statistics,' Bamford says. 'It is true to say that one in three people will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime, but what are the chances of a 27-year-old getting it?'
Turning to mortgage payment protection insurance, the average cost is now about £4.95 per £100 of mortgage payment, according to the Council of Mortgage Lenders. Most policies will not start to pay out until a month after you are unable to pay your mortgage and the payouts may only last for a year.
Policies do not normally pay out for illness due to pre-existing medical conditions, and you will also be denied cover if the insurer thinks that you expected to lose your job. All things considered, such insurance does not look particularly attractive in terms of the level of security it offers.
Never forget that the house always wins, but if you need insurance for peace of mind, be as cynical as some of those who sell the products: ask exhaustive questions about exactly what you are covered for and scour the market for the best possible deal for your circumstances.
How to work out if you should buy cover:
· What am I actually protected from? For example, will I receive a payout if I am diagnosed with cancer, or just specific kinds?
· Will someone else pay for this safety net, such as my employer?
· What are the scenarios in my life which feel most threatening? For example, leaving my family high and dry if I die without life insurance.
· Can I arrange my financial affairs in such a way that can mitigate the effects of threatening situations without wasting money on insurance?
· If I feel I have to buy insurance, how do I get the best deal?

Seeing MyselfbyGoldeniangel©
She's beautiful
dark eyed, with long lashes
passion in every feature
sex written on her face
in her movements
sliding through her body
built for sex
built to be wild and rough
not demure
but teasing
pale skin like cream
little bow-shaped lips
ready for kisses
ready for moaning
hair that flows
long and sultry, so dark
so elusive
put your hands in it
pull her to you
hold her close
as eyes close in ecstacy
how can I see this?
See it, taste it, touch it,
KNOW it...
And still not be able to see myself.

We are the first ones in the park in order to catch the lemurs in the early morning, but we have no luck for the first 45 minutes. Not until we run into another group of hikers do we start seeing any action. When it rains, it pours... and we see a whole bunch of lemurs (brown, golden, and Indiri Indiri) in one small section of the national forest.
Speaking of rain, the skies are undecided and there seems to be a constant change of weather as light sprinkles turn on and off throughout the trek. The hike is a solid four hours and we see all sorts of birds, chameleons, frogs, fish, spiders, butterflies, and a myriad of flowers and plants.
I'm easily a foot and then some clear of Mr. Florent and Fidy so I get a much better view of the various spider webs that seem to be situated exclusively above 5'0" and below 6'4"!
Hiking through the thicket makes us all tired and we find a cute little restaurant/roadside stand to eat at. I order the river trout and get exactly that. The fish comes out and looks like it was just caught a few minutes earlier and thrown on the grill. Working to debone the fish makes me hungrier than ever and I devour my meal as if I hadn't eaten in days. I taste Mr. Florent's meal, and then he tells me that it is river eel (also freshly caught) at which point I contemplate being disgusted, but it was too good for that. A glass of vanilla rum later (Mr. Florent insisted on us having the local spirits) and we headed back to Andasibe to try and find the elusive bamboo lemurs. The rain subsided and we found four bamboo lemurs (the smallest species - less than 2 lbs) within minutes of entering the park.
After a pit stop (and much needed shower) at the hotel, I head out on a solo hike to find an island dubbed "Lemur Island" where the lemurs are plentiful and accustomed to humans, although still wild.
I actually got nervous at one point that they would swarm me and rip away my bag to find more food! The experience is very similar to that of the Lion Park in that I get to interact with the animals and am fascinated by them. Their hands and feet feel exactly like those of a little kid. Their eyes are constantly wide open and although they don't appear to be smart, you can tell they are based on the way they beg for food like Buddy would.
At dinner I meet the first really white person I've seen since arriving. He's Danish traveler who reveals that he travels for his J-O-B! He works for Thomas Cook as a travel arranger or something. Basically he gets paid to travel to exotic locales and set up tours for people from Scandinavia... I could totally do that! I should do that!!!

UT-Vanderbilt Post-Game Quotes
ACTING TENNESSEE HEAD COACH Tony Jones
"To come back from 17 down to win that game shows the character of this team. I talked to the team about how enough is enough. Enough is enough. You're a talented basketball team with talented players and you're coming up short. Enough is enough. I had a few choice words for them. They responded. They came out and played Tennessee basketball.
"It was an unbelievable crowd with 21,000 in the house, Dickie V (Dick Vitale) in the house, College GameDay in the house. Our fans showed the type of fans they are, no question the best in the country. They proved that today.
"We shot 49 percent in the second half. I told the team it was an aberration shooting 20 percent in the first half. Guys were just so pumped and jacked up before the game. I was kind of afraid of that on the offensive end. Defensively, I thought we gave the effort except for a couple of runouts they got in transition. We didn't identify with John Jenkins early on the floor. He was a key problem for us. But I knew we would make shots the way guys were pumped up. Scotty (Hopson), who might be one of the best athletes in the country, misses a dunk. Then they went on, one of the coaches told me, what might have been a 15-2 run. I don't know what it was.
"Obviously, Brian Williams was huge for us, especially in the second half with eight offensive rebounds. He scored the basketball. I got mad at Brian in the first half because we called a play for him, to give the ball to him in the low block to try and get (Festus) Ezeli in foul trouble and he passed it out. Subsequently, he takes a short jump shot. That was unacceptable and I let him know. He responded to the challenge in the second half.
"Skylar McBee came up huge for us. We need him. We know what type of dimension he can be for us as coaches, and that's the reason he's continuing to play. We're not giving up on him, and this particular day he came up big with 10 points and three steals.
"We didn't have to make very many adjustments defensively. I was happy with Vandy shooting 37 percent in the first half with however many dunks. That's a formula to win basketball games. If Vandy scores 60 points, we're going to beat them. I just told them to relax. We did some things offensively. We tried to spread the floor a little bit more. I knew we were going to make shots; they knew we were going to make shots. I told them to just relax. Forget that Dickie V is here or College GameDay is here or a national audience is watching. They did a good job of coming out in the second half.
"I told them I was happy for them and how they responded. Our goal is to win an SEC championship and to be 0-3, I don't know if that could have happened. I told them that your head coach, Bruce Pearl, would be extremely happy watching the game at his home because you exemplified his skills of having a never-say-die approach. And I told them get ready for the Georgia Bulldogs on Tuesday.
"One thing I also told the team is the reason we won that basketball game is because we cut that deficit to 10 at halftime. Seventeen would have been tougher to come back from. When we cut it to 10, it was manageable. We came out with a lot of spirit in the second half and made some field goals."
"It was a tough game. We did not do what we needed to do. We did not take care of the ball and we didn't rebound in the second half. We had a couple of bad breaks there at the end, but there is not much you can do about it.
On Tennessee's second-half aggressiveness: "I thought they were trying to do that in the first half, we just did a better job guarding it. I thought that was their intent the entire game. In the second half, they got us in transition and we had some breakdowns. We weren't as good with our assignments in the second half as we could have been, and they took advantage of it.
On Scotty Hopson: "He just made some plays. There were times we broke down or somebody got caught in transition where he really had no resistance.
On the final 10 minutes: "I am not really sure about that. We didn't finish the job and that is really disappointing. It's becoming a little bit of a common theme."

Hi Everyone
I noticed a question re: things to do when. I too am very new and could use some help. I was told that one of the Bee publications contained an actual schedule of events for a normal year. Does anyone know where that may be found?? This will be my first year and I am busy building hives and frames. A local queen breeder has agreed to sell me two nucs with queens and has helped me greatly. Its great belonging to an organization(Mountain Beekeepers Assoc of Georgia).

Pirates Out of the Mix For Beltran?
Beltran's value depends on whether the Mets want better prospects or lower payroll.
Buster Olney had two interesting updates regarding the Pittsburgh Pirates today. The first update discussed their reluctance to deal away "major assets":
Rival officials view the Pirates' approach to the trade deadline as very, very careful. Lots of indications PITT isn't trading major assets.
Olney also provided this update on the Carlos Beltran market:
Source:Carlos Beltran trade talks down to five serious teams, which includes BOS, SF, PHI, ATL, TEX. CLE, PIT basically out of conversation.
Olney goes on to mention that Atlanta is a front runner for Beltran, and mentions Mike Minor as part of their group of pitching prospects that could appeal to New York. To put that in perspective, Minor wa...

starter issues
Hello there I am new to the sight so please bear with me. I recently swapped out my automatic in my 83 gmc sierra classic to a muncie 4 speed that I took out of an 83 gmc sierra. Both have 350 crate motors. I've got the tranni installed but when I try to start it the starter dosen't fully engage the flywheel and it chatters. My battery is fine and I am using a charger/booster just to make sure. I've tried about every combination of shims, didnt help. The motor will turn over by hand fine so its not an engine issue. I am using the starter that came out of the donor truck which is also the same as the starter in my truck. The flywheel came of a gmc van and is 268 tooth count which is the same as both trucks. My truck has an external balance and the donor truck has an internal balance camshaft. Hence the vans flywheel which matched up!! I'm stumpped!! My mechanic friend is getting me the starter out of the van just to see if its different but I don't think it is. Hopping for some thoughts. Thanks!!!!!

Keith Jarrett, 'Scandal' and salmon: 6 things to do this week
Here comes the rain again, as Annie Lennox once sang. (Youngsters: She and Dave Stewart sold oh, about 75 million records as the Eurythmics.) No need to feel soggy; here are some things to do — Earshot, good TV, Margaret Atwood and classical music — in between dodging drops.
1 Keith Jarrett/Earshot Jazz Festival
8 p.m. Tuesday at Benaroya Hall, Seattle; $30-$125, seattlesymphony.org
Earshot continues through Nov. 17 at various venues, earshot.org
The 25th annual Earshot Jazz Festival stretches to seven weeks this year, and opens with a bang: the creative pianist Keith Jarrett will appear with Gary Peacock (bass) and Jack DeJohnette (drums). Jarrett played on Miles Davis' seminal 1969 "Bitches Brew" album, and went on to become known for his spontaneous solo piano concerts.
2 'Scandal' returns
10 p.m. Thursday, ABC
This involving drama returns for a third season and finds the gladiators at Pope & Associates, led by queen fixer Olivia Pope, coping with last season's big revelation. Keep this in mind, "Scandal" fans: ABC plans a split-season schedule for their dramas for 2013-14, meaning "Scandal" will go on winter hiatus through the holidays and January 2014, then will return in February.
3 Margaret Atwood
7:30 p.m. Friday, Town Hall Seattle, $5
The acclaimed Canadian author of novels, what she calls "speculative" fiction and essays discusses the conclusion to her dystopian trilogy, "MaddAddam." (The first two were "Oryx and Crake" and "The Year of the Flood.") You can read a review of "MaddAddam" here.
4 Seattle Symphony
7:30 p.m. Thursday, 8 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Oct. 6, Benaroya Hall, 200 University St., Seattle; $19-$112, seattlesymphony.org
Guest conductor Thomas Dausgaard leads the orchestra through Schubert's magnificent Symphony No. 9 in C major (called "The Great" for good reason) and Beethoven's splendid Triple Concerto, with Alina Pogostkina (violin), Andreas Brantelid (cello) and Christian Ihle Hadland (piano) as soloists. Those three may not be household names, but it's hard to go wrong with a program like this.
5 Issaquah Salmon Festival
10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday-Sunday, downtown Issaquah, salmondays.org
Celebrate friends with fins, starting with a parade at 10 a.m. Saturday on Gilman Boulevard; the two-day fest continues with salmon-hatchery exhibits, arts-and-crafts vendors, kids' area, music and entertainment on five stages. And, lace up your shoes: The Run With The Fishes 5K starts 9 a.m. Saturday.
6 AXIS Dance Company
8 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, Meany Hall, University of Washington, Seattle; $39-$44, uwworldseries.org
The Oakland-based dance troupe, composed of performers both with and without disabilities, makes its Seattle debut. Expect precarious wheelchair balancing and acrobatic derring-do.

Xperia X1 phone: Pricey and overloaded with options
November 30, 2008 by admin
Filed under Mobile Phones, News
What kind of smart phone can $800 buy?The luxe Xperia X1 from Sony Ericsson.
At this price, it probably appeals only to recession-resistant gadget lovers, but it says something about what some gadget makers think consumers would want if money were no object.
In this instance, what you get is more sleek sheath than intelligent innards. Its glut of options makes it pokey and difficult to navigate.
Out of the box, the device is pure eye candy, with a black or silver metal-and-plastic body, crisp 3-inch touch screen and slightly curved QWERTY keyboard that slides out smoothly with a satisfying click. The X1 has minimal included memory, so you'll need a sizable microSD card if you want to access lots of songs, videos and photos on it; a 4 gigabyte card was used during testing, which was enough for plenty of content.
But even before it was turned on, the whopping number of choices to be made would make many nervous. One would be more confused about the phone's operations than excited about the freedom to use it as one pleases.
When the phone went on sale recently at Sony Style stores and on the Sony Style Web site, it came unlocked, providing access to a variety of carriers. In the United States, you can slide in a SIM card for AT&T or T-Mobile and it should work with their 3G networks.
Then, there was the assortment of 11 buttons on the X1's face, including a center button that can select items or work as an optical joystick, which scrolls with a finger swipe.
Beyond the button bounty, you can navigate the X1 by tapping its screen with your finger or with a stylus. The stylus was often the best way to go, as the device's many options are often presented in small text that is difficult to accurately jab at with an index finger.
The X1 uses Windows Mobile 6.1 as its operating system, but Sony Ericsson developed a variety of customized enhancements that run on top of it. Most notable is the stylish panel interface, which consists of up to nine small rectangles you can customize and use to view different applications or media on the device in different ways.
The panel idea is cool, and it's a nice way to differentiate the X1 from the slew of touch-screen phones that have been released this year, since each rectangle leads to a variety of options instead of just a single application. Panels were used for conducting Google searches, listening to the built-in FM radio and checking out the songs and videos that were stored on the X1.
However, the panel interface still sits atop Windows Mobile, which offers its own methods for listening to tunes or watching videos. It's hard to understand why anyone would want so many options.
That said, the inclusion of Windows Mobile does mean that if you're familiar with it, you won't have much trouble navigating the X1 once you find and click the "Start" tab in the upper right corner of one of the panels. Business users can synchronize the phone with their PCs and get e-mail from their Microsoft Outlook account pushed straight to the phone – something that can make it difficult to switch to a more consumer-friendly phone like the iPhone or the G1, which uses Google Inc.'s Android operating system.
And there are several cool features on the X1. Though the iPhone has a larger screen, the X1's touch screen sports a sharper resolution. As such, videos look quite good, and it was fun to watch some clips of "The Simpsons." You can also stream some content from the Internet, such as videos from YouTube, and adjust video sizes to make lesser-quality clips look more palatable.
The X1 also has a standard headphone jack, which is becoming increasingly common on smart phones and makes a big difference to music fans like myself.
Surfing the Web is easy on the X1, and, as with videos, online content looks very good on the screen. The phone includes the Internet Explorer Mobile and Opera Mobile browsers, and having more than one option here is appreciated.
The built-in 3.2-megapixel camera takes good photos and can also be used for videos. Phone calls sounded impressively clear – for $800, they'd better – and if you can find a friend whose phone also supports it, there is a video calling option.
Still, some issues with the X1 often overshadowed the fun. Many times it seemed fairly slow to open applications or complete actions, displaying the multicolored Windows while it processed the request. Even without slowdowns, it usually took several steps to complete a simple action.
The X1 is a gorgeous device. But even if you can afford it, dealing with its overabundance of choices would, in the words of Dewey Finn from "School of Rock," test your head and your mind and your brain, too.
Xperia X1 at a glance
WHAT IT IS: The $800 Xperia X1 smart phone from Sony Ericsson.
WHAT IT DOES: It has a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, sharp 3-inch touch screen and a long list of features that includes Web surfing and video recording. It uses Microsoft Corp.'s Windows Mobile 6.1 as its operating system and has customized enhancements developed by Sony Ericsson.
THE BOTTOM LINE: You may have fun watching YouTube videos, making calls and listening to music on the X1, but its steep price tag puts it out of reach for many gadget fans. And its overabundance of options makes
it somewhat slow and hard to navigate.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Things seem to be getting worse and worse for the Red Sox lately. After a brutal 15-inning affair, the Sox were left with another string of goose eggs Saturdayin a 5-0 loss to the Yankees. The Yanks scored a run in each of the third, sixth, and seventh innings, before a two-run home run by Derek Jeter in the bottom of the eight sealed the deal.
The trouble began in the first, when Kevin Youkilis, starting in left field in place of the injured Jason Bay, dropped a fly ball and was given a fielding error as a result; he would fail to reach a similar ball in the fifth. Alex Rodriguez in the first inning thought he was hit by a pitch, though the umpire ruled it had just passed over him and called the pitch a foul ball after it hit A-Rod's bat.
CC Sabathia pitched a gem to take the third game of the series from Boston, tossing 7.2 innings of scoreless, two hit baseball. Surprisingly, Clay Buchholz performed pretty well (especially for him) going six innings and giving up two runs on six hits. Unfortunately, his improvement wasn't enough.
It was simply another lackluster night for the entire Red Sox roster.
For the second night in a row, the Red Sox bats were held scoreless. They've been so quiet lately, I keep thinking I'll see some tumbleweed blow across the field at any moment.
"I wouldn't mind a brawl; maybe it would spark about five guys to hit and the rest can take the suspension ." – LolliniBosoxFan on mlb.com, likely speaking about the heated pitching and warnings from the umpire tonight not to retaliate.
W: CC Sabathia (12-7)
L: Clay Buchholz (1-2)
Tags: CC Sabathia, Clay Buchholz, New York Yankees, Red Sox

CCRF Explores Nashville
Posted by firstname.lastname@example.com on Monday, October 28, 2013 in Uncategorized.
CCRF students were encouraged to attend an artistic or cultural event recently that was within the Nashville community (outside of Vanderbilt). Check out their experiences below:
"For my art event, I went to watch the classical ballet performance Giselle, which was part of the Nashville Dance Theatre's Ballet in the Park series. I thought that sitting in the eerie park at night and watching dancers in white frilly tutus leap across the stage was breathtaking. The park provided the perfect backdrop for the dramatic, emotional choreography, and it was definitely something that could not be reproduced indoors. This event helped me respect even more not just the beauty of ballet, but also the amazing dancers, who are not only athletes, but also artists." – Darwin Ferng
"I had the opportunity to attend the Tennessee Association of Craft Artists (TACA) craft fair at Centennial Park during the last weekend of September. Artists from Tennessee and several other states presented their works made from various media, including jewelry, textiles, clay, photography, and woodwork. I was fascinated by the innovative and diverse display of pieces and appreciate TACA's commitment to develop an artistic community in Nashville and elsewhere and to share the talents of crafters as well as the art of crafts." – Lia Sacks
"I went to the Nashville Symphony's Free Day of Music at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center. They had an event scheduled for every hour from 10 am to 9 pm. Each event was at a different part of the complex. Some were in the main hall, others were in the courtyard, and some were on the plaza at the main entrance. The fourth floor was dedicated to children playing on various instruments for the first time. I went with a friend for a short while. We watched Austin Peay State University's choir sing and toured the center, visiting every floor, and the courtyard. It was really relaxing and enjoyable. It was fun to see so many people enjoying the same thing and see the role that the Nashville Symphony plays in the Nashville community." – Elizabeth Coleman

So you've implemented a dynamic, and innovative rewards package in your workplace. But what about communicating this to your employees? Are they aware of the true value of their total reward solutions package? The benefits of doing this are far reaching, from increased employee engagement and take up, to staff retention and morale. We offer a consultancy service specifically designed to help you communicate why you're such a great company to work for. Contact us to find out more.
Another option is to implement total reward statements, which are a fantastic educational tool for your employees. They highlight to each individual their cash and non-cash benefit entitlement, and bring together the total value of their full remuneration package (rather than pure basic salary). Delivered in a clear, concise and engaging way through our Bigblue platform, total reward statements work as the first step in your benefit communication, or to reinforce your benefits strategy throughout the year.
Find out how our consultancy service and total reward statements can invigorate your benefits package today, by contacting us at firstname.lastname@example.com or speak to one of our friendly staff by calling 0344 573 0033.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) ----- Robert Vaden scored 25 points to continue his hot streak and lead UAB to a 70-42 victory over Alabama State.
Vaden had scored 33, 23 and 27 points in the three games leading up to Alabama State. He scorched the Hornets for 16 points in the first half and finished with seven 3-pointers.
Chief Kickingstallionsims, a reserve center, had 11 points and 11 rebounds to lead Alabama State in both categories.
UAB (10-5) jumped to a 15-5 lead as Vaden hit two early 3-pointers and Frank Holmes scored five points around the basket.
Alabama State (4-6) pulled to within three at 15-12. But UAB closed the half with a 14-3 run to take a 37-19 lead at intermission.
Vaden drilled three 3-pointers early in the second half to help UAB lead by as many as 30 points.
Reserve forward Howard Crawford scored eight points and Lawrence Kinnard grabbed 12 rebounds for UAB.
Wednesday's game was the final non-conference game of the season for the Blazers, who will open their Conference USA schedule against Tulane on Jan. 9 in New Orleans.

I have had socks stuck in the pant leg.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I have had socks stuck in the pant leg.
the older I get, the more likely that could be me!!
Now i am paranoid!

My son came home from high school years ago upset with me because he was sitting in class and noticed a dryer sheet hanging out of his jeans.
We gave a couch to friends of my daughter and she was vaccuuming and noticed a sliver of pink sticking out. It was a pair of little girl's panties size 12. If I didn't have 2 daughters, I would've been worried!
A time to tear, And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;
I looked everywhere for my silk long sleeved undershirt one morning.....It was stuck inside my sweater sleeve. I didn't find it till I was undressing that evening! Someone must have noticed the lump it caused on the back of my arm, but no one said anything!
Blessed Be
That sounds like something that would happen to me!
Many years ago, my brother borrowed a big hair clip from me to pin his hair from his face when he went to wash. Later, on the bus to work, he happened to pass his hand over his hair and, horror of horrors, he discovered he had forgotten to remove the bright-coloured pin from his head!! Hahaha!!
A few years ago, after using the ladies' room at a restaurant, I accidentally tucked my bias cut skirt into the back of my panty hose. I paraded all around the restaurant looking for my friend, when a lady tapped me on the shoulder and said my skirt was up in back. Holy moly! Was I ever embarrassed. My friend has never let me forget it either. Funny stuff we can laugh about now.
The West Wing had an episode about this topic - accidentally dropping a pair of panties at a very inopportune time and place. It must be a common occurrence!
Peckish aka Peggi
Oh my - I've had that happen with jeans. Usually I notice before I get out of the house! Glad to see I'm not alone!

We will be making this project at my class tomorrow morning. My friend and fellow demonstrator, Lorrene, taught us how to make these candy boxes at our Creative Ink meeting last month. (that's our local demonstrator group) It is made with the amazingly versatile petite purse die. Lorrene's version used the Frankenstein head stamp from the monster munchies set, with brads sticking out of his head. It was great! I wanted to showcase some of the fun halloween things you can make with the owl punch, so I used that to make the ghost and bat. Aren't the new googly eyes cute, too?!! The stamp is from the mixed medley hostess set in the holiday catalog.
Happy crafting!
