Bucking in gear at idle
This has been buggin me since I first started driving the car.
At first, I thought I had a u-joint angle issue that was causing this.
(and I still might) vibration @ about 70mph. Put in an adjustable upper control arm to change the pinion angle a bit, but vibration is still there.
At 70 in 5th gear (vibration @ speed --not RPM) I grab the shifter at the bottom, near the boot----no vibes at all :confused: . Now I'm thinking tires.
So something else is buggin me as well. I have not been able to get even 10" of vacuum at idle, since day one of installing this engine. (GMPP 454 HO). And I have read from other people that they are getting up to 20" on this same motor. I cannot find any leaks on the engine on the outside---perhaps there is one on the inside??
Would this make the car "buck" at idle in gear??? This thing has a violent lurching at idle. Once power is applied it goes away. None of my other manual trannys have ever done this to this extreme. Even the 79 chev with a 454 moves pretty smooth even in granny at idle.
Initial timing is at about 8*, the engine idles smoothly enough when just hangin' out, but as soon as the clutch is engaged, it is just like your 10 yr old is trying to get your attention by jerking the rocking chair.
Could a bad joint angle cause this???? Or is there something else a bit skewed somewhere. The car drives okay, and is not high strung at all in traffic----except when I want to idle in gear.
About the vibration, ever think of having the tires rebalanced? My car did the same thing until I got the tires rebalanced. Could be a slightly shifted weight. Or all your weights might be on the inside only to make you rims look better etc. You cant do this I tryed and the guy at my local garage said that you have to put weight on the outside or they will always shake some. Compremise looks for no shake?
As for the bucking, my old car did that lol. I found out later it was a crack in the vaccum hose on the bottom side {barely noticeable}. Hope this helps!
PS: Thanks for trying to help with my balencer issue, still not solved penetrating oil is doing its thing as we speak. :sweat:
As for the low vacuum and the bucking idle it does sound like a vacuum leak.
If the leak is on the bottom side of the intake it sometimes doesn`t give much clues, I used to have a 350 that had a severly warped intake that leaked like rip and it never smoked, it`s only clue was a off idle stumble. Pull your carb and look in the intake plenum, if you see oil it has a leak. The vortec engine I put together last had a intake leak and it smoked like no tomorrow, but it still had good vacuum, no throttle stumbles, and no idle issues so it threw me off, it pulled 18 in vacuum, but the gauge did fluctuate at idle but not severly, it was pulling in the oil to the extent that it was acting as a seal so it didn`t show many signs, when I pulled the carb and looked in the plenum oil was everywhere.
Re-adjust the valves, they may be a little tight.
Non-adjustable valves
new GM Crate.
Next week-end I guess I will pull some plugs for a looksee and inspect the inside of the manifold.
Only 2500 miles on this thing----been happening from day one :pain:
Elelbrock 1411 carb--------6lb pressure
And come to think of it-------idle mixture screws don't do too much untill screwed all the way in.--------tail pipes are black too.
There is like ZERO hesitation when I romp on it.
Doc here, :pimp:
If you run out of Simple checks..
Pull the inspection Cover from the clutch, and if you can get any sight on them, inspect the pressure plate springs for a cracked spring.
Had a similar problem on a 56 Vette with a Close Ratio 3 Speed and highway gears years ago..used to eat up springs and disc's like crazy..did the same thing just before the disc let go.
Doc :pimp:
How about a carrier bearing or out of balance driveshaft causing the vibration?
Doc---with the inspection cover off---all that is visible is the engine side of the flywheel----diaphram clutch anyway
Blazin---the shaft has been balanced twice----carrier was replaced at the second balancing due to a faulty bearing (bearing and rubber fell out of carrier) The new bearing is noisless now.

Today, Check Point Software Technologies, one of the old guard in the world of information security, announced they are purchasing Nokia's security appliance business. This is welcome, if late, news to Check Point's customers who use Nokia hardware. For many years, Nokia was the de facto hardware platform for deploying Check Point firewall software. Check Point/Nokia shops have been struggling for months to decide how to respond to Nokia's announcement that they would rid themselves of this troublesome (think non cell phone) business. For customers with sometimes hundreds of Nokia appliances, the fear of potentially unsupported hardware, or of a big firewall replacement project, were equally disturbing.
This new agreement spawns a couple of interesting questions:

If I had to choose between working out alone or working out in a group, I choose sitting on the couch. All jokes aside, I usually go for group fitness. Why? Because it's more challenging than any routine I can come up with on my own.
Aside from feeling like you're in a flash mob, here are my top five reasons for choosing a group atmosphere in the gym:
1. The music
Like your tunes remixed with a heart-thumping beat? Yeah, me neither. But let me tell you, it gets the job done. Nothing gets me going like trying to keep up with the beat of an even faster version of today's poppy pop songs.
2. The mirror
Here is the one place where staring longingly at yourself in a mirror is encouraged. Because, really, it's the only way to know if your back is perfectly parallel to the floor, and your leg is wrapped 360 degrees around your head, and your arm is bent over your back far enough to touch the floor. And if you can see yourself in the mirror then others can see you too. Talk about a nice dose of self-conscious motivation.
3. The workout
When left to my own devices, I know I fail to push myself as much as I can and should. But when I enter a group fitness class, I know I will be pushed to the limit. And because instructors don't know the fitness level of each person, I always find they teach the toughest moves along with easier modifications for those who need them. I usually try to tackle the most strenuous variation, and my muscles thank me later for the effort.
4. The competition
I don't think I'm alone on this one: I often find myself "competing" with fellow group fitness buffs when I workout in a group class. Of course, we're not literally fighting toward any sort of finish line, but the fact that we're all performing the same moves in the same space has to stimulate some sort of fitness contest. And I always find I work harder when I'm fully surrounded. Which is why I always try to plant myself right in the middle of the action, preferably near the instructor. I know that's the intimidating spot, but whenever I wedge myself into the back corner of the room, my workout inevitably turns sluggish and unenthusiastic.
5. The teamwork
If the instructor can somehow work in some feelings of solidarity, then all the better. When I need to rely on others — and vice versa — to accomplish a common goal, I find I work that much harder.
Case in point: The other week I was in a class where we all assumed the plank position. After a minute or so, the instructor announced, "Eight more seconds." But there was a catch: The eight-second countdown would not commence until every person was in the plank position. So you fell into one of two groups:
A. The person holding the damn position, staring around the room, staring down those who had given up; or
B. The person who had given up and was being shamed into planking again.
And it worked. After about 20 seconds of a silent, but palpable battle, we were all in the plank, the eight seconds were over, and we all fell to our guts.
Evil and effective.

Is he already used to open sights? If not it's a good idea to get him used to them. Somethings are easier to learn while young.
Well went to the range with the Wife and my oldest boy today. Just me and the boy shot today as the wife was having issues with leaving him 5 feet from us on the other side of the window as we shot? dont ask? So anyway me and Jr. got to shoot our rifles for a bit. I was shooting my mini14target and my son (he's 8 ) was shooting his rossi combo set. I mounted a cheapo BSA 4x scope on his .22 barrel. He did well for his first time using a scope, and only his second time shooting his .22lr. He also got to take a shot with dads mini 14 today off of my bench rest. He needs to work a little on keeping the gun steady, but was not doing to bad. here is a pic of his target he shot from the 40 foot line.

Tried customer service???????? again today. Got some dude that couldn't speak english. Bad enough they can't help you with info, you can't understand them on top of it. Yup press one for english and still not understand em. Only in America. By the way, go to gun manuals on google and there are a few sites . Got what I was looking for ,no thanx to Rossi. That'll teach me. Should of gotten the H&R..........

From the Editor's Desk
Perhaps Mayor Mike Bloomberg's defining moment with less than a year to go in the 2005 mayoral election was seen in a candidate's forum at Harlem's Canaan Baptist Church last week.
"Fifty years ago, Rosa Parks stood up and said enough, and she made a difference," the mayor said to the mostly black audience. "We had Shirley Chislom who made a difference, and we have Al Sharpton, who makes a difference – in all fairness."
Al Sharpton compared favorably to Rosa Parks, the woman who arguably began the civil rights movement in the south when she refused to sit in the back of the bus? I don't think so, and while many of those in the audience cheered the mayor, a number of others looked at each other and wondered what the mayor had been smoking.
Republican Thomas Ognibene, who may run against Bloomberg in the party primary, when told the comment, said, "If that it true, then I belong in the same sentence with Abraham Lincoln."
Fernando Ferrer, the Hispanic ex-borough president of the Bronx, was even more succinct.
"If King were alive, he'd be asking, have we all gone mad," Ferrer said.
Mayor Mike, facing reelection to his second term, has gone from stand-offish business tycoon to a man for all seasons – and all neighborhoods. While the first term focused heavily on Manhattan under the theory that what was good for Manhattan was good for the other four boroughs as well (if, in fact, he was cognizant of the fact that there were four other boroughs) to the exclusion of all of us in the "outer boroughs." I guess that this is the New York City version of the famous Republican "trickle down theory," that posits if you give all the wealth to the rich who produce goods, the good times will eventually trickle down to the little guys who buy those goods.
It never worked in economics and it certainly won't work in city governance.
Bloomberg, however, seems to be getting the word that he has to do more for the "other four." In fact, one television pundit said that the mayor ordered the Department of Sanitation Commissioner to focus on the other four during last weekend's snow story, obviously remembering what happened to John Lindsay thirty years ago when Manhattan's streets were quickly cleared during a like blizzard while Queens and the other outer boroughs waited for four days to see a plow.
How does the election shake down? It is a little early to tell, with ten months to go, but let's take a look at the early line.
Republican Primary:
Thomas Ognibene wants to run against Bloomberg because he is convinced that the mayor is not really a Republican. That point, in fact, was made strongly by Ognibene and others at a recent party summit in Rockaway. If Ognibene can get the Conservative line in the upcoming election, he might just challenge Bloomberg for the party slot or in the November general election. In any case, Ognibene running as a Conservative could realistically take votes away from Bloomberg if he does win the Republican nod once again.
Remember that Bloomberg only won by 40,000 votes in 2001. That could erode quickly if Ognibene gets the Conservative line.
In addition, Bloomberg has few allies in the Republican camp. He has angered many by his lackluster support for the party's national ticket in last year's election and for his "liberal-leaning" activities as mayor. Many other New Yorkers are angry with him for his smoking ban, his ticket blitz and his failure to address the needs of the common man. There are even many city workers who look to defeat Bloomberg because of his failure to come up with contracts. Last, but not least, there are legions who see through his school governance plan and will vote against him simply because he has made the system worse, not better despite anything the scores show.
It is clear that up to now, Bloomberg has disdained the few Republicans in the city, believing that they had no choice but to vote for him or a liberal Democrat. Ognibene could quickly change that perception.
At this point, I would make Bloomberg 2-1 in the Republican primary against Ognibene, with the challenger coming in at 12-1.
Should Ognibene get the Conservative line, however, the primary will not matter very much to the challenger.
As with every election in the past century, the fun lies in the Democratic Primary, where it's hail, hail, the gang's all here.
Let's see if I can come up with a working list: There's Freddy Ferrer (the ex-Bronx Borough President), C. Virginia Fields (the present Manhattan Borough President), Anthony Weiner (the Congressman who represents much of Rockaway), Gifford Miller (the City Council Speaker) and Charles Barron (the ex-Black Panther City Councilman). There may be others hiding in the woodpile, but for now, that's what we got.
Bloomberg would love Miller to win the primary, because he is so much like the mayor that he might well be a clone – he has Manhattan Liberal Establishment written all over him and Miller cares as little for the outer boroughs as Bloomberg does in off-election years.
Personally, I don't think that Miller has the legs to win either the primary or the election and I told him so the last time he was in Rockaway.
He is too much like Koch and Dinkins in his political beliefs and city residents have repudiated politicians of that ilk over and over again the past ten years.
Make Gifford Miller 18-1 in the primary and out of the running in the general election.
Freddy Ferrer seems to be the leading candidate in the primary, and he can certainly bring the Hispanic vote. In 1997, he went too far to the right trying to distance himself from the Liberal template. In 2001, he went the other way and might have well been a Dinkins clone. Neither worked for him very well, so he will probably move to the middle in this election. I don't think it will help, although his ethnic identification in a city that is becoming more and more Hispanic will help. Mark him 7-1 in the primary and 10-1 in the general election.
Anthony Weiner would be the toughest candidate for Bloomberg to beat in the general election and he would have lots of strength in the same planes that Bloomberg has his strength. He is bright and hard-working although he does not always keep his promises to the community (the pool at Riis Park, planes over Belle Harbor, etc.). He can hurt the mayor in Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island, but probably will be weak in minority communities. The question remains, can he win the primary against Miller and Ferrer. If Miller fades, however, as I expect he will do as people get to know him, then it comes down to a moderate to liberal Jewish candidate against a who-knows-what Hispanic candidate and anything can happen.
Mark Weiner 7-1 in the primary and 3-1 in the general election if he gets that far. If he wins the primary and Ognibene is in the race as a Conservative, then Weiner can take it all.
C Virginia Field is a long-shot. Mark her 20-1 in the primary and out of the money in the general election although she may well get some of the women's vote.
Charles Barron is a anti-Semitic Black Power lunatic who deserves no time in this space. He would just as soon all the white people in New York go away somewhere. Mark him out of the running in any election. My favorite scenario would be a win by Weiner in the Democratic primary, a win by Bloomberg in the Republican primary and Ognibene running as a Conservative. That makes a wide-open election and anything can happen. And, it will.

No. The PS3 interface works and thats what we need. Unless SONY is 9000% sure that the new interface will work as or better than the XMB then we don't need it. The last thing we need is a PSN-store-app bugged-like PS3 interface. Furthermore, the PS4 is around the corner. We need SONY to be all hands on the PS4 and really polish it with luxury of details. I care more about that than a new PS3 interface.
Re: PS3 needs a new interface
It's obviously not as fancy as the 360 dashboard and when i first started using the xmb i was confused on how to navigate it, but i was confused on the 360 dashboard as well.
but if you read up on the new ps4 you'll see tons of reasons why it'll be better than the new xbox. (mainly info/hardware specs leaked from developers on both sides.
Now that it's pretty much a guarntee that ps4 will impove the interface and add cross platform party/private chat this ps4 is gonna be a monster with it's GDDR5 8GB RAM OMG!!

Re: PS3 needs a new interface
the XMB is awesome. And it doesnt block visibility to the background image. When i buy a dynamic theme i expect nothing to obsctuct my vision. XMB does it right. Hopefully SONY reconsider the option to have it on PS4 or allow it as a second option for people who wants to switch back to it. More power to Sony for adding extra customization, and more power to us for being able to choose what we want.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Very nice!! I think our trift stores have caught on to the sewing machine craze because I never find any...not even fabric. :(
I knew you had to be from Alabama. LOL. My favorite thrift store is in Pell City and always stop when we are traveling back and forth from Florida to Michigan. I have found some great buys and even an old 99 Singer for $6.88!! This thrift store even has a senior day every week.
Great buy!!
She needed to be adopted.
Lucky you. I can remeber when these were the bee's knees. :lol:
I know what you mean, goosepoint. I'm always a day late and a dollar short. Haha :)Originally Posted by goosepoint
Great find. And, at that price, it was almost free!!
Wow! Extremely similar to my old 9410 and my mom's 6234 from 1990. I wonder if my leftover bobbins, 1/4" "Littlefoot" and acrylic insert for my Horn table would fit it. I purchased those separately, so I didn't hand them in when I traded my machine in, thinking my mom might use them. But I her better machines instead :) I've been looking for a home for them. PM me if you are interested.
Thrift stores seem to be the in thing. Good for you!
Wow that's really cheap for such a machine. I bought an old singer #368 with a cabinet for $10 at an estate sale in Ohio

Oil Ministry seeks diesel price hike of Rs 5 per litre
Petroleum Minister Veerappa Moily conceded that a basket of proposals to stop wastage of fuel had been sent to the government.
New Delhi: After taking a U-turn over keeping petrol pumps shut from 8 pm to 8 am to conserve fuel, Petroleum Minister Veerappa Moily on Monday indicated that his ministry has proposed a diesel price hike of Rs 5 per litre.
While speaking to IBN18 Editor-in-Chief Rajdeep Sardesai, Moily said there has been no proposal to limit the timing of petrol pumps but conceded that a basket of proposals to stop wastage of fuel had been sent to the government.
"That's not my proposal, I don't know from where these proposals have come. People must be coining out ideas, that doesn't mean we have initiated the proposal, we have not conceived any such proposal," Moily said.
He said the government will announce austerity measures on September 16. "There is no proposal at all, there is no question of backtracking. We are working on mega conservative measures, which will be launched on 16th. We are working on that but this proposal is not before us," he said.
When asked why he raised the issue of closing petrol pumps in the night, he said, "I referred to it as one of the ideas floated by people. I never said this is a part of our proposal."
Moily also said the Oil Ministry is currently in a position to provide 24-hour supply of petrol every day all over the country. "We are not in a crisis, I am in a position to provide 24-hour oil in every corner and economy will not be effected. We are in a position to manage things," Moily said.
Earlier on Monday, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Finance Minister P Chidambaram reportedly rejected the proposal of keeping petrol pumps open only from 8 am to 8 pm. Reacting to the proposal, Chidambaram said, "It's not a government suggestion but one which had come from the public as the Oil Minister has himself clarified. Should the government close itself to the public's suggestions?"
This came after the government faced criticism over the Oil Ministry's proposal. Petroleum Minister Veerappa Moily was on the backfoot after his suggestion of having petrol pumps open for 12 hours in a day.
There was uproar in Parliament over Moily's proposal in view of the ongoing economic crisis. The Trinamool Congress and the Samajwadi Party staged a walkout while the BJP said that Moily should have taken the House into confidence as Parliament is in session.
Moily said that the idea to keep petrol pumps open from 8 am to 8 pm was not the government's idea but had come from the public. He went on to say that the ministry has not taken any decision yet and no decision will be taken to keep petrol pumps dry in any part of the country.
BJP leader Yashwant Sinha dismissed the suggestions and said it will worsen the economic situation. "Why is the government making such suggestions? This will only worsen the situation in the country. I strongly oppose the suggestion," Sinha said.
The Left Front, too, condemned the idea. "This decision is preposterous. This is like a pre-economic emergency crisis. We condemn this. The government should take oil from Iran," said Left leader Gurudas Dagupta.
"Shutting petrol pumps at night will not lead to less consumption. This is not a solution and the government should talk to everyone and come up with a solution," Samajwadi Party leader Naresh Aggarwal said.
While experts called it an 'ill-advised' idea saying it may create panic in the market, many said this may lead to black-marketing. "This idea to keep petrol pumps closed from 8 pm to 8 am is a very ill advised idea. It's not going to work. This idea if implemented will create black market and panic. You can put some night surcharge but don't stop selling it," said petroleum sector analyst Narendra Taneja.

Beautiful, keep up the good work.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Beautiful, keep up the good work.
I could not do PP that well if I tried for ever. There was only one perfect person.
Great job. I love it
It's not done with paper piecing. It is done with my cut down method. You sew two pieces of fabric together. You cut the angle with my 3" scored template(free) and then you sew on the other fabric on the other side. Position your template and cut out a square from the center. It is so easy to do. Then you take the Star Point Blocks and sew them together into the quilt block of your choice.Originally Posted by T-Bones mom
3 fabrics with template

Wow! You did a great job for your first try...practice makes perfect & Rhonda is online a lot, so she can help you if you have questions.

In the US and indeed much of the West democracy is synonymous with goodness. I've argued, however, that this is in part a result of the particular institutions of western society that make democracy workable and in part simple indoctrination.
There are intrinsic advantages to democracy but it is not clear to me that it is the right form of government for all people, at all times. It also appears that the people in Ukraine at least agree with that sentiment.
Which brings us to an interesting question. Could the public rightly relinquish its sovereignty? If you believe that a system of government not based on popular sovereignty is unjust then how would you respond to such an attempt? Is the resulting dictatorship rightful because it was voted in or is it wrong because it deviates from only just form of government?

Mc Caw Is Getting A Lot More Than A Chunk Of NextelPeter Coy
What a bargain. On Apr. 5, wireless-phone magnate Craig O. McCaw agreed to pay $12.25 a share for 9.4% of Nextel Communications Inc. That's not only a fraction of the $54 Nextel stock fetched in October, 1993; it's even below the $13.25 at which Nextel closed the day before the deal. If he likes the company, McCaw can exercise options to acquire up to 44 million more shares at prices that top out at $21.50 in six years. Says Steven R. Yanis, senior telecom analyst at Oppenheimer & Co.: "The company just has to be mildly successful and he makes a fortune."
McCaw's sweet deal is likely to infuriate Nextel's long-suffering shareholders--some of whom filed a class action on Mar. 10 accusing company executives of insider trading and making false and misleading statements about their technology. Nextel executives say the suit is without merit. But McCaw's purchase, which could be worth up to $1.1 billion, reflects this reality: Nextel badly needs McCaw, both for his money and for his strategic savvy.
Until a year ago, Nextel could do little wrong, stitching together an impressive nationwide network of radio-dispatch services for fleets of trucks, vans, and taxis. Then came a huge miscalculation, in the guise of a tentative deal by MCI Communications Corp. to pay $1.36 billion for a 17% stake in the company. The goal: To transform Nextel into a system rivaling the big cellular phone companies. But Nextel's network wasn't up to challenging the cellular operators. In August, MCI backed out, deciding it would cost too much to bring Nextel's phone quality up to the expectations of cellular customers. Nextel's stock plunged (chart).
"OUT OF FAVOR." Now, McCaw's cash injection bails Nextel out of a mess. The company needs hundreds of millions of dollars to finish building its national digital network. And it has fallen below the equity-to-total-capitalization test of its bond covenants, limiting its ability to buy the radio dispatch operations it needs from Motorola Inc. and others.
Beyond that, McCaw likely will help guide a company that has some major strengths: national digital coverage and an established customer base. "What you have is a company out of favor with nearly everybody and nearly written off--which still has a viable business case. And, without question, it is substantially underpriced," says Herschel Shosteck, president of Herschel Shosteck Associates Ltd., a market researcher.
McCaw, who will head a newly formed "operations committee," plans to return Nextel to its roots in two-way radio, a nearly 20 million-person market, while working to expand into white-collar sectors such as law firms. Where Nextel has an advantage over cellular, he says, is in permitting instant communication among members of a predefined work group. Within this "group" mode, all customers have to do is press the talk button and talk--no dialing required. That's suited, McCaw says, for "stream-of-consciousness" communications--say, the fast-paced back-and-forth that comes in the throes of closing a deal. It's no coincidence that Nextel Communicators were employed in the all-night session where the terms of McCaw's investment were thrashed out.
It's a splashy return to the spotlight for McCaw, who seemed outmatched in the recent auctions for airwaves for personal communications services (PCS). At the end of the action, McCaw, despite active bidding, came away without any licenses. He says now that he "couldn't have been happier with the outcome," since in bidding on a variety of properties, he made sure that no potential competitor got a better deal than AT&T, of which his family acquired 3% from its sale of McCaw Cellular Communications Inc. last year. Says McCaw: "Licenses should go for fair value, and if they weren't, they should go to me."
His Nextel deal has little to do with PCS, McCaw says. Analysts agree: Nextel has been down that path before, with disastrous results. McCaw simply is buying into Nextel at the right time, and at a price that leaves him with assets for other opportunities. "I view myself as flexible," McCaw says. Expect to hear more from the wizard of wireless.

He grabbed my ass cheeks and spread them and pushed a couple fingers into me.
I had such a good time with Elliot a couple weeks ago I decided to call him and have him pick me up. He agreed readily knowing that he was in for a good fucking.
I showered and dressed in my slutty clothe, Black ultra short dress, thong, see through blouse, see through bra, black thigh high stockings and black high heels. I am not sure why I bothered because all this is coming off as soon as we either park in the beach parking lot or we go to his apartment, but it makes me feel good to look like a slut.
He picked me up at 9pm and from the looks in his eyes he would have me right then and there. As we were driving toward the beach he wanted to know what I really liked and wanted. I told him I like to be watched while I am being fucked and my preferred place is the beach parking lot. I also told him that I don't mind if some other comes in and abuses me. I have done this many times and love it all. I like sucking, fucking front and back and like DPs as you know. Getting slapped around a little is OK as long as it stops if I say so.
As he was driving I saw his hand holding his cock in his pants, I reached over and opened his zipper and I remembered how big that cock was. I leaned over and took it in my hand, my mouth was on it's head and licked off his precum. He was having problems concentrating on the road, I stopped and just let his cock stand there. I looked at it thinking, I am going to enjoy it as it goes into me.
We got to the parking lot at 9:30 and it was almost dark. The place was crowded and I could see guys walking around looking into cars to see what kind of action they could see.
I mentioned it to Elliot and looked at me and smiled. "that's what you like". Yes I said. I come down here with Rick a lot of times and we always have a good time.
The limo is a big car and we moved to the back seat. He grabbed my head and open mouth kissed me. We had a tongue fight and as we were deep kissing his hand went for my blouse, opened it and pulled out my tits. He moved head his down and took one nipple in his mouth and grabbed the other between his thumb and a finger. As he was sucking on gently biting my hard nipple he rolled and squeezed the other one sending electric shocks down my core into my pussy. I needed to get into my pussy but he was in no hurry. I reached over to his open zipper pulled out his cock again and stroked his big black cock, I could not get my hand around it. He turned me over on the seat and pulled down the zipper of my dress, pushed me back and pulled it down. I was naked except for my thong and black stockings.
He pushed me on my back, spread my legs, put one leg behind the head rest and the other over the back of the front seat. I was spread out. He moved between my legs and put is head down so he could eat my cunt. He spread my pussy lips with his fingers and put his mouth against them .Stuck his tongue into my pussy, pushed a finger in as well and got a hold of my swollen clit and sucked on it. A couple of fingers of his other hand found my asshole and worked their way up as far as they could using my pussy juice that was flowing out of my very wet cunt. Between my clit being sucked and my ass being fucked I felt an orgasm coming on. My legs were shaking and I was bucking up. Then I saw a small light on my pussy and I knew I was being watched that got me really coming and I was holding Elliot's head and wrapped my legs around it. I was shaking all over the seat and I could feel my pussy juices pouring out of me down the crack of my ass. I yelled to Elliot to fuck me. I spread my legs again so he could drive that huge cock into me and as he did I told him we were being watched. He positioned us so that the guy could get a good look at we were doing. As he nailed me to the seat I started shaking my legs again and a wave started to build up in me. I came with a yell, grabbed his ass and pulled him against me so that I could get all of his cum. He pumped a couple more times and I felt his hot load filling my pussy. He kept on pumping and more cum was shooting into me. When he pulled out more cum shot on my face and tits, I looked at the window and the guy was shaking which meant he was jerking off. It felt great and I needed more, a lot more.
I pushed Elliot down on the seat, his cock was hard again, I straddled him and with my hand I pushed him into pussy. I leaned forward so my tits were in his face. He grabbed my ass cheeks and spread them and pushed a couple fingers into me. I fucked him slowly at first and then as I felt an orgasm coming I speeded up, I raised my head a little and saw another guy watching the action, I was in haven, I reached over and dropped the door window a little, I screamed as I came and could feel Elliot's cock getting bigger in my pussy. He shot his load as he bounced me up and down, grabbed my nipples and twisted them and came some more. The shock I got from his twisting my nipples built up another orgasm in my core I started bucking on him and let out another scream as I came.
I needed a break and got off Elliot, as I sat down I saw the 2 guys looking in and I smiled at them. I love to be watched. Elliot sat up and looked at the 2 guys and whispered to me "do you want company" I looked at Elliot and asked if he was alright with that and he said yes he would love to see me being fucked. Can you take it It could get a little rough I am sure some of these guys like to hurt the girls a little like smacking ass, tits the face a little it gets them really going. I asked him how he knows this and his answer was that he had other girls in here and let these guys in. I thought about it and I don't mind a little rough stuff, it makes me come harder and faster. The last time I did it was when Rick was with me to control the situation. I said OK.
No sooner did Elliot open the doors the 2 guys jumped in, Grabbed me pushed me on my back on the seat, slapped my face and tits a bit I already felt and orgasm coming on. One grabbed my arms and pulled back over my head the other dropped his pants, he had no shorts on straddled my face and pushed his black cock over my mouth and told me to open which I did. He stuck his cock in, I was gagging but he didn't care he just went ahead and face fucked me, The other guy got between my leg, spread them wide, hooked one leg over the head rest, dropped his pants and shoved 3 fingers in my pussy, opened my pussy lips and shoved his big cock into me. I felt his fingers going for my asshole, he was rough he just pushed 2 fingers in and fucked my pussy and ass at the same time I was in haven, as rough as these guys were I had orgasms one after the other. I finally swallowed the face fucker and he shot a load down my throat and kept on shooting filling my mouth and throat with his hot cum. The other one was banging away in my cunt and finger fucking me hard in the ass. He came and he shot a huge load up my pussy, I could feel his cum and my juices running out of me down the crack of my ass. He flipped over and pulled up on my knees and said out loud that was going to fuck my ass. He spread my cheeks and slapped them real hard a couple times, I could feel the heat rising in them, he took dome of the juices and rubbed his cock with them and put the head of his cock against my asshole slowly pushing in while holding on to my hips. I could feel his cock going in and it felt great, I love my ass being fucked. The other guy sat in front of me and held my nose that I would open my mouth as I did he shoved his cock in my mouth as far as he could go and grabbed my hair to pull up my head and push down then he left his cock in and I swallowed it. He moved up and down to face fuck me again. What a thrill, ass fucking and face fucking. I loved it. I soon felt them both getting ready to unload their loads which a couple minutes later they did. OMG what a feeling. I was ready to me again and told my fucker to use his fingers in my cunt so I could. I screamed as I came and bucked like a horse.
I was so full of cum I asked Elliot if he had any paper towel, he found some napkins that used to clean up a little. My face fucker laid on his back and told me sit on his cock facing my ass fucker. I knew what was coming, he pulled me back and made me ready for a DP. I love DPs and sure enough my ass fucker got between my legs, pushed me over toward the other guy, spread them and pushed his cock into my pussy. I could feel both cocks between the thin skin that separates my asshole and pussy. They started to fuck and I could feel an orgasm coming down, I shook my legs and began to moan and yell "I want to guys to come now", it did not take long for them to oblige and I felt hot cum up my ass and pussy I loved it, it just the way I like it.
They both got up and Elliot was beaming and sitting with a huge hard on ready to plow into me, I laid down on my back, he spread my legs and went to town on me. He was nailing me hard, I heard the other guys leaving. Elliot built up a huge load which he shot into me as he was groaning.
I was tired and when I sat up I saw another couple guys looking in and one of them said through he open window that he would love to eat my ass. I said "next time"
I got dressed and asked Elliot to take me home. It was 2am and I was sore. He asked me if I got what I wanted and said "YES"
When I got home I called Rick and told him what happen, his answer was "You enjoyed that's what counts"

Human footprints have been found with dinosaur tracks at Paluxy
From EvoWiki
Human and dinosaur footprints have been found together in the Glen Rose formation at Paluxy River, Texas.
- Morris, Henry M., 1974. Scientific Creationism, Master Books, Arkansas, p. 122.
- The "human" footprints referred to in the claim, are misidentified specimens of dinosaur footprints which bear a greater or lesser degree of similarity to human footprints. In some cases, Glen Rose residents have been known to artificially enhance particular footprints' similarity to human footprints in order to attract tourists' dollars.
- Furthermore, the "human" footprints, misidentified or counterfeit, don't resemble human footprints, either in size, nor shape, in the first place.
- It is by far a more parsimonious explanation that these fossils are wrongly identified or are faked rather than the entire fields of paleontology, paleoichnology and anthropology are wrong.
- Creationist think-tank Answers in Genesis agrees that this claim is false, and is on their list of arguments that should not be used.

Cash compensation could be paid to west London residents if a third runway is built, the man leading the airports commission revealed today.
Sir Howard Davies said he would look at whether financial payments should be given to people under the flightpath if Heathrow expansion or rival schemes at Stansted or Gatwick get the go-ahead.
Launching the commission's work, he responded to business anxiety about the delay in his report to 2015, pledging that it would contain extra detail — enabling the preferred scheme to be built more quickly.
In addition, he revealed that next year's interim report will be much more significant than previously expected. It will narrow down the rival options to a shortlist of "realistic" schemes, ending the anxiety of people living near more marginal sites.
The interim report will also make recommendations on immediate ways to boost capacity at the existing runways in the South-East, possibly including mixed-mode operation at Heathrow or night flights.
But Mayor Boris Johnson condemned David Cameron for delaying decisions until 2015, calling it "toxic and disastrous" and a bitter blow to Londoners fearful of a third runway.
The Mayor said he would look at "all options" to speed up the decision, which appeared to hint at legal action against the Government. Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin announced the commission's membership, which will include Sir John Armitt, chairman of the Olympic Delivery Authority, plus two business leaders and two top academics.
Asked if compensation could be paid to Putney residents if a third runway was built, Sir Howard said: "There are examples in other countries of different kinds of compensation arrangements which have been used, and that is certainly something we are going to look at." He said the final report in summer 2015 would be "a really expert piece of work" and would go further than previously expected by including detailed work to hasten the publication of a National Policy Statement soon afterwards, so the new government would "have a flying start".
Sir Howard told the Standard he would aim to pare down the list of options to a "manageable" size next year. He said: "I am conscious that allowing a lot of options to run does create the risk of planning blight ... and I don't want to alarm people who have no need to be alarmed."
Among the projects being promoted are expanding Heathrow with a third runway; building a 24-hour hub in the Thames estuary; Turning Stansted or Gatwick into a hub, and linking them to Heathrow via high speed rail; using Birmingham as a mini-hub when HS2 is built; shifting Heathrow to a new site west of London.
Sir Howard said there were between four and six rival estuary schemes, including "Boris Island", and he would attempt to name one or more as a "frontrunner" that would go forward for a thorough evaluation in the final report in 2015.
But Mr Johnson said: "It is a bitter blow for millions of Londoners that the Government remains determined to progress with a timetable that is a recipe for chaos and confusion. I cannot fathom the logic behind delaying this crucial decision until 2015. It only guarantees three years of uncertainty for people living near Heathrow and is a cruel and unusual punishment for our business community who are united in their desire for a decision to be made.
"I cannot fathom the logic behind delaying this crucial decision until 2015. While this inertia continues we are losing business, losing jobs and losing time."
Speaking on BBC radio, the Mayor said: "It's going to be toxic and disastrous to go into the election of 2015 with Heathrow runway three still on the agenda, millions of Londoners in a state of great anxiety and uncertainty, about whether or not they're going to suffer from severe noise pollution."
A solution will emerge from the long grass
Sir Howard Davies
Londoners are full of strong opinions about their airports.
I have discovered that to my cost since the Government asked me to chair a commission on future capacity. People don't love airports, but they appreciate the economic significance of good connectivity.
My commission is charged with finding a long-term solution to maintain the connectivity a leading global city needs to prosper, to be ready for the government elected in 2015. We know that won't be easy. The debate on a third runway at Heathrow, a new airport in the Thames estuary, or expansion at London's other airports, has polarised opinion in a way that makes decision-making difficult.
The good news is that the commission's formation has stimulated creative thinking. A plan to move the centre of gravity of Heathrow westwards has been proposed, as has a fast rail link that will let us think of Heathrow and Gatwick as one hub.
The bad news is that we have come under "friendly fire". The Mayor and Michael Heseltine have argued that in setting up a commission the Government has booted the issue into the long grass.
I understand the point, but I think we can push things forward more quickly than they expect. When we produce our recommendations, they will not simply be opinions. They will be grounded in fully articulated business cases, with environmental assessments to back them up. We will also produce the outline of a national policy statement which would be needed as the framework for any future planning applications.
So we will be working hard in our long grass, with the aim of allowing the new government to make a flying start in 2015.

Opponent Watch: Sami Khedira will be ready for World Cup - Germany coach Loew
Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira will play for Ghana's group opponents Germany at the Brazil World Cup this summer, according to national coach Joachim Low.
The German national coach Low believes that Khedira will be able to represent his country in Brazil after recovering from knee surgery.
The midfielder has not played for Madrid or Germany since his national side's game in November against Italy.
However, in a recent interview with Bild, Low touched on Khedira's recovery, saying: "Khedira radiates ambition in our conversations, I hope he can join use for the World Cup.
"At this moment, he's in incredible physical fitness.  His knee is free of any pain and he's very tough.â€
Khedira is expected to return in time for the final weeks of the La Liga season but his inclusion in the Madrid team under boss Carlo Ancelotti is uncertain after the superb form of Croatian midfielder Luka Modric.
The 26-year-old German has been linked with a summer move to Chelsea and Manchester United.

Bullied 12-year-old kills herself
Rebecca Ann Sedgwick, 12, suicide after suffering ongoing attacks via social networks
A 12-year-old Floridian girl killed herself after she was bullied online by more than a dozen girls. The Sheriff is investigating to see if he can pursue charges under Florida's cyber-bullying law.
Sheriff Judd of Polk County said that Rebecca Anne Sedgwick ended her life by jumping to her death at an old cement production facility in Lakeland, Florida. Judd said she was "absolutely terrorized" by the girls on social media sites.
The Lakeland Ledger that some of the messages she received included
"Why are you still alive?"
"Go kill yourself,"
An investigation of her previous search results included queries about how many Advil it took to overdose, and she had recently changed her name on a free social messaging application to "That Dead Girl." They also found photos of Sedgwick with her head resting on a railroad track.
Her bullies may be charged under Florida's felony cyber-stalking law, if investigators can find enough evidence to pursue the charges. The parents of the suspects are cooperating fully in the investigation and the girls have had their laptops and cell phones confiscated.
The bullying appears to have started at Crystal Lake Middle School in 2012 over a boyfriend.

"Drive Less, PADDLE MORE!"
The Mamba 8.1 Creeker edition is a beefier, fully redesigned model for 2012. The trusted river running and creeking performance has been bolstered with an extensive set of enhancements that maintain the Mamba's well-known predictablity, while pushing the envelope in its capabilities to tackle creeks or big water rapids.
The new, larger sized 8.1 offers more volume and better volume distribution than the Mamba 8.0 Creeker. The rocker breaks and profile have been tested and engineered for more speed and crisper carving. Still easy to edge, stable and even a little playful, it's the perfect boat for learning the ropes or pushing it to the next level.
Strengthening this model still are safety improvements. The bow grab handle has been repositioned for easier access, and a new grab handle has been added near the cockpit. In addition, a molded-in stern foam wall holder has been integrated for the ultimate in structural integrity.

After Sandy, Homeowner Asks What Next?
When Sandy struck, WNYC decided that one way it would tell the story would be to closely follow a few New Yorkers as they coped with the storm's affects on their lives. One of them was Stephen Drimalas, a 46 year-old city worker who lives in a modest home not far from the beach in Ocean Breeze, Staten Island.
The video, produced in collaboration with WNET-TV, is about the latest chapter in his saga, which could be called, "Now That I've Survived, Should I Stay Or Go?" The question, as you'll see, is not easily answered.

3 tier wedding cake at walmart for 139.00!
I was in Walmart the other day and they have 3 tiered wedding cakes for 139.00! So I asked for a sample and it was delicious! By far Walmarts cake tasted better than all the bakerys I have been to! Only thing is you can only pick a cake from their design which all were beautiful! Just a thought for all you brides that didnt thing you could afford a traditional wedding cake
Re: 3 tier wedding cake at walmart for 139.00!
waltzingmatilda13 member
The down side to Wal Mart is that they do not deliver and some will not stack the cakes either (depends on the decorator's experience). Make sure you are able to pick up the cake the day of your wedding, transport it, and stack it (so you also have to buy items for a support system, cut them, stack, hide seam...).
MesmrEwe memberThere's one other thing to consider, their portion is half the size (1x1x3-4) of the average wedding slice (1x2x4-5)... Also, if something happens in the delivery (wind gust blows the door into the cake) you're SOL compared to if something happens to the bakery who is delivering the cake if something happens in the delivery THEY take care of things for you.

One of my friends got married at the beach last year and Walmart did her cake. It was stacked and it tasted fine. She did have one minor problem when picking it up though. It was hot outside and the icing melted and bled in one or two spots. It wasnt bad but I noticed it.114 Made the cut!
84 Are ready to celebrate! 20 Are missing out! 10 Don't understand RSVP?!
My cousin had walmart do her cake and it looked great. I don't like wedding cake so I can't comment on the taste. The groom picked it up but my aunt stacked it. I am debating about doing this since neither my FI or I like cake and for some reason wedding cake has become expected with weddings.

Jessica Simpson: It Gets "Old" Being Bashed Over Weight, Haters Motivate Me
Jessica Simpson is tired of people focusing on the weight she's gained with her pregnancies, but she's now proud to show off all that she's lost. "It does get old having people harping on how much you weigh or your body after pregnancy," says the mom of two, noting, "People are going to pick me apart no matter what I do. I'm always going to have critics out there who will make a story out of something."
But Simpson is now using the scrutiny as motivation to "be the best version of myself and to feel great." She tells USA Today, "People are going to talk about this no matter what. I might as well choose to live a healthy lifestyle." Of course, the singer finds inspiration at home, too, in "almost-husband" Eric Johnson and their kids Maxwell and Ace.
"I want to be a great mom and a great example to my kids," says Simpson, who admits that "being pregnant for two years took a toll." Simpson says that she was more health-conscious during her second go-round, and is now actively dropping the pounds with the help of Weight Watchers, exercise, and, well, everyday life. "With both kids, I'm running up and down my stairs a million times. Kids can keep your metabolism going," she says. "Eric and I go on walks together. I try and walk about 4 miles a day consistently. It makes me feel better."
The former reality star confesses that Johnson is "basically my therapist on our walks," and further tells the paper, "I'm the luckiest girl in the world to have Eric with me and by my side, and he's an unbelievable dad." Simpson says she's starting to look at sketches and color schemes for their eventual wedding — but what about expanding their family a third time? "I can't even think about being pregnant again right now," she says, before adding, "I would never say never."

Feathering Propellor - need help
We hauled out C&C 44 for the first time this past weekend. This boat was new for us in the spring.
After haulout we found that a ring at the front of the feathering prop has unscrewed itself and was laying loosing around the shaft.
I am not sure what kind of prop it is. It is a 3 bladed feathering prop. I thought it was a Maxprop but when I look at the on-line information and assembly manual my prop is completely different in design. Did Maxprop change their design?
I would expect that my prop is from the 1986 - 1990 period.
The 3 parts of the prop are all intact but loose because the ring holding them together has unscrewed itself. It appears as though there there should be a bolt that screws in to the front of ring that holds the ring in place and prevents it form loosening itself. Claerly this bolt fell out first and then the ring unscrewed itself and came apart.
The same assembly is intact on the back of the prop.
I have managed to start threading the ring back onto the assembly but it appears that a tool is needed to get it on further. There is a hole in the outside of the ring. Clearly a tool must wrap around the ring and a screw would be inserted into the hole in the ring.
Anyone who has information that could help identify the kind of prop that I have and where I would get access to the tool that is required to reassemble the prop would be appreciated.
A photo of said prop would make identifying it a lot easier. Also, it would help in identifying what tool is needed to tighten the ring.
I am trying to figure out how to post 2 JPEG images of about 90kB each.
For some reason I get an upload failure on both. :(
No thats not it. My prop is quite different. If I can figure out how to upload pictures I'll post the two pictures.

If I'm not mistaken, you have a Variprop feathering prop. The giveaway is the zinc cone. I had one on my Tartan a few years ago. Check out their website.

Maybe they need to start a special posthumous category for magazine related awards. We noted the other day that Best Life was up for an Ellie despite the fact it folded earlier this month, and Dealscape is currently reporting on the sad phenomenon of Financial Week.
You may recall that Financial Week shuttered its print edition back in December but planned to live on on the Internets — before also shutting down the website a few weeks ago. However! That hasn't kept the mag from winning awards. As Dealscape points out Financial Week just won a number of Neal Awards Thursday including 'Best news coverage' and here's a kicker, 'Best Web site.' The lesson here? Actually we're not sure there is a lesson other than a lot of good smart people are (hopefully temporarily) losing their jobs in this Great Media Transition we seem to be undergoing, and with any luck will be out of sooner than later.

Like traveling with "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom"
It's impossible to know where to begin to thank you and ADS for all you did for us before and during our wonderful adventure. The number of African moments that took our breath away are too numerable to count (although the 14,000 pictures Dale took might be some indication – ha!). All of our dreams really did come true and we left feeling full and satisfied. The country is magnificent and ever-changing, the animals are majestic and entertaining, the weather is perfect and our guide/teacher was admirably focused on ensuring our adventure was an experience of a lifetime.
I know you had a hand in choosing our guide based on our interest in photography and what a gift he was. Not only was he tolerant of our enthusiasm for photos but he joined in our joy of capturing great moments and lent his expertise to ideas for great shots and they were abundant!. In addition, his knowledge of the animals and their habits was like traveling with "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom".
He provided constant commentary, could spot wildlife from ridiculous distances and then could predict what we should watch for as we moved in closer…perhaps they were going to stalk some prey, look for water or even mate. It was truly remarkable. Needless to say we saw the big 5 repeatedly and then some! He was open to all of our wishes for early game drives and met us each morning with a clean vehicle, breakfasts, lunches and beverages. What a wonderful ambassador for Tanzania! I am including just a couple of Dale's more unique photos as proof of what a great photo team we all were!
And finally the accommodations were outstanding. We loved the uniqueness of each location and their inspiring evening views. Our meals were excellent, the entertainment was fun and our farewell was both appreciated and quite unexpected.
Again, thank you for guiding us through this adventure and for the service that is clearly a benchmark for ADS. We'll be back someday with grandchildren!
Our sincerest thanks,
Debby and Dale Hewitt

What is going on in that last photo above with the two cats?
Great photos, thanks.
My clients, Dale and Debby Hewitt, took this photograph of two juvenile leopard siblings playing in the Seronera area of the central Serengeti (known incidentally for its high density of leopard). Play is an important component of helping to develop the motor skills needed for "life skills" such as defense and hunting and this can be clearly seen in this awesome picture
I will be in Tanzania with ADS on safari in less than 2 weeks. I have a new goal. To match your 14,000 pictures. How many memory cards did your use?
I used two SanDisk 64 GB Ultra Secure Digital High Capacity, SDXC, Memory Card, 15MB/Sec Read/Write Speed.
I have Canon T2i with a Canon 100/400 Zoom Lens for most of my pictures.

After lunch at the East Point, enjoying the salty smell of the ocean and spying a playful seal, we hit the road and came home via Edmundston, NB and a stop in old town Quebec City for lunch. You think by this point we would be tired of seafood but you know what we ordered for our meal on the patio in Quebec... fish cakes!
