Hewitt's winning streak continues
Page Tools
Fiesty Australian flagbearer Lleyton Hewitt reminded Americans in no uncertain terms he still cared as he swept into the third round of the US Open at Flushing Meadows today.
Hewitt extended his winning run to 12 matches after overcoming a first-set scare to subdue dangerous Moroccan Hicham Arazi 7-6 (9-7) 6-1 6-2 and book a Sunday showdown with 30th-seeded Spaniard Feliciano Lopez.
The 2001 champion's slide down the rankings from world No.1 to 18 last year seems to have many in New York doubting his passion and desire, but Hewitt set the record straight during and after his impressive win over Arazi.
The fourth seed received a code violation for thrashing the ball in frustration between a linesman and ball girl during the tense first, prompting both jeers from the crowd and an incredulous glare from Hewitt towards umpire Carlos Bernardes.
It was an innocuous dummy spit from the lone Australian left in the singles draw, but one that nevertheless should have confirmed to the local audience he meant business at the last grand slam of the season.
Clearly, though, it wasn't enough of a sign for American journalists with one reporter asking: ''You almost seem to be wistful when you talk about how well you played here two years ago. Are you concerned you might not be able to get back to that level in a big event?''
Hewitt: ''Oh no. I did at Wimbledon. Not to worry.''
The 23-year-old South Australian then reminded journalists that ''just a point here and there'' was the difference between him and eventual champion Roger Federer at the Australian Open and Wimbledon this year.
''I was up a break late in the fourth set against Federer at Wimbledon. If I could have pushed it to five sets, you never know having the momentum. In the Australian Open, I was a point away from being up a set and a break.''
Hewitt also showed today he had not lost his ability to fight his way out of a hole.
He trailed the flashy left-hander Arazi throughout the first set, falling behind 5-3 and then fending off two set points in the tiebreaker, before roaring with a mixture of relief and pleasure after striking a forehand winner to steal the set and the initiative.
Hewitt said it was a vital set to win against an opponent he'd lost to in straight sets in their only previous encounter, also on a north American hardcourt, three years ago.
Arazi, 30, had survived a tough five-setter in the first round and it was clear his energy and confidence had been sapped after conceding the opening set to Hewitt in one hour and 55 minutes.
The win was also an early psychological blow for Hewitt ahead of Australia's Davis Cup promotion-relegation battle against Morocco in Perth later this month.
Hewitt said he expected more of the same against Lopez, who advanced with a marathon 7-5 7-5 6-7 (5-7) 1-6 6-2 win over German qualifier Philipp Kohlschreiber.
''He's a big left-hander again. I seem to be playing a lot of left-handers lately,'' he said.
''He's got a big serve, big forehand, he chips his backhand a lot.
''He's a dangerous player again because he's going to be flashy on my service games and, on his, he's going to try to hold his serve.
''I've just got to try to return well, move well and make him play those extra shots.''
Lopez said all the pressure was on the in-form Hewitt.
''I've never played him before, but I think it's a good match for me,'' the Spaniard said.
''I have nothing to lose. He's had a good summer playing well and he's won a few tournaments, but I think I have a chance if I play good.''
Beyond Lopez, Hewitt's path to a possible semi-final against defending champion Andy Roddick cleared somewhat tonight when his projected quarter-final opponent, Argentine eighth seed David Nalbandian, lost in five sets to Russian Mikhail Youzhny.

Carb to TPI on a 72 SBC 350
I just finished the final tuning of the TPI I installed on my Buds 72 350 Chevy powered pickup with a 700R4. Some back ground: it had a Carter Q jet, nice big valve heads, a 700R4 that used the Painless Wiring converter control, and Dual Flow Master Series 40 with an H pipe. We now have a easy starting, smooth running, more seat of the pants power and more fuel economy. One side benefit that I would like someone to explain is the very disturbing exhaust resonance we had with the carb set up is GONE!!! Go figure.
We canned the hard ware from an 88 Camaro, including the wiring harness for reference. I ordered the Painless wiring harness for the MAP so we could eliminate the Mass Air Flow sensory in the front. We pulled the MAP sensor and computer from a 93 Chevy V-6. I replaced the Coolant Temp sensor, O2 Sensor, oil pressure switch, and Knock Sensor and bought a Carter 5000 in line fuel pump. The other sensors appeared to be good and have checked out fine so far. I found the Painless Installation Instructions to be complete and straight forward. The biggest problem was X ing out all the stuff not needed since it was generic for Throttle body, MAF and MAP as well as with and with out polutition control. We had to mill a few parts to provide a "factory" look. It was very satisfying to have it fire right up one the first attempt. We had to shut down for a minor fuel leak because I had not applied enough torque to one of the high pressure fuel fittings. To regress, I had a local hacker reprogram the 93 chip to give about 4 more degrees of global spark advance and erase all the polution controll junk as well as the VATS portion. He smoothed out the fuel and spark curves also. It is about the same as the old "Hot Chip". Tomorrow, I will take about a 60 mile trip to see how much the fuel economy has improved.
We were able to get this done for less than $600. Now I am ready to tackle the 327 in my 36 Coupe!!!
quick question
this may seen like a wierd question but why did you trash the maf for a map..the reason i ask is due to the fact of preformance the vac can alter and make the ecm angree when the maf seened to be the choice i have had for that issue..i am courious due to the fact i may go to a tpi on my impala
I cant speak for trees but I can think of a few reasons. One being that replacing a MAP sensor can be significantly less than having to replace a MAF. Another reason is that you can rid of the ducting and the sensor itself for physical fitment as well as appearance (they look wicked with a nice big filter on the end of the throttle body).
When they switched to a MAP sensor they also did away with the ESC (Electronic Spark control) module as well, again simplifying things somewhat.
It is argued about which setup is better. MAF are more affected by vaccum leaks but less affected by overall engine vaccum. It sounds like a wierd concept but from my experience seems to be true. MAF systems are also a bit more accurate with the incoming air reading whereas the MAP system calculates air based on engine vaccum. I personally prefer a MAF setup as that is what I am most familiar with but Im sure someone should chime in with the reasons they like the MAP setup more.
Bringing history and technology together.
Primary reason to get rid of the MAF was the room at the frunt (Ducting as mentioned above). Second reason is reliability of Speed Density system over Mass Air Flow system. The big boys changed over for a reason, maybe because of the big difference in cost of a MAF sensor and the MAP sensor.
Speed density is better than MAF because of the fact that air volume can better be calculated with MAT taken into account. MAF is older technology. I could be wrong, but I think that all the oems now use speed density.
Trees, that is great that you got it all together and running. I have thought about doing one of these on my 57 but with a Genboard so I can tune it myself. Sounds like your build went smooth.
Kevin, after what you have gone thru with your Turbo, this is a cake walk. Get after the 57 cause I am interested in how the Genboard turns out. I'm still looking for a easy, reliable system to put in the coupe. Right now I'm leaning toward the tune port with the small distributor. I want to feel comfortable doing it without pulling off the front end!!!
Actually many manufacturers nowdays use both a MAF and MAP sensor. I guess they figured it would be best to combine them and have the computer compare readings.
As far as I understand it, MAF more accurately read incoming air however since these systems dont calculate vaccum, leaks can cause them more problems than the MAP setup which will adjust fuel based on Manifold pressure.
I know later year Camaro's (1997 and up) as well as the Corvettes (and probably any of the later LT1/LT4 induction systesm) use both a MAF sensor and a MAP sensor.
Bringing history and technology together.
I am not sure what the combination is used for, but it could vary well be a comparison. I would bet, however, that they are using a blend of the two for fuel calcs. A common practice on engines with fat cams is to use MAF for idle tuning and then transistion to speed density for power tuning, but I cant see why the oems would need this.

Many infants in poor and middle-income countries get their vaccines weeks later than doctors recommend and therefore face increased risks of sickness and death, according to a new study in the Lancet.
Globally, vaccination rates have risen sharply over the last 20 years, and child mortality has dropped below 10 million a year for the first time, thanks largely to measles shots. But things aren't so good in Africa and Latin America. Researchers at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine studied health surveys from 45 countries in those regions, and found that:
Besides the obvious risk that a child will die during the delay, there are some theoretical risks with vaccines being newly introduced. The Hepatitis B vaccine under consideration can protect against infection from the mother only if given within seven days of birth, and the tuberculosis vaccine, which should be introduced in the first week, is often delayed.

McNeil, Jr., Vaccination: Vaccine Delays in Poorer Nations Raise Health Risks for Infants, New York Times, March 24, 2009; based upon: Andrew Clark and Dr. Colin Sanderson, Timing of children's vaccinations in 45 low-income and middle-income countries: an analysis of survey data, The Lancet, March 2009.

Gwyneth Paltrow Looks Chic In NYC, Still Can't Believe She's 40 [PHOTOS]
I often wonder that about Gwyneth Paltrow. When she's out and about in the city she always looks so calm and collected, like she knows she's the most badass bitch on the planet and she can have anything she wants. With any other celebrity like this, I would assume at home they're insane, but with Gwyneth, I'm pretty sure she's the HBIC all the time.
The chic actress, who just celebrated her 40th birthday in gorgeous Italy, looked marvelous in New York City as she arrived at the Standard Hotel. Gwyneth wowed in a white skirt and knit top complete with bright orange pumps and a blue Chanel bag. Think those are on her list of must haves for the season?
Let's be honest here, the best thing in the world is when Gwyneth tells us to go buy $18,000 worth of new spring clothes. Next week her website GOOP will probably say something like, "Everyone needs a $2,000 Chanel purse! Just go pick one up at your local Neimans!" Sure Gwyneth, we'll get right on that.
Launch the gallery to check out all the photos of Ms. Paltrow looking lovely. Seriously, she's 40 but looks exactly the same as she did when she played Emma in 1996.

BlackBerry's Music Service Confirmed, Beta Commences
BlackBerry's new music service is official, with features, pricing, and music industry deals confirmed.
On Thursday, RIM announced the start of a closed beta of BBM Music, which allows users of the company's popular BlackBerry Messenger service to listen to and share songs with fellow BBMers -- as long as they've updated to BBM 6 (earlier versions do not support the music service).
A total of 50 songs from a huge catalog of licensed music (about 10 million songs so far) can be added to a BBM Music profile, according to the company's web site splash page. The price is $5 per month, and for now this is the only tier available -- although BBM Music could conceivably introduce more capacious plans given enough interest (and device capabilities, of course).
If a total of 50 seems somewhat limited compared to some other device and app capabilities, users can swap out up to 25 songs per month -- so any given month provides an individual user with full (although not simultaneous) access to 75 songs. And that's before one starts adding BBM Music friends.
Yes, the social playlist function allows users to also listen to other BBM Music users' songs. Given enough friends (and assuming all of them don't have similar song lists), this could dramatically increase the amount of music available to a user at any one time. BTW: initial beta tester reports also state that friends' music is included in the recommendations, which may not give ideal results.
The service is expressly focused on the social aspect, with sharing of songs and playlists repeated throughout the company's statements. Any tracks that users want to keep can be stored on removable media or purchased via an embedded link to Amazon's MP3 Store.
The major music labels (EMI, Sony Music, Universal Music Group, and Warner) are fully involved, and reiterate RIM's stated social focus, emphasizing discovering new music rather than building up a huge collection of all-time favorites.
A major component of online music continues to be about community, and the ability to discover new artists and music through word of mouth, stated Rob Wells, Universal Music's President of Global Digital Business. BBM Music dynamically and elegantly integrates the excitement of this social music discovery process with a high quality music service, enabling tens of millions of BlackBerry users to experience new music and to share those experiences with their friends virtually anywhere and at anytime.

Low Voltage Lighting
Last year, I converted my low voltage lighting over to LED. I now have a 400W transformer with ten 2.5W lights on the run. Since I have the electrical capacity, my wife would now like to have LED string lights (like Christmas lights) tied into this line to wrap around a couple of our Queen Ann palms.
Are there any low voltage LED string lights available for purchase yet? I saw a DIY for converting standard Christmas LED lights over to low voltage, but I'd like to just buy them if they're available.
A quick search found lots of low voltage lights LED string lights in color but I was not finding any in clear.
Firefly lights---that act like real fireflies---are fun and used by theme parks. There must be a way to turn the flicker off?
Firefly lighting is a term a lighting store or lighting designer will be familiar with and there are lots of options but glancing quickly I saw none low voltage. Shouldn't be a big deal to convert LEDs to a lower voltage (he said with no proof of this!)
Anyhow, in addition to searching for string lights explore firefly lighting. If I get more time I will do the same as this is interesting to me. Please post back if you find something.
Found these for 20 pounds. 100 lights with a function controller, indoor/outdoor for 24V. Obviously you would have to factor currency exchange, shipping and customs. They must sell something similar here? My new search string was Low Voltage LED TWINKLE lights if you want to explore further. You might try Low Voltage LED CHRISTMAS lights too.

Maybe you are looking this amber led string?

Fast food workers paid up to 15hr? thoughts?
Employees at chains like McDonald's, KFC, Burger King and Papa John's in seven cities will call for a living wage. They want to raise pay rates to $15 an hour.
They call their movement "Fast Food Forward" and the strike could last through Thursday. It comes as the District and Walmart battle over a living wage.
The retail giant has threatened to hold off plans for some of its D.C. stores if the council approves a living wage increase.
I don't care if its a job no one will take or people think is crap... You eat their food you pay for their services... Everyone deserves a wage where they can live comfortably... To me 7.25 is not enough.
They have a point. You can't provide for your children or pay rent making minimum wage without the help of welfare.
I dont think any adult dreams of working at McDonlads, but I respect anyone who will take any job available to support their family.
Quoting Anonymous:
If you want a 'living wage' get a career. You can't take ever crap job that needs zero education and make them pay $15 plus an hour.
Good. Go on strike. I'd love to see fast food restaurants shut down. Then the unskilled workers can go fine a new minimum wage job with their lack of skills.
Unskilled jobs were never meant to provide for a family. Adults are supposed to have a career.
Quoting 2012Rabbit12:
They have a point. You can't provide for your children or pay rent making minimum wage without the help of welfare.
$15 an hour wage for workers-->higher food prices-->less business for fast food=not gonna work

UncleCheese, have you looked at a lightbox called 'floatbox', just been looking at it and it looks really nice, very fast and flexible, you can even set the style/display options on the fly. Find it here: http://randomous.com/tools/floatbox/demo.php
the default look isnt particularly nice but you can make it look like shadow box without much trouble, which is by far teh best looking lightbox IMO. I have been using shadowbox but the only problem is no captions, is that why you dropped it in your latest release of image gallery?
Personally I think the box you have on your demo site at the moment is not as slick as either of them, any particular reason you chose that one?

77 Klipsch Cornwall w/ Type B Crossover - AlNiCo Mid/Tweet
a great classic that is a World Beater! this box would make some SERIOUS waves if released today! the beasts are huge. horn loaded in midrange and tweeter with Alnico magnets. bass supplied by 15" woofer reflex loaded. listen, if you told me I would be listening to Klipsch speakers in 2002, I would have dug you a grave with a telephone shovel... actually, I can't say enough positives about this amazing speaker that has transformed my SET system in one fell swoop, sending my ProAc Minitowers to second system status in a matter of minutes. the dynamics and bloom here are simply amazing. really, these speakers put so many audiophile offerings to shame as the soundfield is huge as the music envelopes you. I have never seen a bigger soundfield.
the only problem is they require quality amplification, with lower power tubes being by far the number one candidate. klipsch vintage horns do not take too well to grainy solid state amplification where they can drill a hole in center of skull with piercing glare. some still run these monsters with 70s solid state at hundred's of watts! christ, they only need a few watts to produce an inhome concert! the damn things sound heavenly with SET power but with the vintage eico hf-81, just do wonders... makes you realize that we have not come very far in 40 years; indeed, at times, i believe we have gone backwards....

what are other signs that my bichon frise is pregnant ??
my bichon frise's nipples have gotten a little bit bigger and her vaginal area too as well and i don't kow if it's just part of her being in heat or not. but we also have a male bichon frise too so i don't know if they had mated or if its just her being in heat.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
The nipples do get big when they are in heat, unless I'm mistaken. Signs of pregnancy include a bigger belly (which comes along later) and bigger nipples (full of milk not long before the puppies arrive).
However, if her vagina is swollen it's most probably her heat cycle.
But, you might want to have the vet check just to be sure.
PLEASE keep her separated from your male dog until her heat cycle is fully complete. Typically, the heat cycle last for 3 weeks (the 2nd week generally being when the dog is able to be impregnated). Please keep your dogs strictly and completely away from each other until the female's heat cycle is done. That means they need to be several rooms away from each other and your female should wear a "doggie diaper"just incase they end up together.
Also, I hope that you will be spaying your female and neutering your male soon. Why? My website will explain that:

If you have them running around together I can assure you he HAS tied with her..lol...
Usually when they are pg their teats will remain swollen and pink after she has finished her heat. The vulva will also stay swollen for awhile after. One of my girls stays swollen for a couple weeks after..
Your vet will not be able to palpate puppies until she is in her 40th day or so. And by then you will be seeing her belly pretty swollen. They rarely start showing until about 2-3 weeks before whelping.

Editing services by Jennie Bristow
For more information, email Jennie Bristow or telephone: (+44)7976414751.
Client testimonials
"Jennie Bristow is a brilliant editor because she not only has a formidable grasp of language but because she is also an excellent communicator. Her capacity to put in words and express what her clients are striving to say shows her understanding of and empathy for her clients' aspirations." Professor Frank Furedi, author, On Tolerance: A Defence of Moral Independence (Continuum 2011); Wasted: Why Education Isn't Educating (Continuum 2009)
"Jennie maintains a sharp eye for detail while also evaluating the cogency of the argument and the way it is presented. Her shrewd suggestions on matters of substance go well beyond what most editors are able to do. She improved my text immeasurably in ways large and small." John Ellis, Professor of German Literature, University of California, Santa Cruz; President, the California Association of Scholars
"Jennie Bristow is a diligent, flexible and trustworthy editor and proofreader, who has provided useful training to ABPI staff and worked with individuals to bring specific documents to completion. She has helped a very busy department to streamline its document production process, and engages with new editorial issues as they emerge." Amanda Callaghan, Director of Corporate Affairs, the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry
"Jennie Bristow has helped us develop summaries of the results from two rather complex pieces of research we carried out at the Centre for Sexual Health Research. Both pieces of work were carried out extremely efficiently and quickly, and Jennie's summaries managed to achieve the difficult balance between being comprehensible to the lay person whilst remaining true to the complexity of the initial material." Professor Roger Ingham, Director, Centre for Sexual Health Research, University of Southampton
"Jennie Bristow's Punctuate! service went far beyond my expectations of proofreading and editing. Jennie brought her vast knowledge and intellectual clarity to my work: she was able to offer valuable advice on the content, structure and overall direction. Jennie also met my impossibly tight deadlines with efficiency, professionalism and good humour." Dr Joanna Williams, author, Consuming Higher Education: Why Learning Can't Be Bought (Continuum: in press)
"Clarity is Jennie Bristow's strong point in editing. Then comes the amazing speed by which she does that without compromising quality; and the gentle manner in which she points out the structural weaknesses in your writing. She turned my manuscript into a piece of writing that now has a strong pace without compromising the overall storyline. My publisher read my manuscript in one sitting, 'something I rarely do', he said. That's because Jennie had weeded out the superfluity in the manuscript." Mphuthumi Ntabeni, writer
"I was really grateful for Jennie's support in preparing my PhD for publication as a manuscript. She has an excellent eye for style and clarity of expression, and the fact that she was able to turn the work around so fast really helped with meeting deadlines with the publisher. Her own sociological perspective, which informed her comments on the text, also really helped me think about how best to make a convincing, robust argument for the reader." Dr Charlotte Faircloth, author, Militant Lactivism? Infant Care and Maternal Identity Work in the UK and France (Berghahn Books: in press)
"Jennie helped me to complete my first book, based on my PhD. I needed an editor who would be able to handle academic sociological reflections and discussions of research findings as well appreciate my attempt to write for a much wider audience and across the disciplines. Jennie provided valuable advice that went beyond the usual - and necessary - corrections and proofing mistakes, but also helped improve the clarity of the writing. She did this at breakneck speed without compromising quality." Dr Tiffany Jenkins, author, Contesting Human Remains in Museum Collections (Routledge 2010)
"Jennie did an exceptional job at proof reading my PhD thesis. She worked with me to ensure that the work was completed on time and tracked changes to show me where I had made mistakes and where I could improve my writing - a great personal service!" Dr Hayley Watson
"Jennie provided an excellent editing service for my PhD thesis, which saved me a lot of time. The quality and speed of her editing and her punctuality were very helpful with regard to the approaching deadline." Dr Turkay Nefes
"Jennie's ability to produce snappy yet subtle summaries of complex academic research has contributed to the impact made by my work. She tackles projects with speed and enthusiasm, and is fastidious about deadlines and accuracy." Dr Ellie Lee, reader in social policy, University of Kent; author, Abortion, Motherhood and Mental Health (Aldine de Gruyter 2003)
"I was complimented on the low level of grammatical and punctuation mistakes in my thesis, and on the clarity of my writing: reflecting instances where Jennie had suggested that I needed to re-write, re-phrase or split complicated sentences. This editing service enabled me to concentrate on presenting the technical aspects of my research without worrying about being lost in the fog caused by spending so much time re-reading the same piece of work." Dr Ray Backler
"Jennie Bristow is an excellent and highly professional editor, providing creative ideas as well as paying keen attention to detail." Helene Guldberg, Managing Editor, spiked; author, Reclaiming Childhood (Routledge 2009)

Nfl Redzone also
I hate STL
Great. I'm in the gray area.
NO GAME due to NFL rules
Gus Johnson returns to the NFL this week on the Atlanta-Carolina game...
I have it, but this is one of the rare Sundays where I didn't need it.
It's awesome that the northeast has a ton of Cowboy fans here
Dal - Cincy and NO - Giants :mchammer:
me too. work in Reston...live in Chantilly. So Velocity or Glory Days here I come. On another note....best thing that could have happened for Cowboys fans...was for the Steelers to beat the Ravens. Steelers move on to the Chargers...and the Ravens know Big Ben is returning soon. So the Ravens will be highly motivated to bounce back...and driving down 95 South to meet the Skins will be seen as a must win game in their eyes.
How is everyone seeing if they are getting the game. When I do the link Dec 9 doesn't have the map link yet?
sure it does
Another game with get on my soapbox Thom.
Why does Baltimore get the game but not DC? Can someone explain the NFL rules there?
For some reason it is not working for me...Can anyone tell me if i get the game in New Orleans, LA...Thanks
You'll get the Cowboys in New Orleans.
Thanks Duane...
Think because Washington is playing at home, you can't get a double header game in your area, you just get the National game, which I think the NO/NY game is. I know that's the way it was many years ago when the Raiders and Rams were in LA.
What's it look like for South Virginia near the NC boarder? I can't click on liks at work.
The blue is our game. (Click for bigger pic)

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I have a Janome 1600 and a metal frame that I put together at it's full 12' length several years ago; then I had to dismantle it when my son came back home to live and took over my 'frame space'. Construction and de-construction of the frame was do-able by myself; I can see very well up close and am quite limber, so getting down onto the floor and back up again (many times!) was not a problem. I have the manual downstairs, but have to go get ready to go with hubby to his doctor's appointment, so I will check back here this afternoon and can perhaps answer your question re: the legs.
My husband purchased a Lil Gracie for me a couple of years ago. We have moved it a couple of times to different area and always have taken the legs off. Mine it set to be able to go from crib to kings size. Unfortunately I have never used it. I have a standard machine and tried it once but not coordinated enough to get the movement down. Maybe if I purchased a regulator I would actually use it for more than a table to set my machine and cutting mat on. I truly would love to learn how to use it and quilt larger projects. Anyway back to your question. my husband says to definitely take off the legs. Hope this helps
I can't help either, but have the Gracie and the Juki that originally come with the frame. I bought it used and am still trying to figure everything out. Will watch this thread for help.
I have the gracie, no you do not take all the legs off, this is set up sort of in sections you can build the extra and add it to the middle(I think) I will ask my husband to be sure and let you know if different.this is good frame, you will enjoy it .

Calling All Off Roaders...
In an effort to grow the Off Road Modification Sub Forum, we are trying to organized and cater the ORM sub forum to all Jeeps and not just the WK crowd that has seemed to corner the market over there.
We want this section to be about Off Roading your Jeeps and not platform vs platform. Share you pics, videos, trail runs/reports, aftermarket parts and all your general off road questions and information here:
Off Road Modifications - Jeep Garage - Jeep Forum
I have been trying to organize the WK stuff the best I can (because that is what i know). I would appreciate some of your help in setting up threads similar to what has already been created for the WK and such for the ZJ.
I appreciate the help and look forward to seeing those ZJ 's in action.
Re: Calling All Off Roaders...
I've got a crew of mixed vehicles (ZJ,XJ,TJ,4Runner) heading out to Chinaman Gulch for Easter. I'll be sure to post pics/report.

me 1982, my brother belonged to a side car team so had no choice really!! Didn't get to 40 and thought it would be a good idea to do.
Very much on a bucket list for some after a certain age
How many
1971 and then passed in a car about six months later, my parents booked a course of driving lessons for my birthday...
Finally did
mine in '08, age 27, mostly to get rid of the L plates
**17 **
Booked the test for as soon as possible, was a jolly long wait though (several months). Read a couple of books on riding while 16, started riding on my 17th birthday.
Old man was keen to teach me to drive, so passed the car test a bit later that year - so got the lot before 18.
aged 17 ...
reason , cos i wanted to !!!!" />
wide open till you see god ... THEN brake
I passed my
car test after my bike, I think in 1983 without looking. A lifetime ago.
I used to think Centurion helmets were cool with the popper peak
Why ? or have I missed something!!
Centurian Helmets
I had one of those - in yellow - with a popper peak. Thought it was the bees knees. Then I got a Griffin full face. (1978ish)
Finally took my test when I was 35! (Having got rid of a husband that hates bikes)
If it ain't fun, don't do it
why bb ??
cos i thought if i got a big bike i'd stand a better chance of attracting the ' ladies '
only joking actually was just listening to ' bat out of hell ' & this is a photo that spings to mind when the word ' hell ' is mentioned ..
whatever you do , dont mention the word ' tampax ' cos you DONT wanna see what pic that brings up ?
p.s also had a centurian helmet ( full face ) circa 80 / 81
wide open till you see god ... THEN brake
I think I'm too old to understand
**ya **
never too old
certain words or phrases bring up certain images in my mind & i try to find a pic that relates to said word or phrase ..
understand now
wide open till you see god ... THEN brake
was the year when i was 21 and thought a whole lot less of the parents threat of saying we will make you homeless if you do.................i passed and me ol dears even run me 50 mls to pick up my first bike...............a z250 twin.........................and once home my ol man's first words were give us a shot...........having family in the NHS didnt help none with their saying of your a good organ donner ..............but they are all still with us and glad to see me when i turn up on bike or car " />
my bro
had the same conversation, lost all his fingers and knackered his knee and also landed on a panda car
Didn't lose his life on a bike tho and remember so many good days on the track and field
I passed my motorcycle test
in April 1967 in the morning. In the afternoon I passed my car test. I had the same examiner on both occasions. I think I paid 7/6d (35p) for the bike test and 15/- (75p) for the car test. To hire the driving school car for two hours cost £2 that included petrol too.
was 17 both tests
pasrd car 1st time had a mk 1 1300 delux escort (green)
real bird puller
bike 3rd time ? 350 ypvs powervalve !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wasn;t 7/6d 37.5 pence
those were the days my friend .....
when and why?
1973, and I had joined the RAF, almost 18 years old, and needed wheels... Bought a brand new Yam RD200 electric. Candy orange and beautiful Three hundred and odd quid I should think The next bike, a Suzuki T500L, was £573 brand new...
VOLVO, built by Swedes, usually driven by other vegetables.....
Bike test in 1974
and then, again, in 2005, thanks to DVLA and the long running entitlement removal saga. Still really cross about it. Try explaining that to your insurance company
Try to be a sparkly unicorn, not a miserable cow.
Bike riding experience
Started spectating practice sessions at my local speedway track from about 5-6years of age. Was helping riders with their spannering by the time I was 8. Was being leant speedway bikes to ride on the track by the time I was 12. Started road racing when I was 19 and passed my bike test then aswell. That was all over a couple of decades ago
passed part 1 seven days after 17th birthday then part 2 was 3 months later.car test passed later same yea .why i did test well didnt want to stay on a yb100 for any longer than needed,had my eyes on an rg250 which i got to via dt175mx
Passed Mod 2 about three weeks ago, Mod 1 about two months ago, age 28.
Took the tests to get rid of the L Plates (on a 125cc commuting for a couple of years) before the new rules come in.

text: San Antonio, TX , Dec. 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Biglari Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BH) encourages every shareholder of Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. (NASDAQ: CBRL), particularly institutional ones, to fully read the report of Glass Lewis & Co. Glass Lewis accurately depicted the issues facing shareholders. In our view, the reason the Board of Cracker Barrel does not agree with the report is because Glass Lewis relied on facts and public information not on ambiguous, nebulous, and faulty rhetoric. As Glass Lewis said accurately, "Cracker Barrel's performance has been poor compared to peers over short, medium and long periods using a variety of metrics. Our concerns include stagnant sales, below-average earnings growth and declining customer traffic. The results unfortunately justify Cracker Barrel's persistent discounted market valuation. Combined, the shareholder return performance, operational performance and discounted valuation are severe enough, in our view, to warrant a board-level change." Clearly, the most recent amendment to its poison pill discourages any shareholder from being both a significant owner and a 13D filer -- a marker of a board interested in protecting itself. Despite the Company's attempt to appear reasonable, once one reads the fine print, the intentions are quite transparent. Plainly, Glass Lewis has been seeing through the Board's actions. Glass Lewis cited "governance-related concerns. These include certain hallmarks of an entrenched board…." Glass Lewis added, "Ultimately, despite the Company's concerns regarding Mr. Biglari….we believe [Mr. Biglari's] track record of increasing shareholder value and improving operation performance would benefit the Cracker Barrel board. We discount many of the board's concerns, which are perhaps typical of an entrenched board during a proxy fight." "In sum, we believe performance, operational and governance problems exist at Cracker Barrel, which when combined, are severe enough to warrant a change at the Company. Despite the Company's recent positive changes, which were at least somewhat reactionary to [Biglari's] prodding, problems remain at the Company….[W]e believe Mr. Biglari still has much to contribute to the board that would potentially enhance value for all shareholders."

CONCORD--Chief Justice David A. Brock announced today that Dorothy L. Palmer, of Ossipee, N.H., the senior deputy register of probate in Carroll County, is the February winner of the Spirit of the Judiciary Award.
Palmers reliability, good advice and sense of humor are a vital part of the team spirit within the probate office, said Probate Register Gail Monet. "Dottie is kind of the glue that keeps us together," said Monet. On days when "youve have had it," Monet said, Palmer is a "stabilizing force" helping everyone to balance the ups and downs.
"She has that calming effect on us," said Monet who joined with deputy register Jacqueline K. Carroll in nominating Palmer for recognition.
Palmer, who has worked in the probate office for 10 years, said she was "shocked" to win the award. A certificate will be presented to her March 14 during a ceremony at the Supreme Court, attended by all the justices.
"Im just a little country girl born and raised here in town so its quite an honor for me," Palmer said.
She said people appreciate the team spirit and relaxed atmosphere in the Carroll County registers office, especially because probate matters--estate work following a death, guardianships and adoptions--can be very emotional issues.
"People call and come in and thank us for what assistance we have been able to give them," Palmer said. "Thats quite rewarding."
Chief Justice Brock established the Spirit of the Judiciary Award in December 1999 to recognize examples of outstanding public service within the Judicial Branch.
"These devoted employees, and so many more in courthouses throughout the state, are the ones to make the justice system work day after day," Brock said. "This award is just one way to express our thanks," the Chief Justice added.

Animal Behaviorist Temple Grandin Speaks on Struggle with Autism
CHICO, Calif. - Chico state got a visit today from a well known animal behaviorist and autism activist.
Temple Grandin lectured to three full houses in the student union auditorium.
Grandin is an animal science professor at Colorado State University.
Her life story was the subject of an Emmy-winning film on HBO.
She spoke today about trying to break into the male-dominated agriculture industry in the 1970's and her lifelong struggle with autism.
?Handling cattle was totally a man's thing. It was really difficult,? said Grandin. ?I had to work really hard to excel in that. Since I was a woman, I had to work three times harder.?
She told us she wouldn't have made it without a lot of help along the way.
?The thing that kept me going was that there were some ranchers that really believed in what I was doing,? said Grandin. ?And there were some good cattle feeding people that believed in what I was doing and they had me design equipment for them.?
Grandin says one of the biggest impediments many people face is the education system.
She says more has to be done to prepare students for the real world.

Date of Stay: June, 2015
A small (27 sites) very nice park for an overnight or several days. Make your reservations in advance and check the board for your site number as the office is not staffed all the time. Well maintained gravel roads with level concrete pads for the camper, good cable and Wi-Fi, didn't use the bath house or restrooms although they were clean and well stocked. The sign at the entrance is small and easy to miss and the traffic pattern is a little confusing at first. Several mom-pop style restaurants within a few miles and larger stores in nearby Meridian. We have stayed here twice and will do so again when visiting relatives in the area.
Date of Stay: July, 2013
Great campground, one of the best we have ever stayed in. Very clean, well kept grounds; large sites, lots of green space. Several bath houses that were also clean and well stocked. Highly recommend this campground.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
What a dump! Campground is filled with old run down trailers surrounded by trash and broken down vehicles. Most sites are full time residents, some with fences, decks and patio covers. Only 5 or 6 sites for transients that are very narrow. Bath house is filthy and smells; laundry has old rusty washers and dryers. Would never stay here again.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
This park seems old and tired, not "big rig" friendly. It has only a few 50amp sites and water pressure was only 20 PSI. Restrooms were not very clean. There are a lot of seasonal/full-time units and traffic at all hours. Live music on Saturday night was extremely loud (and bad). Only good thing was the pool. Would not stay here again if there is anything else available.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
Very nice campground with friendly and helpful staff. Restrooms and showers were clean and well stocked. Our site was a very long pull-through, which could also be used as a "double" site for smaller units. The grounds were well kept and the view was great. The CG is relatively close to the Natural Bridge and Luray Caverns which we visited. There are lots of activities for kids and plenty of room for them to play. We would definitely stay here again.

Date of Stay: April, 2012
We stay at this park often, & we just love it! The park is clean, quiet, & safe. The river area is beautiful & full of wildlife. Large pull through spaces, some with grass & large shade trees. The Lilac bushes were in bloom this weekend & filled the park with their wonderful fragrance. Owners are on site & always friendly & accommodating.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
My family has been coming to Ruins Road RV Park since it opened in 1992. We have always enjoyed our experience. The Owners are always very helpful and courteous. They have a nice river/camping area with a covered Ramada, it is very peaceful and full of wildlife. I think the price per night is very reasonable & is within biking or walking distance to the Aztec Ruins Nat'l Monument (saves gas). I would like to know why the previous reviewer stayed here if they didn't offer the amenities he or she wanted. I have never found a park with bathrooms, showers & laundry facilities for under $20.00
Date of Stay: June, 2011
Ok park with not many shade trees. Stayed here because it was within walking distance of a Casino.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
Very nice, quiet park. Centrally located near many attractions. Great breakfast. Great scenery.

The civil lines police have registered a case against some Youth Congress workers for pasting picture of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on a 108 ambulance. Among those booked under the Prevention of Defacement of Property Act is former district Youth Congress chief Vikas Soni.
The Youth Congress activists had pasted the picture of the Prime Minister on the ambulance a couple of days back. The YC workers had been claiming that the ambulance service was a central scheme and Punjab government was taking undue credit by pasting chief minister Parkash Singh Badal's picture on the ambulances.
Interestingly, in a tit-for-tat act, some Youth Akali Dal leaders had pasted pictures of leaders of their party at the railway station. The police are yet to take action in this connection.
Reacting to the case registered against him, Vikas Soni said, "This is clear vendetta. We can't say much but we will definitely continue with our protests. If the police are neutral they must also register a case against Youth Akali Dal activists who had pasted posters of their leaders at the railway station."
When contacted Amritsar police commissioner Ram Singh said, "A case has been registered against the Congress leaders under the Prevention of Defacement of Property Act." When pointed out that YAD activists too had passed posters at the railway station, he said that he was not aware of that.

When Batman flew by helicopter over Hong Kong harbour five years ago, he made minor movie history. Film aficionados will know that the scene from The Dark Knight was the first in a major feature film to be shot with an IMAX camera. The director, Christopher Nolan, chose it for one reason – the pictures it captures are simply enormous.
It was a wise decision. A single glance doesn't really do Hong Kong's iconic panorama justice, but by taking to the skies, the Caped Crusader was being a bit of a wimp. In 1881, a Scottish railwayman called Alexander Findlay Smith became convinced of the possibility of building a funicular railway up the impossibly steep Victoria Peak, the island's highest mountain. Now, his engineering is Hong Kong's most popular attraction.
The Peak Tram, as it has become known, has its Lower Terminus on Garden Road (00 852 2522 0922; thepeak.com.hk/en; return HK$40/£3.50). It takes around five minutes to travel the 1,400 metres to the top, gaining more than 400 metres in height as it does so. Suddenly, the entire city spreads out before you like a tablecloth thrown over the earth.
Rows of gleaming metal towers shoot from beside the calm waters of the harbour up to the rolling forested hills – indeed it's the kind of vista that does demand an IMAX lens to take it in.
After experiencing this overview, take the tram back down and from the terminus in Central – Hong Kong's glistening business district – head up Garden Road until you reach the Bank of China Tower whose triangular glass panels make it stand out from the crowd. This is Downtown – the belly of the beast, but its historical centre too. Turn left on to Queens Road Central, left again on to D'Aguilar Street, and then take your first right on to Stanley Street. The sound of greedy slurping indicates your arrival in one of the last vestiges of Hong Kong's once thriving street food scene. Not so long ago, you'd find hundreds of dai pai dong in Hong Kong, but today only 28 official open-air food stalls remain.
The words translate as "big licence"; after the Second World War, special street food licences – with larger badges than usual – were given out in haste to the struggling families of deceased soldiers or civil servants so that they could earn a living. But almost all have since fallen victim to air-conditioned progress. However, several stalls serve authentic dim sum, which roughly means "a little bit from the heart". Sing Kee, at Nos 9 & 10 is the busiest, and with good reason. The service is a little brisk, but the food is authentic. Cuttlefish is popular, as are fish-skin dumplings. There's also eggs with shrimp for the less adventurous.
Carry on west to where Stanley Street crosses Cochrane Street and take the Mid-Levels Escalator up to Hollywood Road, right at the top. These 800-metre-long, covered escalators, opened in 1993, are now an important commuter route which tackles Hong Kong's hilly terrain and bustling traffic. From 6am to 10am, they run downhill, after which point they are switched in the other direction.
Head west along Hollywood Road as it, and the surrounding streets, transform into a long stretch of stalls and antique shops, some cheap and cheerful, many eye-wateringly expensive. A few hundred metres further on, you'll find the largest of Hong Kong's Man Mo Taoist Temples that honour two of the many hundreds of gods: War and Literature. Here the two figures sit side by side, one brandishing a pen, the other a sword. Behind the red and gold doors, the air is alive with incense smoke. As recently as 100 years ago, it is maintained that when disputes could not be solved by British law, they would be settled here using a curious game of chance involving chicken's blood and pieces of yellow paper.
A little further along Hollywood Road, turn right and take the stairs down to Queens Road Central. Turn left on to the escalators down to Connaught Road and then turn right to Hong Kong Central Station. This might seem an unusual location for a bite to eat, but it contains the third and newest branch of a Hong Kong institution, Tim Ho Wan (Hong Kong Station Podium Level 1, IFC Mall; 00 852 2332 3078; timhowan.com). The original (in nearby Kowloon) is the world's cheapest Michelin-starred restaurant. A di m sum meal, including the signature barbecue pork buns, can be bought for around £5.
Come out of the other end of Hong Kong Central Station and walk along the harbour front at Lung Wo Road to Hong Kong's Exhibition Centre, a little low-rise blob framed by the skyscrapers that surround it. From 23-26 May it will be hosting, for the first time, Art Basel. More than 250 galleries from 35 countries will be exhibiting at the contemporary art show, and leading artists will be involved in panel discussions.
Where the world's riches go, high-end art follows, and China is now the world's second-largest market. Hong Kong might just be embarking on the most exciting chapter in its history.
Fresh cuts
Art Basel is at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, 1 Expo Drive (00 852 2824 2381; artbasel.com) from 23-26 May. Other galleries throughout the city are also taking part. Tickets HK$250 (£21).
Rula Bula (58-62 D'Aguilar Street; 00 852 2179 5225; rulabula.com.hk) deals in "molecular cocktails" and DJs of world renown. An abbreviation from the Irish expression "Ri Ra agus Rúla Búla", meaning "uproar and commotion", it is the latest in a long line of offerings to the Hong Kong social scene from expatriate Irishman Cathal Kiely.
Enomod (1-5 Elgin Street; 00 852 2555 6065; facebook.com/enomod) is a new Mediterranean "social dining experience". Cheeses, cold cuts, delicate tapas-style fish dishes and wine by the carafe set among seven different areas – including charcuterie counter, lounge area, communal dining tables and draught wine corner.

Day 20
The snowdrops are here! Snowy white and green joy.
Polly Robinson © 2013
by Polly 12 Comments
Hooray for snowdrops!
Courageous little plants 🙂
How lovely! I have been writing small stones this month, too, but posting some on one of my other blogs (not DWLA). I realized that doing this is like meditating every day. What a great opening for other writing each day, too!
Couldn't agree more, Luanne. Such good fun ~ gets the grey matter working gently 🙂
Such charming, delicate flowers…we don't have them where I live. I suppose too warm here.
They're so pretty ~ didn't know you don't have them where you are …
I love snowdrops – My Mum once sat up all night and sewed snow drops on a dress for a fancy dress party – I lost to cat woman – gutted!!!! (I was 8!)
Aw, how lovely that my small stone brought back such a lovely memory of something your mum did for you ~ even if you did lose to cat woman [bummer] ~ no taste, some people 😉
I was a winner in my Mum's eyes 🙂
I was for my mum too … she dressed me as a gypsy girl for a party once and was livid that I didn't win (!) I can remember feeling quite sorry for her, I was only about 6, but she cared about it so much more than I … guess she'd invested a lot of time into it …
My outfit had to reside in the fridge all night to keep it fresh! Brrrrr! I was robbed – I should have won for the endurance of a refrigerated dress!
I know what you mean – I was devastated because my Mum had spent all night sewing on individual snowdrops!
Catwoman had black gloves, black trousers and tshirt, claws made of foil and whiskers drawn on her cheeks – I mean – I ask you!!!
No comparison! Love that the dress was in the fridge … brrrr! 🙂

Knight Capital, the American broker which lost $440 million (£283 million) after its software caused a "flash crash", is said to be on the brink of securing survival by raising $400 million from investors.
Reports suggest that Knight — fighting to stay afloat since a computer glitch pumped orders through stock exchanges last Wednesday — is raising the funds from a pool of investors including private equity firm Blackstone, and rival trading firm Getco.
Knight is raising the funds by issuing convertible bonds representing a stake of up to 75% in the company, according to Bloomberg. David Whitcomb, founder of Citigroup-owned rival Automated Trading Desk, said: "It is not too surprising that among the sources of financing for Knight are some of their customers. Their customers want to keep a diverse set of market markers going to maintain competition."
Knight managed to limp towards the weekend with short-term funding before a more permanent solution could be thrashed out. The dramatic glitch saw 148 stock prices fluctuate wildly due to a software bug, sending its shares plunging more than 75% last week.
The firm is responsible for trading at least 10% of all US share orders, triggering calls in Congress for an examination into whether the explosion of algorithmic trading machines in recent years risks damaging the integrity of the US stock market.
Securities and Exchange Commission chairman Mary Schapiro called the Knight mishap "unacceptable" and has promised regulation to avoid a repeat.

Yeah Smith and Moore rotating at DE would be really nice to see. Two quick pass rushing specialist type DE's who could rack up some nice sack numbers. I still think your boy Donald would be a really nice addition in the 2nd if he is available. Dude is a monster!

Strick's 2015 All-Sleeper Team - http://boards.giants.com/showthread....t=sleeper+team
I really think Donald goes RD1 when said and done. I'm gonna do my top hopeful draft again really soon now that many underclassmen have made there decisons.. I'd still find it hard pressed for anyone better to fall to us in RD2 then donald. His pass rush ability is about as good as i've seen in some time from the interior of the dline.
This is my mock, now knowing most of the underclassmen that are declaring.. Obviously this changes things some, as alot of guys we were unsure if they would elect to come out or go back to school. Giants picking 12th overall.. No 7th rd pick because of Jon Beason aquisition.
1). CJ Mosley ILB/OLB Alabama- Right now, i'm going with the safe pick in Mosley. I've changed from Mike Evans because of how many WR's have declared. WR is way deeper then LB this yr.. Mosley would be a huge boost to our defense and a LB core then needs a heavy dose of talent.. If we resign Beason, we could start Mosley at WLB with Beason at MLB, making a formidable duo in the LB core.. Mosley can defend the pass really well and also is solid in supporting the run. Hes versatile enough to play inside and out..
2). Aaron Donald DT Pittsburgh- If Donald is there in the 2nd for us, we better pounce. Adding this inside pass rusher along with Mosley would give are defense a huge boost. A core of JPP, Prince, Mosley, Donald, and Big Hank, and W.Hill, has the makings of a elite defense in the future...
3).Troy Niklas TE Notre Dame- I think he should of returned to ND for another yr of seasoning, but i certainly woulden't mind getting this big, talented, handsy TE in the 3rd rd.. He has the size to become a elite blocker and the hands to be huge in the pass game, and especially the redzone.. Eli would form a great repoire with Niklas, i believe..
4).Andre Williams RB Boston College- A Coughlin/Reese type draft pick here. Williams plays the style that Coughlin and Co really love. Smash mouth, with the abiity to break tackles and pile up tough yards.. Not much in the pass game though.. But hopefully David Wilson can grow into taht 3rd down back.
5).Cody Hoffman WR Byu- If Hoffman is here, i love the pick.. Hes a good sized possesion WR, with very good hands, and number 1 type upside..Kinda has a game similar to that of soon to be Ex-Giant Hakeem nicks..
6).Dakota Dozier G Furman- Solid 6th rd pick. Dozier will bring depth to the interior of our oline and possibly more down the line..
Prince Rolle Hill McBride
Mosley Beason Rivers
JPP Hankins Donald Moore
This would be how i'd see our defense stacking up next yr with my draft.. Thats a solid defense right there..
Was looking at 2007's draft, and didn't quite realize how many total studs were in that draft. Look at some of these names that were in that draft.
Calvin Johnson
Joe Thomas
Adrien Peterson
Patrick Willis
Marshawn Lynch
Dwayne Bowe
Joe Staley
Lawerence Timmons
Jonathan Beason
Darrelle Revis
Those are just first rders. We got Aaron Ross, in case you didn't know.
It seems like our pro personnel department has found more castoff gems then Reese has in the mid to late rounds of the draft.

Assessment Practices Survey Report Released for Sierra County

Assessment Practices Survey Report Released for Sierra County
The State Board of Equalization (BOE) today released an assessment practices survey report on Sierra County.
Once every five years the BOE conducts a review of each county's property tax assessment functions to determine whether properties are being assessed properly and to identify areas where improvements should be made. Issued as an "Assessment Practices Survey," the report provides an overview of how well the duties of the assessor are performed and includes recommendations to correct assessment deficiencies and improve compliance with state law.
The BOE found that most properties in Sierra County are being assessed properly, and the overall quality of the assessment roll meets the minimum standards required by the state to qualify for augmentation funds. However, the report provides ten recommendations to improve the effectiveness of the assessor's operations. Included among those recommendations are the following:
- Request the board of supervisors to revise an assessment appeal rule to conform to law.
- Bring the mandatory audit program to current status.
- Assess computers in the manner recommended by the BOE.
The review focused on the quality of the 2000-2001 Sierra County assessment roll, which contained 5,459 assessments having a total enrolled value of $338 million.
