Re-grading around foundation?
We bought a house in December and the home inspector noted that the gutter downspouts were directed toward the house foundation (poured concrete basement) rather than away and there are four locations around the foundation where the soil actually dips leaving depressions (about 8" x 36 to 48" x 4" deep) against the foundations. The inspector suggested re-directing the downspouts and "re-grading" around the foundation.
I have already added extensions and re-directed the downspouts. During the melting and rain this spring I noted that the four depressions would fill with standing water against the concrete foundation (and we would get minor leaking into the unfinished basement corresponding to the standing water locations.
Now that we have some warmer weather I would like to fill the depressions and slope the ground away from the house around the entire foundation. I'm guessing I could have some gravel/soil dumped in the yard by a local supplier and use a wheelbarrow and a shovel to do this but I'm completely stumped by the wide variety of gravel and soil available.
Do I just get top spoil and shovel it on filling the depressions and adding soil around the foundation until it is sloped away? Would this just wash away in heavy rain? Should I put a layer of gravel down first and then cover it with soil?
Any help would be appreciated!
We have the same issue and are about to tackle it this weekend. Did you ever get an answer to your questions?
Not on line but I did wind up talking to a local sand/gravel wholesaler and they suggested a high clay content sand for regrading. We used it filling the holes and sloping it about 1' over 6'. We had no leaks during the melting and rain this spring.
We plan on installing railroad ties around a 25'x10' area and filling it with pea stone this summer but it looks like you could put topsoil right on top of the clay sand if you wanted grass or plants.
Good Luck!
that's perfect since our soil actually has a high clay content...I believe we graded to similar dimensions as you as well.
Thanks for the reply!
We bought our house last June and had the EXACT same problem - only our inspector didn't see anything in advance. Every new house comes with surprises!!
Fortunately we have a family friend with an excavator and he came in and dug a large "dry well" in our back yard (big ditch filled with larger gravel and covered back over with dirt). All the leader drains were directed to this drainage area and the dirt dug out to create the was used to fill in the dips by the foundation and regrade the yard toward the dry well. We also had to bring in some "fill" - much cheaper than top soil because it's not any good for growing (too rocky and no nutrients). We have not had any water in our basement since (all winter and so far in the rainy New England Spring) and are now in the process of growing a new lawn in a load of top soil laid right on top of the fill.
So far so good!!
I am in the same boat. I need to order a ton of top soil and scatter it all over the front of my yard to get some nice new seed in there.
We live on a little over a quarter acre and brought in two loads (high sided pick-up truck size) to cover our front and back yard, a total of approximately 85'x160'. They shoveled the soil into small piles evenly spaced throughout the yard and then spread each of those out to make sure it was even (about 4"-6" deep) and didn't affect the proper grading of the yard. It is starting to grow in at various rates so it is still difficult to tell what the overall "fullness" will be. We used a seed mix because of our location and sun/shade situation.
One thing to consider when adding top soil is to add stones for erosion control. I used to dig around my house to put in plants and always wondered why the soil was rocky. It's the stone that's added that prevents the dirt alone from eroding away.
Along the perimeter of your house, consider adding about 6-12" width of black tarp and then put stone mulch over that. This will keep the soil underneath from washing away and will keep the soil dry along the perimeter in an attempt to deter termites.
We heard smaller rocks were good for irrigation too. Fortunately we live in a part of New England where there are PLENTY of rocks.
I've been told that smaller rocks in the soil help with the flow of moisture. Maybe that is just an old wives tale to make us feel better about our irreversibly rocky soil?

Steve Cullen Healthy Heart Run/Walk on Feb. 16 to Benefit Cardiac Research at the Medical College of Wisconsin
The 17th Annual Steve Cullen Healthy Heart Club Run & Walk will be held on Saturday, February 16 at 10 a.m. at Wil-O-Way Recreation Center, 10602 Underwood Parkway in Wauwatosa. The event supports heart research at the internationally recognized Cardiovascular Center at the Medical College of Wisconsin, in which more than 170 faculty physicians and research scientists study the causes, prevention and treatment of heart disease. Cullen Run/Walk proceeds have helped various research programs including studies to identify genetic risk factors of heart disease, to investigate the Female Athlete Triad and its link to heart disease, to learn more about the causes of hypertension, and to better understand the correlation between plaque buildup and coronary artery disease.
The Cullen Run/Walk is an 8-kilometer USA Track and Field (USATF) competitive run and a 2-mile fun run/walk along the scenic Underwood Parkway in Wauwatosa. Sponsored by the Cullen family and the Badgerland Striders, the event includes Cullen Family & Friends Chili, refreshments, food, exercise fitness consultants, an awards ceremony and live music for the entire family. Participants will also receive a Dry-Weave Tech running shirt.
The event is held in memory of Steve Cullen, a former Milwaukee alderman, who died in 1995 at age 40 of sudden cardiac arrhythmia. His father, at age 41, and two brothers, ages 53 and 51, also died of heart disease. The Cullen Run/Walk has grown in attendance by over 500% since its inception, encouraging heart healthy lifestyles for all participants, their families and friends. The event has raised more than $250,000 for cardiovascular research and awareness.
Register online, by mail or in person. Registration is $30 for individuals, $100 for families of four. Team registration is encouraged for companies, schools and organizations with five or more participants who compete for the "Biggest Heart" trophy (most dollars raised for heart research) or the "Fleetest Feet" trophies (fastest times for male, female and mixed teams).
For more information and to register for the event, go to www.badgerlandstriders.org.
Cullen Run/Walk Co-Founder and Chair is Gael Garbarino Cullen, a member of the Cardiovascular Center Advisory Board, who organizes the event in honor of her late husband, Steve Cullen. Honorary Co-Chairs include Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and WISN-TV's Kathy Mykleby and Mike Gousha.

Amid reports of red minuses in adidas's net profit column for the opening half of 2014, the German giant–and its burgeoning fan base–has been forced to rethink its popular status. Despite its dominance in the World Cup and a bevy of strategic, sharp collaborations, the three-striped brand has been cost the last laugh–a 16% drop in gains to be specific. Some pundits chalk this up to a consequence of adidas's budget focus on marketing the summer games, which left the brand's myriad other concentrations to the (relative) wayside. While finance is a game of hard facts, Business of Fashion astutely introduces the intangible "cool factor" into its analysis of this occurrence. An essential read on marketing that is applicable to entrepreneurs and consumers alike, head here to read the full article on how–and whether–adidas can beat the odds using the things money can't buy.

The Telegraph today begins a 5 day series rolling out the names of the top 50 most influential persons in the Anglican Communion. Not influential as in The Queen or George H. W. Bush, but as in those with influence within the communion. Today they give us names 41-50.
The list was drawn up with the help of a panel, "the Rt Rev Nicholas Baines, Bishop of Croydon; Giles Fraser, vicar of Putney; Rachel Boulding, deputy editor, Church Times; Jim Naughton, communications officer for the Diocese of Washington; the Rev Canon Dr Jane Shaw, Fellow and Dean of Divinity of New College, Oxford; Andrew Carey, columnist, Church of England Newspaper."
Who do you expect to see in the top 50? Who would you like to see? Play along below, or at The Telegraph.

Can't we have one of those deck-of-cards things? We'd need two more names, to make 52 – and maybe a couple of jokers?
Desmond Tutu – most influential, others – Bonnie Anderson – President of the House of Deputies, Trevor Mwamba – bishop of Botswana, Carol Cole Flanagan for making lobbying a high art.
Bishop Mdimi Mhogolo of Central Tanganyika for his tireless work in garnering international aid in helping care for thousands of orphans in his diocese; and his courageous, solitary stand in the Tanzania House of Bishops late last year insisting on their retaining some level of communion with the The Episcopal Church.
Dr. Jenny Plane Te Paa, Principal of Te Rau Kahikatea at St. John's College, Aukland, in the Anglican Church of New Zealand, for her passionate devotion to bringing the voice of women, indigenous peoples, and the oppressed of the world into conversation at all levels of the Anglican Communion.
The everyday, 30-something, African Anglican woman who, while she might have one of a million names and yet no name in the halls of power, together with her sisters in Christ, offers from her being some of the strongest and most life-giving Christian witness on the ground of the Communion.
The Rev. Dr. A. Katherine Grieb, New Testament professor at Virginia Theological Seminary and an observer of the Covenant process along with Ephraim Radner.

Char siu pork2013-06-23
Char siu pork is of Cantonese origin where skewers of pork meat is marinated in a honey sauce, and then roast in oven to charred, savory, and sticky sweet perfection. Char siu (Chinese: 叉燒, literally "fork-roast"; also Romanised chasu, cha siu, cha shao, char siew) is a popular way to flavor and prepare barbecued pork in Cantonese cuisine.The name translates as "fork-roasted," and describes the method of hanging strips of marinated meat on forked skewers and roasting them in an oven or over an open fire.This is the lovely, sticky, red-coated pork you see in Chinese barbecue restaurants – it smells divine as it's cooking and is very easy and yummy.In Hong Kong, char siu is usually purchased from a
siu mei establishment, which specializes in meat dishes—char siu pork, soy sauce chicken, white cut chicken, roasted goose, roasted pork, etc.if you love your char siu (char siew) tender, juicy, moist, and a little fatty, use pork belly. If you prefer a meaty char siu (char siew), then go for pork loin. If you like it somewhere in between, then pork butt will be a great choice.
Char siu pork is either the marinade itself or the roast barbecue pork that is the most common char siu dish. As a sauce, char siu is versatile and has endless variations.Everybody loves those Chinese restaurant char siu pork. The secret is not the sauce, it's the marinade. The wine is important for the marinade because it helps penetrate the meat, and even if you're a teetotaler, don't worry—there isn't any measurable alcohol in the pork.
In this recipe for Char Siu, the Chinese version of barbecue, the pork is cooked in the electric oven for an extra tender, juicy, and stress-free meal. I promise this will be the most succulent, tender, tasty pork you have ever eaten!
- pork belly 500g
- 2 tablespoons Char siu source
- 1 tablespoon soy source
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 10ml Rumwine
Step 1
Prepare the pork pelly.
Step 2
Add 2 tablespoons Char siu source,1 tablespoon soy source,1 tablespoon honey,add 10ml Rumwine(or rice wine,cooking wine),coat well.Marinade overnight.Don't marinate in a plastic bowl. The coloring might stain it.
Step 3
Heat your cooker to 300°F for 30 minutes.underside up; then turn meat side up, paint with more marinade sauce until cooked through.
Step 4
Remove pork from electric oven.
Step 5
Thickly slice and serve.

Hi All,
Same issue fault code 5e20 and warning lights - but on earlier E46 - anyone know if there is a repair kit for these or if they had a separate sensor so cost of repair is not too bad?
Car is now 8 years old with 75k miles- bought from dealer less than a year ago and he ignored my requests to assist with this getting fixed.
EDIT: Recognise this should be in E46 section...

Hi there
I just had my Z4 warning lights diagnosed by an independent BMW garage and it came back with 5E20 pressure sensor and 5E24 pressure sensor. It's a 2004 car with only 28k miles so what is my best course of action to avoid the 1824 pounds I was quoted for a new hydro unit DCS?
If I take it to a dealer will they be able to get a repair kit instead as mentioned above for some other BMWs at a cost of around 400 pounds?
Please help! This is a scary bill I really want to avoid if at all possible!!
Not a long job to fit them but the part is a stupid price. The problem with the Teves units are that the pressure sensors are built into the modulator and the modulator hydro units cannot be opened or repaired...
The only way around it is to try and find a second hand unit from a breakers, but that will still need coding to your car. But it is a gamble if the second hand unit will do the same thing as yours...

Discover The Rich Diversity Of New York City's Neighborhoods
Photo: © Solnechnaja | Dreamstime.com
A day in New York usually centers in mid-Manhattan, that vibrant pastiche of theaters, museums, restaurants and shops. But step away for an afternoon. Venture into the far reaches of Manhattan, into other boroughs, and discover the rich diversity of the city, the uniqueness of its offerings, its singular, fascinating worlds.
In northernmost Manhattan, for instance, one finds The Cloisters, the only museum in the United States dedicated solely to medieval art. Composed of cloisters, apses and altars taken from the ruins of 12th- to 15th-century European monasteries and reassembled as part of its building, The Cloisters is a hauntingly evocative place where you leave centuries behind and enter times before our time.
In Queens, jazz fans will find no trumpets in Louis Armstrong's home. What they will encounter is Armstrong's spirit in a cozy setting he called his haven, furnished just as it was when he and his wife lived here. On the wall opposite the desk where Louis wrote his books and catalogued his tape recordings hangs his portrait painted by the artist Antonio Benedetto, better known as Tony Bennett.
In the Bronx, on a triangle of land, sits the small Edgar Allan Poe Cottage. He moved here in 1846 hoping the country air would help his tubercular wife. It did not. She died the next year. Poe wrote "Annabel Lee," "The Bells" and many of his most famous works here. It was his last home.
The borough also boasts one of the world's greatest zoos, the Bronx Zoo, spread over 265 acres and home to more than 4,000 animals of 650 species, most housed in naturalistic habitats. Also here, The New York Botanical Garden offers 50 varied gardens and 30,000 trees across 250 acres.
Less than a half-hour from Manhattan, the Brooklyn Museum, one of the oldest and largest in the country, harbors rich collections dating back to the Egyptians and forward to contemporary art.
Returning to Manhattan for dinner, some suggestions: A French bistro awaits at Benoit. For Italian, one recommendation is SD26. For an Indian meal, go to Mitali East; for Chinese, try Old Shanghai Deluxe. For the new, the hot, the trendy, consider Lafayette, Charlie Bird or Pearl & Ash.

Chevrolet 406 CI Engine Build - Chevy High Performance
first thing
Howard's suggested me the small base roller #119995-S but, i can't find it anywhere. It has almost the same specs than the 110885-10
first thing I see in these magazine builds,especially with flat tappet cams(hydraulic) the sweet spot in the RPM range is 41-5600 rpm.
the roller cam engines usually have a wider spread in the sweet spot,closer to 2k,that type of engine is more than noticably better to drive. A lot of flat tappet hydraulic cams peak,then roll off in power very quickly.
Im not saying you have to rev to 6500 rpm,but once you feel that power you will at least understand why roller cams exist.
all the new cars rev 6500 from the factory

News and Press releases
The Viavoice - BPCE barometer survey of French consumer plans - September 2012
Consumer fears linked to purchasing power continue to escalate: at present, the majority of France's population (53%) expects their purchasing power to deteriorate over the next three months, i.e. a major increase of 7 points in the space of one month and 17 points since May. This stark trend is explained by the current climate of austerity and the fact that it is expected to last: after two austerity plans in 2011, and given that today's extremely harsh economic backdrop makes an increase in income highly unlikely, households anticipate a new hike in their fixed costs in the short term.
Strong increase in fears linked to taxation and the price of gas
Today, there are two items of expenditure that are a growing source of concern for households: taxation which was cited by 37% of people surveyed (+6), and the price of gas which was cited by 25% (+6) - both of which appear to be fuelled by two recent announcements. The first is the 20 billion euro increase in mandatory tax contributions for 2013, and the second is the 2% increase in the price of gas from October 1st (which may even increase further at the start of 2013).
What is more, these growing constraints on household income come at a time when key costs are still high:
the price of petrol is still high despite the 3-cent cut in the tax per litre passed at the end of August, and is still a major worry for 41% of the French population (+1);
- Food prices are still the biggest cause for concern (cited by 45% of consumers surveyed, +4).
Rising fears as to their purchasing power are the consequence of three key concrete concerns amongst households, particularly low-income households, which have been accumulating for several months now: new increases in spending (tax, gas), spending that remains wedged at a high level (energy, housing), and stagnating wages as a result of the slowdown in economic activity.
Shrinking purchasing intentions and savings
The new downturn in the outlook for purchasing power will most likely trigger a contraction in consumption and savings: over the next three months, less than 38% of French people expect to "spend less than in recent months" (+4), including 42% of those currently in employment and 45% of blue collar workers. As a result, and despite the fact that consumption has held up relatively well in France since the start of the crisis, it may shrink again in the second half of 2012 because of the anticipated loss in purchasing power:
- 33% of people surveyed expect that they will have to "reduce the amount of savings they are able to put aside" (+4);
- Real-estate acquisition plans have also fallen, with only 3% planning to buy a house or flat in the coming months (-1).
The overall climate for households after the summer holidays looks particularly bleak, and is a challenge for the government at a time when it is putting the finishing touches to its budget for 2013.
The increases in the ceilings for "Livret A" and "Livret développement durable (LDD)" regulated savings accounts are a welcome initiative
Given today's difficult economic climate, the increases in the ceilings on "Livret A" and "Livret développement durable" (LDD, former "codevi") regulated savings accounts from October 1st are an opportunity - even if it is only by 25% (from 15,300 to 19,125 euros) and even if it is far from the two-fold increase initially announced. Generally-speaking, these forms of regulated, tax-exempt and risk-free savings are still popular with the French. In concrete terms, 28% of those asked whether or not the higher ceilings would incite them to put more savings aside in a "Livret A" or "Livret développement durable account" replied "Yes, probably", and 9% replied "Yes, definitely". Those population categories that expressed the most interest notably include young adults (51% of those surveyed between the ages of 18 and 24) and those in intermediate professions (33%).

Visit Betclic Save For Later by Oddspreview staffPosted Share: 0 0 0 Get Football Alerts Related Articles See all Premier League news Liverpool are favourites to sign Wayne Bridge from Manchester City before the transfer window closes at the end of the month The Anfield club on Tuesday completed the £2.3million signing of Brad Jones from Middlesbrough and City left-back Bridge, who has been linked with a move to Anfield throughout the summer, is odds-on to join the Reds should he leave the Eastlands club this summer, which many expect to happen. With the new Premier League season now underway, clubs have until the end of the month to assemble their squads under new Premier League rules that insists clubs must submit a 25-man squad, which may pave the way for Bridge to leave City. You can claim a £20 RISK FREE bet on the new Premier League season from Betclic. If your first bet loses, you'll receive your stake back in full!Bridge's place in the City team has come under threat from the £16million signing of left-back Aleksandar Kolarov this summer - a signing that Roberto Mancini insisted is to provide competition for the former Chelsea defender. "I want two top-class players for each position," said Mancini of the signing last month, but whether Kolarov will be there to provide competition or as a replacement for Bridge remains to be seen, although the betting suggests the latter. As of Tuesday afternoon, Bridge was 4/6 with Sky Bet (£5 no deposit free bet) to join Liverpool before the transfer window closes on August 31st, with a move to Tottenham 7/1 and Aston Villa 9/1. Bridge is one of several players who could depart Eastlands this month as Roberto Mancini makes wholesale changes to his squad after a number of big money transfer deals this summer, with Craig Bellamy leaving to the club on loan and several others possibly to follow before the end of the month.

NASA researchers are helping growers improve wine quality by using remote-sensing technology to scan vineyards from high above California.
Scientists are using images taken from airplanes and satellites to map vineyard leaf area to help vintners measure ripening rate, disease incidence, soil drainage and fruit quality.
"For hundreds of years, winegrowers have known that grapes harvested from different areas in their vineyards can produce wines with unique flavors and tastes," said Tim Mondavi, winegrower and vice-chairman of Robert Mondavi Winery, Oakville, Calif. "We are now using NASA's advanced remote-sensing technologies to understand the subtle nuances of our vineyards, and with astounding results."
Researchers divided groups of vines in the study area into high-, moderate- and low-vigor areas, which have unique flavors and levels of grape maturity, allowing for different styles of wine. Results of the study confirm that the low- and moderate-vigor areas produced higher quality wines, while the high-vigor area produced medium quality wine. The winery has engaged a commercial remote-sensing vendor for 'decision support' across its Napa properties, the researchers said. Scientists also measured light levels, water status, chlorophyll and other factors on the ground.
"In certain regions of France, grapes have been grown for more than 1,700 years. Vintners in these regions have had abundant time to understand how vintage varies throughout the vineyard," explained principal investigator Lee Johnson, a research scientist at NASA's Ames Research Center in California's Silicon Valley. "By contrast, the majority of vineyard development in California's Napa Valley has occurred since the mid-1960s." Until now, Napa vintners generally have treated large 'blocks' of vines as single units for cultivation and harvest.
Remote-sensing imagery allows Robert Mondavi winegrowers to better understand micro-regions within their vineyards. "We now identify vine vigor to see weak and strong areas of growth in the vineyard, then we break up how we harvest," said Daniel Bosch, vineyard technical manager at Robert Mondavi Winery. "We can taste those differences in the grapes at harvest."
"Winemakers blend wines from different lots to create a desired flavor profile in the final wine," Johnson said. "A greater number of distinct wine lots will provide the winemaker with increased latitude in blending and serve to increase quality."
Scientists on the ground measured leaf area in selected sample sites at the Robert Mondavi Winery. The researchers then combined the ground-gathered leaf area data with aerial and satellite information to make an accurate map of the vineyard under study. Researchers used red and 'near' infrared images to monitor plant density, comparing various vine areas. Study results are scheduled for publication in the journal Applied Engineering in Agriculture, and for presentation at the Third International Conference on Geospatial Technologies in Agriculture and Forestry.
NASA 'remote sensing' of vineyards by airplane and satellite first began at Robert Mondavi Winery in 1993 to track the phylloxera infestation that was affecting northern California. From the late 1980s, California winegrowers faced destruction of their vines by infestation of the pest that kills vines by feeding on their roots. Infested areas must eventually be replanted on a phylloxera-resistant or tolerant rootstock. Additional information about NASA Ames' grapevine studies is on the Internet at:

Despite the heavy rain, howling winds, and tornado warnings, we pulled off this English Tea Party Styled Shoot. This is the perfect mix of vintage china, decadent desserts, and bright florals.

Chrome trim for dash?
Chrome trim for dash?
It was suggested that I repost this on the interior form.
I'm designing a custom dash and I would like to have chrome or polished SS edge around the opening for the instrument cluster. The opening is currently a rectangular shape with .8 inch radii on each corner.
I see plastic edge trim and adhesive backed trim advertised, but I'm not sure how good it will look.
1) Can someone recommend an edge trim, or adhesive backed product that would work well in this type of application
2) Would the product bend around the .8 inch radii or do I need to increase the radii?
3) Is there another option you have used to make such a frame?
Can you make the trim piece from a piece of sheet metal?? Seems to me that may be the best option..piece of aluminum flashing could be cut to shape for a template and make the finished piece from stainless and polish it..
I've used the chromed plastic edge trim. It is what it is. The more gradual the curves, the better it seems to work. On tight curves, it tends to twist just a bit, so it doesn't look uniform. If you are going to have a seam, you want to be very careful and use a new razor blade. Keep your cut as square as you can. If you are doing a truly custom ride, I'd look at some stainless steel options.
Thanks for the feedback.
What is the smallest radius you would recommend on the plastic edging to prevent twisting?
Sorry, not very good with math. I think the radius of a quarter is about it. that might be pressing it. The size of the trim may make a difference too. I'll check to see if I have a scrap of it left. If I do, I'll let you know.
I looked around for the scrap piece. I must have pitched it. Sorry.

"Don't you know who he is?"
I've used both and as others have said, it's basically the same. Basically.
Starting this harvest I'm a starving startling artist/
Lyrical arsonist it's arduous spitting this smartest arsenic/
I'm also a big fan of the Ichimonji TKC's. I've had a 210 gyuto for several years, and it is a great overall knife, and especially good for tomatoes, onion, etc. My son has spent a couple of years in Japan so I've taken the opportunity to purchase a slicer and a Honesuki while visiting Osaka. They are an easy company to deal with and some english is spoken in the store.
I may have an explanation as to why panda doesn't like his Carbonext. I own one and I didn't really like it either. The scales are not stable and became swollen then shrank after I sanded it. Not too comfortable to hold until I sanded the spine, choil and bolster. The main thing however, is the edge was absolute crap until I had seriously thinned it down and sharpened it 4 or 5 times to remove the weak steel. I don't know if its the heat treat or it got overheated during grinding but until that 4th or 5th sharpening I thought a Tojiro DP was a much better buy. Now it cuts decently and it seems have much better edge stability. I still think a nice carbon steel knife would outperform a Carbonext in terms of sharpness. The Carbonext also feels a bit soft. My Warther 440C has a better heat treat on it I think.
yes, edge retention is horrible! and needs quite a bit of thinning even though it's a thin spine knife. thinning mono steel is not fun.
i used my santoku last night for dinner preparation (onions, lemons, beans, garlic....) this is really a stunning knife for the money. The edge on it can simply be fantastic. I used to carry this and hattori HF 210 in my luggage on long trips, and find somewhere that would let me in the kitchen a couple evenings a week.
Agree that the edge is bad and it comes surprisingly fat. Took quite the effort to get the 300 mm suji into good cutting form. Disagree with bad heat treatment though. Maybe yours was, and if so that is unfortunate. Mine sharpens great, love it's feel on the stones, and holds the edge reasonably well.
I do feel that it may be a touch softer than my tkc, but still not poorly heat treated. I know that it seems that it's an accepted fact that carbonext and tkc are the same blade , but it certainly hasn't seemed like it in my experience. Feels slightly softer on the stones, seems significantly more reactive, and was ground far thicker (again: suji vs. gyuto).
It may well be the same alloy, but to me just about every aspect of the tkc has performed superior.
(Could all be in my head, as more experienced members hear don't seem to agree)
Perhaps there is a large degree of variability among the different production runs of the CarboNEXT as there has been with the Hiromoto AS?
The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.

The Structure of Coordination
€ 44,99
Lieferbar innerhalb von 2-3 Tagen
September 2003
BeschreibungThis book analyzes the structure of coordination from two perspectives: the symmetrical properties the construction imposes on its conjuncts, and how conjuncts interact with other categories outside coordination with respect to agreement and other grammatical phenomena. A substantial amount of data represented in this book are taken from varieties of Spanish. Unlike English, Spanish has a rich pattern of overt agreement between the subject and the verb, between nouns and adjectives, and also between clitics and lexical DP objects and indirect objects. Spanish agreement paradigms reveal very interesting patterns of agreement mismatch that provide important theoretical insights. Unless otherwise specified, it can be assumed that non-English examples are from Spanish. IX CHAPTER #1 INTRODUCTION Although coordination has figured more or less steadily in the Generative tradition beginning with Chornsky's (1957) Conjunction Transformation (later known as Conjunction Reduction), until recently, the two prevailing areas of research had been ellipsis (see, for example, Van Oirsouw 1987) and the semantic interpretation of conjuncts.' The internal structure of coordination was usually left unanalyzed, or assumed to be ternary branching, as in (I).

Invasion of Privacy HTML version
Walking in the yard behind my house, I saw something glowing; it was green and about the
size of a baseball. It looked as if it was made of glass, but when I tried to touch it, it wasn't there.
My eyes told me that I had my hand around it, but I couldn't feel it. I carefully rolled the object
onto my open palm and lifted it up to get a better look. Bringing it closer, I heard a noise that
sounded like the beating of hummingbird's wings. As I gazed into the glowing orb, it became
clear, and I could see inside.
At first, I could only make out colors and shapes, but I was slowly able to see mountains
covered with a thick, bright white substance that at first looked like snow. As my eyes focused, I
could see that it was millions of pulsing organisms. Each of these plant- like creatures appeared to
be an exact duplicate, but on closer inspection, I could see that they had distinct differences.
Whereas one would have a short, slender protrusion that opened and closed repeatedly, the next
would appear to have a rounded hole that was flat and remained open.
I felt like I was in a dream. I closed my eyes and shook my head. When I opened my eyes
and looked around, I was standing on the mountain, surrounded by the white creatures. Shocked,
I dropped the orb and I was back in my yard. I ran into my house and stood at the window,
shaking and gasping for air, looking at the object still glowing in the grass.
"What in the hell was that?" I said aloud, "I must be losing my mind." I went to the
refrigerator and grabbed a beer. I sat in a chair and stared out the window.
"Okay, just calm down and think; it had to be my imagination." Even while I was saying it, I
could recall the smell of the place; it was a strange mixture of sulfur and cherries. "You can't
make that up, nothing smells like that."
I knew that I would go back to pick up the orb again, but first I had to think. I began pacing
the room, trying to gather my thoughts. The object fell from space and is able to transport anyone
that holds it to another planet. "That's insane!" I tried to think of another explanation. It's a
crystal ball that puts a spell on anyone who holds it and makes you see into another world. "Oh,
that makes more sense," I said to myself sarcastically. There wasn't any way to make sense out
of what happened, so I decided to go back outside to have another look.
Stepping out into the cool spring morning, I looked around and had the feeling of seeing
things for the first time. I saw the gentle swaying of the trees as they danced in the breeze and
heard the chirping of the birds as they called out to each other, expressing their joy of the arrival
of spring. Maybe I shouldn't mess with something that I didn't understand. What if I left this
world and couldn't come back? But when I knelt by the glowing orb and heard its gentle hum, I
felt drawn to it and without any hesitation, carefully scooped it up and sat in the grass, gazing
into it.
I was standing on the mountain again, and I somehow knew that the creatures were called
Prantholimins. The smell of sulfur and cherries was their scent. As I slowly moved through the
field, they made a chattering sound, and they parted to allow me to pass. Looking up, I saw a
large bird circling above me, seeming to watch me as I moved through the field. The bird was
easily twice my size and was getting closer with each pass. As I watched in awe that something
so big was able to move so effortlessly through the air, it landed near me. My first instinct was to
run but instead I stood perfectly still as the large creature walked slowly towards me. As it

Proposed cuts in library service in his district prompts Councilman Joseph P. Addabbo, Jr. to schedule rallies at 32nd Council District libraries. Rallies will take place at the following branch library sites in Rockaway: May 28 – Broad Channel; June 2 – Peninsula; June 3 – Seaside.
All rallies will take place from 3:30 P.M.- 4:30 P.M.
"The Queensborough Public Library System serves the 2.2 million residents of Queens, among them the more than 150,000 people who live here in my district," Addabbo said. "They borrow books, use the libraries for research and internet access, and make them the community hubs they are supposed to be. Library usage in Queens is among the highest in the country. The mayor's proposed service cuts for my district , as well as for the rest of Queens, will impinge on the quality of life for all of us, whether toddler, teen, or senior."
Of particular concern to Councilman Addabbo is loss of Saturday service. Many of our high schools do not have adequate library facilities due to severe overcrowding. School schedules and time-consuming commutes from high schools are often not conducive to giving students the opportunity to utilize branch libraries other than on Saturdays.
Addabbo concluded, saying: "We must preserve the vital role played by books, reading, and literacy in our communities."

Zen / Mahayana
The Mahayana tradition of Buddhism, of which Zen is an important expression (along with Chinese Chan and Korean Soen), arose sometime around the first century C.E. in South India and spread throughout Asia. It is characterized by the ideal of the bodhisattva: the compassionate being whose desire for enlightenment isn't an individual quest but includes all other sentient beings as well.
Everything Is Workable
A Zen Approach to Conflict ResolutionConflict is going to be a part of your life—as long as you have relationships, a job, or dry cleaning to be picked up. Bracing yourself against it won't make it go away, but if you approach it consciously, you can navigate it in way that not only honors everyone involved but makes it a source of deep insight as well.

DISGRACED AFL player manager Ricky Nixon will plead guilty to recklessly causing injury to his ex-fiancee Tegan Gould, but denies intending to hurt her, a court has heard.
Nixon, 49, of Port Melbourne, appeared briefly in the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Wednesday accused of assaulting Ms Gould when armed with a kitchen knife.
Prosecutor Michael Robinson told the court Nixon would plead guilty to one charge of recklessly causing injury to Ms Gould and one charge of escaping from police custody.
One count of resisting arrest would be withdrawn.
Mr Robinson said the issues to be decided at a hearing in March would be Nixon's intent and the extent of the injuries caused to Ms Gould.
Ms Gould, 28, a dental nurse, had asked to give her evidence via video link so she would not be in the same courtroom as Nixon.
Defence lawyer Theo Alexander said there were a number of aggravating factors in dispute in the case. He said the use of a knife and claims Nixon intended to hurt Ms Gould were ''wholly denied''.
Discussions had been held with the Office of Public Prosecutions but both parties could not come to a resolution.
Mr Alexander said the issues had been narrowed down as much as possible but a hearing was needed to finalise the case.
Magistrate Kay Robertson adjourned the case for a two-day hearing next March and released Nixon on bail.
Nixon had been charged with unlawfully imprisoning Ms Gould and detaining her against her will; intentionally causing injury to Ms Gould; recklessly causing injury to Ms Gould; threatening to kill Ms Gould; unlawfully assaulting Ms Gould; unlawfully assaulting Ms Gould with a weapon namely a kitchen knife; escaping from police custody; and resisting arrest.
At an earlier hearing on October 11, the OPP revealed it had dropped two of the most serious charges against Nixon of intentionally causing serious injury and recklessly causing serious injury to Ms Gould.
Mr Robinson did not explain in court why the charges had been dropped but said the OPP did not oppose the case being dealt with in the Magistrates Court.
If the two charges had not been withdrawn, the case would have been heard in the County Court where Nixon could have faced harsher penalties. The maximum penalty for intentionally causing serious injury is 20 years' jail, while recklessly causing serious injury carries a maximum of 15 years' jail.
The maximum term of imprisonment magistrates can impose for a single offence is two years' jail, but they can hand down a total sentence of five years for several offences.
The July 15 incident took place after Nixon arrived home from a party hosted by Carlton champion Chris Judd and reportedly found Ms Gould in his bed about 2am.
Nixon's player manager licence was suspended for two years last year due to an ''inappropriate personal relationship'' with a young woman who had released nude photographs of St Kilda footballers.

Dave Brat's victory over Eric Cantor (R-VA) was attributed to his Tea Party backing, when national groups like the Tea Party Patriots gave him no financial assistance at all. What the media ignored was his campaigning in local churches and emphasis on family values.
In addition to opposing illegal immigration, Brat's platform declared that "the most important factor in our nation's success is the strength of the family unit." It said that Brat would "protect the rights of the unborn and the sanctity of marriage, and will oppose any governmental intrusion upon the conscience of people of faith."
"A man of deep faith," his bio says, "Dave attends St. Mary's Catholic Church with his wife Laura and their two children: Jonathan, 15 and Sophia, 11." It says he went to Princeton, where he obtained a Masters in Divinity, and on to American University, where he earned a Ph.D. in Economics.
During the campaign, he also repeatedly emphasized a national security policy of "peace through strength."
As they played down his pro-moral values message, in a victory that is continuing to send shock waves through the political establishment, our media have failed to report on how President Obama's "fundamental transformation" of America has been working out in a process that can only be described as the homosexualization of the Armed Forces.
It is a topic that some Republicans, eager to sound like Democrats on social issues, want to avoid. But Brat's victory—and the fact that his pro-traditional values message struck a chord—may cause them to start paying attention.
Many have been amazed at the lengths to which the Obama administration went to get Army deserter Bowe Bergdahl out of enemy hands, by exchanging him for five top terrorists. But consider the extraordinary June 5th Department of Defense "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month Ceremony," which featured "the highest ranking transgendered civilian appointment in the Department," a "woman" named Amanda Simpson who used to be a man named Mitchell Simpson.
Simpson introduced the event and proudly identified herself/himself as transgender, generating a round of applause.
We reported on Simpson in 2010, when he/she became the first openly transgendered appointee to the federal bureaucracy. Simpson has since moved from the Commerce Department to the Defense Department.
Simpson reflects the aggressive infiltration of the federal government, even the Pentagon, by the George Soros-funded transgender movement. The Executive Director of something called the "Army Energy Initiatives Task Force," Simpson served as a board member of the National Center for Transgender Equality from 2007 to 2009. George Soros has been a backer of the group, giving them $150,000 through his Open Society Foundations in 2011 alone.
You may recall that former Army soldier Bradley Manning had listed the National Center for Transgender Equality among his "likes and interests." Manning, who was sentenced to 35 years in prison for violating the Espionage Act, theft of government property, and other offenses, has now said, "I am Chelsea Manning. I am female." He wants the taxpayers to pay for his sex-change operation, and the Pentagon seems willing to oblige him/her.

Feb. 14, 2009
Cincinnati at Pitt, Petersen Events Center, Feb. 14, 2009
Quoting Pitt's Head Coach Jamie Dixon
Opening Statement:
"I thought that was a great game offensively by both teams. Cincinnati's an NCAA Tournament team in my opinion, and one that's going to play their way in. They've been very hot and playing very well of late, so it's good to get a win against them. I thought our defense could have been a little bit better, but give them a lot of credit. Their offense executed very well and they really gave us their best effort and their best shot. They had second and third options in their offensive sets that were making moves and scoring."
On playing UConn on Monday:
"We have to go beat a very good team on the road, which is always a challenge. We're number one in the RPI right now though, so obviously we've been doing something right all year. Hasheem Thabeet is a great player who's really improved tremendously as his career has gone one. He started against us here his freshmen year and that UConn team didn't even make the NCAA Tournament. Now, two years later they're the number-one ranked team in the country riding him very hard. That shows great improvement."
On the play of Gilbert Brown:
"Gilbert Brown is a very important player for us. He's had a rough couple of games, but he's got too much talent and works too hard not to bounce back. We've been talking about getting more out of him and he really stepped up tonight. I thought we got a lot of good contributions from everyone. We avoided foul trouble, so some guys didn't get the minutes they'd been getting, but I didn't really think there was anyone who had a down game."
On the play of Levance Fields:
"I was saying earlier that when a guy has 13 assists and zero turnovers it's a mind boggling stat, but it's something with Levance that we almost take for granted. Everything we do on offense flows through him and he's really just leading us perfectly right now. I'm not sure there's anyone right now in the country playing point guard as well as he is."
Quoting Pitt's Levance Fields
On Pitt's run after Cincinnati cut the lead to five in the second half:
"I thought the crowd really got behind us and sparked us to pick up our play a little more. We were able to get some stops on defense, followed by some good looks which our shooters stepped up and knocked down."
On Jermaine Dixon's defense:
"Today was another great job by Jermaine Dixon just doing what he's done well all year. He has to go up against the other team's top guard the every time and he does a phenomenal job. He's got good size, long arms and he moves his feet well. Jermaine's everything you'd want defensively at his position."
Quoting Pitt's DeJuan Blair
On Pitt's play:
"We just played our game tonight. It wasn't our best performance of the year, but it got the job done. Gilbert Brown really stepped up for us and provided us a spark off the bench. It seemed like everybody that got in the game today gave us energy and was able to contribute in a big way."
Quoting Pitt's Gilbert Brown
On his play:
"I've just been focused on being more aggressive and trying to get to the rack. I was able to do that with some success today, not only finishing strong but also drawing some fouls and getting to the line."
Quoting Cincinnati Head Coach Mike Cronin
On the game:
"We were down 11 at the half against the No. 3 or 4 ranked team in the nation. It's tough to dig out of a hole. Our goal was to try to hold them in the 60's."
On Pitt:
"They've got a great team. This is the best Pitt team I've seen. It's a culmination of hard work. Pitt is a great team. They played well, and we were unable to stop them. They have three players who are probably the best in the league at their positions (Young, Blair, and Fields). Levance has proven that he can dominate when healthy. Dejaun has proven he can dominate. Sam has proven he can dominate. You don't have much margin for error against Pitt."
On Cincinnati:
"We've made a great run the last month. This was like a final exam. I was proud of our guys. They kept fighting. My message to our guys: certain things have gone wrong but we've been able to overcome."
On the game:
"The only thing that didn't go well on offense was first half turnovers and free throws. After watching the film, I think this is the best team Jamie's had. They have more fire power."
On UConn:
"It's tough to play up there. Dyson's injury was unfortunate. I thought Pitt, Connecticut, and North Carolina would be in the final four."
Quoting Cincinnati's Alvin Mitchell:
On the game:
"It's real tough playing Pitt at home. I thought they'd come out a little lackadaisical, but they came out tough like they should."
"It was a learning experience. We played one of the top teams in the nation. It was a test to see how far we've come. Despite the loss, we still gained a lot. They showed me what it takes to be ranked like them. We needed to find a way to get easy buckets and get to the free throw line."
Quoting Cincinnati's Deonta Vaughn:
On Cincinnati:
"Everybody just made plays with the ball."
On Pitt's DeJuan Blair:
"Blair's a good player. He's strong willed."
On the game:
"[Turnovers] hurt us a lot. I turned [the ball] over a couple of times. That's what really hurt us in the first half. I think we played well as a team. We played the number four team in the country. They're a good team, but any team can be beaten."

I've noticed that very few fragrance-free products actually smell like nothing at all. This smelled vaguely cinnamon-y, but nothing too overwhelming or annoying, so I didn't mind that. My biggest gripe was that this lotion never seemed to fully absorb into my skin and didn't hydrate well at all. It seemed to smear around on top without ever soaking in, so maybe that's why I didn't find it hydrating. I liked how cheap it was and how much you get in a bottle, but this isn't "the one" in my search for a fragrance-free natural moisturizer.

Good all purpose lotion for body, feet and hands. I don't use it on my face as some reviewers have done because it contains substances that clog pores. Overall it is a good lotion, creamy texture, light and pleasant scent, and my skin just drinks it in so no oily feel afterwards. The ingredients list is not as scary as some other lotions I've checked out. This brand also has a vanilla and a lavender lotion that smell just as nicely as the olive & aloe.

This is a pretty decent moisturizer for combo skin. I bought this for my 11 year old daughter due to her skin going through changes of the prepubescent. It keeps her skin supple and I like that it doesn't utilize animal testing or ingredients. I'd repurchase for sure.

This review is for Kiss My Face Fragrance Free Sensitive Skin Olive & Aloe Moisturizer. This is a good and natural body lotion. It is a vegan product as it contains no animal ingredients and is not tested on animals. It also does not contain silicones. This lotion is medium to light and absorbs well into the skin for a comfortable non-oily feel. I can even use it on dry hands. However, it is not super moisturizing, so those with very dry skin might want to look for another lotion or cream. I recommend this lotion as a light to medium-duty product, however I need something more moisturizing sometimes, especially for my hands if they get very dry. The price is good for the amount the pump contains. It should last you awhile. The packaging is simple and could be a little better: the plastic could be clear to see how much lotion is left and be made of more durable plastic. Also the pump is a little inconvenient for traveling. Another thing is when using a lot of product, it gives a temporary whitish cast on the skin that disappears when well massaged in. Overall, this lotion is a good product and I recommend it.

I use this moisturizer (the fragrance free variety) all over but find it particularly useful for my face. I use Jojoba oil for my acne and mixed with this moisturizer, it becomes the ultimate blend. As the moisturizer dries matte and Jojoba is a bit shiny I find they cancel each other out nicely, perfect for under my makeup.
I use the pump bottle which I love because large pump bottles save money (if you calculate cost per ounce) and they're much nicer to use. I am able to easily fill a travel pump bottle to keep in my bag as well.
After I cleanse my face I put about a quarter size amount in my hand. In the morning I add 2 drops of pure Jojoba oil, before bed I use 3. I mix them together and apply all over, making sure to bring it down my neck a bit. The Jojoba makes it glide wonderfully and my skin always glows afterwards. No problems with absorption.
When I get out of the shower I always have the bottle nearby to moisturize immediately. I start at my feet and work my way up. Then blend in a couple drops of Jojoba for places that I like to thoroughly moisturize or have acne scars (my bottom, chest, neck and upper back). Along with my usual face routine.
All in all, fantastic ingredients, never causes irritation, doesn't break me out, and mattifies my Jojoba to the perfect level.

I use the small tube of this moisturizer as a hand and body cream. It would definitely be more economical to buy this in the big pump version, but I like carrying it around in my purse.
It's winter now and I find this lotion to be moisturizing, but very light and I have to reapply often. It will be better for spring/summer. I used to use Glysomed and it made my hands very greasy so I like how light this one is. I just wish it stood up to a hand washing.
It's very nice used as a body lotion, too, especially after I shave my legs. It has a nice, fruity scent which I like but other people have commented they don't like the smell.
Overall, a great moisturizer and I will keep using it!

This is my favorite body lotion. I use it every day. I have a big bottle for home and a travel size for my purse. I use it on my body and hands.
EDIT: I was using this on my face for a long time. I have combination skin that leans toward dry and I'm acne-prone. This moisturizer was part of a routine that was most definitely breaking me out. I still like it for hands and body, but I wouldn't recommend it for face.
