Sage has its time; a large-scale open access resource for systems biologists
As highlighted in the latest issue of Nature Reviews in Drug Discovery, the incubation phase of a new Open Access platform called Sage (www.sagebase.org) should begin on 1 July, 2009. The aim of this initiative, led by Stephen Friend and Eric Schadt who are leaving Merck to run it, is 'to integrate large-scale biological information into models and then enable other scientists to leverage that information in an open access way'. It starts with a large chunk of data and information (especially expression profiling data) that they bring to the party.
The basic approach involves expression profiling of carefully designed samples coupled to advanced numerical inferencing techniques to predict genetic or other networks underlying disease (or regulation more generally, e.g. in yeast). Examples including Bayesian approaches, that Manchester colleagues and I have used with success. Particular emphasis is laid on eQTLs (or as I called it somewhat earlier genotype-phenotype mapping). The Sage approach has already enjoyed a number of successes, as in the identification of biochemical links to obesity, inflammation, susceptibility to diabetes, the discovery of drug targets, network-based drug discovery (see also a previous blog).
Our own take includes the need to make available to the community models (such as the yeast metabolic network) in a semantically principled manner, preferably in SBML, approaches using Taverna to integrate such SBML-specified networks with expression profiling data, and to recognise the absolute importance of metabolic transporters for moving drugs around the body.
A number of related initiatives recognise the power of collaborative projects, made that much easier by the net and the wikinomics culture of Web 2.0. One might here also mention the recent acquisition for Open Access (by the Wellcome Trust via the EBI) of a large chemogenomic dataset from Galapagos, the rise of Open Access chemistry, internet-accessible chemical databases such as ZINC (that we have found very useful), and Chemspider (recently acquired by the RSC). The future for integrative data analysis for understanding complex biochemical networks has been looming for quite a while; I am confident that Sage and related activities can give it a great boost.
On the swine flu front, we already have some ideas of the antigenic and inhibitor sensitivity properties of the 2009 strain, suggesting that in its present form it should be sensitive to the commonest existing neuraminidase inhibitors but that it may be resistant to existing antibodies/vaccines. In addition, the May 21st Nature has a couple of reflective articles, noting that while this (northern) summer's incidence suggests that the current strain(s) circulating are not yet especially fearsome, they serve as a timely reminder for proper preparedness, and to learn some lessons of history about the need to communicate accurately. That need is even more acute in the era of the internet and especially of the Web.

The line between work and out-of-work behaviour is getting thinner. Where once an employee might be able to get away with their out-of-hours behaviour, employers are seeing it as detrimental to the company.
The most famous case in recent years was that of Forsyth Barr employee Guy Hallwright, who was convicted of inflicting grievous bodily harm in an out-of-hours road rage incident. Hallwright lost his plum job at the investment firm for bringing his employer into disrepute when he landed himself in the headlines
He fought his erstwhile employer, but the Employment Relations Authority (ERA) rejected Hallwright's case.
The case was a reminder to all employees to be wary of what they do in their spare time.
Richard Upton, a barrister who specialises in employment law, says employees need to be aware that what matters is not so much where the conduct takes place as the impact or potential impact on the employer's business.
To lead to legal dismissal, the offending out-of-hours behaviour must pass one of four tests, Upton says. These are:
The conduct has damaged the employer's reputation or business.
It is incompatible with the proper discharge of the employee's duty.
It has affected other employees.
It undermines the trust and confidence necessary between the employer and employee.
In the Hallwright case, Forsyth Barr considered its employee's out-of-hours behaviour had affected the company's reputation and it brought a public relations professional in to give evidence to that effect.
Although not common, cases of dismissal following unacceptable out-of-hours behaviour are heard by the ERA and Employment Court, says Upton.
In one case found to be a fair dismissal, staff of security product provider Tyco had gone to a bar for after-work drinks.
An employee, Paia Taurarii, punched another patron. Taurarii argued that his dismissal was inappropriate because the act happened on the street in front of the pub, outside work hours, and the victim was someone who wasn't an employee.
"The Employment Relations Authority," says Upton, "said it was quite clear he was [at the pub] because of the work function and he was a representative of the employer.
"There was a link and his dismissal was justified."
In Smith v Christchurch Press, one employee was dismissed for sexually harassing a colleague outside work hours, Upton says. Smith suggested to a colleague that she have lunch with him and took her to his house, where he made sexual advances. She acquiesced because she was scared of her colleague, but made a formal complaint about the incident to her employers.
Smith argued that it happened outside work hours because it was lunchtime, but the ERA found that the connection between the two arose from their employment and the incident had the potential to adversely affect the working environment.
The case went to the Employment Court and Court of Appeal.
The line between work and out-of-hours behaviour is often finer in small towns, says Upton. He cites the case of Tokoroa DJ John Dryden v The Radio Network (TRN).
Dryden, a breakfast host at Radio Forestland, shouted at the mayor at a public meeting, which prompted a letter to his boss from the mayor complaining about the radio host's "unprofessional" conduct which had the potential to "destroy the previous very good relationship between the office of the mayor and Radio Forestland".
Dryden argued that he was at the public meeting of his own accord as a citizen of Tokoroa. In its judgment the ERA commented that Dryden was a public figure in the community and strongly associated with TRN.
"Further, he was dressed in clothing clearly branded with the Radio Forestland logo." The ERA judgment said that he brought the TRN brand into disrepute.
Employers do need to be aware of the principle of "disparity of treatment", says Upton. "They can't impose one sanction on a favoured employee and then impose a harsher sanction on another employee in the same material circumstances.
"If they did so and the favoured employee is warned for out-of-hours behaviour and a second dismissed for the same conduct, the employer could be accused of disparity of treatment."
Upton expects to see more cases of employees dismissed for out-of-hours conduct.
Social media may blur the lines between work and private lives. For example, many people have fellow employees as Facebook friends.
They may also be broadcasting their opinions more widely than they could in the past.
Employee Joe Bloggs, for example, may list his employer in his Facebook profile. If he then brags about doing cocaine in his spare time, the employer may be justified in disciplining the employee, says Upton.
Likewise, making "morally reprehensible" controversial comments on Facebook or Twitter could also be seen as bringing the employer's reputation into disrepute.
Upton says where the person in question is the face of the organisation - for example John Campbell from Campbell Live - there is a lot less flexibility. Were Campbell to make controversial statements publicly they might not, in the public mind, be easily separated from the organisation he represents.

LaCrosse Half Marathon
The forecast called for thunderstorms and rain. I woke up at 3am and checked the weather. Great! No rain! Up at 4 to eat some breakfast. Still no rain! Looking good! Half way through breakfast and hmmm was that thunder? Yup! And here comes the rain. Checked the race website and the marathon has been cancelled and the half has been delayed. Drove to the race and waited for the official call. Now it's dumping and really thundering. Looks like no race today. Start to head home. Wait, what's this? A little clearing to the west? The race is on!
It was still raining pretty good at the start. I was soaked before even taking a step. It rained for the first mile or two and it was pretty cold, 54 with a good breeze from the south east. I ran the first three miles sub 9 and then backed it down a little. I know there are hills from mile 7 to 10 and I wanted something left for those. Picture above is taken at about mile 7 and I'm feeling good. Bring on those hills! I passed a lot of people in the next three miles and was able to hold my pace of 9:15. Mile 10 at 1:33:50 and a 5k to go. The hills had taken a little zip from my legs. I was still able to pass a lot of people in the last three miles and finished pretty strong at 2:01:57. Not under two hours but still a PR for both the distance and this race for me. Three years ago I ran this race at 2:12. So all in all it was an okay day despite the weather and delays.

Of Gods and Mortals, Traditional Art from India
Nov. 4, 2006 – ongoing
In India, art plays an integral role in the structure of daily life. Paintings, sculpture, textiles and other art forms are used in religious practices and to express prestige and social position. The Peabody Essex Museum has recently tripled its gallery space for Indian art in order to reveal the rich diversity of the country's artistic tradition. Featuring works from the 1800s to the present, this new installation includes the delicate embroideries, fine portraits and devotional images prized by maharajas, merchants, farmers and laborers.
Inspired by China: Contemporary Furnituremakers Explore Chinese Traditions
October 28, 2006 – March 4, 2007
Inspired by China brings together approximately 30 stellar examples of historic Chinese furniture and new works designed by 22 leading artists from around the world whose response to China's rich and varied furniture traditions will reveal the creative power of cross-cultural exchange. The aesthetics of Chinese furniture and decorative art have been an important source for new directions in European and American furniture—from the Chippendale style of the mid-18th century, through the Aesthetic style of the late 19th century, to modernist design during the 1930s and 1940s. This traveling exhibition will open at the Museum of Art, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Nov. 20, 2007, and run through Mar. 31, 2007.
Epic India: Paintings of M. F. Husain
November 4, 2006 – June 3, 2007
The Mahabharata is one of India's oldest and most beloved epics, and the source of stories and teachings that have been part of life in India for two thousand years. M. F. Husain, India's best-known contemporary artist, first painted a series of works about the epic for the 1971 Sao Paolo Biennale. For Husain, the central paradox of the epic, and of human nature, is the competition and jealousies that divide members of a family, forcing them to choose sides and moving them all inexorably towards an Armageddon. Drawn primarily from the Peabody Essex Museum's Herwitz Collection of contemporary Indian art, the exhibition features 19 works inspired by Husain's vision of the Mahabharata.
The Emperor Looks West
September 23, 2006 – Mar. 25, 2007
Art has been used to mark important events throughout the history of nations. In China, some of the finest examples have emerged from palace workshops. In this exhibition, an exquisite court painting from the 18th century--on view for the first time in a U.S. museum--shows a banquet in the Forbidden City celebrating Emperor Qianlong's military victory in a region of western China. "Victory Banquet at the West Garden" (19'w x 20"h), which once belonged to a former French president, is painted in ink, color, and gold on silk in the traditional hand scroll format. Other objects, including a dazzling European-style clock; a Mughal jade bowl; ceramics; enamels, and cloisonné, reflect the range of international influences that helped shape imperial art during the Qianlong era.
Sketched at Sea
August 12, 2006 – January 6, 2008
This exhibition features a hidden treasure of the Peabody Essex Museum's maritime collections—an important selection of marine sketchbooks, many of which are being shown for the first time. The men and women who created these works were mariners, travelers, or professional artists, and they all shared the experience of the sea as the inspiration for their drawings. The pages in the sketchbooks will be frequently rotated so that visitors can regularly experience a fresh selection of artworks.
A Sense of Place: An Artist's Tribute to the Seven Continents
December 16, 2006 – June 3, 2007
This exhibition presents seven large batiks by contemporary artist Betsy Sterling Benjamin. The batiks, each representing a continent, celebrate the diversity and interconnections in nature and among cultures around the globe. Objects from the museum's permanent collection will also be featured in the exhibition, plus hands-on interactive stations and other activities for families. Benjamin's batiks, originally made to celebrate the millennium on each continent, reveal the unique perspective artists bring to global issues such as biodiversity and cultural awareness.
Joseph Cornell: Navigating the Imagination
April 28, 2007 – August 19, 2007
Joseph Cornell is one of America's most innovative modern artists, known for his distinctive box sculptures, collages and experimental films that continue to influence many artists, writers, poets, filmmakers and designers. Co-organized by PEM and The Smithsonian American Art Museum (SAAM) and curated by PEM chief curator, Lynda Hartigan, the exhibition represents the first major retrospective of this extraordinary American artist in 25 years. It will feature 200 of Cornell's artworks borrowed from an international array of public and private collections. This exhibition will travel.
Samuel McIntire: Carving an American Style
October 2007 – February 2008
In celebration of the 250th birthday of Salem's renowned architect, the Peabody Essex Museum is holding the first major exhibition of Samuel McIntire's distinguished career as a carver of neoclassical ornaments for buildings, ships and furniture. It includes more than 200 objects— from original architectural drawings, carvings, and sculpture, to examples of his extraordinary furniture creations—drawn from both public and private collections. Curator Dean Lahikainen, the author of the accompanying book for the show, has also selected paintings, prints, books, tools and related decorative arts objects, giving viewers a rich context for McIntire's work.
Painting Summer in New England
Through September 4, 2006
New England is renowned for the summer delights and leisure activities afforded by its mountains, villages, and seacoast. Since the 19th century, painters have gathered in New England to capture these activities and landscapes on canvas. In Painting Summer in New England, guest curator Trevor Fairbrother assembles an astonishing array of paintings, ranging from the 1850s to the present, including works by Winslow Homer, John Singer Sargent, Childe Hassam, Andrew Wyeth, Stuart Davis, George Bellows, Marguerite Zorach, Edward Hopper, Lois Dodd, and Alex Katz. While some works reflect the leisure activities of the summer, others touch on the counterpoints of city living, rural existence, and the impact on natural settings and resources. Painting Summer in New England, organized by the Peabody Essex Museum, opens April 22, 2006 and runs through Sept. 4, 2006.
Intersections, Native American Art in a New Light
The first major show of Native American art since the museum reopened in 2003, this exhibition features approximately 90 works ranging in date from the 1600's to the present. The Peabody Essex Museum's collection of Native American art is the oldest in the Western Hemisphere. Featured here are exceptional historic and contemporary beadwork, textiles, ceramics, new media installations, drawings, sculpture, and paintings. The exhibitionpowerfully demonstrates multiple themes, such as ceremonial and everyday objects that convey belief and narrative, the role of women, intertribal and Native/non-Native influences, and humor and parody.
The Yachting Photography of Willard B. Jackson
extenddd through May 20, 2007
Willard Bramwell Jackson (1871–1940) trained his lens on one of the yachting capitals of the world, Marblehead, Massachusetts. Shooting primarily from his powerboat Alison between 1898 and 1936, Jackson captured the many dimensions of yachting, from graceful boat designs, to the exhilaration of the sport, to the deep affinity sailors share with their vessels on the sea. Although he specialized in great sailboats, Jackson's remarkable eye and darkroom skills captured the beauty of all kinds of vessels, including steam yachts, speedboats, elegant pleasure cruisers, and the occasional naval vessel. The exhibition includes more than 50 works from the Peabody Essex Museum's collection. The Yachting Photography of Willard B. Jackson will be accompanied by the first major book on the artist's work, featuring essays by Matt Murphy, editor of WoodenBoat magazine, and Daniel Finamore, the Russell W. Knight Curator of Maritime Art and History at the Peabody Essex Museum.
Exposing the Source: the Paintings of Nalini Malani
Through October 15, 2006
Exposing the Source: The Paintings of Nalini Malani presents two decades of the artist's projects as a painter. Drawn principally from the Peabody Essex Museum's renowned
Chester and Davida Herwitz Collection of Contemporary Indian Art, the exhibition features paintings and watercolors that include powerful imagery of women's inner lives, of India's vital urban culture, as well as invocations of Hindu and Greek mythology and modern German drama. Nalini Malani, born in Karachi, Pakistan in 1946, was the first Indian artist with a solo exhibition in the United States, and has had work exhibited in India, Japan, Australia, France, England, Germany, Switzerland, Cuba, South Africa, and the United States. An installation piece is also featured in this year's Venice Biennale. Nalini Malani lives and works in Mumbai. The Chester and Davida Herwitz Collection of Contemporary Indian Art comprises more than 1,200 works by many of India's leading artists of the second half of the twentieth century.
Owls in Art & Nature
Through December 3, 2006
Owls have long held a fascination for people, whether as symbols of good or evil, of wisdom, or harbingers of doom. Through a selection of works of art and interactive stations, a new exhibition at the Peabody Essex Museum explores the myriad connections between people and owls and why owls look and behave the way they do. This rich and multi-faceted exhibition includes paintings, sculptures, prints, photography, video, and decorative art. Eight new, original works created for this exhibition will be displayed, as well as objects from the museum's collections of Native American, Contemporary Indian, and American Decorative art, such as a Tlingit owl amulet and an owl fan.
All of My Life: Contemporary Works by Native American Artists
This dynamic selection of sculptures and paintings in All of My Life embraces the experiences and worldviews of nine contemporary Native American artists who call upon and reinterpret both Native American painting and sculpting traditions that are thousands of years old as well as those of modern art. Artists such as Mateo Romero and David Bradley have chosen oil painting and social realism as their means of tackling the political landscape of being Native American in today's changing world. Truman Lowe interprets the Eastern shorelines in sculpting an abstracted, suspended structure in willow. Although visitors may have expectations about what constitutes Native American art, this installation will provide opportunities to expand our understanding and knowledge about how contemporary Native artists are reinterpreting traditions and challenging conventions.
Carved by Nature: Untamed Traditions in Chinese Decorative Art
Through August 13, 2006
Objects made from naturally twisted and contorted wood have been appreciated in China for millennia. These organic forms appealed to Buddhists and Daoists seeking to convey an attitude of humility and an affinity with nature. During the Qing dynasty (1644-1911), fantastic wood forms appealed to the flamboyant tastes of the period, and many wealthy Chinese collectors surrounded themselves with furnishings of twisted wood.

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Animal Rescue of Tidewater, Inc. is a nonprofit organization whose purpose is to create a compassionate community where there are no more stray, abandoned, or neglected animals and where destroying adoptable animals is no longer used as a means of population control.
ART's mission is to improve the condition of animals through:
*Rescuing homeless animals
*Promoting humane treatment and responsible pet ownership
*Fostering compassion and respect for animals
Our History
The first meeting of ART was in January of 1999. Our members came together initially because each was involved in improving the lives of, and finding homes for, orphaned animals. Some individuals took in stray and/or unwanted animals, restored them to health as needed, and placed them in permanent homes. Others in the group focused most of their efforts on supporting local shelters like the city funded Animal Control and privately funded SPCA. We decided that we wanted to continue and enhance these diverse efforts and have done so quite well.
During our short history, ART's impact on the community has been profound. In addition to developing a solid network of foster homes, which allowed members to rescue and adopt out an average of 23 animals per month, ART members played a pivotal role in the revision of the animal welfare laws in Norfolk. Further, ART is an approved rescue with nearly every shelter in the region and, in fact, has substantially enhanced the volunteer base at the Norfolk Animal Management Center. ART's most recent initiative, with the help of $75,000 in grants from the Norfolk Foundation, is the formation of the Animal Welfare Coalition of Hampton Roads which includes representatives from virtually every animal service provider group in the region, and whose goal is to increase spay/neuter and quality adoptions, and to end the euthanasia of healthy, adoptable animals in Hampton Roads.
ART is incorporated and a 501 © 3 as designated by the IRS.
What We Do
*Rescue and find homes for stray, abandoned, shelter-released and owner-released animals
*Advocate for improved animal welfare
*Educate the public about animal welfare and animal issues
*Focus on spay/neuter as the underlying solution to animal population control

Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

I did have one serious issue that could cause some problems:
My ATM Card had expired while I was crossing the Pacific. I have never before set up a cash advance before so I didn't have a PIN attached with it. There was no way to generate a PIN unless I could get to a Bank of America Banking Center which does not have a branch in Japan. What a pain. I argued with the card companies over Skype for about an hour but basically, It looked like I was borrowing until Karla got here in four days with my ATM card. Tim lent me a little money and thank god he did because it's so hard to buy anything in Japan without cash. Only one type of quick market accepts credit cards. 7-Elevens are Cash only and so is McDonalds. Visa says that they're "everywhere you want to be" but I remembered from last time I was in Japan how much of a Cash-and-Carry society they really are. Luckily the Shinkansen bullet train and a couple of taxi's would take it so I managed to get around.
Keith, Wayne, took the train around Tokyo that afternoon. Two areas we ended up in were Akihabara and Ochanomisu. Both large districts full of electronics and musical instuments. Unlike other types of cities, Tokyo is set up so that all of one type of store are arranged next to each other. One would think that this would create a lot of competition and drive competion and drive prices down. But perhaps being such a large metropolis, having the right location is everything because the locals know which district sells what. If you're buying fish, go to the fish market, if your buying a computer, go to the electronics district. I guess it makes sense.
Colin had called ahead and touched base with the Nippon Kaiyo guys from the boat and we arranged to meet that evening for beers and dinner. We went to a nice restaurant in the basement of the Prince complex and had some awesome authentic Japanese food.
The next day we slept in. Wayne caught his plane and went back home to Canada. Keith and Kelly went sight seeing. Tim and I walked around a bit in the afternoon. For dinner that night I met Kelly and Keith with Oda San from Nippon Kaiyo and we went to Sushi by the hotel. I'm not a fan really of sushi but I thought that I'd eat just a little to be polite. It turned out that this sushi was AWESOME!
After dinner we stayed in, went bowling in the two-story bowling alley at the Prince hotel. And ended up hanging out making a ruckus in Colin's room all night. The rest of the crew was leaving tomorrow and I was going to Kyoto until Karla got here. We said our good-byes and I packed my bags for an early departure the next day. The Unity job was officially over and done with. I consider it a wonderful success and I really hope to get the chance to do more Williamson jobs in the future. They're a great company to work for and I would go anywhere, any time with Colin and Mike. Thanks guys if you read this!

The 5th bolt is the hard one and that is why I removed the whole setup pump and all. That stud that mounts the EBTCM to the frame bracket is on a sleeve that slides over a rubber isolator, the rubber is covering the final bolt. I did not have to cycle the abs system after just bleed the brakes.

Re: EBTCM,Electronic Brake & Traction Control Module
Okay! Now. so that I don't misunderstand... The stud I have the nut off at this point is on a sleeve. That sleeve slides over a rubber insulator (presumably that is what I can see "along side" the frame mounting bracket?) and the insulator covers the head of the #5 fastener (which is in fact a bolt, right?). So -before I "Rip and Tear" and screw something up- this raises two more simple (I HOPE!) questions: 1)how do I proceed (correctly" THE FIRST TIME) to remove the stud and/orthe insulator WITHOUT removing the valve body, and 2)is it indeed POSSIBLE AT ALL to remove the EBTCM (proper) leaving the brake line piping intact, thus avoiding not only having to bleed, but also the Dreaded Twisted Off Brake Line Syndrome! Sure, I have proper line wrenches, but even though the lines themselves are not visibly rusty, there is no guarantee that a line connected with a flared
joint that was made 16 years ago hasn't become "slow-welded" together. Pointing out the location, I will only be able to either SEE or REACH (but not both at the same time). Rusty lines that fail at disassembly should absolutely be changed, and I am not afraid to do whatever I HAVE to do if and when the time comes, but I would rather NOT "induce my own difficulties" if at all possible.
crabgrass...Thank You very much for taking the time to "take up the task". Sorry for the somewhat tardy reply, but, well...you must understand...Needs of Service only allow me to "play" with this at IT'S choosing! The olderer I get, the less hours there are in a day (aging is NOT for the
Faint-hearted!!!). Thanks Again

Re: EBTCM,Electronic Brake & Traction Control Module
Swap is complete. Operational check 100%!
Here's "how to do it" on '95/'96 Cadillacs using AC Delco P/N 25633191 module. It is my understanding that other years are similarly installed. Before beginning, remove the air cleaner "lid", the filter, and the filter box lower half. This is held
down by two rubber "frommitses", lift the box up and off these rubbers and slide the "legs" out from under the top opening of the PCM top cover. Next (and...you will have to remove the steel corner brace plate to complete this step) grab
the PCM (complete) by the side facing the engine and lift it up and off similar rubber frommitses on the inboard side. When these are free, there is one more thing holding the PCM in place...there is a plastic "horn" molded onto the case that
is pointer right at your belt buckle. Lift the PCM up and out of the hole in the fender wall and stow it (my "donor car" had enough slack to simply turn it around and let it lay on the engine nicely; the ESC wouldn't reach that far and I needed toturn it and lean it against the fender. Okay, let's get greasy!
1) remove -and stow out of the way- the terminal strip connector. There is a shiny "latch" that folds down over the connector on the forward end. Lift this latch, pull upwards on the aft lifting stub and the connector "swings" up and forward
on and molded-in "hook" watch this action carefully the first time you do this, as it is very easy to re-connect the connector WRONGLY and/or BREAK STUFF.
2) from under the car, locate and LOOSEN ONLY the three 10mm NUTS that secure the pump body AND the elec. module (as a unit) to the frame mount. Two are located in the "slot" (opening) between the frame and the radiator support, and
the rear nut is accessible through an opening in the frame stamping.
3) shove upwards from underneath to slide the three studs holding these nuts up and out of the SLOTS that are in the top of the mounting bracket. Not to worry, there's lots of flex in the brake lines and any line(s) that is too rusty as to
break at this "insult" weren't safe to drive on anyway, and needed replacing before you "spoiled them" with this mild abuse.
4) using a #25 Torx bit (I found that a spring-type 1/4" flex extension to be the secret weapon here, sometimes in conjuction with a regular 6" long extension) (I also found that removing the clamps that secure a wire loom across the front
face of the lower frame crossover provides the required "little more room" making this job less stressful) remove the four corner screws (other years are alledged to have more).
5) to access what has herein come to be known as the "fifth bolt", you will have to now work off the rubber dodad that the stud is mounted to in order to get to the Torx "socket head bolt" (Gawd, that was SO EASY to say, considering that
this is so difficult to figure out -the first time- because this is a weird way of attaching things that is actually beautifully simple and my old eyes don't focus up close so pretty good anymore) that it is hiding. Penetrating oil will solve the
issue of the rubber "bore" of this bushing RUSTING TO what is actually the "stub" on the bolt head that this rubber bush/mounting stud is hiding. You only need to "dislodge" this one rubber thingie, leave the other two on the pump body in place IF YOU CAN, 'cause they are a BEAR to get back in place through and around the frame (the rear one especially, don't ask me how I know!).
6) once this has be accomplished, nothing is keeping the module on the side of the pump body except for a thin diameter rubber gasket that may or may not be stuck to the face of the parting line. There are, however two plugs mated right
near the bottom edge that you can clearly see, looking up from the bottom. The module is very light for its size, and with the flex in the brake lines available, it all comes apart very simply and easily. I removed one from the bottom, the
other from the top.
7) installation is the reverse of removal. MIND THE MANNER in which you reinstall the EBTCM connector plug! It needs to go STRAIGHT DOWN onto its heel over the pivot point, where it then TIPS from straight up-and-down to flat, and in
place. The metal "lock" needs to be "open" while this is all happening, until you actually LOCK IT when the plug has mated properly. You CANNOT correctly mate this plug if the lock is down as you tip it in. You WILL see why they cast on
the little lifting ear on the rear end. It makes it possible to not only LIFT the connector when you unlock it, it allows you to LOCK the lock, when you have it properly closed, by giving you a place to get the right forefinger in there to hold
it closed while your left hand locks the lock.
8) reinstall the PCM, air cleaner box, filter and lid, and the corner brace. Redo the clamps on the lower wire run (and the plastic engine guard piece IF it was still there). Don't forget to reconnect the airflow sensor on the filter lid BEFORE you
put the plastic cover back on the relay/fusebox, or you might freak out when you next fire up and see if you fixed it, and get a Check Engine Light about sixty feet down the road!

Customers demand accurate, relevant, and complete answers to their questions upon first contact - served up as painlessly as possible - so they can get back to what they were doing before the issue arose.
Forrester data backs this up: In our December 2015 "Customer Lifecycle Survey," we found that 53% of customers are likely to abandon their online purchases if they can't find quick answers to their questions. 73% say that valuing their time is the most important thing companies can do to provide them with good customer service. We also found that older customers are just as, if not more, intolerant to friction in their customer service interactions as younger consumers.
Customer service organizations have to deliver easy and effective service. If they don't, customers will leave the brand. They will also complain to their networks about their experience. These emotions can get rapidly amplified in the world of social media and ultimately lead to brand erosion.

1 Answer | Add Yours
Are you trying to find differences or find similarities?
if your trying to find differences i would suggest a poet from a different era such as Alexander pope as Keats wrote in an era of literature that was a direct rebellion to the religious and rationolistic views of the neo-classical era of literature. To find similarities i would suggest William Wordsworth, who ,like Keats wrote about nature being an eternal beauty and source of inner peace and spirituality, things that were lacking in the neo-classical period.

|13 November 1904
Salur, Vizianagaram district
|18 November 1982(aged 78)
|writer, journalist
Puripanda Appala Swamy (1904–1982), also spelled Appalaswamy, was a linguist, writer, translator, journalist and editor.[1]
Early life[edit]
He was born in Salur, Vizianagaram district on 13 November 1904. After primary education, he learned Telugu, Sanskrit and many other languages including Oriya, Hindi, Bengali and English.

He published 'Vaisakhi', a monthly magazine with a praise from literary populace.
The credit of discovering the Mahakavi Sri Sri should go to Puripanda, who identified him at young age and published his poems in his own journal. Puripanda was his friend, phylosopher and guide as long as he lived. He took him to London and got his voice and handwriting recorded and published by Gutala Krishnamurthy. Sri Sri reciprocated this by translating the poems of Puripanda into English and remained his lifelong friend and admirer.[2]

text: Jan 05, 2012 - When I first got this product I didn't really love it, but I kept coming back to it and I learned how to best use it with my hair, and now I get such good results that I can't use anything else! I put it in my hair when it's damp, not dripping wet, that way I get more curl enhancement, and then I top it off with a bit of BRHG for hold. It gives me consistently good results! And believe me, I tried really hard to find other more inexpensive products that would do the same thing, but nothing can compare! For me it's worth the money, I get great hair, and it lasts fairly long.

Lets say an atheist is wrong well you get the point! I think its very arrogant to say with 100% certainty you know exactly how things went down 1000s or millions of years ago because science that we created says so also I think its probably a bit nieve to think every detail of the Bible is exactly how we interpret it.

By Colleen Slevin, Associated Press Writer
DENVER (AP) — Amazon.com Inc. cut ties Monday with Colorado online businesses that help it sell products because of a new state law aimed at getting out-of-state, online retailers to collect sales tax.
The move hurts businesses — many of them small, home-based operations — that earn money by using their Web sites and blogs to link customers to online retailers. Colorado has at least 4,200 such businesses, known as affiliates or associates, accounting for about 5,000 jobs, and most of them rely on Amazon to some degree, according to their trade group, the Performance Marketing Association.
The group's executive director, Rebecca Madigan, said some get only about 10% of their revenue from Amazon but others are totally reliant on it.
Colorado's largest affiliate, ShopAtHome.com, works with 5,000 online merchants and will be able to recover from the lost business, president Marc Braunstein said. But many "mom and pop" affiliates will suffer.
"There are a lot of people who are going to be hurt, and that's a shame," Braunstein said.
In an e-mail to affiliates, Amazon said the new sales tax regulations, which took effect last week, were burdensome and unlike rules in any other state. An Amazon spokeswoman declined to elaborate.
The company previously cut off affiliates in two other states that passed online sales tax laws, Rhode Island and North Carolina. Those states said online retailers had a presence there through affiliates and therefore had to pay sales tax. At the urging of affiliates, Colorado lawmakers took a different approach that attempted to leave affiliates out of the fight.
The law here says retailers can either collect sales tax or send customers an annual statement telling them how much they spent and how much sales tax they should pay the state on their own. The state would be able to force retailers to turn over customer sales records to enforce the law.

NPR reports that according to a new article in the journal Nature, the tropical disease dengue is more widespread than previously thought. The study in Nature estimates that the number of infections each year could be triple or quadruple the amount tallied by the World Health Organization.
In an interview with Thomas Scott, a professor at the University of California Davis and one of the author's of the report in Nature, NPR's Jason Beaubien explores the spread of the disease.
"The World Health Organization puts the number of dengue infections globally at just a fraction of (400 million)," Beaubien said. "Prior to 1970, the mosquito-borne disease had only been reported in nine countries, according to the WHO. Now it's endemic in more than 100, and it continues to spread."
Scott explains that people living in substandard conditions are more susceptible to the disease due to lack of clean running water and proper waste disposal methods.

Spoliation and the long-awaited federal e-discovery rule changes

Ludlow, N. Piers (2003) A waning force: the Treasury and British European Policy, 1955-1963. Contemporary British History, 17 (4). pp. 87-104. ISSN 1361-9462
This article explores the role of the Treasury in the formulation and implementation of Britain's European policy in the period between the Messina conference and the failure of the first membership bid. It points to a strong contrast between the 1955-59 period, during which the Treasury, aided and abetted by the Board of Trade, was the dominant force in British European policy, and the early 1960s when the Cabinet and Foreign Offices successfully challenged for the position as lead department in this policy area. The final section of the article seeks to explain the disappearance of Treasury pre-eminence, suggesting that factors ranging from the personality of the Chancellor to the subject and context of negotiations with Western European interlocutors help explain why the Treasury appeared a waning force in the making of Britain's policy towards the EEC.

Cow vertebra in tank?
I have a decent-sized cow vertebra, about 4" long, which I was thinking would look cool in a tank. As I recall, it spent awhile in a field with other bones, then was boiled to clean it, then sat in a wheelbarrow for awhile before I bought it and soaked it in a bucket of water for two weeks. How can I make sure it doesn't have any chemical stuff on it? I think it would be a cool thing to have in my 65G...
Don't have much in the way of advice, but that's one of the most interesting post titles I've seen in a while. I'd just boil it again for good measure, unless it was in an agricultural field in which case I'd be too freaked by the possibility of herbicides to do anything with it.
It might have been boiled with Borax in the water, then bleached to whiten it.
You should be able to smell any cleaning products on it.
Chances are it's O.K. If your worried soak it in water with Prime 10 drops per gallon.
It doesn't smell like chemicals, just smells like cow pasture. I'll boil it again with an overdose of water conditioner in there, and that should probably do it...
Is white or does it have a yellow tint? White would be completely dried out. Yellow would still have some animal fats/oils in it. If it's yellow, then research Taxidermy, preserving a skull.
depending on what is in the tank it could really cause problems. the longer the bone is in water the more it will break down. it could take several years to do so but as it does it will leach calcium into the water and alter the chemistry of the tank. if you are really set on doing this boiling is good. i would then let it air dry for a while a couple weeks or so to make sure it was completely dry all the way though. i would then find a clear acrylic spray and seal it several times.
It's pretty much white, except for where algae grew on it when I was soaking it. Do you think coating it in aquarium silicone would seal it?
Can I just say YUCK!! LOL!
lol - I just posted on your squirrel skeleton thread. I really want to see pics of this tank - I used to collect animal skulls when I was young, and I bet this will be interesting! :hihi:
It'll probably end up with more bones when I find them... Hmm, I think I'll just thickly coat the vertebra in aquarium silicone. I'm totally gonna put a fish skeleton in here if I get one intact enough... Not one of my fish, of course.
You gotta post some pics!!!
I could see using bones in a Pygocentrus nattereri aquascape :hihi:
Yeah, they would look great in a pirhana tank! Especially if you let them clean the bones themselves.
I'm going to post some pics as soon as the tannins clear up a bit, it's kind of hard to see clearly right now.
Just posted in your squirrel thread, but pretty much same thing, I wouldn't worry too much about it deteriorating/affecting water parameters, just chuck it in. When I've come across animal skulls in streams, they have usually been completely coated with algae, (more so then the surrounding rocks) so I'm guessing that will happen in a tank as well.
If you are concerned, I'd coat it with a clear epoxy resin, it will be easier to deal with then silicone, and it will just make the bone look wet/glossy (which won't really matter when it's submerged)
