Barry Mehler, Ferris State University
History and Philosophy of Psychology Bulletin
Vol. 10, No. 2, 1998
In 1985, historian of psychology Michael Sokal
wrote that "Psychology, more than most other sciences, can
learn much from the past, and so should devote much attention
both to its own history and to that of human beings at large"
(p. 242). Taking the APA to task, Sokal commented, "unfortunately,
much evidence suggests that APA authors . . . not only do not
care about history but also, when they are forced to consider
it, do so sloppily." Sokal pointed out that journals such
as Science require "that any article - whatever its
subject - that employs statistical methodology be refereed by
statisticians." Just as expertise in any given area does
not imply expertise in statistics, so too, "expertise in
any area of psychology does not imply expertise in the history
of that area" (Sokal, 1985, p. 242).
Historians of science have focused a great deal
of attention on the idea of the social context of science. In
fact, one reason why the history of eugenics has been so extensively
examined in the past two decades is because it is an excellent
example of the interaction between science and society. As a historian
of science who has been studying the history of psychology and
eugenics for over 20 years, I attempted to place Dr. Cattell's
work in a context that clarifies the historiography of eugenics
and Dr. Cattell's place within that historiography. In a 1997
essay, I suggested that ideologues of the radical right, and above
all interwar fascists, have been uniquely and centrally involved
in the development of eugenics and that
for all the heterogeneity of both eugenics
and fascism, the special historical relationship between the
two cannot be ignored. This relationship is exemplified in
the work of the influential psychologist, Raymond B. Cattell.
Cattell was an early supporter of German national socialism
and his work should be understood in the context of interwar
fascism. The new religious movement that he founded, "Beyondism,"
is a neo-fascist contrivance. Cattell now promulgates ideas
that he first formulated within a demimonde of radical eugenists
and neo-fascists that includes such associates as Revilo Oliver,
Roger Pearson, Wilmot Robertson and Robert K. Graham. These
ideas and Cattell's role in the history of eugenics deserve
deeper analysis than they have hitherto received. Far from
being of merely antiquarian interest, his work currently encourages
the propagation of radical eugenist ideology. It is unconscionable
for scholars to permit these ideas to go unchallenged, and
indeed honored and emulated by a new generation of ideologues
and academicians whose work helps to dignify the most destructive
political ideas of the twentieth century (Mehler, 1997, p.
A short essay such as this cannot possibly explore
the thesis I have outlined here. However, I would like to advance
the discussion of the social and historical context of Dr. Cattell's
work by addressing the question of the centrality of his Beyondist
ideology to his science and offering a clarification of what Cattell
meant by "genthanasia" - a term that he coined to mean
the "nonviolent intentional phasing out of a culture or group"
(Hilts, 1997, p. A10; cf. Cattell, 1972, p. 221). During the email
discussion leading up to these essays, Dr. Heather Cattell argued
that her father's involvement with the publication, The Beyondist,
was insignificant. According to her, "a few people tried
to involve Dad" in "this obscure Beyondist newsletter"
which never got beyond one or two issues and "is certainly
not Dad's writing" (H. Cattell, 1998).
That the essay in The Beyondist was indeed
R. B. Cattell's writing is made clear by a memo and draft circulated
by John Horn in 1993. On 28 September 1993, John Horn - Cattell's
protege and longtime associate - wrote a memo to which he attached
a draft statement written by Raymond B. Cattell to the "self-
appointed executive group" of the "Beyondism working
group" (Horn, 1993). Horn identifies the draft, entitled
"The Beyondist Society: First Annual Meeting" as "Ray's
suggestion for the first Newsletter of the Beyondism Society,"
and comments that he "thinks it needs some editing, some
modifications, some shortening, and some added to before it goes
to hoards of folks" and he asked for comments. The draft
was addressed to Cattell's closest associates including Herb Eber,
Robert Graham, John Gillis, Richard Gorsuch, John Nesselroad,
and Jack McArdle. McArdle and Eber, among others, have denied
having any significant engagement with the group (see Blum, 1994;
Links to Beyondism, 1993, p. 207).
In the 1993 draft Cattell states that "One
major task we have to face is getting the ideals of Beyondism
accepted in what is presently a hostile social atmosphere."
Cattell contended that "Beyondism is an increasing acceptance
of reality, and that involves dropping the emotional support of
a loving omnipotent god." As an example of a reality that
needed accepting, Cattell asked, "Should the more successful
[nations] bolster up the less successful (as the U.S. does Somalia).
. . ." Cattell's position is that the U.S. ought not interfere
with natural selection by obstructing "natural self-genocide."
The first issue of The Beyondist was published
in November 1993 with the draft essay in revised form. The quotes
from the previous paragraph had been edited out of the final draft,
but it is clear that the essay in The Beyondist was Cattell's
own words. In response to a request from this author, Dr. Cattell
sent me the first issue of the The Beyondist in June 1994
along with a personal handwritten letter in which he states: "At
present we are a 'still small voice in the wilderness' but progress
will put our views in the public eye before long."
In his 1972 monograph on Beyondism, Cattell recommended
that First World countries allow Third World countries "to
go to the wall" when they collapse into chaos, mass famine,
and genocide. He argued that foreign aid to underdeveloped Third
World countries is a mistake. Incompetent and obsolete societies
are not fit for the competitive struggle for existence. What he
called for, according to Richard Lynn was "not genocide,
the killing off of the populations of incompetent cultures. But
we do need to think realistically in terms of 'phasing out' of
such peoples (Cattell, 1972, pp. 219-221; Lynn).
In 1991, sociologist Pierre Van Den Bergh of the
University of Washington delivered an address, "Nation-Building:
A Blueprint for Genocide?" before the First International
Congress on Prejudice, Discrimination and Conflict, held in Jerusalem,
Israel. Professor Van den Bergh pointed out that, at a minimum,
two-thirds of all people killed by states since 1945 have been
internal victims of genocide or politicides. "Estimates of
internal blood baths yield totals of 6.8 to 16.3 million victims
- megadeaths - between 1945 and 19.87, depending on whose figures
one accepts... However one wants to classify acts of state sponsored
murder it is clear that since World War 11, three-fourths of all
fatalities were caused by states killing their own citizens ..."
Genthanasia is simply an obsfucation of genocide.
There is no such thing as "natural self-genocide." What
happened in Somalia was not natural - it was the result of political
conflict, and those who died were victims. What Cattell calls
genthanasia, Van den Bergh calls ethnocide and genocide committed
by elites. Throughout much of Africa, small western-educated elites
have inherited an alien colonial system of government perpetuated
by minority rule through corruption and violence; these elites
have appropriated all organs of state control for private exploitation
and gain through a complex network of nepotism and ethnic favoritism.
This is about as nationalist as the Sicilian Mafia or the Medellin
drug cartel.
When it was announced in the July 1997 APA
Monitor that Raymond B. Cattell was to receive the American
Psychological Foundation's prestigious Gold Medal Award for Life
Achievement to the Science of Psychology, it was noted that Dr.
Cattell decided to work in psychology because it "would be
the most direct way to solve the political and economic problems
around him" (APF recognizes, 1997. p. 48). In other words,
Dr. Cattell's science was intended to solve social and political
problems. I believe that, when viewed in historical context and
despite his protests to the contrary, it is clear that Cattell's
notion of "phasing out" what he calls "moribund
cultures" is little more than support for genocide.

QUENTIN DEMPSTER: In Sydney dozens of organisations try to meet the basic needs of the down and out but one laterally thinking organisation has gone one step further. Sarah Schofield reports.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: The problems faced by the thousands of homeless people in this state are complex. Simply giving them a bed, a meal or even a job won't necessarily fix their situation.
SUE CHANT, CEO, VINCENTIAN VILLAGE: I suppose a common theme would be that they have had some kind of trauma in their life in the past. We have people that come and access this service that have been successful business men, that for one reason or another they've lost everything.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: In the heart of Sydney there are dozens of services for the homeless. The Vincentian Village, run by the St Vincent de Paul Society, is just one. Here the basic needs of the homeless are met. There's a day service which provides meals, washing facilities and crisis care which looks at where someone is going to sleep, management of their mental health problems and drug dependencies. The village also has a number of apartments for homeless families. This service is unique in Sydney in that it focuses on helping single dads. And there's also an aged care hostel for elderly men and women who've been homeless and have no family or support network. Two years ago the St Vincent de Paul Society decided it wanted to move beyond providing these basic services. For some time it'd been interested in a program - which had been successful in the US - it involved taking university classes to the homeless. The idea behind the concept was to look past the beds and meals and to start feeding minds.
PETER HOWARD, AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY: What they did was they approached a few universities and a few of the universities felt, why would we want to be interested in working with the homeless people? So when they came to myself at Australian Catholic University I said we can do this. The subjects we picked were from the humanities and the students when they finish four units end up receiving a certificate in Liberal Arts.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: The course material is identical to that given to undergraduate students at the Australian Catholic University. Graham English lectures in ethics.
GRAHAM ENGLISH, AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY: Some of them are struggling - they're just struggling with everything and it's almost an achievement to get there and it's an achievement to be there. There was one person last year who couldn't do the assignments because life was just pressing down too hard but who wanted to stay and have the discussions but I'd have been really disappointed had he pulled out because he was making a really genuine contribution.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: The course is made up of four subjects: ethics, spirituality, Australian Contemporary History and Art History. Each semester only one subject is offered and the class is limited to 15.
GRAHAM ENGLISH: The biggest realisation I've had in doing all of this is how thin a line it is between me and them that one nervous breakdown or one unfortunate incident in my life or something that I could be there.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: Many of the students have faced difficult personal situations. One of the participants agreed to speak about his circumstances but wished to be known only by his first name.
ANDREW, STUDENT: I'm a middle-aged man one could refer to me as a corporate refugee with a former life in the professional industry. I've been a client of this service for some years now, four or five. I guess it was popular when I sought out some sort of asylum and I found refuge here and I became well known here. I find it comfortable - to my needs. It provides me with those living skills I otherwise haven't developed.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: Each student is matched up with a learning partner who's like a tutor - and they meet once a week for an hour or so.
MERYL McQUEEN, LEARNING PARTNER: The primary role of the learning partner is just to support the students as they go through the program so they're actually working with them on some of those academic skills such as researching and writing and putting their assignments together and really having a chance to just talk about the subject outside of class.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: The learning partners also help students find their way around the internet and with word processing.
TUTOR: Are you feeling confident about using the computer?
MAN: It's interesting you should say that because I was feeling computer illiterate but here they gave me a touch typing program. Well, I can do 20 words a minute with both hands at the moment which for me is amazing.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: It's an unusual idea taking university to the homeless. A lot of people in the community would say why aren't you teaching these people how to get a job?
SUE CHANT: I think it's very simplistic to think all you need to do is help somebody get a job because that isn't the beginning and the end of everything. It's empowering the person to take control over their lives to give them choices and allow them to take the direction that they need to take in their lives.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: Now you've only got one more subject in the program before you get your certificate. Where to from there?
ANDREW: I think that I might aim for some sort of part-time post- graduate study - a subject and program yet to be decided - but it's stimulated me to believe I could apply myself to some proper post- graduate level of study on campus.
SARAH SCHOFIELD: Mission Australia will start their own program with the Australian Catholic University in Sydney in July, and in Brisbane next year. Several councils in Victoria are also looking at the model.

1) Open the notebook that contains your desired styles.
2) Click on the menu command sequence
Format -> Edit Style Sheet...
3) If a dialog box shows up (doubt if it will, but just in case), select
"Import private copy."
4) With the stylesheet notebook as your selected notebook, click on the
menu command sequence:
File -> Save
This will save the style definitions embedded in your notebook as an
external style sheet file. Give it some descriptive name for future
5) To make the style sheet available on your Format -> Style Sheet menu,
just copy the file to one of two locations:
The first and third directory may not exist on your system, so you may
need create them manually.
The first directory is the preferred configurations on muti-user systems
such as Unix and Windows NT, where an individual may not have
permission to make changes to the core Mathematica installation.
$TopDirectory and $PreferencesDirectory may be determined by pasting
value display objects in a notebook text cell:
a) In a new notebook, click on the following menu command:
Format -> Style -> Text
b) Next, click on the following menu command:
Input -> Create Value Display Object...
c) On the resulting dialog box, locate the pull-tab menu with the
"Global variable:" and set it to variable you want to view. This
variable name should then appear in the blank at the top of the
dialog box. Click the "OK" button.

George Robert Newhart known professionally as Bob Newhart, is a stand-up comedian and actor. Noted for his deadpan and slightly stammering delivery, Newhart came to prominence in the 1960s when his album of comedic monologues The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart was a worldwide bestseller and reached #1 on the Billboard pop music charts—it remains the 20th best-selling album in history (10/2007). The follow-up album, The Button-Down Mind Strikes Again! was also a massive success, and both albums held the Billboard #1 and #2 spots simultaneously, a feat unequaled until the 1991 release of Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II by hard rock band Guns N' Roses.
Newhart later went into acting, starring in two long-running and prize-winning situation comedies, first as psychologist Dr. Robert "Bob" Hartley on the 1970s sitcom The Bob Newhart Show and then as innkeeper Dick Loudon on the 1980s sitcom Newhart. He also had a third sitcom that was short-lived and initially successful but was soon canceled, named Bob. Newhart also appeared in film roles such as Major Major in Catch-22, and Papa Elf in Elf. He provided the voice of Bernard in the Walt Disney animated films The Rescuers and The Rescuers Down Under. One of his most recent roles is the library head Judson in The Librarian.
- He was awarded the Annual Kennedy Centre Mark Twain Prize for Comedy.
- Nominated for a 2007 Grammy Award in the Best Spoken Word Album category for his album "I Shouldn't Even Be Doing This!".
- His 1960 comedy album "The Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart" went to #1 on the charts, beating out 'Elvis Presley' (qv) and _The Sound of Music (1965)_ (qv) cast album. The album won three Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year for 1960.
- Appeared on "The Ed Sullivan Show" (a.k.a. _"Toast of the Town" (1948)_ (qv)) 8 times.
- Newhart insisted that there be no children for his character to be the father of in each of his television series. "I told the creators I didn't want any children, because I didn't want it to be a show about 'How stupid Daddy is, but we love him so much, let's get him out of the trouble he's gotten himself into.'" In the sixth year of Newhart's successful 1972 CBS series, _"The Bob Newhart Show" (1972)_ (qv), the writers wrote a script in which Emily Hartley was pregnant. When Newhart was asked his opinion of the script, he said, "It's very funny. Who are you going to get to play 'Bob'?".
- Was considered for the role of Andy Stone in _Casino (1995)_ (qv).
- Every television series he starred in has his name in the title: _"The Bob Newhart Show" (1961)_ (qv), _"The Bob Newhart Show" (1972)_ (qv), _"Newhart" (1982)_ (qv), _"Bob" (1992)_ (qv), and _"George & Leo" (1997)_ (qv) (George is his real first name, Robert is his middle name).
- His wife came up with the idea for "The Last Newhart" (the last episode of _"Newhart" (1982)_ (qv)), in which the entire series _"Newhart" (1982)_ (qv) was all a dream of Dr. Bob Hartley of _"The Bob Newhart Show" (1972)_ (qv).

In the event of my funeral
Not planning to die any time soon, but a combination of talking to condescending Christians and finding out I need to seriously work on my health has me thinking about the subject more than I have in years. So I'm writing this post as a record of my wishes for those who would be tasked with the arrangements.
Regarding the ceremony, please have one. Ceremonies are good. Hold it wherever you want, run it as you see fit, as casual or as formal as you deem appropriate, invite whoever you like.
– but –
If the ceremony is presided over by a priest (or any religious officer), or if any speaker prays, or says anything about God, or the Bible, or Heaven, or any kind of afterlife (excepting the most figurative sense ie "live on in our memories, through his great deeds etc"), then the following disclaimer must be read at the end of the service on my behalf:
If this message is being read to you it means I'm no longer alive, and religion has been invoked on the occasion of my funeral. This is permissible, perhaps to be expected, but now I must have the last word on the subject, because I am the guest of honour.
For the record, I want it to be known that I do not endorse any attempt to turn the occasion of my death into a religious one.
I don't believe in God, or the afterlife, or any of that stuff. I am quite sure my existence has come to an end. And if somehow on some vanishingly small off-chance it hasn't, please know that it's still far more likely that I live on in a parallel universe, or that we've all been living in the Matrix, than that I'm flouncing about in Heaven or roasting in eternal Hellfire.
So anyway… be as happy as you can for as long as you can, because this life is almost certainly the only one you're going to get. Learn more about science and the natural world, and try to appreciate your good fortune to be alive at such an incredible time in human history.
Savour it.
NB If the ceremony is as utterly without religious reference and iconography as it would be were I organizing it myself, feel free to quote or paraphrase from that as you see fit, but leave off the first paragraph and maybe start at "I don't believe in God…"

iTunes link: Last.fm – Free
This app essentially takes the best bits of the excellent Last.fm site and squeezes them into your iPhone. It allows you to create customised music stations based on a single artist that it then populates with songs from similar artists that it thinks you will like. The track selections are based on previous music you've played or tracks that other users with similar tastes have enjoyed.
The app also includes some simple social networking features. For example, you can view the users that have most listened to a selected song and then browse their playlists or see what they're currently listening to. You can rate tracks as they are played to help the service build up a better idea of your likes and dislikes, which it then uses to improve the playlist it automatically generates for you.
The Last.fm service is superb, but the company has also produced a great app that looks attractive and is easy to use.

Movie: More Than Honey
Fifty years ago, Albert Einstein predicted "If bees were to disappear from the globe, mankind would only have four years left to live."
Oscar-nominated director Markus Imhoof (THE BOAT IS FULL) tackles the vexing issue of why bees, worldwide, are facing extinction. With the tenacity of a man out to solve a world-class mystery, he investigates this global phenomenon, from California to Switzerland, China and Australia. Exquisite macro-photography of the bees (reminiscent of MICROCOSMOS) in flight and in their hives reveals a fascinating, complex world in crisis. Writes Eric Kohn in Indiewire: "Imhoof captures the breeding of queen bees in minute detail, ventures to a laboratory to witness a bee brainscan, and discovers the dangerous prospects of a hive facing the infection of mites. In this latter case, the camera's magnifying power renders the infection in sci-fi terms, as if we've stumbled into a discarded scene from David Cronenberg's THE FLY." This is a strange and strangely moving film that raises questions of species survival in cosmic as well as apiary terms.
MENU: Bee-Friendly Brunch
Fruit Salad with FL Avocado
80% of fruits and vegetables are pollinated by bees, and 100% of this fruit salad. Thanks to bees, you can enjoy this salad made from watermelon, papaya, cantaloupe, mango, avocado, cilantro, and lime.
Broccoli Mushroom Quiche with Truffle Oil
We need bees to pollinate broccoli and truffle oil to marinate mushrooms to create this divinely-delicious vegan quiche. Enjoy a medley of vegetables combined with the earthy tones of mushrooms and truffle oil, all relaxing together in a smooth and creamy sauce.
Veggie-Bean-Sage Patties
Beans need bees, too. Bees are responsible for pollinating a wide variety of beans from adzuki, kidney, lima, mung, string, green and many more. We're using a mix of our favorite beans mashed together with some bee-friendly vegetables and fresh sage and Cuban oregano from the garden-- with a hint of smoky goodness-- to create this brunch-time favorite.
Pancakes with Mango-Chipotle Syrup
There's nothing better than fresh hot-off-the-griddle gluten-free pancakes smothered in a local mango syrup with a kick of smoky hot chipotle peppers. Our pancakes are created from a mixture of oats, bananas, and sorghum flour to make these short stacks gluten-free and delicious. Thanks to the bees again for pollinating all our local mango trees that line the streets of Miami!
Coffee Cake with Toasted Nuts
Bees pollinate more than fruits and vegetables-- they are also responsible for pollinating the coffee plant and many of our favorite nut trees like cashew, almond, brazil, hazelnut, chestnut, coconut, and more. This dessert is our brunch homage to the bees and their amazing wonderful work pollinating the majority of our foods and flowers. Thank you, Bees. We love you!
Mid-Movie Snack: It's a surprise!! You have to come to the movie to find out ; )

Biodynamic certified by The Demeter Association and produced with the least environmental impact. All growers and handlers must meet rigorous performance criteria in the following areas before being awarded the Biodynamic certification:
Biodynamics is the oldest sustainable system of agriculture practiced in the western world today, started by German philosopher Rudolph Steiner in 1924. The Biodynamic Method was later refined in the United States by Dr. Pfeiffer. In the late 1960's and early 70's, Alan Chadwick further developed the method into the Biodynamic French Intensive method of horticulture. Chadwick established a research facility and demonstration farm and garden at the University of California at Santa Cruz, which is now known as the Agroecology Program.
Biodynamics views the farm as a self-sustaining organism within the surrounding ecosystem. It emphasizes animals as being part of the farm ecosystem, and it takes into account the soil, earth, atmosphere, and cosmos. Biodynamics does not employ pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilizers. Instead, it relies on manure, crop rotations, biological pest control, and cosmic forces to put life back into soils and into the ecology of the farm. Biodynamic farming supplements organic methods with astronomy, and with homeopathic-like preparations and sprays produced on the farm to enhance and regulate plant growth, compost production, and soil fertility. Utilizing the Stella Natura Biodynamic agricultural calendar, Biodynamic farmers consider the positioning of the sun and the moon, and other "cosmic rhythms," as guides for when to prune, plant, or dig.

Everlast® Auto Floor outperforms rubber floors
Rubber tile floors look great in any industrial setting, perform well over time and have a low maintenance requirement. The question is: how does the price compare to Everlast Epoxy's Auto Floor in terms of life cycle costs?
The residential garage owner will be looking for a flooring solution that keeps a good appearance and won't see the virtue in overloading the budget unnecessarily. With an Everlast® Auto Floor in the garage, an expected life of 15 to 20 years sounds great for the price. It can be put down in about 3 days and easily maintained with attention about once every other month for the traffic it will experience.
On the other hand, an auto shop owner may be considering an either or idea of rubber flooring and epoxy flooring. Considering looks, the rubber flooring has a definite industrial quality and a slight natural scent. Whereas Everlast®'s AutoFloor epoxy would appear more customer friendly with various bright colors from which to choose in a lively pattern that seems more residential.
It takes more time to put the epoxy floor down, but you have the guarantee of a sealed floor and drains (in keeping with the EPA standards for water management) and the ability to wash away any grease or oil very quickly. The tile claims a water-tight seal, but quick and easy clean-up may not be as quick and easy with embossed tiles as it is with the smooth Everlast® epoxy floor. Abrasive tests will differ, as the epoxy surface will resist abrasion more effectively, while impact and sealing integrity are comparable.
Will a rubber floor fade with time? And how bright are the colors? Does it reflect or absorb light?
Everlast® Auto Floor's bright colors don't fade and the surface reflects the light for greater visibility.
So that Everlast® Auto Floor has properties which make it an attractive and durable and along with the cost make it a bargain when compared to the rubber tile alternative.
It may come down to budget and preference when choosing between rubber and an epoxy floor coating. Rest assured, Everlast® Auto Floor is a garage epoxy flooring that will give you superb performance for every dollar you spend.

Not merely a game, a Test of will
Page Tools
Cricket fired the dreams of a young Amanda Dunn. Now her love of the sport has grown up.
I pinned it to the inside of my bedroom cupboard door so I wouldn't be in trouble for tarnishing the wallpaper. It was the second half of the 1980s, I was in early secondary school, and the prospect of another long summer was almost unbearably exciting. The main reason was indicated on the poster inside my cupboard a photograph of men dressed in green and gold, posed in rows and staring out at me. They were the Australian cricket team, a pretty ordinary outfit at a time when the game was dominated by the powerful, charismatic West Indians, but I loved them just the same.
As a child, my fondness for cricket seeped into me through some kind of osmosis, reaching out from the television or the radio for hour after hour on those summer days, following me into the car, or filtering from neighbours' windows as I walked down the street. Much of it was also generated by my English father, who had no interest in Australian football, but who would sit transfixed by a game of leather-on-willow, supporting Australia with a roar when someone hit a four or took a wicket, exhorting us to watch and see how exciting it was. So my brother and I would sit in the lounge room too, happy to be with him.
Gradually, I found myself watching the cricket more and more. I began to remember the players and develop favourites. I paid attention to the commentary, learning the rules and asking my dad to fill in any blanks. Soon I was hooked and looked forward to those hot days when the three of us would sit around the box in shorts and T-shirts, screaming with excitement when one of our cricketers played well, fading into silence when wickets fell, or an innings collapsed.
Looking back, the game was desperately boring then compared with the way the Australians play now. But somehow we stuck with it, keeping faith that soon maybe even next match there would be a Great Win, involving brilliant innings and spells and catches.
There was too, I must confess, a momentary fantasy in which I was going to be the first girl accepted into the Australian cricket team, a dream untroubled by my age, gender and lack of hand-eye co-ordination. But that's part of the attraction of the sports we love: for a moment, we can become the batter or swimmer or footballer or gymnast, morph into something we're not, and their glory is fleetingly ours.
Ours was a blind faith in which only the Australians were any good, or unfairly dismissed, or took brilliant catches. Richie Benaud was my favourite commentator and I would often parrot what he said about a passage of play when I wasn't sure what to make of it. This usually involved LBW decisions of which I was a poor judge, not quite understanding how to read the play, but wanting to show my dad that I had caught on, that I was a fellow cricket fan with whom he could have a serious conversation. From early on, part of the way we learned to talk to each other was through the game.
With each season, my interest in cricket grew, as the Australian team turned its fortunes around and gradually became the best in the world. There have been matches where, faced with Australia's certain defeat, I have been unable to watch, crestfallen, or have simply sat in cranky silence as the team was thrashed. Conversely, an exciting win could send me galloping around the house, desperate to tell someone, anyone, about the way the game had panned out.
I learned to multi-task too. As a bargaining chip for keeping our only television occupied for such a long time, on so many consecutive days, I would offer to do everyone's ironing while I watched.
Few things are more exciting than going to matches, and I go to the Boxing Day Test if I am in Melbourne, as well as at least one one-dayer each season. I remember once sitting through a Boxing Day morning in driving rain, desperate to show my American friends this game they did not know, and how exciting it could be. We sat there for several hours in the unseasonal chill, wearing daft plastic ponchos and hoping the skies would clear and play would begin.
In January 1994, when I was at university in southern Germany, I caught a glimpse of the Australian Open tennis on the television. At that moment, the camera panned out to show the crowds filing into the MCG for a one-dayer and for the first time in my overseas trip I felt a pang of homesickness.
And now, in the middle of winter, the cricket is on again. The Ashes is under way, with great expectation that the English team may, for the first time in years, break the iron grip the Australians have had on the series and provide an exciting and perhaps close contest. Friends who can't understand what I see in cricket tell me that it's boring, that nothing happens hour after hour, and a maiden over can feel like extreme viewing punishment.
But to me, cricket is a contest of endurance and strategy, a rare facet of life in which (in the Tests at least) people have a second chance, an opportunity to redeem themselves after early failure or disappointment. It is a game in which one man is battling against 11 who have studied him, analysed him, tried to pinpoint his weaknesses and exploit them.
But the other attraction of cricket is an aesthetic one. My favourite players, mostly batsmen, have been those who have hit the ball with an elegance and flair that can have an emotional effect on the spectator. Early on, once I had learned to acknowledge that other teams had good players too, I loved the batting of Englishman David Gower, a lean left-hander with curly blond hair who was exquisite to watch. But my favourite was always Mark Waugh, a taciturn character off the field whose batting was probably the most beautiful I have ever seen, perfectly timed, seemingly effortless. His running between the wickets and his slips fielding were equally good. In form, he was mesmerising, and I was always devastated when he was dismissed cheaply.
Most sports, when you pare them back to their bare mechanics, seem faintly ridiculous. Why do we, as a nation, get so excited about young people swimming up and down a stretch of water, or putting a ball through a hoop? And in cricket, why would we take five days to watch men in white throw a red ball at other men in white, who may or may not hit it with a piece of wood?
People will argue that it's about more than the mechanics, and they are right. Part of the attraction of sport is that it's life simplified: there's good and bad, right and wrong, rules that must be followed and a clear outcome at the end, even if that is a draw. But there is little murkiness and any perceived unfairness can be blamed on a third party the umpires.
Within the simple framework of sport, great passions are invested and yet by game's end, although we may be disappointed by a loss or a poor performance, it makes no material difference to our lives. It is not a matter of life or death and the spectator (unlike the player) gets to walk away, free of responsibility. It's just a game.
Nonethless, I am grateful to cricket for being there every summer without fail, for showing me a different kind of beauty, and for those long, hot days when we would gather around the box.

Shell wants you to travel safe during Holy Week
Ahhh Holy Week, the time for me to just stay at home, rest and recharge (or maybe catch up on some backlogs), and spend time with family.
For some though, it's the time to visit the province and enjoy the long break with loved ones. It's going to be a crowded road on the way to provinces and if you're driving, you might want to have your vehicle checked before hitting the long drive.
Shell invites motorists to have their vehicles checked at their nearest Shell service bay before they go on their Holy Week journeys.
Shell service bays' professional and friendly technicians are well equipped to provide you with excellent service and keep your vehicles running right. They have the largest service bay chain in the Philippines, and with almost 200 outlets of Shell Helix Service Centre and Shell Helix Oil Change+, you are sure to find an outlet near you. Some outlets even have customer lounge facilities that allow you to wait in comfort while your vehicle is being serviced.
Hmm this reminds me to get my spare tire fixed.
Get rewards
You will also get free premium safety gears if you avail any of the Shell Helix oil change packages. Every Shell Helix Ultra E oil change package gets you a Shell Helix Dynamo lantern, while a Shell Helix HX7 or Shell Helix Diesel HX7 oil change package gets you a Shell Helix Dynamo flashlight. This offer is available until March 31.
Oh and if you haven't tried the Shell V-Power Nitro+ Racing fuel, you should, especially if you're going on a long drive. I've done it. :)

It is increasingly evident that stripping weight is becoming perhaps the topmost priority in the world of football boots. The Puma King SL should be the answer of the Big Cat to the super-light 'heritage' boots of adidas (adiPure SL) and Nike (Tiempo Legend Elite).
All is set for the release of the new King, which has been worn in the past by greats like Maradona, Pelé and Eusébio. In fact, these boots have already been given a premature debut by Thierry Henry himself.
In a fairytale start to his second stint at Arsenal, the French striker on loan from the New York Red Bulls came off the bench and coolly slotted home to earn the Gunners the 4th round of the FA Cup with a victory over Leeds United.
For this successful 20 minute cameo, Henry opted for the White / Navy / Orange colourway, which should be accompanied by a Black / Red / Silver release.
Expected to be available for sale for approximately £ 160, the Puma King SL should feature a thin kangaroo leather upper.
As a weight-reducing measure for the scales to be tipped at a mere 218 g, the iconic fold-over tongue is done away with.
From an aesthetic point of view, one notices the Puma Form Stripe along the sides, together with the King's crown logo on the tongue and the word 'KING' beneath the laces, testifying the noble nature of this boot.

I like the 3 new maps a lot. Though I wish more DLC would come out. I would like to see the elite maps put into regular rotation with the other maps, if only for more variety.
That said, Overwatch may be the best map ever when playing HQ. I routinely rack up 50 plus kills and you often go to the time limit because some of the HQ's are so hard to capture.
For the large maps though, I would appreciate some more spawn points. It takes a really long time to get from A to B on Overwatch when you're playing Demolition. Sometimes it seems like you run for 2 minutes just to get shot and and do it all over again. But i diregress.
The Gun Games are fun. But I freak'n can't stand 1 in the chamber, ESPECIALLY on a larger map. I have been on and been stuck watching the last two guys just camp each other for 5 minutes, and that's just lame. I can't stand that game.

FDA Approves Brisdelle for Hot Flashes Due to Menopause »
"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved Brisdelle (paroxetine)to treat moderate to severe hot flashes (vasomotor symptoms) associated with menopause. Brisdelle, which contains the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor paroxetine mes"...
Read the FDA Approves Brisdelle for Hot Flashes Due to Menopause article »
CombiPatch is indicated in a woman with a uterus for:
- Treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause.
- Treatment of moderate to severe symptoms of vulvar and vaginal atrophy due to menopause. When prescribing solely for the treatment of symptoms of vulvar and vaginal atrophy, topical vaginal products should be considered.
- Treatment of hypoestrogenism due to hypogonadism, castration, or primary ovarian failure.
Generally, when estrogen therapy is prescribed for a postmenopausal woman with a uterus, a progestin should be considered to reduce the risk of endometrial cancer. A woman without a uterus generally does not need a progestin. In some cases, however, hysterectomized women with a history of endometriosis may need a progestin. Use of estrogen-alone or in combination with a progestin, should be with the lowest effective dose and for the shortest duration consistent with treatment goals and risks for the individual woman. Postmenopausal women should be reevaluated periodically as clinically appropriate to determine whether treatment is still necessary. Adequate diagnostic measures, such as directed or random endometrial sampling, when indicated, should be undertaken to rule out malignancy in a postmenopausal woman with a uterus with undiagnosed persistent or recurring abnormal genital bleeding.
Initiation Of Therapy
Patients should be started at the lowest dose. Estrogens with or without progestins should be prescribed at the lowest effective doses and for the shortest duration consistent with treatment goals and risks for the individual woman. The lowest effective dose of CombiPatch has not been determined in clinical trials.
Women not currently using continuous estrogen or combination estrogen plus progestin therapy may start therapy with CombiPatch at any time. However, women currently using continuous estrogen or combination estrogen plus progestin therapy should complete the current cycle of therapy, before initiating CombiPatch therapy.
Women often experience withdrawal bleeding at the completion of the cycle. The first day of this bleeding would be an appropriate time to begin CombiPatch therapy.
Therapeutic Regimens
Combination estrogen plus progestin regimens are indicated for women with an intact uterus. Two CombiPatch (estradiol/NETA) transdermal delivery systems are available: 0.05 mg estradiol with 0.14 mg NETA per day (9 cm²) and 0.05 mg estradiol with 0.25 mg NETA per day (16 cm²). The lowest effective dose should be used. For all regimens, women should be reevaluated at 3-to 6-month intervals to determine if changes in hormone therapy or if continued hormone therapy is appropriate.
Continuous Combined Regimen
CombiPatch 0.05 mg estradiol/0.14 mg NETA per day (9 cm²) matrix transdermal system is used for continuous uninterrupted treatment applied twice weekly on the lower abdomen. A new system should be applied to the skin every 3 to 4 days (twice weekly) during a 28-day cycle.
Additionally, a dose of 0.05 mg estradiol/0.25 mg NETA (16 cm² system) is available if a greater progestin dose is desired. Irregular bleeding may occur particularly in the first six months, but generally decreases with time, and often to an amenorrheic state.
Continuous Sequential Regimen
CombiPatch can be applied as a sequential regimen in combination with an estradiol-only transdermal delivery system.
In this treatment regimen, a 0.05 mg per day (nominal delivery rate) estradiol transdermal system (Vivelle-Dot®) is worn for the first 14 days of a 28-day cycle, replacing the system every 3 to 4 days (twice weekly) according to product directions.
For the remaining 14 days of the 28-day cycle, CombiPatch 0.05 mg estradiol/0.14 mg NETA per day (9 cm²) transdermal system should be worn continuously on the lower abdomen. The CombiPatch system should be replaced every 3 to 4 days (twice weekly) during this 14-day period in the 28-day cycle.
Additionally, a dose of 0.05 mg estradiol/0.25 mg NETA (16 cm² system) is available if a greater progestin dose is desired. Women should be advised that monthly withdrawal bleeding often occurs.
Application of the System
Site Selection
CombiPatch should be placed on a smooth (fold-free), clean, dry area of the skin on the lower abdomen. CombiPatch should not be applied to or near the breasts. The area selected should not be oily (which can impair adherence of the system), damaged, or irritated. The waistline should be avoided, since tight clothing may rub the system off or modify drug delivery. The sites of application must be rotated, with an interval of at least one week allowed between applications to the same site.
After opening the pouch, remove 1 side of the protective liner, taking care not to touch the adhesive part of the transdermal delivery system with the fingers. Immediately apply the transdermal delivery system to a smooth (fold-free) area of skin on the lower abdomen. Remove the second side of the protective liner and press the system firmly in place with the hand for at least 10 seconds, making sure there is good contact, especially around the edges.
Care should be taken that the system does not become dislodged during bathing and other activities. If a system should fall off, the same system may be reapplied to another area of the lower abdomen. If necessary, a new transdermal system may be applied, in which case, the original treatment schedule should be continued. Only 1 system should be worn at any 1 time during the 3-to 4-day dosing interval.
Once in place, the transdermal system should not be exposed to the sun for prolonged periods of time.
Removal of the System
Removal of the system should be done carefully and slowly to avoid irritation of the skin. Should any adhesive remain on the skin after removal of the system, allow the area to dry for 15 minutes. Then gently rub the area with an oil-based cream or lotion to remove the adhesive residue.
CombiPatch estradiol/NETA transdermal delivery system is available in:

Storage Conditions
Prior to dispensing to the patient, store refrigerated 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F). After dispensing to the patient, CombiPatch can be stored at room temperature between 20°C to 25°C (66°F to 77°F) for up to 6 months. For the Pharmacist: When CombiPatch is dispensed to the patient, place an expiration date on the label. The date should not exceed either 6 months from the date of sale or the expiration date, whichever comes first.

Welcome to the forum
If you want useful answers a little more info and posting a picture would help. http://www.diychatroom.com/f19/how-a...to-post-12559/
How big is your small building? Whats it sitting on now?
You would be surprised what you can effortlessly move with a few pieces of pipe.
Welcome! But we do need some more info to help you best.
I moved a small shed about 100' with the help of my son's high school football team. I pointed to where I wanted it to go and they just picked it up and carried it there. :thumbsup: Took about 10 minutes and a few pizzas to make it happen.
Carefully. :thumbsup:

A little bit of (sourness + sweetness + spiciness + garlickiness + herbiness + crunchiness + chewiness) = a lot of yumminess
A plate of nem chua (Vietnamese fermented beef)
Nem chua (Vietnamese cured beef) & lá chanh (lemon leaves)
Nem is one of my favorite snacks. Before a trip back to Viet Nam, I usually contacted my uncle ahead of time so he could buy nem that would be ready to eat by the time I land. It's an incredibly addictive food, with its mix of sweetness, sourness, and spiciness and the blend of flavors with rau răm (Vietnamese coriander), garlic and chili pepper.
I have been making a lot of nem chua lately. It's often made with pork, but I actually prefer making it with beef (and hence the title is beef instead of pork). In the latest batch, I wrapped a ball of just mixed meat in
1) half of a lemon leaf and
2) 1-2 plum leaf(ves)
before wrapping it in 7 layers of banana leaves to let the meat ferment over a couple of days.
A pleasant surprise finding was that lemon leaf went incredibly well with nem chua. It really enhanced nem flavors. Plum leaves were too subtle to make a difference, unfortunately.
Anyway, just thought I should share this finding so you can add a little bit of lemon leaf (you don't need a full or half a lemon leaf…a few thin strips will do) to your next bite of nem in addition to the usual rau răm, garlic and chili pepper.

Posted on July 02, 2014 in News
By Sam Hill
USM is one of the nation's most expensive public four-year colleges for in-state students according to a recent report published by the U.S. Department of Education.
USM was ranked 23rd in the public four-year college category with a net price — the amount that students paid after receiving grants and scholarships — of $18,177 a year. The national average net price was reported to be $11,582 annually.
The report was based on data submitted from the 2011-'12 academic year, which Assistant Director of Public Affairs Judie O'Malley said contained erroneous data submitted by a former employee.
O'Malley said officials made attempts to alter the data they had submitted after the errors were discovered, but that the deadline to make changes to their submissions had passed.
"It's unfortunate this report has been released using that year," said O'Malley, noting that the university submits their reports to the Department of Education annually. "The feds have all these numbers, but they've chosen '11-'12."
O'Malley said that the data, which is now three years old, does not reflect efforts that have been made recently to keep costs down.
"USM has taken steps to make itself more affordable for students," said O'Malley, noting that the report would not have reflected the tuition-freeze or reduction in student-housing costs made in the spring of 2012.
During the 2011-2012 year, the University of Maine's flagship campus at Orono was listed as having a net price of $15,299, lower than the smaller campuses at USM.
O'Malley chalked up the difference between Maine universities to the endowments and scholarships available at UMO in comparison to USM. She also said USM is primarily a commuter school and that commuter students rarely have the connections that resident students do, which affects donation rates from alumni.

A Guide to the Hidden Wisdom of Kabbala HTML version
Chapter 6: How To Study
Part I
Several hundred years ago, it was impossible to find Kabbalah books or
books on this subject. Kabbalah was transmitted solely from one Kabbalist to
another, never reaching the ordinary person. Today, the situation is
reversed. There is a desire to circulate the material among all, and to call on
everyone to participate in its study. When studying these books, the desire
for spirituality grows, whereby the light surrounding us, the real world hidden
from us, starts to reflect on those people who wish to be closer to the special
charm of spirituality, and they start to desire it even more.
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 6
Kabbalists prohibited the study of Kabbalah by people who had not been
prepared for it, unless they did so under special circumstances. They treated
their students cautiously to ensure they studied in the proper manner. They
limited students by certain criteria.
Baal HaSulam describes these reasons at the beginning of his Introduction to
the Study of the Ten Sefirot. However, if we understand these restrictions as
conditions for the proper comprehension of Kabbalah, we will see that they
are intended as a way to prevent students from deviating from the correct
Part II
How to Read
What has changed is that we now have more of a language, better conditions
and a stronger determination to study Kabbalah. Because souls feel the need
to study Kabbalah, Kabbalists such as Baal HaSulam have written
commentaries that enable us to study free of errors. Everyone can now learn
Kabbalah through his books.
To study Kabbalah in the proper way, it is recommended that the student
focus solely on the writings of the Ari, Baal HaSulam and Rabash in their
original versions.
The primary objective of Kabbalah is to achieve spirituality.
Only one thing is necessary – proper instruction. If a person studies
Kabbalah in the right way, he progresses without forcing himself. There can
be no coercion in spirituality.

Efforts toward peace between the United States and North Korea are inching closer to reality, in large part because of recent talks held at the University of Georgia.
At least, that's according to Han Park, the UGA professor who moderated last month's three-day, closed-door forum, where officials from both countries shared their recipes for a mutually beneficial accord.
But another participant, the non-profit Center for International Policy director Selig Harrison, said while the talks were beneficial, an agreement won't be reached until the United States has new leadership.
Nearly a decade after the Clinton administration reached a 1994 agreement freezing a North Korean plutonium facility, the U.S.-North Korea relationship has deteriorated. But in late 2002, North Korea acknowledged it had begun to enrich uranium, violating the pact it made to end its nuclear weapons program.
Park said the Athens talks fostered frank discussion, especially crucial to North Korean officials, who typically spout nationalistic rhetoric rather than push for an agreement.
Since the conference ended Nov. 13, Park said he's been visited by South Korean reporters, and Japanese journalists will interview him later this week.
And although he still considers North Korea a nuclear threat, Park, director of UGA's Center for the Study of Global Issues, said the conference's impact already has been felt.
''We are better off today because of it,'' he said. ''We have a greater mutual understanding, especially from the North Korean point of view.''
Most significantly, Park said, North Koreans learned for the first time there are several paths to peace, such as a presidential assurance of non-aggression.
Participants in the Athens talks included JO Sung Ju, head of North Korea's Institute of Peace and HAN Song-Ryol, the country's United Nations ambassador. The mood was gentlemanly, but stern, Park said - headstrong negotiations conducted in a civilized manner.
American officials made it abundantly clear, Park said: They were more inclined to work with North Korea if officials there agree to allow the United States or other countries to inspect their facilities.
North Koreans, of course, had demands of their own.
''They were accepting to the reality that the U.S. is a superpower with nuclear weapons, and they are prepared to give up their (nuclear weapons) programs and negotiate for some tangible compensatory measures,'' Park said.
Those measures, according to Park, include U.S.-furnished economic aid and security assurance, as well as North Korea's removal from President Bush's post-Sept. 11 ''axis of evil'' - a list of countries Bush said are a threat to the United States, a list that includes Iran and Iraq.
Bush, however, repeatedly has said he will not give in to what he called ''blackmail.''
And while some U.S. officials contend North Korea would prefer to negotiate with a Democrat president, Park said, American participants at the Athens meeting urged North Korean counterparts to strike a deal sooner.
''There's no guarantee a Democratic president is more inclined to make peace with North Korea,'' Park said.
Harrison, of the peace advocate Center for International Policy, disagreed. While North Korea is convinced the United States will not negotiate with the republic's current leader, Kim Jong Il, Harrison said peace isn't possible while Bush is in office.
''From their point of view, what we heard is very clear,'' Harrison said. ''They're willing to give up their nuclear weapons if the U.S. gives up its policy of a North Korean regime change.''

Here's where I'm at with my 383 build
Alright so after some deliberation (and price checking) I've come to the conclusion that it would be almost stupid of me not to build a 383 stroker out of my 355 I have now. The cost is just so low for the extra cubes you get with almost no work required.
This combination is very much still a work in progress, the actual engine isn't going to get built until late this year, so I have plenty of time to change my list.
The motor will be going into my 3400lb '68 chevelle malibu sedan with my built 700R4 and 3.73 posi.
So, here we have it: NEW LIST
BUILD 383c.i. stroker:
Brodix IK200 (Iron Killer) Aluminum Heads 200cc 70cc 2.02/1.60 CnC chambers $1229
Edelbrock Performer RPM Aluminum intake = $159.95
Speed Pro Hypereutectic flattop 5cc Pistons (set of 8) = $277.52
Sealed Power File-Fit Plasma-Moly Rings (set of 8) = $102.95
Lunati Voodoo 276/284º hydraulic flat tappet camshaft + Lifter kit = $189.95
Scat 9000 Cast Pro Comp 3.75" stroke crankshaft 2 piece rear seal = $231.99
TCI 400 Flex Plate = $70 TCI-399373 summitracing.com
Fluidampr Harmonic Damper 400c.i. external balance = $230.95
ARP Flex plate bolts = $12.95
Fel-Pro Performance Gasket 0.039" compressed thickness = $37.95
Hooker Super Comp headers 1 3/4" full length = $399.95
TCI Breakaway 2400 stall/lockup converter = $399.88
Quench 0.039", 0 deck height, 10.36:1 CR; 8.37:1 DCR, 4.166 gasket bore. To be run on 91 Octane.
Parts I already have: GM 5.7" rods, GM HEI, Comp double roller timing chain, edelbrock chrome water pump, 1500 stall/lockup converter, 355 block, Crane 1.52:1 Roller rockers, 750CFM Q-jet, Tri-Y 1 5/8" headers (with clearance dings).
I'm planning on using my Q-jet carb/GM HEI/waterpump/rockers/pushrods from my current motor as it all works perfectly. I am planning on buying a new stall /lockup converter as this one won't cut the mustard for this build.
With this combo DD gave me 436HP @ 5500RPM / 464lb-ft of Torque @ 4000RPM and over 400lb-ft of torque between 2000-5500RPM with over 400HP up to 6500RPM.
I'm also getting the Brodix heads for a good deal so they look real attractive at the moment, plus they're not half bad either.
So that's it, my streetable 383 engine, weekend driver that I can take to the coast and back (200mi) without worrying about crap breaking. As always I welcome comments/critiques with open arms, I know this combo isn't perfect and it probably will never be. Desktop dyno gave me some pretty solid numbers though and I think it'll perform well. I plan on revving this to 6400RPM or there abouts.

Sure has been a lot of people eyeballing this, no comments yet huh.
Have you priced out any 6" con rods? and pistons to match?
Been told a few times that 6" is only way to go with 383. takes a load off the thrust side. Thats the route I'm taking for my 383 build.
ck out Doug Herbert for a solid roller cam and lifters, the price will be close to the lunati solid flat tappets , roller would be my recomendation
we are also building a 388 with 6 inch rods and afr 210s
I haven't priced out some 6" rods. I've been told that it doesn't really matter which rod you go with, no power increase at all. I have heard about the 6" rods lessening the side load or what not of the piston. The KB pistons I have picked, would they work with 6" rods?
I was just going to use my 5.7" rods because I don't think it's essential to have 6" rods, just costs more. I'm on a budget, I have priced a roller setup and it's darn expensive, a lot more expensive then a flat tappet. I don't know what "a lot more expensive" means to you but to me a roller cam + lifters etc.. runs $400-500 and I'm just not going to spend that, I don't have it. A flat tappet makes plenty of power.
I'll look into the 6" rods though, I had thought up until this point that they were not necessary.
383 build
Don't worry about the rods, too many people worry about that non-issue waaayyy too much, independent testing has shown that most times there is no power difference on the dyno; and wear differences are going to take 75,000 miles to show up. I would re-think the Eagle crank though, they seem to have pretty poor finish and quality control. Scat is where my money goes. Is this a daily driver or more of a nice-weather toy? If it's a hot rod-what about a flat tappet solid!?! Makes a bunch more power than a hydro stick, and the maintenance isn't like it was in the sixties, everything is made of better materials and to better tolerances today-I only need to adjust mine twice a summer( 6000 miles and 10+ trips to the drags). My only other suggestion on solids is spend the extra bucks and get the ones with the lazered oil hole in the face-they are worth it.

I on the other hand am almost completely lost in the mechanical side of things. The hydraulic are the ultimate in reliability and ease of maintenance, on the cheap of course
If was more power hungry I'd probably throw in a solid cam, but the whole world changes to me. They're more for racing (I think) and such with their lifter adjustments and radical LSAs. I know there are guys that successfully run them with no trouble at all but I don't think I'm ready for one myself.
I just want to enjoy my zero lash setting without worrying about getting that lifter pre-load just right. It's probably not all that hard but solid cams don't excite me at the moment. I'm familiar with hydraulic flat tappets so I'd like to keep to those for this build
Though I wouldn't mind trying out a mechanical tappet camshaft in the future to compare with flat tappet cams.
I doubt it'll take 75k to show up when your revving 6500 RPM. But thats just a thought/opinion.
And the solid cam seems like a better choice for that RPM range. I know you wont be constantly at 6500, but when you are....
re: Here's where I'm At
Consider 1.6 rockers with the hyd. flat tappet cam. More lift for those heads and a couple degrees duration. Also, would consider advancing the cam 4 degrees if it is a 110 or 112. For a street car you will be adding good torque on the bottom (where you want it on a street car). First -find out if Lunati builds in any advance on their cams. I have a 383 and love the torque. Installing a solid roller next week, new springs, stud girdle, blah,blah,blah.
Good Luck!
Now if this were my car I would step down some on the cam duration- perhaps the 268 VooDoo... I'm building a 383 for my TA this July and plan on running a 262 VooDoo with a 700R4 and 4.10s... I just like to replace tires I guess Seriously though, your cam will work and may get you an extra tenth or two at the dreag strip, but on the street its a little big in my opinion... Though I have used bigger cams in smaller engines on the street successfully...
If 1/4 miles are your thing your cam looks good, if stoplights are more your deal I'd step down a size on the cam... and ask them to tighten the LSA a degree or two.
Well I wouldn't mind using the "268" Voodoo cam but my only concern was my dynamic compression ratio was on the edge of what I've been told is safe for street engines: 8.61:1. I've been told 7.5:1-8.5:1 was safe for 91 octane fuel on the street, anything higher would risk detonation.
So by stepping up on the cam it bleeds off more cylinder pressure and puts the DCR at 8.37:1 which is a bit better.
This is all been based off what I've been told. If I've been mislead and can run that DCR with the 268 then I'll gladly do it I just don't want detonation
Check the list out, I've modified it
I would rethink using the fluid damper, if you research them on the web and at this forum you will find out that they aren't really the part to use. As a matter of fact Scat will NOT warrantee their cranks if you use a fluid damper. Many people have had broken cranks attributed to the use of a fluid damper, seems the fluid inside has a short life. You will not find a single nascar team using one, even the team for the company(Roush racing) that did the original testing for Fluidamper. Most crank companies recommend a good elastomer balancer for use with their products. and most seem to agree that ATI makes the very best balancer(but it ain't exactly cheap)
Makes sense they don't last though.
I am not here to debate your Post, but the question that comes into my mind is that if Fluidamper is a problem parts, why does GM offer them through Performance Parts (with a GM Logo on them?)

When removing the attribute Orderless of the function Times
(ClearAttributes[Times, Orderless]), this attribute disappears (which is
its normal behaviour;-), but reappears(!) after a function-call of a funtion I
defined. I checked this function thouroughly, but I cannot find any relation
to Times.
Does anyone have experienced this before, or does anyone have
a suggestion about finding out what exactly the problem is?
Thanks in advance,

We investigate material models for a polymeric scaffold used for bone. The material was made by co-extruding poly(¿¿-caprolactone) (PCL), a biodegradable polyester, and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). The water soluble PEO was removed resulting in a porous scaffold. The stress-strain curve in compression was fit with a phenomenological model in hyperbolic form. This material model will be useful for designers for quasi-static analysis as it provides a simple form that can easily be used in finite element models. The ASTM D-1621 standard recommends using a secant modulus based on 10 % strain. The resulting modulus has a smaller scatter in its value compared to the coefficients of the hyperbolic model, and it is therefore easier to compare material processing differences and ensure quality of the scaffold. A prediction of the initial elastic modulus was constructed from images of the microstructure. Each pixel of the micrographs was represented with a brick finite element and assigned the Young¿¿s modulus of bulk PCL or a value of 0 for a pore. A compressive strain was imposed on the model and the resulting stresses were calculated. The elastic constants of the scaffold were then computed using Hooke¿¿s law for a linear-elastic isotropic material. The model was able to predict the small strain Young¿¿s modulus measured in the experiments to within one standard deviation. Thus, by knowing the microstructure of the scaffold, its bulk properties can be predicted from the material properties of the constituents.

So, here I am drinking the rum I got as a Christmas present, and that old feeling is creeping up on me. Girls. I can't deal with them. How do you get one? I don't know. Maybe thinking about them as possessions is part of my problem...or maybe it's a solution. "The only chance for happiness that any of us have is by belonging to someone." - Breakfast at Tiffany's
I never grew out of my fear of girls. Then, I joined the Marine Corps, and I learned that women will pretend to like you if you give them green pieces of paper. Drinking automatically brings out the "I want a pretty girl to pretend to like me" part of me to the surface. I'm writing this blog as a coping mechanism, but I think I'm still going to visit the strip club later and spend too much money in exchange for fake love.
Let this be a lesson to you, kids. Don't be like your Uncle Sam. Don't solicit affection from women. I mean, you could buy yourself a whole bunch of cool geek toys for the money you would have mistakenly spent on girls with daddy issues, because you have mommy issues.
So in conclusion, don't try this at home kids. I'm a professional asshat, so see you at the club.

Grace graduated Robert H. Goddard High on May 13, 1969. She was well known for her many years in the banking industry, and was also an incredible gardener. She was loved by many and touched many other lives. She was also abundantly loved by her family.
"Our Beloved Grace"
How do we begin to express how we feel, when the pain that we feel is all too real, where there's truth to be told, that God takes his best, he's called you home to get your rest, he saw you were weary and your body was weak, so he called out your name, and said 'Grace come to me.' Your hurt, and your pain has all gone away, give glory to God, for you see a new day, for I am renewed, and have been set free. So laugh and love for this is my wish, remember me always, with a hug and a kiss.
We love you today, tomorrow, and always.
"Our beloved Grace"
Forever and Always
Your niece,
Bernadette Castrillo

Urgent + Emergency Care
Two Levels of Care
Urgent + Emergency care is located at Aurora BayCare Medical Center on the east side of Green Bay.
Aurora BayCare Medical Center is a Level II trauma center and the first U.S. hospital to be verified as an Emergency Center of Excellence.
Here's what sets us apart:
Urgent + Emergency
Aurora BayCare is Green Bay's only hospital offering both urgent care and emergency care services in one convenient location. So no matter if it's an emergency, or just a matter of urgency, Aurora BayCare Medical Center is ready with the level of care you need. Because we offer both emergency and urgent care, you'll never pay for more care than you need – just the level of care that's right for you.
Patients with the following symptoms generally qualify for an urgent care visit:
- Cough, congestion and sinus problems
- Throat pain
- Pink eye, minor eye problems
- Earache
- Toothache
- Mild fever
- Rash and minor burns
- Bug bites and minor animal bites
- Bladder infection
- Sprains
Urgent Care hours:
Monday – Friday 8 a.m. – 8 p.m.
Saturday and Sunday 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
No urgent care on major holidays.
The Waiting-Less Room
Aurora BayCare's wait times are 2x faster than the national average – so you get better, faster. Patients see an emergency physician in an average of 15 minutes after arrival, far lower than the national average of 30 minutes.
Leaders in Door-to-Balloon Time
When you're having a heart attack, minutes matter. Aurora BayCare's STEMI program leads the region in door-to-balloon time; our fastest being 13 minutes from the time a patient enters our ER to when we've opened their blocked arteries.
Superior On Call Surgical Care
Aurora BayCare exceeds industry benchmarks for on-call surgical coverage. We have neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, plastic surgeons, eye surgeons, and hand surgeons on call, 24/7. Without adequate on-call surgical coverage, emergency patients may experience permanent injuries that could have otherwise been avoided.
Open 24-7 365
Our emergency room is always open and ready. At Aurora BayCare we understand that emergencies don't just happen during regular business hours.
If an emergency could be life-threatening, dial 911.
Our location: 2845 Greenbrier Road, Green Bay
