Heather D'Aoust - 15 Year Old Girl Charged With Savagely Beating Adoptive Mother With A Claw Hammer Will Stand Trial For Murder
Heather D'Aoust's MySpace Profile
San Diego, California (The Weekly Vice) -- Heather D'Aoust, a 15-year-old girl who was arrested after striking her adoptive mother at least 15 times with a claw hammer, was ordered Wednesday to stand trial for murder.
In the morning hours of May 25, 2007, James D'Aoust and his oldest daughter awoke to the muffled screams of his wife, 56-year-old Rebecca D'Aoust. When he ran downstairs to investigate, he found his wife beaten savagely in the head with a claw hammer. Rebecca, who was a school teacher and counselor, died the next day.
Heather D'Aoust, who was 14-years-old at the time, was detained and booked into Juvenile Hall while authorities tried to untangle the motives behind the brutal attack.
In the flurry of court hearings in late May, it was determined that Heather D'Aoust would be charged as an adult, however it was yet to be determined if she would be charged with murder. That question has now been answered.
Monday and Tuesday, the court began to hear parts of the prosecutor's case, which laid out a case for premeditated murder. According to prosecutors, Heather allegedly left a trail of evidence that pointed to what she was about to do.
Prosecutors say Heather typed notes into her cell phone and computer before the killing that allegedly spelled out her plans.
FBI Special Agent Tim Hamon testified that he had accessed the notes which he read aloud in court. They stated: "Wake up. Kill with hammer as they wake up. Hide bodies in back seat of van. Drive to church. Leave them with Christian-hating note, steal money. Bike home. Go to sleep again."
According to Hamon, the note ended with a description of what she would do next. "Report to authorities, act panicked and explain I waited a day to see if they returned."
Patrick Lim, a criminal investigator who examined a computer the teen used, was able to access various web pages that had been browsed the night before the killing.
One page accessed that night was titled "BigDaddyBlog, Merk's Top Ten murder weapons", according to Lim. A hammer was the site's #6 top choice.
The user then allegedly entered various search phrases into Google that included "lethal household things", "parents murdered by child" and "children who kill", Lim told the court.
During the preliminary hearing, the court heard several hours of testimony from Heather's father, FBI agents and forensics experts that presented a long history of problems, that seemingly became worse in the last year before the murder.
Suicide threats and complaints of feeling suicidal were abbreviated with outbursts of anger towards her mother. Outbursts that even rattled Heather's friends.
Heather's lawyer presented a case of mental illness. That claim was echoed by Heather's father, who stated his belief that there are two Heathers. A peaceful Heather and a "Heather Two".
Apparently it was Heather Two who woke up that morning.
The Weekly Vice Opinion:
This case is not a new case, however few details were released shortly after it happened because the suspect is a minor and it wasn't known whether or not she would be tried as an adult. Basically, this case is just now beginning to unfold.
Those who are interested in following this case might want to check in on Wednesday as the trial date for this case is scheduled to be determined Tuesday of this next week.

That's sad. To think that woman lived for a whole day after being beaten like that.

Hi Mr. Vice, any new information on this particular case, and update of some kind would really be appriciated, this seems to be the only site I have seen this particular case on, and since she is a 'juvenile' and probably mentally ill, I'd like to know if she will be tried or not, thankyou

ASK TONY: We put £300 into a Barclays account 40 years ago but they are refusing to pay out - even though we have the proof
My 92-year-old mother put £300 into an account with Barclays 40 years ago. We have the passbook, but they are refusing to pay out.
After their checks over a year, they have offered a paltry £100 to clear up the complaint. It has cost me £200 to instruct a solicitor to try to obtain £500 from them.
G.T., Aberdare.
Old passbook accounts are a perennially thorny issue. They can often turn up in drawers and, if we are honest with ourselves, we may not have a clue what we did with the money in the meantime.
The problem is that they show a snapshot in time.
It is entirely possible that money listed there was withdrawn without the passbook, or transferred into another account.
Proof: My 92-year-old mother put £300 into an account with Barclays 40 years ago, we have the passbook, but they are refusing to pay out
In your case, you felt strongly enough to employ a solicitor.
I asked Barclays to have another look at the case and I'm afraid the balance of probability suggests the account was closed or the money transferred.
Why? Well, your mother has not changed address or name since opening the account in 1973. She has also stayed with the same branch throughout that period. This makes it extremely unlikely that the money would just vanish.
Barclays computerised its branches in the late Seventies and early Eighties. It is highly likely that, during this period, the money was moved to a different account and subsequently spent.
Having said that, the bank is prepared to meet you more than half way. It has agreed to offer the original £300 plus the £200 you have spent on a solicitor, making a total payment of £500.
Of course, this does not include interest — which on a standard high street account such as this might have increased the sum to almost £3,500 if she was not a taxpayer (but rather less for a taxpayer), according to one bank's calculations. Interest rates were a lot higher in the Seventies and Eighties than they are today!
But Barclays staff genuinely believe that the money has been spent and the account does not exist.
In fact, it has only agreed to make an exception and increase the payment because your mother has been such a loyal and long-standing customer.
I think it's a very good offer and you should accept it. The alternative is a stressful legal fight which may benefit only your solicitor.
You may choose to ignore my advice but, unlike your solicitor's, at least it has cost you nothing.
When will I get my TSB rebate?
On March 28 this year, I made the final payment on my TSB mortgage. Shortly afterwards, I was told that I had paid too much and would be receiving a rebate of £19.82 and that my deeds would follow in six weeks.
Since then, I have phoned weekly. On one occasion, I was told the rebate had been transferred to my account on April 15. At their request, I sent a copy of my bank statement to prove it had not.
I am at a loss as to what to do, and I still do not have my deeds.
B. E., Kenilworth.
TSB has now resolved the problem. It seems that the overpayment was set up to go back to your bank account on April 14. But, because there was no live direct debit instruction the payment was not returned.
It remained on TSB's ledger, before being returned to the mortgage account on June 24, which was why there was some confusion. A spokesman says: 'This is not the level of service we look to provide, and we have apologised to your reader.'
The overpayment has been returned to you with an additional £50 for inconvenience.
Your deeds will be sent imminently and TSB has provided you with a direct number and contact in case you have any further difficulties.
When will things with British Gas get sorted out?
In November 2013, I began getting gas from British Gas, having previously used oil. At the end of April, I received an estimated bill of £886.20 (including electricity), based on an estimated gas consumption of 1,480 units.
My true consumption was 589 units. Despite twice sending my actual meter readings, and having made several phone calls to its customer services department, I am still receiving estimated readings.
I have cancelled my direct debit and want to move to EDF. Of course, this cannot happen until matters with British Gas are settled.
J. D., Darlington.
On May 15, British Gas wrote apologising that you had been forced to make repeated contact.
A representative told you that an error on your account meant it could not take the estimated bill and readings off the system.
You were told the matter had been escalated to its specialist team, though there was no 'specific timescale for how long this will take'.
Eventually, in sheer frustration, you wrote to me.
Surprise, surprise! British Gas then managed to resolve the issue, send you a proper bill and allow your immediate transfer to EDF.
A spokesman confirmed that a technical fault meant they could not delete the estimated bill and create the correct one. In the end, it turned out you owed £4.97 once your direct debits had been taken into account.
British Gas has apologised for the inconvenience, and paid you a rather stingy £20 compensation.
Energy tariff prices are in a constant merry-go-round with suppliers battling to pinch customers - you - from each other.
consumers can take advantage of this by doing exactly that - moving
deals every six months to a year to ensure they are on THE cheapest
deal. Even moving every other year will save you significant amounts.
Suppliers offer their cheapest rates via online tariffs so if you're ready to switch, it will certainly pay to do so.
you are one of the millions of people who have NEVER switched (i.e.
stuck with your original supplier), then you will DEFINITELY save a big
chunk of cash, possibly as much as £300 a year.

will depend where you live.

Straight to the point
I have put money into an easy-access cash Isa with HSBC and Nationwide in previous tax years. Can I split this year's Isa allowance between them?
S. R., by email.
No — you can put this year's allowance into one or the other, but not both. Alternatively, you can pick a different provider.
The basic rule is that, in the current tax year, all your cash Isa contributions must be with one provider. But you can split money in the previous year's cash Isas between as many providers as you want.
I took out a loan in 2000. After checking my statements, I've found they included payment protection insurance and suspect it was mis-sold. Can I claim for compensation?
M. S. via email.
Yes. There are no time limits on putting in a claim. However, if your bank refuses it, you have six months to take it to the Financial Ombudsman.
As a rule it's easier to make a complaint if you were mis-sold or still repaying PPI within the past six years. But if you've still got old paperwork, your chances are good.
I read in Money Mail that the state pension age will rise to 66 by 2020. I am a man born in December 1954 and will be 65 in December 2019. I've been told I won't be able to take my state pension till December 2020. Why?
G. S. Fife.
The Government is shifting the state pension age for both men and women to match with life expectancy.
Women's state pension age is already rising and will hit 65 in 2018 to meet men's. Then both pension age for both sexes will move together to reach 66 in 2020.
Those like you born between October 6, 1954, and April 5, 1960, will reach the new state pension age on their 66th birthday.
When writing about banks, why does Money Mail often also refer to Nationwide Building Society?
C. A., Exeter.
Money Mail editor James Coney says: 'Nationwide is one of the few building societies which offers many of the same services and products as banks, such as mortgages, current accounts and credit cards.
Because of its many similarities, therefore, it is often necessary to mention it when writing about banking industry issues.'

Clean up an AutoCAD template and reduce filesize of Dynamic Blocks
This project received 3 bids from talented freelancers with an average bid price of $138 AUD.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$50 - $300 AUD
Total Bids3
Project Description
I have designed a number of dynamic blocks to allow the business to auto takeoff workshop orders.
Being fairly new to this aspect of AutoCAD I need to make sure I have done this in the best way possible and that the file sizes are not too big. For some reason the blocks I have created seem to be very large in size which may be due to viability states?
The blocks need to be inserted hundreds of times throughout a drawing and currently this is blowing some files out to over 20MB.
I'm hoping an experienced AutoCAD user can review and make the template work much more efficiently. Maybe there is a simple solution or perhaps a rework is necessary to make it functional.
The blocks are attached but I may need to explain functionality and share other files with the winning bidder. Applicants need a sound knowledge of dynamic blocks and depending on your experience there may be opportunities for ongoing work.

Radio: ESPN2 790 AM • Live Stats: gobulldogs.com
Series Record: Tied 4-4 • Last Meeting: 12/29/10 - USC 82, FS 78
Opening Tip
The Fresno State Bulldogs host the USC Trojans of the Pac-12 conference Wednesday evening at 7 p.m. at the Save Mart Center.
It is the 'Dogs third matchup against a Pac-12 conference opponent of four scheduled matchups this season. Fresno State will square off against Oregon Dec. 16 in its final bout against the conference.
For Fresno State, Wednesday's contest is its fourth game since last Wednesday when the 'Dogs traveled to Pacific. Since falling in Stockton, the Bulldogs returned to the Save Mart Center, winning its matchups against Washington State and UT Arlington.
In the 'Dogs 82-49 win against Washington State, Ki-Ki Moore poured in 27 points against her former team, one-point shy of her career-high. She also chipped in seven assists and six steals in the MVP effort.
On Sunday against UT Arlington, Fresno State saw points evenly distributed in its 70-45 win against UTA as all 10 Bulldogs suited up contributed to the point total. Robin Draper scored in double-figures for the second consecutive game and Taylor Thompson set a career-high in steals with seven in the win.
Over the weekend the 'Dogs averaged 76 points in its two victories and continues to be undefeated at home (4-0). Fresno State extended its home winning streak to 15, having last lost at the Save Mart Center to No. 5 Stanford on Dec. 4, 2011. The streak ranks as the ninth-longest in the NCAA.
Fresno State is in the midst of a four-game home stand, which wraps up Saturday versus Cal State Northridge.
► Fresno State is 4-4 all-time against USC having won the first four and dropped the past four. This is the first meeting between the two schools since Dec. 29, 2010 when the Bulldogs lost 82-78 at the Save Mart Center.
► This game is Fresno State's third contest out of four matchups against schools from the Pac-12 conference. The 'Dogs are 1-1 this season, having lost to now No. 1 Stanford, 72-61, and defeating Washington State 82-59.
► Junior guard Ki-Ki Moore led the 'Dogs to a 2-1 record last week while averaging 17 points and six rebounds with 10 assists and 11 steals. She was named Fresno State's student athlete of the week.
► Fresno State has won 15-straight games at the Save Mart Center dating back to Dec. 4, 2011, it ranks as the ninth longest streak in the NCAA.
Fresno State vs. USC - The Series
The Bulldogs and Trojans all-time series is tied at four dating back to 1971. Fresno State won the first four matchups between the two schools but have dropped the last four. The two last squared off Dec. 29, 2010 when the 'Dogs fell 82-78 at the Save Mart Center.
'Dogs Complete Weekend Sweep
After defeating Washington State 82-59 on Friday the 'Dogs returned to the Save Mart Center Sunday to wrap up the weekend with a 70-45 win over UT Arlington. Fresno State scored the games first basket and never trailed in the game. They led by as many as 29 in the victory. Fresno State's defense recored 19 steals and 30 turnovers overall in game and nettted 27 points off those turnovers. The 'Dogs closed the first half with an 11-2 run in the final four minutes and extended its run out of the break with eight more unanswered points. The Mavericks scored its first basket of the second half almost five minutes after the break to end the run. At that point the 'Dogs had built its lead to 41-19 and cruised to its fourth victory of the season.
Ki-Ki Moore Named Student Athlete of the Week
Ki-Ki Moore led Fresno State to a 2-1 record last week which included a win over Pac-12 school Washington State. She averaged 17.0 points and six rebound in the three games and had 10 assists and 11 steals. In the loss at Pacific, Moore paced the Bulldogs with 20 points and she had seven rebounds. Then two days later, she and the Bulldogs bounced back from the road loss to hammer Washington State at home. Moore scored 27 points on 11-of-20 shooting against her former team, whom she played for as a freshman in 2009-10 before transferring to Fresno State. Her 27 points was one shy of her career-high and she had six rebounds, seven assists and six steals her supurb performance. What made that Washington State game more impressive is the fact she nearly didn't play. Moore was battling the stomach flu and it wasn't until the final minutes prior to the game that it was decided she would play. In the win over UT Arlington, Moore had four points and five rebounds in limited action, as the Bulldogs beat the Mavericks by 25 points
Looking to Find Their Range
The Bulldogs shot 13-of-41 (.317) from behind the arc in its two games over the weekend. Sharp shooting from Robin Draper, who was 7-of-17 (.412), from 3-point land in the two weekend games sparked the 'Dogs off the bench from past its recent slump. Fresno State was 9-for-46 (.196) from 3-point land in its two games prior to the weekend, including going just 2-for-17 behind the arch in Wednesday's loss at Pacific. Last season, Fresno State hit a program record 332 3-pointers and averaged just under 10 3-pointers per game. Last year, Rosie Moult led the WAC in 3-pointers made with 92, which ranks No. 4 in program single-season history, and was ninth in the country in three's per game with 2.75.
Taylor Thompson Steals the Show
Through six games this season Taylor Thompson is averaging 4.5 steals per game which ties her for second in the NCAA with Mountain West counterpart Amy Kame of San Diego State. Thompson set a career-high in steals with seven on Sunday versus UT Arlington. She is on pace to shatter her career season-best of 77 with 27 steals through six games.
Moore Hits 1,000 Career Points
With her 20-point game at Pacific on Wednesday, junior guard Ki-Ki Moore surpassed the 1,000-point plateau for her career. She scored 361 points as a freshman at Washington State, the team she now faces Friday, in the 2009-10 season. Then last year, she led the Bulldogs in scoring with 571 points. For her Bulldog career, she is at 671 points and at the rate she is going - as she has scored in double figures in all four games this season - it appears she'll hit the 1,000-point mark for her Bulldog career by year's-end. She would become the 19th Bulldog and second on the current roster to score over 1,000 points at Fresno State. Senior guard Rosie Moult surpassed 1,000 career points last season and she currently has 1,094 points in her career.
Strong on the Boards
Fresno State is out-rebounding its opponents by an average of seven boards a game this season and has won the rebounding battle in five games and was tied once this year. The Bulldogs are averaging 18 offensive rebounds per game, which has led to an average of 12 second-chance points per game. Four Bulldogs are averging just over six rebounds per game. Jacinta Vandenberg leads the team with 6.3 rebounds per game while Alex Sheedy (6.2 rpg) Ki-Ki Moore (6.0 rpg) and Rosie Moult (6.0rpg) round out the list.

Successful Selling through Staging your home by Home
Transformations by Terri
We know it is challenging to sell your home in today's market.
Buyers these days are cautious and very discriminating. They are in no rush
to make a decision with the large inventory of homes for sale. But we can
help. Statistics show that one of the easiest ways to get the best results in
the process of selling your home is through home staging; an interior
decorating technique for making the most of your home's attributes. Home staging is one of the hottest trends
in home selling and gives the seller an advantage over non-staged homes. In today's competitive market it is
essential for sellers to use every tool available to be competitive. Sellers need to make their homes "stand
out" from other comparables.
Transformations by Terri can help:
We offer a service of home staging and redesign. We can transform your house by making it
more appealing to a potential buyer. The current data clearly shows home
staging has been known to boost home sales prices, as well as shorten the
time on the market. In fact new homebuilders
have been using this technique for years by showing off features with
furnishings in their model homes.
Before you list your
home for sale:
We all know how important it is to de-clutter and make
your home sparkle before putting your home on the market. Repairs and maintenance such as fixing
leaky sinks, and repairing cracks in the walls are essential. It is
important not to forget curb appeal by making sure the outside looks neat
and inviting. If needed we can help coordinate people to help with these
efforts also.
Getting Started:
Our initial consultation will consist of walking through
your home room to room. There will be a standard consultation fee. We will
develop a plan within your budget to transform your property into a home
that will appeal to the majority of buyers.
Combining our marketing, real estate and design knowledge you will
learn new perspectives on what buyers are looking for and what gets them
motivated to buy. How your home is
furnished and the traffic flow gives a direct message to potential buyers. They
typically consider very quickly if the home is a contender or not. Don't forget buyers will be comparing
your home to the others in your area and will be able to assess its value
by doing so.
It will depend on your choice and budget on how much or
how little we do. If you need help
with cleaning and organizing before the staging we can help with that
By positioning your furniture and giving decorative
touches, your home will be more appealing to even the most discriminating
buyer. On many occasions repurposing furniture and accessories will be part
of the solution. Home
transformations by Terri will help make your home unforgettable beginning
at the curb and will continue throughout your house.
*Paint: We can
help with color choices that will appeal to a wide base of homebuyers.

10 Cooking Tips to Make Your Favorite Foods Healthier (Page 2)
1. Make creamy dishes without the cream
Creamy sauces like those in fettuccine alfredo or homemade macaroni and cheese are often loaded with butter, heavy cream and/or cheese. We ditch heavy cream and make velvety sauces with low-fat milk that's thickened with flour. To make your own cream substitute: Combine 1 cup low-fat milk with 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour; whisk over medium heat until bubbling and thick. Cup for cup, thickened low-fat milk saves more than 680 calories and 53 grams saturated fat vs. heavy cream! For creamy salads, such as potato salads, opt for low-fat mayonnaise and/or reduced-fat sour cream; a blend of the two tastes great. One tablespoon regular mayo has 90 calories and 10 grams fat vs. 15 calories and 1 gram fat in low-fat mayo.

TV infomercials can sell everything from hair pieces to knives, so the big question is, why has it taken so long for them to move online? Ball home canning products produced five online infomercial/flash sale events last year, and it said it will double live online sales events in 2013.
Jarden Home Brands, a 20-year-old company that holds the license to sell Ball Canning Products in the US, used the Your Brandlive online video platform for flash sales events that combine live video with buy-now ecommerce functions.
Chris Carlisle, senior director of marketing for Jarden Home Brands, says the company's research showed that first person word-of-mouth demonstrated the highest recall and purchase influence of all communication tactics. But the company needed a more efficient way to use its brand advocates to reach larger numbers of consumers more often.
A lot of the old-school kitchen tradition wasn't being passed down, the company found, and consumers associated canning with hours of work and dicey results.
"Confidence is built in groups; it's created when you do things with friends," says Chris Carlisle, vice president of marketing for Jarden Home Brands. "If they can hear somebody talking about it, they are far more likely to internalize that confidence. We were looking for a cost-effective way to create that first-person communication at a more scalable level."
Ball first did a Your Brandlive event for its Facebook followers, following it with a product demo with sister company FoodSaver. Bigger events followed: Can It Forward Day in July and a Cyber Monday sales event.
While the major goals for the events were brand messaging and confidence-building, Carlisle says that ecommerce is an important factor. The company reconfigured its online store, and while conversion rates have improved steadily over the past year, conversion significantly improved during Your Brandlive events.
The company promotes the online events through Facebook and its email list, much of which is acquired by signups at farmers' markets. "We get a lot of pass-along from our friends," Carlisle says.
Marmot (still another Jarden company), Woot.com, Levi's and Nordica also have used Your Brandlive. The platform combines live video, which can be used to demonstrate and hype products, with the ability for customers to ask questions and make comments. Consumers click on a web link to access the retailer's branded web page and participate in the flash sale. The interface allows for easy tweeting, as well.
Your Brandlive can be integrated into the company's website, and events also can be hosted on the Facebook page. It supports social sharing, moderation, PowerPoint slides and custom modules. Event hosts can monitor viewer comments and questions via an app for desktop, phone or tablet.
Retailers can continue to generate revenue following the actual sale by posting video of the recorded and archived events.
The service is sold via monthly subscription packages, ranging from $2,400 to $6,000 per year. Customers can select from very basic levels of integration with content management systems to a deeper level of integration with existing websites via APIs.
Following a year of beta customer testing, Your Brandlive announced its public launch today, along with $200,000 in seed funding.
Your Brandlive was conceived in 2011 as a way for companies to provide demos and training for sales staff, according to chief executive Fritz Brumder, with Nordica using the platform to introduce its new line of skis to retailers. Now, with 25 paying customers, Brumder is positioning the service as a way for retailers to have a 24-hour ecommerce presence staffed with live people.
"We have now identified that consumers like the experience, so we are now transitioning from an event focus to a much larger opportunity to create a live video digital retail store," he says.
Two all-day events in January with Etsy demonstrated how that might work. Each day, ten Etsy sellers signed up to host an hour each. According to Brumder, 20 percent of viewers made purchase during the event; 90 percent said they would be interested in being notified of more Your Brandlive events; and 100 percent said they'd recommend the events to others.
Most events are casually produced, with hosts standing in front of a stationary camera and rudimentary lighting. The low-tech aesthetic seems to appeal to consumers trained by YouTube. In fact, one Your Brandlive customer that had a slickly produced event did not move as much product, according to Brumder. He says, "consumers are looking for just good-enough video; they don't want to be distracted by the video itself."

Mark Cavendish says the boil poisoning cycling should have been Lance-d earlier - but insists his sport is no longer dirty.
Cavendish did not mince his words as Lance Armstrong was officially stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and scrubbed from the record books.
"I'm sick of talking about doping," he said. "This is stuff that happened in the past. It didn't involve me, it didn't affect me. You might as well ask about World War Two."
Cavendish, one of the superstars of road racing post-Armstrong, admits "what's happened today probably should have happened sooner" as "cycling is being tarnished by how it was back then and that's not fair".
He added: "The sport has moved on. I wouldn't be in it otherwise. I'm winning at the highest level and I'm doing it clean. Maybe I'm naive, but I don't think so."
The Manx Missile, who will ride next year for Belgian outfit Omega Pharma Quick-Step, attacked decathlon legend Daley Thompson's call for cycling to be removed from the Olympics until it puts its house in order.
"If someone tests positive in track and field, is he saying athletics has to be kicked out of the Olympics?" he said. "It's not the sport, it's individuals.
"There's cheats in every aspect of life, be it entertainment, business, sport or journalism. Anywhere there's the potential for financial gain, people cheat.
"If you put in the money, the time and the effort you're going to catch cheats. I guarantee you.
"I also guarantee if you go back into the past - even the present - of a lot of other sports, and dig as cycling digs, you'll uncover cheats to the extent that cycling has.
"It's just that cycling cares more about a clean and fair sport than it does about a clean image for its franchise."

A wide-open field of 11 passed the entry box for Saturday's Lane's End Breeders' Futurity (gr. II), the first of three stakes on day two of Keeneland's 17-day fall meeting. The race is a key prep for the Bessemer Trust Breeders' Cup Juvenile (gr. I) as several of the 2-year-olds in the field will be testing two turns for the first time.The $400,000 Lane's End Breeders' Futurity is run at 1 1/116 miles and has a post time of 3:55 EST. All will tote 121 pounds.Those expecting to attract the most attention are Tiger Hunt, Cooperation, Mass Media, and a pair from trainer Nick Zito: The Cliff's Edge and Eurosilver.Tiger Hunt already owns a win at the distance, taking down the Miller Genuine Draft Cradle Stakes at River Downs on Labor Day. The son of Kris S. came from 10 lengths off the pace to win going away by 1 1/4 miles. Bred by WinStar Farm, Tiger Hunt is owned by Team Valor and is trained by Elliott Walden.Cooperation was a seven-length maiden winner at Del Mar on Aug. 17. In his stakes debut in the Sept. 10 Del Mar Futurity (gr. II), the son of Halo's Image ran fourth behind Siphonizer. Siphonizer figures to be the favorite this weekend in the Norfolk Stakes (gr. II) at Santa Anita. Cooperation is owned by James McIngvale and is trained by Bob Baffert. Baffert won back-to-back Breeders' Futuritys in 1999-2000 with Captain Steve and Arabian Light, respectively.Mass Media has yet to go beyond six furlongs, but as a son of Touch Gold out of a Forty Niner mare, he should be able to handle the stretch out. After breaking his maiden by 11 1/4 lengths in August, he came back to win an allowance race by 22 lengths. Both races were at Louisiana Downs. Cole Norman trains Mass Media for Gary and Mary West.Eurosilver, a homebred son of Unbrilded's Song ran into a tough one in his Aug. 8 debut at Saratoga, finishing second to eventual Hopeful Stakes (gr. I) winner Silver Wagon. Returning at the Spa on the meet's closing day, Sept. 1, Eurosilver broke his maiden by 5 3/4 lengths going 6 1/2 furlongs. The Cliff's Edge also broke his maiden at Saratoga, then ran third in the Kentucky Cup Juvenile (gr. III) at Turfway Park on Sept. 13. He was elevated to second via the disqualification of the winner, Pomeroy, who came out and bothered The Cliff's Edge slightly in upper stretch. The Cliff's Edge is a $200,000 Keeneland September sale graduate.The Breeders' Futurity, won last year by Sky Mesa, hasn't produced a Breeders' Cup Juvenile (gr. I) winner since Favorite Trick in 1997, but it has proved to be a springboard for top runners later in their career. Recent winners include Cat Thief and Captain Steve in 1998 and 1999, respectively. Two years ago, Harlan's Holiday ran second to Siphonic.Lane's End Breeders' Futurity (gr. II), $400,000, Keeneland, 2-year-olds, 1 1/16 miles.

William of Newburgh – the 2nd earliest Vampire author!
Walter Map and William of Newburgh were contemporaries. Six years after Walter Map wrote De Nagis Curialium (the first written accounts of vampire-like creatures), fellow Englishman William of Newburgh wrote History of English Affairs. Published in Latin, it covered English history from 1066 to 1198 and discussed "revenants," souls who return from the dead. Renevants were not ghosts. The word "revenant" derives from the French, revenir, "to return." Revenants were thought to return to get revenge or harass their family, neighbors or killer. As William of Newburgh wrote: "One would not easily believe that corpses come out of their graves and wander around, animated by some evil spirit, to terrorize or harm the living, unless there were many cases in our times, supported by ample testimony."
Below are excerpts from Book Five of History of English Affairs:
Chapter 22: Of the prodigy of the dead man, who wandered about after burial
In these days a wonderful event befell in the county of Buckingham, which I, in the first instance, partially heard from certain friends, and was afterwards more fully informed of by Stephen, the venerable archdeacon of that province. A certain man died, and, according to custom, by the honorable exertion of his wife arid kindred, was laid in the tomb on the eve of the Lord's Ascension. On the following night, however, having entered the bed where his wife was reposing, he not only terrified her on awaking, but nearly crushed her by the insupportable weight of his body. The next night, also, he afflicted the astonished woman in the same manner, who, frightened at the danger, as the struggle of the third night drew near, took care to remain awake herself, and surround herself with watchful companions. Still he came; but being repulsed by the shouts of the watchers, and seeing that he was prevented from doing mischief, he departed. Thus driven off from his wife, he harassed in a similar manner his own brothers, who were dwelling in the same street; but they, following the cautious example of the woman, passed the nights in wakefulness with their companions, ready to meet and repel the expected danger. He appeared, notwithstanding, as if with the hope of surprising them should they be overcome with drowsiness; but being repelled by the carefulness and valor of the watchers, he rioted among the animals, both indoors and outdoors, as their wildness and unwonted movements testified.
Having thus become a like serious nuisance to his friends and neighbors, he imposed upon all the same necessity for nocturnal watchfulness; and in that very street a general watch was kept in every house, each being fearful of his approach unawares. After having for some time rioted in this manner during the night-time alone, he began to wander abroad in daylight, formidable indeed to all, but visible only to a few; for oftentimes, on his encountering a number of persons, he would appear to one or two only though at the same time his presence was not concealed from the rest. At length the inhabitants, alarmed beyond measure, thought it advisable to seek counsel of the church; and they detailed the whole affair, with tearful lamentation, to the above-mentioned archdeacon, at a meeting of the clergy over which he was solemnly presiding. Whereupon he immediately intimated in writing the whole circumstances of the case to the venerable bishop of Lincoln, who was then resident in London, whose opinion and judgment on so unwonted a matter he was very properly of opinion should be waited for: but the bishop, being amazed at his account, held a searching investigation with his companions; and there were some who said that such things had often befallen in England, and cited frequent examples to show that tranquillity could not be restored to the people until the body of this most wretched man were dug up and burnt. This proceeding, however, appeared indecent and improper in the last degree to the reverend bishop, who shortly after addressed a letter of absolution, written with his own hand, to the archdeacon, in order that it might be demonstrated by inspection in what state the body of that man really was; and he commanded his tomb to be opened, and the letter having been laid upon his breast, to be again closed: so the sepulcher having been opened, the corpse was found as it had been placed there, and the charter of absolution having been deposited upon its breast, and the tomb once more closed, he was thenceforth never more seen to wander, nor permitted to inflict annoyance or terror upon any one.
Chapter 23: Of a similar occurrence at Berwick
In the northern parts of England, also, we know that another event, not unlike this and equally wonderful, happened about the same time. At the mouth of the river Tweed, and in the jurisdiction of the king of Scotland, there stands a noble city which is called Berwick. In this town a certain man, very wealthy, but as it afterwards appeared a great rogue, having been buried, after his death sallied forth (by the contrivance, as it is believed, of Satan) out of his grave by night, and was borne hither and thither, pursued by a pack of dogs with loud barkings; thus striking great terror into the neighbors, and returning to his tomb before daylight. After this had continued for several days, and no one dared to be found out of doors after dusk — for each dreaded an encounter with this deadly monster — the higher and middle classes of the people held a necessary investigation into what was requisite to he done; the more simple among them fearing, in the event of negligence, to be soundly beaten by this prodigy of the grave; but the wiser shrewdly concluding that were a remedy further delayed, the atmosphere, infected and corrupted by the constant whirlings through it of the pestiferous corpse, would engender disease and death to a great extent; the necessity of providing against which was shown by frequent examples in similar cases. They, therefore, procured ten young men renowned for boldness, who were to dig up the horrible carcass, and, having cut it limb from limb, reduce it into food and fuel for the flames. When this was done, the commotion ceased. Moreover, it is stated that the monster, while it was being borne about (as it is said) by Satan, had told certain persons whom it had by chance encountered, that as long as it remained unburned the people should have no peace. Being burnt, tranquility appeared to be restored to them; but a pestilence, which arose in consequence, carried off the greater portion of them: for never did it so furiously rage elsewhere, though it was at that time general throughout all the borders of England, as shall be more fully explained in its proper place.

ISLAMORADA -- Council members two weeks ago gave verbal support to a proposal by Councilman Ken Philipson to move the mayoral selection to early October in order to have it coincide with the start of Islamorada's fiscal year.
But when the Village Council convenes Wednesday, Oct. 23, its first official vote on the matter could prove to be more than a formality.
"I just don't think it's necessary," Councilman Mike Forster said in an interview Monday.
Unlike in some cities, where the mayorship is an elected post empowered with executive authority, the Islamorada mayorship is largely honorary. Council members select the mayor by majority vote on an annual basis to chair meetings and sign official documents. The mayor doesn't make executive decisions and has just one vote, like other council members.
Under existing village law, the council must select a mayor at its first meeting after November elections are certified, or on off years, at its first meeting in December.
In a surprise move on Oct. 10, Philipson relinquished the gavel early and nominated then-Vice Mayor Ted Blackburn to be his replacement. The ordinance the council is scheduled to take a first vote on this week would move future mayoral votes to the first meeting of October as well. If the council doesn't pass the ordinance, it will have to reappoint Blackburn mayor, or select someone else for the post, at its Dec. 12 meeting.
Blackburn said Monday that he's leaning toward supporting the change in order to match the mayoral term with budget season. But he noted that he hasn't made up his mind entirely.
"I'm still philosophically going over it in my head," he said.
Councilwoman Deb Gillis also said she's taking a wait-and-see approach.
Two other board members, Forster and Councilman Dave Purdo, said they're against changing the mayoral selection date. The biggest problem, both men said, is that in election years the new mayor could be voted out of office just a month later. All five council members must run for re-election every two years.
"It's kind of crazy to appoint a mayor and then a month later have an election where he might get booted out," Purdo said.
Holding the mayoral selection during the midst of an election campaign could also make the process more politicized, he said.
Also on Wednesday, the council will consider a $100,000 purchase contract for a parcel just south of White Marlin Boulevard, behind the Lower Matecumbe Key Fire Station. The site would be used for the island's lone sewer vacuum station, part of the village's $99 million sewer project. It is the final vacuum station site that the village needs to acquire.
The two appraisals that sewer contractor Layne commissioned for the property came in well below the $100,000 contract price, at $85,000 and $81,000 respectively. Layne is known locally as Reynolds Water Islamorada.

You might expect such a headline, given the seemingly disportionate attention the Catholic Church has received for clergy sexual abuse. Mind you, CWR covered clergy sexual abuse from the outset and criticized folks high and low. It's not exactly as if we simply wanted to change the subject. At the same time, it seems that other institutions involved with cover ups of child sexual abuse have often gotten, if not a pass, at least disproportionately less attention.
That situation is starting to change. A recent case in point: the BBC. Yes, you read correctly. The BBC is being accused of sexual abuse and cover up. According to an AP story:
broadened Tuesday, with the broadcaster saying that it is investigating
claims of sexual abuse and harassment against nine staff members and
contributors, in addition to the late disgraced children's TV host Jimmy
"The BBC has been rocked by allegations that Savile, who
died last year, abused underage teens over several decades, sometimes
on BBC premises. Some of the alleged victims have accused other
entertainers and BBC staff of participating in abuse during the 1960s,
70s and 80s.
"Director-general George Entwistle told British
lawmakers Tuesday that the BBC is looking into historical allegations of
sexual abuse or harassment against 'between eight and 10' past and
present employees.
"The BBC press office later clarified the figure, saying
there were allegations of 'sexual harassment, assault or inappropriate
conduct' against nine current or recent staff and contributors to the
BBC, which employs some 20,000 people.
"The broadcaster said some of the alleged offenses dated
to years ago, but the victims had all come forward since the Savile
scandal erupted. Some of the cases have been passed to police while
others are being investigated internally."

While vigorous debate is welcome and encouraged, please note that in the interest of maintaining a civilized and helpful level of discussion, comments containing obscene language or personal attacks—or those that are deemed by the editors to be needlessly combative and inflammatory—will not be published.

Advice on Breast Augmentation
Cosmetic breast surgery is more of an art than a science. With that in mind, if you visit ten different plastic surgeons, you are likely to get ten different opinions based on their training and experience. This is not to say that one doctor is right and another is wrong. They just have differing perspectives. Sometimes, the more information you get in this area, the more confusing it can be. My best advice would be to select a plastic surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) and has a good reputation for this type of surgery. Talk to your friends who have had cosmetic breast surgery and see who they recommend. Talk to former patients of the plastic surgeons you visit and look at before/after pictures. At the end of the day, you want to select the plastic surgeon with whom you feel most comfortable performing your surgery.
The best size for you?
This is the approach I use to help guide my patients with their implant size selection: I consider two factors when selecting implants for my patients:
1.Dimensional planning
2.Gel Implant Sizing system
Dimensional planning – The measurements of your chest wall are taken. Also, the breast dimensions including the height, width, and current dimensions of each breast form the basis of dimensional planning. Based on these measurements, the implant size is recommended. This will give you a unique breast implant that is suited for your body frame. However, there are some limitations of what size we can recommend. For instance, some implants may just be too big for a narrow chest wall. Your surgeon can review this with you during the consultation.
Gel Implant Sizing system – During the preliminary breast implant consultation, you will be provided with an option to "try on" a variety of implant shapes and sizes. You can also visualize the possible outcomes of your surgery which helps you to get that perfect size to give you the shape that you longed for. This way your preferences are known and you can then pick a range of implants that will "fit" just right to give a soft natural fuller look. If you have decided on saline implants, then based on the gel sizer you select, we can guide you to the saline implant that achieves a similar look.
Hope this helps.

What Size and Site is Best for Me?
I would note that there is a noticeable size and shape difference to the breasts, and, not wishing to add to your confusion, the possibility of a breast lift on the left to equalize the amount of breast skin and reposition the nipple and areola should be in the mix.
Implant choice should reflect your goal and anatomy, and implants should be chosen with keeping implant diameter about even with breast width.
Your idea of a C or D may bear limited resemblance to mine, so getting online advice on size is not very useful. Some surgeons estimate that about 200 cc of implant increases one cup size, but that is just a guideline.
If you are really undecided, perhaps holding off until you are confident in your decision makes sense. All the best.

The more plastic surgeons that you see the more opinions you will get and the story will become even more confusing. Select a plastic surgeon that you trust and work together to select an appropriate breast implant size.
Best Breast Implant Size/ Profile for Me?
Thank you for the question and pictures. My best suggestion is to spend more time with your chosen plastic surgeon. Discuss your goals and priorities. In my practice, I use goal pictures to help with the communication process. Also, make sure you discuss the existing breast asymmetry and how much achieving breast symmetry is important to you; it may be necessary to perform additional surgery on the lower breast to achieve improved breast symmetry.
Again, at this point, you'll be much better spending off spending additional time with your plastic surgeon than with online consultants.
Best wishes.

Hi Lilac,
Thanks for the photos. It appears you have some breast asymmetry. Without measurements and examination it is difficult to give you specific recommendations. The left breast is larger and hangs lower. You will need a lift/small reduction and implants on this side. The right will need just an augmentation. The implant profile will be based on your width. The position of the implant submuscular or subfascial depends on the amount of soft tissue coverage. I would review your options with your surgeon.
Web reference: http://www.toddbkochmd.com
No time for these doubts one week before breast aug
The right implant for you has the width to match your chest width and the profile for the upper pole look you want. Implants alone will magnify not correct your asymmetry so you might need a lift on the low side. Call your surgeon tomorrow and discuss.
Undecided on surgery 1 week before!
Surgery next week
You may want to reschedule your surgery for a later date since you are having second thoughts. Based on your photos, you may need 2 different size implants, and maybe a minor lift on one side. It is best to seek a Plastic Surgeon that you trust to make the best decision for your care.
Implant size
Two different sized implants may also be used to correct size asymmetry.

This initial was used in a design for my 6 year old granddaughters school bag. I added other fun charms and sparkly beads to make an unique zipper pull for her bag. It is easy for her to identify her bag from the others in the class and she loves being unique and special. She is the only one with a Q in her name.

Actors face the music
Page Tools
Kevin Spacey performs during the "Beyond the Sea" tour.
Photo: Stefano Paltera
Everyone has a voice. But does that mean everyone has to cut an album? Hollywood stars think so.
The record-store cut-out bins and private kitsch collections are bursting with releases from actors who, in a blur of hubris, mistook themselves for singers.
Even Phyllis Diller.
Wait - it gets better. On her album, she covered the Stones' Satisfaction.
Equally surreal moments include a recording of Proud Mary by Leonard Nimoy, a spoken-word take on Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds by William Shatner, and a version of Stand By Me by Muhammad Ali.
But now a trio of prominent thespians - Robert Downey Jr, Minnie Driver and Kevin Spacey - have all risked critical ridicule with debut CDs.
Spacey is taking the most daring leap by doing his own singing as Bobby Darin in the movie Beyond the Sea. And he's performing Darin's music live in venues around the country. So, if nothing else, you have to give the guy credit for nerve.
Those who watch late-night talk shows know Spacey as a terrific mimic. But why listen to what amounts to an I Can't Believe It's Not Bobby Darin CD when you could just as easily play the actual thing?
Viewed this way, Spacey's recording becomes something of a stunt, if a relatively accurate one. Spacey has the rhythmic chops to navigate Darin's brisk phrasing - no mean feat - though he clearly lacks the earlier star's elan.
You can measure the limits to his voice in the ballads. His take on Mack the Knife has more smarm than charm.
The album's producer, Phil Ramone, set Spacey's voice in some nice arrangements and surrounded him with enough echo to give his singing a bit of shimmer.
Of course, if you've never bought a Bobby Darin album, and the movie inspires you, it would be a sin to start here.
Joni Mitchell fans probably still haven't forgiven Downey for his mewling cover of River, which he moped through on Ally McBeal some years back.
And they shouldn't.
But that recording was a sweet memory compared to Downey's solo debut The Futurist. Downey offers mainly original pieces, performed on spare acoustic guitar or piano. Think: Tori Amos with a sex change.
But it's not Downey's eccentric melodies that make his record unlistenable. It's his overarticulated singing.
Downey leans into the husky end of his voice, then shoots up for a cracked falsetto with such self-consciousness, it's impossible to hear the tune.
Driver owns an iffy instrument with little wind power and less distinction. Her pale tones aren't done any favours by her drowsy country-tinged tunes in Everything I've Got in My Pocket. The album has so little momentum, it makes the Cowboy Junkies seem manic. Even her cover of Springsteen's Hungry Heart threaten to lapse into a coma.
Actress/singer or singer/actress? Minnie Driver during her guest appearance on MTV.

Ultimately, her record isn't as much ear-achingly bad as it is a stone-cold bore.

Sushi Display Case
Tips from the Experts: "Sushi cases come in a number of different sizes, but it isn't always convenient to build a sushi bar around a case. When shopping for irregular sized or shaped sushi bars, it's a good idea to get a quote on a custom case. They are typically around the same price per foot of case, but can be made to custom fit your operation." - RudyACityDiscount can supply your Japanese restaurant or sushi bar with sleek and attractive refrigerated and non refrigerated countertop display cases from Hoshizaki and Turbo Air.

recommendations for distributor timing
Hi all,
Well, I have most of the bugs worked out of my '37 truck and now am moving on to some tuning and optimizing. Right now, I have decided to convert from a MSD pro billet distributor to a similar model that has vacuum advance. I am going to convert to aid in overall performance of the engine....something I should have done a long time ago.
Current setup is:
355 SBC, with comp cam XE 262 camshaft with 1.6 rockers. There are aluminum vortec style heads, Holley 650cfm carb shorty headers. This engine was dynoed at 370hp/380ft-lb torque. Overall, this engine runs well....just want to make it as good as it can be.
Current timing is set at 18deg initial, with all in at 36 deg at 3000rpm.
I do have an issue with the engine getting slightly hot during stop and go traffic, and am hopefull that adding some part throttle advance will help. No issue with temp when driving down the road. In any case, this is a sperate issue....just wanted to add it to the equation.
So, with that said, any ideas on a baseline setup?
Without any input, I think starting with the same basic setup that would simply add up to 10 deg of timing with the vacuum advance at part throttle.
Any ideas??? Comments would be apprecitated.
that soundslike a very good place to start.maybe use a little less gas?,,,lol.
Use full manifold vacuum. Your initial timing is most likely causing it to run warm @ stop and go. You'll need to reset your idle speed after connecting vac advance.
Generally, using as much initial timing as possible will give the best vacuum and throttle response. But you don't need to run too much initial w/that cam. In fact I would think 18 degrees should be about right, and that 28 degrees initial is too much. A little info on setting up the distributor is here. Be sure the damper TDC line is correct, and that it's showing you true TDC. There were several combos of timing tabs and dampers used through the years, more on that here.
Use a vacuum advance can set to give you 10-12 degrees timing and hook it to a manifold vacuum source.
But I don't think timing is the cause of the heating problem. How hot is it getting? You using a shroud, clutch fan positioned correctly in the shroud? Some info on the cooling system is here.
Thanks for the feedback, very good information...the reason I like this site.
I agree that I should verify TDC. At the current 18 deg base timing, I never have a problem starting the car...even in the hottest conditions. Maybe the measurement is actually lower than it really is as it never fights turning over. One way to find out....I will verify the tab on the timing cover and be done with it.
Regarding the overheating, I have a large Walker copper/brass radiator which is the "Z" model for high heat loads. In front if it(I know this isn't the best...but needed due to the cramped engine compartment) there are two electric fans. The larger of the two is an 18" 2700CFM(biggest I could buy), and the smaller one is a 9" 900CFM(max size for space available). There is no shroud, but the fans are very close to the radiator, and there is a small fraction of radiator surface area that isn't exposed to one of the two fans. I know this isn't optimal, but it is what it is.
The engine runs great, but can get up to 215/220 during hot days with stop and go traffic. At cruising speeds, I can turn the fans off and it runs about 180deg. This brings me to the conclusion that I really do need a shroud(easier said than done), or that the timing is adding heat to the situation. I can say that I have never had the temp get to a point where I was really nervous(230 and above), I just know that the temps should be a lot closer to my thermostat temp.....so an improvement needs to be made.
This is why I decided to first fix the distributor as it really needs to be fixed for a number of reasons....and will be a lot easier than the fan shroud project.
Thanks again for the comments
Well, the shiny new MSD vacuum advance came last night and I installed it tonight. Ended up setting the base timing at 15deg, and left the 21 deg bushing in, that limits the total advance to 36 deg. When I add the vacuum, the idle timing goes up to 35 deg(which I don't understand because it is supposed to add only 10 deg). The MSD directions said to hook to ported source, but I went right for the manifold vacuum.
I also documented the curve for base+mechanical, and base+ mechanical +vacuum.
Timing is all in at 3000 rpm without vacuum, and has a nice progressive curve starting about 1200 rpm.
With the vacuum, it will pull 43 deg at 1800 rpm, and will run up to 51 at 2500 rpm. This is where my truck will cruise as I have a 7000r4, and 4:30 rear end.
Tomorrow I will take it for a ride and see how it behaves on the road. I can tell at idle that it runs much smoother and had to drop the idle about 300 rpm with the vacuum advance. I am hoping that there will be an impact on the low speed engine temp. Too early to tell right now.
Any concerns with the advance numbers that I have? Is the 20 deg vacuum advance too much? Thanks.....
you test it out and let us know how it works.Im sure you can limit teh vacuum advance? If all else fails,read the instructions,some guys do
Well I looked closer at the instructions and the vacuum advance is supposed to be 10 deg, and it is non-adjustable. I know it is pulling almost 20 deg, as I am using a very good digital dial back timing light. Did a little web surfing on the MSD website and it seems that there is a lot of variation in the "10 deg" vacuum pod. Seems that some pull 15 deg, 17 deg etc. It is what it is, so I may simply work around it if it becomes and issue.
I will take it for a drive tonight. If there is too much advance, I will adjust by moving base timing down a little and install a different max advance bushing to keep the 35 deg "all in" number. More to come...
For some god awful reason MSD instructions may be refering to 10 degrees total dist advance with the vacuum adv canister, which will show up as 20 degrees at the crank so their number may be accurate in that regard.
You can install a vacuum advance limiter plate for the msd dist to get you back in line towards 10-12 crank deg maximum advance, 20 is way too much. Try not too exceed 48 total with everything including vac adv all in.
Well, I took the truck for a ride tonite. It was kind of cool out here in Michigan....about 65 deg.
Before I left, I retarded the base timing to 13 deg. This made the all in number at 34, with the max including vacuum at 48 deg.
I tried to put the engine in many different situations to see if there was any detonation, or other problems. Overall, I have to say that I was VERY impressed. While the max acceleration wasn't really effected, the part throttle, idle, and cruising characteristics were much improved.
In addition, while driving around, I shut off both of my fans and the engine temp stayed right at the thermostat temp of 160. When I got back to my house, I kept the fans off and let the engine add some heat. I got it up to 210, then switched on the fans. The temp leveled off, then slowly started to drop. I shut it down after about 10 minutes and it had dropped to about 190. Of course, I need to have it hotter out to really test the temps, but I am VERY encouraged as I know it is better......just don't know if it is bulletproof yet.
As for the vacuum advance, I called MSD and they said that it will pull 10 deg at 10"..., but will go up to 16 deg if there is enough vacuum, AND there is a +- 2 deg spec on that. SO, the directions aren't very good from MSD when they say the max is 10 deg as it could be....and is....20 deg n my engine.
I need to think about limiting the vacuum by either putting a stop in, or adding a non-MSD vacuum can.
I am considering the following:
Limit vacuum to 10 deg.....now at 20
Set base timing back to 18...... Now at 13
Change bugshing to limit mech advance to 36 deg..... Now at 34
Any suggestions? I think I could live with what I have if there isn't a reason to make a change.
I dont think anyone needs to tell you anything.You seem to be close already and will likely have it perfect before any ideas come up. Im glad I read your thread

West Palm Beach Inquirer
William E. Carter, well-known sportsman and clubman of Philadelphia and Unionville, Pa., died early Wednesday morning at a West Palm Beach hospital after a brief illness. He had been spending the season at the Breakers, which he had visited each winter for the past few years.
Members of his family had been called to Palm Beach by word of his illness. His son, William T. Carter, 2d, Bryn Mawr, was at the Breakers; his daughter, Mrs. Samuel J. Reeves, and Mr. Reeves, also of Bryn Mawr, who had visited Mrs. George Luke Mesker earlier in the season, returned there. The three left early Wednesday afternoon to accompany the body to Philadelphia.
Mr. Carter was a member of the Racquet Club and of the Sons of the American Revolution in Philadelphia.
The Mizell-Simon Mortuary had charge of the arrangements.

Nelson replaced starter Kole McKamey, who went out with a knee injury on the third play of the game, and delivered one big pass after another. His last touchdown, a 61-yarder to Marcus Smith with 10:44 left in the game, turned out to be the game-winner as the Aggies (1-1) scored two late touchdowns behind another brilliant passing performance by sophomore Chase Holbrook.
Holbrook, who went into the game leading the nation in passing, completed a school record 37 of 56 passes for 472 yards and four touchdowns. The 472 yards was the third best in school history.
New Mexico (1-1) built a 34-14 lead on the Nelson to Smith pass, then had to hold on as Holbrook threw a 60-yard TD pass to Nick Cleaver and a 13-yard pass to Derek Dubois.
The Aggies got the ball back with 1:44 left but the drive stalled at the NMSU 33 after four incomplete passes Nelson wasn't spectacular, completing 11 of 26 passes for 283 yards, but when he found receivers, the plays usually went for long yardage. Smith caught three touchdown passes and had 179 yards on 5 catches.
NMSU's Derek Dubois caught 7 passes for 104 yards, Chris Williams had 7 catches for 94 yards and A.J. Harris 7 for 80 yards.
No such success by the Aggies on the ground. New Mexico held the Aggies to 60 rushing yards, minus 3 yards in the first half. The Aggie backs also had four fumbles. The mostly costly were by David Romaka at the New Mexico 2-yard line which killed an 18-play, nearly eight minute drive in the third quarter and one by Chris Nwoko at the New Mexico 46 that set up the Nelson to Smith touchdown.
New Mexico forced three Aggie turnovers in the second quarter and converted two of them into 10 points for a 24-14 halftime lead.
Defensive back O.J. Swift intercepted a Holbrook pass that bounced off Dubois and returned it 46 yards to the NMSU 34. On the next play, Nelson flipped the ball back to third string quarterback Donovan Porterie, who found Smith wide open in the end zone.
On NMSU's next drive, halfback Justine Buries was hit by Lobo defensive end Tyler Donaldson and fumbled, with Donaldson recovering at the NMSU 31. That set up a 38-yard field goal by Kenny Byrd. The Aggies host Texas Southern on Saturday at 6 p.m. in Aggie Memorial Stadium

Don't say?!? Sony keeps playing with end user but this maybe this could be something possitive to some of them. (Sony can't stand Nintendo's Wii-U..that's crystal clear).
To quote:
Thanks to a PS Vita firmware update recently released by Sony, users can now turn the handheld device into a controller for their PS3, as well as use it to play a number of PSOne Classics games.
Firmware version 1.80 allows for the Wii U-esque utility, as well as a number of other features, including, at long last, the option for d-pad menu navigation. Now, PS Vita owners can enable the d-pad in settings for use in the handheld's menus, which was heretofore touch screen-only. The device's maps and web browser have been enhanced as well, with the additions of a jump-to-top button, the ability to use the rear touchpad to scroll, and a new search bar in the top-left corner.
But what might be the real selling point (well, maybe for some of us) is the access this update gives us to a number of PSOne games now available for download. Such titles include Tomb Raider, Wild Arms, Twisted Metal, Arc the Lad, Final Fantasy VII, Jet Moto, Syphon Filter, Cool Boarders 2 and Hot Shots Golf 2.
Joystiq notes that two games, Cho Aniki and Money Idol Exchanger, PSOne imports published by MonkeyPaw, are downloadable (with Cho Aniki so far confirmed as playable) to the Vita. Neither, they report, is on either an official Sony or MonkeyPaw list of supported games. (FYI: if you're the type that loves weirdness, you're going to want to get your hands on Cho Aniki.)
On the other hand, Joystiq also reports that Um Jammer Lammy, another unlisted game, is not available for the Vita, demonstrating that while not all PSOne games are accessible on the handheld, some are but simply haven't been listed.

I am an awkward guy if you've ever met one. I know how to speak well, but my brain doesn't quite connect fast enough to my tongue when I'm speaking to people. Case in point: my involvement in 2DT's first podcast (tune in to laugh at my awkward speaking, stay all the way through to hear the romantic love story).
I was even awkward with my wife, especially when we first became friends, and even well into dating. While she's the type to feel comfortable speaking to complete strangers (and engages such people daily for fun), I'm the opposite. I'll avoid you if I can – "email me, don't call" is my motto!
But such awkwardness can make it hard to date. I'm reminded of Kimi no Todoke and the most awkward of characters, Sawako. Easily embarrassed around Kazehaya, oblivious of many social conventions, and not prone to talking in front of people, she's painful to watch. The popular Kazehaya isn't much better, at least around Sawako, because he lu-uves hers.
In anime and manga, the interactions between the would-be couple is cute. In real life, many of us would say this: "there's no chemistry."
Chemistry? WHAT?!
I hate when people talk about chemistry in a relationship. Do you know what relationship chemistry is? It's basically a mixture of A) literal body chemicals (attraction) with B) personalities that click and possibly C) some similarities in likes and dislikes. Basically, it's all superficial.
Chemistry is a wonderful thing at the beginning of a relationship, because it makes you feel really good about it and about yourself. It paints a dumb smile on your face, causes butterflies to invade your stomach, and forces you to breath happy sighs.
In the long-run, however, it means almost nothing. This is why: the googly feelings disappear (or at least diminish). "Clicking" starts to matter less than your shared values and the willingness of each side to meet the other with love, grace, and sacrifice.
In fact, a little awkwardness is perhaps better than having good chemistry, because at least at that point, you can focus on what's important instead of finding yourself lost in each others' eyes (or some other cutey nonsense).
Like Sadako and Kazehaya, you can see the other person for who he or she is, and come to appreciate and love their qualities, instead of just their physique, their way, or "how they make you feel."
At the very least, I encourage you to do this: let "chemistry" just be one part (or not) of your relationship and avoid putting too much emphasis on it. If you have it, enjoy it. If you do not, don't dump your would-be boyfriend of girlfriend with the excuse, "there's no chemistry."
Hey, maybe if you focus on what's important, one day you'll be able to answer a friend who asks you about what attracted you to your boyfriend in the first place with this response:
We just had great awkwardness.

You have been on a roll lately. Not only is this a great post, you incorporated one of my favorite manga. I also am a romantic at heart, and can't wait to meet the girl that I will want to pursue. Many of the younger leaders here, are falling in love. It is so cool.
Great post. A lot of people judge love from how it's portrayed in the media – that there should be fireworks and butterflies, when in reality love isn't always that dramatic and can take many shapes and forms. When it comes to manga, however, the romantic pairings that stand out most to me have both great chemistry and something more that brings them closer together (and that 'something more' for me is usually that they make each other stronger people). Chemistry shouldn't be everything, but it does count – probably more for the audience than for the couple. Chemistry is that extra something that is necessary to make me fall in love with a couple, which is why even though I find Sawako and Kazehaya adorable, they aren't one of my favorite couples.
For me chemistry isn't just about the adrenaline, dopamine and serotonin rushing around in your system but, about having a good rapport with the other person, about being in sync, (something which is, of course, aided by all those lovely, fuzzy chemicals!) I take awkwardness as a sign I'm just not compatible with that other person…
Glad to hear a little awkwardness didn't stop you finding love though!

De nada, thanks for posting! Always enjoy readin' what you've got to say!
I dropped KnT a long time ago. I find Sawako's awkwardness and naivete totally unbelievable. And I find the couple's awkwardness frustrating and tiring. Yes, the operative word is tiring. It's no surprise then that a lot of formerly eager readers have dropped this manga. It's tiring. Just my opinion though. Don't hate me. ^__^
Haha, great stuff, I like the final paragraphs in particular. Also, random story, my sis-in-law said pretty much the same thing when we were having a heart-to-heart earlier today, on the importance of /not/ expecting butterflies when you first meet a potential future waifu, how (well, from her experience) that that's more of a giddy teenager-thing. However, to each their own, I guess. Also, I never thought of Sawako-Kazehaya in that way; clearly, as shoujo leads, they are made for each other, but I never considered how important that precise /awkwardness/ is, as opposed to just being another obstacle/ excuse for generating dramatic irony. Thanks for the read!
