text: Some young artists from Mount Desert Island High School are learning what it's like to take their skills outside the classroom. During school vacation week, they've been commissioned to decorate the walls of a new business in Ellsworth.It's not unusual for these half-a-dozen art students from MDI High School to break out in song, with paint brushes in hand.Senior Emily Schaefer says, "We've all known each other since we were really little anyways. We've grown up doing the same things and we've taken different art classes or done different art things."Their current work will soon be on display at Motives Hair and Tanning Salon on Washington Street, thanks to co-owner Cynthia Johnston. "I was looking at the rooms and we're doing themes in all of the rooms and I just decided it would be really, really nice to have murals on the walls. And being graduates from MDI, I thought – well, why not call the art department."The paint project counts as community service for the students.It's a lot of work, but it's also a lot fun – even for Alyssa Murad who turned into a paint palette for the day."They kind of had fun pretending to drop the paint on my arm and start a random paint fight. But I don't fight back so i was the easy target for them to go on. And it's okay – I like being the new mural."Once the rural murals are finished, Bradley Thurston says he hopes they're something customers will really enjoy."I hope they just think it's a like a nice, relaxing place and that it's beautiful and it will help calm them down."Johnston believes the students will get something out of this work as well."I think what they're going to take out of this is just a pride in doing something that people are going to look at every single day and they're going to feel good when they look at it."The students expect to finish their work by Friday. And the co-owners say the tanning side of the business should open in the next couple of weeks, with the hair salon to follow soon after that.

Martinrea stock falls, hit by lawsuit and downgrades
By Solarina Ho
TORONTO, Sept 30 (Reuters) - Shares in auto parts manufacturer Martinrea International Inc extended their slump on Monday after analysts downgraded the stock following a claim filed last week that alleged that some company officials and directors breached their fiduciary duties.
Martinrea, in a statement, said it had received a copy of the claim and was preparing its defense. The company did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
According to a statement released on Thursday, Natale Rea, Martinrea vice chairman until June 2012, and Rea Holdings Inc have filed a claim in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice.
"The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendant directors and senior officers of Martinrea breached their fiduciary duties to Martinrea in relation to a series of related party transactions involving certain suppliers and customers of Martinrea and certain payments allegedly made in connection with such transactions," the statement said.
It said Rea is considering actions, including calling for a special shareholders meeting to remove the board and elect new members. Rea's representatives could not be reached for comment.
Martinrea shares slumped as much as 8.8 percent on Monday after sinking 10.3 percent on Friday. By early afternoon, the shares were 3.3 percent lower at C$10.60.
BMO and RBC cut Martinrea to perform from outperform, while Canaccord Genuity cut the stock to hold from buy. Canaccord and BMO both trimmed their target price to C$11.50 from C$14.75 and C$14.50 respectively.
"Mr. Rea has made serious allegations against certain senior managers and directors of Martinrea," BMO's Peter Sklar said in a note to clients.
"In the interim, we believe there may be a considerable period of time until these allegations are resolved, as well potential damages could be material." (Reporting by Solarina Ho; Editing by Janet Guttsman and Dan Grebler)

The pencil grasp (or grip) describes the way a child holds the crayon or pencil.
When handwriting is poor, the child's grip on the pencil is one of the first things that is observed.
A mature and efficient grasp of the pencil will only develop if your child's other fine motor skills have developed properly.
Pencil-and-paper activities are NOT the best way to help your child develop a good pencil grasp!
It is really important that you understand the basic developmental stages of holding a pencil and not force your toddler to use a grasp that he/she is not yet ready for.
You would not expect your toddler to walk and run and skip like a 6 year old, so why expect your toddler to hold a pencil like a 6-year old?
Usually, given normal play and development opportunities (lots of preparatory skills like cutting etc), by the time your child is 5-6 years old, he/she will have the correct pencil grip needed for handwriting.
But if we force the
"correct grip" before the muscles are developmentally ready to
control the pencil in that way, we run the risk of awkward pencil grasps emerging.
If you are concerned about your child's fine motor development, read up on the essential bases for fine motor development to make sure you are helping your toddler to develop these bases.
And then give lots of opportunities for:

Compton's New Horseback Riding Center Is About More Than Flies and Manure
Geege Schuman stashed this in Inequality
Stashed in: Pwnies!, That's racist!, Horses, Racism, Real Estate
Not explicity racist, no.
The timing of these developments was crucial. During the 1960s and '70s, in response to fair housing laws and postwar economic gains by people of color, racially and economically exclusive neighborhoods throughout Los Angeles County began to integrate. Not so in the horse-raising zones. It wasn't that the horse activists were explicitly racist—they weren't—but that the new zoning dramatically increased property values and thereby made horse-keeping lots inaccessible to most people of color, who had been blocked from accruing significant home equity and credit by the discriminatory laws just repealed.
In Shadow Hills, for example, just one year after implementation of the zone in 1963, new homeowners paid $5,000 more for their properties than they would have paid elsewhere for comparably sized lots—this at a time when suburban properties in Los Angeles County cost between $25,000 and $30,000 on average. The city's indefinite protection of the "rural atmosphere," rooted in horse-keeping, is what made the difference, fusing together the historic relationships between whiteness and semi-rural land-use for another generation. Indeed, during the 1970s, the white population of Shadow Hills actually increased, even while other parts of the county were integrating.
I've come to realize there are many things that are not explicitly racist.
Changing the underlying attitudes is going to take society a while.

Updated:BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) -- Philip Chism, the 15-year-old who is accused of raping and murdering his Danvers High School math teacher Colleen Ritzer, has been indicted by a grand jury on charges stemming from an alleged assault on a Department of Youth Services worker.
Prosecutors allege that while Chism was in custody at a Dorchester DYS facility, he assaulted a 29-year-old female DYS worker on June 2. A court document filed by the prosecution state that Chism took steps to "elude staff assigned to him." He then reportedly walked out of a room, followed a counselor into a bathroom and attacked her. "It is alleged that the defendant was able to choke and beat her about the head and face before staff intervened and restrained him,"the documents read.
He was also reportedly carrying a pencil at the time of the attack. The woman's coworkers heard her cries for help and interrupted the attack, according to the Suffolk County District Attorney's office.Chism was transported to Boston Medical Center before he was transferred to Worcester State Hospital.
On Wednesday, a grand jury returned indictments charging Chism with attempted murder by strangulation, assault with intent to murder, kidnapping, and two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.He has been charged as a youthful offender and remains in custody. An arraignment date in the Suffolk County Juvenile Court has not yet been set.

A few scratches, none deep, no holes or gouges or bad rash.
NO cracks structurally sound.
Will fit 00-01 R1, possibly 98-99 as well maybe, not sure...
Excellent for track use
Compare $100 (Both lowers and front V fairing)
$200 best price for lowers from Flexi-glass
Plus $375 for the uppers because the glass lowers don't match with stock uppers
Also excellent to repaint, as most stickers still intact

But when approached by a man in uniform, the once-cuddly 12-year-old instantly sees red.
So far, five postmen, one police officer, five paper boys, one takeaway driver and one construction worker have fallen victim to his violent streak.
Stalking them from afar Blackie, the giant one-and-a-half stone moggy, hisses and spits at his prey before leaping through the air with his claws fully extended.
As his latest victim received treatment for a series of painful scratches, Blackie's apologetic owner took drastic action usually reserved for vicious dogs.
At the door to Ann Hogben's home in Ramsgate, Kent, is a newly erected sign which simply reads: "Warning: Dangerous Cat - Has attacked 13 people in the last six years."
The turning point came in the last few weeks when Blackie attacked a postman as he pushed envelopes through her letter box. Unaware of what lurked behind the door his latest victim was left with a series of open wounds.
"I came home and Blackie was sitting there like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth, but I knew something was wrong because he had blood on his claws," said Miss Hogben, 48.
"When I looked at the letterbox I saw it was covered in blood and it certainly wasn't Blackie's. I couldn't believe it. He is such a big cat and has such a violent temperament with other people. With me, however, he's as soft as a kitten and sleeps on my lap.
"He snores so loudly that he wakes me up. He really is a very loving cat - it just seems as though he has problems with people in uniform. Maybe he has authority issues. I just don't know why he does it."
In the last six years alone Blackie - nicknamed 'Bruiser' by Mrs Hogben - has attacked 13 people. On one occasion the mighty moggy even chased a postman down the drive leading to the house.
"The postman got the fright of his life and just ran off when Blackie went for him," added Mrs Hogben. "Things have got so bad that I've had to put up a sign to warn people.
In another attack on a delivery man Blackie chomped through his finger - right down to the bone - forcing him to go to accident and emergency where he was given a tetanus shot to prevent infection.
As well as the sign warning visitors of her cat Mrs Hogben has also imposed her very own Anti-Social Behaviour Order. The conditions prevent Blackie from going anywhere near the front door and insist that he be locked in an adjacent room whenever there is a knock at the door.
"I've done all I can to stop Blackie making a nuisance out of himself," said the single security co-ordinator.
"There really is nothing else I can do. I've warned all my neighbours. I just hope it brings to an end a very sorry saga."
Blackie, she says, has maintained his bulk over the years by munching tuna, steak and chicken. But the secret ingredient to his stature, she adds, is a can of evaporated milk each week.
"He just loves evaporated milk. He laps it up as soon as I put it in the saucer."

You Think You're Better.
This isn't a story, it's a poem.. The assignment was to put ourselves in someone else's shoes.
They talk all posh, 'Oh my goodness, lah-di-dah',
They have shiny shoes and flashy cars,
They have scones and cream and cups of tea,
Servants, diamonds, plasma TV,
They like to play Polo, watch ballet and opera,
They have hankies and top-hats, 'Good morning Guv'nor!'
With their shirts and their ties and their fancy dresses,
Boys with hair combed, girls with long glossy tresses,
'Hunting old chap, splash of brandy?'
'Jolly spiffing, corking and dandy!'
Well, just 'cos I wear a hoody, and a ponytail,
You think you're more important, my monarch to hail.

Update on Tony Veca:
After 4 treatments of Chemo during the Clinical Trial Tony is
participating in, a CT Scan was taken to see if the Chemo was successful in
shrinking the liver tumors.
The scan showed no shrinkage and just a small percentage of growth; hence
the Dr. called it 'stable'. Dr. feels he should continue treatment for next
2 mos.
(4 -chemos), then scan again as long as he is still feeling pretty good.
Praise God for His Faithfulness. We know all the prayers have been heard.

I'd like to share a great tip for illustrators who already sell or are considering selling artwork on Dreamstime. This idea has worked extremely well for me. And while this article is a little wordy, if you take the time to read it, I think you will find it very worth your effort (especially when you get to the end).
For the past 20 years I've been an illustrator & graphic designer in Chicago where I have lived my entire life. The best advise I can give ANY illustrator or graphic designer (especially if you do a lot of your creating in Photoshop) is this... NEVER, NEVER, EVER throw away ANY of your old files! Burn them to a CD or some retrievable medium, just make sure you keep them! Why? In many of the past illustrations and designs you have created over the years there...

Chapter 5.3Mature
Alex quickly did his seatbelt and turned the key. After sending a quick telepathic message to Catalin through their blood link and receiving a string of swear words in a multitude of different languages, Alex pulled out of the car park and headed home.
They'd only just shut the front door when Beth threw her arms around Alex's neck and kissed him. Alex picked her up and ran up the stairs at vampire speed. All of a sudden they were in his room. Alex set Beth on her feet in front of him. She pushed him backwards onto the bed and knelt over him. Beth tugged at Alex's top before pulling it over his head and ran her fingers over his skin. This was exactly what Alex wanted. Beth wasn't in danger while all they did was kiss, not really. There was still the possibility of something happening though, and that thought loomed over Alex's head.
Alex rolled over – so he was knelt over Beth – in a movement so fast she had hardly any time to register it. His hands slipped under her t-shirt and electricity sparked in his fingers as he touched the skin of her stomach. Beth was getting impatient so pulled her own t-shirt off. She kissed Alex with such a passion that Alex felt his teeth sharpen and lengthen.
Beth broke the kiss and tilted her head back. Alex made no hesitation as he plunged his fangs into her neck. Beth's sharp gasp was the only sound in the room. Where their bare skin touched, fireworks exploded. Beth moaned with the pleasure that Alex knew was coursing through her. He felt the same way that she did. Beth's breathing sped up; faster and faster as the pleasure became more intense.
"As fun as this is to watch..." said Robert from somewhere in the room.
Alex sat up quickly and Beth automatically grabbed her t-shirt to hold to her front.
"What do you want, Robert?" Alex asked sharply.
"Well, I thought you'd be interested to know that you have a visitor at the door."
"Who is it?" Alex asked.
"I don't know him, do I?" Robert said then left the room.
"As much as I'd love to stay here with you, I should probably go and see who it is," Alex whispered to Beth.
Beth groaned but smiled anyway. A short kiss later, Alex was leaving the room, pulling his top back on. Walking quickly down the stairs, Alex opened the front door to see Mr Ashfield.
"Mr Ashfield, what a surprise. How can I help you?" Alex asked.
"I was just bringing the work you missed the other day from our lesson. Shall I come in and explain it to you?" Mr Ashfield said.
"Yes, of course." Alex knew he didn't need to have it explained to him but there were other reasons for the Maths teacher to come.
Alex started to lead the way into the living room but a sudden thump came from behind. Robert had the teacher up against the wall by his neck. His feet hung about ten inches above the floor and it was obvious he couldn't breathe.

Faculty Spotlight: Medical Assistant Program Chair Lisa Smith Sets the Bar High for Her Students
Posted by Staff Writer on June 12, 2014
Medical Assistant Program Chair Lisa Smith takes pride in directing her students at Minnesota School of Business-St. Cloud (MSB) in a practical, straight-forward manner toward their future careers. In fact, many of them would describe her as "no-nonsense."
"My goal is to help students become fluent in their skills and adaptable to different situations," Smith says. "That's the reality of the medical field."
Smith has had a lot of experience in that regard herself. Prior to her position at MSB, she worked in a supervisory role at two urgent care clinics where quick-thinking and problem-solving were necessary skills. It is this type of hands-on learning she emphasizes in her classes.
Smith knows that learning to multitask competently, and without thinking about it, can be stressful for students. But she also knows it is a major key in helping students gain confidence in themselves, a second important goal in her teaching.
"Seeing students struggle, whether for personal reasons or in the classroom, is a big challenge for me," she admits. "But the rewards of teaching are to see those same students complete the program, become certified and then placed in a job in their career path."
Smith's third goal in teaching is to assist students to grow in their community. "I think it is very important for them to reach out to others without the expectation of something in return. It enhances the well-being of both the giver and receiver."
Smith follows her own advice as an example. In her personal life, she volunteered for eight years for a woman suffering with multiple sclerosis, giving her injections and assisting with jobs around the house and yard. Currently she gives free horse riding lessons and serves as a mentor to a local boy. At MSB, she leads students in community engagement projects (both on and off campus) such as the Polar Plunge, the MESSAGE Program, Women's Health Fair 101 at Centra Care Health Systems, the Electrolux Health Fair, and MSB Spring into Health Fair. In addition, she is active as a presenter to area junior and senior high school students who are interested in the medical field as a potential career. Among her popular topics: "Grossology 101."
Outside of school, Smith indulges her passion for animals by competing in cow sorting (a timed event where teams of two riders separate cows into pens against the clock) and rodeo ranch riding.
Explaining her active pastime, Smith says, "I grew up in Little House on the Prairie. We heated with wood, which meant cutting wood and curing it for two years. Summers were for fieldwork and baling hay. I milked cows at 4 a.m. before school."
"But my mom had me show in Western Pleasure," (a competition at a slow gait, emphasizing manners) she adds, "which means to be girly, prim and proper. When she wasn't looking, I would teach the horse to rear and buck on command because I was bored. The more I did it, the more I wanted to compete."
Smith admits that part of the pull of competition for her is the sense of power and pleasure it gives.
"I've always felt a bit of the underdog," she reflects. "Winning the jackpot with a $600 horse against one that cost $40,000 is a kick."
Animals also take away the stress and anxiety that comes with daily life, she feels.
Whether leading students or in the ring, Smith is all in.

Make a tactical change
Paul Lambert is under no illusions about the size of the task facing Villa as they travel to Arsenal.
There have been a plethora of newspaper stories reporting the demise of the Gunners.
But Lambert is a huge fan of both the team and the manager.
Pundits have been snorting at successive defeats to Blackburn Rovers and Bayern Munich in the FA Cup and Champions League respectively and criticising Wenger's press conference demeanour.
But Lambert is having none of it!
The 42-year-old Villa boss speaks highly of Wenger's career credentials, hailing his record as "phenomenal, incredible and miraculous" and puts the losses - especially the Rovers one - down to the rich and unpredictable fabric of our beautiful game.
While those same pundits suggest it's the perfect time to meet the Gunners, Lambert believes Villa still head to The Emirates as "underdogs".
"They've only been beaten in two games. They've played one of the best teams in Europe and got beaten by Blackburn. Everyone can make a lot over two defeats and it is magnified because of the club they are.
"If you are beaten by Bayern, I don't think it is a major, major disgrace. Blackburn, I can see why that happens, but Bayern are a top side.
"The Bundesliga is a hell of a league, really powerful and strong. I think people are ignorant to it in this country. They don't realise the fan base it has got.
"I was fortunate enough to play there and it has not changed since my day.
"Every game is vast and the crowds are phenomenal. And Bayern Munich were fabulous.
"We will still be underdogs because they are still a top side. They are still a fabulous side and will no doubt be hurt by the criticism they have taken at the minute.
"The wounded animal is dangerous and they are top side with top players. We've seen it before so they probably know how to react. The criticism has been a bit much from what they should be getting.
"What Arsene has done for Arsenal over 16 years is incredible. It is miraculous. He and Sir Alex have been catalysts - look at what they have done, the longevity, the stability, they have won trophies.
"Arsenal reached the Champions League final when they played Barcelona. He has won the Premier League. He has won the FA Cup. He also went a full season without getting beat. What he's achieved is phenomenal."
Despite his lauding of the opposition, Lambert is firm in his resolution that Villa can come away from the capital with a good result.
He is eager for his team to play with a frisky ambition and scampering fervour but knows they will have to be tight at the back and steadfast too.
"You can't let them settle. You have to give them a game.
"We will have to play really well to get something down there.
"Going forward we are a threat but in terms of stopping them, it is a collective thing. It is not just the defence. It is the whole unit that we have to tighten up.
"We'll give it a go and get on the front foot down there. Benteke's in good form and his confidence is sky-high at the moment, Agbonlahor is fit again which is a bonus, Weimann and N'Zogbia are playing their part.
"Those four lads have been playing very well of late. They are a definite threat.
"We're going to have to put a right shift in too that's for sure. You don't get anything if you don't put a shift in.
"But we are playing with plenty of confidence."
Arsenal v Villa Barclays Premier League Saturday February 23 - KO 3pm Referee: Lee Mason

Charles N'Zogbia [thigh], Gabby Agbonlahor [bug] and Karim El Ahmadi [bug] are all fit to play.
Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna is out with a knee problem suffered during Tuesday's defeat by Bayern Munich.
Kieran Gibbs remains sidelined by a thigh injury but fellow left-back Nacho Monreal returns after being cup-tied in midweek.
Villa will be wearing their away kit of lime green.
Villa have twice won at Arsenal in their last four league trips.
Villa ended an eight-match winless streak with victory over West Ham last time out.
Christian Benteke has scored in each of Villa's last four Premier League matches.
There have been a league-high 51 goals at the Emirates Stadium this season.

Record prices of up to 80p a therm, a unit of gas, were recorded last week for the first time as industry players battled to buy gas to meet their needs for the first quarter of next year.
The price has more than doubled since this time last year and experts warned it could put severe pressure on consumers' bills while forcing some sections of industry to close if production became uneconomic.
British Gas warned last week that household bills could jump by 15 per cent because of the soaring wholesale price of gas.
Tom Crotty, chief executive of chemicals giant Ineos Chlor, said his company used as much power as a city the size of Liverpool and that price increases would hit his business hard and very quickly.
An extremely cold winter could cause swathes of industry to shut down, he said. 'If we have very low temperatures, we may not be able to afford the prices. It is a genuine issue. It is grim for us and the UK.'
Ineos is campaigning for Government intervention and has held meetings with both Energy Minister Malcolm Wicks and Trade and Industry Secretary Alan Johnson. 'We are banging on every door,' he said.
POLL: Should we be worried about our reliance on foreign gas suppliers?
The company is a member of the Energy Intensive Users' Group, which represents the biggest industrial players. Director Jeremy Nicholson said the price levels would do 'grave damage' to manufacturers. He warned that industry would suffer from a huge competitive disadvantage as gas prices were now the highest in Europe.
The price rises started last year when Britain become a net importer of gas for the first time. While the UK market is highly competitive, the Continent is divided between a small number of virtual monopolies that keep export prices high.
Britain does not have many routes to import gas, which means that domestic power suppliers are at the mercy of the major oil and gas companies that ship gas to the UK.
The Netherlands equivalent of the Financial Services Authority, the AFM, has told Royal Dutch/Shell that it has so far found no evidence of insider trading at the oil giant. The AFM launched an investigation when Shell announced last January that it had slashed four billion barrels of oil from its proven reserves. It is unclear when the inquiry will finish.

The widow of a Thames Water worker who was killed in a hit-and-run collision by a drunk driver has spoken of her devastating loss following the sentencing of the cabbie.
Paul Unthank, 43, was monitoring the flow of sewage in a cordoned-off area in Forest Gate last October 13 when he was hit by a speeding minicab driven by Sebastian Swiatek.
Swiatek was sentenced to seven-and-a-half years in prison on Friday. Colleagues of the father-of-three called for an ambulance but his injuries were too severe and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
The cab driver, who did not stop, called the police an hour later and claimed to have found his car that had been stolen and damaged.
Police did not believe his story and arrested him immediately. He was found to be two and a half times over the drink-drive limit. Swiatek subsequently pleaded guilty to causing death through careless driving.
Inner London crown court heard Mr Unthank, who was employed by Thames Water sub-contractor IETG, was a "hard-working, devoted man who lived for his children".
Mr Unthank's widow, Nicola, 39, from Ledbury, Herefordshire, now faces the prospect of having to raise their children Alice, nine, Freddie, eight, and Harry, six, on her own.
She has enlisted the help of injury and road collision expert Keith Barrett from law firm Irwin Mitchell to seek financial compensation from Swaitek's insurance company and to determine whether greater safety precautions should be taken to prevent similar tragedies.
Mrs Unthank said: "Paul's death has caused unimaginable pain for my three children and me. Not only have I lost my best friend and supporter, but my children have lost a wonderful role model too.
"We're pleased that the criminal trial has now concluded and justice done in that respect, but my family has been left struggling to come to terms with what has happened and struggling financially.
"We are heartbroken and only hope that by speaking out other drivers will consider the wider consequences of drinking and speeding when driving, before getting behind the wheel."
Mr Barrett added: "To lose a husband, father and friend in any circumstance is upsetting but to do so in such horrific, avoidable circumstances is heartbreaking.
"Not only was Mr Swiatek found to be over the drink-drive limit, but he was also speeding and didn't stop at the scene of the incident where a man lay with fatal injuries."

"Those markets are free to choose which posters to run, how, where and when. They may run in-store or as giant building wraps or wall paintings. The artwork is especially impressive on a massive scale." Both artists involved in the project — Parra, aka Pieter Janssen (see www.rockwellclothing.com and click here for his recent Creativity coverage), and Eline van Dam, aka Zeloot (www.zeloot.nl) — have plenty of funky, sexy and far-out art in their portfolios, yet this Heineken work, for the most part, has an almost wholesome quality, especially for beer advertising. Why? "In many markets, erotic imagery in alcohol advertising is all but banned," says Kelly, "so we try to avoid it." Moreover, "When one looks back at classic Heineken advertising signs and posters, they do have an innocence to them — the simple charm of a bygone era. We wanted to capture this feeling — it says a lot about the pedigree of the brand while adding a contemporary twist. Heineken was the only truly global beer back then and it still is today." This "Sweet Temptation" lead poster in the showcase is the work of Parra, who illustrated all the pieces in the PDF except "Between the Sheets" and "Devil's Secret."

When your GMC Sierra 1500 left the factory, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who wants longevity in their automobile. You picked your Sierra 1500 because its dependability and trusted quality struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for second best when it comes to superior quality auto parts? It's not all the time that you discover you need a replacement Brake Drum to fix your vehicle. GMC automobile drivers have become used to a certain level of reliability when driving their Sierra 1500 around town.
The ability to slow down and make quick evasive maneuvers is crucial to keeping you and your passengers safe. However, it took a couple of decades of automobile production until brake drums were invented. Your GMC Sierra 1500 brake drum is a large hollow cylinder, the interior surface of which the brake shoes press against to create the friction needed to slow down your vehicle. Drum brakes collect water in the bottom which can lead to slight inefficiencies, as well as become "out of round" because of the asymmetrical way the shoes apply friction to the inside when your GMC Sierra 1500 comes to a stop.
Get your Sierra 1500 back on the road with the best new or rebuilt parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Buying new GMC parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement Sierra 1500 parts on the internet. Need 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 Brake Drum parts? We've got them right here.

When I woke up the next morning, I was itching to do something. I was in a whole new school - a new world in fact, and I wanted to explore every bit of it.
I threw on my uniform, grabbed my wand and ran down my stairs to the common room. Kira and Liam was already there. Seeing them together made me feel jealous for some reason, but I pushed it aside as Kira smiled at me.
"Morning." she said brightly.
"Morning. Where's Willow?" I asked, looking round. "Is she still in bed?"
"She just ran past about ten minutes ago." Liam told me.
"We was going to go for some breakfast, want to come with us?" Kira asked me. I said yes, and we all left the common room. Students and teachers all passed us as we walked to the dining hall, and I soon bumped into Delilah.
"Hey can I have a minute, Henry?" she asked me.
"Yeah sure." I turned round to my new friends. "You guys go ahead, I'll catch you up later."
They waved and carried on outside.
"Henry, I know that you now know school doesn't start for a few days, but I want you to come to my room tomorrow morning for a little bit of training. Just to ease you into the kind of things you'll be studying. Is that okay?"
"Yeah sure, what time? And I don't know where your room is." I replied.
"Well meet me here at around half eleven. And don't worry, your not the only one. A few students are going to be seeing there guardians today or tomorrow. You can go now. Explore. Have fun." she smiled at me, and walked off down the corridor.
I waved after her, and walked into the dining hall. I saw Kira and Liam sat in one of the far tables and ran over.
"What did she want?" Kira asked me.
"I've got to go and meet her tomorrow, for some training. Something about 'easing my self into the type of things we'll be studying'."
"I never got that, when I started." Liam said frowning.
"I might go see my guardian, to see if I have to." Kira said. "Reckon that's where Willow was going to this morning?"
Before any one could answer, a girl sat down next to me. She looked really angry.
"I'm Dawn. Listen, pretend you know me." she hisses at us.
I was started to get annoyed. Who did this girl think she was?
"Why should we?" I asked her. She scowled at me and said. "Do it and I won't break anything!"
Just then another girl walked over.
"Dawn, I'm only trying to help you so you won't be alone." she said to her. I could tell why Dawn was getting angry, as this girl had a really irritating voice.
"I'm clearly not alone though. These are my friends, you can go away now!" Dawn snapped at her. I felt pretty sorry for the girl, as her face just dropped. Luckily Kira chipped in. I was beginning to like Kira more and more.
"Hi, I'm Kira. We met Dawn last night, so she's okay with us."
"Yeah we'll show her around, if she needs any help." Liam chipped in. I knew I should say something, but I thought why should I? This girl was rude, and there was no way I was helping her out.
The other girl seemed convinced though, as she smiled.
"Well, if your sure. See you later Dawn." and with that she walked over.
"Yeah right." I heard Dawn mumble next to me.

Starred Selection
Gr 5-9
Gerry, 14, and his parents are returning to the African savannah after six months in London when their plane crashes, killing the pilot. When Gerry resumes consciousness, he discovers that he has come to live in the body of a baboon that is part of the group that his biologist parents are researching. He uses his human intellect and powers of reason to ensure his survival and growing acceptance by the troop; he also documents his gradual loss of his ability to count and read and track the passing days. After eight months as a baboon, a terrifying incident with a leopard triggers the teen's re-entry into his own body. The author soundly grounds his novel in accurate scientific detail about baboons. In spite of the less-than-satisfying ending in which doctors attempt to convince Gerry that he dreamed the entire experience while he was in a coma, readers craving adventure and nature-based drama will find this an engrossing follow-up to Gary Paulsen's Hatchet (S & S, 1987) and a logical introduction to Peter Dickinson's Eva (Delacorte, 1989).

Read an Excerpt
Excerpted from Chapter 1
He watched a drop of water crawl up the window and dribble away, carried on the plane's slipstream. Gerry pressed his cheek to the plastic, trying to see what lay in their flight path. Ahead, anvils of cloud massed on the horizon. Lightning stabbed earthward from one of them and Gerry counted off the seconds to the thunderclap. One, one thousand... two, one thousand... three, one thousand... and then a drumroll of thunder. Only four miles now. They were still heading into the storm.
He looked across the aisle and saw his parents at their windows. Their attention was fixed on the grassland rolling below them. The pilot banked into a turn to give them a better view and Gerry caught himself gripping the arms of his seat.
"We're not going to see anything in this weather," said his mother. "I'm sure they've all taken shelter." She was talking about the troop, of course: the baboons his parents had been studying for close to three years now. The plane rolled back into level flight.
Gerry and his parents were flying back to their camp after a trip to Arusha to pick up supplies and check their e-mail. Even during that short trip, Gerry had heard his mother say more than once that she missed the troop. She wondered aloud how Zeus was doing. Was Mavis's daughter all right? Was Oscar still nursing? Had Hector's tail healed? His father would put an arm around her and try to reassure her. "They'll be fine," he said. "They managed before we ever began watching them and they'll manage long after we've stopped."
But Gerry sometimes thought his mother believed that only her constant fretting kept the troop well. His father was quieter about it, but neither of them could wait to return to camp where making field notes on baboon behavior would be their sole occupation --
that and Gerry's schooling, a task they shared during the months they all lived in the field.
To tell the truth, he was relieved to be out of school for half the year. He didn't mind the classes, but in the hallways and on the playing field he had to face the fact that he was something of a runt. Just keeping up during the lunchhour soccer games was getting harder and harder as the players around him metamorphosed into giants. "You'll shoot up," his father told him. Easy for him to say. Gerry had seen pictures of his father as a child. He guessed he had been the only elementary school student with a five o'clock shadow. No wonder he felt a special kinship with the hairier primates.
His mother crossed the aisle and kneeled in the seat in front of Gerry. She draped her elbows over the seatback and studied him.
"You all right?" she asked.
"Going to miss the big city?"
"The big city Arusha? Or London?"
"I hadn't even thought of Arusha. We were only there two days. You missing that, too?"
"I already kind of miss plumbing. And television. The Internet. Restaurants --"
"Oh, and there's something wrong with my cooking?"
"No. But it's not like I can just order whatever I want."
"You've got that right."
"Anyway, I don't know why you're asking. It's not like if I say 'yes' we're going to turn around and go home."
"You know, there'll come a time when you look back on these days --"
"I know: the best three years of my life."
His mother sighed. "You've got us all figured out, haven't you?"
What's to figure out? he thought. The most important thing in the world to you is a bunch of monkeys. There's nothing wrong with that. Really. There are worse things someone could devote their life to. But did you ever think I might not feel the same way?
She returned to her seat on the other side of the cabin. A bright flash and a crack of thunder brought Gerry back to the task at hand, which was keeping the Shorts Skyvan flying. He didn't think of himself as a nervous flyer; it was just something that had to be done. Their pilot, Stan, seemed entirely too relaxed a man for the job and his parents had the troop to worry about. That left only Gerry to keep the groaning forty-year-old boxcar in the air. Clutching it by the armrests and pulling upward seemed to be working nicely, but who knew how long that was going to last?
There were only three rows of three seats, just behind the cockpit. On his parents' side of the cabin were two seats per row, on Gerry's, only one. Stan had salvaged them from a commercial airliner and bolted them to the deck of the Skyvan. They looked strangely out of place here, with their fold-down trays and headphone sockets.
He was grateful that he and his parents were the only passengers aboard. Even so, they felt heavier than they had on the flight out. Probably all that rich restaurant food in Arusha. That, and a small front-end loader called a Bobcat, about a ton of drilling machinery, and a stack of core boxes all filling the rear of the plane's boxy interior. Gerry guessed that the equipment was on its way to a mining camp somewhere.
He wished they were back in the city. Even another night in Arusha would be welcome. In the lineup to see a movie, a girl had waited ahead of him. He had stood right behind her, only inches away, pretending his parents were strangers. He would have said something to her if they hadn't been there. That, and if he had the slightest idea of how to start a conversation with a girl. "Hello. I couldn't help but notice that you speak English. I, too, speak English..."
Crickets chirping.
"...whenever I can think of something to say."
But all he could think of was how easy it was for males in the troop: picking your way through the grass, looking for roots, you work your way toward her. At the right moment, casually start grooming the back of her head. No need for small talk. The only reason to open your mouth is to pop in anything you find crawling through her fur. Hair.
"You're losing it, Gerry," was what his friend Milton would have said. "Out there in the jungle. It's only a matter of time."
"It's not the jungle," said Gerry. "It's the veldt."
"The what?"
"The veldt. Savanna. Grassland. It's sort of like a lawn nobody's mowed for a million years."
"Whatever. It's still the middle of nowhere. Living in a tent is not normal. You're growing up weird."
Milton's e-mails were full of such dire pronouncements -- if not about their own futures, then the world at large. Global warming. Overfishing. Industrial growth in China. Rogue asteroids. Gerry's father referred to Milton as the world's grimmest thirteen-year-old. It was hard to imagine a place safer than Croydon, a comfortable suburb of London. But for Milton it was a cliff, and they were all teetering on the edge. He was right about one thing, though: living in a tent for months on end with only his parents and a troop of baboons for company wasn't exactly normal. But then, how normal was living in Croydon for the other half of the year and walking to school each morning with the prophet of doom?
Gerry missed those walks, and he liked to think that Milton missed them, too. Milton might have been glum, but they always ended up laughing about it -- okay, Gerry always ended up laughing about it. Exchanging e-mails in a library or an Internet café every six weeks was no substitute for having a friend who was just two doors down the street, always there, ready to remind you that no matter how bad things might be now, in the end, they would be even worse.
The plane bucked beneath them and all three passengers grabbed their seats before they settled again into level flight. Mind on the plane, thought Gerry.
"Sorry, folks," said the pilot.

Without Hasselbeck, the Seahawks were forced to go with backups Charlie Frye and Seneca Wallace under center. Frye went out with an injury of his own while Wallace has performed admirably during his time on the field. Nonetheless, Seattle has managed only 260 yards per game of total offense, including just 145 yards per contest through the air.
The Seahawks revamped their backfield last offseason and have been surprisingly effective even without the presence of a consistent signal caller. As a team, Seattle is averaging 4.4 yards per carry and has fumbled only once this season. RB Julius Jones leads the team in rushing, carrying the ball 129 times for 597 yards and two touchdowns. Goal-line specialist T.J. Duckett has done an excellent job near the end zone, as he's reached pay dirt four times on just 39 carries.
Bobby Engram & Deion Branch
On defense, the Seahawks are allowing a robust 372 yards per outing and have been torched in the secondary giving up 252 yards per game through the air. Seattle has only four interceptions on the season and is currently tied for last in the NFL with eight forced turnovers through their first nine games.
Despite their struggles, the Seahawks' defense is led by a tremendous linebacking group consisting of Lofa Tatupu, Julian Peterson and Leroy Hill. Tatupu remains the heart-and-soul of Seattle's defense but Hill leads the team with 77 tackles and six tackles for a loss. DE Patrick Kerney has wreaked havoc on QB Kurt Warner and the Cardinals' offensive line during recent matchups, but he's missed the Seahawks last two games due to a shoulder injury.
Seattle boasts an excellent return game with Josh Wilson returning kickoffs and Justin Forsett as the team's primary punt returner. Wilson has racked up 891 kickoff return yards and is averaging 25.5 yards per return. Meanwhile, Forsett has returned 13 punts for 139 yards, good for a 10.7-yard average.

Since upgrading to version 5.1 we're finding that each time someone responds to an email, Spiceworks is picking up all the content of that message (the whole conversation history including signatures etc) and dumping it all in to the ticket, for every reply that is sent.
To the best of my knowledge, I don't think it did this previously; is there any way we can specify that Spiceworks only pick-up part of an emails body, not the entire history of that conversation?

"He's committed to leading that group through these tough times," Tomlin said.
Did he give Foster a "C" for his jersey?
"Huh?!" Foster said, bewildered that another change might've taken place with the 0-3 Steelers.
Of course, the veteran left guard wasn't named captain in place of injured captain Maurkice Pouncey, but he's acting like one.
"When I came here," Foster said, "those guys were raised under (Alan) Faneca and Marvel (Smith) and guys like that. They were mean guys. Before Willie (Colon) left, Willie said, 'The room is how it is when I got here. Keep it that way no matter what.' So that's my obligation to him, the guys before me. Even after I'm gone, it should be known the Pittsburgh Steelers are a dirty, nasty line -- within the rules. I think we got a little bit away with that with certain stuff but we've got to re-establish it. We can't just put on our pads no more.
"That's what I met with (Tomlin) about and got to an understanding of how I'm going to push certain guys and how I'm going to play. It was more of me assuring him we were going to be good in that fact. We've been called out way too much already. It's all about getting it done at this point, and I'm letting him know the certain way that I'm going to lead, and he's OK with that."
Foster didn't want to get into details, other than to say his linemates aren't playing as fast as they can -- or will -- play when they gain needed experience and thus confidence.
"That's the thing," Foster said. "When you lose you kind of don't want to do anything that will cause you to lose by getting a 15-yard penalty. Winning will change that and I think we've got the guys with the mentality that are able to do that, too, and push the guys the way they need to be pushed and get a win overseas, and then come back and keep stacking them."
One way Tomlin tried to get the young tackles -- Mike Adams and Marcus Gilbert -- to respond was by rotating back-up Kelvin Beachum into the line for a couples series on each side. Adams said the team knew the rotation was in the game plan. Gilbert said he hopes it never is again.
"It kind of lights a fire up underneath you," Gilbert said. "Obviously it's not something I was too happy about, but as long as I'm improving and we're getting better, that's all that matters."
Gilbert doesn't expect the rotation to continue this week in London, where the Steelers play the 0-3 Minnesota Vikings. But he does expect to add some "nasty" to his game.
"We're trying to be so perfect, assignment-wise, that we're not going out there and being as aggressive as you can," he said. "I don't think that we're playing at a fast, or high, level, 100-percent full speed that we're capable of. I think we just have to forget about that and go out there and play football, get back to what we're used to doing, especially here.
"It's always been known for years that Pitsburgh Steelers offensive linemen are nasty, a good-running football team. We have to get back to those days, just to prove it. We got better last week and we're going to get better this week and get this win."
Another problem, Gilbert admitted, has been the communication since Pouncey went down.
"Sometimes we did; sometimes we just didn't put it all together," Gilbert said. "It'll get better this week."
NOTES -- Cornerback Cortez Allen returned to practice after missing two games with an ankle injury and said William Gay moved back inside to the nickel cornerback spot. ... Defensive end Brett Keisel (hamstring) missed Wednesday's practice but expects to play Sunday.
