The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the cars, trucks, and SUVs these days. When your Porsche 928 left the factory, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who values the tip of the spear in sport in their automobile. You picked your 928 because its German engineering and the tip of the spear in sport struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for second best when it comes to the highest quality auto parts? While it may not be difficult to buy replacement parts for Porsche vehicles, these days only the highest quality are required to fix your car or truck.
As a Porsche 928 driver, you know the importance of quality engine intake parts. Your modern fuel-injection system relies on the Porsche 928 mass air flow sensor to measure the volume and density of the air traveling through the intake. Your engine control module uses those observations and calculates an optimum amount of fuel to be injected into the combustion chamber. That means that the highest power output and best fuel economy are being achieved by your car or truck.
Given all the trouble that can be involved with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make buying it easy. When your Porsche needs a top quality replacement Mass Air Flow MAF Sensor, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. All the Porsche 928 Mass Air Flow MAF Sensor parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 1986, 1985, 1984, 1983, 1982, 1981, 1980. Choose your year below to refine your search.

AMD's chosen path for the next year
Subject: Processors | November 17, 2005 - 12:05 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
The Register has a look at AMD's roadmap for the upcoming year, and spots things like L3 cache, DDR2 and and Pacifica.
"Hester also pointed to chipsets containing L3 cache, which also harks back to Ruiz' April
prognostications - he too hinted AMD might one day return to the chipset market.

X-bit Labs wanted to know if you really need a 2+Ghz A64 as a minimum for the newest games. If the CPU is really slowing down the performance of the graphics card, will a top of the line FX chip do anything noticable to the performance? They took 13 chips, a spread between Intel and AMD, both top of the line, and bottom of the barrel, and benchmarked at high quality. This is part 2, part one is just below, and involves 28 CPU's at various qualities.

ExtremeTech takes on a daunting task in this CPU review on performance versus cost. It covers quite a few AMD and Intel chips, and puts them to work on a lot of different benchmarks. There are even some odd surprises, like the 3700+.

DigiTimes is reporting that AMD has cut prices on their Turion 64 processors. Their chart shows the classic "Trickle-Down" effect in pricing with the ML-40 now priced like a ML-37, the ML-37 priced like a ML-32 etc. AMD's Turion 64 laptops are gaining momentum in the market and these price cuts will certainly help.

Captured. (Destiny)
I rode Moonlight quickly through the forest. Upon arriving at the castle, I tied her to a branch next to some grass before bothering the guards to let me in. When they did, I went all the way to my old castle room, the one I had stayed in while I had been working for the King. I pulled a few things out of a box in the closet and put them in my bag. It was mostly just knick knacks, but hey! What else was I supposed to grab? As I walked out of the room, a guard suddenly grabbed me and knocked me out.
Hours later, I woke up in a tower. Trying to stand up, I found my hands had been tied behind my back. They should know better than try to keep a forest girl on the floor. I shifted around until I managed to stand up. When I opened my mouth, I found I had been gagged. Alright. First reaction: Scream. That's a classic. Second reaction: slam against the door. Also a classic. Third reaction: Look around the room. Fourth reaction: Wait patiently for captors to arrive. I'll go to the fourth and third reactions, just to surprise them. I started to look around the room. Walking over to the window, I looked out. I could tell I was in the castle's tallest tower--the highest room too. What's with kings and locking away innocent girls in the highest room in the tallest tower anyways? Well, I had to be there for a reason, and I was about to find out what that reason was. The door opened and King Reagal stepped inside.

383 parts
Hey guys,
I think I have scored on a deal. Well, I hope so, because Ive already bought them.
I am looking put together a 383 stroker motor to put into my 72 Chevelle.
So I was looking on craigslist for various parts for the motor.
And I found a aftermarket 383 crankshaft, a brand new balanced flywheel, brand new externally balanced harmonic balancer, procomp motorsports 6" connecting rods, Keith Black Claimer flat top pistons. All for 400 bucks.
When I met the guy, he defiantly knew what he was talking about. And I told him what I was planning on doing.
I have the 350 block already. So Im taking all the parts to the machine shop on Sunday to have the block work done, and also have them put the internals together because Im not too comfortable doing myself.
So what does everyone think?
I was also looking for suggestions on a cam. To be perfectly honest, Im looking for a bad *** street stroker motor. I think Im off to a good start.
After the machine work, all ill need is a set of AFR heads and Ill be set.
What are you guys thoughts? good or bad, do tell.
What's your rear gear? Need to know your crusing rpm, and comp. ratio for a cam suggestion. Is going to be with an auto or manual trans?
What brand of aftermarket crank? Some may not need external balanced dampner if using 6" rods. What is the compression height of the pistons? Usually 1.56" or 1.54" for stock if I'm not mistaken, but for 6" rods it needs to be around 1.125"-1.130" if using a 3.75" stroke crank. Makes a difference on your compression ratio and wether or not to deck the block for prefered "squish". The oil ring groove usually intersects the piston pin hole if the pistons are for 6" rods FWIW.
Have the rods got ARP bolts? I heard Pro Comp rods need to be resized out of the box, but thats just what I've seen on the internet, but it was often and by persons that were professionals. Might be a good idea to have the shop check them out?
A brand new balanced flywheel seems odd for an unbalanced dampner? I've heard of it being the other way around say for a one piece RMS engine, but I could be misstaken. Are you going to have the rotating assy balanced?
Are you using a one piece RMS block? Do you plan on using a roller cam?
Sure would be nice to have a machine shop around here open on Sunday.
Not trying to be a pita, but you asked.
start with the heads and head flow,power is in the breathing.Cam will match the heads better than the gears.
decide on an end result and we can match the parts to get you there
You can also see "Skip White Performance" for your 383 parts, he's on ebay but has a nice speed shop. I've heard lots of good things about his company.
I have the exact same parts. But all my parts are Keith Black. I scored mine for $450. I researched and I bought them seperately it would e aroung $1500-1700.
383 Stroker HP Estimate and build
Hey All,
I am in the process of building a 383 stroker. Well, my motor guy is helping... anyway. Here is the specs
-350 block, bored .40 over.
-SCAT 375 aftermarket crank. Made for a stroker.
-Keith Black Claimer flat top pistons .40 over with 2 valve relief.
-procomp motorsports 6" connecting rods, I beam
-Lunati roller Cam and lifters. 242 duration, dont have all the specs on me right now..
-Dart SHP Aluminum 200cc Heads - Hand built with large springs, 10 deg hardware including 7/16" arp studs and guide plates as well as performance valves runs, Ferrea Stainless performance valves
-Holley DP 650
-RPM Performer air gap intake manifold.
-Long tube headers, 1 3/4 I believe.
Can anyone estimate a HP range. After all this i wont have alot of cash to dyno it. But an estimation would be nice.
Yea having a machine shop open in sundays is pretty nice. It is "appointment only"
I pretty much have him helping me/guiding me throught the parts process. Im pretty good with the top half of the motor. but the internals are out of my league. I just dont have the knowledge.
Ill keep everyone posted as I go.
I would guess over 440 and Im sure you were going to use a 750 cfm carb?
By your sarcasm, I would say.....yes. haha.
If a new one is needed, then i guess im out of packet another 500.
Would it best to get something bigger then a 750?
A 383 build using those parts should yield 400~450 HP. On my 383 build I went a different route, I wanted as much torque as low in the rpm band as possible. I dyno on a regular basis, my engine pulled 320 HP @ 4050 and 516 lb/ft @ 2800. Great for an RV or tow truck, but a real hoot in a 1790 lb Track-T with a 5 speed stick.
I could imagine...
A 5 speed would be nice. But that would be the next project.
383 carb
I use a 950 on my engine.a 650 cant move enough air with a standard type camshaft to make much over 425 HP.
That cam you picked sounds like a 57-6,000 RPM cam,depending on ICL and LDA?
My car also uses an open plenum intake,I like mid range power more than off idle,different from that other fellas.
I too use a 5 speed,,,
I was kidding about the sarcasm. But i guess your probably right about the air movement. The heads that I am getting also offer a port job for a couple extra dollars. So it would make sense to get a bigger carb...
What type of 5 speed are you using? I am looking for options and best case scenario. The car is a 72 chevelle...
I bought a brand new TKO 600. I ordered the .82 over drive. If you drag race,you might want the .68 overdrive depending on the rear axle ratio you use.The TKO/scattershield/shifter came to 3k. I also bought a lighter sfi approved steel flywheel.I use a diaphragm style clutch.

I'm an Ambivalent Parent, Hear Me Roar...in Humorous Monologues at Cobb's Tonight.
Carol Brady and June Cleaver made motherhood look like a snap. An easy as homemade pie, wholly satisfying and utterly instinctual snap. But the adult survivors of TV-land's faux maternal perfection have made a cottage industry of kvetching, griping, sharing and obsessing. Mommy-blogging and mommy lit and maternal bitching are all the rage and the latest incarnation of "I'm an ambivalent parent here me roar" is the live storytelling series called Afterbirth and its tonight, one night only at Cobb's Comedy Club.
These, we're told, are stories you won't read in a Parenting Magazine.
Having played to sold out audiences for two years in Los Angeles, the show now pops up now and again in LA and New York and tonight at Cobbs where the performers include writers and TV folk, such as the producers of "Sex and the City", "Grey's Anatomy" and "Everybody Loves Raymond" and Bay Area author Ayelet Waldman ( "Bad Mother), Peter Horton (actor "In Treatment," "Thirtysomething," and executive producer of "Grey's Anatomy") among others. The show will also be performed in Santa Cruz tomorrow night. And if you can't make these, a book collection of these stories was just released.

Inside the Windows Insider Program
Hi Bill
Thanks for the very interesting presentation! A couple of thoughts:
- Please don't use averages for latencies. Please use percentiles. Search for "gil tene latency" if you don't know what I'm talking about.
- While the Insider program works great for some things, it doesn't work for some others. I often feel that my detailed feedback is overwhelmed by 14'583 people shouting "KAITICHIZTAN NEEDS OFFLINE MAPS!!!1!!!" and things like that. Do you consider the long tail of feedback? It sometimes feels that no one pays attention to feedback with few upvotes.
- Recent builds have very few BSODs and crashes. On the other hand, "brownouts" ("Resuming..." forever on mobile builds, broken rendering on desktop, broken scaling on desktop, lack of UI polish, ...) appear to happen more often. There are soo many issues that I wouldn't know where to start reporting. Do you have ideas on how to address this problem?
- I hope that you don't treat the feedback from all users the same. Some users put much more effort into good bug reports than others.
Design Scale-Out File Server Clusters in the Next Release of Windows Server
I'm really looking forward to Shared Nothing Storage Spaces. With the addition of rebalancing it looks like the perfect solution.
I think one of the last questions was misunderstood. I believe the question was: Why would anyone deploy "traditional" storage spaces when Shared Nothing Storage Spaces will become available? (i.e. "What are the disadvantages of SNSS compared to traditional SS?")

Wow, thanks for discussing my question ("[09:53] Surface Type Cover is touchy")!
The weird thing is that we're all having this problem with different keyboards (Touch- and Type Cover). So far I haven't met a single person that hasn't had this problem. All updates, including optional, are installed. Anand Lal Shimpi even mentioned the problem in his recent review of the Surface Pro 3:
"There are also times when the keyboard and/or trackpad will stop responding. In some situations only certain aspects of the Type Cover won't work. For example right now I can't seem to get two finger scrolling or any other trackpad gestures to work. This is a problem I've seen on every single Surface since its release, although the problem itself seems to have gotten better over the years. Thankfully unlike previous implementations, detaching/reattaching the cover is usually enough to fix things."

In the end it seems that we have to live with this part of the Surface experience...

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Hi all, I read a book last week(don't know if I can name it so I won't) about a chap who said he couldn't swim, ride or run, I think he hangs around here sometimes.
Anyway it inspired me because I cant do any of those things either, well actually I can just not very well. So I decided to have a go myself. I've just signed up to the local gym and am looking forward to getting started. I'm posting here as a way of recording my progress and hopefully getting to chat to like minded people.
Just as a side note I mentioned my enthusiasm to a work colleague and after he stopped smirking he asked if I was going to be an Ironman, yes I said. O god.......
Andy's on here - his name's "IronHolgs" -you'll normally find him on "fatman to ironman" or some of the pirate threads.
I found his book really inspiring too - it really reminded me how anyone can do it - they just need the determination to do it!
Well hopefully I'll get to thank Andy one day on giving me the push I needed to get started, and anyone else I encounter along the way.
I've also read that book and thought it was a great read and very inspiring also.
Which book is it? It sounds just the thing I need right now?
Hi Ickle Legs, its called Can't swim, can't ride, Can't run. Andy Holgate (Ironholgs) the chap that wrote it posts on the forums here. I thought it was a great read

|[jira] [Commented] (LANG-702) New component for lang -- summarizer
|Sun, 29 May 2011 18:08:47 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-702?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13040842#comment-13040842 ] Matt Benson commented on LANG-702: ---------------------------------- This looks like a nice little set of classes to me, and yes, not wholly unlike some of the things we have in [lang]. On the other hand, the "customizable summation strategy" aspect of this makes me think of a redesigned version that could live in the [functor] component (which is still in the sandbox, but is really about ready to graduate). What is the typical pattern for making use of the {{.get()}} results? I would have expected to see e.g. {{onFlush(callback)}} which would allow the summarizer to take some action on each timed flush operation. A redesign in [functor] could specify {{onFlush(UnaryProcedure<T>)}} for this. Also, the subclassing aspect would be unnecessary in [functor] because the 'summation' could be supplied externally in the form of a {{BinaryFunction<? super T, ? super T, ? extends T>}}. IMO removing the subclassing necessity would be quite cool, and I would add such a rewritten version of this to [functor] in a second. Regards, Matt > New component for lang -- summarizer > ------------------------------------ > > Key: LANG-702 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-702 > Project: Commons Lang > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: General > Affects Versions: 3.0 > Reporter: Liviu Tudor > Priority: Minor > Labels: features, newbie > Fix For: 3.x > > Attachments: patch_summarizer.diff > > > Hi, I'm creating this as a patch request but I guess really initially I wanted to verify with everyone that commons lang is the place for this class hierarchy I'm proposing -- and if not please suggest whether it would be more appropriate to submit this to collections or one of the other Commons projects. (Or I accept as well the fact that it might not be good enough for any of the commons projects in which case please just let me know so I won't try to create new issues around this in the future.) > Basically I've come across a pattern I find myself using a lot in my applications where I want a quick (and not so dirty) way of monitoring certain things in the application -- for instance, I want as a quick healthcheck a page to tell me how many requests we process over a 1 minute interval or so. While one can implement complex monitoring systems to achieve the same, a lot of the times, simply the fact that the number of successful transactions per minute goes down to 50% (after an application upgrade for instance) is a clear indicator to me that something isn't right so I can start investigating straight away and not wait for our monitoring systems to kick in one hour later or so and alert us of this. As such I have developed this component which I have called "Summarizer" (purely as my initial request was just to sum up some numbers over a period of time and reset it regularly -- but as my javadoc comments state, of course this doesn't have to be a simple arithmetic sum and can be extended to other operations). The diff I'm proposing here contains the base class and an example of the class using integers which just sums them up -- which is as I said the kind of implementation that I have found myself implementing a lot in my apps. I appreciate that the classes are not completely finished and there are no unit tests yet -- and that is because as I said at this stage I am trying to figure out whether this component would fit into the Commons Lang component or it would be more appropriate to commit this somewhere else. > I would appreciate your input/comments on this so I know whether i'm on the right track on committing this here or should I move it elsewhere; I accept that perhaps the package names and the class names are not the best, and am willing to discuss with your main committers around this -- if this proves to be a valid component for commons. > If you decide this is a good idea to proceed with then I can start adding unit tests and more comments/javadocs around it to make this into a usable class hierarchy. > As suggested by your FAQ's I've created a diff from the root of the folder -- if it helps more if I just provide the 2 classes I can do so too -- just let me know and I can send you a zip with the 2 classes alone or so. > Looking forward to your comments on this, > Liv -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

Just Say Please
They ate in silence chewing on the sandwiches Macy had packed for them. After the food was gone, Grace sat in front of the fire. She watched sparks fly away and licks of flame dance about trying to out do each other. Grace watched them in a hypnotic trance. The reds and blues were reflecting off her own dark eyes.
"Grace?" Josh placed one hand gently on her shoulder, and she looked away from the entrancing fire.
"We have to be heading off now," he took her hands in his and lifted her up so that she was standing on her own two feet and couldn't look into the fire anymore. She nodded and bent down to grab her bag. It felt lighter than it had before and not just because she had eaten some of the food weighing it down. Josh groaned as he lifted up his pack. His looked fuller than before but that could just have been her imagination.
"Which way?" Grace looked around her; every direction seemed the same as the others,
"That way," Josh pointed to the gap in the trees ahead of them.
"How do you know that?" Josh reached into his pocket and pulled out a compass. He waved it at her and smiled then he put it back and gestured to her to start walking.
"You know when you wave your head like that, you look like a chicken," she teased.
"Really?" Josh stopped walking and looked at her, "Well you know what this means don't you?" she shook her head in reply, "Chicken boy attack!" Josh slipped his pack off his back and ran toward Grace. She dropped her bag and began to run, weaving in between trees trying to hide while shaking with laughter,
"Chicken boy is going to find you," he called out not far off. Laughing she doubled back in the hope that she could ambush him. She got to the site where they had dropped their bags but he wasn't there. She began to look around and Josh jumped out of one of the trees above her. She screamed in fright then tried to run but he was quicker and grabbed her middle.
"Yes! Chicken boy has won! Fear me!" he cried laughing. She squirmed trying to escape but he held onto her tight,
"Stop! Please stop I give. Chicken boy has won, now let go of me!" he released her and grabbed his bag, breathlessly he spoke
"Where did you drop bag?"
Grace looked around. She remembered dropping it not far from Josh's but it was nowhere to be seen. On the ground not far from Josh's bag was a dent in the soft moss. Grace looked at it and realised it was where her bag had been.
"Damn. Where is it?"
"A princess shouldn't cuss you know,"
"I don't care. Now where is my damn bag?!"
"How should I know," proclaimed Josh ignited.
"Whoa calm down. I was just asking,"
"No you weren't. You were yelling. Like it was my fault or something," Josh spoke like Grace's snapping had upset him.
"I'm sorry. I just don't want to have to go back to the farmhouse because I lost my bag one day into the trip." Her tone didn't sound sorry but when Josh looked into her eyes he saw that she was.
"Well. We better start looking for it, hadn't we?"
They started in the spot where Josh's bag had been and walked out. It wasn't nearby, so they started to walk further out, expanding out in a circle. When they got past the first row of trees it was still no where to be found. Josh crouched down amongst the mossy ground looking for any signs of the bag. He saw tiny almost invisible foot prints stretching across the forest floor like someone had been running incredibly fast through the forest. The prints seemed to travel quite far on.
"Grace. I found footprints." he whispered not sure if anyone was around. "Follow me." Grace grabbed his bag for him as he kept his nose close to the ground trying not to lose the little indents in the moss. Luckily the trail only went in one direction, straight ahead. There were no twists or turns. No loops or back tracking to confuse him. The trail stood abruptly at the foot of a tall oak tree. It reached the sky and beyond. And wrapped around one of the roots was Grace's bag.
"My bag!" she reached down to grabbed it but the straps were wrapped around under the root like the tree had grown through and over the straps and there was no way of untying it.
"Damn. What kind of person does that?"
"A Fairy."
"But we are miles from the centre of the forest. Why would a fairy steal my bag?"
"They don't all live in the centre and they probably don't know who you are"
"You're being serious?" She looked around uneasily.
"Yeah. We need to be careful." Josh looked at her bag. "Fairies can be awfully tricky creatures."
"Well what are we going to do about my bag? I kinda need it!" Grace's voice cracked as she began to panic.
"Just say please."

Continued Education
Gabriel's days continued like this, weapons training in the morning and more training with the stones at night for a whole year. Master Lear spent most of the training teaching him about balance and motion, not about the weapons themselves. If Gabriel asked, he got the same answer he always got, in due time. He worked hard to master the exercises that Lear taught him, hoping that one day, the time would be now. His education with Father Meinos went quite the same. He had spent weeks learning about how to master and control the fire, and how to put it out without draining him.
He had learned about the cost of using the stones after the first few days.
Father Meinos had left Gabriel practicing with the fire and water stones. What he was doing inside, Gabriel did not know, but so long as he continued practicing, the Father did not mind. He had gotten up early one day and gone out with the kids to get the hay with them. He offered to help them if they brought an extra bale of hay to the Rectory. He ended up hefting all five bales on to the wagon, and helping pull on the second trip, which they brought three bales to the stable on. It had paid off though.
That afternoon, after Father Meinos had left him to his practicing, Gabriel dragged the extra bale of hay into the fire pit, and concentrating, struck the two fire stones together. With an audible whoosh, the bale had become ash almost instantly, but the fire had caught his robes on fire. Panicking, he had screamed and Father Meinos had come running. Amongst shouts of "You idiot," and "Stupid," they managed to get the fire out without too much harm to Gabriel. Afterwards, Gabriel had felt extremely tired, and when he commented on this fact to Father Meinos, he had been told that the stones drew their energy from their bearer.
The next day, Lear woke him up extra early and had him muck out the stables as punishment. This had tired him out even more. On top of that, as an extra punishment, Lear had pushed him extra hard in his balance training, having him wear chain mail armor for the first time.
The mail was a little too large and fairly heavy. Lear had needed to help him put it on, and once it was on, it was a struggle to stand up. Lear started that morning with an exercise meant to improve his agility.
"Dodge these," he said as he lifted a large leather-bound ball and threw it at Gabriel. Gabriel had no time to move and the ball caught him square in the chest, knocking the wind out of him. "Come on, you can do better than that."
Gabriel got up and was moving before the ball was even in the air. It still clipped his shoulder, the mail dampening some of the impact.
"You are getting there, get moving." Another ball flew, hitting him in the legs and knocking him to the ground, face first. "If you are going to keep falling, maybe we need to get you a helmet!" Lear taunted.
Gabriel stood up slowly, sore and worn out and managed to dive out of the way before the next ball came.
"Good. Go ahead and get out of that armor. You're done for the day, at least with me."
He had gone to visit with Priest Varin, the temple's doctor, who had told him in no uncertain terms that he was lucky that the bruises were the only punishment he had received.
"But, between you and me," he added, "every Paladin I have ever seen trained does it." A sly grin crossed his face. "You know, the last one that Lear trained almost burned down the temple. He had been trying to help out the boys in the kitchen, so he created a torch for them to carry around. As he was bringing it to them, he ran into the baker and dropped it out of sheer fright. They had to replace two of the support beams in the back of the kitchen because of him."
"What did they do to him?" Gabriel asked cautiously.
"Oh, he got the same leather ball treatment that you did, but they made him wear plate armor!" Varin was grinning from ear to ear as he told Gabriel to run along.
After having left the infirmary, Gabriel headed to the Rectory, intent on apologizing to Father Meinos. As he approached, he could hear three voices coming from the courtyard he normally practiced in.
"Of course he is reckless, he's just a boy!" Cailin was saying.
"You had the same problems with Renault ten years ago Meinos, at least Gabriel had the sense to mess around out doors." This came from Lear.
"Yeah, but still, he is very unsure of himself. A Paladin needs confidence." Meinos responded.
"What do you mean?" Lear asked.
"Well, he is still working with the fire stones first off." Meinos said.
Gabriel stood still and was silent as could be as he reached into his pouch and withdrew one of the air stones. Silently he concentrated on causing the air to stir enough that a loose log on the pile in the courtyard would fall off. He was reward when he heard the thud of the piece of wood falling to the ground.
"Are you sure about that?" Cailin asked.
"He has yet to ask, or show any kind of interests in the other stones."
"Well, have you given him any other directive than working with the fire stones? It sounds like he is just following orders. He is a stubborn sort, just the kind we want for a Paladin." Lear stated.
"Why do I have to be a Paladin?" Interjected Gabriel.

Chapter 3 - Presidency
"So tell me again," 'call me Ian' said for what seemed to be the hundredth time, "why are you not freaking out?"
"Look," I sighed loudly in annoyance, "I'd be more surprised or weirded out if my parents were nice to me." I rolled my eyes; if he asked me that question one more time, I would have to contemplate strangling him.
"Well okay, but seriously now," his voice changing from being incredulous to businesslike, "I'm going to have to ask you to come with me, so I can get you homed with someone nice."
I went wide-eyed. "No. I'm - I'm seventeen, I don't need foster parents. I can look after myself!" He evidently wasn't ready for my response, and I was NOT going down without a fight.
"I'm sorry Amelia-" I interrupted him.
"A-m-y," I said slowly, making each letter a syllable.
"Sorry, Amy, I don't create the rules, I just enforce them".
"Hah! So you're not a cold-blooded killer!" He rolled his eyes and took me by the arm.
Fine, I'd go with him; I'd demand to see who was in charge. I'd make a fuss, I'd make a scene - but perhaps that wouldn't be the wisest thing to do? Maybe if I had a paddy they wouldn't take me seriously and say that I was just a little girl that is uncapable of taking care of herself. But wait a minute, who were 'they'? Murderous foster carers? It seemed unlikely.
I got in the black sedan with him, keeping as silent as possible, going over what had just happened in my mind, as if it were stuck on replay. I'd remembered to lock the door - not that there was anything worth stealing. I mean, who'd want to steal a bookcase?
The journey to the government foster care building was a long one. I couldn't believe how far away we were going; suddenly the car veered off into the basement of what looked like a multi-storey car park.
"We're here," Ian whispered, breaking the silence. The car pulled to a halt, the hydrolics opening the doors before I could reach for the handle. I stepped out, looking about me, trying to take everything in. I gasped at the name of the place they had brought me to. That's when I realised that I had been tricked. Ian chuckled a little when he saw the look on my face. I glared at him which made him laugh even harder.
"Welcome - to - Mallinck," he gasped between each word.
"Okay, hand the little lassie over t'me, I'll make sure she get to see the boss," A tall, well-built man with an Irish lilt stepped out of the shadows. This man I had seen before; when I would gaze out of the window onto the street I would see him occasionally lance at the house, pace up and down and glance again.
I strode over to the tall man, arms folded, my shawl sliding slowly down my back, until I hoisted it back up onto my shoulders, clinging to it, hugging myself to keep warm.
"Come on then," I said, frustrated, cold and impatient. The word Mallinck, whatever it was, annoyed me. I'd heard or seen it somewhere before - but where..?
I was marched in through the sliding atuomatic doors, past the smiling secretary, trhough a set of double doors, down a narrow concrete corridor, until we reached an elevator.
"Going down!" The man couldn't help but snigger as the doors pinged open. We stepped through, and I wondered to myself how we could possibly go any further down; surely we weren't going underground? Apparently so. Every so often the man would glance at his watch, and seeing the floor numbers light up made him more anxious the further down we went.
I hummed a lullaby that I once learned to play on the piano, and he seemed to relax a little, until of course the doors sprang open and we stepped into a warm hallway lined on both sides with offices.
"Ah, Ben, just the man I was looking for," This man was going slightly silver on top and was dressed impeccably well, the boss, I assumed.
"Yes, sorry we're lat Sir, inquisitive one here," Ben nodded at me and I flushed crimson. This had been their plan all along - I didn't know what would happen next, and it made me nervous.

"An American Season"
With its expansive, five-part spring exhibition "An American Season," featuring the works of beloved artists Maurice Prendergast, John Singer Sargent, Alice Neel and Charles M. Russell, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston should satisfy anyone with even a passing interest in the fine arts. But one exhibition in particular, "Sargent and the Sea," will have both dilettantes and devotees clamoring for entry. As MFAH director Peter Marzio puts it, "Sargent built his formidable reputation on his now-legendary portraits of society figures and powerful personalities," but it was the sea that "first captivated the young artist." And when he says young, he means young: Sargent composed many of his sea-themed works in his late teens and early twenties, around 1880.
There are distant boats backlit by the sunset, a sailor reclining next to his beached boat, and villagers strolling across the sand with baskets for fish. Each of these sunny, idyllic scenes is painted in the same soft, pastel-infused tones of Sargent's portraits. As the complement exhibition, "Houston's Sargents," shows, Houstonians have a particular affection for the worldly American. The museum has rounded up 30 Sargents - mostly his more common portraiture - from local private collections. 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, 12:15 to 7 p.m. Sundays. Through May 9. 1001 Bissonnet. For information, call 713-639-7300 or visit www.mfah.org. Free to $7.
Tuesdays-Sundays. Starts: Feb. 14. Continues through May 23, 2010

Bane approaching with his operatic score was tight and bat/cat side by side was ol school classic ish, should of told his men to drop the weapons for a one on one plus it was at night it was the perfect setting. The first actual showdown is lackluster 2nd time seeing it. I want a bane reboot imo he wasnt done with justice in this,bane was too much of a terrorist/emcee rather than a brawler which I wanted to see more of. They could of done way more with bane...way more. If they have to incorporate CGI for us to get the venom so be it, If he has to get his hulk on just a lil bit bring it on.
And I saw dkr twice was not really by choice dont feel like explaining. Im done w/ this thread though...

You´re talking about a project of its own with at least medium complexity (just think of the components: index database, mbox2html parser, sophisticated indexing machine ala Harvest) which is nice and fine but unfortunately a little far off, don´t you agree?

Training camps are set to begin and NFL free agency is finally here.
We'll start it with news that Nnamdi Asomugha has agreed to a five-year, $60 million deal with the Philadelphia Eagles.

It's easy to be good. It's difficult to be great.
I'm waiting for Count to say that Bill Belicheck is arrogant in thinking he can salvage Albert and Ocho....

If Jerry had signed those two, he would be an idiot running a circus. Mumbles signs them and somehow they are the greatest moves of the offseason.

Not sure what the Eagles are doing. Got an outstanding CB but they got Rodgers-Cromartie yesterday and already had Samuel. You can't play all of them.
"The next game is the test unless we win" CanadienFan
Samuels will go to the Jets....at least that's the hypothesis according to ESPN
"Love one another as I have loved you"... Jesus-Christ our Holy Lord and Savior Forever Amen and Alleluia !!!
So why does Moss retire? was he bad last year?
He wants to skip training camp....he'll be back with a contender or a team in the hunt towards November
"Love one another as I have loved you"... Jesus-Christ our Holy Lord and Savior Forever Amen and Alleluia !!!
Anyone know if NFL Sunday Ticket plays the pre-season games? I forgot to check last night.
No, they don't. The Dolphins/Falcons game is on CBS though. I just don't know if it will be nationally televised.

Cool, thanks!
Should be an interesting year. Pats-Jets should be a good battle in the AFCE, though I think the Jets are looking less like the contender they were hyped as last year.
Steelers and Ravens again battle it out for the AFCN. As if being a Bengal fan isn't bad enough, the game of chicken with Palmer leaves him out of commission with a rookie QB and "mentor" Gradkowski on the field, plus without anything Palmer might have brought in a trade.
We'll see if Peyton's neck is a factor. If not, I don't expect the Texans to overcome the Colts in the AFCS
I pick the Chargers to win the AFCW, but if they start as slowly as usual, you never know. Raiders started to surprise last year, and the Chiefs added a few weapons like Breaston (if he can stay healthy).
I guess the Eagles must be considered the favorites in the NFCE. But it's still a tough division. The Giants remain a solid team and Garrett is solidifying control over the Cowboys' roster. Plus Shanahan is getting new life out of Hightower in a RB-friendly scheme and I assume his OL will be cut blocking. If any division personifies the "any given Sunday" cliche, it's this one.
The Pack actually returns with a healthier roster than they had in the Super Bowl: Rodgers to Finley all year is scary. I think Cutler is too erratic to challenge them. Detroit is improving and their defensive line is getting monstrous with Suh and Fairley. It'll be interesting to see the Vikings offense with McNabb. They still have AP, but they did lose Rice.
Suddenly the NFCS looks like it could be the toughest division--almost a toss-up among the Falcons, Saints, and Buccaneers. Though the Panthers...yikes. They could be first in line for the Andrew Luck sweepstakes.
And now the division no one cares about except for me: the NFCW. I'm excited to have Kolb on board. I'll take unproven over Derek Anderson and Max Hall any day. Kolb is looking good at camp and Skelton is a great developing backup. I'm excited about Ryan Williams at RB and hope Beanie can fulfill his potential. Love the addition of hometown boy Heap, and hopefully Fitzgerald is signed soon. But Bradford is for real in St. Louis. I have no idea what the Niners and Seahawks are doing, but as a Cardinals fan I've learned not to cast too many stones.

Why did the Dolphins give up on Ted Ginn?
Sigh, Tony Romo.
God ****ing damn it.
Elite goaltending will hide a lot of a bad team's flaws and make them look a lot better than they truly are. That's why Carey Price is the single most important player to his team in the NHL.

"Remember guys, your life could always be worse. You could be so ugly, broken and miserable that feminism actually sounds like a good idea." -Milo Yiannopoulos
You knew somehow they would lose on the road on the 10th anniversary.
Sanchez made the same mistakes Romo did but as expected, Romo will take all the blame not that at least half isn't warranted.
"The next game is the test unless we win" CanadienFan
Sorry but not giving up the ball when you are guaranteed a two-score lead is rookie shit. Throwing a lame INT that late in the game is rookie shit. This one is on Romo... again.
He's a good QB... just not a great one.
On the flipside... you can't have two better WR's than Bryant and Austin... those guys will get you catches few others in the league can.
I really can't blame him for the fumble, he was trying to make something out of nothing. I have bigger issues with the play calling down near the goal line. Witten also should have tried to cut inside on Leonhard. The INT there is no excuse but neither is there for a blocked punt.

Letters, Thursday, Feb. 17
There are 23 comments on the Lebanon Daily News story from Feb 17, 2011, titled Letters, Thursday, Feb. 17. In it, Lebanon Daily News reports that:My wife and I attended the recent Sweetheart Concert presented by the Jonestown Male Chorus.

George Gerber makes some interesting points about public education but there is a huge problem he didn't bother to address: the state Constitution mandates state involvement in public education. And as long as the state can meddle, we'll continue to have problems.
#2 Feb 17, 2011
#3 Feb 17, 2011
Morbius and Benjamin, are you two Constituton Attorneys. I think not !
#4 Feb 17, 2011
George, I remember when you gave me 3 swats for not doing homework in 7th grade Geography. That was 51 years ago...
#5 Feb 18, 2011
If all the school districts would combine in Lebanon County a lot of money would be saved.
Annville closed a school, Palmyra builds a school. Rerouting buses could have solved that problem and saved a ton of money. We would need only one adminastration saving a boat load of money.
I have said for years that charter schools would be a logistical nightmare.
It is funny that the only people that I hear wanting vouchers are the ones that send their kids to private school. They dont feel they should pay school taxes and pay for private school at the same time. What about people that dont have kids in school at all? Should they have to pay taxes to have your kids sent to religious school? Will there be a box on the tax form that says you do not wish to have your taxes pay for Christian schools? Will we be able to opt out of having our tax money go to any schools we dont feel represents our beliefs? Better yet we should be able to choose who we want to benefit from the money we pay in as taxes. If I dont like you I can simply check your name off the list and lobby my friends to do the same because I think it is a waste of time to have your lazy kids in a school that I have to pay for.
I can go on and on.
#6 Feb 18, 2011
Unfortunately, your argument is counter-intuitive. After all, do not parents who send their kids to private schools also pay taxes? Do they not have a right to say where the tax dollars go? Further, if our public schools are so wonderful, then why do private schools and cyber schools tend to show far better results with less money?
Do the math, folks! For 50 years we have been told that all public education needs is more money. At what point do we say that the operation has failed?
#7 Feb 18, 2011
you got it right.. "just give us more money, it will work this time" ummmm no it dont.
United States
#8 Feb 18, 2011
Mr. Gerber,
Your a retired teacher, right? Why don't you share your retirement income and benefits the us, please. Save us from having to send in a Right To Know Request to the PSEA.
#9 Feb 18, 2011
A voucher will cost more than you think. The school will have to provide transportation to get the child to the school of choice. Can you say taxi? Or Boyo Trans?
Piccola has interests beyond those of school students.
#10 Feb 18, 2011
How long before our teachers begin acting like thugs and carrying union placards with gun sights on pictures of Tom Corbett?
How long before union goons begin shooting Tea Party people?
#11 Feb 18, 2011
Less rhetoric, more actual thought, please.
Asking when a group of people will decide to shoot into another group of people is not civil, by any definition of the word.
It is, however, inflammatory. It's interesting, Morbius, how you continue to "debate" that way, instead of participating in informed, civil dialogue.
#12 Feb 19, 2011
A day without a letter from George Gerber is like a day without sunshine.
United States
#13 Feb 19, 2011
Based on the historical protesting methods of unionized workers I think it's a perfectly logical question to ask. We all know that the unionized protesters will get violent, so if we know when maybe we can prevent some people from getting hurt.
#14 Feb 19, 2011
Based on your comment, perhaps you can break down the percentage of non-violent union protests versus those that actually do include violence. That would probably be helpful to all readers, since you obviously want everyone to think that ALL unionized people are violent thugs.
Demonizing someone you disagree with is a popular tactic, but back it up and prove what you say, instead of just quoting something you heard from someone else. Who was your source, by the way? FoxNews? Glenn Beck? Tom Corbett? Mike Folmer? Frank Ryan? Scott Russo? Any other national, state, or local figure?

Unions attack workers with bats then give them away at Phillies game
June 28th, 2010 10:21 am ET
Philadelphia, the Iron Workers Union attacked construction workers with baseball bats while protesting a Toys R Us who hired non-union guys to do some renovations.
I'll get you some more examples and finish the debate with you later. I'm going to bed. I have to get up early for my non-union job.
#16 Feb 20, 2011
You talk as if every union and every protest causes problems. Are there union workers who take things too far? Absolutely.
Are there Tea Party members who take things too far? Absolutely (I remember seeing a particularly startling video of a man kicking a women on the ground, and wanting to stomp her head in, but being stopped by bystanders).
Are there plenty of other people in this world, country, and state that take things too far in a variety of situations? ABSOLUTELY.
I'll repeat my first comment, since you choose to just sensationalize things:
Based on your comment, perhaps you can break down the percentage of non-violent union protests versus those that actually do include violence. That would probably be helpful to all readers, since you obviously want everyone to think that ALL unionized people are violent thugs.
#17 Feb 20, 2011
But the ratio of extreme actions is 10:1 union thugs.
And when was the last time the unions and commies denounced the violence exercised by their brown shirts? Therein lies the difference; the 'stomper' was condemned by all TEA Party and 912 groups. The unions and anarchists embrace the violence of their ilk.
#18 Feb 20, 2011
How did you come up with your ratio? The fact that you want it to be true, doesn't make it true.
I could sit here and type out that the ratio of comments you make that are backed up by facts as opposed to those you pull out of thin air is 1:10. Maybe that's true, maybe that isn't...but I wouldn't claim it to be the ratio because I cannot honestly calculate such a ratio. Just like you can't prove yours.
Maybe I missed it, but I did not hear the "stomper" being condemned by all Tea Party and 9-12 Project groups at that time. To be fair, maybe that's the same reason you never hear unions denounce the actions of their members, when they go to far... Perhaps it's just because we aren't listening for that.
#19 Feb 21, 2011
You obviously have not been paying attention. Every time a rogue element has been identified in the TEA Party/912 groups (like finding a needle in a haystack), it has been condemned. Do a Google search and you will find it for yourself.
Yet, when the SEIU beat up a black conservative in the Midwest, the silence was deafening. When union thugs bit the finger off a TEA Party activist, it was excused as an over-excited action.
Have you ever been to a Right To Work rally in Harrisburg? Try going sometime and watch as union goons are bused in and then bully, shove and intimidate their way through the crowds.
I've seen these apes screaming "union" anytime they think their cushy government jobs get threatened; there is no free discussion or rationalizing with these people.
Take off your rose colored glasses and see the world for what it has become.
#20 Feb 21, 2011
You sure do hate union's

Buck-Passing: The president claims that "nothing has done more to undermine our economy these past three years than" what he calls Republicans' "manufactured crises." How about your policies, Mr. President?
President Obama on Thursday claimed "we don't know yet the full scope of the damage" of the shutdown. Even beyond the economy, he said, "probably nothing has done more damage to America's credibility in the world, our standing with other countries, than the spectacle that we've seen these past several weeks. It's encouraged our enemies. It's emboldened our competitors."
Did we get the timeline mixed up? Did the Syria debacle, which made America look like a paper tiger, really happen after the shutdown? Did Obama cancel his Moscow summit with Vladimir Putin because the shuttered federal government couldn't pump jet fuel into Air Force One, rather than because he would have left the summit empty-handed and humiliated?
Obama also quoted the Fitch ratings agency's grousing this week about the "brinksmanship" of Washington's political standoffs hurting the economy. Curiously, however, the president didn't mention it was Fitch he was quoting. Perhaps it was because holders of Credit Suisse's collateralized debt obligations who lost $125 million after trusting in Fitch's AAA rating might have told him how little credence should be placed in its analyses.
Two years ago, Obama was whistling a different tune about the ratings agencies. He made excuses for the S&P's historic downgrade of the U.S., saying the markets "continue to believe our credit status is AAA," and declaring that Warren Buffet said he would give the U.S. "a quadruple-A rating" if there were one.
But the most astonishing dance step in the post-shutdown shuffle might be the president's call to "stop focusing on the lobbyists and the bloggers and the talking heads on radio and the professional activists who profit from conflict" and instead "grow this economy, create good jobs, strengthen the middle class, educate our kids, lay the foundation for broad-based prosperity and get our fiscal house in order for the long haul."
Pretty business-friendly, right? But the friendliness isn't reciprocated. The Federal Reserve's beige book survey of businesses on Wednesday pointed a sharp finger at the devastating effects of ObamaCare, with employers cutting workers' hours or laying off employees because of the law.
The Dallas Fed reported one business respondent describing signed contracts in which a temporary employee is made full-time, but will later be hired permanently (but part-time) when ObamaCare is implemented.
Businesses aren't forced into such absurd, unproductive acrobatics because of something Sen. Ted Cruz or the Tea Party did. Years of the worst economic recovery in U.S. history didn't happen because of a recent, brief government shutdown.
They happened because, from the waste of a trillion dollars on a stimulus that didn't stimulate, to the hyper-regulatory Dodd-Frank financial overhaul that preserved "too big to fail," to the more-hated-by-the-day ObamaCare, this president's Big Government ways are keeping America down.

Throughout the day, Eve was delighted to get some more entries in our "Temple Book". At most temples in Japan you can present your "temple book" at temple and shrine to collect red stamps as well most temples have a scribe who will write a passage in the book in calligraphy. ...
... excited to find an equivalent to Barnes & Noble (half the store was manga). I spent awhile there but if they had been in English it would have been tough to get me to leave. I think my new goal now is to get good enough at Japanese that I can read one (haha, lets see if I really have the time to do that when I get back). After that (and some ice cream) I caught the bus & train back to the hostel. A full day done and ready to rest for an early next morning for travel back to ...
So much for going "old school"!!!!
... through with sweat clothes dry a little, we headed back to the temple (made her pay for a taxi this time). Kiyomizudera temple is beautiful, had nice cold tofu snack under the trees, wandered the shopping street on the way down, and finally walked all the way back to the hotel. Quick shower and change as we were meeting Daisuke, Kana, and grandma Tip to go to nice dinner in Osaka with grandma's friend Mr, Maeda. ...

... and her date walked in as well.
Was there more to Kyoto to top of my night? Indeed, after dinner we followed our friends to Teramachi street (which I had not yet read about in my novel but was coming up). We found a modern and yet classic jazz bar paneled in dark wood; sultry singing and expensive persimmon drinks were to permeate our experience.
Later, this drink would increase my awareness of the many persimmon trees I would see from my train window.

What you imagine a small temple to be, surrounded by nature and a pond, but with Golden walls and a Phoenix statue on top. It was built in 1397 but a crazy monk burned it down in 1950. It was quickly reconstructed. We wafted ourselves with the temple incense and wrote out ...

In doing a little research on my own it's near impossible to figure out which of the various article 78 petitions is the correct one to file and the ones I've found require the signature of an attorney.
Anyway, this has been a very disheartening experience.
No offense taken. I wrote a letter to the pistol licensing division to try and get some clarification on the conditions that have to be met to have the suspension lifted. Hopefully the letter won't go into file 13 and I'll get a clear reply on the when, where and how I can have my rights restored (hope springs eternal).
Anyway, thanks again folks for the encourage. It's helpful to know that the whole country hasn't gone off the deep end with respect to firearms and 2nd amendment issues. America still survives even though downstate NY seems to be headed toward a totalitarian stronghold.

One in 10 US secret service agents are aware of colleagues who have drunk excessively to the point they are "a security concern", according to an internal survey of elite personnel whose responsibilities include protecting the president.
Findings in the survey, buried in a recently released inspector general report, raise serious questions about the conduct of secret service agents, one of whom was found highly intoxicated at a hotel in the Netherlands on Sunday, hours before the arrival of Barack Obama this week.
The agent, and two others considered complicit in the incident, have been sent home for "disciplinary reasons", in the latest controversy involving agents engaging in questionable conduct abroad.
The Washington Post, which first reported the incident, said the agent was found drunk and passed out in a hallway in the Huis Ter Duin hotel on Sunday morning. It was the same hotel, a short drive from The Hague, where Obama stayed on Monday night on the first leg of a tour of Europe and the Middle East.
The Post said all three agents were on the counter-assault team, an elite unit that defends the president if he comes under attack, and that one agent was a team leader.
"We didn't have three guys crazy partying," an official with knowledge of the incident told the Guardian. "It was one guy who had too much to drink. Two guys apparently didn't take care of their buddy."
The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said there was no evidence that marijuana was also used by the agent, and was unable to say whether the trio had been placed on administrative leave pending the disciplinary investigation that is now under way.
The White House has not formally commented on the incident, which puts another dent in the reputation of the secret service, whose director, Julia Pierson, is personally accompanying Obama on Air Force One.
The inspector general's inquiry, commissioned after 13 agents were suspected of drinking and soliciting prostitutes in Cartagena, Colombia before a visit by Obama in 2012, largely exonerated the secret service management, concluding that the incident was isolated and not indicative of a broader problem within the agency.
However, the annex of the report, declassified three months ago, contains the results of a survey of 2,575 employees who identified alcohol consumption as the main kind of behaviour likely to raise a security concern.
In total, 269 employees, roughly 10% of those surveyed, were aware of "excessive alcohol consumption that causes a security concern" by colleagues.
In more than 60% of cases, an incident occurred during a mission to protect a senior government official or VIP. One in five agents who admitted to being aware of drunk colleagues, described excessive alcohol consumption as "systemic throughout the service".
Of those who had personally witnessed other agents drinking dangerous amounts of alcohol, 85% said they chose not to report the incident to a manager.
The report, produced by the Department of Homeland Security's inspector general after the debacle in Cartagena, nonetheless concluded there was no evidence that "misconduct is widespread", or found serious management failures in the secret service.
Stricter rules implemented in the aftermath of the Colombia prostitution scandal included a ban on consuming alcohol in the hotel of the protectee being guarded by the agents. A rule barring consumption of alcohol six hours prior to duty was increased to 10 hours.
In an attempt to stamp out use of prostitutes, agents are also now prohibited from bringing foreign nationals to hotel rooms where agents and officers are staying.
Three of the agents investigated over the Colombia incident later had their security clearance reinstated and are understood to have returned to duty. Five left the secret service before their case could be adjudicated, while another five had their clearance revoked because they "knowingly solicited prostitutes, demonstrated lack of candor during the investigation, or both.'
