Earth Day in Gainesville
Today marks the 39th annual celebration of Earth Day.
All across the country and right here in North Central Florida people gathered to promote a message of protecting our planet.
At the University of Florida's Plaza of the Americas, student groups handed out information on how to recycle hazardous materials and ways to conserve energy. You could even grab free samples of vegan brownies that could be part of a diet that is one way to reduce your carbon footprint.
"We're basically trying to attract people with the goodies and getting them to consider reducing their meat and dairy consumption for the sake of the environment," said Lindsay Mills, President of student environmental vegetarian group enVeg.
Or if you preferred something that would last a bit longer, there were also free plants and saplings.
"It feels good and it gets people involved and thinking about it more," said UF student William Dueease.
In his first ever outdoor address on sustainability, UF President Bernie Machen said UF recycled 52-hundred tons of material last school year. He also shared a recent change in his work routine.
"Today is the first day that Chris and I have ridden to campus together on our bicycles," Machen said.
Ten "Bright Idea Awards" were also handed out to students, faculty and staff with the best plans for sustainability at UF.

Stereo Guys help me out
Ok so ive been looking into MOPAR® Kicker Audio Speaker Upgrade (MOPAR 77KICK10 - MOPAR® Kicker Audio Speaker Upgrade for 05-13 Jeep® Wrangler JK, Unlimited JK, Liberty & Grand Cherokee - Quadratec) but i have the stock radio... (Media center 130 RES)
So this speaker wont be any louder? Right?
It would just be clearer. I dont want to blow $80 on the speakers if they arent any louder. I would need a new stereo in order for it to be louder? Ive only learned this stuff from googling as i know nothing about audio systems.
Thanks in advance for any help. Sorry for all the questions lol
I don't have the base system (I had the premium system with the 130), but I do have the 77Kick10's. Bottom line...get a new HU...then you can go with the Kickers or Polk Audio or whatever.
With the new Kickers, my sytem could much clearer, but did not hit as hard and was a touch quieter. My guess is becaue of the stupid Chrysler 2 ohm impedance.
The audio loudness is derived from the power amp section of the stereo receiver.
(receiver= preAmp, Power Amp, and radio Tuners, CD transports etc.)
Some have separate pre and power amps, but am audio tech, not an auto guy so much that I know their layout. If they have all of the above inside the box unit, it is called an integrel device as all components are integrated. High end units generally have massive power amps to handle heavy bass, and hot highs. They also have active crossovers to separate the frequencies going to each amplifier.
Integrel units usually have only medium power. 40-50 usable watts.
Speakers/ audio sound best with low distortion. That's why the big amp. It's more about headroom, than loudness. Wattage is subjective based on impedance of the speaker to connect up with a like impedance amp output. Certain speakers may 'sound' a bit louder, but is likely more distorted and harming the speaker and amp if impedance does not match. If your stereo is 8 ohm rated, so should your speakers be as well.
Most systems are also now having isolated outputs. i.e. no grounded speaker connections! (in fact, you can blow the amp just from a speaker wire touching a ground!
If you want to do this right, get professional advice on the subject from a good installer.
They know the ins and outs on this subject very well, and can advise you competently and usually a free estimate.
Yeah, what he said.
Although...... after blowing 3 roll bar speakers in 2 months and having the dealer replace them over and over I finally got sick of the crappy sound and put Rockford Fosgate Punch speakers in the roll bar and dash.
I think they were both 6" speakers.
They are "louder" to me, or at least they can handle higher volume.
I can crank the stock head unit up as loud as it will go without bad distortion.
As long as it's Pantera or Metallica anyway, might not work with those other types of so called music. So, better sound same so-so power.
At least I can hear Click and Clack on Saturday morning with the top off.
There are three ways to get "louder"
More Power
More drivers
More efficient drivers
I recommend anyone who says that they don't know anything:
To start reading a ton about what they want to know
Go to a shop and have something installed by a professional.
There are thousands of pages of info on forums around the net (not Jeep ones) for the info you need. If you don't have the time or the technical know how, see rule #2. You can spend tons of money on this endeavor and hear very little difference, or make things worse very quickly.
Go to shops, listen to stuff, Get to know how you want it to sound.
I personally think that the low end Kicker stuff that Mopar sell is junk.
Other people think this stuff sound the best ever, everyone is different.
I might not put it in a car that I am going to sell just to give it tunes...
Also if you put a coax speaker (the type in the link) in the front of the JK without disabling the dash tweet you will end up with phase issues and the whole thing will sound even crappier. Oh, BTW, those Mopar Kickers are about the same as the DS line, which retail for about $50, just no factory easy mount and plug-in for your up charge.
You will want to get some separates up front, non-infinity factory junk is about as good as a $80-$100 set of separates (that is pushing it as the tweets really suck) and the Infinity mids are actually not too bad, maybe up to $150 set, again the tweets suck. Also the factory stuff is really very efficient, and 2ohm, so it is hard to match just by changing some speakers, you can actually lose volume with the wrong speaker choice.
You could perhaps have an illusion of louder with changing the sound-bar speakers to the Kickers, the addition of the tweeter fulfills one of the louder criteria.
In the end you really need more power, as in external amplifiers, just a head unit will not do, you will not notice the difference between the OEM 10w-20w and an aftermarket 15w-30w of power.
From my expirence and it doesn't make me a professional at all just what I have encountered and maybe you can take something from it. I did my stereo upgrade in phases, I started with the speakers in the sound bar and in the dashboard I replaced the stock speakers with pairs of Kickers. I went with those because I could go to bestbuy and actually hear how they sounded, and these had the best clarity were they the loudest speaker probably not but I was looking for clarity, so after installing those and still having the factory radio installed the sound was much better then factory speakers, I then finally replaced the factory radio with a JVC unit and that took the speakers to a whole new level. If your not wanting bass then you can stop there and what the sound your getting from those two upgrades is night and day difference from all the stock components. I went a step further since I have always had bass of all sorts in my vehicles I went with the infinity BassLink self powered amp/ sub all in one. This is a very impressive unit, its not shake the world loud bass but if I turn it up you can hear it outside the jeep pretty good. From my own research if you don't do anything major replacing the factory radio is the biggest key to getting better sound, adding the other components is of course optional. Good luck hope your upgrade turns out how you want.

Positive findings are reflected in the spring survey which reports that fewer employees thinking it is likely they will lose their job, an increase in net job satisfaction, and an increase in our engagement measures of employee influence over job, use of skills, motivation and effort.
Employees are also more satisfied with opportunities for employee voice and are more likely to believe that their performance processes are fair. Overall attitudes to senior leaders have improved and the emotion that employees most readily associate with work is that of being cheerful.

Reporters Without Borders is worried by the last night's threat by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces to use the state of emergency law against all journalists "threatening social peace." It followed a raid earlier in the day on Al-Jazeera's Egyptian affiliate, Al-Jazeera Mubasher Egypt, as part of an announced operation to check the licences of 16 satellite TV stations. […]
The raid on Al-Jazeera Mubasher Egypt's Cairo headquarters was carried by culture ministry and public broadcasting agency personnel and members of the security services. .

MK3 2012 Focus - Oil Change 101
Just did my first oil change on the 2012 Focus. Thought I'd help those who haven't done it yet.
What you'll need:
15mm wrench, T30 torx, 1.25 gallons of 5W-20 Oil, Oil Filter ( FL-910S )
Raise the car.
I used a floor jack at the front driver jack point (see manual), then braced with a jack stand to prevent getting killed. I think ramps would be easier.
Remove the felt panel by removing the 8 torx bolts.
If you remove the bolt shown at the red arrow last (front center of car), the panel will stay up nicely. Supported by the notches shown with the yellow arrows.
Don't bother considering cutting a hole in the felt panel to get access to the oil filter. You'll need to remove the panel to get to the drain plug anyway. It comes off easy enough.
Change the oil filter and drain the oil.
I didn't need an oil filter wrench because the oil filter is VERY accessible and could grab it with two hands. When replacing the filter, wet the rubber gasket on the new filter with oil, wipe away any dirt on the gasket surface of the engine and screw the new filter in until it touches the gasket surface. THEN screw by hand 3/4 of a turn more. Don't forget to put the drain plug back in (20 ft/lbs per Ford shop manual - Oil pan drain plug/Part# 6730/ Torque 27 Nm (20 lb-ft)).
Put 4 quarts of oil in, start the engine and check for leaks.
Do this before lowering the car. 4 quarts will fill it enough to measure halfway between the two holes on the dipstick. If you want to avoid some of the start-up clatter, crank the engine for a few seconds with the accelerator floored. Gas is shut off when you do this but the oil pump should fill the filter. After making sure you have no leaks, replace the felt panel, lower the car and top off the oil. Mine took exactly 4.5 quarts to reach the top of the hash marks on the dipstick.
Resetting the oil life monitoring system
1. Turn the ignition key to the on position. Do not start the engine.
For vehicles with push-button start, press and hold the START/STOP
button for two seconds without pressing the brake pedal. Do not attempt
to start the engine.
2. Press both the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time.
3. Keep both pedals fully pressed.
4. After three seconds, the Service: Oil reset in prog. message will be
5. After 25 seconds, the Service: Oil reset complete message will be
6. Release both the accelerator and brake pedals.
7. The Service: Oil reset complete message will no longer be
8. Rotate the key to the off position.
For vehicles with push-button start, press the START/STOP button to
turn the vehicle off completely.

There's always a towelling bandana tied around Billy Cobham's shaven head. Not to keep the hair out of his face, obviously, but to keep the sweat out of his eyes, because Billy is one of the great jazz drummers. It was also observed last night that [a] he is left-handed and [b] he dropped a stick on the opening number but covered the slip so brilliantly that almost nobody noticed it.
His material was less easy to disguise. Though intriguingly billed as Tales from the Skeleton Coast, familiar numbers such as Crosswinds resurfaced, performed by familiar faces from his previous tour. Never mind. It was good to hear Jean-Pierre Ecay again, the Gallic guitarist who stirs high-speed licks into slo-mo Santana sustain and manages to look clean-cut with shoulder-length hair. Also Junior Gill, whose steel-pan lines cut through jazz-rock drum-and-bass like a laser beam, and Brazilian keyboard diva Camelia Ben Naceur, the hippest soloist in the band.
Billy's solos were surprisingly delicate, almost conversational snare figures punctuated by light bass-drum shots and linked by the smoothest press-rolls in the business. There's much more to him than a heavy backbeat.

You can guess where I stand on this otherwise I wouldn't be writing this blog and others like it ...
Yesterday I was a guest speaker in an Axios webinar, called "Using ITSM to Increase Business User Satisfaction and the Perception of IT," during which we ran four audience polls. I thought it would be great to share the poll results and my thoughts.
The webinar story arc …
I set the scene using many of my favorite graphics including the following which shows the gulf between the business' and IT's own opinions of how well the average internal IT organizations is doing …
… Before starting to look at how what we do and measure either increases or decreases the customer experience – including the fact that we often seem to be too focused on what we do in IT rather than what we achieve through what we do in IT (and IT service management (ITSM)). I also included a section on common metrics issues which I've previous blogged on here and here; and the customer experience work of my Forrester colleagues and its applicability to internal IT.
The poll results and my thoughts …
1. Do you consider the people that consume your IT services to be:
Posted by Stephen Mann on February 26, 2013
It's finally here. The Forrester Market Overview: SaaS IT Service Management Tools covers: a little ITSM tool history and how we have moved on, the benefits and risks of the SaaS delivery model, key selection criteria for selecting a SaaS (or on-premises) tool, and overviews of 23 tools (from 21 vendors) and their functional capabilities across the enterprise and midmarket marketplaces.
"Why on earth did you write a SaaS-only ITSM report?" I hear some cry
It's simple – Forrester client demand. In 2012, a good 25% of my 400ish a year client inquiries related to IT service management (ITSM) tool selection; and the SaaS-delivery model (and the key vendors) was covered in nigh on all of them. That's not to say the client ultimately went SaaS though, inquiries are very much about rapid information exchange in helping clients make important decisions. It's not about making the decision for the client.
What the SaaS ITSM market looks like
The following figure shows the 23 vendor tools split by average customer subscription (seat) count (described as Enterprise, Upper Midmarket, and Lower Midmarket) and their degree of customer success (the number of paying customers):
There are of course other ITSM tool vendors who declined to participate for a variety of reasons. One would be that they were not briefing Forrester analysts and thus not on our radar.

Given the recent news about Boeing's 787 Dreamliner, my title may surprise you. Please read on.
Posted by Stephen Mann on February 5, 2013
The changing business and IT landscapes bring increased demand for IT (or IT services) AND increasing complexity. The slide below (a tweaked version of a genuine Glenn O'Donnell original) paints a picture of increasing complexity and an impending capability gulf; if it isn't already here.
So can IT organizations cope by increasing their manual ability, usually by employing or buying in more people resource?
Even if they could get suitable resource (availability and recruitment can be issues), could the parent business afford the jump in labor costs as these continue to be a highly-visible element of overall IT service delivery costs? Adding more people doesn't necessarily fit in with the now oft-quoted mantra of "do (or deliver) more with less."
A recent webinar with ServiceNow looked at drivers for and opportunities from automation, and how to approach building the business case for service management AND automation. Where Forrester defines automation as:
"Tools that perform functions otherwise done by humans."

A Forrester-client inquiry call last night and the creation of some slides for a webinar with Axios really got me thinking about how we measure our success in IT. It just seemed so easy to take the IT version of success (and the associated measures) and create a snide customer retort. It's a little tongue-in-cheek but please take a read of one of my Axios slides:
I'm sure there are many more to play with.

When Brian Burke was named the Calgary Flames' president of hockey operations, he
vowed to stay in the background
. Now, having fired general manager Jay Feaster and assumed interim duties, Burke is back on centre stage.
Burke, of course, is not known to shy away from a microphone — any microphone. The interim Flames GM was speaking to a group of University of Calgary students looking to work in sports law at the school's Murray Fraser Hall when he took a quick shot at the Vancouver Canucks over the line brawl that kicked off Saturday night's game.
"I'm not happy with the fine that coach Hartley received," Burke said,
as quoted on the University of Calgary's website.
"Especially since we all know the Canucks started it."
Flames coach Bob Hartley had put the Flames' fourth line on the ice to start the game, and Canucks coach John Tortorella responded in kind. Fights broke out as soon as the puck was dropped, with all five skaters from each team dropping the gloves.
"Torts said they were starting their idiots so we had to, too," Vancouver forward Tom Sestito said after the game.
Hartley was fined US$25,000 for his role in the melee. Tortorella, who attempted to force his way into the Flames' dressing room after the first period in a move NHL executive Colin Campbell called "dangerous and an embarrassment to the league," was given a 15-day suspension.
In an earlier statement, Burke said
he was "perplexed" by Hartley's fine
"I stand behind Bob Hartley completely in this regard, and remain confident that he acted properly in every aspect of this game," he added.

Hobo Hugh Grant
February 27th, 2012
He was late. He didn't look like his picture (he said his hair had longer, "kind of like Hugh Grant." Yeah, if HG was a hobo who didn't shower…). So far, so blah. First, we went to an awful, scary bar because they did "really cheap beers." Then we had to leave there and go to a pub in a freezing cold train station because "it's cheaper." He had grey teeth and kept leaving to go for a cigarette, in between drinking from my drink. He asked what size shoe I wear, because apparently I have "really big feet for a girl." He expressed disappointment that I wasn't more "touchy feely" as I shrank into the corner of the sofa to avoid his cigarette breath. He compared me unfavorably to other dates ("I usually get more contact. You're being unusual."), boasted that his shoes cost two dollars and then told me he was about to lose his job because he'd taken too many sick days for the boils on his ass. BOILS! ASS! I left and he texted me about how uncomfortable I'd made him and how my future would not involve him. My response? "Ditto."

Hi! Welcome to the web-demo for AnimalAlbum. (5-5-2014)
It takes a bit to load (15 MB), so please have a look at the controls below.
Everything in the demo is work in progress and subject to change. This is just a small web-based version of the real game which will be released in May 2015.
With that said, if you wanted to get a quick idea of what AnimalAlbum is about, then this is a good place to start.
Thank you for playing!
Use the arrow keys to walk around.
Press enter to talk to people.
Use the mouse to click on things.
- When talking to people you can ask about certain things by clicking on the keywords in the "ask about" menu.
- You can also click on the album and heart icons at the bottom to look into their respective menu's.
Sometimes when you're standing in tall grass or bushes, the screen flashes. Press the spacebar to go into an encounter.
Technical notes:
For this flash demo I've had the best results with Firefox & Opera.
Chrome showed some vague visual hickups.
Internet Explorer sometimes scaled the pixels, producing visual artefacts.
On touch devices Internet Explorer has some difficulties with mouse input (it does not treat the focus on the flash app differently, so windows pop-up menu's can appear).
My apologies for these issues, I can offer you the flash file directly so you can download the game and play it in Adobe's flash projector. To download the flash file, right click and select save-as.
Of course, the full game should not have these issues as it will be an OS-specific version.
If you liked the demo, please spread the word or support the kickstarter :)

Bernanke prods Congress to raise debt ceiling
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke speaks at Rackham Auditorium on Monday, Jan. 14, 2013, at [auth] the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Mich. (AP Photo/AnnArbor.com, Daniel Brenner) LOCAL TV OUT; LOCAL INTERNET OUT
WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said Monday that it's important that Congress raise America's borrowing limit before the Treasury runs out of maneuvering room to avoid a potential default on U.S. debt.
Bernanke, speaking at the University of Michigan, said the approaching debt limit is one of the "critical fiscal watersheds" for the government in coming weeks.
President Barack Obama also spoke Monday about the urgency of raising the limit. Obama said he wouldn't let congressional Republicans use the debt limit as leverage in negotiations over spending cuts.
Bernanke noted that an impasse over the debt ceiling in 2011 led to a rating downgrade of long-term U.S. debt, the first time that's occurred. He said Congress should raise the ceiling to "avoid a situation where our government doesn't pay its bills."
The Fed decided last month to keep buying $85 billion a month in Treasurys and mortgage bonds to try to keep borrowing costs low and encourage more spending. The bond-buying program was left open-ended.
But it turned out that Fed officials differed about how long the bond purchases should continue. When the minutes of the meeting were released Jan. 3, they revealed that "several" committee members thought the purchases should slow or end well before year's end. These officials fear the bond buying is keeping rates so low for so long that it could ignite inflation or encourage speculative buying of risky assets.
Still, many economists have said they think the Fed will maintain its bond purchases at their current level through 2013.
On Monday, Bernanke didn't address the divisions within the Fed. But he said he thought the new round of bond buying was providing key support. He said the Fed will continue to assess the benefits of the bond buying against any risks of continuing the purchases.
Bernanke said the purchases have shown that the Fed still has "ammunition" to aid the economy even after having cut short-term interest rates to near zero.
Last month, the Fed also said it planned to keep its key short-term interest rate at a record low even after unemployment falls close to a normal level — which it said might take three more years. Unemployment remains high at 7.8 percent because the economy is growing too slowly and not creating jobs fast enough.
In December, employers added 155,000 jobs, roughly matching the monthly average in 2011 and 2012. That's just been enough to slowly reduce the unemployment rate, which fell 0.7 percentage point during 2012.

ACM Awards - Who will take home the trophies this year?
While we gave you an initial look at the 2014 nominees for the Academy of Country Music Awards yesterday, we're thinking you'd like a deeper look at how the big show may shake out. At the top of the heap? Miranda Lambert and Tim McGraw, who are each up for seven awards apiece. Keith Urban is next up with six nods; and Taylor Swift, Blake Shelton, Kacey Musgraves and Lee Brice have five. Florida Georgia Line and Lady Antebellum are next in line with four nods.

This would make sense, if there was a cut-off somewhere along the vast "deodorant using—crop dusting" continuum.
Those seemingly distinct blow-ups are actually part of a continuum: Wall Street is clinging to a model that no longer exists.
Phelps lay along a continuum of conservatism—not on the other side of a border from it.
Which of the people you know would align themselves where on the continuum of resistance and collaboration?
It was a continuum of wild, tabloid lifestyles leading up to, guess who.
The logical law of the continuum formarum logicarum presupposes the transcendental law, lex continui in natura.
How, moreover, can Magnitude, and a continuum arise out of that which has no Magnitude?
All intervening nature is the continuum of two good and wise men.
The world line of a ray of light is a geodesic in the continuum.
On this account the cut C´ is itself a continuum and the cut C has more than one dimension.
1640s, from Latin continuum "a continuous thing," neuter of continuus (see continue). The plural is continua.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
yeah it does go thru.
problem solved- combination of adj. timing, fuel/air mixture, and proper return venting.
I'm on to locking hubs and DIY exhaust....
thanks again all!
Does the shaft for your throttle plates go through the body of the carb? Lots of rebuilt carbs suffer from air getting through that hole in particular-
I just changed out the fuel vent line...the vent lines were switched on the solenoid. I have 17" of vacuum right now at 9* advance (w/the vac advance connected).
if I lean it out it doesn't like it - gets a little shudder-ey.
the return lines were it. straightened those out, made sure they were all in the right places and fixed a too tight bend.
thanks guys. Now I'm hoping adjusting the accelerator pump will solve the stall off a stop.
|It's always best to limit ruber fuel line but even if you had 15' the fuel pump shouldn't suck it shut as long as the the fuel pick up isn't blocked. Have you tried to lean the idle out yet? With a stock cam you should be pulling a little more vacuum. Unless your living at a high altitude you should be able to get more than 18" of vacuum.
it's all a very stock build. stock cam. HEI dist. Edelbrock 1407 750cfm carb. about 2 turns out each side. Last vac reading after tuning was 17 steady, almost rock steady. Somehow my timing had worked it's way pretty advanced too so I made sure my dist was tighter this time. vac leaks using WD 40 (thanks!) showed no leaks.
I THINK I'm on to tracking down a fuel line vacuum issue, as in 1) return line was blocked off- I replaced all filters and ran a return to the solenoid port (dual tanks). Runs better so far but I ran out of gas around the corner. D'OH!
I have rubber line to metal line (about 1') then 4' of metal line then 4' of rubber line from there. How much rubber line is too much? I'm wondering if it's sucking the line shut.
at this point it seems better, in fact when I put more gas in after running out around the corner it seemed real happy, but haven't been out again yet.
|Several things. I don't think your torque wrench lied, it's normal to have to retighten the manifold bolts after a few heat cycles. Are your step up pistons and metering rods able to move freely. If you have a big cam and stiff step up springs there may not be enough vacuum to pull the metering rods down ito the jets at idle. Did you ever completely fix the vacuum leak? If not you may have the same problem as the big cam problem. By the check for vacuum leaks with WD-40 instead of starting fluid. The engine will thank you for it.
well you definitely gave me somewhere unique to look! I did have quite a bit of pressure in the fuel line when I disconnected it before I rebuilt the carb. I just redid the gas tank (pulled it, pool acid wash) and I know the vent line is free and clear. I'll look for black smoke too...my gut still tells me it's trying to run too rich or somethin. Right now it's 2 turns out both sides.
Before I rebuilt the carb I remember now that when it did this I messed w/the idle screws and it settled down- when I had them about 3.5 turns out each. Then when I went to start it again it did the same thing later.
|What my car would do first is the idle would start fluctuating up and down, and right afterwards, fuel would pour out of the boosters, the car would still idle, but real rough. Eddy carbs don`t like over 5.5 psi fuel pressure. When the car goes to idling bad, if you see no fuel flooding out of the boosters, check the exhaust for black smoke, the clue is the same. once my car got to the point it flooded it didn`t stop, I got a gauge for it and the fuel pressure was 14 psi, and with a STOCK pump, never seen anything like this, I later traced the problem down to the gas tank vent line that used to be connected to the carbon canister, I had blocked it off, and once the pressure in the tank built up, it would jack up the pressure since the air had no where to escape to.
it's a manual pump and an edelbrock 1407. I checked the fuel volume and it pumps good, but I'll try what you suggested tomorrow. I was wondering the same thing actually which is why I bypassed the other tank/fuel switch completely (didn't help). My floats are set to offroad specs (7/16" above gasket). Accelerator pump is on the shortest throw.
would that problem still exist though if after it starts running rought it continues to do so at idle for severa minutes?
|Sounds a whole lot like my car a while back, which was a fuel pressure problem, what is your fuel pressure set at? A test you can do is this, remove the air cleaner, start the car and let it idle, as soon as it starts running rough, shine a flashlight in the carbs throat and see if fuel is coming out of the boosters, if you have a site view float type carb, check the float level and see where it`s at.
new rebuild sbc runs great in the driveway but...
as soon as I take it out it starts acting up.
I'm really frustrated with this thing. I rebuilt the carb. seemed ok sittin in the driveway. Idles fine, revs fine. Real smooth. take it out- goes about a mile and starts stumbling again. Then it idles rough. So I come back and look for vac leaks. find w/my starting fluid it seems to pick up around the carb base - but this is a new gasket. so I cinch it down just a bit. Still revs w/fluid but not as much. Also I noticed the bolts on my intake mani were a bit loose too- so I cinched those down "wrist tight" since apparently my cheapo torque wrench lied to me. Tomorrow when I start it up again it'll probably act fine.
checked the fuel filter, it's clean. Thought maybe it's the fuel tank solenoid actin up and causing some fuel starvation, so I bypassed that. Still does it.
I'm out of ideas, and don't even know what else could be causing this.

Missouri Valley College Hall of Fame
Robert "Tom" Butterfield
Class of 1996
Tom graduated from Missouri Valley College in 1963, with a double-major in Psychology and Education. Active in both football and track Tom was voted sophomore class president and elected student body president his junior year.
In 1962, while still a student, Tom became a foster parent for a young boy he found in a state mental institution. This youngster served as the catalyst for the founding of Butterfield Boys Ranch, which would later become Butterfield Youth Services.
Tom completed a Master Degree from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1970, and in 1973 was certified as a social worker.
Tom convinced Warner Brothers and CBS to come to Marshall in June of 1981 to file "The Children Nobody Wanted," the story of the founding of Butterfield Youth Services. As a result, Reader's Digest published a story entitled, "Unforgettable Tom Butterfield."
Since his death in 1982, Tom has been recognized posthumously by the University of Missouri-Columbia, the Missouri Valley College Athletic Hall of Fame, and has received Presidential Awards from Presidents Kennedy, Nixon, Reagan, Bush, and Clinton.
The inscription in Tom's yearbook described him best: "A young man who's every thought was in behalf of his fellow man."

Street survey: What's your dream super power?
These New Yorkers fantasized about telepathy and extra genitalia.
Kathryn G., 32, visual artist, East Village
"[A superhero should have] a penis and vagina. I feel that gender is constructed, so we both should have both and be both."
Sophie A., 29, artist, Nolita
"If I were a superhero, my special power would be to make anyone fall in love with me for as long as I want."
Rachel X., 22, business-strategy consultant, Chelsea
"My superhero would definitely have a lot of integrity, pride and loyalty---plus the ability to fly and read people's minds. Is that really clich? Also, preventing hurricanes."
Anna K., 28; corporate attorney, Gramercy/Flatiron
"Invisibility, the power to fly and the ability to stop time, so you can sleep and do other things that you don't usually have time for."
Michael C., 19, student; Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn
"He'd have to be someone with an unwavering sense of justice, who can follow through no matter what and believe in himself. I think that's most important. You can't just be half-assed about things---especially as a superhero. When lives are in danger, you can't hesitate; just find your principles and stick with them."
Dimitris K., 19, student; Flushing, Queens
"My ideal superhero would probably be someone courageous, even if it's not like a superman with actual physical powers. [For example, he could] have the ability to save someone from a burning building. He doesn't have to fly up there; he can actually go up the stairs. It can be anything, as long as he has the power and courage to do something that others wouldn't do."
Fred G., 75, retired photographer and artist, Upper West Side

I have been tagged by Jessica (498910) in a wonderful game of Angel Tag. The game is called "All I Want For Christmas" and I am pleased to state my 7 Christmas wishes here:
1) I wish that all the feral kitties out there will find a caring human who will take care of them, love them, and help them stay safe.
2) I wish that more people were aware of the importance of spaying/neutering their animals.
3) I wish that people would stop fighting amongst themselves, and instead, start trying to work together to solve our problems.
4) I wish that no more animals would have to suffer cruelty or neglect at the hands of people. Animals love so completely and unconditionally-they deserve the same in return.
5) I wish that people would give more and take less. Giving feels so good-why doesn't everyone understand that?
6) I wish that every animal and person in the world gets to experience love before they have to depart from this life.
7) I wish everyone a peaceful, joyful holiday season full of warm hugs and lots of love.
The five fur-angels I am tagging are

Yesterday was sooo overwhelming for me. On Friday, I was starting to feel really sick and my picture was taken up-close. Meowmy could hear that I was having a hard time breathing, and she knew I needed help. She tried to catch me by talking to me and coaxing me with treats while she slowly creeped closer. She got within a couple of feet, but I got scared and went away. I knew she was trying to do something, but I just couldn't be 100% sure what it was. She seemed like a good human, but could I trust her?
I didn't come back that night-even though I knew it would be a rough night for me alone.
Meowmy has been in contact with a feral cat organization just this last week, and had arranged to rent a trap so she could get us all into the vet to get us fixed/checked-up/etc. Daddy was going to pick up the trap the day after meowmy took the picture of me when I was sick. When meowmy woke up on Saturday morning, she was worried because she did not see me before she went to work like she usually did. She came home for lunch, and checked out the picture she took of me yesterday on the computer. She started crying because I looked so sick and skinnny, and it showed that I had really bad runny eyes and nose. Thick mucus was caked to my nose and around my eyes, and it was getting really hard for me to breathe. I was feeling terrible, and meowmy knew she had to help me fast because I am so skinny and sick, and the weather had been windy, rainy and cold overnight.
She went back to work so worried because she still hadn't seen me. She told everybody at work to keep an eye out for me because she didn't think I could survive another night outside. Meowmy lives across the street from where she works (at a garbage/recycling depot), so she thought there was a good chance I was around the area if I was still alive. A couple of hours after her lunch, someone saw me at the front entrance. Meowmy and her boss started to go after me because there is lots of traffic during business hours-8am-4:30pm-(there is next to no traffic after hours). They were scared someone would run me over. They tried to catch me, but I ran into someone's yard. That was still a good sign to meowmy because I had survived the night, so she would have a chance to catch me.
About half an hour later, meowmy was standing next to a van, helping the customer unload it when the customer said, "What a little scraggly looking cat that is!" Meowmy got very excited and asked where the cat went. The customer said it was under his van. Meowmy knelt down on the ground, and there I was-crouching under the van near her feet. She couldn't believe it! A stray/feral cat coming out in broad daylight to an environment where there are people and cars everywhere.
She laid down on the ground and tried a few times to grab me, but she had gloves on and they smelled funny-I got scared and ran again. I went running towards the exit, but I wasn't going too fast. Her boss was close by trying to catch me. I tried to run through a hole in the fence, but I fell over and her boss pinned me down. I bit him good through the thumb because I was soooo scared. Meowmy came running up and grabbed me with those thick gloves and I hissed a little, but was still for her. She went into the bathroom and placed me gently into the tub. I was very scared, so I was very still. She told me she was going to get a carrier to put me in and she would be right back.
Meowmy ran to her neighbours house to borrow her plastic carrier (meowmy only has a cardboard one for Luna) and then came back for me. I was still lying in the bathtub when she came back. She put the carrier beside me and to meowmy's surprise-I walked right in and she closed the door without a fuss from me.
Meowmy called the vet and told them what had happened. They told her to come down and they would have a look at me. At the vet, I was so scared, I just cooperated with the people there. meowmy kept telling me it would be okay now, no matter what.
I was so badly dehydrated, when you pulled my skin-it just stayed they way and wouldn't spring back. The vet said I had no bady fat. When I was flipped over onto my back, meowmy found out I was actually a girl, not a boy like she thought I was. (She had never seen me with my tail up before.)
Then, when they checked my paws, they found out that my claws had become ingrown. All of them had grown deep into the pads on my feet.
Because of this, they thought that might explain why I was so skinny. I could not hunt without my claws, and I couldn't run well because they caused me so much pain. That made the vet think I might be older, until he checked my teeth. My teeth told him I was still quite young.
The vet cut my claws for me and cleaned my paws. He gave me liquid antibiotics. He told meowmy I was in very rough shape and needed to be rehydrated and possibly force-fed. But he told her that there was still hope. Meowmy could not afford "gold star" treatment where I could stay with the vet and be put on IV and monitored all night, so she had to do the conservative treatment. He showed her how to give me my medicine and told her to get me to eat and drink, even if she had to force -feed me.
Meowmy paid the $105 and took me home, armed with medicine, kitty "rocket-fuel food"(high moisture and nutrient wet food), and a syringe in case she had to force-feed me. She put me in her bathroom and made a bed with towels and a hot water bottle. She put food and water out for me. When she got me out of the carrier, I went straight for the food and water and started eating and drinking on my own! Meowmy was so happy I did this, she cried. She called her friend and told her the news. Her friend said my name should be "Hope".
So, my name is now Hope, and I am a girl. I had a good night last night. It was warm and cozy. Meowmy came in every few hours to refresh my hot-water bottle and make me drink water. I got sick a bit at 4am, but meowmy cuddled me up and made me feel lbetter. She gave me a syringe of water to rehydrate me after, since I had been sick.
It is now noon, and I am curled up sleeping. It is sooo nice to feel warm and safe. I trust meowmy so much, after she gave me my medicine at 11am, I crawled up into her lap to let her know I love her.
Meowmy wants everyfurr to purr and pray that I can recover. I've been in so much pain from my claws and my respiratory infection for a long time. My breathing sounds better today, and I went pee. It was yellow and stinky, which the vet said would be a good sign.
Meowmy will keep everyfurr posted on how I am doing.

LONDON -(Dow Jones)- Steel titan ArcelorMittal (MT) expects to sell a significant portion of its $10 billion in minority investments and joint ventures in order to shore up its balance sheet.
Chief Financial Officer Aditya Mittal said that management is looking at $10 billion in assets and joint ventures on its balance sheet which could be sold off as a non-core assets in order to reduce net debt and protect its credit rating.
"We expect that [a] significant portion of that would be crystallized," Mittal told analysts in a call. He declined to provide a specific dollar value for how much might be raised from the sale of non-core assets.
Mittal, however, said there were a "few more [asset disposals] in the pipeline to be announced in the second quarter" and said that he expects net debt to fall below $22.5 billion by the end of June.

That's Awesome!
Sick 'em, Medusa, Sick 'em...
This is a discussion on Connecticut Man Threatens Girlfriend, Then Police With 9-Foot-Long Python within the Off Topic & Humor Discussion forums, part of the The Back Porch category; BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Bridgeport police said they arrested a city man after he ordered his pet to attack two officers. Lucky for them, 9-foot-long pythons ...
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Bridgeport police said they arrested a city man after he ordered his pet to attack two officers.
Lucky for them, 9-foot-long pythons aren't very obedient.
Police Lt. James Viadero said 21-year-old Victor Rodriguez was charged with threatening police and disorderly conduct after Monday's incident. No one was hurt.
Officers were called to Rodriguez's apartment on a report that he was going after his girlfriend with the pet reptile.
When the building superintendent opened the apartment door for the officers, Rodriguez allegedly told the snake, "Get them!", according to Viadero.
Rodriguez and his pet were both taken away: Rodriguez to jail on a $10,000 bond, and the albino python to the city's animal control shelter.
Do you think he might have been drinking?
Glock 27
That's Awesome!
Sick 'em, Medusa, Sick 'em...
There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil.
Who is John Galt?
Unlees the officers felt threatened by his command for the python to attack,I don't think the threatening police is gonna fly.I'm sure the officers reacted like this
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC .
When pythons are outlawed, only outlaws will have pythons.
I thought 8" was as big as they got......
Silly man, brought a snake to a gun fight.
I'm going to talk to some Bpt. PD folks when I go to court this week.
I'm going to recomend they issue knives, packages of breading and a deep fryer which can be powered by a car charger to deal with these pythons.
Snake. It's what is for dinner...
Pennsylvania State Police had a guy do that to them with a pet rattlesnake. Incident didn't end well for the actor or the snake.
"The liberty of the individual is no gift of civilization. It was greatest before there was any civilization." Sigmund Freud
Johnnie, the albino attack snake. Hm. I'm thinking: tequila.
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.
Thoughts: Justifiable self defense (A.O.J.).
Explain: How does disarming victims reduce the number of victims?
Reason over Force: Why the Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
for punishment, the judge should order that the dude be the meal for the 9 foot python. that should last for a good, long time. Strange things happen in Bridgeport, CT.
Mr. Rodriguez needs to learn how to speak parseltongue..
"embrace the suck" - our warriors in the sandbox... it implies that do the best you can in impossible conditions.
"no plan survives intact upon contact with the enemy" - wisdom of the Grunts.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – Former Northern Arizona Lumberjack Gabe Rogers was selected in the eighth round of the NBA D-League draft on Friday night by the Erie BayHawks.
Rogers completed his NAU career with the fifth-most points in NAU history with 1,422 and was a two-time All-Big Sky selection. Rogers scored 573 points in his final season as a Lumberjack for the second-best total in single season by a player.

National Doctors (Radio 4), marking 60 years of the NHS, was one of those dry-sounding documentaries that rather exceeded expectations. I wasn't expecting to laugh out loud, for a start, but this slickly edited history of GPs featured some brilliant lines. There was David Owen, recalling how his time as a young doctor had turned him to politics when he realised that he was treating symptoms of widespread social deprivation. His working conditions at patients' houses could be very cramped. "I remember having to deliver [a baby] with my bottom out of the window because there was no room," he said. It's an image that takes a while to subside from your mind.
But the undoubted star of the show was the brilliantly pithy Julian Tudor Hart. He remembered working as a young NHS doctor in a former workhouse. Husbands and wives, he explained, were only allowed to meet once a day. "I don't think any fandangling was allowed," he noted. Asked whether GPs were looked down on by NHS consultants, he replied: "Oh absolutely. GPs in coalmining communities in the 1950s, their rank was slightly higher than shit." In case anyone had missed his meaning, he added, bluntly: "We were despised."

Try witchvox maybe? Also maybe calling yourself a cult while technically correct, it is off putting to the people who you want to join your group. What are you guys about?
Any group that opens itself to seekers - regardless of path - is obligated to provide specific information about what they are, what they do, their credentials (if any) and a bit about the group's history and dynamic. Your profile says you're "Satanist and Wiccan" which is pretty broad. There is more than one Satanic path and there is more than one kind of religion calling itself "Wicca", there's authentic traditional Wicca which is quite specific (and does not include either blood or animal sacrifices) and there are the innumerable forms of Eclectic Witchcraft that often calls themselves "Wicca" too even though no two practice the same. As such, it's very difficult for Eclectics such as yourself, presumably your group, and seekers to find others who are truly like-minded.
Your group will save itself and others a great deal in wasted effort, frustration, and disappointment by being specific and clear on what is your practice, the group's profile, what it offers and what it seeks in newcomers. :)

Wow, it's almost been a year since my last diary entry was written. I guess bridge life takes up more time than you'd think.
I just wanted to write to tell everyone I still love them very much and I'm thinking about them. I thought about everyone a lot on Sunday, especially, mainly because I knew they were thinking about me. April was up all night (literally! She finished at 6am!) putting together a "Definitive Pet Anthology" (i.e. all the footage shot of us over the last 5 1/2 years). Most of the footage was shot for no reason, other than they knew they would want to watch it one day when we're all on the bridge and it's the only legacy they'll have left of us. My mommy had a hard time watching my footage. She misses me lots and lots, but she also still feels really bad that they couldn't do more for me after I got sick. I don't want her to feel bad and to cry everytime she sees pictures of video of me. That's not what I would've wanted on earth and it's not how I want to be remembered from the bridge. I hated it when people were sad. I'd go sniff them to see if they were OK and rub my face against theirs while purring and drooling on them.
I had such a good heart! I was not only loving but loved beyond measure. Instead of feeling guilty that they couldn't perform miracle surgery to prolong my life, I want them to think about how much they loved me and cared for me and make my life worth living in the first place. They rescued me from a life on the streets and gave me a home for 13 years. That's nothing to feel guilty about! I really hope one day they'll watch my anthology all the way through and only cry tears of happiness.
I finally got reunited with my brother Charlie last weekend! I feel like I've been on the bridge forever sometimes, and I really miss all my old companions from pre-bridge life. I have a little more company now, with Bro, Velvet, Brandy, and now Charlie. But I still miss my family. I just wish I could pop back down there from time to time to say hi to them, just to let them know I'm doing well. I hope they realize I'm still watching over them from up here in heaven, and now that so many of my friends have joined me, they'll be even better protected! Charlie was a good brother (he and I got along pretty well, and I was pretty much afraid of everything else). I'm glad to have him here with me again!
My family was watching old videos of me the other day, back before I got sick. I looked so bright and vibrant and colorful! My fur markings really popped out on camera! It's almost like you could reach through the TV screen and pet me! I wonder if my family can still remember what it felt like to pet me. It seems those memories become so distant so fast. That's one reason my aunt April shot so much video footage of us: She knew our days on earth are numbered and when we're gone, you can never have too much footage to remember us by. I know I'm greatly missed and if I could step down from the Rainbow Bridge to tell my family I'm OK, I would. But, I just have to be content to let the other animals try to tell them for me.

Strange noises
The 4-speed in my 87 chevy has been on its death bed for a while now, so I just got around to replacing it, and the clutch, a week ago. I had hoped that in addition to elimating the whinging, grinding noise that came from the lack of 'bearings' in the transmission, this would eliminate several of the other weird noises my chevy makes. It didn't. I am still stuck with a squeal on acceleration, and sometimes a metallic noise from the rear, that sounds almost like a fan blade hitting its housing. Both noises seem to be speed, acceleration, and turn related. Basically, it makes these noises when I take off from a stop or speed up quickly, mostly below 30 or 35 mph. It seems to also be embarrassment related, but that's probably because of a simple Murphy's Law Gremiln.
I have checked to insure that all bolts that we took off to change the tranny are tight, even though the sound was there before. I checked to make sure all the bolts on the driveshaft were tight, along with the shocks. The shocks are new, and I did replace the brake shoes. We have tried shaking the truck, jumping up and down in the bed, but the noises are only generated when in motion.
Any clues what this might be? Where should I go from here?
where is the squealing noise coming from and what part of the vehicle?
the only thing i can suggest is to inspect your u-joints and you might want to pull the cover off your rearend to check in there for anything scary. also, have you pulled your rear drums lately? i'm just wondering if maybe you have a bad shoe with a separted lining or something?
"Well done is better than well said." - Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)
Is it making the noise while sitting still?................engine related.
If only while moving, is it dependant in what gear it's in?
If the sound increases in each gear, it's in the clutch or tranny.
Otherwise it could be anywhere else in the drivetrain, brakes, wheel bearings etc.
Only when moving, it is based on speed, regardless of which gear I'm in. I really don't think that its my tranny, since it was making these same noises before and still after I put a new one in.
You mean it's dependant on wheel speed?
That's where I would be looking then.........brakes, wheel bearings, rear end etc.
hmmm... how much play should there be in the rear u-joint? I mean how far should you be able to turn it back and forth with the truck in neutral without moving the tires?
U-joint dosn't move at all in park.
Or with the trans in gear the U-joint dosn't move at all without moving the rear end. That is the connection between the engine/trans and the rear-end so it is a positive connection, NO SLOP! If you got slop you found your problem, change the U-joint or U-joints if both have slop.
Rat Rods Rule!
I don't know if it's the u-joint that's loose of if it's the rear end. I know that on most cars with the trasmission in 1st you can turn the rear wheels a little bit, but how much is normal?
The front u-joint is tight, but if I take it out of gear I can turn the drive shaft a little less than a 16th of a turn before the truck tries to move. I wonder if this is the joint, of if it is wear in the gears?
The joint would be some much cheaper...

Aggression and Violence | The German Shepherd
While German Shepherd dogs are often considered one of the most famous dog breeds, they are also one of the least well-understood. Common misconceptions about the German Shepherd Dog are rife in both the pet-owning and wider community, leading to plenty of unfortunate incidents of violence and neglect against these majestic creatures. While it is true that the German Shepherd's large size, powerful muscles, and fierce jaw make the canine quite an intimidating creature – one certainly capable of doing violence if necessary to defend his or her master against attack – this is categorically not the same thing as implying that German Shepherd dogs are in any way violent, uncontrollable, or dangerous beings. Rather, a well-trained German shepherd is far from aggressive and dangerous – it is German Shepherd Dogs, more than almost any other breed, that are called upon by police forces and military troops alike to serve with the same discipline and self-restraint that is asked of the human members of these forces.
German Shepherd dogs can certainly be trained as "attack" dogs under certain settings – but a German Shepherd dog that is brought up well, is loved, and is not abused is no more likely to engage in a wanton program of attack than is a similarly well-treated human. The dogs that you see on television or in airports working as "protection" or "security" dogs have been specifically trained for the purpose of being violent on command (and always obeying the demands of their human handlers), and are a far cry from the intelligent, warm, and loving German Shepherd dogs that have brightened many households and families. Do not be fooled by the myth of the German Shepherd dog's aggression – in real life, they are far from a dangerous breed.
