reconnected battery now the car chimes and i cant remove the key
so i had to remove the center console to replace it, and i disconnected the battery. when i reconnected it the car made the long chime that didn't stop until i put the key in the ignition, upon doing that the car start w/o any problems, but now i can't remove the key from the ignition cylinder w/o disconnecting the battery... any ideas? PLZ help!
what did you replace under the console? there are a few linkage pieces that can cause issues like this for the atx foci... not sure what you drive... but the car has to be firmly in park for the key to come out of the ignition.... safety deal... so if youve knocked linkage out of adjustment... or unhooked something... the car may think its still in gear but it shouldnt start technically if thats the problem... but i'd start there...
thanks, i actually sorted it all out, there is a little lock release button where you stick the key in well the little tab got jammed and came loose, so i just had to dissassemble the whole bloody thing, and put it back together. It works now =D
now my whole bottom interior is satin black =D and the car didnt blow up ( it was a concern)
nice job finding that problem, it would have been annoying to have to disconnect the battery all the time, haha jk

What would your name be if you were the kind of person who would be a National Public Radio correspondent? You don't hear any Mike Wilsons or Heather Browns on that network. If you want to speak in the same rarefied air as Korva Coleman or Renita Jablonski, you need a name that combines exotica and whimsy. And Lianablog has found the NPR name formula. Your first name is your real first name with your middle initial inserted into it wherever you choose. Your last name is the smallest town you've ever visited in a foreign country.

ITC Judge Recommends U.S. Xbox 360 Ban
Michael Hatamoto

Sender E-mail
An ITC judge recommends a U.S. ban for the Xbox 360, even though that seems highly unlikely
The Microsoft Xbox 360 game console should not be imported, and units on store shelves should be pulled, according to an International Trade Commission judge.
Last month, ITC Administrative Law Judge David Shaw found both the 4GB and 250GB editions of the Xbox 360 infringe on four Motorola patents. Specifically, the issue surrounds the H.264 codec which Motorola holds patents dealing with the video codec. However, Microsoft argues that H.264 should be more openly licensed.
Before the Xbox 360 can be banned, however, the ITC Board of Commissioners will double-check the ruling before a final decision is made. A deadline of August 23 has been scheduled, before any type of legal documents can be approved by Pres. Obama's administration to finalize the ban.
Meanwhile, Microsoft looks forward to the six-member commission ruling in August, and believes its product can continue to be available in the US.
In addition to being unfair to consumers, there is another major factor that needs to be considered after Shaw's ruling:
"Unlike judges at courts, ITC judges don't make the decisions: they merely recommend them. Their recommendations are very frequently not adopted by the Commission, the six-member decision-making body at the top of the ITC. Not only does the Commission overrule those judges with respect to the actual violations but the Commission also has the final say on remedies."
Furthermore, game studios and other companies reliant on the Xbox 360 can chime in to help persuade the commission from physically banning the Xbox 360.
Motorola had the Windows 7 OS and Xbox 360
banned in Germany
, which set a precedent that some analysts believed would lead to additional global crackdowns. In addition to this ongoing legal saga, Microsoft can celebrate
knowing it helped contribute
to the ban of Motorola Android-powered phones to the US consumer market.
"If they're going to pirate somebody, we want it to be us rather than somebody else." -- Microsoft Business Group President Jeff Raikes

i was fine tuning my UTEC yesterday, so i pulled out of a parking lot where i was making some changes. this 02 or 03 maxima GLE drives in front of me and floors his car while looking directly at me. now he was going south and i wanted to go north, but i said what the heck- this guy probably thinks his max is hot ish (i had one back in the day and i thought the same thing), so im going to go put this guy in his place.
so i follow him down this one road with stop signs and a school...and there are kids playing in the school lot and he is chriping his tires through every stop sign. i thought this was the stupidest thing ive ever seen, so i tried keeping up while remaining safe. so eventually, this street has a long straight. he peels out (as much as a max can) and hes off. im behind him at the stop sign, so i roll off the clutch and then by the time i go to 4th, im right behind him. we both make a left onto a busier street and i fly past him. he gets behind me (since im thinking im just going to go off and head home now) and waits. then he proceeds to drive across 2 lanes and make a turn in the completely opposite direction.
lol. ridiculous.

Mathematica Packages
in connection with my oo system for Mathemathica I implemented an
alternative method for calling functions in packages. The method is
especially important for calling the functions in objects, but it may also
be used outside objects, if the oo system is loaded.
The method has the advantage, that functions with the same name in different
packages may be used at the same time. No shadowing problems occur. The
contexts of the packages are not included in the context path.
The method is described in my documentation of the oo system on pages 4,5
on my web site:

Our groups and workshops are designed to support you through the demands of academic life. Our students
often say they find it beneficial to be part of a group where other people are experiencing similar difficulties.
There are many different reasons why counselling may be helpful.
You might be worried, depressed, confused or feeling bad about
yourself. There might be a problem in your family and friendships
or with your partner. Or you might be experiencing difficulties with
your work and exams.
Often people who come to counselling want to make some change to
their lives. Talking about what is on your mind can help you understand
yourself and discover more about yourself - both your strengths and your
weaknesses. Whoever you are, whatever your age, whatever the situation or
problem you are facing, it can help to talk things over in a safe,
non-judgemental and confidential environment.
The Wellbeing Service are a team of specialist mental health advisers,
counsellors and psychotherapists. If you feel you would benefit from support,
including counselling, please
contact us to book a welfare appointment.
In this appointment you can have an initial chat, in confidence, about the difficulties
you are experiencing and the support available to you.
Counselling aims to help you deal with, and overcome, problems and difficulties that are causing distress, making you feel uncomfortable or interfering with
your life at University. It can provide a safe and regular space for you to talk through and explore difficult feelings.
The counsellor will be objective and respect your views and although they will not usually give advice, they can help you find your own insight and
understanding of your problems. They will not make decisions for you, nor will they tell you what to do. As one of the aims of counselling is to help you
if you are confused, you do not have to be clear as to what your problem is, or indeed as to whether you have one or not.
Counselling can often involve talking about difficult or painful feelings and, as you begin to face them, you may feel worse
in some ways. However, with the help and support of your counsellor, you should gradually start to feel better. It can take a number of sessions
before the counselling starts to make a difference, and a regular commitment is required to make best use of the therapy.
If you feel that you would benefit from counselling, we will offer you an initial assessment with one of the specialist Wellbeing
Practitioners who can explore with you how what your current difficulties are and if counselling may be able to help you. If it is
felt that counselling is not appropriate, the Practitioner will explore with you other options for support.
We offer short-term counselling – that means that most students will be offered six sessions of counselling after their initial
assessment. Sessions last 50 minutes and are held at the same time and day every week. It is, therefore, important when accepting
your first counselling session to consider whether you can regularly commit to that time slot as regular attendance helps to provide
continuity in your relationship with your counsellor.
Your counsellor is here to provide you with a safe and confidential space in which you can be supported in exploring and expressing
your feelings without judgement.
Although it can be difficult talking about yourself especially if it is not something you usually do, most of the talking will be
done by you because you know your story better than anyone else and the information you provide will help you and your Counsellor in
piecing together what is happening for you and starting to make sense of things.
The University Wellbeing Service is bound by a strict confidentiality policy (.pdf). The service also operates in
accordance with the BACP's Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Information relating to the content of counselling sessions, including session notes, will not be seen by anyone outside the service (see 'Confidentiality Policy' link above for exceptional circumstances).
Clients of the service have the right to access any records kept on them under the provisions of the 1998 Data Protection Service, however all information remains the property of the University of Essex.
As part of the Wellbeing service, the counselling section continually monitors uptake of the service in relation to our student population.
Our Accessibility Strategy is available on request by emailing email@example.com
The University is generally only able to offer short-term counselling. If you are interested in having some longer term counselling or psychotherapy, you may want to discuss this
with your doctor (although please be aware there are often long waiting lists for NHS psychotherapeutic support).
Alternatively, the following local organisations are well established and accredited by the relevant professional bodies. The all operate a sliding scale of fees and can offer
some sessions at reduced cost for those on a low income:

Uber-popular Internet ad-blocking Firefox Add-on AdBlocker Plus got a new feature with the beta-test build of Adblock Plus 2.0, which was posted today: the ability to not block ads.
If it seems odd that an app called Adblock Plus – whose slogan is "annoyance-free web surfing – would change course to the extent not only of allowing some ads, but turning the function that allows them on by default, you're right. It is. Adblock Plus is one of the more useful of a handful of generally ineffective or awkward apps to block ads online. Opening a hole in it isn't a mortal sin, but it's certainly an invitation to let others commit them.
The change comes for a good reason, the developers insist.
By allowing ads that fit specific criteria that define them as "acceptable" and "non-intrusive," the developers claim to be supporting web sites that depend on advertising, but only do so with ads that are not intrusive or annoying.
"By doing this you support websites that rely on advertising but choose to do it in a non-intrusive way. And you give these websites an advantage over their competition which encourages other websites to use non-intrusive advertising as well. In the long term the web will become a better place for everybody, not only Adblock Plus users. Without this feature we run the danger that increasing Adblock Plus usage will make small websites unsustainable." – AdblockPlus 2.0 FAQ, Dec. 12, 2011
The ad-allowing feature ships with the default set to "Allow" because most users won't turn it on by themselves, because most won't change the default settings unless absolutely required to do so, according to the FAQ.
Also, advertisers won't be interested in switching to non-intrusive forms of advertising unless the majority of Adblock Plus users have the "acceptable" ads setting enabled, the FAQ said.
It's a decent argument, or would be if we weren't five years past the point at which advertising became irreparably intrusive and annoying – the primary reason Adblock Plus has an audience in the first place.
The problem with ads is not the pop-ups and flashing graphics and interstitials and all the other annoying little things that flare up when you're trying to get to something else.
The problem is the spyware and malware those ads carry – the flash cookies, bait-and-switch links, location-tracking spyware, browser-tracking schemes that work even on users who opt out, commercially circulated user-tracking profiles and all the other involuntary, deceptive little tricks that have become de rigeur among effective but unethical advertisers.
"Allowable" ads, as defined by Adblock Plus:
- "Allowable" ads are static – they have no animation or sounds
- By preference they are text-only, with no attention-grabbing images.
- They allow, at most, one script that will delay a page load; in particular, they allow only one DNS request.
- In the future, only advertisers that adhere to Do Not Track guidelines will qualify. "However, we are not yet in a position to enforce that requirement."
There are plenty of web sites that use non-intrusive, sometimes almost invisible advertising. There are also a lot that use every trick in the book to trap you on a site, track you through all your other online activities and swipe as much information as possible on what you read, what you do and what you search for.
Unlike the nosy neighbor or prying relative you try to dodge at family gatherings, these kinds of intrusions can't even pretend to have your best interest or that of the end users you support in mind. They're strictly guerilla surveillance operations with you as the target and your money or personally identifiable information as the prize.
None would hesitate to use the "Allow" function in Adblock Plus 2.0 to let their own snoops or pop-ups or other intrusive, annoying, exploitive attention-getters show up on your screen.
Adding a feature that allows a lower level of ad-blocking is not a particular sin on the part of the Adblock Plus developers.
It's naïve fantasy to believe allowing a few non-intrusive ads will encourage a whole industry to switch from being the Grinch's meaner, more manipulative brother peddling uncertified pharmaceuticals and sub-prime financial instruments to Cindy Lou Who sitting behind a handwritten sign selling lemonade.
The only reasonable response for Adblock Plus users is to download 2.0 and use the improvements in filters and scanning it promises.
Before you do, follow their directions to turn the Allow function to Off:
- In the address bar type about:config
- Scroll down to the field extensions.adblockplus.subscriptions_exceptionscheckbox
- Set Preference to False.
- Close.
If you already think you see too many ads using Adblock Plus, have a look at the list of other Adblock Plus about:config entries and shut off or blacklist sources you want to avoid.
If there are some you find acceptable, just whitelist them. You can do it in either about:config or by opening Adblock Plus Preferences and adding a filter to allow ads from that particular site.
It's a lot simpler to allow a few sources than allow them all and decide afterward which are annoying and which aren't.

text: Tracy Lawrence lends Boys & Girls a hand By Bill Lynch May 29, 2013 Story Share Courtesy photo Tracy Lawrence's performance Friday at the Clay Center will benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of Charleston and Parkersburg. WANT TO GO?Tracy Lawrence Boys & Girls Club benefitWHERE: Clay CenterWHEN: 7 p.m. FridayTICKETS: $23, $28 and $53INFO: 304-561-3570 or www.theclaycenter.orgCHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Country star Tracy Lawrence has trouble keeping track of his charitable work. Over the years, he's done quite a bit. Around Thanksgiving, he does an annual turkey fry for the Nashville Rescue Mission, and just a few days ago, he joined the relief effort for the people affected by the devastating tornado in Oklahoma.On Friday, the singer, who is known for hits including "Sticks and Stones," "Time Marches On" and "Find Out Who Your Friends Are," performs a benefit for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Charleston and Parkersburg at the Clay Center.It's a favor for a friend."I have a friend, Larry Steel. He's one of my golfing buddies I've been hanging out with for several years, and he's helped put this whole thing together," Lawrence said. "I try to be supportive of my friends and the things they're passionate about because they do the same for me. "The Boys & Girls Club is something Larry is passionate about, therefore I'm passionate about it, too."It's a good cause, and Lawrence is always willing to lend a hand. When the tornado blew through Oklahoma, he was glad to get involved with the relief."I grew up in 'Tornado Alley,'" he said. "I'm from Southwest Arkansas, and tornadoes were a constant thing in our lives growing up. I also have friends from Oklahoma City and have played up there a lot."As part of his contribution to relief efforts, Lawrence released an acoustic version of his song "Butterfly," on his website (www.tracylawrence.com). It's a cut off his upcoming record, "Headlights, Taillights and Radio," due out in August, and he hopes it will bring awareness to the Oklahoma Disaster Relief Fund."I wrote that song a couple of years ago, after the Joplin tornadoes," he said. "I was inspired to do something uplifting. "The song is about the angels who watch over people during trying times and even those that ferry us on to the other side when our time is done. "I wanted to put a song out there that would inspire people and give them hope."Though the song is a free download, Lawrence hoped it would uplift people and encourage them to contribute to the American Red Cross."It's a pretty powerful song," he added.Lawrence acknowledged that it's been a while since he's had a full country record out --about five years. Part of that, he said, has to do with his own creative tendencies."It's taken me longer to finish this record than any of my other albums," he said. "I could go back and remix two or three songs, but I just had to stop."The rest, he said, had to do with business issues. He had a company with his brother and that went sour. There were legal headaches. He started a new label and had to staff it. There was a lot of starting over just to get back to where he could focus on recording again. Still, he's happy with what he's got."It's more progressive than anything I've ever done," he said. "It's really heavy guitar, no steel guitar. It's got a lot of edgy rock 'n' roll country right in your face."That's kind of the sound of country music these days -- at least, he hears a lot of that sound out there. Some of that, he thought, had to do with the evolution of the music. Part of it is the marketing."It's what the kids want to hear, and they're the ones buying the record," he said.Lawrence said there's also been kind of an influx of rock and pop performers who've crossed over (at least temporarily) to country, people like Sheryl Crow and Darius Rucker who are just looking for a place to get their music played."I think it's great," he said. "Country music is very guitar-oriented right now, which has always been good for me."Reach Bill Lynch at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-5195.

A local dealer had a 2007 STi on the lot so I pulled in just to take a look at it and maybe take it out for a spin. I had no intentions of actually buying said car just wanted to take it out (I drive a '13 WRX). Turns out that this thing was a beast! It was built buy The Shop in Connecticut and had a claimed 550hp. The salesman showed me shop receipts totaling 18k worth of mods now I actually started to think this thing could be fast. Turns out it was fully built internals larger turbo and all supporting mods. After a little coercing I finally got the salesman to let me take it out for a spin. Holy f****** s***! This thing was fast! Almost too fast! (I said almost) But fun as hell.
The car was 29K, which i feel was over priced and would not consider buying a modded car such as this but for 10 minutes i guarantee I was the fastest thing on 4 wheels in a 50 mile radius. So that's how I spent my lunch break yesterday, just felt like sharing.

We're expanding!!!!!
After 8 years on Alberta Street.. We are Expanding!
|For those of you who have been following or visiting us here on Alberta St. you probably know just what a tiny (yet cozy) storefront we squeezed ourselves into. It has been our dream since we opened in 2009 to grow our retail footprint and we are thrilled to announce that the time has finally come! While we have greatly enjoyed having fantastic neighbors these last few years, the good folks at Sun Gate Studios have decided to move onto new adventures making the neighboring space available for our long-awaited expansion! We of course wish our friends at Sun Gate our most heartfelt blessings on their path ahead and are so grateful for this incredible opportunity.
So what does this mean for our beloved customers?
Not only will we finally be able to provide our patrons with an expanded dining area our menu will get some new mouthwatering breakfast, lunch and dinner items along with select cider, beer and wine! And as we grow in scope and size we also have some really exciting ideas for furthering our philanthropic mission and community outreach.
For those of you who have come to love our snug little storefront just as it is never fear! We intend to keep it largely the same as our dessert and ice cream destination while our morning pastries and cafe offerings move into the larger space next door.
Construction will begin once we take possession of the space on May 1st and we hope you will stay closely attuned to our progress. As this propitious endeavor gets underway we hope that we can count on our community's support and will be sharing ways for you to get involved as they present themselves!
And as anyone who has ever taken on projects like this well knows timelines are loose and fluid but it is our sincerest hope to be open in time to make the most of the summer season on Alberta!
Stay tuned and thank you, thank you, thank you for all your support over the years! It is only because of you that this milestone is even possible!
With endless gratitude and extreme jubilation,
Your friends at Back to Eden Bakery

Alejandra Costamagna - writer, Santiago, Chile
'IT is impossible not to think about the UN after Bush and Iraq,' she says. 'The UN would be quite a different thing without that background. The UN has become Bush's toilet. The UN has become an operator dealing with the disasters Bush has created in Iraq and Afghanistan.'
So what is the UN's current mission?
'The UN should take upon itself the task of trying to stop Bush's terrorist offensive. Try to correct the political imbalances of the US. This is not necessarily its main mission, or it was not until now. But there is urgency right now, given these circumstances. Protect human rights, keep a state of law in the world - that's urgent.'
And what about the UN and development?
'What should it do? See that global development is more democratic and is once more seen as an equitable goal for all in the world. I think the UN does try to advance in this understanding, but the political realities obscure its efforts. While I feel the UN is now totally subordinated to US policy, I also have the feeling that many things are moving and we, the citizens, don't have the slightest idea what's going on.'
Is the UN known among Chileans?
'Very little. People learn about the UN when they hear about wars and disasters. In a recent survey, most did not even know what "UN" stands for. Many know that Chile became a member of the Security Council when the Iraq war was about to start. Maybe because Chile opposed the war, people felt closer to it.'
Rafael Linares – street bookseller, Caracas, Venezuela
RAFAEL sells used books under a highway bridge in crowded downtown Caracas. All kinds of things are sold here, from books to pirate software, CDs, DVDs, clothes, food, beer. Traffic and music are heavy and noisy. Some people quietly play chess.
Before selling books, Rafael walked the streets pushing a cart with ice cream; before that he was an alcoholic who recovered and found religion. He lost an eye in a street fight. His arms have scars that suggest he's been in jail at some point.
Now he carries his Bible everywhere, along with the Venezuelan Constitution. He, like most poor people in Venezuela, is a staunch supporter of the President. Hugo Chavez, he says, was sent by God to look after the poor. The Constitution is Rafael's Bill of Rights - and Chavez its defender.
Do you know anything about UN agencies?
'It should get involved with people like us'
'No, not really. By the way, somewhere here I have a book about UNESCO [he starts searching in the huge metal box where he keeps his goods]. I think it's about starvation, I can't recall the title...'
Have you ever met a UN official?
'No, never.'
Can you identify any UN person?
'Kofi Annan. I think he's a balanced man. Also the Brazilian, the one who died in Iraq [Sergio Vieira de Mello, the UN Envoy], he seemed to be a simple man, a peace lover.'
What's your idea of a UN worker?
'They should be sensitive to the needs of the people. Honest people. I think they are specialists who know their profession, who did not get their jobs because of any influential friends, but due to their own merits.'
Do you know of any UN development projects?
'Never seen any one. Never ran into one.'
What should the UN do to get its projects known?
'It should get involved with people like us, as persons, find out what they want, what they need. Do social work with the others, research how hard is the daily struggle for life, how they fight. I am Christian, I love God. Every day I pray to God to have mercy on this country.'
What has the UN got to do with that?
'They should help this country find peace. We don't want bloodshed. We always had differences. Always there has been Magallanes and Caracas [a reference to baseball teams. Caracas is generally identified with opponents to Chavez; Magallanes is the country's most popular team and associated with the lower classes]. We can dissent in peace!'
Ramesh – vendor of periodicals and magazines, Delhi
SMILING through a face tanned mahogany by life on the streets of Delhi, Ramesh says that his biggest disappointment with the UN was its failure to prevent the devastation of Iraq, where he worked as a truck driver before the first Gulf War in 1991.
'The pictures I see of Iraq in these magazines sadden me. Iraq was a beautiful and prosperous country with intelligent hardworking people. My Iraqi employers in Baghdad were warm-hearted and generous and would often invite me to share their meals. I just hope they are alive and well.'

Usha John - teacher, Faridabad, India
Usha John - teacher, Faridabad, India
Usha is optimistic about the UN. But that is mostly because of the humanitarian work done by agencies like UNICEF and UNESCO – in a country with masses of impoverished, illiterate people.
Usha feels that India made an historic blunder by not getting itself a seat on the Security Council when it was possible. 'Look at them [Indian leaders] talking so excitedly now about an expanded Security Council when we all know it is not going to come about so easily...
'As a teacher I know that but for UNICEF initiatives in building awareness and interventions on such burning issues as widespread childhood malnutrition, discriminatory practices against the girl child and vaccinations, nothing would ever have been done...
'I was particularly moved by the UNICEF reports on the plight of infants and children in Iraq between the two Gulf wars, at a time when that country was placed under crippling UN sanctions... We now have problems teaching children in our schools about what the UN is all about – and surely the UN has strayed a long way away from what is written in the civics textbooks.'
Jenni Williams - women's rights activist, Zimbabwe
Jenni Williams is the National Co-ordinator of Women of Zimbabwe Arise (WOZA), a pressure group formed in Zimbabwe in 2004. With a membership of over 1,000, WOZA has staged peaceful demonstrations against the Government's infringement of human rights, particularly women's rights. Its members have been arrested, charged and detained under Zimbabwe's notorious Public Order and Security Act. Jenni Williams remains one of the few beacons of hope in a country where no more than lip-service is paid to the freedom of expression and association.
'My view is that the United Nations provides its member countries with a platform for the discussion and hopefully resolution of issues for the betterment of the world,' she says. 'In this way it would seem that the UN has a louder voice in the world; that it helps those without a voice. I believe the role of the UN is not restricted to representing the interests of its members alone, but a larger world community... I think more and more there has been an improvement in the work of the UN as it begins to raise its profile in terms of being a mediator in major crises. In that way, the role of the UN is beginning to be appreciated in the world...
'In Zimbabwe I feel the UN has not been able to represent us as people who have been abused by their government. I was abused outside the UN office some time ago and nothing was done. [There are] many others whose voices are never heard and whose plight is never documented. I feel the UN needs to refocus its core business of maintaining peace and promoting global development. It needs to look at its areas of weakness, like discrimination on racial and religious grounds. Above all, it has to tackle human rights more effectively. There are too many conflicts based on race and religion, such as the Darfur issue... However, there is room for unity in the world.'
Sheela Khazanchi - grandmother, New Delhi, India and refugee from Kashmir.
Sheela Khazanchi's earliest experience of the UN was of blue-bereted men buzzing about in jeeps in the rugged, coniferous terrain where the Line-of-Control (LoC) divides her native Kashmir between Pakistan and India.
'We had great faith in the United Nations Military Observers Group in India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP),' she says, 'but more than half a century later they are still there – and still observing.'
'Still there – and still observing'
In the mêlée before the UN arrived in 1949 to monitor the ceasefire along the LoC – where the armies of India and Pakistan had fought each other to a standstill – Sheela lost her grandfather, Raghunath Tikoo. He, like many others, was caught on the wrong side and kidnapped, presumed killed by kabailis (Pathan marauders).
'My grandmother died grieving a few years later and the rest of the family reconciled itself to the idea that they were never going to see the man they loved so much and who was their breadwinner,' says Sheela, who now lives in suburban New Delhi.
In the light of subsequent events, the experiences of her family, tough as they were, seem like minor tragedies. The LoC had to be redrawn twice after full-scale wars in 1965 and 1971. There have been several fierce battles since. The latest was at Kargil in 1999. The two countries threatened to annihilate one another with nuclear weapons. The following year they amassed almost a million troops and were dangerously close to a third war.
'We now hear,' says Sheela, 'that there is a possibility that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf, who met in New York on the sidelines of this year's UN General Assembly in September, may finally decide to convert the LoC into an international border and settle the dispute once and for all. If that happens I may be able to see my homeland once again in my lifetime.' Subsequent moves by the Indian Government to withdraw 45,000 troops have renewed hope that a resolution may finally be achievable.
Inviolatta Moyo - development worker, Zimbabwe
Inviolatta is the Executive Director for the Western Region Foundation, which helps women, youth, orphans and community-based organizations in areas of health, water, HIV/AIDS, education and income generation. It operates in the Matabeleland and Midlands provinces of Zimbabwe and receives some funding from UN agencies.
'I always assumed that the work of the UN was distant from the ordinary people,' she says. 'But interacting with UN personnel on the ground gave a new insight about its work.
'I always assumed the UN was distant from ordinary people'
'I think, first and foremost, it must be more proactive and less reactive in acting on disaster, both natural and human-induced. The UN must harness resources more swiftly and effectively through its structures to ensure that it attends to peacekeeping operations and relief situations in terms of food, water and epidemics. At times its intervention comes late when a country has been reduced to ashes or people cannot be saved from a crisis. Yet the UN is supposed to be a peacemaker and a builder. The UN ought to increase its poverty alleviation support for vulnerable groups, particularly children and the aged.'

I, for one, an tired of trying to be something I am not. My hair is not straight. My hair is not curly. My hair is not consistent. My hair is my hair.
We put ourselves through the most hell because we are in neither category and we don't know what to do with our hair. If you are awavy then you already know that your hair is schizophrenic, you can be a bouncy curly girl one day and a sleek straighty the next, and a pouffy fuzz ball more often than not.

292 cam on airboat direct drive
putting an inline 292 on airboat. prop will turn 3000 max. if I spent money got a cam made. how much could I increase horsepower at 3000. Would it be 10 horse power or more. maybe horsepowr is not the hole ball of wax. maybe its torque. any thoughts.
I know you can get lots of horse power by increasing rpms, but don't have that luxury.
F-bird... that's a fine idea, but airboats like to explode props above about 3000. He's limited to about 3000 prop RPM.
If you're intent on sticking with a direct drive, your engine needs to peak its HP at 3000. That means a tiny cam. If you increase your HP at 3000 rpm, then you will (like F-bird says) increase prop pitch to keep it at 3000.
For the most part, direct drive applications that want more power require more cubes. The best way to increase torque (and consequentially HP) when the RPM limit is fixed is to increase displacement. That's why most direct drive airboats use big blocks. Most small block airboats with big power need to use a reducer gearbox. That way you can spin the engine to 5000 and make nice power while maintaining safe prop speed.
A gearbox is the first thing that popped into my mind. Heck, set it up with a 3-speed manual trans (low buck) and run it in second gear. You could also run it in first gear for low-speed, high-torque. Or run it in reverse to back up. "Hey dude, check it out, my airboat backs up". Build the motor at 9.5:1 with a tight squish and Crane 204541 cam, 216/228, 112, 0.530"/0.560" power range 1800-5400.
For coming right off the crank to the prop, the stock cam will probably produce the best torque numbers at 3000.
call dave at waterthunder performance his site is www.waterthunderperformance.com
Make the tq curve run parallel to the prop efficentcy curve, whil making it as high as you can under 3000prm.
Thanks for the replys, I thought about a gearbox (reduction drive) Right now I am running a 250 inline it does surpriseingly well. I have a 292 on the garage floor and ready to put in boat. will post video one day. I do have an adjustable pitch prop. currently set were it turns max 2600 rpm.

Re: Simultaneous difference equation
Search for DSolve (and NDSolve, I suppose) in Help.
Plus, check the rules for writting code in Mathematica...
an equation of the form a_1*y(t)=a_2*x(t) is nonsensical in Mathematica..
a1 y[t]==a2 x[t] is much better.
1) Anything with an underscore in it is a pattern... so a_1 is a pattern
called a that has head 1, for instance 1[argument], NOT the variable a1

My clients are NOT web savvy and need a fairly robust back end. I have worked with and love the following themes: Avada U-Design Karma Striking
I think that U-Design is awesome, but might be too much for them to master. So, here is what I would like:
A robust easy to use back end Adjustable slider unlimited color schemes Variety of font choices well supported and well built browser compliant
I appreciate any suggestions and advice.
- Shameless self-promotion begins --
This is not exactly what you are looking for, but it covers all the pages you want on your client's site in a single-page design, including the slider – http://themeforest.net/item/visia-responsive-one-page-retina-wordpress-theme/5602067
The backend is top-notch as well

I have had silicone implants for 21 years. No issues, still feel soft and look nice. My last mammogram showed an enlarged lymph node, doc believed filled with silicone. They are probably leaking or seeping through, and way past time for maintenance.
I was so young when I got them (19) I don't even remember what I looked like before. I don't have any before photos as my previous ps passed away and I coud not get my medical records. I would say I was a very small A. I am now a 34 C. I am 5'8", 124, small frame. Even though I do not want to be flat chested, I know they need to be removed and do not want a replacement. I have 4 kids, youngest 2, and my health is not worth big boobs. I am most scared about how I will look after, sunken, flat...not quite sure.
As for the surgery scared about the drains and infection. My mom will be here for 5 days to help then I am back on my own with the kids and hubby. I will post updates on how my surgery goes. If I can figure out how to post pics, I will. I know I will be relieved to have these out of me once I am well and healed. I can't say I won't miss having some breasts though, hoping for a nice outcome.

Rappers Goldie Lookin' Chain, as well as Feeder and Funeral For A Friend are booked for the Full Ponty, Pontypridd.
An 11,000 capacity tented area is to go up at the town's Ynysangharad Park for the event on May 27-28.
Last year, Tom Jones held an open-air concert in the park for 20,000 people, yards from where he grew up.
Organisers of the Full Ponty say the event will have a supporting fringe programme of world music artists, street entertainers and alternative comedians hosted by several venues across the town.
Feeder's Chepstow-born vocalist, Grant Nicholas said: "We're really pleased to have been asked to headline the first Pontypridd festival, it looks like being a fantastic weekend.
"We had a brilliant time playing Cardiff last December and can't wait to get back to Wales".
The event is being run by the events arm of the Pop Factory production house in Porth.
In May 2005, Tom Jones performed hits from throughout his 40-year career at the concert in the park to mark his 65th birthday.

1954 Chevrolet Engine Issue
I'm working on a 1954 Chevrolet with the 235 inline 6 cyl. There is fire to the engine, however, it will not run. It is backfiring out the carburetor and that is it. Could it be a timing issue, or what?
Timing or ignition wire fowl up. Find TDC no.1. Then rewire cap proper firing order.. Most 6's 153 624..
check the cap for carbon tracing carefully.. shut my '51 235 off 1 day and couldn't restart. pop and crack every once in a while, and I replaced points, wires, but still had no go.. checked distributor cap and it had bad carbon tracing, so I threw an older 1 on it and it ran
It could be the points or condenser are bad, the points dwell could be off.

Google's Mobile Search Adds "Open Now" Filter
When you're on the move, there's often no sense finding local businesses that are closed. That's the impetus behind a new feature that Google has added to the iPhone and Android-powered devices: a tool to filter results that are open now.
After doing a search, the new "Show only businesses open now" filter shows up above the search results. After clicking to use the filter, the corresponding search results also include the hours that each business is open. (They also include a disclaimer warning searchers that the information might not be accurate.)
It's a useful tool, but somewhat limited by Google's ability to get exact hours of local businesses — which means businesses that have taken the time to claim their Google Places listing and include what times they're open get a little benefit over those that haven't.
We're listening.

Not a bad gun. gotta keep her nice and clean so she keeps on running for ya
As for a .22 conversion, I think the one made by Beretta is better than the ciener because it has a safety in the same location as the 9mm slide and the ciener doesn't even have a safety. My Beretta made kit is very accurate and everything works the same.
I found it funny about the movies mentioned featuring this gun. I would add Boondock Saints to the list. Two 92s each and with suppressors.
The Internet Movie Firearms Database...
The 92FS has one of the biggest lists of movies where featured.
that was a good sized list of good movies.
I have read a couple reviews on the stoeger cougar. Sounds like a great bang for the buck gun. But it looked different on the website.
I love my Beretta 96. Yeah, not exactly a 92, but they are fraternal twins.
I bought a Taurus .40 a while back, and I have put plenty of rounds through it, but I always come back to the Beretta. I think my next purchase will be a 92 or a Cougar so I can practice with the same great design a bit cheaper.
You made the right choice. The Sig P226 and Beretta 92FS are my favorite 9mm's, the Sig has a little advantage due to the incredible trigger, but the Beretta is a close second.

With the world's finance ministers, central bankers and development experts gathered in Washington for the spring meetings of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, the mood is certainly aspirational.
Indeed it may be aspiration overload – with so many colliding goals and agendas and communiques it is difficult to separate what's important but unlikely, what's just talk, and what might actually get traction in the real world.
Because it's all important.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew calls for universal women's empowerment. World Bank President Jim Yong Kim calls for universal education. Singapore's rock star finance minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam frets about the fate of the next generation. IMF managing director Christine Lagarde just frets.
"What we need is a full-speed global economy -- growth that is solid, sustainable, balanced, but also inclusive and very much rooted in green developments," she said at an opening news conference on a day when her voice competed with dozens of others at seminars and panels on topics as diverse as the Arab Spring and the future of the IMF. It's Davos comes to D.C. – academics and investors like Nouriel Roubini holding forth on world megatrends while Bloomberg television and the BBC stage live coverage and marquee interviews.
It's as if the actual governance of the two institutions – the purpose of the whole affair – has become an afterthought.
"There is a point of diminishing returns," to all the side events that have grown up around the biannual meetings, as different divisions within the two organizations, outside civil society groups and others compete for attention, said Merrel Tuck-Primdahl, a World Bank spokesperson. "We are competing with ourselves," she said.
Thursday afternoon the World Bank alone held major events on the importance of protecting women's economic rights, meeting universal education goals, and incorporating the value of ecosystems into economic analysis. The IMF had its own agenda underway as well.
It's a huge week also for the think tanks – with the Brookings Institution, the Peterson Institute for International Economics, the Bertelsmann Foundation and others battling for attention, and so many central bank governors and finance ministers lined up to speak they all sort of cancel each other out.
Why give Mark Carney, of Britain by way of Canada, any more credence than Lorenzo Bini-Smaghi, late of the European Central Bank but now a free agent? Is that Stan Fischer at the coffee stand? Which of a half dozen possible governments is he working for now?
Work does get done. Communiques will be issued by the World Bank and the IMF, and other organizations like the Group of 20 major economic powers and the G24 committee of developing nations. They may even be of substance. Kim, for example, is expecting an endorsement of his broad strategic goals for the bank; the G24 endorsed a plan by Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – the so-called BRICS nations – to set up their own development bank as a complement/competitor to the World Bank.
But the real value may be at a quieter level beyond all the panel discussions and photo ops.
Outside the public eye, people like Kim, Lagarde and Lew are holding dozens of one-on-one meetings – "speed dating" is how former Treasury official Scott Morris, now an analyst at the Center for Global Development, refers to it. It's in those sessions that Egypt tries to make progress on a hoped-for IMF loan, or Indonesian minister Mari Pangestu lobbies to become director general of the World Trade Organization, or U.S. officials get private estimates of China's shale gas reserves.
That is the grunt work of economic diplomacy that won't be broadcast on the jumbotron that the World Bank has erected outside its headquarters.
That's reserved for advice on global warming.

Staples or screws on plywood subfloor? And other questions....
We just ripped out our ceramic floor and cement board down to 3/4 tongue an dgroove wood plank. There was shrinkage of this board and not totally firm as lots of springyness. Right now we are putting on 5/8 smooth plywood with the intention of putting cheap vinyl on for a short while and then a glue down cork floor. I have several questions...
1. What size nails, staples, or screws? We put in some screws in the plywood and it was hard to get then a little countersunk. They were either too high or were being countersunk too low. Some of the heads were popping off. We were using 1 5/8 construction screws which i thought was too long and i thought 1 1/4 was too short. I called 2 stores in town and they don't carry 1 1/2 inch screws. Frankly, i was worried that the 1 5/8 might hit my plumbing in the basement. There is A LOT of plumbing in my basement. There has got to be an easier way.
2. What do you use to fill dents and where the plywood meets?
3. How close do you butt the plywood? My local menards said to put them tight together. Though i have heard other advise.
4. Is the plywood sufficient for glue down cork? Or do i need to put a luan down later?
Thanks for all the advise.
So i started putting in some screws and about 1 out of 3 were hitting dead space and i had to take them out. This is a pita. This is happening because of the shrinkage of the wood over 60 years i would guess. So, onceagain, does anyone have any advise for me? I put 3 screws into a corner of the plywood and it didn't hit anything. Now, especially, the corners need to be tight. Please help

Obamacare may suffer 'meltdown,' Manchin says, endanger Democrats' control of Senate in next election
WASHINGTON — President Obama's health care law could have a "meltdown" if ongoing problems with the program are not resolved, a Democratic senator said on Sunday.
Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, who has backed delaying a penalty for people who do not enroll for health insurance in 2014, told CNN that a transitional year is needed for the complex health care program, commonly known as Obamacare, to work.
"If it's so much more expensive than what we anticipated, and if the coverage is not as good as what we had, you've got a complete meltdown at that time," Manchin said on the network's "State of the Union" program. "It falls of its own weight, if basically the cost becomes more than we can absorb."
The White House has been scrambling for months to control the damage from the botched Oct. 1 rollout of the law, formally called the Affordable Care Act.
There have been complaints from consumers about higher premiums because of new standards under the law, as well as lingering problems with HealthCare.gov, the Web portal used to sign up for insurance.
Manchin said Senate Democrats who are up for re-election next year are "feeling the weight" of the program's woes, and the party could have trouble keeping its majority in the chamber.
Republicans have been highlighting the law's difficulties as they seek to gain the six seats they need to win control of the 100-member Senate.
"It needs to turn around," Manchin said of Obamacare. "I'm not going to say that I think we will lose (the Senate). It's going to be extremely challenging. We have some very good people who are truly there, I believe, for the right reason. They're going to be challenged for the wrong reason."
Obama acknowledged on Friday that the bungled start of the health care exchange was his biggest mistake of the year.
His public approval numbers have dropped to record lows as a result of the website's flawed debut.
The president said more than 1 million people have signed up so far for coverage under Obamacare through HealthCare.gov, which services 36 states, and 14 state-run marketplaces.
A day earlier, Obama's administration said people whose insurance plans were canceled because of the law can claim a "hardship exemption" to the requirement that all Americans have coverage by March 31 .
Manchin, a conservative Democrat whose state of West Virginia has been increasingly trending Republican, has made no secret of his frustration with the program's fits and starts.
Last month, he introduced legislation to delay by a year the $95 penalty for failing to sign up for health insurance, saying Americans should not be penalized while Obamacare is going through its "transition period."
Manchin is not up for re-election next year, but some Democrats who are have urged changes to the program, such as extending the open enrollment period beyond the March 31 deadline.
One third of the Senate is re-elected every two years.

Hey Guys,
i've two Lenovo R61 - both with Nvidia 140m in it.
The first one's gpu is completely defect - only beeping @ bios time - no screen.
The second one has many Error (vertical lines - blank screen, ...) - see my Thread http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/R-Series-ThinkPad-Lapt
I think both are based on the nvidia g86m Problem.
Can anyone help me? Some sign of good will by lenovo?
Would be great.
My Thinkpad R61's video card just failed. I was using the nVidia Quadro NVS 140M which is based on the 8400M-GS, and has been known to be faulty. It has all the symptons related to the Nvidia GPU meltdown problem .
It all started very randomly, I was just surfing the web not runnying any GPU intensive applications when my screen started to flicker. It got worse and worse and then it just shutdown. When I restarted my laptop, it would only show some vertical colored lines that basically look the same as this:
I am really not sure whether or not Lenovo took the same path as HP and Dell and extended the warranty. I really hope they did, because otherwise a lot of us who bought the NVS 140M video card are going to be majorly screwed, since the video card is not a component you can just replace as you would do with a hard rive or memory.
Any info related to this and thinkpads would be greatly appreciated.

That was "us" then: the can-do spirit that enabled average guys that cared for one another to do the things that define moments of greatness.
Submitted by Jeremiah Johnson, SHTFPlan:
The current world situation is grim, and the predilection of the results seems to sway heavily in favor of the ruling elites, those nabobs who are ruthlessly trying to dominate and enslave us. In no other time in history has the fate of the known world been absolutely at the brink of precipices human. Akin to Eloi and Morlocks in the film, "The Time Machine," we are heading toward two separate destinies…the enslaved and the enslavers. Never before has the technology existed to destroy the world andthe technology to create virtually unlimited surveillance, to the purpose of dominating the world.
The dominance is far more, however; far greater than can be measured in simple geography or one singular culture. The paradigm seems to be leaning toward the dystopia outlined in Orwell's "1984," with the creation of three super-states and a contested piece of territory that also served to justify the complete social order and economy of the three states: property that was never truly controlled.
We are even beyond that, now, with the rise of the drones and the mapping technology to be able to see a dime in the Amazon jungle with the cameras and satellites that exist. We have been censused with GPS's, the newer cars have the "black box" to record data, the NSA built that monolithic data collection center to record e-mails and telephone calls, there are cameras on every intersection recording with facial recognition software and license plate identifiers.
The data from cameras in shopping malls, grocery stores, restaurants, public buildings, schools, convenience marts…all of these places ad infinitum are recording and "sharing" data with their "partners" in law enforcement and government. Drones are recording, satellites are recording, and even our appliances, computers, and cell phones are recording and storing, monitoring, and listening.
By all indicators, we're standing upon that precipice looking into the abyss of the next dark ages… with "dark" better describing the character and lack of humanity of the coming world systemic collapse. The darkness referring to the character of men's hearts, not a lack of technology. Just as in "1984" our technology is not meant to serve men and make it easier on mankind: it is meant to keep us corralled and under control, with the advances in technology that do improve human life and conditions being reserved for the elites. A film that characterized this type of society was "Elysium," where the planet Earth was basically a fourth-world garbage heap, and the oligarchs and controllers lived in an aseptic, controlled, orbiting "world," free of the ravages of the savages: the ultimate "gated" community.
So, with all of this doom and gloom, you may ask, what…

The women's tennis match between 10th-ranked Francis Marion University (17-0) and eighth-ranked Clayton State University (15-1) was postponed by rain on Sunday and has been rescheduled for Monday, April 14, at 1 p.m. on FMU's Kassab Courts.
The Francis Marion baseball team's come-from-behind 9-8 win over North Georgia College & State University on Sunday was the 900th win in the 36-year history of the program. The team's first win was a 6-5 victory over Pfeiffer College on March 12, 1973. The Patriots' all-time record now stands at 900-589-2.
The Patriot baseball team moved up four spots to 23rd in this week's Collegiate Baseball Magazine NCAA Division II Top 30 poll released on Monday (March 31). Dating back to the 2005 season, the Patriots have now appeared in 59 consecutive national polls
FMU has only two home sporting events this week. The Patriot baseball team will play host to Georgia College & State University for a key three-game PBC series with a doubleheader on Saturday at 1 p.m. and a single game on Sunday at 1 p.m.
FMU senior runner Codi Knoch set a school-record for the women's 3,000-meter run at the recent Shamrock Invitational Track and Field Meet hosted by Coastal Carolina University. She finished with a time of 11:17.74, besting the previous mark of 11:26.50 set by Emily Owens in 1996. Knock also owns the school record in the 5,000-meter run.
FMU softball pitcher Michaela Wolf defeated USC Aiken 8-0 on Saturday to become the first pitcher in the program's history to have two 20-win seasons. The sophomore southpaw was 21-10 as a freshman and has a 20-5 mark this season.
FMU senior shortstop Greg Phelps owns a nine-game hitting streak and has hit safely in 35 of 38 games this year. This season, he hit in the opening 26 games (34 altogether including eight games at the end of the 2007 season), then went hitless (0-for-11) in a three-game series with Lander University, and has now hit in nine straight.

The attacker's goal lit up Stade de la Route de Lorient before Zlatan added a late second, as les Parisiens continue to close in on the title
With nearly an hour gone the match looked flat, yet Menez, who had endured a frustrating game to that point, took it upon himself to carve past four challenges before sliding a composed finish past Benoit Costil to secure the points for Carlo Ancelotti's much-changed side.
In stoppage time, Zlatan Ibrahimovic made it 2-0 with a finish from little more than a yard out after substitute David Beckham clipped a ball across the box.
It was clear both from the team selection, which saw the likes of Thiago Silva, Lucas and Ezequiel Lavezzi benched, and the performance of PSG early on that minds had already turned partially towards the much-hyped midweek encounter, as Rennes enjoyed the better of the first half.
Sadio Diallo drew a good save from Salvatore Sirigu after a poor defensive header from Gregory van der Wiel, while Fantamady Diarra also drew a smart block from the Italian. Just before the break Jonathan Pitroipa smashed an effort just wide.
Ibrahimovic was present in PSG's starting XI and was the team's major threat. Nevertheless, the lackluster nature of the Swede summed up his side's performance and this was typified when he finished meekly after he expertly turned Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik.
At halftime Ancelotti introduced Beckham in place of the disappointing Marco Verratti, while the general tempo of the visitors' play was lifted.
Menez, in particular, looked a good deal more dynamic and even before his wonderful goal he had threatened with a shot just over.
In the minutes after PSG had finally made the breakthrough it looked likely to fashion a second. Costil did well to deny Gameiro after Ibrahimovic's miskick dropped kindly to him in the box, while the forward was also close to converting a Maxwell delivery from the left.
It was, however, Rennes which did much of the late running. PSG's defending late on varied from the haphazard to the excellent, with Camara saving Sirigu's blushes after he fumbled a cross and Van der Wiel making a key intervention when Anders Kondradsen burst into the box.
The hosts looked rather toothless throughout this encounter, and once PSG had grabbed the lead it appeared largely comfortable, although a Julien Feret shot from range did have Sirigu scrambling before Ibra finally put the game away.
Victory means that Ancelotti's outfit has taken another big step towards a first title in nearly two decades, while it also provides an excellent platform for its trip to Barcelona, which has been the team's main focus for the last week.

Tony Hawk, Christian Hosoi, Kevin Staab, Buck Smith, Mike McGill and FriendsBring Back the '80s With Style
The Quiksilver All '80s All Day Vert Challenge took place last Friday, January 7 in front of a crowd of 2,000 fans at Surf Expo at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. The skaters on hand included Tony Hawk, Christian Hosoi and many other '80s skateboarding legends, decked out in colorful '80s gear and fashion.
In conjunction with the All '80s All Day Event, The Smithsonian's National Museum of American History was presented with a skate deck ridden by legendary skateboarder, Tony Hawk, at the closing ceremony. The board, a 1986 Tony Hawk pro model Powell-Peralta deck, was first ridden in competition by Hawk in the mid-1980s, and will be featured in a touring version of the National Museum of the American Indian's "Ramp It Up: Skateboard Culture in Native America" hosted by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service beginning in April of 2012.
"It is a huge honor to have my skateboard included in The Smithsonian and it's something I will proudly share with my children in the years to come." Hawk continues, "I'm also happy that The Smithsonian has recognized skateboarding as an important part of our country's culture."
After a day full of brightly colored outfits, friendly competition, and lots of '80s reminiscing, the final results for the Quiksilver All '80s All Day Vert Challenge were as follows:
1. Tony Hawk
2. Andy Macdonald
3. Mike Frazier
4. Christian Hosoi

DENVER, Colo. – Following a Senior Day win over conference rival and in-state foe Grand Canyon on Saturday, two of the Northern Arizona swimming & diving team's underclassmen are the class of the Western Athletic Conference this week. Sophomore Kendall Brown and freshman Alexa Geiger were rewarded with the WAC Women's Swimmer of the Week and Diver of the Week honors respectively on Tuesday after helping the Lumberjacks to a 168-125 victory over the Antelopes. It marks the second time this season that the Lumberjacks have swept the weekly conference awards.
Brown recorded two victories and set a Wall Aquatic Center pool record in the 800 freestyle. Her 18 points proved to be critical in the closely contested dual meet and she got things started with a dominating victory in the 1500 short course meter (SCM) freestyle. She finished with a time of 17:09.42, over 18 seconds better than Emma Lowther who came in second, and her 800 split time of 8:59.96 broke the previous pool record of 9:00.02 held since 2005. Her 1500 SCM freestyle time converted to a 1650-yard free time of 16:50.30, which is now the fastest in the conference by nearly three seconds. Brown then won the 400 free with a time of 4:22.94, besting GCU's Iryna Glavnyk by a little over a second. Her 400 SCM time converted to a 500-yard free time of 4:56.16, which is the third fastest time in the WAC behind only her teammates Lowther and Caitlin Wright.
Geiger had her best day of her freshman season in the Lumberjacks' final competition before the WAC Championships highlighted by a career-day on 3-meter. She earned a NCAA Zone Meet qualifying score of 309.97, her second of the season, placing first among the NAU divers. Her score smashed her previous season-best of 238.87 and propelled her to fourth in the conference on 3-meter. Geiger also climbed one spot to third in the WAC on 1-meter with a new season-best score of 282.97, which ranked second to her teammate Chelsea Jackson.
The WAC awards are the first of the careers for both Brown and Geiger. Geiger is the third Lumberjack diver to be honored by the WAC this season and Brown is the second NAU swimmer.
The Lumberjacks will see the Antelopes and the rest of their conference opposition at the WAC Championships in San Antonio, Texas from Feb. 26-March 1.
