Live Commentary
Thanks for joining me, Mohammed Ali, for tonight's Confederations Cup games. I'm sure you've enjoyed it, I know I have. Stick around on Goal with reports and ratings from tonight's superb encounter. Until next time.
Japan take on Mexico, having earned the respect of the footballing world tonight in this all-time classic. Italy tussle for first place against Brazil in Salvador. Both games kick of simultaneously at 21:00 CET on Saturday.
Unbelievable. Goals, own goals, Buffon possible red, and Kagawa and Okazaki hitting the woodwork left right and centre. Just unfathomable, really. Italy are into the semi-finals, Japan are heading home.
Japan were brilliant. So were Italy. A footballing classic, one of the best games in the Confederations Cup. Congratulations to the Azzurri, commiserations to the Samurai Blue. But what an amazing encounter.
90' + 3'Goal-kick for Japan. One last time for the Samurai Blue - but surely that's it....
90' + 2'Buffon thought about coming for that, but stayed on his goal-line, but the ball sails out for a goal-kick. Balotelli goes down - presumably of cramp.
90' + 1'SubstitutionMakoto Hasebe Kengo Nakamura
90' + 1'Cross coming in from the left, and almost catches out Buffon. Havenaar causing havoc in the box, and it's a corner. CAN IT BE?!
90'Yellow Card Yasuyuki Konno
90'Into three additional minutes here at the Arena Pernambuco. I don't want it to end.
89'What a game, I cannot stress this enough. Japan do deserve at least a draw for their efforts. Such a cruel ending. They will go out of the Confederations Cup if they do not get at least a draw.
89'What a game, I cannot stress this enough. Japan do deserve at least a draw for their efforts. Such a cruel ending. They will go out of the Confederations Cup if they do not get at least a draw.
88'GOOA-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! IT'S OFFSIDE! Unbelievable call from the referee, as Yoshida taps into an empty net from a corner, which cannons off the crossbar. Heartbreak for Japan. The roof was about to explode!
86'Assist Claudio Marchisio
86'Goal Sebastian Giovinco
GOAAAL! ITALY 4-3 JAPAN! I don't believe it. Superb pass from De Rossi into Marchisio, who instantly squares the ball towards Sebastian Giovinco. That was brilliant. The Azzurri lead, the Samurai Blue are on the verge...
86'Say what you like about Cesare Prandelli - but he's made a few fantastic changes tonight, as well as masterminding the Azzurri's revival soon after half-time. What a coach!
83'Kagawa finds and threads a ball towards Okazaki, whose overhit pass cannot exactly locate Mike Havenaar on the far side. Time is ticking.
82'Unbelievable stuff. What a game. What a chance. This will possibly go down as the greatest Confederations Cup game in history since its inception. Fantastic play from Japan, who still require a fourth.
81'OKAZAKI!!! Oh dear me, how are Japan not ahead? Lost for words, this. Unbelievable football being played here. Okazaki with a shot, off the post, and Kagawa header bounces off the floor, off the crossbar and out!!
79'SubstitutionRyoichi Maeda Mike Havenaar
78'SUBSTITUTION: Japan - Mike Havenaar on for Ryoichi Maeda.
76'HASEBE! Wow, that should've been 4-3 there. Amazing strike. Balotelli loses the ball, Yoshida tees up the captain on the edge of the area, and it's a piledriver. Just over the bar. Wow. Wow. Wow.
75'Last 15 minutes of the game here, after a disappointing Azzurri free-kick is fired behind for a goal-kick. And I think I speak for everyone when I say, we don't want this to end!!
74'Goal's Cesare Polenghi on Twitter: Endo celebrates his assist against Italy by drinking water from a bottle. He is cooler than Balotelli, c'mon.
73'SubstitutionAtsuto Uchida Hiroki Sakai
73'BALOTELLI!! Unbelievable. Almost a fine Balo goal there, as De Rossi fires a superb ball into the path of the Milan forward, but after handballing, he attempts to fire the ball past the onrushing Kawashima. Ref rightly spots the infringement though.
72'SUBSTITUTION - Japan: Hirokai Sakai replaces Atsuto Uchida for the Samurai Blue.
71'This is the best game of the Confederations Cup by far, just amazing.
70'Wow, funny how much a goal changes a team's confidence. Japan on it once more, with Keisuke Honda embarking on a mazy run throughout the midfield before testing Buffon with a stinging effort. This is brilliant.
69'Assist Yasuhito Endō
69'Goal Shinji Okazaki
GOOOOOOOAL! ITALY 3-3 JAPAN! THEY'VE PULLED IT BACK AGAIN! Superb free-kick from Yasuhito Endo into the path of Shinji Okazaki, who rises highest to glance the ball past Gianluigi Buffon. Great header.
69'Goal's Martin at Arena Pernambuco: And the crowd goes wild again after Okazaki's equalizer! The whole stadium chants "Japon, Japon", trying to push the Blue Samurai to a historic win
68'SubstitutionEmanuele Giaccherini Claudio Marchisio
67'More from Martin in Recife: Despite his team's fantastic comeback, Cesare Prandelli doesn't stop shouting from his bench, he wants his players to push forward as Japan has control of the ball at the moment. His opposite number, Zaccheroni, just watches with his arms crossed waiting for something to happen
66'Kagawa again aims to race through the midfield, but takes in one too any before he is dispossessed by Abate. Can't take them all on, my friend.
65'MAEDA!! Great dink of the ball by Kagawa into the box as Maeda races away from Barzagli. Can't keep the ball in play, but strikes nonetheless into the side netting, under pressure from Buffon
63'Kagawa combines with Endo on the edge of the area, as they continue to press, but the long ball towards Honda is too powerful, and bounces away for a goal-kick.
62'Chiellini with the header away, as Japan continue to camp out on the edge of the area. And each time, Italy divert the ball away. Balotelli loses possession up front, leaving Japan to embark on a triangle passing game between Uchida and two midfielders.
61'Superb piece of skill from Shinji Okazaki who skills his way past two defenders. Japan still with the momentum here but they're unable to do much with it.
60'Substitution: Italy - Christian Maggio off for Ignazio Abate.
60'Pirlo with the free-kick, and dangerously headed away by Konno there, as Japan awkwardly clear the ball away, but nevertheless, possession of the ball is claimed by Pirlo once again seconds later. Japan having rouble with possession.
59'SubstitutionChristian Maggio Ignazio Abate
59'Referee's not been very good tonight, I think we can all agree. First major international call up for Argentine Diego Abal, who is on the preliminary list for next year's World Cup.
58'And now it's Japan at the other end, completely end-to-end action this. Nagatomo with the delivery, and it's denied at the death by an alert Azzurri defence.
57'KAWASHIMA! Good save on the goal-line from the header. Corner drifts in dangerously, and headed straight into the midriff of the goalkeeper, who somehow stops on the line.
56'GIOVINCO!! Wow. What a strike, and only just wide, saved well by Kawashima. Great attempt from the little forward. Italy corner.
56'Okazaki comes in to offer a threat in the middle, but Italy are holding strong at the moment, as the delivery into the box is easily headed away. Italy much more confident, much more positive.
55'More from our man Martin in Recife: What a change of scenary we have witnessed in Recife! The fans have passed from disbelief to shock as Italy went from 0-2 to 3-2 in 15 minutes each side of half-time. There's an eery silence in the stands at the moment
54'Yellow card for Hasebe from the handball incident, and he'll miss the next game against Mexico. As it stands, Japan are going out, so it'll be a dead rubber anyway.
53'A rather controversial turn of events here, Italy started this second half seven minutes ago 2-1 down, and now lead 3-2. Japan have imploded, and it was such a poor decision to award a pen for Hasebe's handball, one would presume.
52'Penalty Goal Mario Balotelli
GOOOOOAL! ITALY 3-2 JAPAN!! Mario Balotelli tucks away the penalty, easily, turning past Kawashima, sending him the wrong way with a bit of a dummy there. Italy's comeback is complete.
52'Yellow Card Makoto Hasebe
51'WHAT A TURNAROUND!! Such an unlucky penalty to give away. Absolutely poor decision. Balotelli's shot blocked by Hasebe, but off his leg and then his hand. It's unbelievable that.
50'Own Goal Atsuto Uchida
GOOOOOOAL!! ITALY 2-2 JAPAN! Atsuto Uchida with the own goal there, but the real mistake was from Southampton's Maya Yoshida. Easily dispossessed by Giaccherini, who attempts to sidefoot towards Balotelli, but Uchida sees to it first, turning past Kawashima.
48'Poor free-kick from Pirlo there, headed away at the first attempt but Italy still have the ball here, through Giaccherini....
47'Can Italy hit back in this second half, after ending the first as the ominant side. They have a free-kick here, to be taken by Pirlo.
46'Underway in the second half here, Japan attacking from left to right.
HALF-TIME: Italy 1-2 Japan.
What an enthralling game, this. It's been all Japan, up until the final five minutes of the half. Kagawa has been excellent, as have Japan's offensive line in general. Should Buffon have seen red there? Or was it even a penalty? Or was the referee right? So many talking points. Get your messages in - via Twitter @mohammedali_93, or the chatbox on your right.
Half-time update from Martin: What a first half! The best we have seen so far in the tournament. The fans are ecsatic at the show put on by both teams in Recife
45' + 19'MAEDA!! Great dink of the ball by Kagawa into the box as Maeda races away from Barzagli. Can't keep the ball in play, but strikes nonetheless into the side netting, under pressure from Buffon.
45' + 1'GIACCHERINI!!! Almost 2-2 there. Oh, so close. Giaccherini picks up the loose ball, turns the defender inside out, bamboozling before he strikes the post. So frustrating.
45' + 1'PIRLO! Straight into the wall, and Ryoichi Maeda with a fine block at the second attempt. Not a great try that, goes without saying.
45'ONE minute of added time here at the end of the first half.
44'De Sciglio with a speculative pass into the box, Montolivo does well to steer the ball towards Maggio and keep possession, before Chiellini is pushed on the edge of the area by Honda. Free-kick Italy, and it's in a tasty position.
43'As it stands: Brazil through on six, Italy and Japan on three each, with Mexico eliminated. Almost coming up to half-time too.
42'Italy are back in this one, at the end of what has been an enthralling encounter so far in Recife. Japan ahead on possession, as Kagawa immediately searches for a third.
41'Assist Andrea Pirlo
41'Goal Daniele De Rossi
GOAAL! ITALY 1-2 JAPAN! Superb header from Daniele de Rossi. Brilliant goal. Powerful from the Roma man who heads directly into the goal past Kawashima. Game on!
39'PIRLO! Great free-kick, and only just above Kawashima's goal there. Superb strike, just days after his mercurial attempt against Mexico.
38'Buffon with another superb stop - twice - from Honda's free-kick. Italy just haven't clicked yet again. Will this mirror their 2009 Confederations Cup campaign, where they won their opening fixture, only to be humiliated by Egypt and go out?
37'Martin in Recife with another update: "Ole, ole" chant the people in Recife every time the Japanese complete a pass, and it's happening quite often!
36'Yellow Card Daniele De Rossi
36'YELLOW CARD: Daniele De Rossi - he will be suspended for the next match against Brazil.
35'Reaction from Martin at Arena Pernambuco: People at Recife couldn't be happier by the show put up by Japan so far, but the prevailing feeling is of disbelief. Nobody expected the Asian champs to put up such a dominant display against a world power such as Italy
34'Just unbelievable that, superb build-up from the Samurai Blue amid a fervent atmosphere in Recife. Kagawa with a composed finish on the half-volley to pierce Buffon's net.
33'Assist Yasuyuki Konno
33'Goal Shinji Kagawa
GOOALL!! ITALY 0-2 JAPAN! Wow, wow, wow. What a finish by Shinji Kagawa there. The Italians have really not got going in this encounter.
30'SubstitutionAlberto Aquilani Sebastian Giovinco
30'SUBSTITUTION: Italy - Alberto Aquilani off for Sebastien Giovinco - an early change from Prandelli.
29'Ooh, well. Almost a penalty there?! Yoshida tussles with Balotelli, who takes a tumble right inside the penalty box. Referee instead, awards a free-kick the other way.
27'Great build-up from Japan as Nagatomo races forward, but his shot is easily thwarted by the Azzurri captain. Endo with a foul on Giaccherini as the Azzurri have a free-kick.
25'Italy pressing after that setback, as Maggio races down the right wing with another speculative delivery, but this time, Uchida is the man with the header away.
23'Well, well, well. It initially did look like Buffon should've walked, but he seems to have 'accidentally' claimed the ball in the tackle as the ball bobbled up with the man going down. It's Japan who lead in Recife!
22'Martin del Palacio Langer: The crowd went ballistic as Honda converted the penalty for Japan to open the mark. Very controversial call by Argentinian referee Diego Abal however
21'Penalty Goal Keisuke Honda
GOAAAAAL! ITALY 0-1 JAPAN! Keisuke Honda tucks away the penalty with aplomb as Japan take the lead. Can't say it's not deserved, as Honda easily powers past Buffon. Group A is wide open.
20'Yellow Card Gianluigi Buffon
20'YELLOW CARD - Gianluigi Buffon! What is going on here?! Buffon looks to win the ball, but catches out the attacker. Harsh, but Referee Diego Abal looks to dish out the customary red card once he gives the penalty, but he awards a yellow. Controversy!
19'Free-kick awarded to Japan after a silly foul by Giaccherini. Lovely delivery from Maggio on the right, nonetheless.
17'Disappointing corner from Japan, with Pirlo clearing easily at the near post. Prandelli's not happy either on the touchline.
16'KAGAWA! Wow, what a shot, and that was very dodgy for Buffon to deal with. Strikes powerfully from distance, and it proves slightly awkward for the Juve goalkeeper, who needs to punch it away for a corner.
15'More from Martin in Recife: "The local crowd are clearly behind Japan, when the small Italian contingent try to shout "Italia, Italia" they are quickly booed and their chants replaced by a "Japon, Japon"
14'Balotelli picks up the ball about 30 yards out, and immediately strikes towards goal, unluckily for him, it clatters off Konno.
13'Japan have a player down at the moment, Keisuke Honda. The CSKA Moscow man did well to shake off a niggle to return against Brazil, and lasted more than 85 minutes.
11'Italy just haven't got going yet, with Japan continuously threatening Gianluigi Buffon and co. at the other end of the field. They're not giving up their tournament without a fight!
10'Great ball in by Balotelli, who powers past two markers with a fine threatening delivery into the box which requires some attention by Kawashima, who punches the ball away. Hasebe clears in the end.
8'ENDO! Comfortably wide of Buffon's right post. Played short from the corner, as Kagawa finds the midfielder in space, but he powers well wide of the goal.
7'And still Japan are ploughing forward in numbers, with 60% of possession. Japan might've had the extra day in preparation, but they already look a better side!
5'MAEDA! Header straight at Buffon there. But what a chance for Japan. Superb start from Japan, who could've so easily have taken the lead there. Delightful cross from Kagawa into the path of Maeda whose header is comfortable in the end for Buffon.
4'Well, it's a positive opening from Alberto Zaccheroni's men, who are camped out in front of Italy's penalty box. Kagawa on the edge, but he's unable to pick out a team-mate, as De Sciglio clears.
3'Forward by Endo after a fine run forward by Kagawa. Nagatomo supports on the left, but the Samurai Blue are pushed all the way back.
2'Good pressure from the Japanese early on, as they work hard to retrieve the ball in humid conditions.
1'UNDERWAY in Recife! Italy get us started, attacking from left to right. A win will seal a place in the semi-finals.
National anthems being played, with the Italians going ahead first. Tonight's referee is from Argentina, Diego Abal.
More from Martin, with a musical anecdote in Recife: AC/DC rocking the stadium tonight as the teams prepare to jump on the pitch, is it me or all over the world they have the same pre-anthem soundtrack?
TEAM NEWS: Two changes in the Italy line-up, with Christian Maggio and Alberto Aquilani coming in for Ignazio Abate and Claudio Marchisio. Ryoichi Maeda returns to start up front for Japan.
This is the two nations' first encounter since a friendly at Saitama in 2001 - a 1-1 draw with Gianluigi Buffon the only player in the two squads to feature in this tournament. They've met at the Olympic Games too, the Azzurri prevailing 8-0 on that occasion.
ITALY (4-3-2-1); Buffon, Maggio, Barzagli, Chiellini, De Sciglio, De Rossi, Pirlo, Montolivo, Aquilani, Giaccherini, Balotelli
JAPAN (4-2-3-1); Kawashima; Uchida, Yoshida, Konno, Nagatomo; Endo, Hasebe; Okazaki, Honda, Kagawa; Maeda
We've already had a result in Group A tonight, for those who didn't join me for LIVE! coverage of Brazil-Mexico earlier tonight - fear not, Neymar starred with a goal and an assist (and a sumptuous one at that) to down El Tri 2-0 in Fortaleza. Match report and player ratings up on the main site.
Goal's Martin del Palacio Langer is our man in Recife tonight, and he brings us this first update: The teams are already warming up on the pitch and the fans are starting to fill the stand. It's very hot and humid in Recife at the moment, something that will surely affect what we will see on the pitch
Japan meanwhile suffered a chastening opening day defeat to hosts Brazil, going down 3-0 in the capital, Brasilia. They can shake up the group with victory here tonight, if not, Brazil-Italy on Saturday will effectively be a play-off for top spot.
Right well, round two, match six in the Confederations Cup, and the Azzurri can book a place in the last four with victory over Japan, who will be eliminated, along with Mexico if Cesare Prandelli's men prevail.

This algorithm calculates height differences between elevation pairs within a user-defined search radius. Suggested values are between 50 and 500-1 000 m, depending on the desired output resolution and on the slope and roughness of the topographic surfaces. The user can choose to output results only within a predefined range of the elevation differences, e.g., all pairs with height differences between 0.5 m and 5 m. More details are in Alberti & Biscaro (2010).
Language: Fortran 90/95
Compiler: g95 - Windows
Version: 2008-08-12
Code: height_var.zip
Since data in GLA12 files are in big-endian notation (the Unix default), compile the program in Windows using the big-endian data option.
For example, with the free g95 compiler, the command line should include the "-fendian=BIG" option, e.g.:
prompt> g95 HeightVarGLA_v1.0.f95 -fendian=BIG -o heightvar.exe
Program input
The input for the elaborations consists of one or two binary files (with .dat extension) created by the ReadGLA12 program, storing data for a specific geographic domain acquired in a single time interval (when using one input file) or in two different time intervals (two input files).
Program output
Filtered-in pairs are written in an output text file that can be easily imported into GIS software. A metadata file stores information about the analysis session and analysed tracks (e.g., time, input files, used thresholds on distance and elevation differences, and summary results for each track).

If you chose British Telecom as your ISP I suspect there have been more than a few occasions where you've thought "Why?!" Fear not, the former monopolist is about to reward its long suffering customer base...
After its June preview, BT is finally launching full ADSL2+ services with speeds of up to 20Mbit for its 8Mbit customers. Uploads speeds will also more than double from 448Kbps to a potential 1MBit. The best bit? BT Retail is offering the faster speeds at no extra cost, with the cheapest broadband option just £7.78 a month for the first three months.
The faster speeds will initially be made available through 549 exchanges which serve 10m UK homes and businesses - roughly 40 per cent of the population. This will increase to 55 per cent by March 2010. In an effort to avoid the adverse publicity that has struck many 'up to' 20Mbit services BT will also off the 'BT Broadband Accelerator' (previously known as the BT i-plate and worth £15) for just the price of postage. It plugs into the master socket, cleans the line and ensures you get the maximum speeds possible for your home in respect to its distance from the exchange.
"The BT Broadband Accelerator can make a big difference to the speed of your broadband," said BT consumer division MD John Petter. "We think it is so important we've taken the decision to offer it to our customers for just the cost of the postage.Between that and us more than doubling headline speeds for millions of homes and businesses, most customers should start to see a rapid boost in the performance of their connection. We have a track record of not charging customers any more when we increase the speed and this time is no different. BT broadband customers won't have to pay any more to get higher speeds."
All seems fair enough to us. You see, you stuck it out with BT for a reason... (or so you can now tell yourselves!).

Understanding Flatten
Mathematica 5.0.1 on Windows 2000
In my study of Flatten, the Mathematica Book gives this example ...
You can use Flatten to "splice" sequences of elements into lists
or other expressions.
In[5]:= Flatten[ {a, f[b, c], f[a, b, d]}, 1, f ]
Out[5]= {a,b,c,a,b,d}
I modified In[5] as follows ...
In[1]:= Flatten[ { {a, f[b, c], f[a, b, d]}, {g, f[e, g]} }]
Out[1]= {a, f[b, c], f[a, b, d], g, f[e, g]}
I don't see why adding {g, f[e, g]} as a second list to the In[5] example
unflattens Flatten's answer. What am I misunderstanding?

Early osteogenic response of osteoprogenitor cells on modified titanium implant surfaces leads to improved osteogenesis
Chakravorty, Nishant, Prasadam, Indira, Ivanovski, Saso, & Xiao, Yin (2011) Early osteogenic response of osteoprogenitor cells on modified titanium implant surfaces leads to improved osteogenesis. In Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society 2011 Asia-Pacific Meeting, 3 - 5 August 2011, Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel, Singapore. (Unpublished)
This is the latest version of this eprint.
(PDF 97kB)
Accepted Version.
Background: Implant surface micro-roughness and hydrophilicity are known to improve the osteogenic differentiation potential of osteoprogenitor cells. This study was aimed to determine whether topographically and chemically modified titanium implant surfaces stimulate an initial osteogenic response in osteoprogenitor cells, which leads to their improved osteogenesis. ----- ----- Methods: Statistical analysis of microarray gene expression profiling data available from studies (at 72 hours) on sand-blasted, large grit acid etched (SLA) titanium surfaces was performed. Subsequently, human osteoprogenitor cells were cultured on SLActive (hydrophilic SLA), SLA and polished titanium surfaces for 24 hours, 3 days and 7 days. The expression of BMP2, BMP6, BMP2K, SP1, ACVR1, FZD6, WNT5A, PDLIM7, ITGB1, ITGA2, OCN, OPN, ALP and RUNX2 were studied using qPCR. ----- ----- Results: Several functional clusters related to osteogenesis were highlighted when genes showing statistically significant differences (from microarray data at 72 hours) in expression on SLA surface (compared with control surface) were analysed using DAVID (online tool). This indicates that differentiation begins very early in response to modified titanium surfaces. At 24 hours, ACVR1 (BMP pathway), FZD6 (Wnt pathway) and SP1 (TGF-β pathway) were significantly up-regulated in cultures on the SLActive surface compared to the other surfaces. WNT5A and ITGB1 also showed higher expression on the modified surfaces. Gene expression patterns on Day 3 and Day 7 did not reveal any significant differences.----- ----- Conclusion: These results suggest that the initial molecular response of osteoprogenitor cells to modified titanium surfaces may be responsible for an improved osteogenic response via the BMP and Wnt signalling pathways.

hello ladies. ive been wanting to get this sx way before i ever knew it exsisted..maybe even before it exsisted...lol. for so long i have felt like i was in the wrong body. i look in the mirror and see this body with no hips or ass and it feels like it is not me. my man thinks i look fine the way i am, but he doesnt understand what it feels like to not feel like u. i was thinking about it the other day and how to explain it to him and the best comparison i have is to the men and women who feel like the are the opposite sex. like a man feeling like he isnt a man...he feels like he really should be a woman. and to be honest, i didnt understand it myself until the idea came to me.
my man seems to go back and forth between seeming like he is embracing my sx and then wondering why im getting it. he is more of the decision maker in the relaionship and said it was ok if i got the sx and so i started to gain the weight needed to get the results that i want. and since i had a baby, i dont gain weight the same way i used to...its not cute. to me or to him=/. so im scared my man is going to change his mind and not want me to get the sx, bc b4 i started to gain the weight i was about 115-120lbs (i was scrawny) and im 5'2" and now i am about 130, maybe more. (its been a while since i weighed myself). and so i dont want to have to loose the weight ive gained bc it has been hard to gain it. im sick of eating...period. only when im ravenous is food at all enjoyable to me at this point (i never thought i would feel this way lol)
anyway...i have been going back and forth between jimerson and salama. i had a consultation already done by jimerson and feel like i didnt address all that i wanted to, so im hoping i can get some more questions answered. and i still need to schedule a consultation with salama. i have actually been more hesitant about salama bc for one he is booked up for a long time and i need this sx done before this year is up. and im scared to scedule an appiontment and not be able to switch it out for an earlier date. and second ive read some bad reviews on him. with jimerson i see good results just not a lot of them. im leaning more towards jimerson, but its still up in the air. money is not an issue when it comes to this sx for me, i just want to go with the best doc possible. one that will get the closest to the results i desire and that will treat me as they would like to be treated. so are there any ladies out there with some advice on which doc to go with? and if money was not an issue, what doc would u prefer to go with?
i plan to get my arms, bra area, upper back, lower back, flanks, and abdomen, lipoed. thats where i gain most of my weight now (i feel and look like a linebacker...lol. nothing i put on looks good...i just dont feel comfortable in my own skin). i want atleast 1000cc or more in each cheek and im going to get hips. i would like a very full, round, s curve (i think thats what its called) ass!
so, some concerns i have:
ive been looking at some b4 and after pix and one thing that i didnt like was in the b4 pix, it looked like some ladies have the indentation in the lower back and after the sx the indentation looks flat (i dont know...is it bc of the lipo?) and i see some sort of white pads under the garment. im assuming to help with swelling. Any ladies who know what im taking about? i dont want a flat lower back. i dont have much of an indentation...but i do have one and i would like to keep it.
another concern of mine is that i have always been athletic and my ass feels like it has a good amount of muscle and im not sure if the my skin is elastic enough to get the fullness i desire. is there some way to tell? does anyone know about this and have had the same concern? did u get the volume u wanted? i also have light back dimples. i would like to enhance those if not keep them.
now, i know that getting massaged is extremely important for this sx. how long after i get the sx do i need to be massaged? and how many times a day is ok? is there anyway i can overdo the massaging? or the more the better? i want to make sure i am nice and soft. i know the damage of scar tissue and what it can do=/ i see some ladies ordered more massages for right after sx, some continued them once home, and i read about using rolling pins so u can do it urself.
ive always wanted a really small waist. does anyone know of a good garment to go with? does anyone know how to know which one i may need for sx? ive also heard of ladies using some kind of corset...i guess its called a waist cincher?
bbl is not the only surgery i plan on getting. after i had my baby via csection, i breast fed and i am more than definitely getting a tt and maybe a breast lift. i have ugly stretch marks on my tummy and my tits arent as perky anymore. I know some would say that i am vain or just plain crazy, but i just want to enjoy life. i am young and i want to just throw on a some clothes, be able to wear whatever the hell i want, and not be concerned about sucking in or trying to find the most flattering look. i want to live without being so focused on hiding.
i am so thankful to have found this site and be able to share my journey with u ladies and read ur journys as well.

- Item Category: Metals

- Sold Date: Nov 14, 2007
- Channel: Auction House
This tea set has unique lions head feet on all pieces and the lids are lions feet holding a ball. The design on the side is some sort of grapevine. I am not sure if t is suppose to be a lid for the creamer but I did not get it when I got the tea set. Some pieces are cleaner than others and the lid to sugar I tried to clean. On the bottom of the pieces it say TAUNTON SILVER PLATE CO - TRIPLE PLATE - 115 1/2. I know it is old - but I am not sure exactly - did a little research but was overwhelmed.


text: While I don't particularly like this gun and would not buy one, some of you guys are over the top. I have owned many derringers over the years in every caliber from .22, .32 mag, 38/357 up to and including a couple of 45 colt/410's from Bond. I never carried one for self defense because I always had better choices. Like a couple of guys have already said, I would rather carry my LCP with 7 rounds of 380 than any 2 shot pistol. That all being said, I have to wonder if any of you have ever shot a derringer in anything larger than a .22. I have shot lots of full on 357's and factory 45 colts through derringers. The 357 was the worst of them but still manageable. The 45 colts at around 800-1000 feet per second were downright enjoyable. I can't think of any 45 ACP load, other than possibly Cor-bond, that would bother me to shoot it in a gun of this size. I am 5' 6'' tall and weigh 170 pounds so I am not exactly what you would call big.

Liberty and Equality
by Tibor R. Machan
Publisher: Hoover Institution Press 2002
Number of pages: 132
This book takes an unflinching look at the difficult, often emotional issues that arise when egalitarianism collies with individual liberties, ultimately showing why the kind of egalitarianism preached by socialists and other sentimentalists is not an option in a free society.

Library Faculty Meeting
September 16, 2003
407 Levis
3:00 – 4:42 pm
Paula Kaufman, presiding, called the meeting to order at 3:00 pm after it was determined that a quorum was present.
1. Approval of faculty meeting minutes of August 19, 2003
Minutes were approved by a motion from K. Clark and were seconded.
2. University Librarian's report - Kaufman
Paula Kaufman reported that a portion of the ceiling fell on the 4 th Floor of the Main Library. Due to this, one set of women's and men's restrooms have been closed on the 4 th Floor and staff will need to use another set of restrooms on that floor. There is also considerable damage to the ceiling in Classics, and some damage in Map & Geography. The chiller on the roof is set to be replaced this fall, but roof repairs will also need to be done. Jack Dempsey of Facilities and Services (formerly O&M) has seen the damage and is working on getting it repaired. The Provost has promised there will be money available to make the necessary repairs.
There has been a proposal by the College of Engineering to raise tuition stipends charged against grants, which may reduce the number of graduate assistants employed through grants. Paula sits on a committee charged to advise the Vice-Chancellor for Research about different topics. The committee has advised the Vice-Chancellor against making this change. The discussion is not closed and she continues to keep a watch on its developments. She added that some of the money that comes into the university through these tuition stipends is treated like ICR money.
Paula has been questioned about attendance being taken at the Faculty meetings. She wants to reassure everyone that attendance is not taken. Heads are counted at meetings to make sure there is a quorum, but names are not taken down.
The Public Goods Committee – which has been changed to the Cultural Engagement Council- has been meeting and planning several events. The council consists of members from the Library, Spurlock Museum, Japan House, Krannert Art Museum, Krannert Center for Performing Arts, WILL, and Allerton Park. The council will host the Imaging America conference being held on campus November 8-10, 2003. The topic will be how public universities engage with their communities. Another on-campus event for faculty will take place in the month of January. We will be showcasing ways faculty make innovative uses of our cultural resources for teaching. We will have an opportunity to showcase a few examples of such in the Library. If you know faculty who are making innovative uses of the Library, let Paula or Bob Burger know, so they can get these on the schedule.
In Alumni News this month there are two articles about the Browsing Room closing. Faculty may be hearing about this topic from alumni.
On September 17, Lyn Jones and Paula will have a forum about the Campaign in 291 UGL at 2:00. They will be discussing Campaign planning and events at the Foundation weekend which is October 10, 11, and 12.
3. Committee reports
Executive Committee – Woodard
Since the last faculty meeting on Tuesday, August 19, the Executive Committee has met twice, once on Monday, August 25 and again on Thursday, September 11.
Election of Vice Chair and Secretary
Beth Woodard was elected Vice Chair and Lisa German was elected Secretary.
Question Time
Could the members use a shared drive file for attachments instead of e-mailing attachments? Janis is not currently able to access the shared drive, but Systems will be contacted to give her access.
CITES charges the individual or University Account to have files recovered. EC approved a policy for the Library to reimburse faculty if they need CITES to restore their files.
EC affirmed the right for all library faculty to be on the Senate Committee on the Library or on any faculty committee.
Planning for the coming year
5th year evaluation for the University Librarian
Cross-campus initiatives
Develop a process for filling/creating faculty positions
Re-examine committee structure
Question regarding whether library meetings are open to observers
EC drafted a policy regarding observers at meetings, which was posted to LibNew-L on Friday, September 12, 2003.
Appointment of Parliamentarian and members to Colloquium Committee and RPC
Nominations were made and Paula contacted the individuals concerned.
Goal Setting: Role of Division Coordinators & Unit Heads
EC feels this should be discussed at the next Faculty meeting.
Diversity Committee discussion
EC will ask Dana Wright, Mary Mallory and Lisa Romero to a future meeting to discuss the relationship of EEO, Affirmative Action and a possible new committee on diversity.
Confirmation of a Reassignment within a Unit
A request was made to confirm an individual who had served in a temporary capacity within a unit with that official title. EC discussed it and will draft a policy that indicates that this kind of change wouldn't need to be confirmed by EC as long as the title is commonly used.
Process for Filling Faculty Positions
A process was discussed for determining which of the many vacant faculty positions will be filled with the very limited pool of monies available. An October 15 deadline was established for priorities from divisions. Some of the criteria listed in the brainstorming session included: division priorities, accreditation requirements, previous commitments, heads of units, impact on those served and uniqueness of expertise.
New Global Resources Center
The 1/2 time faculty position for the Global Resources Center was discussed. Questions were raised about how this position related to the existing structure of the library. Karen Schmidt will be asked to come to EC to discuss.
4. Other reports
Goal Setting Discussion – Kaufman
EC revisited the goal setting process and the intent of the goal setting process. The purpose of unit goals being looked over by Division Coordinators is to give divisions the chance to look for opportunities to bring together some unit activities.
Tim Cole asked why the Division Coordinators, rather than the Division Advisory Committees, are looking over the goals. Paula answered that there is no reason why the advisory committee cannot do this. Each division should determine how they want to handle this.
Kathleen Kluegel then asked to have the output mechanism defined. Paula answered that the Budget Group is preparing a calendar and discussing when and what they will ask the divisions to provide. Kathleen Kluegel then asked for clarification: in October at the division meeting faculty bring in their annual reports and then the division sends them to the Budget Group? Paula clarified that each division should choose how to set their goals and should tie these in with their budget requests later in the year.
Aaron Trehub asked if new evaluative functions are being delegated to the Division Coorinators? Paula answered that they are not.
Barb Henigman asked how this goal setting ties into Communication 21, and Paula answered that the functions we are talking about are completely different, involving personal goals. Discussion about Communication 21 is on EC's longer-term agenda this year.
Tim Cole stated that one reason for the confusion is that at the November 19, 2001 meeting the AC action list in the minutes referred to Communication 21. Paula further clarified that Communication 21 deals with faculty and is an EC matter, not an AC matter.
Katie Clark asked if the Division Coordinator should be involved in reviewing faculty goals. Paula replied that we haven't dealt with Communication 21 yet and that is an issue for EC to deal with when we do.
Teaching Alliance Update – Hinchliffe
This is the third year of the collaborative Teaching Alliance program with GSLIS which is funded in part by the Provost's Initiative on Teaching Advancement (PITA). In the first year, the general topic of study was "teaching" and in the second year the focus was on " undergraduate students as learners." For the coming year, the theme will be the "scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL)."
SoTL is operationally defined as "systematic reflection on teaching and learning made public" (http://www.cat.ilstu.edu/sotl/index.shtml). For faculty who primarily teach credit-courses, SoTL tends to focus around classroom-based teaching and learning. For practicing librarians, the focus is less tied to particular methods of educational delivery and more to how library users learn and develop competence in library and research skills. The particular focus for the Teaching Alliance will be to take lessons from the action research tradition and to apply those methods in the library and information science discipline and profession. The program is likely to be an especially good opportunity for pre-tenure librarians to join a supportive research initiative and – if interest warrants – pursue collaborative as well as individual research projects.
The upcoming events are:
· September 26, 10-12 is the Kickoff Event with guest speaker Kathleen McKinney, who holds the Cross Chair in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning and is a professor of sociology at Illinois State University.
· Follow up event will be a discussion with Ann Bishop of GSLIS about action research and its application in library and information science.

CLIR post doc fellowship for post-doc grads – Kaufman
We have funding from the provost for two fellowships/year for each of two years. Fellowships can be for one or two years. The purpose of the fellowship program is to educate new scholars in the humanities regarding the challenges and opportunities in academic research libraries. Each fellowship will include an experience-based internship in an academic research library; a set of common experiences, developed and operated by CLIR, each of 1-2 weeks duration; a project developed by the Fellow and the internship institution, which will require that the Fellow carry out some work consistent with the purpose of the fellowship; and a closed listserv (possibly using LEEP technology) for on-going communication among fellows during their fellowship and for a period of at least 5 years.
At this time, the program is limited to scholars in the humanities as defined by NEH. A PhD in a humanities discipline must have been received within the prior three years. If a PhD has not yet been received, all work toward the degree (including dissertation defense and final dissertation editing) must be complete before beginning the internship.
The application and selection process will be run by CLIR. Each institution (there may be up to 15) will post its opportunities (up to 2 each). Applicants will indicate their first 3 choices, in priority order. Institutions will then review all applicants and indicate their top three choices (those of us with more than 1 offering will have a slightly different procedure) and CLIR will make the matches based on that input. The fellowship will begin July 2004. Common curriculum and evaluation mechanisms are now being designed.
Our involvement with the program at this early stage gives us an opportunity to help shape it and help make it a successful piece of what will have to be a set of complex strategies to ensure that we have sufficient well-trained and highly capable people entering academic librarianship over the next decade. Our participation in this program is a decision for the faculty to make.
Nancy O'Brien asked if the Division Coordinators need to treat these fellowships like other positions by writing a job description to be submitted to EC. Paula answered that that they will not, since there is separate money for these fellowships. There will be a committee formed to decide on the two fellowship proposals with which the Library will go forward.
Tom Weissinger asked if this will undermine the role of a library degree, since a person can get a library degree in the same amount of time. Couldn't we just give these people tuition remission and admit them to library school? Paula answered that this program is designed to attract people who haven't thought about going to library school, and show them what an exciting and challenging career one can have working in an academic research library and its universities. Over the next decade we are going to be faced with a shortage of librarians to work in academia. Some previous programs have worked well in some places and failed in others.
Aaron Trehub added that the best way to scare people off of a career in academic librarianship is to force them to go through a program. There's nothing like direct engagement with the profession to instill interest. Anything that strengthens ties between academic librarianship and specialists in the field is a good thing.
Sue Searing affirmed that she believes this is worth experimenting with. If the Provost is going to give us the money, why not do it? If it doesn't work we don't have to keep doing it. She then asked if we need to think about how we want to define these positions before we actually get the people, or if we defined the positions only after the positions are filled? Paula responded that the way in which the program is being developed right now is there will be an opportunity for libraries to post their opportunities by mid-November. Applicants will be given a month or so to apply and indicate their top three choices. Then we will have an opportunity to look at all the applications and determine our top three and see where the matches are. CLIR is the home for this and their experience with the Mellon fellowships is that for ten openings they had over 300 applicants. So they have advised us to be as specific as possible about the project.
Lisa Hinchliffe also affirmed her support of the program. She also asked if there some sort of formal role for the library person who is supervising the fellowship person? Paula answered that we can talk about bringing the project director and the fellowship recipient together to talk about the experience.
Sharon asked if the program is specifically confined to Humanities or may also include Social Sciences. Paula answered that, per the NEH definition, the fellowships must be limited to the humanities.
Maria Porta requested an example of how this would work. Paula presented the scenario that the Library would determine what our proposals were, they would be posted, people would apply, and we'd decide who the people were. There needs to be a concrete outcome or a project of some sort. We would have to determine what that outcome or project would be. Then we would need to determine how well it works. The fellows would come together at the beginning of their fellowship to talk about common experiences and about the basics of the program. Then they would come together at least one more time, towards the end. Their home would be in only one of a few divisions and those people would help the fellow understand what it means to be a Humanitarian librarian.
Chris Prom was also in support of this, and asked if we would be soliciting applicants from on-campus only. Paula responded that the search would be nation-wide, and added that UIUC would be attractive to prospective applicants because of our emphasis on research.
Tim Cole added that it is also important that we build in an education component, and emphasize research and communication with the field.
Jane Block stated that she was also in support of the fellowships, but is concerned that the program bucks an in-built bias that exists in any subject base department because the goal of those are for their people to become professors in their area. Opting for a career that doesn't fit the paradigm may be frowned upon by advisors. Paula added that we should talk among the divisions most likely to make proposals about how we will work with the campus departments to help them understand that this is an opportunity for some of their graduates.
Upon hearing consent, Paula proposed that the Library move forward with the fellowships and asked that proposals be submitted no later than Nov. 1. In the near future, a time will be scheduled for anyone interested in preparing a proposal to get together to share ideas and common interests. Kim Reynolds will advise when that will be within the next few days. Paula will pull together a representative selection committee and they'll make the final choices. She also stated that information about this will go out in the form of an article in the Chronicle, on a web-site, in discipline newsletters, a letter to sponsoring institutions, and by word of mouth.
6. New Business
Lisa German, Karen Schmidt
Lisa and Karen named the fund manager of the year and gave out awards. The award for the fund manager that manages less than $100,000 went to Lynn Wiley and the award for the fund manager that manages more than $100,000 went to JoAnn Jacoby.
Paula Watson
Beth Sandore and she will be working together this semester to explore creation of a digital repository of information produced on the UIUC campus. Such a repository would ultimately contain not only research materials, but also sources related to the mission, administration, and instructional function of the university. For general information on the concept of institutional repositories see http://www.arl.org/sparc/IR/ir.html. For a look at an existing project, see the MIT's D-Space web site: https://hpds1.mit.edu/index.jsp.
The focus at this point will be on the research and scholarly output of the faculty. Paula W. will be doing a needs assessment to determine the kinds of information faculty would particularly like to see preserved in a centrally maintained repository. This might include material that is currently on departmental or individual web sites as well as sources not yet available via the web. Examples include: preprints, published articles, data sets, audio, video, images of various kinds (biomedical, drawings, artifacts) etc. All disciplines are likely to have sources of various types they want to make more available to colleagues both here and elsewhere. Paula W. is happy to meet with any division or individual to discuss further.
Tim Cole pointed out that one area some institutions are not very well prepared in is intellectual property. Some publishers are refusing to look at publications that are put in an intellectual repository. The Romeo project just finished. Paula W. answered that there are also people who are not used to a pre-print culture, who are concerned about giving their ideas away or about the publishability of research once it has appeared on-line.
Lisa Hinchliffe asked for clarification on the initial focus of the project - will it be on scholarly activity, as opposed to instruction. Paula answered in the affirmative.
Sue Searing asked if we as a faculty are going to be actively encouraged to do this with our output? Paula W. answered "certainly". We're talking about the intellectual capital of the entire university. Everywhere she looks she sees obvious candidates for this staggering concept.
Gail Hueting –asked how this relates to the Archives function of the University? Paula answered that it related very closely.
Muhammad al-Faruque asked if the project will concentrate on just the UI system, or if it will cooperate with other universities. Paula W. answered that they will be focusing on the intellectual output of this university. Muhammad then asked how we will insure that pre-prints are copyright protected. Paula W. replied that there are intellectual property rights issues that still need to be explored before this can take place.
Bill Mischo added that there are six universities testing this sort of proposal now (D-Space and E-Prints). One of the things we want to look at is how we can integrate with some of the programs already going on on campus, such as the College of Engineering. Another thing as far as property rights, we can have links to publishers instead of having full text.
Michael Norman
Michael announced that it's time to do a yearly update from Serials. He asked if the faculty would prefer a separate meeting, a lengthy email, or a meeting for staff separate from faculty?
Janice Pilch requested a separate forum.
Barb Henigman added that more than one forum would be useful.
Nuala Koetter suggested that Michael could publish a web page as opposed to, or in addition to, e-mail.
Kathleen Kluegel added that there are many needsa that may not all be addressed in one format. Michael agreed that he may need to hold more than one forum.

Hell no us bmxers need a place to ride other than the schools because we just get kicked out there
#11 Jun 28, 2010
ALLOW BMX IN THE SKATEPARK!!!!!!!!!! Greenlawn is good for bikes but the thing is skaters can still ride and cut us off and greenlawn is too small for a bunch of bmxers they said there would be a dirt bmx park close to the new skatepark but then i heard it got denied so watch out skaters because BMX PROTEST!!!! ALLOW BIKES IN THE PARK!!!!!!!!
#13 Jul 2, 2010
Went there on July 2,2010.
So far it looks great! All concrete construction,2 pools,2 pyramids typical ledges rails etc.
I talked with one of the construction guys he thinks it may be ready to skate soon. He said they were moving along with the work at a fast pace and hopes to keep it up. If the progress stays at this pace he believes it to be complete by mid August.
#14 Jul 17, 2010
Use Greenlawn!!! Stop your whining and work to get your own park.
BMXers were nowhere when this park was being planned for the last 5 years and when you see the finiched product then you bitch. Stop riding on the work that the skaters did to get this park built and get your own built.
#15 Jul 25, 2010
I stopped by the construction site last week and the park looks great.No lights though. Check out pics taken early this month. http://kuatolives2084.blogspot.com/2010/07/no...
#16 Jul 27, 2010
with bmx and no security
#17 Jul 27, 2010
O don't worry I will bitch because i saw it and it is perfectly suitible for bikes its alot closer to my house then greenlawn and its in the middle of the bmx capital of town of huntington all of us bikers are gonna gather and protest the oppression and skaters and bmxers can get along i have alot of skater friends who think its unfair that i don't get to ride the park with them because i ride bmx bikes i will have a protest because there are more bikers than skaters in the town of huntington and eastnorthport is the bmx capital of T.O.H. i bet since ur a skater youve heard of Arizona's Reed skatepark in Mesa and that bmx protest that happened in 2002 really inspired me to fight for my rights us bmxers all ways get screwed over one way or another by the town SKATE ONLY SKATEPARKS and security etc. we are gonna do something about it now don't panic if my petition for a new bmx park gets approved everything will be cool but if it gets denied us bmxers will show up surrounding the enpt skatepark and protest against the discrimination that cities levy against kids who ride bikes I asked the security about the "dirt jump park" they said it wasen't gonna happen and also i asked because i heard about the "phase 2 bmx park" they said that wasen't gonna happen those ramps are better than greenlawns i gotta say and btw everyone thinks putting a tree in the pyramid is the stupidest idea ever and skaters rub in in us bmxers faces about they get a new park and they have an awsome bowl which really makes us pissed
#18 Jul 27, 2010
Ik i wish i could ride it but ill get the cops called on me if i do
#19 Jul 27, 2010
Saint James, NY
#20 Jul 28, 2010
You still do not answer my response about not doing anything about getting your own facility. The Greenlawn park was built through the efforts of skaters and you get to use that facility. This park was built through the efforts of a few advocates and took many years to get done. Now you want to say you are entitled to use it. Go ride on a golf course and see how fast you get kicked off. Bmx riders and skaters take different lines and cover ground at different rates making collisions inevitable. Reed Park in Arizona is now a mainly BMX park due to this fact. Again this is a skatepark not a BMX park
#21 Jul 28, 2010
Well it should be a BMX park and why would i ride a golf course they suck there is nothing there every bmxer is sending stuff to the town but they are not doing anything alot of skaters think its still unfair to keep bmx out
#22 Jul 28, 2010
plus skateparks are bmx parks

holley flooding
We have a 600 holley on a 312 and just can't get it to stop flooding out.We can get it running but have to hold it half throttle to keep it running.We have set the float levels,gas is below the sight plugs in both ends.New power valve and new acc.pump.Floats are not ruptured.New needle and seat(tried several)Fuel pump is stock manual with 4-6 lbs.Tried electric with anywheres from 3 to 10 lbs,no difference.Put on the other holley we had and ran fine.What are we missing?
Sounds like somewhere in the accelerator pump. The spring may be shot or the diaphram in the pump may be shot as well. Also, check the accelerator pump adjustment, it should be between .015-.020.
Sometime bad base plate gasket will cause flooding. Did you use any telfon tape on fittings?
New pump spring and dia.Tried 2 of them to make sure.Adjustment is spot on.No leak in the bottom and no teflon tape.Float levels are fine,even a lttle low.Really got me stumped especially with the other one working fine.There was a little water in it when we took it apart,maybe split and froze something?
Make sure the check valve is in place under the accelerator pump squirter. If it's not there, fuel can siphon over into the primary side when the engine is running and flood it.
It is # 74 or 75 or 76 in the view HERE.
Also be sure washer #73 is there, its a rubber-coated thin aluminum piece. Only one, sometimes they will stick to the body and two will accidentally be installed.
Holley issues
Oh come now fellas! Don't over think things! I have a Holly 600 Vac Secondary on a 307 Chevy in a 1968 Camaro, and it has done the very same thing. Is this carb a double pumper or a Vac secondary? Either way, I've had the same problem on both. Fuel flooding over the throttle plates from the idle-air bleeds, then kicking the idle up to 2500 or holding the pedal down just to keep it running? Don't over think things guys! The floats are stuck! A light or medium rap of a hammer (or rock, and trust me, I've done this.) on the top of the float adjuster should do the trick, if you are stuck far from home. Once you get home, check the float level. If it's too high, drop it down with your handy-dandy screwdriver. If it still hangs up, crack the float bowls off and clean the needle, seat, float pivot, and so on. Violla! A hitch-free Holly 600. Sorry if I sound so abrupt, but guys, this is a Holly, a pain in the *** to tune sometimes, but the most adjustable carb on the market! Think simple first, the smallest and most insignificant of things can throw the whole smash off kilter.
If they were stuck shut, there would be no fuel.
If you have phenolic floats they absorb fuel, toss em for the older style brass or the new hollow white plastic ones.
Been down that road before with the phenolic floats, they seem fine and when you check the fuel level it seems to be OK but the floats are heavy with fuel and they won't push hard enough against the seat to shut the fuel off once the rpm comes up.
If thats not it, I would check the accelerator pump check valve or rubber umbrella to make sure it is working and functional.
The float issue
I'd hate to sound as if I am contradicting any of you, however I have had the very same things happen on the '68 camaro carb, an older style brass float, center hung carb. Don't ask me why, but they do hang up once and a while, especially on unleaded fuel. I had to bang on the float bowls for a few minutes with a ball-peen hammer to even make it back up the south St. Vrain Canyon to our shop to even begin to diagnose the problem. (Which was exactly that, the floats had stuck.) Start with the floats, eliminate the simple first before diving into the inner workings of the dumb thing.
If anyone has issues with this, feel free to PM me you guys, I've spend the better half of my life tuning carbs and building engines for street and endurance racing. Feel free to rake me over the coals.
ok ive been trouble shooting the same type problem a on a dual quad (holley) on a blower motor,,after almost hydraulicing the motor,,i went thru the carbs every thing inside was fine but replaced every thing any way due to it had been 3 years since and with todays gas they recomend doing it every year,,no need for that in my eyes unless you have hardening of the rubber parts,which i did not,,,which the carb refresh didnt not help at all,,still flooding the motor
i finally drained the fuel cell, flushed the system, added new gas,,i made a funnel with cheese cloth as a filtering device and it runs great now,, i did try to filter the old gas several times but it kept turning the cheese cloth black.. so it appears that i had a bad batch of gas lots of junk in the fuel cell and some thing black in the gas,,,now where to dump about 7 gallons of dirty gas,,
i do think i remember the last gas station i used just before the trouble,,on my way back from wheels of time event at macungie PA i filled up at turkey hill,i have filled up there every year going to this event,,on the way home the car started running like crap,,,,it may have been the bottom of there tanks i dont know for sure
the main thing is i caught the problem trying to start the car one day, i could hear the motor turning over gettign slower and starting to hydrulic,,,wheew,, seems to be fine now,,,
holly 650 flooding on a 289
hi guys...been reading about the flooding business...after much thought...whats your input on the throttle rod( yknow the rod that operates the butterflies)...how much play will it tolerate before flooding the engine???....another thing is...If the base plate is allowing air leakage...what can I do to seal it up???...hope someone knows cuz I rebuilt the carb and the car has sat without running at all for three years( no fuel in it at all)....also...is it possible to have installed the wrong kit????..ok ok...too many questions, but thanks if you have some suggestions...ole Rich
If you want to make a vehical with a holley run better, get better milage,be more dependable and easyer to drive replace it with any thing you can get bolted in its place.
Real useful post.
Why does everyone hate Holleys?
Boy, sometimes help isn't very helpful. Let's see if the Holley Gods can help you.
If your leaking air at the throttle shaft, your seals are shot and causing a lean condition, not flooding. If air is leaking at the baseplate, more than likely it is a failed or improper base gasket. (I also suggest checking for open vacuum nipples, or leaking nipple caps.) And yes, it is very possible to put the parts for one holley into a different one. Some parts do interchange, while others are very specific. You can nearly overhaul a vacuum secondary holley with a rebuild kit for a double-pumper, but that leaves you high and dry for the diaphragm and spring, which most often fail.
Holleys are finicky, there is no denying that. Edelbrocks work just fine out of the box, no denying that either. But therin lies the problem. Holleys are, for lack of a better term, street-fitted racing carburetors, and they act like it. All it takes is a little patience and logic, and you'll have something that you'll never have to fiddle with again. Edelbrocks take a heck of a lot of fiddling if you want to make them do something better or more specific. So, what's the beef? It took us a full season of swapping jets, power valves, squirters, pump cams, and even metering blocks before we had it just right. It has been ten seasons since then, and our roadrace '67 camaro has had nery a hiccup with a Holley. It's blown up a few times, but never at the fault of the carb. (Usually the driver's leadfoot and over-revving on the downshift.) As for the mileage question, If Holley's are so terrible, why is it I'm getting 17mpg out of one on my hot 327 in a '68 Camaro? Or how about the 21mpg we get out of a Holley equipped 350 in a '74 'Vette? The point is, if you have a little patience, and a want to make it right and not settle for the easy fix, then fiddle with your Holley. Get it right and it will be right, no worries. I hope I have been of some help, and if anyone got their feathers ruffled, well, I guess I'm too dogged and determined to settle for something out-of-the-box.
All hail the Godess of Carburetion.

Speedshift Sam i agree with every thing you said. Holleys are great if you have the time and skill.

2012-2013 News
School Safety & Security
After the school tragedy in Newtown, Conn., the natural reaction for most parents is, what are my children's schools doing to keep them safe. With our normal security plans in place, Livingston Public Schools are, and remain, a safe place for learning.
Livingston Public Schools is committed to providing a safe environment. We take our drills very seriously and, unfortunately, events like this remind us why we go to such lengths.
We have developed a comprehensive plan that covers a wide variety of emergencies that serves as a guide to help staff and our public safety partners respond swiftly should a crisis occur in our schools. Town and state officials evaluate our drills. All exterior doors are locked. Our schools are equipped with security cameras and buzz-in systems.
Police officers are in our buildings for daily walk-throughs for general safety checks, and are present during the monthly drills. We will continue to work with the Livingston Police and Fire Departments to make sure that our plans are as seamless and thorough as possible.
We encourage parents to update all their contact information. Should a school emergency occur, our Alert System would provide the most reliable information on any out-of-the ordinary school event.
All our schools have numerous safety measures in place to provide a safe learning environment for our students. These safety measures include:
As a parent, you should feel confident to know that we provide crisis management training to school administrators. Each school has key staff members with assigned roles and responsibilities to perform during an emergency. The school system's emergency response plan is modeled on the National Incident Management System as required by the State of New Jersey. Every school conducts monthly emergency drills throughout the school year so that students and staff are aware of the most effective and safe emergency responses.
School staff works closely with the appropriate local public safety agencies, such as police, fire, emergency medical services, and public health to effectively deal with a wide range of crises.Specifically, we have partnered with the Livingston Police Department in planning and training activities to promote emergency preparedness throughout the schools and the community. When our schools practice emergency drills we cover a wide range of circumstances, bomb threats, active shooters, lock downs,shelter in place and many more.
Parents and guardians are strongly encouraged to provide accurate emergency contact information to your child's school and notify the school if it changes.
Livingston Public Schools utilizes the STARS Portal. This is an electronic notification service that sends e-mail messages to your home/work computer to provide subscribers with up-to-date information about school closings and cancellations, early dismissals, and other unforeseen emergencies.
The Alert Now system is used most often for weather-related messages, however, when deemed necessary by the Superintendent of Schools, you will receive either a phone call, an email or both, with important information.
It is vital that you log into your STARS account @ https://stars.livingston.org and be sure that you have checked off the box for "Emergency Broadcast" for any phone numbers and email addresses at which you wish to be notified in these instances. Please be sure to verify this important information for each child attending the Livingston Public Schools.
During an emergency, it is critical that parents receive important information from school officials before going to the school or scene of an emergency. You can be confident that accurate and timely information will be released to parents, the public, and the media during any significant emergencies.
Should a significant school emergency occur, a parent can get important information and directions by doing one or all of the following:
Livingston Public Schools also sends out information over the social media sites Facebook@ Livingston Public Schools and Twitter @ LivSchools.
If the school building is evacuated or is locked down, how will I be able to locate my child?
Each school has a procedure for helping parents locate their child(ren). Parents will be directed to a specific location where they will be required to show proper identification. Remember, a student can only be released to an adult that is documented as an emergency contact. If you are a non-custodial parent, you must be listed with your child's emergency contact information as a guardian and show proper identification.
Communicate with your child at their age level about being prepared for emergencies. This includes taking drills, such as fire drills, seriously. It also includes reporting when unidentified visitors are on school property or reporting anything that is out of the ordinary or unusual in the school day to an adult at school.
Over the weekend, Livingston administrators worked to make the return to school for our students will be as calming and reassuring a time as it can be under the circumstances. Principals will review their safety protocols and counseling plans with staffs.
On Monday, Livingston High School and the middle schools will begin the day with a moment of silence, followed by normal instruction. Teachers do not plan to have any formal lessons about this event, but will respond to questions if the children raise them. The focus will be on reassuring the children that they are safe and allaying their fears.
The partnership between home and school is more important than ever at this time.We recognize that our students may experience a range of emotions or uncertainty because of this tragedy and will turn to the adults in their life for information, support and a sense of security.
To assist them, the school counselors in each of our schools will reassure all students that the adults in their lives are doing everything they can to make their school environment, home, and neighborhood safe for them. Our teachers and school counselors will monitor student's emotions and be available for any child who may have special needs throughout the week.
Livingston Public Schools will continue to enforce security measures, monitor and evaluate our plans.

"It was ultimately the best fit for me," said the 6-foot-5, 298-pound Williams. "Education-wise, they have a really good business school and that's my major."
Other factors also went into his decision.
"It's also in the South and it's close to home," said Williams, who also has a lot of family in Georgia. "I have a great opportunity to have a chance to play early, too.
"And when I camped down there over the summer that also helped me with my decision. I got to see how the coaches coach and train guys. I also got to take a tour of the campus and was able to get a feel for it. The atmosphere really stuck out to me."
The E.E. Smith standout has a good relationship with Florida State running back coach Jay Graham, who is his recruiting coach.
"He keeps it real with me," Williams said. "He doesn't make everything about business and football. It's more of a family relationship."
Williams watched Florida State's big win over Clemson last weekend and has been impressed with the job head coach Jimbo Fisher has done.
"It was a big win," he said. "I knew they were going to get the win. Coach Fisher has done a great job with the program. He's also done great job of working with Jameis (Winston) and helping him become an elite quarterback."
Williams has talked with the Seminoles' coaching staff about the role they want him to play.
"They are recruiting me to play defense," Williams said. "They want me to play the 3-technique and the 5-technique."
Williams is relieved to have the recruiting process behind him.
"I feel like a tremendous amount of weight has been lifted off my shoulders," he said. "When you start off with the recruiting process, everybody tells you how fun it's going to be. But it can bring pressure and be exhausting. In the end, it's worth it – to live out your dream."
E.E. Smith is 4-4 and host Fayetteville (N.C.) Cape Fear Friday at 7:30.
Williams is a three-star prospect and the 50th-ranked offensive tackle in the country. He chose Florida State over offers from Miami and East Carolina, as well as interest from Auburn.

Barack Obama's explanation for doing well in the second of three debates with Mitt Romney before last year's presidential election was frank. ''I was really well rested after the nice long nap I had in the first debate,'' he joked.
One consolation for him when he was outperformed in that first encounter last October was the knowledge that there were two more. He won both.
In Sunday night's encounter Kevin Rudd didn't do as badly as Obama's first effort, but he needed to perform better than he did to energise his campaign. Whether he gets another crack or two is now a matter of debate.
Before Sunday night Rudd tweeted he had lots of official briefs and appealed for a few jokes to punctuate his performance.
He could have done worse than borrow a line from Romney to describe his treatment at the hands of the News Ltd tabloids.
''My job is to lay out a positive vision for the future of the country. Their job is to make sure that no one else finds out about it,'' Romney said of the pro-Obama press.
While many commentators were underwhelmed by Sunday night's showdown, it was nonetheless the highlight of the campaign thus far - both leaders in the one place, fielding questions without notice before a national TV audience.
I felt Abbott was sharper and more concise, while Rudd seemed tired and even nervous. There was no emphatic winner.
Much of post-debate focus was not on the questions unanswered or the opportunities missed by both but on whether Rudd had deliberately breached the rules that forbade referring to notes, a charge he rejected outright. Legal or not, Rudd's use of notes projected a hint of uncertainty and prompted the mid-debate tweet from Liberal pollster Mark Textor that Rudd was reading not leading.
What now? The Rudd camp is still pushing for more formal debates, starting on Sunday with one hosted by the Seven Network. The Abbott camp prefers two ''town hall'' affairs, at the Rooty Hill RSL in Sydney's west and in Brisbane. Stay tuned.
