PRECIOUS-Gold edges up before Fed decision as jewellers buy
* Spot gold due to correct -technicals * Coming Up: U.S. FOMC rate decision; 1730 GMT (Updates prices, adds fresh quotes) By Lewa Pardomuan SINGAPORE, Jan 25 (Reuters) - Gold regained strength on Wednesday after an early dip spurred buying from jewellers in Asia, but prices were stuck in a range as investors awaited the outcome of the U.S. Federal Reserve's policy meeting, which could weigh on the dollar. The Fed, which will start a new practice of announcing policymakers' interest-rate projections, will probably conclude the meeting with a signal that interest rates will be held near zero into 2014, according to a Reuters poll. Any signs that interest rates will stay lower for longer could put pressure on the dollar, and boost gold's safe haven appeal, and prices. A weaker dollar would also make gold a more attractive buy for investors holding other currencies. Gold added $2.29 an ounce to $1,667.89 an ounce by 0637 GMT, off an intraday low of around $1,664 an ounce. Gold hit a 6-week high of $1,681.16 on Monday. "I am not sure about India, but yes, the Indonesians have been buying," said a dealer in Singapore, who also trades with top consumer India. "The Thais sold gold yesterday but they also bought back last night. Thailand is very much a market of their own." Volumes remained thin during China's week-long Lunar New Year holiday. "We've seen light buying from Indonesia, but we are still in a holiday mood. It looks like people will prefer to buy on dips. Premiums for gold bars are steady at $1," said another physical dealer in Singapore. "There's not much on silver, but we will still get demand from India or Thailand. We can't say if the demand is exceptionally good." Silver rose 23 cents to $32.24 an ounce. It rallied to $32.76 an ounce on Monday, its strongest since early December. Gold largely tracked the fortunes of the euro in the last two months of 2011, losing some of its safe haven appeal even as investors questioned the viability of the single currency. Gold fell by more than 10 percent in December. The euro fared reasonably well against the dollar on Wednesday after EU data showing surprising strength in manufacturing and services this month held out hope that the euro zone may escape recession. Greece kept hopes alive for a last-minute bond swap deal to avoid a messy default after euro zone officials sent talks back to square one by rejecting a final offer from the country's private bondholders. But the International Monetary Fund said Europe's debt crisis could tip the world economy into recession and a bigger firewall was urgently needed to keep the damage from spreading. U.S. February gold rose $3.5 an ounce to $1,668.0 an ounce. "After failing to crack the upside earlier this week, there is a chance it could take a look at support. We think that should hold. Indian and Thai investors are buying physical material towards the bottom of the range," ANZ said in a report. "This pattern may well continue for the rest of the week, with prices likely to trade towards the top of the band, and possibly through it, once Chinese markets reopen next week." Some Asian markets reopened on Wednesday but China and Hong Kong remained closed for the Lunar New Year holiday. Asian shares rose on Wednesday, underpinned by strong earnings from U.S. technology giant Apple, stabilising European money markets and falling euro zone debt yields, with investors shifting their focus to the Fed from Europe.

Pinkerton students win 48-Hour Film Project award
By HUNTER McGEE
Union Leader Correspondent | July 30. 2014 11:39PM
Pinkerton film students Colin Coviello, and Laura Wicik in a scene from the award-winning film "Inhale." (HUNTER McGEE/Union Leader Correspondent)
The Pinkerton students beat out several colleges and one high school team to claim the top prize for "Inhale," said Anne Parker, alumni director.
The route to the 48 Hour Film Project is creative and wacky, Parker said. Groups are assigned a character, a prop, and one line of dialogue after which they have 48 hours to script, shoot, edit, write a musical score and turn in a short film.
They chose to have two runners to play both leads in the film.
The male lead character is played by Coviello, and the female is played by Laura Wicik.

In this previous winter/spring, AT&T contracted with an outfit to bury some fiber-optic communications line down Hwy. 304 (River Road), seeding most of the raw land when they were finished.
They failed to seed most of the raw land they left from Luminary Methodist Church and south from there, including right-of-way and landowners' property.
Apparently they ran out of seed, and just tossed straw on top. Nothing grew for awhile, then weeds took over.
A great deal of that land is still raw looking.
This letter is written to express my heartfelt thanks and appreciation for those who help to make Kingston in Roane County such a great place to live.
This is a wonderful community with caring people. In recent months, I have witnessed a wonderful spirit of compassion and concern from our neighbors.
Correcting all of the misleading and blatantly false assertions in Gerald Largen's columns would be a full-time job, so I usually just avoid reading them.
Friday's was so outrageous that I am compelled to respond to his attack on the Cut, Cap and Balance plan.
The original framers of the Constitution had studied history and the nature of man.
We love hearing from our readers, especially when they express their opinions in a letter to the editor.
But now and then we get letters that, for one reason or another, we cannot run.
A recent example was one criticizing the tax assessor and her office.
A major reason this letter did not run was it was written by another person who has openly expressed running for the tax assessor's office.

First Amendment Center
Here we go again.
In a familiar legal skirmish, a judge has once again told a local government that it has to remove a Ten Commandments monument from public grounds because it violates the establishment clause of the First Amendment.
Senior District Judge Maurice Paul ordered Dixie County, Fla., officials to remove the monument from the grounds of the courthouse in Cross City.
My 17-pound pack, filled with water, lunch and rain gear, felt downright light as I plodded 9 miles uphill to the top of Mount LeConte.
After all, several years ago I was in failing health and my own weight was about double what it is now.
I could not have imagined then, while recovering from thyroid cancer and its complications, that I would be able to tackle this peak — my own personal Mount Everest of the Smokies.
As the regular reader of this column knows, we try to keep such readers abreast of important issues and developments in our government.
One such development about which much has been said and written is the proposed "Balanced Budget Amendment;" but despite all the talk and writing, little specific has been told or written about just exactly what this Amendment would entail, if adopted.
So that you, gentle reader, would know this, we print herewith the exact language of the Amendment, as proposed:
We were pleased to see that Lamar Alexander, the U.S. senator from Tennessee, was one of a handful of elected officials working in a bipartisan fashion to end the national budget standoff that has been threatening to crumble our economy.
These are shaky economic times, and while blancing the budget sounds good, cutting spending and programs now could easily send our situation into the kind of crash that could wreak worldwide disaster.
Alexander and his "Gang of Six" senators are to be commended for putting the American people ahead of political lines.

Flying Tv Cameras Could Make Maps History
John A. Ciampa wants the world to be mapped with airborne video cameras. The Rochester Institute of Technology professor says still video images could be more accurate than conventional maps for many uses, including property surveys. Ciampa has invented a system that calculates the precise latitude and longitude of every dot on a video image. The idea is to start the camera at a known set of geographical coordinates. Then, measure the distance and direction you move from that position by keeping track of landmarks such as steeples, rocks, and trees as they move through the range of view. That kind of on-the-fly measurement is too complex for a person, but it's easy for a computer.
Ciampa says his video-mapping concept would be especially good in Eastern Europe and Russia, where maps are primitive and conflicting. In the U. S., one Orwellian concept is to keep track of parolees by transmitting their position coordinates to police stations. By superimposing those coordinates onto a picture pulled up from a video-map data base, the police could spy on cons who are about to, say, enter a bank where they don't have an account.

Twenty-four hours of storms have probably brought much of it to an end. Yet it deserves to be recorded that, across much of the British Isles, 2010 has produced one of the most colourful autumns in years. Our welly-wearing neighbours in the Country diary column have tracked it all locally and lovingly, from Land's End up via the New Forest and leafy Weardale to windswept South Uist. Further south, nature's displays have been particularly generous. The national arboretum at Westonbirt in Gloucestershire has had one of its vividest years. Wales has been ablaze too. Not far away, the BBC's Justin Webb, still adjusting to his return to this country from the US, was overwhelmed the other day by the sight of a New England vista in old England – "the whole marvellous copper-tinged, yellow-flecked gorgeousness laid out before us, with the city of Bath thrown in for good measure". Yet we in Britain do not seem to be alone. From Kashmir to Connemara, the northern hemisphere has enjoyed a symphony of autumn foliage that most people, and certainly proud New Englanders, tend to think is unique to a north American fall. David Cameron, with images of a superb arboreal season in his Cotswolds constituency in his mind's eye, arrives today in a China, whose beech, gingko, persimmon, smoke trees, torch trees and dogwood are almost as proudly red and gold right now as the national flag. The fallen leaves need sweeping up now, but this has been an autumn to bring shafts of joy to the glummest soul.

Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird will meet as soon as early next week with the Canadian diplomats the federal government is recalling from Israel, the West Bank and the UN.
In an interview with the National Post, Mr. Baird said he will meet with those representatives in Ottawa for a frank discussion on Canada's next move after Thursday's UN vote that implicitly recognized a Palestinian state.
Despite widespread speculation, Mr. Baird said Canada is not considering breaking off relations with the Mahmoud Abbas' Palestinian Authority and deferred questions about Canadian aid to International Cooperation Minister Julian Fantino.
"We want to get the advice and counsel of the representatives closest to the file," Mr. Baird said in a telephone interview from New York, where he joined the United States and Israel in vehemently opposing the Palestinian bid Thursday.

For a bundt, that's right.
I have been thinking about this problem today and one thing that came to mind was your oven. I am beginning to think that the temperatures have changed from the old oven to the new one. Does this make sense , I don't know ? As you seem to be doing everything the same..........EXcept the only thing different is your stove.
You sound like someone who really enjoys cooking. Have you ever thought of making your cake ? I have a great recipe for a White Butter Cake and its tastes great. I would love to help you with it if you would like to take this project on. Just an idea.
The other thought is : have you ever separated the eggs ? whip the whites till their light and foamy and add them towards the end .
hi, and thank you. i would love to try your white butter cake, it just sounds good. and i really havent tryed seperating the eggs but at this point i will try anything. i did check the temp with a digital temp. guage and it was right. i just cant help but think that there is something wrong with the oven itself but WHAT. HEAT IS HEAT, wouldn't you think? i've called the company who made the oven and filed a complaint but i think it was all for naut.
Hi there Feethurt,
This is a recipe a good friend sent for me to try-found off net , it should work for you . Now we get to practice a scratch cake in your new oven. The first thing you may want to do is carefully read the 9 ingredients you will need for this cake. Half of these items you might already have in your home.
White Butter Cake
2 large eggs, separated
1 ¾ cups sifted cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon of salt
½ cup of unsalted butter , at room temperature
1 cup granulated white sugar , divided
1 teaspoon pure vanilla
½ cup milk
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
1) Preheat oven 350 F. (or 177 degrees C.)
2) Place rack in center of oven
3) Butter and flour two – 8 inch round cake pans. Line bottoms of pans with parchment paper and grease and flour parchment paper (cakes will not stick)
4) While eggs are still cold separate the eggs, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another bowl. Cover the two bowls and allow the eggs to come to room temperature.
5) In a mixing bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
6) In bowl of electric mixer, beat the butter until soft (about 1-2 minutes). Add ¾ cup of the sugar and beat until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add vanilla extract and beat until combined.
7) With mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and milk, in three additions, beginning and ending with the flour.
8) In a clean bowl of your electric mixer, with whisk attachment, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and continue beating until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining ¼ cup of sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. With a rubber spatula gently fold a little of the whites into the batter to lighten it, and then fold in the remaining whites until combined. Do not over mix the batter or it will deflate.
9) Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and smooth the tops with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Bake in a preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
10) Cool the cakes on a wire rack (or what you have available) for ten minutes. Place a wire rack on top of the cake pan and invert, lifting off the pan. Once the cakes have completely cooled, wrap in plastic and place the cake layers in the freezer for at least an hour . This is done to make filling and frosting the cakes easier.
This might seem tedious and long , but once you make it for the first time you will understand why the steps are there. We have some great bakers here on Cheftalk, and I don't mind anyone adding their thoughts. You will succeed.
We are here to help you if you have any questions.
I use this cake with a blackberry buttercream , wonderful.

Piper Jaffray Ups RealNetworks to Outperform
Piper Jaffray upgraded RealNetworks (RNWK) to outperform from market perform, explaining that the digital content software company has cash and a solid business model.
Analyst Aaron Kessler believes RealNetworks' music business segment remains on track. Meanwhile the company has been quietly acquiring a portfolio of investments in the gaming industry, which Kessler thinks is likely underappreciated. He says RealNetworks will have about $5.70 per share in cash by the end of the first quarter in 2007, and the company will likely use that money for acquisitions and share buybacks. He upgraded his $8.70 stock price target to $10. He sees 98 cents 2006 earnings per share (EPS) and 49 cents in 2007.

Nearly three months of hard work and preparation will culminate this weekend, when Spencer County middle and high school students premiere their production of "To Kill a Mockingbird."
Spencer County farmers are getting a bit nervous as last month went down in the history books as Kentucky's wettest on record, hindering crop and vegetable planting.
UPDATED FRIDAY, MAY 6: State road crews are planning repairs between mile points 6.5 and 6.7 on Ky. 2885 – also known as West River Road – for Wednesday night, according to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.
"Due to equipment availability, the repairs on Ky. 2885 in Spencer County have been postponed until Wednesday evening," spokesperson Andrea Clifford said in an email to the Spencer Magnet. "Work is expected to be complete by 6 a.m. on Thursday."
Is this the biggest flood you've witnessed in Spencer County?

May 14 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the football field
May 28 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the football field
June 11 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Ray Jewell Park
Rain has continued to hamper the schedule of Spencer County's baseball and softball teams but a brief break in the drops did allow for a few games this past week.
Growing up I always hated the Dallas Cowboys, but I'm not sure why. I liked quarterback Roger Staubach, loved the uniforms and Coach Tom Landry seemed like a really decent guy. I think it all stemmed from the arrogance that the organization had by labeling itself "America's Team."
Just what gave them the right to be called "America's Team?" I mean there were over two dozen cities with professional football teams, including the one I rooted for, Cincinnati. Why did they get to be America's team?

University of Florida Associtate Athletic Director Jamie McCloskey told WCJB TV20 today that the University is investigating comments made by recent junior college transfer Maranda Smith regarding her recruitment by Urban Meyer.
In addition, comments made by her boyfriend and fellow junior college transfer Carl Moore may also step over the limit of legal recruiting policies. In a recent interview, Moore told WCJB about Meyer's efforts to recruit him to Florida. "My mind was on (the University of Southern California) but it got weird because Coach Meyer came out, Coach Mullen came out, and Coach (Billy Gonzalez) came out; they all came out at once but then they all came out at different times during the week, so I basically had a Florida coach there everyday," Moore said.
If Moore's comments are true, this may be a violation of the NCAA recruiting rulebook (18.104.22.168) which states "Six in-person off-campus contacts per student athlete shall be permitted during this time period with not more than one permitted in any calendar week."
A University spokesperson said the University will not have a comment until it has conducted its own internal search.

FXR Projector Retrofit in P46, in 2004 320i
Good morning folks, I'd like to start off with some background information.
The BMW 320i comes with a halogen setup, with no option from the factory to upgrade to xenon unless you upgrade your entire car. (325, 330 etc)
OEM Halogen:
The owner upgraded to a unit called the Depo Projector46. This unit "looks" wonderful from the outside, but sitting behind the light you'll quickly notice it's poor projector qaulity. TBH, this isn't any better than the halogen setup. The projector outright blows. It does come with AE's, and does look better than halogen units!
This is the depo p46 (as it's commonly called):
Here are some comparison shots for the projector vs an OEM projector, in terms of cutoff, spread, hotspots etc:
Another p46
This now leads me to the projector retrofit!
What we're going to do is replace the crappy projector in the depo unit with what's called an FXR projector. This is a replica of the infiniti FX projector, known as one of the best of the best. This is a BIXENON unit, so we'll have to code the car accordingly (for stalk control, example: pull back activates inner halogen, push forward activates BIXENON, as compared to non bixenon setup it would just activate the same inner halogen).
The units just arrived today from Mike at F1 Autohaus. This is one of the only places I have found to buy this, not affliated in anyway, just great service and great price. F1Autohaus
You can see the replica E46 shroud in the background, to help keep it looking clean etc!
A picture of the FXR cutoff:
snitz's retro, and here is a gorgeous flicker pic:
That is all for now, we embark on the journey sooner or later. Thanks for reading this huge ass post! I will update later!
Ask any questions, I'll try and help as best I can. Projected HID is the best for driving, hands down! And properly done with GOOD projectors makes it even better. :hitit:
Here is a writeup by volksfragen, it was done on his car and we did the work together so far:
Hey guys,
This is my first DIY/Retrofit Guide.
It wont be step by step but it will cover the general way things were done in this retrofit.
Id first like to thank Mike from F1Autohaus for hooking myself and Snowcatxx87 up with these FX-R's. They are great Projectors. Quality is superb!
F1Autohaus- http://f1autohaus.myshopify.com/
Also a big shout out to Snowcatxx87 for helping and telling me how to do stuff the right way :)
First off I am going to start with the products I purchased for this retrofit, then tools needed, then the steps taken so far!
Parts Needed
For this specific Retrofit, I am using Projector46's as my base Headlamp housing.
Umnitza: http://umnitza.com/umnitza-projector...on-p-1099.html
FX-R Hybrid Projectors
F1Autohaus: http://f1autohaus.myshopify.com/prod...rid-projectors
E46 Projector Shrouds
F1Autohaus: http://f1autohaus.myshopify.com/products/e46-shrouds
Tools Needed
Various screw drivers
Dremel with various attachments
Drill with various sized bits
Files, Sandpaper, ect.
(Anything you think you'll need for cleaning up dremel cuts)
JB Weld
Available at walmart, Canadian Tire (In Canada :cool), and probably many other hardware stores.
Various different screws/bolts
I ended up getting 8-32x2.5inch bolts to mount the P46's to the halogen housing and 10x1.5inch metal screws to mount the FX-R's into the P46 mounting holes.
Rust-Oleum High Heat Satin Black Rattle Paint
I decided to paint everything matte black to go with the theme of my car.
This paint said not to use primer, So everything was sanded and cleaned, then painted.
To start here is a pic of my workspace:
Disassemble Headlight Housing
I did not to a write up on how to disassemble the P46's completely, and after some quick searching I could not find one. But honestly If you cant figure it out, I don't think you should be trying this DIY :confused
All I can say is take it slow and look at everything and how it works and slowly disassemble everything.
Modifications for FX-R Mounting
The first part I tackled was modifying the P46 Headlight assembly and FX-R Projector.
Shown in the picture below you can see what I had to cut off for the FX-R to fit into the P46 projector housing:
Once that was cut, I had to drill 4 new holes in the FX-R's for them to screw into the P46 projector mounts. In the following pictures the unmodified Projector is on the left, and the one I've modified is on the right. I also had to dremel out some of the lip on the projector so the screw would fit. (Original Mounting holes in white, New ones in red):
Once the holes were created and everything dremeled out, it mounted flush, and all I had to do was screw it in!
Next was to modify the Shroud ordered from F1Autohaus to fit in the P46 headlight assembly. I basically had to cut off all the chrome flange all the way back to the lipped part, as you can see by the following pictures. the first one is how I purchased them, the second one is after I dremeled most of the shroud off. I also had to cut a flat section off the top so it would fit in the P46 headlight assembly (shown by the red arrow)
I then went to fit the newly modified shroud, and It would not go in far enough to the assembly to look good over the projector lens. I came to the realization that it was the 4 plastic tabs in the assembly that needed to be trimmed down. I trimmed a bit off so it fit nicely over the projector lens. The first picture is the tabs trimmed and the second one is the shroud and projector test fitted.
Now that completes the retrofit for the FX-R into the P46 headlight assembly. I was first done here and thought to myself, well I still have another projector, why not use it!? So next I will show you what I did to get the P46, to work in the Halogen (Hi Beam) spot.
Mounting The P46 Projector Into Halogen Housing
First step for the Hi Beam projector retrofit was to remove the old halogen bulb mount by dremeling it off. I slowly trimmed it down so the projector sat the correct depth in the bowl where I needed it so the shroud would be flush with the top of the bowl:
Next the P46 projector had to be trimmed off in order to fit into the halogen bowl. the red lines are how it looked before trimming. and the white arrows point to the new drilled holes.
In order to secure the P46 Projectors to the Halogen bowl, I set the projector in the bowl exactly where I wanted it, and marked the 4 holes through the new holes drilled in the projector.
In the following pictures, you can see how the P46 projector gets mounted into the bowl.
I always hated the Depo logo on the P46 projector shroud so **** it, I dremeled it off and sanded it down smooth, and surprise, no more DEPO text :eek:
In this picture you can see how the P46 shroud sits flush with the top of the halogen bowl.
That is all for the P46 Projector in the halogen bowl retrofit.
Final Fixup before Paint
Now that is basically it for the retrofit. but during the project so far many thing broke. I was surprised at how crappy the P46 headlight assembly was. The plastic had cracked in a few places due to minimal force. I would expect a little more quality out of an after market part...
So out came the JB weld to fix the cracks:
Paint Time!
Like stated early, this Hi Temp satin black paint asked for no primer. So we sanded all the pieces down, and did 9 very THIN coats to cover it very evenly and they turned out sexy:
Final Test Fit
Here are a few pictures of the final test fit before paint.
and here's our cars watching us work! (eww my OEM halogens look gross)
Thats all for now...
This is all I have done so far, I will post updates and such as I get them done. please feel free to ask any questions!
Thanks guys!
Cutoff/Color without bulb spacer: (note, not using the correct d2s bulbs, but a shaved h7 rebased - proper bulbs being shipped)
Flicker... Hmm
Two HID's on:
Cutoff from ONLYpassenger FXR:
FXR shutter up:
FXR Shutter up AND inner:
Test fit of lense:
Towards the end of the night, so much playing with accessory power - this needed to be done, haha!
Both sides completed!
Driverside cutoff level:
Another update. The 320i was too slow for the owner, so he sold and got an e46 M. He's had it for one day, and we worked in the garage for 6+ hours. We moved the lights into the M! Direct swap. We even got autoleveling to work.
After some programming, turning off the corner lights, daytime running light disable, fogs allowed to be on with highbeam, and bixenon + halogen inner (we need this for the quad projector)....
Nice, looking forward to reading more. Does your retrofit require the use of any of your P46 parts?
Any other questions just PM me, I am also in the same city as you:rofl:
Snowcat, I know you've been a strong critic of the P46's. In your opinion, is the FXR version enough of an improvement to overcome your concerns?
Or do you still recommend retrofitting OEM xenons?
I just retrofitted the FXR into my OEM Xenons. The OEM projectores are awfull compared to the FXR's.
:woot: looking forward to following your progress :thumbsup:
FXR are better than OEM, but my lights are adaptive (they swivel when I turn), which I love and I'd lose that if I did a retro on my car. FXR>OEM>*
update with write up!
wow nice diy writeup, very clean craftsmanship and install.
What do you think the end cost will be? Can you retain bixenon functionality? I'd love to increase my lighting even more (although w/ the bixenons+halogen highs, my current setup is probably the brightest I've seen so far)
End cost is looking at around 180 CANADIAN.
The FXR is a great projector. I have pictures to upload tonight, had a busy weekend and didn't get around to it. (hiking trips)
We're enabling all the lights as well, and man, this is mega bright. Firstly the cutoff is cleaner than OEM, but the inner xenon with a removed cutoff is just insane.
Pics will be uploaded in 8 or so hours!
MUCH Needed passenger update!
nice, its looking awesome so far!! dude i wish you wouldn't have done the quad....cause i have my old p46 projectors and my old e46 bixenon projectors laying around doing nothing, and its giving me ideas :idea::4ngie:......how sick would it be to have quad bi-xenons....lows, highs, extra highs, ÜBER HIGHS :excited:!!!
The guy was like, I want OEM lights P46 blow - I said wait, lets try a retro. He said ok. On the way here I said, lets move the p46 to the inner and it just kept on going LOL!
Quads are awesome, and it LOOKs awesome. You def have the parts so do it up man!
I'm glad I convinced him to push the inner projector forward more, to sit flush with the bowl, it makes it look better than being sunken in.
The other side is DONE and awaiting bumper modifications before it all goes backtogether.
Would that "additional xenon retrofit" option under SSS allow me to use HIDs w/ the inner bulbs without having flickering issues?
^ Not sure if they ever had a HID option for the inner from factory? Doubt it. We don't get flickering problems on the inner...

A USA Gymnastics Junior Olympic National Team Member in 2010 and 2011, Megan was the 2010 national champion on balance beam and she also placed second on uneven bars and fourth in the all-around. In 2011 she was the USA Gymnastics Region III all-around, uneven bars and balance beam champion. At the 2011 USA Gymnastics Junior Olympic National Championships Megan placed second in the all-around, fourth on balance beam and sixth on uneven bars.
"Megan is a determined person with an exceptional work ethic," says UNC head coach Derek Galvin. "She possesses all the qualities necessary to be an outstanding collegiate student athlete."
Pheil trains under the guidance of Brad Harris and Amy Schulthess at Tampa Bay Turners Gymnastics in St. Petersburg, Fla. An outstanding student, Pheil attends St. Petersburg High School. During her Junior Olympic career Pheil has been the Florida State all-around champion at every level for levels 4-10. In 2009, she was the USA Gymnastics Level 9 Eastern National all-around and uneven bars champion. At the 2010 USA Gymnastics Junior Olympic Level 10 National Championships Pheil placed fourth on floor exercise and placed 19th in the all-around. In 2011 she was the Junior Olympic National Invitational Tournament floor exercise champion.
"Christina is a steady all-around performer who is capable of competing on all four events as a college competitor," says Galvin. "She is a gifted athlete who possesses all the qualities to excel both as an athlete and as an outstanding student during her college career."
"Coach (Amy) Smith and I are delighted that Megan and Christina will be joining us here at Carolina for the fall semester of 2013," stated Galvin. "They will blend perfectly with the other young ladies on our team. They will be great additions to both our team and our campus community. They each come from families that place a high value on the quality of their education, and they have grown up in homes that enjoy the excitement and enthusiasm found in sports. I believe they will both be awesome Tar Heels."

Hardie Board + Trimming out doors?
I am getting ready to side my home with Hardie Planks. When I Trim the doors on my back porch (covered aluminum porch with concrete slab) do I need to hold the trim board up 2"? If so, what suggestions do you have to fill that gap?
Post a picture so we can see just what it is your holding it up 2" from.
Is the door threshold level with the slab or stoop on the outside?
The threshold is level/flush with the slab. The outside concrete and interior slab are level. The siding would be 2" from the slab. The threshold and PVC jams go to the slab.
A threshold sitting level with a doors threshold is a sure way to get water under it and into the room inside.
Concider at least adding a Jamb sill under the door set in silicone.
Use vinyl brick moulding not wood.

During coverage of Arnold Schwarzengger's admitted affair on Tuesday, members of NBC's Today promoted his wife and their former colleague, Maria Shriver. Correspondent Natalie Morales declared that despite "much public scrutiny" of their marriage, "Many say it was Maria's enduring support through it all that allowed them to become one of America's most powerful couples."
Morales described Shriver as, "a member of the Kennedy political dynasty who became a network news correspondent....[then] left her long-time job at NBC News to support her husband's political career." Morales touted how Shriver's "support then, led to his landslide victory," and remarked: "Since then, the Republican foreign-born action movie star and the liberal polished member of one of America's most prestigious families, became a formidable team."
Following Morales's report, co-host Matt Lauer spoke with HollywoodLife.com editor-in-chief Bonnie Fuller and psychiatrist Gail Saltz. At the end of that discussion, Lauer asked Saltz: "Generally speaking, what allows a marriage to succeed and what generally ends a marriage after something like this?" Saltz oddly used the Kennedy family legacy as an example of how a marriage could last: "...if people can get together and understand what brought them together....acknowledge how important the life narrative that they have shared together is....To a family like a Kennedy family, who knows how important a life narr – a life history is to the meaning of the rest of their lives, that's a possibility."
Here is a full transcript of the May 17 segment:
MATT LAUER: Let us begin this half hour with more on that overnight stunner from Arnold Schwarzenegger. That he fathered a child more than ten years ago with a woman who worked in his home. Today national correspondent Natalie Morales has more. Natalie, good morning.
NATALIE MORALES: And good morning to you, Matt. Well, there's no comment this morning from Maria Shriver, according to her spokesman, but over the years their marriage has been the source of much public scrutiny, with reported troubles and allegations Schwarzenegger had groped women. Many say it was Maria's enduring support through it all that allowed them to become one of America's most powerful couples.
[ON-SCREEN HEADLINE: Schwarzenegger Bombshell; Maria Shriver's Journey]
Maria Shriver's a member of the Kennedy political dynasty who became a network news correspondent, working for an extended time with NBC News. Shriver left her long-time job at NBC News to support her husband's political career. On the campaign trail in 2003, Shriver defended Schwarzenegger, who was accused of groping women during his time as an actor.
MARIA SHRIVER: You can listen to people who have never met Arnold or who met him for five seconds 30 years ago or you can listen to me.
MORALES: Her support then, led to his landslide victory. Since then, the Republican foreign-born action movie star and the liberal polished member of one of America's most prestigious families, became a formidable team. Maria stood by her husband throughout his time in office, becoming one of the most visible first ladies in California, as she brought attention to volunteerism and women's issues.
But that all changed when Schwarzenegger left office in January. The two effectively began leading separate lives. While Schwarzenegger jetted around the world, looking to restart his acting career, Maria has stayed closer to home, working on her women's empowerment website and spending time with her four children. Video of Shriver last month showed her without her wedding ring. And two months ago on YouTube, she posted a video, talking openly about transitions.
SHRIVER: It's so stressful to not know what you're doing next. How did you find your transition? Personal, professional, emotional, spiritual, financial. How did you get through it?
MORALES: Last Friday, after the couple's separation was made public, Shriver sent a Twitter message to her more than 750,000 followers, 'Thank you all for the kindness, support and compassion. I am humbled by the love. Thank you.' And according to the Los Angeles Times, some of Shriver's friends say she had been unhappy for years, though she made no decisions until after her father, Sargent Shriver, died earlier this year. Matt.
LAUER: Alright, Natalie, thank you very much. Bonnie Fuller is the editor-in-chief of HollywoodLife.com. Dr. Gail Saltz is a psychiatrist and Today contributor. Ladies, good morning to both of you.
BONNIE FULLER: Good morning.
GAIL SALTZ: Good morning, Matt.
LAUER: Let's start with a couple of things that I think are going to raise a lot of eyebrows. First of all, he told Maria this after he left the governor's office. And I think that's going to cause some anger in people who are saying he stayed quiet to protect his political career before he came forward. How do you feel about that?
FULLER: Oh, I think he absolutely stayed quiet to protect his political career and also to protect his marriage, because she was such an incredible asset to him. She stood by him all those years and he knew it would be devastating that somebody so close to them that she had known for 20 years was the person who had cheated with him and who he'd fathered a child with.
LAUER: And devastating because she stood by him in 2003 and made that definitive statement and then to find this out some ten years later.
FULLER: That's correct, makes her look like a fool.
LAUER: The other, Gail, is when you think about it, that he knew this before he ran for public office.
SALTZ: Correct.
LAUER: So he must have felt he could keep this secret, despite the fact that any public official in this country faces enormous scrutiny.
SALTZ: And he did keep it secret. I think the issue is when you think about infidelity, what's painful? What's painful is betrayal. So this is a different kind and level of betrayal, when you keep a secret that you had an affair with someone who was in the home. And now there's living proof and you kept that a secret in the service of your career instead of putting your wife's concerns first.
LAUER: These are both survivors. They've been through ups and downs. And what struck me when I first heard about this is not them as much, Maria and Arnold, but the kids.
SALTZ: Right.
LAUER: Their four children, they range in age from 13 to 21. In some ways, I would imagine as someone who counsels couples and individuals, they have to find a way put now to put their personal anger aside and keep their kids in some kind of protected place.
SALTZ: Well, they have – they do have to try to protect their children, they have to try to work this out between themselves. And work as a family so that the children can maintain a good mother and a good father. I would also say that I feel what's terrible, to some degree, or going to be very difficult, is this child. This child who believed that one person was his father for the first decade of his growing up, who is now undoubtedly going to discover that another person is his father. And that will be excruciatingly painful.
FULLER: Well I think what's also going to be very difficult is that I'm sure that Maria and Arnold's children, they knew this child very well and they knew the woman who he had an affair with. And so that's very confusing. They were in their household for 20 years. They probably played with this child growing up and the child played with them. So the whole relationship is going to be extremely complicated between all of them.
LAUER: Gail we – go ahead.
SALTZ: I was just going to say, what's a shame is that normally I would say a 25-year marriage, even if it ends, I would say was a successful marriage. That's a quarter century. That's really good. Unfortunately, this is going to taint all of that.
LAUER: But we have all seen cases in the past where some marriages survive after an even like this, others fail. Is there a rule of thumb? Generally speaking, what allows a marriage to succeed and what generally ends a marriage after something like this?
SALTZ: Generally, if people can get together and understand what brought them together in the first place and that is still there. And they acknowledge how important the life narrative that they have shared together is and how – and that turns out to be valuable to them. And to these two people that could be the case. To a family like a Kennedy family, who knows how important a life narr – a life history is to the meaning of the rest of their lives, that's a possibility. I don't count that out completely.
LAUER: Gail Saltz and Bonnie Fuller. Ladies, thanks.
FULLER: Thank you.
LAUER: I appreciate it. Good seeing you both.

Ive got a cape built 1945 in upstate NY. The code calls for R49 here. There's no way I can get that much insulation in the storage space behind the knee wall much less above the ceilings. Here''s what's happened so far:
1994 roofer installed ridge vent (why I can't say).
NY Energy Program did review in 1997 and suggested improving insulation in attic area. Floors behind knee wall had cellulose blown in (R19 at best). Knee walls have R19 installed (backwards--kraft paper facing out rather than against wall with heat) - again, don't ask me why..
Above ceiling area from knee wall to peak is cellulose blow in insulation (settled over time).
From soffit to knee wall is covered with rigid vent for air space at roof and then R21 insulation over it.
Heres the thing. I've got ice dams every year in the rear of the house. Front is fine it gets sun. There are holes in the soffit and it seems to be getting air but not sure if its moving above knee wall (at ceiling).
One issue: gutter may not be angled properly.
Question: I can't seem to get to R49...or am I missing something?
Is there adequate air flow? There is no gable vent...should there be?
The bedrooms upstairs have 1/4 "sheetrock". Not heated - in fact, we use space for cold storage (60 degrees). Yet, both rooms are hot -- as is the attic now (late May). It doesn't seem to be helping.
Oh,, and I read that fixtures, wiring, etc. should have air gaps plugged. That didn't happen..
Thoughts? Suggestions?
You need to air seal the attic and bring insulation up to minimum Code for location. If the exterior wall top plates are above the ceiling line, you need to seal them from delivering warm air to the junction. Ice dams: http://www.buildingscience.com/docum...46-dam-ice-dam
Stack effect: http://www.wag-aic.org/1999/WAG_99_baker.pdf
Finding air leaks: http://www.finehomebuilding.com/PDF/Free/021105092.pdf
Getting enough attic ventilation/insulation with existing sloped ceilings can be a problem. Have you looked into conditioned attics? http://www.buildingscience.com/docum...d-roof-systems
You need to re-roof if you expect to get anywhere near R-49 with a cape. Once the roof is stripped to bare substrate (plywood) you'll want to install vented nailbase panels which look like this: http://www.buildingscience.com/docum...1_roof_web.jpg
They are typically a polyisocyanurate foam board bonded to blocking for an air space and then a layer of either osb or plywood. Depending on the manufacturer you can get varying insulation, air space, and plywood thicknesses. Once those are installed you lay down new shingles.

i have 1977 GMC Sierra with 305 V8 and a Rodchester 2bbl. It runs very cold and with 3speed on tree it requires more downshifting that normal to maintain RPM's. I want to covert to throttle body, but which one. I presume the Tbilisi on 1987 305 V8 would be closest match, but just guessing. Any ideas as to how to proceed?
Head to the u-serve salvage and start measuring throttle bodies. There used to be a company called "Turbo City" that sold a lot of conversion parts. A while back, Hot Rod put TBI off of a Mopar on a Maverick 6 and then blew the whole thing up with N20. So it's mostly a matter of getting a good used TBI and rigging up the lines and electric pump. An '80s TPI system would probably be a better swap though, if you can find one on an old F-Body or Corvette. The longer runners will pump out more torque than a TBI system
--------------------------------460_BBF_Turbo-in-CC (formerly Dr511scj) "This guy has no life other than posting endlessly on carcraft.com." -- Car Craft, July 2005-------October 1, 2003: " I'm thinking a couple of...turbos, blowing through an old Powerstroke intercooler...on a Super Cobra Jet-head 460 would be mad cheap and make sick power." -------"I have no problem with your...talking to several versions of yourself...or pointing out our failure to do a turbo story ...." --Douglas "CC/Rambler" Glad
305 TBI will work.. there are adaptors to mount the 305 throttle body on the early intake...there is things that you might need to know...the TBI intake is different in that there is a BIG coolant passage under the plenum .. to warm the incoming air and fuel to stop it from puddling.. you might get along with a straight conversion.. and it will probably work just fine...be sure that you check the small Cap HEI distributer.. for cracks in the layer under the reluctor.. that will give you headaches.. reman small cap HEI distributers are available and work far better than a worn out original.. cleaner signal to the module.. please.. plan on installing the oxygen sensor .. as these systems DO NOT WORK WITHOUT an oxygen sensor to feedback during closed loop operation to fine tune the fuel mixture.. TBI and TPI intakes are also usually equipped with a slightly different intake bolt pattern...where the first two and the last two intake bolts are at the same angle and location.. the center two.. on either side of the exhaust crossover are angled upward slightly...there are also a BUNCH of new self tuning fuel injection systems available now..

Breaches of lease 'capable of remedy': A technical or practical approach?
Christensen, Sharon A. & Duncan, William D. (2006) Breaches of lease 'capable of remedy': A technical or practical approach? Australian Property Law Journal, 13(2), pp. 204-216.
|PDF (77kB)
The service of a notice to remedy a breach of a lease covenant is the essential precursor to a lessor enforcing a right of re-entry where the lease contains a re-entry clause. If the notice can be invalidated by the lessee, subsequent proceedings will be misconceived. A failure to specify in the notice how a breach may be remedied, where the breach is capable of remedy or where compensation may be sought in lieu, may cause the invalidation of the notice. There are significant differences of opinion between the English and Australian courts on this question. This article explores these differences in the light of a recent English Court of Appeal decision Akici v LR Butlin Ltd [2006] 1 WLR 201. This case strongly suggests that the more practical interpretation of the Australian courts of the expression "if the breach is capable of remedy" is the correct approach instead of the more technical and restrictive approach that has been previously accepted in England.

how much for the aston cygnet upgrade ?
Salt Lake City was not discovered by Dracula and the shark people.
I would SERIOUSLY buy this car if I can get a Cygnet body-kit and interior aftermarket upgrade. There is something about that Cygnet interior that gets to me.
Call me shallow, I even like this GTR body kit
This kit cost $6 grand. Kinda pricey.
Somebody should create a bespoke aftermarket tailoring company to build lavish interior and body kits. They could rack some serious coin for those looking to spice up their commuters.
Let's all remember this car comes standard with a/c, automatic transmission, power windows, a decent stereo... and IIRC - this car is very quiet and comfortable riding inside.
If it also has cruise control for $16k (with destination), that's actually a decent price for all the stuff (and the Scion/Toyota badge).
This isn't a Smart.
This is a car that is actually comfortable in a way that most small cars are not... it's like a Smart car made by somebody like Mercedes.
(and why Aston chose it for the eco rebadge)
If urban dwellers test drive this car, it will sell well.
I predict.

"Sometimes, I have a sudden urge to fart on this chair."
It was impressed by its ability to fit a seat in the back, but I also feel like that overall it compromises too much to the other passengers in the front for it.
Even with the better drivetrain, I would still choose the smart only because it doesn't feel like a dungeon.
Or for that absurd amount of money, I would get the 500.
Ok so I'm curious. What are the actual numbers on the iQ in the ROW?
I was expecting a $11,995 price point and hoping for $9995. At $10,000 I'd have tried to fit my fat butt in one just for the laughs but at $16,000.... I'd rather pick up a fairly lightly used LS430 and deal with 20mpg. Apples to Lahmas but whatever.
edited to include google info
Just found this thread on a UK site... corrected mpg runs from 19.2mpg to 50.8mpg.

You can sleep in a car, but you can't track a house!
Thats too bad, I kind of like this car. The 12-13k price range would have been perfect.
does anyone make decent looking cars anymore?!
Queens 718
what is my incentive to buy this over a bigger car? I dont think small cars are necessary. Especially not for me. But even if you need a small car in the city, why is the IQ taking market share? Give us small electric appliances. Ride a motorbike. Or take public transit. Im sorry but the only people who will buy this stupid car are people who want an image on wheels.
RIP Cosmic TDI
Seems like a tough sell at that price. A 3-door '12 Yaris will probably start lower (though with less equipment). It should do better than the Smart, but that's not saying much...

"The whole economy is hinged on potholes." --Ray Magliozzi
Hubcap Business on hiatus while I finish the Pontiac Project and The House | Philly/NJ highways blog Windshield Time
I know it is well-equipped and all, but that is a lot pricier than I would have thought.
No way i'd buy this over a 2 unless there was significant mpg difference.For comparison, the iQ's $15,995 price tag means that it's slightly more expensive than both the $15,500 Fiat 500 and the $14,730 Mazda2, both of which off significantly greater utility. There's still no word on EPA mileage estimates for the iQ.
Too much money. Even a mid-level smart fortwo isn't that pricey and that's a huge flop.
We have searched every square inch of this base and all we have found is porno, porno, PORNO!
Fiat 500 over this phone-booth looking piece, especially for the price.
What I do for a living? This is a small part of it www.lehmanvolvo.blogspot.com ...and now, so is this: www.infinitiofmechanicsburg.blogspot.com
They're insane if they think people will take this over the 500 or Mazda2, Scion (Toyota) badge or not.
What's with the prices on these subcompact cars? No wonder they don't sell all that well since they're about the same as a reasonably equipped compact car in many cases--and the fuel mileage differences are negligible. I was reading MTs review of the Hyundai Accent for the price of $17k. For an Accent? I just built the cheapest Accent Hyundai offers (the GLS sedan) and as soon as you go with the automatic and the premium package, you're at almost $17.3. For that? Why even sell a subcompact if it isn't either A) going to offer much better mileage B) offer a real cost savings. An elentra comparably equipped is only $1500 more!
I suspect the iQ will do as poorly as the Smart cars.

The 500 I am driving also has automatic everything, red brake calipers behind aluminum rims, satellite radio, and a sunroof. and a nice interior. I am not familiar with the base level pricing and value on these small cute cars - but don't most of them come with decent base equipment? Not sure the iQ would really stand out, there.
Once US Americans step outside the overwhelmingly present price/volume attitude, my guess is that $1,000 here or there anyway is less important than practicality, a nice interior, and the (somewhat ill-defined) cuteness factor.
Although I have to say, from the looks and questions I am getting, my anecdotal experience is the 500 seems to attract most attention outside a disappointing gap in the 20-40 year old range...
I thought for sure it would be $12,000.
So it is more expensive than the larger, more powerful Yaris.
Don't get it.
Not stylish enough or enough content to be luxury compact and priced out of the basement price car range.

This is weird. It turns out that all the U.S. wireless carriers claiming to have 4G networks actually don't, according to the global standards group that determines how many Gs a network gets based on peak download speed benchmarks. How inconvenient is that? As Barbara Hernandez of PCWorld writes:
Last month, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), a United Nations agency which creates global standards for communications technology, assessed existing networks and determined that neither WiMax, operated by Sprint Nextel and partner Clearwire, nor Long Term Evolution (LTE), soon to be launched by Verizon, could be called 4G networks. Only the LTE-Advanced and WiMax 2, which are only in the demo stage, would be considered a true 4G network. In essence, all American carriers are lying if they say they are 4G. The reason any of this is coming up is because T-Mobile USA has been taking flak from competitors for claiming in its most recent commercials to have the nation's largest 4G network when, you know, technically -- that is, literally -- it's not true. Now that this error has been pointed out, I'm sure T-Mobile USA is quite remorseful. In fact, one thing I've learned over the years is that advertisers always strive to be totally honest with customers, and you can bet the wireless carriers are hard at work rewriting their advertising and marketing literature to reflect their not-quite-4G network status, so as not to mislead their customers. Because theirs is a relationship built on trust, as Verizon Wireless will tell you. To help out, I've come up with a few slogan ideas for the wireless carriers to get around the sordid truth of that whole 4G thing. If any of you wireless marketing people want to talk, I'm sure we could work out an arrangement. * Not 4G, but an incredible simulation! * 4G, if you round up * Our network + a little patience = 4G * It's HSPA+tastic! * What's the big hang-up about Gs? * It's not how many Gs you have, it's how you use them * The ITU can bite us * Maybe you're not 4G, ever think of that?

Today we welcome Amanda Woods to the Guest Blog! Amanda has recently launched her gorgeous website Ojoli which is filled with delightful event and styling ideas. This week Amanda will be sharing 5 different concepts for 5 themed events – each day will be packed full of ideas you can use for your next event. Thanks Amanda! – Jenny x
Hello Design Files readers,
I'm thrilled to be a guest here this week – many thanks Lucy and Jenny for the invitation.
I'm just about to launch a little website called Ojoli. It's a site to visit for event styling concepts, decor & gifts. I designed Ojoli to offer Australian (and international) consumers a 'Brooklyn Flea market' meets 'Donna Hay Store' online experience.
Prior to marrying my farmer husband, I work in the PR & Events industry. Like many creatively minded people though, I always found that I was more interested in creating and bringing to life event concepts (rather than trying to fill up the guest list with VIP's!)
So this week I have come up with five different concepts. Starting with ideas from 'before the big day' through to the 'nesting newbies' stage of life.
Blue and White Collections Tea Party
This idea really stemmed from something that my beautiful sister (& maid-of-honour) organised for me before my own wedding. I'm a little prudish when it comes to male strippers and penis straws, so instead she organised a 'kitchen tea'. Carrying on from this idea, I thought a party that helped a bride-to-be start her own mismatched blue and white collection might be an idea. It's a fail safe traditional design combination, but the look can certainly be updated with modern pieces.
Moodboard for the Blue & White Collections Tea Party
Moodboard images clockwise from top left:
Image 1 via Yellow Clutch, image 2 Shop Mania and image 3 Studio Ditte via Decor8
The drawing is just of a garden shed – I thought it would be a quaint backdrop for this sort of occasion.
Shots of pink and cobalt blue glass can certainly help modernise this look. I love the 'Blue Prints' series that Lightly and Samantha Parsons collaborated to design. They are a beautiful modern collectable that can complement any existing collection.
– Amanda x
ps. Other than the blue glassware, all of the items featured here will available from Ojoli very soon!

Who will finally publish one of Neaud's astonishing works in English ?...

The 32 pages of "Émile" were drawn in 1999, at the time of the publication of the third volume of his 'Journal' (of which he makes a passing mention in the story). Events were drawn as they occurred and consequently there is much less detachment than in the volumes of his 'Journal' ; but the lucidity of the author remains intact and just as impressive as ever.
The purity of the art and page composition of Fabrice Neaud is totally realized in this story. The solitude in these pages is nearly total ; there is little human warmth, even in his encounters with others : a great emptiness echoes throughout. The author is doubtful of the virtues of "sublimation" that are generally attributed to works of art. He draws the trees and familiar paths of his everyday strolls ; scenery roughed up by the famous storm of 1999, which occurs in the course of the account.
Since the third volume of his 'Journal', we've become acquainted with Fabrice Neaud's talent for constructing books of an impressive structure that give meaning to the slightest moments of a life. By its concision, this account finds another astonishing path for making the voice of its author heard. So unique and moving, "Émile" is a truly beautiful achievement.
