$100 gets the experienced skills of our Corporate Guides™ who draft and file your:
- Custom Articles
- Resolutions
- Operating Agreement or Bylaws
- Membership or Stock Certificates
You get the support and knowledge of our strategic offices in each state because we:
- Operate in every state
- Work with the government each day
- Know the ins and outs of fast filings
- Process every order the same day
No packages with garbage like a name availability search we do by default. You pick:
- $50 EIN Number
- $100 Formation Filing Service
- $125 Registered Agent
- You pay the exact state filing costs
1. Corporate Guides™ will do your work
The people doing your filings have years of experience navigating the odd world of state bureaucracy. We are all paralegals, accountants, lawyers that don't want to be lawyers, and experts in this field. Northwest's corporate guides™ are what makes us unique and different. You'll experience our knowledge and insider secrets to logistically getting your filings done faster and better than anyone else.
No automated operators. No reading from a script. No upsells. Just immediate answers.
2. Your Data Stays with Us
We don't sell or share your data with third parties. Almost every other online incorporation website will sell your information as a lead to 10 to 20 other companies. They will sell it to a registered agent company, give you 6 months free, and then you get a massive bill. You'll get sold to merchant processing companies, domain registries, web hosting companies, accounting software, web design re-sellers, and all kinds of other companies that pay for leads. How do we know this? They ask us to buy our leads all the time. So while they may hook you with a "free" or cheap filing, they're making $1000+ on the back end selling your data. We do not sell your data. We never have, and never will. Our business is doing online incorporations and registered agent service, not selling leads.
3. Real Registered Agent Service
When you hire us to form your company, you're getting more than just a filing service.
We will be your registered agent, which means we'll be accepting any lawsuits, official mail, or tax notices on your business' behalf.
We take our responsibility seriously, and unlike many of our competitors, we don't farm our clients out to other registered agents.
We maintain our own offices in all 50 states, and we scan every document we receive on your behalf from those locations.
We make sure each of our clients receive premium registered agent service, which includes:
- Every document we receive for your business is scanned from the local office where we receive it. No forwarding to scan hubs.
- Access to our Corporate Guides™. You can call and talk to a real human being whenever you have a question about your business.
- An online account where you can monitor your business.
- Annual report compliance.
- Every document you'll need to file with the state, pre-populated with our information for easy filing.
4. Speed
We start on your order right away.
We don't charge you extra when you choose the state's expedited option.
We don't have different packages. It's just always fast.
5. An Actual Price
We don't mark up the state filing fees. You pay us exactly what you would pay the state.
Our service fees are itemized out and you can completely customize your order to save.
6. Additional Services
When we form your corporation or LLC, you'll also receive:
- Custom-drafted Articles
- Initial Resolutions
- Operating Agreement or Bylaws
- LLC membership certificates or corporation stock certificates
- 1 Year of Registered Agent Service (What is a Registered Agent?)
7. Online Tools
- Annual report compliance.
- Your formation documents will always be online so you can access them.
- Scans of items we receive.
- State resources.
- You can store your company information and create any kind of state filing or amendment without re-entering it.
8. Local Economy
When you hire us, we actually pay taxes locally, thus putting your money back into your local economy.
9. Long-Term Relationship
When we help you start your business, we'll be your registered agent.
We're always here, helping you stay in good standing with the state.
10. Trust
When you incorporate online with us, WE will be your registered agent. This is very rare. Many online incorporators have to hire other registered agents, and you have no clue who you will be getting. Also, many online incorporators just sell registered agent service and don't really put forth the effort that we do to do it right. Who will be your registered agent is not a big deal today, but it will be 6 months from now.
Our Incorporate Online Process:
When you sign up, we go over your order, talk with you over the phone if you'd like, and make sure we understand what you need done.
Our in-house certified paralegals will personally file your new LLC or corporation for you the same day you place an order.
Why our Online Incorporation Service is different:
We pay taxes and operate our business in every state. Shouldn't you trust an actual business that is in every state?
If you look our business up in each state, you'll see we are an actual business. Shouldn't that be important if you're going to trust someone to handle something as important as your new incorporation? Shouldn't the incorporation service you hire pay taxes in that state, know what the income tax rates are that you're going to pay, and feel the same pain that you feel when they go up?
Start Your Company Today!
Why it matters who your incorporation service is:
This is the start of a relationship. Who you choose to form your new company for you is a big decision. You're going to list a registered agent. If you do not know who this is, you'll be trusting all legal documents to come to some random company you have no understanding of. You should ask who your incorporation service is going to list as your registered agent, how they run their local registered offices, and how you will get your legal documents on an ongoing basis. It's easy to charge $49 to do your filing, provide a filed state provided form, pass you off to another registered agent for a kickback, and then sell your lead to 20 other companies. This is not our business model. We take the time to do your new LLC or new incorporation right, get you to a place where you can take your filed documents to a bank and open up a bank account, and then have an online account and a service that will help you maintain your new corporation or new LLC.

Having some of the extra knowledge that even your boss may not know will be an even bigger deal. The latest infographic from Microsoft Training has taken to looking at some of the lesser-known tricks in Excel that you can use to impress your boss.
Whilst colleagues may know a little bit about how to organise and sort their spreadsheets, not many people will know how to work with Flash Fill – the ability to take data from one column of a table to a whole new table column with a couple of clicks. Instead of having to manually repeat or copy & paste data, the power of Flash Fill will help to auto-fill words previously used in the sheet.Take a look at the infographic below if you want to go ahead and impress your colleagues and boss.

It's tough to follow the news when you're finally off the clock and have time for yourself and your family. Rewind will help you catch up with all the happenings in Utah over the weekend.
Top news •
Utah A.G. John Swallow leapt before he was pushed • When Utah Attorney General John Swallow announced his resignation on Thursday while defiantly proclaiming his innocence, he said the timing had nothing to do with a report due out that very day from a special counsel investigating alleged violations of campaign finance and conflict-of-interest laws. But, the delayed report, issued Friday, made clear that Swallow's timing — even if coincidental — was probably a smart move. Had Swallow not resigned, he now would be facing the real possibility of a judge removing him from office.

In praise of Violas
The next time you stock up on seeds or cell-packs of blooming violas, you can thank people like Jason Jandrew, a plant breeder at Goldsmith Seeds in Gilroy, California. Jandrew is the man behind the latest Penny series violas. Here he tells us why these flowers make such welcome additions to cold-weather gardens.
These cheery bloomers light up cool, gray days with their bright, happy colors. And with new shades and patterns blanketing nurseries now, Jandrew explains why there's even more about them to love.

Hi, friend!
My name is Hilah Johnson. My partner Christopher Sharpe and I began our webshow Hilah Cooking in January 2010. We create short-form, educational, and occasionally hilarious cooking videos geared towards beginner and intermediate cooks, as well as people who are just looking for simple, low-cost recipes.
Everything is made from scratch, people! You will not see any packets of taco seasoning mix or gravy powder up in here. If you are going to learn how to cook, you are going to learn it for real! But I promise it will be fun and easy.
All of the ingredients are a cinch to find and I avoid using any super-specialized gadgets in order to keep the recipes accessible to everyone. That means I grind pepper in a mortar and froth up egg whites in my mouth. Just kidding. That would be gross.
December 2012, we released our first print book: Learn To Cook Book. It covers everything you need to know about buying, preparing, storing, and cooking food so that you can live and take care of yourself like a grown-up. It's also really, really, really funny and has cartoon illustrations of dancing bananas and drunk pineapples in bikinis and stuff like that to keep you interested.
And as of right now, December 2013, my very first cookbook has just been revised, expanded and re-released! The Breakfast Taco Book, is available now in print or eBook format with more recipes, more stories, and more pretty pictures. If you love breakfast tacos, this book is a trove of information and anecdotes about tacos. If you've never had a breakfast taco, this book is going to change your life. It's full of all the recipes you need to make some kickin' tacos for breakfast. Even the tortillas and salsa.
I've been cooking since I could reach the stove — it was REALLY HOT! — and love it. I also do a bunch of other artsy crap like acting, writing, singing, and rescuing stray dogs. I love spicy food, dirty jokes, and porch-drinking.
Chris is one of those that is absolutely befuddled by cooking. It's a good thing that he knows how to hold a camera straight. Seriously. But you can check out his website for all sorts of behind-the-scenes of making a web show (he also produces YogaWithAdriene) if you'd like to know how to make one yourself!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you find our videos useful and entertaining! If you like, sign up for my top-secret newsletter to get extra recipes and early notification of special projects, book releases, and other stuff.

Phyllis and Alan Simpkins Alumni Leadership Award
About the Award
Phyllis and Alan Simpkins provided extraordinary leadership and vision for SJSU and an unparalleled level of support across campus. To honor their memory, the Alumni Association created this award to recognize a student who demonstrates strong academics, leadership, and volunteerism efforts.
"Alan and I received very good educations at San Jose State. I could try to be very philosophical about 'giving back,' but it's not that complicated — we knew there were financial needs on the campus, and we knew we wanted to help." - Phyllis Simpkins '46
Previous Recipients
Members Make a Difference!
Every time a proud Spartan joins the Alumni Association, they make a tremendous impact on the lives of current students. Members help fund our Scholarship Program, one of the largest scholarship programs offered by an alumni association in the CSU system!
Support Spartans!
Help current Spartans pursue educational dreams and career goals by making a donation to the scholarship fund.
To discuss the creation of a scholarship program tailored to your specific interests, please contact us at 408-924-6515 or email@example.com.
Gina Guglielmoni
Coming from a family of Spartans, Gina arrives at SJSU from South San Francisco with aspirations of obtaining a graduate degree in kinesiology and start a career helping athletes rehabilitate sports-related injuries with treatments their school or general practitioner do not provide. At El Camino High School, Gina gained extensive volunteer experience as a trainer's assistant and manager for the football and softball teams. She is also a long-term volunteer with groups supporting disabled veterans and at St. Veronica Parish.
"Being a third generation Spartan means a lot to me and my family as well as receiving the Alan and Phyllis Simpkins Alumni Leadership Award. Six of my family members are alumni of San Jose State and are part of the large group that make this scholarship possible. The scholarship will aid in achieving my ultimate dream of obtaining a masters degree in Kinesiology (Athletic Training) and start a career as an Athletic Trainer."

A Danish racing driver has died after a crash during the opening minutes of the Le Mans 24 Hours race.
Allan Simonsen was contesting the GTE Am category in an Aston Martin when he crashed heavily at the Tertre Rouge less than 10 minutes in, race organisers Automobile Club de l'Ouest have confirmed.
The 34-year-old was immediately seen to by the race's medical team, but died later as a result of his injuries.
A statement from the organisers read: "In a serious condition, Allan Simonsen was transferred immediately to the Circuit Medical Centre where he died soon after due to his injuries," adding that David Richards, the principal of the Aston Martin Racing team, immediately broke the news to the driver's family.
It continued: "The Automobile Club de l'Ouest wishes to express its great sadness following this incident, and extends its deepest condolences to the family and those close to Allan Simonsen.
"The Automobile Club de l'Ouest will make no further statement while the exact reasons for the accident are still being wholly determined."
An experienced Le Mans campaigner racing for the seventh time at La Sarthe, Simonsen was the Danish Formula Ford champion in 1999 and went on to race in Formula Palmer Audi and the British Formula Renault Championship before carving out a career in sports cars.
He won the 2007 Australian GT Championship and took class honours in the 2009 Asian Le Mans Series.
A second-placed finish in the GT2 class in 2010 marked Simonsen's best result at Le Mans, while in 2008 he stepped up to contest the prototype LMP2 class at the famous endurance race.

I am constantly on the lookout for new ways to incorporate bananas into various baked goods. I always have bananas on hand and it's nice to have alternatives to banana bread.

Chocolate Chip Layer Cake with Chocolate Chip Buttercream
As much as I enjoy a good layer cake, most of them don't have a lot going on texture-wise. Tender, fluffy layers of cake are sandwiched with creamy frosting. It is a wonderful contrast no matter what flavor cake you're enjoying – no doubt about that! – but sometimes it is nice to have some nuts, chocolate chips or other elements to add some texture ...

Chocolate Chip Mini Cheesecakes
The only thing better than a full sized cheesecake is a mini cheesecake. One could argue that a full sized cheesecake is better because you get so much more – but there is a lot to be said for single-serving cheesecakes that can be made easily in small batches. They're quick and convenient to bake, and they offer both portion control and portability. And on ... Read More »
Nestle Tollhouse Dark Chocolate Morsels, reviewed

How to melt chocolate

Melted chocolate might not sound like a tricky ingredient, but it actually can be and is a place where many would be brownie-bakers run into problems.

You are so resourceful - the cross is beautiful. I really enjoy my visits to your cottage.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you! Sonice to have you visit xxxDelete
I love how your cross turned out.. so very pretty! I think floral wallpaper on the wall is a great idea!! I say that because I have been thinking of doing the same thing for a few weeks now but haven't as I'm afraid I won't like it once it's up. I'm thinking of doing one wall in my dining room which is exactly opposite my kitchen. I just love the idea of something different .. especially for me as I would never have thought of using wallpaper until I saw it used in a lady's clothes shop that was given a vintage vibe.. and it looked fantastic! I think if I could find the right wallpaper that called out to me .. I would do it.. after all it's only one wall. I say go for it.. it will look awesome in your home.. take care, MaryannReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Maryann :)Delete
I am so glad you agree and vote for wallpaper! I hope you find that paper and then you can do yours too!
THAT is so pretty!!!! LOVE what you did with the cross and like you, I am happiest tinkring away on my nest! :)ReplyDelete
Thank you Katherine! Nesting is the best xxxDelete
Your cross is amazingly beautiful and I love the wallpaper. I hope you can find a deal. I've been pricing wallpaper lately and it's crazy here in Canada. JReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you so much Julie,It's twenty five pounds a roll but i will only need one for that wall,Dread to think what it would cost for a large room xxxDelete
So wonderful when I open my emails and see a post from Shingle Cottage! I get so excited to see what you've been up to lately. Your cross is so very pretty and I can just imagine the beautiful rose print wallpaper in your kitchen. You have a wonderful husband to agree to all of the pink and roses loveliness in your home! Most men would have a "hissy fit" (as we say here in the South) over such decor. Lucky you ... lucky him!ReplyDelete
Keep warm ... DianeReplies
Aaw Thank you Diane that is so lovely! Steve is great isn't he? I can have pink and rosey as i like and he loves it,I am lucky i know!He really loves the cross too,Delete

Thank you Sandy xxxDelete
I am still amazed at how you are able take a light, a shade, a table, a whatever and turn it into a beautiful piece, special, beautiful and unique. I love reading how you do your magical transformations. I think you should write a book on your dear cottage. You have a book nearly written here on the blog. You have told a wonderful story of how you and Steve have dreamed and then followed your dream, nail by nail, board by board, dream by dream. Have a great week.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you Ann :)Delete
I love sharing my makeovers so glad you enjoy them,A book would be fun to write when everything is done and there is so much more to do! I'm not complaining honest but you will see when we get started outside this year and then there's the garden and my attic workroom,Like you say nail by nail,board by board,dream by dream i love that Ann xxx
So happy to see you re-creating! Brrr! it must be chilly out but you are so cosy and warm like two little bunnies. Wallpaper is way cool, and have seen people take not so pretty wallpaper and do a whitewash over it to soften and distress if the pattern is too bold. I bought a baby grand that is in dire need of restoration, but fortunately the bones and innards are all in fine shape. So here's the deal-Annie Sloan of course but what colors. Thinking Old White, Paris Grey, and touches of gold to prettify it, any ideas?ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Mary :)Delete
Oh that is such a good idea to do to soften the wallpaper down,I think i would like it bright and perky in the kitchen,Jolly looking.
How wonderful to have a baby grand! I love your vision it sounds perfect!Paris Grey and Old White look so fabulous with gold too,It's going to look amazing! xxx
I love what you did to your cross. The flowers make it so pretty. It looks like you are having so much fun renovating your cottage. The shelf is so cute with the rose cutouts. I have a small shelf on one of my walls too, I have added hooks so I can display a small amount of vintage china. I have always wanted a floral wall but have not found the perfect wallpaper yet! Looking forward to following your journey with your cottage.ReplyDelete
Hi Rosezeeta,Delete
Thank you i love wall shelves with hooks it has a real cottage look about it doesn't it.
I wish they would bring back some of the really old beautiful floral wallpapers it is hard to find a really nice one xx
Will your "cooker" (stove, to us in the US) be an Aga? My friend in Bisley has a wonderful, huge Aga in her kitchen, and I love it! They are terribly dear in the States - nearing the $10,000 mark - and I doubt I could learn to bake in one in any case. Sally does a masterful job and it is so impressive that she can do that without a thermostat and a timer! Love hearing about Shingle Cottage...hope you get your snow!ReplyDeleteReplies
Our kitchen is way too tiny for an Aga,My God Mother has one and they are fabulous but we will be having a gas cooker which i can not wait for because were we are now is all electric.Delete
We did get the snow and it here again today xxx

text: ToDo lists match up pretty closely to what I see vs local RPC from what I've seen so far with Premiere units. For Season Passes I was able to get Auto-Record wishlists to show up as well which the online SP manager doesn't show, so better functionality possible there. I was also able to delete a season pass on my S3 which look like it worked. I scheduled a season pass and an individual show on my S3 using this interface and it was similar to doing it via tivo.com or one of the other online guides where you get the email confirmations and they worked fine. So it is pretty functional though not real time. I was even able to show Recently Deleted items for my S3 though recovering them or permanently deleting doesn't work through middlemind server. So shows some promise. I'll have to explore possibility of scheduling season passes for shows not currently in the guide to see if I can get them to work (with local RPC that is not possible), in order to get true Season Pass backups. P.S. Was also able to update Season Pass options for a SP on my S3 (changed #episodes from 5 to 10) and it worked.

Last week was our annual ministry school, which was about letting go. We had a great programme, designed by Alec Clarke and Benjamin Brock Smith. I led some Bible studies and we had input from Chris Holmes and Kevin Ward. We had speakers from the 5:30 service at St. Matts and from Urban Vision, challenging us with a couple of different ways of being church. At the end of each day Phil Clark led us in kind of examen, looking back and drawing together common threads. We acknowledged the great changes we are facing as the Anglican Church in Southland and Otago, noting the obvious statistical and demographic facts that we have lived with for years now. But it wasn't a depressing or negative time; far from it. The mood of the school was upbeat, buoyant even. We were hopeful and excited about the changes which lie on our very near horizon.
We are in a transition in our diocese, with the decay of our old processes all around us, but also with the hints of the new beginning to appear, sometimes in surprising places. We have a superb team of clergy and lay leaders and the procedural and infrastructural changes which might help them forward the mission of the church in surprising new ways are far more complete than I had expected them to be at this stage. I talked about my own role as bishop and about how far I saw that extending and what I thought was required of me over the next two or three years. I left with energy and confidence that we will handle the changes which lie ahead of us.
I went straight from the ministry school to the national interfaith conference which was held in the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints. I had never been into a Mormon church before, and I was curious. It was, on the inside, much as you might expect from looking at the outside: lots of straight lines, everything clean and neat and well made. There was a built in data projector and a nifty central pulpit with an electric height adjustment device. With a huge gymnasium and a multitude of small meeting rooms the complex was perfect for the conference, and the Mormons had, in a humbling show of generosity, let the organisers use it for free and had postponed their own Sunday morning worship to accommodate us. On Sunday I had the novelty of sitting there in a service of worship where the music was led by Colin Gibson on piano and the Hare Krishna group on guitar and drums, though not at the same time. Lord Leslie Griffiths, was the keynote speaker and there was the usual round of breakout groups and workshops. It was a good conference, but I must say that after our ministry school, anything would have seemed anticlimactic.
So today, on a calm clear, warm and sunny winter's day, it was wonderful to be back on my bike and walking the Otago coast and thinking on things past and things to come.

Rockdale Youth Soccer Association was founded in 1972, as there was no organized soccer in Rockdale County. In 1971, Bob Boggus and Larry Ginder traveled to Dekalb County for their children to play soccer. In February, 1972, a meeting was arranged with Dwight Langley, Bob Boggus, and Larry Ginder to explore the possibility of Rockdale County starting a soccer program. There was no interest at that time. Larry Ginder then placed an ad in the Rockdale Citizen to register soccer players. Forty-six children were registered and RYSA was born.

The Ministry of Education in Sweden is considering creating special classes for elite students. Those as young as eleven will take tests which would become the basis as to whether they should be places in an elite class. After all, it is LIBERALS are those who seek to equalize the lives of people by forcing students who are mentally superior to be held back from attaining their goals in life by inferior students. I am certain that a TEST will be able to measure the ability of superior students and identify those who are inferior in life. Why not take this concept one further step:
1. Classes for elite babies who are able to stand up and walk. Why should these superior students be held back by SLOW WALKERS?
2. Classes for elite students who are able to hit a ball further than other children would ensure that sissy students who are unable to be athletically gifted stay away from the athletically gifted.
3. We need a test to identify gifted students in eating. Why should a child who is able to consume five hamburgers and three orders of French Fries be held back by those who can barely finish a hamburger?
4. We need a test to identify gifted cheer leaders. After all, if a girl can jump five feet in the air should she be forced to be in a class with poor jumpers?
5. We need a means test which will identify students whose family has more money. After all, if your family has more money it means they are smarter. It is the right of rich kids to be in classes with fellow rich kids. It's in the Constitution!
America was founded by men and women who did not need THE GOVERNMENT telling them what to do, what to eat or having them held back by stupid lazy illegal immigrants and poor children. It is time to ensure that smart white Anglo Saxon children are allowed to attain their natural rights to lead this nation. First, the GOVERNMENT, made kids go to school, then the GOVERNMENT decided what was proper food for them to eat, and now the GOVERNMENT wants to allow lazy students to be in class with our gifted youth.
It is a fundamental belief of conservatives that they were destined by God Himself to rule this world.

NYC Quashes Rent Freeze Pushed by de Blasio
Despite lobbying efforts by tenant advocates and Mayor Bill de Blasio, a proposed rent freeze on rent-regulated apartments failed Monday night. By a 5-4 vote, the Rent Guidelines Board approved a one percent rent increase on one-year leases and a 2.75 percent increase on two-year leases. Board member Steven Flax, a de Blasio appointee, said he had to vote his conscience. "I have to say this moment is a nightmare," he said before apologizing for voting in favor of the rent increase. Flax said it's costly money to run a building and that landlords need help. Paula James, a tenant of a rent-stabilized apartment, was in tears. "We are feeling all the hardships," she said. "Not the landlords." Board members who supported a rent freeze said landlords have been allowed to raise rent more than they've needed to. Mayor de Blasio said a freeze would have rectified "the mistakes of the past." Marty Goodman, a retired transit worker on a fixed income, said the board missed an opportunity to make history with a first-ever rent freeze. "I'm in a rent-regulated apartment, but my rent is going up much more than my pension and social security is going up," he said. This hike is lower than previous years. Last year the board approved a four-percent hike. And tenant Vivian Burns says residents are more motivated than ever now. "This is not yet the end of our fight."

From early on in his Pennsylvania childhood, Charles Albert was an avid stone collector. He was fascinated by the minerals and fossils he would encounter while searching the lot behind his grandmother's backyard. Though he didn't know it at the time, those very stones would define his future.
As a teenager, Charles Albert was enlisted in the Army and continued his service to our country throughout the next 14 years of his life. While still in the Reserves, Charles began exploring his options in starting his own business. Shortly after graduating from the University of Scranton with a B.S. in Management and a minor in Philosophy and History, he started his company with $60 and a dream. He began selling costume jewelry and then gradually made the transition into manufacturing fine sterling silver. Within a few years of setting off on his new venture, he met his wife Beth, who would later join him in the company. Together, they would develop the company into the fashion-forward brand it has become.
Today, Charles Albert still collects rocks, like he did as a child. His collection has simply become a little bit larger. As a self-taught designer, he lets the stones take center stage with minimal silver detailing. Charles Albert has earned a reputation for designing exquisite quality art, ready to wear. Hard work, determination and a passion for his work has allowed Charles to realize his dream of creating beautiful jewelry.

Replacing interior lights in WJ
Hey, have a few questions..
I am seeking to replace my interior lights in my 2001 WJ Laredo..
I've been looking around and researching but still unsure about LED/VLEDS, and as I don't really know about electronics(escp in cars), do I need to get some other devices for the current.. and what not.. I think if I list em in a list it'll be better?
What socket types would I need if I changed from the regular bulbs? I believe they are 194's at the moment..
Do I need to modify any of the stock wiring to hook up the LED's/VLED's?
I'm just looking for a white light.
Also, is it possible to change the light's behind the "map/upper headunit[where the STEP/MENU thingy is] from green to white?
I do know where to get the LED's though! Flashtech ftw?
Re: Replacing interior lights in WJ
Oh, there's more than a few 194's in there.
906 is the footwell/under dash (can be a 194)
4410 festoon bulbs are the ones in the assist handles above the doors, and your rear cargo area.
192 is your dome/reading, and your glove box. 194's fit fine in these too.
If all you did was replace bulbs, an leave the cargo one stock, you'd be fine.
If you replace them all with LED (which is what I did) you'll need to add a resistor to one of the fixtures. I did my cargo area. Removed the fixture, cut the incoming power wire, and spliced in a resistor. Everything works perfectly.
As for changing the display color in your EVIC, good luck! That I have no idea on...
Re: Replacing interior lights in WJ
TJXJWJ what size resister did you fit??

Nevins pitched 4 2/3 innings, giving up two earned runs and striking out seven in route to her 10th win of the year. She now has 641 career strikeouts and needs only one more to pass Triner for the all-time record at USF. Stephanie Medina also had a big game with two home runs and had five RBIs, helping the Bulls (23-10, 1-0) to their 17th straight victory and first conference win of the year. The Scarlet Knights struck first on an RBI double by Alexis Durando in the top of the first. However, it didn't take long for the Bulls to respond. In the bottom half of the inning USF scored three runs after Kourtney Salvarola and Kenshyra Jackson hit their fifth and eighth home runs this season. USF continued to pile it on in the second with another four runs. Salvarola doubled to right center to score Ashli Goff and Medina followed that with a two-run home run to left field to make it 6-1. Lee Ann Spivey's RBI double accounted for the final run of the inning, it was her team-leading 11th double and 24th run batted in this season. It was much of the same in the fourth as the Bulls added four more runs to increase their lead to 11-1. Medina hit a three-run shot to right field for her second home run of the game and sixth of the season. That home run was the fourth of the game for USF and tied the record for homers in a single game for the third time this season. The Bulls also hit four in wins over UMass on March 8 and Maine on March 12. Rutgers added runs in the fourth and the fifth to cut the lead to 11-3, but were unable to get any closer as the Bulls won in five innings.

Warhammer - AoR - Interview @ Ten Ton Hammer
Titled Ten Minutes with Jeff Hickman is an interview with the Mythic Senior Producer at Ten Ton Hammer on Warhammer:
Ok, sounds a bit mean… but it's probably the truth. In the end it alls comes down to how much do I have to invest to make some nice profit. Safe to say that the returns of DAOC are not as promising as those of WAR. For that the DAOC players are most likely not that bad off. After all Mythic promised to do quite a bit for DAOC in the following year in their last press event.

TROUBLE IN THE HEIGHTS Premieres at NYC's United Palace Theater Tonight
gogoPatience c+p and Numeric Pictures have officially announced the date and location for the premiere of the much-talked-about independent feauture film Trouble In The Heights! Tonight, January 24th the United Palace (4140 Broadway at W. 175th street, New York, NY 10033) will premiere Trouble In The Heights at 7:30pm (Doors open at 7).
The dramatic thriller-driven by strong performances from a Latino cast drawn from Broadway, film and television - was directed by Jonathan Ullman and produced by Dave Steck. It takes place in Upper Manhattan, better known as The Heights, where the director currently resides. Tastemakers, cast members, celebrities and media will be expected at the screening, and an invitation-only after party, which will be held at La Marina (348 Dyckman Street, New York, NY 10034).
The setting of the film is in a neighborhood defined by its people who grow up and grow old together, where black gypsy cabs roam the land, and good or bad is often determined by what side of the street you're on. "This movie truly embodies the spirit of the DIY indie-film tradition," commented producer Dave Steck. "Jon's love for his adopted neighborhood shines through and rings true in every scene."
Trouble In The Heights is Ullman's directorial feature film debut, "Not many people get the chance to make their feature debut with actors of the caliber I had on this set. I feel very fortunate to have been surrounded by such amazing talent on both sides of the camera. I am still in awe of their gifts," states the director.
Producer Steck said, "Everyone involved in the production did a remarkable job in helping capture and present the heart and soul of this great neighborhood and I'm proud to have been a part of it."
Trouble In The Heights was originally entitled GWB and debuted at 2011's New York International Latino Film Festival. The film is being distributed by VIVA Pictures and will begin its roll out on Video on Demand, Pay Per View and outlets such as Redbox, Blockbuster iTunes and more on January 22nd.
Ullman added, "The thrill and excitement of making a movie in my own backyard can only be matched by premiering the movie in the beautifully and meticulously preserved United Palace."
The New York-based filmmaker has a number of projects in various stages of development, among them is the biopic 'Love Is The Message,' the true story of DJ and record producer Larry Levan and the legendary New York nightclub, the Paradise Garage. He is also in post-production on a documentary feature film based on a popular Washington Heights cocktail, 'Nutcracker Inc.'
Originally known as Loew's 175th Street Theatre, The United Palace, is one of the important landmarks in The Heights. The building opened in 1930 as a movie palace and vaudeville hall. It was the last of the five Wonder Theaters to be built in the Metropolitan area. In 1969, when many of the city's grand movie theaters had been demolished or turned into multiplexes, the Palace was purchased, and preserved, by Reverend Ike for his church. In recent years the United Palace has also hosted numerous world-class events making it a prestigious venue for entertainment and arts which are now being programmed by the nonprofit United Palace of Cultural Arts (UPCA). On January 24th the United Palace will be the official home for the Trouble In The Heights movie premiere! "I hope audiences will enjoy it and support the growing independent film scene, both here in the 'Heights and wherever they are," concluded Steck.
Along with all this buzz circulating around the vibrant and diverse New York neighborhood of Washington Heights, MTV will also debut a reality show based on Washington Heights airing on January 9th, 2013.

For the past decade, much of the focus in the Arctic has centered on the rate at which ice melts and its ecological impact. Now, as Arctic ice continues to melt, carbon that has been stored in the frozen tundra for thousands of years is creeping up to the surface and exposed to a new element: sunlight. In a new study, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, reveal that this newly exposed carbon could double the amount of greenhouse gases in the environment-- and profoundly change the trajectory of the climate change debate. This "baked" carbon is more palatable to bacteria than carbon that has not been exposed to sunlight, such that the bacteria convert 40 percent more of it into carbon dioxide gas.

UC Wins 51st Battle For The Keg Of Nails, 25-16
Oct. 15, 2011
Final Stats | Quotes | Notes | UC Gallery | AP Gallery
CINCINNATI – The University of Cincinnati (5-1, 1-0 BIG EAST) beat the Louisville Cardinals (2-4, 0-1 BIG EAST), 25-16, on Saturday afternoon at Paul Brown Stadium to win the Battle for the Keg of Nails for the fourth-straight year. It was a career-high day for senior defensive lineman Derek Wolfe, who had a career-best in tackles (11) and tackles for loss (2.5) in front of 40,971 fans for homecoming weekend – the third largest home crowd in UC history.
The windy field conditions provided a battle of its own for senior quarterback Zach Collaros, who went 18-of-26 for 152 yards and relied heavily on senior running back Isaiah Pead, who finished with 20 carries for 153 yards – his eighth career 100-plus rushing game. Collaros pitched in an additional 22 yards on 13 rushes.
The UC offense got off to a slow start, but the defense managed to hold the Cardinals to two field goals to make the score 6-0 after the first 15 minutes.
After a scoreless 10 minutes to start the second quarter, UC forced Louisville to a three-and-out on its own seven-yard line. The Bearcats got the ball back in UofL's territory, where it began its first productive drive of the afternoon – a four-play, 37-yard scoring drive capped with a 26-yard touchdown pass to Woods to give the Bearcats the 7-6 lead with five minutes left in the half.
The Woods' touchdown seemed to spark an offensive surge on Louisville as well, as quarterback Teddy Bridgewater launched a 58-yarder to wide receiver Eli Rogers on its ensuing possession. However, the Bearcats made a goal line stand and held the Cardinals to a 18-yard field goal to make the score 9-6 with 2:54 remaining.
With just 18 seconds remaining in the half, the Cardinals picked off a Collaros pass and ran it back 63 yards to extend their lead at halftime, 16-7.
Louisville got the ball to start the second half, but an interception by senior defensive back Dominique Battle cut the drive short. Despite the momentum swing, the Bearcats were unable to take advantage of the turnover and they were forced to punt it away.
Following a scoreless Cardinals possession, Cincinnati's offense began clicking on all cylinders as they marched 53 yards down the field to UofL's one-yard line. Faced with a fourth-and-goal situation, Collaros ran it for the touchdown to pull within two of the guests, 16-14, after three.
Cincinnati wasted no time adding points, this time in way of Pead, who ran 50 yards to the endzone to make it his sixth-straight game with a rushing touchdown. Following the 16-second drive, senior tight end Adrien Robinson caught a two-point conversion pass to make it, 22-16, with 12:13 remaining.
Freshman kicker Tony Miliano tacked on an 21-yard field goal in the final minutes to make the final score 25-16.
The Bearcats will travel to USF for a noon match-up next Saturday, Oct. 22 before returning to Paul Brown Stadium for its next home game against West Virginia on Saturday, Nov. 12

One where actual use has shown handgun ammo, even hollowpoints, performs like ball when it hits wall material (that means it keeps on going). That same world coincidentally sees personal defense ammo in .223 and 5.56 to be generally poor against barriers, as the round already has a tendency to fragment and many of those good defensive loads enhance fragmenting or spreading. That world also sees more law enforcement moving away from pistol caliber submachine guns for SWAT use towards 5.56 rifles, and it's not because of a sales pitch.
If you use M193 or M855 for personal defense, shame on you; folks who aren't limited by the Hague Convention aren't using them for a good reason. Any round good enough to stop a person carries the risk of going through most walls. The .223 and 5.56 simply carry a slightly reduced risk of doing so compared to most pistol rounds.

I was shooting with a friend who had just purchased a new (used) revolver. He was having a hard time hitting the broadside of a barn with it, and when I shot it, I also had difficulty, but was able to keep them on target. He made the comment he could shoot better blindfolded than with that revolver. So, he held it up, closed his eyes, and hit the bullseye on the first attempt.
Cool shot - but totally lucky. Even in a rest that particular revolver wouldn't provide a group anything more than the size of a dinner plate at 7 yards. It was promptly traded in for a new (used) Ruger Vaquero which he still has.

Newbie Insulation Question: Cathedral Ceiling
Hello All,
I'm having an addition put on my house and am about to insulate the cathedral ceiling. It's 2x12 rafters on 16" centers. As it's a sunroom/4 season room, the building inspector said I could go with R30, but I'd like to get R38 if possible (I live in WI). I have Durovent baffles running between each rafter from the soffit area to the cont. roof vent. My questions:
Which provides better insulation: a 12" R38 batt (compressed 1.5" around the baffle and by the fact this it's 12" thick in an 11.5" space), or an R30 batt that will fit with no compression? The guys at home depot argued with eachother about this for awhile last night and in the end 2 of them disagreed.
2nd: If I don't use faced batts, I need a vapor barrier, correct?
3rd: Do the Durovent baffles need to be spaced 1" apart? (meaning installed end to end with a 1" gap between them? I get different opinions on this one too)
4th: I've seen some of the High Density R38 insulation online...but it seems to be many times the price...is this the only safe way to get higher R values?
Thanks for the comments! Battman
Compressing fiberglass reduces R-value. Put in as much as you can without compressing it. If you want to increase the R value to the roof, apply foamboards to the joists.
Unfaced batts need a vapor barrier.

Owens Corning makes R38 cathedral insulation that fits in a 2x12 rafter bay.
If you use an r30 insulation you get about 3.5R/inch. if you compress it, you still will get about 3.5R/inch. You don't gain anything by using thicker insulation unless you have the room for it. I would use the R38C insulation, the added cost is only a 1 time expense.
exactly, 38c, I agree
I've had good success insulating cathedral ceilings by using foamboard as a baffle to get increased R value. Simply add a wood spacer in the corner where your rafters meet the roof sheathing to maintain the air space and attach the foamboard to that.The foamboard becomes your baffle.You can "kill two birds with one stone" using this method.:jester: :eek:
Maybe too late, but I would STAY AWAY from the Durovent baffles as the plague. If you put them in - especially along the entire run of the rafter, you will lock in any moisture (and there is always moisture) in the insulation since it will not be able to pass by the (styrofoam) Durovent baffles and out into the "air stream".
Hence, I would look for other baffles, baffles that actually allows mositure to pass through. Back in native Sweden, we have baffles running the entire lenght of the rafter, but these baffles are made out of perforated masonite board. Stable/steady but with a large number of small holes per square inch. And, make sure whatever baffles you use, do match the holes inthe birds blocks. The Durovent baffles are NOT designed to be used with standrad "round" birdblocks and need to be "shimmed" to proper height - unless your objective is to actually block the three holes in the BBs.
Might be a bit overboard, but a vaulted/cathedral ceiling is a construction detail you will only be able to reach once - during construction - do it right the first time. That said, as long as you can guarantee the air space on top of the baffles, it'll likely be better with short baffles to make sure you have free airflow from the (many times incorrectly positioned) holes in the bird blocks. At least that will not block humidity inside the insulation and allow it to evaporate upwards and hopefully be "whisked" away be the airflow between the deck and the top of insulation.
DO NOT trust the kraft paper on the insulation as a vapor barrier. You will need a continouos layer of a plastic film on the inside, before you put up drywall or other covering. ESPECIALLY in a cathedral ceiling in colder climates.
Why do I say all this?
Why are two peope in a early 1960s house i nthe Puget Sound Region. Rainy and mild climate but actually pretty low humidty. We are in a reasonably big house for two, do not take long showers, do not cook, and have NEVER had condensation problems before (older poorly insulated house).
We built a new addition in the fall, some 200 sff with a 16' high cathedral ceiling out bone dry building material, and raincovered before the fall rains started. Left it sitting to ventilate for a while and the in early December, I started insulation in order to turn on the heat inside (we keep it relatively cool at 60 at night and 64 daytime).
Put in Doruvent baffles and R-30 between 12" joists, spaced at 24" CC.
Mistake 1: Trusted the Durovent baffles.
Mistake 2: Trusted kraft faced paper
Mistake 3: Turned on the heat (should have had this area blockled off and worked in the cold - no humid hot air that can condensate on exposed surfaces).
The other day, when I was to start drywalling the walls, I noticed a small puddle on the floor. It had a been a very cold night (for here) with temps around 25F. Traced the source, and it turns out the ENTIRE north facing side of the roof deck is moist. The water I saw dripping down, came off the Durovent baffles since no air could pass through them, only up along them. There was water droplets that have formed on the insulation side of the Durovent baffles. One cavity between ceiling joist even have some severe traces of mold.
If it would not have been an unseasonably cold night, I would not have detected this and put up woodpaneling in the ceiling next week, hiding this "problem" for ever (until I liked would have had to remove the roof deck due to rot years down the road). Now I've taken all the batts down, removed all the baffles and is drying the deck (dry to the touch after less than one day but will leave exposed for at least another week with fans and dehumidifyer). The insulation seem to be "OK" since the only traces were water droplets on its surface (no soaking). It has been laid out aroud the house to "ventilate" and air dry.
Lessons learned - and this in a climate where the real need for a vapor barrier is "less" than in a cold are like WI:
- You can never have enough vapor barrier (Kraft faced is NOT enough)
- You can never have enough ventilation
- Do not - ever- trust the guys at HomeDepot, Lowe's, or contractors that come up with new ideas (foam insulation w/o any ventilation, Durovent baffles and other "cheap and ready made" solutions, etc).
- Traditional methods works best and allows houses to last for "eons".
- Stick to your 6th sense and do "the right thing", even if it takes time, cost money.

Project Purpose
The Oregon Food Matters Project is part of the Healthy Food Program at Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility. Through the OFM Project, health professionals are trained to be advocates of a healthy, sustainable food system within their facilities, practices, and communities.
Clinicians are recognized as trusted experts on health-related issues, not only in the clinic, but also in the community-at-large. Having a strong health professional voice present in the discourse over the consumption and production of sustainable food can help influence the development of effective food, farm, and health policy.
There are many ways health professionals can support healthy sustainable food systems:
Project Background
Food is sustenance. But what and how we eat can also contribute to disease. Poor nutrition is a risk factor for four of the six leading causes of death nationally - heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancer. Nearly 58 million Americans are overweight, and 40 million Americans are obese. The US spends $147 billion to treat obesity, $116 billion to treat diabetes, and hundreds of billions to treat cardiovascular disease and cancers. Additionally, our large-scale conventional agriculture system contributes to unhealthy environments through pesticide drift, field runoff, waste burning, and diesel exhaust from transporting food long distances. The air we breathe and thousands of miles of waterways have been significantly polluted by each of these factors. We are also beginning to see alarming statistics about the impact of food systems on climate change.

Columbia Regional Airport adds second Chicago flight
Starting in April, American Airlines will operate four flights to Dallas and Chicago
COLUMBIA, Mo. - American Airlines announced Wednesday it will add an additional flight to and from Columbia Regional Airport.
The new flight will begin April 2. It will depart Columbia daily at 6 a.m. and land at Chicago O'Hare Airport and 7:05 a.m. A flight will also depart Chicago at 6:35 p.m. and arrive in Columbia at 7:45 p.m. daily.
The airline and city say the flight was the result of customers' requests for additional nonstop flights to Chicago.
"American remains very pleased with our service at Columbia Regional Airport and the tremendous support we've received from the Mid-Missouri community," said Dale Morris, American's regional vice president of government affairs.
American has already started reservations online.
Starting in April, Columbia Regional will have two daily flights to both Dallas/Fort Worth and Chicago.
"Mid-Missouri's relationship with American Airlines is healthy, strong and growing. Mid-Missouri will soon see a total of four daily flights to Chicago O'Hare and Dallas Fort Worth, the second largest and fourth largest airports in the world," said Mayor Bob McDavid.
Just this week, American and US Airways merged to form the world's largest airline. It's not known if the merger will have any subsequent effect on operations out of Columbia Regional.

Senate Passes FY2013 CR
The Senate passed its version of the FY2013 Continuing Resolution (CR) today that will fund the government for the rest of this fiscal year.
The vote was 73-26. The bill approves the same level of funding as the House version -- $984 billion -- and keeps the sequester in place. For most agencies, the best news about Senate passage is that they are closer to knowing how much money they can spend through September 30. The existing CR expires on March 27.
The Senate bill is different from its House counterpart, however, so now must go back to the House for their agreement. House Speaker Boehner indicated earlier that he was comfortable with the changes made by the Senate at that point, so hopes are high that the House will accept it. The bill then would still need to be signed by the President.
The Senate version includes a full year appropriations bill for agencies in the Commerce-Justice-Science (CJS) bill, which includes NASA and NOAA. Although the total funding for NASA is lower in the Senate version, the agency would have greater flexibility in spending it than in the House version.

Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
So....if I want and asymetrical it looks that the sprit will be really helpful, and may be as an average sailor or may be lover than that using the sock for giving will be much safer while I am learning....also is may be better a genaker and a symetrical chute, than an asymetrical for "everything",...but if for cruising trying to be fast an asymetrical can be agoood option....thank you I am getting there.
Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
I agree with the comments by TSenator.I usually sail my boat single-handed.Recently I equipped my boat with an assymetrical chute,sock,and ATN tacker that attaches around the forestay,and tack of the chute.I can launch the sail by myself in minutes.I also have a racing symetrical chute that stays in the bag along with the pole clamped to the stanchions.I also agree with some of Jeff''s comments concerning the sailing angles to which the assymetrical chute is effective, but to me, having some use of a chute is better than having no use of a chute.
Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
Just to throw my two cents worth in, I single hand a 40 fractionally rigged sloop and find it no problem to fly a symmetrical spinnaker. I use an ATN stuffer, and with some forethought and the autopilot its not a problem.
I sail with boats flying a asymmetrical chute and jibing down wind and there seems to be little difference on otherwise evenly matched boats.
Like boats and sailing in general, it''s personal preference and everything is a compromise.
Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
I agree with tsenator that asymmetrical spinnakers are MUCH easier to use in all aspects compared to a standard spinnaker with pole, etc. I can singlehand my asymm (although I only bought the sail this year and am still learning.) I doubt there are many singlehanders out there messing with a conventional spinnaker with a pole. The modern asymm with sock, etc. is a terrific sail for shorthanded boats. You can''t say that about a regular spinnaker with pole.
Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
I respect Tsenator''s opinion on the symetrical vs assymetrical issue. I had almost this same discussion with a couple sailmakers a few weeks back and they were close to equally split, although they seemed to agree that cruising chutes made more sense for new sailors because it is harder to understand the principles of flying a symmetrical chute when you are first starting out sailing.
I think that the ease of flying an assymetric vs a conventional chute somewhat depends on the boat, the chute and what you are used to. My problem with assym chutes has to do with the sheer amount of line that you need to handle quickly on each tacks and the ease with which they get wraps. Even on boats with long bowsprits (closer to 2 meters [6''4] than .8 meters [2''-6 or so])and even with a crack crew work wraps happen and these can be all too often the kinds of wraps that one ends up sending someone aloft to clear. On crack race boats we have a foredeck person who helps haul the chute around the forestay. Even with cruising chutes I have seen some pretty impressive wraps. In some ways, cruising chutes with their smaller crews, and short poles, or no poles, are even more prone to getting wraps than racing assymetricals. To me assymtricals look easier because they seem to jibe more or less like a jib, but in reality they are harder to keep filled and easier to wrap on a jibe.
I don''t buy the complexity arguement. I think that any spinacker requires a lot of gear but with an assymetrical flown as suggested in the original question, you need a sprit and that is far more expensive and complicated to construct than a pole lift, pole and spinacker track. Rigging the tackline is more or less the same as a foreguy. Both have the same sheets, and guys except that a symmetrical would have only both sheets in use at the same time. The key to ease of jibing is marking the jibe points on the sheets so you can preset the sheet and guy at a position that is known to work all the way through the jibe. Throwing the pole is easy at that point.
My other gripe with assymetrics is the issue that they are so next to useless dead downwind and the comparatively narrow range through which they can be flown.
Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
While I wouldn''t argue with Jeff H on the history or potential speed benefits of these types of sails, I have to *strongly* disagree with his comment that asymmetrical Spinakers are not easier to "set, fly or strike" as compared to a a conventional spinaker. Well....at least for the typical sailor.
I have been on fully crewed race boats with seasoned sailors and I have found flying a conventional spinaker to be much more involved and I think most sailors would think so too! Plus the rigging is much more complicated, Afterguy, lazyguys, Spinaker pole, topping lift, downhaul, etc, etc.
I can fly my asymetrical Chute by myself. I hit the autopilot, raise the Chute in a spinaker sock (ATN brand), Raise the spinaker sock and I''m off. Lots of people do it, its really relatively easy. I am not sure there are many sailors that would say that of a flying a a conventional spinaker. I don''t doubt Jeff could do it, but if you are talking about the average sailor???
As for jibing, its even easier, just let the sheet out, Jibe, let the asym spinaker go out in front of the forestay and then sheet it on the other side. (or cheat and collapse the sail with the spinaker sock and sheet it to the other side and then open the sock up again)
Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
As the terms are usually used a genacker is usually a close reaching sail intended to be used between 60 to 90 degrees apparent. The term ''genacker'' referred to the precursers to a "code zero". These sails gained popularity in the Whitbread/Volvo 60''s. These boats use fractional non-overlapping jibs with masthead spinackers. The Code Zero (or Genacker) is a spinacker that is cut as a genoa which makes for improved light air close reaching for a fractionally rigged boat. They are heavily penalized under most handicapping measurment rules because the spinacker halyard is exiting the mast above the jib halyard. Adding a pole that would extend in front of the forestay to fly it from also adds considerably to your rating. Between the two rating penalties it would be hard to make a genacker make sense as a racing sail since it makes more sense to use an overlapping genoa and not take the penalty.
A cruising spinacker is really a pretty inefficient assymetrical spinacker intended to be used for broad reaching 90 degrees to 135 degrees true. While cruising chutes can be used wing and wing for cruising they are not terribly effective in that mode. They are most effective on heavier displacement cruiser in moderate breezes. Generally it is assumed that a cruising spinacker will not be used in either lighter or heavier conditions as they are too small and shape is wrong and fabric too heavy for light air conditions, and they are not as efficient for reaching as a genoa on a heavier boat in heavier conditions.
I don''t find either easier to set, fly, or strike than a conventional spinacker on masthead rigged boats less than 38 or so feet or fractional rigged boats under about 42 feet, where you can still end for end jibe.
Basic diffeences between a cruising chute and a Geenaker ?
I am thinking on getting one of those sails...and may be placing a sprit at the bow that will incease J by 85 cm...any sugestios ? What are the basic differences...probaly in the long run I will also get a chute ....but for now I think it will be esasier for me to set a Cruising chute or geenaker with a sock does any onne can help me ?
thank you

hard steering
Any ideas on what could be causing a hard steering problem? The car seems to turn real hard in both directions. However it does seem to ease up on and off thru a turn. Also after making the turn the wheel doesnt return to the straight position with out steering it back into position.
Have you checked the fluid level? If OK, I recommend a fluid change before considering replacement of the power steering pump.
You'll need to suck out all the fluid in the reservoir each night (turkey baster), and replace with fresh ATF, until you've run 2 qts through the system.
See this:
- Power steering fluid (1)
Thanks guys for the info. I have adequate fluid but with 158k it may be time for a fluid change. I will try to easy stuff first, hope it doesnt go to a pump issue.
If PS Reservoir level is OK, then bad steering comes from either:
1. Bad PS Pump
2. Bad Steering Rack
Or both.
Hey 90, always there with the great info. Are there any diy's on pump and rack?
Lift the front of the car and turn the wheels with your hands. If you can do that, then the steering rack is probably not the problem, which leaves you with a bad pump.
(Don't forget to unlock the steering wheel!!! :) )
At your mileage of 160K+, it is not a bad idea to start with the PS Pump first because:
1. It is easier to do. Essentially search for "Cooling Overhaul", because that will tell you how to remove the Fan Clutch, Fan Blade, belt.
Then replace the PS Pump.
Replace all the PS hoses while you are there.
Search forum for DIY.
2. PS RACK is way more labor-intensive and expensive! So leave the Steering Rack alone for now.
Plus when a Rack fails, it usually leaks out the bellows and you will know it (ATF on the garage floor).
Ok so looking at what is available in ps pumps the price ranges from $150 to almost $500. I usually buy oem or upgrade but I am thinking going middle of the road.
So? 2 posts above. Did you do this? To determine if it is the pump?
PS.... Am I right about ZF being the OEM for the pump??? :confused: I know they are the OEM for the rack.
No MatWiz Its been raining like a mo here the last two days so I havent tried your tests yet. I didnt try changing the fluid either but with these cars it seems a little too unrealistic to be just a fluid fix.
I am still trying to get the time to do some suspension work also, need at least some rear and front shock replacements.
I replaced my steering rack a couple of years ago. I got the ZF refurbished for about $700 instead of $1200 - $1400 for the BMW one (that also has the "ZF refurbished" stamp on it. Same thing.
finally got the car jacked up and was NOT able to turn the wheels by hand, I was able to using the steering wheel with the car on but it was still fairly stiff. Not sure what my next move will be.
Check for stiff/seizing ball joints before shelling out for a pump!
Actually I am not sure how you would check the ball joints etc.
When I was turning the steering wheel with the car jacked up, I noticed that the wheel would " settle "into the straight position. However a few degrees in either direction the steering became stiff again. Gotta get this figured out before December inspection.
When the steering doesn't centre itself after turning corners, it can be a symptom of ball joints having stiffened up. Are the rubber boots cracked or split?
Disconnect the tie rods and repeat the same test as you did previously. You can either disconnect them at the wheel hub, (near the #7 at the diagram), or disconnect them at the adjusting nut - just note down the number of threads at each nut so that you can put it back into the same place and avoid the need for an alignment (near the #5 on the diagram). You can even try and disconnect the tie rod from the rack completely by separating (between #5 and #4). I think the easier and least complicated will be #7.
Anyway, what you are doing and removing the wheels from the system and checking the system from your driver's steering wheel, to the steering rack. now:
1. If it is still stiff, then it means that you don't have any stuck/dried/seized joints. It is something in the steering, not the wheels.
2. If the movements now are easy, then it means that the rack and the pump are good, and your problem is with one of the wheels.
3. If it is 2. Reconnect one wheel at a time.
3.1. If you reconnected the left wheel, and it's stiff again, the problem is with the left wheel. If you reconnected the left wheel and the steering is still light, then it's the right wheel.
3.2. If you want to be anal about it, disconnect the above wheel and do the same with the right wheel. Otherwise, reconnect the right wheel and see how it adds to the feel. There IS a theoretical chance that BOTH sides joints are seized...
for my X5, it was niether the pump, rack, or fluid. my great mechanic found the problem. it was a seperate rack sensor on it. that was bad. $150 fixed it all.
Thanks again for the come backs. Matt I talked to a tech at EAC tuning and he said essentially what you are only he told me to disconnect the input shaft and check the yoke/u-joint to see if it is hanging up. He also said the ball joints are more likely to be sloppy and cause vibration going down the road. I not noticed any of that. Because I have never really messed with the this car's suspension and steering I am proceeding carefully. I had planned to change the front struts and rear shocks so I guess I will be getting my feet wet soon. I did notice a slight oil leak somewhere around the strut but until I get in there I wont be sure exactly where its coming from. Hope to get the car in the garage (was 25 degrees this morning) and start isolating where the problem is coming from. Thanks again for all your helpful posts.
Guys, any advice for Joe?
yes the the nut that connects the tie rod to the hub
Yes, hit it on the end of the nut side, to pop it out.
Well I guess I wimped out on the power steering diy. I brought the car to a local trusted shop to have the car inspected. I told the mechanic to have at it and deal with the steering issue. The good news is his take on it is that the pump is bad and it shouldnt take more that a couple hours to do. (lets see how that works out). While I am posting does anyone know how much fluid the power steering system holds?
Just a follow up on the never ending steering issue. New pump put in, old problem still exists. I guess the next step is a rack. I did find a re manufactured ZF for around $700. There were some cheaper and some twice the price.

Hi Justin,
Hopefully this isn't too early to start asking about 3.0 but I'm giving it a try on a new project I'm starting, and running into some initial issues:
In 2.x I called the main stylesheet this way, which isn't working in 3.0:
add_theme_support( 'hybrid-core-styles', array( 'style' ) );
Theme Layouts
I've added theme layout support as you've detailed here: https://github.com/justintadlock/hybrid-core/issues/103
The layout metabox appears on a page, but doesn't contain the layout options.
I'm wondering if I've called the framework incorrectly…
require_once( $cinchws_dir . 'library/hybrid.php' );

Mostly I shoot my Sigs (226 9mm, Pro Compact 9mm, 226 357) when I'm at the range these days. Group-wise, 6-8" is doable if I'm in the right mindset. We practice with clay pidgeons at 50 and 100 and mulch them down to nothing, and by comparison, the full-sized blue men are much, much easier.Quote:

I'd suggest starting out with staggered targets - 25m, 50m, 75m, 100m. Pop cans for the first two, two liter bottles for the second. Get a spotter if it helps - the range I use is in the high desert and you get convenient dust clouds on impact and can see the small crater, so correction is simple.
At the longer distances, you're trusting a little more on faith, but some of it may be the weapons in question as well. A friend of mine who had never handled the 357 Sig blasted a clay at 50m on his first shot when we were out this morning.
