New intake possibilities? Question?
Look at this photo from the Ripp supercharger photos.
My question- Does the 2012-2014 SRTjeep have the same open areason either side of the radiator? If so, are those areas obstructed by anything when the jeep is all put back together?
Would it be possible to, lets say route an intake tube through there and up in front of the radiator?
I am getting some ideas....let me know
Re: New intake possibilities? Question?
hey man, well the picture u put isnt of a wk2 srt8, its a wk2 5.7 litter
which has a total different engine setup
He knows that. What he is asking is "Does the 2012-2014 SRTjeep have the same open areas".

Re: New intake possibilities? Question?
I am a fan of the Ram Air style. Use the pressure of the moving vehicle to ram the air into the motor. It has worked for other vehicles so why would it not work here?
Now it you really want to get fancy you could fashion up a dual filter type of setup on either side.
Just doing what it is that I do. Coming up with crazy, yet potentially great ideas. I am truly a nutty professor.
If you're looking to do something like the bwoody cai, you should be gone with that routing. I've not had and issues with water and that intake. 8 have been running it for almost a year now and I've been through some big ass thunderstorms. Remember that the bottom is closed off down there.
Re: New intake possibilities? Question?
Yeah ,BWoody is a good product I am sure but I am just a nutty dude that always has ideas running through in my head. I am always trying to find something better or some new kind of idea or way to do something.
It plagues my life really. I just cannot leave stuff alone.
I would love to get the Jeep first, then try out my idea, if it does not work the way I planned I figure I will go with the Bwoody. But.....OOHH My My!! if it works the way I think it will, :thumbsup::thumbsup: it should benefit the WK2 Jeep community.
Adult ADHD is my curse!!:D

The whole article is stupid. The only examples of homeowners sticking up for themselves were SUCCESS stories! As far as his grandfather that was just a bad situation and he did not have an oppurtunity to retreat. What a waste of bandwidth!
If the Union is once severed, the line of separation will grow wider and wider, and the controversies which are now debated and settled in the halls of legislation will then be tried in fields of battle and determined by the sword.

Someone should ask Dr. William Petite, of Cheshire, Connecticut how that compliance thing worked out for his family.
He was tied up and beat half to death, and his wife and two daughters were raped, tortured, murdered then set on fire after the wife complied, and drove one of the two invaders to their bank and gave him $10,000 cash.
The good Doctor should have been armed and killed them when they broke in.
At least they both got the death penalty. But it's a poor consolation prize.

"The gun is the great equalizer... For it is the gun, that allows the meek to repel the monsters; Whom are bigger, stronger and without conscience, prey on those who without one, would surely perish."
DeKalb County Sheriff Don Lauer is a certified blithering idiot. Yep, just give the home invader what he wants: He will go away peacefully and continue his college education. Not to worry that many home invaders want female bodies too. i will forever remember what that state trooper said to my wife after she shot a home invader between the eyes with a .357 magnum: "Linda, you did a job on this ....". That scumbag and his partner were after my wife.DeKalb County Sheriff Don Lauer agreed.
I want my time back for reading that crap. Some folks would rather be victims, then take responsibility for there own defense. Im fine with that. However, when you put out an article telling people to be that way, thats irresponsible...
Don"t let stupid be your skill set....

My castle, DO NOT invade!
I recently went through this drill (partially) - for real, described here: Wow, had a very close brush with home invasion. Perp knocked on door late at night, unscrewing light bulbs by door so he'd be in darkness, then perp knocked again and I shouted out "who's there", he answered "is Mike here?". I said "no Mike", and he said "OK, sorry man". And then there was a pause. I realized later that the perps (two of them, I later found out) were likely at that moment ascertaining the odds of a successful entry. Luckily for me, the perps did not kick in my front door.
I had my daughter and grand-daughter under my custody. There was absolutely NO WAY I would have EVER left the premises. I armed myself IMMEDIATELY and did not want to give the perps even the slightest advantage. I was actually surprised at how focused I was during that moment, with the gun firmly in a two-handed stance. There was no panic. I was fully prepared to fight to the death, with no second thoughts. Surrendering myself was not an option. I would have gone down fighting, and hopefully stopped the perps before I expired. End of story.

I wonder if anyone can help me as I'm meeting a brick wall on any searches I've done so far. When my children were young, I used to cook a wonderful chocolate cake recipe called 'Rich Moist Chocolate Cake' which I got from a Magimix spiral-bound cookery book called 'Cake Making with Mary Berry'. I think the book originally came free with the Magimix and I understand it was originally published in 1981. As my children grew up and after several house moves, I stopped making cakes and the book got mislaid. And now, my children are grown up with children of their own - and they all want to make that particular chocolate cake! I've tried Amazon and it's out of print, I've tried out-of-print booksellers to no avail, I've tried contacting Magimix and they don't have a copy either. Is there anyone out reading this board, I wonder, who happens to have a copy of this particular recipe? I recall it had golden syrup as one of the ingredients and the icing was made from cocoa, milk and sieved icing sugar. I'd be delighted if anyone is able to help.Helen
Could this be it?MandsChocolate Fudge CakeIngredients:2 eggs¼ pint (150ml) sunflower oil¼ pint (150ml) milk2 tablespoons golden syrup5oz (150g) caster sugar61/2oz (190g) self-raising flour1oz (25g) cocoa1 level teaspoon baking powder1 level teaspoon bicarb.Fudge Icing:2oz margerine1oz cocoa3 tbsp milk8oz icing sugarFound online here - http://www.weirdlist.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=840&p=400...
Hi Hels,I've got a Mary Berry' cake book at home, I'll have a look over the weekend see if it differs from Mands recipe :-)Best wishesPete
Could this be it?MandsThank you so much Mands, that looks like the one! You're obviously a lot better at internet searches than me. My daughters will be delighted as they have been trying to find this recipe for a while, too. I do recall the recipe calling for milk and oil, which is a bit unusual. I think I used to put all the other ingredients into the magimix, then while they were processing, I added the milk and oil together through the funnel. For the icing, I used butter instead of margarine. I melted the butter, stirred in the cocoa, cooked it together for a minute, then away from the heat I added the 3 tbs. milk (otherwise it tended to separate). Then I sieved the icing sugar before adding it.The wonderful thing about this recipe is that it always worked out well. I think I'll have a go at making it right now!Helen
I've got a Mary Berry' cake book at home, I'll have a look over the weekend see if it differs from Mands recipe :-)Thanks Pete, I feel really irritated with myself now that I shelled out a fiver on ebay for one of Mary Berry's cake books (I think it's called 'Fast Cakes') in the hope that it might contain 'the one' and then realised I could have got it for 1p on Amazon! Never mind though, it looks like I have finally found the right recipe anyway now. I gather Mary Berry has written quite a few cake books so maybe the one you have is a different one? I'd be interested to know, either way so thanks.This seems to be a friendly board, I haven't posted here before, but will definitely be popping in again. And I'll report back on how my chocolate cake turned out!Helen
I think I will try it too, it sounds brilliant!And what a response! This is a brilliant board, when Hels can say "I had this brilliant choc cake recipe with golden syrup in it' and Mands comes in with the goods in no time at all. Wow!
I have just bought a new Magimix and was searching my old cookery books and have found the one you were after. It is called Rich Moist Chocolate Cake6 and half oz Plain Flour2 level tablespoons Cocoa1 level tsp bicarb of soda1 level tsp baking powder5 oz caster sugar2 level tablespoons golden syrup2 large eggsquart pint salad or corn oilquart pint milkFudge Icing2 oz butter4 level tablespoons cocoa3 tablespoons milk5 oz sieved icing sugarGrease and line two 8 inch sandwich tins, heat oven to 170 deg or gas 3. Using metal blade sift together flour, cocoa, bicarb and baking powder. Add sugar and syrup and then lightly beaten eggs. Put on cover without the white pusher, switch on and pour the oil and milk, mixed, down the funnel into bowl. Mix for further 5 secs after adding all liquid. Turn into the tins and bake 30-35 mins until springy. Leave to cool.For Icing melt the butter i a pan, add cocoa, stir to blend and cook 1 in. Stir in milk and icing sugar, and mixt to smooth. Leave to cool and thicken. Spread half between the two cakes and the remainder on top, decorate with grated choc or flakes. Enjoy!Sounds yummy, will give it a go myself.
Sorry to drag up an old thread again but...! My mother is convinced that there was a great recipe for banana bread/cake in this cook book and she can't find a copy anywhere. I don't suppose any kind soul with a copy might have a moment to have a look? I'm sure my mother would be eternally grateful (and me too as I'll be eating it)!Archie
Hi Archie,I'll have a look tonight and let you know ;-)
Hi AllI too have a similar recipe search from my Mum's Magimix book - which has been mislaid over the years.I have made a courgette cake a few times (using veg oil) and it was one of the best cakes that I ever made in the Magimix - can anyone please help by providing this recipe if they are lucky to have an original recipe book from the mid to late 80's?Many thanks for your time and help.Scott
My greatest regret is losing my Mary Berry recipe book for Magimix cakes during a move - but many thanks for posting the chocolate recipe, It is quite perfect!I can't bring myself to pay £40 plus for what was originally a free book although I know each recipe is excellent.I don't suppose you have the recipe for the Lemon Drizzle Cake do you, please?I have found my cake making experiences with my Magimix using other recipes just not successful.By the way - I used to convert the above into tray bakes of chocolate squares which were always successful with children - and helped to make it last longer.
I have the book here now and the only the recipe which almost fits the bill is:Crunchy Lemon Squares4 oz Soft Margarine6 oz SR Flour1 level tsp baking powder6 oz caster sugar2 large eggs4 tbsp milkfinely grated rind of 1 lemonIcingJuice of 1 lemon4 oz granulated sugar makes about 12 squaresheat oven to 350 F 180 C or gas 4Grease and line bottom of oblong tin 7 x 9 x 1 inch with greased greaseproof paper.Using Metal knife. Put all ingredients into bowl and process slowly for 10 seconds. Remove cover and scrape sides down. Replace cover and process further 5 seconds. Turn mixture into prepared tin and smooth the top. Bake in centre of oven for about 50 mins. or until cake pale golden and slightly shrunk from sides of tin and springy when pressed with finger in centre. While cake is baking stir together the lemon juice and sugar for icing. Spoon over hot cake then leave to cool. Cut into squares.
if you google Mary Berry Lemon drizzle cake, you will get plenty of hits. Have a look through to see which one looks like the recipe you remember.Repat S

- Professional
We do not mean complicated. We mean intuitive tools that deliver spot-on and reliable results no matter how difficult your task is.
- Powerful
A small but meaningful toolkit to power up your Excel. Just one tab with unique features helps prepare, analyze, save data and even automate operations easily.
- Productive
Get the job done much faster and with no frustrations. Do not waste your time on mindless tedious routines or painstaking bulky VBA coding.
- We care about your experience
We answer every question promptly. Your opinion matters! Each new version has improvements based on your feedback and real use cases.
Popup Calendar
Never again will you face a problem with date formatting when entering a date in a cell – just pick a date from the calendar! The Popup Calendar will automatically apply the correct format. The calendar displays week numbers, current date and time.
Version Control
Version Control helps save Excel spreadsheet history, comment on versions, track and compare changes, or roll back to a previous version. For effective group work on a shared document, view who modified the file and when.
SQL Queries
This easy to use add-in allows you to run SQL Queries directly against Excel tables. The intuitive queries editor highlights syntax and helps create queries even against tables from different spreadsheets: SELECT, JOIN, GROUP BY, DISTINCT, etc.
Combine Cells Data
With XLTools you will be able to merge cells without losing your data! Combine data in adjacent cells by columns, by rows or into a single cell, with any separator – and if necessary merge these cells in the same way.
Unpivot Table
Unpivot Table will transform 2D tables and complex crosstab tables with multilevel headers to a flat list quickly and accurately! This will allow further operations on your data, e.g. PivotTable generation, charting, filtering, etc.
Data Cleaning
Cleaning bulk data imported or pasted to Excel is easy now! In just one click, Data Cleaning removes extra spaces and non-printing characters, changes text case, and converts cell formats from numbers to text and vice versa.
Export to CSV
This tool will save time for those who work a lot with data export. Now converting Excel data to plain text CSV will not exhaust you – export to CSV proceeds without closing the original Excel file or changing its format.
Sheet Switcher
Do you work with large Excel workbooks and need to switch back and forth between the most recent worksheets? The Sheet Switcher by XLTools is the equivalent of Alt+Tab for Windows – it makes navigation quick and easy!
Repeat Selection
No need to hold 'Ctrl' and handpick cells to make a recurrent selection. Now shading of alternate rows, or every other column, and in a checkerboard or other pattern is done in seconds! Select the pattern once and apply it to the whole range.
Mail Merge
Send bulk email directly from Excel spreadsheets quickly and easily! XLTools helps prepare recipients lists, create email templates and send personalized messages from Gmail, Hotmail, Outlook, SendGrid, or other accounts.
Columns Match
This tool will help you when you need a general comparison of columns, instead of values cell-by-cell. Learn how much the columns are similar – get the exact match percentage of columns compared with each other or against your benchmark values.
Automate routine operations without bulky macros and create custom buttons in Excel! XLTools helps create and execute even complicated commands in a simple Excel table layout – and basic VBA knowledge will be sufficient.

Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez made a big step in his return to regular-season action. He was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, his first such activity since he suffered his sprained ankle in Week 2. According to Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald, Hernandez ran with a limp while going out on his first pass route during positional drills but as the session continued, he was able to stutter-step and plant on the foot.
Fantasy Analysis:
Hernandez is not expected to play Sunday against the Broncos, but it seems like he's on track for a Week 6 comeback. And as I've been saying all along, that's going to cut down on Welker's target count. Definitely see what you can get for Welker while his value is this high and before Hernandez plays again. He is one of my biggest sell-highs right now.

Summer '94: The Music Of 'Forrest Gump'; Bebel Gilberto Plays Live; Nas' 'Illmatic' At 20
In this episode: "Rock, Forrest, Rock!" Kristen Meinzer and Rafer Guzman from The Takeaway's Movie Date podcast look back 20 years to a huge blockbuster from 1994, Forrest Gump, and its overstuffed soundtrack of classic rock hits. They explain where the movie does justice to the music, and where the soundtrack falls into the trap of cliche.
Then: We're in the thick of summer now, which means there's no better time to find a reprieve from the heat with a cold drink and the breezy, intoxicating sounds of Bebel Gilberto. As part of the first family of Brazilian music (she's the daughter of the acclaimed and influential João Gilberto), Bebel Gilberto has taken on traditional bossa nova rhythms and infused it with her trademark alluring vocals to create a hypnotic new sound. Hear the world renowned, multi-Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter perform from her latest record, Tudo! in the Soundcheck studio.
And: You can call him an entrepreneur, a mogul and an actor. But Nasir Jones -- the hugely successful and influential rap emcee Nas -- is best known as one of the greatest musical voices to emerge from New York City. In a conversation with Soundcheck host John Schaefer, Nas reflects on his 1994 debut album Illmatic -- which now being reissued to commemorate its 20th anniversary -- and a documentary film.

Firat Arslan (32-6-2, 21 KOs) is the newest addition to Team Sauerland. The former WBA Cruiserweight Champion, who is currently ranked at number two by the WBO, will have his first fight under the banner of Sauerland Event on April 27 at the Sporthalle Hamburg against an opponent to be announced. Credit: Team Sauerland The 42-year-old Arslan has a dream - being a world champion again. In November of 2007, he beat former champion Virgil Hill for the WBA Cruiserweight Title but lost the belt in his second defense against Guillermo Jones just ten months later. "I became a world champion at the age of 37. Now it's my goal to win a world championship again," said Arslan, adding: "Team Sauerland is the perfect partner to fulfill that goal. They already have some world-class cruiserweights under contract." The last time Arslan got the chance to do so was in November 2012. Back then, he lost on points against WBO Champion Marco Huck at Gerry Weber Stadium in Halle/Westphalia. "A rematch i...

I ordered a constitution and was wondering what people are thinking so far of this new technology.
So far,I am getting nothing but a dream.

What kind of knock travel is eliminated on these new bows with this system....?
If the timing marks are on the cams, can they be rotated equally ad still be in peak performance?
I also was wondering if theregrips was made by loesh?

Olivia Dar Cotton Beaded Clutch - Orange
French jeweler Olivia Dar made her presence felt on India's fashion scene about a year ago. Her handcrafted bracelets, featuring rows of skulls or studs on a thin strap, were the antithesis of the bling normally preferred by Indian socialites.
After working on embroidery and accessories for French couture houses Christian Lacroix and Yves Saint Laurent, French designer Olivia Dar planted roots in India post a life-changing backpacking trip in the subcontinent. She lived in Dharamshala studying Tibetan culture and then Jaipur for gemmology and before settling in New Delhi to establish her a namesake label, launched in 2011, and directly inspired by Indian culture.

The LGM-8 3DL is manufactured from Kevlar 600MB. It is our our top of the range
thermo molded 3DL sail which offers a stronger more durable sail with

technology page).

Jib standard features:
LJ-4D Jib
The bi-radial LJ-4D is manufactured from Dacron 4.55 Polykote. It is our all purpose jib and built to our championship winning design.
SS-04 Asymmetric Spinnaker
The SS-04 is the famous Simkins design spinnaker. Designed for windward leeward racing, with extra projected luff which enables you to sail lower without loss of speed, ideal for championship racing. With it's full radial construction the sails cut from Dynakote 75, a silicone coated cloth, to help gybes and drops.
Spinnaker standard features:
This Tuning Guide has been prepared to help you get the best out of your North Sails. This is meant as a starting point, feel free to modify and experiment in small steps to find what suits you best. If you find a Setting or Settings that really works, please keep us informed.
The aim of the B14 settings is to keep the lower ¼ of the mast as straight as possible. To achieve this you will need to move the mast foot as far forward as is possible, and use a small chock in front of the mast at the mast gate. The size of the chock will vary and you will need to set this by looking up the mast when it is tensioned and checking it is straight.
Because the rig is very simple, there are not a lot of changes you can make while you are on the water. There are your normal sail controls, the jib tack height and the centre board.
As you start to become overpowered start to pull on the cunningham a little, as the breeze increases progressively pull on more.
The jib tack height is the only control for the sheeting angle of the sail. Lowering the tack will increase the twist of the sail. If the conditions change you can alter the tack height between races, lowering the sail if the breeze increases and raising it if the breeze drops.
As with the jib, the centre board can only really be adjusted between races. If you feel the boat 'tripping up' over the board in breezy conditions raise it up.
As a guide:
15-20kts: 150mm (6")
20kts+: 300mm (12")
Tensions are found with Loos PT1-m rig tension gauge.
The spreaders are measured from a straight line between the shrouds to the back of the mast track, without rig tension. The holes are a bit of a course adjustment so you might not be able to exactly match these figures. If in doubt go slightly further forward on the lowers and slightly further back on the uppers, if possible try to keep the 2 sets of spreaders in line or the upper set slightly aft.

Week 1:
Put Your Best Foot Forward
The best way to start any training program is to have the proper footwear. The sole of the foot is the base of your bodies strength. Take care to have the proper fitting shoes and your feet will take care of you. Do you pronate or supinate? Maybe you are neutral. Do you need the most expensive shoe on the shelf? Most likely not. Do you need to be properly sized and analyzed? Absolutely! The best thing that you can do for yourself during this week is to stop in at Second Sole and let their staff "size you up". They can make sure that you are in the proper shoes so that you can put your best foot forward.
