For many people, there's no point in bothering with dessert unless it's chocolate, so let us tempt you with this collection of our favorite chocolate dessert recipes.
Fudge Cakes with Jasmine Tea Whipped CreamThis sensual dessert offers intriguing flavor combinations and textures that range from cloudlike to crunchy with a topping of delicious roasted hazelnuts.
Triple-Chocolate CakeChocolate lovers rejoice! This rich cake features three kinds of chocolate: cocoa, bittersweet chocolate, and milk chocolate. And you get chocolate in the cake batter, the filling and the glaze.
Chocolate Chip Cream PuffsDeb likes to stir the chocolate chips into the warm dough by hand because the power of the mixer would forcefully combine the melting chips into the dough, making it brown chocolate dough instead of dough studded with chocolate chips.
Salted Chocolate TartThe addition of coarse salt to the rich chocolate tart creates the perfect salty-sweet combination that is sure to delight your taste buds.
Dark Chocolate Chunk CookiesOats create a chewy texture in these cookies, while chocolate chunks provide melt-in-your-mouth flavor in each delicious bite. Use your favorite bittersweet chocolate baking bars.
Chocolate Thumbprints with Caramel and Sea SaltFor a twist on traditional thumbprint cookies, these rich chocolate morsels are filled with ooey-gooey caramel and sprinkled with sea salt.
Black Forest Pound CakeThis decadent, chocolate-cherry dessert is an easy, one-pan twist on the traditional layered cake.
Chocolate Molten Lava CakesUse a high-quality chocolate in these lighter molten lava cakes. It will make all the difference.
Triple-Chocolate Buttermilk Pound CakeIt takes a special cake to make the cover of Southern Living. This decadently rich buttermilk pound cake is just that.
Triple-threat Chocolate CookiesPrepare to abandon all restraint when you try one of these cookies, made with melted chocolate and chocolate chips in the batter and layered with a chocolate ganache filling.
Five-Ingredient Chocolate CakesBelieve it: This gorgeous dessert uses only five ingredients--sugar, butter, eggs, cake flour, and cocoa. The chocolate sauce that tops the individual cakes is luscious, thick, and glossy, with full-on chocolate flavor.
Fudge Brownie PopsThese brownies are incredibly rich and moist, and impossibly easy to make: Just roll 'em, dip 'em, and stick 'em!
Double Chocolate Soufflés with Warm Fudge SauceThis recipe received the highest rating in the Cooking Light Test Kitchens and has the bonus of being a make-ahead recipe. You can prepare the ingredients ahead, spoon the batter into soufflé dishes, cover, and freeze until you're ready to cook them. They can go straight from the freezer to the oven.
Ultimate Chocolate Chip CookiesOnce you make this chocolate chip cookie recipe, you'll probably never use another one. It just might be the perfect chocolate chip cookie.
Chocolate Chunk Bread PuddingsOne online reviewer claims that this is now her "go-to" chocolate dessert recipe because it offers such a satisfying, decadent result for minimal effort. What else could you ask for in a dessert?
Chocolate Cookie PuddingAll you need are 6 ingredients to create this family-pleasing dessert that combines cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies and instant chocolate pudding.
Buttermilk-Mexican Chocolate Pound CakeButtermilk is the surprising secret ingredient in this tender, rich chocolate pound cake. Instead of calling for Mexican chocolate, the same flavor is created with semisweet chocolate and cinnamon.
Chocolate Fudge CheesecakeWhy settle for a plain cheesecake when you can indulge in one with a chocolate batter and a rich chocolate glaze?
Chocolate Ganache SandwichesOnly 3 ingredients are needed to reach chocolate heaven with these super-easy chocolate sandwich cookies.
Bittersweet Chocolate SoufflésIf you think making soufflés is hard, think again. These instructions will have you discovering your inner dessert chef and impressing the guests at your next dinner party.
Chocolate Cake IVThe rich and tender cake layers would probably be fine on their own, but when you add the coffee icing, the creamy mocha filling, and the chocolate curls, this chocolate cake goes beyond fabulous.
Rich Chocolate Soufflé Cakes with Crème AnglaiseUnlike traditional soufflés, these don't need to be served immediately (although they can be). In fact, we loved their fudgy, dense texture when chilled. The sweet custard sauce is also good either warm or chilled.
Chocolate-Caramel Trifle with RaspberriesLayered desserts like this trifle are really much better after they've chilled overnight, so this is a great make-ahead dessert to serve at your next dinner party.
Chocolate-Glazed BrowniesReviewers love these brownies because they're just the right combination of fudgy and cake-like, and the chocolate glaze makes them extra-special.
Salted Chocolate-Pecan ToffeeIf you've never made candy before, we suggest that you start with this easy, no-fail recipe that's guaranteed to get rave reviews. It's perfect for gift-giving, but you'll want to set aside some for yourself.
Chocolate-Zucchini CakeWe can't think of anything better to do with your bumper crop of zucchini than use it to make a rich and tender chocolate Bundt cake. The zucchini almost makes it seem healthy.
Chocolate BaklavaBaklava is a classic Mediterranean dessert that traditionally features layered phyllo dough, nuts, and syrup or honey. In this version, creamy chocolate-hazelnut spread adds rich, decadent flavor to this nutty, crowd-pleasing pastry.
Triple-Chocolate CheesecakeChocolate syrup, semisweet chocolate and chocolate graham cracker crumbs provide ultra-chocolate flavor to this creamy cheesecake. And, at only 260 calories per slice, you don't have to feel a bit of guilt.

Chunky Chocolate BrowniesUsing chocolate chunks in these brownies makes them extra fudgy and chopped nuts provide a nice crunch.

One-Bowl Chocolate Mocha Cream CakeThis easy chocolate sheet cake was a dessert category winner in the Cooking Light recipe contest and continues to be one of the most popular cake recipes on the site.
Chocolate-Cinnamon Bread PuddingOne online reviewer said it best: "Great flavor combo of chocolate and cinnamon. All of the bread soaked up the wonderful custard, so there was chocolatey goodness in every bite."
Mocha-Chocolate ShortbreadIf you're a fan of rich, buttery shortbread cookies, this chocolate version of shortbread is guaranteed to satisfy. You'll only need 6 ingredients.
Milk Chocolate Crème BrûléeA splash of nutty amaretto adds an extra layer of elegance to the milk chocolate in this decadently creamy dessert.
Triple-Chocolate CheesecakeThis dessert gets well-rounded chocolate richness from three sources: chocolate graham crackers in the crust, plus intense cocoa powder and luscious milk chocolate in the filling.
Triple Chocolate Brownie-Mousse StacksAllow plenty of time to make fillings, and immediately assemble stacks. You can chill the assembled stacks up to 24 hours ahead of time.
Mexican Chocolate Pudding CakeThis pudding cake gets its Mexican flair from the addition of cinnamon, red pepper, and chipotle chile pepper. The spice is just enough to give it a little kick!
Hazelnut-and-Chocolate Meringue CakeThis extraordinary dessert, made with crisp chocolate-hazelnut meringue and whipped cream, is actually quite simple to make.
Ganache-Stuffed Chocolate-Chip CookiesA stuffed cookie is like a sandwich cookie, only with more cream on the inside-it's fatter, fuller and (if you're the kind of person who twists apart the cookies to get to the cream) better.
Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse TartThe interplay of crunchy, fudgy, and silky-smooth textures in this ultra-rich dessert makes it our go-to choice when we're looking for something easy and splashy.
Dark Chocolate Peppermint BrowniesThese brownies prove that the classic combination of chocolate and peppermint is great year-round, not just during the holidays.
Mocha Chocolate MousseThis seriously easy and decadent mousse hides a smart a secret: reduced-sodium soy sauce. Add crunch with cookies to contrast the mousse's silky texture.
Chocolate Orange Cookie CupsThese flourless cookie bites are a delicious cross between a brownie and a soft cookie—the orange zest adds a bit of contrast.
Chocolate Walnut TartA riff on the classic pecan pie, this dessert is rich, chocolaty, and a little fancier with its freestanding fluted sides.
Dutch Oven Double Chocolate CakeUse charcoal briquets instead of wood to more precisely control the fire's heat.
Chocolate TacosCrisp chocolate shells envelop vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, and crushed peanuts for a truly unique dessert experience.
Brownie TiramisùTiramisu gets a chocolate upgrade with crumbled brownie pieces. Mascarpone gives the topping a special flavor, but an equal amount of softened cream cheese may be substituted.
Chocolate-Coconut-Macadamia PieChocolate goes tropical in this dessert featuring flakes of sweetened coconut, macadamia nuts, whipped cream topping, and chocolate shavings.
Mama's German Chocolate CakeBake a cake that would make mama proud. German chocolate cakes are known for being rich, indulgent cakes, so enjoy a slice with a glass of milk.
Silky Chocolate Mousse with Peanut Butter CrunchAny chocolate and peanut butter lover will adore this elegant dessert. Rich milk-chocolate mousse is topped with a roasted-peanut cream and addictively crunchy cornflakes mixed with peanut butter, milk chocolate and peanuts.
Double Chocolate Bread Pudding with Dulce de LecheChocolate bread pudding just got even better with the addition of decadent dulce de leche.

Despite extensive use of oral anticoagulation (OAC) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and the increased bleeding risk associated with such OAC use, no handy quantification tool for assessing this risk exists. We aimed to develop a practical risk score to estimate the 1-year risk for major bleeding (intracranial, hospitalization, hemoglobin decrease > 2 g/L, and/or transfusion) in a cohort of real-world patients with AF.
Based on 3,978 patients in the Euro Heart Survey on AF with complete follow-up, all univariate bleeding risk factors in this cohort were used in a multivariate analysis along with historical bleeding risk factors. A new bleeding risk score termed HAS-BLED (Hypertension, Abnormal renal/liver function, Stroke, Bleeding history or predisposition, Labile international normalized ratio, Elderly (> 65 years), Drugs/alcohol concomitantly) was calculated, incorporating risk factors from the derivation cohort.
Fifty-three (1.5%) major bleeds occurred during 1-year follow-up. The annual bleeding rate increased with increasing risk factors. The predictive accuracy in the overall population using significant risk factors in the derivation cohort (C statistic 0.72) was consistent when applied in several subgroups. Application of the new bleeding risk score (HAS-BLED) gave similar C statistics except where patients were receiving antiplatelet agents alone or no antithrombotic therapy, with C statistics of 0.91 and 0.85, respectively.
This simple, novel bleeding risk score (HAS-BLED) provides a practical tool to assess the individual bleeding risk of real-world patients with AF, potentially supporting clinical decision making regarding antithrombotic therapy in patients with AF.

I believe that one of the biggest mistakes in any marketing endeavor is not defining a clear goal. It's easy to get caught up in a clever idea while losing sight of what you wish to accomplish. As authors, we are all trying to market our books. The way in which you promote your work will depend greatly on what you're trying to achieve. I have read a number of blog posts by self-published authors describing ways to get one's book on retail shelves. Most of these articles, however, don't answer that fundamental question … why? Why bother trying to get your title on a retail shelf?
There's no doubt that walking into a bookstore and seeing your work on the shelves is a wonderful feeling and a worthwhile goal for any author. But that is a personal goal, not a marketing goal. If your marketing goal it is to have as many people as possible read your work, you may be better off first focusing your efforts elsewhere – not just on your local bookstore.
Self-published author and book designer Joel Friedlander echoes my sentiment about trying to get one's book on retail shelves when he writes:
"My own opinion, after watching many self-publishers try to break through into this market, is that it's rarely worth the effort unless the book has a really wide appeal and is produced from the beginning with retail sales as the ultimate goal.
Most self-publishers of nonfiction will be far better off building an online community, learning keyword research and how to market their book online, using print on demand for fulfillment."

Those who follow this site closely should have a good understanding of the relationship between the generator and the battery in the Chevy Volt. Unfortunately Edmunds did not, stating that the engine does not recharge the battery, and created a bit of an Internet frenzy over, well, nothing, they were just wrong.
The battery is recharged by the engine, but only as little as possible. The point is to avoid petroleum use.
Here's how it works.
For the first 40 miles, the fully charged battery (80% state of charge) powers the electric motor. Regenerative braking can help recharge the battery to a certain extent.
When the vehicle drives past 40 miles, the battery reaches a 30% or so state of charge. So called "the customer depletion point", preventing the battery from going below that sustains the batteries longevity. Lithium-ion cells don't survive as long when they are deep discharged, and GM has the goal of 10 years/150,000 miles.
At the customer depletion point the combustion engine fires up and operates at one of several optimized fixed RPMs. The engine turns the generator, producing electricity.
The electricity, at around 50 kw, serves primarily to propel the car. As the driver drives, there may be times when more electricity is made than the motor needs. Guess where that goes? The battery of course. GM doesn't want to waste energy or unnecessarily use petroleum. As well the regenerative brakes opportunistically may put charge back into the battery.
The generator does not fully recharge the battery. It doesn't make any sense to, for then you would be using petroleum to travel. The goal is to use the electric grid, so the car will carry on at approximately that 30% state of charge until the driver can get to an outlet and then fully recharge. Without recharging at an outlet, the car could drive indefinitely using gas and refills, but doing so would defeat the whole point of petroleum displacement. It may be useful on the occasion when a long continuous drive is necessary though.
There may be times when generated electricity so far surpasses the needs of the car (i.e. a long downhill), that the battery level might get high enough to let the ICE cut off, but this probably wont be often. If it does occur, then as the drive continues and the 30% level is reached again the ICE will turn on again continuing the cycle.

text: Oct 10, 2009 - This is the product I use every time I wash. I love the consistency of it (a cross between a lotion and a gel) that spreads nicely through my very thick hair. It helps frizz and leaves a nice shine. I actually wish it would be a little MORE crunchy than it is for more definition (I couldn't possibly put more in than I am), so it's not that crunchy if you have super-thick hair. I do think it's pretty expensive, but another good thing is that it "rejuvinates" the next day by adding a little water, so you don't have to wash every day! (which saves on the product too.)

Need some advice ...
I've been looking for a BMW now for about three months (every few weeks or so ... I'm not really in a rush).
Anyway, have test-driven a 325i (PPI was not good so I walked), a 2011 328i (fine, but didn't like price) and 2013 320i and 2013 328i (dealer was pushing lease, I balked).
Today, found a 328i with 23,200 miles on it with asking price of $23,900 (26,300 out door with tax, license, etc.). It was at a Honda dealer ... to be sold As Is.
A few questions ...
1. The Carfax had one owner who leased from BMW. Honda dealership bought it on auction, which I found odd. I asked why Honda dealer would buy a BMW at auction, they said it was to get a different mix of people onto lot so if that deal fell through, or they fell short on credit, they might buy a Honda. Plausible, but I wondered if BMW wouldn't take back the lease because they couldn't CPO it.
2. The back bumper looked fine structurally, but had some sketchy paint work, like maybe it had been hit and patched. Not sure. Not visible 10 feet away ...
3. The seat adjustment was manual, which I had never seen.
4. It didn't have info on it with regards to premium package, sport package or value package. Had iPod and MP3 connector, blue tooth, etc. They have a list of what's on it/in it, but I can't discern from that list to tell what it is.
5. Regular tires ... Not runflats, which I had never seen.
6. The MP3 worked, but the USB, while it charged my iPhone, did not play music. That might be an iPhone vs. iPod issue.
In the end, the dude game me the hard sell. He said if I agreed to pull the trigger, he'd take to his boss an offer of $22,000 out the door. I figured we would settle on $23,000.
I then said any offer would be contingent on the results of a PPI. He said if I agreed that to have them fix what was on the PPI, he was fine with that. I told him if it were taken to a BMW shop, yes. But if there was something major, I would no sooner have a BMW fixed at Honda than he would a Honda fixed by Nissan.
I walked away for a few minutes, and came back and balked at having him take the offer to his money guy. I like the car, but there were some oddities. I think it's a good price, but I feel a little naked without a CPO and ... if I'm correct ... not manufacturer powertrain warranty, correct?
I told him I'd come back next week and have a PPI done, at which point we could discuss an offer ... I think I probably lost some negotiating power there.
Should I just go CPO route for a few thousand more? Any thoughts on all of this?
In my opinion, go to a BMW dealer and buy a CPO 3 series of your choice. Almost all dealers have CPO 3's out the wazoo. BMW's are all electronic and can be very expensive to fix. Personally I would not take the chance unless I knew the car history beforehand. Carfax is good tool, but not everything gets reported. I have found BMW delears ( I have dealt with 3) on CPO cars to be very upfront and honest. They even 'Good willed' a battery in a 530 I had 4 months after the CPO expired. I would only go CPO Good luck!
1) Not unusual at all. Many dealers have used-car departments to keep traffic up.
2) Might be ok. Make sure the PPI checks for damage up underneath.
3) This indicates no Premium package. Probably wasn't leather seats - leatherette. Did the seats have a thigh extension? If so sports package.
5) Lack of RFT is one reason not to CPO (would have cost a BMW dealer $1000)
The vehicle was a 2010 ...
It said leather, and seemed like leather ... But seemed soft. I had a hunch it was maybe sport package because the driver seat seemed more bucketed than I recall ... Felt nice to sit in. ...
This gives you a lot of time to work with and lessens (not eliminates) the need for a really thorough PPI. Still need a full body cavity search for body damage / paint. I think the Honda shops are pretty quick to spray a bumper or body panel to "refresh" a used car.
The key fob can be read by the BMW dealer you plan to use for service and this should be done to see what warranty or other mechanical work has been performed on the car in the BMW network.
Google or someone will post here soon how to run the VIN to see the options included with that car.
Negotiating point with the seller, the 2010 sound system was apparently cheapened (fixed later in 2011) so listen to the sounds and be sure you will be happy with what you hear.
I wouldn't mind owning a 328i without CPO .... it's one of the most solid BMWs made lately.
"sometimes you're the windshield .... sometimes you're the bug"

Did An Algorithm Help A Woman Win The Lottery Multiple Times?
Four time lottery winner has been outed as a Standford University Statistics PhD who may have discovered the key to winning big.
The so called luckiest woman in the world may have had a trick up her sleeve. 63 year old Texas resident Joan Ginther has won the millionaire jackpot in the lottery four times over the last ten years at odds which are to be said one in eighteen septillion, making it practically an impossibility. However, she was recently outed as a math teacher and a graduate of Stanford University with a PhD in statistics. It is speculated that she may have discovered an algorithm for where the million dollar winning lottery tickets would be delivered since the method of shipping for the scratch off tickets is fixed.
Her most recent win was in 2010 when she won $10 million. Before that she won $2 million, then $3 million, and a decade ago when she began her role, $5.4 million. Two of the tickets were purchased from the same location which also points to the notion that she may have discovered how to game the system.

If I had a superpower, it would be the power to stop time. Time is just flying by and in 10 days, my last child will be 2 years old! I want to enjoy my little Omie being a baby a little longer. A few years ago, I made a conscious effort to spend more one on one time with each of my sons. They are completely different people when alone with me. Aside from the obvious, no fighting… we have good conversation and laughs. The invite for the Huggies Pool Party Playdate came at a perfect time. I was out of town a couple weeks ago for business and when I got home a couple days later, Omie was a stage five clinger. We both needed mommy & baby time!!!
The pool party playdate was in Santa Monica at the Annenberg Community Beach House, about a 40 minute drive for us without traffic. We left two hours early and got there in 36 minutes. That thing about time I was talking about earlier, it's funny sometimes. We cruised PCH and picked up some food & drinks at a grocery store so Chris & Duke could picnic on the beach for their own little daddy & son playdate. I knew the day was going to be awesome for all of us.
Our playdate started with the littles enjoying toys on the playmat and us blogger mamas ohhing and ahhing over the incredible party decor by the Hostess with the Mostess. After mingling and changing my boy in the open space thanks to the only swim pant with easy open sides, we headed to the pool for Omie's first swim lesson. The minute Omie saw the pool he wanted to jump in. Silly baby! The pool was warm even though the temps were in the 60s, we loved every minute in the water. I really loved how the swim instructor let us introduce ourselves and our little swimmers and then sang songs to get them comfy. Then it was moving arms and kicking feet. None of which seemed like work! We had the best time ever and I was so emo at the special time we got to have together.
What do you pack in your pool / beach bag? We live in California so ours is always ready to go! Get ready for this Summer with our pool / beach bag essentials:

700R4 line bias valve and pressure regulator.
Hi Guys, I've been doing a lot of research as I prepare to put my 700R4 back together. I read Tony's 700R4 pages and found some interesting points. One thing that Tony talks about is blocking the line bias valve. Apparently, the line bias valve bleeds off line pressure above 1/2 throttle. Blocking it prevents the bleed off and maintains higher line pressure which I would imagine produces faster firmer shifts. I am very interested in this since making sure that the 3-4 clutches don't slip and burn is of great importance to me. My question is, why did GM design this valve into the system to begin with? Is there any down side to disabling it?
One more question I have concerns the pressure regulator valve. My trans had the .500 boost valve already installed. It also had the regulator valve modified by grinding down the valve between line pressure and converter feed. This would create constant flow to the converter(clutch maybe) when it would have normally been closed off. What is the purpose of this? Does it increase flow through the cooler? Thanks in advance for any input.
While Im asking questions, I am also wondering about the 2nd accumulator valve. I understand that this valve has alot to do with 1-2 shift firmness. My trans has always had a bang 1-2 shift at light throttle, ever since it was built 13 years ago. I have worked around this by manually shifting from 1-2 and running the speed up a little. I am wondering what the overall effect might be of changing to a smaller valve. Mine is the largest or letter "B" valve, which is supposed to produce the firmest shift. Would going with a smaller valve cause a slow 1-2 shift at higher speed and throttle opening? If so, this may not be the way I should go since this trans is meant for performance use behind a higher HP motor. Again, any input is appreciated. BTW, I am installing the Superior 2nd servo and the extra wide 2-4 band.
The mod to the main PR valve does increase flow. GM cut notches on the PR valve in later design changes
The 1 - 2 accumulator is the bolt on housing with springs and piston inside. 3 bolts hold it on the case next to the v-body. .. That accumulator may be blocked or broken or very stiff springs inside.
The shift hole in the separator plate may be large diameter from a previous ''repair or rebuild''
Hello Crosley, Thank yopu for your response. My trans has the .500 TV boost valve in it and I was planning on reusing it. I understand about the 1-2 accumulator spring. My accumulator piston was not stuck, it seems fine. It did have a fairly stiff spring. The spring was actually like none I've seen before. It has 8 turns and it obviously doesn't compress much, which would really limit accum. piston travel. I am planning on trying the stiff brown spring instead. The orifices in the separator plate were drilled larger also. I just read about the accumulator valve size being a possible cause of bang shifting and was curious. I will definitely go with blocking the line bias valve. It makes since that my 1-2 and 2-3 shifts have always been softer above 1/2 throttle.
Now that you have clarified why the regulator valve was modified, I will reuse the modified regulator valve in my new pump.
Now that I'm thinking of it, do you have a suggestion as to what size drill is good for the 2nd clutch orifice in the separator plate? I was thinking of just dropping back to the next smaller bit from where the hole is in the old plate.
Thanks again for you expertise.
A link to the Tony Pages for those wondering.
Thank you Texas T for posting the link to Tony's 700R4 pages.

Line bias valve
I've been researching the purpose and function of the line bias valve. My parts for the buildup of my 700R4 are on the way and as I prepare to put this unit together I wanted to be sure that I have everything as close to right as possible. In my research I found an article from Bowtie Overdrives that explains in a general way how the line pressure management system works. The line bias valve's role in this system is to "tune" line pressure rise to match the engines torque increase with throttle opening. The GM engineers intended that most line rise would occur in the first 50-65% of throttle opening, as this is where engine torque increases most in stock applications.
You can understand how our modified engines might want different tuning in the line bias valve. By blocking the valve in place, we delete this bias tuning so that line pressure will rise in a more linear curve from closed throttle up to WOT. In my case, my trans had a bang 1-2 shift at light throttle, and seemed to have a soft 2-3 shift at 1/2 throttle. I am going to use a smaller accumulator valve to help the 1-2 shift and I think that blocking the line bias valve might be the right thing for me. If my full throttle shifts end up being too harsh, I can always go to a stiffer spring instead.
is the tv cable geometry correct if your running a holley or edelbrock carb u need a tv cable geomerty correcter kit that will case a hard light throttle shifts soft wot shifts
While not specific to the 700r4 here is an article about the 2004r and the principles are similar..
I wouldn't block it open as it introduces a part throttle harshness. Stiffer spring would be the direction I would go. The hydramatic engineers spent untold time designing the system, and it can deliver smooth part throttle and crisp full throttle shifts if adjusted properly for your situation.
Thanks Texas T, I ended up removing the block and going with a stiffer spring setup that still allows full travel. I also installed a lighter spring on the accumulator valve as recommended by Dana from Pro Built Automatics. I am running the stiffest brown 1-2 accumulator spring and the Superior 2nd servo and I'm hoping that it all comes together for a firm and solid 1-2 shift, 3-2 shift without the low throttle bang shift I was getting before.
I don't see where you indicate the size of the accumulator holes in the vb plate. While I'm not as familiar with the 700r4, I believe the principles in that link are the same and getting the pressure up with the tricks, using a stiff spring which you indicate you are, and using stock ish holes in the plate can produce tamer part throttle while delivering a much firmer shift at wot.
What size are your holes? Did you drill them bigger? Might need to get a new plate to start with a stockish size and sneak up on the size that works best.
Also, from my studies and advice from the knowledgeable, a spring in the servo is needed to not have a clunky 3-2 downshift. Is this what you are doing?

I'm sorry. No I didn't say what size holes I used in the separator plate. I laid the modified plate that was in the trans over the new transgo plate and matched the sizes of the new plate to the old one. The accumulator hole is stock size, the 2nd clutch holes are .125, the 3rd clutch hole is .156, the RND4-3 hole is .092, the TV hole is .092, the 3-4 clutch hole is .092. I haven't read the article you linked to yet but I am going there right now.

Mrs. Lee Chamberlain, Mother of a Titanic Victim, Receives Conflicting Reports
The whereabouts of the body of A. H. Hyter, formerly of Salt Lake, who perished in the wreck of the Titanic, has become an issue that the courts probably will be called upon to determine.
Last Thursday Mrs. Lee Chamberlain, mother of Hyter, was informed by the White Star line officials that the body of her son was at Halifax and would be given Christian burial along with other members of the crew, Hyter being one of the ship's cooks. Being aware of the promise of the company to forward all bodies of Titanic victims to any point desired by relatives, Mrs. Chamberlain wired a reply, demanding the forwarding of the body to Salt Lake and threatening a damage suit, unless her wishes were complied with. To this alternative the White Star line company replied last night that the original message was a mistake as the body of Hyter had been buried at sea from the decks of the cable ship Mackay-Bennett.
Mrs. Chamberlain does not hesitate to declare her doubts as to the truth of the company's latest statements and she has engaged the services of a local attorney to protect her interests in the matter. Suit for damages probably will be instituted in case the body is not forwarded.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal featured on the cover of Perl Cookbook, Second Edition is a bighorn sheep. Bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) are wild sheep noted, not surprisingly, for their large, curved horns. Male bighorns grow to approximately 5 feet long and 40 inches tall to the shoulder and weigh up to 350 pounds. Their horns measure up to 18 inches in circumference and 4 feet long and can weigh up to 30 pounds. Despite their bulk, bighorns are adept at negotiating mountainous terrains. With their sharp, cloven hooves they can walkon ledges as thin as two inches. They have excellent eyesight that enables them to locate footholds and to accurately judge distances between ledges. They can jump as far as 20 feet from ledge to ledge.Competition for ewes is intense and often leads to fierce battles that can continue for a full day. During the battle two rams race at each other at speeds of up to 20 miles an hour, clashing their horns together. The skull of the bighorn sheep is doublelayered to provide protection from these blows. Horn size is a significant factor in determining rank, and rams will only fight other rams with an equivalently sized horn. Mature males usually stay apart from the females and young. In these "bachelor flocks" the lower-ranking males often play the part of ewes and behave in a submissive manner toward the dominant males. The dominant male, in turn, behaves like a courting ram and mounts the lower-ranking male. This behavior is believed to enable the rams to live together without rankdisputes that might otherwise drive the lower-ranking males out of the flock.Bighorns can be found in the Rocky Mountains from Canada to Colorado and in the desert from California to west Texas and Mexico. They are threatened with extinction as a result of disease, habitat reduction, and hunting. Genevieve d'Entremont was the production editor and copyeditor for Perl Cookbook, Second Edition.

Recommend this book for solutions and ideas
By Edmonton Linux User Group
from Edmonton
I'm fresh off reviewing the 'Perl Hacks' book by chromatic, et al. And as I finish reading the 'Perl Cookbook,' my head is spinning! I counted 414 recipes in 22 chapters, and the cover indicates that this edition updates over 100 recipes, and adds 80 more over the previous edition, all in 900 pages.For me, the lines are blurring between the 'Hacks' and 'Cookbook' series. Both seem to present the same kind of specific problem solving information in a slightly different format. I can't say I prefer one over the other. Like other books in both series, I find it both easy to locate and implement a specific solution, or browse for new ideas.Just a sampling of the categories for which you will find solutions include the basics (strings, numbers, arrays, and hashes), regex, modules, IPC, database, security, LWP, web, and much more.I will soon be making some major improvements to one of my Perl projects, and this book will be kept handy to the keyboard. I highly recommend this book both for solutions and ideas.ELUG Review (http://elug.ca/reviews/perl_cookbook.shtml)

PERL Cookbook 2nd Edition O'reillyBy: Tom Christiansen & Nathan TorkingtonWell I have the complete PERL library. From the PERL Black book to the PERL bookshelf and all between. When I first ordered the PERL Cookbook I was looking for a god resource for quick scripts to help me in My OpenMosix development. I received the book at our April Meeting and was immediately surprised by it's heft at 927 pages it is well packed with technical information on a wide range of subjects and code snippets to get you on you way.I was let down by the complex nature of the language...While well done for a PERL or Programming Guru it was not easy comprehend able by the average user that I felt would be looking to purchase this book. The code snippets are a God send thou and more than make up for the overly technical writing.I personally used the network and file scripts and was able to put them to work immediately. I would not recommend this book to Novices, But all others would surely gain a valuable edge by having this in there library.Brett hoffPensacola Linux User Group.

Perl Cookbook, 2nd Edition Review
By Joshua Wait
I love Perl. I am almost obsessed with it. I have even left love messages for my wife in the mirror written in the best Perl I can manage. That's not to say that I am a Perl expert--not by any means. I think I shall forever remain a student as there is always more to learn. I am always searching for the latest Perl tidbit and I usually turn first to an O'Reilly book. One of the latest publications to come from O'Reilly on the subject of Perl is the second edition of the Perl Cookbook. Five years have passed since the last edition was published and a lot has changed in that short time span.For those of you looking to improve your physique without leaving your desk, you'll find hefting this latest edition better suited to the task. It's about 200 pages thicker and about 543 pounds heavier. Okay, so the weight is an exaggeration. There are 80 new recipes (and two new chapters) covering technologies such as Unicode, XML and mod_perl. Even if you own a copy of the first edition, you will find the new recipes and the updated recipes of great value.For those of you unfamiliar The Perl Cookbook, you will discover a rich treasure trove of excellent solutions to vexing problems. While the Perl Cookbook won't teach you the basics of Perl, beginners can benefit from not having to reinvent the wheel for addressing common tasks such as sorting, traversing, printing or deleting hashes. Advanced Perl Mongers may find the updated discussion on process management, object orientation and module creation enlightening.

Dunno if this hread is still active or noit, but from what I've heard the .32 is a great round for a coat gun. I think it's kinda an older round and was more popular in thefirst half of the twentieth century. Story from my grandfather is that his father (my great grandfather) carried a small Beretta .32 in his trench coat during the depression. Back then people would beat you down for a few pennies or so I was told so it was really a matter of personel protection to be carrying. My grandfather actually had that Beretta until he sold it about ten years ago, I sure do wish he kept it though.
.380 is basically a shortened 9mm, correct me if I'm wrong. I'd rather carry a .32 because in my opinion that's an ideal pocket gun round. I see the argument of stopping power, or lack thereof, in choosing a caliber, but any bullet's going to do damage, even a .22 could easily kill someone. Overall I think the .32would be the perfect blend of what you're looking for.
I've been debating on this issue myself. For me at least I'm looking more towards the 380.
Ha Ha...
Now I carry a 380 almost every day... Kel-Tec P-3AT... Things change...
I prefer my XD45C, but it's a little thick for pocket carry...
Seen a 327 first time0 at a gun show last week. Not sure what to think about them.
I have a Bersa 380 that I keep in my pocket or in my truck as a backup. I would much rather have that than a 32. I had had an old smith chambered in 32 and stopped using it simply because the 380 was much better. It's basically a 9x17 and in a light gun it's recoil isn't much to deal with if one is used to the 45 that is always in an IWB attached to me. The 380 is usually between the console and my seat and easier to get to when in the drivers seat and would easily deal with the short range to the other side of the truck.
It was a simple matter of taking both the 380 and the 32 out and shooting them at equal distances that showed me what was best.
Again, I could be wrong, that's just info I've picked up on over the years, not sure if it's true, feel free to correct me on it.
I voted for the 32 because I carry a Kel Tec P32. But I think you would be better served with a 380.
I carry a P32, for one its a proven gun with better revision history, two its cheap, three i can put 3 rounds within a 1 in grouping at 15ft.
Ofcourse in the world of SD you have the argument of able to kill and able to stop..Logic tells you that the bigger the wound cavity and it's ability to reach vital things versus smaller wounds or less penatration, the bigger deeper is gonna win out in stopping the BG...Then you have the pyschological affect of being shot...You could hit someone with a 22 in the gut or chest and they think "holy smokes, I have been shot. This person has a gun and is gonna kill me" and the person could fall down to the ground or runaway in fear of dying...and you could hit someone COM with .45 acp and they may not immediately stop.....But the odds are with physically being able to stop, bigger deeper wins out..
If ballistics show that a bullet is not going to be able to reach critical organs from a given round, then you have to hope that the psychological part does stop the BG...In the end actually carrying what you have and being able to shoot what you hit where you need to hit is more critical than realizing that your .44 mag is at home in your dresser drawer..
Given the choice here, I would probably opt for the .380 over the .32
USAFgsm - 32 was the perfect pocket gun "back in the day"
not now
I still have the 1981(?) article on seecamp trying to do a .380 based on their successful 32 - that was 27 years ago! now with modern computer technology kel-tec and now ruger have good .380's
look at the size of the pocket beretta 22, keltec 32 and 380
they are not that much different in size or weight
so if they are almost the same size and weight then go with the 380.
If you have over $1100 then a Rohrbaugh in 9mm is about the size of a 380!!
now where did the 380 come from? As I understand it (correct me if i am wrong) - in Europe citizens used to not be able to own a military caliber for personnal use - thus the "9mm Kurtz" came into being and then sometime along the way became the .380ACP
Last spring, I purchased a FEG AP-FN in 32 acp, (looks like a "PP"). A couple of months ago I purchased an old Beretta 84 in .380 acp.
The FEG is for sale..... Guess which way I voted.
.380 was my choice, but only as a BUG. I wouldn't mind having the Sig P238 or Ruger LCP as a BUG, but not as primary carry. I will stay with .40 cal as primary.
Hi I'm new here, but with the small 9mms that are out now and 380s even small why in the world would you possably trust your life to a 32, my own paper test's at home found the 32 is not even in the running for a serious concealed carry gun, ( I side stack newspaper or magazines and shoot them, a 25 go's in about 2.5 in, a 22 3.5, a 32 about between the two, a 380 6 to 8 inches, a 9mm, 10 to 12 inches 38 special just a bit further than the 9mm, a 357 mag 12 to 15 inches, 40, about the same as the 357, 454 Casull went thru 24inches of paper and thru one side of a block wall, all these test's were backyard stuff and the paper was dry, but I am saying this cause while the little guns are small and conveniant, you better be a dam good shot to stop somebody with one and when there needed most thats not a easy thing to do
Another vote for going 9mm at the very minimum.
I just purchased a used smith&wesson 432 PD airweight .32 magnum revolver. I don't know if this thread specified .32 acp or not. The .32 magnum is more powerful than .380 by a small margin from what I've read. I trust it as a defense round. It's a good pocket gun. I usually carry an lcp though. I like whatever caliber happens to be in my pocket. The new sig 238 .380 really has my attention. I might get one.
This is very very simple...
The best pocket gun = THE ONE YOU FEEL GOOD ABOUT SHOOTING.
My CCW instructor and competition shooter has carried since it was legal in our state. He was the first person in my county to have a ccw. He has over 30 handguns that he purchased for ccw. He only uses one. He carries a .357 revovler on his ankle, and carries .38's in it. Why you ask? Because if its not comfortable, you will eventually get tired of wearing it, and at that point it doesn't matter what kind it is.
His revolver weighs 12 ounces empty and you can barely feel its weight on the ankle. The point is that if you are not comfortable with what you have, it doesn't matter which caliber is better. Both are legitimate rounds that many people carry. My wife doesn't particularly care for the .380 so we will probably be looking at the 32 for her.
I have a Ruger 327 sp101 with a Simply Rugged Holster and harness system that I will put up against any 380 cal. The 327 is one awsom cal even loading it with 32 H&R mag shell I would still not be under gunned.
I would take a 9mm over 380 any day or even a E. German- Makarov I would still take over the 380. 380 cost toooo much ammo wise for one thing. Any cal will kill it all goes back to shot placement.

Chairman John D. (Jay) Rockefeller IV today issued the following statement after Senator Frank Lautenberg announced that he would retire at the end of this Congress.
"Frank is a titan in the Senate. He knows the ins and outs of Congress, and understands how to get things done -- often through sheer perseverance and determination, but almost always with a smile.
"Frank built his career from the bottom up and has served this country in many different ways. He fought to defend our nation during World War II, he created a successful business and became its CEO, and he has served in the Senate for almost three decades. This chamber and the state of New Jersey were lucky to have him return after his initial retirement announcement. He is a true advocate for the needs of New Jerseyans.
"I've also had the opportunity to get to know Frank from our work together on the Commerce Committee. He has a unique and expert knowledge of surface transportation issues and how they impact states and communities. The Committee is fortunate to have him lead the Subcommittee that deals with these issues.
"It has been an honor to work with Frank since I joined the Senate, and I sincerely look forward to working with him over the next two years."

I need some knowledge of 277 volt wiring for emergency lights and flourescent light fixtures. Does 277 volt mean they are 3 phase systems? Can anyone give me a simple explanation and wiring diagram of how such fixtures would be wired to their power source

The Los Angeles Lakers were falling and falling after Wednesday night's loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.
Literally everybody was calling for Mike D'Antoni to be fired. Not Mitch Kupchak and Jim Buss, though.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the two Lakers decision makers met with their coach and showed him their support:
Thursday was a day off for the Lakers, a time to recover from an 0-3 trip after returning to Los Angeles early in the morning from Memphis.
But it was a very busy day for Mike D'Antoni.
The Lakers' coach was given a vote of confidence during a face-to-face meeting with Lakers General Manager Mitch Kupchak and Executive Vice President Jim Buss, The Times has learned.
Despite a shaky start with the Lakers, D'Antoni was told to do whatever he wanted with the lineup. Buss and Kupchak support him.
He was told to do whatever was best for the offense. Buss and Kupchak support him.
D'Antoni followed up the meeting with a similar strategy in regards to his rotations, but the team responded differently tonight, beating the Utah Jazz 102-84. Kobe Bryant led the way with 14 assists and Dwight Howard looked dominant on defense.
So, Buss and Kupchak support him. And, if the team can keep winning like they did tonight, so will everybody else.

|Samsung Q1 7" Mobile PC - NP-Q1U/000 with Webcam
Shed your arsenal of gadgets while on the go--your notebook PC, PDA, and MP3/PMP player--and replace them all with the incredibly small yet amazingly powerful Samsung Q1 Ultra XP Mobile PC (model NP-Q1U/000). This next-generation UMPC improves on its predecessor with a QWERTY keyboard on the front (split in half on either side of the 7-inch touchscreen), fingerprint reader for added security, a slimmed down weight, increased battery life of up to 4.5 hours, and Intel's new ultra-low voltage mobile processor that's designed specifically for UMPCs. And in addition to wireless access via Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) and Bluetooth (through a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone), this Q1 Ultra can access HSDPA cellular broadband networks with a separately available modem for ubiquitous, on-the-go 3G wireless connectivity (requires separate activation with cellular provider).
Weighing just 1.52 pounds and measuring less than 1 inch thick, the sleek, elegant Q1 Ultra CMXP has a pearl black casing and can be carried in a small briefcase, daypack or handbag. Yet it offers a full range of computing power normally associated with a laptop computer thanks to its Windows XP Tablet operating system. Other features include a 60 GB hard disk drive, 1 GB of RAM (400 MHz), the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator video card offers up to 128 MB of shared video memory allocated from the system, 10/100 Ethernet networking, two USB ports, VGA port for connecting to a monitor, and a memory card slot that's compatible with SD/MMC media. Take advantage of enhanced power-management features to use the Q1 away from your desk for longer periods of time with up to 4.5 hours of battery life using the included 4-cell standard battery--or an astonishing 11 hours with the optional 8-cell power bank.
The 800 MHz Intel Ultra Mobile processor A110 is based on the Intel Pentium M processor, and it delivers an innovative collection of energy-efficient silicon building blocks and technologies designed to enable the productivity, security and manageability capabilities you expect from a PC. It also offers a 512 KB L2 cache and 400 MHz front-side bus (FSB). (An L2, or secondary, cache temporarily stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries data between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.) And the Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition operating system adds the freedom and simplicity of putting stylus to touchscreen to the foundation of Windows XP Professional and its advanced security tools.
New Design for Easier Productivity
Facilitating seamless communications across a range of environments, the Q1 Ultra features a 300 pixel webcam, along with a high-performance dual-array microphone, enabling face-to-face video chatting/video conferencing. Additionally, a high-resolution 1.3-megapixel camera supports video recording and still pictures, allowing you to simply snap and send videos/photographs with a single device. This Q1 Ultra also features an integrated fingerprint reader enabling enhanced security and fast application/website log-in.
With the integrated Bluetooth technology, you can connect wirelessly to peripherals such as your cell phone and make cable clutter a thing of the past. Bluetooth 2.0+EDR is up to three times faster than its predecessors, offering a maximum data rate of 3Mbps, and is also backwards-compatible with Bluetooth 1.x devices. It also offers 54g Wi-Fi connectivity (802.11b/g) for downloading email and surfing the Web in both corporate and coffeehouse environments.

HELP! Screwed up sealing bathroom floor
Tiled bathroom floor. Looks great. Used a light grout, the color was called Canvas. It was supposed to be a medium beige, but actually turned out quite light. But we like it.
It's been a week since grouted, and was putting sealer on today by brushing the grout lines with an artist brush. Had to leave, so I left the cup of sealer sitting on the floor and came back two hours later to resume. Sealer had eaten through plastic cup and seeped into several long grout lines. There was about 3/4 of a cup of sealer in the cup, so that's a lot that seeped in. The places where it seeped are very dark. REAL dark. Everywhere else that I just brushed sealer on looks just like the grout did before sealing. Light. I was hoping as it dried it would get lighter, but it's been about 6 hours and no change. I have the dehumidifier going in there. I tried blowing with a hairdryer.
The sealer says it is "a penetrating siloxane water repellent. For brick, ceramic tile, clay tile, concrete and grout lines. Intererior and exterior use. A transparent film to seal out water, stain and dirt." I don't know if we're allowed to say product names on here, so I've given the description.
Is there any chance this will lighten up? Or if it was going to, would it have done so by now?
If it doesn't lighten, what should I do? Scrape the grout out in the dark spots and redo? There's about 8 linear feet of grout lines that are dark.
And how do you get grout out?
3/4 cup of sealer is a lot of sealer. Since that is a hefty amount, if it dries, it will take some time to happen. The sealer probably has penetrated into the thinset mortar under the tiles. I assume the tiles were set with thinset. If they were set with a mastic or premixed thinset then it probably take longer to dryout. After 24 HRs, if not dry then call the manufacturer and ask the tech. reps. for advice. It is their formula and they are the only ones that know how it will behave.
how to get out grout
Thanks Jim. There is cement backerboard thinsetted onto wood floor. Then the tiles were put down with thinset. It's now been almost 9 hours and no change in color. Had dehumidifier on for several hours, had fan on it.
I'm hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst. How hard is it to scrape the grout out? These are 18" tiles with 1/4" spacing. Is there a special tool to scrape it out with? And how deep do you have to scrape out? We still have some grout left in the bag, so we could mix up some new and put it in. I'm just wondering how hard this job would be.
Home Depot or Lowes sell what is called a grout saw. Should cost about 7 to 9 dollars. Remove the grout down at least 2/3 of the depth. Vac well. Damp sponge the old grout and apply the new grout. Clean with as little water as possible. Let cure and check color.
and supervise your sealer this time

text: YMMV, but as someone who has had an expanded TiVo through multiple generations over the past 13 years, and who has seen the company be really respectful to a hacker community over those years, the reward was worth the risk to me as well. There's no way in heck I would try to remove/replace three months of recordings via PyTiVo/Kmttg. Too much hassle/time. I saved $30, have a 1TB to use elsewhere if I want, and I cross my fingers there's not an issue. If in any way you are squeamish about upgrading a Plus immediately, vs after the warranty period, I would recommend just spending the extra $30 and get the Pro.

Traffic around Westminster will be severely disrupted this summer as The Mall is closed for three months despite concerns being raised by the Prime Minister and the Mayor.
Transport chiefs say security and construction issues have left them with no alternative but to shut The Mall as a through route from the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations in early June until after the Paralympics end in September.
Motorists and pedestrians will be shut out of a 32-acre site, including the eastern half of St James's Park as it is prepared for the marathon, cycling and walking events and construction of a 16,000-capacity beach volleyball arena in Horse Guards Parade.
Under intense pressure from City Hall and Downing Street, Games chiefs will keep one road north of The Mall open in June.
Motorists will be able to drive southbound down Marlborough Road, past Clarence House, and turn right into The Mall although this route will shut during the Games.
Peter Hendy, head of Transport for London, which controls roads around the site, said: "We have reluctantly concluded that it won't be possible to get traffic down The Mall whilst they are building and the (Games) are in operation as it is a secure zone."
A major stumbling block to keeping The Mall open was the hundreds of lorries driving through Admiralty Arch for the "massive" job of delivering 20,000 tonnes of sand for the beach volleyball arena.
Mr Hendy also revealed extraordinary diversions for pedestrians because of the partial closure of St James's Park.
Hundreds of thousands of Olympic fans and tourists will be sent towards Buckingham Palace then routed north towards Green Park as all other normal exits will be shut.
Boris Johnson said: "We've shaved 10 days off the closure. We're building a colossal venue. I'm going to work to provide further mitigation but everybody has been knocking their brains out on this for a long time."Reuse content

Bank of Canada opts for mild rate cut despite Fed
By Louise Egan
OTTAWA (Reuters) - The Bank of Canada held back in the face of an aggressive interest rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve on Tuesday, shaving just a quarter-point off its own key rate, but it signaled more cuts to come as U.S. recession worries spiral.
In a regularly scheduled announcement, the central bank lowered its overnight lending rate to 4 percent from 4.25 percent. It was the bank's second straight quarter-point cut as it seeks to protect the Canadian economy from the severe slowdown or even recession that faces Canada's top trading partner.
The move came shortly after the Fed slashed its federal funds rate by 75 basis points to 3.5 percent. It disappointed a growing number of market players who are calling for a bolder rate cut by Canada to match the Fed.
"The Bank of Canada is clearly stubborn, not wanting to cut by more than 25 basis points and I think the market is quite disappointed," said Eric Lascelles, chief economics and rates strategist at TD Securities.
Ted Carmichael, chief economist at JP Morgan Canada, said the bank "did what was expected a week ago and hasn't reacted whatsoever to developments in financial markets in the past week."
The Bank of Canada, which prepared its rate announcement on Monday, opted not to alter its decision at the last minute in reaction to the Fed move.
While warning that Canada's exports will be hit by the U.S. slowdown, the bank emphasized that high commodity prices will continue to help keep Canada's economy buoyant.
"Despite tighter credit conditions, domestic demand is projected to remain strong," the bank said in its statement. Continued...

There are many things going on in our country right now that could lead to soaring food prices and food shortages within the next few years. In fact, food can become more important than gold or silver… and is great for bartering!
While we can be hopeful for the best, we need to be prudent and start preparing ourselves for the worst.
Here at SurvivalFoodReserves.com, we are focused on the task of "saving families one meal at a time."
Do Anything, Go Anywhere Food
Tens of thousands of families all over America have been enjoying these amazing, delicious and convenient meals.
Order your emergency storable food supply today
Most of the food you find on the grocery store shelves are filled with GMO (genetically modified organisms) and a host of other chemicals. There is very little real nutrition left in the food. That is a big reason for the epidemic of obesity around the world. Our bodies crave nutrition and since there is little in our food, we eat more and more trying to fill that need.
Not All Emergency Food Providers are the Same. COMPARE HERE!
Are You Prepared to Feed Your Family in a Disaster?
Our economy is in the tank, our power grid is at risk of being hacked, and our nation's food chain is being stretched to capacity. Failure of any one of these items can instantly send us spiraling back into the dark ages.
Around the world, and especially in the Middle East, we are seeing unrest fueled by high food costs, food shortages, and the lack of freedom for people to choose a better life for themselves. We are also seeing that unrest spread throughout Europe. If left unchecked, it will begin to also spread across America in the coming months.
I'm not convinced that Donald Trump will be of much help if things continue to spin out of control.
People need to wake up and not be deceived about what is really going on in our country and around the world with our food supply.
Having nutritious, long-lasting food reserves provides YOU a SAFETY NET.
Our lives are dependent upon having quality food to eat.
People are accumulating food supplies and food reserves for allot of different reasons:
- Unemployment
- Unforeseen Hardships
- Poor Economic Times
- Shift in Politics
- Natural Disasters
- Lack of Independence
- Debt
Are you confident in your ability to survive for a week…, a month…, or even longer in a world free of any modern convenience?
Who knows what might happen, but given the current economic situation, inflation will continue to raise the cost of food and food shortages are a real possibility!
The fact that we are now monetizing our debt should bring grave concern to all of us. What that means is, the Federal Reserve is printing money out of thin air to pay off our debt. This could and should cause hyperinflation and we could start seeing grocery cost start going through the roof!

"I was very impressed with Dr Judy and her staff.The first time i walked into the office I met Dr. Judy and she talked about 10 min with me.It made me return to the dentist after a long absence. Its taken me years to find a Dentist office i could feel comfortable with.To bad I didn't find this office sooner." -- M. Bruchey
"Everyone was very personable and professional. Any explanations given were easily understood by patient. It was not a 'rush, rush' experience. Patient given special consideration and understanding." -- D. Zaczek
"Thank you so much for getting me in so quickly. Please thank Dr. Judy for me, too. She is the best dentist I have ever had. I really mean this. I am especially glad I took her advice to have the teeth fixed instead of pulled. I have never been so relaxed in a dentist office. I know part of it was the gas, but I wasnt even nervous when I walked into your office. I guess it helps when you know and trust the people. Anyway, I cant thank you enough." -- S. Welsh
"Dr. Yu, I wanted to take a moment and write to you to thank you for the difference that you and your practice have made in my life.

Recently, my son had 2 veneers put on, Dr. Yu has done an excellent job from the start to finish. It's looks so perfect and now my son can enjoy his smile for the rest of his life. I would definitely recommend Cosmetic Dental FX to all my friends and family." -- J. Gaviola
"I just wanted to extend my gratitude to Dr. Yu and her exceptional staff. After many years of avoiding the dentist (due to my extreme fear), I have finally found my way back to regular visits. I made the initial contact because of Dr. Yu's dedication to running a green practice, and I'm so happy I did. The office design creates an atmposphere of calm, and the staff has been wonderfully understanding of my phobia. I've had several procedures done now, and felt virtually no pain. This is thanks to the skilled hand and gentle nature of Dr. Yu (and Danielle too). I also really appreciate the nitrous oxide option, which does a wonderful job of reducing any lingering anxiety. Thank you so much!" -- S. Bishop

I have always taken centrum as my multi vit supplement, have noticed that as opposed to £3.50/4 for 30 "normal ones" , the select 50 range that is aimed at people over 50 is £2.30/2.50- is this to encourage elderly people to take who wouldn't normally spend that much on vits?
The ingredients are the same and the main vits dosages/mg are the same too..
Why is it "Select 50" is significantly cheaper than their "normal" vits.??

Young Christians 'invade' York
Young people from across York worked together over Easter to bring good news to their city streets as part of a city-wide youth mission.
Around 30 churches joined together to pray for and support Hope Invasion, which took place over three weeks.
Youth workers, drama groups and live bands visited 10 secondary schools for the last two weeks of the school term to lead religious studies lessons for school years 7-9, perform dramas and put on live concerts at lunchtimes.
More than 70 enthusiastic teenagers from the churches dedicated the first two days of their Easter holidays to go into the city centre, give out freebies, do creative evangelism, chat to other young people and invite them to a free concert.
Several hundred young people attended the concert on 4 April, which took place in a central park, with free activities including a football cage, face painting, gladiator jousting, nail art and a bungee run. The evening gig featured a number of bands including LZ7 and Twelve24 from the Message Trust and a local band called This Resistance.
Lending his support to Hope Invasion, the Archbishop of York Dr John Sentamu sent a video message to the young people. In it, he said: "There is hope, and whatever your past, together with God, suddenly everything is possible. I pray that you'll know that God is close at hand, closer than your own breath, and he will give you the courage to have dreams that will transform not only your lives, but the lives of all those you meet, for the better."
Caleb Ellwood, Hope Invasion co-ordinator and youth worker at Alliance member Gateway Church, said: "We believe we could see a generation living for Jesus in this city. The young people we met were interested in finding out more about this hope we have for the future and we were so excited to be able to give them an opportunity to explore it further. I was so thrilled to see Christian youth taking risks to reach their friends for Jesus and even more excited when young people made a response to become a follower of Jesus."
Youth leaders from churches of different denominations meet to pray together regularly, sharing a desire to see the young people of the city encounter Jesus. Hope Invasion is an expression of unity in mission, aiming to give every 11 to 14-year-old in York a chance to hear and respond to the gospel message.
Following the event, more than 100 young people have registered their interest in attending a Youth Alpha.
The Alliance is helping to encourage and network unity for mission movements in towns and cities across the country. For more information, visit www.wegather.co.uk
