Anaphylaxis Treatment
The Importance of Anaphylaxis Treatment
Allergies are a part of life for millions of people. Knowing what you should do if the allergies get out of control, or if there is an anaphylaxis response to an allergy, can save lives.
Anaphylaxis symptoms, like allergy symptoms, can involve many reactions, ranging from itching and hives to swelling of the throat, face or lips, or even swelling so severe that it restricts airways. Confusion, abdominal reactions, dizziness and fainting are also possible reactions. When two or more symptoms occur together, it may be an anaphylaxis reaction.
Anaphylaxis reactions require immediate medical attention, otherwise they may be fatal. Even if the symptoms seem to be mild, if more than one part of the body is involved, it is very possible the reaction could become so severe that if treatment isn't given, death could occur.
Anaphylaxis treatment can begin while you are waiting for medical help. Using an EpiPen, if the person has one, may alleviate symptoms, and even save a life. If there is no EpiPen, using an inhaler with Albuterol or another rescue inhaler, or taking an allergy medication with the ingredient Diphenhydramine, such as Benadryl, can help cut down on the severity of the symptoms.
No matter what sort of anaphylaxis treatment you use, there is still the need for medical intervention. The possibility is there that symptoms could return a few hours after the initial attack. Being prepared and getting help can prevent it from getting out of control
If you or anyone in your family has experienced any allergic reaction that involves any of the symptoms of anaphylaxis, you may want to ask your doctor about a prescription for an EpiPen. If you have asthma from allergies, you are at increased risk of having an anaphylactic reaction. Keeping a rescue inhaler and getting an EpiPen may be the thing that will one day save your life.
Being quick to react in any medical emergency saves lives every day. If you think someone is having an anaphylaxis attack, make sure you act quickly to help them get the treatment they need. Approximately 400 people die each year from anaphylaxis. Many of these deaths could be prevented if treatment were sought immediately. Waiting it out to see if symptoms get better or worse can lead to shock and even death.

more low end torque form the stock 350
i need to get some more low end torque form the stock 350 in my mud truck. what are my best bolt on options without spending a ton of money? thanks for the help
p.s. this if for a 94 gmc 1500 on 35" tires dont know the gear ratio
mostly likely a gear ratio issue after adding 35 inch tall tires.
however, long turbo headers are about the cheapest way to add torque.
I believe a 94 350 will benefit from a vortec head swap. I think 94's are the last year of the swirl port head which was a real dog. A vortec head and intake swap is a common thing to do on these trucks. Do some research on a truck site. not to expensive to swap vortec heads and a vortec intake on to your current long block. should be worth 40hp and 40ftlb of torque.
i agree i dont imagine that a 94 1500 has any more than 3.23 or 3.42 gear in it and i believe the last year of the swirl port heads was 95' as they went to the vortec 906/062 heads in 96'. with 35" tires i wouldn't be running anything less than 4.10's but you would even do better with 4.33's or 4.56's. then i would recomend just finding a 96-00' 5.7L vortec engine and just doing a swap as well as putting headers and duals on it. if you had the extra money you could try and find a computer compatible cam say about 210-214° @ .050 to put in it. these engines rarely need to be rebuilt if they have less than 120K on them and if they do it is just ussually honing the cyliders and reringing them. this may be a little out of your budget but i would imagine that you could do it all for less than 1000 if it didn't need to be freshined up, 1500 if it did
thanks ill look into the vortec swap and headers. i know the gear ratio isnt what came in it but i cant remember what he said he put in it... is there a way to find out?
here is the easiest way with out taking the cover off, put a piece of tape on the tire where the tire meets the fender, then put a peice of tape on the driveshaft (one that will be very visible) jack the rear of the truck up and put it in nuetral, rotate the tire one complete turn and count exactly how many full revolutions the driveshaft makes. if the drive shaft makes 3 complete full turns and nothing more then you have 3.08:1, if it makes 3.5 turns then you likely have 3.42:1, if it makes 3.75 turns then you likely have 3.73:1 and if it makes just over 4 turns then you have 4.10:1, get the idea
i've never heard of it halving the results if you have an open diff, but i have heard that if you have and open diff then it would help if you had a friend to hold the other tire to keep it from moving. ive never had to do this as i have never owened a car with an open diff
your other method will work easier, and he could do it him self as long as he find one of the calculators on the internet
im sorry but i have to disagree with your post. ive been around mud trucks since i was a kid and even with 3.08's a 350 SHOULD power them just fine, thats my my dad is running on his right now and it has plenty of power
first thing you need to do is tell us a little more about your setup. is your engine fuel injected or carbed? if its a fuelie, first thing you wanna do is rip all that EFI junk off, toss it in the woods, buy an edlebrock performer intake and carb and put that on.
second, have you done any tuning to the motor at all? checked plugs, wires, distibutor, etc.
i noticed my 350 was feeling a little sluggish and one night i had to pop my hood to top the rad up, there was two plugs arcing out at the boot, so you might wanna try adding dielectric greas to all your plug boots. water and mud dont help them out any. im speaking from experience here.
third, check all your plug gaps,ignition timing,etc.
what are you running for an exhaust?
one more thing, if its a mud truck you better get used to hauling off the diff cover, because every time you get in a real mud hole, your gonna wanna check your diff grease, they fill up full of water quite often, regardless of how good your seals are. while your in there, look at the numbers stamped on your ring gear, there should be two that look something like this "41:9" towards the end of the ring gear, divide the bigger by the smaller number and that tells you your gear ratio.
in this case it would be a 4.56 gear, thats what i have in mine, but im running extremely heavy 38" military tires on mine.
i do alot of mudding so any help you need ill try where i can.
also, if your serious about building a good mud truck, you might want to consider finding an older 4 speed standard from the old style chevs, these things are tough as nails, and give you power on demand....just sayin. also straight axle front housings are MUCH better.
i dont think you know exactly what you are talking about, the fact that it is a 350 and a set of 3.08 gears has nothing to do with the fact that it has 35" tall tires, and yes it can turn it just fine. but any time you add larger tires you throw off the balance between the cam, RPM's, and speed, and stall like if you have a 3.08 rear gear and origianlly had 31" tires on the truck and then you added 35" it will drive as if you had 31" tires and a 2.40 rear gear and that is just plan stupid. and i mentioned to him changing the cam, now a stock 350 EFI has about 190° of duration @ .050 on it's stock cam and i just recomended him to buy a cam that has 210-214° of duration @ .050, and that is also why i mentioned to him that he needed to by a lower rear gear set, otherwise this truck would drive like an absolute dog as it would already with 35" tires and 3.08 gears. and i'm sorry but you have to be about a idiot to put 35" tall tires on a truck with only 3.08 rear gears. and i'm just about postitive that most every one on this site will agree with me. if you dont believe me then just start a new thread about it and see how many people correct you and say you need atleast 4.10's with 35's. this aint my first rodeo, i built an 87' K-5 blazer when i was in high school with 35x12.50's, 383 from a 96' 5.7L vortec, posi with 4.10's and rebuilt the 700R4 with all new bands and clutches, and a mild stall and shift kit, 4" suspension lift, rebuilt the NP241 transfer case out of it, and trust me i did my fair share of muddin', even got her stuck a few times, typically trying to pull someone else out. but to think that ridding around with 35" tires and only 3.08's is okay is not that bright, especially if you think you are going to fare well in the mud with it, you'll have absolutley no pull down low with them
quite frankly sir you can think what you want, i dont personally care what your opinion is. i only said i have to disagree with yours.
i did NOT however call you an idiot in any way shape or form, so you sir can **** off.
now you caan believe what you want, as i said, but ive seen it, done , and drove it hundreds of times, with a 3.08 gear, auto trans and 35" tires, it shouldnt be a problem.
so until youve actually tried it, maybe you should keep your text book ideas to yourself.
look man i really dont want to get into a P'sn match with you i just dont have the energy right now, and when i mentioned the whole IDIOT thing i was not specifically referring to you i was referring to anyone who was willing to do this and think it was ok. will it break parts NO, is it smart NO. if you want to drive it as only a highway truck or dont mind it being a bit sluggish on acceleration then it will be fine, but in the mud it couldn't get out of a wet paper bag and if you wanted to tow a trailer with it then it would take 20+ seconds to even reach highway speeds especially when during this era when they used the 3.08's the 350's didn't even make 200hp if you look them up you will find that they are only rated from the factory from 150-190hp and 220-260tq. you mention TEXT BOOK ideas come on now man didn't i just mention that i had a 87' K-5 blazer that origianlly had 3.08's a crappy 180hp 350 and 33x12.50's when i bought it, that thing couldn't get out of it's own way compaired to what i drive today 02' GMC sierra 2500HD with stock 4.10 posi, 6.0L with oversize tires (that is until i rebuilt that K-5), the day you build what i have then you may be able to talk like this to someone but for now you are really just showing your ignorance
like i said if you doubt me and you have the guts then start a new thread about 35" tires with only 3.08 gears and an aftermarket cam
ive built my mud truck,still have it and drive it every day.
started with an 87 sierra 1500, dropped in a new motor, swapped out 10 bolts with 3.08's and installed a 14 bolt with 4.10's, swapped out 4.10's for 4.56's,38.5" michelin XML tires, installed lockers front and rear, 4" lift springs 3" body lift, 4 speed standard, new fluid clutch,headers,edlebrock carb,equus guages ,custom dash to hold the cd player,custom front and rear bumbers. painted interior, lots of bodywork,removed wiring harness and rebuilt, and now im getting read to swap everything over to a 5/4 ton military frame.
the list goes on.
i dunno maybe you just had a bad one... or we got a good one, either way someone got the bad end of the stick there...because ours worked excellent, mind you our motor wasnt from the 90's,it was a 60's carbed 350, maybe that made the difference?
that could make a huge difference, in the sixtes the low output 350's made 295hp, vs the 180hp from the late 70's through the early 90's, chevy trucks didn't start making 200hp agian untill the mid 90's. i still dont think it is very smart to run 35's with 3.08 rears but that is just my opinion, and when you add an aftermarket cam that puts the power band higher up in the rpm range then you really dont want 3.08 gears as it will take it's sweet time getting the motor into the power band. that is why you really dont see to many cams that dont mention lower gears needed. you can still run the higher gears but it will run like a dog until you get it in the power band and even then it will roll through the power band slow when you want it to spin up faster. your truck sounds nice, the 14bolt it what is in my 02' GMC 3/4T-HD with 4.10's it's a nice rear, although she really doesn't see any mud, the only thing i put her through is towing a camper to mountains once a year and pulling people out when they get stuck in the snow. i used to love to go muddin' but i found out fast that is breaks things and it ain't no fun getting stuck especially when not that many of your friends can get their trucks back where you can. almost eveytime i got stuck i had to call a friend of mine with a 4x6 john deer dually to come get me out along with anyone else who tried to come help me. about a year after i had the truck (87' K-5) i sheared the C-clip in the 10 bolt rear and ended up just replacing it with a 12 bolt and another set of 4.10's, anyway i found that i liked going really fast with brute off the line power better than i did getting dirty and constantly washing my truck.
To answer the question and not argue about gearing....
I agree on headers and dual exhaust as well as a tune up. I disagree that you need to toss the efi. You can probably still get a PROM chip for it that will wake it up alot. I would also check timing and make sure it is not slipped. If it is retarded it will make a real dog. The vortec swap is a great option, but you can probable get more out of yours just with the headers, PROM and tuning.
My opinion would be that the tall gears should be fine. In low range in the mud it should not take that much to turn 35s.
Of course when you want to get serious about turning the tires you can do a B series cummins swap like I did. It'll turn the tires 60mph in the mud at part throttle in 3rd gear .
I would not toss the efi, you can do better with the stock throttle body then you will a carb to suit your engine. Lets see a carb run upside down! For bouncing through holes and trails fuel injection will be a lot better. You can have a prom burnt for it or even better if you are close to a garage that does it take the truck to them after you have done all of the upgrades you have wanted to. Put this in it http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-3581/ OMG dude I put one of these in my 93 K1500 and it was NIGHT and DAY difference, definitely worth the 100 bucks. If they are 3.08 gears (I doubt they are, if they are stock gears they will probably be either 3.48 or 3.73) and you can find a donor truck with a front and rear diff of at least 3.73 swap them out 4.10 will be better. To tell you the truth though if you don't have much into the truck before dumping a barrel full of cash in it I would look for a 87 or older 3/4 ton Chevy pickup. The independent front suspension in the trucks is built like a front wheel drive car. They are not mad for 35" tires. I wouldn't build a mud truck out of this especially with an aggressive 35" tire. But seriously dump the 3.08 gears that is the biggest killer for you if you have them. The best and only real way to check your gear ratio is to pull the pan and mark a tooth on the ring gear (the biggest one) and count them, then count the teeth on the pinion gear (the one that the drive shaft connects to). Take the largest number and divide it by the smallest number and that is your gear ratio. Chances are the rear diff fluid needs changed anyways so just pull the cover and make for sure what you have. Just remember if you swap the rear you have to swap the front. I don't mean to sound like I am talking to you as an idiot I just like to cover stuff.

Also I am not defending anyone just calling out an obvious liar (and got his alt instead I guess, or someone who felt like my words were too close to his own truth).
And you can say it's a straw man all you want, and vogel games are just like classic games and that he is a very trustworthy guy, and any other nonsense you want. Won't make it true.
Remember, vogel calls every critic a troll, so what's that say about him by your logic?

The ecological dynamics of decision making in sport
Araujo, Duarte, Davids, Keith W., & Hristovski, Robert (2006) The ecological dynamics of decision making in sport. Psychology of Sport and Exercise, 7(6), pp. 653-676.
|PDF (221kB)
Objectives: The aim of this position paper is to consider the decision-making process as an integral part of goal-directed behaviour influenced by functional constraints at the scale of the environment-athlete relationship. To achieve this aim we discuss relevant theoretical ideas from ecological psychology, focusing particularly on ecological dynamics, as a contrast to more traditional perspectives on decision making behaviour. To support the argumentation we briefly describe some recent empirical data from studies of sports that emphasize this alternative perspective on decision making. We conclude that traditional approaches analyse decisions as if they were not grounded, i.e., expressed behaviourally through actions in performance contexts. It is argued that an ecological approach should analyse affordances or action possibilities, when studying cognition in sport, demanding an integration of theories and ideas from the natural sciences in order to understand concepts like information and intentionality. Conclusion: Decision-making behaviour is best considered at the level of the performer-environment relationship and viewed as emerging from the interactions of individuals with environmental constraints over time towards specific functional goals.
Key Words: Decision making, ecological psychology, dynamical systems, cognition, action, representative tasks.

Ref. Nature Plants.
Ref. PNAS.
Update (Jan 4): origin of Libyan and West Asian pottery could be Sudan
The oldest pottery in Africa comes from a region more to the south, (but may not have so far shown—or been tested for—plant remains).
That makes some sense to me, as Sudan is one of the oldest Mesolithic (grain-gatherer) areas in the wider West Eurasian area but it is seldom discussed (all the glory goes to the Near East, even if this region was clearly influenced by the Sudan/Nubia Mesolithic, with many implications re. linguistics and genetics).
Thanks for he info, Jm8. That can explain why Libya has such an early pottery. However I feel that the map underestimates the speed of the spread of pottery from China via the Tundra (proto-Uralic peoples carrying Y-DNA N1 and mtDNA C). Some habituals who know better than me on those matters claim that this would be the first ever pottery in West Eurasia (in this case excluding Africa), although it seems less likely to me that it influenced the Near East than the Sudan core, much closer geographically and more directly related via ethno-cultural flows.
There is much older pottery in Japan and China, and in all likelihood some of it was used for cooking. But the African pottery does pre-date European and Near Eastern pottery which seem to be derived from Eastern examples in a gradual western migration of the technology.ReplyDelete
Nobody questions, I believe, that Chinese pottery is the oldest known on Earth (or even that it migrated westward with the proto-Uralic peoples of Siberia), the questions are:
1. Where did the concept of pottery in West Asia and NE Africa originated exactly (and some are claiming it was Nubia, a likely origin for Mesolithic cereal-gathering too)?
2. Was this development independent or influenced by ethno-cultural flows from East Asia? I would lean for independent (no known contact) but it's a question worth considering anyhow.
"European and Near Eastern pottery [seems] to be derived from Eastern examples in a gradual western migration of the technology".
Does it? I really do not see it. The Eastern Asian pottery may have been the first one to reach Eastern Europe or its Western Siberian fringes but how can we make the connection between the taiga and the Fertile Crescent? It's not at all obvious to me. On the other hand, if there was a distinct independent origin in Nubia, the connection seems much much more obvious and simple, associated to Nile archaeological influence on Natufian, the expansion of Afroasiatic languages (and maybe also Nubian-Vasconic ones), that of Y-DNA E1b and other African lineages we find in Neolithic West Asia and its European offshoot, as well as at least part of the so-called "Basal Eurasian" autosomal ghost (which is African-like).
It would not be a direct Mesolithic input from Sudan in any case but rather it should respond to secondary cultural interactions between the Levant and the Nile already well into the Neolithic, interactions of which we know little but we do know must have existed. On the other hand the interactions with Siberia and Eastern Europe in the late PPNB stage (when pottery begins in West Asia) seem most unlikely (but please correct me if I'm overlooking some important clue).
OK, checking some online stuff like this:
→ http://individual.utoronto.ca/lisamaher/PotteryNeolithic.pdf
... and it would seem that the first pottery begins towards the North of the region, what should in principle exclude the African origin. On the other hand it's clearly 1000 years more recent than some African pottery, so the independent African origin of the craft would seem confirmed, even if it probably did not influence the Near East.
It remains open the issue of whether the West Asian pottery development is strictly independent (a mere extension of mudbrick work) or has some sort of Siberian influence. I'd lean for independent but feel free to prove me wrong.
The circumstantial case for an East to West origin is summed up in an illustration borrowed from Bell Beaker blogger in this post: http://dispatchesfromturtleisland.blogspot.com/2016/10/oldest-pottery-now-from-china-rather.htmlReplyDelete
But the illustration seems very misleading UNLESS you can prove early pottery in Central Asia, what does not come from the data points in the original Bell Beaker Blogger entry at all (nor anything else I know of). There is indeed a route of pottery to Eastern Europe via Siberia but there is no clear connection with West Asia or the Aegean (another of the oldest West Eurasian potteries) at all. We cannot fully discard it but we cannot clearly claim it either.Delete

Iroczilla has been making them for those who request it. Pretty sick idea, if you ask me!
Ohh Okay.. Im getting my K&N Intake today! I need to go to UPS to pick it up and then ima install it. I bout my car this year .. Jan. 4.. Its the 2012 model.. I love it bro!
They weren't that expensive.. like $1,100 installed and everything of course. I bought them at J R Electronics on Bird RD and like 90 ave. around there.. Its a good place, i recommend it!.. Do you have a trifecta tune on your Cruze?
Hey man thanks! .., Yea I work at Hialeah campus lol... I have 18" rims on them.. How bout you? I don't think you have any pics of your Cruze on here right?

Yes, they are usually align-bored in place, its generally the same with cam caps, main caps, etc, the holes in them are specifically matched to the holes in the carrier. Otherwise, the circle created by the carrier/cap might be not prefectly matched up. So you mark them left/right, and up/down. I will put one punch mark on the upper left and two punch marks on the upper right when I do mine.
Talking to someone who's done them before would be undoubtedly helpful. One thing that people do, is make a 2nd set of bearings which have been opened up so they aren't a press fit onto the carrier. THey'll use those to get the shimming right, then switch in the press fit bearings at the end.
If you managed to save your old bearings, they could get used for that purpose.

In 1995, two primary schoolboys went to watch their country play Pakistan at Harare's main cricket ground. Accompanied by their friends from the poorer parts of town, the boys cheered as Zimbabwe recorded their first victory in Test cricket.
Tatenda Taibu, the youngest of the pair by 11 days, turned to his friend Stuart and said: "One day we must play together for Zimbabwe".
Taibu has kept his part of the bargain and nowadays serves as his country's vice-captain and wicket-keeper, a task he performs so skilfully that an umpiring mistake alone prevented him breaking a world record of his own in Perth. The only byes conceded in Australia's massive innings came from an inside edge.
Stuart Matsikenyeri has batted gamely for Zimbabwe in one-day cricket and is pressing for a place in the Test side. Taibu has thrown so many balls to him, he says, that "his arm must be falling off".
Taibu and his comrade grew up together in Highfields, a heavily populated suburb in the nation's capital that contains both stone houses and tin shacks. Taibu says that it is a "good place", and that he did not suffer any particular hardship. His father owned a barber's shop but passed away when the boy was 13. His mother died in 2001, leaving the teenager to take care of himself and his younger brothers.
Cricket came into Taibu's life in his junior school days. Steve Mangongo and other coaches appointed by the Zimbabwe Cricket Union were trying to spread the game in the high density areas and Taibu liked the look of it . Mangongo, he says, "taught us to view life in a tough way. We had to be brave." His father was pleased with his newfound enthusiasm because it would help him avoid "drugs, alcohol and other mischief".
Meanwhile, Matsikenyeri was growing up with his parents in a police camp where he lived until his father passed away. Soccer was his strong point, and they called him "Maradona", but he was small and did not want to get roughed up by the big boys.
He saw a bunch of fellows playing cricket and decided to join them. He has been playing cricket ever since, even surviving the calamity of breaking a window in his house. "He did not want to go home that day!" Taibu recalls. His mother wanted him to concentrate on his books but his father knew the game was keeping him out of trouble.
Soon the lads joined forces. Helped by their friends, the boys developed their own ground. The council decided to plant trees on their version of Lord's, a turn of events that displeased them. "It was not good news," Matsikenyeri chuckles, "we didn't approve at all." The solution was simple. Every day the boys surreptitiously removed a tree until the area was flat again, a strategy that resulted in numerous hidings and a satisfactory cricket arena. Thereafter, the boys would rush home from school to practise. "It was cricket, cricket, cricket," Taibu says in his well modulated voice. Next came a scholarship to Churchill School, which has become a cricketing stronghold. Cricket, not money, was on their minds, Taibu confirms. "We had not even thought about the education that came our way." He rose to be Zimbabwean captain and man of the tournament during the under-19 world cup. Taibu believes that better days lie ahead for him. " Just watch," he says, with a smile.
He is likewise confident that Hamilton Masakadza will succeed once he returns from university. Matsikenyeri remembers their first ever practice on grass. Masakadza was hit on the eye and forced to retire. "Some of the boys were hurt and did not come back ," says Matsikenyeri. "Hamilton was hit hardest, and he returned next week."
No sooner had the Perth Test finished than these young men were back in the nets. Matsikenyeri is searching for a balance between technique and aggression. He knows that sometimes he gets carried away but believes that "everyone has his own style. Fighting against it can bring you down." His foundations are strong and now it is a matter of fighting for his place.
These days, Taibu and Matsikenyeri share a house in Harare and laugh when cooking is mentioned. Taibu reminds his pal of the promise made all those years ago and points out that it is "still to be done".
Matsikenyeri says Zimbabwe must win. He wants "more successes for our country because then people go around with smiles on their faces".

RECAP: Rebellion's in the Air on DOWNTON ABBEY's Episode 3
In case you missed the eventful third episode of the widely popular UK series Downton Abbey last Sunday, here's everythihg you Need to Know before this Sunday's show. Downton Abbey airs Sundays on PBS. Check local listings.
As a dark figure darts furtively across town in the pouring rain, Lady Edith receives a cryptic phone call from Sybil at Downton Abbey. Later, the mystery continues when a dinner with the Archbishop of York is interrupted by pounding on the front door. Branson, soaked, meets Mary in the hall and, giving little information, asks that she keep his arrival a secret from their guests.
He later explains himself and Sybil to the entire family. Their fears of accepting an Irish Socialist into their world have finally come to fruition. Tom is running from the police, accused of being an instigator of an attack on an estate in Ireland and he left Sybil behind to close their flat while he escaped. Needless to say, the Crawleys are appalled that he left their pregnant daughter to fend for herself, though the Dowager Countess seems comforted by the fact that such a "horrible" house had been burned by the rebels.
Once again, Lord Grantham bends to his wife and daughters' wishes and arranges for Tom's freedom, but not without a price; the pair must never return to Ireland. I'll go out on a limb and guess that Tom won't have an easy time of this when he is so eager to be part of his country's "coming of age." For the moment however, his love for his wife and her pleas to consider the health and safety of their unborn child will keep him at Downton.
The world of Downton Abbey is moving further into the twenties and drastic changes like the rebellious stirrings in Ireland are becoming increasingly pervasive. As the corsets loosen, so too does the Crawleys' grasp on the world to which they've become accustomed. And it seems as if the new co-owner of the estate is going to be a primary source of such change. Matthew, after reviewing the books, is concerned that Downton is being mismanaged. His efforts to discuss the matter are evaded by Mary and Robert so he is forced to turn to an unlikely ally, the Dowager Countess. Dare he suggest such radical modifications as using the same spoon for soup and bouillon?
Meanwhile, Lord Grantham finds yet another of his daughters acting against tradition. Edith, upon the recommendation of her grandmother, seeks distraction from her recent abandonment at the altar, and takes interest in the women's suffrage movement. Her letter on the topic is published in the newspaper, much to the chagrin of Robert and Cora.
Downstairs, Daisy also feels the spark of female empowerment and spends the episode mustering courage to express her feelings to Alfred. When finally the moment comes to speak to him, Mrs. Patmore interrupts and introduces them both to the new kitchen maid, Ivy, who immediately steals Alfred's attention, and once again Daisy loses her nerve. I guess the promotion to Assistant Cook will have to suffice for now.

NC Republican fundraises off Hannity-Fox News praise
On September 13, Sean Hannity hosted North Carolina congressional candidate Ilario Pantano (R) and told him that "you belong in Congress, I'm very impressed." In an email [1], Pantano highlighted the Fox News exchange to raise campaign funds. The campaign also issued a press release [2] yesterday calling the Hannity praise a "significant achievement."
Hannity has been a non-stop get out the vote machine for Republican candidates this election cycle. Briefly, Hannity has:
- fundraised [3] for Ohio gubernatorial candidate John Kasich; repeatedly referred to Kasich as "governor" and "soon-to-be governor"; and encouraged him to run in 2008.
- launched [4] the candidacy [5] of New York congressional candidate John Gomez by promising officials he would promote and fundraise for him.
- been thanked [6] by Christine O'Donnell for his support.
- used [7] his show as a fundraising venue [8] for Sharron Angle.
- frequently hosted [9] disgraced Fox News contributor Dick Morris to encourage viewers to donate to Republican candidates.
- offered campaign messages [10] for Republicans, such as running on "not apologizing for America" [11]
- keynoted a March fundraiser [12] for the NRCC, which reportedly raised [13] $7 million.
(Again, that's Hannity's political activism in brief.)
As Media Matters has documented [14], Republicans [15] have acknowledged that Fox News plays an important role in their electoral chances. Republicans also regularly [8] mention [16] Fox News [17] in soliciting support to their causes - online and off [18].
From Pantano's email:
Just the other day, Sean Hannity said to me on primetime news, "You belong in Congress. I'm very impressed." And America is taking notice.
In the last 7 days the tide has turned -- Sean Hannity told me on prime time news that he's impressed and I deserve to be in Congress, new polls show me with a 7-point lead among highly likely voters, the NRCC named me a "Young Gun" and committed to funding a $45,000 ad buy in my district. Help me capitalize on this momentum by matching the NRCC ad buy to keep the new television spot live. Please follow this link right now to make a contribution of $45, $50 or whatever you can afford up to the $2,400 limit? Every dollar counts and will go a long way toward victory. Thank you.

High school students want to give the shirts off their backs
By DALE VINCENT
New Hampshire Union Leader | March 07. 2014 10:00PM
Friday morning, from left, Manchester High School West student council members Zerina Bajramovic, Erin Lawrence, Anna Calzini and Lamia Mukanovic sort through jackets collected during a clothing drive the last few weeks at the school. The clothes gathered will benefit homeless veterans, the Child and Family Services teen drop-in, and a new WHS clothing closet/pantry. (JOSH GIBNEY/UNION LEADER)
When students turn 18, she said, some parents kick them out and they are on their own, sleeping in cars, or staying with friends.
He said West Principal Christopher Motika endorsed the project because he had experience with a clothing closet as an assistant principal at Nashua North High School.
Vanessa, who said the donations showed the word got out beyond the school, said: "Everybody has something they don't need at their house."
"I know that lots of families struggle," said Wyman.
Joseph Riley, who said he has lots of free periods as a senior, was wearing shorts when he arrived with the Avards and Wyman. He was wearing shorts and said: "Cold is just a state of mind."
Glass said he's pleased with the student council support, especially from the seniors. "This would be a good legacy," he said.

Association Between Perfectionism And Burnout In Young Soccer Players
Dr Andrew Hill, lecturer in sports and exercise science in the University of Leeds' School of Biomedical Sciences, said some youngsters are showing signs of chronic stress, exhaustion, and disillusion with their sport at a young age.
Researchers studied the relationship between different types of perfectionism and burnout among 167 junior male soccer players in eight academies and centres of excellence attached to English professional clubs.
They found that up to a quarter of the boys reported sometimes experiencing symptoms of burnout, while about one percent experienced certain symptoms frequently.
Players who reported perceived pressures from others, a fear of making mistakes, and other external pressures were at the most risk from burnout. Non-perfectionists and players who displayed perfectionism driven by their own high standards were significantly less vulnerable.
"What we see among the athletes showing symptoms of burnout is emotional and physical exhaustion, a sense that they are not achieving and a sense of devaluation of the sport. Even though they might originally enjoy their sport and be emotionally invested in it, they eventually become disaffected. Participation can be very stressful," Dr Hill said.
Many professional soccer clubs' youth structures recruit children as young as 8-years-old and cut unwanted players annually until they reach 12. Youngsters then sign two-year registrations and must survive "culls" at the age of 14 and 16 before getting a three-year contract.
"It can be harsh. At its worst, we are talking about an environment that can develop, foster and maintain a mindset where athletes are wholly invested into the idea of being the next David Beckham. In fact, of the estimated 10,000 athletes involved in youth football at any one time, less than one per cent is thought to make it as a professional soccer player.
"Perfectionism can be a potent energising force but can also carry significant costs for athletes when things don't go well. Reports of psychological difficulties and interpersonal problems, for example, are not uncommon among athletes who describe themselves as perfectionists. [The British athletes] Victoria Pendleton, Ronnie O'Sullivan, and Jonny Wilkinson are all high-profile examples," he added.
"We need sport to be a positive experience for all participants," Dr Hill said. "Sport can be used as a vehicle to develop life skills, a sense of self-esteem and quality relationships with others, but we know it can lead to disaffection, poor moral decision making and make people feel miserable about themselves. There is nothing necessarily positive about sport. It is about the environment that is created."
He added: "Perfectionists are stuck in a self-defeating cycle. They are overly dependent on personal accomplishment as a means of establishing a sense of self-esteem but are always dissatisfied with their efforts. Even success can be problematic because they simply become more demanding until they inevitably experience failure."

The sobering reality is that 82.5 percent of Stanford's pass production graduates this June. The Cardinal racked up 2,802 receiving yards last season, 2,312 of them came courtesy of seniors. Furthermore, tight ends Ertz and Toilolo amassed 93 of the Farm Boys' 240 catches and 1,291 of 2,802 reception yards. Both stalwarts are among the troops leaving to pursue careers at the next level, so there's a looming production void at tight end that the Stanford coaching staff must address.
Speed and Power: Kaumatule Filling Tight End Shoes
The brain trust's favorite option right now is incoming sophomore Luke Kaumatule, whose six-foot-seven inch frame oozes with potential.
"His size definitely makes him an asset," Stanford offensive coordinator Mike Bloomgren said. "He has to get better from a technique standpoint. He needs to keep working with Shannon Turley in the weight room, keep doing all those things regarding flexibility so he can generate the power necessary."
The staff has been impressed with Kaumatule's soft hands and savage football instincts, a combination that prompted them to move the Hawaiian over from defensive end when he first arrived on campus last year. But replicating Toilolo's and Ertz's run-blocking efficiency is the one vital goal for his development, and it's something that Stanford is confident will happen with work in the coming months before the 2013 season kicks off.
"With Luke's speed and size, he's always been good about being violent. He likes that part of the game. What he's got to get better at is the one-on-one block at the point of attack," Bloomgren explained. "He just needs the 1,000 reps that we're going to give him time and time again in spring ball. He needs to be a touch lower. He needs to get better with his hands and targets."
A Cajuste Boost?
There's been plenty of speculation that receiver Devon Cajuste or fullback Ryan Hewitt could shift back to tight end in 2013. Both players, after all, were initially recruited to The Farm at that position. At this point, though, the plan is to keep both at their current spots -- though Bloomgren acknowledged that further development could change that blueprint.
"Now, there may come a time when Devon's body just decides it's no longer going to be a receiver," he said. "If he gets over 240, 245 pounds, then he's going to fall into that role of a Coby Fleener. He's going to have to do some of that wing blocking, and Fleener even did some stuff at the point of attack."
Though he is bulking up, Cajuste currently only weighs in a tad over 220 pounds, a figure which makes his 6-4 height a "mismatch waiting to happen" at the receiver position, according to QB/WR coach Mike Sanford. Still, Bloomgren says he can see Cajuste following Fleener's trajectory toward the tight end position.
"Coby was really a glorified receiver, especially if you watched him early in his career. He didn't do any blocking at the point of attack early in his career," Bloomgren said. "But by the end, especially with Zach hurt and Levine banged up, he had to block at the point of attack and he did a nice job. It's just a natural progression for those guys, to start doing more and more in-line blocking."
Cajuste's situation is especially promising because of the stellar run blocking he displayed on the perimeter in the second half of the 2012 season, which included excellent work during Stanford's two touchdown drives early in the Rose Bowl.
"Devon loves blocking," Bloomgren said. "Whether it was cracking down on a linebacker or blocking a defensive end to get a toss play started, he does that stuff so willingly and he's such a tough kid. You talk about him and Ty Montgomery out there as receivers, they can get those hits on safeties."
The U Tight End: Hewitt's Plan, Dudchock, Frkovic
Meanwhile, Stanford has been so thrilled with Hewitt's work at the fullback spot that they intend to keep him there, though the staff understands that necessity may occasionally force him out of the backfield.
"[Hewitt] does so many great things for us at fullback that we really don't want to move him," head coach David Shaw said.
Of course, the bruising Braveheart warrior has shown the ability to be effective in the passing game, particularly on short play-action passes to the flat. Though his receiving production dropped from 34 catches in 2011 to 14 receptions in 2012, it kicked back into gear when Hogan took over at the quarterback position in November.
A promising trio of incoming freshman recently signed with the Cardinal at the tight end position, but the likelihood Eric Cotton, Greg Taboada, or Austin Hooper are physically ready for significant offensive contributions next season is slim. Shaw expects them to provide depth at special teams, while fourth tight end recruit Kevin Palma will at least begin his Stanford career at linebacker.
"We're going to get through spring with some smoke and mirrors," Bloomgren said of his offense. "Hewitt can play some of that U tight end like he's always done, but the big thing is we've got guys who have got to come and get better."
One of those intriguing players is Alabama native Davis Dudchock, whose playing time dropped precipitously in 2012 after a 2011 season in which he saw action due to the Ertz and Toilolo injuries.
"We really hope [Dudchock can develop to contribute]," Bloomgren said of the 6-foot-4, 242-pound incoming senior who turned down offers in the Southeast to come to Stanford. "He is a guy who has proven that he can catch the ball well and catch it in traffic. He runs routes well. He has to get better at those blocks, but he can do it. He can have a role as a U tight end in our offense without question."
The staff is also excited by incoming sophomore Alex Frkovic, whose 6-foot-5 size makes him another candidate to contribute at tight end. He missed 2011 with an injury, though, making development evaluation difficult.
Tracking the Big Boys Up Front
The group of starting Farm Boy hogs will stay mostly intact with the exception of Schwartzstein's center position. Because of the responsibility assigned to the "quarterback of the offensive line," a veteran is expected to take that spot. Kevin Danser or Khalil Wilkes, who competed with Schwartzstein for the center job in the two seasons prior to 2012, is favored to shift over from one of the guard positions to snap the ball. That would allow left tackle David Yankey (a fantastic pull-blocker) to move back to his natural guard position, or potentially open up a guard spot for incoming sophomore behemoth Joshua Garnett.
Stanford's line shuffling decisions will play a large role in determining whether or not tackles Andrus Peat or Kyle Murphy will start in their second seasons. More on that matter will be known as spring development takes its effect.
Meanwhile, the depth of Stanford's offensive line is packing on the muscle to see more future playing time. While Peat, Murphy, and Garnett stole the show in 2012, a crop of other youngsters has yet to see playing time. Guard Johnny Caspers, tackle Nick Davidson and center Graham Shuler, each decorated members of the 2012 recruiting class, have strengthened their frames.
Caspers and Davidson, who arrived on campus last year at 287 and 282 pounds, respectively, have both added about 20 pounds of muscle. The early-morning grind of 2013 winter workouts is now taking its toll.
"When you have those 300 pound frames at your first 6 a.m., it's not a lot of fun," Bloomgren laughed. "And it probably wasn't a lot of fun for those guys, but they didn't let us see it."
The two offensive linemen in Stanford's 2011 recruiting class, tackle Brendon Austin and guard Kevin Reihner, have also been making strides.
"It's been about polishing technique for me," Reihner said. "On top of that, [it's] getting stronger, working on all the small things, especially my hands. The coaches really preach that."
Gaffney's Return: Running Back and Receiver Effects
As of last week, Sanford said that Anthony Wilkerson was the leading candidate for the Cardinal's top running back spot, in large part because of how well he ran the ball in the Rose Bowl. Tyler Gaffney's announced return from professional baseball, though, arms Stanford with another enviable combination of strength, speed, and polish at the position. Assuming Gaffney can shake off the rust associated with 13 months off the football field, Stanford will possess an embarrassment of riches in the backfield whose development will be closely tracked once spring competition begins. Ricky Seale, Remound Wright and Barry Sanders will all be in the mix, while fullbacks Lee Ward and Pat Skov may also get extended looks if Hewitt does indeed occasionally shift over to tight end.
And while tracking Stanford's off-season development at tight end will certainly be intriguing, the reloading job at wide receiver is every bit as vital. The team's slew of departures (and recent history of inconsistent performance at the position) suggests that Ty Montgomery must deliver a bounce-back junior campaign after only hauling in 26 passes in 2012. Terrell and Patterson are both graduating, so plenty of spots on the Cardinal perimeter are in flux.
As mentioned, the staff sees Cajuste as a legitimate downfield threat who can also be effective moving in motion to block. Incoming 6-foot-4 freshman Francis Owusu has the potential to be the best true freshman wide receiver on the West Coast, but the Farm Boys are counting on a quartet of relatively inexperienced sophomores to flesh out their passing attack -- on top of Kelsey Young, whose role looks to expand in 2013, of course.
Shaw praised Michael Rector, Conner Crane, and Kodi Whitfield for their drive thus far in winter workouts. Sanford also expressed enthusiasm about the improvement of Dontonio Jordan, the fourth receiver in the 2012 recruiting class. Rector, who spent much of this past redshirt campaign battling back from an early knee injury, has the speed the staff is looking for in a deep threat. The coaches regard Whitfield as the best all-around receiver of the group, while Crane's 6-foot-4 height and work ethic make him a darkhorse candidate for 2013 passes.
"Conner's the kind of guy who runs routes for hours every day in the summer," Sanford said. "He's really hungry to improve."
In the end, much of the receiver competition will follow a similar Stanford theme: the player who blocks most effectively should have a big leg up.

That's what I was thinking.
Just out of curiosity, is this a limitation of monowall, or could I
find something in a full linux distribution that would run on a Soekris
and be able to keep a PPTP connection up.
One of my main issues is that I can't quite get a reliable signal and
have an internal PCMCIA card. If I could get something that I could
hook an antenna up to, then it would be quite doable if I could find
something to connect with and would share the connection.

Answers needed before making decision on backup methods
This Article Covers
Backup software
Would you please advise me on what backup method you would recommend for an accounting firm to use for its backup purposes? And, what type/model of that method is appropriate for this firm to use?
I don't have a blanket recommendation for accounting firms. It would depend on the types of applications it is using, such as e-mail, Web serving and database. There are a number of accounting packages, each needing to be treated separately. I'd have to know the answers to those questions before making a recommendation.
Drill down into today's new backup approaches
Due to the features of most modern backup software – which include snapshot management, DR elements, cloud support, VM protection – backups can do so much more than simply restoring data in the event of a storage or server failure. Download this guide and not only discover the latest upgrades to today's top enterprise backup vendors, but also learn where backup software works best in your computing environment.

After the carwash
Maybe you have the DR set, I found out that the velvia and DR would make the shadows a bit too much for some reason (one would expect oposite)
But I like the velvia colors, even more since anything printed in the big chain stores still look like s* t. Even if you put screaming colors, what you get printed back is some muddy puddle.
Hansplast26 wrote:
I like velvia, but I think the camera doesn't really produce velvia. probably it is better just to stay at std / provia instead (or raw). i made a couple of actions in photoshop that do saturation and contrast adjustments so it looks more like velvia.
i was just playing around and compared a few shots. the biggest issue i see with out of the camera velvia is the shadows, details are lost in there.-- hide signature --

Marine awards roundupPosted on
The AMI, Florida Brokers Association, Marine Fabricators Association and the International Game Fish Association recently handed out honors.
The Association of Marina Industries recently presented its Bob Giesler Award to Richard Dunn, former president of the Marina Recreation Association and owner of RiverPoint Landing Marina and Resort in Stockton, Calif.
AMI's highest award, named for Bob Giesler, the first president of the Marina Operators Association of America, which later merged with the International Marina Institute to become the AMI, is granted in appreciation for an individual's significant contributions to AMI's success.
"AMI doesn't present this award annually," said Jim Frye, president and chair of AMI, in a statement. "The board of directors gives serious thought into whether someone should receive AMI's highest recognition. Richard's commitment to the marina industry is evident through his involvement over the years with MOAA, IMI, AMI, and MRA. He was an integral part of the highly successful MOAA/IMI merger."
Dunn is the former vice president of IMI and has been an active member of MRA since 1990, serving on the MRA's board of directors and as president of the California-based association. He remains on the legislative committee for both MRA and AMI.

The Florida Yacht Brokers Association recently presented its broker of the year and charter broker of the year awards.
The broker of the year award was presented to Andrew Cilla of Luke Brown Yachts. The charter broker of the year award was presented to Ann Landry of Northrop and Johnson.

Bristol Upholstery, of Plymouth, Conn., recently received an award of excellence in the soft enclosures category at the Marine Fabricators Association's national convention, which was held last month in Orlando, Fla.
MFA is a division of the Industrial Fabrics Association International.

The International Game Fish Association recently presented Hell's Bay Boatworks with its conservation award.
"Today, Hell's Bay Boatworks is led by a team of dedicated fishermen, outdoorsmen and adventurers. Hell's Bay is passionate about giving back to the sport of fishing by supporting non-profit organizations that value the longevity of the sport," the IGFA said in presenting the award.
In addition to donating to the IGFA, the company supports the Bonefish &Tarpon Trust and Coastal Conservation Association, IGFA's conservation director Jason Schratwieser said in a statement.
"It's really great to see a company that's clearly a leader in the skiff building business also give back to help ensure the future of our fisheries," he said.

Kent Brantly Shows Signs of Improvement in Fight Against Ebola
Treatment continues at Emory University Hospital for the American doctor who contracted Ebola while working with patients in West Africa.
CBS News Correspondent Omar Villafranca reports that Dr. Kent Brantly is showing signs of improvement.
Doctor Tom Frieden of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says Brantly is already getting better less than 24 hours after he started to receive care in an isolation unit in the hospital.
"We're hoping he'll continue to improve but Ebola is such a scary disease because it's so deadly," said Frieden.
A fellow colleague of Brantly and second American medical missionary stricken with the often deadly Ebola virus is expected to be flown Tuesday to the U.S. for treatment at the Emory University Hospital's infectious disease unit.

Heavenly views from the Kahlenberg
The Kahlenberg is 484 metres high and has a long history. It was given as a gift by Emperor Ferdinand II. to the Camaldolese Order in 1628. At the heart of the monastery built there arose St. Josephs' Church. However, the Kahlenberg was actually made famous by Polish King Sobiesky, who marched over the Kahlenberg with his army in 1683 and liberated Vienna at the very last minute from the Turkish occupiers.
Today, the Kahlenberg is above all a popular excursion destination and the top can be reached in about four hours on Vienna's City Hiking Trail 1. At the highest point of the mountain is the Stefaniewarte. This 22 metre-tall viewing tower was built in 1887 and named after Crown Princess Stefanie of Belgium. Just below the summit stands the Baroque St. Joseph's Church, whose black Madonna made it a popular pilgrimage church. From there, you arrive at the panorama terrace, which invites you to stay awhile and gaze down on Vienna. A restaurant and takeaway cafe offer not only beautiful views, but also Viennese delights.
City hiking trail 1a leads to the neighbouring 425 meter-high Leopoldsberg, the easternmost foothill of the Alps. The Babenberg Count Leopold III had a castle built here in the 12th century, most of which still stands today. A special feature here is the 1.5 kilometre-long Nasenweg with its unique fauna and flora and its impressive view of the Danube.
Those who would prefer not to walk can reach the Kahlenberg in comfort by bus (line 38A from Heiligenstadt via Grinzing) or by car (via Grinzing and the Höhenstrasse).

La Duena Robusto No. 5
La Duena Robusto No. 5
La Duena: a maduro-wrapped smoke rich with Don Pepin Garcia pedigree. Blended to Janny Garcia's liking by her brother Jaime and Tatuaje's Pete Johnson at the My Father factory, this medium-plus bodied Nicaraguan smoke pegs the meter on full flavor - just like the Don's daughter prefers. If, like her, you want a stick that brims with Pepin flavor, isn't too strong and smokes sweet thanks to a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper - put this Janny-approved cigar on your must-buy list today.
It surprised me when I saw that this cigar had no reviews. This is a great cigar in every way. You can smoke this stick down to your fingernails and it keeps on delivering. If you haven t tried one you are really missing out. Come on, what are you waiting for.
