I just got a 1969 base cougar that has a m vin code which I understand means a 351w 4v engine. The engine is a 351w with a 2100 2 barrel carb. So does this mean that the carb was swapped at some point or possibly the engine? Is there any way to tell if the engine is original to the car? If this is the original engine would anything else have been modified for the 2v carb that would need to be changed if I go back to a 4v?

With the opening losses to St. John's and SMU, Virginia began where it left off at the end of the 2007 season when it slumped in the second half of the season --
a 1-5-2 record in the ACC and second-round exit from the NCAA Tournament.
But the same day Coach George Gelnovatch from Virginia Athletics Director Craig Littlepage got a vote of confidence with a new four-year contract, the Cavs rebounded with an overtime win at Mason.
Chris Agorsor, the MVP of the 2008 U.S. Soccer Development Academy for the U-17/18 champion Baltimore Bays, scored at Mason, as did another star of the inaugural Development Academy, Brian Ownby of the Richmond Strikers.
Perhaps the most spectacular freshman has been Tony Tchani, a 6-foot-4 forward who wears bright yellow shoes. Tchani, who was born in Cameroon and came to the United States less than two years ago, scored twice against Hofstra -- first on a free kick and then on a low shot past Hofstra goalie James Winters.
HARTFORD DERBY. No. 22 Central Connecticut State had to settle for a 1-1 tie with local rival Hartford on Tuesday night. The Blue Devils had rallied from a 1-0 deficit to tie the score on sophomore Christopher Brown's goal, but they later lost captain Yan Klukowski to a red card with 28 minutes left in the second half.

anyways... I' ve made a custom thingy.
I' ve got no idea what the name is, I don' t know anything about mandalorians or whatever... basically this is just something that I' d like to do. If Boba would need some companionship and he would so happen to ask me to join in on some killer adventure... so here geek, paint up your suit... this is what it would look like.
that's the idea.
I just didn' t want it to look like: I don' t have the money, skill or patience to create Boba.

Here's How the Average American Spends the 24 Hours of Their Day
I think we all get to the end of our day wishing that their were just a few more hours left to get EVERYTHING done. It makes you wonder what exactly are we doing with the 24 hours we have in each day. Well, the U.S. Department of Labor just released the results of their annual study in the Wall Street Journal on how we Americans use our time. And you'll be happy to know we work a little, we sleep a lot, and we don't waste our free time with ANYTHING productive.
Here's how the average American's 24 hours break down in a day and we'll also compare them to how we spent our hours in 2007, before the recession.
SLEEP: 8 hours, 23 minutes. That's up five minutes from 2007 and, ya know, MORE than the recommended eight hours of sleep. Who are these people and why am I not getting 8 and 1/2 hours of sleep.
LEISURE ACTIVITIES: 4 hours, 40 minutes. That breaks down even further into 2 hours, 31 minutes of TV and 2 hours, 9 minutes of other activities. TV time is up five minutes from 2007, other leisure time is up one minute.
WORK: 4 hours, 24 minutes. That's down 25 MINUTES from 2007. A lot of that change comes from people losing their jobs and dropping from eight or nine hours of work a day to ZERO.
HOUSEHOLD CHORES: 1 hour, 41 minutes. Down one minute from 2007.
EATING: 1 hour, 12 minutes. That's up one minute from 2007.
PERSONAL CARE: 49 minutes. That includes things like showering, shaving, and putting on make-up. It's up three minutes from 2007.
PURCHASING GOODS AND SERVICES: 43 minutes. That's down two minutes from 2007.
EDUCATION: 36 minutes. That's up four minutes from 2007.
CARING FOR HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS: 32 minutes. Down two minutes from 2007.
ORGANIZATIONAL, CIVIC, AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES: 16 minutes. No change from 2007.
CARING FOR NON-HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS: 12 minutes. Up one minute from 2007.
TELEPHONE, MAIL, AND EMAIL: 11 minutes. Down one minute from 2007.
And finally, OTHER ACTIVITIES: 21 minutes. Up 10 minutes from 2007.

The results of a recent study characterizing microbial communities in public restrooms may be enough to change the ways of those who don't already wash their hands after using the toilet. The study found that restrooms are dominated by human-associated bacteria--particularly those from the skin, gut, and urinary tract. Although this is not particularly surprising, the "biogeography" of these species--or which surfaces they were most commonly found inhabiting--was a bit unexpected. While there were three distinct clusters of species (bacteria on or near toilets, those on the floor, and those on surfaces mostly touched by hands), there were also several groups of bacteria that were present on all surfaces. This includes gut and urine bacteria, which were found not only on the seats and handles of toilets, but also on sink faucet handles, soap dispensers, and even on the handles of doors leading out of the restroom--in other words, the areas touched after hand-washing has already been completed.
No wonder - the majority of guys do not wash their hands (properly) after using the toilet (ASM News, October 2002, p.477) and the comments by F.D.A. Rosenberg (ASM News, January 2003, p. 1), V. G. Wilson (ASM News, April, 2003, p. 162), and F. A. Rosenberg (ASM News, July 2003, p. 319). And then pathogens are also found in soap dispensers (Microbe Volume 2, Number 8, 2007 p. 375)

Freshman Rep. Dennis Ross proposed workforce reductions during campaign
Cutting the federal workforce will likely be a primary topic of
debate for the House subcommittee that oversees federal workers,
according to the panel's new chairman.
Freshman Rep. Dennis Ross (R-Fla.), who now heads the House Oversight
and Government Reform Committee's Federal Workforce, U.S. Postal
Service and Labor Policy Subcommittee, told the Washington Post recently that cuts to the federal payroll will be his first focus.

Full committee chair Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) said he wants Ross
to explore how to build a "21st century workforce that no longer grows
itself at the expense of private sector job creation, and gets more done
with less," the Post wrote.
Ross, a former in-house counsel for Walt Disney World and a Tea
Party-backed House candidate, proposed reductions in the federal
workforce during his campaign.
In a document outlining his policy positions, Ross proposed offering
federal workers buyouts for early retirement or automation such as the
Postal Service did in 2009.
He also proposed "zero-based budgeting" for all federal agencies and
continuous investigation into outdated government programs and wasteful
House Republicans have introduced legislation to freeze federal
civilian employee pay for a total of three years, reduce the size of the
federal workforce by 10 percent or force those employees to take a
two-week unpaid furlough next year.
Ross said in an interview with the Post that his subcommittee will
consider these proposals by gathering facts and not by pushing a "hidden
agenda." Ross said he wants to "ask a lot of questions" and "get a lot
of experts testifying before us" to understand how to deliver benefits
to active and retired federal employees in a cost-effective manner,
according to the Post.
Although Ross said he is excited about his new role, he admitted
during the Post interview that he knows little about the federal
Another freshman, Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.), the House's second youngest member, will serve as Ross's vice chairman.

While most posts are centered around maligning Rep. Ross, I actually feel sorry for him. Someone has talked the rookie into a lose-lose situation. If he succeeds and cuts the workforce (unlikely), he ticks off his constituents and doesn't get re-elected. If he fails his opponents will use it to show how he is incompetent resulting in him not getting re-elected. His only saving grace may be if he has limited success but doesn't cut any jobs in FL. In other words, typical politics.
Full Disclosure: Although I'm from FL, Mr. Ross is not from my district.
Hello... he definitely knows nothing about the Federal workforce. Or the Postal Service for that matter. He evidently does not know that USPS does not receive any tax money, even though we are regulated to the hilt by the government. If we were allowed to operate more as a business without the constraints, we wouldn't need help. We are not allowed to ask for a bailout, we have to cut our workforce, wages, facilities, etc. Of course, the consumer knows nothing of this, they only see Post Offices closing in their areas. WAKE UP big brother... we don't cost you a dime. Stamps, postage, and retail items pay for it all. And we are still the most efficient and cheapest in the world.
Maybe Rep. Dennis Ross (R-Fla.) should actually talk to some of the Federal workers who have had to take on the work of all the contractors that have been released and federal employees that have retired and not been replaced due to budget cuts over the past 5 years. I'm now responsible for the work previously done by myself and 3 contractors and it is impacting my health due to the stress of not having enough staff to perform the work still required. And now along with all the additional medical bills I have, our CoLIs have been frozen and they want to give us 10 day furloughs. I don't make 1/2 of what my industry counterparts make (my coontractors make more than I do!!!) and if this keeps up the Government won't have me to work as slave labor for much longer, I'll take one of those offers I've had from the private sector. I work for the Federal Government because I believe in doing a service for my country but only if I can live and be healthy which apparently the Republicans don't care about.
Pay freezes, furloughs, benefit cuts. No problem reducing the number of FEDs with that agenda. Just be prepared to have a the leftovers being least common denominator clock punchers. The Federal government will become the uninformed perception that Rep. Ross and his ilk are projecting -- the employer of last resort. As a taxpayer, I want to have my taxes buying the best talent available to provide excellence in service to the Nation. The workforce is an asset, not an expense!

A little about me.....
I was the Sr. On-line video producer at Martha Stewart for 8 years where I oversaw all video content that went up on the web. I oversaw editing of The Martha Stewart Show for the web as well as various projects for the other departments when needed. It was a good experience to be immerced in so much beautiful images and video that I know has influenced me and my work.
I've been working in the digital world for the past 15 years. I started with Show and Tell Productions as it was beginning it's successful venture into Digital Signs, Video and presentation. The first major client was ABC and its Super Sign in Times Square. That was a super : ) exciting project. At Show and Tell we worked closely with NBC, CBS, Toys R Us as well as smaller agencies.
I'm really excited to be working with you and your projects. Let's have fun!

If I was rich, I would definitely buy an exercise pool. Cherie and Tony Blair have just had one installed in their new Buckinghamshire mansion and, after trying one, I am quite jealous. I do hate swimming - it's so boring, and you have to swim in public pools with lots of half-naked strangers who may or may not be quite dirty - but the Riptide Trident Pro exercise pool is fun. It's like a huge bath - it is 6 metres (20ft) long - and pumps out a current of up to 8mph against which you swim. The highest setting, designed to be used by athletes in training, was too powerful for me and I kept getting buffeted against the side, but five minutes of swimming against a gentler current still tired me out. There is underwater lighting, and even cameras so you can watch yourself swim on a screen set up by the side of the pool - perfect for narcissistic celebrities. Even the water tastes nice.
But since I don't have £28,950 to spare, nor a mansion to install it in, I will concentrate on the negative points. It can't be very eco-friendly and costs around £15 to £20 a week in electricity to run, though it is more energy-efficient than a full-size swimming pool because it is insulated. And you only need to change the water - all 11,500 litres of it - once every six months. Eeurgh.
"It sounds a bit grim, but it's not - it has a filtration and sanitisation system," says Stephanie Self, manager of the Chelmsford showroom of the HotSpring company that sells the pool. It sells up to 40 every year; the celebrity chef Jean-Christophe Novelli also has one.
Did she get to see Tony Blair in his Speedos? "Unfortunately not," she says (he didn't accompany Cherie, who went to another showroom). Can you use the pool to have a bath in? "Er, no," says Self. Apparently, bubble bath and shampoo could damage the filtration system. Can animals go in it? (I'm thinking of dogs I know who like to swim.) "We don't recommend it, but we did actually sell one to a lady who used it for her poodle."

Michael W Hanley Cincinnati Ohio
Michael W Hanley Sr purchased this condo in 2012
Purchased in Aug 2012-Close to pool,1 st floor,and only a short walk to the beach
Resurfaced swimming pool and clubhouse as well as new roofs throughout the entire property and newly paved stone driveways. A bayside property(with keyless entry) that has dedicated beach access (crosswalk with light),with security gates. - no worries about driving to the beach!
This was our 26th year staying in Midnight Cove ll. This is such a beautiful, peaceful place it draws us back again and again. This unit was wonderful, comfortable, well appointed , and so close to the pool AND beach. Very nicely decorated. A perfect home away from home. The owner, Michael, was so friendly and anxious to make sure we had everything we needed. We will be back for year 27, God willing !
The location of this condo was amazing. Steps from the pool and just a few minutes across the street to the beach. This condo has everything you need to enjoy your stay and guests are very friendly at Midnight Cove II. I will definitely be a return visitor. Thank you Michael for everything.
This condo was great for our family of four. Having a ground floor condo was perfect for coming in and out of easily after swimming in the pool or fishing off the docks. Lovely view of the bay from lanai too! Being on the intercoastal water way was great to watch the boats and we even saw a dolphin! Beach was an easy 3 minute walk. It was wonderful having some items in the outside closet such as a cooler, fishing rods and beach items. We are sad to leave but would definitely return!!
Why go to the beaches of Mexico, the Dominican Republic or Caribbean, when one of the finest beaches you'll find is right here in the U.S. of A. in Siesta Key, Florida.
We stayed in this two bedroom, bath and a half condo for the first week in June 2016. It has a queen bed in the master bedroom and twin beds in the second bedroom. Since there were only two of us, we did not use the second bedroom. It is adequately supplied with dishes and cookware if prefer to do your own cooking and not go out to eat all the time. There is also an adequate supply of bath and beach towels and plenty of closet and dresser space.
After having a week to contemplate our stay at Mike's condo at Midnight Cove II, a lot of C words come to mind.
Clean - Bedding, bathrooms, refrigerator, oven/stove, entire condo
Convenient - Everything you could want is within walking distance. Restaurants/bars, bike rentals, family grocery, souvenir shops, post office, hardware store, ice cream shop, fish market, etc. The first floor condo is very close to the parking spot and made it very easy to unload and load the car. No lifting/carrying luggage up steps. Just roll it in.
Close - This condo is about as close to the well maintained swimming pool as you can get (but not too close). It also offers one of the shortest walks to the beach of any of the units in Midnight Cove II.
Customer Service - This guy Mike knows a little bit about old fashion customer service. I probably emailed or called him ten times about the rental. Every time his response was almost instantaneous. This was very reassuring.
Coffee and Cocktails - the large screened in back porch overlooking the inlet and docks provides a scenic view and is ideal for quiet morning coffee or evening cocktails.
The warm Clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico are truly refreshing.
After averaging all these C's, we came up with an average grade of A for our vacation to Siesta Key and Midnight Cove II. I would recommend this condo to others and hope to return again.
We just got back from a week in Siesta Key and stayed at this beautiful property. The condo was very updated and clean, kitchen was well stocked, all linens and towels provided. The unit also had beach chairs, a beach cart, beach toys, umbrellas and coolers for your days on the beach.The screened in lanai overlooking the boat docks was my favorite place in the morning. Very short walk to the pool and to the beach. Management at the office was very helpful if you needed anything. We also stayed with two other families who had other units on the property and our unit was by far the most updated. My only wish was that it would have had a washer and dryer in the unit. With my family, I do laundry every day and with the humidity down there, nothing would dry out at night. The laundry facilities were onsite and close to the unit but were pricey. Other than the minor laundry issue, our vacation was great and we look forward to returning to Siesta Key next year.
Nice condo just across the street from the beautiful uncrowded beach and down the road from downtown Siesta Key. Comfortable and quiet accommodations! Micheal was always quick to respond to any e-mails we sent.
The property is within walking distance from local bars, restaurants and shopping. There is a local business called Siesta Key Free Ride that works on tips that can take you anywhere on the key! Our beach was rated #1 in the country and once you see our azure waters and beautiful sand you will see why! You certainly aren't going to want to go home! You may even look for permanent residence!Special discounts may apply,contact owner (seven day stay requested,saturday check in with a Saturday checkout is preferred)

The deal: a Parisian-style drinking den in north London — all flickering candlelight, dark velvet sofas and exquisite, innovative cocktails. There's no sign, so only those in the know will find their way in.
Good for: locals who don't want to travel for a decent cocktail.
Order: the twist on a negroni, Counted But Not Out, made with Chase marmalade and Aperol served with a juniper oil burner to waft a gin scent around the room. Or the margherita, washed down with blue cheese and whiskey spray, all of which is presented on a cheese board.
By the way: soak it up with kick-ass hot dog or mac 'n' cheese at Dach & Sons downstairs.

got the R door, R fender, R rocker in primer last night. I was kind of bummed to realize I didn't even fully sand a patch of mud low on the rocker. Was planning on only priming that area once but I guess I'll have to spot some primer on the rocker later. The door and fender don't need any more primer but will let them sit and kick for a week or two. Also realized the after market L quarter that was installed had an all too common issue...the stamp caused the middle of the wheel crown to be caved in. You can't always find this with guide coat and sometimes it's hard to find with your hands so it's best to use a straight edge for this area. You really need to access this area BEFORE you put mud on it, but at the time I didn't think about it.
Moral of the story, guide coat is just part of the equation. If anything, I'd say a good hand feel and using it when needed is just as important if not more important than guide coat. If this wasn't the case then guide coat would show you everything on hoods and decklids but to get them truly straight you need to put the guide coat to the side and rub your hands all over it in multiple directions. Some guys think it's not an exact science but neither is guide coat, otherwise it would show you the hood/deck isn't straight. The best handtool is the hand itself in body work.

I did a 2011 podcast interview with Albert Mohler, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, about my biography of Patrick Henry. I've done a lot of interviews, but I cannot recall doing one more academically rigorous, or where the interviewer knew so much about my books. I bring this up because, for me, it validates [Read More…]

With four days stretching ahead of you there's no excuse for not soaking up some culture as well as sun and patriotism.
Our prime open air theatres offer different Bardic takes on royalty. Shakespeare's Globe (shakespeares-globe.com) has a Lithuanian Hamlet performed by Meno Fortas, and Much Ado About Nothing in French by Compagnie Hypermobile. The Open Air Theatre (openairtheatre.org) in Regent's Park is, as is traditional, showing Midsummer Night's Dream.
The Inside Out Festival continues around the National Theatre (nationaltheatre.org.uk), with the whole building used as a stage for a performance when the Queen's barge passes on Sunday: but be warned, the South Bank will be rammed. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (lionwitchtheshow.com) might be less crushed, in an enormous tent a mere sceptre's throw from Kensington Palace.
The weekend's new cinematic releases don't have much of a celebratory theme, alas, including as they do The Angel's Share by arch-republican Ken Loach, Ridley Scott's Prometheus, the Top Cat movie and Miley Cyrus in LOL. The Coliseum has the democratic Against Time, featuring streetdancers Flawless alongside the Royal National Ballet (ballet.org.uk) on Friday and Saturday night. The Royal Opera House (roh.org.uk) is at least showing Kenneth MacMillan's The Prince of the Pagodas on Saturday. Kensington Palace is hosting Jubilee — a View from the Crowd (hrp.org.uk), about Victoria's diamond anniversary. The Science Museum (sciencemuseum.org.uk) has assembled pivotal British inventions from the Queen's reign and London Zoo (zsl.org.uk) is exhibiting pictures of Her Majesty with sundry penguins, elephants and so on.
For those with more republican leanings, art-spoof photographer Alison Jackson is showing some of her satirical images using royal lookalikes in a pop-up gallery at 2 Newburgh Street, W1.

hi all ive got a fault code on my car p1167 any1 know what the fault is?many thanks jas.
hi all ive got a fault code on my car p1167 any1 know what the fault is?many thanks jas.
you should get the fault codes read with a BMW specific scanner as PXXXX codes are not as comprehensive, any BMW indy garage can do it for you.
Heated oxygen sensor1 bank1 signal high.
thanks ronnie my cars driving me mad at the mo running flat though all the gears and revs drop that low it on the point of cutting out any ideas?
Cam/crank sensor or splits or airleaks in the hoses.You won't know if its a sensor till you've had it read with a BM specific scanner
hi guys is the cam senser a diy job or not?had the car read and its the airflow meter and the cam senser.
cam sensor should also be easy,you need to know if it is the inlet or exhaust cam sensor that is playing up.
i would replace this first.
and see if fault sorts itself out before u tacke the airmass sensor.
i would also check for persihed rubber vacuum hoses as they can trigger the faults u describe.
jase46 (15-03-2010)
its the inlet 1 thats gone,ive already changed the air flow meter but did,nt make any difference so put the old 1 back on and sent the part back but now i might need it again now just my luck lol.o well i,ll all be sorted this week hopefully.
jase46 (16-03-2010)
cheers had that senser off today quite an easy job like u say,i have,nt replaced it yet i was just checking it out,theres 1 on the far left on the front of the engine block then 2 in the middle and the cam shaft 1 is the 1 on the right hand side is that right?

I've had my 1911 for about 6 months now and while it's performance is steady and very reliable I know there's more accuracy I can get out of it than it's current stock set up. the sights are low mil-spec and the trigger is extremely hard to pull.
I'm going to put a longer trigger and some bigger sights on it. Can someone recommend a couple brands for each that are proven.
I'm aware that I have to have the slide machined for new sights and want to know the average cost of this. Is that trigger all that hard to upgrade?

There's been a theory making the rounds in the media that the New England Patriots could be a perfect destination for former Falcons quarterback Mike Vick.
Previously, we'd brushed off such speculation, since we believe (and we've been told) that Vick will be looking for a place where he can compete for the starting quarterback job.
In New England, that wouldn't be happening — barring another Tom Brady ACL eruption.
But we're now hearing that there could be something to the chatter, primarily since it's appearing more and more likely that Vick won't have many/any options to compete for the every-down quarterback job in 2009.
Under those circumstances, sending Vick to New England for a year could help Vick position himself to become an attractive candidate for another team in 2010.
Of course, this would require coach Bill Belichick to be willing to sign Vick to a one-year deal only. If Belichick goes out on a limb for the man who previously hanged a dog or two from one, the Patriots likely will want to have the option to keep him beyond 2009.
Vick, on the other hand, presumably would like to parlay a stint with the Pats into something bigger and better, as soon as possible.
So if the Pats insist on something more than a one-year contract, Vick likely will look to a team where, come 2010, he would have a crack at unseating the incumbent. The Rams, who reportedly are interested in Vick, might give him the best chance in this regard, since current starter Marc Bulger predates both G.M. Billy Devaney and head coach Steve Spagnuolo.
Vick-To-Pats Theory Gaining Momentum

Derrick says: Jun 12, 2009 6:49 PM
how can VICK sign with anyone, is he not still indefinitely suspended by the league
DarthPirate says: Jun 12, 2009 6:50 PM
As soon as the Patriots sign him they will be praised endlessly for it. Because you know, they're the Patriots!
PackAttack says: Jun 12, 2009 7:00 PM
I think I would rather read about Brett Favre then Mike Vick.
empty13 says: Jun 12, 2009 7:00 PM
well one would have to imagine that belecheat would like nothing better than to jam his version of the wildcat up the fins.
but is the vick baggage and rep and failings as a player all something one can look past… just cause he may have given up dogfighting doesnt mean the other turdiness is all gone.
Insomniac says: Jun 12, 2009 7:01 PM
Didn't Bob Kraft just give an interview saying he told his people if they have to bring in players with off field troubles to compete/win then he doesn't want to be in that business?
LovinBlue says: Jun 12, 2009 7:01 PM
I had no idea that there was a scenario under which my disdain for the Patriots could actually grow, but this is surely it.
Hardrada says: Jun 12, 2009 7:07 PM
Does Belichick actually enjoy the Prince of Darkness meme? I guess we'll have to wait to find out…
angstcafe says: Jun 12, 2009 7:08 PM
Can Vick play LB? I can't see the Pats signing – only because they don't need him – so why waste the roster spot and then deal with sideshow.
jjared1101 says: Jun 12, 2009 7:10 PM
"If Belichick goes out on a limb for the man who previously hanged a dog or two from one, …. "
You really had to say that ?
dickshotdogs says: Jun 12, 2009 7:12 PM
That's right Pirate. Everything they touch turns to gold. Don't forget to draft Fred Taylor, Joey Galloway and Greg Lewis in your fantasy drafts. You'll be a sure fire winner! Heck, you might even want to consider Chris Baker at tight end! 🙂
Scout says: Jun 12, 2009 7:13 PM
Are the Patriots still owned by Bob Kraft? You know, the Bob Kraft who relinquished a draft pick after it was found out he beat his girlfriend? And the one that wouldn't tolerate a special teams star after a domestic violence incident? THAT Bob Kraft is going to allow Belichick to sign a dog killer and have PETA protest his businesses every single day from now on?
Don't freakin' think so.
bluenoser says: Jun 12, 2009 7:17 PM
Yeah, they are going to bring him in to run the Copy Cat.
Right. Like Bob Kraft is going to let that happen. They have an AWESOME offense already and need to build their LB's up a bit first.

I'll admit, even though it was a gimme, that line about him hanging dogs from a limb or two made me chuckle.

If this poor excuse of a human plays one more down in the NFL, it will be a sad day for the NFL because this POS doesn't deserve to play in the NFL.
westclaims says: Jun 12, 2009 7:37 PM
Dead on Darthpirate…it will be a blessing to the whole community, blah blah blah. In fact, if the Patriots really do want him, watch this get pushed through the way Pacman did in little D.
Insomniac says: Jun 12, 2009 7:38 PM
Rough Transcript:
Dale Arnold: How much does character figure in to the acquisition and ultimate signing and resigning of New England Patriot football players?
Robert Kraft: That's a very big part of it. I saw all kinds of situations in my early years. When I hired Pete Carroll and then Bill Belichick, those are the two coaches that I have hired since I've been in the NFL. I said to each of them, the only thing that's important to me. Is that we not have thugs and hoodlums here and if we need that to win then I'm getting out of the business. People in this region of the country are not willing to forgive the way people in other areas of the country are and if we're responsible for bringing someone here to this region who has a past history of abusing women and then they come to this marketplace and do it then shame on us. We want to win but we don't want to win so badly that we're going to compromise certain values. You know when you understand that this is the ultimate team sport. And people are responsible to other people. And we're gonna have our problems that doesn't mean certain things are going to happen but that at the basic core we want good guys, good guys who can subjugate their egos for the good of the team and feel a responsibility to the brand and the team that they're proud to be part of it.

I would love to see Vick play for the Patriots. Better yet, make him a Jet. Just a little more fuel in the fire for the AFC East Champs!
SeanMartin says: Jun 12, 2009 7:45 PM
Hasn't he fumbled it something like 50-70 times in his career? That should scare anyone and everyone.
tj.52 says: Jun 12, 2009 7:47 PM
This makes sense only if you have absolutely no knowledge of the New England Patriots organization. Take these facts into consideration:
1) Michael Vick is not Corey Dillon.
2) Randy Moss did not viciously kill helpless animals for fun.
3) Do not try to draw comparisons to the three, there aren't any.
4) The Patriots have a very popular and widely known personnel policy that states – "we want tough, smart guys who love the game of football". – Vick just does not fit the mold.
5) Bob Kraft wants nothing to do with Vick.
6) Belichick wouldn't want the distraction. He didn't want Terry Glenn, you think he would want Vick?
7) What the hell is Vick going to play? QB? Doubt he could learn the offense (his past dicisions lead me to believe that he may not be very bright). WR? Doubt he could learn the position well enough to outplay the guys on the roster. RB? They already have a guy that likes to duck tackles. (damn, that was harsh)
I see absolutely no reason whatsoever for the Patriots to even consider Mike Vick for a roster spot. Not gonna happen.
BernardPollardIsAnAss says: Jun 12, 2009 7:55 PM
I hope they don't sign him. I know he has done his time but he still makes me want to puke. Tom and Randy don't need this charity case on their hands. Let him rot or play in the UFL.
descendency says: Jun 12, 2009 7:57 PM
What would he do in New England?
We aren't looking for a no talent QB with all the arm and no touch… Can he catch? Can he punt? can he run between the tackles? Can he rush the QB? Can he Tackle or cover?
Tom Brady is the only one throwing passes for this team… so Vick would be what?
ozinsd says: Jun 12, 2009 7:57 PM
He should have been thrown to a pack of angry and hungry pit bulls. This guy is scum.
ctpatsfan77 says: Jun 12, 2009 8:05 PM
The Pats wouldn't start Vick at QB even if Brady ended up on IR again; they'd go with Kevin O'Connell first seeing as he kinda, you know, actually *knows* the Patriots' system. . . .
Florio-is-a-tool says: Jun 12, 2009 8:06 PM
The backlash by the Patriots local customer base would be too great. Ain't gonna happen – at least in this lifetime.
dlcreed says: Jun 12, 2009 8:08 PM
You would have to live in Atlanta like I do to know this but I promise you the minute Vick gets signed there will be Vick crackheads who will want Brady benched, saying his success is all about the system, and argue for Vick to start. Any , ANY, team that signs Vick better prepare for this.
RIRich says: Jun 12, 2009 8:08 PM
With Bob Kraft's well known lack of tolerance for criminals, I can't imagine this story ever truly having legs; it's got to be the fantasy of some bored sportswriter somewhere. And if Kraft somehow made an exemption – though I doubt it would be for the likes of Michael Vick – I can't imagine Bellichik wanting a QB with the baggage and complete lack of skills that Vick brings to the table.
That said, as a diehard Patriots fan of over forty years, I will say that if they do in fact sign Vick I will honestly say that I will have watched my last Patriots game. Period.
I cannot support a team that supports Michael Vick, nor will many Patriots fans.
Too much of a leap for us, can't drink THAT kool-aid.
Diggs2134 says: Jun 12, 2009 8:10 PM
vick is an embarrassment to the league….he should be treated like the dogs he mutilated. And BTW…..he was never a good quarterback and never will be!
DynastyDriven77 says: Jun 12, 2009 8:11 PM
This is a Florio drivin story… No truth to it whatsoever
PJW says: Jun 12, 2009 8:12 PM
What would happen when Vick flips Belichick the double bird?
JakeDSnake says: Jun 12, 2009 8:14 PM
Kraft insists on charitable works clauses in his players contracts. I don't think this happens until Vick has a deal in place with a SPCA in some state…or two.
NoHomeTeam says: Jun 12, 2009 8:18 PM
If — if — he's reinstated and if some team is going to sign him, I think I'd be pulling for the Rams. I'd love to see that team stuck with the ensuing public relations nightmare. Not to mention, of course, the potential for football disaster, both locker-room and on-field.
I'll predict a turnout of about 25 people in the Edward Jones dome at the end of the season.
Nate A says: Jun 12, 2009 8:30 PM
Myra Kraft would divorce Bob Kraft and disown Jonathan Kraft if he they let this happen.
Pastabelly says: Jun 12, 2009 8:30 PM
Florio, Myra Kraft would not put up with the Patriots bringing in Vick. Also, this stuff doesn't work in liberal media centers like Boston. It's a non-starter and a foolish theory. The Patriots already drafted a slash/wildcat type of guy anyway.
mikecal645 says: Jun 12, 2009 8:43 PM
I don't think the Patriots need Vick and I don't think it would ever happen the downsides outweigh the upsides in my opinion. If they did sign him though, I'm sure he could be worked into the system to be an effective asset, I think that locker room would also keep him in line, but if he went to the Patriots he'd know it was his only shot in the NFL.
All that stuff being said, I still think Vick should be reinstated in the league, it wouldn't promise him a contract with anyone. Ray Lewis is still playing in the league and not in jail where he belongs for killing a person or pacman jones or ordering a shooting..
prayforthesaints says: Jun 12, 2009 8:45 PM
mike vick deserves a second chance. yes he killed dogs and yes he did go to prison for 2 years because of it. He has lost everything he owns, and never complained or spoke out against all the crimes he committed. He has pleaded guilty to all charges, and currently does manual labor for very low pay while he has a brick on his ankle. He has to repay thousands of dollars he doesnt have to people and PETA, and plans to do so. Who are we to say he doesnt deserve another chance? Who are we to say he isnt sorry? Who does PETA think they are making this broke man pay them money that he doesnt owe them? He never did anything to them. Those hippies just need to calm down and eat their soy bean chips.
As for Vick to the Pats? Doubt it, he isn't old enough. And Belichik is gonna say the same thing as Payton said, why use a gimmick (the wildcat) if you have a real quarterback? As for the Rams or Vikes, those are much more realistic possibilities.
Personally, I would love to see Vick play again. He made the NFL interesting. I dont ever recall watching him play and not be amazed or entertained, usually mad too, at his skills.
ken13 says: Jun 12, 2009 8:49 PM
Why do people comment on PURE SPECULATION and RUMOR? No one remotely connected with the Patriots has said anything about there being the slightest interest in Vick…..so before all you haters crucify Belichik or Kraft….why not wait until there are actual FACTS…..oh wait…this is the Patriots….facts don't matter……for you haters
juancorsair says: Jun 12, 2009 9:04 PM
Let's look at the facts, shall we:
If Mike Vick possessed even 1/3 of the talent of Tom Brady, Peyton Manning or Brett Favre, I could see a tem risking the PR backlash to give him another chance. Fortunately, Micheal Vick sucks. He can't pass worth a damn and is two years removed from the league and any form of decent diet or training. He was overrated before he went to prison and did not improve while he was in there. Why would anyone sign this guy when QBs with better skills and without criminal records nor media sideshow following them everywhere cannot find work? Is Mike Vick ever going to make Canton? Is he ever going to take a team to the Superbowl? Will he ever have a passer rating over 50??? No, he's not going to do any of these things. So why would the Patriots, Queens or even the Raidahhhs take a chance on this loser???
olcap says: Jun 12, 2009 9:14 PM
This would be perfect for the Cheatriots! And, it would be perfect for all good people who hate cheaters like Bill Belicheat and his ilk, like Tommy Boy, whom we're to think was totally oblivious that the plays broadcast into his helmet and worked every time were not the product of chance, but rather of cheating.
If anything, this would further seal the already ground-in stain of poor sportsmanship this franchise already possesses. And, it would cause Mr. Kraft, who gave his approval to the cheating by not firing Belicheat, to eat his words about not having turds on the team.
Rasputin says: Jun 12, 2009 9:24 PM
They're only floating the rumor so Mangina picks up him.
1stngoal says: Jun 12, 2009 9:30 PM
I think the only thing about this story that makes it plausible is the idea of using him in some "wild-cat" packages.Since the Pat's missed out on Percy Harvin in the draft,this could conceivably be their plan B…..
unclaimedfright says: Jun 12, 2009 9:49 PM
This makes perfect sense. The Cheatriots are the Cowboys of the 90's. A group of thugs who hide behind Superbowl rings because "winning is everything". Vick would fit right in.

Cry me a river! Vick didn't "lose" anything – he threw it all away the day he started Bad Newz Kennels. He only pled guilty because a) both his other co-conspirators pled guilty, and b) the trial would have been incredibly damaging to Vick personally. Could you imagine the testimony of his partners?
As for his financial problems, that just proves he's not very bright. He signed a $130 million contract, and he's beyond broke? Not to mention the millions he stole from the pension fund of the employees of his company – while he was in prison!
I get so sick of the Vick apologists crying about all that he's lost, etc. All of Vick's problems are of his own doing. Further proof that Vick is a complete idiot. And the only thing Vick is sorry about is getting caught. He's still be electrocuting dogs if his two cousins weren't dumb enough to get busted.
JoeSixPack says: Jun 12, 2009 11:26 PM
Probably just Belichick floating a rumor to goad another team's coach into making a major strategic blunder with Vick.
I could see MangIdiot falling for that hook, line and sinker
shuxion says: Jun 12, 2009 11:28 PM
I am a PATS fan (As you all probably know because nobody can stand me here>_<……)
Maybe the Pats signing Vick, getting him some exposure in tight goal line situations raise the value and trade for a 3rd rd pick or something. But that is after I sat there for 30 mins and tried to think of a reason.
And the reason as you can see makes very little sense. I just don't see them signing him. I think he goes UFL, wows a bunch of people (see Lawerence Phillips in the NFL Europe, BTW how did Steve Young like that one) and gets a shot in the NFL in 2010-2011.
He did something sick and disgusting but he did not kill anyone (Leonard Little, and not learn you lesson) he did not beat a woman or have his kid bitten by a dog (James Harrison) which are MUCH more disgusting things to do.. The guy paid his time, he is trying to make a living and deserves a chance.
If you have issues with Vick playing and no issues with Little or Harrison playing then your common sense is severely lacking…….and you probably vote democrat.
On a separate topic, St. Louis sports Radio callers (What we get here in Earth City, MO) is about 50/50 on it.
tdeck39 says: Jun 12, 2009 11:40 PM
Wow shuxion….you make it sound like Harrison had his kid in a cage with the dog and made the dog go after him. It was nothing like that if you had bothered to read any of the stories. The kid's mom let the dog out…..Harrison wasn't even home!!
Dont Taze Me Bro says: Jun 13, 2009 12:06 AM
Listen to the Boston clowns talking about how fine and upstanding they are, how people of New england would never forgive such a person. They're just too classy for something like that.
How does Ted Kennedy keep getting elected? He did, in fact, KILL a woman. But he's a Kennedy so he gets some slack.
Myra Kraft would not put up with it? She seems flexible with employing Bill Belichick, who is a proven cheater both on the field and off the field with other men's wives.
They're also pretty comfortable with keeping Nick Kaczur, who was convicted as part of an international drug smuggling ring, then turned narc to get off.
Rodney Harrison isn't a thug? Yeah, and David Ortiz isn't breaking down after years of steroid abuse.

"I think the only thing about this story that makes it plausible is the idea of using him in some "wild-cat" packages.Since the Pat's missed out on Percy Harvin in the draft,this could conceivably be their plan B….. "
I dunno, but given the choice between (A) Childress pulling a fast one on Belichick, (B) Belichick punking Childress yet again, or (C) the Patriots just not wanting Harvin that badly, I'd go for (B) or (C) long before I went for (A). [If the Pats were dead-set on drafting Harvin, why tell him that, especially if they knew/suspected he might blab to other teams?]
nflhof says: Jun 13, 2009 2:39 AM
I sure hope M Vick can run a camera and make himslef useful to the team and Tom Brady. He will be needed to give them that edge the Pats have needed to win over the past years.
briano29 says: Jun 13, 2009 2:45 AM
If Belichick goes out on a limb for the man who previously hanged a dog or two from one . . . Florio, that line cracked me up. I know it shouldn't have. But I can't help it – its funny.

The most entertaining comments here are from the NE fans talking about how Kraft will never stoop so low as to sign the likes of Vick.
Meanwhile, moral bankruptcy reigns at the head coaching level with the only coach who was fined and lost a #1 draft pick for cheating.
Please stop with the grandstanding and holier than thou pretenses. The Patriots would sign Vick in a heartbeat if he could prove to them that he can video tape without getting caught.

I think that people need to get over that whole spygate crap. Quit your whining because I'm sure whatever team you like has done similar things. Stop pretending like your teams are choir boys and are perfect. Don't hate because our team kicks ass year in and year out. Also, all the people who wanna hang Vick for what he did. That is just ridiculous! Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with what he did at all. However, it WAS dogs, an animal, not a human being! Give the guy a chance to redeem himself before you hang him again. Should he do something again, I'm sure the legal system will not be lenient. People who say that they are not gonna watch another Pats game should they sign him, well, good riddance! You are not a true fan then, so go cheer for another team. Better yet, maybe PETA will hire you.

This will never happen.
If it does, I would be outraged and disappointed enough to write Bob Kraft personally.
But it won't happen, for the variety of reasons already stated above.

Vick is not heading to New England. I seriously doubt that he'll be playing in the NFL at all this season.

Kicking ass as in New England's 2008 record of 18 and DOH!?

@ juancorsair
I can't really discern…is that supposed to be an insult?
18 wins…has your team accomplished that? Come even close?
Maybe you should hold off on bringing that noise until your team…whoever the hell it may be…even cracks 16 wins in a season.
Just a thought.

How does Ted Kennedy keep getting elected? He did, in fact, KILL a woman. But he's a Kennedy so he gets some slack.
He did, in fact, not KILL a woman.

Or as in FIVE years without a Super Bowl title? Hell, if that is what you guys call "kicking ass", you can have that every single season for all I care. Meanwhile, I will keep on celebrating other teams winning the Super Bowl just as I have for the past several years.
BTW, no one really hates your team, Pats fans. We all just dislike you obnoxious fans. Keep up the "good" work. You all have earned every bit of your "reputation" as the lamest fans on the planet.

What good is winning 18 games when you lose the one that matters MOST. And if memory serves me correctly, both the 1985 Bears and one of the Niner teams both finished 18-1 (of course, both of those teams won when it mattered most, unlike the Pats who earned the title of "biggest choke in sports history" in their Super Bowl loss to the Giants.
tdeck39 says: Jun 14, 2009 11:22 AM
Hmmm…18 wins and lose in the Super Bowl, or 15 wins and win the Super Bowl?? I think I'll take the 15 wins and the Championship….thanks!! But, you go ahead and stay proud of those 18 wins…..and the one loss!!

Has anyone every watched a cable show documenting hunters killing deer, lions, cape buffalo, moose, etc., etc……for SPORT??
Just so they can take the carcass to a taxidermist and have the stuffed animal perched on the wall.
Oh….I get it…….the law gets manipulated to bend to the will of certain animal lovers while ignoring the wishes of others…..or is it that the Dog-loving lobby has got enough money and influence behind it that they get to dictate what thye laws say regarding dogs.
Why do we slaughter cows and pigs? Cows have their throats cut out and then they are dumped onto a slaughter house flloor until they pass out.
In China, dogs are killed and then hung for 2-3 days so the meat gets tender before consumption.
Vick has paid his debt to society. He has a right to get back to work. No one says bupkus when a guy beats the stuffing out of his girlfriend or wife and wants to get back to work though.
floyd says: Jun 15, 2009 6:39 AM
Hey Florio,
When you don't have anything to write about can't you just leave well enough alone and just say there is nothing to write about? It would be a whole lot better than making up crap like this. You are pathetic….
Ornan says: Jun 17, 2009 11:44 AM
This story is nothing more than a bad rumor in order to spark interest in a has-been, mediocre quarterback that has no future in the NFL. Any professional team that wastes their time and possible their fan base signing a sluggo like Vick deserves to all the negativity that surrounds him. Like them or not, the Patriots have much more class than that.

Pakistan Air Force and Chinese firm CATIC have signed an agreement for the serial production of JF‑17 (Thunder) aircraft would start soon. Under the agreement the lot of 42 aircraft would be co‑manufactured by China and Pakistan and later these would be inducted in the PAF's fleet. By 2015 PAF will get 250 JF-17s at cost of US 3000 millions. First squadron of JF-17 fighter jets would be inducted in the PAF's fleet by mid of this year as PAF has already been using 8 jointly produced aircraft for the last couple of years. This fleet would be raised in Peshawar. Air Chief Marshal Tanvir Mehmood Ahmed has said "despite all odds we have been successful to reach the stage of starting serial production of the aircraft." "In the beginning we will produce 15 aircraft annually and their number will increase to 30 in a year ‑ this programme will be carried out in phases," he said. He said that PAF will get 40 JF-17 Thunder this year.

Once connected you show up on their "My Connections" list and you can easily send them private messages or e-mails. The more "connections" the better! For instance you may want to connect to everyone in your garden club or your neighborhood. All of your connections can be seen on your Member Profile page (which is pretty cool!). Another great feature is you can see how, and if, and by how many degrees of separation you're connected to other members.
Both parties have to agree to be connected, and you can remove a connection at anytime.To connect to someone new, first log into the Mulch community, then click on "Member List", find a friend you'd like to connect to, click on their name, go to their "My Menu" tab, then click "Request Connection". They will either accept or deny. If they accept you're then officially connected!

[MLS TRANSACTIONS] Could Seattle have found an answer for its goalkeeping vacancy with the acquisition of Stefan Frei from Toronto FC? The Swiss-born keeper is still only 27 and was Toronto's all-time leader in appearances across all competitions (99) but injuries had forced him to miss much of the last two seasons.
"Stefan is a goalkeeper we have liked for a number of years," said Sounders coach Sigi Schmid in a statement. "He is a quality professional who brings
experience and leadership to the position. Adding Stefan at this point of his career was very attractive to us."
Frei's acquisition from Toronto FC in exchange for a 2015 conditional
first round SuperDraft pick comes a day after Seattle declined an option of Austrian Michael Gspurning for the last two seasons.
Frei was selected
as a Generation adidas signing in the first round of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft by Toronto FC out of Cal and considered one of the top goalie prospects to enter MLS in recent years.
D.C. UNITED. D.C. United acquired Montreal Impact captain Davy Arnaud, a 12-year MLS veteran with 48 goals in 297 games, for an
international roster spot for the 2014 and 2015 MLS seasons.
"Davy is a versatile midfielder who has a wealth of MLS experience," said D.C. United GM Dave
Kasper in a statement. "He will add leadership on the field and in the locker room, and we look forward to having him as part of United."

From leather cleaners to tire gels, Pinnacle Natural Brilliance manufactures a product for every square inch of your vehicle - inside and out.
With the introduction of eight new products, including three that are all about glass polishing, cleaning and protecting, Pinnacle is about to once again turn the car care world upside down.
The three new Pinnacle products for glass are:
The Pinnacle of Glass Care
All three products were researched, developed and tested in South Florida - the ideal environment for any glass care product to be perfected because of the torrential rainfall that occurs year round.
Water spots are not difficult to come by in Stuart, Florida thanks to the abundance of sprinkler systems that use well-water as their source. If you park your vehicle at a location that you're unfamiliar with and the sprinkler system goes off, you're going to end up with something like this:

What you see above is a car care enthusiast's worst nightmare. I know Meghan sure was upset when this happened to her daily driver, a 2008 Ford Expedtion EL, better known simply as "the bus."
Leading the way for the new Pinnacle glass care products is GlassWork Water Spot Remover - a pro-strength glass polish that can remove the worst water spots imaginable. It features micro-abrasives and advanced citrus cleaning agents that gently polish away water spots, mineral deposits, bugs, tar, and anything else that will impair your vision of the road ahead. Its non-dusting formula is easy to use and was designed for hand, dual-action and rotary polisher application. What Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing Lotion has done for your paint, Pinnacle GlassWork Water Spot Remover will do for your glass.
I've found the perfect pad to use with Pinnacle GlassWork Water Spot Remover for machine application is a Lake Country Hydro-Tech CYAN Cutting Pad. This heavy-cut foam pad forces product to stay on its face due to the closed-cell design. The polisher of choice for this demonstration is the Porter Cable 7424xp.
Glass polishing is typically very messy, but that's not the case with Pinnacle GlassWork Water Spot Remover. Its formula does not dust and it wipes off with ease. In order to engage the abrasives and the chemical cleaners in the glass polish, you want to apply 10-15 lbs of pressure with your dual action polisher set at speed 5-6. Just like when polishing paint to remove defects, you want to make sure you practice a slow arm speed. Polish the area (no larger than 12" x 12") until the polish starts to turn clear. You can see I put down a tape line to better gauge my results.
I've found that a Waffle Weave Glass Towel works for more than just traditional glass cleaning. It is the perfect towel for removing glass polish as its waffle weave design provides more bite than a thick fluffy towel.
I polished both sides of the tape line and then inspected my results with a Brinkmann Swirl Finder Light.
The before and after is night and day:
Now with the camera flash:

Pinnacle GlassWork Water Spot Remover removed the water spots with ease and it did so without creating a mess. After polishing the remainder of the side glass it was time to protect it, and that's where Pinnacle GlassCoat Window Sealant w/Rain Repellent stands tall.
Rain, Rain - Go Away!
Pinnacle GlassCoat Window Sealant w/Rain Repellent is a glass sealant on steroids. It provides unsurpassed protection on exterior glass surfaces while creating an immense amount of surface tension that causes water to bead up and roll off. Its formula goes on clear and dries without any unwanted haze.
I've found the Lake Country Gold Finger Pocket to be the perfect applicator for Pinnacle GlassCoat Window Sealant w/Rain Repellent. Four fingers fit snugly and it keeps your fingers from getting any unwanted residue on them.
Its as simple as evenly spreading a thin coat and letting it dry for 10-15 minutes. Once it hazes, buff it off with a microfiber towel.
I can see clearly now!
Last, but certainly not least, is Pinnacle Crystal Clear Glass Cleaner w/Water Repellent. This ammonia-free glass cleaner restores optical clarity while imparting a water-repellent coating that causes water to bead up and roll off. Unlike traditional glass cleaners with water repellents, Pinnacle Crystal Clear Glass Cleaner w/Water Repellent is safe on interior glass - even tint.
Pinnacle's new glass care products make cleaning, polishing and protecting glass almost as easy as applying a coat of Souveran on a relaxing Sunday afternoon. Whether you're an avid enthusiast of Pinnacle products or simply demand the best, the new glass care products from Pinnacle are sure to impress.
Don't have polisher? We've got you covered with the Pinnacle Crystal Clear Glass Kit. This kit includes all three Pinnacle glass care products plus the necessary hand applicators to go with them.
