Porsche Plans Audi Q5-derived Cajun. Intel Examined.
by, 10-25-2011 at 12:47 PM (5622 Views)
It's no secret that Porsche is working on a baby Cayenne known internally as Cajun and set to be based on the same MLB matrix used for the Audi Q5 and said to share a fair amount with the four-ringer crossover. No surprise then that the Cajun test mule shown above and running laps at Nurburgring simply wears Q5 bodywork. Of course, there will be differences when Cajun goes to market and perhaps the addition of the Porsche will open new windows for MLB-based Audis and specifically the Q5 as well. CAR Magazine's German correspondent (and our E.F. Hutton) Georg Kacher has filed an intel report on the Cajun. We've run a quick summary of what sticks out to us from the report as well as a link to the original story below.
First up, the Cajun won't share really anything with the Q5 visually. The Volkswagen Group is better than virtually anyone at brand differentiation and the Cajun is said to be 30mm shorter at rear overhang, the roof will be 20mm lower and width jumps 15mm.
Further the Cajun and the Q5 won't even share a production line. Kacher reveals the Cajun will be built in the Porsche Leipzig plant.
More interesting is the engine selection. Familiar Audi powerplants including the 2.0 TFSI, 2.0 TDI, 3.0 TFSI and 3.0 TDI will all be utilized and all receive a roughly 20hp power bump. Even more interesting, a proposed Cajun Turbo S is planned that will use a Porsche developed 350-hp 3.0 liter turbocharged V6.
This last part is most interesting to us. This means the Porsche 3.0 turbo is compatible with the MLB architecture for production. We've heard rumors before (from Kacher) that a 3.0 Turbo might drop in an upcoming derivative of the Q5, a derivative that is being examined because further Cajun body styles are also planned... namely a coupe. Might this 3.0 Turbo become a real turbocharged 3.0 TFSI for Audi as well? All indications seem to suggest that is the case. The Volkswagen Group likely wouldn't green light two twin turbocharged 3.0 V6s for longitudinal use.

Are you using QUORUM for both writes and reads?
The behaviour you're seeing sounds like something I'd expect to see if you used NONE for writes.

ConsistencyLevels directly dictate the level of consistency you will get with your data.

I'm performing tests with Cassandra 0.6.5 with Hector 0.6.0-14 on a single machine (one node cluster). I've noticed an issue with consistency.
In my tests I perform a KeySpace.batchMutate() to update a column and immediately after that I perform a KeySpace.getSlice() on the same column (from within the same thread). I noticed that occasionally I get back the previous value rather than the value I've just written.
My guess is that this occurs because Hector uses pooled connections and both my requests are executed on different connections. I suspect this causes a race condition in Cassandra between the getSlice() and the batchMutate().
Can anyone confirm my suspicions and does anyone have a solution for this?

The solution is filtered off, boiled till free of sulphuretted hydrogen, and ammonium chloride and ammonia added.
It is decomposed by water, with evolution of sulphuretted hydrogen.
The solution, when boiled free from sulphuretted hydrogen, is ready for titrating.
If the white precipitate formed by water be treated with sulphuretted hydrogen it becomes orange-coloured.
The colour is fast to light, but has the defect of being blackened by sulphuretted hydrogen.
Mix quicklime and water to a thick cream, and pass into the mixture 25 or 30 times its volume of sulphuretted hydrogen gas.
The ammonia and sulphuretted hydrogen are almost entirely dissolved by the water used in the gas generator.
Precipitation with sulphuretted hydrogen does not give exact results on account of the solubility of the indium sulphide.
Of course the quantity of sulphuretted hydrogen is calculated from the quantity of iodine employed.
Rising out of the bottom of the gulch is a gas resembling, and which practically is, sulphuretted hydrogen.

So You Want To Do Drag?
Drag queens and kings have had a long, important, and hilarious history in New York City. On this week's Please Explain we'll look at drag performance as an art form, political statement, and popular entertainment with legendary performers Lady Bunny and Murray Hill, and with Joe Jeffreys, drag historian and the organizer of Drag Show Video Verite.
Lady Bunny explained that we're all in some form of drag: "We all create who we are, using accoutrements or haircuts or tattoos…"
Drag in New York goes back to the Dutch settlers, says historian Joe Jeffreys. "The first governor of New York, Cornbury, was politically smeared for being a supposed cross-dresser."
Murray Hill (Clay Patrick McBride)
Drag can be interpreted in many, many different ways. "There's no right way to do drag," Murray Hill explains. "The great thing about drag and the queer community is that we've always been on the fringe. We make up our own rules."
Within New York, there's the more polished, West Village look and the East Village look which has migrated to Brooklyn, which Murray Hill summed up as: "They look like hot messes, but on purpose."
Murray Hill discussed why there aren't as many drag kings as queens: "There's just as not as many drag kings as part of history…There isn't the same economic support as drag queens. There's not the same visibility and culture."
As for the acts themselves, Lady Bunny explains: "A lot of us are bawdy because we work in clubs and when your audience is drunk and it's 1 am, they don't want to see a Laura Ashley bonnet, yodeling for Jesus."

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hello and thanks for trusting me to help you today. I am a tax adviser with over 15 years of experience.Food stamp programs are state specific and while many share the same requirements, I would need to know the specific state to check on their income rules.
Dutchess County in New York. I was wondering why we hadn't heard back and didn't see this question. My apologies. Helen
I replied regarding location. Are you still working on this question? Helen
I have responded to the question asked and have not heard anything further. Do I need to start over? Helen
The couple I am asking about earns $33,000 a year. Part of their income is not claimed on their taxes as their accountant shares that a compensation structured annuity is not taxable income. What I need to share with them is whether they need to put this income down when filing for food stamps. It may make or break their eligibility so that income is very important. The annuity gives them an additional $17,000 a year.Thoughts?Helen
I replied to you that the couple lives in Dutchess County, New York. I have not received a response in 2 hours.

A fundraising drive for an unborn baby whose mother is brain dead in a Victoria hospital has passed $120,000 as the family's plight tugs at heart strings across Canada.
Dylan Benson hoped to raise $36,000 so he could care for his son on his own while grieving for his wife.
"I just wanted to reach out and say thank you to each and every one of you that have read our story and to those who have donated," Benson said
on Tuesday. "We are overwhelmed with the response from not only the community, but now the nation and beyond."
Doctors are hoping Robyn Benson's body can hold out until the end of this month to allow her baby boy — already named Iver Cohen Benson — to grow and give doctors an opportunity to perform a caesarean section.
Benson, who is also 32 and works in the IT sector, wrote on his blog that his wife would have wanted to fight for her child.
"Ugh. I don't know what to do or think," wrote Benson in late December, after his wife was declared brain dead. "She is my rock. She does everything for us and I can't believe I won't get to talk to her again and now if this works, our son will grow up never meeting his wonderful mother."
Last week, Benson wrote that the baby had reached the 26-week mark; he weighed 2 lbs, 6 oz.
The day after he is born will be the day that I have to say goodbye to Robyn
"My head and my heart are constantly playing this chess match and it's so painful. On one hand I can't wait to meet my son and try and give him the best life possible and try my hardest to be a great dad for him, on the other hand I know that the day or the day after he is born will be the day that I have to say goodbye to Robyn."
Robyn complained of a headache on Dec. 28 and asked Benson to go to the pharmacy and get some pain killers, Benson wrote. When he returned home, Robyn was unconscious on the bathroom floor. He called 911, but paramedics could not revive her.
"At the hospital, they discovered that my wife had a fluke random type of blood leak into the centre of her brain and that there was so much blood and damage that it is not reversible," he wrote. "My wife is now essentially legally brain dead."
Phillips, who's been Benson's friend since the pair met two years ago for a random cup of coffee, has started an online fundraising campaign
to help Benson and his son.
He set a fundraising goal of $36,000. By Wednesday afternoon, the site had already raised more than $122,000.
"Any additional funds will not only go towards living costs and the costs associated with supporting Iver, but also towards us moving to a more suitable living space for the two of us, and of course towards an education fund for Iver," Benson wrote on his blog on Tuesday.
"It's a little overwhelming," said Phillips, who works as a marketing manager at a chain of private grocery stores in the Victoria area.
"It's touching everybody at such a deep level. We're having people come into the store and literally breaking into tears. One guy came in with $1,000."
Phillips said Benson is spending his days and nights at his wife's hospital bed. While Benson is deeply touched by the public support he's received, he's not yet prepared to speak publicly, said Phillips.
"I've been asked many times how to put it into words, and I don't know if there is any," said Phillips. "It's one of those things that reaches deep, deep down into your soul and grabs it."
Phillips said the longer the doctors can keep Robyn on life support, the better the odds her unborn son will have.
"The goal is to reach 34 weeks and that is dependent on Robyn's body's stability over the next little while," said Phillips.
"So long as she remains stable on life support, they will bring her to 34 weeks, her and Iver, and that technically works out to the last week in February."

May 1, 2014
It's come to my attention that my blog is now the most-read blog on the internet. Time Magazine has started contacting me to arrange an interview and I'm pretty sure Guinness World Records 2014 already has me listed as Personality of the Year. Fortunately, my draft stock for Major League Lacrosse will not increase due to my fantastic blogging ability, so I won't have to worry about leaving school early and declaring for the draft.
Yet ...
The boys have been doing some cool stuff since the last blog entry -- including Kyle Jackson and Brad Lott being named All-ECAC first and second team members, respectively, Ian King, Andrew Hatton, Rob Zonino and Mikie Schlosser (once again, he's my roommate) were also named to the ECAC All-Rookie Team. On top of that, we have made our first ECAC Tournament appearance in program history. The only negative thing about making the tournament is that it's in the city of "that school down there."
Will all this extra time in the season since we made the playoffs, it's probably a good time to let you know how the team stayed beefy and lean and got through the year:
Buts Nuds -- buttered noodles, a staple of the Michigan lacrosse pregame menu.
Chicken on the bone -- most popular meat served, in what seems to be just about everywhere we go. Also, the least preferred meat.
Rockin' Refuels -- the only thing that gets us jacked up for lift are these little bottles of heaven we get afterwards.
Chocolate milk -- the less desired cousin of Rockin' Refuel. Likely leads to a less driven lift if we know this is the post-workout drink.
Jamwiches -- THE pre-practice snack of choice.
Luna Bars -- always the go-to pregame snack, S'mores and Lemon Zest in particular.
Eat like this and I assure you, you too can be as big as Andrew "Big Sexy" Mosko.
Disclaimer: Even if you eat like this you still might be the skinniest kid on the team like Gerald Logan.
We play No.1 seed Fairfield tonight in the semifinals of the tournament and it is going to be a wild one. We lost to them by one the first time we played (9-8 on April 5) so it's looking good for your Wolverines.
Be there at 5 p.m. to see history happen. (Or, you know, watch on TV, or follow @umichlacrosse for the latest and greatest updates).

text: The question didn't surprise me. After having lived a fairly open, public life through this column for so many years, its not unusual for folks to stop me on the street to ask questions or make comment about something I've written. To be honest with you, that's usually one of the greatest things about this job. It reminds me that sometimes people actually read this stuff, and at least once in a while they think enough of it to carry it around in their memory for a spell. So the question didn't surprise me, but I was a little caught off guard by my own answer."So, John," she asked, "have you gotten a new puppy yet?"It was an innocent enough question from someone who had read, this past spring, of the sad demise of Blaze, my loyal companion of 13 years. She knew me well enough through my writings to know that there would, in fact, be another dog someday; one, no-doubt, filled with enough zip, zap and unrelenting zest to fill many more pages such as this. Knowing me as a huge "dog man" she figured that I had probably taken the next logical step.The truth is, I had thought about another pup, and the family discussed the subject at length, but it will be a while. Blaze left behind his wife, Riley, and an aging stepbrother, Indiana Jones, whose own impending demise would surely be hastened by the arrival of a nutty little "yelpster." Out of respect for Indy, we decided to wait until he joins Blaze in that great land of fire hydrants, rabbit trails, and cow patties in the sky. (The cow patties are for rolling in!)I could have shared that whole, lengthy explanation with my inquiring reader, but instead what spilled out was actually a truth I hadn't even admitted to myself yet: "No, I haven't gotten a new puppy, I've got something even BETTER!"Something better than a warm, furry, wet-nosed, velvety-eared, puppy-breathed, whimperer? How could there even exist such a beast? What could ever surpass the precious joy of holding a young, helpless puppy dog while it licks your chin, sniffs your nose and whimpers innocent puppy things like, "Are you my mama?" The answer is as close as the brand new beagle puppy next door.The pleasures of having a new puppy move into the neighborhood are myriad and manifold. In my own situation, these pleasures are compounded greatly by the fact that the new puppy belongs to my next-door sister, Sandy. In effect, this makes me Daisy's "uncle" and my children, her "cousins." This actually entitles us to greater playing rights than typical, non-related neighbors may enjoy. The truth is we can play with Daisy from sun-up to sundown and no one would be any worse for the wear. Heaven knows the puppy's got enough energy to go around. Now at the ripening age of around four months, Daisy is just about to the point where even the most loyal and loving of puppy owners begin to wish they had bought a goldfish, a lizardeven an ant farm! Back in the days when Blaze and Riley were at their fertile best, I would tell potential purchasers of their offspring, "Know now that you will HATE this puppy for a period of three to six months beginning a quarter of a year from this moment." Only when those potential owners were willing to pledge their unremitting patience and loyalty to their soon-to-be-psycho pet would we allow the purchase to move forward."Don't worry," I'd tell them. "Most puppies grow out of it."And so, for now, and the foreseeable future, I will remain patient with and loyal to my sister's puppy: rubbing her silky puppy ears, tossing her little jingly ball, and scratching that chubby, little frog-belly. But when it comes time for Daisy to chew-up some furniture, dig holes in the back yard, tinkle on the carpet, even lock herself in the mini-van, I'll remember why the only thing better than having a new puppy is having a new puppy next-door.

can bullet affect SD ?
doing a load of playing with loads lately on my .204. Noticed the standard deviation on some sets. On my 39 gr SBK's I averaged in the low 20's, on the 34 gr dogtowns I had 2 sets in the 80's and 1 in the 90's.
It might have been a lack of concentration on my part but I thought I had consistent technique. I saw on a another thread where not holding the rifle tight enough could cause a lot of deviation, I can't say for sure but I don't think that was the issue. I was doing the touch the thumb to the nose trick to endure a consistent cheek weld. The powder was RL10x and was measured on my Chargemaster. Now the decapping pin on my neck sizer broke while I was neck sizing that bunch and it might have been a bit bent earlier. I am wondering if I was getting consistent neck tension. Thoughts?
Also opinions on best neck sizer without breaking the bank ? Currently using a Lee collet which I have been pretty happy with.
I have also read that some use full length sizing each and every time with a bushing incorporated into the die to adjust neck tension. The Redding Type S - Full Length Resizing / Bushing Die seems to be popular. Anyone here doing that ?

Yes, bullets have an affect on velocity SD. The more uniform the bullets the more uniform your SD will be if all else is equal.

thanks Jim, that was what I was thinking. Odd thing is these Dogtowns are very consistent in weight. I will be playing with them more next week. I found 2 good nodes with the RL10x, now to see if I can get consistent results. Only three of the ten five shot groups were above 34 FPS and the rest were in the low 20's and teens do it could have been poor technique on my part
one other question not related to my original but I noticed some bolt stickiness even though I have been pushing the 39 gr SBK's harder. I saw not other signs of pressure but when I got home I was processing the brass and notice I had some whose necks were in need of trimming. This brass was on it's second firing after being necksized. The necks were up to .005 longer than SAMMI specs and wondering if that could have caused my bolt tightness

Without having access to your bullets and rifle to see what is going on I can't give you any real advice on the stickiness other than to play with seating depth to see if the bullets do well with a longer jump.
Or it could just be time to anneal the brass.

Yesterday I was using a .030 jump, I am going take it out to .040 or .045 since that is where it likes the 39 SBK's. 204's like a long jump. Had a couple of other people look at the fired cartridges whose opinion I trust, no one could see any other pressure signs and I am trimming that brass back before I fire it again so we shall see. Anyway one of the nodes that really shot well was at the low end of the charge ladder so that is the one I am going to see if I can fine tune

Yep !
Different bullets, different performances. Very few bullets of a given grain weight made by different compamies in a similar configuration act the same as you have just found out for yourself. The length of the load bearing surfaces can vary quite a bit and will create different pressures as will the gliding metal composition and the sheer thickness of the jackets used in the construction of the bullets. Within reasonable limits dont read too much into SD as a controlling factor for accuracy unless you are an extreme long range competition shooter.

If you are trying to improve SD, several things may be done.
1. Make sure your powder burn rate is compatible with the bullet and its weight. A powder that is too slow for the bullet weight and case size is harder to ignite consistently and will have trouble burning as completely as it should.
2. Make sure your primers are seated hard enough. Failing to set the primer bridge properly causes erratic ignition. In general, you want to see the small primers at least 0.003" below flush with the primer pocket.
A better approach is to measure the depth of your primer pockets and the height of your primers, including the anvil feet. Subtract the latter from the former, then add 0.002 inches. That's the minimum your primer should be below flush with the case head. Federal likes to stick with that number for a small rifle primer, and wants you to add 0.003 inches for a large rifle primer. Remington and Olin, in documents from the 80's, recommended to the military that 0.002" minimum and 0.006" maximum addition should be used. I find if you aim for the middle of that range, 0.004" addition, you generally do well, even with Federal primers. Note that these numbers are just depths that are in addition to where the anvil feet just kiss the bottom of the primer pocket.
3. Uniform the bullet pull force. Polished brass can stick to gilding metal in irregular degrees. Run a bore brush into each sized case neck and turn it a couple of times to remove carbon and lightly scuff the surface. Apply a dry lube, like graphite powder suspended in alcohol, inside the neck with a cotton swab to prevent brass-on-gilding metal bonding and to uniform the friction of the bullet release (note, this can affect your sweet spot load, so be prepared to adjust it).
4. Find each bullet's favorite seating depth. This Berger procedure for their VLD's is something to try, though in the little 20 caliber you may want to reduce the adjustment steps to 0.020".
5. If you're worried about hard holding, read this. Practice, practice, practice.
In general, a free recoiling (like floating in space) rifle's rearward velocity at the moment the bullet leaves the muzzle is just the muzzle velocity divided by the ratio of the rifle weight to the weight of the bullet plus about 40% of the powder charge weight (the portion that chases the bullet down the bore). This is due to Newton's second law of motion which says the momentum of the gun and all forward traveling ejecta must be equal and opposite at that moment the bullet base arrives at the muzzle. So if the bullet is going 3000 fps and the gun weighs 1000 times more than the bullet, then the free recoil velocity of the gun at the moment the bullet gets to the muzzle will be 3 feet per second. That's as much as it can affect muzzle velocity. Far more influential are the powder position in the cartridge, the barrel temperature, and whether or not your bullet goes through the chronograph screens perfectly parallel to the axis between the screens.
6. Chronograph setup. High readings, low readings, and erratic readings can all can all be caused by bad lighting conditions and, most of all, failure to set the instrument far enough back to avoid muzzle blast triggering. We had one board member with a .338 Lapua Magnum that had to set his chronograph back 18 feet before his readings settled. Based on the size of your cartridge, that much shouldn't be required, but you are asking for trouble if you use less than 10 feet with a rifle other than a .22 Rimfire. I use 15 feet normally, just because that's what the SAAMI standards screen midpoint is.
Your use of the Lee Collet Die is just fine. I combine them with the use of a Redding Body Die for shoulder setback and which leaves the neck alone. This makes sizing a two-step operation. If you can't stand the extra work, then a Redding S type FL sizing die with bushing or a similar device in another brand would combine the efforts into one. Just be aware that where the Lee Collet Die is immune to neck brass thickness variation the bushings are not, and you will want to segregate your brass by lot and history for the purpose of choosing the most appropriate bushing size for the job. The bushing die with no bushing and no expander in place can serve as a body die. It just costs more to get into the bushing dies.

Bullets can cause variations in SD, especially in light calibers since many light bullets are too short to touch the rifling in a long chamber an still have any appreciable amount of bullet in the neck.
If the bullet has a short body and has a pretty long tip, it might not have a full caliber equivalent left to fit in the neck if you seat it out to get close to the rifling. Seating such a bullet close to the rifling might could cause variations in the neck seating pressure since there would be a smaller amount of bullet body touching the neck and a greater chance for neck tension related pressure variations. That gets even more exacerabated by a boat tail bullet since the rear boat tail portion won't be touching the neck either.
Neck sizing tension probably can cause more variation in SD than a few 10th of a grain of powder.

some good advice here guys thank's.
Interesting info on the primers Unclenick, I started priming this load on my LnL but it did not like my Winchester cases and I ended up using the RCBS hand tool on it, however there were 4 or 5 that I started on the Hornady but finished with the hand tool
as you can see from the range sheet there is not a lot of rhyme or reason although the groups with the higher standard deviation in a couple of the groups also had the higher group sizes
I would love to get these to shoot consistent .5 groups. I shoot the .204 for long range practice becasue it is so inexpensive even with the SBK's but getting the bullet cost down another couple of cents each would be even better
22.0 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3637 FPS SD 65 FPS .6 group 22.5 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3721 FPS SD 18FPS 2 inch group with one a inch to the right and another 2 inches low 22.7 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3735 FPS SD 22 FPS .5 group 23.0 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3754 FPS SD 34 FPS .5 group 4 were in .2 range with one flyer 23.2 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3757 FPS SD 88 FPS .8 group 23.4 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3764 FPS SD 94 FPS .9 group 23.6 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3774 FPS SD 22 FPS .7 group 23.8 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3842 FPS SD 85 FPS 1.0 group 24.0 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3875 FPS SD 22 FPS .3 group 24.2 RL10x 2.00 OAL 3878 FPS SD 22 FPS .8 group

I run into inconsistent progressive priming on Dillon's, too (though a 1050 can be set up to a fixed primer depth). The best priming tools cost most. You can adjust the Sinclair hand tool to protrude a fixed 0.004" to .005" above flush with the case head, then just drive all the way home each time. The K&M primer/gauge tool is even more elaborate, zeroing each individual primer to the individual primer pocket into which it will be seated, then letting you read the exact amount of bridge set on the dial. Slow going, but maximum repeatability of the bridge set.
If you want to avoid further investment, though, Dan Hackett wrote in the Precision Shooting reloading guide that he had simply taken to seating primers "hard". Probably not crushing them to the point of distortion, but pretty hard. He claimed that even with long cases like those based on the .30-06, he'd been able to get standard deviations down to under 10 fps when doing that. So that would be the first thing I tried if I were in your shoes.

thanks Nick, I normally just use the hand primer on all my rifle except the .223 plinking stuff. Just got lazy the other night. Thought something was out of adjustment or something but it just did not like those Winchester cases at all It primed a Hornady .204just fine as well as some Lake City .223. I miked the case rims and they were fine, one of those darnediffiknows

Gregory lets McConnell mischaracterize CBO analysis of health bill's effect on uninsured
Research ››› ››› JOCELYN FONG
David Gregory did not challenge Sen. Mitch McConnell's claim that "according to CBO," the House Democrats' health care proposal does not "dramatically ... decrease the number of uninsured." In fact, CBO stated that the committee bill "would yield a significant increase in the number of Americans with health insurance."
During the July 19 edition of NBC's Meet the Press, host David Gregory did not challenge Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's (R-KY) mischaracterization of the Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) analysis of the effect of the House Democrats' health care reform bill on the number of people without health insurance. McConnell claimed that "according to CBO," the House Democrats' health care reform proposal does not "really dramatically ... decrease the number of uninsured." In fact, in its July 17 analysis of the House bill, the American Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009, CBO stated that based on the specifications of the legislation provided by the committee staff, the bill "would yield a significant increase in the number of Americans with health insurance." Specifically, CBO concluded that by 2019, the number of "nonerlderly people without health insurance would be reduced by about 37 million, leaving about 17 million nonelderly residents uninsured."
From CBO's July 17 analysis:
The legislation would establish a mandate to have health insurance, expand eligibility for Medicaid, and establish new health insurance exchanges through which some people could purchase subsidized coverage. The options available in the insurance exchange would include private health insurance plans as well as a public plan that would be administered by the Secretary of Health and Human Services. The specifications would also require payments of penalties by uninsured individuals, firms that did not provide qualified health insurance, and other firms whose employees would receive subsidized coverage through the exchanges. The plan would also provide tax credits to small employers that contribute toward the cost of health insurance for their workers.
Collectively, those provisions would yield a significant increase in the number of Americans with health insurance. By 2019, CBO and the staff of JCT [Joint Committee on Taxation] estimate, the number of nonelderly people without health insurance would be reduced by about 37 million, leaving about 17 million nonelderly residents uninsured (nearly half of whom would be unauthorized immigrants).
From the July 19 edition of NBC's Meet the Press:
GREGORY: Do you think it's a moral issue that 47 million Americans go without health insurance?
McCONNELL: Well, they don't go without health care. It's not the most efficient way to provide it. As we know, doctors and hospitals are sworn to provide health care. We all agree it is not the most efficient way to provide health care to find somebody only in the emergency room and then pass those costs on to those who are paying for insurance.
So, it is important, I think, to reduce the number of uninsured. The question is: What is the best way to do that? The proposals over in the House, according to CBO, and not only aren't paid for, they don't really dramatically increase the -- decrease the number of uninsured.
GREGORY: [Sen.] Ted Kennedy [D-MA], a driving force behind health care legislation -- Senator Kennedy obviously suffering from brain cancer. He's on the cover of Newsweek magazine. He's written an essay.

A short 7 day cruise to Bahamas: Norwegian Breakaway Cruise Review by Bosse_A
Overall Member Rating
A short 7 day cruise to Bahamas
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: New York (Manhattan)
We stayed on starboard fore in cabin 9716 which had something larger balcony.
The cabin was quite tight and if my wife was in the closets , I could not get there in grung of the bed was positioned quite close to the closets .
Our friends stayed in 9718 and it was reversed and thus better disposed .
This ship has " frestyle " cruise and it means that you eat at any time and dress anyway.
We are used to more taditionell style and prefer this .
The food was good class and the shows were of the highest caliber. However, one has to pay extra for such as a circus show. Similarly , there were more special restaurants that cost extra
We have never in our 8 previous cruises seen so many overweight people who came down with the electric chairs to take their meals.
Norvegian has a private island called More Great Stirup Island. Where did we go to the big boats that could take 200 people. The water was good and fine beathes. I snorkeled and photographed some fish with my GoPro camera.
Termination from the cruise took place smoothly because we could take our bags ashore ourselves Less

Morning Commentary
Reid Rattles Market
Knowing the market was on pins and needles, Harry Reid gave stocks a nudge, sending the major averages spiraling into the close. It didn't take a lot of words, but they were the kind that sent investors scurrying for the exits.
People are spending like there's no tomorrow. The good news is they are chilling on the credit cards, but tallying huge cumulative fees with the debit cards. But what the heck, either the world ends tomorrow or the government will pick up the tab as long as I'm not too successful.
Another sign people are living for today is the stock market. The market is poised to explode to the upside. I saw many true breakouts yesterday, where stocks closed at new 52-week highs on substantial increases in volume. The shorts are on the run as Monster Energy (MNST) and Green Mountain (GMCR) are up on real news, instead of down on negative hype and bogus short propaganda. Considering how much would-be investors have stayed away for years, and another spike in selling (see table) that could be fear ahead of the cliff, and it is easy to see why they think stocks are vulnerable, but under the right atmosphere they could take over.

I wonder if some people are saying tranny in general terms but the dealer actually only did a mechatronics swap? Maybe they are getting whole rebuilt units because the dealer doesn't want to deal with the hassle of tearing into the tranny case and instead just drop it and put whole rebuild in?
My tech told me that having an actually gear issue is an extreme rarity. The mech unit does most of the work changing the gears. There's a bunch of valves and a whole lot of electronics that are always working. They usually don't do anything to the gears on rebuilds anyway. They usually rebuild the valve bodies and seals and that's what the mechatronics is.
I'm glad more and more people are getting good results with complaining about this and getting the right fix. I hope they are all logged in and BMW starts to take notice of the problem. It's got to be something with this ZF tranny because a number of us all have the same issue.

NIH is implementing a competency management initiative to assist the organization in managing its human capital resources. To effectively capture what staff needs to know as well as how they demonstrate their knowledge and skills.
Using the Competency Dictionary and Competency Models
To begin, select applicable competencies from the Competency Dictionary or start with one of the suggested Competency Models .
What is a Competency?
Competencies encompass knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs), combined with other personal characteristics such as values, initiative, and motivation that contribute to successful individual and organizational performance. Competencies are not only about what you know, but how you apply what you know. Competencies are supported by key behaviors that describe ways the competencies may be demonstrated in the workplace. Competencies are frequently grouped together into competency models.
Competencies should:
- Define expectations, not tasks.
- Provide clarity through measurable and/or observable knowledge, skills, abilities, characteristics and behaviors
- Provide maximum flexibility to respond as job functions, roles, and technology evolve.
- Describe the work of an organization.
Why Invest in Competencies?
The workplace and the workforce are changing; leadership must consider what is essential for staff to achieve the organization's mission. Staff must think differently and have a broader focus. Competencies help align individual behaviors and skills with the strategic direction of the organization.
How is NIH Using Competencies?
NIH is using competencies to better define organizational and individual requirements and to:
- Identify hiring needs proactively based on competency gaps
- Find the most appropriate pool of candidates
- Clarify expectations of a position
- Assist employees in creating Individual Development Plans (IDPs) based on self assessments to target development that links to organizational goals.

A hamstring injury to the presumptive fifth starter, Jerome Williams, could open the door for another pitcher in camp, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said Sunday.
Earlier, Scioscia said Williams would have plenty of time to get ready for the season. The team won't need a fifth starter until April 15. Doctors told Williams not to exert himself for at least two weeks, meaning he wouldn't start his throwing program until around March 18.
If Williams begins the season on the disabled list, rookie Garrett Richards is the most likely candidate to replace him, but Brad Mills, Eric Hurley and Trevor Bell are all in the mix as well.
"We're hopeful that [Williams] will still be in contention for that fifth starter spot when it comes around, but we're not sure right now until this injury starts to progress," Scioscia said. "Hamstring's are funny and hopefully it'll progress and get to where it needs to be."

The Origins of Bubbles in Laboratory Asset Markets
Lucy F. Ackert, Narat Charupat, Richard Deaves, and Brian D. Kluger
Working Paper 2006-6
May 2006
Download the full text of this paper (306 KB)
In twelve sessions conducted in a typical bubble-generating experimental environment, we design a pair of assets that can detect both irrationality and speculative behavior. The specific form of irrationality we investigate is probability judgment error associated with low-probability, high-payoff outcomes. Independently, we test for speculation by comparing prices of identically paying assets in multiperiod versus single-period markets. When these tests indicate the presence of probability judgment error and speculation, bubbles are more likely to occur. This finding suggests that both factors are important bubble drivers.
JEL classification: C91, C92
Key words: bubbles, asset markets, judgment error

Facebook fourth-quarter earnings and revenue increase sharply on ad revenue
By Barbara Ortutay, AP Friday, January 31, 2014, 12:01 am TWN
NEW YORK--Mobile advertising accounted for more than half of Facebook's total ad revenue in the final quarter of last year, a sign that the social network born a decade ago in the desktop computer era is succeeding in its goal of being "mobile first."
Facebook's earnings and revenue handily surpassed Wall Street's expectations for the third quarter in a row as it further expands the number of users and the amount of money it makes on mobile ads.
"If 2012 was the year where we turned our core product into a mobile product, then 2013 was the year we where we turned our business into a mobile business," CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a conference call with analysts. "I expect 2014 will be the year where we begin to deliver new and engaging types of mobile experiences."
Facebook Inc. said Wednesday that it earned US$523 million, or 20 cents per share, in the October-December quarter. That's up from US$64 million, or 3 cents per share, a year earlier. Adjusted earnings were US$780 million, or 31 cents per share, in the latest quarter, 4 cents ahead of analysts' estimates.
Revenue grew 63 percent to US$2.59 billion, from US$1.59 billion. Analysts, on average, had expected revenue of US$2.35 billion, according to FactSet.
Facebook's stock soared 12 percent in extended trading after the results came out.
Facebook Inc., which turns 10 years old next week, had 1.23 billion monthly users worldwide at the end of 2013. Of those, 757 million signed in at least once a day, up 22 percent from a year earlier.
Monthly mobile users stood at 945 million, up 39 percent. Daily mobile users grew 49 percent to 556 million.
Fifty-three percent of Facebook's ad revenue came from mobile during the quarter, up from 49 percent in the third quarter.
Facebook continues to grow its share of the worldwide digital advertising and within that, mobile advertising market. It reaped nearly 6 percent of the world's digital ad revenue in 2013, up from 4 percent in 2012, according to research firm eMarketer. Online search leader Google, meanwhile, accounted for a 32-percent share of the market in 2013.
When it comes to mobile ad spending, Facebook accounted for an 18 percent share of the total amount companies spent in 2013, according to eMarketer. That's up from 5 percent a year earlier.
Facebook's stock jumped US$6.41 to US$59.94 in extended trading. The stock had closed the regular trading session down US$1.61, or 3 percent, at US$53.53 before the earnings announcement.
Through Wednesday's close, the stock had gained 51 percent in the past six months, far more than the 6.4 percent increase for the Standard & Poor's 500 index, which the Menlo Park, California, company recently joined.

Posted by Gene Leganza on April 29, 2010
Ask people what makes May a noteworthy month, and many folks in the northern hemisphere will wax rhapsodic about its being the peak of springtime. Others might mention Mothers' day. Ask Forrester's IT analysts and they're pretty sure to immediately blurt out "IT Forum!" IT Forum -- the conference formerly known as GigaWorld -- is our biggest IT conference as it brings together all our IT analysts and about a zillion of our customers in all the IT-based roles for whom we do research. Each major IT role gets a separate track of research -- that's 10 tracks this year. It's essentially a week of non-stop analyst-attendee interaction in various forms. It's intense for both analysts and attendees and easily the most stimulating week on my calendar. At least, on my business calendar (wouldn't want you to think I don't have a life!).
Posted by Gene Leganza on April 6, 2010
A basic question we're frequently asked is: What is the difference between architecting and designing or, alternately, between architecture and engineering? Most people who ask this question have conflict in their organizations regarding which IT role does what, and it often comes down to which project artifact is whose responsibility.
For most organizations, the ambiguity between the responsibilities of the project-related architect (which Forrester refers to as a "solution architect" -- see Leverage Solution Architects To Drive EA Results) and a senior engineer is largely an academic issue. For most organizations what matters most is identifying and sourcing the individuals with the appropriate knowledge and skills and making them available to mission-critical projects. The availability of senior technicians on the projects is what often determines the level of detail in the design supplied by the solution architect.
The exceptions to the "most organizations" mentioned in above are the large-to-very-large engineering shops, such as the largestUS federal government civilian and DoD agencies, and large private sector organizations that do major engineering projects such as Boeing. Organizations that have over 1000 individuals in the development environment and launch multi-year $100M+ IT projects have closely defined project roles and do what is necessary -- including extensive external contracting -- to source the appropriately skilled individuals. In these environments the "it depends" argument is not sufficient and a clean delineation of role tasks and deliverables becomes necessary.

Having never created a milestone thread throughout my time here, I think now is an appropriate time to do so. Why? Well, hopefully to motivate and show GraphicRiver newcomers, that with a bit of creativity, open mind, and marketing, you too can achieve such goals with just a few items.
I've recently hit 1,000 sales, was awarded a silver paw, and referred 500+ members.
As 2011 makes way towards a new year, I'll most likely be rebranding and putting more time and effort into creating some fresh new items. As authoring is currently a hobby, it sure would be a delight to take this more seriously, but most of the time, as many of you know, our primary jobs don't always allow it.
Thank you for the good times.
Congratulations dude. you deserve it
Wow! Congratulations mate!
Love to see when authors reach such great milestones like this one!

A study conducted by Bristol-Myers Squibb and AstraZeneca found that adding an investigational compound to an existing Type 2 diabetes treatment may help reduce blood-glucose levels among patients.
A drug currently under clinical development for Type 2 diabetes produced "meaningful" reductions in blood sugar, according to results of a late-stage clinical study.
Marsh Supermarkets is offering a new program for patients with diabetes, according to the Indianapolis-based chain's website.
A controversial GlaxoSmithKline drug for treating Type 2 diabetes no longer will be available through retail pharmacies as of Nov. 18, the Food and Drug Administration announced Wednesday.

Gas Furnace will not ignite after line purge - please help.
I have a problem. I just replaced a leaky isolation valve on my furnace and it will not start back on.
Its a York furnace, gas. I purged the line a checked for leaks, everything is good, but then I tried to turn it on and the furnace turns the ignition on, which creates a buzzing sound, but no ignition. It says hat it has a intemittent electronic pilot.
In any case, what should I do short of calling a technitian? It was working fine before I disconnected the line. Thanks for any help.
OK, found out that it is a honeywell s86E electronic ignition pilot with valve. It looks like the igniter which looks like a spark plug works fine, but the pilot light wont come on...maybe the valve wont open, but I have no idea what to do, I tried to reset the pilot light as per manual instructions but still not light...any ideas please.
It can take 6 or more trials for ignition as you may have some airlock in the gas line right at the valve which needs to purge thru the small pilot line. Try it some more times. Make sure the knob on the gas valve is in the ON position and that you did not disconnect any wires to the valve or loosen them. Did you turn the gas back on at the meter?
Depending where you purged/bled the line at. You can still have air in the line that the gas valve has to get rid of before the pilot or main burners can light. This can take several ignition cycles as Yuri said.
Hey, thanks so much for the replys!
Ok so more precisely its a s86e intermittent pilot light control module with a 2094 model gas valve. The valve is atleast 10 years old...no manual
I have already tried to reset and light the pilot light about 4 times already, with letting the ignitor run the spark for atleast 30 seconds at a time. Should I keep trying?
I purged the line at the valve/union connection earlier, and connected the union. I then tried multiple times to get the furnace started, it didnt happen so far. The switch on the valve is ON, i believe. The pipe between the union the valve and the burners inside the furnace is quite long. I read in the control box manual that the valve should have an automatic shutoff when air is present in the line, infact I think as soon as the furnace tries to get the pilot lit, I hear a click in the valve, which I think means it closes.
So another question is that I cannot find the manual for the valve online only for the control box, I was hoping there were some kind of instructions on how to maybe purge the valve, because there is a tap screw on the back of it by the thin line that feeds the pilot.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
In the meanwhile I'll keep trying:)

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Head Coach Rich DeSelm will lead his University of North Carolina women's swimming and diving team into the championship phase of its season beginning Wednesday with the annual Atlantic Coast Conference Championships at the Greensboro Aquatics Center.
Action begins Wednesday night with a single session at 6 p.m. and continues Thursday through Saturday with sessions at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m.
Carolina will be seeking its first ACC championship since 2007 and its 17th title overall. Carolina has finished second each of the last five years. The Tar Heels have been the most consistent program in conference history, winning 16 titles and finishing second 16 times in 34 years of league competition. The Tar Heels have never finished lower than third.
The Carolina lineup will feature a bevy of returning conference champions. Junior Stephanie Peacock has won the 500-yard freestyles each of the past two years. She also won the 200-yard freestyle and 1650-yard freestyle in 2012 when she was named the Most Valuable Swimmer of the ACC Championships. Redshirt junior Carly Smith won ACC titles in the 100- and 200-yard backstrokes in 2011 when she also swam on championship 200-yard and 400-yard medley relay teams. Senior Katie Nolan swam on both of those winning relays in 2011 and she also captured a title on the 400 medley relay in 2012 along with sophomore Danielle Siverling.

The attempted assassination of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto is apparently just one story in a never ending violence which is enveloping Pakistant. While Pakistani security forces attacked a cleric's stronghold, nearby insurgents kidnapped eight police from a bus. About 2,500 soldiers took part in the assault on cleric Maulana Faziullah's stronghold which is one of many such encampments where insurgents are trained to conduct attacks on Pakistan soldiers and society. Residents observed security forces firing rocket propelled grenades, mortars, and other weapons at the cleric's forces. Militants carried out the ambush of the soldiers and fired on a helicopter carrying a general. Yesterday, a suicide car bomber hit a truck carrying troops and killed 19 soldiers and wounded 35.
The violence continues unabated in Pakistan raising fears if the present Musharraf-Bhutto alliance is capable of restoring some semblance of law and order to the nation. Benazir Bhutto claims to represent the moderate middle ground in Pakistan that wants democracy and a government capable of stimulating the economy and providing work opportunities for the masses. In her previous shot at being prime minister, Bhutto used the office to help family and friends accumulate millions of dollars through corruption. Has she learned anything during her exile? Is she capable of creating a government of the people and for the people?

Trying to find something that my dog will 'like' to pee on. We live in an apartment, she's supposed to pee in the house, and that's what we want, as long as it's in her designated pee area.
She does pee in the pee tray (over a grate), but only does it in the tray once. If it is not cleared, she will do it somewhere else (on the floor). If there's poo on the tray, she'll also opt to pee on the floor. I tried pee pads and she can try to squeeze 4 puddles on 1 pad, but if nobody's home she will shred it. She loves shredding pee pads. Newspapers are fine for her too, but then we have problem with tracking.
I'd like to try cat litter (absorbs pee, can't be shredded, soft gravel like surface which she might prefer to pee on). Is it safe for dogs?

Contacting jeep australia
Hi All,
Does anyone know how to contact Jeep Australia via email?
Re: Contacting jeep australia
I'm keen to know as well. I ordered a new Overland CRD two weeks ago which is to be built and when I asked for the "E" number today the salesman from Leo Muller advised that they don't give it out any more under strict instructions from Jeep Australia. Sounds like bull to me but i'd like to confirm this with Jeep Australia before calling him on it.
Which leo muller dealer? We bought through them and after a bit of prompting they gave us our E number.
