|Intrepid Potash Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Financial Results; Provides Outlook for First Quarter and Full Year 2013; Affirms Progress on Capital Investment Program
DENVER; Feb. 13, 2013 - Intrepid Potash Inc. (Intrepid) (NYSE:IPI) announced 2012 fourth quarter and full year results today and highlighted its progress on capital projects.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Financial Highlights:
1 Average net realized sales price is an operating performance measure calculated as gross sales less freight costs, divided by the number of tons sold in the period.
"Our ability to achieve healthy financial results concurrent with successfully advancing multiple significant capital projects is a testament to the highly skilled and dedicated team of people at Intrepid," said Bob Jornayvaz, Intrepid's Executive Chairman of the Board. "We are unwavering in our commitment to invest in our people and facilities in order to drive shareholder value through the growth of production of lower cost tons while fully participating in the North American potash market. We successfully achieved significant milestones in 2012 on each and every one of our major projects. We began pumping brine into the first evaporation pond at our HB Solar Solution mine in the fourth quarter, and the North compaction plant will come on line beginning in 2013, as expected, allowing us increased as well as more flexible production capabilities that better align with our customers' needs. We paid a special dividend in 2012 reflecting our confidence in the company, as well as in our progress toward our capital investment program."
Commenting on the market, Mr. Jornayvaz continued, "We see favorable trends in the coming year. Specifically, the high commodity prices and low stocks-to-use ratios should have farmers looking to maximize yields through a balanced fertilization approach, which remains a cornerstone to accomplish this objective. Furthermore, our diverse product offerings, marketing flexibility, geographic advantage, and strong customer relationships position us to prosper even in the face of another potentially low moisture season."
Fourth Quarter Results
Income before income taxes for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $28.4 million compared with $35.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $19.7 million compared with $21.0 million in the same period in the prior year. Although average net realized sales price decreased in the fourth quarter of 2012, Intrepid sold 20,000 more tons of potash in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared with the same period in 2011. Cash flows from operating activities were $55.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2012 compared with $44.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2011.
4 Cash operating cost of goods sold and cash operating cost of goods sold, net of by-product credits, are operating performance measures defined as total cost of goods sold excluding royalties, depreciation, depletion, and amortization (and, if applicable, excluding by-product credits), divided by the number of tons sold in the period.
The solid potash sales volume was driven by a robust fall application season and the continued strength of customer relationships. The average net realized sales price was down $10 per ton from the third quarter 2012.
The continued improvement in potash production was driven by the East facility, where fourth quarter potash production was the highest since the first quarter of 2011. This is a direct result of, and a solid return on, the multi-faceted long-term improvement plan. Some operating inefficiencies will result at the East facility as this work progresses, which may impact production levels and cause variability in cash operating cost of goods sold.
Cash operating cost of goods sold, net of by-product credits for potash improved to $180 per ton in the fourth quarter of 2012 from $194 per ton in the fourth quarter of 2011. Cash operating cost of goods sold increased sequentially from the third quarter of 2012, reflecting some of the normal quarter-to-quarter fluctuations that exist due to the mix of production and sales from each of the individual facilities. Each facility has a different per ton cost of goods sold result with the Utah operations having the lowest as they benefit from the cost-effective combination of solution mining and solar evaporation. This underscores the expectation for producing lower cost tons from the HB Solar Solution mine as it begins to contribute meaningfully to production levels in 2014.
Langbeinite - Trio®
In the fourth quarter of 2012, the average net realized sales price for Trio® of $347 per ton was a sequential increase of $11 per ton from the third quarter of 2012. Compared with the prior year's fourth quarter the average net realized sales price was up $60 per ton. This upward pricing trend highlights the value of Trio®, specifically, the value of the magnesium and sulfate components contained in this specialty product.
Pricing and demand for Trio® remain strong as evidenced by the 43,000 tons sold in the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase from the 28,000 tons sold in the prior year's fourth quarter and the 27,000 tons sold in the third quarter of 2012. As demand remains in excess of current production levels, all of Intrepid's Trio® inventory and anticipated 2013 production is expected to be sold in the current year.
Langbeinite production increased slightly from the same period last year, and came in line with expected results. Intrepid continues to focus on the execution of the previously announced East facility long-term improvement plan. Specific modifications to the langbeinite portion of the plant were installed recently and continue to be commissioned together with the rest of the dense media separation section of the plant.
Cash operating cost of goods sold for Trio® was $211 per ton in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $187 per ton in the fourth quarter of 2011. Cash operating cost of goods sold continues to be impacted by the production levels from the facility. The long-term improvement plan and commissioning activities are expected to increase operating efficiencies and are expected to result in incremental production and an associated improvement in per ton cash operating cost of goods sold.
Income Taxes
During the fourth quarter of 2012, Intrepid decreased the estimate of its future state income tax rate resulting in a decrease in the value of the deferred income tax asset and an increase in deferred income tax expense of approximately $5.3 million, or $0.07 per diluted share. There was a state income tax adjustment, for similar reasons, resulting in a tax benefit in the third quarter of 2012 of $4.3 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, making the net result for the full year an additional tax expense of $1.0 million, or $0.01 per diluted share.
During the fourth quarter of 2011, Intrepid recorded a deferred tax benefit of $3.7 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, also as a result of adjustments to the aggregate state tax rate.
In the fourth quarter, Intrepid declared and paid a special cash dividend of $0.75 per share, or $56.5 million.
Market Conditions
The fall application season was in line with expectations and suggests good overall potash demand across North America for the upcoming growing season. Macro trends including below-average yields for the past crop year have tightened stocks-to-use ratios. The result has been historically strong commodity prices for corn, soybeans, and other crops. The belief is that, on average, farmer cash flows from the 2012 growing season were above average due to these higher commodity prices and the benefit of crop insurance. In the upcoming growing season, Intrepid anticipates that farmers will seek to maximize yields to take advantage of the strong profit potential in front of them.
Dealers continue to manage risk by timing fertilizer purchases to meet downstream demand. They are utilizing just-in-time ordering as they seek additional clarity on spring demand from the farm gate. As such, it is a challenge to predict timing of sales and Intrepid's quarterly results may be impacted by this volatility. Intrepid's focus is on the overall delivery of product over the course of the full application seasons and less on the specific monthly timing within the season.
The diversity of the markets served by Intrepid continues to provide a strategic advantage with the feed and industrial markets remaining relatively steady contributors to the overall sales mix.
Capital Investment
In the full year of 2012, capital investments totaled $253.0 million. The strategic capital projects, which are designed to provide the opportunity to increase profitability and cash flows from the production of incremental lower cost tons, continued to progress within expectations.
HB Solar Solution Mine
Construction of the HB Solar Solution mine in Carlsbad, New Mexico, continues to progress. In November 2012, Intrepid achieved a significant milestone when it began pumping potash-enriched brine into the first new solar evaporation pond. Also during the fourth quarter, the mill design was finalized and construction began with concrete pours for the mill foundation. These are major events keeping the original project timeline intact with the first production expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2013 at the conclusion of the evaporation season and completion of mill construction. The total investment is now anticipated to be in the range of $225 to $245 million, which accounts for improvements made to the mill design as well as capital to add additional brine water supply wells. Intrepid believes that these improvements will better ensure the long-term reliability, operating efficiency and predictability of its HB Solar Solution mine. As of December 31, 2012, total capital invested in this project was $128.3 million.
North Compaction Project
Construction of the North compaction project in Carlsbad, New Mexico, began in the second quarter of 2012. This project upgrades the granulation facility and increases its capacity to handle the anticipated production from the HB Solar Solution mine and the expansion of the West facility. Construction remains on schedule with concrete and steel erection work substantially complete and most major equipment in place including the compactors. Total capital investment for the project is still expected to be approximately $95 to $100 million, of which approximately $55.4 million was invested as of the end of 2012. The North compaction facility is expected to have its first and second lines operational in 2013 with the third line becoming operational early in 2014. The first and second lines are designed to handle all of the expected production in 2013.
Moab Cavern System
The addition of new solution mining caverns at the Moab, Utah facility continued during the fourth quarter. The second cavern system has been put into service and development of the third cavern system began in early 2013. These additional horizontal cavern systems are expected to benefit the Moab operations beginning with the 2013 evaporation season. The capital investment associated with the third cavern is expected to be in the range of $20 to $30 million, the majority of which will be invested during 2013.
2013 Outlook
Intrepid's outlook for the first quarter and full year 2013 is presented below. This information is the best estimate at the current time and will be impacted by actual market conditions, results of operations, and production results. Outlook information for capital investment is provided on a full year basis only.
Dave Honeyfield, President and Chief Financial Officer commented on the outlook, "We are committed to investing appropriate levels of capital to achieve our goal of producing incremental tons at meaningfully lower cash costs. We take a disciplined approach to investing capital and extensively manage and review all of our projects underway and in our project pipeline." Mr. Honeyfield noted that the capital investment plan for 2013 includes investments to complete the construction of the HB Solar Solution mine; the North compaction facility; the third mining cavern system in Moab; approximately $50 million in smaller opportunity projects that are geared towards recovery and capacity enhancements; and approximately $50 million of sustaining capital investments. The 2013 capital program is expected to be funded out of cash flow, existing cash and investments, proceeds from the unsecured senior notes funding in April 2013, and possible minimal utilization of the unsecured credit facility prior to the funding of the senior notes.
Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are included in the tables at the end of this release. Average net realized sales price, cash operating cost of goods sold, and cash operating cost of goods sold net of by-product credits are operating measures. Definitions of these measures are included in the footnotes in this release.
Unless expressly stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to "tons" in this press release refer to short tons. One short ton equals 2,000 pounds. One metric tonne, which many international competitors use, equals 1,000 kilograms or 2,204.62 pounds.

The forward-looking statements in this document often relate to our future performance and management's expectations for the future, including statements about our financial outlook. These statements are based on assumptions that we believe are reasonable. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are uncertain.

* On a per ton basis, by-product credits were $9 and $11 for the fourth quarter of 2012, and 2011, respectively. By-product credits were $1.9 million and $2.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, and 2011, respectively. On a per ton basis, by-product credits were $8 for both the year ended December 31, 2012, and 2011. By-product credits were $6.5 million and $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, and 2011, respectively.
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated as net income or earnings per diluted share adjusted for certain items that impact comparability of results from period to period including, among other items, insurance settlements from property and business losses, a portion of the income associated with the refundable employment-related credits from the State of New Mexico, non-cash unrealized gains or losses associated with derivative adjustments, and the effect of changes to Intrepid's state income tax rates on the value of its net deferred tax asset. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share provides useful additional information to investors for analysis of Intrepid's fundamental business on a recurring basis. In addition, management believes that the concept of adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations of companies in the potash mining industry, and many investors use the published research of industry research analysts in making investment decisions.
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or earnings per diluted share, income from operations, cash provided by operating activities or other income, profitability, cash flow, or liquidity measures prepared under U.S. GAAP. Because adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude some but not all items that affect net income and may vary among companies, the adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The following are reconciliations of adjusted net income to net income and adjusted net income per diluted share to earnings per diluted share, respectively, which are the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures:
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (or adjusted EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net income adjusted for the add back of interest expense (including derivatives), income tax expense, depreciation, depletion, and amortization, and asset retirement obligation accretion. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted EBITDA assists investors and analysts in comparing Intrepid's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of the Company's core operating performance. Intrepid uses adjusted EBITDA as one of the tools to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison, and investment recommendations of companies in the potash mining industry, and many investors use the published research of industry research analysts in making investment decisions.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance or liquidity measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because adjusted EBITDA excludes some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities and may vary among companies, the adjusted EBITDA amounts presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The following is a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income, which is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure:

I am in the process of a new outfitand I need to make a small hole into finished fiberglass. I am very nervous as I do not want to ruin or crack the finish.
How should I do this? I was thinking of placing a few layers of masking tape on the finished side of the armor and using a tiny drill bit on the dremel make the hole. Then using gradual sizes of drill bits, keepon working on the hole until I get the right size.
Hopefully, the masking tape will preotect the finish and it won'tcrack.
Any thoughts orideas would be MOST welcomed. :)

The Georgetown College Tennis Tigers continued to perform well in the second day of the USTA/ITA Regional Tennis Championships in Owensboro, KY.
First-year coach Layton Register was impressed by many of his players in the men's and women's teams first action of the fall.
While most are finished for the weekend, Adrienne Bartlett and Haleigh Fellows become the third Tiger double's team to try and defeat Lindsey Wilson's Trina Slapeka and Slaviea Milanovic. The GC pair reached the finals by beating Anita Henestrosa and Gliedys Salazar of Campbellsville. The finals were set for Saturday morning.
Here is how the rest of Friday went.
Bartlett and Haley Hart went onto the courts for their third-round singles matches at the same time and found themselves against tough opponents in gusty playing conditions. Both prevailed. Bartlett defeated Kayla Kelly of Milligan College, 7-6 (3), 3-6, 6-2, while Hart defeated Anita Raez, 2-6, 6-3, 7-5.
On the men's side, Zach Thomas and Jose Baeza earned a birth into the doubles quarterfinals by defeating Joao Sousa and Rafael Sousa of Bethel College. Ben Aspillaga's bid to reach the singles quarterfinals came up a bit short in a loss to Filip Pavlovic of Campbellsville 6-3, 7-5.
All of the women's doubles teams were still in the main draw going into the day, and each would have had to eventually face Lindsey Wilson's Trina Slapeka and Slaviea Milanovic, the No. 1 seed.
The first to go down to the formidable team was Jackie Cobb and Natalie Hill. The other two teams stayed alive. Bartlett and Haleigh Fellows defeated Erica Peterson and Michella Douglas of Bethel College, and Hart and Emily Krick got past Sofia Pacifico and Kelsie Hurrigan of Brescia College.
After the doubles, Bartlett and Hart had to go back out onto the courts for their quarterfinal matches. Bartlett lost to Larissa Akari Miaura of the University of the Cumberlands, while Hart went down in defeat to Courtney Schaub of Cumberland University.
At the same time, Thomas and Baeza started out slowly but then stormed back to almost take down Julien Chennenberg and Alexis DeVilleneuve, the men's No. 6 doubles seed, from Brescia College.
Once Cobb and Hill were unable to overcome Slapeka and Milanovic, the assignment was left up to Hart and Krick. The two played hard but to no avail.

Wawbeek Week-Long Sessions
Youth Session
Kids and Teens ages 7-18 with physical disabilities
June 24 - July 5
July 8 - July 13
For all kids, camp is about being outside, pushing their limits, and goofing around with new friends. For the kids at Camp Wawbeek, it often takes on a much deeper meaning. At camp, each individual's disability disappears. Kids begin to realize what they can do, not what they can't. They start to build confidence, test their abilities, and become more independent.
Transition Team
Young adults ages 16-25 with physical disabilities
July 15-20
Teens and young adults take over part of camp for one session each summer! These campers are bold, adventurous, opinionated and full of life! As they face a challenging young adulthood, trying to find ways to be independent, Camp Wawbeek is a place to test new limits and swap stories with others. Transition campers will stay over night at one of the University of Wisconsin Campuses and explore their accessible housing and programs; visit the Madison Transportation Authority to learn about the public transportation system and top the day off with dinner and a movie. Campers will learn how to organize a night on the town and what is takes to make sure that all their needs are met at the same time. This is a great new way to learn about the transition that parents and teachers are always talking about, but adding the cool twist of camp, recreation and fun; after all, isn't that what young adulthood is all about?!!

A political Christmas?
Practically every year people question whether the true meaning of Christmas has been lost, as it focuses less on the real reason for its being – the birth of Jesus Christ – and much more on shopping, more shopping and parties.
Even though the effect of this decline is much slower in Malta than it is in the rest of the world, as a significant number do still stop and at least think about the significance of what is a religious occasion, there is little doubt that it is sliding.
However, we face another phenomenon to which the rest of the world is perhaps much more immune: the involvement of politics during the course of the festive season.
Never wanting to miss an opportunity to get a firm foothold on the bandwagon, both the Nationalist and Labour parties beg for money in fundraising campaigns just before Christmas. This is distasteful to the extreme.
First, because of the economic climate. Labour tells us we have never been worse off and that darker clouds still await, while the current government is doing what it can to raise revenue from people's taxes.
Given this background, they should be ashamed – though it is noted that shame has little place in politics – to be doing this.
Second, the timing. The Nationalist Party in particular, which presents itself as a party of principle when it suits its needs, is prepared to totally forget the real reason for Christmas as long as it can fill its coffers with people's hard-earned money.
The third reason, however, is probably the most galling. There is only so much money to go round, whichmeans that because of the politicalparties' fundraising campaigns thepeople in need get less than they should be receiving. Leaving aside the very well organised and marketed L-Istrina event tomorrow, which is a symbol of Maltese generosity, many smaller charities tend to suffer as they are overlooked.
Christmas is a time for giving. But that giving should be to the people who really need it, not to political parties. Unless people can truly afford to do both, they are failing society if they give financial backing to the party they support rather than to the needy.
Some politicians too, it seems, just do not know when to give it a rest. They should bear in mind that people do not always want to hear their voice, especially at Christmas time when they have other things on their mind.
Franco Debono should take note. The subject of whether the point he is making is justified can be dealt with on another occasion, but the fact that he chose to make that point on practically the eve of one of the biggest events on the Christian calendar cannot but reveal a sense of misjudgement on his part.
Offices have closed, Parliament is in recess and politicians the world over are taking a few days' break. Whatever he had to say could have waited till the new year.
The public should not allowpolitical parties or politiciansto intrude at this time unless thereis an exceptional reason for doingso, and should in the best mannerpossible – by not giving themmoney or attention – make that crystal clear.
Happy Christmas.

The world number one followed his opening one-under 69 with a two-over 72 in the second round to finish one over par on 141.
"I just didn't quite have it," said Woods after missing the level-par cut.
Woods was level with one hole left but bunkered his approach at the 18th and missed his 15-foot par-saving putt.
The last time he failed to make the cut was the 1998 Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, where he withdrew from the event.
The 29-year-old has only missed the cut twice in his career - the other time being at the 1997 Canadian Open, where he also bogeyed the last hole.
Woods now plans to spend the weekend out on the practice range at his home in Florida.
And the American did his best to shrug off letting his record slip away in windy conditions.
"What is it? Seven years? That's not too bad," Woods said.
"You've got to have some good breaks along the way and I've definitely had my share, but also I've gutted it out at times where, like today, I didn't feel very good.
"I just tried to bandage my way to the finish. I figured it was even par and I needed to make par.
"(The worst thing is) I don't get that opportunity to win the tournament."
Woods' run came to an end not only on a fitting day - Friday the 13th - but also at an apt event.
Byron Nelson held the previous record for the most consecutive cuts, 113, in the 1940s. Woods broke that record in the 2003 Tour championship.
However, Woods' record cut run did include 31 events without a cut, so technically his record stood at 111 cuts in a row.
World number three Ernie Els now has the longest active cut run at 20 tournaments.
The American duo have a one-shot lead over compatriot Ted Purdy.
World number two Vijay Singh is four shots off the lead alongside world number four Phil Mickelson. Ernie Els, ranked third in the world, is a shot further back.

A few of my favorite things: Imedagoze
When Holly invited me to share some of my fave things on decor8, I was surprised and thrilled. I've been out of touch with my fellow bloggers for quite a while now, so it's nice for Holly to remember me. Thanks, Holly! So! Hello everyone. I'm Imelda. I run Imedagoze, a design blog, and koultura ), a newly-launched art blog. My home is a four-bedroom apartment in Singapore, where I live with my husband and two young daughters, 4 and 6.5 yr olds. Nothing big, nothing fancy, only plenty of colors.
The entrance hall is one of my favorite sections of the house. It is where I feel welcomed by seeing things I adore once I get home. On the wall is a painting by Jose Tence Ruiz, a social-realist painter from Philippines. I waited for almost a year to finally find the right piece for me. I love his works, he's one amazing artist. And on the right side of the hall is my husband's recently-bought bicycle, which explains why it's being kept there.
The lounge seat seen in this picture is part of our L-shaped sofa, placed just right next to the balcony. A nice spot for me to enjoy the city and greenery view, or to snuggle with my daughters.
This corner of the study room is where I run my blogs from. So obviously, this has to be my favorite spot too. The study room probably has the most clutters in the house, mainly because I keep some leftover stock and product samples from my past business here. And that's a screenprint by Shepard Fairey on the wall, bought from a gallery in New York. Oh yes, I'm a fan.
Amongst the walls in our home, this is the happiest of all. My daughters love doing art, and both of them proudly paste their works all over the house. And this wall has the most artwork displayed. There are occasionally one or two in the other rooms, but I usually take them down after two weeks and keep them in the children's drawer. This picture says everything about my daughters. They love playing pretend and dress up (see the shoes, sunglasses, and handbag). And yes, they looooove stickers (on their room door and everywhere else in the house), and colors (just like their mom). ;-)
I have stacks of textile collection from a fancy tablecloth, handkerchiefs, tea towels to fabric scraps. Mostly are from Scandinavian countries. In the picture, you can see some of my most loved metered fabrics. I'm so fortunate to have a husband who could live with many(!) of my obsessions.
Other favorite things…Speaking of obsessions, I have to admit that everything started from blogland. Finding one exciting thing in blogland had led me to more exciting things, and made my fascination of art and design grow. I became more attentive to culture, stories, details and originality of every art/design object I see. Next, appreciation came along. And now, I can say that I love everything that is "rich" and well-presented. A photograph of beautiful unnecessary object(s) that has plenty of stories to tell. Movies/performances armed with good picture/screenplay, or great costumes, or great animation, or great humor. Trips to museums, galleries, and design stores. Courage and determination of admirable ordinary people that made them creators, innovators, and leaders in my own eyes. Or, just a simple hand-written/hand-drawn birthday greeting.
There has been some good advise that I've heard and read over the years, but the only advise that has made a significant change in my life would be the advise from my dad, given years ago during my baby blues period of being a new mother. When I shared some of my frustrations with him, he just blurted out a short message to me. He said, "It's just part of life". Short it is, but I thought of it deeply. It somehow made me realize that happiness and hardships are merely the positive and negative "illusions", created by human thoughts and senses. So when I lifted the negative illusion slightly toward the positive one, things didn't feel as hard anymore. It became… just a part of life. Since then on, everything feels much lighter. And I value more the simple moments and things in life, whether they are good or bad. Anyway, a treasured life needs both, good and bad – right?
Well, I hope everyone enjoys my share of favorite things, as much as I enjoy reading other visiting bloggers' favorite things here. Thank you all for reading, and thanks again to Holly for inviting me to visit decor8 while you are moving to Germany. Hope everything goes smoothly there and that you will be back blogging on decor8 soon, Holly! –Imelda

Pilgrim Lee's bedroom details – girly crafty heaven!
Blue velvet couch!
Ikea really need to launch some creative marketing campaign showing creative people and what they have in their Expedit bookcases. Man that is a seriously great idea.
I had the great pleasure of finally meeting the lovely Pilgrim Lee last week at the Calendar Launch! Thanks for coming Pilgrim! It was a little odd to finally meet, because as usual I felt like I already kind of knew Pilgrim from her online persona and emails we have exchanged! Most excitingly, Pilgrim was wearing the most brilliantly colorful outfit, complete with pinky / purple eyeshadow… so brave and fun and really she just looked like one of her own illustrations! (If you don't know Pilgrim's work perhaps check out my interview with Pilgrim earlier this year, and of course her own brilliant website!).
It was no surprise to see this week that Pilgrim's home – like her work and her wardrobe(!) – is a riot of brilliant colour and pattern! If you read her blog (you should!) you will also know that Pilgrim is also a lover of all things vintage…. so much of the furniture you see in her home are pieces handed down through generations in her family – and of course the odd op-shop find! Pilgrim also loves Etsy for handcrafted things, and is such an Etsy expert she posts a brilliant regular segment on her blog called 'as seen on etsy'. I NEVER seem to find where all the good stuff is hiding on Etsy, so it is always to great when someone else filters it down for you!
I just love so many aspects of this super cheerful and fun little home, which Pilgrim shares with her hubbie and young son. Favourite elements include that fab yellow woven wicker bedhead, beautiful artworks displayed above, and the very excellent blue velvet couch in the loungeroom! I am mainly just seriously impressed that Pilgrim has combined so many varied elements in her small home, yet still has produced a really strong and cohesive interior 'look'! I am also very impressed with Pilgrim's man because if I tried to put ceramic bluebirds on the wall above my bed I think that would sadly be met with much boyish hostility!
To add a *punch* of colour to your home perhaps you should visit Pilgrim's etsy store and check out her fabulous range of vibrant prints and artwork!? YES what a great idea. Also her blog is beautiful, you really must bookmark.
Huge thanks to Pilgrim for sharing her home with us today!

The Story (continued)
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)
As the Flyer passes around a curve adjacent to rocks, Sundance jumps onto the center of one of the train cars - a dangerous stunt through the air - and after a moment's pause makes his way forward toward the engine. He jumps into the cab and pulls a gun on the Fireman (Don Keefer) and the Engineer, and orders the train to be slowed. Although initially frightened, the Fireman looks down the tracks and is pleased to see the notorious Butch in person, standing by the side of the tracks: "I'll bet that's ol' Butch himself." He gets off the train to observe: "I just thought I'd watch." Sundance quips: "Bring the kids, why don't ya?"
Outside the express car, Butch implores the agent inside to open it up and avoid getting hurt: "You're just gonna get yourself blown up if you don't open that door." The voice of Woodcock (George Furth), the stubborn, 'patriotic', and loyal agent for E. H. Harriman, the President of the Railroad, resists from inside the car, refusing to risk his job and let the outlaws have access to the safe inside the car. Butch pleads: "Do you think E. H. Harriman would get himself killed for you - Woodcock?" To get at the safe and its money, an explosive dynamite charge blows a large hole in the wall of the railroad car, injuring Woodcock. Concerned, Butch revives the bloodied agent on the floor of the car: "Woodcock, you alright? Hey! Whatever Harriman's payin' ya, it ain't enough." More dynamite is used to open the safe, and although there isn't much money inside, Butch smiles: "Well, just so we come out ahead, that's the main thing."
The nearby town's Marshal (Kenneth Mars) vainly attempts to gather a posse together from an unresponsive audience, but the crowd knows better: "They're probably halfway to Hole-in-the-Wall already...Head 'em off? You crazy? We did that and they'd kill us." The camera slowly pans upward to the second floor balcony of Butch and Sundance's favorite brothel/saloon (Fanny Porter's), where the two sit on the porch - observing, listening, and drinking beers. Butch beams: "Boy, I just eat this up with a spoon." A send-off party is being celebrated for the saloon's piano player, who has enlisted to fight in the 1898 war against the Spanish ("Remember the Maine"). Butch has always dreamt of his own life as being heroic:
Butch: You know, when I was a kid, I always thought I was gonna grow up to be a hero.
Sundance: (pragmatically) Well, it's too late now.
Butch: What'd you say something like that for? You didn't have to say something like that.
After his futile attempts, the Marshal is left without a single volunteer to pursue the famed gang. Inspired by the jingoistic spirit, Butch is excited about the possibility of becoming a genuine military hero in the Spanish-American War:
Butch: Why don't we enlist - go fight the Spanish - you and me in the war? We've got a lot of things going for us: experience, maturity, leadership. I bet we'd end up officers. I'd be Major Parker...
Sundance: Parker?
Butch: Yeah, that's my real name - Robert Leroy Parker.
Sundance: No foolin'?...Mine's Longbaugh.
Butch: No foolin'? Long- what?
Sundance: Harry Longbaugh.
Butch: So you'd be Major Longbaugh. Whaddya say?
Sundance: You just keep thinkin', Butch. That's what you're good at.
Because of the changing times, an opportunistic bicycle salesman (Henry Jones) interrupts the Marshal and draws a more curious, interested crowd to peddle his newfangled 20th century merchandise:
Marshal: Well, whaddaya say?
Bicycle Salesman: (He moves up next to the Marshal) I say this, I say ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, friends and enemies, meet the future.
Crowd member: The future what?
Salesman: The future mode of transportation for this weary Western world. Now I'm not gonna make a lot of extravagant claims for this little machine. Sure, it'll change your whole life for the better, but that's all.
Marshal: And just what in the hell do ya think you're doing?
Salesman: Well, you got the crowd together. That's half my job, so I just thought I'd do a little selling.
Marshal: Well, I'm trying to raise a posse here if you don't mind?
Salesman: I got a short presentation. (To the crowd) The Horse Is Dead. You'll see - this item sells itself.
After admiring the new 'mode of transportation' from afar, Butch is approached by one of the saloon women. Drunken Sundance announces that he will also go "hunting" for a woman - after running down a long list of qualifications: "Well, I think I'll get saddled up and go lookin' for a woman too...It shouldn't take more than a couple of days. I'm not picky, as long as she's smart and pretty, and sweet, and gentle, and tender and refined, lovely, carefree..."
In a nearby part of town that evening, primly-dressed mid-twenties schoolteacher Etta Place (Katharine Ross) with her hair in a bun returns to her farmhouse. [The scene mocks the cliched concept of the starched Western schoolmarm.] She lights a lantern, and undresses down to a white slip as she moves into her bedroom. The Sundance Kid, who has made a forced entry and waited for her in a corner of the room, surprises her there. His appearance - with a grin on his face - causes her to jump back in fright. Sundance commands her to keep slipping out of her clothes for him - at gunpoint:
Sundance: Keep going, teacher lady. (He reaches for his pistol and points it at her.) It's OK, don't mind me. Keep on going. (She nervously removes her outer slip.) Put down your hair. (She reaches back behind her head with both hands. Her hair falls to her shoulders.) Shake your head. (He examines her appreciatively. Cocking his gun, he threatens for her to undo the last remaining bits of clothing. She unbuttons her undergarment, revealing the flesh of her body. Then he unbuttons his holster, rises from his chair and approaches toward her with amorous intentions to force himself upon her.)
Etta: (Unafraid, she watches him approach. He begins to caress her.) (Sadly) Do you know what I wish?
Sundance: What?
Etta: (chiding) That once, you'd get here on time!
It is soon apparent that this is a game. She is his hot-blooded, renegade, twenty-six year old girlfriend - not a demure virgin. They are lovers that know each other very well. She wraps her arms around him as they embrace and kiss.
In a memorable wordless, frolicsome bicycle scene which has nothing to do with the film's plot, Butch appears outside their window the next morning riding one of the salesman's new-fangled bicycles of "the future." His voice, in the tone of melodramatic villains, intones from outside: "You are mine, Etta Place. Mine. Do you hear me? Mine. All mine. Your soft white flesh is mine. Soft. White." Both men vie for the attentions of Etta. His disembodied head (with a Charlie Chaplin-like bowler hat) glides past the window. Etta rises and stands at the front door, where Butch gestures for her to get on the crossbar.
Butch: Meet the future.
Etta: Do you know what you're doing?
Butch: Theoretically.
Butch tries out the latest newfangled invention, with Etta precariously perched on the handlebars, accompanied by Burt Bacharach's contemporary smash hit, the Award-winning song: "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" (sung by B. J. Thomas, and lyrics by Hal David). [The comical-lyrical "Bicycle Ride" sequence is like a music video dropped into the middle of the film.] During the fun ride in the golden rays of the dawn's sunlight, they ride downhill. As she watches from the loft of an old barn, he performs stunts to impress her, and ends up ungracefully tumbling onto the ground.
After their bike ride as they walk back to the house, Etta asks about his plans with Sundance:
Etta: You've come to get him for the Flyer?
Butch: Do you believe I'm broke already?
Etta: Why is there never any money, Butch?
Butch: I swear, Etta, I don't know. I've been working like a dog all my life and I can't get a penny ahead.
Etta: Sundance says it's because you're a soft touch and always taking expensive vacations and buying drinks for everyone and you're a rotten gambler.
Butch: Well, that might have something to do with it.
At the front of her house, Butch lightly kisses her on the cheek, and she ponders their relationship:
Etta: Butch? Do you ever wonder if I'd met you first we'd been the ones to get involved?
Butch: Well we are involved, Etta. Don't you know that? I mean, you are riding on my bicycle. In some Arabian countries, that's the same as being married.
Sundance emerges and finds Butch kissing and hugging her:
Sundance: Hey, what are you doing?
Butch: Stealing your woman.
Sundance: (scratching his butt) Take her, take her.
Butch: Well, you're a romantic bastard, I'll give you that.
The second robbery of the Union Pacific Flyer is less successful than the first. They again encounter stubborn - bruised and bandaged Woodcock guarding the safe in the express car: "Butch - you know that if it were my money, there is nobody that I would rather have steal it than you, but you see I am still in the employ of Mr. E. H. Harriman of the Union Pacific Railroad." A loud, oversized female passenger (Jody Gilbert) protests the delays and bulls her way over to the robbers:
I'm a grandmother and a female and I've got my rights!...You can bull all the others but you can't bull me. I've fought whiskey and I've fought gambling, and I can certainly fight you.
Sundance and Butch pretend to be hurting the woman and imitate her voice, tricking Woodcock to open up the car's door. The inept Hole-in-the-Wall train robbers use too much dynamite to blow up the safe, now reinforced and larger. They blow up the entire railroad boxcar - a startlingly real explosion with a deafening sound and flash of light. [It is a clever reversal of another Western cliche.] After the tremendous blast, they watch the pieces of paper money fly away and flutter around in the wind. Sundance laughingly jokes: "Do you think you used enough dynamite there, Butch?" Gang members scramble around and begin gathering up the loot that blows over the ground. In the distance, Butch notices an ominous black cloud from a second train locomotive and is bewildered: "Now what the hell is that?"
The President of the Railroad has anticipated their hold-up. Following the first train is another locomotive with a boxcar attached containing horses and a posse specifically formed to eliminate Butch and his gang. Before they can gather up the money, a formidable Superposse of a half-dozen men on horseback swiftly exits from the side of the boxcar - cued by the sounding of the train's whistle. Butch gives one look and senses trouble: "Whatever they're sellin', I don't want it!" Several members of the gang are shot down as they run for their horses. Sundance rates their shooting skill as Flat Nose and News are shot dead: "They're very good!" Even though the fleeing gang of four members splits in two directions to evade the determined posse, Butch and Sundance are the ones that are stalked. At the crest of a hill, they are upset that the entire posse is relentlessly following them: "What's the matter with those guys?" Their strained banter during the chase is wryly humorous:
Butch: I think we lost 'em. Do you think we lost 'em?
Sundance: No.
Butch: Neither do I.
To take refuge and hide out, they go to Fanny's brothel in town, where they commission a cherubic, pink-faced Sweet Face (Percy Helton) to provide an alibi to the posse about their whereabouts: "You seen us ride through town not five minutes ago. You do this right, I'll get you an old dog to kick." Sweet Face is positioned across the street on a porch, whittling on some wood. In a top floor room, Butch is caressed by blonde-haired prostitute Agnes (Cloris Leachman), while Sundance nervously looks out a curtained window at Sweet Face. The two fugitives watch with relief as Sweet Face converses with the posse and gestures down the street. Sundance leaves the room as Butch returns to Agnes. From opposite sides of the bed with their backs to each other, Butch removes his boots and both of them undress - Agnes speaks of her feelings for him:
You're the only real man I ever met, you know that Butch? It's not just because of all that money you got to spend on people. It's you. They way you're always looking to see am I happy or not. A lot of the other girls, they might want you just for when you got lots of money to spend on people. Me, I don't care about clothes and money and jewels and furs and things like that. Lots of the others girls do, but I never did...
With the sound of horses' hooves, they are alerted to the return of the posse. Sweet Face confesses and points up toward their window. When their decoy plan backfires, they must hurriedly slip out the second story window and climb down from the rooftops. They quickly subdue one of the posse's guards who is watching the group's horses. While Sundance gets their own horses for a quick getaway, Butch unties the posse's horses from the hitching post and starts shooing them away: "Go on, get out of here, you fat-headed beasts." But the enormous horses stand perfectly still, staring at him flailing his hands wildly in the air. Sundance returns with Butch's horse and warns his partner: "You're the fat-headed beast. Quit shouting!" Butch is dumbfounded that his efforts are ineffectual: "Boy, somebody sure trained 'em." [The sequence is another irreverent twist on Western cliches.]
Through thick dark woods, they attempt to avoid leaving a trail. From the crest of a hill, they watch for any sign of pursuit:
Butch: How long before you figure they're not after us?
Sundance: A while longer.
Butch: How come you're so talkative?
Sundance: Just naturally blabby, I guess.
Butch: I haven't done so much ridin' since I quit rustling. That's a miserable occupation. Dusk to dawn, no sleep, rotten food.
They suddenly stop, faintly noticing a slowly-moving, phantom-like glow in the darkness - they are the torches or lanterns of the posse following their path dead-on. Worried, they whisper to each other: "I couldn't do that. Could you do that? How can they do that?" They repeatedly ask each other the bewildering question - as they look over their shoulders and try to evade the Pinkerton posse:
Who are those guys?
They are endlessly pursued by the machine-like, impersonal, superhuman posse, often filmed with a long focal-length lens, while the two outlaws are frequently filmed in close-up. Certain that he has an infallible plan, Butch proposes that they double up on one horse, hoping that the riders will divide in different directions: "This'll work!" From another high vantage point, they look back at the route of the glowing posse. The glow separates into different paths, but only momentarily. The two glows move back together again into a single force: "They're not going for it. Who are those guys?"

The landlord does not accept the following in this place:
If you're just starting to scan a place to stay but you still don't know where to stay, the best place is one which provides a combination of comfort and location, such as this apartment in Bairro Alto. Well-known for being a lively nightlife hotspot, this famous neighbourhood which is transformed at night, will grant you with the ideal location right in the city centre. This isn't just another accommodation in Lisbon, it's the midpoint between key parts of Lisbon, from several educational sights - being Instituto Superior de Comunicação Empresarial, Instituto Superior de Economia e Gestão, Faculdade de Belas-Artes da Universidade de Lisboa and IADE-U Institute of Art, Design and Enterprise - to many cultural spots and much more. Besides the comfortable and appealing look flat, you'll be near many restaurants, shops, bars and stunning rooftops with stunning views over the river. Plus, if you need to move around the city, there are plenty of transport links nearby. In short, there is only one way to describe this place and location: awesome!
The apartment has four bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. So are you feeling adventurous? If so, this property is definitely the way to go!

At Uniplaces we make the process of booking an apartment as easy as possible for both tenant and landlord.
That's why we have our own team of professional photographers that verify our properties and pick our landlords carefully in order to save time on viewings: we think it's old-fashioned and time-consuming.
You can look at forty different apartments on our platform in the same amount of time that it takes to see a room.
The pictures you see here haven't been photoshopped, so they'll be really accurate.
If you've still got any doubts, we'll keep the money that you transfer us until 24h after your move-in date.
If something's not exactly what you saw online, we'll help you move somewhere else and return your money.
We can only give you the contact details of your landlord after your booking is accepted. But we can guarantee that Uniplaces chooses the landlords it works with very carefully.
Besides, we've had students whose favourite part was living with a local!
Landlords and host families can be great city guides, help you out with translations and even become your friends.
As soon as your booking is accepted, you're given the landlord's contact details. Then, you can discuss all details directly with them, such as when you'll be moving-in.
Students move in and out at different times, so your flatmates might change during your stay.
It's a great opportunity to make new friends!
We personally speak to students who we place in Uniplaces apartments and are sure we will find the right place for you as well!
At the bottom of the property page, you have a calendar where you can see the availability of that room/apartment, according to the landlord.
But if you're still unsure about that we're happy to help.
Tell us your move-in and move-out dates and we will double-check if the place is available for you!
There are two different types of deposits: the Holding and Security deposits.
By clicking on "Deposit" at the bottom of the offer page you will get more information about each type of deposit.
In general, the deposit is paid to cover for any potential damages that may occur during your period of stay or will be used as rent compensation in case you leave earlier than originally planned.
If no damages occur and you leave on the agreed move-out date, your deposit should be refunded by the landlord in a way you both agree on.

baltimore humor for you
I got this in an e-mail at work
I know this is long...but it is sooo funny and soooo true....I love
bawlmer hon!!
First, you must learn to pronounce the city name. It is Bawl-a-mer, or
Ball-tee-more, depending on if you live North or South of Route 40.
Next, if your road map is more than a few weeks old, throw it out and
buy a new one. If near Howard County and your map is one day old, it is
already obsolete.
On Monday you don't wash your clothes, you warsh them. Before you eat a
meal, you don't wash you hands, you warsh them in a zink with wudder.
Forget the traffic rules you learned elsewhere. Baltimore has its own
version of traffic rules... "Hold on and pray." There is no such thing
as a dangerous high speed chase in Baltimore. We all drive like that.
All directions start with "The Beltway"...which has no beginning and no
end, just one continuous loop that locals believe is somehow clarified
by an "inner" and an "outer" designation, raising comparison of the
beltway being the big belly-button of the city.
The morning rush hour is from 6 to 11 AM. The evening rush hour is from
1 to 7 PM. Friday's rush hour starts Thursday morning.
If there is a ball game at either stadium, there is no point in
attempting to go anywhere south of downtown until the following day.
If you actually stop at a yellow light, you will be rear-ended, cussed
out and possibly shot. However, when you are first in line at a red
light, count to five when the light turns green before proceeding to
avoid being T-boned by all five of the drivers running the red light in
cross-traffic.(However, if you don't go as soon as the light turns
green, you get the horn.)
Precipitation causes an immediate 50 point drop in IQ in all other
drivers on the road. Winter precipitation causes an immediate 100 point
drop in IQ.
Construction on I-97 is a way of life and a permanent form of
entertainment. Very interesting that it's called "an Interstate," but
runs only from the Beltway to Annapolis. Opening in 1992, it has been
torn up and under re-construction ever since. (Does Former Governor
Glendenning have any relatives who build highways?)
All unexplained sights are explained by the phrase, "Oh, we're in
GLIMBURNIE! (Glen Burnie)"
If someone actually has their turn signal on, it is probably a factory
Car horns are actually "Road Rage" indicators.
All old ladies with blue hair in Buicks have the right of way. Period.
Even if they are in the left lane of I-97 oblivious to the fact that
the speed limit is 65 not 55.
All roads mysteriously change their names as you cross intersections.
If asking directions in Ellicott City or Columbia, you must know how to
speak Korean. If in Randallstown, ebonics will be your best bet. If you
stop to ask directions in Brooklyn...well, just don't.
A trip across town (north or south) will take a minimum of four hours,
although the tunnel does have, on occasion, more than one lane open, but
never on holiday weekends.
The minimum acceptable speed on the Beltway is 85. Anything less is
considered downright sissy.
The Beltway is our daily version of NASCAR.
The open lane for passing on all Maryland interstates is the far right
lane because no self-respecting Maryland driver would ever be caught
driving in the "slow" lane...no matter how slowly they are driving (see
blue haired old ladies above)
The far left lanes on all Maryland interstates are official "chat"
lanes reserved for drivers who wish to talk on their cell phones. All
mini-vans, particularly if filled with children, also have priority
clearance to use the far left at whatever speed the driver feels most
comfortable multi-tasking in.
If it's 10 degrees, it's Orioles' opening day. If it's 110 degrees,it's
opening day at the Ravens Stadium.
If the humidity is 98+ and the temperature is 98+, it's May, June,
July, August, September and sometimes October.
If you go to a football game, pay the $75.00 to park in the "Ravens
Lot." Parking elsewhere could cost up to $7500 for damages, towing fees,
parking tickets etc.
If some guy with a flag tries to get you to park in his yard during the
Preakness, run him over. It's probably not his yard, anyway.
Very Entertaining!!
Sound's a lot like the traffic I used to run into in DC. I was in the NAVY and ran to DC weekly for what ever reason the chief said. CRAZY people....spooky people....hateful people...except when they got drunk then they were just funny to watch!!
Rat Rods Rule!
Sounds like Atlanta too, only the languages are mixikin and hobo-ebonics. All directions begin with Peachtree Street or the Big Chicken. I285 is our daily Nascar style crash up derby.
Driving in Baltimore is just training for D.C. Once you get used to sitting in traffic for no apparent reason, you graduate to D.C.
That's some funny stuff.
You all southern boys need to take a trip down the Brooklyn Queens Expressway (BQE for short) in N.Y.C. at 3:00am in the morning with bumper to bumper traffic as far as the eye can see. I used to make trips to visit my relatives in Virginia all the time and did most of my driving overnight. You definitely didn't want to miss your exit and get stuck doing a loop around DC.
Makes me miss my old hometown Hon. Today is a great day as my Uncle is coming up from B-More and bringing a couple dozen steamed crabs with him.
Baltimore is cool, because the haircut you had when you were 18 is the one you keep for the rest of your life. 70 year old women with giant beehive hairdos, and old men with Johnny Unitas flat tops. Good old Mob Town. If you are passing through Dundalk, stop by Captain Harveys for a sub and then proceed to Fells' Point for a night of drunken lewdness.
that's a true balamorian speeking i can tell. Not much has changed.
Being in Baltimore, I will vouch for every one of those.
Except for the construction on 97. That seems to be done now.
And yes, if you happen upon Dundalk, and like to eat, go to Captain Harvey's for a cheese steak. You'll be full for a week.
Thanks! I'm gonna borrow that list....

A British Muslim community leader who has advised the NHS and met Prince Charles has been charged with war crimes in his native Bangladesh.
Chowdhury Mueen Uddin is accused of involvement in the deaths of nine teachers, six journalists and three physicians during the country's war of independence in 1971.
The 63-year-old, who was director of Muslim Spiritual Care Provision in the NHS, denies the charges. Today his lawyer said Bangladesh's war crimes tribunal was "hugely politicised" and could amount to a "criminal conspiracy to pervert the course of justice".
Mr Mueen Uddin, who was also vice-chairman of East London mosque, is understood to have fled Bangladesh after the war, which pitted Islamists linked to Pakistan against Bengalis seeking to create a secular state.
The country's embassy and the International Crimes Tribunal in Dhaka said Mr Mueen Uddin had been charged with abduction, confinement, torture and murder, and an arrest warrant had been issued. It is alleged he was in charge of Al-Badr, a notorious "death squad", and "directly took part" in the killing of intellectuals in Dhaka.
He could face the death penalty and the British Government now faces a dilemma over whether to extradite him. Britain does not have an extradition treaty with Bangladesh, and refuses to hand over people to other nations if they are at risk of execution.
Bangladesh foreign minister Dipu Moni said: "Mr Mueen Uddin has been accused of atrocious and heinous crimes. We hope for the fullest support from the British Government."
Mr Mueen Uddin's lawyer Toby Cadman said the allegations "were grossly defamatory, wholly untrue".

Philistine, Your 8.8 kit shipped the day after you paid for it. I wish I had a tracking number here at home for ya....................ahhhhh crap false alarm, Kristie just told me that she sent you a tracking number. This was one of those times that it's cool to bring the secretary (wife) home with ya evenings and weekends.
yeah this trans is great for heavy work, but it lacks the easy going, smooth nature of some other manuals i have driven.
Normally I'd agree on the T56 being frustrating, but it's been in the upper 80s and 90s all week and the trans really loves these temps. I wish my transmission always felt this good.
I wonder if a thinner fluid would help us out. I currently have Amsoil in it.
Dont know what some of you guys are smoking but the T56 has been proven to handle 800RWHP in AWD syclones and typhoons. Thats more torque than you will ever be able to put on it using a CTS-V. Unless you were to completely take out the rear subframe, straight axle the car and tub it with slicks.
Not saying the T6060 trans isnt better but for the cost of a T6060 and the cost to install it really puts you in the same range as these magnum T56's. Plus all that time you save you can relax and drink beer.
Oh and on a side note- most of you on here only have hopes and dreams of having the HP to tear a build T56 apart so dont kid yourself.
While you can build a 700 RWTQ T56 if you've got unlimited money, it's cheaper and more effective to buy a transmission that was designed to handle that much torque from the factory.
Do you thing the T6060 just drops in? Tuning? Driveshaft? Shifter location in the floor? Converting all the plugs?
Dont forget that you will be lucky to find a stock T6060 unit for less then 1.8k:coffee:
The Tranzilla costs $9000--more than double that of a T56 Magnum.
it isnt just the strength, some people just dont like the shift quality of the t56. the t6060 just does that better in every aspect.
I've driven cars with the T6060 and I love it, with that being said, the T56 in my old 03 felt tight and shifted
great. The car dyno'd just shy of 500rwhp and I beat the hell out of it, the transmission just took the beating and laughed. The
half shafts in the rear end are another story...

Dog adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
We believe that there is a special place out there for all unwanted and abandoned ACD's. It is our duty to match your lifestyle with the dog's personality for a "perfect" fit. It is important to us to place the dog that is right for you and your family in your home. Therefore, there are strict guidelines and qualifications that all potential adoptive homes must meet before we place a dog in their home.
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

Rock 'n roll legend Bo Diddley dies in Florida
By Jim Loney
MIAMI (Reuters) - Rock 'n' roll pioneer Bo Diddley, who banged out hit songs powered by the relentless "Bo Diddley beat" that influenced rockers from Buddy Holly to U2, died on Monday at the age of 79.
Diddley died of heart failure at his home in Archer, Florida, his management agency, Talent Consultants International, said in a statement.
"One of the founding fathers of rock 'n' roll has left the building he helped construct," the statement said.
Diddley suffered a stroke during a concert in Iowa in May 2007 and was hospitalized in Omaha, Nebraska. In August 2007 he had a heart attack in Florida.
Garry Mitchell, a grandson of Diddley and one of more than 35 family members at the musician's home when he died at about 1:45 a.m. EDT (0545 GMT), said his death was not unexpected.
"There was a gospel song that was sang and he said 'wow' with a thumbs up," Mitchell told Reuters, when asked to describe the scene at Diddley's deathbed.
"The song was 'Walk Around Heaven' and in his last words he stated that he was going to heaven."
In a career spanning more than five decades, Diddley composed a substantial body of rock classics, including "Who Do You Love," "Bo Diddley," "Bo Diddley's a Gunslinger," "Before You Accuse Me," "Mona," "I'm a Man" and "Pretty Thing." Continued...
