3 reasons you should snack on popcorn
By Penelope Wall, May 11, 2010 - 11:47am
A few years ago, I bought a hot air popcorn popper at a yard sale for 25 cents. It was one of the best investments I ever made. On the way home, I stopped by the grocery store to pick up a bag of popcorn kernels—for less than the cost of a bag of potato chips—so that I could pop a batch of fresh, hot popcorn right away. That was the beginning of my love affair with popcorn.
Now I'm obsessed. I keep a bag of popcorn kernels on hand for whenever I need a quick and easy snack. While I do love a little butter on my popcorn every now and then, I eat popcorn a lot. So to keep it healthy (and delicious), I experiment with different flavor combos: Parmesan cheese and cayenne (an EatingWell staff favorite), rosemary and olive oil, cumin and chili powder. The options are endless and if you skip the butter, popcorn is more than just an inexpensive tasty snack: it offers some pretty fantastic health benefits, too, according to a recent story we published in EatingWell Magazine.
Here are 3 reasons to dust off your air popper and get popping:
1. Three cups of popped popcorn (what you get by popping 1 heaping tablespoon of kernels) equals one of your three recommended daily servings of whole grains and contains 3 grams of fiber. (Find out how eating more fiber-rich foods could help you lose weight.)
2. That same 3 cups of popcorn will only cost you a mere 105 calories—provided you don't add butter.
3. Gram for gram, popcorn boasts three times more polyphenols—antioxidants linked to improving heart health and also to reducing cancer risk—than kidney beans (the highest vegetable polyphenol source) and four times more than cranberries (the best fruit source), according to recent research out of the University of Scranton.
What's your favorite popcorn topping? Tell us what you think below.

Brian Grafton
Architecture Student
Akron, Ohio, United States
My name is Brian Grafton and I have recently graduated from Kent State University with my Bachelors degree in architecture and environmental design. I am actively seeking a summer internship to further my education as well as earn professional experience and develop valuable connections with talented individuals and firms. I am the most passionate about commercial architecture, especially on higher education facilities, and would enjoy working in an environment focusing on these areas of design.
Cooked breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily in addition to cooking for breakfast buffets and special events on weekends. I was trained to cook using a grill, deep fryer, and pizza oven, with minor experience in bartending.
Required to draft a first and second floor plan of a an expansion for a bed and breakfast. Planned a series of proposed doors, windows, and a new staircase sufficient enough for the client to meet with contractors and attend budget meetings.
My daily taks included cleaning and rebedding horse stalls, as well as supplying each stall with fresh grain and water. During Hay season I moved and lofted hay as needed.
Supervised Boy Scouts, and provided program and activities during the week of summer camp. Additionally led daily flag raising and closing ceremonies and acted as master of ceremonies for the closing bonfire.

We try to have adequate furniture and appliances in all the homes. If you would prefer to bring and use your own things, please notify the leadership so we can properly store the furniture that you remove from the apartment. If there is something you need or want, please let us know and we will try to locate it.

I have a full Injen cold air intake, some people like them some people don't - i'm one of the people that doesn't. I've had an open ECU tune and the guy couldn't get the right settings for this intake and its making my check engine lights come on. I'm working on buying a stock intake or SPT.
I've been told its a nice upgrade for an STI or if you are capable of tuning it right for your WRX? It looks like a really nice intake, but it just wont work for me.

To win reelection Gub'ner Dumpl'n is going to have to show a much greater degree of political savy than she's ever demonstrated before. Having a Republican legislature to use as a foil is ony useful if she knows HOW to use it. I imagine she's getting plenty of advice from people much smarter than herself (Tony Rand?), but it's a long way to November 2012 and she's going to have to make a lot of very tough shots between now and then to have a chance.
I'm willing to bet she can't do it.

Gothic 1 Goodness

Gothic 1 Goodness
October 19th, 2011, 18:01
With the recent release on Gog.com which offers a point-click-and-start approach to Gothic 1 on Windows 7, last evening I decided to buy the game and fire it up - mostly to just see it run and wax a bit in nostalgia.
Well, that was about 14 hours ago and I just stopped playing. I've done what I haven't done in the longest time - I pulled an all nighter. For this crime I will have to suffer the wife's /rollseyes for the rest of the day and somehow muster enough willpower to stay awake for the rest of the day and muddle through the inevitable uptick of chores that wifey is sure to assign me - punishment for behaving so childish.
But it was worth it. I only played G1 one time when it first came out. For years I have been obsessed with G2 and NotR and mostly forgot about G1. But this game just oozes with RPG goodness. It's hard. The quests are anything but cookie cutter. Exploring is fun because if you look carefully you find stuff you NEED.
Aside from the controls, what a spectacular game. I am having so much fun with it.
If I'm right but there is no wife around to acknowledge it, am I still right?

On their way to you today, as promised. I haven't made my official list yet but I'll certainly be growing eggplant, red onion, yellow squash, zucchini, cucumbers, tomatoes, Anaheim peppers and the 'Seven Beans'. I grew all these last year so I'd like to add one new thing to my list for this year, just haven't decided what it will be yet. CB

Bound By Flame - Preview @ MMORPG
MMORPG posted a short preview of Bound By Flame based on a demo from GDC 2014. The tone of the preview is positive which is good news as the game is available in May.
Bound By Flame has a massive world to explore. There are four full chapters and about 25 hours of game play. There are lots of enemies to fight of all different types. Monsters, undead, evil necromancers are against you at every turn. The game has a full day and night cycle which can bring about different encounters as the times change.
The real highlight in Bound By Flame is the action combat. It moves very quickly and is very fluid, and fans of The Witcher series will definitely be pleased. The game can be played on the PS4, XBox 360, or PC when it launches in May. We really liked what we saw with Bound By Flame. The dark fantasy setting and demonic spell effects really add to the grim reality of the world. Playing as a mercenary also adds some bravado in how you go into all of your encounters. There may be a lot of RPGs in the works, but Bound By Flame is definitely one to keep an eye on.

Setting: Fantasy

Mayhem # 1793191
About MeHey i'm Maryah!! Currently, i'm located in new caney, tx. I'm looking to build my portfolio so it's as diverse as possible. There's many different "characters" I can play and i'd like them all to show at some point. I take critism well and learn from it.
I have many tattoos, all tasteful and well placed. I also have my rook and bellybutton pierced.
I'm open to new ideas. I will not shoot nudes, the few shoots i've done completely nude were curiosity bumps; my curiosity is cured and I've found I don't enjoy shooting nude. Please respect that. I will do implied nudes, but not completely nude. I have the right to review all of my photos to make sure nothing is showing. If this is a problem, please don't bother contacting me.
I'm willing to travel, but if it's long distance I, 1) have the right to bring a guest (unless we've talked and otherwise planned) who can be used to hold lighting or whatever you need and will keep their mouth shut and 2) gas cost must be split, if it isn't a paid shoot.
TFP is accepted, should I love the idea we're doing. Please don't get an attitude if i'm not interested.
So, now that that's laid out =) lets have some fun!

variable dimension of domain of integration
Consider the function $f(n) = \int_{{0,1}^n}
\sqrt{\sum_{i=1}^{n} {x_i}^2} dx_1 ... dx_n$.
How would you define a mathematica function
F[n_] (using NIntegrate) that computes this
integral over the n-cube? I can think of several
inelegant solutions; but surely there are neat
ways of doing things of this sort...

First the awesome news... I qualified as a Sharp Shooter on my first shooting match ever.
Even better was the fun that I had during the comp. There was a great gentleman that took me under his wing offering excellent coaching advice and generally good conversation.
The volunteer Safety Officers ran a great match. Very clear instructions and very patient with us newbies (happy to report that there were at least a dozen of us.)
Pistol - Walther PPQ in 9 mm.
I can't wait for a real match. That was a blast!

no eye protection, no hearing protection. FAIL
I started my kids shooting when they were about eleven, then only if they wanted to, and wore their hearing and eye protection. They can learn the rules and respect for a weapon very quickly. I was active LEO for many years and my duty weapon hung on a hook in my bedroom when not in use. All of my kids knew how to shoot it, clean it, respect it, and leave it alone. I still shoot with my kids and grandchildren and it is always an enjoyable day at the range.
Kid's too young, imo. Unless that's an airsoft or bb gun or something. That would also explain the lack of eyes and ears.
-- Luck favors the well prepared.
My daughter was in kindergarden when she started shooting my P01. The one time that she forgot to lock her elbows and got a hot brass down her shirt she locked back the slide and dropped the magazine out of the weapon before telling me "I don't like your gun right now daddy!" I guess it depends on the chils and situation. She will be getting my Taurus 85, with pink grips added, for her 9th birthday.
I see nothing wrong with it. Maybe some eye and ear protection, that's all.
Trust in God and keep your powder dry
"A heavily armed citizenry is not about overthrowing the government; it is about preventing the government from overthrowing liberty. A people stripped of their right of self defense is defenseless against their own government." -source
She maybe a little too young to shoot but I'm not her dad.

Hitler once said, The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerers who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing.
My 12 year old started shooting when he was 10. He will shoot my XD45 or Kimber TLE but he prefers the 9mm CZ PCR. He will go through ammo like candy if I don't keep a close eye on him. He can load the mag, rack the slide, and flat wear it out.
My 8 year old started shooting the Ruger 22/45 when he was 6. He still prefers the .22s but will shoot a 9mm when his brother teases him!
My favorite Christmas present this year was a candid picture of me and my sons out shooting on the day after Thanksgiving. I didn't even know the person had taken the picture. They had it blown up to a 8X10, framed it, and suprised me with it for Christmas!
Looks like a win to me. All of mine (5 of them in total) learned to shoot at about that age.

Maybe our friend amorris19 got something about Dow Chemical's CEO Andrew Liveris being a candidate for Energy Secretary after all.
Dow just announced today its own energy plan for America, something like what T. Boone Pickens has been doing before the election but much more expanded to other than just renewable energy.
According to Dow, volatile natural gas price in the past 20 years have resulted in a net loss of 120,000 chemical industry-related jobs in the US and more than 3 million jobs in the manufacturing sector.
"The U.S. is on a course to spend more than $500 billion per year to import oil — nearly the amount authorized one time for the financial rescue package recently passed by Congress," said Liveris "At Dow, we believe a new comprehensive energy policy is critical to the overall economic health of the nation."
Here are some of the key points from Dow's energy plan that seems interesting to me:
- Voluntary green building programs and long term extension of tax incentives for energy efficiency and renewable energy
- Congress to allow the nation's Outer Continental Shelf for oil and natural gas exploration and production.
- Cost sharing program in the development of alternative and renewable energy. Extension of renewable energy production tax credits. Elimination of ethanol subsidy (in order to use ethanol as alternative feedstock to chemicals and plastics). Making R&D tax credit permanent.
- Any cap and trade programs should not penalize fossil energy used as feedstock. Prevent movement of US production overseas that do not have adequate climate policies.
- Accelerate deployment of nuclear power.
Of course most of these benefit the chemical industry, what do you expect? But Dow did admit that something has to be done with the climate change issue, and that carbon cap and trade is not so bad as long as its design will not undermine US companies' competitiveness to those whose countries do not have strict greenhouse gas emissions regulation. With the economy at the topmost agenda for the new administration, it's a sure bet that the government will be careful in preventing more US companies going offshore.

Rebirth is the first episode of the seventh season of Futurama, and the first episode of the series to air on Comedy Central. The episode is counted as the 89th of the series.
Plot Edit
Fry walks in the lab where Farnsworth is and asks him why his hair is frizzy, also why he is covered in burns. Then the Professor explains what happened after the final movie ended. He explains that the wormhole they pass through to escape Zapp Brannigan was actually the Panama wormhole, a sort-of "Comedy Central Channel" for shipping. Unfortunately, the Nimbus goes through too and began to fire on the Planet Express ship, damaging it. Fearing that they may crash, the crew activates their safety spheres. However, Farnsworth's sphere covered his whole body while everyone else's shielded only their heads, in which is because the professor was selfish. They then crashed, as well as the Nimbus, right by Planet Express, with only Fry and the Professor surviving, while everyone else became skeleton from the neck down. He drops them in the machine filled with stem cells, which he had plucked from healthy adults he had murdered himself, in an attempt to revive them. As a result, everyone comes out regenerated. Zapp is not dropped in and is still hanging but he is still alive despite having most of his body become a skeleton. Bender experiences difficulty with his rebirth, with his power supply being shot. Therefore, Farnsworth attaches his new doomsday device in Bender's chest cavity. However, the device's output is too powerful for Bender's body. He has to burn off the excess energy as fast as it's produced, like continuously partying, otherwise the energy will build up and he'll "explode and kill everyone here in a fireball of melted gears and splattered bowels!"
Fry then tries asking Leela out for a date, only to notice that she hasn't emerged from the birth machine. When she does, she doesn't wake up, even to the Professor's poking stick. Sadly, Leela is in an irreversible coma. Fry, depressed about Leela's state, goes to a Build-a-Bot store and builds a robot Leela. However, it doesn't act like her, so the Planet Express crew uploads her memories and appearance, taken from security camera footage. The robot Leela acts like her when she was last alive but soon finds out about her robotic nature when a hostile Nibbler takes a bite at her arm, exposing her wiring; she freaks out for an entire day. Uncertain about herself, robot Leela and Fry decide to just be friends.
After determining that the real Leela can't be wakened (due to repeated attempts with hitting and noise), the crew travel to the planet with the Cyclophage's preserve. Here, they attend Leela's funeral and read out her last will: her corpse is to be fed to the wild Cyclophage in the event of coma. As the beast approaches, Bender's incessant and inappropriate behavior, causes Leela to wake up to tell him to shut up. Leela is initially relieved, before she sees robot her and Fry kissing. After escaping from the Cyclophage, which latches onto their ship, they return to the base where the two Leela's confront each other and Fry. They both scold him and run away in anger. Later that night, Fry proclaims his true motive for returning Leela as a robot, while the real Leela listens on, hidden away. She forgives him, only to be interrupted by the Leela-Bot. The two Leelas fight each other, which the entire crew comes to watch. Amy passes Fry a ray gun to choose which Leela to shoot. Both Leela identify which one is which but Fry is slow on the uptake, at which they both call him an idiot. Fry then puts the gun down, refusing to shoot, only to accidentally shoot himself, revealing himself to be a robot.
The Professor explains Leela didn't die during the crash due to Fry's body shielding her. Farnsworth tossed his remains into the birth machine but nothing happened. Distraught, Leela built a Fry-bot. Unfortunately, the robot Fry experienced a malfunction due to Leela putting too much copper wadding in its stomach, resulting in it being burned and Leela being electrocuted, erasing both of their short-term memories. The Professor retrieved Leela's remains for rebirth, just as the robot Fry walked in on him.
It is then that the real Fry pops out of the machine. The robots then declared that they love each other and shed their skins and leave, speaking in Terminator-like voices. The real Leela is more confused over what just happened. Fry assures her that he will wait for her eventually. Bender decides he is fed up with constant partying and begins to vibrate with the excess energy. The Cyclophage suddenly emerges, and attempts to eat Leela. Bender's severe vibrations cause one of his eyes to fall out, and the Cyclophage swallows him, believing Bender to be a cyclops. The device explodes, killing the creature. Bender emerges intact and the Professor declares that Bender expended his excess energy. The crew leave in order to celebrate, and Zapp Brannigan emerges from the birth machine saying wheeee.
Ongoing ThemesEdit
Real life pop culture references Edit
Bender, Fry and Leela visit studio 122133. Mathematically 122133 is 54, which may be reference to Studio 54 which was a popular New York nightclub from 1977 to 1981.
- The entire crew except Farnsworth are killed, as well as Zapp and Kif. Their bodies are revived via Farnsworth's stem cell vat. They seem to remain the same persons that they were before, that is, they aren't obviously zombies or anything strange.
- Leela made Robo-Fry and Robo-Fry made Robo-Leela. Both robots spend some time believing that they are the originals. Twice during this episode, Robot-Leela can be found musing on the meaning of identity and the nature of consciousness.
- When Farnsworth finally tells the whole story and Leela learns that Fry is dead, she says, "My god, I can't believe I'll never see that particular Fry again."
- The new Fry who appears at the end of the episode isn't as simply revived as the others are. Their heads stayed intact, so they are presumably the same persons as before. Although Fry's head did not stay intact, all the components of his brain necessary for his "rebirth" did, as evidenced by the fact that the revived Fry retained his memories and personality. He, too, is therefore the same person as before.
Fry and LeelaEdit
Fry and Leela pick up where they left off in the previous episode, only more so. When Fry proves to be unrecoverable, Leela is so grief-stricken that she creates a robot-Fry. This is a surprise, given Leela's historical cool-headedness about their relationship. Perhaps losing him has intensified her newly warming feelings for him. It is no surprise that robot-Fry creates a robot-Leela.
Fry appears not to changed much: he shows more than once and finally announces explicitly that he loves "any" Leela. Robot-Leela turns out to be slightly more cool-headed than Leela: Leela was so grief-stricken that she created a fake Fry, while robot-Leela wants to cool their relationship while she tries to sort out her confusion over her own identity.
Fry expresses his feelings more vehemently than ever before, saying, "I love Leela, always and forever." Hearing Fry say this, Leela unambiguously expresses love for Fry for the first time.
Fry shows that he has in fact grown a little, when, after the robots run away together, he tells Leela, "I waited a thousand years for you. I can wait a little longer." This is precisely the sort of thing Leela has always been hoping to hear: a sign of maturity with a touch of romance.
Character ArcsEdit
Farnsworth pronounces "whooping" correctly.
Injury, Dismemberment, DeathEdit
- At the beginning of the episode Fry is covered with horrible burns, and nine of the eleven major characters are dead and hanging gruesomely over a vat of stem cells. As we learn later, although these crewmembers are "revived" in some sense, this Fry is a robot, and the real Fry is dead.
- Zoidberg cuts off Hermes' "umbilical cord".
- Bender's antenna pokes Fry in the eye.
- Bender dies for a moment.
- Leela spends some time in a coma and a euthanasia/memorial service is held for her.
- Bender causes various unspecified injuries on a dance floor at a bar and is thrown out onto his back in the street.
- Leela's comatose body takes a beating in Farnsworth and Fry's final attempts at reviving her.
- The two Leelas have a karate fight over Fry.
- Robot-Fry accidentally shoots himself in the chest with a ray-gun.
- Excessive vibration causes Bender to drop one of his eyes when he decides finally to stop partying.
- Bender explodes inside the cyclops eater, apparently killing it.

" H " has taken over all Effects Jobs, really? when and where?
As far as I concern most of large studios are using Maya with custom versions of Bullet for dynamics effects or use commercial plugins like Pulldownit or Rayfire for destruction, also many users of Houdini actually uses Realflow for fluids becouse it is currently much more powerfull and flexible than the limited fluids in H.
Houdini has a good node-based UI for procedural tasks, it is dificult to learn but powerfull, but aside this, regarding dynamic solvers and render there are much better solutions outhere, beliaveme, indeed SideFx have integrated Bullet free solver in the latest version 12 of Houdini, just becouse the native rigid bodies in H are as slow computing as Maya built-in rbds and I suppose they were loosing sales becuose of this.

I'd like to touch on the topic of virtual living in Second Life once again. You see, I've been dealing with this crazy inner battle where part of me wants to leave my virtual life behind to focus only on real things, while another part of me believes that the relationships forged and moments shared inside the virtual world are real and that my avatar is a part of me. Some people find it very easy to distinguish, differentiate and balance the real with the virtual but I seem to lack some perspective.
A friend of mine told me that the way I perceive things are often incorrect and that I lack some much needed perspective. I've come to realize that he's right. But where do I go from here? It's as if I am living in my own fairytale world where the real and the virtual are so mashed together that I can no longer distinguish the two. I'm living in a world where I see and refer to my avatar as 'me' and perceive whatever happens in the virtual world as real. So much for ending my virtual life, right? I'm right back there where I started. Will this ever end?
I guess that I have somewhat of an addictive personality in the sense that whenever I get into anything, I take it to the extreme. This has been the case with everything in my life. While taking things to extremes can be great in certain situations, it can also be very destructive. The more I psychoanalyze myself, the more I realize that I need to establish balance and perspective in my life if I am to ever progress to anything I'd be proud of. It's not that I'm not proud of what I've accomplished thus far, it's just that I know that I can do and be so much more in both the real and the virtual world if I can only find balance instead of aimlessly drifting from one extreme to another. Perhaps the right perspective will help me establish balance and thus open the doors to true inspiration and opportunity.
Where does one go from here? How does one find the right perspective? Is there anyone else out there who have also struggled with this and can shed some light on the situation or am I just a lone crazy monkey stuck inside a reality distortion field? I guess the fact that I know something is wrong with this situation is a good thing. It's like where they make drug addicts admit they have a problem and that they need help. Perhaps now that I've admitted that I need balance and lack perspective, it's the first step towards recovery. Or maybe I'm perfectly normal and there's nothing wrong or weird with the way that I live my life. It's all about perspective. Thanks for reading my thoughts. xoxo

Halloween is the time for "trick or treat." But did you know that every day you are being offered a trick far worse than a prank and a treat far better than candy?
Don't Be Tricked!
Sin can trick you. Have you ever thought that the people who are doing all the bad things are having all the fun? Don't be tricked! Sin is like a fishing lure: it may look great on the outside, but there's a hook on the inside! Many people today are tricked into thinking that doing bad things is fine. However, the Bible tells us that "the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23).
Other people can trick you. Lots of people have different ideas about what is right and what is wrong. That's why God tells us, "Let no man deceive you with vain [empty] words" (Ephesians 5:6). Remember: if it's not in the Bible, it's probably a trick, and will lead you down the wrong road!
You can even trick yourself. Some people try to tell themselves, "It doesn't matter what I believe, just so I believe something." That may sound nice, but it's a trick! The Bible says, "The heart is deceitful above all things" (Jeremiah 17:9). Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me" (John 14:6).
Here's The Truth!
God will never trick you. Unlike all the other things we have looked at, we know that "God … cannot lie" (Titus 1:2). Instead of telling us a lie, God's Word points out that "All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). You see, our sin makes us dirty like a pair of shoes that have walked through the mud. And just like we can't walk through our own houses with muddy shoes, we can't get into Heaven—which is God's house—until our sin has been washed away.
God loves you. In fact, "God is love" (1 John 4:8,16). No one could ever love you as much as God does. And even though you've done bad things, He still loves you. That's why He has done the only thing that could ever wash your sins away. He sent His Son, Jesus Christ—who had never done even one wrong thing—to go to the Cross to suffer and die for your sins and mine. God showed that Jesus had fully paid sin's debt by bringing Him back to life three days later. Now you can have your sins washed away by receiving what He has done for you. "As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name" (John 1:12).
God calls you. Salvation from sin is a free gift, but we must receive it. All you need to do is tell God that you know you are a sinner, believe that Jesus died for you on the Cross, and trust Him to be your Savior and Lord. God will hear you no matter where you are or what words you use. Then you will have the best treat of all—forgiveness of all your sins and eternal life with Him in heaven! "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life" (John 3:36).
We can add your custom imprint to individual titles of Gospel Tracts, as well as our Calendar Cards. Please note that Tract Assortments, Poems, Mini Tracts, booklets, and some Believers Tracts cannot be imprinted.
How Much Does Tract Imprinting Cost? The imprinting charge is $4 per pack for tracts. There are no setup fees or minimum or maximum quantity limits, so when you order an imprinted item, feel free to order as few or as many copies as you want.
How Much Does Calendar Card Imprinting Cost? To order imprinted calendar cards, locate the special Personalized item in the Calendar Cards category. The imprinting charges are already built into this item; there are no other extra charges or fees.
How Long Will It Take to Get My Imprinted Items? Tract imprints of about 3,000 copies or less (per title) only require 2-3 business days for printing. Tract imprints of 3,000 or more copies (per title) usually require 2-3 weeks for printing. Imprinted calendar cards are usually shipped in about 1 week.
Where Does My Imprint Go? Every tract has a reserved space on the back (approximately 1" tall x 3" wide) for imprinting (see picture at right). The calendar card has a reserved space on the calendar side (beside the year). Your imprint will go in this space.
How Much Text Can My Imprint Include? There is room for up to 5 lines of text on Gospel Tracts (4 lines on calendar cards), with approximately 40 characters per line. Adding more text would require the text to be so small that we don't recommend it.
Can I Add A Logo or Image? Yes, you can upload your own custom logo or image. Remember that adding an image to your imprint reduces the amount of room available for text, and you should limit your text accordingly.
How Do I Order Imprinted Tracts? When ordering a tract, select the "Add Imprinting" option and fill in the fields that appear. A live preview will be generated so you can see what your imprint will look like. Please note that due to differences in devices and browsers, your finished tracts may not look exactly like the preview. All imprints are reviewed by our designers for content and style before printing.
Do I Have to Enter My Imprint Over and Over? Nope. If you are ordering multiple tracts with the same imprint, you can enter all of the details with the first tract, and then enter "same" on Line 1 for the others. Likewise, if you have ordered imprinted tracts in the past and want to use the same information, simply enter "same as before." All orders are carefully reviewed, and we will link everything together for you.

Roller Hydraulic Lifters should be as quite as they come. I have heard that Comp Cams and components are not the greatest. I'm sure that will be mentioned again. Sounds like you may have a lifter or 2 or 3 bleeding down.
what good components would be recommended to replace what I have...?
Many rollers are noisy, especially GMs. Just listen to any ZZ4 and you'll hear them plain as day. Don't worry about it.
A Friend of of mine runs that same grind in a very similar 383 and it too is very noisey...
Ok I finally made the video so how do I post it.....?
exactly..... can here mine @ ideal and standing outside and to the sides of the engine bay .......
ok i have the video now...take a listen and let me know if it sounds normal or not...
First off, that's a very good video! Most we see are crappy and have horrible sound.
Hmmm, kinda a tough call but to me, it sounds really noisey. We have a Comp roller with their 286 cam and it's pretty quiet compared to yours. Since you have a very loud exhaust and it still comes across as valve noise, i'd be suspect on it. Hopefully some of the others will give their opinion.
What rockers do you have on the heads?
Thanks Jmark...
The rockers are the Comp Cams Pro Magnum 1.6
Yes great vid. Great sounding small block. Personally, the light valve train noise wouldn't bother me. Although I am used to mechanical rollers... :D .
I bet your valve covers are exaggerating the noise some. Sounds crazy but try a different pair before you resort to drastic measures.
Other than that, double check your lifter preload. The Comp hyd. roller lifters I have spec .030" of plunger preload, which happens to be a half-turn at the rocker with a 7/16 stud. I don't know what GM specs on theirs as far as preload.
sounds can be, well....
I readjusted them all 2 times yesterday....set to TDC spun the pushrod till it gave resistance then I went 3/4 turn and locked them down....Also my
harmonic balancer has a mark called VERTICAL TDC and then the timing marks starting with 0........10........20.........30 etc
I set at the the TDC at this Vertical TDC, was that the right thing to do or should I have set it at o...?
its a Professional Products Harmonic Balancer
A quote from the Professional Products damper instructions:
We have made a running change in our 6-3/4" SB Chevy 350 dampers #80000 and #90000 by adding another TDC mark which is labeled "Vertical TDC." This is for those engines produced from 1984 to 1995 which have the TDC mark at
the top of the balancer and are timed by looking down behind the water pump
to view the timing pointer. Use an aftermarket timing tape if desired."
Use the '0' zero on your balancer.
Here is what I do for adjusting lash and preload, This method works best with degreed balancers with marks every 90 deg.
Start with zero, #1 on TDC. Adjust #1 Intake and Exhaust, rotate engine clockwise with turning socket by hand 90 deg. and adjust #8 Intake and Exhaust...then another 90 deg. and so on.. 1,8,4,3,6,5,7,2. and you are done. Basically you are following all the TDC events in the firing order. Two full turns of the engine is all you need.
That's the method to my madness anyway. :thumbup:

Just found out, most Denny's are franchises and the individual owner makes the rules.
What a bad, bad move for that resturant. I bet we hear the apology and retraction before long.
Around here, resturants love it when uniformed officers come into the resturant. Most of them get some sort of discount, free coffee, dessert etc. just as a thank you for their service.
Some folks will try to tickle the tiger's tongue, so to speak.
Their Capt did the right thing, I just hope all non police officers that have CHL permit also boycott that Denny's Restaurant.:danceban:
When I worked in the restaurant business, Police Officers were encouraged to eat with us.
We liked having armed presence inside the building!
What a difference in times from 1960's to now!
Manager deserve everything that's about to happens to him!
Too bad his Employees might have to suffer the same fate.
Probably be a good time to seek a safer employement environment!
There is not much I can ad to this other than I think the manager is not the brightest bulb in the socket.
It would be great if the first words the Police Officer that responses to a robbery call at that Denny's was to ask the Manager what did the robber say to you when you told him he had to take his weapon out to his car or leave the restaurant. :danceban:
Yes right next to Cheaper Than Dirt.
BELLEVILLE: Belleville police chief lifts ban on officers eating at Denny's, says he harbors no grudges | Metro-east news | News Democrat
Seems this Denny's has reached out to the Belleville PD and apologized for the actions of the manager. No word on if the manager is still employed or not.
And quickly, as it should have. Guess the (former?) manager didn't understand that suits and dress are the uniforms of detectives.
Yeah,that manager isn't the sharpest spoon in the knife drawer.
But will they allow us commoner's to carry also?Quote:
Denny's Corp. spokeswoman Liz DiTrapano said Wednesday, "Denny's policy permits law enforcement officials to carry their firearms in the restaurant, and we regret any misunderstanding."

Internet at sea?
Does anyone know of a way to have internet access at sea on a consistent basis while cruising around the globe? Is satellite the only option? Has anyone used a service before? How expensive was it?
Internet at sea?
get your amateur radio license (HAM) and you will be able to use email thru your ssb free! otherwise check out sailmail.com and pactor.com for additional info, tmc
Internet at sea?
Simply stated, we really aren''t there yet, technologically. You can have limited web access at a huge price via SatCom. And you can have limited web access in U.S. coastal waters via cell service (e.g. att.net), also at huge cost. 3rd generation cell phones may expand this in time, also not cheaply, but again would only be coastal in use.
The only piece of web access with which I''m familiar for we (economically challenged) mortals is HF email. And usually that only means email that can be routed via the internet. Winlink (the ham HF email system) is somewhat of an expansion on this, as you can access digital files of wx f''casts, wx sat pics, wx wind/wave f''casts, etc. These originate from a wide variety of web and internet sources, worldwide, but are essentially sent as email to you. This service is free, the digital ''packets'' make every image & text file crystal clear & complete, it is hugely useful, and is state of the art today, no matter how stuffy and antiquated the image of amateur radio.
Internet at sea?
it''s expensive, about $9,000.00, plus installation, plus a monthly fee, plus a per min fee, but it''s finally available!!!
from Kvh.com site
Now, the same broadband Internet service you depend on at home and at work is available when you''re on the go. The TracNet Mobile High Speed Internet Server brings together all of the elements necessary to offer high-speed Internet and wireless data access through the same TracVision antenna you use to receive your favorite satellite TV entertainment. When connected to a DVB-compatible TracVision antenna and the high-powered mobile DirecPC satellite service TracNet receives Internet downloads at speeds reaching 400 Kbps. And with its 802.11b wireless access and 10/100 BaseT Ethernet connection for your computers, TracNet offers unmatched service and convenience.

Get her to the vet ASAP. There's something serious going on and waiting any longer to get her to the vet may cost her her life.

Immigration and Nurses - Why Africa is watching the U.S. Senate
If U.S. immigration reform plays out the way U.S. Sens. Edward Kennedy and John McCain would like it to, don't be surprised if some African countries slap a ban on the emigration of nurses and other health professionals when that reform kicks in.
What does the one have to do with the other? It's called the H-1B visa, a highly coveted stamp in a non-U.S. passport that allows the passport's owner to legally enter the United States and work. H-1B is a non-immigrant classification. Its bearer is employed temporarily in a specialty occupation—architecture, engineering, medicine, education, accounting, law, theology, the arts—or, yes, as "a fashion model of distinguished merit and ability." Immigration law establishes an annual quota for H-1B visas—65,000 for the current fiscal year, which ends September 30.
It's not easy to obtain H-1B status. According to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, a sponsoring U.S. employer first must file a labor condition application (LCA) with the Department of Labor attesting to several items, including payment of prevailing wages for the position and the working conditions offered. The employer files the certified LCA with a Form I-129 petition, plus a fee of $130. H-1B status generally is granted for no more than six years at a time, although that period may be extended in certain cases. The maximum period for certain aliens working on Defense Department projects is 10 years. At the end of the maximum period, an alien must remain outside the United States for one year before another H-1B petition can be approved.
In 2004, 66,309 immigrants entered the United States legally from Africa, fewer than from any other region except Oceania—Australia, Guam, Fiji, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa are among the nations of Oceania—from where slightly more than 5,900 emigrated legally to the United States. The same year, 4,363 holders of non-immigrant H-1B visas came in from Africa, including 925 from Nigeria, 886 from Egypt, 553 from Ghana and 154 from Kenya.
Little love is lost between African governments and H-1B, which is why they are glued to the current immigration ruckus in the United States and the likely fallout on the H-1B quota. At the heart of their angst is the exodus of highly skilled workers, particularly those from the shortage-beleaguered health sector. Zambia's president, Levy Mwanawasa, for example, recently traveled to Britain for medical treatment partly due to inadequate health staff in his country. And Uganda's minister for primary health care says the country could run out of health workers if the health work force crisis is not addressed immediately.
Last year, Massachusetts Democrat Kennedy and Arizona Republican McCain, two of the country's more open-minded senators, co-sponsored the loftily titled "Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act," setting off a wave of teeth grinding in Africa. Under the Kennedy-McCain bill, undocumented workers and their families can apply for a work visa, pay a $1,000 fine and after six years of working—or six years of schooling for students—file for legal permanent resident status. More troubling for Africa, the bill doubles the number of employment-based visas. With the United States experiencing its own severe nursing shortage, the Senate is seriously considering allowing in an unlimited number of nurses as part of the wider debate on immigration policy.
Kenyans have raised the loudest voice in dismay. It's bad enough, though understandable, that nurses have been emigrating to Britain, where it's easier to get a work permit than in the United States, they say. "With their low wages, dangerous working conditions and scarce medicine and supplies, African nurses have good reasons for leaving, but their [emigration] will leave behind more suffering," Isabella Mbai, head of the department of nursing sciences at Moi University, wrote in a letter published in April in The Washington Post. But it would be worse if lawmakers lift the cap that currently allows a maximum of 500 nurses a year from Africa and other countries to take jobs in the United States. "Solutions to the U.S. nursing shortage shouldn't come at the cost of African lives," Mbai declared.
Health Ministry statistics show just one doctor for every 100,000 people in Kenya and 49 nurses per 100,000—well below the World Health Organization's recommended ratio of one health professional per 5,000 persons. In a preemptive strike, the Kenyan government announced plans to employ 3,800 medical personnel by June, including nurses, laboratory technicians and clinical officers, to help close a gap of 7,000 workers. Other countries likely will follow suit. Stanching the drain to the West, however, will take much more than new hiring.

We have a full staff of professional, skilled and dedicated employees awaiting your call. We provide services 24/7 as we understand there are urgent issues that need to be tended to immediately. Your climate is our concern.
We live in a wonderful place, but Long Island's weather can be tough on heating and cooling systems. Since 1948, Matz-Rightway has been helping Long Islander's keep their systems operating at peak efficiency. We offer a range of service plans to meet your needs.
We are Long Island's experts in indoor air quality through UV Light, air purification systems and enhanced filtration. We can provider "greener" options to customers ie: geothermal and/or heat pump on an oil furnace. Turn to us for cost-saving and environmentally friendly ways to heat or cool your home -- and for professional, qualified technicians. We are on-call for emergencies 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week.
After your home is measured, our engineers perform calculations so that we can assemble the most efficient system (not too big or too small). Unlike many contractors who use thin, one-size-fits-all ductwork, Matz-Rightway operates our own sheet metal shop to create the ductwork that's sized just right for your home or business.

Meet the artists . . .
The Fall Lewes Artists Studio Tour presents a unique opportunity to enter the working environments of 21 regionally and nationally acclaimed local artists. These artists invite you to an informal introduction of their methods as they open their studios to the public. Meet these artists, see them at work and perhaps win one of the works of art to be given away at each location. The Lewes Artists Studio Tour promises a day filled with color and form, light and shadow and an inspired view of the Eastern Shore through the eyes of the artist. There is no charge to take the tour.
Maps and brochures will be available two weeks before the tour at retail shops, hotels and motels in the Lewes/Rehoboth area, and also at the Chambers of Commerce. Or you can click the image below and print the map on your own printer!

text: RT Book, Whole DB /z-wcorg/ DS http://worldcat.org ID 811523973 LA English T1 Little women : an annotated edition A1 Alcott, Louisa May,, Shealy, Daniel,, YR 2013 SN 9780674059719 0674059719 AB "In this richly annotated, illustrated edition, Daniel Shealy illuminates the novel's deep engagement with issues such as social equality, reform movements, the Civil War, friendship, love, loss, and of course the passage into adulthood. The editor provides running commentary on biographic contexts, social and historical contexts, literary allusions, and words likely to cause difficulty to modern readers. With Shealy as a guide, we appreciate anew the confusions and difficulties that beset the March sisters as they overcome their burdens and journey toward maturity and adulthood. This edition examines the novel's central question: How does one grow up well?--
