Are you tired of not being able to fly around the world to be part of the film festival experience? Do you wish to have your work shown to millions of people across the globe without having to pay hefty entrance fees and deal with all the B.S. politics? Then we've got some badass news for you today.
Our friends over at Slasher Pool are about to make a first in the horror genre: a totally online horror film festival that you can be a part of! Right now Insomnifest 2008 is accepting submissions!
Insomnifest is a brand new horror film festival that takes place entirely online. You'll be able to stream all of the movies live from your computer. Several horror flicks have already been secured (which will be announced soon) and we are determined to keep a high quality on the movies so that this can become an annual event. Entirely self-funded, Insomnifest will, just like After Dark's HorrorFest, create their own posters for the movies and trailers will be available on the official website, www.insomnifest.com, from the middle of January. The fest is scheduled to run for two weeks in February of 2008 but no exact date has been announced yet.

There's no place like home for Stoughton
- Updated: April 3, 2013
In more than two decades of competition at the highest level of the game, Winnipeg's Jeff Stoughton has experienced some of the greatest moments in championship curling.
But, one of the most meaningful wins of all may be the victory over Glenn Howard in the final of the 2012 Capital One Canada Cup that secured a berth in the upcoming Canadian Curling Trials.
The 2013 Tim Hortons Roar of the Rings, presented by Monsanto, will be held in Winnipeg's MTS Centre, Dec.1-8. Two teams, representing the very best of our country's men's and women's competitors, will leave the building with tickets to the 2014 Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia.
"It will be the thrill of a lifetime to play in front of a packed house in our home town with 14,000 people cheering on the local teams," said Stoughton, the day after clinching his spot at the Canada Cup. "We've never had that opportunity before."
Playing out of the Charleswood Curling Club, Stoughton is a 10-time representative for Manitoba at the Brier, winning the Tankard three times – along with a pair of world curling titles.
Stoughton has also been right in the mix at the end of the week for the last two editions of the Canadian Curling Trials. In 2005, it came down to a measurement in the 10th end of the final for Brad Gushue of Newfoundland/Labrador to seal the victory. At the 2009 Trials in Edmonton, Stoughton's team lost the semifinal match to Ontario's Howard.
The Winnipeg foursome, including Jon Mead, Reid Carruthers and Mark Nichols – who was part of Gushue's 2005 squad – is hoping the hometown crowd will provide the extra edge to take the team to the top of the podium in 2013.
"You Gotta Be There" when Winnipeg welcomes the top 16 teams in the country to compete for the right to represent Canada in the 2014 Olympic Games. Reserve your seats in the MTS Centre now by clicking here.

Bruce Pearl
With five full seasons under his belt as the University of Tennessee's head basketball coach, Bruce Pearl has navigated the perilous waters of major college basketball and anchored the Volunteers program among the nation's elite.
While making his fourth Sweet Sixteen appearance in the last six years, Pearl in 2010 managed to knock down the door and guide the Vols into the Elite Eight for the first time in the program's sterling history.
That historic NCAA Tournament run capped the most outstanding and memorable five-year period Tennessee basketball has ever experienced. During that span, Pearl's Vols have never failed to reach the 20-win mark or the NCAA Tournament. The SEC's winningest program over the past five years, Tennessee won the 2008 regular-season SEC championship, claimed three SEC Eastern Division titles and earned the school's first-ever No. 1 national ranking.
Success creates interest, and interested fans fill arenas and hit the road to serve as witnesses. Residing in one of the finest on-campus arenas in America, Tennessee has ranked fourth nationally in average home attendance in each of the last four seasons. Thompson-Boling Arena has earned a reputation as one of the nation's best homecourt advantages, and the Vols are 4-0 at home against top-five teams during the Pearl era.
2009-10 Season Highlights
|Pearl is one of only six active coaches with 10 or more NCAA Sweet Sixteen appearances to his credit, joining Jim Boeheim, Jim Calhoun, Mike Krzyzewski, Rick Pitino and Roy Williams.
"(Pearl) has taken down a lot of high-flying teams as the coach at Tennessee," ESPN.com's Pat Forde wrote in March 2010. "Playing his Volunteers is hazardous to your ranking."
Not only has Pearl attracted a raging and rabid fanbase--which traveled approximately 18,000 strong to see the Vols make their first-ever Elite Eight appearance last season--he has also attracted outstanding players to Knoxville.
Wayne Chism was Pearl's first marquee signee at UT. The Volunteers went 104-38 during Chism's four-year career, and he walked off the court in 2010 as the school's all-time leader in games played and wins. Chism also appeared in more NCAA Tournament games and logged more wins in the "Big Dance" than any Vol in history.
But perhaps more important is the fact that Chism extended Pearl's perfect streak of student-athletes who played four years for him at Tennessee--all have earned their college degree.
Stepping in for Chism and fellow departing seniors Bobby Maze and J.P. Prince is a signing class that was rated by Rivals.com as the fourth-best in the nation--Pearl's third batch of top-10 recruits at UT. America's most sought-after student-athletes continue to migrate to Rocky Top because Pearl and his staff are proven in player development.
"Bruce has done well and succeeded on every level," CBS analyst Clark Kellogg said. "He's done it with enthusiasm, passion and a system and style that really attracts players."
Boasting the fourth-best career winning percentage (.773) among all Division I head coaches with at least five years of experience, Pearl's success has been earned the hard way. His Tennessee teams have won using a fast-paced, pressing style of play--UT led the SEC in scoring in each of his first four seasons--and have also won with defense. Such was the case last season, when the Vols posted the best 3-point field-goal defense (.297) in school history and held opponents to just 65.0 points per game.
"Bruce doesn't get enough credit as a coach," UT athletics director Mike Hamilton said. "The guy can flat-out coach. He knows how to build a program. He's done it here."
Coach Pearl's locker room speech following Tennessee's historic win over top-ranked Kansas on Jan. 10, 2010.
|Thompson-Boling Arena has earned a reputation as one of the nation's best homecourt advantages. The Vols are 4-0 at home against top-five teams during the Pearl era.
Tennessee also has sought out non-conference matchups with the most prominent teams and players on the collegiate landscape. Over the past five seasons, the Vols have defeated Kevin Durant and Texas, Derrick Rose and Memphis, Greg Monroe and Georgetown, Matt Bouldin and Gonzaga, Sherron Collins and Luke Aldrich of Kansas and Ohio State with National Player of the Year Evan Turner. That's in addition to logging SEC wins against future NBA standouts such as Ronnie Brewer, Glen Davis, Al Horford, Rajon Rondo and John Wall.
Playing such a difficult schedule has led to an average year-end RPI of 12.4 as well as three top-five seeds in the NCAA Tournament. Twice in the last three years Tennessee has landed in the top 10 in the final national rankings, with a high of No. 5 after logging a school-record 31 wins in 2007-08.
Tennessee's on-court success has not come at the expense of academics. A dozen different players have earned a total of 25 SEC Academic Honor Roll laurels over the past four seasons, including Dane Bradshaw, who received his bachelor's degree in three years and was completing a master's in Sports management while playing his senior season.
"You can't serve unless you are called upon."
That has been an oft-quoted Pearl mantra throughout his time at Tennessee. A tremendous ambassador for the university, Pearl's selfless community-service work and generous stewardship has made him one of the most influential public figures in the state. He was named "Knoxvillian of the Year" by Knoxville Metro Pulse in 2008 and also received the prestigious "Knoxville Award" this past year. The basketball program also has earned UT's Men's Community Outreach Team Award twice in the last five years.
Pearl and his wife, Brandy, have set a goal to raise $1 million over five years for the basketball program's highly successful OUTLIVE initiative to raise money and awareness about early cancer detection and prevention. The program has already netted more than $225,000 for the UT Medical Center Cancer Institute.
|Tennessee owns the longest active NCAA Tournament streak in the Southeastern Conference and is also the league's winningest program over the past five seasons.
Pearl realized a lifelong dream in the summer of 2009 when his country called upon him to serve as head coach of Maccabi USA's open men's basketball team at the 18th World Maccabiah Games in Israel. He led the American squad to the gold medal for just the third time in 24 years, toppling favored Israel in the title game.
The Maccabiah gold marked Pearl's 16th championship during his head coaching career. In 18 seasons at the collegiate level, his teams have made a remarkable 16 NCAA Tournament appearances and racked up 26 NCAA Tournament wins. Only twice in 18 years has a Pearl-coached team not led its conference in scoring, and his squads have finished either first or second in their respective leagues an amazing 14 times.
Pearl has garnered six National Coach of the Year awards, and his teams have set school-records for wins at two different universities (26 at UW-Milwaukee in 2005 and 31 at Tennessee is 2008). His teams have also won at least 10 games in conference play in all nine of his seasons as a Division I head coach.
His NCAA Tournament resume is equally as impressive--as he is one of only six active head coaches who has led his teams to 10 NCAA Sweet Sixteen appearances. Tennessee stands alongside Kansas, Memphis, Michigan State, North Carolina and Xavier as the only programs in America to reach the Sweet Sixteen in three of the last four seasons.
While Pearl often exults that "it's all about the players," some of his most successful pupils direct the praise Pearl's way.
"When BP first got (to Tennessee), I was just a shooter," three-time All-America Chris Lofton said. "But by the time I left, he and his staff had made me into a scorer."
Current Chicago Bulls guard C.J. Watson is one of more than a dozen players Pearl and his staff have developed into NBA contributors.
"Coach Pearl gets all the credit for my success because he turned me into the player I've become,"Watson said. "He was the one who got me to attack the basket and allowed me to play more aggressive."
Aggressively promoting and selling his program and players has helped Pearl transform Tennessee into one of top 20 "most valuable" college basketball programs in the country according to Forbes.com, with a value of $14.1 million and a profit of $8.6 million in 2009-10.
During the Pearl era, Tennessee has played more than 70 games on national television, and a Vol has appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated four times. In addition, Tennessee has been featured in an ESPN College GameDay matchup for three straight seasons--that ties for the nation's second-longest active streak on GameDay.
"Pearl has done a magnificent job of building confidence and belief in his players--and of selling his program to those closest to it--his own students and fans," ESPN analyst Jay Bilas said.
|Pearl is the fourth-winningest active coach in all of Division I. His .773 winning percentage trails only Roy Williams (.798), Mark Few (.797) and Jamie Dixon (.778).
Pearl's coaching career began at his alma mater, Boston College, as a student assistant coach to the legendary Dr. Tom Davis. After 14 seasons seated to the right of Davis, the 32-year-old Pearl embarked on his own head coaching career. But Pearl's first break came during his undergraduate career at BC when Davis offered him a position of student assistant in 1978. In 1981, the Eagles won the Big East Conference championship and reached the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament. The following season, BC advanced to the Elite Eight.
When Davis moved on to Stanford in 1982, Pearl joined his staff as an assistant coach and then, at the age of 23, was promoted to associate head coach for the Cardinal. While in Palo Alto, Calif., they ended a streak of 20 consecutive losing seasons with a 19-12 overall record in 1983-84, laying the groundwork for a resurgence in Stanford basketball. During that time, they recruited four players who were drafted by the NBA, including Todd Lichti, who finished his career as Stanford's all-time leading scorer with 2,336 career points.
After four seasons on the West Coast, Pearl followed Davis to Iowa in 1986. Over the course of the next six seasons, the Hawkeyes received five NCAA Tournament berths while compiling a 129-63 overall record. In 1987, the Hawkeyes recorded a 30-5 mark and advanced to the Elite Eight before falling to UNLV. The following year, Pearl was recognized as one of the top Division I assistants in the country by Basketball Weekly while helping direct the Hawkeyes to the Sweet Sixteen.
His six seasons in Iowa City helped produce 11 NBA draft picks for the Hawkeyes, including Brad Lohaus, Kevin Gamble, B.J. Armstrong, Roy Marble and Acie Earl.
"From the time I met him he was able to get the most out of me as a player," Lohaus said. "He understood my personality and knew how to motivate me. He believed in me when others did not.
"He still stays in touch, offering his friendship and advice."
These 14 seasons with Davis provided Pearl a foundation of basketball knowledge that enabled him to move on to a head coach position.
"I feel like I had a great mentor in Dr. Tom Davis," Pearl said. "If you're any good at anything, chances are you had somebody pretty good who taught you how to do it. I had the pleasure of being by his side for 14 years. He was a brilliant defensive strategist. He taught me how to press and how to run, but more than anything else, he taught me how to work with young people, how to be patient, how to be disciplined and how to get the most out of them, even more than they ever dreamed they could have."
|Every Vol who has played four seasons for Bruce Pearl has left UT with his degree.
Pearl's first head coaching opportunity came at Southern Indiana, a Division II school located in Evansville, Ind.
Inheriting a team that had won only 10 games the previous season, Pearl's first squad at USI posted a 22-7 record and advanced to the NCAA Tournament. That first season was a precursor of things to come for the school. Over the next nine seasons, the Screaming Eagles posted a 231-46 (.834) record and won four Great Lakes Valley Conference championships.
They received NCAA Tournament bids in each of Pearl's nine seasons and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen six times. USI experienced unparalleled postseason success under Pearl's guidance. The Screaming Eagles won a national championship in 1995 and finished second in 1994. In nine postseason appearances, USI won 16 NCAA Tournament games.
After winning the national championship in 1995, Pearl was named the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Division II Coach of the Year. Twice (1993 and 1994) he was named the Great Lakes Valley Conference Coach of the Year, and in 2000, he garnered NABC Great Lakes Region Coach of the Year honors.
Late in the 2000 season, Pearl earned his 200th career win, making him the fastest coach in NCAA history to reach the 200-victory mark at one school. Needing just 240 games, Pearl easily broke the record of 250 that had been held by North Carolina State's Everett Case.
In Pearl's four years as head coach at UW-Milwaukee, the Panthers won a pair of Horizon League regular-season titles (2004 and 2005) and two Horizon League Tournament championships (2003 and 2005). They advanced to Division I postseason play for the first time in school history, making two NCAA Tournament appearances (2003 and 2005) and receiving an NIT bid (2004).
In 2005, Pearl led the Panthers to the most successful season in school history. In addition to winning regular season and conference tournament titles, UWM made its first-ever appearance in the Sweet Sixteen.
Pearl's 51-13 (.797) record in Horizon League games gave him the best winning percentage of any coach in league history. He became the second-fastest coach to win 300 career games with a 73-56 win over Loyola Jan. 8, 2005.
A native of Boston, Mass., Pearl received his bachelor's degree in business administration from Boston College in 1982, graduating cum laude. Pearl has two daughters, Jacqui and Leah, and two sons, Steven and Michael. He is married to the former Brandy Miller of Sevierville, Tenn.

Why not keep the description in a text file and save it with the template/theme. I mean, I keep archives of all my work so each time I build a template or even just a website for a client I keep all the files, even a template description saved as a text file within the template archive.
I don't paste the description with rejections because I didn't know this was a hassle for some people as I assumed everyone saved their description for reuse. Not saving your description is kind of like not saving your help file in my opinion.
Yeah, I've had that problem and now I save the description as a .txt file on my HD. Great point.
I think most authors go through this little headache at least once – that is – submitting a file after writing a long description – only to have it rejected (which is normal, most themes I submit get rejected 1 or 2 times) and lose the description. Now I just write the description in a Word doc and copy/paste when I'm ready to upload. It's a work-around, not a solution.
Still – as Jeffrey suggests – there's a lot of room for improvement with the entire submission system. That's not to say the current system is bad or broken, it's pretty typical to make mistakes and learn from them on a first-release of any complex process like this.
I for one would love it if my submission was saved and put into a "awaiting revisions" status after I receive the first rejection feedback. I understand that I'd have to re-upload my files after I make edits, but it makes sense to keep the original upload in the system rather than trashing it outright and starting from scratch. For the sake of saving resources on the server, maybe these "rejected submissions" delete themselves if left alone for 30 days, but it seems pretty reasonable to keep them on file in the system for a month. This also seems like it'd make more sense from the review standpoint, as any reviewer could see the entire thread of previous reviewer's feedback on the same page.
I'm sure these are all ideas already in the works as part of the redesign, but what do you guys think? Any thoughts?

Beck Theorizes That The "Plan" Is For China To "Occupy The West"
Research ››› ››› HARDEEP DHILLON & ANDY NEWBOLD
Glenn Beck accused the Obama Administration of orchestrating a "plan" to allow China and Mexico to "occupy the West." This follows a long list of comments Beck has made raising the possibility that China might enslave Americans.
Beck Theory: The Obama Administration Will Allow China And Mexico To "Occupy" U.S. Territory
Beck: Obama Administration Will Allow China To "Occupy" U.S. Territory. During the July 21 edition of his radio show Beck said:
It is really interesting that our communist enemies here in the United States. Something that -- I didn't even think we had them. I thought communism was a joke two years ago. Isn't it strange that the main guy, one of the main guy economic strategists for Putin, still with Putin, said ten years ago that the United States would break up into five different countries, five different sections. When he was asked about this again recently, because some of the things he said have come true now, when he was asked again, he said, "I can't tell why we know these things but we just have assets on the ground."
If you are telling me that you don't think that China would like to occupy the West, maybe you should check some of the land ownership in Idaho. Maybe you should check it out in California. If you don't think Mexico wouldn't take up some of the southwest, you are out of your mind.
This is the plan. I really truly believe this is the plan. They've just surrounded themselves now with radical economists and people like Cass Sunstein that can now make those dreams come true. They didn't know how to rule. They had to figure that out. They've spent since 1968 figuring it out. We went to sleep. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Glenn Beck Program, 7/21/11]
Beck Has A Long History Of Stoking Fears That China Will "Rape Our Mountains For Coal" And Enslave Americans...
Beck: Americans Will Be Put "In A Pretty Little Box With A Nice Pink Ribbon Around It" And Delivered "To China As A Little Worker Bee." In January 2011 Beck told Congress to "shut the pie hole" and added:
Could we just take the time and talk about real issues so we don't tie America up in a pretty little box with a nice pink ribbon around it and deliver the population of the United States of America to China as a little worker bee? Oh, we'll have a lovely, lovely place to work soon. [Fox News, Glenn Beck, 1/18/11]
Beck Claims China Will "Come Over Here And Rape Our Mountains For Coal." In November 2010, Beck warned, "The United States of America is no longer the global superpower. China is." He added:
At some point you as a country need to take care of your own people. There's a little something called self-preservation that Americans seemingly have forgotten. And at some point China says, "We gotta take care of our own." If you don't think they'll come over here and rape our mountains for the coal, especially if we've dishonored their debt -- They warned us, "Don't dishonor our investment." That's a quote: "Don't dishonor our investment." We're going to stand up and say "[[']]No, you're not taking that. No, you can't have that oil in the gulf as repayment?" You really think? With two billion people they could just drop people from the sky, and they -- They don't run out of people before we lose. I mean, people without parachutes. They just drop people, and we lose. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Glenn Beck Program, 11/23/11]
Beck: Tea Party Is Trying To "Make Sure That Our Children Aren't Sold As Slaves To China." In September 2010, Beck said that the Tea Party is not "radical" but that it is trying "to save the country, save the Constitution and make sure that our children aren't sold as slaves to China." [Premiere Radio Networks, The Glenn Beck Program, 9/20/10]
Beck: "Do You Think It'll Be Better When Russia Takes Alaska? When We Have To Sell It To China And The Gulf?" In November 2009, Beck said:
Now let me ask you, environmentalists, because we're gonna go broke -- California, you're gonna go broke. And you won't -- You won't bail yourself out now by getting the resources safely with American technology. The rest of the country, we won't do that either. We won't go and get the coal, and we won't burn it because of bogus climate warning -- climate -- global warming, climate details. We won't go get it. We won't go up into Alaska.
But do you think it'll be better when Russia takes Alaska? When we have to sell it to China and the Gulf? When we have to sell those reserves, and somebody else comes in, and we can't say anything about it? Do you think your environment is gonna be better or worse? If you think that America is just this hate-filled place, do you think when the rest of the world is in charge of you, of us, not that we have to be in charge of everybody else, just mind your own business. Do you think we're better off here or they're better off and more enlightened over there? [Premiere Radio Network, The Glenn Beck Program, 11/30/09]
Beck "Wargame[s]" A Scenario In Which China Takes Over The World. In October 2010, Beck played out a "wargame" that ended with the United States and the rest of the world becoming a "slave" to China. He then reminded his audience that China, as policy, "drowns people in rice patties as a one child policy." [Premiere Radio Networks, The Glenn Beck Program, 10/21/10]
...And Claiming That China Is "The New Goal"
Beck: "China Is The New Goal...Why Do You Think There Are So Many Maoists Hanging Around The White House?" In March 2010, Beck said:
You ask anybody who really looks at global politics and they will tell you, China is the new goal.
Why do you think there are so many Maoists hanging around the White House? Ron Bloom, Anita Dunn, Van Jones. Because this is where we're headed unless we put the brakes on. It's not a place you want to live. [Fox News, Glenn Beck, 3/3/10]
Beck: "It's Almost Like We're Living In Mao's China Right Now." In October 2009, Beck criticized the Entertainment Industry Foundation for being involved in social causes, and said: "It is almost like we're living in Mao's China right now!" [Fox News, Glenn Beck, 10/19/09]
Beck: The United States Is "Moving Towards China, China Is The Model." In March 2010, Beck played audio of Andy Stern, former president of the Service Employees International Union, discussing globalization, and said:
We don't want global government but Andy Stern does. The rest of the world is moving in this fashion. I'm going to show you tonight, I'll show you a little chart, we're moving towards China, China is the model. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Glenn Beck Program, 3/3/10]

Brad's Beat: Joplin Route 66 Tile Mural
"People have asked if there's someplace I can get a picture or anything like that. This is going to be big for the city. We may have to have traffic control, so many people will get their picture taken," said Melodee Colbert-Kean, Joplin Mayor.
The mural is located at 7th and Main in Joplin on the wall of Pearl Brothers Hardware. Pat Tuttle with the Joplin Convention and Visitors Bureau says the city looses a lot of tourists to other towns.
"A lot of them stop in Carthage or Webb City, fly right through Joplin, head into Galena. This is one of those things that will get those travelers to stop in the town for a while," said Pat Tuttle, Joplin CVB.
There will be 2 murals on the wall. The lower one depicts a map of Route 66 and has about 180 tiles. The second mural will consist of 540 tiles. Paul Whitehall owns Images in Tile, the company behind the project. He says the titles will not fade in the sunlight and can even withstand graffiti.
"If by chance it did get tagged by spray paint. I could use action and it won't hurt the image," said Paul Whitehill, Images in Tile.
The mural has a life span of 75 to 100 years.
"This mural is going to be here for generations to come. No matter what happens to Joplin in 75 years, these murals will still be here," said Whitehill.
The mural will be advertised in various Route 66 magazines and the city hopes it will soon be a destination on many tourists maps.
"We think in about 2 years, this will be well known. One of those places on the map you must see," said Tuttle.

The King's Centre for Military Health Research, King's College London, has been awarded a new grant from the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) for £347,000. The research grant for the project titled 'Are the Armed Forces understood and supported by the public? British Social Attitudes towards the military and contemporary conflict' will run for two years from January 2011 to January 2013.
The research team will comprise a partnership involving the King's Centre for Military Health Research (KCMHR), the National Centre for Social Research (NAT CEN) and the Aberdeen Centre for Trauma Research, Robert Gordon University.
The lead Principal Investigator Professor Christopher Dandeker, Department of War Studies and KCMHR, comments, 'The point of departure for the project is some recent evidence suggesting that, although the public have become less supportive of the UK's military involvement in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, their support of the Armed Forces themselves has increased.'
The study will measure:
• public attitudes towards Service and ex-Service personnel (veterans)
• the public's views on the recent conflict in Iraq and the ongoing campaign in Afghanistan
• the interaction between these two sets of attitudes. The research will be based on a new topic module of questions within NAT CEN's British Social Attitudes Survey [BSA] (to be included in the 2011 survey). This survey has a strong tradition of studying prejudice and discrimination but has not studied attitudes towards military populations before.
Dr Nicola Fear and Professor Simon Wessely, from the Institute of Psychiatry and KCMHR, are the co-Principal Investigators with Dr Susan Klein and Professor David Alexander of the Aberdeen Centre for Trauma Research, Robert Gordon University. NAT CEN will be represented on the research team by Ms Liz Clery.
The study will focus on whether the public has prejudicial attitudes and might, therefore, be prone to stigmatising veterans or ex-Service personnel because of one or both of two factors: the presumed characteristics of Service life that are judged to affect the predispositions and behaviour of military personnel when they rejoin civilian society; and negative perceptions about the military stemming from the role of the UK Armed Forces in carrying out missions which lack public support.
The project will analyse how the above attitudes are distributed across the population by region, age, gender, race and ethnic background, and socio-economic status. It will test the validity of the argument that, although the public may support and respect the Armed Forces - even if it does not support the political objectives of the missions they undertake - such support is accompanied and limited by a lack of understanding of what Service personnel actually do.
This research will test the strength of society's support of the military, which is one aspect of the 'military covenant' - a set of mutual social obligations connecting government, Armed Forces and the wider public. The idea of the 'military covenant', developed in military doctrine has migrated rapidly to wider public debates about military society relations.
Dr Nicola Fear comments, 'This research will allow policy makers, and the wider society, to understand the extent to which the public are misinformed about the nature of Service life and the social characteristics and behaviour of ex-Service personnel - forming a gap between the public and the military. In addition, it will inform discussions on how to design ways of rectifying inaccuracies and/or exaggerations, thus helping to develop more effective civilian-military ties.'

Submitted to: Catena
Publication Type: Peer Reviewed Journal
Publication Acceptance Date: 10/31/1997
Publication Date: N/A
Citation: N/A Interpretive Summary: Soil erosion models are used by conservation planners, engineers, and land users in general to estimate soil erosion rates for different combinations of soil type, climate, slope steepness, slope length, and land use. These models have nearly always shown a bias in estimating soil loss when they are tested on measured erosion data. They all have a tendency to estimate erosion values which are too great when the measured erosion rates are low, and they tend to estimate too low when measured rates are greater. This has long been recognized, but never explained. Various and complex explanations have been suggested which often entail theoretical discussions of model structure, linearity, and other factors, but essentially the trend is observed despite the type of model or data set which is used. This paper introduces the hypothesis that the apparent observed bias for soil erosion models, and for hydrologic models in general, is simply due to the fact that the models are deterministic. That is, they produce a single value of predicted erosion for a specific combination of erosion factors. In nature, however, erosion is highly variable. A given set of environmental conditions will be modeled in a specific manner with a single erosion prediction, whereas in nature the erosion for a specific set of measureable environmental factors will produce a range of erosion rates. This study shows the perceived problem of bias in erosion prediction is simply a non-intuitive, mathematical, artifact rather than an inherent problem with soil erosion or hydrologic models per se. This has significant implications for conservation planning and for the use of erosion models.
Technical Abstract: Evaluation of various soil erosion models with large data sets have consistently shown that these models tend to over-predict soil erosion for small measured values and under-predict soil erosion for larger measured values. This trend appears to be consistent regardless of whether the soil erosion value of interest is for individual storms, annual totals, or average annual soil losses, and regardless of whether the model is empirical or physically-based. The hypothesis presented herein is that this phenomenon is not necessarily associated with bias in model predictions as a function of treatment, but rather with limitations in representing the random component of the measured data within treatments (i.e., between replicates) with a deterministic model. A simple example is presented which shows how even a "perfect" deterministic soil erosion model exhibits bias relative to small and large measured erosion rates. The concept is further tested and verified on a set of 3007 measured soil erosion data pairs from storms on natural rainfall and runoff plots using the best possible, unbiased, real world model, i.e., the physical model represented by replicated plots. The results of this study indicate that the commonly observed bias in erosion prediction models relative to over-prediction of small and under- prediction of large measured erosion rates on individual data points is normal and expected if the model is accurately predicting erosion rates as a function of environmental conditions, i.e., treatments.

This is a discussion on Whooie, Eric Larson called within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; My son's holster is being made now for his CZ40P....
My son's holster is being made now for his CZ40P.
I first talked to Eric on Jan. 2, 2009 and received my holster and belt on Feb. 2, 2009. Was quoted 3-4 weeks. Can't complain about that! I was impatient -- my first custom holster! Everyone posting these beautiful photos of HBE holsters, knowing I had one coming... it was torture waiting!!!
Edited to add - I have a S&W 649 snubbie - I called Eric and described my physical limitations and let him pick the holster --- I **think** he called it a "pancake"... it is OWB, to wear appendix, with pretty good amount of muzzle foward cant, and has small slots for the belt to go through. A friend is coming tomorrow, will have him try to get photos of it on me - he wants to try it as he will probably order one for his Taurus Snub... so I will at least take photos of it on him.

I went in to get the dark circles under my eyes fixed and he suggested Juvederm as it is naturally formed in the body. That there would be some slight swelling and bruising around the injection sites but that should go away in a week. It's been 6 weeks and I have HUGE bags under my eyes now that droop below the line that was supposed to be filled in a bit. I look horrendous. I look like a bull dog. I'm going back again this week to HOPEFULLY get that enzyme to dissolve it injected. He's the one who mentioned it to me when I went in after 3 weeks. From the way he was talking I don't think he's ever seen a reaction like mine. What he did figure out was that it wasn't all product but was edema. (his assistant kind of let it slip that this was the case after he left the room). I'm at my wits end and am getting really depressed about all of this. I got this done to help my self esteem along a little bit and now I think I look like a freak of nature. I'm scared to get this next procedure done but I don't feel as though anything else will work. From the research I've done so far the way to get rid of edema is to get rid of the underlying cause. So....I guess it's the enzyme injections. Can anyone tell me if they've had it done and did it work for them because I don't think I can stand this for one more day let alone 6 to 9 months.

Miranda Kerr: Fantasy Treasure Bra Babe
She's one of the most sought after models on the globe, so it's no wonder Miranda Kerr was selected by Victoria's Secret to show off the Fantasy Treasure Bra at the brand's fashion show in November.
The $2.5 million diamond-studded undergarment is comprised of 3,400 precious stones including white and yellow diamonds, pears, citrines, and aquamarines.
Of the gig, Miranda told press, "It's such an honor to wear the bra. And it's such a piece of artwork! It's absolutely stunning — it kind of feels a little mermaid-like — but I can't believe I'm wearing $2.5 million on my chest."
Jeweler Candy Udell told press, "We put a lot of love into this bra," and her daughter Randi added, "We put a lot of our most favorite elements into it, such as the tassel — it'll be wonderful with her walking down the runway, the tassel swinging with her body. We thought about the runway show, and what would catch everyone's attention."

After a U.S. Supreme Court summer session this year that will go down in history for controversial decisions that gutted voting rights, affirmed marriage equality and kinda did nothing for affirmative action, the court begins anew this week. This session doesn't include the kind of high-stakes, hypertension-inducing cases involving civil rights as the last one, but there are some interesting petitions this fall that people of color might want to follow in their feeds over the next few months.
1. #CampaignFinance | Shaun McCutcheon, et al. v. Federal Election Commission: This case, heard yesterday, has been billed as the sequel to Citizens United, the SCOTUS case four years ago that counted corporations as people with free speech rights and thus removed restrictions on how much they could donate to political action committees during elections. Citizens United resulted in corporations and wealthy individuals giving copiously to political campaigns last year. With McCutcheon, what's at stake is whether limits on contributions made directly to candidates, political parties and committees are constitutional. If the court decides they are not, then we may see elections straight sold to the highest bidder, making a mockery of "one woman/man, one vote."
2. #AffirmativeAction | Bill Schuette Attorney General of Michigan v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action, Integration and Immigrant Rights and Fight for Equality By Any Means Necessary (BAMN): Though SCOTUS didn't really decide definitively on affirmative action's legal merits this summer, they'll have another stab at it next week. Under Schuette, the court will decide if Michigan violated the U.S. Constitution's equal protection clause when it amended its state constitution to ban race-based affirmative action in public universities. It's a different case than the previous one, Fisher, which was about a white woman challenging a university policy that she believed discriminated against her because of her race. Schuette focuses on whether equal protection rights were violated when race-based university admissions decisions were shifted from the university to the state.
3. #ReproductiveJustice | McCullen v. Coakley: This case is about a Massachusetts law that creates a 35-foot "buffer zone" around women's health clinics where protestors are forbidden. The buffer zones protect clinic workers and patients from aggressive anti-choice activists. The court already upheld a similar law in Colorado in 2000, saying buffer zones strike a balance between free speech and those who don't want that kind of speech shouted in their face as they approach a clinic. But the party advocating to get rid of the buffers want that 2000 decision overturned as well as the Massachusetts law. The SCOTUS that upheld the buffer zone law in Colorado is a quite different one reviewing the case this fall.
4. #HousingDiscrimination | Mount Holly v. Mt. Holly Gardens Citizens in Action: In this case, SCOTUS will consider whether the department of Housing and Urban Development's fair housing policy on "disparate impact" is constitutional. (Disparate impact focuses on the discriminatory results of a policy as opposed to intentional discrimination.) But this case has broader implications for civil rights laws in general. Whether we're dealing with housing, voting rights, labor laws or environmental justice, much of the strength undergirding civil rights protections in these areas lies in the disparate impact clause. Meaning, if people of color are losing work, housing, ballot access or protection from pollution due to a law, they don't have to prove that lawmakers discriminated on purpose when devising the law. They only need to prove that the effects of a law have led to discriminatory results. Some of the SCOTUS judges, including Chief Justice John Roberts, don't like disparate impacts, so this will be one worth observing.
5. #NativeRights | Michigan v. Bay Mills Indian Community: This case will determine whether a state (in this instance, Michigan) can sue a Native tribe or nation (in this case, the Bay Mills Indian Community) for operating an off-reservation casino. A lower court ruled that tribal sovereign immunity remains in effect even when a tribe operates a casino off of federal trust land, but the state is arguing that tribal sovereign immunity doesn't apply. The Supreme Court will be deciding whether the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act makes it so that the state cannot sue the tribe. Additionally, the Supreme Court is also being asked to directly weigh in on--and perhaps cut away at--the question of tribal sovereignty immunity.

|McMenamins Hammerhead Ale
Sham (43) Seattle, Washington | October 27, 2004
Nice place overlooking the Columbia and Portland. The beers are fair and the food is good provided you arent too busy rating beers to eat it before it gets cold.
after4ever (322) Mukilteo, Washington | December 21, 2015
If youve already been to a few McMenamins and you love them, this one will certainly not make you love them any less. Its not the most distinctive of their properties by any means, but its a great setting for sure. And everything else they do here is pretty much in line with the experience elsewhere.
Heres what you get: Its one of those big buildings that always seem to house a succession of different big/chain restaurants until one really sticks. These guys seem to have been here for a while. Its easy to get to, freeways the whole way. Plenty of parking. Huge dining rooms. What stands out by far the most is the location--right on the shore of the river; when the channel is full, you almost feel like you must be on a boat. Great views of water, the bridge, north Portland.
Inside, the vibe is familiar, but played down quite a bit. They let the windows be 90% of the decoration, rather than covering everything with the usual flowers and faeries and whatnot that the other locations have. Theres some dark wood around the bar, but the tables and booths around the dining room are pretty standard. Across the ceiling, they do work in the old 50s junior high hallway pendant lights, which create a nice soft effect.
The staff here really have to hustle on a lot of nights--it gets packed. We waited 75 minutes for a table, after first being told the wait was half an hour. They never asked if we were alright--we always had to ask them what was up. They never asked the table they "had in mind for us" if they were planning on staying a lot longer, though they made a point of telling us that table had already paid some time before, and were just relaxing with their beers at that point. They never offered us any comps for the time spent, they never put tables together to create enough seating for our party. All of this is more or less okay from minute to minute, but it adds up to a much longer wait than is really necessary for a party of 6.
The food is the usual--burgers, sandwiches, a few salads and a couple of entrees. The quality is just okay, as is the execution, but the prices are a bit on the high side. The food here is exactly the same as dozens of their other locations in two states, but they charge almost like its scratch-made. The beers here dont really measure up to the quality of all the independent local breweries that have launched since these guys started their chain, but theyre drinkable enough. When youre looking at this view, its hard not to enjoy the food and drink thats in front of you, even if its only okay.
UDBeernut (348) Saint Johns, Florida | November 13, 2014
went here for lunch and sat at the bar. place was busy, service was ok, but a bit slow. food was pretty good... beer was average. much better options elsewhere, wouldi go back, prob not.
douglas88 (312) Portland , Oregon | September 9, 2014
Nice place. Right on the river, decent parking. Same usual pub fare and McMenamins brews. Good service. Certainly worth a visit. The seating outside is pretty nice.
t0rin0 (1529) Do Not Resuscitate, California | September 17, 2013| Updated September 24, 2013
Stopped in on a rainy Saturday afternoon after looking at houses in Vancouver. This was right down the street from where I was staying. What a great area, beautiful view of the river and none of the taxes that you get across the river. The pub itself is RIGHT on the water which is cool. Of course since it was raining and cold we sat inside but it was still nice. The service was friendly and brought out some flights for us as well as a few pints. The beers were just alright but I guess thats how it goes at a chain. The food was nice though. Id stop back in if staying with those friends but there are better places to have a beer just across the water.
BrewDad (464) Olympia, Washington | May 25, 2012
Another great McMenamins - Love the view from the river and this place has some great food and atmosphere. Great beer this is a must stop and a great date place.
bblack99 (30) Kansas City, Missouri | September 4, 2008
A small selection of beers when I visited, mostly just the McMenamins beers and about 5 other IPAs on the guest taps. There may have been more, but the waiter was busy running table-to-table and was on the go. Terrible seafood (salmon) but some of the typical pub fare looked decent. The black and tan brownie was EXCELLENT. The view is great, its a funky little spot on the river...worth a stop if you want to relax.
bhensonb (593) Woodland, California | December 17, 2007
Very nice venue. Ask for the specials (not on the menu). Appetizers were excellent.
Dreves (3) Oakdale, California | November 4, 2007
Try the Ruby ale!
bullmoose62 (9) | May 24, 2007
Only redeeming feature is the view, and on a clear day....oh man what a view!! Aside from that, the usual achingly slow service and corner cutting on menu items by corporate idiots.
mikebeertaster (23) washougal, Washington | January 4, 2005
This location for McMenanins is better. Especially during the summer, if you can sit outside, you are sitting right on the river. The beer is average and the food is average

The aprof :
the libertryeserve company use Shadowserver as a DNS and the SHADOWSERVER has fights amplified DDoS attacks
and you can read this artice about :
Shadowserver fights amplified DDoS attacks
And the libertyreserve apdated their server
to protect their website from those DDOS ATTACK.
And finaly the DNS Sinkhole, also known as a Sinkhole Server, Internet Sinkhole, or BlackholeDNS[1] is a DNS server that gives out false information, to prevent the use of the Domain Names it represents. The most common use is to stop Botnets, by interrupting the DNS names the bot net is programmed to use. Sinkholes can be used both constructively and destructively, depending on the target !!!
If i'm true and the libertyreserve come back again as i said !!! don't forget to give as a gist some dollars to enjoy my summer hhhhhhhh

2005 Mitsubishi Galant Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 2005 Mitsubishi Galant based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
The engine may develop a low idle or stalling condition due to a failed idle air control valve. Our technicians tell us the replacement of the faulty valve is required to correct this condition.
The power windows may fail, often related to moisture inside the door. Affected components will need to be replaced. If possible some type of moisture protection could be added to try and prevent repeat failures.
It is not uncommon for the clear coat paint on black vehicles to develop white spots and begin peeling. In most cases Mitsubishi will not cover out of warranty repairs for this condition.
A rattle type noise may develop from one of the exhaust heat shields. Replacement of the affected heat shield may be required to correct this issue.
The automatic transmission may develop a 2-3 shift flair. This is commonly caused by an internal fault related to the reverse clutch assembly. Replacement of the rear housing and reverse clutch assembly may be required to correct this concern.
The automatic transmission may fail prematurely. Transmission overhaul or replacement may be necessary to correct this concern.
The crankshaft position sensor may fail causing a no start and/or stalling condition. Replacement of the failed sensor will generally corrects this concern.
The Check Engine Light may illuminate with no fault confirmed. Our technicians tell us a powertrain control module (PCM) software update is available which may correct this concern.
A noise may develop from the steering column, this is commonly caused by the turn signal cancel cam which may require replacement.
The Check Engine Light may illuminate due to one or more engine vacuum leaks. Our technicians tell us these leaks can be caused by damage to seals and/or vacuum hoses as a result of to much ethanol content in the gasoline. Affected hoses and seals must be replaced to correct this concern.
The drivers power seat may not adjust properly or develop a noise issue when adjusting. This is commonly caused by a damaged drive cable which will require replacement.

4L60e low-reverse clutch retaining clip stuck!
5 Attachment(s)
the lo-reverse clutch retaining clip is stuck hard, I had even tried multigrips half a dozen times, no success.
How do i get this clip out of my 4L60e?
Here some picture, not in this order,(clip thumbnail images for expolded view):
-a picture of the location of the clip, and zoomed
- a picture of my attempt,
- a picture of the clip and were I am grabbing it from & the direction of pull,
- and a proposed design modification of adding two holes to the clip IF YOU GM PART MANUFACTURES ARE READING THIS !!! to make our life easier.
I think it has been shoved into the wrong location ??
If anyone has a solution they could post, I would greatly appreciate it.
thanks in advance.
its going to be stuck, you gota use the output shaft to knock the center support out and that will free it up. lay the trans down on its back and take a heavy soft blow hammer to the output shaft and hit the output shaft from the bottom of the case. as long as the snap ring has been removed, and the inner lugs of the case arent messed up, it should come right out. you will never get the anti-rattle spring out without removing the center support, without ruining the spring.

thanks tnsmith 10
i will give it go.
You said: "that is called the reverse anti-rattle spring" not "lo-reverse clutch retaining clip " thanks for correcting me here.
There are so many different name for it out their. even ATSG call it something different, (see attachment)
Even the directions from the ATSG manual for disassembly seem open to interpretation. eg."remove the lower reverse roller clutch assembly from the case".... which direction?)
thanks again tnsmith 10 .
1 Attachment(s)
tnsmith 10 you said " as long as the snap ring has been removed" was that the large outer snap ring or the smaller inner snap ring (see image)
Done! Ahha, its the outer snap ring your were refering to.
I just put the rear shaft back in and it all came out, no need to even use a hammer.
Thanks tnsmith 10 for the advice. ( thumbs up!)
you are very welcome. :thumbup: glad i could help

The folks on the Android Design team have released some rather useful new stencils to help aspiring developers with the look and layout of their application. By using the stencils, developers can very quickly put together a paper prototype or mockup and identify issues in any layout before they've spent endless hours coding, rather than after.
When Android Design launched back in January, it gave application developers three design principles to help emulate Android's look and feel:
- Enchant Me
- Simplify My Life
- Make Me Amazing
After a large demand from the community, Google has released a stencil pack. Compatible with Adobe Fireworks and OmniGraffle, Google hopes the pack can help to arrange better interfaces, so that applications will blend in with the rest of Ice Cream Sandwich.
Drag and drop your way to beautifully designed Ice Cream Sandwich apps. The stencils feature the rich typography, colors, interactive controls, and icons found throughout Android 4.0, along with phone and tablet outlines to frame your creations. Source files for icons and controls are also available.
– Android Design
We love the work being done at Android Design, its another fantastic example of Google providing for the their developers.]]>

I received the Do-All Double Trouble steel target for Christmas and upon reading the directions like I was always taught to do, I see where they say "Soft nose lead bullets only, at 30 yards." Are any of you familiar with this target? I typically "train" with my M&P 15-22 3 times a week, and do not shoot lead rounds. I use the Federal 550 Packs, that are copper plated hollow points. I was planning on adding this steel target to my obstacle course, but now I'm afraid I wont be able to shoot it. I'd rather be safe than sorry, so do any of you have any experience with this target? I appreciate your input, and have added a link to the target I'm asking about. I hope you had a Merry Christmas, and have a safe and Happy New Year!

Movies by Flixster
iTunes link: Movies by Flixster – Free
If you're into movies then Flixster is a must-have download. Essentially, it's a cinema listings guide that lets you see which movies are playing locally and at what time. The app has a huge database of local cinemas along with information such as their location, phone number and show times for films over the next seven days. But the app goes much further than this.
It lists all the movies currently showing in the UK, shows you what films are opening during the week and lets you sort them alphabetically or, more usefully, by rating. It even has links to movie trailers as well as reviews from the popular Rotten Tomatoes site. Tap on a movie name and it'll display a synopsis of the plot along with information about the director and cast.
A great way not just to check what's on at the movies, but also to find out more about films you're thinking of going to see.

Seminary Sacrifice
This year I sometimes have had to get up at 5:45 a.m. so I could ride with my mom while she drove my sister and some others to early-morning seminary. Once we get to the church my mom and I wait in the parking lot until seminary is over, then drive the kids to school. Some days I go to school right after my mom's car-pool duty, so I have to be super organized the night before, with my clothes all laid out and my homework all done.
Even though I've had to give up an hour of sleep, I'm glad I can help my sister get to seminary and also help my parents by not complaining about it. My sacrifice hasn't been totally hard because my mom and I have played games, worked on cross-stitch, and watched the sun rise as we waited.
When I Am Tempted
I went with my friend to the store, and my friend stole some candy. He asked, "Do you want some?" I said no because I knew that he had done something wrong. Because of my example, my friend put the candy back. When I was little, I was tempted to steal candy and other things that I wanted. But now when I am tempted I remember how much better I feel when I choose the right.
I Didn't Go
Someone in my class at school invited me to their birthday party. I wanted to go, but I knew I shouldn't because it was on a Sunday. I felt good inside because I didn't go.
I Will Honor My Parents *
One night my mom was really stressed. My little sister and I had an idea. We would do all of Mom's chores. We started by making her bed. Then we did the laundry for her. It was hard to keep it a secret. Soon we finished. When we told her, she was so happy! We were happy too. I felt the Spirit that day, and I know we chose the right.
Scooting Over
Last year in my fourth-grade class there was a boy whom nobody respected. At lunch our table always got really crowded, and no one would scoot over for him. I knew that this wasn't right, so whenever he asked me to scoot over, I did. One day one of my friends asked, "Why do you always scoot over for him?" I answered, "That's what I'd like someone to do for me." I know that when I scooted over he appreciated it. I felt good inside too, because I believe that it was what Jesus would have done.
Good Example for Grandpa
One summer we visited my Grandpa Joe, who is not a member of the Church. When we were beginning to eat breakfast, I said: "Wait, Grandpa Joe! We forgot to thank Heavenly Father for the food." He looked surprised but closed his eyes while I blessed the food. I always try to be a good example for Grandpa Joe, and now when I go to his house, he waits for me to say the prayer. I know that others watch what I do, and I hope to always make Heavenly Father happy as I teach by my example.

U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman today announced that two New Mexico projects have been selected to receive a total of $746,500 to improve transportation services for veterans.
The New Mexico Department of Transportation will receive $414,000 to upgrade a regional call center to include scheduling software, in-vehicle technology and routing to improve access to transit services for more than 75,000 veterans who live in the northern counties of Santa Fe, Bernalillo, Los Alamos, Rio Arriba and Taos.
The Mid-Region Council of Governments will use its $332,500 grant to implement the first phase of a comprehensive one-call/one-click center, including the development and implementation of a one click web site, to provide the more than 78,000 veterans who live in the greater Albuquerque region with improved access and integrated referrals to participating transportation providers.
"Whether it's getting to and from work or to the VA clinic, transportation can be a barrier for some of our states' veterans. This funding will make it easier for veterans to access transportation services," Bingaman said.
Funding was awarded through the U.S. Department of Transportation's Veterans Transportation and Community Living Initiative, which helps local governments and transit agencies use upgraded technology to make it easier for veterans to access transit services such as buses, vans, taxis and other transportation systems.

So I took delivery of my 2013 DGM Hatch back in August, absolutely loving the car, this would be my 3rd WRX and the first since my BMW M3, At 1000 after break in I had the oil done and threw an AEM Intake on and went TP stage 1, I fell more in love with the car but I wanted more, dont we all? I then threw a Invidia Catless DP on with the OEM CBE threw TP stage 2 on at 19 PSI, I felt as if I was doing a crime driving a subie with no exhaust note so I picked up a SPT exhaust and mated it to a custom 3 inch mid pipe, this is when the troubles started, boost became impossible to control, I gave the grimmspeed 3 port a shot, it helped a bit but the SOB still creeped, I even tried running wastegate pressure and the car still hit 21.7 psi -__-, after countless revisions and hitting boost cut a few times I noticed a drop in my idle vacuum, first thing popped in my mind was sh*t the damn ring land, today I puled the plugs and did a compression test for a peace of mind, heres what i got, im not sure of how the numbering of the cylinders go but O well,
Passenger side: Rear 140 PSI, Front 140 PSI.
Drivers Side: Rear 135 PSI, Front 145 PSI. My car is at 5200 miles, little disappointed in the slight drop on the one, I have no smoke on start up and no smoke through the oil filler.
Realizing my options are, ditch my CBE, ditch my intake or get a catted down pipe, Ive decided upon EWG due to cost comparison vs a catted DP and will be working with Eric at TP to tune it out. I wish I had the funds to throw an intercooler and fuel pump on too One thing I did wish I did was throw some one step colders in whilst it was apart today.
Here are some pics of the car
