Backyard Burning in Marion County
Illegal backyard burning is one of the leading causes of fires in the state of Florida.
In fact, in the month of March, there were 17 illegal burns in Marion County alone.
A backyard burn can start small, calm and controlled, but there's a chance it could end up escaping and beocming a wildfire.
Currently there is a voluntary burn ban in Marion County which includes campfires as well as backyard burning.
"What they are saying when there is a voluntary burn ban is it's just really not a good idea to burn. The weather conditions make it dangerous," said Jessica Greene who is the Marion County Fire Rescue Public Information Officer.
When the time comes and the burn ban is not in affect, you will be allowed to burn in your backyard, but there are specific guidelines you have to follow.
Lieutenant Miguel Ortiz said you are only allowed to burn yard debris like tree limbs and scrubs.
Citizens cannot burn garbage, furniture or other materials.
"These are the two ways you can burn in Marion County. You have the non-combustible barrel and over here you have a burn pile that you can burn, but this can't be over eight feet in diameter," said Lt. Ortiz.
The earliest time you can burn is 9 a.m. and the fire has to be put out one hour before sunset.
"The setbacks are you can't be within 150 feet from a neighboring structure. You can't be 50 feet form a paved road," said Ortiz.
The burn must be 25 feet from your home, other structures, forests and brush.
Greene said keeping your eyes on the fire is a must.
"All it takes is one gust of wind and you have an outdoor fire," said Greene.
Keeping a source of water close by is also imperative.
If you are caught burning illegally for the first time, you will be fined $50.00, but if your fire escapes it could be much more pricey.
"If your burning in your back yard and the fire get out of control and escapes and it burns 160 acres and someone else's home down, there is a potential that you could be responsible for those damages," said Greene.
So for now, its best to simply not strike the match.
The United States Forest Service has also banned camp and cooking fires in the Ocala National Forest, unless you are at a campsite that has fire rings.

During the Civil War, Smith and Wesson sold thousands of little single-action revolvers to soldiers. These were little .22 short and .32 rimfire revolvers that enlisted men bought with their own money to stick in their pockets or waistbands before marching off to battle.
The tactics of the day had soldiers line up on each side and fire their Springfields at eachother then affix bayonets and charge. The smart ones who bought these little S&Ws saw the charging Reb\'s or Yanks and drew their little mouseguns and emptied them into the oncoming enemy before joining the melee.
That\'s the way that I would plan to use a mousegun. They might not knock the enemy down but they will soften the enemy before the main event.

Hunter Smith, a 11 year old male from the Internet asks on November 18, 1999,How does the amount of air inside a soccer ball affect the distance it travels? And how is the amount of air inflated in a soccer ball determined?
viewed 15709 times
The volume of a sphere is given by the formula 4/3 pi r^3, where pi is about 3.14159, and r is the radius of your soccer ball. Once you know the volume of the ball, you can figure out the volume of air in it. The mass of air will depend on its pressure, but I don't think the mass of air in the soccer ball will make much difference in the distance it travels. Of course the pressure will make a difference because an underinflated ball will behave differently when kicked due to its changed elasticity. When a ball is under inflated it will have less elastic behaviour and energy will be wasted in the collision of your foot with the ball, hence an under inflated ball should not travel as far. There are lots of websites that explain the math behind spheres, for example try the Math League for ways to calculate the volume of a sphere. Or better yet try soccer physics for a ton of fun information about the math and physics of soccer and soccer balls.

The programming is poor to allow the chimes to interrupt each other. The audio design of both "yellow" and "red" situations having the same chime (at least that's apparently how it is on my cheap 328) is not desirable either. Low tire pressure or engine overheating should draw more attention than the exterior temperature, seatbelts (I'm already getting to it!), or ~60 miles of fuel range left.
I agree an arpeggio would be nice at start up when there are multiple items it wants to communicate... I hope that BMW's flagship vehicles handle this more gracefully than my car does.

Adding the PERRIN Subframe Lockdown System adds rigidity and stability to the rear end diff. This kit eliminates all driveline slop and the annoying thud that can be heard shifting from first to second. The results can be felt the first time you take off from a stop light at almost any speed. I have to say that this has to be one of the best bang for your buck mods I have ever done. For more information click here.
Needed tools:
1) 12mm socket or wrench
2) 17mm socket or wrench
3) Jack and Jack stand
Step 1) Raise the vehicle to a desired height allowing you enough room to move freely. For this you will want to use jack stands to support the vehicle while working on the cross support. NEVER WORK ON A VEHICLE SUPPORTED ONLY BY A JACK.
Step 2) Time to remove tension from the differential, this will allow you to lower the differential stabilizer. Youll need to get a floor jack for this next step. Placing the jack under the differential youll want to raise the differential roughly .5.
Step 3) Using a 17mm socket remove the 17mm nuts securing the differential to the cross support. Remove the studs from the differential and the cross support by using the Jam-Nut method. (this is where you jam two 17mm nuts together on one stud. Then you can remove the stud by unscrewing the nut closest to the differential). Repeat this process on the remaining stud. If this method doesnt work youll have to use a stud-extracting tool.
Step 4) Once the two studs are removed from the differential and the cross support you will remove the two 17mm bolts and nuts securing the differential stabilizer to the rear sub frame. Its now time to lower the differential, you will only need to lower it slightly to allow for clearance. If needed you may want to remove or lower the exhaust system allowing your self even more working room.
Step 5) Remove or lower the differential stabilizer from the sub frame. After you have done this you can install the 4 smaller red urethane bushings around the OEM Bushings center mounting points. (2 bushings installed on each side)
Step 6) After all 4 of the PERRIN bushings are in place you can now reinstall the differential support brace into the chassis. (Dont fully tighten just yet)
Step 7) Raise the differential back into the car, line up the stud holes with the differential support holes and reinstall the studs.
Step 8) Tighten the differential stabilizer support bolts to 70ft-lbs. Now go back and tighten the nuts on bolts on the sub frame to 70ft-lbs.
Step 9) Time to install the rear sub frame lock out bolts. Youll want to locate the empty threaded holes on the rear sub frame. Screw the bolt and bushing into the empty hole on each side of the car. Tighten the bolts down to 60ft-lbs. (BOLTS AND SPACERS MAY MAK SOME POPPING SOUNDS WHILE THE BOLTS ARE BEING TIGHTENED INTO THE CHASSIS, THIS IS NORMAL)
Step 10) Locate the differential front support beam and the 2 outer bolts securing it to the chassis. Remove the passenger side large bolt securing the front support beam to the chassis, and the two bolts securing the plate to the chassis.
Step 11) Pull down the front support brace until there is enough room to place the new bushings on top of the OEM bushings.
Step 12) Reinstall the plate back onto the chassis and tighten the 12mm bolts to 25ft-lbs. Install the large 17mm bolt through the bushings and tighten to 100ft-lbs.
Step 13) Repeat step 10, 11, and 12 on the drivers side.
Step 14) Lower vehicle and test drive.

Ghorbel Chosen As MVC Men's Tennis Player Of The Week
ST. LOUIS, Mo. - The Missouri Valley Conference has announced that Drake junior Anis Ghorbel (Sfax, Tunisia) has been selected as the MVC Men's Tennis Player of the Week. This marks the seventh weekly accolade for a Drake men's tennis player this season and the fifth in Ghorbel's career, including three this spring.
Ghorbel turned in a perfect 7-0 combined singles/doubles ledger this past week, helping the then No. 45 Bulldogs to a 4-0 mark.
He earned two clinching points, including the match winner with a 6-4, 6-3 decision against Michael Tenzer of Green Bay last Sunday (March 25).
His come-from-behind 4-6, 6-3, 7-5 victory over Gaston Cuadranti enabled Drake to garner a 4-3 road victory at SMU.
On the year, Ghorbel owns a team-high 40-10 combined singles/doubles record, including a team-best 23-5 singles mark.
Ghorbel and the Bulldogs (17-2) open defense of their 2011 Missouri Valley Conference title hosting Creighton on Saturday (March 31) at the Roger Knapp Tennis Center. Match time is slated for 10:00 a.m.

C4 identification
Another question for you guru's ;)
My recently purchased C4 does not have the id tag on it so i took the casting numbers hoping you can help id the year of box so i can order some parts.
On the main case D2 AP-7006-F What does this tell us?
On the servo cover DOAP-70027-A This also has R as the servo type- will this be ok for a hard shifting street/ strip car or should i get H or another servo?
Edited to add i found some round date castings one has just "5" on it and another has "13" and "2" on it. Do these give the date away?
Re: C4 identification
The trans is a 1972.
"R" servo should work fine.
Re: C4 identification
Great thanks for that
Re: C4 identification
Your build code should be PEF which says it is from a 351.
If you got the bell housing with the transmission it may be deeper than the 302 bell. It could have used a 164 tooth ring gear and the larger converter. You can change the bell housing to the smaller 302 unit and use all the 302 gear with it or switch to the larger 351 bell and converter and use them on your 302. There is no advantage to the larger parts.
The "R" servo is fine for any application up to 500 - 600 hp.
If it were mine I would use the stock 302 parts to avoid any future match problems.

learning to really love your curls..
hey all!
my name is lisa and im new to the forum.
for years i have been blow drying and flat ironing my 3a curls bc it wasnt "sexy or cool" to have curly hair.
spending the time on it i would always freak out and not do many styles or even touch it much bc i was afraid of it getting greasy and wasting my time of what i just worked out.
i would literally just wear it boring half up half down. EVERYDAY. thats it. if i wear it all down i feel like i am always touching it and it gets greasy.
starting last week i was like i am so unhappy and its actually get me upset my straight hair even though thats what i would "kill for"!
i went to my local target and bought of bunch of hair products and a diffuser, and although i am not really used to it yet. i am kinda digging how it looks...
it has alot of volume and i am not afraid to wear my hair all down, plus i feel like styles look more sexy! i am not afraid to do different styles as much bc it takes only like 10 -15 minutes to do my hair now...i scrunch diffuse & then retouch any stubborn curls (i have some 2b-c spots)it really is like a freeing experience. i went in the rain today and i didnt duck for cover or wrap a bunch of crap over my head to keep my hair dry from frizzing.
sometimes i look in the mirror and i miss my straight hair. but i keep reminding myself that this is what i was born with and i gotta try my hardest to rock it and eventually will totally fall in love.
so my question is to you guys. how did you learn to love your curls if u used to hate them in the passed.
Hair Journey!!
Hey..I lost my curls, but it was after I dyed my hair. I started a blog about my hair journey back to my curly hair...please follow & subscribe, I'll have new tips, product reviews, results, opinions, ideas, etc. & there's more to come. I'm hoping that my blog will help other curly haired queens get back to healthy, natural curls!
Check it out: cimonique.blogspot.com
So far I have positive results w/ some products that i'm using in my curls, I've been learning how to really treat my curls and love them! :) hopefully my blog helps you too!
Welcome, nickysmom13! I fought my curls for years. It was a daily battle of soup cans in the 70s, hot rollers in the 80s, blow dryers and buns in the 90s and then I discovered the flat iron. I can't tell you how many of those I burned out before I burned out. I just got tired of fighting. In doing some research, I stumbled on this website and never looked back. I went through several phases. At first I was excited, then cautiously optimistic, then frustrated, followed by determined and finally I am wavering between acceptance and thrilled.
Hang in there and don't let the failed experiments get you down. Healthy hair is beautiful hair. Even if my curls aren't always perfectly coiled, my hair always looks healthy. I ain't complaining!
Good luck to you! Keep us posted on your progress!
thank you so much girls!!
sometimes i feel like i wanna just take out the brushes and go but even when i do that i am unhappy!
why must some of us feel like straight hair is better even if the style sucks!!! so annoying..lol

ATI Radeon 9x00
tweak guide
Written by
McGuire on August 29th, 2003
ATI Radeon official website |
Catalyst drivers
Look for
videocard prices.
Radeon prices:
All in Wonder.
If something should
be said about ATI, is the impressive way they managed to
accomplish many things in a relatively short timeframe.
Beyond releasing the first truly DirectX 9 graphics card,
they also got to beat NVIDIA in terms of performance and
drivers development, which still happens to come along
extremely well, and that last thing is something we probably
never have thought just a couple of years back.
This guide will take
you through configuring your system for best
compatibility/performance along with your ATI Radeon
graphics card, covering options available with the latest
Catalyst Drivers. For reference sake, this guide was
prepared using an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro AGP videocard using an
Abit NV7-133R nForce (AGP 4X) and later an Abit NF7-S nForce
2 (AGP 8X) motherboards running Windows XP Service Pack 1
and Catalyst 3.5/3.6 Drivers.
We will start by covering basic
troubleshooting steps and general settings, then in the next
few pages we will extend onto more
specific Direct3D &
OpenGL settings, performance
comparison between settings and image quality
shots to showcase differences in better detail.
Putting first things
first, initially you should make sure you have the latest
drivers installed for your graphics card. You can find links
to manufacturers in our
own drivers section, although should you wish to stick
reference drivers, here you have a direct
link to those instead. You should check you have
installed the latest version of
Microsoft's DirectX installed.
It is also highly
important to have the latest Drivers for your Motherboard
installed as well, particularly the AGP Drivers (If you've
an AGP Graphics card that is). Installing any available BIOS
update for your Motherboard may also be of some help. You
can verify your AGP Drivers are functioning correctly
download & run NVIDIA's
AGP Memory utility.
If the values shown
are 0 you'll likely need to update them. You can find
links to updated Motherboard Chipset Drivers at our
OS Updates section.
In the system BIOS it
is recommended to disable the following settings, if
available - Hidden refresh, VGA palette snoop,
DAC snoop & any Caching/Shadowing
options, e.g. Video BIOS Shadowing.
General Settings
Open Display
Properties, click on the Settings tab then the
Advanced button. Now select the Options tab.
You may set these
options to your own preference: Re-activate all warning
messages, Enable ATI taskbar icon application,
Show ATI icon on taskbar & Disable quick resolution
Reduce DVI
frequency on high-resolution displays.
If you are experiencing display corruption when connected to
a DVI Flat Panel display via the DVI-Output at high
resolutions (1024x768 +) try Ticking this option to
resolve the issue. In all other instances you can leave this
Alternate DVI
operational mode. If you are
experiencing display corruptions when connected to a DVI
Flat Panel display via the DVI-Output try ticking
this option to resolve the issue. In all other instances you
can leave this Unticked.
Now select the
SMARTGART tab.
SMARTGART is a
diagnostic program that determines your bus (PCI/AGP)
capabilities & adjusts settings to their most optimal
(Stability wise) based on the results obtained. This is done
everytime you install/update your Graphics Drivers via
installer & as such you (generally) shouldn't need to adjust
the options available here. That said I'll cover them for
sake of completeness.
Set AGP Speed.
Available options here can vary depending on the AGP
implementation of your motherboard, e.g. with the Abit
NV7-133R nForce (AGP 4X) motherboard only AGP 4X is
available at highest despite, whereas with Abit NF7-S nForce
2 (AGP 8X) motherboard 8X is available. As SMARTGART
does, it would be best to set this to whatever the most
stable mode of operation your motherboard supports is.
Currently for the most part there is little, if any,
noticeable performance variance between available AGP modes
– 1X, 2X, 4X & 8X so it is not
necessary to select the highest mode to achieve best
performance. Be sure to also have the AGP mode is the BIOS
set to the same value also if available. SMARGART verifies
the new AGP mode after a reboot is done.
Fast Write.
Fast writes allows the CPU to send data to the Graphics card
without having to go through RAM, making it a far more
optimal approach. That said in reality most benchmarks done
on this have shown it to be of little actual benefit, in
some cases performing slower, not mention on other systems
it causes stability problems. As a result you might want to
run a few benchmarks before choosing whether or not to leave
this On or Off. On some systems this can cause
stability problems & where it does you should set Off.
Retest All.
Click this button to have SMARTGART retest your graphics bus
capabilities & adjust available options based on the
results. Generally you shouldn't need to do this beyond when
installing newer Drivers (Which it does so automatically),
though should you start experiencing problems try selecting
this to allow SMARTGART to detect more appropriate settings.
To access Advanced
SMARTGART options click on Start, Run,
type in smartgart & hit Ok (Again, these
settings are automatically determined whenever SMARTGART is
run & are covered more for sake of completeness).
PCI Write/Read.
These features allow the PCI Graphics card to write/read to
system memory (As opposed to Video memory).
AGP Write/Read.
These features allow the AGP Graphics card to write/read to
system memory (As opposed to Video memory).
Retest PCI/AGP
Write/Read. Using these options you can test
individual AGP/PCI features using SMARTGART without
affecting any other graphics bus options.
Retest All.
Click this button to have SMARTGART retest your bus
capabilities & adjust available options based on the
results. Generally you shouldn't need to do this beyond when
installing newer Drivers (Which it does so automatically),
though should you start experiencing problems try selecting
this to allow SMARTGART to detect more appropriate settings.

Applications of Genetic Engineering to Crop Improvement
Volume 10 of the series Advances in Agricultural Biotechnology pp 561-604
Secondary Products in Tissue Culture

Secondary products in nature generally are closely associated with differentiation of plant cells. They are synthesized in a specific tissue at a certain developmental stage of a plant. Since the same genes for a secondary metabolite, e.g. an antho-cyanin of flower colour, are not only present in the cells of flower petals but also in all other living cells of the plant, there should be some regulatory mechanism responsible for the activation of the genes at the right cells and at the right time. When plant cells are cultured in vitro with an appropriate combination of plant hormones, they proliferate as an unorganized mass of cells. In some, but not necessarily all, of these morphologically de-differentiated cells, it is possible, at least in some plant species, to activate structural genes for secondary metabolism, thus producing in vitro the identical compounds as accumulate in differentiated tissues of the plant.

Instances form the bottom layer of the Service Configuration Facility repository tree. An instance is the child of a service and has two sets of children:
Property Groups These hold configuration information specific to this instance. See scf_pg_create(3SCF) ,
See smf(5) for information about instances.
An scf_instance_t is an opaque handle that can be set to a single instance at any given time. The scf_instance_create() function allocates and initializes a new scf_instance_t bound to handle. The scf_instance_destroy() function destroys and frees inst.
The scf_instance_handle() function retrieves the handle to which inst is bound.
The scf_inst_get_parent() function sets svc to the service that is the parent of inst.
The scf_instance_get_name() function retrieves the name of the instance to which inst is set.
The scf_service_get_instance() function sets inst to the child instance of the service svc specified by name.
The scf_service_add() function sets inst to a new child instance of the service svc specified by name.
The scf_instance_delete() function deletes the instance to which inst is set, as well all of the children of the instance.
Upon successful completion, scf_instance_create() returns a new scf_instance_t. Otherwise it returns NULL.
Upon successful completion, scf_instance_handle() returns the handle to which inst is bound. Otherwise, it returns NULL.
Upon successful completion, scf_instance_get_name() returns the length of the string written, not including the terminating null character. Otherwise it returns -1.

building Single Ended amps
Hi, I am new to this forum, although I've been looking at it for a while now. It looks like one of the better, if not the best places on the internet to gain knowledge.
I first fell in love with tubes as a guitar player, in fact, the only solid state amplifier I own anymore is the one my dad bought me as a kid, and only because I can't part with it for that reason.
I later figured out they made audio equipment out of tubes, and got my first Eico ST70 and rebuilt it, and I still use it to this day.
Since then, I've collected a garage full of goodies, amps from old consoles, record players, you name it, if it had tubes in it, I bought it. I've rebuilt lots of magnavox and zenith amplifiers with good success, some of them sounded good, others sounded not so good.
Right now, I have 2 amps I would like to make an attempt at turning into REALLY good amps. I have lots actually, but would like to start getting ideas for two.
One is an RCA 6v6 (with black plate tubes in it) unit out of a suitcase style stereo record player which had 3 speakers. The wiring for the speakers was a joke, and this unit had two dissimilar output transformers. I don't even know what they were trying to do there. I simplified it and put in a pair of zenith OPTs from some SE el84 amp I had laying around that had a burned up power tranny. I also eliminated the common cathode on the 12ax7, and added a little feedback. The amp sounds ok. Much better than it did, but I would like to find a schematic for a REALLY good SE 6v6 amplifier that I can build on a new chassis using the iron I have here.
The second project was a really interesting disaster from the past, an el84 SE stereo amp with 3 OPTs.
Somehow they powered up three speakers by making a hybrid-- combining both sides into one larger P/P OPT and supplying the sound to the single bass speaker that way. Each channel has a tiny SE OPT that powered the left and right HF speakers. These speakers were apparently (on purpose) wired out of phase. Perhaps the different phase is how they powered up that P/P OPT for the bass channel. I followed a schematic I found online and converted it to a regular SE stereo amp. I added a small amount of feedback, this amp sounded HARSH (read: horrible). The feedback made it sound good. This one sounds good, except for some bass distortion, and a general poor low end. I'm certain that's because the output transformers are so tiny.
I know there are a million single ended EL84/12ax7 amps out there. Which one is the best?
Any schematics/links would be appreciated, as well as personal experience... ie.. has anyone on here actually built a 6v6 SE amp?
Furthermore... I keep reading here and elsewhere that people are against negative feedback for whatever reason.... But in the cases of both these amps that didnt have any they sounded horrible until I added it. Why is that?
I know this is a long winded post, and future ones should be shorter.
I'm interested in anything anyone has to say.. or suggestions.

As for your situation, pentodes almost always produce more of the nasty sounding third and higher order harmonics. SE amps that use low-u triode finals can sound pretty good with no NFB applied at all since triodes tend to produce mainly second harmonics, which aren't so objectionable as third and higher harmonics. Also, pentodes have higher r(p)'s, and so worse speaker damping. These require NFB if they are to sound good. However, even adding a few db's of NFB to a triode SE design can improve its sonics. (Of course, there is always the possibility that some folks like the effect of the added second harmonics that SE triode amps produce.)

Re: building Single Ended amps
Usually, it is to give the impression of a wider soundstage and is quite common on 'BoomBoxes'. [Mono centre and anti-phase L/R]
If it ain't broke, break it !! Then fix it again. It's called DIY !

Triode wired 6V6s sound VERY good. The O/P trafos you already have are quite suitable.
Simple circuitry along the lines of the DECWARE SE84 using a 5965 for voltage gain and triode wired 6V6s will work very well. High efficiency speakers are essential, as power O/P will be about 2 WPC.

Most Arkansans Feel Good about Their Personal Finances
Fayetteville , Arkansas -
Click here for more information about the survey, research partners, and summary documents.
FAYETTEVILLE, AR (News release) - A majority of Arkansas consumers expects their personal financial situations to improve or remain the same within the next year. Their level of optimism is higher than overall regional expectations. At the same time, they are less optimistic about future business conditions than the overall region. These observations are found in results from the second phase of the Arvest Consumer Sentiment Survey released today.
In addition to the overall Consumer Sentiment Index released in July, the Arvest Consumer Sentiment Survey also includes a Current Conditions Index and a Consumer Expectations Index, continuing to follow the model of the national Survey of Consumers produced by the University of Michigan.
In Arkansas, 52 percent of consumers expect their personal financial situation to remain the same over the next 12 months, while 28 percent expect it to be better over the same period. Only 20 percent expect their personal financial situation to be worse than it is currently. By comparison, 27 percent of consumers in the three-state region of Arkansas, Oklahoma and Missouri expect their personal financial situation to improve and 51 percent expect it to be the same. In Missouri, only 19 percent of consumers expect their situation to improve and 53 percent expect it to remain the same.
However, when looking at expectations of business conditions, Arkansans were less optimistic than their neighboring states. Only 22 percent of Arkansas consumers expect business conditions to be favorable in the next year, compared with 30 percent of consumers in Missouri and 32 percent in Oklahoma. This trend continued when looking at expectations over the next five years, with 33 percent of Arkansas consumers expecting positive business conditions compared with 36 percent in Missouri and 41 percent in Oklahoma. This long-term pessimism is also reflected in Arkansas consumers' expectations of widespread unemployment over the next five years, with 61 percent of Arkansans expecting widespread unemployment compared with 57 percent in Missouri and 53 percent in Oklahoma.
The Arvest Consumer Sentiment Survey is conducted by the Center for Business and Economic Research in the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. The University of Oklahoma's Public Opinion Learning Laboratory conducted the 1,200 phone surveys.
In discussing the results, Kathy Deck, CBER director and lead economist for the survey, said, "Our first consumer sentiment survey results show us that Arkansans are generally positive about their own future financial prospects, but have deep worries about the trajectory of the overall economy. As an economist, I have one eye on the improving employment situation in the state and one eye on the declining labor force to help explain why consumers feel the way they do. For those who are employed in Arkansas, conditions are clearly improving, but there is reasonable nervousness about the people who have had to retire early or who are not getting on the career track that they anticipated."
The Current Conditions Index is tabulated from the answers to two questions on the survey: "How is your current financial situation compared with a year ago?" and "What do you think of buying conditions over the next six months?" The Current Conditions Index for Arkansas is 74.7, slightly below that of Missouri (77.6) and Oklahoma (82.2). The regional Current Conditions Index is 78.7.
The Consumer Expectations Index is tabulated from the answers to three survey questions: "How do you expect your financial situation to change in the next year?" "How do you think business conditions will be in a year?" and "How do you expect business conditions will be in five years?" Arkansas' Consumer Expectations Index (62.7) is lower than that of Missouri (62.9) and Oklahoma (72.6). The regional Consumer Expectations Index is 66.7.
Arvest Bank's sponsorship of this survey is due to its desire to provide beneficial data for its customers and communities. The data provides a reading of how consumers are feeling about the economy in the states where the bank operates. These first results give better, more localized, information than has been available in the past. Because consumers drive the majority of economic activity, it is important to simply know where people in the state stand in their views. Additionally, with future results, consumers, as well as the business community, will be able to see if sentiment is trending up or down with sentiment nationally.
The Arvest Consumer Sentiment Survey will be conducted twice a year, with the next survey expected to be completed in late November. With each study, the index score will be released first, followed by a second release on consumer outlook including the Current Conditions Index and the Consumer Expectations Index and a third release on savings and spending expectations.

We're excited about getting the season underway. We're obviously tired of practicing against each other, look forward to the challenge that Liberty brings. They are a pretty explosive offensive team, a lot of experience returning at their skills position.
They've been nationally ranked last season. Passing efficiency, top 10 total offense, scoring offense, first down offense, passing offense. Led by a kid that's really a good athlete. Kind of reminds us a lot of the Godfrey kid that we played against last year at Central Florida. Mike Brown is the quarterback. All-American receiver. All-American kicker.
Our defense is going to have to really be ready to take control of this one and contain Mike Brown.
Now that Mike Glennon, it's his turn
now, what are your expectations of him? His
teammates are saying that guy really appears
to be ready. Is that your feeling also?
Well, I think he's shown that through preseason camp. I think the thing that any quarterback has to do is they have to operate within the framework of the offense. They have to get us headed the right direction. They have to distribute the ball on time to the right receivers in the right spot when we ask that of them in the passing game, then provide leadership in the huddle. I think he will be capable of doing all those things.
I think certainly this is his first game as a starter. His upside is tremendous. We expect him to get better each and every week as we go along for the next couple years here. I think a lot of people are excited about watching him play on Saturday.
What are his best physical assets
just from the standpoint of what he can do?
Well, I think he has a great arm. I mean, he has the capability to make any throw that has to be made on the football field.
I think he has a very good feel of the pocket. He's able to avoid the rush, buy himself some time when he has to. Any quarterback's best when he can go back and put his back foot down and deliver the ball.
He's got a little pocket presence about him. He's got great confidence in his ability. I think that carries over to his teammates.
Coach, what is Rashard Smith's role
on your team?
He's playing wide receiver.
How do you see him fitting in there?
Well, when you break it down, we're really happy with what we've seen out of Amerson and Wilson on defense. If he's not going to be in the game at corner, we play generally just two corners as the game goes along. We played six wide receivers.
Going through preseason camp, knowing he was a two-time Player of the Year in the state of Georgia with the ball in his hands, it was a natural for us to ask him to come over and take a look on offense.
I think he's still learning. But he's shown the ability that he does a lot of things natural at that position. We play six wide receivers. Gets him an opportunity and us an opportunity to get another athlete on the field. It seemed like a logical move to make to get him in the lineup and get one of our better players on the field.
Were you surprised at all that
George Bryan didn't go pro last year? Do you
think his growth, especially the last couple
years, overcoming a couple of incidents,
played a role in him coming back to school and
continuing that process in his life?
He never mentioned to me last year that he was thinking about leaving school. I had no inclination if that was there or not.
To my knowledge he was always coming back.
I think all kids go through a maturation process. Some are more publicized than others. Certainly the incident I think you're referring to, he was found not to be part of anything to do with that incident himself. I mean, it was guilt by association or being in the room, one way or another. Certainly in today's day and age, people rush to make a lot of decisions without knowing the facts of the situation.
Certainly his teammates elected him captain this year. I think it shows their confidence in him, shows the leadership that hopefully he will be able to bring to the offensive side of the football and continues to be an integral part of our pass offense.
He was certainly good enough to
have gone. How good is he and is there a
player that you've maybe coached before that
you compare him to?
Probably the best one that ended up playing in the NFL for us was a kid named Sean Ryan. He's a little bit like him. Probably a little more accomplished in the passing game. Sean was a little tougher at the line of scrimmage blocking.
That's something we're working with George on all the time, and it's something that he needs to learn to do better. It's not that he's not good at it. It's certainly one of the things we want to work with him on, at the point of attack being a little bit stronger and more physical.
We haven't seen Liberty play a
whole lot of ACC teams. Were you involved at
all in the scheduling of this game?
No. This was done prior to my coming.
Do you know Coach Rocco at all?
Yeah, I know him through my time when he played, I was coaching at Virginia, coached against him when he was a player. We've crossed paths a couple of times in coaching circles. He's been on staffs that I've coached against.
He's really done a nice job. They won four straight conference titles down there. This is I guess the next step. Reading about them, their whole focus is to get to the playoffs this year.
They certainly feel they're capable of doing that. They have good skilled kids and a good scheme.
Knowing him they're going to be sound on defense because that's his background. It's a 3-4 situation. It's something that we spent a little extra time preparing for in camp.

Betty White: Ratings Queen
Posted Friday August 27, 2010 10:52 AM GMT
She can do no wrong, and Betty White is riding high on a ratings wave thanks to her new show "Hot in Cleveland."
According to a report, the "Golden Girls" actress' new gig has become the top sitcom of the year after raking in 4.2 million viewers.
In a statement, TV Land president Larry W. Jones said they're just getting started on the primetime juggernaut.
"Hot in Cleveland's ability to attract viewers from around the globe is a testament to the dynamic leading ladies – Valerie Bertinelli, Jane Leeves, Wendie Malick and Betty White – as well as to the fantastic creative vision of 'Frasier' veteran, Suzanne Martin. We are excited about producing 20 more episodes of this global hit."

Sova's thread got me thinkin.....
After hearing that guy wine about what Christians ask him, specifically about morality, I had a thought. Bear with me.
Why aren't more atheists/non-believers murders, thieves, and down right immoral people?
The reason the winy Atheist video got me thinking about this is because the guy thinks the question "Do you have morals?" Is ridiculous. But why? What's the point of morals for someone who believes they are an accident?
The bible refers to our life on earth as a puff of air. LIke on a cold morning when you exhale and you see your breath. In the grand scheme of things, that's our lives. That breath has little effect on anything. What would be the point of 'being good'?
Our base morality is all founded in some form of religion or another. I'm not saying just the ten commandments, there are plenty of other influences. Either way though, those morals are derived from the fear or respect to a deity. Which non-believers and atheists have no care for. Why do they then still behave? Does it come off as lunacy to anybody else?

E-participation in Local GovernmentPublished Sun 6 Oct 2002
E-government, once the flavour of the month for New Labour politicians, has been slipping down the scale of political priorities in recent months as the government struggles with the attempt to reform its core public services. This does not augur well for attempts to get all public services online by 2005 and it augurs even less well for e-democracy, which has already become overshadowed and marginalised by policies dealing with the challenge of electronic service delivery.
This book looks at new evidence of the scale and practice of current e-democracy in Local Authorities in England and Wales. It presents some Good Practice Guidelines and a new strategic rationale for local and national government to take e-democracy policy more seriously.

text: MILPITAS, Calif., Jan. 28, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Gigamon ®, a leading provider of Traffic Visibility Fabric™ solutions, has announced a new high density 40Gb blade, the GigaPORT-Q08 for the GigaVUE ® H Series Chassis, which further addresses the scalability and visibility needs of data center managers as they meet the challenges of increasing traffic volume within data centers. The technology will be on show at Cisco Live London '13, Jan. 28 at the ExCeL London Exhibition and Convention Centre in London, UK. Gigamon's flagship solution, the high-performance, high-density GigaVUE H Series, represents the latest generation of purpose-built technology to handle up to 2.5Tb of monitored traffic, delivering it intelligently to the appropriate application, security, or performance management systems. With the addition of the GigaPORT-Q08 blade, pervasive visibility scales to increasingly dense data center network architectures, whether end-of-row (EoR) or top-of-rack (ToR) deployments. "The rapid growth in the amount of information traversing networks and the increasing need for workload flexibility in an on-demand data center has created the need for pervasive visibility that can scale to accommodate the increased traffic demands," said Bob Laliberte of Enterprise Strategy Group. "As enterprises and data centers respond to the ever-increasing volume of network traffic and the need to effectively and efficiently manage their environment, they look to Gigamon for a scalable, pervasive, and intelligent monitoring infrastructure. The new 40Gb solution delivers the next wave in higher density deployments, while also enabling pervasive traffic visibility for monitoring, management and security tools for both physical and virtual networks," said Huy Nguyen, Sr. Director of Product Management at Gigamon. The new GigaPORT-Q08 blade offers line rate performance and connectivity with eight 40Gb ports. This allows the new blade to quadruple the 40Gb connectivity density of the GigaVUE H Series while providing high-speed traffic ingress from SPAN ports, inter-node stacking and aggregation uplinks at up to 40Gb. The blade also supports direct-connection to monitoring, management and security tools.

In the common tv show, "What Not To Wear" those of us who are to some extent "wardrobe challenged" revise what to impairment by heeding the advice of experts and by winning a weeklong herculean expression in our closets and riddingability ourselves of property we genuinely shouldn't wear, even then again they are recurrently our "favorites"and are the maximum homely. Can the same generalization apply to those who are "success challenged"? By heeding the guidance of experts and by taking a time-consuming nasty exterior at ourselves, can we learn what to do to succeed? Firstborn we have to determine those belongings in our lives that we obligation to get rid of. Erstwhile we place them, we can set off the oft sore action of getting rid of them. Often, righteous as with the clothes, more than a few of these things will be our "favorites" and will be what we are the most cosy next to.
So fairly than openhanded you a top 10 catalogue of "How to Succeed" (which in all probability we have already detected and tends to go in one ear and out the opposite) Present is a top 10 roll of "How to Pledge Failure" Remember, this is for all the populace who poverty to have goals, but not pull off them.
1. Sort your goals unfocused - Once location your goals, use adjectives specified as "more" and "some." Goals suchlike "I impoverishment to generate more than money" or "I want to miss one weight" literally warranty your progress will be bottom. Be as namby-pamby as achievable.Post ads:

Beige. Medium / Softsoap Moisturizing Body Wash, Honeysuckle & Orange / SOL Cup Company - Paper Hot Cups, Eight Ounces, Maroon
2. Bring in your goals nasty to project - A righteous way to do this is to livelihood shifting your mind on the inventory of your purpose. If you are reasoning a content such as as: "I deprivation to own a red, navy or sickly Warship or in recent times a Mustang", after you are manifestly on the rightly track. If you unbroken that aim deep-seated unwaveringly in your mind, you are literally guaranteed you'll ne'er go above a used Kia. No offence to those Kia owners out within as you get the spear.
3. Imagine and articulate negatively nearly your goals - Try victimization lines like-minded "I can't" and "It's too hard". Goals such as as "I can't go an entrepreneur; I can't put into any business in marketing; I can't have a chat to race I don't know; It's too complex to hold on more responsibility" will clearly sustenance you at the foot of the yield and natural event food fasten.
4. Have nothing to do with planning progressive stairs - Lift a dream - even a precise objective look-alike "I will threefold my turnover by this instance side by side year". After only resign from it as-isability. Don't write fallen any tasks or ladder you'll entail to total in dictation to reach it. A moment ago reflect the objective a wishing and naught more. Creatingability a gradual concoct will one and only bother matters because it's all too smooth to return exploit on plain ladder. Deed in the itinerary of your goal would head to occurrence and you emphatically don't poverty that.Post ads:

5. Don't Do - Natter - Because chat is easier than action, this footfall is one of the easiest steps for you to takings. Try to teem up as more of your day with socialization as viable. Discuss something like all the property you will do someday or that you were gonna do. Retributory receive convinced you don't mire it up by doing thing profitable. Performance is your force. Clench your excuses!
6. Pause until you are intended - Let's external body part it, it's considerably too hard to go cardiopulmonary exercise or ajar a shared money statement once you simply don't get the impression similar to it. So just hang about. Waiting gives you the peace of head that someday, you may well do something. But not yet, the temporal arrangement isn't permission and you aren't actuated anyway.
7. Don't set a day of the month - Environment a solar day once you trust to finish your end is too a great deal constraint. Who inevitably it? Clearly not you if you impoverishment to get round advancement. You cognize that goals near dates get done, so by not scene a day of the month you disdain production a committedness. You can maintain golf stroke off shove.
8. Index why it's out - Now we are effort into the psychosomatic crippled of failed. This is moderately feasibly your top instrument hostile victory because it destroys probability and hope. So as in a minute as possible, set foray several time to compile a long-lived enumerate of how impractical your purpose really is. No situation what your reference is, I am in no doubt you can go up near tons of reasons why it's hopeless. Be creative, net up both if you have to.
9. Don't investigation your purpose - You're the species of guy or gal who likes to "wing it." Linguistic process roughly how others have succeeded achieving a dream correspondent to you is newly a refuse of example. Or else of standing on their shoulders, they should be vertical on yours! Sure, they can have defeat dumbfounding probability to get from condition to CEO or 450lbs to 180lbs - but they were likely conscionable "lucky" at least. Don't read anything that promises to assist you get to your goal.
10. Suggest of anything excluding your hope - Here's different psychological plan of action that will put you on the fast-paced line to breakdown. Muse of thing bar for your objective. Why project happening once here are masses of clouds and TV reruns to have a sneaking suspicion that about? And patch you're at it, thieve motion on these flightsability of puff alternatively of your dream. Thieve the smooth path, that's the lone way you can go amiss in dictation example.
To conclude, I cognise you might be a bit beleaguered near all the tough grind you have to do to stay away from motion your hope. You can even contemplate it's even more than career. Ne'er fear! You can do it. Print out a carbon copy and natural endowment it on your bath reflector. Appointment it in your business office. Read it both day. Assign these principals and you can achieve depths of nonaccomplishment you have plausibly never imagined!
Ok, for all of us who are even at modern times "success challenged" this is in fact a roll of WHAT NOT TO DO!
Examine all one and put more than a few musing into it. Keep in touch down the converse of these holding and craft your own in the flesh chronicle of "How to bankroll success" and the key present is, build it your of one's own chronicle. By doing this and applyingability the holding you have scrawled descending for yourself, you can to the full anticipate 2007 to be your select few period yet!
To your success,

What about klap? I kinda like p's


text: I have been going around to different auto dealers with a friend of mine who is in the market for a new car. So when we go into any GM dealers, while he is talking to salesmen, I just look around at what is on the lot. And I have noticed on a lot of 2006 models such as Impalas, Monte Carlo's, the new 07 SUV's and the Buick Lucerne's, they do not have HUD units on them. Even the most loaded up versions. So, I have not seen anything here on the gminside website(or any other GM websites) about the HUD option being done away with. But has it been discontinued? If it has, that's really a shame. My 04 Grand Prix GTP has it, and I've really got used to it. I especially like the "stealth" mode for night driving. But I guess this would be typical of GM. Just like the night vision aid on Cadillacs, they get rid of an option that is beginning to catch on with other car makers.

Growing Up in Queens
The Queens of my childhood was different from the Queens of my youth and I saw it morph again long after I moved across the river into "the city." Among the the most important lessons I learned was that change is the only constant in New York City.
Southeast Queens was much like many places in America in the mid '60s. Lots of children tumbling out of small wood frame houses. Although I didn't know their parents and we rarely went into each others homes, I knew every kid who lived on our block.
From childhood, what stays with me is the sound of the thwack of a stickball bat nailing a shot and the shouts as the runner raced around the makeshift bases trying to beat a pink Spalding as both headed for the chalked diamond designated home base. Another pleasant memory is the long hours spent jumping rope to the rhymes we'd sing as we skipped in and out -- 2 on time, don't be late, I've got a date at a quarter past 8, and if I'm late I'll miss that date, so 2 on time -- as the tick tick of a piece of clothesline hit the pavement.
We spent long summer hours on stoops--sometimes dancing to 45's coming from a record player set up near the window. The Jackson 5 were favorites. Sundays, after the many churches let out, there would be lines outside the German bakeries as we waited for the treat of creme-filled donuts.
This was still a time of tremendous innocence in the streets of Hollis/Queens Village. Or so I thought. I learned later that this part of Queens had been redlined by the local banks and realtors. This meant that these street grids were being segregated as white families were shown homes in certain sections and the new Caribbean immigrants and African Americans eager to buy into these family-friendly blocks were shown homes in other sections. The line in our neighborhood changed around 1968, and white flight was pushed along by a protracted and contentious teachers' strike that made the schools in the nearby suburbs even more appealing.
My family stayed to be part of a rapidly integrating neighborhood where basketball at the "little park" became the game of choice. Houses were quickly sold by the Irish and German American working class to the new Americans, Puerto Ricans, Haitians and African Americans who were eager to leave apartments just as an earlier generation seeking more space had done. Italian groceries were replaced by bodegas. My friends and I, like all teens, craved privacy and gravitated to empty parking lots and isolated places like "The Gulch," a strip along the Cross Island Parkway or "Green Grass," a field created by an on ramp to the Parkway. By 1970, rebellion against the Vietnam War, street drugs like marijuana and a growing sense of an emerging youth culture that was re-defining America gave us a somewhat distorted sense of reality.
It was when I discovered the map room at Jamaica Library, a bus ride away, that I began to realize my corner of the city had lots of stories to tell. As I began my research, I learned that the Jameco Indians had once once walked Jamaica Avenue, a path through tall sea grass. They traded it to the Dutch for some overcoats and guns and a promise not to to cut down any trees that had eagles' nests in them. The sea grass was replaced by farms and eagles were long gone when we arrived, but the search for home and meaning of place was still very much alive.

Swallow your Pride
After tales of financial troubles and speculation about the programme, World Pride came off. Just. Where do we go from here?
So that was it - the World Pride that wasn't. After weeks of speculation, denials, emergency meetings, a half-baked apology and the announcement that the chair of organising committee Pride London was standing down, World Pride went ahead - just not in the world-class way we were originally promised.
Claims that it would be 'like the Jubilee, only bigger' proved unfounded. Given the decision to move the event to the earlier time of 11am, the turnout on the day was better than expected. An estimated 15,000 took part in the march - sorry, 'procession'. But there were no floats or motorised vehicles, which meant that many community groups wasted funds on floats they couldn't use and people with walking difficulties were deterred from attending.
There were no official street parties in Soho. Instead, gay bar owners were warned by Westminster Council that any music 'audible outside of your premises' would result in their licences being revoked.
There was no personal appearance by Hillary Clinton, whose presence was strongly hinted at during the World Pride press launch a few weeks before. Instead she sent a video message thanking organisers for her 'World LGBT Award'. And there was no Boris Johnson, who was otherwise engaged.
Celebrations in Trafalgar Square were cut short. And it rained - though that's hardly the fault of the organisers or the mayor's office or anyone else.
But much of the blame must lie with the people who form the Pride committee. It's all very well them saying that the financial shortfall wasn't nearly as high as newspaper reports suggested. But there was a shortfall (something in the region of £65,000), which resulted in the event being severely scaled back. Why wasn't this accounted for? And if it was simply a question of cash flow, why weren't we alerted in time?
Why were the last-minute offers of bailouts from sponsors turned down? Saying 'it's too late' isn't good enough - not when it was the Pride committee themselves who chose when to finally come clean and reveal the extent of their money problems.
There are other questions to ask - and plenty of people have been asking them on gay websites and social networks. How can a small, self-elected group of volunteers hope to deliver a world-class event without a single full-time worker? What were the costs of all those 'fact-finding missions' to foreign climes mentioned on the Pride website? And how can the present board expect to continue without the trust of the community they represent?
Perhaps the answers to some of these questions will be forthcoming in the next few weeks. What's certain is that Pride did fall, as some people predicted weeks before the event. How it recovers from that fall will depend as much on the community at large as the organisation itself.
Already there is talk among activists of taking Pride back to its roots: doing away with the pop acts and injecting more in the way of politics. A group called Community Pride for London 2013 has launched on Facebook. Meanwhile, gay business leaders are calling for a new, openly elected Pride committee, comprised of people with a proven track record and a head for business. A public meeting will take place at Heaven on July 25.
For those asking if we still need Pride, it's worth noting that World Pride coincided with the publication of a report by Stonewall showing that 55 per cent of lesbian, gay and bisexual pupils in Britain's secondary schools experience homophobic bullying. In a country where large numbers of young people are still being bullied because of their sexuality, Pride is as vital as ever.
We should bear this in mind as we move forward. And now that this year's World Pride has been consigned to history, it's time to put our disappointment into perspective and remember that we have been here before. In 1998, Pride in London was cancelled. A group of community and business leaders got together and relaunched the event the following year.
A similar thing needs to happen now. The current board of Pride London should stand down. A new committee should be elected in their place. And work should begin as soon as possible to ensure that next year's Pride is an event we can all be proud of.
The Future of Pride will be debated at Heaven on July 25

Hey there! Welcome to Kings Creek Pottery.
Kings Creek Pottery is a small pottery located in Schoharie County, a rural county southwest of Albany, NY.
I make stoneware pottery on the wheel. Almost all of my pottery is made for food and serving food. However, some pieces are for thing like incense, soap, or ornaments. There is a wide variety of items to choose from at Kings Creek Pottery!
You can learn more about me and the pottery through the page links above or look through past blog posts.
I've slowed down on the blog writing, as it takes a lot of time.
Another way to stay on top of what's happening in the studio you can follow Kings Creek Pottery on Facebook.
Thanks for stopping by!
