Get 'em cheap! 11 August '12 new order with fresh riparium plants.
Get 'em cheap! 11 August '12 new order with fresh riparium plants.
Several of these plants are unrooted semi-aquatic stem plants. I am going to start rooting these soon, so I will have the inexpensive cuttings for just a few days. They are easy to root--just place the plant in a bright spot with the base in the water. After new roots start to form you can plant the rooted base in the riparium planter.
The leather fern is an excellent plants and one of my favorite riparium subjects. The dwarf Ruellia grows to just 8" or so tall--it's an excellent choice for a nano riparium--and blooms with lovely blue flowers!
Note that I also have two good selections for riparium trellis rafts (aluminum plant and Alternanthera) in case you might need to fill more trellis raft space.
The following lists each plant selection along with prices:
Any quantity of these plants will ship via USPS Priority for $6.
I might snap a few pictures of these plants, but like I mentioned I will have them available as the economical unrooted cuttings for just a few days.

Vehicle of Burgos snatching traced to soldiers, DENR men
This is interesting. I really have a bad feeling about Jonas Burgos' fate.

This is similar to the case of the missing UP students. The jeep used to pick them up was seen parked in a military camp. Talagang garapal.

Fuel is the adrenaline of any car, truck or engine. Thus, it is every vehicle owner's wish to enhance the fuel of their car and save more of it as well. With this in mind, the most innovative fuel-saving tool in the automotive industry was conceptualized and created: the Tornado Fuel saver. An automotive air channeling tool that creates a swirling air motion, the Tornado Fuel Saver allows the air to move in a faster and more efficient way by whirling air around corners and bends. Hence, more fuel is saved.

Then he proudly raised his antlered head and stood a moment sniffing the air.
The elk raised his proud, antlered head and looked in my direction.
They lacked not food; the forest was filled with grazing deer and antlered stags.
He and 109 his antlered cows were migrating southward by slow stages.
She is used to pursuing that fleet and antlered pride of the forest—the stag—and she can go like billyo.
But there were no vast swards nor pleasure-grounds nor Parks of antlered deer in Cherryvale.
Sometimes, when the sun was low, a shadow—an antlered shadow—slipped through like a fantasy.
An antlered stag in the blue-coat that brooks no other near his herd!
Finally, with trembling limbs the antlered deer slackened its speed before the open door of a chapel in the midst of the wildwood.
The great wolf of the North does not stand at bay to the antlered people.

endersavesus05 Review
I absolutely LOVE my ring!! Everyone who sees it comments on how clear it is and it sparkles like crazy! My fiance ordered the wrong size and when I took it into the jeweler, I was told they didn't feel comfortable sizing it because of the pave setting of the diamonds (they were afraid the diamonds would fall out if they sized the bands smaller). We contacted Overstock and were able to exchange the ring for the correct size with no problems at all. They even refunded us the cost of shipping & insurance!

Logan Vaughn is out with his leaf blower doing some yard work when he comes across Steve Stiffer doing some blow work of his own. You see, Steve has a huge, long, stiff cock which he self sucks down to the balls. It's a mesmerizing show stopper to watch--self satisfaction at its best. Logan can't keep away, and jumps into the fray for the fuck of his life. Stiffer sticks his shaft up Logan's well-tanned ass and fucks his until he shoots a thick, satisfying load!

Mr. Rock proves he's no Angel when he finds Logan Vaughn shackled to a barber chair wearing a leather harness and latex jock with his cock hanging out. Rock spits on Vaughn, smacks his dick around, and tortures his nipples, showing the helpless Vaughn no mercy. It doesn't take long for Angel to unchain Logan's ankles so he can throw his legs in the air and bury his tongue deep in Logan's juicy bubble-butt. Logan enjoys the ass-eating then gets on all fours and opens his hole to Angel's huge Latino cock. The dominant Angel pounds the hell out of Logan's ass then pulls out and orders him to suck his dick. Logan hungrily bobs his head up and down on Angel's uncut monster until Angel turns him around and mounts him like a sex-crazed animal. Angel yanks his own cock and blows all over the submissive bottom's back then orders Logan to shoot his load on his boot and lick it clean.

Almost every gay man loves to suck cock. And just about every man alive loves to have his cock sucked. Logan Vaughn and Jimmy Durano are no exception. Jimmy starts off giving Logan a juicy, drooling blow job that makes Logan's cock rock hard. He swallows Logan's cock to the base then stands up and whips out his thick, uncut Latin monster. Logan obediently gets on his knees and opens his jaws to allow Jimmy to fuck his face. The muscular young stud never takes Jimmy's cock out of his mouth, even while Jimmy begins to finger Logan's huge bubble-butt. Logan's moans make it clear that he wants to be fucked. Jimmy gets behind Logan and shoves his cock in his ass. He pounds Logan hard doggy-style then throws him on his back to grind his cock in his hole even deeper. Logan's hot ass feels so good Jimmy can't take it; he pulls out and shoots a load all over Logan's stomach and chest. Right on cue Logan drains his own load and they collapse in a sweaty heap.

Our Biere de Chocolat celebrates the long and lauded history of chocolate production in San Francisco. Our aim was to create a beer bursting with cocoa flavors and aromas, balancing sweet and savory to create a complex but quaffable chocolate brew. To accomplish this we partnered with Dandelion Chocolate in San Francisco to create this rich brew brimming with chocolate character. Working with the unique flavors of Dandelion's single-source beans, we created this decadent beer by layering in smoked and dark-roasted malts with citrusy Ivanhoe hops from Clearlake, CA. Finally, we added a blend of hand-roasted cocoa beans sourced from Madagascar and Río Caribe, Venezuela. The Madagascar beans add bright berry-cocoa flavors, while the Río Caribe adds dark chocolate and bourbon notes. A touch of vanilla rounds out the supporting flavors to create an eminently drinkable beer that is a chocolate lover's beer through and through.

Major: English: Literature
Minor: Computer Science and Art
Residence: Plainfield, Ind.
What are you doing now?
I am a Support Engineer for Scale Computing. I am also working on technical documentation for them. I am working on self-publishing a series of fantasy/paranormal romance books.
What experiences did you appreciate most in the SJC CS Department?
The different labs both Prof. Capouch and Prof. Coy held were some of my favorite experiences. The Software Engineering class probably prepared me the best for the real world.
The labs were a fun way to figure out if you really "got" it. Classes were one thing, talking about networking or how to program. The labs were really where you got to test your understanding. It either worked, or it didn't! Then you had tochange the whole way you looked at a problem.
How did Core integrate with your major?
Core integrated perfectly with my major. It was a place where we learned how to discuss and debate. It really opened your mind to thinking of the world in a multitude of different ways, which is great not only when writing, but also when programming or tackling a problem. There isn't always one perfect answer, and sometimes there may never be an answer or there may be hundreds of answers. Many times, it's all about how you learn to look at a problem--from all of the different viewpoints.
What advice would you give to a prospective student looking to major in CS at SJC?
Do it! Computer science is a great industry with a growing job market. Not only that, but it's just plain fun to work with a bunch of geeks! Where else are cat memes, YouTube videos, and Reddit a daily occurrence at work? And they're usually all applicable to some issue! I'll admit, figuring out computers is not always easy, but working through even the toughest assignments is worth it in the end!
How were both Prof. Coy and Prof. Capouch helpful to you?
Prof. Capouch was the one who really pushed for me to get into the program. He went out of his way and allowed me special approval to take a few classes out of order since I picked up the minor my junior year. With his push, I was able to complete the minor in time for graduation senior year, and he was always happy to help out and assist whenever I had problems.
Prof. Coy is an awesome teacher. She and Prof. Capouch are like night and day in teaching style, but I really think that that helps to round out the program. Where Prof. Capouch is a mass of random knowledge and experience, whose thoughts cover a broad range of industry knowledge, Prof. Coy is an organized folder of facts with a series of classes where the foundation of understanding can be built. In particular, Prof. Coy is great for making one-on-one time to answer questions and troubleshoot code. She's always available to help out and explain anything that may have been difficult in class.
Get a jump start on your career and have your resume ready to go at graduation.
Small colleges offer you personal attention; SJC professors do more for you—they serve as mentors.
The Core Program is all about you and your role in the world.
You get more deeply involved at SJC, so you get more meaningful experiences that prepare you for career and life.
Get real-life experience and become an excellent communicator.

Just updated my HTPC from 10.1 with the MQ2 skin, to v11 RC2 with the MQ3 skin. I did a total fresh install of windows 7 and also rebuild my directory structure of my collection of DVDs and Blurays.
A couple of things I cant get to work with the MQ3 skin:
1. None of my series gets scraped. I have a lot of series on DVD, each DVD contains 3-4 episodes. I used the specific code for scraping within video_ts files from: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Adv...ttings.xml
in my advancedsettings.xml
But I cant get the series information (covers/fanart/episodes etc.) get into the TVshows section of the menu, or a new menu item called Series which points to a directory on my NAS/HTPC
2. I cant get more then 5 submenu items when adding a new menu item (favorite1). I'm using the MQ3 skin in Super-mode, but I cant get more then 5 submenus. In MQ2 there was a New Item submenu, this isnt in MQ3 anymore?
3. When going to the movies menu, and select a DVD. The files which are on that DVD are displayed, not the screen with the plot and the play/resume/etc. choice options. Am I missing an option somewhere?
Im using the multiplex view.
Maybe someone overhere can help me out with above questions?

Nobody any clue how to solve some of the above?
When selecting the normal/pro/super mode of MQ3 it is even stated that 20 submenu's are supported. But when looking at for instant menu item Favorite1, it has only 5 submenu's shown. How to add more submenu's there?
Also a reset of the skin didn't help.

4 Questions to Ask to Avoid Buying "Consultingware"
Beware software vendors who claim to sell off-the-shelf products but actually sell custom packages that require customization and are costly to upgrade.
When associations need to overhaul their current technology, the decision of whether to buy or build software is a complicated one. Organizations that choose to buy should also be wary of software vendors who claim to sell an off-the-shelf product but actually sell a custom solution. This kind of software—often termed "consultingware"—typically leads to an incomplete solution. That can get expensive, because such packages are specifically designed to require customization services and are nearly impossible to upgrade without substantial cost. Here are a few questions to ask to avoid falling victim to consultingware:
1. Will the solution require a lot of customization? Many consultingware vendors maintain their revenue goals by providing continued customization services. If an organization cannot afford to (or chooses not to) continually revisit this customized software system, the result is obsolescence of the product over time. Good software companies try to minimize the amount of consulting service required and maximize their customers' initial software investments by protecting their upgrade paths.
2. What is the organizational structure of the company? Non-consultingware software companies will have a technical organization that keeps developers, writers, and product planners separate from implementation staff and customers. Consulting companies often rely on programmers to work at each customer site; the mixing of product programmers and implementation consultants is a red flag. Ask for the company's organization chart and look for differences in its approach.
3. What will implementation be like? Consultingware vendors rely on a "build-to-suit" model; they send business analysts to the site to develop a design specification, similar to a product plan. System implementations often come in over budget and take longer than planned. Ask what the detailed steps are and how long it will take to get the solution up and running. After comparing the implementation processes, the difference in strategy will be obvious.
4. What user support is available? Ask for complete, up-to-date documentation for all applications and the company's release notes, which are a historical record of documents describing this progression. Also ask for third-party support; consultingware companies cannot leverage these because their software is not productized. Check for a customer-support website. The lack of one is yet another sign that the product is not real or cannot be upgraded.
Selecting a software solution is one of the biggest professional decisions an association makes. A little due diligence up front will make the difference between a truly upgradeable software solution that will grow with the organization's needs and a long-term commitment with a company that's constantly bolting new functionality on to a patchwork quilt that never quite fits expectations or budget.

text: Apr 20, 2009 - This product combined with the Knot Today leave-in is the perfect styler for me. It's expensive, but a little bit goes a long way. Leaves me with soft, shiny, moisturized, curly coils, and I love the smell! It seems to have a conditioning effect also as my hair seems to be thicker, stronger, and softer than it was before I started using it. The longer I use it, the better my curl/coil definition seems to be. Will definitely repurchase.


text: Ohh nice, I forgot about the points obelisk. Thats the sort of thing I wish I had gone after as an Am but I didn't realize there was any sort of prize for it at the time! lol. I don't get out of town enough anyway for it. Good **** and good luck with that.

Fat Chance
Accompanying a proud self-proclamation as one of the birthplaces of mountain biking, Crested Butte has announced the schedule for its annual Fat Tire Bike Week, which takes place today through June 22. The beginning of the festivities will be boosted by an increased population, courtesy of a coinciding stop by the Ride the Rockies bicycle tour, which expects to bring an additional 2,000 cyclists to the town. Highlights of the week itself include group rides for all skill levels, a bike rodeo, relay races, live music, a pig roast, a downhill chainless race and a generally party-hearty time. Also of interest to those die-hard off-road cyclists is the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame in downtown Crested Butte, which will host a screening of the mountain-bike history documentary Klunkerz.
Those disappointed by the literal reference to fat tires need not despair: One of the main draws of the week, which is sponsored by New Belgium Brewery, is daily access to a beer garden at which tickets may be redeemed for frothy brew.
Register online at www.ftbw.com or in person at the Crested Butte State Park from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. during Bike Week. The whole kit and caboodle is yours for a mere $90, which includes some booze, a meal, a T-shirt and entry into the chainless race ($20 without the package deal). If youd rather take things as they come, the rate is $25 a day. But keep this in mind: You might feel left out if you show up to the chainless race without a costume -- and you could maximize your enjoyment by keeping one on for the whole week. Make your way to Crested Butte State Park, 500 6th Street in Crested Butte, or call 1-800-545-4505 for details.

TNP has successfully sponsored 10 Delaware statutory trust (DST) programs on behalf of approximately 500 DST investors since late 2008. The acquisition was financed by American National Insurance Company. The loan was originated by Wally Reid and Kelly Layne of HFF's Houston office. A grand opening ribbon cutting ceremony took place on July 26 at 1:30 p.m. with speakers that included Ohio Lieutenant Governor Mary Taylor, Senator Chris Widener and Stu Shea, SAIC Chief Operating Officer. "The new facility in Beavercreek will enable SAIC to expand our existing capabilities to align with the Air Force's UAS research and development and testing vision," said Shea.

The property is located across from Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Beavercreek, Ohio, and is easily accessible via Interstate 675. The three-story, state-of-the-art building was completed in late June of 2012 exclusively for SAIC, a FORTUNE 500® scientific, engineering and technology applications company that uses its deep knowledge to solve problems of vital importance in national security, energy and environment, health, and cybersecurity. The company's approximately 41,000 employees serve customers in the U.S. Department of Defense, the intelligence community, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, other U.S. Government civil agencies. For more information, see www.saic.com. "TNP sponsors DST programs for exchange investors seeking tax-deferral under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code as well as regular cash investors.

Inside An Epic Road Trip, by Bike
Part personal adventure, part act of environmental consciousness, best friends Boris Mordkovich and Anna Mostovetsky chose a challenging way to raise awareness about the benefits of bicycle commuting at a time of $4 gasoline: a 4,000-mile cross country tour.
Mordkovich, 26, and Mostovetsky, 25, would not strike the casual observer as trans-continental bicyclists. He is a director of Evelo, an electric bicycle start-up based in New York. She has a degree in environmental science and has worked on salmon restoration in her home state of Washington. He sports a stereotypical nerdy look; tall, skinny, and bespectacled. She is slight in build with wavy black hair and deep blue eyes. But Boris and Anne must both have, or soon will have, legs of iron.
"For us, it was an interesting opportunity to see a lot of the different cities in our country and understand what are the transportation challenges in each one," says Mordkovich, who has known Mostovetsky since their high school days a decade ago.
"We've done a lot of traveling internationally and we both cycled together in New Zealand," says Mostovetsky. "We went on a one-month cycling tour in the south island and it was a great experience, and we thought what better way to see the country than to cycle."
Journey across the country
The two coast-to-coast adventurers will ride electric bikes that supply additional power to make it up steep hills and mountains. The tour from New York to San Francisco is expected to take two-and-a-half months, winding and weaving its way over roads urban and rural, stopping in 15 cities where the travelers will give presentations on electric bicycles and the benefits of green commuting.
"Our average is going to wind up being about 80 miles per day, and the number of hours that takes just depends on the terrain that we will be passing through," says Mostovetsky.
WAMU interviewed the bicycling buddies after their tour stop in the greater Washington area. They had spent the better part of the morning traveling south from Baltimore, attended a gathering in Tacoma Park, and made arrangements to spend the night at their host's home in Cabin John, Md. As they travel county-to-county and state-to-state, Mordkovich and Mostovetsky are booking their lodgings online with people who rent bedrooms or couches to travelers.
"They are only strangers for the first few minutes," laughs Mordkovich.
They won't spend any nights sleeping under the stars, but their long voyage to San Francisco will be challenging nonetheless.
"The best stories are the ones where while they are happening you are thinking, why in the world did I decide to do this?" says Mordkovich, who says the trip had gone smoothly during the first week after leaving New York. "There were a couple hiccups here and there. For example, you end up on an interstate just because the GPS sends you in the wrong direction."
They attached trailers to each of their bicycles, each weighing about 70 pounds. They contain tools and spare parts, electric battery chargers, some food and a few changes of clothing.
"So this is our electrical box, and this is where we keep all our chargers and other electrical gadgets for charging batteries," says Mostovetsky as she unzips the fabric covering the trailer's top. "Every evening we look for an outlet and charge them up. And this box which came in handy today is our emergency tools, a first aid kit, some bungee cords, a zip lock bag full of spare tubes and anything else we need."
Mordkovich pulled out two large boxes of Cliff bars, a gift from his brother. Their bicycles were provided by his start-up, Evelo, and they have also received sponsors to help cover the trek's estimated cost of $10,000.
Commuting by bicycle in America
While they hope to gain much personal fulfillment from their long voyage, Mordkovich and Mostovetsky also want to make a point about the way most Americans get to work.
"There are tons of bicycles sold in Holland, Switzerland and Germany and many people use them for commuting and getting around," she says. "Half a percent of the population in the United States uses them as a means of commuting. We could do a lot better, especially in this day in age when oil is peaking and we need to find alternative energy sources."
Mordkovich says Washington D.C. has strong bicycling potential.
"From what we've seen you have a very good bicycle infrastructure," he says. "Furthermore, I think it is very interesting that starting last year you added the Capital Bikeshare."

text: Hello all, I am new here but have been aware of this site for a while now (at least 4-5 years). I was a fan of Star Wars at a young age and always loved Boba Fett. Have a picture of me at about 8 years old with the old cheap Halloween Boba costume. Anyway I've kinda stayed away from this for as long as I could but now I'm in and I'd like to start my own helmet and am looking for advice. I want to make a Fett helmet and I'm leaning towards the Prototype Armor but I may not do it in white. I saw there are several great kits out there but have yet to see a Prototype kit. Is there a thread with links to all available kits and what one do you reccomend? I know cost is the most deciding factor for most but I would not want to limit myself so any and all reccomendations are welcome, if I'm gonna do one I might as well go all the way. Also is it true someone sells a kit that is aluminum cast, if that is true I would love something like that that you could actually wear and beat on. Anyway please excuse me if I've asked a question that's been asked a million times and point me in the right direction. Thanks!

At higher mileages, an anti-lock brake system wheel speed sensor may wear out and illuminate the ABS warning light. It is recommended to replace the sensor with a factory part and be sure to clean all rust and debris from the mounting area because the mounting distance is critical.

The autumn night had arrived. The moon was shining on the mossy wall. The willow was weeping by the lotus pond. I invited you to go with me to visit my small cottage in the wild jungle near by a peaceful spring. I told you many stories, the stories about love, about friendship, about Viet Nam . I invited you to drink with me a cup of lotus tea to cleanse our exhausted heart. Lotus scent lightened the strong tea. I invited you to watch with me a lotus flower to forget our bitter life. Who knows lotus was broken into pieces…

Many of you might have already seen this quote from Steve Jobs' Commencement address in Stanford back in 2005, but I had not seen it before yesterday. I thought it was pretty inspirational for those of us stuck in a rut and letting life just push us along:
"No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

Lunchroom envy. I love it. Not having it. Giving it. You know, when everyone around the table starts sniffing the air and asking what it is your eating. And you smile smugly and say, "Chicken Simmered in Caramel Sauce." And then, unless they cook a lot, or are familiar Vietnamese foods, they look at you blankly. Good times.
Do you want to give lunchroom envy? This dish will do it for you. The aroma of the ginger is intoxicating. I found this recipe in Quick & Easy Vietnamese: 75 Everyday Recipes a book which I've sang the praises of many times. If you haven't gotten you a copy yet, you really don't know what you are missing.
Everything in the book is easy, and unbelievably tasty. This dish was no exception. My chicken didn't come out as dark and caramely as the pictures in the book. I think it's because I used more chicken than what the recipe called for and my chicken steamed a little more than it browned. Didn't matter it was still delicious. The slight heat from the ginger with the sweetness of the sugar and the earthiness of the fish sauce…perfect.
Chicken Simmered in Caramel Sauce
Serves 4 – 6
1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken thighs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
2 tablespoons chopped shallots or onion
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar or palm sugar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried red chili flakes
1/4 cup water
3 green onions, trimmed and cut into 2-inch lengths
Chop the chicken into big chunks by halving each thigh and then cutting each half into quarters. In a large, deep skillet or a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until a bit of garlic sizzles at once. Add the chicken and cook for about 2 minutes, tossing once or twice.
Push the meat out to the sides of the pan and add the ginger, shallots, and garlic to the middle of the pan. Cook for about 1 minute, and then toss well. Add the fish sauce, both kinds of sugar, the salt, pepper, and chili flakes and toss to mix everything well. Let the sauce come to a strong boil and begin to thicken, and then add the water. Adjust the heat to maintain a lively simmer and then cook the chicken for 10 to 15 minutes, tossing now and then, When the sauce is a reddish brown syrup and the chicken is cooked, add the green onions and toss well. Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot or warm.

Housing officials told members of the City Council yesterday that they needed an additional $15 million and 300 new employees to comply with a new lead-paint law that is to go into effect in August.
During a budget hearing before the Council's Committee on Housing and Buildings, the officials also suggested that the city needed more time to train employees and contractors. They also expressed concern that some contracting work could be delayed because companies would not have enough time to go through the federal Environmental Protection Agency's certification process.
''It is entirely possible that there will be some period of time when painting, plastering, plumbing, electrical, window replacement and other repairs will slow down considerably due to the lack of certified firms," said John Warren, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's first deputy commissioner.
The city's claims about the daunting nature of lead-paint compliance came during a day of budget testimony from the three city agencies primarily responsible for shelter and inspections: the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, the Department of Buildings and the New York City Housing Authority.
Lead paint has been hotly debated by city officials, particularly since last July, when the State Court of Appeals struck down the city's four-year-old law that dealt with cleaning up lead paint. The court said the Council had failed to identify and explain the potential effects on the environment and public health.
In December, the Council approved a new law, which Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg vetoed, aligning himself with city health officials, landlords and advocates of low-income housing who argued that it would be crushingly expensive, would duplicate programs and would discourage affordable housing projects by making it harder to secure liability insurance. But last month, the Council overrode his veto.
As it is, the new law regulates the removal of lead-paint hazards, including dust, from apartments built before 1960. It also requires annual identification of all children younger than 7 living in those units.Continue reading the main story
But city officials said yesterday that to comply, they would need about $30 million -- only half of which would be covered by the current budget allocation.Continue reading the main story

I have recently acquired a low mileage early 70s buick 455 with a 400 long tail tranny that I would like to swap into my 72 formula 350 firebird. Can this be done by simply swapping out motor mounts or am I opening up a can of worms???
I think you might be opening a can of worms.If it is more power you are looking for I would sell the buick 455 and use that money to beef up the pontiac 350. It is a true pontiac engine right? The pontiac 350's have alot of potential and can produce good power with the right combo.You may want to go to the pontiac site highperformancepontiac.com there are a couple guy's over there that really know there engines.

I saw these challenges all over Instagram and I wondered where people were finding them at, so I investigated and discovered this site. It turns out their challenges are coming from the iPhone/iPad app (it costs $2.99), but the website is free!
I've been looking into finding some new exercises because I'm just feeling generally run down and fatigued. Yoga is helping my stress levels, but I think I need to add something new to my routine.
When you arrive to the site you'll find tons of featured content on the main page like a selection of 30 Day Fitness Challenges, Exercise Techniques, Healthy Eating Recipes, and the Latest News Articles. I really love the way it is setup as it gives you a great example of what the site is about from the first glance. Along the top of the page you'll find a navigation strip with the same categories.
While the challenges are awesome, I really love the Exercise Techniques section where they show you how to do the exercises in the challenge. This is something I find lacking in a lot of exercise sites. What good is it to get a list of exercises to do, if they don't describe how to do it accurately or with great pictures? Well no worries about that here! They have excellent descriptions of how to do the exercises in their challenges.
And of course, I'm always looking for new recipes! Especially if they are tasty and healthy! what I love about their recipes is that they took the time to make them look appetizing. I firmly believe we eat with our eyes first, it gets our appetite going! Great food photos are 100% more likely to make me try a recipe!
What are you waiting for? Go check this site out today!

Softball's Arcuri Tabbed First Team All-Conference
May 7, 2014
IRVING, Texas - UTEP softball's Erika Arcuri was named to the 2014 All-Conference USA first team league officials announced on Wednesday.
Arcuri was one of three outfielders to be recognized on the first team.
The senior completed her second season with the Orange and Blue after transferring from FIU prior to the 2013 season. Arcuri started 49 games, leading the Miners with a .366 batting average and hits (60), while finishing second with 32 runs scored and tallying six doubles, one triple and six stolen bases. She also recorded 18 RBI after notching seven in 2013. Pitchers had a difficult time with Arcuri, as she only struck out eight times in 164 at bats, ranking third in conferences and 48th nationally in toughest to strikeout.
The native of Tampa, Fla. ended her UTEP career with a .357 batting average, ranking third-best in program history. But not only did she excel in the batter's box, the center fielder was a Hoover on defense, committing zero errors during the 2014 campaign. Arcuri made spectacular catches with 85 putouts and recorded five assists with spot-on throws to the infield.
Her efforts helped the Miners make positive strides this season. The team won 17 games, the most in four seasons, while their nine conference wins more than exceeded the six league victories the last three seasons. The Miners also hit .290 as a team, the third-best batting average in school history.
Arcuri connected on six hits, five RBI and scored three runs during a road sweep of La Tech on March 15-16. The clean up was the first-ever conference road sweep in program history. Arcuri went 3-for-4 with three RBI in the third game against the Lady Techsters. During that third contest, the Miners overcame a 7-3 deficit to win, 9-7, completing the sweep.
She also tallied five hits and three RBI in a home sweep of Middle Tennessee on April 12-13 - UTEP's first home sweep of a conference foe since the 2010 season. Arcuri went 3-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored during the first win of the series.
Arcuri recorded 16 multi-hit games and achieved the longest hitting streak for the Miners, a 13-game stretch (March 1-21) in which she hit .469 (23-for-49). She also hit .372 in conference only games.
During her first season in the Sun City, Arucri earned the 2013 C-USA Newcomer of the Year, while leading the team with a .347 batting average.

Here at Day Care 4 Paws we specialise in the care of your dog while you're out at work or when you just need to go out for the day. We provide physical and mental stimulation for your dog enabling them to play and rest throughout the day to suit their own needs. We provide a safe, fully enclosed area to enable your dog to enjoy his or her time with us, whether it be a frequent visit or just a one off. Day Care 4 Paws is also a perfect way for your dogs to socialise with other dogs which can often be difficult during our busy lives when people are dashing about making sure their dog has done its business while out on a walk but not necessarily giving them time to explore, sniff, scratch and play around with one another. This can eventually lead to a stressed dog who no longer enjoys their walkies. This also makes Day Care 4 Paws an ideal place to bring your new puppy, even if it is just two or three times a week – you'll have one very well socialised and extremely well rounded and very happy puppy! Equally, once you pick your dog up from the Centre, the first thing they want to do is curl up for a snooze when you get home rather than leaping all over you demanding you take them out for a walk immediately! So it is very much a win-win situation and one which we feel you will be very happy with! If you have been considering using a dog walker or a dog sitter then we are confident you'll be amazed by our prices – enabling you to have your dog or puppy cared for for a minimum of 5 hour blocks (half day sessions) all for just £8!
We are the only large-scale dog day care centre in the Consett/Derwentside area of County Durham. With around 1000 sq ft of internal play and over 200 sq ft of outdoor play – all fully enclosed – Day Care 4 Paws is the perfect place for your four legged best friend.
Of course you'll want to come and have a look around before registering so please feel free to pop over for a look around. We put the safety and enjoyment of your dog before anything else so we can only accept dogs that enjoy the company of other dogs and people. We don't kennel or crate dogs and free-play is what your dogs love most so we simply cannot accept dogs that won't mix well with the other visitors. All dogs must be vaccinated and we will ask to see your vaccination records. All dogs undergo an assessment for temperament which involves introducing them to a few dogs at a time to see how they react. This assessment is of course FREE and there is no obligation to join.
Any size or breed of dog will be accepted on successful completion of the assessment. Whether you wish to use Day Care 4 Paws on just an occasional basis right the way up to five days a week, we can provide a fabulous time for both you and your dog. With prices starting from the equivalent of just £7, we undercut a large number of dog walkers who charge this sort of sum of money for just a 30 minute or 60 minute walk! So not only do we offer a "5-paw" service we are also superb value for money!
We take the guilt away from owning a puppy or dog but having to work and leave your beloved pooch at home on their own and we also take the stress away from never quite knowing how much damage aforementioned pooch has left for your return home!
|For your dog or puppy:
|For you and your family:
We are situated in Unit 5, Derwentdale Industrial Estate, Blackhill, Consett, County Durham, DH8 8PZ. For your convenience, we've worked out some travelling times as we appreciate most people will be enroute to or from work when they use Day Care 4 Paws for doggy day care purposes:
- Approx 5 minutes from Consett town centre,
- 6 minutes from Tesco supermarket on Delves Lane, Consett,
- 6 minutes from the Villa Real roundabout in Consett,
- 7 minutes from the A68 at Castleside,
- 7 minutes from the B6309/A694 junction at the bottom of Ebchester Hill,
- 10 minutes from Lintzford Garden Centre on the outskirts of Rowlands Gill
- 11 minutes from the Stockerley Lane/A691 junction towards Lanchester
We are perfectly placed for commuters travelling in all manner of different directions without the hassle of bumping into any major traffic issues, even at rush-hour.
Ran by a qualified Animal Behaviourist and Dog Trainer, here at Day Care 4 Paws we can also offer 1:1 behavioural consultations for a variety of issues including separation anxiety, aggression, fear related problems, stress, problems with travelling in a car, integrating with children or other family pets and a whole range of other things. These issues can be tackled in our premises or if they are specifically related to something that happens at home or if you feel your dog would benefit from a home consultation, we are happy to offer this service too. We also offer training as part of our Day Care and we always instill good manners which includes no jumping up or barging, basic obedience such as sit, stay, lie down, etc. In addition to this we also run dog training classes and puppy classes too at amazing prices.

Your Email Cannot Kill You
Your email can kill you! No, actually it can't. Despite silly claims of what's been dubbed "email apnea," doctors say there's no truth to the claim breathing is dangerously altered while sitting in front a keyboard.
Dr. Richard Castriotta is a sleep specialist at Houston's UT Health Science Center.
"This is not a killer. I can tell you there's no basis to this at all."
Dr. Castriotta says the human body will not allow itself to suffer from any kind of apnea while it's awake.
"You can safely continue to get engrossed in your emails and there will be no physiologic or pathologic consequences."
Supporters of email apnea, perhaps hoping to justify some sort of future lawsuit, say 80% of us may be affected, suffering excessive sweating, an increased heart rate and dilated pupils.
But Dr. Castriotta says doesn't make sense.
"If we hold our breath, we can't hold it for too long -- long enough to cause any problems. Our own physiologic defense mechanisms take over to start breathing again."

- Growth and Magnetic Properties of Fe films on vicinal to (001) substrates (1999)
- We report on investigations of the crystallographic structure and the magnetic anisotropies of epitaxial iron films deposited onto periodically stepped Ag(001) surfaces using low energy electron diffraction, x-ray diffraction, second harmonic generation (SHG), as well as the Brillouin light scattering (BLS) technique. The focus of the present study lies on the interrelation between the surface morphology of the buffer layers and the magnetic properties of the Fe films, epitaxially grown onto them. Especially the symmetry breaking at the atomic steps is found to create an uniaxial magnetic anisotropy measured by BLS and a very strong anisotropic signal in magnetic SHG.
- Epitaxial growth of metastable Pd(001) on bcc-Fe(001) (1999)
- Epitaxial growth of metastable Pd(001) at high deposition temperatures up to a critical thickness of 6 monolayers on bcc-Fe(001) is reported, the critical thickness being depending dramatically on the deposition temperature. For larger thicknesses the Pd film undergoes a roughening transition with strain relaxation by forming a top polycrystalline layer. These results allow to make a correlation between previ-ously reported unusual magnetic properties of Fe/Pd double layers and the crystallographic structure of the Pd overlayer.
- Semiclassical Approximations in Phase Space with Coherent States (2001)
- We present a complete derivation of the semiclassical limit of the coherent state propagator in one dimension, starting from path integrals in phase space. We show that the arbitrariness in the path integral representation, which follows from the overcompleteness of the coherent states, results in many different semiclassical limits. We explicitly derive two possible semiclassical formulae for the propagator, we suggest a third one, and we discuss their relationships. We also derive an initial value representation for the semiclassical propagator, based on an initial gaussian wavepacket. It turns out to be related to, but different from, Heller's thawed gaussian approximation. It is very different from the Herman - Kluk formula, which is not a correct semiclassical limit. We point out errors in two derivations of the latter. Finally we show how the semiclassical coherent state propagators lead to WKB-type quantization rules and to approximations for the Husimi distributions of stationary states.
- Phishing in the Wireless: Implementation and Analysis (2006)
- Web-based authentication is a popular mechanism implemented by Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) because it allows a simple registration and authentication of customers, while avoiding the high resource requirements of the new IEEE 802.11i security standard and the backward compatibility issues of legacy devices. In this work we demonstrate two different and novel attacks against web-based authentication. One attack exploits operational anomalies of low- and middle-priced devices in order to hijack wireless clients, while the other exploits an already known vulnerability within wired-networks, which in dynamic wireless environments turns out to be even harder to detect and protect against.

After you have done that take a look. Remove the existing panhard bracket and install the frame outside bracket and then replicate the new tierod angle using the axle offset bracket, it will not work on a stock rig but a trail rig has the room.
I always suggest to everyone to not focus on the problem but think about what would be ideal and the answer can become pretty apparent. This one isn't as easy as it sounds but it has been done by many. One of the biggest downfalls as I see it is always trying bolt on solutions, you cannot rely on a bolt the fix this problem. This is really a design problem Jeep decided was ok to run with. Remember all those threads talking about crappy, unsafe steering setups? They all start with bent tierods don't they!

Following a meeting with Drum Corps International's Executive Committee on April 7, 2006, the Troopers have been preliminarily approved to rejoin the ranks of DCI in full division I competition for the 2007 competitive season. Final approval is expected later this year when the full DCI Board meets to vote on the matter.
DCI Executive Committee members praised the Troopers' executive director, Mike Ottoes, for the diligent work and appropriate steps taken over the last seven months to rectify the issues which caused the corps' removal from DCI competition for the 2006 season. Mr. Ottoes confirmed that all appropriate tax filings have been submitted to the Internal Revenue Service and the organization continues to follow-up with the IRS to ensure full compliance.
Additionally, the Troopers' Board of Directors has formulated a thorough business development plan and has also made strides to pay down the remaining debt.
According to Ottoes, the focus of the organization now is the further development of the Casper-based Trooper Cadets and the recruiting process for the 2007 DCI competitive season. The corps' famed sheep-wagon souvenir stand will be seen at major DCI events this summer to help promote the return of the corps in 2007.
The 2007 season will mark the 50th anniversary of the corps founding.

Love mine as well.....JJ
I bought a 9mm P250 subcompact last summer from, of all places, Gander Mt. They had a $349 special going and from what I'd read, many folks used to DA revolvers liked them. Now I'm one of em. My SC is very accurate, 100% reliable (1300rds) and I can shoot it as fast as I can shoot w/accuracy. Recently Gander Mt. has had a compact "longslide" advertised for $449. It was a compact grip housing w/full size slide/barrel. Also had sig nite sights and extra mag. A $399 sale hooked me. 300+rds and I love it. Figured the 4.7" barrel would make for some interesting velocities and this is what I chronographed today: 115 DPX=1287fps/423fpe; 124 Golden Saber+P=1187fps/388fpe; 124 Gold Dot+P=1216fps/407fpe; Black Hills 124XTP+P=1266fps/441fpe. The trigger on both of them remind me of my best DA revolver trigger, only one holds 13 rds and the other 16rds. I know they're not for everyone but they suit me real fine.
I know, my picture stinks!
What's really interesting is that the shorter barrel of the sub-compact seems to be more accurate than the 4.7" barrel. Kind of defies physics.
Yea, I've got a lot more practice with the SC and I was a little closer. When I get past 10yds, my "groups" become "patterns"!

Like a Cypriot, tennis-playing Gallagher, Marcos Baghdatis busted four -- count 'em, four -- racquets during a changeover in Wednesday night's Australian Open loss to Stanislas Wawrinka.
The 2008 finalist lost the first two sets to Wawrinka and had just been broken early in the third set when he sat down for a break and calmly* smashed the racquet he was using. He then took three more out of his bag, one at a time, and broke those too. From start to finish, it all lasted 45 seconds and was as impressive a display of contained anger that you'll ever see.
- As calm as one can be when breaking four racquets against a hard court.
The tirade worked (for a little bit). Rowdy evening session fans were already in Baghdatis' corner and the racquet-busting fired them up even more, leading to a raucous Pro-Marcos atmosphere for the final 90 minutes of the match. Baghdatis quickly broke back and won the third set before falling in the fourth. The final score was 7-6, 6-4, 5-7, 6-1.

FLORENCE, S.C. – Francis Marion University moved up four positions to No. 13 in this week's Collegiate Baseball Newspaper's NCAA Division II Top 30 poll, released on Monday, while FMU sophomore right-handed pitcher Don Sandifer was named the Peach Belt Conference Pitcher of the Week for the second time in three weeks.
The Patriots are 13-6 overall and climbed after playing five road games against higher ranked teams last week.
Francis Marion returns to the friendly confines of Cormell Field this week to host Clarion University for a non-conference doubleheader on Wednesday (March 9) at 2 p.m. The Patriots will then resume Peach Belt play this weekend with a three-game series against 20th-ranked Armstrong Atlantic State University. The series will start with a single game on Saturday at 3 p.m. and conclude with a doubleheader on Sunday at 1 p.m.
Admission to home games is $6 for adults and $4 for students with FMU students being admitted free with a valid identification card.
Sandifer improved his season record to 4-1 with a four-hit 5-0 shutout of 16th-ranked USC Aiken on Saturday. He allowed only four singles after carrying a no-hitter into the sixth inning. He struck out 10 batters and walked only one while throwing 117 pitches.
In his last 34 innings, which include his Feb. 19 no-hitter, Sandifer has allowed no earned runs and only nine base hits. The Bamberg native leads the PBC with a 0.23 earned run average and in opponents' batting average against (.117). He is second in the lead in strikeouts with 43 in 39 innings.
This week's ranking means the Patriots have appeared in 98 of the past 106 national polls dating back to the 2005 season. Francis Marion was ranked 15th in the 2011 pre-season poll, dropped out of the first two rankings, but returned to the poll and has been 24th and 17th (last week).
Fellow PBC member Georgia College (15-2) continues to occupy the No. 1 spot in the Top-30 poll, and altogether seven Peach Belt squads are ranked among the Top 30 programs.


text: LONDON, January 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- StockCall analytical team completed technical and charting analysis after yesterday's close on companies in this release. Sign up now to download those reports for free: http://www.stockcall.com/register Many of the major players in the department stores industry posted improved year-over-year December sales figures, as an improving economy and lower unemployment levels helped to offset "fiscal cliff" fears. Discounts late in the month for Kohl's Corporation [ (1) ] (NYSE:KSS) were a concern however. According to the National Retail Federation, December retail sales excluding restaurants, gas stations and automobiles improved by 2.1% when compared to the same period last year. Several stores also reported improved year-over-year same store sales, which bodes well for the industry moving forward. Lower prices at the pump and an improved housing market could also fuel growth in 2013. December sales improved for many retailers including The TJX Companies Inc. [ (2) ] (NYSE: TJX). TJX Companies' sales for the month of December came in 10% higher to $3.6 billion as compared to last year's sales figure of $3.3 billion. The off-price retailer saw its comparable sales grow by 6% over a year ago on the back of superior customer traffic which in turn was possible as the company exposed a wider and better choice of branded products in its stores at value prices. In the case of Kohl's sales fell short of estimates. Whilst the company's same-store sales were still 3.4% higher than a year back. Kohl's did not meet the company's sales projections, and the disappointing part was a large number of its sales were completed near the end of the holiday cycle, only when the retailer provided discounts on merchandise, thus narrowing its margin.

Familes can get dinner along with ideas on preparing their pre-kindergartners for school
TIGARD - Calling all incoming kindergartners in the Tigard-Tualatin School District: Plan to bring your parents to a giant kindergarten fair Wednesday, April 18, from 5 to 7 p.m. at C.F. Tigard Elementary.
The 'Kindergartners, Here We Come' event will include dinner for the whole family, prizes and booths set up around the gym full of information, ideas and activities, including 'Mad Science.'
'We will offer activities and ideas for things parents can do with their kids to get them ready for kindergarten,' said Colleen Thompson, a C.F. Tigard kindergarten teacher who is organizing the event. 'This is especially for parents whose kids haven't gone to preschool. And everything will be in English and Spanish.
'All the schools in Tigard and Tualatin have been alerted to promote this, and we've been working on it for eight to nine months. Now we're just trying to get the word out. It's a great idea, we hope. And this is for the whole district, not just Tigard.'
The event is geared for people with kids 4 or 5 years old 'because the more prepared they are, the better they will do in school,' Thompson said. 'We want families to feel comfortable, and we'll have different agencies there to help.'
At C.F. Tigard, there is a waiting list to get into the Head Start program, which means not every student who could benefit is getting into the program, according to Thompson.
'My class and I made a video called, 'Turn Off Your TV,' that will be shown,' she said. 'We brainstormed things to do instead of watching TV.'
The idea for the event actually started last spring, when Thompson went to a kindergarten summit for Washington County sponsored by Verizon, United Way, the Commission on Children and Families, and other organizations.
'The idea was to provide a better transition for families with kids going into school so they would be better prepared,' Thompson said. 'We broke up into groups by school districts and planned our own events.
'I really think this will be a great event,' Thompson said. 'We just want families to be there.'
