Consistently ranked as one of the top 25 producers at Sotheby's International Realty nationally, Neill has sold more than $270 million of property since 2015 for which he was recognized as "epitomizing the new generation changing the face of Bay Area real estate" by San Francisco magazine and the Luxury Marketing Council.

Neill has also set numerous sales records in San Francisco's emerging neighborhoods in a variety of price ranges. A $6.5 million sale of a modern residence in Cole Valley in 2015 eclipsed the neighborhood's prior single-family record sale by $2 million. Also in 2015, a $9 million sale set the new price record for a duplex in Cow Hollow.

BUZZ-Indian Oil Corp hits near 3-mth low; technicals suggest end of uptrend
** Shares of Indian Oil Corp fall as much as 3.93 pct to 378.05 rupees, their lowest since 31 March
* BSE up 0.23 pct; NSE adds 0.19 pct * Retail shares rally ahead of parliament vote on FDI in multi-brand retail * Indian tech shares drop after Cognizant SEC filing By Manoj Dharra MUMBAI, Dec 5 Indian shares gained on Wednesday for the sixth time in seven sessions on hopes the government will muster a majority in parliament on a crucial vote to allow foreign direct investment in multi-brand retail later in the day. Shares in organised retailers such as Pantaloon Retail India Ltd and Shoppers Stop rallied on hopes of a favourable vote for the government. Traders said optimism ahead of the parliament vote, that will pay the way for more reforms, have triggered a rally in mid-cap and small cap indexes and is a sign of structural bullishness in the market. "Markets remained cautiously optimistic before the eve of the event in the Parliament," said Kaushik Dani, a fund manager at Peerless Mutual Fund. "Sentimentally, a lot of things are leaning towards what is going to happen today." The BSE index gained 0.23 percent, or 43.74 points, to end at 19,391.86, its highest close since April 27, 2011. The broader NSE index rose 0.19 percent, or 11.25 points, to end at 5,900.50 for the first time since April 13 2011, clearing the psychologically important 5,900 level. Shoppers stop rose 7.53 percent, closing at 464.70, its highest since July 25, 2011, while Pantaloon Retail gained 3.26 percent to end at 237.65, its highest close since Sept. 22, 2011. State Bank of India rose 1.44 percent after a senior executive told reporters that the Indian government is looking to infuse 40 billion rupees ($732 million) in the bank. Other state-run banks that gained were Punjab National Bank , which rose 3.42 percent and Bank of India, which ended up 2.3 percent. Tata Motors rose 1.25 percent, buoyed by a Morgan Stanley report which maintained its 'overweight' rating and said it is optimistic of a strong rebound in sales in the January to March quarter. Property developer DLF Ltd jumped 4.5 percent, posting its biggest gains since Oct. 4 on hopes of a strong pick-up in launches in the second half of FY13, dealers said. All major tyre makers gained. Apollo Tyres rose 2.25 percent, Ceat Tyres added 2.6 percent, MRF was up 4.13 percent, while JK Tyres & Industries was 4.4 percent higher. The gains tracked a fall in the price of rubber, a key raw material which constitutes nearly 40 percent of the production cost of tyres. Rubber futures have fallen 6.4 percent in five previous trading sessions. However, technology shares fell on fears that Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp may lower its revenue growth guidance for 2013 based on compensation targets for top executives. Sentiment was also dampened by Cowen's downgrade of Infosys Ltd to 'neutral' on Tuesday due to fears of a protracted revenue growth recovery. Infosys ended down 2.25 percent, Wipro Ltd fell 1.8 percent and HCL Technology dropped 1.4 percent.

How do You Deal With Not Knowing Anybody at an Event You're Attending With Your Significant Other?
I'm headed to wedding this weekend, Brittany is a bridesmaid and I've met the bride a handful of times, but never the groom.
I'm a pretty outgoing person when it comes to meeting new people, but a wedding seems like an awkward place to meet the groom for the first time. Brittany is fortunate enough to be a bridesmaid in her friend's wedding this weekend… Brittany has been friends with the bride-to-be, Chelsi, since high school and now she gets to stand next to her when she marries her best friend.
That's great news and I'm not trying to sound greedy and make this about me, I just don't know a sole that will be there. I'll be the guy sitting alone at the ceremony and then at a table during the reception with a group, who again, I don't know.
It might be weird and awkward, but I'm taking it as a chance to meet some new people who have known Brittany for a long time… let the dirty secrets pour out!! And you know what is going to make it easier to talk to a bunch of strangers until the bridal party breaks away from their table and the dance begins… BEER.
What do you do when you're at an event with your significant other, you have to be split apart for a while and you have no idea who anybody is?

This is a discussion on Different Carry Gun within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I have the Ruger SP101 also......, but I also have the Ruger LCR in 38+p. I think the LCR would make a great pocket carry ...
I have the Ruger SP101 also......, but I also have the Ruger LCR in 38+p. I think the LCR would make a great pocket carry handgun. Very light at 13.5oz unloaded and you can carry some very effective rounds for it. Personally, I don't like pocket carry and would much prefer iwb carry. I have a Glock26 that nearly disappears in a tuckable holster carried on my appendix (left side). It shoots like a fullsized handgun, carries 10+1 of 9mm+p and is very reliable. I think you could easily carry it or one of the many single stack 9's in a "tuckable" holster.
academy sports and outdoors had it for $479.
Having a similar problem, I decided on a two-fer...I got the 238 and the 938. One carries just about as easily as the other. Both vanish under a sport coat if I decide to carry on the belt or iwb (Galco Summer Comfort's really good for this, and you can snap it on and off). Both vanish in a pocket, sometimes the 238 wins out depening on the kind of pants I'm wearing (suit pants, 238 is a bit lighter so it doesn't pull down quite as much).
I'm really enjoying both these little blasters...
Nice choice on the Sig P238.
I went with the Sig P938 for pocket carry since my other handguns are 9mm...I didn't want to have to start stocking up on another caliber just yet.

I am going to purchase some buffalo bore 380+p in both hardcast and JHP. I have been doing some reaserch on them and they should penetrate the standard 12", but I will do my own research too. Right now I'm using speer gold dots.
If I had to keep my shirt tucked I would pocket carry and or use a tuck-able holster. Belly bands are ok but, warm in summer.

I'm doing the Walk For Lupus Now this Saturday. Times are tough for all of us, but I hope you can give a dollar to the cause. 100 pennies! Check under the sofa cushions, dump out your Arrowhead jug, every little bit helps.
What's in it for you? A tax deduction, and more importantly, the right to walk around self-satisfied and superior because you donated to a worthy charity. The larger the donation, the larger the ego you can flaunt!
INTERNATIONAL DONATIONS ALSO WELCOME! It's via secure credit card transaction, so there are no boundaries 🙂 Thanks in advance!
I will be walking with Club Mo, which is in support of Maurissa Tancharoen-Whedon (yes, of the Whedons), a very cool and talented lady. She has lupus and chronicles her trials and tribulations (most recently with organ failure and chemotherapy–yikes!) in her blog: http://itssonotsexy.tumblr.com It's well worth a read and will give you insight into the daily struggles of someone who is severely affected by the disease.
And if you want to pass this around your 'verse, Thank you again!

Leonardo DiCaprio Caught In A Frenzy Of Eager Fans After Leaving 'The Wolf On Wall Street' Set [PHOTOS]
Leonardo DiCaprio! Apparently, that's what was racing through his fans' minds as they bombarded him hoping to get a sneak peek of the Titanic star. This Los Angeles native is en route to the release of his newest movie, The Wolf of Wall Street, an upcoming film based on the dilemmas faced by real-life New York stockbroker Jordan Belfort.OMG it's
Leaving the set solo of his co-stars Matthew McConaughey, Jon Favreau, Jean Dujardin and Gene Hackman, and sporting his all blue ensemble didn't seem to camouflage DiCaprio. He attempted to work his way through the crowd with his bodyguard at side, who Daily Mail claims was even unable to shield DiCaprio from the madness.
DiCaprio didn't look too thrilled with the storm of autograph-begging, but that didn't stop the paparazzi-like fans! I mean, who wouldn't throw their camera in front of Leo's face to snap a quick pic? I sure would!!

Now those are destroyed, too, and the animals are strewn about, bloating and stinking, as if in a tableau of "Guernica."
The rainy season is just arriving to form "stinking yellow mud."
And "stinking rich" is the smell of zero carbon emissions at eco-friendly tech company campuses.
Less informed than people who don't even watch the stinking news.
Some men clepe that sea the lake Dalfetidee; some, the flome of Devils; and some the flome that is ever stinking.

present participle adjective from stink (v.). Modifying drunk, first attested 1887; stinking rich dates from 1956.
Old English stincan "emit a smell of any kind" (class III strong verb; past tense stonc), from West Germanic *stenkwanan (cf. Old Saxon stincan, Old High German stinkan, Dutch stinken), from the root of stench. Old English swote stincan "to smell sweet," but offensive sense began in Old English and was primary by mid-13c.; smell now tends the same way. Figurative meaning "be offensive" is from early 13c.; meaning "be inept" is recorded from 1924. To stink to high heaven first recorded 1963.
c.1300, from stink (v.). Sense of "extensive fuss" first recorded 1812.

This post is a follow up to a comment that David Z. made , when he mentioned that the steering wheel in his Phaeton made a groaning noise when he turned the car on or off, and the steering wheel moved up-down and in-out. Other Phaeton owners have occasionally mentioned this noise in the past. I have not had this problem with my Phaeton, however, while I was disassembling the steering column a few weeks ago to install the paddle shifters, I found what is causing this noise problem on other Phaetons.
The steering column assembly is quite tightly shrouded. There is a spring-loaded shroud assembly that fits down and over the top of the steering column. You can see this assembly if you tilt the steering wheel down to the lowest possible position. I have identified it in the photo below with arrows. Please forgive the presence of the screwdriver in this photo I took the photo for a different purpose, and I am in Africa now, there are no Phaetons here I can use to take another photo.
Shroud Assembly
The lower and side surfaces of this shroud have a felt tape attached to them, to enable the upper cover of the steering column to slide against the shroud without getting scratched up, and without making any noise. The felt tape is affixed to the shroud with a double-sided adhesive tape. In the photo below, you can just barely see the felt tape at the bottom of this shroud. You are not supposed to be able to see it if you have not disassembled the parts.
Felt Tape on Lower Edge of Shroud
For some unknown reason possibly heat buildup in the car when it is parked outside on a warm, sunny summer day the adhesive that holds the felt tape to the shroud is loosening up, and allowing the felt tape to peel off of the shroud. When this happens, you will either have direct contact between the shroud and the upper cover on the steering column, or, instead of the upper cover on the steering column rubbing (quietly) against the felt, it will rub (noisily) against the residual adhesive left behind after the felt strip gets displaced. Hence the groaning sound.
In the pictures below, you can see that the felt strip has peeled away from quite large areas of the shroud on my car. When I noticed this, I thought it was abnormal, but because I was not encountering any problems, I just made a mental note to pick up a new roll of adhesive felt strip at my VW dealer, next time I was there, and replace the felt. I didn't think any more about it other than that.
Note evidence of failure of the adhesive that holds the felt strip in place
The fix for this problem should be pretty simple, although I am speculating about how it would be carried out, because I have not yet had a chance to do the job. But, heres my speculation about how to fix this:
Remove the two trim bezels that cover the stalks that protrude from the steering column. I have been unable to find instructions for this in the Phaeton Repair Manual, so, I have provided these photos. To remove these bezels, you need to twist the steering wheel around such that you have access to the single Torx bolt that holds the bezel in place.
Removing the stalk trim bezel retaining screw
It is NOT necessary to remove the airbag I had it out for another, unrelated reason when I took this picture.
The same procedure is followed on the other side.
Loosening the bezel with the VW Trim Removal Tool
If you know in advance where you should be poking at with the VW Trim Removal Tool, the job is much easier.
Pop the tangs on the upper cover free from the lower cover clips they engage into
Now lift the upper cover up, pull it forward over the steering wheel and remove it.
You will now have easy access to the entire lower surface of the shroud, and you can remove any damaged felt strip, clean off the adhesive residue using an appropriate solvent (3M Adhesive Remover is my favorite), then install a new felt strip. Be sure to do a perfect job of cleaning any adhesive residue off of the upper steering column cover if you fail to do that, the adhesive residue will grip onto the new felt strip, and tear it off once you start moving the steering column again.
I have not actually done this job (Ill do it when I get home, when I finish up the paddle shifter installation), however, I don't think it will be a difficult job to do. All it requires is attention to detail making sure you do a perfect job of removing both the damaged original felt strip, all the adhesive on the lower part of the shroud, and any adhesive that may have transferred to the upper cover of the steering column. Plus, you will also need about one foot of new felt strip material, which costs about 50¢. That is considerably less expensive than replacing the whole darn steering column, or the motor
If the steering column on your Phaeton makes a noise when it moves up or down (or in or out), you can test to see if the cause of the problem is the felt strip or not: Just press your finger against the upper cover of the steering column, and see if that results in any change in the nature of the sound that is made when the steering column moves. If the sound changes when you push on the upper cover then, chances are the sound is being caused by excess friction between the upper cover and the shroud that surrounds the upper cover.
Below are pictures of the "Squeak and Rattle Repair Kit" that every North American VW dealer has. You can obtain the replacement adhesive backed felt material from this kit.

Prince George's County authorities placed Potomac High School on lockdown for about an hour and a half Wednesday morning as police responded to a call for a shooting nearby in Oxon Hill.
At about 9:15 a.m., a woman called 911 reporting that two men, one with a gun, confronted her, said Officer Harry Bond, a spokesman with the Prince George's County police department.
"According to the victim, the suspect shot the gun in the air before fleeing the scene," Bond said.
Schools officials and police said the school was placed on lockdown as a precautionary measure for the activity outside of the school. The lockdown was lifted at about 10:50 a.m., Bond said.
"There is no information leading us to believe the school is associated with the call for the shooting," Bond said.
Police don't yet have a description of the suspects, Bond said.

1.3 Education (UNESCO)
The UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) aims to:
• Gather a wide range of quality statistical information to help Member States analyze the efficiency and effectiveness of their programmes and to inform their policy decisions;
• Interpret and report on the global situation with regard to education, science and technology, culture, and communication;
• Develop new indicators to better reflect emerging policy issues, especially in developing countries;
• Set and apply standards so that data are cross-nationally comparable;
• Reinforce national capacities enabling Member States to improve the quality, analysis and use of national and international data.
Work programme
The Institute's current programme includes:
• Improve the quality of education data collected through annual surveys, in co-ordination with OECD and Eurostat through the shared UOE (UNESCO-OECD-Eurostat) methodology in order to obtain a core set of quality education data, covering all levels of formal education from pre-primary to tertiary, as well as literacy and educational attainment data;
• Develop benchmarks and monitoring international goals, especially the Millennium Development Goals (see 3.3.5) and the objectives of Education for All (EFA);
• Develop and maintain key measurement frameworks and classifications (e.g., ISCED) and developing new indicator methodologies;
• Work with donors to reinforce national capacities in the production and use of education statistics, particularly in Africa and Asia;
• Analyze and interpret education data - i.e. turning data into information;
• Implement the Literacy Assessment and Monitoring Programme (LAMP) in participating countries and prepare to report results in 2012.
Data dissemination and analysis
The UIS releases education data three times a year (January, May, and October) through its on-line Data Centre (www.uis.unesco.org).

The Afghanistan and American governments have sharply condemned efforts by the new govrnment of Pakistan to reach agreements with Taliban forces in the northwest regions. Afghan Foreign Minister Rangeen Dadfar Spanta said bluntly: "Anyone thinking that they are able to reach peace in the region through what we call an appeasement policy–we consider it is a wrong and dangerous policy." In Washington, the State Department raised questions about the new Pakistan effort for peace. Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte told a Senate committee: "The media has reported that the government of Pakistan has been exploring peace agreements with certain groups in trrbal areas. Given past failures, we have raised our concerns about these negotiations with Pakistani leaders." The United States has made clear its opposition to these peace thrusts.
Perhaps, if the Afghanistan government and the United States government had a track record of being able to offer a logical and successful program for peace in the Middle East and Asia, it might compel Pakistan leaders to reflect on their actions. The Bush policy of non-negotiation has proven disastrous and the proof is the ever increasing incidents of terrorism and the growth in power of groups like Hizbullah and Hamas. On one hand, Bush mocks Senator Obama for seeking to hold talks with terrorist nations, on the other hand, he supports Israel peace negotiations with Syria.
The only logical conclusion is George Bush wants to control who speaks with whom and he alone will decide if it is appropriate to hold talks with terrorist nations.

Did You Know?
Exact derives from a form of the Latin verb exigere, meaning "to drive out, to demand, or to measure." (Another descendant of exigere is the word exigent, which can mean "demanding" or "requiring immediate attention.") Exigere, in turn, was formed by combining the prefix ex- with the verb agere, meaning "to drive." Agere has been a very prolific source of words for English speakers; it is the ancestor of agent, react, mitigate, and navigate, just to name a few. Incidentally, if you are looking for a synonym of the verb exact, you could try demand, call for, claim, or require.

How to Root Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus in few simple steps
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, which is the sequel to Samsung's first tablet, the Samsung Galaxy Tab offers quite a bit more than the first iteration of the device. With a dual-core processor, more internal storage, better screen resolution, and much more, the 7″ tablet is one of the main competitors in the 7″ tablet race. Also, it's rootable, meaning that users can obtain root access to their devices to flash custom ROMs and other modifications and tweaks. Despite being a little older, the Galaxy Tab Root method continues to be updated every now and then and it can be confusing to know which root method is the right one.
As stated there are several methods to root Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus released and they are all—to some extent—the same process. For all download links, click on the source link, which will have the downloads you need to get started.
As per the norm, we are not responsible should anything bad happen to your device. Any modifications you make you do under your own free will.
How to root Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus

Earlier this month, dozens of museums, galleries and art
spaces across Los Angeles hosted parties to commemorate the launch of Pacific
Standard Time, a massive celebration of the L.A. art scene circa 1940 to 1980.
While some of the larger institutions are tackling capital-I Issues—"Now
Dig This! Art and Black Los Angeles" at UCLA's Hammer Museum, for
example—other spaces are approaching the topic more obliquely.
Royal/T Café is normally a Japanese-style exhibition
space, retail store and "cosplay" maid café in Culver City. (That's short for "costume
play.") Through January 2012, the 10,000-square-foot storefront has more in
common with Greenwich Village than Ginza, thanks to "East Village West," an
examination of Los Angeles' influence on New York City's early punk scene. The
show is co-curated by artists Ann Magnuson and Kenny Scharf.
These days, Magnuson is primarily known as an actress, but
East Village veterans of a certain age will remember her as fixture in the
downtown Manhattan art scene. In the early 80s, she ran the highly influential
Club 57, a neo-Dada performance space that helped turn St. Mark's Place into a
counterculture Mecca. Scharf, of course, is a renowned pop artist—and Keith
Haring contemporary—whose work has been celebrated for decades.
Overall, "East Village West" is a success, even if you're
too young to remember the uproar when Quiznos opened on St. Mark's Place. It's
not often one can see Basquiat hanging next to Haring hanging next to Tseng
Kwong Chi—outside of a museum, that is. But as one ventures deeper into the
installation (and, physically, into the space), it becomes the "Club 57
show." Which is understandable—posters, photos and videos from Magnuson's
venue are an effective documentary of NYC's downtown art scene. And for
visitors of that certain age—let's call them Baby Boomer Punks—the memories of
spiked hair, skinny jeans and cocaine-fueled nights will come flooding back.
At least there's no arguing the greatness of Royal/T, a
converted office building located close to Culver City's galleries and
restaurants. Opened by philanthropist and avid art collector Susan Hancock, the
space has already hosted several impressive shows. (I'm sorry I missed 2009's
"I Can't Feel My Face," curated by KAWS.) So even if you don't take
fashion cues from the cover of David Bowie's album Aladdin Sane,
it's worth the trip to the west side.

Athens Christian will try to sweep its regular-season series with Athens Academy and improve to 10-0 on Tuesday.
The Eagles (9-0, 2-0 in Region 8-A) edged Athens Academy (5-2, 0-1) 7-6 on Friday.
"We're going to have to bring our A-game," said Athens Christian coach Allen Osborne, whose Eagles will host Athens Academy at 5:55 p.m. Tuesday.
"They're good, well-coached. They get ready to play against Athens Christian."
Here's what to expect today:
Athens Christian's Brett Branton, who is one of three pitchers in Class A to have three wins on the mound, is expected to start Tuesday. Athens Christian's Austin Turgeon also has three wins on the season. Turgeon came on in relief for Athens Christian on Friday.
Athens Academy has scored six runs or more in each of its seven games. But they've also given up a lot of runs. The Spartans lost 10-8 to Clarke Central in February and allowed nine runs in a win over Oglethorpe County and seven in a victory over Putnam County.
Athens Christian has won three of its past six games by one run. The Eagles edged host Hart County 6-5 earlier this month, and slipped past host George Walton Academy 2-1 on March 4.
"We had the lead (against George Walton) and kept the lead the whole game," Osborne said. "They scored in the sixth to make it 2-1."
Branton scored the game-winner in Athens Christian's 7-6 win over the Spartans on Friday.
Osborne has yet to lose a game in his first season at Athens Christian. Osborne spent nearly three years as an assistant at Georgia.
"We did not expect to be 9-0," Osborne said. "Our guys have done a tremendous job in getting the ideas down that we wanted and done a good job of playing our game."
Athens Academy -- which split its series against AAAAA Clarke Central and topped AA Oglethorpe County -- will try to avoid starting its region schedule 0-2. The Spartans will finish the week with games against Providence Christian on Thursday and Friday.

The doctor says that I have trigger thumb and insists that it is not related to the surgery.
I use my hands a lot for work and this is really impairing for me. I am not someone that is quick to sue for frivolous reason. However I am angry that I have this pain and reduced range of motion because the CTR surgery.
If the surgeon had advised me of this possible outcome after CTR surgery, I would have lived with what I had, which was more livable and less painful than trigger thumb.
What are my options?Surgery for CTR was 4 months ago, instead trigger thumb started 4 weeks ago. Doctor says it is unrelated. I don't believe it and researching online I find out that most of the folks that have trigger fingers have had CTR surgery. This should have been disclosed to me prior to surgery.
You may find it helpful to review the Legal Guide I have created on Avvo.com which deals with medical malpractice and what it is. If, after reviewing the Guide, you believe you are the victim of medical malpractice, you should set up an appointment with a local personal injury attorney who handles malpractice cases.

There are many good attorneys in Milwaukee that do malpractice. However, what you are describing sounds like a tough case on both liability and damages. Malpractice cases are very costly to pursue, and most attorneys have to make a business decision on whether having constant pain in your thumb justifies the time and expense that goes into these cases. I feel bad for you , and it is difficult when you use your hand almost every minute of the day. Bottom line, is you need to find someone locally who is willing to invest the time and money in your case, and there still has to be an expert that said the surgeon deviated form accepted standards of care in the operation.

Recommended cam for roller 355 LT1 heads
Hey guys I've been debating on a cam change for my 355 4 bolt. It has fully ported LT1 heads, 1.7 rockers modified to work on GENI blocks. It has hyp. flat top pistons 2 valve reliefs. It currently has a zz4 cam in it. I am looking into going stronger but would like an opinion. By the way the heads are ready for big lift. Intake is a 300-36 Holley and db Holley 750.
Any suggestion would help.
Wait... are we talking about LT1 or LT-1? Late model LT1 heads won't work on a first gen block.
355Nova, if you can get me all the info on the motor, I'll run it up on DynoSim and help you choose a cam that will work. I need head flow 0.100" through 0.700" with valve sizes and static compression ratio.
Was there no high-rise intake that would work on these heads?
I've seen it done once.
Well heads were welded and redrilled with a mig welder. Not costly though. Suprisingly it was 150 a head. The 300-36 intake fit perfect but I had to weld and redrill the sucker also lol! It has a very very fast response.
Flow is .400, Static compression is at 10.73, valves 1.94 & 1.50, I believe the flow was around 221 cfm flow after the port work. I couldn't really go bigger in valve size they were pretty much maxed out. Block is 4 bolt 350-.030 over
I don't really know the specs on the Holley 300-36 I've looked all over but no success yet.
221? Are you sure? That's awfully low.
If you didn't get a bar chart with the head work, how do you know anything about them? Did you just walk in and tell the guy to grind on 'em and you would hand him money?
Scroll down and look at this orange and blue bar chart from Racing Head Service. This is what I would expect to see when I picked my heads up and I would expect it to reflect some improvement over stock for my money. If you didn't see a before and after comparison of the flow, the heads could be worse now than they were stock. I hope you see where I'm coming from with this.
If you flew into this whole head porting thing blindly, you have more money to waste than I do.
Of course
Not a problem I did recieve a document like that one. I will get those numbers in as soon as I can you for.
.100 72 int 56 exh
.200 140 int 104 exh
.300 195 int 144 exh
.400 231 int 171 exh
.450 236 int 172 exh
.500 262 int 184 exh
.600 260 int 193 exh
Exhaust / Intake Index
72.01 %
Flow Index
921.09 I can barely make this one out paper is faded a little
Please let me know if you need any other information.
Thanks a bunch!
Well, flyin' by the seat of my pants, I have figured the static compression ratio at 10.57:1 and have researched and found the specs on a ZZ4 cam. Intake opens -8, intake closes 36, exhaust opens 42.5, exhaust closes -1.5 for an intake duration of 208 and exhaust duration of 221. Lift with 1.7 rockers is 0.532"/0.541". Intake centerline is 112, exhaust centerline is 112, lobe separation angle is 112.
I never thought I would find myself sayin' this, but leave this motor alone. If you want more power, build a bigger motor. This one is maxed for a 355 street motor. More cam will make 20-25 more hp, but the best cam I tried will not make more torque than the ZZ4 cam makes in this motor. In my opinion, it would be foolish to change cams just to make a little more hp and the same or less torque than you're making now. Here is your motor on the DynoSim. Gobs and gobs of torque right from the git-go. If you're not rippin' the tires off from an idle, then your tune is off.

First off Thanks Techinspector! Yeah the engine accelerates very very quickly. Very good engine. I don't spin tires but I did crack a TH350 tranny twice. I had to go to a 400 tranny. Sounds good I will do as you recommend. I'm going to post it on craigslist and get going on a big block. Time for a new thread lol!

The best treatment for a disorder that is caused by lack of light is...light. If you don't get enough of light and sunshine, you can effectively use bright light therapy and usually it brings great telief within a week.
The trick is knowing how to choose the right SAD light therapy box. This is an article that will help you with that: http://www.light-therapy-reviews.net/light-therapy-for-sad/
The holidays are approaching quickly but so are the long dark days of winter.
For many, this darkness creates havoc on mood and motivation as depression sets in and seasonal affective disorder takes over.
SAD is real and typically occurs when summer comes to an end and the fall season begins. Many notice a downward spiral on cold, damp days and an improvement with the sun.
Typical symptoms include low mood, higher anxiety, sadness, feelings similar to grief, the desire to sleep a lot, as well as a loss of motivation and joy.
When the weather changes and people feel the warmth and brightness of the sun, these symptoms often dissipate and people report better mood, higher motivation and overall feeling more happy.
It can happen at any age and affects women more than men, however men are not immune.
People commonly complain of SAD especially after moving from a southern sunny climate to a darker, more northern climate. It is usually the reason people become "snowbirds," wintering in warm environments.
Treatment is varied and involves recognizing SAD early to be prepared.
First, remember to find the light! There are a number of "happy" lights that involve using bulbs or boxes to mimic the brightness of a bright sunny day. The light registers through the eyes to the pineal gland in the brain in order to ward off the winter blues.
Use this light daily for maximum benefit. Put it on the counter, the table or the desk and enjoy the benefits through the fall and winter.
Second, seek help before the depression becomes too much. Some people need an antidepressant medication or natural alternatives such as 5HTP, SAMe or St. John's Wort until the spring to help them through.
Consider counseling and find ways to motivate yourself when it is cold, dark and raining outside and exercise or social gatherings seem like a chore.
Third, get vitamin D testing. Research shows that levels less than 30 ng/ml are too low and for many, proper vitamin D levels help with SAD.
Fourth, consider a vacation to a sunny spot.

Hi Dr. Carrie
This is something I suffer from - a rather acute case for about five months a year.
I do two hours of phototherapy per day, take medications only when necessary, exercise, eat well, make sure I get enough Vitamin D and yes, have switched summer vacations to winter vacation in the sun.
Nonetheless, I am often rendered incapable of getting out of bed or something as simple as brushing my teeth.
Some have "winter blues" - maybe something like "baby blues" only the winter blues last far longer. But some end up with a deep depression, just like baby blues can quickly develop into PPD for some women.
It can be a terrible, life-changing affliction and for some, it can take moving to another part of the country or out of the country in order to escape.
Thanks for this very timely post, I think many Northerners suffer from SAD in some form, the world over, and for others it becomes a lot more serious. I encourage everyone to reach out for help if it starts seriously affecting their physical and mental health.

aims to make money with Motorola. The upcoming Motorola X will be an important indication of what Google and Motorola can produce together. Motorola has made no secret that this will be the first Motorola phone that lets everyone know who Moto's daddy is.
The last time Motorola and Google worked so closely on a smartphone might have been the Motorola DROID which was the first Android model to launch with Android 2.0. You might recall that the OG Motorola DROID came with stock Android. The . To reiterate the speculation we passed along on Monday, the Motorola X is expected to be introduced at Google I/O in May. Speculation calls for a July 8th launch of the phone at a price of $299 on contract from Verizon while the model will also be offered unlocked and off-contract at the Google Play Store. The Motorola X will also be offered by other U.S. carriers.

Israelis Rise Up Against the Oligarchs
Ilyan Marshak was outraged when he heard that Bank Leumi would forgive as much as $42 million in debt owed by companies controlled by Nochi Dankner, one of Israel's so-called oligarchs—a reference to the group of 20 families that control about 50 percent of the value of the Tel Aviv stock exchange. Marshak wanted to know why a rich man was getting a break while he worked odd jobs to pay off about 100,000 shekels ($27,600) of debt. "These tycoons are getting bargains because of their influence in our economy, and that comes at the expense of the public," says the 28-year-old Tel Aviv resident.
Marshak was one of thousands who posted on a Facebook page titled "Bank Leumi Consumer Boycott," after a local paper reported in mid-April that the bank had agreed to erase some of Dankner's debt as part of a broader corporate debt restructuring. The scion of a family that made its fortune in table salt and real estate, Dankner has spent the past 15 years building his own sprawling empire, which includes the country's biggest supermarket chain, Shufersal, and its largest mobile operator, Cellcom Israel. The deal with Leumi would have allowed the businessman some breathing room as his IDB Holding struggles to meet payments on about $560 million in debt.
Reports of Leumi's arrangement with IDB hit a nerve in Israel, where there is a perception that inequality is growing. In 2011 thousands protested rising food and housing prices, along with the political and economic influence of the business elite.
Bank Leumi, Israel's No. 2 bank, at first tried to shrug off the controversy, with Chairman David Brodet telling Army Radio on April 18 that while the lender was "attentive to the public outcry," the debt settlement with Dankner would go ahead. The Bank of Israel weighed in, saying regulators would review the deal, while a parliamentary finance committee put out a statement saying it would hold a special session to discuss "debt arrangements made by banks with tycoons." Then on April 19, Leumi Chief Executive Officer Rakefet Russak-Aminoach announced that the bank was walking away from its deal with Dankner.
"The rules of the game have been changed, as the public can quickly mobilize on the Internet," says Shlomo Maoz, chief economist at Alfa Platinum Investment House. "This is the first time a bank caves in to public pressure and ditches a well-connected businessman."
In an April 20 letter to employees, Dankner noted that banks in Israel had restructured $5 billion in debt since 2008, and suggested he was being unfairly singled out. "It's easy to destroy," he wrote. "It's much harder to build." In response to questions from Bloomberg Businessweek, IDB e-mailed a statement that said: "We are convinced that we will reach a fair agreement with the banks."
After Leumi backtracked, social activists took to the Web to celebrate. Eldad Yaniv, a well-known figure on the Israeli left, posted on Facebook, "We have the power to make an impact on forces which until only yesterday seemed too strong for us."
The bottom line: Bank Leumi has backed away from a deal to forgive as much as $42 million of a tycoon's debts in the face of protests.

The Wi-Fi mesh networking equipment market had over 100% shipment growth in 2006, and will have over 90% growth in 2007, reports In-Stat (http://www.in-stat.com).
Strong growth will continue for Wi-Fi mesh access points (APs) for the next several years, as shipments grow more than three-fold between 2006 and 2011, the high-tech market research firm says. Most of that growth however will come between 2006 and 2008, with growth rates rapidly declining starting in 2009.
"Cities will continue to deploy municipal mesh networks, but the rate of new deployments after 2008 will slow, due to concerns over the business model," says Daryl Schoolar, In-Stat analyst. "Growth in the enterprise (large business) market, plus the need to replace previously deployed nodes, will help offset the slowdown in shipments to new municipal networks."

When a tragedy strikes, it seems natural for those affected to ask for people's prayers and for those concerned to pray for the victims. This held true with the recent shootings in Colorado Springs and San Bernadino. But this time, multiple pundits and media figures mocked those who were praying. Prayer won't solve the problem, went the theme, gun control will!
Lutheran journalist Mollie Hemingway has written a piece about this that you need to read all the way through. She cites the various commentators and publications that indulged in this "prayer shaming." She then showed how they too are praying with unquestioning faith to their omnipotent deity–the federal government! She concludes with an excellent discussion of what Christian prayer is and why it is important. I'll quote the first few paragraphs after the jump, but then click the link to read the whole thing.

The Problem
JogPost needed a reliable and accurate solution which would allow them to create delivery rounds across London.
The solution would need to be professional for use during pitches as well as function as a key operational tool within the business.
Given the company ethos, JogPost were keen to select a solution that would maximum operational efficiency and reduce repetitive activity with regards to map creation and production.
It was also imperative that the solution be capable of highlighting the percentage of owner occupied or council premises on a street.
Likewise, they needed to understand if a street mostly contained terrace houses, semi or detached to accurately apply a cost to the job based on the time required to serve the round.
The Solution
JogPost selected the Geoplan StreetFinder solution to deliver against their objectives.
StreetFinder is simple to use with no training required, and is accurate and up to date. These factors combined, ensure that the solution fulfils its purpose during pitch situations and continues to meet the business needs on a daily basis.
From an operational perspective, targeting is improved with reference to residential and business counts, supported by penetration figures for dwelling type and tenure.
In addition to the above, significant time and money has been saved by automating the process and removing the need for laborious manual report production, data cutting, map drawing and production.
Essentially, StreetFinder creates a seamless process that generates all the information and outputs necessary to secure, plan, cost, implement and control the job.
The Benefits
- Increased Return on Investment.
- Significant time saving tool operationally.
- Improve the quality of the map and report output for use at point of sale, in planning and in the field.
- Benefits associated with the potential for repeat business when used as a professional aid during pitches.

From their perspective this amp has been a fiasco now. It is a blot on their reputation as a company and it has already hurt their credibility, they dont want to risk something going wrong and hurting their reputation further.
Until now we have heard story upon story of "just a little delay" and "small issues" and "testing" so the community is unlikely to believe that any future announcement of a delay is legitimate. The amp has been a huge public relations nightmare for them. You run a small business and know that reputation matters, they burned a lot of that reputation capital in the community with the amp project and recovering that will NOT be easy. It takes a lot of work to build and more to re rebuild a good reputation, and they have taken a big hit to that already. It is unlikely they will want to risk further damage by putting a date out before it is VERY close to done.
Call me crazy but the best way for them to gain back some respect would be to give a date and actually stick to it. Thus providing their followers with something real to plan for.

8 year old Sophia Grace Brownlee went viral last week, racking in over 7.6 million views so far for her cover of Nicki Minaj's 'Super Bass'. Of course, it was only a matter of time before Ellen got ahold of her. Earlier this week, Sophia Grace and her cousin Rosie came on The Ellen Show and got the surprise of their lives when their idol Nicki Minaj showed up.
The clip from The Ellen Show of Sophia Grace and her cousin meeting (and singing with) Nicki Minaj has gone viral itself, racking up nearly 1 million views so far. Before meeting Nicki Minaj, the cousins sat down with Ellen to talk about themselves and their viral video. These girls are adorable!
The original video went viral not only because of Sophia Grace's talent, but also because it was controversial–should an 8 year old be singing the lyrics to 'Super Bass'? So Ellen asks Sophia the question that's been on all of our minds—does she know what 'Super Bass' is about or understand the lyrics to the song? She says, "No, I just learned the words really quickly and I like the video because it's got a motorbike made of ice and pink! I just love pink!"
How amazing is it that these little girls were able to have this once-in-a-lifetime experience, all thanks to a YouTube video? That must be the girls' parents crying in the audience! And this isn't the first case we've seen of this happening. Earlier this year little Maria Aragon went viral singing Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' and had the chance to perform onstage with Lady Gaga.
Check out Sophia Grace and Rosie's interview with Ellen and their amazing meeting with Nicki Minaj below, and let us know what you think!

What is the best bucket paint for rollers? Maybe some good mixes too? And also, what are the best ways of carrying this paint without the bucket? Water bottles...
Sign by Dealighted - Coupons & Discount Shopping
just any bucket paint. it doesn't matter. its just paint.
If carrying white paint you could put it in milk jugs.
Or maybe paint the outside of the jug white then you could carry whatever color you want.
I roll with a bucket full of my jiz. Opaque as fuck.
nope, just potent.
I can impregnate women just by winking at them
it needs to be done.
