Publisher's Description▼▲
D. A. Carson's father was a pioneering church-planter and pastor in Quebec. But still, an ordinary pastor-except that he ministered during the decades that brought French Canada from the brutal challenges of persecution and imprisonment for Baptist ministers to spectacular growth and revival in the 1970s.
It is a story, and an era, that few in the English-speaking world know anything about. But through Tom Carson's journals and written prayers, and the narrative and historical background supplied by his son, readers will be given a firsthand account of not only this trying time in North American church history, but of one pastor's life and times, dreams and disappointments. With words that will ring true for every person who has devoted themselves to the Lord's work, this unique book serves to remind readers that though the sacrifices of serving God are great, the sweetness of living a faithful, obedient life is greater still.
How better to learn about a man than from a son who deeply loves and respects him? This is exactly how Memoirs of an Ordinary Pastor is written. Dr. Carson is a renowned Christian scholar and professor, yet, with the same Christian humility his father displayed in all his work, Dr. Carson presents us with the legacy his father gave to him and to the Canadian people. Reading Memoirs causes deep, sometimes wrenching introspection. It is an important chapter in Christian history. Im very glad I read it, and am still pondering it.

Open Letter to Republican Party Leaders!
Ladies and gentlemen, and all those who seek to keep America free from terrorism, it is time to act against the leading proponents of terrorism–WHITE CHRISTIAN MALES! From Columbine to shootings in Finland to shooting in Germany and to the horror in Norway, the culprits are always the same –WHITE CHRISTIAN MALES! For some reason, organizations like Fox News and Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck have focused attention on the wrong males. It is not Muslim males that engage in mass murder of the innocent, but WHITE CHRISTIAN MALES who grab guns and spray bullets killing innocent children. We arrest thousands in America who are of the Muslim faith, but if you added up all the people killed by all the Muslims we have arrested, it would not be a tenth of innocent individuals killed by WHITE CHRISTIAN MALES!
I know that Michele Bachmann and Sarah Palin, and Mitt Romney and some of the other guys whose names I can not spell, constantly warn of Muslim terrorists, but never of WHITE CHRISTIAN MALE terrorism. Examine the evidence. White Chrisitan males and females are candidates of the Republican party(Oh, there is that black dude, Cain, but he is certainly not very Abel as a candidate). What does this suggest? The entire coterie of Republican white male and white female candidates are simply potential terrorists. Keep America safe from terrorism, lock up all the WHITE CHRISTIAN MALES and send them to prison. At least, the rest of we Muslims and Jews can then live in peace. Put it this way, would you like some WHITE CHRISTIAN MALES living on your block and threatening the lives of your children??

GAC has acquired 21.63% of Virginia-based Viridian (note: this is not Viridian Power) and brings engineering and design experience in the electric truck market from its Liberty Electric Cars business. GAC acquired UK-based Land Rover-conversion company Liberty in 2012 for about $17 million in stock. California-based Newport Coachworks will launching its first electric shuttle bus in February and will utilize Viridian's presence on the East Coast.
While little trucks like this aren't exactly the sexiest vehicles in the world, there is a market for practical EVs like this. Viridian's press release (available below) cites a recent Navigant Research market study predicting annual global sales for electric and hybrid trucks will rise from under 10,000 in 2013 to more than 100,000 in 2020.
Riverside, California, January 9th 2014, Green Automotive Company (OTCQB:GACR) today announced that it has acquired 21.63% of Viridian Motor Corporation (VMC), a US based electric truck manufacturer. Thanks to this alliance, the company continues to follow its strategy to become a leading player in electric vehicle niche markets.
With its unique experience in the electric truck market in the Europe thanks to their Liberty Electric Cars business, GAC decided that the American electric truck market was the next sector in which they should develop. According to a recent market study led by Navigant Research, the global annual unit sales for hybrid and electric trucks – including light duty trucks used by commercial fleets and all medium and heavy duty on-road trucks – will rise from under 10,000 in 2013 to more than 100,000 in 2020.
Ian Hobday, CEO of GAC, states: "There are an important number of synergies to explore especially with regards to supply chain management and commercial activities with our existing Californian bus manufacturing business Newport Coachworks, who plans to launch their first electric shuttle bus this February. This combination should be very beneficial for both businesses. Viridian would become our support partner for electric buses on the East Coast, where we currently do not have any presence."
Viridian Motor Corporation (VMC) is a company devoted to advancing twenty-first century transportation technology using alternative fuels and propulsion systems. This Virginian based company, is building fully electric, light duty trucks using their own electric drive train and unique battery packs.
Terry Langhorn, CEO of Viridian is confident that this deal will help both businesses strengthen their positions in this growing market: "We are very pleased to partner with the Green Automotive team, who has incredible experience in electric vehicle engineering thanks to their Liberty Electric Cars business. We look forward to working with them and providing a comprehensive support structure for the East Coast as they introduce their pure electric shuttle bus."

Colombo: Ajantha Mendis' record-breaking effort in the World Twenty20 opener, against Zimbabwe, has thrown a challenge to Saeed Ajmal.
"It's great to return figures of six for eight... Dekhiye, if I can, I'll try and do better... It will be challenging to improve on Mendis' record," Ajmal told The Telegraph at the Cinnamon Grand on Wednesday afternoon.
While Mendis mixes it up, Ajmal is a pucca off-break bowler.
Pakistan lost to England in a warm-up match a while earlier, but Ajmal took four wickets.
- Jayawardene hails Zimbabwe tormentor Mendis
- Ajantha Mendis makes a statement
- England beat Pakistan in practice match
"Wicket nikalna hamara kaam hai, that's what I do," Ajmal added, not sounding too concerned that he'd not been shortlisted for the ICC's Test Cricketer of the Year award.
"My biggest rewards come on the field, bahar award mile ya na mile," Ajmal pointed out.
But, surely, he was Pakistan's trump card... "This team has more than one trump card... Main koi akela nahin hoon," Ajmal replied, smiling.
Meanwhile, Pakistan captain Mohammed Hafeez is "excited" to be leading in such a big tournament.
Speaking exclusively, Hafeez said: "I've got a good team, so there's no question of being under pressure... Good players make a captain's job easier."
There's no disputing that.

Even if it was possible to run valves that big in a 305 head, even if it was aftermarket, I wouldn't want that, right? I mean, a head with over 200cc intake and 2.02 valves is going to be overkill on my 334. I am just trying to get a handle on the basics of engine breathing. I think I have cams down a little bit, but the breathing of heads and sizes kind of confuses me.
if your going to put the time and money in a stroker 305 might as well get good flowing heads
well, the 305 heads dont flow the best , but you must remember the motor is only the size of a 302.It may not run with the big dogs,but you will certainly be the boss of the 302 dogs left on the step.lol mike
Re: Stroked 305
Yea, that's kind of what I figured, but I wasn't sure. One of my posts on this thread says what I plan do do, but I am not sure if it will work out. I will repeat what I put there in case anyone missed it. Any of your input would be great. 305 bored .040 over to 3.776 bore with KB186 pistons. 3.750 stroke with a 5.7 inch rod. Clearly I would have to get this assembly balanced. I know that there will be some machining involved so that the rods don't hit the cam and the balancing pads don't hit either. The compression height on these pistons is 1.433 and they have a 10cc D-cup head type. With a 58cc head, I believe I can get 10.1:1 compression, perfect for what I am running. I plan to use the World Castings S/R Torquer heads because they have 170cc intake runners the 58cc chamber I want and 1.94/1.5 valves. Plus, they are meaty, so I can have them ported and polished if i so desire. It was also suggested that I use a comp cams extreme 256 or 262 cam because of their midrange power. I would probably use the Performer Air-Gap I have, and probably a carb around 600cfm in size. i also already have a 6AL ignition with a Flying Magnet Crank Trigger and MSD distributor, so I would probably just put that set up on this engine. I was also looking at Supercomp headers. Any ideas?
334 cid
Even this thread is a few months old I wanted to mention that a 334 we did for our company using a set of 5.565 rods,.030 305 forged pistons and of course 400 flexplate and dampner. It was done with a set of old TRW 305 pistons a 1529 (400) crank turned down, .020 off the deck .024 of the intake surface of the 882 heads with believe it or not 1.72 valves little port window matching and throttle body. Even with the small intake valves it's quicker than most 350s around and definitely out pulls 'um. OH, ands MTC1 cam... Vaccum is unreal and 18mpg in a short bed 90 chevy. Biggest advantage we noted was it pulls a heavily loaded 2 axle dump trailer up through the mountains and never ran warm, and stayed in overdrive. The small valves were by chouce. took a while to find the heads. Thinking of building another one with cast pistons for my daily driver.
Need Glasses
Thanks American Muscle... Got any idea where I can get info on how to adjust the crank balance on a stock 2442 crank? I lightened rods by 6grams before I was finished with the balance fixture, Kinda like shaving side burns trying to get them even. Also my pistons and rings are lighter, altogether about 10 grams per assembly. My crank was well balanced before. Not scared to drill the crank, but can't figure out how much to take out, and can't find an appropriate thread for the formula. Thanks in advance. Duntov
re crank balance
Thanks Eric,
That makes me feel better but I would like to know more about crank balance. I think it would be a good thread to start because there is so little information shared about the details/specifics/science as it applies to v8s.
I've noticed over time that if you have pressed pistons, the balance guy often either presses them on after or offers to. So when we get a small block in that's been balanced, (half of them) and press the pistons off, I clean and weigh them out. They usually average within a gram and a half from light to heavy. We do our own rods/pistons to a tenth gram. Not because we need to be to a tenth for our RPM range, but partly because I don't completely trust our fixture and scale that much. So figures if we are within a tenth or two that they hopefully are inside of a gram. The crank though, we're at the mercy of someone's computer lathe and never really know for sure, what we've got.
You think enough people would be interested in the subject to create a new thread? Thanks Duntov
I don't think you are gonna balance your crank with a lathe and drill bit.Google crankshaft balancing and see what you can learn.
Last edited by BBCMudbogger; 06-03-2010 at 08:11 AM.
There is no way you will be able to find anything that will tell you where to drill the crank at home just based off the amount you have changed the rotating and reciprocating weights as crank balancing is done on a dynamic balance machine, not static balance. With the small amount of your change just put it together, more than a few pro's "overbalance" the cranks they do, like 51-52% balance factor rather than 50/50, with the crank counterweights just a little heavier than the balance formula suggests.
re balance
I've no doubt you're right Eric. You too BBC, my lathe and bit comment was reference to a dynamic balancing fixture. Our balance buys used to call them balance lathes or crank lathes back in the day of analog fixtures 60s and early 70s. That's what I meant by lathe and drill bit. We had one in the shop in 69 and it dated back to late 30s Germany, but formulas have evolved since then not to mention accuracy with the newer digital units. I'm going to start a balance thread to see if someone with share the formula. Thanks Duntov
i've got an 305 bored 60 over and it ran pretty good before the computer went out of wack

Are you saying only to be careful in #1 only due to tacking (which I don't believe exists in Montana)? Or for other reasons? I think I said no one ever lived on my property until I bought it a decade ago--the people who built the house had just finished it as a weekend home and really never stayed in it except while finishing it--and the people who came through my drive came up maybe once or twice a summer or so for a few days at a time. So no one made regular use of my drive, including the people who put my drive in. Also those people improved the entire easement and their driveway, whereas before that it was apparently a really bad road.
I'll see if I can find anything on tacking in Montana, but I don't believe it exists, and if formal notice is required, it doesn't.

Of course, one of the most important factors for any ultraportable tends to be how long it can survive away from a socket. Sony claims seven hours for this machine, with an optional slice battery available for an extra £125 supposedly doubling this to a whopping 14 hours!
Unfortunately we didn't have a slice battery to hand to verify the doubling claim, and the SB didn't quite hold up to that seven hour estimate either. With screen brightness set to 40 percent and wireless radios turned off, our battery test isn't particularly demanding, yet the SB only managed five minutes over five hours. While that's hardly terrible, it's a bit too far from seven for our liking. However, in Stamina mode you might get closer than we did.
So how does the SB hold up in the value stakes? Rather well, actually. Admittedly it's not quite on a level with even slimmer, all-metal rivals like the 13in version of the Apple MacBook Air, Samsung Series 9 or Lenovo ThinkPad X1 (that's what Sony's VAIO Z is for), but then it costs considerably less. In fact, with a starting price of £700, it feels more expensive than it is.
Its affordable price puts the cheaper option in the Sony S Series into direct competition with the Toshiba Satellite R830. Between the two, we would say the Sony offers a sexier look, better keyboard and superior screen. On the other hand, the Toshiba has the edge in lightness, battery life, connectivity and – if you don't care about discrete graphics – specs, and also stays quieter under load.
In fact, we would have little hesitation recommending Sony's beautiful little laptop to anyone after an affordable ultraportable, were it not for one thing: it gets seriously noisy. All's fine when you're just typing away in a document or browsing the web. But when playing an intensive movie or game, the fans in the VAIO SB start to spin up, and they get loud!
To be fair, this is a complaint with many small, thin yet powerful laptops, including the Air. However, the SB does get noisier than most, which is a real shame as it's inaudible during light use. If this doesn't bother you, it's a versatile, well-connected all-rounder that represents excellent value.
Sony's 13.3in ultraportable is sleek, stylish, available in a range of colours, and stuffed with connectivity. It offers excellent build quality with a lovely aluminium keyboard surround; a good, backlit keyboard; decent screen and versatile specifications, which include discrete graphics for some light gaming. The only things preventing it from winning one of our coveted awards are that it trails the pack when it comes to battery life, and gets very noisy on occasion.
"However, in Stamina mode you might get closer than we did." So you ran the battery test in speed mode? That is quite unfair tbh! Considering you put this against others without having to run a ATI chip. If you did run it in speed mode and achieved 5 hours that is remarkable! Considering sony states in speed mode the battery should last 3.5 hours and stamina 7.5 hours!
At the bottom of the page under primary battery.
When i ran the SA (love it, replacing my thinkpad!) in stamina mode with 50-60% brightness with the extended battery i was predicted over 12 hours with battery bar. Another way is to limit the CPU to 50% of it's power consumption on battery. Also with the fans making a noise did you check the vaio control panel to have the fan's in balanced mode?
Thought I would post my comments after purchasing the SA!
I'd be interested in seeing the results of the battery tests in stamina mode, too. If it's one of the things preventing an award, it would surely make a big difference?
Review should have used stamina mode for battery test. Otherwise, a helpful review. Disapointed to hear there is no mic input.
@Chris, I'd be interested to know how long your SA is able to last in stamina mode with light use and without the battery slice. Also, are you getting excessive noise under load.
Also, what is the effect of the battery slice on weight and dimensions?
@ Ozaz
Ill try and do a battery test for you soon!
I done some measurements to compare to the laptop this is replacing!
Power Supply: 400g
Battery Slice: 500g
Laptop: 1600g (With HDD)
Total: 2500g
Thanks for the info on the weight. No need to bother with the battery test. I've been reading a few other reviews and user comments and the consistent picture is that the built in battery is good for about 6.5 hours during real-world light use with WLAN on and stamina mode on.
@Chris and all:
Sorry for the tardy comment, I had submitted one before but it must have gotten lost in the great data tides.
No, I did NOT run the battery test in Speed mode - nor in Stamina mode, but on the same settings as every other laptop, hence keeping it fair.
Glad you found it helpful. We used custom battery-test settings to keep it on even footing with rivals.
How did you run it in neither speed mode nor stamina mode? Isn't the hardware switch a 2-level switch which can only be set to either speed or stamina?
IMO, battery tests should use the power saving features of the laptop as efficient battery usage modes would be a good reason for buying a laptop.
DUAL MONITORS - a warning. I read the specifications, saw it had VGA and HDMI outputs and got one for work. Guess what? It doesn't support dual monitors from both outputs. That is official from Sony technical support. Such a basic function from a laptop aimed partially at business and one with a dedicated ATI GPU as well. All my previous laptops which cost half this has this feature. I'm really surprised this isn't picked up in any review.
The sound and the speakers needed to be improved and it will be a great business laptop.
I bought this computer because I am a student and thought it would be a great laptop to get me through school....boy was I wrong. This is actually the worst computer I have ever heard of. I have only had it for just under three years and I will need to get a new one in a couple weeks. I would like to point out that I DO take GREAT care of all of my electronics, but for whatever reason my vaio has decided to chack out. The first year after I purchased it I had to replace the hard drive because it crashed on me. After I did that I needed to purchase another firewall and protection program as myone time use had been on the other hard drive. So far that is the cost of the laptop (which was not cheap) plus another $250 for the hard drive and premium protection. Now I need to get a new computer because this obe has completely died. First the screen would take longer to load than normal, and today it just completely shut down and I cannot get it to turn back on no matter what I do. Sorry, but this comouter is a piece of crap and I would NOT recommend it AT ALL. Your money is better spent on something different.

That Desmond Morgan decided to pledge to Michigan doesn't come as much of a surprise that watched his recruitment pick up steam over the last few months. The Wolverines were the first BCS level suitor to extend an offer and he is a lifelong fan of the Maize & Blue. The rising prospect predicted weeks ago that it wouldn't take long for him to reach a decision after traveling to Ann Arbor officially.
"I'm not looking to prolong it that much longer," he told GoBlueWolverine on December 1st. "I'm taking a visit to Northwestern this weekend and then the Michigan visit the following weekend. After taking both those visits I'll be able to nail things down and make a decision from there probably."
Northwestern made things made things a lot closer that many expected. Turning the Wildcats down proved to be very difficult.
"The decision is not at all an easy one," Morgan said after his Michigan visit. "Both schools are top notch."
In the final analysis, however, the pull of the Maize & Blue was too good to resist. Morgan broke the news on his facebook page earlier this afternoon with oe simple phrase:
"Desmond Morgan is a Wolverine. Go Blue!"
The Maize & Blue moved on he versatile youngster primarily for his defensive prowess at linebacker, but the 6-1, 215-pounder is athletic enough to make the move to fullback if that were deemed necessary.
GoBlueWolverine will have more on the newest member of Michigan's 2011 class in the hours to come.

Am I the only one who hears crucifix?
Thanks for posting the Stroller Queen video.
It seems their products have not been picked up by any large retailers here in US, other than Woot and Amazon. (They don't direct to any retailer from their site, that I found, though they do sell through some independents) The plan to distribute through their company site is not a bad way to keep a profit with limited sales, so we'll see how it goes. It allows them to sell a product that the big box buyers won't pick up, which is always a problem in the consumer goods market! (I know, I was in the biz)
A point of correction, though: the lap shield restraint was used for years here in US, until shoulder harnesses came along. It is not a "new" feature, but rather, a rejected feature.
All told, though, it looks like a good product, although not a value proposition.... you can spend more!
...and to think, I used to ride in the very back of our Buick station wagon, or in the Chevy pickup bed (in summer). Hang on!!!
We bought the Kiddie Cruiser model from a previous woot. We LOVE it!!!! Yes, it's more expensive than some other boosters, but it's worth it. It's comfy, grows with your child, is hard for your child to get the strap wrong because of the guides. My child is TALL (95%) so the extendable seat is a big plus. And with the lat h guides, inserting and removing it from the car is a breeze.
just received my new world plus seat. I have a LATCH system in my 2013 BMW. Do I also use the shoulder belt over the protection sheild or just the LATCH system on sides and top?
Was looking for this and have no clue how I missed it! Fark! Any idea if and when this will be be featured again on Woot?

I was somewhat afraid by some of the comments on different web sites about lipo. But, once I had it done I felt like most of the stories I read do not include me.
I had lipo of the lower and upper abs, between the legs, and under chin for a mini face lift. My experience was excellent. I came ahead of time and was taken in at the scheduled time. The nurses prepared me for op. and then the nurse anesthesist prepared me for light sleep sedation, which is not the same as general anesthesia. The precedure lasted aproximately 3 hours which I did not notice. After, I woke up and immediately took a pain pill, and with the help of the nurses and my assistant I went to the car and was taken home. I slept rather well, and to my amazement I did not encounter lots of fluid like some have reported.
My doctor did give me pain medication and sleeping pills. As to the sleeping pills I only used them the 1st and 2nd night. Pain pills I used them for three days every 4 to 6 hours, and then only sporadically. The pain was mild, and only bothersome if trying to sit while going to the toilet. Get a soft toilet seat, it helps. I am still healing, but I think it is all going according to schedule. My neck was bruised for the 1st week, most of the bruising left by the 2nd week. There are some hard spots that need to be massaged but they are coming along. As to the abs they are iproving every day. Between the legs there is no bruising, but blood accumulation went toward my knees, and that is gradually disapearing.
As to excersice, I will say I love walking, and I started walking on the 2nd day. As time went on I walked more and more, and I also started bycicle riding my bycicle towards the end of the 2nd week. Now I am in my 3rd week and today I went bycicling on a trail for about an hour. I am glad I went through this. Most everyone that sees me know says they notice a difference. This has also motivated me to watch what I eat, and since the surgery I have lost weight. I would say from the surgery itself about 10 lbs. and by watching my diet another 5lbs.
As scarring goes I am using a patch that helps erase scars.
Usually the scars from surgery are small, but the patches help erase any scarring left behind.

Could audiophile be done for so little, I wondered?
Amazingly, it seems, the answer is yes. I've been listening to these headphones for a few weeks now for at least a couple of hours a day, and I can safely tell you that they are, by a distance the best value item of hi-fi equipment I have ever bought, borrowed or built. These headphones are so good that even connected to a humble MP3 player they sound almost as good as my four grand hi-fi set-up. That's something I'm still having trouble coming to terms with.
I plugged them into the Trekstor Vibez player I reviewed a couple of weeks ago, and the clarity and detail they reveal in music is nothing short of astonishing. Pat Metheney's jazz guitar has a ring that I can only imagine being more real when standing a few feet from the man himself on stage. The piano on Stacey Kent's The Lyric album really sounds like you've got Dave Newton playing in your head. It's scarily realistic.
These are also the only pair of headphones I've ever put on my ears that capture the kind of bass impact you get from a really good quality pair of speakers. And it's not just any old bass either: you really get a thump of quality with the 325i's. You can hear and feel the double bass player plucking away at the strings during the tracks on Lisa Ekdahl's stunning Back to Earth album. Complex rock is rendered with incredible texture and vigor, and Ayrshire's best, Biffy Clyro, assaulted my eardrums with joyous rhythm and rip-roaring energy.
What I did next, however, really took the sound to the next level. I ordered a battery-powered headphone amplifier from a DIY builder in the States. I paid £20 (yes you read it right - there's no missing zero!) and he built one, stuck it in a mint tin and sent it across the pond to my home address. The one thing that small MP3 players often suffer with is low power output. That doesn't usually matter when they're powering earbuds or ear-canal noise isolation phones such as the ones we've reviewed from Shure, Etymotic and Ultimate Ears in the past, but when larger headphones such as these Grados are connected you have to turn the volume up to near max to achieve decent volume levels and at those levels music can often sound strained and a little compressed as the player's amplification circuit is stretched to its limits.
A headphone amp rectifies that, boosting not only volume, but more importantly, dynamics, and the difference is really noticeable in all types of music. All the clarity and detail is there, but when you turn it up the music sounds effortless rather than strained. Even without turning the volume up, stuff like big classical pieces and choral music take on an extra depth and dimension. It's another essential piece of kit for audiophile listening on the move.
There are a few problems with all this, though. I now don't want to listen on the move with anything less than my Grados. But they're not very portable - especially not when you're carting around a portable headphone amp as well, and neither do they block out external sound. The open back design is also likely to seriously annoy anyone who sits next to me on a plane or train (at least I think it does - no one has asked me to turn it down yet), and the cable is so long that you have to wrap it around your waist if you want to use them on the move. Finally, in order to plug them into the 3.5mm socket on a player you have to use an adapter as the cable terminates in a larger 6.3mm socket.
The enormous gold earcups and retro radio-ham appearance also make you look pretty gittish, and the supra-aural earcups aren't the most comfortable in the world for extended listening either. But for all that I wouldn't go back. Not for anything. Not to anything else. Everything else now pales in comparison.
So what does this all prove - apart from the fact that I've got an unhealthy obsession with music and spend too much of my time and money on audiophile gear? It proves that in a world of diminishing returns and hi-fi snobbery, anyone can enjoy audiophile results for under £500.
For anyone with even a passing interest in experiencing good sound quality, it's worth experimenting with this sort of a set up. Believe me, you won't regret it.

I have child that attends Rootstown Middle School and was shocked and saddened to learn that there was very little discussion surrounding the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy. According to my daughter, the principal made a short announcement over the loudspeaker during homeroom assuring the students of their safety. That was it.
Rootstown leadership had an opportunity to be great Monday and instead fell flat on their faces. In her social studies class, my daughter has a current event due every two weeks, yet this horrific tragedy was not even mentioned in that class. How is this possible? What could be more current or impactful in the lives of these young students than the despicable acts that robbed an entire nation of precious innocents? There is a Sheriff's Department office across the street from her school; how difficult would it have been to have a deputy's car parked outside the school, to help reassure our children that they truly are safe?
I wanted to witness the lack of leadership myself and decided to attend the school board meeting Monday night. To my dismay, the topic was only brought up by the superintendent midway through the meeting, saying that our hearts go out to the family's and friends impacted by the Sandy Hook tragedy. There was no discussion about school safety, any changes in the near future, the fact that my daughter's homeroom class has no locking doors, no talk about encouraging our children to reach out to a teacher, principal or counselor with any questions. Nothing.
Rootstown educators, Monday was your opportunity to be great and you failed. You let me, my child and a community down. This is not a gun control issue, a political issue or even a mental health issue; this is a humanitarian issue.
I believe most parents probably spoke to their children in the aftermath of last Friday's events, but it takes more than that, especially with today's social media outlets. It takes a village to raise a child and we need to do everything in our power to prevent these types of tragedies from happening in the future.
We need to expect better of our community leaders, our educators and most of all of ourselves.
Eric Kokochak, Rootstown
Hello Eric,
We seen you at the recent board meeting and didn't realize why you were there, but we were there for similar reasons. Our daughter was actually a victim of harassment from a parent in the middle school. The mother went in to the school and directly to the locker room to find my 12 year old daughter where she was then verbally attacked and threatend on school grounds. Yes thats right a grown woman went into the middle school and then proceeded into the locker room (where our daughter was getting undressed for a game)to find our 12 yr old daughter. She was successful!! The attacker was never asked to leave and stayed to watch the sporting event while my daughter was there suffering inside after what just happened to her. We have been back and forth with the school district and our answers have been avoided. Since October 1st, 2012, we have had four incident reports revised since they keep getting the details wrong or trying to cover themselves in my opinion. They totally "dropped the ball" or "missed" this one. These are the words they used. Nothing still has been done to the attacker besides a phone call to say not to do it again according to the incident report. Since then our daughter has transferred out of the school district to a place where we can provide our daughter with a safe environment and a school that will protect her if she is verbally attacked and threatend; which Rootstown failed to do. They have failed our daughter since the 4th grade and we wish we would have made that move a lot sooner. When she was threatened, there were no coaches or staff around when this incident took place so our daughter had no one to escape to. In the handbook it states students should never be left alone, but she was left alone. We are trying to get the laws updated and to make the school safer especially after the most recent tragedy our nation was faced with. We are dealing with dangerous people at Rootstown and they are not dealing with these incidents appropriately. We know for a fact that we are not the only family that has been "missed" as I am sure this will all come to light very soon. When we went to withdrawl her from the school district all we got was "sorry it didn't work out." Of course it wasn't sincere since if they really wanted it to work out they would have tried to talk to our daughter and console her to reassure her that they wanted her to stay, but they "dropped the ball" and "missed" that opportunity as well. We were never called to ask why we were leaving. We felt they were happy we left since they didn't have to deal with us anymore (the good people), but we will keep fighting because that is what parents do. They fight for justice for their children. Our daughter never received any justice over this incident and it was so wrong in every way you can imagine. I can go on and on about these past three months and the emotional pain and stress this has caused our daughter and our family. We just hope and pray this doesn't happen to another family so we are fighting for these precious children in our community to make sure they are safe. Thank you Eric for your comment and article as we know we are not the only ones that have these feelings about Rootstown. We personally know of other families that feel the same way as well. Good luck to you and your family and we hope for the best for all these children in the Rootstown School District. Oh by the way, the same day the article was in there and it listed a lot of area schools that are taking action and stepping up security in their schools because of the tragedy, but guess what school wasn't one of them?? They say they have a no tolerance for incidents as in our case, but they have tolerated ours and many more. There really should be NO TOLERANCE. We are talking about grown adults, they should know better and if they don't then they should not have the privlidge to come to events and they should have consequences to their actions.
I agree with you Eric! What's even more scary for you (at least I think it is), there's a college campus across the street from your schools. You hear so much about things happening on college campus'.

MANILA – A powerful typhoon battered the northern Philippines on Monday, toppling power lines and dumping heavy rain across mountains, cities and food-growing plains. The storm killed at least one man in a landslide and left 45 fishermen missing.
Typhoon Utor, described as the strongest globally so far this year, slammed ashore in mountainous eastern Aurora province with sustained winds of 175 kph and gusts of up to 210 kph.
Footage from ABS-CBN TV network showed a woman swept away by a raging river in neighboring Isabela province. The woman waved her hands for help as she struggled to hang on to debris while being buffeted by huge waves in the muddy waters. It was not immediately clear what happened to her.
"We have no official report yet, and we do not know if up to this time she has not been rescued," said Norma Talosig, a regional civil defense director. She said the woman lived alone in a low-lying area in San Agustin town and refused to be evacuated.
In mountainous Benguet province, a 22-year-old man died on the way to a hospital after he was pulled from a landslide that hit the roadside canal he was clearing, said regional civil defense official Andrew Alex Uy.
The typhoon triggered waves of up to 2.5 meters and left scores of fishermen missing.
In northern Pangasinan province, 25 fishermen on board three boats failed to return home, said provincial police spokesman Senior Inspector Ryan Manongdo.
Twenty people from the eastern provinces of Catanduanes and Camarines Norte also were unaccounted for. Authorities were hoping they just took shelter in coves and nearby islands, said Office of Civil Defense regional director Bernardo Alejandro IV.
"I hope they're just waiting for the typhoon to pass and will show up as soon as the weather clears," he said.
As of Monday afternoon, the typhoon had crossed the Philippines' main northern island of Luzon and was off the country's northwestern coast with winds of 140 kph and gusts of 170 kph, government weather forecaster Jun Galang said.
He said the typhoon may intensify over the South China Sea as it moves toward China. He said the storm carried a lot of rain but was moving fast, so the rainfall was not concentrated in one area. Utor was forecast to make landfall in Guangdong, China, on Wednesday.
About 1,000 residents in the central Philippines' Bicol region spent the night in shelters, while Aurora province was without power, the national disaster agency said. Radio stations reported that some roofs were blown off and a covered basketball court washed away in the town of Dinalungan.

I'm a storyteller, not a strategist
Anytime I get on the phone with a business who wants to hire me to do some social media work and they ask me about, analysis, measurement tools and anything that has to do with numbers I tell them "I'm an Indian person who is lousy at math. Contrary to popular belief we're not all good with numbers." My strength is the ability to tell great stories, and create content. Does that mean I'm useless? Absolutely not … and it's because there is a digital divide emerging.

Swino is dead, ya'll.
The feral pig, who became an international sensation last month after raiding a Port Hedland, Western Australia, campsite and drinking 18 cans of beer, is dead after being run over by a car.
During his legendary drunken rampage, Swino reportedly broke into garbage bins for a midnight snack and harassed a cow and other local animals.
The following day, the pig had a visible hangover, reported the campers.
After becoming roadkill, he was identified by his distinctive facial markings.
Godspeed, Swino!

The mob-linked Ontario betting ring hit by a dramatic police raid on Super Bowl Sunday was up and running again within hours — processing new wagers even as police held a press conference to announce the bookies' demise.
Near-identical websites for Platinum Sportsbook, registered in the South Pacific island of Tokelau, were active shortly after the arrest of six men and the seizure of its online domains; Platinum's bookies were alerting customers to the change at the same time police were telling reporters the network had been "dismantled," the
National Post
has learned.
Even customers' account numbers remained the same.
Nothing has changed. Police are making a fool of themselves
"Agents have been notifying players of changes. Nothing has changed. Police are making a fool of themselves. This book will never be shut down," said a long-time Platinum customer who asked that his name not be published because, "I don't want the Mafia blowing my house up."
During the raid on a hall north of Toronto, police broke up a lavishly catered Super Bowl party attended by 2,700 patrons and seized 20 computers where illegal bets were being placed, investigators said.
The party was an annual promotional event by Platinum Sportsbook for customers of their websites, PlatinumSB.com and BetWho.com. The organization, linked to the Mafia and the Hells Angels, was making more than $1-million a month from gambling, police alleged.
The RCMP also seized Platinum's websites, replacing the password-protected login screens with a notice: "The website you are trying to access has been restrained by court order granted to the Attorney General of Ontario with the assistance of the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit."
But replacement sites, with new telephone numbers, were online soon after, using domain names PlatinumSB.tk and BetWho.tk.
Tokelau consists of three coral atolls in the South Pacific with a population of about 1,400. The sites were registered in 2004, suggesting a succession plan was in place should the primary sites be taken down.
"We anticipated that attempts would be made to get their illegal gambling site operating as soon as possible as they stand to lose money from it being inactive," said RCMP Sgt. Richard Rollings.
"Our investigation is ongoing and there may well be further charges and action.… We will be looking to determine if any of the previously arrested individuals are behind this new site."
Platinum is an unusual entry in the growing world of online, offshore betting.
Such operations are typically legal where they are registered and where their computer servers are located. Transactions are illegal when bets are placed within Canada with a non-governmental agency.
In Platinum's case, the company is registered in Willemstad on the Caribbean island of Curaçao, and in Nicosia, Cyprus, according to its website; its computer servers are based in Costa Rica, according to
But Platinum is a hybrid, using the technology of online betting but remaining a hands-on enterprise dealing in cash and cheques.
"Basically what you do is find an agent, they get you an account. They meet you to pay your winnings or collect your losses," said a Platinum client.
In the old days, agents were called bookies, but the modern agents run customers' bets through Platinum websites. Different agents have different deals with Platinum.
"The guys who bet at Platinum are not bad people, they are just regular guys with families who just want to have a little fun," the client said. "Most of the agents are gentlemen, smart guys. The part where the business starts to get dangerous is when you have guys who don't pay. Then more of the real bad guys come into it.
"Platinum has a lot of debt collectors; mostly the guys will just go and beat the s— out of guys who don't pay."

Microsoft Corp. on Wednesday is set to unveil enhancements to the VoIP (voice over Internet Protocol) capabilities of Windows CE in the upcoming version 5.0, as well as several partnerships with manufacturers and integrators that will use the platform.
The operating system forms the basis of Microsoft's platforms for embedded, automotive and mobile computing. A lot of vendors want to add VoIP as an application to wireless handhelds and other devices, said John Starkweather, a product manager in Microsoft's Embedded Devices Group. The Redmond, Washington, company plans to announce the VoIP enhancements at the Voice on the Net (VON) conference taking place this week in Santa Clara, California.
In the new version of Windows CE, Microsoft has added multiparty audioconferencing capability, unified messaging and integration with Exchange Server with calendar and contact searching features, according to the company. They complement what has been a simpler set of telephony features built in to CE 4.2.
However, most customers don't adopt CE primarily for its features because they use it as a platform to build their own software, Starkweather said. Most of the improvements are intended to help vendors speed up their development and get their products to market more quickly, he said. Microsoft also offers integration with existing infrastructure, such as Windows Server software.
Microsoft sees VoIP as one application among many that can run on different devices and be offered by service providers to their customers. In order to make money from voice, service providers and software and hardware makers want to add capabilities on top of it, such as videoconferencing and integration with customer relationship management software, Starkweather said.
South Korean consumer electronics maker LG Electronics Inc., Japan's NEC Infrontia Corp. and China's ZTE Corp. are among Microsoft's manufacturer partners that are to be announced Wednesday. Also Wednesday, Microsoft is set to introduce system integrator partners, including Datacraft Asia, Net2Com Ltd. and BSquare Corp., that are using the platform to deploy systems for companies and service providers.
Microsoft also will announce a service provider partner, Vonage Holdings Corp., which is looking to offer its customers "softphone" software based on CE 5.0 to install on devices such as Wi-Fi PDAs (personal digital assistants) that will let them make VoIP calls, Starkweather said.
Inter-tel Inc., which currently sells IP office phones based on CE 4.2, sees CE 5.0 as a more complete phone platform, according to Jes Nielsen, a technical lead at the company who is working on future phones and demonstrated the current model at VON. With the new OS, Inter-tel may be able to run the whole phone on CE on a single processor, he said. Inter-tel's CE 4.2 phone, called the Model 8690, has one processor to run CE functions and another for higher level telephony features. The addition of support for features such as multiple-party audioconferencing should make Windows CE's capabilities more comprehensive.
Inter-tel, in Tempe, Arizona, is aiming to get its next generation of phones on the market in the first quarter of next year, Nielsen said. They may include voice recognition for voice-operated control of the phone and come in a variety of different configurations at different prices. The 8690 has a list price of US$1,495.
Atrium C&I Co. Ltd., a Seoul, South Korea, company that demonstrated current IP videophones based on CE 4.2, is looking to enable multiple-user videoconferences on future phones using CE 5.0. Its current WebQ Plus models support only one-on-one videoconferencing, said John Kim, vice president of Atrium. The CE 5.0-based phones probably would ship by the end of this year, he said.
Microsoft expects to make CE 5.0 available as a finished product between June and August of this year, Starkweather said. The company did not disclose any pricing changes from version 4.2.

As the general manager of the new Hotel Breakwater on Miami's crowded South Beach, Axel Gasser is eager to drive traffic to his 100-room property.
Factor in the threat of Hurricane Irene to South Florida — and its actual impact on some key tourism markets — and Gasser's eagerness turned to something more like nervousness.
Gasser and his staff found a solution in the latest travel fad: flash sales — short-term sales lasting from a few hours to a couple of weeks that help hoteliers and airlines to fill unbooked space at deeply discounted rates.
"We have to give a higher discount than we like to do, but the exposure is just absolutely tremendous," said Gasser, who said the hotel picked up more than 500 room nights from a quick sale on a few websites last week, before the Labor Day holiday. "It's a good investment to get the maximum exposure."
As the summer travel season winds down, one thing is clear: Travelers are still keeping a wary eye on the economy while they book their trips.
According to an American Automobile Association travel forecast, about 31.5 million travelers nationwide planned to take a trip 50 or more miles away from home during Labor Day weekend — a 2.4 percent decrease from last year. AAA is blaming the drop on economic uncertainty.
Research shows that those who are traveling are motivated by deals: 20 percent of leisure travelers bought some kind of travel service as a result of a "flash sale" or time-sensitive offer received by email from a provider such as a hotel or airline, according to the Ypartnership/Harrison Group 2011 Portrait of American Travelers. Fewer booked through private-sale sites such as SniqueAway (7 percent) or a collective buying site such as LivingSocial Escapes (8 percent), the survey showed.
And more than 80 percent of leisure travelers who use the Internet for trip-planning purposes said low-price guarantees or the ability to check for the lowest prices are the most desirable features about travel sites.
While sites offering short-term "flash" sales for items such as clothes, shoes or home accessories have been around for the past few years, several new options offering travel-focused deals have entered the market in just the past several months.
HauteLook, for example, started more than three years ago as a women's fashion sale site and added travel last November after asking members what other products they'd like to see on the site. Other flash-sale sites include Jetsetter, Off&Away and Vacationist. "Everybody — and it doesn't matter what financial bracket you're falling in — everybody nowadays looks for a bargain," said Heiko Dobrikow, general manager of the Riverside Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
The hotel was recently featured on Groupon Getaways with Expedia, a joining of two megaforces in daily deals and travel that launched in July.
"It's really about kind of taking advantage of an evolving new segment of travel that's extended from the daily deal business that has proven to be quite successful," said Charlie Severn, Expedia.com's director of marketing for new channels.
Through the Groupon/Expedia partnership, the Riverside offered executive tower king rooms for $95 a night, parking included, which Dobrikow said represents a 51 percent savings. By late Wednesday, 322 deals had been sold.
The idea, he said, is to attract business during a slow time and lure new loyalists.
"You try to dazzle the customers with your service, with your location so they will become repeat customers," he said.
Peter Yesawich, chairman of travel services marketing company Ypartnership, said hoteliers were initially reluctant to embrace these type of quick-hit sales.
"The technique became popular in the darkest days of the recession," he said. "They did this on a very calculated basis." The sales, he said, "became very effective techniques to fill what were otherwise unfillable holes in their forecast."
Ed Perkins tracks flash sales and websites as a contributing editor for SmarterTravel.com. Like SniqueAway.com, it is owned by TripAdvisor.
The field has grown increasingly crowded over the last year or so — a trend Perkins expects eventually will reverse.
"I suspect that like so many other niches of the travel market that there's going to be a winnowing down and that two year from now, there's going to be fewer of these sites than there are now," he said.
He checks discount claims regularly and said he's found many great deals — but warns consumers to do their homework without blindly trusting that a hotel is representing the savings accurately.

My Ride: 2000 323i
View My Garage
Did mine today, 93k miles. 2000 323i. I have the GM 360R transmission.
Used Fuchs Titan 4000 ATF, $ 9/liter - 7 liters + the new filter kit was $93 delivered from KO performance. By the way, on the Fuchs ATF bottle it says Dextron III g.
Got to say thanks for the awesome DIY, would never have tried this myself.
For me the worst part was getting the car jacked up high enough. Tried to lift the front from the center jack point but ended up doing one side at a time, I could get a higher setting on the jack stands that way. Rear end was a relative breeze, used the U-brace in front of the differentialand lifted both sides at once.
2nd worse part was the refill, just really messy (I'm a klutz, and didn't have help).
Finally, getting that damn fill plug out and then in sucked. I didn't have the L-shaped t45 torx wrench, used a 5/16 box wrench over a 3/8"drive torx socket bit (this was demonstrated on the diy on the wiki). Pulling on it did nothing, but a couple shots on the wrench with a hammer, and it loosened up. I was shocked, my plan B was to just go to AAMCO to change the fluid/filter for me if I couldn't get the plug out. No way for me to get a beaker bar under there. My advice is to get the damn L-shaped tool.
The old atf was dark, but didn't smell burned. Got about 5.5 L out.
I decided to change mine because a couple weeks ago when it was cold (for texas-30's), I got the transmission warning, and the shifts to first and second were VERY hard. The problem cleared when it warmed up, but after researching and reading the boards, decided to change it.
Anyway, I'm really thankful for these boards, I've never done any work on my car (not even oil), so by my count the awesome Diy's and contributors have saved me about $ 700 in shop labor in less than a month (Thermostat/lower radiator hose change, Ac belt tensioner and belt, drivers side window regulator, and Atf fluid/filter change).

I know I asked about the Harman vs the Vermont prior, but doing more research, the height of my current exhaust from my surdiac is 19" and the flue is 5" as pictured below. For me to install a Harman I would need to change my exhaust and my chimney.
After doing more research I found the the Hitzer 30-95 exhaust is 18" and the flue is 6" which peaked my curosity.
First off which stove is better since this is a long term purchase?
Regarding installation, can I make the Hitzer work in the same location as the Surdiac without doing brick work or chimney work?
I am going to be burning pea coal not nut, but I have no choice since I have 4 tons of it:)
Also, the hitzer is rated at max BTU's of 55,000, the Harman is 72,000 btu, does it make much of a difference?
As always thanks so much

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Camille Cosby, the wife of comedian Bill Cosby, on Monday defended her husband from weeks-long accusations brought by more than a dozen women alleging that the groundbreaking entertainer sexually assaulted them decades ago.
"He is a kind man, a generous man, a funny man, and a wonderful husband, father and friend," Camille Cosby said in the 210-word statement released by Cosby's publicist. "He is the man you thought you knew."
It is Camille Cosby's first public statements since the wave of accusations began last month causing networks to shelve projects with "The Cosby Show" Star and several of his standup comedy shows getting canceled.
Camille Cosby, who married Bill Cosby in 1964, called her husband "the man you all knew through his work" and blamed the news media for not vetting her husband's accusers.
"None of us will ever want to be in the position of attacking a victim," Camille Cosby continued. "But the question should be asked - who is the victim?"
In her statement, Camille Cosby referenced a recent discredited Rolling Stone magazine story about an alleged gang rape at a University of Virginia fraternity.
Cosby, the trailblazing African-American comic best known as the wholesome Dr. Cliff Huxtable on the long-running, top-rated television series "The Cosby Show," has never been charged.
He was sued this month for allegedly sexually molesting a California woman, Judy Huth, as a minor at the Playboy Mansion in 1974.
Cosby's attorney Marty Singer has called the suit meritless and alleges the 77-year-old comedian is a target of extortion. Continued...

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 4/4/2014 (1177 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A 44-year-old man is dead and several others injured, including four children, after a head-on collision between a SUV and a school bus on Waywayseecappo First Nation on Thursday night.
"I'm a bit shook up," band Coun. Lloyd Mecas said.
At approximately 8:30 p.m., Prairie Mountain RCMP responded to the crash on Shingoose Road.
RCMP said the SUV was travelling northbound on Shingoose Road when it collided with the southbound school bus.
All three passengers in the SUV were transported to Russell Hospital.
It was there that the man, who was sitting in the passenger seat and not wearing his seatbelt at the time of the crash, was pronounced dead.
Mecas said he knew everyone involved in the crash and that the death is having an impact on the community of approximately 1,200 people.
Waywayseecappo is located 40 kilometres east of Russell.
"Everyone is in shock right now and they're taking it pretty hard," Mecas said.
A 40-year-old woman, who was driving the SUV, and a 41-year-old man, who was in the back of the SUV and also not wearing his seatbelt, were treated for minor injuries.
The bus driver and four children passengers also suffered minor injuries.
Mecas said the bus driver is "pretty shook up" as a result of the crash.
Another woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said several community members helped pry the man and woman in the SUV out of the vehicle.
Others helped the children, who were returning from a youth gathering, to safety on the side of the road.
Manitoba RCMP spokesperson Tara Seel said investigators are continuing to comb through the evidence and that charges haven't been ruled out.
Alcohol hasn't been ruled out as a factor, either.
"Officers have to complete their testing and until their investigation is complete, we won't say that it was a factor, at this point it is considered to be," Seel said.
While she didn't get into specifics, Seel said "the officers have very reasonable grounds to suspect alcohol is a factor."
March was deemed Occupant Restraint Month by the RCMP and Seel said they continue to stress the importance of wearing your seatbelt while in a vehicle.
RCMP data shows 44 per cent of fatal crashes in Manitoba over the last three years involve the deceased being unbelted at the time of the crash.
Seel wasn't sure if the school bus had seatbelts, however, most buses aren't equipped with restraints.
"Any time a school bus that has children on board is involved in a collision it affects a number of people," Seel said. "We're very lucky the four children suffered minor injuries."
The name of the deceased will not be released, she said.

You will be able to display the information, station list; and use the message, SmartBeaconing TM function . You will be able to track your APRS® movement on the Internet websites.
Digital Group Monitor Function
The digital GM function automatically checks whether members registered in a group are within communication range, and displays information such as distance and direction for each call sign on the screen. This convenient function makes it possible not only to see whether any friends are in communication range, but also to instantaneously determines the location and relationship between all members of the group.
This function can also be used to send messages and data such as images between members of a group, permitting convenient and fun communication between friends when out for a drive or hike. Sent and received messages and images can be checked on the LOG List screen, with icons making them easy to distinguish.
Backtrack Function to Return to Departure Point
This function allows navigation back to the departure point, or a point previously added to the memory. When hiking or camping, just register the starting point or the position of your tent and then you can constantly check the direction and distance from your current position. The arrow of the compass display constantly shows the direction to the registered point, making it extremely convenient in finding your way back to the registered place – just move in the direction so that the arrow in the heading-up display
points straight upward.
Snapshot Picture Taking Capability
When using the handy speaker microphone camera (optional MH-85A11U), press the shutter button to capture a snapshot, then press the image transmit button to easily transmit the image data.
The snapshot image or received data is stored in a high capacity micro SD card that is installed in the radio. You can recall and send that image data from the SD card anytime. The image data size is 320 x 240 dots or 160 x 120 dots. Image quality can set from 3 types, and you can choose a format that is suitable for the image and purpose.
This image data also retains a time record and the GPS location data of the snapshot. It is easy to view and edit the data file after taking the pictures by using a personal computer.
A snapshot aids in navigating and returning to the pictured location; other various uses are possible.
Automatic Mode Selection (AMS)
The Automatic Mode Select function detects the receive signal mode and the
transceiver automatically selects one of the four communication modes according to the signal received. This is extremely convenient when listening for communications, as you do not need to be aware of the other party's communication mode. The transceiver can also be operated in a fixed communication mode.
Four (4) Communication Modes
The FT-2DR operates in one traditional analog mode and three digital modes! Enjoy communication in the mode that best suits your needs. purpose.
1. V/D Mode (Simultaneous Voice/Data Communication Mode)
Half of the bandwidth is used for voice signal with error correction. The transceiver uses powerful error correction technology developed for professional communication devices. The very effective error correction code provides benefits such as minimal interruption of communication. The basic digital C4FM FDMA mode provides a good balance between sound quality and error correction.
2. Voice FR Mode (Voice Full Rate Mode)
This mode uses the entire 12.5 kHz bandwidth to transmit digital voice data. The larger voice data size allows voice communication with high sound quality. Use this mode for pleasing sound quality communication between amateur radio friends.
3. Data FR Mode (High-speed Data Communication Mode)
A high-speed data communication mode that uses the entire 12.5 kHz bandwidth for data communication. The transceiver automatically switches to this mode when sending and receiving images, allowing a large amount of data to be transmitted quickly.
4. Analog FM Mode
Analog FM is effective for communication with a weak signal that causes voices to break up in the digital modes. The analog mode allows communication even at distances where noise and weak signals make communication almost impossible. The tried-and-trusted low-power circuit design uses less battery power than the digital modes.
5 Watts Solid RF Power
The FT-2DR outputs a maximum of 5 Watts of clean RF power, with selectable power-saving choices of 2 Watts, and ½ Watt also being available with a simple touch of the screen.
High Capacity Lithium-Ion Battery
With a high capacity 7.2v 2200 mAh battery pack (SBR-14LI) every operator can enjoy reduced charge time, and extended periods of talk time in between charging cycles.
Integrated 66ch High Sensativity GPS
Integral GPS receiver and antenna (located on top of the radio) provides location, time, direction and APRS® information. The FT2DR has a very useful GPS data transmission capability.
Smart Navigation Function
This is a real-time navigation function that records the location and direction of Group Monitor (GM) stations. Digital V/D Mode communicates information such as position data at the same time as the voice signal, allowing you to view the distance and direction of the other party in real time while communicating. This makes it possible to confirm your position and the other party's in situations such as hiking and driving where your positions are constantly changing, providing an easy way to meet up or join routes.

Although this well-weathered chippy closes at 5.30pm, that's late enough for its market-stall customers who've been up since dawn. There's an earthy romance to Something Fishy. 'Ea' in?' asks the server in a liveried visor-cum-hairband. If no, you get a polystyrene box; if yes, a china plate. Descriptions are deceptive: the 'small' cod protrudes from the box and overshoots the plate. Its batter is a crunchy golden coat, which yields easily to a light incision. The white flesh is succulent. A lemon quarter sits atop as a garnish: a lah-di-dah innovation, which we like.
The chips are chunky, firm and so plentiful as to leave scant room for the squirt of tomato sauce, self-applied at the counter. Some diners choose the first-floor experience; we prefer to sit next to the sliding windows at a blue Formica-topped table furnished with a cruet set and vinegar bottle with the fingerprints of the previous user on the glass, or outside where the market cries entertain.
You finish, belch, say 'lovely jubbly' and call for a slab of plump, moist bread pudding lightly toasted on top. 'Thassa pahnd, luv.' Up West, it'd be a tenner.

Thinking about buying these to see the quality anybody baught them yet.

Thinking about buying these to see the quality anybody baught them yet.
how much are the STS-V fogs from Luke?
$280 shipped seems steep for some knockoff fogs... (although if the quality is there, might not be horrible)
The STS-V fogs come with lights only, no brackets. Basically after removing your amber fogs they are garbage with ZERO resale value. They also cost nearly $200 each from Lindsey or any other dealers. So $400 total and two worthless amber fogs sitting around.
Now for $279 total you will have two sets of fogs complete. You can then remove your ambers and install these fogs into your OEM brackets. After that you can resell your amber fogs for $150 easily. Costing you are a total of $129 for these fogs in the end. That's a damn bargain.
Amber fogs with brackets are worth something, amber fogs without brackets are junk, I have 4-5 of them sitting on my shelf.
This is a good find.
These appear to be from the same company that has been selling the clear or smoked turn signals for our cars. They have a listing that has the clear fogs and clear turn signals for $299 with free shipping.
This is why i love the forums, setting me straight on what is really the best value. This may not be a bad idea at all...
Anybody bought a set and tested for fit yet?
Has anyone thought about contacting the seller with a figure of us to do a group buy? I am sure we could get at least 25 to 30 people to say they want too, but maybe 15 to actually go with the group buy. What do y'all think?
I'm in for group buy!
I just ordered a set, we'll see when they come in. I did HIDs and LED in the corner bulb and my fogs a couple of weeks ago. I'm waiting for my HID kit for my high beams and I figure when I take the bumper off, I'll put these in at the same time. I also have 2 clear side marker lenses with the caddy emblem etched in, that I figure, I'll put on also. They were given to me when I bought the car. Has anyone used them before? What did you use inside the socket for a bulb and for a reflector so it looks nice when done? They are not diffused so I don't know if painting the inside reflective chrome is my best choice. Also with the clear fogs, is everyone just using an amber bulb like a 3157a or is an orange LED bright enough?
just to be clear - when you say 'fog lights', you mean the turn signals / DRL's, right? Because the lights underneath those are the actual fog lights. are they integrated into the same part?
Yes, those same assemblies that were highlighted at the beginning of this thread. $279 shipped. I should have them in a couple of days.
No offense but i dont like them at all. ITs a good find but they dont match the car or headlights at all. Look old school like youd see on a car from the early 90s.
