Folks who are working directly on the deal to close the acquisition between SoftBank and Sprint are saying that the priority is to ensure a timely merger between the two carriers, a process that is expected to take six to eight months. Sprint has already paid $900M to lease the spectrum needed for 2012 and 2013, and while the SoftBank merger does help Sprint's cash position on the balance sheet, insiders are saying that Clearwire is too expensive.
Hedge fund principal Robert Chapman of Chapman Capital LLC thinks that Sprint would be better off buying 700MHz spectrum in lieu of any action to take on Clearwire. From an investment standpoint, he is "short" on Clearwire, who for their part have been burning through cash and generating little more than an increasing amount of debt and negative margins in just about every measurable category.
In the meantime, one of the components of the merger will entail SoftBank setting up a new subsidiary that will invest, just prior to the close of the merger, more than $3 billion in additional capital by way of convertible bond and valued at $5.25 per share. That cash will be used to pay down debt and address other short term needs. Sprint has a $4 billion dollar debt payment due in 2013.
Other capital investment options under consideration, besides taking on the rest of Clearwire (of which Sprint already owns 48%), will be addressed in "whatever ways we think will maximize shareholder value" according to Sprint CEO Dan Hesse. Those options include the aforementioned purchase of 700MHz spectrum via upcoming auctions, or perhaps make an attempt at cutting in on the T-Mobile merger with MetroPCS.

1955 Fairlane Frame
I have a 1955 Ford Fairlane Town Sedan. I've stripped everything off of her and she's ready to come off of her frame. I would love to chop her top, shorten her rpms a bit with a 6 out of a 64 Falcon, and replace the frame with something less petite since she's probably going to want to shift a bit after her top's cropped. I was pondering where I could find an inseam to fit her 114.5? I was hoping for something off of a smaller truck maybe.
I appreciate your input.
why would you replace a larger engine ( think it would be 225 if I6, 312 if V8 ) with a 170 I6? you would have a dog. the stock frame can be worked wonders by adding modern suspension tecnology to it.
The reason why I want to put the 200 in is because it will save me a lot of money. I already have worked over the entire engine and put a lot of money into it. I would like to have it running again. I am not looking for power here- just something to cruise with.
I would love to keep the same frame but with room for more, she's a 4dr, I need a little more stability.
Are you shure the Falcon 6 is a 200? if it is a '64 Falcon origional motor it would be a 170. you can count the freeze plugs to be shure, 3 ( or 4, can't remember ) and it is a 200, but 2 or less and it is a 170 or smaller, even a 200 is awful small for a big car like that, you might regret using it because it is undersized for the vehicle, and wouldn't be very economical and underpowered. I don't think your gonna want to go with a diffrent frame, the stock frame would be fine if you improved it, get a new front clip ( I don't know what is out there that will fit the frame, maby a Impala front clip from a 1970's Impala or somthing, nova clip maby ) and a new rear suspension, you should be able to get away with the stock leafs tho, 4 link might do good, your better off reworking your stock frame than finding a new 1 and making it fit.
55 Ford fairlane
If it were me I would go to a 300 6 they are almost indestructable but that is me I am putting a 5.0 in my wagon
engine 'n' frame
I really appreciate the input. Thanks. I had the engine rebored to be 200. Her frame needs a lot of tlc if I were to use her's. But, knowing the consequence of chopping the top of a 4dr, I need to get a better frame. There's still a lot of rust on the bones and I would prefer to seek for something more secure. I was hoping that I might find a smaller to mid size truck.
I would love to use the original engine but there's a lot of work that will have to be spent on it. I was hoping that a newer frame, the chopped top and a smaller engine would promise better performance. Every penny counts, so to speak. I'm shedding the original Vent system which will lighten the beast a bit more and hoping that the trans. from the Falcon to be a bit lighter than the original.
In all reality, this tiny tug is going from a 2800 pound setup to 3000-3100. There really shouldn't be a huge problem with the smaller engine performing as well as I think it would be able to. Needless to say, I'm not going drag racing with this babe. She's all for, uh... show. lol
What'r your thoughts?
If the trans is automatic, and original to the Falcon it is probably the Fordomatic or as some will say ( and it has good reasoning ) the Fordocrapic, it is a 2spd and to get them to shift to 2nd, you have to let off the gas a little, then it will shift.
Trust me, you might want to rethink your plans on the entire build, especially if you have not chopped a top b4, tops like that are rarely choped because there colplicated chops, then that motor, might merely be adaquate for the car. the car as it sits is around 2 ton ( 4,000 pounds ), way more than the 2,800 you were estimating, that is lighter than the Falcon your getting the motor from, that is the avrage weight for a modern fwd 4cyl car. the motor that came in your car if 6cyl is a 223 I6, that made 120 horse, if it is a 8cyl it is a 272 V8 that made 162 horse. assuming that the bored out 170 is making what a stock 200 makes ( I doubt it, the bores arn't the only diffrences ) which is 125 horse, even then the motor makes less torque which is what moves the car, this is due to the 223's longer stroke. all in all with your bored 170, it will be pushing it weather it is adaquate or not. Oh and when you say " the chopped top and a smaller engine would promise better performance. " hows that work? The chop ain't gonna do a thing for performance other than lower the center of gravity making it handle shightly better, and a smaller motor will get better performance??? The saying always goes " No replacement for displacement " or simply, if ya want more power get a bigger engine ( and NOT a smaller 1 ). I'd go with a 302 from a junkyard, hook it to an AOD and you would have a cheap cruiser.
As for the bored 200, there is a project that will better suite it.
I know what you mean by crapomatic. The 64 Falcon was my very first car. I have to appologize, though, because I am under the impression that chopping the top means to lowwwwwer the roof. What I meant was to totally strip it off and get rid of it. I've always wanted a convertable, but have always had a large family- hense the 4dr sedan and falcon.
The reason why I am looking for a newer, more reliable frame is because the one that is under her right now is unsalvagable. I'm not positive, but I think by shedding the roof, and replacing the frame will lighten things up a bit.
On the issue of the 200, thank you for the input. I appreciate it a lot. I think that I will hold off on engine work for now. I just need to get the body off of the original frame and find something that is salvagable.
Caprice/Crown Vic?
What do you think? Would it work for me to shove a newer- say, 1992 Caprice or Crown Victoria Frame under her. They both have frames which are within 2" of the 115.5 that I need for a wheel base and a bit wider than what I already have.
contact http://www.rockymountainrelics.com or other well known classic car junk yard. get the frame if it is cheap enough, you will be better off with a stock frame than trying to modify the frame from a truck, especially a light truck, which an s10 frame would be the only option and wou would need a longbed frame for the correct length and even then, I think you might need to lengthen it., and has to be a 2wd frame cause all the stock s10 suspension, you can use. you will want to weld crossbraces to the frame to stop flex. fix your floor and mount the body to a frame of somesort, your new frame ( original or s10 ) then brace the body so when you cut the top off, it dosen't fall in 2 peices, the floor and rockers are all that holds them togther as convertibles.
Thanks for the link- I'll check them out. I was thinking about that issue also. For a project like this, what would you think would be best to do? An air ride or regular suspension?
I haven't ever seen anyone with a 4dr convertable before and I have high hopes that I might be able to help pave the way for some other people who might be interested in doing the same thing to their baby. Sorry about all the questions- as I read back through them, they seem kind of repetitive.
As for the caprice frame, I have seen people use them on variouse projects, it would fit under your car, you could buy the whole caprice/ impala from the 80's and get 1 with a 350 you would be set. do an air ride if you want to lower it way down, otherwise just use the stock stuff
should spend all that money on a better car to start with.....

Clinch Park: Clinch Park's prime location just off downtown's main drag makes it one of the area's busiest beaches. But with 1,500 feet of sandy shoreline, you won't have to jockey for real estate—even during peak season. Look for a top-tobottom reno of amenities and facilities this summer. Cross busy Grandview Parkway via the pedestrian tunnel on Cass Street. Bryant Park: If you've got the family in tow, the beach at Bryant Park is a top pick, with a playground, picnic tables, charcoal grills and shallow water for young swimmers. For the sun-cautious, Bryant's tall pines cast cool shade for book reading and watching the kids. Located at the base of Old Mission Peninsula where Garfield Avenue meets Peninsula Drive.
Long Lake Township Park: If
the beaches on Grand Traverse Bay are packed, this park west of town might give you a more secluded swim. Long Lake is one of the area's most lovely inland lakes, and because it's quicker to warm up than the bay, it's a good bet for early-
season swimming. Grab all the makings of a picnic lunch just across the street at Long Lake Grocery. Located 10 minutes west of TC on North Long Lake Road.

The public beach at the north end isn't huge, but neither are the crowds, and the little brook that empties into the lake will fascinate the kids for hours.

Hope you all had a good July 4th weekend! It has been a very hectic but productive last week and I have many juicy information from the recent industrial biotechnology conference I attended waiting to be posted. The blog will also post several video interviews from the conference as companies such as OPX Biotechnologies, Genomatica, Elevance Renewable Sciences, Glycos Bio and DNP Green talked about recent milestones.
Stay tune for those! For now, here are the past two week's news roundup (to make up the lack from last week):
PPG advances in solar
PPG Industries made major advances in solar mirror development for concentrated solar power (CSP) applications, including improvements in solar mirror reflectance performance of up to 1 percent after heat treatment; production of flat solar mirrors as large as approximately 89 x 126 inches on standard production equipment; and formulation of a lead-free encapsulant that prevents solar mirrors from degrading and losing reflectivity in accelerated testing.
Ford uses soy foam cushions
Ford's 2011 Ford Explorer which goes into production later this year will feature soy-based polyurethane foam in seat cushions and seatbacks.There are more than 2 million Ford Motor Company vehicles on the road today with bio foam content.
Braskem launches green plastic seal
In conjunction with the start-up of its sugarcane-based polyethylene plant in Brazil, Braskem is launching its "I'm Green" seal for the products made from the bioplastic. The objective of the seal is to create value and to identify all of its polymers produced from renewable raw materials.
Opportunities on sulfur dioxide rule
Cemtrex says the new sulfur dioxide rule by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will result in higher sales of their advanced sulfur dioxide analyzers in the coming months. The new rule sets the one-hour SO2 health standard at 75 parts per billion (ppb), down from the current standard of 140 ppb, a level designed to protect against short-term exposures ranging from five minutes to 24 hours. It is the first time that the standard has been tightened since the original limit was introduced back in 1971.
Solutia bags green building grant
Solutia's Performance Films segment bagged a $356,000 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grant from the U.S. Department of Energy. The awarded funds have been earmarked for the continued research, development and commercialization of high-performance, energy-efficient retrofit window film technology for residential and commercial buildings.
Carbon capture patent
CO2 Solution Inc. received a new US patent, 7,740,689 that provides for exclusivity in the field of using the enzyme, carbonic anhydrase, or an analog thereof, for the capture of carbon dioxide with amine solvents, including MDEA, or any combination or part thereof in any process and in any enzyme delivery configuration.
Sustainability group formed
Fourteen industry leaders have formed the Sustainability Innovators Working Group - aiming to define and develop state-of-the-art approaches for environmental management and corporate sustainability. Industry members include Dow Chemical, IBM, Boeing, CH2M Hill, Coca-Cola, Delhaize Group, Disney, Diversey, FedEx, Johnson & Johnson, Shaklee, Unilever, Walmart, and Xerox.
Greening Alberta oil sands
GE has partnered with the University of Alberta (UA) and Alberta Innovates Technology Futures (AITF) on a $4 million CO2 capture project supported by the Climate Change and Emissions Management Corporation. The team will use nanotechnology to reduce CO2 emissions associated with the extraction and upgrading process in oil sands, and treatment of produced water generated during the oil recovery.The technology is based on naturally occurring zeolites identified by UA.
European enzyme partnership
DEINOVE, a specialist in the application of deinococci bacteria to biofuels and green chemistry, has partnered with European research centre on industrial enzymes and bioprocesses, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. The partners will evaluate different Deinococcus candidate strains screened by DEINOVE for the DEINOL cellulosic ethanol production process.
And in ICIS News (requires subscription):
European recycled polyethylene stays buoyant amid rising green interest.
The biorefining industry has the potential to inject upwards of $230bn (€186bn) into the global economy by 2020 and create more than 800,000 jobs, with the US becoming the biggest benefactor, industry experts said
Algae biofuels and enzymatic conversion of biomass to sugar will continue to be uneconomical if they can't compete with crude oil at $60/bbl (€49/bbl), according to venture capitalist Vinod Khosla.

3 you need to read my posts homie it's the fact that I don't think it's unfair
4 read post 2
at the end of the day, talking inside the cage is all we want. this should of won SOTY, but i doubt many in mma circles have even seen it as it didn't take place in the octagon.
It really wasn't that spectacular enough to be nominated for SOTY in the world of MMA. UK definitely.
Maybe they could do top 5 failures to make weight and you could win that?
Enty I am gutted you beat Liam as I am a fan of his but your like a British version of Diaz so please never change your attitude. I mean yea sure you have to make weight that's a huge one but with your attitude the way it is you have more chance of getting the call then a lot of others because with you there will always be fireworks and you will always have fans so long as you stay true to yourself. You should be trying to get on the ultimate fighter they would love your attitude on there bro.

Aches. Pains. Stiff muscles. At the end of any given week – whether you've spent them doing physical labour or stationed behind a desk – your bodies have endured a lot. Massage therapy is a hands-on method of reducing the discomfort caused by occupational stresses, over-exercised muscles and chronic pain by manipulating soft tissue: muscles, tendons, ligaments, connective tissue and joints.
A therapeutic massage can improve quality of life by enhancing both your physical condition and your emotional well-being. It works to treat the ill, the injured and the stressed, but also acts as a preventative measure against all three maladies.
A massage can:
Different massage methods are used to treat different conditions, such as sports injuries, pregnancy, headaches and gastrointestinal disorders. See the About.com entry on popular types of massage to read about the many kinds of massage available, from relaxation to deep tissue.
Before your massage, expect a brief discussion about your lifestyle, general health and any specific symptoms you hope to have addressed by the session. On your first visit, you might want to arrive 10 minutes early to fill out any necessary paperwork.
Your massage therapist will leave the room while you undress (leaving your underwear on is okay) and lie face down on the massage table, with a sheet covering you. If you're bashful, don't worry – during the massage, only the part of your body being massaged will be uncovered at any time.
When the therapist returns, they'll adjust the table, face rest and room temperature to make you more comfortable. A light oil or lotion can be applied, and the massage will begin. Usually the back is massaged first, then the legs. Then you'll turn over and the massage will continue with your arms, legs, neck and abdomen.
After the massage, the massage therapist will leave and you can dress.
Most people feel calm and relaxed after a treatment. Occasionally, people experience mild dizziness upon standing or temporary aching for the rest of the day. Drinking 6-8 glasses of water will help the body flush out any materials and toxins released during the massage and reduce soreness. See Stay Hydrated, Stay Healthy (PDF) for more information.
It's also a good idea to avoid heavy meals before your appointment.
Massage therapy is for everyone. A massage is a great way to unwind, even if you aren't suffering an injury or a chronic condition. Infants, children and the elderly can see benefits from having their soft tissue massaged.
Of course, there are always exceptions. Massage therapy generally isn't recommended if:
If you have heart disease or are pregnant, consult with your doctor before seeking a massage. It's not advisable to massage areas where you have bruising, inflamed skin, unhealed wounds, tumours, recent fractures or abdominal hernia.
See Emotion, Psychology and Massage (PDF) for more information.
It's tempting to book your massage at a place convenient to your home or work. Before you do that, you should consider that there are many different types of massage, and not all locations offering massage are equally qualified to treat you.
To avoid disappointment, and to ensure that your massage is covered by ASEBP, call ahead and ask the massage therapist if they're a member in good standing with the Massage Therapist Association of Alberta (MTAA). Membership is a seal of approval from the MTAA that a therapist has met the following requirements:
When you know that a therapist provides a quality, MTAA-approved service, you'll want to determine if they can address your specific needs. Massage therapists may provide a broad service, addressing a variety of conditions, or they may specialize in treating certain conditions (cancer, fibromyalgia, Parkinson's) or a certain group (pregnant women, athletes, children) with massage therapy.
If you have questions or concerns about your visit, asking over the phone is the surest way to find out, before you go.
Good news! ASEBP's Extended Health Care is designed to complement the Alberta Health Care insurance plan, and provides some coverage for massage therapy:
No doctor referral is required for reimbursement but services must be provided by a massage therapist who is registered with the Massage Therapist Association of Alberta. Services provided by students of massage therapy are not covered.
More detailed information is available in our Extended Health Care Benefit Guide.

"Different Trains" rattle through historic Jerusalem site
By Ori Lewis
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - A disused Ottoman-era jail in Jerusalem has been taken over this month for performances of American composer Steve Reich's "Different Trains" multimedia work that recounts the ferrying of Jews to the Nazi death camps.
The antiquated building in Jerusalem's walled Old City was built by Palestine's Turkish Ottoman conquerors in the mid-19th century and later used by its British Mandate rulers, but the site has lain derelict for decades.
The show, part of Jerusalem's Season of Culture, was brought to the city by Stockholm's Jewish Theater that first staged it under the direction of Pia Forsgren in the Swedish capital in October 2008.
Sweden's Fleshquartet played electronic instruments in the cavernous hall to perform Reich's work that debuted in 1988 and won a Grammy Award in 1990 for Best Contemporary Classical Composition.
They added their own improvised sounds in a work they call "Tears Apart" on colorfully lit bulbous glass vessels in a darkened hall draped in black and with video footage of trains projected onto the walls.
To watch a clip of the Fleshquartet's performance of the work click here: http:/vimeo.com/24105329
"The beautiful glass shapes could be souls or bodies. Beauty here is a way of making communication possible, of allowing us to take in the unspeakable, and of giving us strength," Forsgren said.
Through sound and light, Reich's work recounts his experiences and thoughts when he travelled on trains in the United States in the 1940s while at the same time other trains in Europe were taking Nazi Holocaust victims to the death camps. Continued...

What to look for in a good roofing job...
A couple of years ago I installed a new furnace/AC and spent several weeks reading and asking questions on the HVAC section of this forum. I got great advice and it led to a successful install.
Much like on that board, most of those giving advice on this board tell you to hire a good contractor - the shingle brand is a distant second to a quality install.
Unlike my HVAC project where I did much of the work myself, I do not like heights and have no interest in a DIY roof project. In general, I do not trust contractor reviews as a means to finding a good contractor. Most people rate their contractor on their timeliness, cleanliness, politeness and price - they have no idea whether their roof was actually properly installed. All they know when they write the review or recommend the contractor is that the roof has "worked" for a few weeks, months or even a year after the install. The real proof is 10- or 15-years down the road, which is not when most reviews are written or endorsements given.
Therefore, I am looking for a list of elements that define a quality installation that can be specified in the contract and confirmed by a layman as the working is being done. My project is about 30-squares, no valleys, and a few dormers with step flashing.
Thanks for any comments you may have.
P.S. I have read the sticky regarding hiring a contractor. It is all good advice that I plan to use, but I am still looking for install specifics.
That's a hard one.
Thing's I be looking for is someone not subbing out the job.
Seeing in there quote something more like replacing all flashing, not replace as needed.
Adding drip cap if there is none.
There insisting on removing all old shingles and tar paper, replacing any rotted sheathing or going over old 1 X's with 1/2 sheathing if that's what you have now.
My background is purely in metal roofing, but some of my most informed HO'ers did lots of home work. They would go to the manufacturers site and DL the installation manual and compare what the see there to what we are doing. They would know the accessory metal names ( i am refering to product specific metals that are not used any where else in the industry) and its particular function in the roof system.
To spell out each installation detail would take pages, purhaps the contract should include some wording like "Installation will conform to the manufacturers installation details as set forth in document name". Have a copy on hand for reference. The only way your going to know if you got a good installation is to look at all the details yourself. If it were me i would personally inspect the each step of the process or at least spot check each step. I would inspect the underlayment and any roof penatrations (pipes, dormers, fans, solar tubes, chimneys ect) and do my best to actually watch the installation of some of these details. I would not put a chair in the front lawn and sit there binoculars ( yes i had a HO do that) but, i would be on the roof looking over your shoulder from time to time.
I hate those HO'ers, but really thats the only way your gonna know its correct. I am that HO btw, i would be monitoring the installtion each step of the way.
The reality is you probably dont have the time to watch them. It would be more realistic to spot check thier work during the installation and question anything you feel is not conforming to the spec book.
Take a pic of your roof. FRont and back. Then post. Will know what to say then.
1. Ice and water first 3 feet. My roof i had them run first 6 feet.
2. 30lbs felt or Synthetic underlayement.
3. All new boots. Example plumbing,electrical.
4. New step flashing on dorms.
5. Install new vents. I like metal louver sloped on front.
6. Great shingle like landmark or Timberline.
7. New apron.
I don't think i missing anything .But i can't see your roof.
Ps. Replace sheathing as needed. Either osb which would be 25-35 installed or 1/2 cdx which would be around 50 installed. The question is how much do guys in your area charge for a new 30 year roof. I don't know. I will guess at $300 a square. The flashing around those dorms are going to add to the bill.
2 Attachment(s)
Here are two pictures (they are not too great, because of low light).
Main roof 9:12. Dormers 6:12. Cut ins below dormers 6:12.
Picture one: west exposure, one long dormer, one short dormer; long dormer has 4' of cut in roof at 6:12
Picture two: east exposure, one short dormer with longer, deeper cut it.
Only one plumbing vent and one water heater vent. Currently has roll ridge vent and would like to keep that type of vent.
This is a 23-year old roof that, lucky for me, now needs hail damage repair. Currently 3-tab, will be likely be getting GAF Timberline. Roof was hand framed (not trusses), 2x8, 16 OC with OSB.
Thanks to everyone that responded.
Read post #10 in this thread.
Edited to add; Oops, just realized that was the sticky.
Also, this thread might help ya.
Ok this is not an easy roof. You have a lot going on. Flashing all over the place. Example chimney, first pic right and left on lower roof. 1st pic way over on right new flashing. I see no vents on back of roof. Unless there is a ridge vent i don't see. I would slap by pic 8 metal louver front slops on back of ridge. I would also run ice and water just to be safe on front pic right and left of lower roof. Also way to the right on the little section of roof. Also flashing and ice and water on front dorm. You have a lot going on which is going to jack up the bill. Good roofer. Start with certainteeds website. See if they have a certified contractor in your area. Get a bid. This is not going to be cheap. You need an experience roofer. A hack you could have leaks all over the place. Back of roof the little shed dormer. Definitely needs to be all hooked up flashing ice and water. Guessing 10-12K
Couple things that you can also look at: how clean are the cuts in the valleys and at the roof edges, how far are seams staggered from row to row, how many nails are used and at what location.... Some of these things you can look at previous jobs, although another HO probably won't want you lifting their shingles up to see where it was nailed.
The product that a guy suggests off the bat can be a tip off as well, as leading with a cheap shingle can indicate that this is a "price point" company, meaning that they could potentially cut corners in other areas as well.
I really want to thank everyone for their responses. This is an insurance replacement, so cost, so to speak, is no object.
I have started by asking questions of the contractors (I'm playing dumb) regarding how they handle new flashing, ice guard, etc. Their answers tend to reveal their knowledge. Once I select a contractor, I will be sure their is language in the contract regarding items they have told me they will be doing to insure a good job.
Then, as a the project unfolds, I will be monitoring the work to see that it complies with the contract language.
Anyone know how likely it is that the local building inspector will be require the contractor to do a good job. Or, is it more likely that he will only be looking for a satisfactory job?
Thanks again.
All an inspector is going to be looking for is meeting minimum code. He's not going to be acting as your agent so to speak.
You say you want to keep that rolled ridge vent, not sure why.
All my local shingle suppliers and even my local box stores have stopped selling it because of all the complaints. It just does not give enough venting.
Ones like these work far better.

Every so often one encounters a public figure in another nation that you so wish could be running for public office in the United States of America. So, let me introduce you to Roger Helmer who currently is running for Parliament in the United Kingdom in a special by-election held in Newark. Let me make clear that Roger never wants to walk the streets of Newark, New Jersey, given his rather unusual ideas on life and people. Roger is a member of the United Kingdom Independence Party. This band of merry folk make our Tea Party come across as liberal communists. So, here are some views about life and people from Roger:
1. To dislike gays and lesbians is akin to disliking a particular tea.
2. Gays are "abnormal" and "undesirable" company.
3. A high percent of so-called date rape consists of a woman getting undressed and then changing her mind. This type of "rape" is not like rape by a stranger and should not be punished severely.
4. Dumb seal cubs deserve to be killed.
Gee, how do I get to vote for this man?

That's the common wisdom around coaching circles.-- da Coach
But then comes word that NU Coach Randy Walker violated that basic rule by laying out all of the possible bowl scenerios to the team last Sunday.
The common wisdom is that you're not supposed to bring up anything that doesn't specifically lead to a victory the next Saturday, and quite frankly if the Cats don't beat Illinois Saturday, then Hawaii the next weekend, they're eating the final team dinner on December 5th and watching the bowls at home.
But winning both games and gaining bowl eligibility is probably going to come down to the 12 Seniors who will be playing their final game at Ryan Field Saturday. and those guys want 3 more games, not 2.
Forget the "common wisdom." That's the right attitude...
- "We have to win two games," said CB Marvin Ward. "And we're going to give it all we've got."
- Noah Herron: "We've got two games left. That's the way it is. There's no other alternative for us.
- Noah again: "If we want to play postseason ball, we have to get two."

If you don't like it, then quit! Simple solution to all your problems. I have a feeling you would be easily replaced. As a matter of fact, if you and I could trade jobs, without any discussion of money, but you you would be guaranteed to be happy with your job responsibilities, would you trade? Think about that slick!

Toyota has not cut t/m's pay. And, they did not lay off anyone during the economic downturn. No other auto maker can say that!

I sing praise after every pay check I have no debt now I'm buying gold twice a month after I get my check deposited!!! Yahoo been doing this for 4 years straight now!!! Send me the money!!!
#12 Nov 3, 2012
Omg- every single t/m at Toyota (other than the unionized tmc) took a hell of a pay cut (the last one just a couple weeks ago). Toyota completely shut down a plant (NUMMI) in the downturn and there used to be 7000 full time workers making top pay at tmmk
#13 Nov 3, 2012
OMG-Toyota has NOT took a pay cut. They NEVER missed a paycheck. When they built ZERO cars for MONTHS, they NEVER missed a paycheck. The production team member never had their hourly wage lowered. Bonuses were lower but what do you expect? If you rely on bonuses as guaranteed income, then you are an idiot! If it was guaranteed, it would be figured in to your base wage. You pro people make me sick.
#14 Nov 3, 2012
Lmfao. So when called out on your bs lies of never taking a pay cut you conveniently switch wording to "hourly wage, bonus, etc"! When I make 70k ten yrs ago and it drops a couple grand ever year until I'm making 62k ten yrs later...I TOOK A PAY CUT. When they give me a .11 cent raise and raise my insurance .13 cents, I take a pay cut! When a prod t /m starts out now $6/hr less than they did ten yrs ago, the hourly rate has been lowered! Are u really that stupid?
No, nothing or no job is GAURANTEED in life. But if you try an take advantage of a man with deceit and promises that you back out of...be prepared for the man to repay you with the same respect
#15 Nov 3, 2012
Ughhh. Tmc (union) never had any bonus cuts during the same time period? We make all the $$ and they get all the bonus and you ask what do we expect?
#16 Nov 3, 2012
Your hourly wage or base wage isn't GAURANTEED income either. So if this was taken you would just say "it wasn't GAURANTEED ? Now whom is the idiot?
#18 Nov 3, 2012
Kentucky lost a football game today. I have watched them play before. Don't forget to set your clocks back
#19 Nov 4, 2012
First of all, you appear to be with your repeated incorrect spelling of "Guaranteed". Hilarious. Second, play games all you want. You cannot show me a paycheck where your hourly wage decreased. Your pay probably dropped from 70 to whatever you said due to fluctuations in bonus and overtime. Your the idiot for counting on that money to begin with you greedy a$$! Look, if you hate the place, please quit. That is a simple solution to ease your frustration. Go work somewhere where you will always know that you'll make minimum wage. You'll know your pay then! I wish Toyota would shut down and leave so that people like you would finally open your eyes. You make me sick.
United States
#20 Nov 4, 2012
. Well I still say Toyota keep sending me the money $$$$$$$$$$ yeah baby!!! I've got the balls to take care of myself have a wife who doesn't work a full time job because she wants to work a full time job at home. We chose to get out if debt. Yes my wages from Toyota have gone down but my yearly income is way up twice what Toyota pays me. So people enjoy what your making now get out of debt save and invest like your pay is ending tomorrow and you will be making hand over fist in five years or less if you remain debt free.
#21 Nov 4, 2012
You're really too stupid to even carry on a conversation! play whack-a-mole with wording all you wish... If you make 10k less and pay more for your insurance than u did last year.....U TOOK A PAY CUT!
#22 Nov 4, 2012
The simple solution is YOU quit and go find a job making less money since you are the only one smart enough to do so! Let the ones that fought for those wages you are making (union members) continue to fight for fair wages so ignorant ass people like yourself can continue to hang off our nut sacks

Right, I'm new to this brewing malarky but have decided to throw myself in at the deep end by going AG...
As I'm the only ale drinker in the my flat (until I convert my other half) I have decided to stick to 2 gallon brews as I'm not convinced I'd get through 40 pints a week!
I have most of my equipment sitting here, but I'm having trouble with the mash tun and hop strainer.
I did initially plan to create DaaBs false bottom for the mash tun (2 gallon FV covered in blankets etc) and was going to also use this for the hop strainer in my boiler (3 gallon FV with kettle element) however I figured that there are 2 potential problems with this:
- The plate may soften/melt
- The plate may be lifted off the bottom during the boil (due to the currents)
In light of this, what is the easiest kind of hop strainer to make and could it also double up as the manifold in my mash tun? I have seen the copper pipes with holes drilled all over them, but I've read reports of people using mesh which sounds a lot simpler but I can't picture how it would fit. The hops I have are vacuum packed (so presumably whole not pellet).

MCV75 2004 Re Union
These are shots of the Re Union Dinner held at Kelab Shah Alam on the 6th March 2004. 60 turned up and thats 55% of the unadulterated original 109 MCV75 ( adopting Hamdan Mabok's gauge line - those who sit for the MCE in 1975 at the Malay College! ).
Preceeding the dinner, a game of golf was held at Kinrara Golf Club in the morning, courtesy of Mae Botok. Later in the afternoon, the Re Union of 2005 was brainstormed. An organising commitee has since been formed. Salim retained his COO post.
Waistlines, hairlines, wrinkle lines....etc, certainly have made significant progress 29 years since. Enjoy the pictures. Above all, we were back as one like we were............ and there was much fun, fun and fun....

Manufacturing strengthened for a third consecutive month in February, buoying hopes that the economy is rebalancing.
Official statistics showed output grew by 1%, up from 0.3% in January and 0.4% last December. Output was 3.8% up on the same month a year earlier and is at its highest level in two years.
"The latest industrial production figures provide reassurance that the economic recovery has remained strong and broad-based," said Samuel Tombs of Capital Economics.
The wider index of industrial production, which includes the energy sector, was up 0.9% in February, having flat-lined the previous month after bad weather hampered North Sea oil and gas output. Last month's figures were considerably stronger than analysts had expected and helped to send sterling up half a cent against the dollar in morning trading to $1.67.
The encouraging news came as the International Monetary Fund today gave Britain the biggest growth upgrade of any advanced economy over the next two years in its latest round of forecasts. The IMF estimated the UK would grow by 2.9% in 2014, up from its 2.5% estimate in January. Next year it has pencilled in a 2.5% lift in GDP, up from its previous estimate of 2.2%.
The Office for National Statistics said the largest contribution to manufacturing growth in February came from pharmaceuticals, transport equipment, food and beverages. Seven out of 13 sectors showed growth. A British Chambers of Commerce survey also today showed manufacturers' balances, including investment plans, hit new highs in the first quarter.
"All indicators are lining up for a strong first-quarter growth rate, highlighting that industry remains a vital cog in the UK's continuing recovery," said Lee Hopley of the manufacturers' organisation, EEF.
However, manufacturing still languishes 8.2% below its pre-crisis peak in 2008, the ONS said. In 2013, manufacturing, which accounts for about 15% of the economy, was a drag on growth, knocking 0.1 of a percentage point off GDP. The dominant contribution to the 1.7% expansion of GDP came from the services sector. In his 2011 Budget, Chancellor George Osborne said he wanted to see Britain "carried aloft by a march of the makers".Reuse content

Retail conglomerate Westfield has lashed out at a recent report that it was staging a rival event to Australian Fashion Week, labelling it as misleading and false. In fact, according to Westfield and Fashion Week organisers the opposite is true. Westfield is underwriting four parades as part of Fashion Week for designers who have signed up for its new Bondi Junction super-store. The designers are Wayne Cooper, who will also show youthline Wayne, Zimmermann and Marcs.
The shows will be held in a wharf on Hickson Road in The Rocks - to be renamed Westfield Wharf for the week - under the talented eye of creative director Tony Assness, who was responsible for Terry Biviano's theatrical extravaganza last year. Biviano and Kerry Grima are also expected to show at the customised wharf, along with newcomer Gabriel Scarvelli. As for the $1 million sponsorship figure which was reported, our sources say it was well wide of the mark. Westfield is not spending a quarter of that.
More on Fashion Week. Doing his best William Bligh impersonation, event captain Simon Lock sailed into a theatrical press conference aboard the Bounty at West Circular Quay last week to announce this year's "interim schedule". It seems the event's new location has injected renewed vigour into Fashion Week with Lock touting the biggest parade schedule in the event's history. There will be 38 parades showcasing 63 designers. Also, he expects 25 per cent more international buyers and media to attend next month than last year. Lock will release a confirmed schedule on Friday.
Ahh, the old-school chic of French sports brand Lacoste. (Cast your mind back to Tom Selleck in Magnum P.I. wearing an apricot pink tennis shirt, collar up, Ray Ban Aviators on ...) It may have been huge in the 1980s but the brand was actually launched by French tennis player Rene Lacoste in the '30s. The crocodile logo is a reference to the nickname bestowed on him by the press due to his tenacious style of play. Well, Lacoste Footwear is about to be launched in Australia. Fashion police loves these retro velcro sports shoes (above). Check the soles. Stockists 9698 6555.
International Australian-themed fashion stores are popping up all over the place. There's Coco Ribbon in London, co-owned by Aussie gal Alison Hempel, which sells labels such as Terry Biviano, Zimmermann and Leona Edmiston. In New York's West Village, the Liz Charles Boutique showcases Aussie labels including Easton Pearson, Wayne Cooper, Bettina Liano, Mimco and Third Millennium. Now Antipodium in London's Shoreditch makes it a triumvirate. Australian expat Ashe Peacock is coming to Australian Fashion Week to stock up her new store, due to open in September.
Ian Nessick's retail radar is as finely honed as a scud missle so when the cargo phenomenon took a stranglehold on fashion, it's no surprise that he took to the trend with guns blazing (sorry). Nessick launched the YPV Surplus Vintage Military store last week and the calibre (oops, again) of the clothes is quite extraordinary - it's all original gear from the Swiss, East German, American, British and, of course, Australian armed forces. Because of current events, one can't help feeling a little uneasy considering hand-made World War I ammunition bags are being sold as clutch purses. But if you don't find this unsettling, why buy a Karen Walker faux army jacket when you can have an original World War II Swiss red camo jacket for less than a quarter of the price? There's cargos galore, including sought-after East German teardrop print, Australian Navy pea coats and military knits. In response to claims that the concept might be dubious considering the timing, Nessick retorts: "Almost every designer referenced military and cargo looks at the recent shows. Initially I thought it was odd but fashion is a reflection of history and unfortunately war is what's happening in our lives at the moment." 244 Oxford Street, Paddington, 9380 9522.
English accessory designer Emma Hope has a soft spot for Australia and it's not only because she sells her whimsical shoes through David Jones. Hope is an avid surfer and chronicles a recent trip to Byron Bay, Victoria's Great Ocean Road and Bondi Beach in the April issue of UK Vogue. Cool. Speaking of British fashion icons, soccer stylemeister David Beckham, in consultation with team manager Sven-Goran Eriksson, has reportedly chosen Giorgio Armani to dress the England soccer squad. It's a big call - Armani's the first non-English designer to dress the team, following Sir Paul Smith and, more recently, Burton. They'll step out in the new kit in Durban next month when they play South Africa in a friendly. And Armani is not charging a cent.
Nicole Kidman is being officially honoured for her impeccable style. The actress will receive what online news service www.vogue.co.uk describes as "the equivalent of a style Oscar" when she is anointed as a fashion icon at the Council of Fashion Designers of America's annual awards ceremony in June.

Learning about weather delays, closings
December 9th, 2011
In the event of snowy or icy weather this winter, Wake Forest may announce a delay in opening the University or a closing for classes and offices.
The University will announce a delay or closing through a variety of communication methods, generally starting before or by 6 a.m. on the morning of a winter weather event.
This year, for the first time, the University will use the new Wake Alert web site for delay and closing announcements at wakealert.wfu.edu. An alert headline will appear at the top of the University home page, linking to the Wake Alert web site for more details.
As in past years, the University will:
- E-mail a message to faculty, staff and students.
- Send a voice mail message to faculty and staff's office phones.
- Place a voice message on the weather and emergency line at 758-5935.
- Provide information to radio stations WFDD-FM and WSJS-AM.
- Provide information to TV stations WXII, WGHP, WFMY and News 14 Carolina (24-hour news channel).

If you are a remote control car enthusiast, it's likely you are always on the lookout for new cars to add to your collection. While there are obviously many different kinds of remote control cars to collect and invest in, petrol remote control cars are often a popular choice for the remote control car enthusiast.
Petrol RC Cars
Petrol RC cars can be a great investment, with some models growing in value over the years. However, to choose the right petrol remote control car means knowing what to look for when buying. With an awesome range of petrol RC cars, eBay provides the perfect place to search, compare and buy new and used models. These models can be up to one metre in length, offering fast driving speeds utilising pull-starter engines and in-built petrol tanks. Look for options that offer four-wheel-drive and fully adjustable suspension, or take a look at scale models of cars such as the Nissan GTR, Holden Camaro or Ford Falcon. There are also models that feature the look of Monster Trucks, 4x4 desert cars and Formula One cars, while others are built specifically for racing.
Children's Cars
Petrol RC cars aren't just for collectors, they can be a great gift for kids too. Driving around in a car just like mum or dad, kids can enjoy a lifelike driving experience using foot pedals and a steering wheel, driving at speeds of up to 6 km/h. These model cars can come with a variety of neat accessories, such as LED headlights and working indicators, as well as radios and speakers that play music via USB flash drive. Choose to let older kids drive themselves, or opt for the remote control option for younger kids who still need a bit more adult guidance.
Time to buy? Whether you're looking for petrol remote control cars as a collector, or you want to buy your child the perfect present for their birthday or Christmas, check out the range of petrol RC cars on eBay. With cars, parts and accessories, eBay is the place to find everything from RC model vehicle parts and accessories to RC model vehicle switches, connectors and wires!

General Question
Any suggestions what exercises will help to get get fit?
Asked by antimatter (4392) May 11th, 2014
I am forty and very unfit. Even got a little bit flabby around my upper body. I don't have time to visit the gym so if there's a few exercises I can do in about thirty minutes a day than that will help. Any good suggestions?

For many, Mediterranean cuisine conjures up romantic images with exotic, foreign flavors. However, it's a misconception that ingredients in delicious Mediterranean recipes are difficult to fine and expensive. In fact, you may already have many items in your pantry. If not, a quick trip to the local store provide everything you need to "go Mediterranean."
Here are some tips on stocking your own Mediterranean pantry:
