No pics but at the SHOT show the wood on the display ones looked great.
Any you guys have a X7 in a wood stock. I saw on marlins website where they were putting the walnut to em. Any info or pictures about this? Thanks .Dirty-.30
No pics but at the SHOT show the wood on the display ones looked great.
Which calibers did you see the wood stocks on?Originally Posted by slowhandscotty
I hope the addition of the wood don't kick it up much, price wise. No doubt the walnut costs an arm and leg more than the synthetic to use. I would even like to see the bullseye put on em.
marlin's website listed only 270 and 30-06 with wood stocks both walnut and brown laminate available-i have yet to see pictures or prices-whsk
I heard the wood stocks are running for like...400 something.
Single action revolvers, Marlin and Winchester leverguns, and Mosin Nagants.
I saw them on the 30-06 and I can't recall if they were showing it on any other caliber. SorryOriginally Posted by bigjeepman
I think I might go in a few days and feel of a xl7 in 30.06, what I really wanted was a .223 if the price on a wood stock is over $100 I will pass though synthetic 30.06 maybe.
I held a couple XL7's today both 30.06 one in walnut and one in synthetic, price was $459 and $309. I was more impressed with em as ever, nothin like I thought, I had been thinking they were like a Model 7 Remington but was suprised at the full size, I want one now even more, but won't pay that for the walnut.
Did the wood stocked XL7 still have a plastic trigger guard? Truthfully it doesn't matter a lot but if I'm going to spend more for a nicer stock, would be nice to have a metal trigger guard as well.Originally Posted by .DIRTY-.THIRTY

About Old Jaffa Hostel
Welcome to Old Jaffa Hostel & Guest House -The place to be in Tel Aviv!
Through the centuries Jaffa was the gate to anyone who wanted to visit the Holy Land. All the hotels that once accommodated pilgrims are long closed and the old port serves nowadays only fishermen. Yet, Jaffa is still a great place to start your trip to Israel, and Old Jaffa Hostel & Guest House is an ideal travelling base. We are located in an old charming building close enough to anything you want in Tel Aviv.
We think that it is the nicest hostel in Tel Aviv because we have put our heart and soul into it . We are not the only ones to think so; read what some of the guidebooks (we are recommended in every single book for Israel) write about us:
"LET'S GO" guide gave us the "particularly great" mark for being:"...a wonderful escape from the hostels that cover Tel Aviv beaches. It really manages to feel like Israel."
LONELY PLANET: "a pleasant israeli couple has converted a beautiful old Turkish house into the lovely Old Jaffa Hostel."
THE ROUGH GUIDE:" ...excellent, well run..."
REISE-KNOWS-HOW:" very clean, friendly and helpful, very good atmosphere..."
The British "Independent" had an article on Tel Aviv on 31.Oct.1999 and recommended 4 options for accommodation: The Hilton, two three star Hotels and the Old Jaffa Hostel.
* The hostel is in an old, beautifully renovated building with high ceilings and colorful floor tiles, balconies hanging over the market and a roof garden overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
* Our hostel building is a privately owned clean and safe facility that meets all modern standards while preserving the unique character of an old guest house.
* Great location (see location)
* Beautiful private rooms for prices that you, the budget tourist to Israel, can afford (see prices).
* Lots of space to be left alone or socialize; a spacious lobby, a roof terrace and TV-room.
* Clean, well lit and ventilated showers and toilets.
* Laundry (hand or machine), kitchen, storage, internet-station.
Old Jaffa Hostel is a quiet, relaxed place (sorry, no loud MTV music, no pool table, no all night bar) for young people of all ages!
If you have a true travelers spirit Old Jaffa Hostel & Guest House is your natural choice!
The location - excellent! (Unless you enjoy the noisy, sleazy downtown with police sirens and massage parlors).
Around the hostel there is a big choice of eating places who cater mainly to the locals and therefore are authentic and significantly cheaper than the ones in Tel-Aviv. Generally speaking - you are less likely to fall into a tourist trap in Jaffa and if you want to do some shopping - cloths, souvenirs etc. The 'Flea Market' is the cheapest place to do so.
Jaffa is also one of the few places in Israel where you can see Jews and Arabs living together in harmony.

REMINDER 'Super String Saturday' brings together gifted student musicians with pro mentors
Free public performance will be followed by instrument technique clinics and more
information from Seattle Youth Symphony Orchestra
On Saturday January 25 from 10 a.m.- 1 p.m. a free community event, Southwest Seattle Super String Saturday at Chief Sealth International High School, kicks off with an inspiring performance by one of America's premier youth orchestras, the Seattle Youth Symphony. Following the performance, young violin, viola, cello and bass players from Southwest Seattle schools fill Chief Sealth High School with the sound of their hard work and dedication. This event celebrates the elementary and middle school string players who are receiving coaching by professional musicians hired by the Seattle Youth Symphony Orchestras.
City Councilmember Tom Rasmussen and King County Councilmember Joe McDermott will be on hand to welcome the Southwest Seattle musicians and their families to the event.
The free public performance by Seattle Youth Symphony Orchestra features Serge Prokofiev's powerful ballet score for Romeo and Juliet – a work that has become one of the most revered orchestral scores composed for dance. The mini-concert continues with a Carl Maria von Weber's Overture to the Der Freischutz, a Romantic era opera inspired by German folk music.
After the public concert, violin, viola, cello and bass students from Southwest elementary schools (Concord, Roxhill, Sanislo, Arbor Heights, West Seattle and Highland Park) and Denny International Middle School participate in an array of activities including instrument technique clinics led by top-level Youth Symphony musicians and SYSO coaches and learning how to play in a chamber music ensemble. Then the excitement builds as the string students join the Youth Symphony musicians on stage and are mentored by their high school-aged musical counterparts. All the musicians play "side-by-side" in this large orchestral setting, with the younger students inspired by the level of performance demonstrated by their older peers. This is an event for the entire family and includes an "instrument petting zoo" organized by the West Seattle Community
Orchestras introducing younger children to string instruments, and SYSO coaches and school music teachers on hand to discuss how parents can support their child's musical learning. Refreshments and resources are also available.
This event showcases Seattle Youth Symphony Orchestras' Southwest Seattle String Project, an initiative that provides professional musician "coaches" to work alongside public school music teachers and lead small group and individualized instruction. This service is provided by SYSO at no cost to the schools or the families because SYSO is committed to enabling equitable access to arts education, especially in areas which historically have had lower participation rates in instrumental music due to economic barriers.
The program goes beyond supporting school-day instruction to offer free before school lessons each week at every Southwest Seattle elementary school as well as additional coaching through a partnership West Seattle
Community Orchestras. The outcomes are that SYSO coaching triples the lesson time for students and has led to a 300% increase in orchestra enrollment at Denny International Middle School in just the last four years.
The music heard at Southwest Seattle Super String Saturday is evidence that this partnership has increased students' levels of musicianship and helps students develop other important life skills. As one Southwest Seattle principal has reported, "When I see [instrumental performances, I see a sense of pride, demonstration of skills, value of practice, sequencing, growth over time, and taking risks. During performances you can get a sense of that cumulative impact." SYSO invites the community to share in this sense of pride for Southwest Seattle string musicians.
SYSO provides this program free to the Southwest Seattle public schools because of generous support from national and local funders. In fact, last month Seattle Youth Symphony Orchestras was one of just twenty-three American orchestras selected by the League of American Orchestras to receive a 2013-14 Getty Education and Community Investment Grant specifically to fund SYSO's school programs. Additional significant support is provided by The Clowes Fund, Inc., Washington Women's Foundation, Washington State Arts Commission, National Endowment for the Arts, and Real Networks Foundation. Individual contributions are also an important
source of support. To learn more about how to donate to SYSO's school programs, contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Jose Fernandez Blog: The Start of 2011
By USF
Related Links
I begin the 2011 Jose Fernandez Blog with a somber note. Our athletics program lost a great man this past weekend in Lee Roy Selmon. Lee Roy was one of the nicest men I have met, and was an instrumental part of building the USF Athletic Department. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
On a lighter note, we started individual workouts and it is great to have all the players back after they have been working out all summer with Graham Anderson and Donna Jordan. Graham, Donna and their staffs did a great job with the girls getting them ready for the season, and now they are working on preparing to handle the grind of the season.
This summer was a special one for us as a program.
We moved into our beautiful new practice facility, the Les and Pam Muma Practice facility. It is top notch. The ability to have a place where student-athletes can come in 24 hours a day and seven days a week is just amazing. There is a video room, a player lounge, locker room and last but not least all of our offices.
I also had to opportunity to welcome back a long-time friend in Cayll Smith as our video coordinator. Cayll previously worked with us as Director of Operations and we are so glad to have him back.
The first three weeks of workouts have been a test for the kids, but they have really showed their commitment, especially Caitlyn Rowe, Jasmine Wynne and Kaneisha Saunders who have each earned Practice Player of the Week Honors from our staff.
We are excited for the upcoming season which includes a difficult test of games, both in the Big East as well as our non-conference slate.
Be sure to check back in to keep up to date on everything we are doing.
Thanks and Go Bulls!

Future, the publisher of specialist magazines including Metal Hammer and CrossStitcher, has continued on its rapid turnaround path, swinging into profit and bucking a tough market for print media.
The group, which has been overhauled by Stevie Spring as chief executive, said yesterday it was starting to reap benefits from closing underperforming magazines, investing in new websites and selling off its French and Italian businesses.
The publisher has thrived on loyal audiences in niche markets such as computer gaming and snowboarding. New print deals, such as for official Sony and Nintendo magazines in the US, a surge in web advertising revenues and cost cuts helped generate pre-tax profits of £9.2m for the year to the end of September, after a loss of £36.7m a year earlier. That was its first reported pre-tax profit since 2004.
"We achieved more in the last 12 months than any of us could have hoped for," said Spring, who joined the company last year. Like most advertising-reliant businesses Future is cautious about the coming year, with Spring describing the economic backdrop as "bloody". She would not rule out more magazine closures.

Kai Ryssdal: Pet ownership, it seems, has survived the Great Recession intact. The American Pet Products Association released sales figures from 2010 last week: up more than 6 percent to $48 billion.
Not all that surprising, when you consider almost three-quarters of households own a pet. The country's second-largest pet supply retailer wants to be the first-largest, so it's trying to capture some more market share. By getting smaller.
Shannon Mullen reports.
Shannon Mullen: There's a new pet store in the suburb of Acton, Mass., near the local grocery store and a Starbucks. When you walk in, two things stand out right away. There are no animals for sale, and the shelves are full of mostly natural, high-end food brands. Next to the gourmet cookie case, there's a big chalkboard listing store events like pet adoptions and ice cream socials for dogs.
Michelle Harding: We're going to get to know you, your kids, your pets.
Michelle Harding oversees the store. She wants customers to feel like this place is part of their community.
Harding: I mean, it is the size of a Blockbuster video. It is very trendy, upbeat, your sales staff is in jeans and really cool T-shirts.
The new chain is called Unleashed by Petco. Yes, that Petco. In the past year, it's opened 28 of these boutique stores in California and the East Coast.
Jim Myers: Well, clearly we're trying to attract a different customer.
Petco CEO Jim Myers.
Myers: One of our big things we're looking at is, you know, how do we continue to expand the market share of Petco, and find a larger group of people that aren't currently being served in the way that they're looking for.
Now Petco is putting its much smaller concept stores closer to where people live, with signs that say "Unleashed" in big letters, and "by Petco" in much smaller print.
Susan Fournier: So they're growing by using their brand asset, but they're trying to get distance from their main brand.
Susan Fournier teaches marketing at Boston University's School of Management. She says for some consumers, bigger isn't better anymore, and Petco is tapping into that. Plus its market has a growing number of affluent pet owners.
Fournier: So they've seen that there's a new segment and people are willing to spend more money, they're less price sensitive, let's get them to buy more expensive things, let's create a decor that makes them feel a little more special.
That last one -- personal connection -- it's how independent pet stores separate themselves from corporate competitors. But Unleashed stores promise that now too, plus Petco's big enough to offer lower prices than the local guy.
So, is the local guy worried? Not Mike DiTullio. He owns a shop called Especially for Pets, just a few miles from the new Unleashed store in Acton.
Mike DiTullio: My customers will say to me, I would never go to a Petco.
Mullen: What's the reason?
DiTullio: Because they do not want to put the health and welfare of their pet in the hands of a large corporation.
DiTullio's been selling only natural pet foods for 23 years. He says he's noticed a slight dip in business since Unleashed arrived, but he thinks that could just be the bad economy.
DiTullio: This is not a sour grapes story for me, all right? You know, they're coming into my market with my concept, so I guess I'm doing something right.
Petco CEO Jim Myers thinks he's got it right, too. He says the Unleashed stores are doing well enough so far, that 18 months from now, there'll be twice as many of them.
In Acton, Mass., I'm Shannon Mullen for Marketplace.

CORRECTED-Petrobras still faces default risk despite release, fund says
(Corrects Jan. 28 story to say analyst Karina Freitas is concerned about Petrobras debt levels, not that she is concerned the debt levels may break a bond covenant, paragraphs 10-11)
By Jeb Blount
RIO DE JANEIRO Jan 28 (Reuters) - Brazilian state-run oil company Petrobras still runs the risk of being declared in default on billions of dollars of debt even after releasing its delayed third-quarter earnings before a self-imposed deadline, a New York-based hedge fund said on Wednesday.
The results, which failed to include an expected charge against earnings related to a corruption scandal, may even add to the number of bond covenants, or legal promises to investors, that have been broken by the company, a senior executive at Aurelius Capital Management said.
In particular, Petrobras' comment in "Note 2" of its unaudited third-quarter results saying that they do not fully meet the International Accounting Standards Board's (IASB) international reporting standards shows non-compliance, said Mark Brodsky, Aurelius' chairman.
The Petrobras note to its results says some of its results are in compliance with the IASB's IAS-34 rule but some, including those related to assets whose value may have been overvalued by corruption, are not.
"Despite its recent assurances, Petrobras remains in default on its New York-law bonds," Brodsky said in a statement sent to Reuters. "Those bonds require Petrobras to issue financial statements that comply with IASB rules, but Note 2 to the new financial statements admits that they do not."
Petrobras did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Aurelius' comments. Aurelius, an investment firm with a focus on distressed assets, asked investors in December to put Petrobras into default as "a precautionary step," according to a Dec. 29 letter.
If investors holding at least 25 percent of a Petrobras bond with this covenant agree with Aurelius, this could lead to a default declaration, raising the risk that Petrobras may have repay $54 billion of bonds governed by New York law before maturity. If one bond is declared in default, all bonds could follow. Continuación...

" Brand: Dove / Type: Hair Shampoo / Texture: Serum / What it does: Repairs, "
A few years back I had short hair and due to damaging it through heating, over styling and dying it continuously, a number of products were suggested to help restore the condition of my hair as I grew it out, it is now shoulder length [thought I'd let you know:)]
The products recommended by stylist in a salon can sometimes break the bank and DOVE is a great reasonably priced product with just the most amazing results. However, I find that they have yet to reach that amazing standards with hair care, but that's just a personal opinion and mainly because I have thick hair I think they've yet to crack that particular market.
Yet I will always persist because I love buying DOVE and hoped that this brand with the 'SERUM' complex I hoped this could undo the damage.
It firstly smelt just like a traditional DOVE product and the thick consistency of the cream was still there. I worked this into my scalp, I wasn't expecting it to lift the roots or remove product build-up in a major way, as stated in various other reviews I find that you need EUCALYPTUS based products for that.
This cleansed the hair, made it look shiny and soft as you would expected however the 'INTENSE damage therapy' sadly didn't work for me. Maybe the salon professionals were right! My hair just needed that TLC that DOVE couldn't provide on this occasion.
This seems to be a little more pricey at £4.99 but it depends on where you purchase, so its best to shop around. x
The reason I bought this shampoo was because I thought I was buying the Dove Intense Care Therapy conditioner. The two are identical in shape and colour, so it was an honest mistake. However, I do like Dove products and quickly made use of the shampoo.
The shampoo is available in a dark blue bottle containing 250ml of the product. The shampoo is dermatologically tested, pH neutral and imbued with an advanced repairing serum. The shampoo is relatively viscose, although it has a tendency to run out of your palm in the shower if you do not cup it adequately. The shampoo is white and has the same slightly powdery scent that other Dove products tend to have. I usually use a small palmful of it, and found this was more than sufficient to give a good lather and work my hair up into a lather 'cap'. I left the shampoo in my hair for a minute or two before washing it out. The shampoo will wash out completely providing you hold your hair under the shower head for long enough so that the water runs clear. This means that it does not leave your hair feeling tacky, which is a feature of some cheap shampoos I loathe.
The shampoo is designed for dry and damaged hair, and as I would describe my hair as 'normal' I was concerned it would over-moisturise my hair and leave it oily. However, the effect could not have been different: my hair felt very soft and thick, and the clean scent of the shampoo pervaded for many hours after my hair had dried. The ends of my hair, which occasionally become split, felt a little less coarse, and I enjoyed the fresh feeling the shampoo left on my hair and scalp.
Normally I do not spend more than £1 on shampoos, as I believe they are mostly the same. I bought this one when it was on offer for just such a price, but even at the full retail value of £2.69 I would consider purchasing Intense Care again, and that is not something I would say of many shampoo products I have used in the past. The conditioner in this range is also superb, and those who enjoy Dove products will love this shampoo.
I wash my hair everyday so try to use good shampoos that aren't expensive to keep my hair in good condition like the Dove range...
I bought this 'Intense Care Therapy' for a pound a couple of months back when the range was on offer on Wilkinson's because I liked what I read on the bottle and it seemed perfect for my hair which is in pretty bad condition from dying and blow-drying and straightening every day :(
This blue bottle (recycle please!) says the contents have a new formula that is an advanced serum to help 'dry & damaged hair' like mine so it was definitely worth trying!
250ml of quite runny white shampoo with a quite sickly chemical fragrance that I didn't like at all, which can be used up to a year after opening...
Made by Unilever this stuff is dermatologically tested and has a mild formula that is pH neutral so it is kind and gentle to the skin.
This shampoo is designed for frequent use and you just wash in and rinse out as normal (don't get it in your eyes as it stings, lol!).
The thing I noticed about this Dove product is it isn't very soapy, there weren't many suds but I put it down to being quite thin and runny liquid rather than a thick solution.
The back of the bottle write up says its definitely for dry rough hair with severe damaged like mine, and that : 'The Advanced repairing serum in the formulation contains millions of micro particles that help repair severe accumulated damage by penetrating into the fine lines and breaks no the hair surface'.
Dove also claim that it helps prevent split ends appearing but not so in my case.
I wasn't impressed with this variety from the brand; it was too runny and smelt awful plus it didn't do much for my hair unlike some of the other stuff I've tried of theirs.
Not good so I'm only giving it one star, they need to improve on this shampoo - quick!
I recently caved in and let my friend bleach my hair, big mistake, since then my hair has been in a shocking condition, it breaks, looks and feels brittle, lacks shine and on the whole just looks bad.
Since this has happened I've been trying all the usual fixes, beer, eggs, intensive conditioners, posh shampoos and to be honest I'd just given up in the end.
I only bought this purely by chance, it was on sale in Wilkinson's for 97p so bought it along with the conditioner. The shampoo lathered up lovely, there is something quite luxurious about the way it foams, almost creamy rather than bubbly and I really like this. I also found I didn't have to use much, I have very long thick hair and normally have to use a fair bit but a little went very far, so even when its full price it will be cost effective.
I don't normally notice much from a shampoo other than it cleaning but just from the first application I could feel a difference, it just felt smoother, the shaft of my hair was all freyed and felt very coarse but I instantly felt a change.
The smell is extremely pleasant, I catch myself pulling my hair forward to have a smell and my boyfriend keeps smelling my hair so he obviously approves. My hair dried also feels better, running my hands through it, whilst I can still feel some damage from the bleach, it is softer and less coarse and just gets better with every wash.
I will definitely be seeking out more products from this range. Oh and for the record, I have forgiven my friend.
Being pregnant has took its toll on different parts of my body my head being the main one. I have tried various shampoos to wash my hair and stop my scalp from itching.
I found this was the best shampoo to help my scalp and keep my hair clean and soft.
For the first few days of using this my scalp did still itch which was due to how dry it was from using the other products but after that it was wonderful. My scalp stopped iching and flaking and was no longer red so it had healed it in a way. My hair was still clean just by using it once I didn't need 2 washes on it and this would stay clean for two days so I wasn't having to wash my hair everyday like I used to. My hair was much easier to manage and didn't seem bitty or broken even when I was blowdrying it.
The ends of my hair that were bitty were replenished and looked like new which I hadn't had for a long time due to always dying it. My hair felt sliky and soft and was much easier to style due to using this shampoo.
I would recomend this range to anyone. They do different types of shampoos for different types of hair and it is very gentle for sensitve heads. I buy mine from boots because it is under a £1 there and can collect advantage points on it. The bottle isn't very big and with two of us using it in our house it tends to last just over a week, I don't find this bad value for money because we are in the shower or bath at least once a day to be honest, and with the hot weather we have had lately more than that.
It is a great product that looks after the scalp and the hair and washes brilliantly too.
Time for another review that falls into my addiction of beauty products, although this time it's more of a necessity than a beauty product - well, unless you're Robert Pattinson of course - "I don't really see the point in washing your hair. If you don't care if your hair's clean or not then why would you wash it? It's like, I don't clean my apartment 'cause I don't care. I have my apartment for sleeping in and I have my hair for just, you know, hanging out on my head. I don't care if it's clean or not."
How very interesting...and kinda gross. Anyway, for the people who DO clean their hair, this is for you!
I first came across Dove Intense Damage Therapy Shampoo with Repairing Serum (way to come up with the longest name in history, Dove!) when I was in my local Boots stocking up on my trusty Aussie shampoo and conditioner. It's beyond me why this caught my eye, and Aussie was my holy grail and I vowed to never cheat on it (maybe I like shampoo too much...), but I was drawn to this like a pre-teen to the Disney Channel. I decided to use this for a month before reviewing it as I feel that a month would be a decent period of time to test out the effects on my hair.
Diagnosis - dry, rough hair with accumulated damage.
Dove Solution - Intense Care Therapy Shampoo. It's formula with repairing serum nourishes dry hair and helps repair damaged hair surface. It reinforces hair fibre against further damage and helps prevent split ends. Leaves hair healthy and strong from root to tip.
The shampoo comes in a tall, navy blue, curved plastic bottle, slightly different from the one in the picture above. It has the Dove Therapy logo plastered across the front and then the shampoo name below. There is also a small label that says "new formula" on it, and a line near the bottom of the bottle that says this is for dry & damaged hair. Now, I in no way have dry or damaged hair, I have extremely healthy hair and do everything I can to keep it that way, so I figured I might as well give this a go.
On the back of the bottle is all of the usual information, directions, ingredients, company info yadda yadda yadda - does anyone even read the full bottle?
Whilst in the shower exactly one month ago, I opened up my new bottle of shampoo and squirted some into my hand. The scent really did fill the room, it was the same scent that most Dove products have, the very fresh, clean, pretty scent that we all know and love. The shampoo itself was thick, but not gloopy, it seemed very luxurious and was white in colour with a slight pearl shimmer to it. Very nice. I lathered it up into my wet hair and started singing away whilst I cleaned my whole head of hair. Eventually, it was time to rinse all of the soapy bubbles out of my hair - which was a very easy task. I continued with the Dove conditioner from the same range as this (which will no doubt be reviewed tonight or tomorrow) and carried on with my shower.
Fast forward an hour to find me with my hair dryer in my bedroom, jsut having finished blow drying my hair - it felt wonderful. It was shiny, sleek and healthy looking with a wonderful scent drifting off of it. If this was a peek into the future of my hair, then I would be extremely happy.
I am slightly OCD about my shampoo, some people use shampoo to clean their hair, and that's that. I use shampoo to clean, scent and keep my hair healthy, but did it do this?
Fast forward another 720 hours (that's 30 days) and you'll find my hair is in the best condition it has ever been, so to answer the previous question, yes, it did clean, scent and keep my hair healthy.
Dermatologically tested.
Mild formula - pH balanced.
For frequent use.
In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately.
I purchased my first 250ml bottle of this shampoo in Boots for just over £1.50 (the exact price escapes me), but you can now buy it in Asda for only £1, so I stocked up!!
- cleans hair 100%
- leaves a lovely scent
- helps repair dry and damaged hair
- leaves hair silky soft
- my brand new holy grail shampoo!!
- 100% recommended by me
Thanks for reading!
I have always trusted dove products, and most washes for my skin, including their cream hand wash, are usually from the dove range. I had however, never realised there was a shampoo created by dove.
Truth be told, I only noticed this shampoo because Tesco had an offer of 2 for £3, though once I realised it was Dove, I knew it was worth a go.
This dove intense care therapy shampoo, with repairing serum, for dry and damaged hair, comes in a blue bottle, holding 250ml. My hair tends to be oily/greasy by nature, but it does get damaged from my daily usage of my straighteners, so I felt that the added benefit of repairing serum in the shampoo, could only do my hair good.
In face, this shampoo claims to have 'advanced repairing serum.... (which) contains millions of micro particles that help repair severe accumulated damage by penetrating into the finest lines and breaks on the hair surface.' It also claims to prevent split ends from re-appearing.
When you first use the shampoo, I found you really had to squeeze the centre to push it out, but from then on the shampoo came out easily. The shampoo is white, and it doesn't take much to create a good lather in the hair. I also found that the shampoo washed out very easily, and I didn't feel that I had to keep washing to make sure my hair was clean.
After washing, I found that I could run the comb through my hair without it snagging, unlike some of the l'oreal shampoos.
So in terms of results, this Dove shampoo left my hair feeling smooth, shiny, and very soft to touch, not to mention very clean. It may be my imagination, but I do feel that the added serum in the shampoo is noticeable after drying my hair, since I feel that my hair doesn't look as damaged, but rather in great condition.
I would have no hesitation in buying this Dove shampoo again, and it has only added to my belief that dove is an extremely reliable brand.
I do love Dove products as a rule so when I spotted this new Dove shampoo (well it was new to me as I hadn't seen it before!) I simply had to try it out. What sold it to me was being told on the bottle it contains repairing serum. I use serum regularly in my styling routine and find it very beneficial to my dried out ends and frizzy mid section so my feeling on this is maybe this would really be beneficial to my hair as well as all that I usually do to tame it lol!
The Packaging....
As depicted on the review photograph on the top of this page (for flipping once!). The bottle is sort of long and dome shaped, dark but shiny blue with a flip top integrated head to the top of it concealing a small hole. On the front in white and silver writing I'm told it's Dove Intense Care Therapy Shampoo With Repairing Serum for Dry & Damaged Hair. The usual small silver Dove adorns the front too. On the back of the bottle (all in white writing this time) I'm told a bit about the product, a warning is given (don't get it in eyes and what to do if it does other than scream lol), ingredients are listed, size is stated (250ml), the recycle symbol is clearly shown, contact details for Unilver are give (the manufacturers of Dove products) and finally there is a bar-code on there. Nice, simple packaging that is sleek and simple to use!
A Bit About The Product According To The Back Of The Bottle....
Dry, rough hair with severe accumulated damage.
Dove Solution....
Intense Care Therapy Shampoo. The Advanced repairing serum in the formulation contains millions of micro particles to help repair severe accumulated damage by penetrating into the finest hairs and breaks on the hairs surface. Prevent split ends from re-appearing.
Dermatologically tested.
Mild formula - Neutral PH
For frequent use....
The Shampoo Itself....
To me this shampoo smells typically Dove. Slightly fruity with a rich creamy, moisturising smell to it, it's lovely. In it's appearance it's white, glossy and has a a slight oil content to it. In the fingers it feels very luxurious and isn't runny as hell or stiff it's just simply a nice consitency.
All you need is a 5p piece sized amount (and that's on my past shoulder length hair). It lathers up very quickly and richly and white and feels so smooth and velvet like during washing the hair. It rinses out simply and it's up to you whether you wish to repeat the above process or not (I always do).
I of course do use the matching conditioner to this but what is surprising with this particular shampoo is that if desired I don't HAVE to use a conditioner if I don't want to. Hair feels glossy, knots and tangles are certainly removed from it without using conditioner. Hair feels fresh and sleek and smells absolutely gorgeous and feels very clean without squeaking. My Mum only uses the shampoo on her short hair and her hair is left feeling soft and looking smooth and trust me I don't call my Mum brillo pad head for no reason usually!
In Conclusion....
Not sure if it 'repairs' problems but I am sure it smooths my hair down giving me glossy hair and is highly cleansing leaving hair not only feeling fresh but I'm convinced that it truly is. Hair is smoothed without the life being drained out of it and me...well I can't stop stroking my own hair after using it! I simply adore it! It's brilliant for every day use and doesn't weight hair and gives life body and bounce in a natural way! It's superb! Do be warned though! Only to be used on dried out and very damaged hair as it is powerful stuff!
I bought my bottle for £2.29 in Boots but do look out for offers such as buy one get one free etc with this brand.
Contains a repairing serum to reduce split ends and breakage /

If the theory you're going by mattered, then just use #6 to time it. Put a TDC mark 180 degrees from the line now on the damper.
But the whole thing revolves around setting the distributor in and having the oil pump drive shaft
indexed correctly
. In some non stock installations, there may be a lack of clearance that will make setting the timing a chore- but there's almost always enough adjustability to allow setting it right w/o clearancing the firewall or grinding, etc.
The rotor turns about 2" CW as the distributor engages the cam gear and is seated (on a large cap HEI, less on a small cap HEI), so set the rotor that far CCW to allow the gears to turn the rotor into position. The oil pump shaft can be easily turned w/a long screwdriver to allow the shaft of the distributor and the pump shaft to engage correctly.
Be sure the distributor isn't bottoming out by temporarily removing the gasket between the distributor and intake and setting the distributor into position. Then lift up on the top plate to be sure there's still a small amount of clearance. If there isn't clearance, use nylon spacers made for setting the distributor height. The shim kits are sold through Summit and Jegs, etc. from Moroso, Mr. Gasket, Jegs brand, and others as well. The kits typically contain 0.030", 0.060", and 0.090" (or 0.100", depending on brand) shims. Don't just stack fiber washers, they'll become oil logged and crush down and you'll lose the clearance if the clamp is tightened.

Many lenders are showing a new willingness to reduce the principal owed on the property by lowering or "writing-down" the amount. The reduction brings the mortgage loan in line with current property values and borrower incomes. As foreclosures rise so, it seems, does lenders' flexibility in offering this option: Principal write-down was used in 30 percent of private loan modifications in 2011, as opposed to only 2 …Read More Leave a Comment

Fat City started life as a little stall in Manchester's vast student emporium Affleck's Palace in 1993. Originally launched by DJ Mark Rae, Dave Walker and Ed Pitt to fill an underground niche they knew wasn't being catered for, they quickly outgrew the original stall, and in 1996 moved to their shop on Oldham Street. 'Our specialities are hip hop, soul, old funk, nu-jazz, broken beats and reggae,' explains head honcho Walker, the remaining founder, 'but I suppose most people know us for hip hop.'
Mark Rae left to start the record label Grand Central, and Walker is involved with Fat City Recordings, and there's no doubt that being part of this stable has helped the shop to blossom. 'That association has been really important to the shop,' agrees Walker. 'The fact that we're involved in club nights in Manchester, London and further afield gets the shop's name known. And when people like Rae & Christian and Aim started to blow up, you could see the effect. Fans and tourists started coming to Manchester from as far afield as Japan and Australia for the music, and Fat City was the shop they'd heard of.'
Although they don't feel directly threatened by the arrival of iTunes at all - 'We sell 90 per cent vinyl, and vinyl is the one format that has managed to hold its own against the new digital formats' - they're aware of the need to keep abreast of the times: 'I'm sure there will come a time when shops like us will look at selling downloads on our own sites.'

its like a skin tag but a hash tag is inside your butthole

I was expecting something racist
Aussies and Philadelphians are the only people here
It still gets me high..Never heard of the tag.

Everybody smokes hash, gets stoned, and then runs around trying to tag someone else so they can be it.
Don't care cause I got my hash pipe...
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

/// Fox Guts Out World Series Ratings Slide
The 2011 World Series got off to a thrilling start Wednesday night, as the St. Louis Cardinals eked out a 3-2 win over the Texas Rangers. Unfortunately for Fox, the quality of the on-field action wasn't reflected in the ratings . According to Nielsen live-plus-same-day data, the Series opener averaged 14.2 million viewers from 8:00 p.m. to 11:13 p.m. EDT, down 6 percent from the year-ago 15 million (Rangers-Giants). Game 1 of this year's Fall Classic notched a 4.2 rating among adults 18-49, an 11 percent drop from last year's 4.7. Wednesday night's broadcast marked the second smallest national audience for a World Series opener. In 2006, the Cards and Tigers limped out of the gate in front of just 12.8 million viewers. The median age of Fox's broadcast was 52 years. Only the 2006 Series led off with an older crowd (53)

Many residents express an interest in investigating research careers during their residency. At OSU, residents are encouraged to consider participating in research during their elective months.
In addition to elective time, all interns are assigned a month during their internship year to work on a scholarly project (the Career Development Month).This allows the residents anticipating a search for a fellowship in a highly competitive field like cardiology or gastroenterology to have a project in progress at the time of their fellowship interviews. It also allows residents the opportunity to try research early in their residency career.
Although a month is not a very long time, our residents have been very successful in participating in substantial projects because of the appropriate selection of mentors and projects. Current residents have worked with clinical, basic science, quality improvement and education researchers. A listing of presented abstracts from the past 3 academic years and where they were presented is listed here:
Resident Publications
Discovery, opportunity and collaboration underscore the research efforts in the Department of Internal Medicine. The Medical Genetics Program within the Division of Human Genetics, includes faculty who have begun to explore cardiovascular disease genetics in concert with researchers at OSU's Dorothy M. Davis Heart and Lung Research Institute and clinicians at the Richard M. Ross Heart Hospital. The Center for Microbial Interface Biology, in the Division of Infectious Diseases, links investigators campus wide in pathogenesis and bioterrorism research. The Division of Cancer Prevention and Control is led by Dr. Electra D. Paskett, whose research has a focus on behavioral interventions among minority and underserved populations. The Center for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) provides financial, organizational and educational support to biomedical researchers as well as opportunities for community members to participate in credible and valuable research.
These endeavors—characterized by their collaborative and multidisciplinary nature—are just a sample of the Department's expansive basic and clinical research efforts. Together they reflect the advancement of knowledge through research, an integral part of the mission of the OSU College of Medicine.

I DID 5 days at the sentido orka lotus beach and my bed sheets were never changed,sand all over the room as it was never swept,coffee mugs remain dirty and never washed or replaced,on one occasion the used towels were arranged like it was clean.i visited friends at a 3 star facilities which was a lot cleaner and better cleaning team than at this sentido shit. My wife almost left because of the dirtiness of the room cleaners. Will never recommend this hotel to my worst enemy. Food was in abundance but I could not enjoy my food as a proverb goes (if your room is dirty,your kitchen will neve be cleaner). My advice to kayak is take this hotel off the 5 star category and put it if I want to be nice on the 2 1/2 or 3 stars category. Dirtiness of the room cleaners,I could not walk bare feet in my room as it was very dirty and sandy as it was never swept.if there is no control on the room cleaning,there might never be control on the kitchen too. So let's blame management.
That they upgraded us to their sister 5 star hotel after we complained about the poor quality. Poor decor in the room. Room, especially the bathroom was filthy. No refreshments provided in the room - this was important as we were asked not to take food or drink into the room and the tap water was not suitable for drinking.
The position of the hotel is great and the cleaningless of the room was impecable. First of all I need to mention that the AirCondition has a program and it does not work in the exact moments when you need it. Then they should take into consideration that the staff is not wearing name tags and they also do not speak any international language. The communication is very difficult.

Since his enthronement, in 1951, following the abdication of his father King Leopold III, marking the end of the difficult Question Royale – also a mark, but a sad one, on Belgian 20th century history –, King Baudouin I of the Belgians had seen magazines all over the world and most expressly the Belgian Court trying to find a bride for the most solitary of kings, whose face always looked so immensely sad. Balls attended by noblewomen and princesses, meetings to see if a glimpse would catch King Baudouin, and everything seemed not to work. Then, when everyone was still remembering the grand wedding of HRH the Prince of Ličge – Prince Albert, King Baudouin's young brother and next in line to succeed to the Belgian throne – to the beautiful Donna Paola Ruffo di Calabria – an Italian princess from the high aristocracy, tipped as la dolce Paola by the media of the whole world – the news came as a new ray of light: on television and radio, the Prime Minister announced the engagement of His Majesty the King of the Belgians to Dońa Fabiola de Mora y Aragón, a Spanish noblewoman, two years older than the King.
This site is made not only as a commemoration of the birth of the heir of Prince Philippe and Princess Mathilde, but also as a homage to the late King Baudouin and a tribute to his beloved wife, the perfect model of a royal consort. We cannot hide a great personal admiration for the late sovereign, deceased in July 1993, whose reign we consider a momentous one in European royal history of the 20th century. We cannot also hide an immense respect and esteem for Her Majesty Queen Fabiola, who played the most difficult role while being somehow blamed for not having given an heir to the Belgian throne. Together they formed the strongest and most adored royal couple; alone Fabiola symbolises that the affection of a people towards a royal family does go past esteem, it may be, and it is in her case, real love.
Throughout these pages, we will recall the celebrations held in honour of the royal couple, the solemnity of the civil and religious ceremonies of the wedding, the happiness of the Belgian people, the guests who joined the happiness of a whole country. And we do so, now, as the spiritual heir of King Baudouin, his nephew Prince Philippe, is about to give the Belgian throne the heir that Queen Fabiola was not, to her and her husband's great anguish, able to give. And on doing so, we salute the memory of a great man, a great king and a great husband, His Majesty the late King Baudouin I of the Belgians.

When we were going over some of the hottest faces to have come out of California, I tried to make it as evenly matched as I could. I love when Battles are hard on you. (Or is that when Battles make you hard?) Whichever the case, we're hitting the airlines and taking a flight from one side of the country to the other. For the next few weeks, plan on crowning a Queen of New York, baby!
Olivia Wilde
I don't remember much of anything about Olivia Wilde prior to her showing up as Thirteen on "House," but that was all it took before I fell for this New York City native. The more I read about her, the more I found her to be more interesting than just a pretty face, although she definitely rules at that as well. Since breaking free from TV and a marriage to royalty, Ms Wilde has gone back to her Cockburn roots and has been dominating. But will it be enough to beat the other contenders for this week?
Rosario Dawson
I love New York City girl, Rosario Dawson about as much as a woman can love another woman and not be legitimately in lesbians with her. There's something about Rosie that makes me want to talk to her, hang out with her, have a beer and watch a game with her. She's gorgeous but she has this essence, this personality, that can scream at you from a simple picture. You want to know more about her.
Scarlett Johansson
ScarJo is gorgeous. I wish I could deny it and the best that I can do is say that there have been times when she hasn't looked as great as other times, but that's about as low as I can put it. The fact that she has a twin brother (who yes, we all know worked for Obama at one point and led to his sister putting her cute little foot in her cute, lush-lipped mouth) is cool. The fact that she's growing as an actress as she gets older is even cooler. One might venture to say hot, even.

A reluctant symbol of the mortgage mess, Vera Johnson is still underwater
When it became clear last summer that she was not going be able make her mortgage payment, Vera Johnson came to a realization. She was going to have to fight it. Her payment on her 30 year mortgage and the valuation on her property was so high that she was facing foreclosure.
As the West Seattle Herald reported in August, Johnson, a single mother of two and owner of Village Green Nursery, had attempted to get Bank of America to adjust her loan, an interest only 7 year ARM. But that process went badly. Repeated attempts to send in the appropriate paperwork were seemingly stymied.
Then the bank stopped accepting partial payments and began the foreclosure process in earnest, demanding more than $14,000 to prevent the process from going forward. Johnson, who could not make that payment posted a petition on Change.org that swiftly drew signers. Then the media picked up her cause. Stories appeared on local blogs, daily news websites, television and radio all detailing her ongoing struggle. Finally, Bank of America relented and adjusted her loan. But what they did is, for Johnson still a major issue. Instead of a 30 year loan, it became a 40 year loan. Instead of a fixed payment, the loan escalates by $200 per month more every year in October. Her $1700 payment will go to $2400 per month in four years. She believes she will never gain any equity in the home. She's still underwater. Her property was assessed at around $235,000. Her loan is for $390,000 meaning she's likely correct. Equity is a distant dream.
"I've already paid 9 years and now adding 40 years makes it a 50 year loan. So essentially I'm renting this house."
But her apparent "victory" has elevated her in the eyes of thousands who are facing similar crises.
This has led to her somewhat reluctant role as a symbol of the mortgage mess still being faced by so many. "As the problem keeps getting bigger and bigger all across the nation and so many people are not getting the help that they need, it means that I can't tell you how many people have sent me letters and emails and called about, 'Who can I call? Where can I go?"
Johnson keeps getting calls from reporters too including the Wall Street Journal this week because this issue is gaining momentum again. "The reason it is, is that Edward DeMarco, (Acting Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, and who oversees government owned mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) believes that mortgage forbearance is a better solution than modification."
Forebearance means that in order to prevent foreclosure, a bank and the borrower make an agreement in which the lender delays their right to exercise foreclosure if the borrower can catch up to his payment schedule in an agreed upon time.
But many are calling for a writing down of the value of the underwater mortgages (those in which the borrower owes more than the property is worth) by the government since they believe the values were inflated by the last so-called real estate bubble. Even the Obama Administration is in favor of this approach brokering a $25 billion foreclosure settlement in February.
DeMarco has drawn a great deal of criticism for his stance with Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D) N.Y. and the New Bottom Line (a coalition of activitist groups) earlier this month calling for his firing. With 20% of the nation's mortgages out of balance DeMarco's desire to get borrowers to pay is having an affect on the larger economy.
Johnson traveled to Washington DC in early March as a representative of the Washington Citizens Action Network, taking with her people's stories about their own mortgage issues. They built a site where people can continue to post their stories. It shows that 238,476 Washington State homes are underwater as of March 29.
While she did not make it into the White House others from her group did, meeting with Gene Sperling, the Director of the National Economic Council, and delivered 85,000 petitions that call for Ed DeMarco to go. The coalition is calling for at least a $300 billion principal reduction.
But last summer, following her loan modification, Johnson did something that raised some eyebrows. She took a 3 week vacation to France, causing many to wonder if her financial troubles were real. She explained, "My aunt had died two years prior, and I had no idea there was any money in a trust. There was money that was left to my mom. My mom died a year and a half before this thing happened literally, like a check from God, the bank gave me a modification and a check came from the trust fund within a week or so. The money should have gone to my mom. The money was split between my brothers and I. So yes, I took a vacation. I took a dream of a lifetime trip to France for 3 weeks. A friend was teaching a cooking class there and I said, you know what? I am absolutely going to live my life. I just went through 3 of the hardest years of my life. I lost my marriage, I lost my mom and I almost lost my home. I deserved a week for every year of that stress."
Her new prominence as a symbol is not something she sought. In fact she's uncomfortable with it. "In high school when I had to get up in front of the class I wanted to vomit," Johnson said, "I do not like public speaking. But this is something that is like a gift that has been given to me to speak as an advocate for so many people across the nation. This isn't about me. This is about my neighbors losing their homes."
Johnson is moving ahead with plans for her business, her website is new and she's "open to a business partner," and is working on weddings and other events in the garden. She has two houses on the land (she rents one out). She thinks sometimes, "Why don't I find an investor, tear down both houses and put green Eco-Pods on here and turn this into a destination place, and I'm talking to somebody about that. It's talk right now. We'd put 5 or 6 small homes on the foot print (7/8ths of an acre) and making it like a 'Sleeping Lady Resort' over in Leavenworth, but I don't know.

Through it all, she feels an odd kind of gratitude to the bank. "If you're in a relationship with someone who never has anything to give or offer and who doesn't show up? You want the hell out of it.

Impunity for the rich and famous leaves Thais outraged
By Martin Petty
BANGKOK (Reuters) - A dented silver Ferrari, a dead Thai policeman whose body was dragged for 200 meters under its wheels, a family driver ready to take the fall for the wealthy 27-year-old heir to the world-famous Red Bull energy drink empire.
This was the story splashed across the front pages in Thailand on Tuesday and a hot topic on web boards, where the common assumption was that a culture of impunity for the wealthy business and political elite would once again prevail.
Vorayuth Yoovidhya, a grandson of the late founder of Red Bull, billionaire Chaleo Yoovidhya, had initially fled the scene but later confessed to hitting the policeman, police said. He was released hours later on 500,000 baht ($16,000) bail.
Though Vorayuth has yet to appear in court, there seemed little faith among the public that justice would be served.
"Jail is only for the poor. The rich never get punished. Find a scapegoat," said one of a stream of comments posted on the popular Thai website, Panthip.com.
Another on news site Manager.co.th read: "He'll probably just get a suspended sentence. What's the cost of a life?"
Suspended jail terms do seem to be the norm for politically powerful or well-connected Thais.
In July, in the space of five days, two ruling party lawmakers and a former deputy prime minister were found guilty of defamation and received suspended sentences, while speaker of the senate Teeradej Meepien was adjudged to have illegally awarded himself monthly meeting allowances when he served as chief ombudsman. Teeradej won't be seeing a jail cell. Continued...

Injection molded metals have their say at medical event
Injection molded plastics have long found new applications by replacing metals; but these days it is often injection molded metals that are replacing metal components formed by casting, machining, or other processes.
Engel hosted a West Coast Medical Day event last week at its Corona, Calif. technical center, and while plastics dominated the agenda, the Austrian injection molding machine and automation supplier invited speakers from a metal molding customer and a new technology partner who gave attendees a glimpse into another side of injection molding.
Liquidmetal Technologies, Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif., only has two licensees for its amorphous metals, but the fact that one of them is Apple has garnered the company a great deal of attention. Paul Hauck, VP worldwide sales and support for Liquidmetal is new to his position (five weeks in when he presented in Corona), but not the industry, bringing 27 years of experience in metal injection molding.
As it pushes to broaden commercialization of its moldable alloy, which was initially discovered by NASA during research in the 1960s, Liquidmetal has sought partners, reaching an agreement with Engel in 2010 to supply machines especially outfitted to mold Liquidmetal, and a deal in 2011 with Materion Corp., to produce the specialty alloy.
Hauck laid out Liquidmetal's intellectual property position—the company has 58 U.S. patents with more than 50 pending—and then got into the unique characteristics of the material and its process, infusing his presentation with knowing commentary of the limits and strengths of traditional metal injection molding.
At various points, Hauck compared the precision of Liquidmetal against die casting, MIM, investment casting, and machining, saying the molded alloy could hold tolerances within ±.1, putting it on par with machining and ahead of the others. "Liquidmetal shines in areas with very high part complexity," Hauck said.
One slide compared the strength (in MPa), hardness, strength-to-weight ratio, and elasticity of Liquidmetal Alloy versus magnesium, aluminum, titanium, and stainless steel, with its alloy—a mix of zirconium, nickel, beryllium, calcium, and titanium— besting those metals, often by quite a bit. Hauck noted that the individual components of the alloy have very high melting temperatures, but combined together in the alloy, they melt at 720 C with a density of 6g/cm3.
A key differentiator from traditional MIM: Liquidmetal molding produces near net shape parts (shrinkage of only .2%), where MIM components can shrink as much as 20% and require the secondary processes of debinding and sintering. Post-molding Hauk said all a Liquidmetal part requires is degating.
In terms of the molding machine, Hauck showed a Schwertberg-made Engel eMotion, that instead of a traditional reciprocating screw injection system, features an induction heating system, which draws a vacuum and warms to 700 C, with a plunger to feed the melt. The material, which comes in ingots versus the powder/binder mix of MIM, is automatically fed via a modified loading section.
Liquidmetal is currently undertaking ISO 10993 parts 4, 5, 10, and 11 biocompatibility testing, a necessary step for greater medical adoption, and Hauck noted that the preliminary results "were very good." Finished Liquidmetal parts are corrosion resistant and non-magnetic, with a very fine surface finish. "If you have a polished tool," Hauck said, "you're going to have a polished part."
Hauck said the machines can create parts as heavy as 80g, with a maximum shot size of 100g. If individual parts weigh 5g or less, tools of 32 or 64 cavities are possible. From a design standpoint, Hauck said components should have radii, and given that shrink rate of .2%, some draft is required. Wall thickness can range from 1 to 4 mm, but Hauck cautioned that if designs go thicker, the finished components risk crystallization in the thicker sections, negating the inherent strength of the amorphous structure. It is that feature which makes Liquidmetal particularly compelling.
"Liquidmetal has the name 'metallic glass'," Hauck said, "but that's deceiving. Technically it is true but the finished material is still quite flexible." To prove this, Hauck showed videos of Liquidmetal test plaques being flexed mechanically but returning to their original shape, while other metals were permanently deformed.
Oregon-based MIM molder expands sales into China
Hauck's presentation was followed by former MIM colleague, John O'Donnell, medical market manager and senior applications engineer at Kinetics Climax, an Oregon based metal injection molding company that has standardized on Engel presses since its inception in the 1980s as Injection Molded Metal Products.
Today, Kinetics has 400 employees operating 25 hybrid and hydraulic injection molding machines 24/7 to produce 60 million parts annually.
That output, and the current repeatability of the MIM process, reflect the technology's maturation from its birth in the 1970s. "Even though MIM is a 35-year-old technology," O'Donnell said, "it's really just starting to grow because it's taken about half that time to perfect it and make it the robust process it is today."
For his part, Hauck estimated that MIM is growing anywhere from 15-30% per year and now constitutes a $5 billion industry.
That growth is felt acutely at Kinetics, which O'Donnell noted is "bursting at the seams" and weighing an expansion. From a sales standpoint, it has already increased its reach, recently opening a sales office in Shanghai from which its able to sell Chinese customers MIM parts molded in the U.S.
Whether it's MIM, Liquidmetal, machining or something else, Hauck noted that savvy engineers will listen to the part's design to find the right process for its fabrication. "With any given part," Hauck said, "it seems like it always wants to find its way back to the right process. [Liquidmetal] is not trying to chase applications that are the wrong fit."

It's the holiday season, so it's obviously that time of year when Econ 101 instructors start preparing their syllabi for spring semester. (Oh yeah, and something about Christmas.) For those who teach the course every semester or every year, most of this is pretty routine, but good instructors know how important it is to update examples and include topics that are being covered in the news and such. Ideally, this material would be presented in a way that (usually freshman) college students can relate to or find entertaining.
On that note, I would like to present a few items that macroeconomics instructors might find helpful (and others might find interesting) when talking about the Eurozone Crisis. (I preemptively offer up some combination of "you're welcome" and "I'm sorry." Also, I would advise brushing up a bit on the Eurozone stuff in order to make the parodies make a bit more sense. Here is a pretty good place to start.) First up is a Greece/Germany breakup video, of course:
Not to be outdone by it's holiday-themed sequel:
So that's a good start with the economics and the humor, but we need to add in some pop-culture references in order to have a proper nerd trifecta. Luckily, economic journalists are not going to leave us hanging. First up is Matt Yglesias over at Slate.com, who is convinced that Taylor Swift is a savant when it comes to currency and debt crises:
Mario Draghi and Taylor Swift are two of Business Insider's most impressive people of 2012, but few recognize that there are important linkages between them that go beyond the fact that Joe Weisenthal wrote the blurbs.
In hindsight, I guess that Taylor made Matt's job quite easy by collaborating with Swedish songwriters on songs with titles such as "I Knew You Were Trouble." (Keep in mind that Sweden made the, in hindsight, probably wise decision to not move to the Euro.) Interestingly enough, however, Ms. Swift isn't the only example of economic relevance in pop culture lyrics. After all, we've known since June how much Carly Rae Jepsen has to say about the Eurozone crisis:
Hey, she's a popstar, and this is crazy, but is Carly Rae Jepsen a euro crisis genius, maybe?
I know, I know. The only thing more maddening than "Call Me Maybe" is the euro crisis. One is a banal string of saccharine statements, punctuated by swift choruses of action. The other is a pop song. And neither will go away.
Some of the analysis is a bit farfetched, but even I will admit that these articles kept my attention for longer than most other writing on the Eurozone crisis has.
Hey, remember a few years back when Bono was supposedly on the short list to head the World Bank? Doesn't seem so farfetched now, does it…

Kid Friendly Technology
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (for
We all know that most kids are extremely fascinated
by technology. My daughter knows how to work my iPad better than I
can. As fascinated as I am by her ability to swipe her tiny index
finger from left to right, I felt that the time had come for her to
get her own "kid friendly" tablet. The decision was based on two
factors. The first one being that I needed my iPad and secondly, I
got tired of apologizing for sending out emails that read "
We opted for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 for a number of
reasons. For one, the size was perfect for her little hands; the
one we purchased came with a protective rubber cover which not only
gives her a better grip but also protects the tablet.
What I like most about the Samsung are the features. The
parental control is a personal favorite, you can create a password
to disable purchases, set time limits as well as monitor
The specialized user interface (or home screen) is
extremely easy to use. Swipe and touch. There are also tons of
interactive, educational games and books that can be downloaded for
free in the kids store via Google Play.
As your child gets older and no longer wants to play Toy
Story Smash It, no need to go buy a new tablet. The Samsung
converts to the Galaxy Tab 7 mode making it user friendly for kids
of all ages. That includes you.
