Paris urges training of moderate imams
Page Tools
France must urgently begin training Muslim clerics in a moderate Islam that respects human rights and the republican code, according to French Interior Minister Dominique de Villepin.
Speaking to a meeting of local prefects on Thursday, a day after he deported an Algerian imam who was in favour of stoning women, Mr de Villepin said France should not think twice about expelling any foreign preacher who advocated violence, hatred, racism or human rights abuses.
But the country had to "face the issue of training imams. I ask you to help the Muslim faith get organised better... so that a real 'French Islam' can emerge."
The problem of radical Islamic clerics preaching a message contrary to French law and values is pressing: Government figures show 27 Muslim prayer leaders have been deported on public order or human rights grounds since 2001 - more than half of them since last July.
Abdelkader Bouziane, the 52-year-old imam of a Lyon mosque, said the Koran authorised husbands to hit their wives, that polygamy was right, that women were not men's equals and that music was a sin.
Asked whether he approved of the stoning of unfaithful wives, he replied: "Yes."
He was deported on Wednesday, a week after Abdelkader Yahia Cherif. The self-proclaimed imam of Brest in Brittany had asked his congregation to "rejoice in the Madrid bombings" that killed 191.
France's 5 million Muslims - Europe's largest Muslim population - are ministered to by between 1000 and 1500 imams. Only 10 per cent are believed to be citizens, less than half speak French and most are probably illegal immigrants.
Most hail from abroad: 40 per cent from Morocco, 24 per cent from Algeria, 16 per cent from Turkey and 6 per cent from Tunisia. Any advanced religious training they get is likely to be in fundamentalist views that clash with French laws.
Many experts warn that fundamentalist Islam is making increasing headway in France's still overwhelmingly moderate Muslim community.

shift points???
Hi guys, I have a '96 SLS and whether I shift into 1st or leave it in drive, it shifts at about 6000rpm! If I shift to 1st it will shift to 2nd at 6000 rpm even if I don't move the lever, however it shifts much firmer this way. Is there any way to override this feature that won't cause some other problem?
Re: shift points???Originally Posted by Randy_W
Not really a good idea as the engine is shifting at the correct point (6000) for performance and power and shifting it any higher won't really make the car faster. Also, the valve springs in the SLS are only good for 6500 until a no follow condition develops and you really really don't want to run the engine into no follow. The over head cam, direct acting tappets will not last long in a no follow condition. They will crack the face of the tappet if subjected to a no follow condition for even a short period of time and the cracked lifter face will rapidly develop into a shattered tappet.
Re: shift points???Originally Posted by bbob
I noticed that after getting the Corsa, the highest shifts went up by about 200 rpms. Where the car used to shift at a max of 6200, it started running to 6400 instead. I've only seen the 6500 thing that once, but man was the car feeling extra strong that day. (Though, maybe it was 6400 as usual and I just didn't get the best look at it, but I sure thought it ran to 6500 that time.)
Is this something I should be concerned about? I have not changed anything on the car except using a K&N air filter and a Corsa exhaust. Also, the fuel shutoff is listed as being 6500 rpm, so wouldn't damage to the engine come at some point higher than that? Thanks!
Re: shift points???
Shift points for the 4T80E are different for different model years......the original post/answer referenced a 96 SLS which would have the LD8 engine....the shift points were designed to be at 6000. The STS engine in 96, for example, would shift at 6500 RPM....it was programmed to shift higher due to the more radical inlet cams and it had stronger valve springs to enable the increased RPM upshifts.
The valve springs between the LD8 and the L37 engine were commonized in mid 97 I think (to the stiffer L37 springs) and later model year Northstars shifted slightly higher.
Most things like this changed slightly with 2000 model and later as the Northstar/Aurora engine was significantly redesigned with the roller follower valve train in specific. The roller valve train used the same springs for all applications and the LD8 shifts were bumped up slightly and the L37 and Aurora engines from 2000 on shifted at 6500.
Re: shift points???
Thanks for taking the time to explain it!
Is it normal for the shift point to rise as the car breaks-in or something? I'm absolutely positive that my car used to shift at 6200 rpm even when fully warmed, shifter in 2nd, and TC off. But now it definitely runs higher (it seemed to coincide with the Corsa install, but I don't floor it like that every day or anything). Thanks again, you (and this board) are a fountain of info!

Re: shift points???
Randy_W, are you saying that you don't want the car to override your choice of D1 and go into second or you don't want any possible problem from the hard shifts?
I don't have a N* engine but I have the 3.5L shortstar and I read that the maximum rpm that the computer will allow for my engine is 6500, 6200, 6000 and 6000, respectively, from first to fourth. My engine will routinely shift out at 6500 in first but not always. It's just the electronic rpm ceiling. Other conditions, such as the ambient conditions or external mods, also come into play.
Personally, I don't like hard shifts. My car has the 4T65E tranny (with a starter in the correct location) and I read about people with Grand Prixes (?) who buy the aftermarket mods to get a race hard shift. They say that the clutch plates will last longer but they end up damaging the tranny hard parts.
I am suprised that my engine goes to 6500 in first virtually all the time and the N*s don't. After all, the 3.5L is rated at 215 hp at a lower rpm (5600) and the stroke of the 3.5L is longer than the other N* engines, which translates into greater piston speed. Many, if not most of the upgrades that appeared in the 2000 4.6L and the 2001 4.0L (no 2000 Aurora) first appeared in the 1999 3.5L. And I don't understand why the N* blocks sometimes develop oil leaks when the 3.5L doesn't.
Re: shift points???
Hey Olds3.5, according to the specs I saw, the 3.5L Twin Cam has a fuel cutoff at 6700 rpm, as opposed to the 6500 rpm of the 4.0L and 275hp 4.6. Looks like your cutoff is more like the 300hp 4.6L which is also at 6700 rpm.
It sounds like Bbob is saying the earlier Premium V8 had a lower shift point (and presumably fuel cutoff) than this, which would explain why Randy's 4.6 doesn't shift as high.
Re: shift points???
Hmm, maybe the fuel cutoff and the shift point are not exactly similar for all of the engines. While perusing the GM Powertrain part of media.gm.com, under the "what's new, changed L37/LD8" document, this is in the overview:OVERVIEW
When it was launched in the 1993 Cadillac Allante, the 90-degree Northstar was the first all-American dual-overhead cam aluminum V-8 engine. Sixteen patents protected its advanced technologies; seven more have been granted since. In 1994, the original Northstar (RPO L37) was joined by a second version (LD8). Different camshafts and cam lobe profiles provided different power curves and very different driving characteristics. The L37 is more responsive, higher revving, with more peak horsepower and a higher redline (6500 rpm vs. 6000 rpm). The LD8 puts more emphasis on quick launch and part-throttle response, with greater peak torque. The Northstar V-8 was the basis for a technological renaissance at Cadillac, lending its name to an entire automotive system that includes the most advanced traction-enhancement, suspension and anti-skid electronics in the world. Since the engines introduction, GM Powertrain has steadily improved this premium V-8 and continued to push its technological envelope.
If that's right, it seems:
L37 shift: 6500 cutoff: 6700
LD8 shift: 6000 cutoff: 6500
L47 shift: 6400? cutoff: 6500
LX5 shift: 6500 cutoff: 6700
I dunno...
Re: shift points???
I don't really want to buzz the engine, I just like the idea of being able to shift if I want to without being told when! When I put the lever in 1st myself I get a much firmer shift, I like that, I just don't like it shifting for me when I don't ask it to! I don't have this with my '67 Impala with the '96 LT-1/4L60E and I like being able to control it manually, thats all.
Re: shift points???
There are many many factors governing the shift points. You guys are trying to read too much into them...LOL
There is a tremendous amount of analysis and testing that goes into optimizing the shift points for performance.
There can by physical limitations, like the valve springs and the valve no-follow limiting speeds, the speed of the accessories, the spin energy capability of the trans, etc....
The trans has to overcome two things at the shift, the torque of the engine and the spin energy of inertia of the trans rotating parts and the engine rotating parts. The torque of the engine can be instantaneously modulated via torque management to help the shift but the spin energy is there and the trans just has to deal with it. So the spin energy can govern the shift point.
The tach readout can be "slow" and "variable" due to the update rate of the info to the tach over the serial data link from the PCM... Depending on how fast the engine is accelerating this error can be 200 or 300 RPM and can be variable depending on how the update rate coincides with the shift point.
Often the speed of the accessories can govern shifts... if the generator is overdriven so as to keep the sytem alive at idle it will then govern how fast the generator can turn at the shift point ... which will often limit the shift point.
With the LD8 and the L37 and the 3.5 V6 you are comparing different engines in different cars with different trans and final drive ratios and vehicle masses....apples to oranges is the comparison.....
It is true that the roller valve train first went into production on the 3.5 V6 but the system was designed/developed/validated on the Northstar engine several years before the V6... The implementation on the Northstar was delayed to coincide with the 2000 model year to go along with all the other changes to the engine at that time. The roller follower that is used in both of those engine families is actaully a common part for the LD8, L37 and the 3.5 V6...as well as the Vortec inline 6, 5 and 4 cylinder engines and the EcoTec 4 cylinder. The first development of that part took place on the Northstar and the Northstar was used as the genie pig for all of GM Powertrain applications.
The LD8 was orginally released with the softer valve springs so as to improve the fuel economy (less friction). That , and the lower torque peak, is why the LD8 shifts sooner..about 5800-6000 RPM. The L37 can rev higher and make more power at higher speeds due to the revised cam timing...so it got stiffer valve springs to allow the higher RPM operation.... The roller system was developed with "stiffer" springs from the beginning as there is little or no penalty to stiff springs with the rolling element followers so the 3.5 and both the LD8 and L37 can shift at higher speeds from 2000 on....
One obvious tweak to this scenario is the Pontiac Bonneville GXP with the NOrthstar. Even though it is "just" the LD8 it has (for the first time in production ) the 3.71 final drive and a very low restriction exhaust system. The lower final drive lets the engine rev a little easier and the exhaust helps the engine to extend to pull off the higher, 6500, shift points of the GXP.
So, there are no hard and fast rules about the shift points and shift RPM. It depends on the car, the mass, the trans, the spin energy, the final drive, the torque curve, etc...
With the LD8 for example it is quicker in acceleration to shift a 6000 and let the engine work in the next gear due to the greater low end torque characteristics of the LD8 compared to the L37....
Randy, sorry you do not like being forced to shift. You'll have to learn to live with it. It isn't a 67 Impala... The engine and trans and driveline have to be protected so the forced upshifts are there. It is either that or hit the rev limiter which would be lowered. Since it is not any faster to upshift at a higher engine speed just put the selector in 2 , get the firmer shifts and live with it.... As previously mentioned, the direct acting tappets are very sensitive to any engine overspeed conditions and valve train no follow conditions so it has to be protected.
Re: shift points???Originally Posted by bbob
Thanks a lot for the thorough explanation. I was a bit surprised to know the tach could be off by as much as 200-300 rpm, though!
Re: shift points???Originally Posted by Aurora40
Well the tach won't be off on a steady state sitution...it is just in the transient where the engine is changing speed rapidly where the update rate of the electronic system can be a little behind.
Re: shift points???
"Randy, sorry you do not like being forced to shift. You'll have to learn to live with it. It isn't a 67 Impala... "
My Impala Has a '96 Corvette drivetrain with full OBD II function. It, too, would be damaged by over reving the engine, but I still have the option to shift when I want to. By the way this OHV motor shifts at 5800 in drive, and I shift at about 6200 manually, sound familier? As for learning to live with it, don't count on it! Someone somewhere knows how to program these things!

Good grief, do you mean that I am not alone? I lose things dozens of times each day, forget whether or not I've taken a medication, put ice cream in the refrigerator, and numerous other things. I have too many pills to take to do the bottle upside down trick, but I never remember to fill the daily little pill boxes. I think that it is age. I hate that.My biggest problem is trying to remember if I took my pills or not, so I have started turning the bottles upside down when I have taken them and then right side them back up just before bed time.
Also, a gallon of milk will not fit into the microwave even though I have tried it on numerous occasions.

Tell me something else, folks. Does it seem to you that time just whizzes by?
The last 35 years went by in a flash. Hubby and I were talking about the Blizzard of 78, and how we were stuck on the hill in our old house for 4 days before plows dug us out. That's when I realized, holy cow. How can that be so long ago. That
is why I always try to be friendly and helpful toward others. Life is a gift, and a brief one at that.

I don't turn all the bottles upside down, just one. I had one of those daily boxes and threw it away. I could not remember to fill it either and most often can't even remember what day it is.

HI , all , it has made me want buttercups all day... loved the sun,,, when I was little my granny had them in her front yard, and oh they were my favorite..( i only married my first husband due to him bringing me them on our first date)ha, anyway , I picked every single one in the yard , and placed them on my ma's table for her. She wanted to get a willow , switch , but she knew my heart was in the right place.... I planted them all over her grave and each year , she lays beneath the butter cups.. Love and miss ya lots...
May someone care enough to plant flowers on your grave when you pass... I want mine covered with butter cups, roses and anything else.. But my luck it will be covered with weeds, and sunk in (from no one visiting me, or people still stomping on me when Im gone..)..lol

Ever walk into a room with some purpose in mind, only to completely forget what that purpose was?
Turns out, doors themselves are to blame for these strange memory lapses.
Psychologists at the University of Notre Dame have discovered that passing through a doorway triggers what's known as an Event Boundary in the mind,
separating one set of thoughts and memories from the next. Your brain files away the thoughts you had in the previous room and prepares a blank slate
for the new locale.

Steve Chalke is a UK Christian leader. He is one of the most influential leaders in the British Evangelical movement. Chalke is on the leadership team of the UKs biggest Christian conference Spring Harvest. He is best known for his work with Oasis Trust which is a social action charity. Chalke serves on the boards of many Christian organisations and is a regular feature on British televison.
Thus, controversy erupted in 2004 when it became clear that Chalke had denied the doctrine of Penal Substitution (PSA) in his book The Lost Message of Jesus. A section in this book has been called blasphemous by John Piper. The Evangelical Alliance censored Chalke but did not expel him, and he continues to be a speaker for Spring Harvest. When Spring Harvest and Word Alive separated in 2007 the controversy over Chalke was once again fanned into flame as the book Pierced for Our Transgressions had also been recently written. NT Wright has strongly supported Chalke and claims that he does after all believe in PSA despite an article by Chalke which denies this categorically.

Second suspect caught in murder of Lake City merchant
Published: Thursday, August 29, 2013 at 11:36 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, August 29, 2013 at 11:36 a.m.
A second suspect has been arrested in the shooting death of Lake City store owner Rajni Patel more than a year ago.
Acting on information provided by a Lake City police detective, U.S. Marshals on Thursday arrested Ernest Larry Grandison, 43, in Jefferson Parish, La., according to a report from the Lake City Police Department.
Grandison, of 864 NW Thetis Place in Lake City, was one of two men who held up the A&M Discount Beverage store, 394 SE Duval St., on April 27, 2012, police reported.
During the robbery, Patel, 55, was fatally wounded. His wife, Daxa Patel, was in the store during the robbery but was not harmed.
Investigators identified one of the suspects as James Leonard Johnson. On May 19, 2012, law enforcement officers served a search warrant on Johnson's house, but he was not there. He later was arrested in the Jacksonville area.
Grandison, Johnson's father‐in‐law, could not be located, and an arrest warrant for murder and robbery was issued.
Investigator David Greear of the LCPD recently developed a key piece of evidence on Grandison's location. Acting on that information, Grandison was captured Thursday in Louisiana, police reported.

I call this my "paella of the house" because it was first made with ingredients on hand, inspired from a more authentic recipe for "Paella Valenciana" by Penelope Casas. If I have them around, I might also combine ingredients like smoked sausage, chorizo, rabbit, pork, green beans, red bell pepper, green onions, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, white beans, lima beans, chickpeas, parsley, thyme, marjoram or a hearty mix of shellfish and seafood.
Serves 5
2-1/2 pounds chicken thighs (about 5)
3-1/2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 teaspoon crumbled thread saffron
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup diced bell pepper (small dice)
1/2 red onion
5 cloves minced garlic
1-1/2 ounces finely diced prosciutto
2 teaspoons paprika (sweet or mildly hot)
1-1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes, chopped
2 cups frozen peas
2-1/2 cups Arborio rice
2 sprigs fresh rosemary (or 1/4 teaspoon dried)
1. Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pat the chicken dry and sprinkle with salt.
2. Heat the chicken broth and wine in a small saucepan until boiling. Crumble in the saffron, turn off the heat and cover until ready to use.
3. While the broth warms, heat the olive oil in a pan—use a paella pan if you have it; I use a Dutch oven or a large heatproof frying or large gratin pan. Brown the chicken on both sides. Remove the chicken and set aside.
4. Add the green pepper, onion, garlic and prosciutto to the pan. Sauté on medium about 5 minutes. Stir in the paprika, tomatoes, and peas. (The paella may be made in advance to this point.) Stir in the rice, coating thoroughly.
5. Reheat the chicken broth to boiling. Stir into the rice. Cook on a low boil until the mixture stops being soupy, but leave enough liquid to cook the rice through as it bakes. Nestle the chicken pieces into the rice, submerging them completely. Arrange the rosemary on top.
6. Bake the paella uncovered about 10 minutes, until the rice is almost done and just moist. Remove the pan from the oven, cover and let rest 10 minutes. Remove the rosemary and serve.

JAva & Mathematica
I would like to know if it is possible to realize a communication
between java and
mathematica . I have seen at Wolfram site but I found nothing. But I
have seen
an applet showing some mathematica animations. Help me !

I hang a pine rope garland along the top and sides hung with crystal icicles of various shapes and sizes. In the center of each section I hang large crocheted snow flakes. In the center section I place our main Christmas tree. When folks drive up to our house they see a winter scene even if the weather has been mild. This year though the outdoor icicles gave my indoor ones some stiff competition! I also hang a pine rope garland over the two sets of atrium doors in our dining room. I twine red velvet ribbon around the garland and cluster long glitter icicles of various colors at one end with a red velvet bow at the other.

Subjective and predicted sleepiness while driving in young adults
Smith, Simon S., Carrington, Melinda, & Trinder, John (2005) Subjective and predicted sleepiness while driving in young adults. Accident Analysis & Prevention, 37(6), pp. 1066-1073.
Sleepiness is a significant contributor to car crashes and sleepiness related crashes have higher mortality and morbidity than other crashes. Young adult drivers are at particular risk for sleepiness related car crashes. It has been suggested that this is because young adults are typically sleepier than older adults because of chronic sleep loss, and more often drive at times of increased risk of acute sleepiness. This prospective study aimed to determine the relationship between predicted and perceived sleepiness while driving in 47 young-adult drivers over a 4-week period. Sleepiness levels were predicted by a model incorporating known circadian and sleep factors influencing alertness, and compared to subjective ratings of sleepiness during 2518 driving episodes. Results suggested that young drivers frequently drive while at risk of crashing, at times of predicted sleepiness (>7% of episodes) and at times they felt themselves to be sleepy (>23% of episodes). A significant relationship was found between perceived and predicted estimates of sleepiness. However, the participants nonetheless drove at these times. The results of this study may help preventative programs to specifically target factors leading to increased sleepiness when driving (particularly time of day), and to focus interventions to stop young adults from driving when they feel sleepy.

Lovecraft Birthplace Marker Unveiling
(3.15) Lovecraft devotees with be meeting Tuesday at 5pm for the unveiling of a birthplace marker created by artist Gage Prentiss. Organized by the proprietors of the Lovecraft Arts & Sciences Council — check out their weird emporium in the Arcade — today's event should be a fairly low-key ceremony. It's a busy intersection so stay out of the street. Lovecraft historian Donovan K. Loucks describes the location in his Guide to Lovecraftian Sites in RI,
The Lovecrafts lived here from 1893 through 1904, when Howard's grandfather, Whipple Phillips, died. Lovecraft loved this building and hoped to someday have enough personal wealth to acquire it. It was, unfortunately, torn down in 1961.
The house at 454 Angell Street is shown below. What a loss.

Tommi Niemainen, writing in the Finnish newspaper, Sanomat, has identified an interesting idea that might result in peace between Palestinians and Israelis– minarets for peace. He argues that Helsinki which has been identified as the Design Capital of 2012 could "definitely do with a couple of striking minarets" to light up the city at night with dazzling lights. There is something to his idea that makes sense. What if Jerusalem became the site of dozens of minarets which were outfitted with varying color lights at night, they would add a glow to the city that would be seen for miles around.
Think about it, minarets for peace. How could any suicide bomber blast away in a city containing dozens of minarets? How could any Muslim accuse Israelis of being prejudiced if Jerusalem was adorned with minarets attached to mosques? After all, if Jerusalem became the minaret capital of the world, Muslims would have to flock to it, business would boom, Palestinians and Jews would make money and there would no longer be any basis for conflict.
Of course, we could always place minarets in West Bank settlements and for every house built for Jewish settlers, a minaret would have to be built which would be attached to the Jewish house. I think that would end West Bank settlement construction!
I always thought the Swiss were good at making money. Boy, did you people blow it when voting to ban minarets.

Subaru WRX Forum (http://www.wrxtuners.com/forums/)

- - Misfire and shuttering acceleration (http://www.wrxtuners.com/forums/f72/misfire-shuttering-acceleration-33241/)
Misfire and shuttering acceleration
I'm trying to get down the root of the problem. This is for a 2005 Subaru WRX with 93k miles on it.
I haven't driven my car many miles in the past months. Probably 1,000 miles over 7 months. I try to take it out once a week for about 15-20 mile drive.
I recently starting having problems. I first noticed that my car would shuttered only under heavy acceleration. My CEL would flash a few times and go off. I first checked the code. It had a misfire on cylinder one. I figured my injectors were getting plugged up since my car sits a lot. I put fuel injector cleaner through. I also cleaned out the purge valve. My code cleared for cylinder one. I still have the acceleration problem. This only happens under heavy acceleration, my car shutters once it moves up into the higher RPMs. If I gradually accelerate, no issues. Now, I'm having a misfire on cylinder 3.
My car is completely stock. No replacement parts besides general maintenance items.
Just to add. I also swapped out the coil packs and spark plugs to see if that made a difference. My codes didn't change based on swapping parts around.
And do you put fresh gas every month or so?
I do, I never fill up the tank all the way in order to make sure I can put fresh fuel in every once in awhile. I run it down to about 1/8 of a tank, then fill it back up to a 1/4.
Check the fuel filters and injectors. Have you done your timing belt/pullies/water pump/thermostat yet?
Alright, thanks I'll take a look at that. I haven't done any of that maintenance yet. I was reading the manual saying that the timing belt is at 120k.
I haven't done anything to the water pump or thermostat, just full radiator flushes every 30k. I'm not having any overheating problems.
When you swapped the parts around, did the misfire move? Are you boosting at all, or is the cut out that bad? Only other thing I would recommend to check is your vac lines. Maybe one is dry rotted from sitting?
Timing belt is @ 90k btw.
The misfiring didn't move to another cylinder. The boost cuts in and out. So it'll kick on for a second, then the car would shutter. It would kick back on, do this about 6-7 times up to the redline. It only happens when I have really push it. If I gradually accelerate up to redline, its smooth and boosting.
I checked out all the lines I could get to. No cracking of any sort.
Almost sounds like a bad MAF....I would check that next if your fuel checks out okay.
Wouldn't the bad MAF trigger a code and cause the car to idle rough?
I took the car out of a drive today. The car only shutters when its boosting. At lower RPMs with the pedal to the floor, it accelerates smoothly. I will begin to hear the turbo start spooling up. Get the burst of power, then it shutters. I also hear what it almost sounds like, air escaping. I'm starting to wonder if I have a bad air by-pass valve. Could it pre-maturely failing?
Check for boost leaks. under the TMIC first.
No luck. Everything looks good.
my car is doing the exact same thing. i just changed plugs. the old ones were shot and it seemed to help a little. doesnt do it much in first gear but 2-5th is horrible. when you find out what your issue is, please let me know! i just bought the car yesterday and gotta get this figured out.
I'm sure I will get a little bit of hate for this but... I was having the same problem on my RX8 like a week ago right after I filled up the tank. before I filled up I was having a rough idle problem, but after I got gas the car completly died on me while driving down the highway, and would not restart... to get to the point after trying a few things myself I ended up taking it to the shop. They ended up replacing the plugs and wires, the coils, and the fuel pump (because they broke it). they also came to the conclusion that the gas in the tank was contaminated, so they drained it (hints the broken pump) and filled it back up. The shop told me that it was a combination of all of the problems together making the car act like it did. when I got it back it ran like a CHAMP (or as well as expected for an RX8) haha. When you take the car to get gas are you going to the same place every time? maybe their gas is slightly contaminated? maybe so octane booster would help?
And just to clarify to hopefully reduce the amount of flame I will receive I have a 2013 wrx on order, currently waiting for it to get to the dealer, I am not just randomly a member of a subie forum.
it sounds like we have the same problem, but my car isnt throwing a code. i replaced plugs, swapped my bov with a stock bypass valve, checked the y pipe under the tmic and all charge pipes for leaks/cracks and couldnt find anything.

Interesting findings from Nielsen that ABC has 9 of the top 10 shows watched online. It is interesting that ABC has carved out a dominant position with out being on everybody's favorite TV portal, Hulu, or setting up a vast distribution network (similar to what CBS has put in place).
We have discussed online TV distribution strategies in our report, The Internet Television Value Chain, and would love to hear your feedback on what you think ABC is doing right? Or what its competitors are doing wrong?

UK commercial broadcaster ITV's announcement this
morning that it would be cutting 600 jobs, slashing programming budgets and selling
off a number of its assets, was hardly a surprise. Broadcasters internationally
will recognise the picture: the downturn in advertising revenues, to which ITV
is exposed more than any other UK
broadcaster, has been accelerated by the economic downturn. Current models are
not sustainable and hard decisions have to be made.

Depression often makes people neglect the things they have to do every day. Suddenly, your mother might not be able to get out of bed in time to make you breakfast before school, or your father just didn't feel up to
If your mother has recently had a new baby, she might also be showing some of these signs. There's a type of clinical depression called postpartum depression that moms often experience after giving birth.
If you think your parent might be clinically depressed, check the lists in Signs and Symptoms and Manic Depression. Depression is one of those things that parents and kids don't often feel comfortable talking about, but it's important to get beyond those the awkwardness and get it out into the open. It's one of those times in life when you might have to act a little like an adult, even though you're still a kid.
If you feel like your parent won't listen to you, try to tell another trusted adult, such as a relative or even your school counselor, about what's been going on.
Here are some things that you or a trusted adult might want to bring up when talking to your parent about his or her depression:
In the next section, we look at what can happen when clinical depression is left untreated: Suicide and Self-Injury.

Steering Wheel?
:D Got myself into a predicament in regards to a steering wheel. I have a Cadillac tilt, telescopic steering column ('73) that needs a steering wheel. The original Cadillac wheel was pretty ratty and so I started to look for one in the after market. Saw a few on "flea-bay" and then decided to go for one of them. In the meantime I ordered a MOMO adaptor, as they are built for the telescopic feature, which accomodates 6 mounting hole type wheels. Now I have a problem because I want to mount some other type of wheel other than MOMO. Does anyone know who makes the 6 hole version type of steering wheel? Most of them are 5 hole or 9 hole types. This is going into my '32 street rod which means that it has to look like it belongs there. :confused:

You might give Roger a call @ "The Wheel Shoppe" www.thewheelshoppe.com...... He builds probably the nicest Banjo wheel available and has all the knowledge available to maybe do a conversion to your Momo hub. I found this "Wheel Shoppe" Banjo wheel on ebay, the guy only used it 1 month in a T bucket and wanted a smaller wheel (???) And it was even the right color!

not allowed to carry on campus...
stab him violently with my pen?
(better throw my Criminal Law text at him...) (that'll leave a mark)
This is a discussion on Hypothetical Nightmare Virginia Tech Tactical Scenario.... within the Carry & Defensive Scenarios forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; The shooting at VT made me wonder how things would have gone if you were an armed CCW holder in that situation. It is difficult ...
The shooting at VT made me wonder how things would have gone if you were an armed CCW holder in that situation. It is difficult because of the variables involved. Here is the scenario below. Try and choose the best option, and of course, comment.
1) You and many other students are trapped in a building when the shooting begins. Closed environment. Some doors have been blocked off. No easy routes of escape(jumping out a window is not an option).
2) Many panicked students and faculty running around and screaming.
3) Shooter is not easily identified and exact location is unknown.
4) Police have orders to go in.
Options vs. drawbacks:
Option #1: Draw weapon and attempt to engage perp.
Drawback: You may be mis-identified as perp and fired upon by police and other CCW holder(s) or attacked by other students. You may inadvertantly engage another CCW holder doing the same as you.
Option #2: Draw weapon, retreat to a corner and wait.
Drawback: You may be mis-identified as perp and fired upon by police and other CCW holder(s) or attacked by other students. You may inadvertantly engage another CCW holder doing the same as you.
Option #3: Don't draw weapon, attempt to manuever and evade perp---Hide.
Drawback: Since perp is not identified, you may not be prepared to engage if forced to.
Option #4: Don't draw weapon, try to identify and engage perp.
Drawback: If you find perp, you aren't ready for an engagement. You may mis-identify another CCW holder. Once engaged, you may be mis-identified as perp.
Option #5: Call 911 with cell phone.
Drawback: Precious time lost making call. A phone isn't going to help you at that moment. You are on the phone when perp appears.
Option #6: Play dead.
Drawback: You may be trampled. You are very ill prepared to engage perp if forced to.
I am having trouble deciding which option is the best. I would probably choose Option #2, but there are huge risks associated with that decision.
If anyone has other options than the ones listed above, please feel free to add. What would you choose?

(better throw my Criminal Law text at him...) (that'll leave a mark)
First, I'm not going AFTER the perp. That's can be seen by anyone as aggressive behavior and no, I don't know what he looks like and if I'm armed, sure enough there may be other armed individuals. I have a duty, first, to try to escape and help others escape. I'm not running from the room as I don't know what I'm running into.
I would first call the police while drawing my gun. I would tell everyone in my class that I'm an armed citizen and that I was going to draw a gun and that everyone should get relatively behind me and take as much cover as possible because I do not want to shoot any innocent by standers. I would take out my CCW and hold it as well. When the police answered the phone I would say (loud enough for everyone in my class to hear), "My name is, Limatunes," (names have been changed to protect the innocent) "I am an ARMED CITIZEN on the third floor of building A. There are shots being fired. Again, I am an armed citizen with a CCW permit. I am trapped in this room and from the sound progression, it sounds like the shooting is making his way towards us. I am in Room 312 with 15 other people. I am female, 5' 3" tall, blond hair, blue eyes, 105 lbs. wearing a brown skirt and sweater and a tan shirt. I repeat, I am armed with a handgun and ready to defend myself should the shooter present himself. I understand that the police are on the way. There is NO means of escape. Please notify them that there is an armed citizen in the building. I am holding my concealed weapons permit in my left hand, with my cell phone.."
I would take as much cover as I could and keep the 911 operator on the line through the entire thing. I would keep repeating my location, my description and whatever I have learned until either a) the threat presented itself, at which point I would fire, b) the police arrived, at which point I would raise my hands FAR over my head, flip on my thumb safety and drop the gun, INSTANTLY. In my left hand I would continue to display my permit. I will probably be cuffed and taken away but at least I'll be alive.
P.S. I'd probably also put my phone on speaker phone so that I could move around with both hands more effectively and so that the other individuals in the room could hear the 911 operator and so the 911 operator could hear them. It would be VERY important to me not to be seen as a threat from any side.

well, you do know what they say about assuming.... lol
I think Limatunes has said it pretty good, try to establish outside comms, make sure they know who and where you are, sit tight, and wait...
I am not going hunting as I have already filled my tag for BGs, but if he comes my way...
I will back up my class mate - room has two doors,
(classmate is a LEO- we have discussed some such possibilities... and lets just say I won't have to hit him over the head to borrow his bug)
if the assumption is made then I use my F/S 1911 instead of his .38....

I agree that making the 911 call and identifying yourself while having your weapon drawn, is a good option. But with the Adrenaline rush of the situation(tunnel vision) and the fact that you are answering/repeating ridiculous questions from the 911 operator--presents a pretty impaired ability to respond to anything.
I guess the problem that I have is, most of my training doesn't involve handling a cell phone at the same time as handling a weapon. How do you train for that?
"...Far better it is to dare mighty things....than to take rank with those poor spirits who...knows not victory nor defeat." Theordore Roosevelt
I have an "identification" that I announce. I have command voice, and the ability and the willingness to "direct" folks, physically, when necessary. If I have seen someone shot, I would try to close. This may mean a variety of things, but is in no way a charge, gun in hand down a hall. I'm a confused guy, trying to figure out what's happening.........
Hint: if you're on the phone, your attention isn't where it needs to be. You take care of business, then make the report. EMS personnel don't talk on the radio while they are shooting, or treating an emergent patient. Learn the lesson there- this isn't CPR, where you call first. If you can call, things aren't emergent, and you aren't in danger.
Do some ride-alongs with your local LE & EMS, if you can. See how they operate and how they react to peoples' varying demeanors.
Seek cover, pull charging handle to the rear and observe for... ups wrong scenario.
Seek cover, get your bearings as to where you are, assess who is around you (are they a threat?), decide if it is best to call 911 or E&E out of the area ASAP.
If staying put, tell everyone to shut up / be quiet so you don't give up your position. When barricading, make sure doors are sturdy / have locks that could withstand heavy pounding by a maniac trying to get in. Flip over some desks to use as cover for a firing position. Turn off the lights and tell everyone to put their cellphones in vibrate mode.
When moving, do not unholster until a threat materializes or you will become / be seen as the threat. Move in bounds, from covered positon to covered position - look for your next covered position before you actually leave the one you are at.
If you have to shoot, shoot, then reholster. Make a mental note of what happened and keep moving (you don't know how many shooters are involved). Report what happened to LE ASAP when you are out of danger.
There are too many variables involved for this type of scenario, these are the best options I could think of.
Nothing says you have to be obvious about drawing your weapon. I would not try to hunt down the shooter, for the reasons you already listed, but my weapon will be in my hand, shielded from view by my backpack or jacket. If you are certain enough that you were hearing gunshots to draw, the rest of the class probably will not be paying attention to you.
Depending on the size of the class-room and it's shape, and assuming there is only one exit, I may stay crouched between the seat rows or move behind a podium / desk. Ideally, I would want to be somewhere out of direct view from the doorway, and with a clear firing lane and good backdrop on anyone coming in.
At first opportunity, my other hand is going for my cell phone and calling 911, on speakerphone. I will tell the operator that I am armed and give them a description of myself, where I am, and what is happening, while keeping a close eye on the door. I like the idea of taking out my CHL too, just in case, but I'm not gonna flash it around.
If that door opens, my first response is to avoid being seen until I can determine who opened it. If it's a fleeing student or LEO, I stay where I am, with my weapon drawn and concealed. If the guy has a gun, he better not point it at anyone. If he opens fire, so will I.
It may sound a bit cold to wait until he shoots somebody before making myself known, but that's the only I see to ensure that he's not another CHL-holder doing something foolish. Sad to say, but 1 dead or wounded is better than 60, or god forbid, shooting the wrong guy.
If you have a problem with handling your cell phone and your gun than just put it on speaker phone and drop it on the floor. Those mics have good pick up and that way you have a recorded record of what took place in that room. If you are too shaken up to answer questions, well, don't answer them. Concentrate on what's going on and sometimes talking through things is good. Talking helps your brain go back into action for some people.. Talking through things like, "I'm finding cover, I'm turning over a desk..." might actually help you to get up and do those things. Like I said, even if you have to drop your phone on the floor or give it to someone next to you and tell THEM to report every single thing to the operator and let them deal with the questions, then do that.
I'm defiantly making sure I have that outside connection though to make sure no LEO comes busting in the room thinking I'm a bad guy. The last thing I want to have happen is get in a fire fight with the good guys because they weren't informed.

Maybe it would be a little easier to fortify your room and wait for him if you didn't know any of the people being killed down the hall but it would be almost impossible for me and maybe most people to sit and wait if it were my friends, classmates, maybe my girlfriend (it is college) getting killed. These tactical "what if" questions can't answer the emotional aspects of something like this happening. Truth is nobody really knows unless it happens to them.

If you were there at Tech, the worst case scenareo is that you do nothing at all and 30 people die (most likely, you among them).
If you panic and start shooting when you see a gun, you may have just killed an innocent.
If you wait until you know the guy with the gun is the active shooter, someone may as you stated die but you will probably save a lot of people who otherwise would be dead.
I may skip the cell phone though. I read where the mind tries to finish everything it starts and under stress you may try to continue talking to 911 when you should be concentrating all your efforts on shooting the bad guy.
This is another one of those unfair situations where you have an extremely small window of time to make a decision and regardless of what you do, it could go very well or very badly.
fortiter in re, suaviter in modo (resolutely in action, gently in manner).
Here's the thing- this was over in roughly 120 seconds, between the time LE encountered the locked doors, and their entry. If you're talking, you aren't "acting" enough.
If you decide to intervene, you'll either have to have an "official capacity", or be able and willing to assume one. Act or don't act. But "acting" means shooting now. If you don't feel confident- don't do it.
We can change the scenario to your finding someone whose leg is cut off and spurting blood. What do you do? You don't get your phone. 1) make sure whatever took off their leg won't take off yours,and 2) control the bleed. Nothing else, until you've controlled the situation. Circumstances are different, outcomes are the same. Scream out (Command Voice) "Call 911!", if you want, but if you're in real danger, running your gun will more than occupy you.
Talking to dispatch is what you do when things are secure. If the shooter is gone, and you've secured the entrance, absolutely, call in a report.
As far as accidentally engaging another sheepdog doing the same as I am, I think the hint would be when the "other" shooter started taking shots at innocent folks. I think that were it me, I'd go for #4.
Assuming it was legal for me to be armed in the first place in the classroom as was the situation when I was a senior at BAMA in the 1970s. All my buddies in Army ROTC had CCWs and we all carried nearly all the time. I was working full time as an armed security guard so my weapon of choice (we had to provide our own weapon) was a S&W M19 .357mag with a 4" BBL. I carried that gun for many years even after I graduated. Any such wolf trying this garbage at the UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA while I was there would have been shredded by armed students in platoon strength and moving in coordinated fire teams with a real Airborne Ranger in command. Better than what the cops could have produced at that time.
Former Army Infantry Captain; 28 yrs as an NRA Certified Instructor; NRA Patron Life; Avid practitioner of the martial art: KLIK-PAO.
No room clearing for me. I would first block any doors comming into the room. I would call 911 and identify my self and at the same time I would get the people in one area out of the line of fire. I would also check for any one else who might be carrying and elimanate the chance of getting shot. I would pull my gun and keep it out of sight while still on the cell phone giveing updates Now it's a case of waiting for the bad guy.

Sunday, 9/11/11
"These are our few live seasons. Let us live them as purely as we can, in the present."
— Annie Dillard (Pilgrim at Tinker Creek)
I am sure we all remember where we were the moment we heard about the events on 9/11/01. On that day my Dad was away in D.C. on business and happened to be right across the street from the Pentagon when the second series of attacks occurred. He has had meetings before in the Pentagon and at the time, I remember wondering immediately where he was and being immediately relieved to know that he was fine. There will be many opportunities and incentives to dwell on the 10th anniversary of 9/11 and all the events that have sprung from the tragedy of one day, but I want to say that at the very least, this day affords me a chance to look around and be grateful for what this country, and this city has given me.
Gratitude, I think, should inspire action. CrossFit is not just about fitness, it's about living your life to the fullest. I hope this is a place where you all can feel that that is a possibility every day. I'm sincerely grateful to be a witness to it.
Thank you so much to everyone who came out to watch us on Saturday – and CONGRATS to Melanie Griffin and Todd Lane, Chris Santaniello and his amazing sister Meghan for making it into the final round of competitors.
Are you feeling a little inspired to train after looking at all the great pictures from Cathryn on Facebook? Come hang out with us tomorrow at CrossFit 1Force's GRAND OPENING from 10am-1pm tomorrow (Sunday). We'll be meeting at the gym at 9am. If you want to go, meet us there and if you can drive, please bring your car! There will be a BBQ, a workout with LOTS of equipment you've probably never used, CF swag and a tribute to the anniversary of 9/11.

Chinese cooking, like most of Asia, focuses first on a starch like rice or noodles, then adds an accompaniment of meat or seafood, rather than meat first, starch and vegetables second, as found in European-influenced cuisines. Recipes in China are as diverse as the language, with its 80,000 characters, and Chinese immigrants have brought this complex culinary heritage to almost every region of the world.

tangerine peel
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3/4 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
1/3 cup orange juice

3. Place a wok over high heat until hot. Add 2 tablespoons oil, swirling to coat sides. Add chiles and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Add beef and stir-fry until barely pink, about 2 minutes. Remove the beef and chiles from the wok.
4. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil to wok, swirling to coat sides. Add tangerine peel and onion; stir-fry for 1 minute. Add sauce and cook, Stirring, until sauce boils and thickens.
5. Return beef and chiles to wok and cook until heated through. Remove to a serving plate and garnish with orange slices.

Single Papasan cushion (polyester filling - 50", fits 46" papasan frame). All prices include shipping.
Go to Fabrics to place your order.Papasans Unlimited offers three types of single papasan cushions suitable for the standard 46" single papasan frame. Theres the Deluxe 50" style as detailed on this page, the Tufted 48" style, and the Tufted 52" Style. In addition, we have two categories of fabrics available for our Deluxe styles of papasan cushions. The Standard Range and Premium Range, with our Premium range costing $40.00 to $60.00 per papasan cushion extra than the price displayed on this page.We have a great selection of fabrics. Should wish to provide your own fabric or are seeking a specific fabric which we do not have displayed then view our alternative fabric options.
Things you should know about our Deluxe Papasan cushions
Single papasan cushions feel really good when filled to at least 8 inches thick, which means that you wont feel the rattan papasan frame beneath the cushion. Because we place only 12 buttons in the single papasan cushions, there is plenty of space inside the cushion to allow for the extra filling and and achieve at least 8 inches in thickness.Our cushions are oversized, ie. they measure 50 inches in diameter when fully stuffed and laid out flat. This size easily fits the standard 46 inch diameter single papasan frame (46 inches is the diameter measurement of the dish frame directly across, without allowing for the curvature/depth of the dish). These papasan cushions are large enough to cover the edge of the dish, making them even more comfortable and inviting. Some fabrics may require an additional seam across the face of your cushion - we indicate which fabrics these are on the relevant fabric page. Please note that any additional seam is barely noticeable, as the seam is placed along a row of buttons, where the cushion naturally creases once it is in the chair. The filling inside your papasan cushion is compression resistent polyester. It is light weight, and an excellent product for papasan cushions.Our papasan cushions are reversible ie. can be turned over, and if you purchase a cushion with velcro tags - which are listed separately on our products page, then these tags can easily be taken off and placed on the other side - by looping over the buttons. They are very useful because they secure your papasan cushion to the frame. Price includes cushion being fully stuffed and delivered to you with either UPS or FedEx, within continental USA. We e-mail you with tracking details once items are dispatched - within 10 - 15 working days of receiving your order. If ordering frame with cushion, then cushion and frame will be delivered together, by general carrier - tracking information is e-mailed to you upon dispatch (within 10 - 15 working days), and driver is always instructed to make contact at least one day in advance to arrange a mutually suitable drop off time. Be sure to check out why our papasan cushions are so great and what our customers are saying about our products and service. If wishing to purchase papasan cushion AND papasan frame, then view or single papasan frames.
