I ate it for lunch and dinner today. It's that good.
One draw back:
You're going to have to remove the fat from the chicken. It's gross. It's gross doing it and it's gross eating it.
Crockpot Chinese Chicken
- 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 2 Tbsp ketchup
- 1/3 cup cold water
- 2 Tbsp corn starch
- 16 oz. frozen broccoli
- cooked brown rice, for serving
Spray your crockpot with non-stick cooking spray. Trim all the extra fat off of the chicken thighs and cut them into bite size pieces. Add the chicken to the crockpot.
Mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, ground ginger and ketchup together and add it to the crockpot. Set it on high for 3 1/2 hours or low for 7 hours.
I made my rice about 3 hours into it. I made a corn starch slurry with the water and corn starch and added that to the crockpot at this point. I set the rice to the side when it was done and then blanched the frozen broccoli in some boiling water for about three minutes. I added the broccoli to the chicken to coat it with the sauce.

Ryan Hunter-Reay
Another win. I lost count of how many that is now but it is very impressive for Ryan. Just think, in 2009 he almost didn't have a ride. Now look at him. Points lead and looking in great shape.
Charlie Kimball
A statement race for Charlie Kimball. He had that amazing overtake on Pagenaud and TK in turn 3, and capped off with a P2 finish. We need to see this more on a week to week basis.
Mike Conway
Maybe I should write negative more often, because when I do, I end up looking like a clown when the person does the exact opposite of what I wrote. Well done to Conway. Keep an eye for a blog this week on America's economy..........
RHR wins, Kimball finishes second, Newgarden was looking great until getting boned by Pagenaud. All on Canadian soil. But no matter, a great way to cap off Independence Day. Go 'Merica.
The Death Star
No Dario, Dixon, Power, Briscoe, and Rahal in the top-ten. 10 different teams in the top-ten. Tally one for the Rebellion.
James Hinchcliffe
Another hit in the championship. Hinch has some work to do now. Equally painful because he had a top-five car but mechanical issue cost him. Hinch fans will be once again in full support in Edmonton.
Nice upgrades.....
Sebastien Bourdais
Yeah it was a bummer to be taken out, but who are you to call the rest of the field "idiots"? Especially since you blamed the wrong man for your shortcomings. That really made you look like an idiot. I don't mind a driver be outspoken, but get the facts straight first.
Cone of Shame
Simon Pagenaud
I am trying to figure out which is worse: Simon Pagenaud trying to squeeze Newgarden into the wall, which would have inevitably caused an accident, or Simon Pagenaud trying to figure out why what he did was considered wrong. Either way, Simon, you just got coned.
Let me know what you think.

Former Michigan coach Lloyd Carr spoke to the Montgomery (Ala.) Touchdown Club on Tuesday night and offered his opinion that the announced movement for 2011 won't be the last of conference expansion.
"There are lots of changes ahead," said Carr, who coached the Wolverines from 1995-2007. "The Big 12 loses Colorado and Nebraska, so you know something is going to happen there," Carr told the Montgomery Advertiser. "I think we're entering a new era of expansion. What we saw last year, I just think (conference expansion) is not over."
One conference he thinks will add members is the Big Ten to reach 16 teams and one likely addition will be Notre Dame, which has until now sworn off changing from football independence.
"The way college football is evolving, I think there is going to be great pressure on Notre Dame (to join a conference) if they want to be a factor in the national picture going forward," Carr said.

Bird Conservation
Loggerhead Shrike Survey
Download the Loggerhead Shrike Survey Form (Requires Adobe Acrobat Reader).
Also known as Butcherbirds for their habit of impaling their prey, loggerhead shrikes are present year round throughout Georgia and surrounding states. While some of these birds breed locally, many migrate north to nest. Both local and migratory populations are declining quickly (4.7% annual decline in the Eastern U.S.) and many migrant populations are listed as threatened or endangered. Georgia's shrikes are faring poorly as well (see BBS trends below), however we still have a good opportunity to conserve this species in much of the southeast if we can better understand the reasons for population declines.
Shrikes are usually found in old field/pasture habitats often hunting along roadsides, though they also use mature longleaf pine savanna. Reasons for their decline are nebulous, but may be tied to changes in land use, pesticides, car strikes (they often fly low across roads) or high nest predation rates (due to their habitat of nesting in linear fencerows). Most puzzling is an apparent abundance of seemingly unoccupied suitable habitat. This study is designed to get at some of these questions by more precisely identifying their habitat needs.
Tips on Identification
Make sure you get the right guy. Beginners can mistake mockingbirds for shrikes. If in doubt, make sure you get a good look at the bird before proceeding. If there is any doubt about the birds identity don't fill out a datasheet. It is better to miss a few records than pollute the dataset with mistaken identities.

Boxer 'Macho' Camacho dies in Puerto Rico
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Hector "Macho" Camacho was a brash fighter with a mean jab and an aggressive style, launching himself furiously against some of the biggest names in boxing.
And his bad-boy persona was not entirely an act, with a history of legal scrapes that began in his teens and continued throughout his life.
The man who once starred at the pinnacle of boxing, winning several world titles, died Saturday after being ambushed in a parking lot back in the Puerto Rican town of Bayamon where he was born.
Packets of cocaine were found in the car in which he was shot.
Camacho, 50, left behind a reputation for flamboyance — leading fans in cheers of "It's Macho time!" before fights — and for fearsome skills as one of the top fighters of his generation.
"He excited boxing fans around the world with his inimitable style," promoter Don King said.
Camacho fought professionally for three decades, from his humble debut against David Brown at New York's Felt Forum in 1980 to an equally forgettable swansong against Saul Duran in 2010 in Kissimmee, Fla.
In between, he fought some of the biggest stars spanning two eras, including Sugar Ray Leonard, Felix Trinidad, Oscar De La Hoya and Roberto Duran.
"Hector was a fighter who brought a lot of excitement to boxing," said Ed Brophy, executive director of International the Boxing Hall of Fame.
"He was a good champion. Roberto Duran is kind of in a class of his own, but Hector surely was an exciting fighter that gave his all to the sport."
Doctors pronounced Camacho dead Saturday after he was removed from life support at his family's direction. He never regained consciousness after at least one gunman crept up to the car in a darkened parking lot and opened fire.
No arrests and have been made, and authorities have not revealed many details beyond that police found cocaine in the car and that the boxer and his friend, who was killed at the scene, had no idea the attack was coming.

Because they capture so much color, these Superduos are hard to describe. The crystal violet base is covered partially with an iridescent coating, which shines through the uncoated portion of the bead. Shifting as the light moves, they reflect jewel tones of purple, magenta, olive and grey-silver. With two .8mm holes, Tuff Cord #2, Superlon D or Micro C-Lon will easily go through twice to ladder or weave.

St. Tammany Parish Agency Owner Served with Cease and Desist Order and Summary Suspension
Michael Neely, a property and casualty producer and owner of Mike Neely Insurance Agency, L.L.C., is alleged to have misappropriated thousands of dollars in insurance premium.
According to investigators, Neely accepted a check for $9,824 from St. Tammany Parish Recreation District #4 for the purchase of property and casualty insurance. Investigators say Neely failed to actually purchase the insurance coverage.
Authorities say he later refunded the premium to the recreation district.
Neely faces revocation of his insurance producer license as well as a possible fine imposed by the commissioner of insurance.
Alicia Neely, an employee of Mike Neely Insurance Agency, was also served with a cease and desist order for operating as an insurance agent without a valid insurance producer license. Michael Neely and Alicia Neely have 30 days from the time of service to request an administrative appeal or the above actions will become final.
Insurance Commissioner Jim Donelon urges consumers who feel uneasy about any insurance related transaction to call the Department of Insurance Fraud Division at 225-342-4956 or 1-800-259-5300. If callers do not want their names used, they can request that their involvement be kept confidential.

Berkshire Hathaway has reported insurance-underwriting earnings of US$306 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 ending Dec. 31, 2015, up from US$191 million in the same quarter in 2014.
However, for the full-year 2015, earnings were US$1.162 billion, down from US$1.692 billion in 2014, the Omaha, NE.-based company said in a press release on Saturday. Insurance premiums earned were US$41.294 billion in 2015, comparable to US$41.253 billion in 2014.
For the company's railroad, utilities and energy businesses, fourth quarter 2015 earnings were US$1.507 billion, from US$1.552 billion in Q4 2014. Full-year earnings for these businesses were up from US$5.751 billion in 2014 to US$6.380 billion last year.
Berkshire Hathaway is a holding company owning subsidiaries that engage in various business activities, including insurance and reinsurance, utilities and energy, freight rail transportation, finance, manufacturing, retailing and services.
For the fourth quarter of 2015, operating earnings were up to US$4.673 billion from US$3.963 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014. Full-year operating earnings for 2015 were US$17.358 billion, up from US$16.551 billion in 2014. Net earnings attributable to Berkshire shareholders in Q4 2015 were US$5.478 billion, from US$4.155 billion in Q4 2014.
Earnings from "other businesses and miscellaneous income/expense" were US$1.827 billion in Q4 2015, compared to US$1.340 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014, the release noted. For the full year, earnings were US$6.091 billion in 2015 and US$5,566 billion in 2014. Insurance float – the net liabilities assumed under insurance contracts – was approximately US$88 billion at Dec. 31, 2015.
Last month, Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance (BHSI) announced that it is offering claims-made liability in Canada for professionals facing allegations of negligence, misleading statements and breach of duty, among other things. The coverage – dubbed Professional First Miscellaneous Professional Liability – will cover professionals and professional firms.
BHSI announced its entry into the Canadian market in January 2015.

Residency and Fellowship
The Section of Vascular Surgery at the University of Michigan offers two different pathways for surgical training: a five-year Integrated Vascular Surgical Residency, and a two-year Fellowship Program.
What's special about surgical training at Michigan?
Where some programs excel in only one or two areas, our faculty is made up of surgeons and researchers with a wealth of expertise in every major subspecialty of vascular surgery. They teach traditional and cutting-edge treatments for aneurysmal and occlusive diseases of the arterial system, venous disease and coagulation issues, carotid endarterectomy, vertebral system surgery, mesenteric and renal ischemia repair, and more. From traditional open vascular repair to the latest in minimally invasive endovascular techniques, it is all covered during training.
Because of this clinical depth, a trainee can expect to perform a wide range of procedures during their time in the program. It is not uncommon for our residents to come back from a national conference and relate how amazed their peers in other programs were when they told them about their case load at the University of Michigan.
Aside from their clinical and technical skills, our faculty are also leaders in the field of vascular disease research, constantly working to discover and improve upon new treatments in all areas of vascular surgery, including cerebrovascular disorders, aortic aneurysm pathogensis and treatments, ischemic reperfusion injuries, venous thrombosis development and resolution, computational flow analysis, and new endovascular techniques. Between them, our faculty has been awarded several RO1 grants, as well as other generous funding.
In addition to the people that make our program special, we also have an amazing facility in the Cardiovascular Center, the new 425,000 square foot, $215 million building that includes a 24-bed surgical post-procedure ICU, 24 vascular general/moderate care beds, nine cardiac procedure rooms, four cardiac surgery operating rooms, two vascular surgery operating rooms, two general thoracic operating rooms, two endovascular procedure labs and 36 clinic exam rooms.
In this program, we are not content to just create competent vascular surgeons. We want to train the future leaders of the field–both the academically-minded and those wishing to go into private practice. Excellence is mandatory for a prospective trainee in this program, as we demand much from our residents and fellows. Along these lines, we stress from the beginning that "surgery is not a contact sport," as Dr. Stanley says. Here, we expect everyone in our section to act with respect towards their colleagues, patients, and support staff.
If you are a qualified candidate and think you have what it takes to be one of "the Leaders and the Best" in vascular surgery, then we want to hear from you.

Citation: Yuan, J.S., Gealy, D.R., Stoming, T., Stewart Jr., C. 2006. Identification of genes involved in cold resistance during seed germination and postgermination of rice using comparative proteomics and genomics [abstract]. Proceedings American Society of Plant Biologists Annual Meeting. Paper No. P09042. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the low temperature germinability is important in expanding the niche of cereal crops. US red rice accessions provide an excellent source of new alleles for improving cultivated rice yield, quality, stress tolerance, and disease resistance. Here we present comparative proteomics and genomics data identifying gene candidates involved in low temperature germinability that may be useful in crop improvement. US red rice accessions exhibit a diverse range of phenotypes in low temperature germinability and postgermination cold tolerance. Two red rice accessions were selected for further genomics and proteomics studies because of their extreme phenotypes. US red rice accession 16B was chosen as a cold resistant line and accession 18A was chosen as a cold sensitive line. 2D-DIGE technique was employed to profile the differential protein expression in the embryo of 16B vs. 18A after two hours of cold treatment. The 2D-DIGE images were analyzed for protein differential expression and candidate proteins are identified by MALDI-TOF MS for peptide fingerprinting. Forty seven percent of the spots can be identified with candidate proteins, among which are an NAD/NADP-dependent oxidoreductase, a heat shock protein, an ABA induced protein, and others. Microarray experiments were also carried out to compare the gene expression pattern of 16B,18A and the Nipponbare control after cold treatment. Many genes regulated by GA or ABA pathways were found to be differentially expressed among the different red rice accessions after cold treatment. In combination, genomics and proteomics approaches rendered a group of gene- and protein-candidates that might be involved in cold tolerance in the germination and postgermination developmental stages.

Does this sound like your topic?
Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
We hired a contractor (Uri of OU Construction) to remodel our bathroom about a year ago and he had a guy do the demo work. He continually asked for money stating that he would need it for the next phase of the project but he only did demo and put up drywall. He then got upset when I hired a plumber to add a second shower head to the bathroom and said that because we hired a different guy and didn't give him the added job that he would not be returning unless we paid him to remove what was done then pay him to do the job that someone else had already done. We explained that we won't be paying him to do the shower head. $8700 later we still have no bathroom. He also asked to be released from contract in exchange for finishing the vanity area. We said no, so we still have no master bath.
In my opinion your issues are too complicated for a simple yes or no action to either question. You should take the time to retain an attorney that has some understanding of construction law matters and disputes between owners and contractors. You should make an appointment with the attorney so you can bring the contract and all documentation concerning the project, including any notes or correspondence. I would recommend you do so as quickly as possible.

The 21-year-old won the Mike Turner Memorial Trophy for most promising young player at Albion last season and was the only Plymouth player to start every league match for the club.
Former England Under-18 international Porter, who has had previous spells at Birmingham & Solihull and Lydney, will challenge Matt Mullan and fellow new recruit Ceri Jones for a starting spot at Sixways next season.
Head Coach Richard Hill said: "George had a superb year in the RFU Championship and played almost every minute for Plymouth.
"He is very much the modern day prop and impressed Tevita Taumoepeau when we faced Albion during the season. He earned real respect off our front row and to get an endorsement off Tevita shows he is a real talent.
"While we are disappointed to see Callum Black leave us this season, we feel George is going to be a very good player for the Warriors and an ideal replacement for him."
Porter, who watched the RFU Championship final at Sixways, admitted he was relishing the prospect of playing top-flight rugby next season at the home of the Warriors.
"It was so exciting to be at Sixways to watch the final and I can't wait to be able to play in front of that kind of atmosphere," he added.
"It's a big opportunity for me at Warriors and I've seen firsthand this season how powerful the pack is.
"Working alongside experienced players such as Matt Mullan and Ceri Jones is something I'm looking forward to and I hope to make my mark.
"I will take some great memories away with me from Plymouth and the chance to develop under the guidance of Graham Dawe has been hugely beneficial. It's a great breeding ground for young players at Brickfields and I wish the club the very best for the future."

5 Ways Traveling Can Inspire A Massive Life Change
Traveling is beneficial in a vast variety of ways. Some people find traveling relaxing and some people travel for the inspiration. As long as you feel fulfillment in traveling, there is no right or wrong reason to travel.
Traveling is one of those things that everybody wants to do but most people don't. They allow even the smallest situation to stop them from going on a life changing trip. Despite certain circumstances, sometimes you just have to make the decision to go to that place you've always wanted to visit. There is a good chance it can change your life. Below, I have listed a few ways that traveling can inspire a massive life change.
1. It can show you that you aren't living where you want
A lot of people will talk negatively about the place that they live. Whether, it is the city, their home, or the environment they are in. Too many people talk down about the place they live but they don't do anything about it. Traveling to new cities, states, or even countries can inspire you to change your location.
It can make you realize you don't like where you live and that you want to live somewhere else. If you have this feeling or if you talk down about where you live, I suggest you travel and see new places.
2. It can produce the idea for a breakthrough in your business
Very often you will hear that, while traveling, a business owner thought of a new product or a ground breaking idea that changed their business dramatically. You even hear that while traveling, people think of ideas and open their own business.
Traveling has a unique way of helping you clear your mind which in turn helps you think more clearly for new ideas. A great example of this is Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks. While traveling in Italy, he noticed there were a high number of coffee bars.
Seeing all of these coffee bars and the community around them, spurred the idea of Starbucks opening up a coffee bar inside of the store. After implementing that idea, Starbucks is now a billion dollar company. If you are at a point in your business where you feel like you are stuck, try taking a trip to a place that you've been wanting to go and see if that helps reignite your creative thinking.
3. It can show you that your job isn't exactly how you imagined it
Traveling to new places has the possibility of showing you that there are more fulfilling jobs out there than just sitting behind a desk. It can show you that there are jobs out there for you that can be fun and exciting. Doing work that you love is a very important aspect to life and has many benefits.
Popular tourism destinations can offer some of the most exciting jobs. Anything from being a tour guide to being a dive instructor on The Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Don't be afraid to look at other employment options when traveling.
4. It can inspire you to pursue your passion
Pursuing your passion is something that most people don't do. It takes courage to pursue your passion and you find happiness in doing something that you want to do. Traveling the world puts things into perspective and can help you gain clarity on what your passion actually is. Being in a breathtaking place has a very interesting way of making you think differently.
It helps bring out all of the creativity inside of you and can help you make the decision to follow your dreams. If you are feeling like you are just going through the motions in your life, take a trip and see how traveling can bring clarity to your life and help you figure out what you should be doing.
5. It provides you with a new perspective on life
One of the most mind-blowing things about traveling to places you've never been before, is the new perspective it gives you on life. It shows you how privileged you are if you come from a country that has a wide variety of resources every couple of blocks.
It can make you appreciate life that much more and it will give you a new outlook on life. Traveling to new places humbles you in many ways and will improve your attitude towards life in general. If you have a negative outlook on life, try traveling to a new place and see how it can dramatically change your perspective on your own life.
"Traveling tends to magnify all human emotions." – Peter Hoeg
If you feel like your life is dull and boring and that you need a change in your life, simply start traveling and soon enough you will figure out what part of your life needs the change. Traveling has changed many things in my life and I know it can change many things in your life too.
What change are you looking for in your life? How will traveling help you find that change?
Starting to Look travelling in a whole new dimension, its like having a new definition of freedom in our lives, where we escape from negative thoughts from around us and enter the world of new ideas, passion & creativity.
Thanks for this great article 🙂
I like that quote about the world is a book and staying at 1 place is reading only one page. Thumbs up! About passion… which is a interesting thing because the word "passion" comes from the Greek verb "to suffer". So basically passion is a personal part of struggling, suffering and sacrifices that leads eventually to "the light". This light is like the "reconnecting" with our authenticity which indeed burned to dead for so many. Great post!
Great post! I love your point about traveling giving you a different perspective and opening doors to do what most people won't do. Unfortunately most people die with their passion inside of them but the courageous individuals will always win the rewards of happiness. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Charlene! Thank you very much for commenting. I appreciate the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed my article! Unfortunately, most people do die with their passion inside of them but my goal is to inspire people to do what they want to do and don't look back!

Thank you so much! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed my article!
Traveling is really a great way to find yourself, and become accustomed and introduced to new cultures. I like that you said that traveling a relaxing can help provide a breakthrough in your business because of the peace of mind and clarity that you may gain, this is the time when most "big ideas" occur. I loved reading this article and I see that I have to get out and start traveling more. Very informative.
Thank you Lawrence! Really appreciate you taking the time to read my article and leave a comment. Traveling can certainly inspire new ideas or new ways of living your life. There are so many upsides to traveling! Even if you don't think of a new idea or find a massive life change while traveling, at least you had the pleasure of seeing a part of the world and having a good time making memories.
Hello Tyler,
Your Fantastic Experience is put here for others to experience the same, though i felt new person whenever i come back home after travelling but after reading your articles answered many questions of mine, in fact few blind spots of mine were clarified, I would love to travel more places in coming year(2016) which can be one of my possible new year resolution, thanks again for posting this tyler !!!!!

Thanks for commenting! Also, thank you for reading my article! Keep traveling! It will definitely keep giving you ideas for content!
"Five Ways……" a super piece!!! Made me think of what I call "vacation haze," i.e., falling in love with each place you travel to & wanting to move there…until you go home & get over it!!! YOU ARE SAYING THE OPPOSITE & GIVE FIVE REASONS WHY! Bravo job here!
So glad you enjoyed my article! Really appreciate your thoughts on it!

CANADA STOCKS-TSX rises, bolstered in part by financials, materials
TORONTO, July 31 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index was higher on Friday, as the heavily-weighted financial and materials stocks rose, offsetting losses among energy names.
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index was up 12.41 points, or 0.09 percent, at 14,395.19 shortly after the open. Only three of the index's 10 main groups were in positive territory. (Reporting by Solarina Ho)

Deal,Draw, or Fold?
So I,m thinkin of buying this 84 1/2 ton pickup with a 300 carbed six and a 4 speed for $500. The Question's go like this: Will this engine pull a car and trailer? What kind of tranny might this be? toploader maybe? I can tell the rearend's definitly a 9".The engine runs like crap right now. sounds like missing cyl. on every other cycle. The guy who owns the ride tells me the timming chain tore some teeth of the gears when his sister was drivin the thing(she's been driving it for 3 years). He goes to put a new chain on it and gets it to run however really rough like, and doesn't know how it ran before when she drove it. My first thought that the valves were bent but with my limited experiance with these motors I'm not sure these engines have the interferance or not. So a new head would cost about $200 and the rest of the truck is probably worth it. I'm also looking to transplant a 302/351 or something in its place eventually. further more, How hard is it to do? Will the tranny bolt into the V8? Motor mounts work? or will drilling the frame and welding new mount brackets be a neccesity?
Final and foremost, Whats the opinion on my ideas?
On a side note, How do i convince the girlfriend that I need yet another vehicle?
First the guy must be yanking your chain, the 240/300 sixes have gears no chain in the cam drive.There is unlikely any interference between valves and pistons with the stock lift and dished piston (more likely a burnt valve). The combo will pull a trailer (I've done it with the same combo in a shortbed model), the tranny is most likely a 3+OD version of the toploader (aluminum case) and any Ford smallblock will bolt up to the bellhousing (they use the same bellhousing pattern). Finally, you might consider building a little more umph into the six, there is plenty of parts available and they can be built extremely stout, Ak Miller built one for a '67 'stang back in the late '60's that turned 12's in the quarter.
[quote]The guy who owns the ride tells me the timming chain tore some teeth of the gears when his sister was drivin the thing (she's been driving it for 3 years). He goes to put a new chain on it and gets it to run however really rough like, and doesn't know how it ran before when she drove it.

Probably just a misunderstanding. There were two cam gears available for service, phenolic and steel. That's most likely explains the loss of teeth.
I would verify cam/ignition timimg and run a compression check on it. It may just be faulty ignition components (Pep Boys) that are causing the loss in performance.
And yes, the 240/300 can be modified for serious HP output.
I agree, the 300-6 Ford is hard to beat. The only thing I've noticed with them is that main bearing noise is common, but I've seen them go forever even with the noise. You should have no problem pulling with it.
According to the guy The compression looked really good(although specific numbers aren't avialable) in all cyl. However, I'm beggining to doubt this guys "mechineckin'" skills. I'm thinking the carb is probably full of crud so I'm betting on at least a rebiuld or replacment. Plugs,wires,ect.. possibly even the cam timming still out of wack. I think its probably still a good deal.
Having owned 300's with the 3+OD, I think I'd look for a V8 powered truck. I have never been able to get better fuel economy and aftermarket stuff, while available is nowhere near as varied.
If the puppy is rust 'n' dent free and it is a Lariat and I had a spare bent eight to fill the hole, I might go back for a second or even third look. $500 is not that hot a deal for what is basically an engineless pickup. The feeling you have about the seller says tons. You are there lookin' an' listenin'.
Trust your instincts.
It is fairly good shape body wise other than a missing wing on the drivers side door. $20 at the nearest salvage yard. Its been hit on the lower side skirt but not so hard that any piant has come off. I do actually have a 302 mod motor for the swap I've been saving just for this occasion. trucks are pretty expensive here because of the city that thinks its smaller than it is, makes every one drive one. Just the other day I looked at a 77' chevy half ton short bed that was dent/rust free with a new motor and was selling for $7000!! I think I'll take the chance and offer 350/400 max
I had an 84 F250 with the 300, Great truck! not fast but it would pull anything. The F250 was available with the 4speed (3sp + granny low), or a 5 speed (4+OD) I think the 150 was too. The 250 was also a forged kingpin axle vs the ball joint type for the 150.
I'd pay 500 for a decent no rust ford pickup sans engine any day.
[ October 10, 2002: Message edited by: Biggarmike ]

If you are using it as a truck like a truck is made to be used, that 300 is a horse! I had one as well and that thing could set the space shuttle in place!
I also had a 84 250 w/ 4speed granny , I had no trouble towing. One thing you might check on the rough running is the distributor gear has a shear pin and some times it shears and the gear slips and the thing runs like crap, been there done that.
The main noise referred to is, I believe, the lash in the gears after they get some wear. I've heard it in several engines and bleed down checks showed tight mains, I remember in older engines that used gears the rattle was pretty common especially with a phenolic gear.
Woodz:I hear ya', but I have a fleet of 20 or so vans that I work on for a ministries, and most of them have the 300-6 Ford. I have noticed that a few that had the "noise" were the gears when checked for backlash (or so I believe). But every one that I took apart had bad main wear compared to the rods. I have seen these motors take some serious abuse, that's what you get when you have college kids from all over the world driving them. We even had to color code all the fluid caps because they added coolant to the oil on more than one occasion!  These motors rank high in my book.
WOW! you guys make a great salesmen, I was a little worried about using it as a daily driver so I can fix up my newest ride. Thanx tremedesly(?) for all responses.

If Wall Street wants to join the "progressive" gentry parade again, as it did in 2008, Republican should encourage them.
But the new rich, particularly the young, tend to be more progressive, or at least gentry liberal.
gentry domination requires allies with a broader social base and their own political power.
The Beltway gentry gets a great deal on government-provided health care—but they think your plan needs cutting.
We see this kind of thing especially in the families of the poorer class of gentry in the country.
However, I have not been able to find out if there are any gentry in the place.
So good was the meeting of modesty in a poor, with courtesy in an honourable person, and gentry I believe in both.
He was daily joined by fresh adherents; by the gentry, officers, and soldiers.
As a whole and for reasons of gentry self-interest, the gentry stood for stability and against change.
The gentry did not so often patronize public balls, but this was an exception.
c.1300, "nobility of rank or birth," from Old French genterise, variant of gentilise "noble birth, gentleness," from gentil (see gentle). Meaning "noble persons" is from 1520s. Earlier in both senses was gentrice (c.1200 as "nobility of character," late 14c. as "noble persons"). In Anglo-Irish, gentry was a name for "the fairies" (1880), and gentle could mean "enchanted" (1823).

Facebook, Apple & Twitter Watering Hole Attack Additional Informations
Update: Some worrying information's at the bottom of the post.
As reported by Ars Technica, the 15th February, Facebook was victim of a watering hole attack, involving a "popular mobile developer Web forum". The attack was using a Java 0day that has been urgently patched, in Oracle Java CPU of first February, by version 7 update 11 and version 6 update 39.
Ars Technica also pointed that the attack had occur during the same timeframe as the hack that exposed cryptographically hashed passwords at Twitter. Also Twitter was encouraging, the first February, users to disable Java in their browsers. 250 000 user accounts was compromised during the Twitter breach.
Four days after the news on Facebook, the 19 February, Reuters also mentioned Apple as a victim of the Oracle Java 0day. The same "popular mobile developer Web forum" was mentioned, but with the precision that this website is a "popular iPhone mobile developer Web forum". People briefed on the case said that hundreds of companies were affected by this Java 0day, including defense contractors.
Another interesting fact is that Apple had blacklist Java Web plug-in, a second time in a month, the 31 January, through an update to Xprotect, the Mac OS X "anti-malware" system. Surely a reaction the breach reported in the press 19 days later.
Today, Ars Technica released the name of the "popular iPhone mobile developer Web forum", aka www.iphonedevsdk.com. Now we can gather some information's related to this watering hole attack.
On urlQuery we can find an interesting submission, the 23 January, who reveal that some Java code was involved during the visit of the web site.
On JSUNPACK we can find another interesting submission, the 22 January, related to the www.iphonedevsdk.com. This submission reveals another website who is min.liveanalytics.org with URL "min.liveanalytics.org/cache.js?1358893681579". The "cache.js" JavaScript was no more present at this date.
liveanalytics.org domain name was created the 8
December October 2012, through Public Domain Registry registrar. All contact information's are hidden behind PrivacyProtect.org. Privacy Protection ensures that private information of domain owners are not published by replacing all the publicly visible contact details with alternate contact information.
But going back on the first urlQuery submission, we can see that www.iphonedevsdk.com website was doing three requests to min.liveanalytics.org website.
First call was to "/cache.js?1358897354865" JavaScript with a date of "Tue, 22 Jan 2013 23:21:31 GMT". "1358897354865" return the number of milliseconds since 1970/01/01.
Second call was to "/jquery.js?ummrznjf" JavaScript with the same date.
Third call was to "empty.htm" with additional parameters who are "empty.htm?id=0&ts=X&n=fp&s=Y". In the following screenshot you will se that X value of ts variable return the number of milliseconds since 1970/01/01. Also in the following screenshot you will see a base64-encoded string:
Decoded this value is quiet interesting:
These kinds of behaviors make me think to a statistic backend like Jsbug, but I don't have enough information's to validate my doubts.
By doing some additional researches on urlQuery, regarding min.liveanalytics.org, we can find a submission dating from the 23 January with one screenshot. And by doing also additional researches on urlQuery, regarding www.iphonedevsdk.com, we can observe that min.liveanalytics.org was down the 24 January.
Now let try other occurrences for www.iphonedevsdk.com or min.liveanalytics.org in search engines & search engines caches. No luck, Google and his cache are not revealing any information's, same for Bing and other popular search engines. But WayBack Machine is providing a cached version of www.iphonedevsdk.com for the 15 January, and, and you got it Google Chrome is presenting a nice warning screen regarding min.liveanalytics.org 😉
It is confirming us that this website was hosting some malware and that www.iphonedevsdk.com was including JavaScript calls to min.liveanalytics.org the 15 January, date of the Wayback Machine capture. If you take a look at the source code of cached version of www.iphonedevsdk.com you can see this, a nice JavaScript inclusion.
So we have a timeline associated with this domain:
- Domain name was registered the 8
DecemberOctober with hidden information's
- WayBack Machine cached version of 7 December is not infected.
- WayBack Machine report us that the website was infected the 15 January
- urlQuery & JSUNPACK report us that the website was up the 22/23 January
- urlQuery report us that the website was down the 24 January
Another interesting timeline is the Oracle Java patch and life cycle:
- 11 December 2012: Oracle release, through a CPU, Java SE 7 Update 10 who introduced the levels of security for applet execution.
- 13 January 2013: Oracle release an alert and update, Java SE 7 Update 11, for a Java 0day able to bypass the security manager.
- 1 February 2013: Oracle release, through an out-of-band CPU, Java SE 7 Update 13, in order to fix a 0day exploited in the wild.
As you can see, Java SE 7 Update 10, released the 11 December, has introduce the levels of security ("Medium" by default) and bunch of pop-ups, who are warning you about the trust of an applet. Java SE 7 Update 11, released the 13 January, has force the level of security from "Medium" to "High". With the "High" setting, the user is always prompted before any unsigned Java applet or Java Web Start application is run.
What I can suppose regarding these timelines:
- First, the victims of this watering hole campaign didn't have potentially updated to the latest version.
- Second, the victims of this watering hole campaign did have potentially update to JSE 7U11, but have not change the default security level from "Medium" to "High", despite all the history in Java 0days and advises of security experts.
- Third, the victims, have potentially detect the attack when JSE 7U13 was out, because the "High" security level shown them some unusual applet execution on the "popular iPhone mobile developer Web forum".
Was this campaign a highly targeted attack? I don't think so, why because Oracle Java has a long history of 0days, and serious companies like Twitter, Facebook and Apple should have disable Java Web Start application for non trusted applets since a while.
F-Secure has provide in a blog post 2 other domain names involved in the Facebook, Apple and Twitter compromise, this domain name are:
- cloudbox-storage.com
- digitalinsight-ltd.com
By investigating on these domain names, I found some worrying information's. If these information's are confirmed then the story is complete different and could have a bigger impact.
"digitalinsight-ltd.com" domain name was registered the 2012-03-22. By doing some Google dorks we can find these informations:
A post on Fedoraforum.org, dating from 2012-07-14 mentioning this domain name… and a user of the forum wonder why a JavaScript inclusion is done to this domain.
If you take a look on Wayback Machine, you can find a cached version from 2012-07-12, that makes your Google Chrome screaming….
And what can we find in the source code of the FedoraForum webpage!!!!! A similar JavaScript inclusion as for www.iphonedevsdk.com also calling a "cache.js" script….
We can also found a JSUNPACK submission, dating from 2012-10-22 with same source code….
And we can find some French guys complaining on a forum regarding a JavaScript inclusion to the same domain and script…. the 2012-09-29

Boeing-job.com Campaign and Adobe Flash 0days Additional Informations
The 7 February, Adobe has issue security bulletin APSB13-04 for Adobe Flash Player, in order address two vulnerabilities, CVE-2013-0633 and CVE-2013-0634, exploited in the wild.
CVE-2013-0633 (CVSS base score of 9.3) is exploited by tricking a Windows user to open a Microsoft Word document containing a malicious Flash content. CVE-2013-0634 (CVSS base score of 9.3) is exploited by tricking an Apple OS X user to open a web page, containing a malicious Flash content, through Firefox or Safari. But this vulnerability is also exploited by tricking a Windows user to open a Microsoft Word document containing a malicious Flash content.
Affected products are :
- Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.146 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh
- Adobe Flash Player 188.8.131.521 and earlier versions for Linux
- Adobe Flash Player 184.108.40.206 and earlier versions for Android 4.x
- Adobe Flash Player 220.127.116.11 and earlier versions for Android 3.x and 2.x
These vulnerabilities were discovered exploited in the wild:
- For CVE-2013-0633, by Sergey Golovanov and Alexander Polyakov of Kaspersky Labs
- For CVE-2013-0634, by Shadowserver Foundation, MITRE and Lockheed Martin CIRT
As described by Alienvault Labs and by FireEye, the vulnerabilities were exploited through spear phishing email messages targeting several industries including the aerospace one. One of the e-email attached file was using the 2013 IEEE Aerospace Conference schedule, and another reported sample was related to online payroll system of ADP US company.
Detailed analysis have been provided by Alienvault Labs, FireEye and Malware Must Die. All the analysis reported the following domain name ieee[.]boeing-job[.]com as C&C server.
boeing-job[.]com domain name was registered the 22 January 2013, through GoDaddy, with fake registration information's.
The 5 February http://ieee[.]boeing-job[.]com sub domain was pointing to IP 220.127.116.11, AS15003 in US.
The 6 February http://boeing-job[.]com was pointing to IP 188.8.131.52, AS26496 in US, parking web page of GoDaddy.
But, they're is always a but, if you take a look in Google you can find the IP address who was used for www.boeing-job[.]com.
This sub domain was pointing to a legit website http://www[.]grupo-gestion[.]com[.]ar, IP 184.108.40.206, AS16814 in Argentina.
By searching on urlQuery, you can find a submission, the 5 February, with this IP. And suprise this submission is regarding a "record.doc" document located in a "/adp/" directory. So we have the ADP word document. Also urlQuery is reporting an alert "FILE-OFFICE Microsoft Office Word with embedded Flash file transfer" regarding the "record.doc" document.
Now let analyze further this server used in the spear phishing campaign. By doing some researches on Google, you will quickly find that weak tools are present on the server and that these tools are freely accessible from Internet…. After some further analysis, we can find that an old default XAMPP installation is present on this server, and that bad guys have use this weakness in order to install PHP backdoor. The PHP backdoor were also not protected giving full access to the server.
The related "/adp/" directory is empty of the "record.doc" file and most of the server seem to have been cleaned.
But, I discovered an interesting "/jobs/" directory containing a well-known tool, JSbug statistics backend, used in previous drive-by attacks campaign. The contents of the backend allow us to see that a campaign was started since the 22 January by using www.boeing-job[.]com domain name.
Also, what is interesting, is that the XAMPP Apache log files were accessible from Internet, without restrictions.
By doing some log analysis we can find the following information's:
- "record.doc" file size was 563200 bytes.
- First, 200 Apache return code, access to "/adp/record.doc" file was recorded the 05/Feb/2013:07:12:24 -0300.
- "/adp/record.doc" file was removed from the server around the 08/Feb/2013 09:23:24 -0300.
- Around 300 accesses on the "record.doc" files were done during this timeframe. 42 the 5 February, 7 the 6 February, 89 the 7 February and 161 the 8 February.
- A PHP backdoor was present on the server since the 05/Nov/2012 and used multiple times.
- A second PHP backdoor was uploaded on the server the 8 February, at 08/Feb/2013 02:25:25 -0300 (surely used to remove the record.doc file). Why not using the first PHP backdoor ? Surely cause you are not the guy who has deposit the "record.doc" file and you don't know the existence of the first PHP backdoor.
- The server was scanned during two days with Acunetix, starting the 02/Feb/2013 18:25:45 -0300
Additional analysis of the discovered "/jobs/" and JSbug backend directory provide the following interesting information's:
- The "/jobs/" directory was first seen the 22/Jan/2013 06:12:44 -0300
- Installation of JSBug backend was done the 22/Jan/2013 06:13:16 -0300
- Additional files were installed in the "/jobs/" directory like "img/jquery-1.8.3.min.js", "img/logo.gif", "check.php", "download.htm", "download.php", "img/download.css", "img/ff_step1.png", "img/ie_step3.png", "img/ff_step2.png" and "NProtect.exe". "check.php", "download.htm", "NProtect.exe" and "download.php" are no more present on the server.
By analysing the file remaining on the server, and used in a previous attack, who has start the 22 January, we can see the following files who reveal that a spear phishing campaign was done against Boeing employees, in order to trick them to install the "NProtect.exe" malware.

Forgotten Watering Hole Attacks On Space Foundation and RSF Chinese
As I announced you on Twitter, this blog post will present targeted attacks who have start mid-September and wasn't discussed or presented in public. These attacks have end around mid-October.
My next post will cover the targeted attacks against RSF-chinese.org and spacefoundation.orgtwitpic.com/bqgmie
— Eric Romang (@eromang) Décembre 29, 2012
A web site "arpeggio8.com", hosted on 22.214.171.124 in US, was compromised in order to be used in a watering hole attack against Space Foundation and RSF Chinese.
The Space Foundation is a nonprofit organization that supports the global space industry through information and education programs. It is a resource for the entire space community – industry, national security organizations, civil space agencies, private space companies and the military around the world. It also supports educators, students and journalists with information and education programs.
Reporters Without Borders (RWB) is a French-based international non-governmental organization that advocates freedom of the press and freedom of information. Reporters Without Borders is also known as RSF, and RSF Chinese is a dedicated web site for Chinese news in Chinese language.
The watering hole attack was done through different files and by a dedicated centralized backend named "Jsbug".
Description of the watering hole attack
Space Foundation and RSF Chinese web sites had they're code a malicious javascript inclusion calling "http://www.arpeggio8.com/count/count.php".
"rsf.php" script only provide content if parameter "id=1024" is present. This script load through an iframe call "ie.html" file. "rsf.php" is the equivalent of "exploit.html" in the CVE-2012-4969 0day found in mid-September.
"ie.html" file is the equivalent of "Protect.html" in the CVE-2012-4969 0day found in mid-September, but here no Flash file is involved to do the heap spray. "ie.html" file is containing a packed javascript code how will do the heap spray and trigger the vulnerability. Pastebin encoded version and decoded version.
If Windows XP is used, and language is "en-us", "zh-cn", "zh-tw", "ko" or "ja" (hum hum CVE-2012-4792…), then the vulnerability is triggered.
If Windows 7 is used and Java 6 is installed, then the vulnerability is triggered. A spray base value is provided in the code for Internet Explorer 9 , but "count.php" has filter the targeted browsers.
Once the vulnerability is triggered, "917.exe" (6b4aa596e5a4208371942cdb0e04dfd9) file is installed. This malware is known as "Trojan-Dropper.Win32.Dapato.bscc".
A interesting point regarding "ie.html" file, this file was dating of 19 September.
Some facts regarding CVE-2012-4969 :
- Vulnerability was discovered exploited in the wild, with a Flash variant, the 14 September.
- Metasploit PoC was provided the 17 September.
- Microsoft Security Advisory MSA-2757760 was published the 17 September.
- Microsoft patch was provided in MS12-063 the 21 September.
But you will see, through the next chapter, that the attack has began the 18 September.
"count2.php" script and Jsbug backend usage
"count2.php" script is loaded in any cases for statistics purposes. This script will create and check two cookies "stat_cookie" and "stat_time", gather version of Adobe Flash, presence of Oracle Java and HTTP referrer. All these informations are send back to the same script with parameters.
All these informations are stored in a backend named "Jsbug". This backend is quiet simple, only three menus "Client statistics", "Report" and "Create Exploit". The backend doesn't have any external css or images files, and is typically composed of minimum three PHP scripts.
Login page of the backend is also quiet simplistic, no page title, no text in the page, and this logic of simplicity make it harder to discover through Google searches.
"Client statistics" menu will direct you on a recap page, of all visitors who have load "count2.php", with OS type, browser type and version, version of Adobe Flash, version of Oracle Java, IP address, HTTP referer, number of visits, first visite and last visite date.
In the case of the Space Foundation watering hole attack, the first date are beginning 18 September.
In the case of RSF Chinese watering hole attack, the first date are beginning 19 September.
These attacks have ended around mid-October.
"Report" menu will direct you on a statistics page, of all visitors.
"Create Exploit" menu is a page how will help the attackers to generate they're javascript inclusion code.

Dialogue Institute (Formerly known as Institute of Interfaith Dialog- IID)
Dialogue Institute of the Southwest aims to promote mutual understanding, respect and cooperation among people of diverse faiths and cultures by creating opportunities for direct communication and meaningful shared experiences.
Dialogue Institute grew out of the need to address the question, "How can citizens of the world live in peace and harmony?" The Institute was established in 2002 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
Many participants of the Institute's activities are inspired by the discourse and pioneering dialogue initiatives of the Turkish Muslim scholar, writer and educator Fethullah Gulen. Headquartered in Houston, the Dialogue Institute serves in Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico.
