Hey this is Reuben with Competition Accessories today were taking a look at the Shoei RF1100 this is the replacement for the RF1000. Ive got the RF1000 up here to show you the differences between the two this is the old __ Graphic and I have RF 1100's up here i have matte black this is called the enigma this is the conquer obviously there's other colors and options as well . First of all i wanted to show you the differences between the two helmets between the old RF1000 which is one of Shoeis best selling helmets and the new RF1100. The RF1000 has been a great helmet for a lot of riders for a lot of years and with the RF1100 it takes it one step further. You have a whole other level of ventilation and other features as well if you take a look at them side by side you can take a look and see how much bigger the eye port is its the new shield its the CW1 shield its the same shield they use on the X12 so that's their high end racing helmet . You've got a lot wider of an eye port a lot better peripheral vision and you also have more top to bottom space you'll be able to see better when your down in that tucked position if your riding on the track or really spirited riding your gonna have a lot more vision out of the helmet . The venting is also a lot more aggressive on the RF1100. You have a larger chin bar vent you have very similar vents on the top here, and if you look at the back you have four close able vents and then there is two hidden exhaust vents right behind the neck at the base of the helmet where as the RF1000 only had the exhaust vents under the spoiler as well as the under vents here as well. The shell shape is also significantly improved if you look at the 1000 compared to the 1100 , the 1000 has a sort of round shape helmet with a bolt on plastic spoiler into the actual shell of the helmet and this helmet has Shoeis AIM plus shell which is their advanced integrated matrix plus multi fiber shell material which is basically a composite of carbon fiber, Kevlar and fiber glass and its SNELL 2010 approved obviously as well . So I'm going to move the RF 1000 out of the way I'm going to kind of break it down in the RF1100 take a look at all the features in detail here. So looking at the vents in detail here on the RF1100 they are just a lot more aggressive in their function and their position the chin bar vent is like i said a little bit bigger then the RF1000 its going to direct air up onto the face shield to help reduce fogging. Up at the top you have two vents that are going to draw air down in around the rail and actually channel through the EPS , when we get into the interior of this helmet were going to kind of show you where the air goes and on the back of this helmet you've got four exhaust vents and you can open and close these in any combination you want really customize the helmet air flow your getting through your helmet . The exterior vents here are going to as air rolls over the back of the helmet , the front vents are going to have cool air pushed in and the warm air inside of the helmet is going to come right out the back its going to be drawn out by the vacuum created behind your head there's also two hidden vents at the base of the neck roll here you can feel them with your fingers. Basically its the same type of effect warm air is going to be drawn out from underneath the bottom of the helmet as well . Like i said earlier this is the same face shield used on the X12 its the CW1 its a wider eye port its also got several different detentes you could crack it open and it has a ratcheting mechanism all the way up and down. On the side here you have a locking mechanism if you tilt that lever back that shield is locked down so if your on the track and you do head checks it will lock down so it doesn't come open thats there for you, and if you push it forward slightly and it cracks the shield slightly so you can get just a little bit of air flow to come in from the bottom if you need the shield from defogging there . To remove the shield you actually open it all the way and its got the quick release self adjusting base plate before i take it off if you look at the ratcheting mechanism here when i close the shield all the way this spring actually pulls the shield back against the helmet and it will have a nice tight seal all the way around that gasket , its going to result in a quieter helmet and its also going to provide you with a better seal against the elements if your riding in the rain. Ill show you a feature here when i take the shield off , you just push that trigger forward the shield comes off its very easy to use. Another thing i don't know if you'll be able to see it on here on the camera here, but there's a lip around the top of the CW-1 shield and what that does is it seals around the top of this gasket . So if you've ever had a helmet where if your riding in the rain you've got water dripping down on the inside of your shield very frustrating , you've got a lip now which is going to give you a really nice seal around the top of the helmet to prevent that from happening . This shield is also available with the pin lock insert so you can get one with pin lock posts you can buy pin lock inserts basically what that does is gives you a duel layered shield you can install the insert and that's going to prevent any fogging from happening they work really really well so if your in an area that has high humidity that's a really great option as well . To reinstall the shield just line up these pins give it a little push there and it snaps right back into place just like so. So now were going to go ahead and move to the inside of this helmet and show you those features. On the interior of this helmet one thing that has significantly improved over the RF1000 now the interior is fully removable that's not something you had with the RF1000 that's a very welcomed feature especially if your running in a hot environment or you do a lot of track days of your sweating a lot you can actually take the entire liner out and replace it you can wash it so that's definitely a welcomed feature. I'm going go ahead and pull one of the cheek pads out here which is basically three snaps and this plastic piece inserts between the shell and the liner , these cheek pads are layered its actually multiple layers of foam you have a nice contour against your skin. Its a nice soft fabric as well . If you take a close look here there's actually recesses here as well for speakers if you use a communication system or if you install speakers for music or GPS or anything like that , you've got a space already cut out of the shell so that you have a spot to put those. Go ahead and remove the rest of the interior here the cheek pads come right out this is a brand new one that we just pulled out of the box . The center pad of this helmet is actually what they call their 3D center pad which is again going to contour the shape of your head its also has raised portions and opening so that ventilation that's coming up through the top of the helmet you can actually see there's holes here and its going to channel the air and it can get to your skin. If i flip the helmet up here you can actually see on the inside of this helmet these channels these groves are designed not only to prevent your head from being hurt in an impact which is what the actual liner does but holes here and these are really going to channel all that air all over your head so your not going to have just one or two spots where you have good ventilation your going to have good ventilation all throughout your head with this helmet. The Shoei RF1100 starts $377 for solids and goes up to $472 for graphics it weighs in at 3 and a half pounds which is actually slightly lighter then the X12 which is their high end race helmet . One thing that's really neat about Shoei helmets is that they do have a 5 year warranty from the date of purchase and they also give you 7 years from the date of manufacture and they also have a Shoei inspection program which is free of charge, so if you drop your helmet and are not sure if its damaged or usable you can just send it off to Shoei they will inspect it for free and they will let you know if its good to go or not. The RF1000 was a great helmet for years from Shoei the 1100 just takes it one step further its a great helmet. If you any questions just give us a call or check them out online at competition accessories .com.
Hey guys this is Reuben with Competition Accessories welcome to our head to head comparison of Shoei RF1100 vs all new Shoei RF1200. Now if your familiar with the RF line of helmets going back the RF1000 was one of the more popular full face helmets ever to be produced certainly one of the most successful models for Shoei and they fall in right under their X line of helmets which is their flagged ship race helmets . Right now its the X12 and the X11 before that. Their very high end race helmets as well but they are very aggressively vented which they a little bit more noisy as far as the wind noise goes , and on top of that they are more expensive. For the every day rider who occasionally does that track day or is more of a commuter , long distance tourer or just attacking the twisties on the weekend when you can . The RF line of helmets is definitely a lot more affordable , but it also give you some advantages for the street like a quieter ride. Now looking at the two a lot of you are probably familiar with the RF1100 , I actually got a chance to ride in both of these earlier . They are both size medium which is the size i normally wear . First thing your going to notice when looking at these things side by side, is the RF1200 is actually physically a smaller helmet on the outside. They brought the shell dimensions in quite a bit to give you a more compact feel which is a fantastic thing. You can also see the RF1100 they integrated that rear spoiler into the shell itself which brought the shell out a little bit further and now they have gone with an add on integrated rear spoiler much like the RF1000. The other big advantage of actually shrinking the shell itself is the weight savings you have. You have 3.6 pounds for the RF1100 and then we throw RF1200 on the scale and your looking at 3.45 pounds , Under 3 and a half pounds. And that's going to translate into less neck fatigue and a more comfortable ride as you experience the open road for hours and hours on end. First thing i noticed when i pulled this helmet on my head is the opening is quite a bit smaller quite a bit more snug on the RF 1200 they actually brought the neck roll in quite a bit closer to the face which again translates into a quieter ride . This one is a little bit easier to get off and it is also a little bit more open at the bottom of the helmet . You'll also notice that the RF1100 has a lot of fabric along the base of the helmet, The best thing in my opinion is they have given you a kind of rubberized finish all along the bottom of the helmet which is not only going to keep the helmet cleaner when you set it down its also going to keep nicer for a longer period of time . So if you set your helmet down on the sidewalk or at a rest stop, you can expect the helmet to last a bit longer. Speaking of the cheek pads it brought over the emergency quick release cheek pad system, you can see these red tabs here simply grab a hold of that and pull down and you'll be removing the cheek pads just like that . There's quite a bit of engineering that went into that these little snaps work they actually have ramps built into them to actually release them as you pull down in that direction . The purpose of them though is not just so you can simply and quickly release and pull your cheek pads out , it actually has a notice to emergency personnel here on the side so if they suspect neck injury's or maybe your unconscious after an accident they can remove the cheek pads very easily while your still wearing the helmet and that opens the base of the opening quite a bit more so they can easily slide the helmet off of your head without causing further neck injury's , this is definitely a very very welcome innovation that they have brought over from their race helmets. Also new for this helmet is the new ventilation system. You have a chin bar vent which is very similar to what the RF1100 did, but the new one is much more flush on the front of the helmet again reducing wind noise . The big difference is they have added a third vent at the top of the helmet which is a brow vent that's actually directing air into the air channels in the EPS liner .You still have two intake vents here at the top . If you take a look at the set up on the RF1100 you have 4 separate exhaust vents that you have to physically close individually, so that means while your riding you are reaching up on the top of your head and closing or opening all four vents separately. Its great for customizing air flow but takes a little bit more time to open and close , so if you get caught in the rain these are exposed and open on the top so water could find its way down onto your head. Now you still have 4 exhaust vents but they are hidden under this integrated spoiler and they are all operated with a single switch. Its a lot faster to open and close it . And I don't know about you guys but i typically have all my vents open or all my vents closed depending on the weather and how cold it is. I much prefer a simple system that just opens them all up , if its hot enough to have one vent open in my opinion its just about warm enough to have them all open. Maybe with the exception of the chin bar vent, which you can use to combat fog to give you air to put up onto the face shield. Speaking of a face shield you do have a pin lock ready shield included now and the pin lock insert comes in the box as well . So the RF1200 is definitely giving you a good system right in the box to combat fog . Another thing you will notice about the face shield that is all new is the reinforcements that they have added on the bottom and top , now the CWR 1 shield. They have done a couple of other things not only is it reinforced for a better seal but you have an extra layer of gasket material at the bottom and the top of the helmet as well again to give you a better seal against the elements and preventing wind noise and whistling you have an all new base plate system that is adjustable you can see there's a little adjustment screw right here it has several positions you turn them its actually like a ___ and its going to pull the base plate just slightly forward or backward so that you can customize how tight of a seal your getting against that gasket system on the shell itself . And that's going to give you a very good seal for unwanted wind noise and water from coming in on the inside. As for the finish of it i really like what they have done here a little attention to detail there , its got a nice kind of carbon fiber look to it to the plastic its not just a kind of generic black plastic . Removing the shield is as easy as ever , its a simple trigger and it goes right back on here quickly so swapping face shields is quick. Now speaking of the face shield they are supposed to be coming out with a transition face shield for this helmet which will be absolutely fantastic . It wont be cheap but it is supposed to darken when its exposed to UV , so its going to be one shield that you leave on the helmet all the time . Clear at night and darkens depending on the conditions during the day .

Touching Base: A Message from the ChiefJanuary 6, 2013Dear
Community Members and Department Personnel:
New Year! Once
Again the City of Pasadena and the Tournament of Roses played host to the
world's premier parade and football game. As you may know, there are a
number of sponsors, local governmental officials, and tournament
representatives who collaborate to ensure the parade and bowl game are specular
events. This year was no exception. When Tournament of Roses
President Sally Bixby and her husband, Hardin, motored past the
grandstands you could feel the excitement as the world focused on Pasadena and
the parade. As in years past, Pasadena Mayor Bill Bogaard and his wife, Claire
participated in the parade. Their guests this year were Vice Mayor Margaret
McAustin and her husband, John.
Pasadena Police Department worked closely with the Tournament of Roses and
local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to ensure safety was the
highest priority. In that effort, Lieutenant Bruce George commands
exceptional groups of police personnel assigned to the Event Planning and the
Counter Terrorism Units, who serve as the police department primary
coordinators. Personnel includes: Sergeants Art Chute and Rudy
Lemos, Corporal Julie Finney, Officers David Thomas and Brad
May, and Police Specialists Rickey Liu. This year the Pasadena
Police Department arrested a total of 40 people between the parade and the bowl
game. The vast majority of the arrests were alcohol related.
Your Information:
members are encouraged to attend one of several community meetings to become
familiar with and provide input on the Draft 2013-15 School/City Work
Plan. Feedback is needed to ensure the work of partnering agencies
and educators is captured in the Plan's strategies. The Work Plan will be
presented to the Pasadena Board of Education and City Council at their February
19, 2013 annual Joint Meeting, to be held at 6:30 p.m. in the City Hall Council
Chambers. To view the Draft Work Plan and/or for additional information
regarding the Joint Meeting and Outreach efforts, please visit www.cityofpasadena.net/humanservices or contact Lisa Fowler at email@example.com.

suspects involved in this senseless crime. On January 2, 2013, Keith presented
the case to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office who filed several
felony charges including murder. The victim's family and the community
were greatly impacted by this tragic crime.
criminal filings against the suspects are appropriate given the circumstance of
the shooting. The outcome is the result of many days of hard work by
Pasadena Police Detectives and other law enforcement entities, including the
Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Pasadena Police officers
involved in the case are: Lieutenant Tracey Ibarra, Sergeant Ernie
Devis, Corporals Jason Van Hecke, Ara Bzdigian, Cuong Pham, and William
Broghamer. Also deeply involved in the investigation were: Police
Administrator Gena Persons, P.S. VI Alex Padilla, PS VI Kevin
Roon, PS VI Cristina Fish, Detectives assigned to the Fugitive
Apprehension Unit (FAU), Detectives assigned to the West San
Gabriel Valley-Anti Crime Taskforce (WSGV-ACT), and Pasadena Police Officer
John Watkins. Sergeant Tory Riley was the on-scene Incident
Commander. Our investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked
to contact the Pasadena Police Department at (626)744-4241, or you may report

January 5, 2013,
Deputy Chief Darryl Qualls, Commander John Perez, Lieutenant Rodney
Wallace, Corporals Bobby Jenkins and Paul McKinney, Office
Supervisor Beverly Bogar and I attended the celebration of life for
Victor James McClinton. Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Catholic Church was filled to capacity with family, friends, coworkers, and
young people who had been coached by Victor. Councilwoman Jacque
Robinson and Danny Bakewell were among the many VIPs. Danny
Bakewell, Jr. and Sheriff Lee Baca gave the eulogies.
Interment followed the church service.
December 25, 2012, at about 8:00 p.m., the Pasadena Police Department and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation were conducting joint gang enforcement in the
city following a homicide that occurred earlier in the day. While patrolling
the area of Claremont Street and Marengo Avenue, officers observed a silver
Dodge Durango commit a traffic violation. Officers activated their
emergency equipment (red lights and siren) and affected a traffic stop.
As the officers exited their police vehicle and approached the suspect car,
which was occupied by four people, the driver quickly drove away attempting to
evade the officers. The officers immediately returned to their police car and,
using red lights and siren, attempted to stop the vehicle. Subsequently,
a vehicle pursuit ensued as the driver continued to flee. As the driver
approached the intersection of Marengo Avenue and Maple Street, he failed to
stop for a red light and drove into the intersection, colliding with a minivan.
victims were killed as a result of the collision. Three other occupants
from the minivan were transported to a local hospital with serious
injuries. Four suspects were arrested at the scene. As Pasadena
Police Traffic officers started their investigation, the department was
notified by a community member who witnessed the pursuit that as the suspect
vehicle passed; they observed a firearm being thrown. Pasadena Police
officers responded to the area described by the witness and recovered a loaded
semiautomatic pistol. The pistol was recovered and booked as
evidence. On December 28, 2012, the Pasadena Police Department
presented the collision investigation to the Office of the Los Angeles County
District Attorney. The District Attorney's Office filed several charges
against the driver (Male Black adult) and a passenger (Female Black
adult). Charges included: Murder, Gang enhancement, assault with a
deadly weapon, and felon in possession of a firearm.
tragic incident could have been avoid if the suspect driver would have remained
at the scene of the initial traffic stop or later stopped his vehicle as
officers were pursuing him. I believe the persons responsible for this
tragic incident have been appropriately charged by the District Attorney's
Office. It is my hope that the criminal filing might bring some comfort
to the victims and their extended family. As a reminder, when a law enforcement
officer activates the emergency equipment (red lights and/or siren) on their
police car, motorists are expected to yield the right of way and
January 2, 2013 at about 11:00 a.m., Pasadena Police officers responded to
the Colorado Street Bridge regarding a suicidal subject. Officer Darryl
Harris, Corporal Deanne Nestlerode, and HOPE Team member, Clinician
Rocio, started talking with the despondent subject. The
incident lasted more than eight hours as officers continued to negotiate with
the subject. The Pasadena Fire Department was on standby. Fortunately,
their services were not necessary, as the trio of officers were able to
convince the subject to surrender. The suicidal subject was transported
to a local hospital for evaluation.

Aybar gets 'first crack' at No. 2 spot in order
TEMPE, Ariz. -- The coveted No. 2 spot in the Angels lineup, between the dynamic Mike Trout and the threatening duo of Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton, is now Erick Aybar's to lose.
Aybar has started in the No. 2 spot in back-to-back days since returning from the World Baseball Classic, and Angels manager Mike Scioscia confirmed on Friday that the switch-hitting shortstop will get "first crack" there to open the season.
"That's what our template is," Scioscia said, "and hopefully we'll get a little chemistry going here in the last week [of Spring Training]. There are other candidates that we're looking at, as well. But right now, I think he'll probably get first crack."
The other candidates are right-handed-hitting second baseman Howie Kendrick and switch-hitting third baseman Alberto Callaspo, each of whom can hit there if the matchup is right or if Aybar doesn't produce.
And each bring something different to the table.
Aybar is a good bunter, has speed and hit .347 in the last two months of the season last year, but he isn't all that patient. Callaspo is very patient, and also provides a presence from the left side, but he finished 2012 with a .252/.331/.361 slash line. Kendrick has the most power of the trio, and he is scorching this spring with a .521 batting average and a hit in each of his 16 starts, but he has always proven to be better in an RBI spot lower in the lineup.
Out of the chute, Kendrick figures to bat sixth and Callaspo seventh, with Aybar second.
But the Angels have wiggle room.
"We can rotate," Scioscia said. "If one guy takes it and runs with it, great. If not, we have other options to match up."

Strong followup to one of the more auspicious rap debuts of the 90s. A variety of producers are used, but they're all adept at creating the same kind of sparse and smooth sound with a touch of menace that gave the debut its edge. It's also a great backdrop for some more engaging street tales told by a fella whose flow and tone still recall Rakim, and he's just as true to the game. 7/15/1996 - Don Yates

"Grim Reaper" Comes To Jackson Memorial High School
Prom season is almost here and students in the Jackson Memorial High School are getting a tough lesson that could potentially save their lives.
We always stress the importance of good, safe driving practices for our teens and young adults. But sometimes, the words spewed out during a lecture or written in a textbook fail to make an impact. That's where the "grim reaper" program comes into play.
The activity was developed back in 2006 and has been a staple of the curriculum for the Memorial and Liberty High School's in the district.
With help from the Jackson Township Police Department, a student acts as the grim reaper, even donning the hooded cloak. He or she, goes to a classroom, taps peers on the shoulder and takes them out into the hall. They put on a t-shirt that now symbolizes their death from a drunk driving accident. A handful of students are also arrested by the cops and put in orange jump suits.
Vice Principal Carl Perino says "they then have to go to school for a week without socializing with friends, until an assembly. It is during that time that they discuss their "fictional death" in a story – either through reading something, making a video or an audio recording. It's very powerful. When we do these, there's not a dry eye in the auditorium."
Perino adds "it always sends the clear message that your actions can have a dramatic effect on you and everyone you know."
The next assembly for the program will be held tomorrow at the school. Student Erin Dippold will be one of the presenters. While she won't divulge the details of the tale she came up with, she does say "it's changed so many aspects of my life. It makes you realize how your decisions, both good and bad, can affect the people around you. People that are close to you. I recently got my license and now I am always extra cautious when I get in the car, thanks to the program and what my parents and teachers have talked to me about."
Not only is drunk driving part of it, now texting while driving is also emphasized as a risky and dangerous behavior that can lead to consequences.

Remember to unplug microwave before installing this part and refer to the manual provided by the manufacturer for installation instructions and a detailed diagram.
Above the stove mounted microwave. I dropped the lens cover from under the bulb and tried to remove the bulb. The bulb separated from the base. I tried to remove the base with a pliers and the lamp socket broke. I ordered the parts and dropped the bottom cover of the unit down (5 screws). Removed 1 screww from the lamp socket, unplugged the wires and took it out. Simply replaced socket, fastened bottom cover of microwave, installed new bulb and closed lens cover.
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
HANDLE:1. Removed the 2 screws that used to hold the old handle.2. Reattached the 2 screws to the new handle.LIGHT BULBS:1. Removed the screws that hold the light cover in place.2. Replaced the bulbs.3. Screwed the cover back in place.
At first I tried to use pliers to unscrew the base,very uncomfortable working position,upside down and backwards(the microwave is installed over the range top)very limited space for your body and arms to manuver and you really cant see the base,all of this took place after the breaker was turned off ofcourse,finally figured out that you can drop the entire bottom housing of the microwave by unscrewing 6 screws and the light sockets are easily accessable once you lower it,take out 1 retaining screw ,remove the entire socket and unscrewed the broken base and replaced the bulbs,I said bulbs,there is no sense in having to replace another bulb in who knows how long since only one had burned out but they were both the same age
1. Take off bottom panel2. discon wire from microwave3. set panel on table4. unscrew panel cover under metal cover bracket5. need to do that because screw from cover panel won't let you put in light bulb in round hole in metal cover panel6. take new socket holder and insert bulband screw back on to metal cover bracket after remove bad socket holder and bulb by unscrewing7. recon wire8. test before putting back bottom panel9. screw bottom panel back on.
After reading some of the comments that others wrote, I decided to order the light sockets along with the replacement bulbs. As predicted, the old light bulbs broke when I tried to remove them - the bulb separated from the base which was still screwed in the socket. After removing the screws that held the bottom panel, I was able to remove the socket assemblies with ease. After inspection of the old sockets, I was glad I ordered new sockets - the old sockets were burned in some spots and very brittle. The parts arrived within a day and a half after I ordered them, but when the parts arrived, one of the bulbs was broken (happened during shipping). I called the office phone number and talked to a really pleasant technician who refunded me the price of the broken bulb and placed an order for a replacement. That was the Wednesday evening before Thanksgiving Day. I got the replacement bulb yesterday (Tuesday) morning - still really quick considering the Thanksgiving holiday. All of the parts are installed and are working excellent. I am definately going to keep their WEBsite for future use, and I'll be letting my friends know about them. Thanks PartSelect, you've earned my business.
This was a super easy repair job. I couldn't figure out how the lens that covered the light bulb would have cracked and realized it must have been from my contractor when he replaced my stove. I can't prove it, of course, so I am left doing the repairs. The website was very easy to order from and confirm that I had the correct parts as the model numbers tend to change over time.
Loosen screw holding glass cover plate in place over bulb. Glass cover plate will swing down. Unscrew bad bulb, replace with good bulb, reset glass cover and tighten screw.
I ended up breaking one bulb trying to remove a burnt bulb for replacement. We then tried removing the other bulb and it wouldn't come out either. I googled the problem and found PartSelect and an explaination of the problem. Heat from either the stove or the bulbs had fused the bulbs into the sockets. Comments on the problem explained that you just remove the bottome pannel (we had seven screws), unplug the old sockets, insert the new and new bulbs and reattach the panel. It was quick and no problems to correct. We did discover the microwave was on its own breaker, make sure to disconnect or cutoff power to the microwave before you start.
Put radioactive nuke suit on. Unplug microwave, used philips screw driver and took glass plate from the bulb cover, unscrew burnt bulb and replace with new bulb. Put cover back over replacement bulb, insert screw and tighten. Then used philips screw driver to take two screws that held the front control panel in place, then it folded down, then checked 20 amp fuse, it was burnt, replaced it with a new one. Folded control panel, inserted two small philip head screws back into control panel. Then plugged microwave back in, set the clock, tested it with cup water. Worked like a brand new one. Take off radioactive nuke suit. Just kidding about the radioactive nuke suit.
Lower base of the microwave, about 6 screws, replaced broken light bulb socket,then re-installed.Installed new light bulb.
I was told by 2 different appliance technicians that the crumbled/melted light socket could not be replaced which meant replacing the entire microwave (expensive!). Other posters on your sight described the repair steps and I gave it a try. The hardest part was probably figuring out which switch in the fuse box belonged to it (now marked clearly). It was a simple matter of unscrewing the bottom panel of the microwave to access the socket, pulling the crumbled/melted unit off and shoving the new one on. I can't believe the repairmen didn't want any part of even giving it a try.
The replacement of the light no problem, the reason the light broke; problem. The original was glued in (for transport i think) and simply trying to unscrew it out (in a very tight slot) it broke; be careful or you'll be buying a new $20 bulb (with shipping and handling).
Un screwed the cover but when i tried to remove the bulb it was broken at the base. I disconnected the power and used neddle nosed pliers to remove the base
I used the internet and your directions to complete the repair. It was easy!
Removed one screw, slid frame out and removed broken glass. replaced bulb. The hard part was slidding the frame back in place and starting the screw. We were very surprised at the fast delivery of the parts, thank you. The sad part, a few days later the glass broke again. We are trying to get to the people at GE to solve our problem. We feel like that will not happen, we just do not have the time to stay on hold on the phone waiting for someone to solve our problem. Will reorder glass.

AMA Pro Racer Kyle Wyman Celebrating Announcement Of Progeria Clinical Drug Trial
© 2017, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc. From a
press release
issued by KLR Group
AMA Pro racer Kyle Wyman with Progeria patient Megan at Road America.
KLR Group athletes celebrating big news from Progeria Research Foundation
NEW YORK -- KLR Group athletes Erica Enders and Kyle Wyman are celebrating Monday's announcement of the results of a clinical drug trial for children with Progeria that show the effectiveness of a drug originally developed to treat cancer.
Enders, an NHRA Pro Stock driver, and Wyman, an AMA Pro Road Racing motorcycle rider, are active spokespeople for the Progeria Research Foundation (PRF), which was founded in 1999 to find the cause, treatment and cure for Progeria - a rapid aging disease that causes children to die from heart disease or stroke at an average age of 13 years.
The clinical trial results, completed only six years after scientists identified the cause of Progeria, included significant improvements in weight gain, bone structure and, most importantly, the cardiovascular system, according to PRF and Boston Children's Hospital. The drug lonafarnib is known as a farnesyltransferase inhibitor (FTI).
The study results were published Monday in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
"This is a tremendous day for us," PRF Executive Director Audrey Gordon said. "It's a momentous, historic occasion because it proves that drugs can help improve Progeria. It's just a start, and it's just the first of hopefully many wonderful successful days when we discover more drugs that will improve more things about kids with Progeria, and ultimately, the cure."
Wyman and Enders are teammates at GK Motorsports, an integrated, multi-platform racing enterprise founded in 2012. GK Motorsports is owned by Texas businessman Gaston Kearby.
"One of the great things about such big news is it really helps to raise awareness," Gordon said. "Just like what Erica and Kyle have done for us and what they continue to do for us, they help spread the word. Now we have a treatment. When we get FDA approval, doctors can write prescriptions.
"Of course, those prescriptions don't mean anything if you don't know if child has Progeria. We can't help them unless we can find them. So the kind of awareness activities that Erica and Kyle do for us are so vital to what we do. We've got to make Progeria more of a household word and more of a recognizable disease so that people will know what their children have early on. Then they can come to us and we can start them on these drugs and put them in these drug trials and give them more of a chance as early as possible in their lives so they can live long and healthy ones."
Both drivers have hosted the families of children with Progeria at races this season. Wyman and Enders also shot public service announcements for PRF.
"Like many people, I didn't know what Progeria was until we got involved with PRF this year," Wyman said. "Since then, I've had the unique opportunity of spending some time with Megan, Cam and Zach when they joined us at the races and I've just fallen in love with these kids. I'm proud to take up their cause and to hear this latest news, that is so encouraging, is a better feeling than any race win I've ever had.
"It's crazy but when Megan came to Road America, we won the race. Then Cam and Zach came to Indy and we won that race also. These kids have been good luck for us and I hope some of that reflects back to them with this latest medical breakthrough."
Added Enders: "This is really wonderful news. I got to meet Zach, a little boy with Progeria, earlier this year, and I just had so much fun with him. He's so full of energy and love. To be able to help out in any way with him or any child with Progeria is truly an honor."
Gordon is the sister of Dr. Leslie Gordon, M.D., Ph.D., the PRF medical director, lead author of the study and a parent of a child with Progeria. Dr. Gordon also is a staff scientist at Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, and associate professor at Hasbro Children's Hospital and Alpert Medical School of Brown University.
"To discover that some aspects of damage to the blood vessels in Progeria can not only be slowed by the FTI called lonafarnib, but even partially reversed within just 2.5 years of treatment is a tremendous breakthrough, because cardiovascular disease is the ultimate cause of death in children with Progeria," Dr. Gordon said.

Mets, Baseball Tomorrow Fund pledge Sandy help
NEW YORK -- The Baseball Tomorrow Fund and the Mets Foundation announced Thursday that they will donate up to $1 million through a relief grant program for youth baseball and softball organizations directly affected by Superstorm Sandy. The grant program will provide support for organizations to maintain or reestablish youth baseball and softball programs and facilities affected by the storm.
"Immediately after the storm, we made a pledge to help our hometown recover from Sandy," Mets principal owner Fred Wilpon said in a statement. "The recovery effort has been and will continue to be a priority for all of us at the Mets in the weeks and months ahead."
Grant applications are being accepted through May 31, with instructions and evaluation criteria available at BaseballTomorrowFund.com.
"The aftermath of Superstorm Sandy is still being felt throughout many communities in the United States, and the National Pastime is honored to continue our support of the efforts to rebuild," MLB Commissioner Bud Selig said. "Major League Baseball is proud that the joint commitment of the Baseball Tomorrow Fund and the New York Mets Foundation will help local baseball and softball organizations recover from the storm, and all of us throughout the game hope that the donation will ease one aspect of the significant burdens on these communities."

At the Open: New Records for S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrials?
Is it time to pop the champagne and celebrate new stock market highs? Maybe.
The Dow Jones Industrials have risen 0.2% to 15,781.75 at 9:51 a.m.-a record high--lifted by the Home Depot (HD), which has gained 0.9%, and General Electric (GE), which has risen 0.7%. The S&P 500, however, has dipped ever so slightly to 1,770. JC Penney (JCP) jumps 7.1% to $8.25 on better same-store sales, and Tesoro (TSO) climbs 5.7% after releasing earnings.
Stocks have gotten a boost from the 2.8% increase in U.S. gross-domestic product, which beat forecasts for 2%. Deutsche Bank's Alan Ruskin explains why the number isn't as strong as it looks:
Headline GDP 2.8%; GDP ex inventories 2%; GDP ex inventories ex net exports 1.7%. Headline much stronger than expected, but the breakdown was less promising because 1)inventories added more than expected, and many street analysts will see this as unintended and therefore subtracting from GDP next qtr; 2) some of the strength reflected govt subtracting less than expected led by strength in state and local govt; and, 3) non-residential investment was poor at -3.7%. Elsewhere consumption growth was still very modest at 1.5%, albeit led by soft services and the more cyclical durables were solid. The data breakdown does not point to any underlying acceleration in growth, although as noted yesterday key leading indicators suggest limited risks of stalling and greater risks of a moderate acceleration in the months ahead.
Also giving stocks a boost: The European Central Bank's decision to cut its benchmark interest rate to 0.25 percentage point. Societe Generale's Kit Juckes explains why the ECB still needs to do more:
As far as policies to revive nominal growth in Europe are concerned, I stand by a view that the ECB simply doesn't have the armoury that is available to the Fed. I would prefer to see the ECB buying a lot of government debt than see LTROs encourage banks to buy government bonds, some of which can happen at the expense of private sector loan growth. Without more credit growth the Euro area will continue to stagnate, especially given the degree of fiscal austerity that is still required by the rules the system lives by. And that is why I think we will see more easing, within the limits of what the ECB can do - starting with another LTRO next year. But I would still describe this as a pea-shooter policy because it would take ECB government bond-buying to constitute 'bazooka'. Still, I have a huge amount of respect for the Draghi regime at the ECB, which started with a surprise rate cut, moved on to the LTRO, shocked us with the 'anything it takes' comment and continues to surprise. He is incredibly imaginative and innovative, even if he is isn't armed with big enough weapons....
The cut caused the euro to fall against the dollar, and the days of a rising falling euro being bad for the stock market appear over. While the 120-day correlation between the S&P and the euro was as high as 60% just one year ago, it's now just 11%. The higher the correlation the greater the tendency to move in the same direction.
Strategas' Research Partners' Nicholas Bohnsack and Ryan Grabinski worry about earnings growth:
With the S&P closing at 1,770 yesterday and having earned, according to S&P, about $102 over the last 12 months, each $1 of earnings is valued at roughly 17.3 Index points. That places the value of the ~$8 difference, between the prevailing $118.64 NTM estimate and the $110.25 that will likely be when actuals are reported, as 145 Index points (8.39 x 17.3 = 145) or about 8 percentage points of Index value. This would be the risk to the market if a moderation in the slope of earnings estimate initiation - all other things being equal - began today.
Investors are saving their worry for another day.

MIAMI - One of two Miami Beach police officers who were fired from the force after a crash involving their police-issued ATV injured several people turned himself in to jail Tuesday.
Derick Kuilan faces two counts of reckless driving with serious bodily injury and two counts of driving under the influence causing serious injury to another in connection with the July 3 incident.
Kuilan and another officer, Rolando Gutierrez, lost their jobs after the incident. Kuilan is accused of picking up a woman at the bar at the Clevelander, a popular bar and restaurant on South Beach, and giving her a ride on his police-issued ATV -- a direct violation of department policy.
The Miami Beach mayor, the chief of police and State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle held a news conference Tuesday afternoon about the arrest. They released a photo that they said shows Gutierrez and Kuilan, who were on duty, taking photos with a group of women in a bachelorette party, including the woman who was later involved in the ATV crash.
"Both officers -- their activities, their actions, their behavior -- was so unprofessional that the five women believed they were perhaps some type of entertainment that was there for the bachelorette party," Rundle said.
After partying on the club's dance floor, police said Kuilan then invited the 27-year-old bachelorette, seen wearing a crown in the picture, aboard his department-issued ATV for a ride on the beach, a violation of police department rules.
Police said Kuilan was driving the ATV on the sand near Fourth Street and Ocean Drive when he ran over two people who were waiting for the sun to rise.
Court records show the vehicle was moving fast and without headlights when it hit the pair.
"This is an incident that obviously left a sting on the organization, no doubt about that," said Police Chief Carlos Noriega.
Kitzie Nicanor, 29, ended up in a coma after the crash. Her father told Local 10 on Tuesday that she is out of the coma and that she remains at Jackson Memorial Hospital in stable condition.
Nicanor's friend, Luis Altamonte, was hospitalized with a broken leg. The woman riding on the ATV with Kuilan suffered minor injuries when she was thrown from the vehicle.
In the news conference, police said Kuilan's blood alcohol level was 0.088 percent, which is above the legal limit, about five and a half hours after the ATV crash.
Noriega fired both officers after learning the two were caught drinking on the job that night.
"Having drinks and doing what they did, it is mindboggling that they felt comfortable enough to do something like that. It's a fleeting act of stupidity. It was reckless," Noriega said.
Miami Beach Commissioner Mike Gongora said the criminal charges against Kuilan send the right message.
"I think that officers are not above the law. They're just like everybody else," Gongora said. "And if this officer in particular broke the law by driving an ATV on the beach while under the influence of alcohol, then he should be punished just like you or I or anybody else that would have done such an act."
Kuilan was booked just before 11 a.m. Tuesday. He remained silent as he walked out of jail Tuesday afternoon after posting bond.

Record $438B Corporate Debt Issued This Year
It's been a banner year for investment-grade corporate debt issuance, which this week reached a new single-year record, according to Thomson Reuters, with still a few weeks to go in the calendar year. From the latest weekly Thomson Reuters Investment Banking Scorecard:
This week's multi-billion dollar corporate bond offerings from Microsoft (MSFT), CVS Caremark (CVS) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) pushed the volume of US non-financial investment grade corporate debt to $438.0 billion for year-to-date 2013, a 6% increase compared to a year ago and the strongest year-to-date period on record. Microsoft's multi-currency offering brings the company's corporate bond issuance this year to $10.6 billion, ranking fifth behind Verizon (VZ), Apple (AAPL), AT&T (T) and IBM (IBM) for US non-FIG debt issuers this year.
Among this year's biggest deals, recall that Apple sold a then-record $17 billion of bonds back in late April in a brilliantly timed deal that came with interest rates near their all-time low, before they rose sharply in May and June. That deal was done to help finance a dividend to shareholders, at a time when Apple's dividend yield was higher than the yields on some of those new bonds, and people who bought those bonds quickly suffered losses when rates rose.
The $17 billion record lasted only a few months before Verizon obliterated it when it sold $49 billion of bonds to fund its $130 billion buyout of Vodafone Group's (VOD) stake in Verizon Wireless.
Thomson Reuters said telecommunications and technology offerings account for 28% of US non-financial high-grade corporate debt issuance this year, registering increases of 300% and 69%, respectively, while JP Morgan (JPM) leads US non-FIG debt underwriting with 12.9% market share, a decline of 3.2 points compared to year-to-date 2012.

Decided to take a poll.
Allegedly Bird's limit was 14m per year. So with that in mind, more than 14 is what I will define as overpay in this case.

Decided to take a poll.
Allegedly Bird's limit was 14m per year. So with that in mind, more than 14 is what I will define as overpay in this case.
IMO Bird was already willing to overpay and someone decided to overpay even more.
If their limit was $14M, and they honestly believe Nene takes us to another level, then I'd go up to $15M.
However, if the asking price continued to escalate, I'd drop out.
I think $14M would have been too high.
$11-$12M would be as high as I'd go.
I don't blame Bird. If we don't make any moves, it's only because the big market teams abuse the system to get what they want and team just overpaying by a large amount for a player.
First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.
Of course you overpay a bit, like I've said before, if they were willing to pay 14mil, 2 and 3 mil shouldn't make that much difference, they can even amnesty DJ if they wanted to, getting Nene this year could have put the Pacers on the map as one of the best teams in the east and maybe then we could have been able to dream to bring a big name here as the last piece in the future, instead now we are gonna have to wait for a big team to clear cap space so we can get our hands in their crappy contracts.
NetsDaily NetsDaily.com
Nets offer to Nene is NOT $70m. More like $64m. Starting at a little above $15. You guys are reading wrong story.
That takes the per-season salary average down from $17.5M to $16M. Less insane, but still overpaying.
Isn't there a max that is allowed under the CBA? Is so what is that?
If it averages to under 17 mil a year, and is super front loaded, I'd sign that.

With the report the Nets have offered 4/70, 17.5 per year, I'm not interested in getting into a bidding war for Nene's services. Bird is right by not doing it. AND we all know I don't often say Bird is right about something. I'm adopting the Bird philosophy of PATIENCE. Find a player/players thru a trade or two.
Was on board with overpaying....but then I started thinking about how I'd rather have Elton Brand's contract for the two years it has left.
i wpuld pay nene 17 million but thats all..... he would be a real gamechanger for the pacers and would greatly affect the future of this franchise.... we would be top 5 in the east without question......
How is Nene a game changer? I guess I don't see it for a guy that never averaged more than 8 boards. I'm sure the eye test might be better, but he doesn't seem to be a good rebounder at all.
I'd rather try and trade for Okafor. At least Okafor plays good D and has been a pretty constant averaging 10boards.
Or go after Josh Smith (probably need a 3rd team) or Milsap. Hell, I'd rather trade for Jason Thompson/Jordan Hill than over pay by that large of an amount.
First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.
He's a game changer because of what his presence does to the rest of our team. He makes us much bigger, he gives us a much needed big, strong, athletic finisher at the 4, he gives us two strong options at the C spot. That would have a DRAMATIC effect on this team, IMO.
For that high price i'd rather take someone younger who'll be a little cheaper. My top 2 choices are Milsapp and Josh Smith. Smith will probably be a little pricier but worth it. Nene is 29. and Josh Smith way younger with more upside.
Bird made the right move for a guy like Nene.
14M is a good max.
The Nets pulled a major risk.
Don't get me wrong I really wanted Nene, but for the price the Nets paid, no thanks.
In 49 states it's just basketball, but this is Indiana!
The report says 65mil, either way I am going to keep beating the same drum, many people here don't want to trade anybody and to make a trade we are gonna have to trade somebody, if overpaying Nene 3mil more a year let's you keep your core intact you do it.
OK let's make a trade for Millsap and then we have to send at least one young player+picks, nice we have our PF but now we need to pay for another center because Milsap can't play center, how much extra we are going to pay for a decent center? by looking at some of the contracts signed yesterday a center is not getting less than 7mil a year, so Ok now we traded our young player and picks to get Milsap 7mil(Hans,DC,Hill,Rush,Hibbert,etc) plus the new center at around 7mil so at the end of the day we ended up paying 14/15mil a year for two players instead of one and lost a young player+ pick, is it worth it to do all this to save 3mil? I don't think so.
Nene must be feeling extremely wanted simmering away on that back burner while NJ chases Howard.

If the Pacers thought he was a real gamechanger at a position of real need, why NOT overpay? Wouldn't his value to the Pacers be awfully high?
The numbers seem like arbitrary cutoffs. What puts us over the cap? Do we really need more players? If not, why NOT pay $18 mil if necessary (if we think he's the best guy available)? Why is 14 or 15 too much?
Paying $10 for somebody who's not as good but seems to have a fairer price tag doesn't strike me as a sure path to the top half of the East. But that's why I ask what the goal is.
Anderson Varejao looks better everyday. He solves the b/u C enter situation and can start or b/u the PF spot. He's a tuff smashmouth energy player who can bring the "D". He does not interfer with Hibbert's "O", and helps Hibbert in the paint with the "D". He's got a very reasonable type of contract. JMOAA
Seriously, who would want to look forward to playing against the Pacers with Foster, Hans, and Varejao tuffness?

From @chadfordinsider last night. Max for Nene, $15.5M. That's roughly $64M over 4. tinyurl.com/7aq77k3
Max deal #'s under new CBA: 25% is $12.9 M (i.e. Gasol) … 30% is $15.5 M (ie. Nene) … 35% is $18.1 M (player with 10+ yr service)
The MOST Nene can get from anyone but Denver is a deal starting at $15.5m???
Shame on you, of all people, for forgetting Varejao.
In my opinion anything over $10 million a year is overpaying. Anything at $14 million or above is borderline criminal incompetance.
I'll repost from the Nene thread.
I don't think NJ has formally offerred him anything - how could they when they are in the Dwight Howard sweepstakes? Signing Nene would take them out of that. If all that money was on the table, Nene would have signed already.
I'm sure the Nets have told him Dwight is their priority, but if it falls through they will compensate him more than what other teams are offering. Nene is just in a waiting game now. If NJ lands Dwight, game over, and suddenly our offer (or Denver or Houston) now becomes his best option.
Gasol is likely in the same boat. Memphis has likely low-balled him and would rather match an offer, however teams like Indy, Houston, etc., are all waiting on Nene, who is waiting on Dwight.
Once Dwight's fate is decided, all the dominos will fall
Hey you know I love Varejao, I am just not sure how healthy he is after not playing much last year, I want to see him playing first before making a decision.
