Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in '1994 - 1995 Specific Tech' started by 95StocK50, Nov 22, 2003.
Whats going in the stangs this winter?
my plans are a 393 with afr185's and trickflow intake.
Springs, struts, weld in my subs and crossbraces, and most likely bolt in a driveshaft loop.
Rebuild the motor and trans in my '90GT AOD car and start the homemade single turbo setup for it. Get new wheels for my '95, as well as powder coating the brackets and misc. parts in black chrome.
Winter Project
Anderson Ford Motorsport Vortech Stage I kit
2.95upper/7.00 lower
Lucas 38# injectors
ProM 80mm MAF
Mallory HyFire VI w/3 BAR MAP sensor and boost retard
AM Boost and Fuel Pressure gauges on the cowl
New Motor and Tranny Mounts (polyeurathane)
HPM Loop
Going for 11s...
AFR 165's, FTI cam, 80mm PRO-M MAF, Fox TB setup, re-build the ****ty T-5, SPEC Stage 2, aluminum flywheel, weld in my MM subs, and play with my new TwEECer.
*Cartech T-64 OutlawTurbo kit (currently on order)
*electronic boost controller
*Fuel and ignition upgrades (nothing specific at this moment)
*aftermarket H pipe and catback
*Summit Aluminum Radiator and 180* thermo (doing this week)
*A pillar as well as a few gauges
*Cervini 3.5" cowl hood
*AFS 17x9 (front) and 17x10.5 (rear) 03 Cobra rims and 255/40 and 315/35 Nitto 555r's
Should be about it.
How do you get the h-pipe to work with the turbo? Wouldn't you want a y-pipe?
The aftermarket shorty style (type made for longtube headers) X or H pipe will work. The turbo kit includes a Y pipe. This Y pipe splits into two and mates to an aftermarket H/X pipe.
Performing the following:
Dss 347
tubular k-member
weld in subframes
loose some more weight some how
track heat intake
mickey thompsons E.T.streets
long tubes
shooting for 11s on motor
polishing and cleaning up the engine bay, but the camaro will be getting in the way of that so just whatever i can get done i will live with.
springs, struts, shocks, subframe connectors, drive shaft loop and a bullitt pedal kit.
Adding some 24s...
New hood...
Scoring a TwEECer...
New wheels, if things go well....
This week I'll be doing Cobra brakes, and MM sub welding.
The rest of the winter will consist of:
MM panhard bar
Smoked headlights
some sort of audio (tape player broke)
mount battery in trunk
Either..MM front and rear coil overs
or AFR 165's (can't decide where to spend income tax check $)
Might sneak in a MM torque arm if business is good.
We should pull this thread up in the Spring and see if we accomplish our goals.
If the guy ever sends me my heads....I'll be having these parts installed...
Edelbrock Performer RPM upper/lower
Trick Flow Twised Wedge Heads
Trick Flow Stage 1 Cam
3/8" intake spacer
Edelbrock Throttlebody
Edelbrock Elbow
New gaskets and bolts for all of this of course
Hopefully gettin part of my tattoo before christmas or for christmas
Vortech S-Trim, MAF, injectors....they're gonna have to wait till I have enough money to buy gauges, chip, tune...etc..
My plans are trying not to total it in the snow
It's not like we have much of a winter down in sunny Florida, but finishing the rear suspension, a roll cage, new brakes, and starting the new motor are on the list.
Suspension -
Still undecided on the MM torque arm and a home built panhard bar or Evolution Motorsports watt's link and 3-link. I'll get it figured out soon.
Roll Cage -
Nothing fancy here. Probably just an Autopower 6-point cage.
Brakes -
I'm leaning towards a 13" Stoptech setup but the cost of the 4-pot brembos or 6-pot Wilwoods are appealing. I may go cheap and get some 13" Cobra's.
I really need to do the math, but an aluminum block 347 with twin turbos is planned. I figure if I can do it for under $15K I'll go for it, even if it will take me 3-years to finish.
My Cartech Outlaw Turbo is on order and that will be the biggest project. Building my speaker box and installing the amps and XM. New ABS sensors since we had to beat them off to change gears. Clean interior until it shines. Put subframe connectors on. And speed Cal.
The only thing I have planned for now is to sell my 94 and purchase a 98 Vortech S/C'ed Chrome Yellow Cobra. And if all goes well it should happen in a week or two.
Hopefully working on the single turbo kit, tremec trans, and a roll bar.
finish the 347
I have been working on the new stroker for a while now.
Have to pull it out and put in a new oil pump driveshaft. broke the first one somehow. any ideas what causes that??
than I have to put it back together and hopefully do some serious tuning.
just bought my new cherry picker and engine stand today, so I am ready to rock and roll.
after the tuning it's just break her in and get some rubber for the 17's. and a new cobra r hood of course so it don't feel naked.
hope to get her dynoed sometime next summer.
good luck guys

text: Gosh, I had such good intentions when I first found TONMO... funny how a busy office and an 18-month-old can really muck up your intentions. Anyway, I'm a ceph fan, at least from books. Spent some time this year reading some ceph-specific and ceph-related books. Keeping one as a pet is an interesting idea but I don't think something I have time for now. I can say, though, that I was at the DC National Aquarium this year (not the on in baltimore) and to my surprise, small as it was, they had about half a dozen nautiluses! We took a few pictures but the tank was dark so the pictures were too. But they were pretty cool.

The goal of treatment for sleep apnea is to decrease the frequency or completely eliminate episodes of breathing interruption.
Treatment may involve the following:
Lifestyle changesSurgeryOther treatments
A number of drugs have been investigated for use in treating sleep apnea.
(Provigil) has been used to reduce sleepiness in people with daytime sleepiness.
(Prilosec) is another medication that has been used to reduce the number of apnea attacks.

Set in 1983, Let Me In is the horrific tale of Oskar and Eli. It begins with the grizzly discovery of the body of a teenage boy, emptied of blood. Twelve-year-old Oskar is personally hoping that revenge has come at long last - revenge for all the bad things the bullies at school do to him, day after day.
While Oskar is fascinated by the murder, it is not the most important thing in his life. A new girl has moved in next door - a girl who has never seen a Rubik's cube before, but who can solve it at once. They become friends. Then something more. But there is something wrong with her, something odd. And she only comes out at night....
©2004 John Ajvide Lindqvist (P)2010 Macmillan Audio
"Lindqvist develops the plot in rich detail. The characters, adult and child, are quite convincingly the sort that one would probably cross the street to avoid in any city." (Booklist)
This would have made a great ten hour book. Instead it was somewhere around 16. The book is not divided into chapters, but into days. It starts with about four main characters. On each day we switch from character to character. The switching is often abrupt and usually takes you a minute to realize that characters have changed. This takes some real listening. Do not think you can do any other activity while listening or you will be lost. It was weird and it was different and for the first 15 days I thought it was a great book. It is a very slow moving book. The characters were interesting enough to keep my attention. About the 16th day we add another character and less time is spend with the initial characters that you have grown use to. The story gets even slower. After 16 days I started losing interest in the characters. I lost so much interest that after another 8 days in the book I gave up. There was still over seven hours left in the book, and I knew they were just going to be back ground noise. This was a debut novel and it really needed an editor. Great start, bad follow thru.
"Hard to put down"
After seeing the Swedish version of the movie, which I liked, but which was somewhat slow paced and a little disjointed, and after reading a couple of the reviews, I was worried about purchasing this book, but I'm glad I did. It's more a story about relationships than it is about vampires, and the book cleared up some questions I had about what was going on in the movie.
The book is about children and does include child molestation, but that's not the central theme of the book; nor did the author dwell on it, as a couple of the reviews seemed to insinuate. Such things happen, and avoiding mention of them isn't going to make them go away.
I like this book; the narrator is good, too.
"Unusual theme but a great story."
This is the most unusual story I have read in a long time. If you have seen either the Swedish film, based on this book or the more recent American remake the book will explain what was not revealed in either film. If you enjoyed either version of the films you must read this book!
"Saw the movies. The book is different"
Drawn to this book by the movies. Neither of the movies are close to the pace and shock of the book. I enjoyed how the writer draws you in by not telling you what happens until you see the aftermath of any event.
Definitely not for the faint of heart for vampire readers. Gets into the "reality" of what a vampire body is about. Similar to the movies, I like the explanation of what happens if a vampire enters into a room without being asked to enter.
Good Times!
One of the very best vampire books ever! I literally could not put it down. The narrator was among the best, too. I'd not seen or heard any other works by Lindquist, but his dedication to intricate detail and depth of comprehension of the mind of a pre-teen adolescent was awe inspiring. His insightful treatment of the elderly characters was splendid. I will recommend this to all of my friends...even the ones who don't have a taste for the horrific. Great literature! Go Swedes.
"A very good read!"
I was drawn in early to the story, and it kept me interested until the very end. My only complaint is that the book puts a charactor twist on the young vampire, that the movies or other reviews fail to recognize or acknowledge. I happen to think this twist made the story line less enjoyable, but at least be true to the book when using it elsewhere. I think Lindqvist was trying to make some kind of social statement, but it didn't need to be made here. Worth the credit though.
The best audio book I've ever listened to. I found myself getting up in the night to listen because I had to know what happened next. Very well told. Dark and disturbing - to the extreme at points because it's just so well told. I was immersed. This isn't your bubble gum vampire story. Loved it.
"Slow Paced Thriller"
If you are looking for a fast pace horror novel look else where, this book is slow and at times frustrating. However ultimately it tells an interesting story and is well worth a listen for those who have some patience.
Being set in the '80s is an odd choice but with all the references to Rubik's cubes and leather vests it can be amusing and awkward at times. This story is more about the relationships of the characters than the horror of vampires and this is what helps it stand out as different and worthwhile.
On a technical note I had some issues where the first part would play each chapter twice, this may be isolated to my iPhone as downloading the file again did not help. Also, while I initially did not feel that the narrator was right for the book I soon got past it as the quirkiness of his accent fits in eventually.
"the movie was much better than the book."
It was decent, but the pedo overtones were way more disturbing than the vampires. Also the author cut away from action moments. Reader is good. Movie is better than the book because it focussed on the good parts and trimmed the nonsense out
"Mature Writing vs. Puberty Materials"
After watching the American version of the movie, I really wanted to read the book. It's been on the back burner for a while and I finally broke down and purchased the title. This is not my first introduction of this author. I have read, "Handling the Undead", which was good, but "Let Me In" is what I was waiting for to become a fan of his writing.
Unlike the typical horror story, Lindqvist writes at if it's almost like a dark drama, love story, but without the tween saga. The thriller will gripe you in, where you can't stop turning the pages, or in my case, couldn't stop listening. I usually don't read the book after watching the movie, but in this case, I just knew that the book would be excellent.
This is one of my favorite reads in a while simply because the author could had wrote this book to please teen pop culture, with yucky vampire love and your typical fairy tale, but he didn't. Lindqvist used his own twisted imagination, where the puppy love between the vampire girl and the boy, is not the center point of the plot, but it's a background drop of the story.
After reading this book, one can understand mature writing versus adolescent puberty materials, from the same vampire genre.
The cat scene is awesome. I just wished that it was written in the movie also.

Renita Jablonski: 777 -- certainly not Wall Street's lucky number. That number reflects the worst point drop for the Dow ever after the House failed to pass the $700 billion financial rescue package. Just after the bailout fizzled Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson tried to stop some of the bleeding on Wall Street by putting out a statement. He said he'd do everything possible to protect markets. Like what? Marketplace's Stacey Vanek-Smith takes a look at that as we continue our coverage of the financial crisis.
Stacey Vanek-Smith: The bill maybe dead, but don't write it off just yet, says Charles Gabriel, managing director of D.C.-based Capital Alpha Partners.
Charles Gabriel: Quoting Miracle Max, the character on the Princess Bride, it could be only mostly dead.
Gabriel says that's because there's no way around a bailout bill. He says the government has already tried just about everything else -- like injecting billions into the markets, taking over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and brokering deals to save ailing Wall Street firms. But, Gabriel says, those massive actions barely made a dent.
Gabriel: They've just tried one thing after another. This is the big last arrow in the quiver.
Gabriel says Democrats didn't do enough to rally troops around the bill. He says they wanted to use the crisis to criticize the Bush Administration. And, he says, Republicans didn't want to stand up to their constituents, who don't think the Wall Street turmoil will really trickle down to Main Street.
Gabriel: That is absolutely heading towards the real economy, and this bill was designed to forestall that. And so far, the Congress has rejected it, and that is a disaster.
Gabriel says Paulson has two main options -- one is pressuring lawmakers to pass the bill as is, or making some quick changes to get additional support.
I'm Stacey Vanek-Smith for Marketplace.

Eckstein, Tejada set table for feast at plate
Eckstein, Tejada set table for feast at plate
The 1-2 tandem at the top of the San Diego order of David Eckstein and Miguel Tejada reached base seven times and scored six runs, lifting the Padres to a 9-3 victory to clinch the three-game series in front of 21,966 at PETCO Park.
"That is our job," Eckstein said. "Find a way to get on base, and the big boys will drive you in. [We have] the ability to grind out at-bats and get guys up there with runners in scoring position, and they've been coming through."
The win, combined with the Giants' loss to the Reds, extended San Diego's lead over San Francisco in the National League West to a season-high 6 1/2 games. It also puts the Padres 27 games over .500 for the first time this season, and the first time since 1998.
Eckstein led off the first, third and fourth innings with singles and would come around to score each time. Tejada added two hits, and both players drew a walk.
And the duo was rewarded for getting on base, showing just another example of how the improved Padres offense has helped the team win 13 of their past 16 games to take control of the division in the past two weeks.
In most ways, these are still the same Padres from the first four months of the season. They still have the best pitching staff in baseball, they still run the bases aggressively and they still play outstanding defense.
But the acquisitions of Ryan Ludwick and Tejada have added that extra dose of firepower, and the impact has trickled down to the rest of the San Diego hitters. The Padres are averaging 5.1 runs since Ludwick and Tejada were inserted in the starting lineup, compared to a 4.4 season mark.
"The names have changed, but we're still going to play our game overall with the players we have," Padres manager Bud Black said. "It's nice to add a little power to the lineup."
Tejada provided his own power when he sent a towering two-run homer into the bullpen in left-center, and both he and Eckstein crossed the plate in the third when they started a four-run third inning with a single and walk.
"It was great to see Miggy jump on [D-backs starter Joe Saunders] early and send it to one of the hardest places to hit a homer," Black said.
Eckstein and Tejada would score for a third time when Adrian Gonzalez put the final touch on the night's offensive outburst with a three-run blast to right field in the fourth inning to give the Padres a 9-2 advantage. It was Gonzalez's 156th homer with San Diego, which ties him with Phil Nevin for second on the team's all-time list.
The Padres (76-49) blew the contest open in the third when they sent all nine men to the plate and scored four runs with the help of two errors.
The first miscue came when Stephen Drew bobbled a ground ball off the bat of Chase Headley, allowing Eckstein to score. Rusty Ryal was then charged with a throwing error on a sac fly by Jerry Hairston Jr. that allowed Ludwick and Headley to advance to second and third base. Yorvit Torrealba drove both home when he dropped a single into center field to extend San Diego's lead to 6-1.
"We've done a good job when we're given something to take full advantage of it," Eckstein said. "Chase hit that ball hard up the middle, and it was a tough one, but luckily we were able to score off of that and get a couple more after that. It's one of those things that when you have an opportunity to score, especially against a team like Arizona, you have to take those opportunities."
Wade LeBlanc (8-11) could not retire Drew, who sent two solo shots to right field to record his first career multi-homer game and also added two doubles. But LeBlanc was effective against the rest of the order. In all, he gave up seven hits in 6 2/3 innings and fanned seven to tie his second-highest strikeout total of the season.
"I tip my cap to him," LeBlanc said of Drew. "He got four mistakes, and he didn't miss any of them. Four mistakes too many for a guy like me."
Drew's first long ball, which led off the game, was originally ruled a double, but video replay helped overturn the decision and award Drew the home run.
D-backs starter Joe Saunders (1-4) allowed nine runs (six earned) on eight hits over four innings. He struck out one and walked three.
"It's embarrassing to go out there and give up that many runs," Saunders said. "Hats off to them, they're a good ballclub, but the way I've been pitching I'm making them look like Babe Ruth up there. I've just got to make adjustments."
The victory improved the Padres' record against the D-backs at home this season to 8-0.

Alexa Jones, 18, of Ramona was crowned Miss California Teen USA 2012 at a pageant in Indian Wells on Sunday.
Jones competed in the pageant as Miss Orange County USA and made it to the top among approximately 100 contestants. Her next step is to represent California at the Miss Teen USA 2012 pageant, usually held during the summer in the Bahamas.
Jones, a 2011 Ramona High School graduate, attends California State University, San Marcos. A 2011 recipient of the Ramona Sentinel scholarship, she graduated early from high school and entered college at age 17 as a communications major with plans to go into broadcasting.
Her victory is bittersweet, noted pageant officials, as her father, Mark Jones, was killed in a car accident in November 2011 and she fought grief as she competed for the title.
"She has been recognized for her outstanding leadership and academic achievement as the recipient of multiple scholarship awards," states the Miss Orange County Teen Regional 2012 website.
Her accomplishments and activities listed on the website include earning the President Volunteer Service Award-Gold for her work with community and charitable organizations such as the American Cancer Society, Children's Hospital and Muscular Dystrophy Association. She was a four-year member and captain of the varsity cheer team at Ramona High School.
Jones lives in Ramona with her mother, Teri, 20-year-old sister, Ashlynn, and a 22-year-old brother, Andrew. Her grandparents are Shirley and Mark Jones, also of Ramona.

Congressional Testimony
Good afternoon, Chairperson Norton and Members of the Subcommittee. Thank you for extending an invitation to speak with you about the benefits offered by the creation of green buildings and efforts to make existing buildings more energy efficient.
Supporting a green economy is a top priority at the U.S. Department of Labor. President Obama and Secretary Solis have made the creation and expansion of good green jobs a top priority and believe that green jobs will be a key driver behind America's economic revitalization and sustained economic stability. Green jobs will benefit the American worker by offering good wages, pathways to long-term career advancement, and prosperity.
At the Department of Labor, we are working to support green jobs primarily through investments in the development of quality labor market information about green jobs, investments in training and reemployment services to support the job growth in green industries, and encouraging Registered Apprenticeship in green industries, which include occupations in construction and building retrofitting.
Currently, the Department is making significant investments in the energy efficiency and renewable energy industries, which are closely related to the construction of new commercial and residential buildings, as well as the retrofitting of existing buildings.
An initial step is the investment of $500 million provided under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) to prepare workers to pursue careers in energy efficiency and renewable energy industries. On June 24, 2009, Secretary Solis announced five grant competitions, which will provide for research, labor exchange and job training projects. Four of the competitions are designed to serve workers in need of training through various national, state and community outlets: Energy Training Partnership Grants; Pathways Out of Poverty Grants; State Energy Sector Partnership and Training Grants; and Green Capacity Building Grants. The fifth competition is for State Labor Market Information Improvement Grants that will fund state workforce agencies to collect, analyze and disseminate labor market information and to educate individuals about careers in green industries. Through these investments, the Department is partnering with other Federal agencies to support the creation of jobs by developing a pipeline of skilled workers in the energy efficiency and renewable energy industries. Where possible, the Department's Employment and Training Administration (ETA) encourages applicants for these grants to connect their workforce development strategies to other Recovery Act funded projects that create jobs or impact the skill requirements of existing jobs.
In addition to the significant investment under the Recovery Act, ETA plans to promote training in green industries, including green construction, through its regular programs. For example, ETA is encouraging green construction through its YouthBuild program. This program helps disadvantaged youth gain high school credentials and skill training that leads to employment, while building or rehabilitating affordable housing for low-income or homeless families in poor communities. ETA is providing YouthBuild grantees with technical assistance in green construction techniques, knowledge of, and ability to work with sustainable building products, solar panel installation, and weatherization techniques to ensure that YouthBuild participants are prepared for the green economy and high- wage careers associated with it.
The Department also plans to expand our efforts to place and encourage retention of women in apprenticeship programs in green industries through its Women in Apprenticeship and Non-Traditional Occupations Act (WANTO) program, a program jointly administered by ETA and the Department's Women's Bureau. In recent years, grants awarded under this program have focused on projects to improve the recruitment, selection, training and employment of women in the construction industry.
Further, the Department's Office of Job Corps is taking steps to incorporate green technologies in the future construction and repair of its nationwide network of Job Corps centers. Job Corps also plans to develop and implement green jobs training into the construction curricula at all centers.
The Department is also supporting green job training, skill development, and capacity building through the development of new initiatives. For example, ETA is currently proposing in its Fiscal Year 2010 budget request, the creation of a Green Jobs Innovation Fund which would utilize $50 million to help workers access green training and green career pathways. This proposed initiative would include a variety of strategies, such as: 1) enhanced pre-apprenticeship and Registered Apprenticeship programs in green industries and occupations; 2) competitive grants for Green Career Pathways through post-secondary education and training to reach low income communities, persons with limited English proficiency, and other under-skilled youth and adults; and 3) incentives for partnerships that connect effective community-based organizations in underserved communities with the workforce system and employers to promote career advancement in green industry sectors.
The Department has undertaken several initiatives to enhance knowledge about emerging green industries. The Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), in collaboration with other Federal agencies, is working to define "green jobs". In the Department's recently issued Solicitation of Grant Applications green jobs have been described as jobs in "energy efficiency and renewable energy industries". This description was useful for guiding our initial investments, but does not capture the full range of labor market information in this rapidly evolving area. The development of a definition of green jobs will facilitate the Department's ability to capture and provide high quality labor market information to governments, businesses, individuals and other stakeholders.
Also, the Department funded a report by the Occupational Information Network (O*NET) titled Greening of the World of Work: Implications for O*NET-SOC and New and Emerging Occupations. The purpose of the report was to investigate the impact of green economy activities and technologies on occupational requirements for current jobs and to identify new and emerging occupations. Green construction was one of the sectors studied. The O*NET study identified 17 occupations in this sector, such as welders and insulation workers, where the primary impact would be increased demand as a result of green investments, and notes that while "the work context may change, the tasks themselves do not." Another 19 occupations in Green Construction were identified as ones requiring "Green Enhanced Skills," where green activities and technologies result in a significant change to the work and worker requirements of an existing occupation, such as plumbers, roofers, and sheet metal workers.
Finally, ETA has recently added green building practices to their existing Residential Construction Competency Model. Specific competencies include efficiency competencies, such as the ability to perform home energy audits, and waste management which includes the ability to identify construction materials that can be reused or recycled rather than disposed.
Research shows that green construction jobs will be well-paying jobs. The May 2008 Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates published by BLS indicate that construction and extraction occupations pay a median hourly rate of $18.24 as opposed to $15.57 for all occupations.
The labor market information provided by the Department will be crucial to the private sector as businesses adapt to the emerging green economy. It is anticipated that continued efforts in the public and private sector to reduce energy consumption and other environmental impacts within commercial and residential buildings (such as the Energy Star program sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy) means that occupations dealing with the manufacture of retrofitting products and their installation will continue to be in demand. This increased demand for green retrofitting work coupled with the demand for green building materials is anticipated to increase the need for workers in manufacturing industries as well.
Apprenticeship programs working with industry already have begun to update their curriculum to incorporate an emphasis on green technologies, processes and materials. For example:
- Service Employees International Union has developed green building classes that cover energy usage, water conservation, green cleaning and maintenance.
- Home Builders Institute and the National Association of Home Builders (HBI/NAHB) have developed various green courses including Green Building for Building Professionals, Green Project Management and Advanced Green Building Science.
- Laborer's International Union of North America has created a comprehensive weatherization training program comprised of courses that teach the skills needed to become a weatherization technician, energy auditor or supervisor. Other courses in the program cover general construction, safety and environmental hazards, and life and employability skills.
Industry stakeholders are also working to link pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship programs to improve both consistency and quality while establishing clear expectations for the training provider and the participant:
- The United Association of Plumbers and Pipe Fitters (UA) is an apprenticeship partner in the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organization's new Emerald Cities Initiative that seeks to launch comprehensive building energy efficiency initiatives in urban centers across the country. Helmets to Hard-hats as well as UA's Veterans in Piping Program and their Native American Program are examples of outreach leading to career pathways in UA industries through apprenticeship.
- HBI/NAHB is developing green interim credentials for both its pre-apprenticeship and apprenticeship programs.
To encourage these types of efforts, ETA is conducting a grant competition to fund the development and implementation of apprenticeship standards. These grants will support the expansion of apprenticeship programs in high-growth fields, including green industries.
The Department is coordinating many of its efforts with Federal partners to ensure that investments are strategically targeted and that waste is minimized. One such effort is Labor's partnership with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to bring job training and employment opportunities to public housing residents. Through this new partnership, residents of public housing will be able to more easily find training programs and sustainable employment in the green job sectors created by the Recovery Act. In addition, Secretary Solis and Energy Secretary Steven Chu have been working together to properly leverage Recovery Act investments and to coordinate their efforts to ensure that workers hired for new jobs in weatherization receive proper training.
During a recent visit to job training sites for youth and veterans in California, Secretary Solis visited the Department of Labor's Federal regional office in San Francisco, which is located in one of the greenest Federal buildings in the nation.
Secretary Solis believes that it is important that the Department lead by example and has begun initial talks with the General Services Administration (GSA) to help green our Federal buildings. The Recovery Act provides $4.5 billion to GSA to convert Federal buildings into high performing green buildings, including $3 million for Registered Apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship programs in construction, repair and alteration of Federal Buildings. The Department is working collaboratively with GSA to support these apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship programs. Investing in energy efficient upgrades to Federal buildings around the country will create jobs while substantially reducing American energy use and cut the Federal government consumption.
In conclusion, Department of Labor will continue to work with green building stakeholders at all levels, public and private, to ensure that the economic and environmental benefits of green jobs are widely shared. The Department is pleased to be able to participate in today's hearing, and is available to assist the Committee in any way it can as it continues to examine this issue. This concludes my prepared remarks, and I would be pleased to answer any questions you may have.

All quotes by Joe Brixey
(4 quotes found)
"They were on patrol in a convoy when they were hit by what they told me was a roadside bomb. It wounded him pretty bad."
"He was a fellow that touched a lot of lives around Ferriday. He was a good Christian boy. He loved the church and he loved the Marines, and he made the sacrifice."

Aubrey de Grey posits that in the near future life extension technology will increase average lifespans by a decade. He goes on to hypothesise that in that decade further advances will extend lifespan by more than a decade... and so on... leading effectively to imortality.
- In part this is based on experiments in mice which show a doubling in life span through calorific-restriction. Control their diet, and mice live longer.
- BUT: The mouse experiment with calorific restriction is very misleading. If you actually examine the 'control' mice, the ones fed on a 'normal' diet, you notice that they are obese by normal mouse standards. In the wild there is almost no selection pressure to curb feeding, since the norm is food in short supply.
- AND: The model of accelerating success in life extension is also highly suspect. It is at odds with a model of aging which posits gradual deterioration of all biological systems in the body. Such a model is consistent with observed changes as individuals age. It would mean that successive extension to life would become progressively harder to achieve.
So not everyone concurs with Aubrey's optimism. However, there is likely to be a truly amazing revolution in the biological sciences within the next 50 years. Currently we have the entire genomic sequence of human DNA. We know how to 'read' it at the ABC level. We're just starting to understand the feedback systems. There is going to be a huge synergy here with computer analysis of this DNA data in conjunction with gene-expression data. It is every bit as exciting as if blueprints for an alien piece of technology had fallen into our hands.
Will increased and healthier lifespan come out of this research? Yes, absolutely. The more we understand the more interventions we have for repair.
