((Yes, here it is, Adega's pack event for August. I know it's still technically July but I figured saying it was July's event wouldn't be right though it has been in the making since then. :3 Anyway! Even if you haven't signed up in Adega's plotting thread you're more than welcome! No posting order. I want people to be able to mingle as they wish, and leave if they need/want to. I'm going to leave this up all month, perhaps longer depending on how things are going. So, basically... enjoy!))
Skuld was slowly moving around the small but roomy clearing, making sure everything was in place before people started to show up. There was a large flat rock on one side, where he had placed the pair of rabbits he had caught because it was a convenient place to put them and he figured others would bring prey as well, so they needed lots of space for that. Other smaller, but equally flat, rocks were scattered around the edges of the clearing, perfect tables or seats, whatever they wanted. One near the entrance was almost covered with small red flowers that Dawn had collected in case anyone wanted them.
Speaking of the Heart, she too was in place by the entrance to the clearing, having returned from laying out path markers in the form of arrows made of little stones leading to the gathering place of the ball. Her job, at least for now, was to welcome people as they entered, and he nodded slightly before turning away, looking around once more. Yes, everything was in place and he was ready, his pelt spotless and neatly groomed, eyes bright and eager, and a loop of vines and flowers around his neck for decoration.
Skuld hoped that lots of wolves would come. The more the merrier as they say, and he wanted to bring wolves together. They had gotten so scattered lately it seemed, now would be a time to correct that. With so many getting displaced and others worried about that very thing happening to them, he thought they really needed to forget their worries and relax for a bit. With that in mind he settled himself beside the prey rock, as he had decided to call it, and lifted his eyes to the sky, a howl leaving his jaws and echoing through the trees, a summons and a welcome. Perhaps now would be a test of the old adage "If you build it they will come".
"but that's not the shape of my heart"

She was ever so nervous about this event, seeing as it involved lots of socialization and meeting wolves from other packs. Still, Dawn was honored that she had been chosen to watch the door and greet people as they came in, even if it was a simple job and was possibly only to get her out of the way. Well, she was ready, if hesitant, and once more glanced down at herself as she took up her position beside the chosen entrance of the clearing. The Heart had spent what seemed like ages on her appearance, a rarity for her, but now she was certain that her fur looked nice and neat. Looking up slightly she could make out the bottom of the flower she had managed to stick behind her left ear, which she held carefully to keep the flower in place. It was the only decoration she could come up with for such an event, and had prompted her to decorate the clearing with flowers and place a pile of them near the entrance in case anyone else wanted one.
Hearing Skuld's song, Dawn could not quite resist lifting her own muzzle slightly and joining him, keeping her tone much quieter so as not to interfere. Rumor had it that lots of wolves were going to join them that evening, but she had no idea how many. With luck there would be some friendly faces in the crowd, but Dawn was determined to mingle and meet new people since the perfect opportunity was presenting itself here.
Once the song had faded from the forest Dawn peered into the semi-darkness patiently, thinking she heard pawsteps approaching. The sun was not setting yet, but it was past noon, so there were portions of the forest that were cast in shadows. Fortunately their clearing was well lit, so no one should have any difficulties seeing. Suddenly jolted out of her thoughts, Dawn sniffed the air softly, catching the scent of approaching wolves. Ah yes, they were coming. Her tail wagged excitedly as she waited for the first wolf to appear, ready to do her job and get the ball started.

A multitude of questions arose in the sliver male's subconscious to why he was here. This was not his pack, or their event of sorts but Adega's a pack that was not particularly in the good graces of Sero but not exactly in the bad either. With the fire beginning to grip the Bosque and the migration of all Serons to Sero lake Inu had nothing of grave importance to do. yeas he could be watching the boarders with his amber lenses scanning for signs of the encroaching lake, but the flame where still mild and the pack could not forget about other things like, reconnaissance.
Little birds had told him of a ball, hosted by Adega that was to take place tonight. It wouldn't hurt if he dropped by and did a little talking around, seeing who was there and who the Adegans seemed to be friendly with. There was a few things though that Scott had to take care of before he could attend, espionage was an art form and the sliver behemoth could not attend this event under dressed or unprepared now could he?
His coat was laid perfectly in place; clean, fresh, and groomed into find tendrils. A snug wreath of leaves with small and red flowers was placed firmly around his neck, causing the surrounding fur to intertwine itself producing a handsome accessory. The scruff of three rabbits dangled from his massive cage. Scott had been sure to catch them off of Seron and Adegan territory, he did not need accusations of treason or theft arising today.
Muscular limbs soon had him approaching the jungle clearing. The ivory male could smell the array of scents the Adegans had to offer. From what he could tell there was only two other figures behind the curtain of greenery he now stood in front of. he was one of the first to arrive, good more time for him to chat up the locals. Scott pulled his body through the vegetation border and into the clearing, he gave a curt and polite nod to the female doorkeeper and proceeded to make his way further into the expanse.
Scott's warm orbs found the rock where the other forms of deceased prey laid and neatly placed his own catch upon the smooth grey surface. His mind reverted back to business where were those alphas of theirs, Inu could only place one. Though one alpha was better than none at all, he began to approach Skuld and release deep gruff tones. Good evening Skuld, a fine night is it not? I am Scott Inu, Zeta Aegis of Mortus Sero, but fear not I am only here to enjoy, and if any other Serons produce trouble refer them to me. Inu was only a Zeta, yes but he could still drag them to Torvald for easy punishment, and gain some favor with the Adegans fro his efforts. The man left his brief company and turned his cranium towards the entrance awaiting the arrival of others.

OOC I was thinking they would get off on a friendly foot in the thread, I hope you don't mind him approaching Dawn!
Posted: Aug 2 2012, 06:42 PM
((Sounds good to me! ^_^ ))
Dawn nodded politely in return to the Seron that arrived, the first one to do so, which was a bit to her surprise. Perhaps the other Adegans were scattered or something of that sort. She watched the stranger approach Skuld and introduce himself then, satisfied that there was not going to be any trouble, turned her attention back to the entrance in time to see another, more familiar, male appear from the forest. A smile crossed her face as his words processed, her tail wagging slightly while he approached.
"Oh right, you came here after the meeting. Well Skuld thought we should celebrate how well Adega and the other packs are doing lately and welcome new members, so he decided we should have a ball of sorts," she explained. "It's open to all packs so don't be too surprised if some strangers show up," she continued, nodding towards the Seron who was surveying the clearing, perhaps waiting for some packmates to show up. The more the merrier she thought, turning her attention back towards Constantine. It was good to see him, even if she hadn't known him that long. It was better than sitting around with no one to talk to.
"How have you been?" she asked suddenly, realizing they hadn't really gotten the chance to talk since she had run across him in the forest not too long ago. She hoped he was doing well, he seemed to be in one piece, which was far better than she knew many could say. Already things were turning out better than she would have dared to hope, since she had someone to talk to and their guests were already starting to arrive. It might actually be fun to see who would show up next.

It was no secret that the former Regnum woman was always clean and well-groomed, but she had gone above and beyond the call of duty for this event. Her fur was spotless, shining and in impeccable order. Woven into it at various points were small, blood red roses. They were brighter than her wine-coloured fur, making sure that they caught the eye. Only the best blooms had been picked to take pride of place in the woman's coat. Other than these particular flowers, a basket was held clutched between the Da'Vinci wolf's sharp teeth. Inside were several carefully laid blooms, all of the same deep red hue, all beautiful. They were her offering to the hosting pack, and had Sanctus Regnum still been around, would have held much more weight as a gift than they technically now did. They were, after all, collected from the pack's sacred Hortum Regis. That being said, had the pack still resided there, Vivienne would likely have been banished for attempting such a thing. With the Regnum gone though, she considered the place hers and hers alone, and by that reasoning, the roses were hers to do with as she wished.
For the occasion, she had found out the beautiful necklace that Pollux had gifted to her the last time she had seen him. Set in gold, the emerald nestled comfortably against her chest, held in place by the delicate gold chain looped around her neck. Upon realizing that Pollux had gone missing, the woman had hidden the jewellery at the back of her den. It had been playing on her mind though, and she had ended up finding it out to wear to this ball. And if it seemed to weigh rather more heavily around the girl's neck than it should? Well, that was easily ignored.
Making her way through the trees, the ash and ruby wolf soon found her way into a pleasant enough clearing. A large flat rock at the entrance was covered in a variety of flowers, though Vivienne was pleased to note no roses of the caliber of hers present. Placing the basket down on the edge, she nodded politely to the two Adegans seated nearby before noticing a rather more familiar figure nearby. A smile curved the pale lips, and Vivienne made her way towards the two men.
Manners dictated she greet the hosting Alpha first, so the once-Rosarum halted before the two males and dipped her head to Skuld. "Good evening, Jack," she lilted. "Vivienne Georgette Da'Vinci of the late Sanctus Regnum, at your service." That said, she turned to the other pale male, and brushed her shoulder against his flirtatiously. "Why, fancy seeing you here, my dear. Policing your villainous packmates, are you?"

Much like she had done for the beautiful wedding which felt like it had taken place many many moons ago, Shana groomed herself to perfection for the occasion. For a bit, the Four had felt compelled to do something worth while, and exercised her sentry duties by patrolling the border for any potential trouble makers, but her impatience soon got the best of her, and the russet lass decided she may as well go get ready for the party. The Adegan was quick but precise in her bathing, making sure every little spot upon her pelt was removed so the brown and alabaster gave off nothing but shine. With not much time to spare, the girl gathered some flowers and vines to twist into a small wreath in which she placed atop her skull, ears positioned as to hold the crown in place. Not long ago, the craft would have taken the femme much time, but the one thing she did have patience for was practice. After that, she dug up two peachy pink feathers collected when she was just a child, and stuck them to her tail.
Just as the lass was going to collect something to bring to the gathering, Skuld's familiar howl split the emerald jungle, a message to all to come together for a time of peace and conversation. Bounding off towards the point of the echoing tune, Lashana stopped a few times to collect enough flowers to create a bouquet, a nice gift of thanks to Skuld for putting on the ball. She even sacrificed enough time to hunt a small rabbit, and had a rather humorous time trying to carry both gifts within her small jowls. She had just enough time to spare for thinking over something that had haunted her for a while. With an annoyed scowl, Shana forced the memories of Annie and Bo from her mind, deciding that the ball would be a good chance to distract herself from the idea of leaving Adega in search of her vanished sister.
Perched for a second by the entrance to the clearing, the sentry took a moment to lick over her paws and readjust her crown of flowers. Then, (after fighting once more to carry both the bouquet and the rabbit) the russet femme stepped into the clearing with grace in her delicate step. First giving a friendly nod of the head and wag of the tail to her friend, Dawn, the girl then placed her small offer of prey upon the designated rock. Once that burden was taken care of, Lashana approached Skuld with a smile laced onto leathery lips, dropping the collection of flowers near his feet and giving a graceful bow of respect to the alpha. Thank you for putting together this lovely eveningcame the sing-song words before she seated herself to the side of the ivory Jack, offering all the other guests a cheerful smile. Settling her magenta gaze on a dark furred and smokey-eyed wolf not engaging yet in any conversation, she gave the man a welcoming dip of the head, leaning backwards on her haunches yet maintaining a tall posture as she eagerly waited for someone to strike up a chat. speech

More, had indeed arrived but from what he counted there was only four, and only one face he recognized. That was the face of the two-toned Vivienne. Amber pools followed her movements which finally stopped with greeting Skuld as he had done moments before. Soon though her words were directed at him as he responded to her witty inquiry. Fancy indeed, Vivienne. You could say, that I suppose. He offered her in return.
Glancing back at the entrance he saw no more frames spill through into the clearing, shame he though to himself as he thought it would have been a grand occasion. Never the less he knew one soul and he would take the opportunity to get know the woman a little better. So what brings you here this night? Beside a good time, maybe he would get a different and more intriguing answer, and while he waited his orbs looked over her rose covered pelt.

{{OoC: Not the best post in the world, but I wanted to get Noah in here and waiting for Artemis before the month was up! XD Will post with Vivienne again soon.}}
Noah was late. Cursing himself, he trotted through the jungle, trees flashing by on either side of him. He had been so determined to be on time that he had made his catch of fish the day before, but even then, he had spent so long worrying over how he looked that he'd left the Cove much later than he had intended. He could only hope that Artemis was planning on being fashionably late, also. If she was waiting when he got there, he'd kick himself.
Well groomed and clean, the lad had not adorned himself with any decorations, unlike some of the more fussy women. Instead, he had simply spent the morning making sure he looked presentable. Nerves churned in his stomach and Noah was suddenly glad he had not eaten that morning. The largest of his catch of fish was held between his teeth as he neared the clearing, and upon noticing the chatter of voices, the boy slowed down. Taking a moment to compose himself, he entered the clearing.
A glance around showed no sign of Artemis, and the boy had only a moment of relief before worry kicked in. Was she okay? Had she decided that she didn't want to attend after all? Biting back a stressed whine, the Yahn boy made his way across the clearing to the boulder upon which the prey was laid. Dropping the food, he turned. Lavender eyes quickly caught sight of Dawn and he nodded to her, flashing the girl a quick smile. Quite unable to keep still, the boy began to pace back and forth. He should have brought a gift for his date! Some flowers, or something. Although by the looks of the decorations here, any flowers he might have been able to find would have looked dull by comparison! "Speech!"

A chuckle was given to Scott's ambiguous agreement; always so evasive. She eyed the wreath around his neck with approval. "Well don't you look handsome," she cooed, lifting a dainty paw to bat the accessory playfully. "I do like this." She might be teasing lightly, but there was truth to the words. She would have been disappointed, had he showed up unadorned and ungroomed.
As he asked what had brought her to the gathering, she laughed musically. "Oh, I never could turn down a good party," she sang, throwing her head back so that the chain about her neck swung. "Adega and Sanctus Regnum were allies, so I saw no reason not to attend." Cocking her head, she returned the question. "And yourself? Are you here to enjoy yourself, or just make sure none of your Serons shed innocent blood?"

Oh dear, she was so late! She had bathed in the stream last night, and found some lavander and her walked and rolled in it. Thankfully the fumes had stuck with her over night. She had been digging at a boulder to shorten her nails, and even managed to find some dark mud and ever so gently blinked a few times to make her eye lashes darker. Looking in a small puddle, her features were set ablaze by this small change. Her fur was smooth, soft, and neatly in place. It had taken a while, but she had managed. No longer looking like a small, helpless girl, she now looked like a strong, confident woman. Breathe...
She had managed to find her way to Adega, and heard others talking. She figured this was where they were to meet. She could smell her father here, as well as Noah. Oh no! How awkward this would be, her father watching over her on her first date. A chaparone, perhaps? A small groan left her lips before lifting her head and gracefully walking into the clearing. A smile found her lips as she easly spotted the Yahn boy. Giving a brisk trot she found her way to his side before nudging his chin, then looking over to Skuld. "I suppose I should intorduce myself. Care to join?" Creeping over to him she dipped her head. "Hello sir. My name is Artemis Megara Auralis-Inu, Zeta, and medic of Mortus Sero. Thank you for opening your home to let us gather. It is a pleasure."
" Speak "
Will be slow to reply. A bunch of stuff. My grandmother had a double mastectomy due to stage four breast cancer. She now has to have surgery AGAIN (within 3 days) to have a bloodclot removed. So, I'm going to be spending a lot of time in the hospital. Thanks for understanding.

The woman moved slowly along the path, peppermint gaze lowered to watch where her dainty mitts were placed. She had spent the morning meticulously grooming herself; making sure that every strand was in order and spotless. It had taken her longer to think of something to bring, though the end result had been glaringly obvious all along. The bundle of peppermint leaves in her mouth were blocking out every smell besides the fresh scent. She didnt feel uncomfortable in her own home, but strangers from every pack were being welcomed into the lands without hesitation. It put her a little on edge. Ears were restless on her head as she maneuvered the trail and came ever closer to the gathering. Her heartbeat was thrumming in her chest, her stomach clenching in anticipation. Would he be there? Her stomach flipped and the woman paused her footsteps. What if he didnt show up? Or what if she was too late and he figured she wasnt coming? She picked up her pace, and before long, was halted in front of the opening. Giving a good shake to free whatever had clung to her on her journey over. Taking in a breath, the girl glided in; her eyes on the ground as she moved towards Skuld and dipped her head.
Looking up to the male, she dropped the bundle of peppermint leaves and smiled. Hello Skuld, this looks wonderful, truth be told, the woman hadnt had the guts to actually look around in case Ryker hadnt showed. Offering another smile, the girl picked up the bundle, and moved to set it on the stone. She stood there for a few moments, gathering the courage to actually turn and see who had come. Very slowly, the woman pirouetted, seafoam gaze slowly looking over the individuals that were present. She knew the answer, but she had to look again. Her heart sunk, and the breath she had been holding was let out slowly. Quietly, the girl moved. She skirted around the edge of the clearing, realizing then that everyone had pretty much engaged in conversation. Hesitant on simply going to strike up a conversation with anyone, she hovered for a few minutes before taking a few steps back she sat, and watched. Some of the wolves she didnt know, surprisingly though, the woman had seen most of them if not at the pack meeting, from somewhere else.
Paws were close together, her tail curling to lie on top of the small pads. She spotted Vivienne, and wanted to say hello, though she didnt recognize the white male who was standing with her. She was almost tempted to go sit with Skuld, or anyone really. Her head lowered, her chin tucking closer to her chest, while her eyes shut. He hadnt come. It was simple as that, he had never answered her when she had brought it up, so why had her hopes gone so high? She loved him. Eyes burst open, and her breath caught. She looked around, as if someone had overheard, but she hadnt said anything out loud. The thought had just wriggled into her head. Now it was, blaring in not only her head, but her heart as well. "speech"
Posted: Aug 22 2012, 03:05 PM
Still pacing restlessly, a flash of movement caught Noah's eye and he glanced up, freezing in place as he did. It was Artemis, but not as he had last seen her. The little girl had done... something, that had made her face seem to open up. Her eyes seemed bigger and bluer, while her fur shone. As she approached him and nudged his chin, Noah unfroze and smiled a little shakily. "Sure," he agreed, resisting the urge to reach down and lick the base of her ear affectionately. That would mess up her fur, and he was sure she wouldn't want that.
He followed a step behind the girl, scanning the clearing with hawk-like eyes in search of danger. Finding nothing to worry about, he tentatively relaxed and turned his attention to the large white wolf in front of them. Following his companion's lead, he dipped his head. He waited for her to finish speaking, before rumbling his own greeting.
"Hello sir," he began, very much following the young Seron's example. This was all rather foreign to the unsocialised wolf. "My name is Noah Yahn, and I was an apprentice guardian of Silver Cove until they disbanded." Holding his face immobile, he refused to allow the all too common grief to find a home on his expression. "Thank you."
That done, the younger male took a step back before looking to the smaller yearling. "Are you hungry?" he asked, nodding towards the prey "table". It was too busy to linger around the intimidating Alpha's figure. After all, everybody seemed to feel the need to greet and thank him, upon entering the clearing. "Speech!"

Biography: Part-time starter the past two seasons who finished his senior campaign with 36/3/3 after 20 tackles as a junior when he struggled with a hamstring injury.
Positives: Physically gifted cornerback who's been a very spotty on the field. Engages receivers at the line of scrimmage, displays good recognition in zone coverage and a solid break to the ball. Fights to get off blocks, quickly bursts up the field and makes plays against the run.

Other considerations also favor the large and strong. Product liability insurance is expensive and increasingly a necessity in part markets. Top customer service also can be costly. It is usually conducted most economically when spread over a large scale of operations.
Depending on definitions, there may be 200-1,000 companies in the commercial supply chain business now. Musselwhite predicts there will soon be five or six "very strong players" and the main question is how many of the smaller ones will survive. Scale is essential for "discriminators" like breadth of service and geographic reach, so "integration is proceeding rapidly," Musselwhite says. Of the Kellstrom-AirLiance combination he firmly believes, "one plus one equals three."
That seems to be the view of most experts in this tricky parts distribution business. "Yes, we will see more consolidation, in both new and surplus parts," predicts Michele Dickstein, president of the Aviation Suppliers Association. Dickstein has been seeing consolidation in new-part markets for a couple of years and says it started to happen in used-part markets about a year ago as several engine manufacturers purchased companies in California and Texas.
Dickstein attributes the pickup in consolidation to two major factors. The first factor is that part vendors are trying to meet customer demands for broader offerings. Second, there is more capital and it can be obtained fairly easily. "Capital distrusted aerospace before. Now they are backing these guys with money."
So Dickstein expects the current consolidation to continue. But she does not believe there is any minimum scale necessary to be a competitive part dealer. "Small companies can still carve out a profitable niche. But scale is an advantage, and sometimes large companies are more efficient."
And companies are not just growing larger, they are offering more services. The Aviation Suppliers Association is seeing more part dealers offer repairs and repair management, especially for rotables. "That ties into cost-per-hour contracts, and these are becoming more prevalent," Dickstein says.
While expecting more consolidation, Dickstein acknowledges that the other major recent merger, Diversified Aero Services' acquisition of Aero Inventory, was a surprise. "DASI was not a big player, and Aero Inventory had very major stocks. That was a surprise for everyone."
Wayne Mihailov, DASI chief commercial officer and former Aero Inventory executive, was not surprised by the deal. And he is confident it makes perfect sense. "DASI with this acquisition changes the game," Mihailov argues. "They were very good at consistently finding the right aircraft and right parts to buy. There were no ghost parts, what they listed they had. Now Aero Inventory takes DASI global, into the U.K. and Asia. Aero Inventory brings $400 million worth of inventory and an e-commerce platform second to none."
Aero Inventory grew fast and flew high until the recession hit in 2007-09, leaving it with surplus parts and stingy capital markets to finance them. The result was bankruptcy and some major restructuring before the company was acquired by DASI. One of DASI's strengths is liquidating surpluses, and capital loosened up considerably. Furthermore, Mihailov says DASI has simply been smart at spotting the parts that will be in short supply and picking them up at the right price and time.

How to unlock the GTA 5 hunting missions
Only Trevor can hunt for cash rewards so the first thing you need to do is unlock him. To do this, progress along the main missions line with Michael and Franklin until you pull off the jewelry store heist. This will unlock Trevor. Now go to the orange question mark and talk to Cletus. The first mission is basically showing you how to use the sniper rifle. You'll shoot three satellite dishes, three car tires, and finally a couple of coyotes. In order to get 100% you need to shoot all three satellite dishes for the bad signal objective. You'll then have to shoot four tires with a 75% accuracy (you can only miss once) for the target practice pop pop objective. Finally you have to kill two coyotes with one shot for the 2 for 1 objective. Fortunately there is no time limit for this mission so you can use patience to line up the right shots. One you've completed mission one with Cletus head to the northern shore and meet him for mission two.
Cletus will give you an elk caller that will allow you to identify where the animals are. stay downwind and shoot four male elk to complete this mission. In order to get 100% you need to shoot all the elk in in the heart to pass the fair game heart hunter objective. Make sure you are down wind (the arrow will be red) while shooting the elk to pass the downwind objective. You can now do the GTA 5 hunting missions.
After passing the mission the hunting outfit will apear in Trevor's closet and the different hunting locations will be shown on the map. Go to the locations, shoot the animals, take their picture with your cell camera, and send them to Cletus. He will then pay you properly for the meat.
If you have any problems with this GTA 5 hunting mission you can visit Rockstars support page on the subject here.

Friday 06.07.12 - 12:00 - Odeon
In 2012 we're giving you another dietary supplement from the swampy US Southern states, filled to the brim with toxic heavy metal and questionable types of tobaccos. The initiated call it sludge.
You could also simply describe Weedeater's sound as a groovy cross between AC/DC and Black Sabbath, played by a group of bong heads with a Dixie flag hanging in the rehearsal room.
Front man "Dixie" Dave and his cronies are without a doubt good-natured Southern folks – the band's first album was called ... And Justice For Y'all with a howdy to Metallica's classic. The music, however, is a deadly mixture of fast riffs, whipped drums and growling vocals.

Band schedule is ready in May
Roskilde Festival releases the time schedule in May, if everything works out at least somewhat according to plan.
We don't do it until then to make the best schedule possible for our audience. When we, for various reasons, are forced to make changes late in the process, we have a better chance at putting together a programme that considers both the spreading of genres, the performer's touring plans and safety at the festival.

You ought to take a closer look at your old wheel hub assembly if your ride starts to shake excessively on the road. The Plymouth wheel hub shields the bearings that allow your vehicle's wheels to properly rotate. You should act quickly once you observe that the wheel hub in your Plymouth is in awful form or you'll be in peril on the highway. Doing the replacement yourself as opposed to shelling out for a mechanic would save you lots of money.
You'll know your old ride's Plymouth wheel hub needs replacing when the wheels are shaky or if they pull to the side when you engage your brakes. To take off your bad factory-installed wheel hubs, you must locate the recommended jack stand points of your automobile then place it on jack stands. Here's a tip: don't ever use a hammer when removing a tight hub because you will only mess up stock CV joints. Do some road tests after setup to find out if there is any irregularity with your new hub for your Plymouth .
Parts Train has a massive catalog of high-quality Plymouth auto components from popular names in the business, say, like Replacement, FPD and Ishino that countless drivers have depended on for a long time. You could easily see a high-quality wheel hub replacement on our website as it's meticulously designed to make transactions much simpler. We've got dedicated professionals who will punctually ship your new hub as soon as you make that order online. Do away with your corroded factory wheel hub as soon as possible before anything tragic happens on the highway.

Is Mack Brown safe at Texas?
College Football: What to Watch
New Texas A.D. doesnt expect 'monstrous' changes
November 7
By BLAIR KERKHOFF
The Kansas City Star
New athletic director Steve Patterson was introduced on Thursday and said a broom wasnt needed.
I dont anticipate monstrous changes to the department, said Patterson, who spent the previous 18 months as Arizona States athletic director. I think we need to keep doing what we do well and find places where we can grow.
Speculation on Browns future swirled after the Longhorns two-game losing streak in September knocked them from the national championship picture. But Texas rides a five-game winning streak into Saturdays game at West Virginia, and finds itself in the strongest position to win a Big 12 title since 2009.
Texas president Bill Powers said that Browns future, or that of mens basketball coach Rick Barnes, wasnt discussed during the interview process.
I dont see this as an organization thats over in the ditch, said Patterson, who has worked in the NBA and NFL and takes over for DeLoss Dodds around Dec. 1. Its a great place that has had tremendous success for a long time. I just hope to continue to grow that.
Saturdays SEC games
• Auburn at Tennessee, 11 a.m. on ESPN: Before the season, Georgias Todd Gurley and Alabamas T.J. Yeldon were seen as the leagues top backs. South Carolinas Mike Davis came on strong, and now Auburns Tre Mason is the next big thing. He rushed for 168 yards and four touchdowns against Arkansas last week and has 921 yards this season, carrying the load for the SECs top rushing offense.
• Vanderbilt at Florida, 11 a.m. on Fox Sports KC plus: Another week, another season-ending injury announced by the Gators, this time offensive tackle Tyler Moore is out after suffering a fractured elbow in a scooter accident. Patton Robinette, who opened the year as Vanderbilts third-team quarterback, starts for the second straight game. The Commodores havent won in Gainesville since 1945, or anywhere against Florida since 1988.
• Missouri at Kentucky, 11 a.m. on ESPNU: Will James Franklin play for the Tigers? The Mizzou quarterback has missed the last three games becuase of a shoulder injury, and if hes ready to go, look for him to play. Mizzou leads the SEC in sacks (27), interceptions (17) and turnover margin (plus-15).
• Arkansas at Mississippi, 11:21 a.m. on KSMO (Ch. 62): The Razorbacks want to keep things deliberate. The Rebels want to run and should be able to play this game at their pace. Arkansas losing streak is up to six games and has lost the past three by a combined 139-24 score. It appears freshman defensive end Robert Nkemdiche will be back for the Rebels after missing the past two games because of a hamstring injury.
• Appalachian State at Georgia, 11:30 a.m., no TV: This isnt the NCAA champion and Michigan-beating Appy State. The Mountaineers are 2-7 and shouldnt provide much resistance. Gurley, who was ill and injured during last weeks victory over Florida, is expected to play.
• Mississippi State at Texas A&M, 2:30 p.m. on CBS (Ch. 5): The Aggies need plenty of help to win the SEC West, but theyre in the thick of BCS at-large consideration. Wouldnt a major bowl love to have the games most dynamic player? Its A&Ms final home game, which means its probably Johnny Manziels final game in College Station. Like most of the Aggies foes, the Bulldogs should score but not enough to keep up.
• LSU at Alabama, 7 p.m. on CBS (Ch. 5): Its not the game we thought it might be in the preseason, but it should be a good one. LSU isnt in the national championship picture and has seemed listless in the last couple of games. But the Tigers will be up for this one. This is a trench warfare game, but look for LSU and quarterback Zack Mettenberger and wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry to test the Crimson Tides thin secondary.
Saturdays Big 12 games
• TCU at Iowa State, 11 a.m. on Fox Sports KC: The Horned Frogs had great success on the road last season. Not this year as TCU seeks its first road victory. Both programs are desperate for a reversal. The Frogs have lost three straight, the Cyclones five in a row, and theyve gone about it in different ways. TCUs having trouble scoring and Iowa State cant seem to stop anybody.
• Kansas State at Texas Tech, 11 a.m. on ABC (Chs. 2, 9): What a difference Tyler Lockett and Tremaine Thompson have made. The wide receivers missed time earlier this season, but their return has coincided with the Wildcats turnaround thats produced two straight victories. The Red Raiders, after starting 7-0, have lost two in a row, but tight end Jace Amaro keeps putting up the big numbers. He has 79 receptions for 1,035 yards.
• Kansas at Oklahoma State, 3 p.m. on Fox Sports 1: It has taken more than half a season but the Cowboys offense is rolling. Quarterback Clint Chelf and running back Desmond Roland have Oklahoma State in high gear, helping the Pokes to 110 points in the past two games. For Kansas, its the same story, trying to keep things close for as long as possible.
• Texas at West Virginia, 6 p.m. on Fox (Ch. 4): The Longhorns make the first trip to West Virginia in the programs history and they feel like they owe the Mountaineers after last seasons 45-41 loss in Austin. If it comes down to a field goal, West Virginia could have the edge. Josh Lambert has made 10 of 12 field goals in league play. Some of the leagues top running backs will be featured: Texas Johnathan Gray (90.5 yards per game) and Malcolm Brown (four touchdowns against Kansas) and West Virginias Charles Sims (83.8).

Paulie returned home with help of kind stranger
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (WMAR) - An Anne Arundel County boy wandered outside in the middle of the night. He was returned to his parents safely thanks to the help of an off-duty firefighter and Anne Arundel County Police.
Paulie Marshall, Junior is an active three year old. He's also lucky. Paulie left his house around 3:30 in the morning last week. Wearing only a t-shirt and underwear he went walking down the street.
Andy Hoffman is a Baltimore City paramedic and firefighter. He was off-duty when he spotted Paulie. Hoffman asked him what was wrong and where he lived, and all Paulie could do was point up the road.
Anne Arundel County Police were called in. Corporal Stephen Taylor was the first officer to arrive. He thought Paulie was lost, but Paulie knew exactly where he was going. He was just a block away from his grandparents' house.
Paulie's mom Kristen was asleep and dad Paul was at work when Paulie wandered off.
Corporal Taylor drove Paulie around pointing at houses, asking if they were his. Paulie told him no. Police finally found a neighbor, who called Paulie's dad to see if his son was missing. Dad didn't think Paulie was missing, until the neighbor sent him a picture of his son sitting in a police car.
Police finally found the right address, and Paulie made it safely back home.

Diner Reviews
I have been going here before or
after Giants games for a few years, and I have never been disappointed. The staff is attentive, and they all make sure the experience is exceptional. The food is terrific, and I know that when I go back I am in for a treat. I love the polenta as an appetizer. No matter how the game turns out, I am in for a win at La Briciola!"

Mediocre location. Really good
food that tasted fresh. Some nice daily specials added to a good selection of apps, pasta, and meats. Restaurant is tastefully if minimally decorated. Wine list is average at best."

My husband is Italian and this is
one of the only Italian restaurants he really loves in the U.S. so far. Also, it's a total gem for the neighborhood, with reasonable prices, good quality, and authentic and pleasant ambience. Really worthwhile."

I enjoyed the lunch we had at La
Briciola. The grilled squid appetizer was fantastic! I definately would recommend to others as it was a nice, uncrowded location for a business lunch."

Very nice food, great wine list.
What a great place this is. You know when you're at the right Italian restaurant when there are lots of Italian guests. Quality of my meal was excellent, and the prices are very fair. I would highly recommend this restaurant."

Four of us had dinner there last
Friday evening. What a delightful surprise!!! Looking for a restaurant close to the theater we were going to. The food was yummy, great service (brought our own bottle of wine) but did try a Pinot Grigio, which was outstanding! Cesar salad was very good, Spinach salad good, Red Snapper excellent, Lasagna different than we've ever had before but again excellent! Dipping oil for your bread was outstanding----too full for dessert but was served lemoncello again perfecto! The service was great---someone always watching over you but unobtrusive. Not a large restaurant, which helps with the noise level. Definitely off the "beaten path" we'll be back!"

My family (2 adults, 10yo, 7yo)
had dinner at La Briciola. I was surprised to find a good Italian restaurant on 3rd street near the freeway in SOMA. The interior is very pleasant and tasteful. Our children were well treated by the staff. The food is more northern Italian in style. The polenta crostini appetizer (with tomatoes, portobello, and pate on 3 different pieces) and the burrata cheese (with a small salad and sopressata) were excellent. The Primi and Secondi portions were of good size. The handcut pasta with lamb ragu was excellent. The pork saltimbocca was a bit too salty but otherwise tasty. The only disappointment was the gnocchi which felt almost "flour" on the palate. The wine list was well selected to match the food."

This is the second time I brought
visitors to La Bricola. The first time it was quite laid back and casual, This time, on a Wednesda night, the restaurant was full and pretty noisy. There were several large groups and the atmosphere was lively. However that made it tough to have a dinner conversation. Not sure if this is the new normal for the restaurant. Oh yes, the food--very good and enjoyed by all. The waiters were fine and fairly attentive despite being busy."
Dined on 2/26/2014
I wanted to love this place. The
staff is warm and friendly. The service is excellent. The restaurant is quiet and cozy, and our table was a perfect set up for the 8 of us. But my entree, porcini tagliatelle was just ok. The other entree I tasted, seabass ravioli was also just ok. Given how great everything else was, I thought the food would be excellent. In hindsight, it's a good 'grab dinner before going to the Metreon' type of place and not really a special occasion type place."

I was looking for an authentic
Italian restaurant with good seafood, and found it in La Briciola. The location is a little off the beaten path, but well worth the walk from Union Square. The service was warm and attentive. The salmone affumicato (smoked salmon) was outstanding! Next came the pennette al granchio con la rucola (pasta with lobster), and it was similarly delicious. The final course was Tagliata di tonno al sesamo (tuna with sesame seeds) - of the three it was my least favorite; It was too heavily sauced for my taste, but my dining companion loved it. Dinner was topped off with their soufflé al cioccolato - a lovely dark chocolate (flourless?) cake that approached ganache in its texture; amazing!"
Dined on 2/18/2014
It was very crowded but we got
good service. I had a generic glass of red wine while waiting and it was not something I'd ever want to drink again. This is part of the reason for the three stars. The wine list, though, had good ones, and some reasonably priced. You would not go here for the ambience, of which there is really little, but for good Italian food in the neighborhood, it is definitely worth a try."

M wife and I had a wonderful
dining experience. We plan on going back again and again to try the whole menu! I especially recommend the best server in the world....Giovanni Mennella. He made our experience extra special!"

Excellent food. Some of the best
Italain I've every had. The only drawback, which is not the fault of the restaurant, is the noise level from the busy streets."

Se si preferisce il vostro ottimo

We had a friend in from out of
town and wanted a fun place that wasn't one of the usual suspects (North Beach, Fisherman's Wharf, Original Joe's). La Briciola fit the bill perfectly. Centrally located, great food, pleasant ambiance. My wife exclaimed that she had the "best" Ceasar Salad she had ever had. Strongly recommend La Briciola."

I had the good fortune of meeting
executive chef Gianluca Toschi a few years ago through an Italian colleague here on assignment from Milano. I work for an Italian company and every time I would take a visiting colleagues out for Italian food in SF they would scoff at me saying "this is not the food of my country". After meeting Gianluca and dining at his restaurant I can finally bring anyone to his place for a truly authentic Italian experience. Best food outside of Italy I've ever had!! You will not be disappointed!"

This is the second time we have
been to La Briciola and I must say we tried different items on the menu and it was fabulous. The food is fantastic and the wait staff is attentive and courteous. You cannot go wrong coming to this restaurant, it is a definite spot to take out of town guests and close friends and family. Both times we have gone we brought our own wine but they have an extensive wine list that would serve you well. The corkage fee is reasonable and they wasted no time opening the our bottle. This will not be the last time we come to this restaurant, truly a gem."

We chose to eat at La Briciola
after going to Cirque du Soliel because we could walk from AT&T park. I was also longing for a more intimate dining experience in SF -- smaller space, more warm and quiet, lower ceilings, table cloths, etc. La Bricioloa had that old world charm and the service was excellent. The food was good-- the pastas homemade and the sauces nice. We had a spinach ravioli, sea bass Ravioli, and our guests had fish--all with some type of red sauces. we exchanged tastes, it all tasted pretty similar maybe that's because none of us selected the meat dishes (they offered just a few and were out of the rabbit by 7pm) or to the various pasta sauces that included cream. I will try it again but diversify our order next time."

Went with a group of 7 - Staff was
attentive and gave an excellent wine recommendation - Primitivo. Four of us were vegetarians and the homemade pumpkin ravioli was wonderful. The Tagliatelleai porcini e tartufo had wonderful flavor although the pasta was a little too al dente for me - hence the 4 stars. Our friend from out of town loved the gnocchi and the roast chicken was perfectly done. We had 3 dessert all were fabulous - tiramisu, panna cotta and warm chocolate cake."

We had a wonderful NYE dinner at
La Briciola. Reservation was on time with no wait. Food and service was amazing. The Barletta was amazing..would def. come back for that and the lamb chops. Great find! Service was fast and observant. Well def. come back."

We dined here with family visiting
from out of town (and local family as well) before attending the Cirque du Soleil show at AT&T Park. The food was great, and the service also. The wait staff is quite friendly, accommodating, and engaging. It was quite convenient to the performance venue. A nice evening for us all around!"
Dined on 12/27/2013
I met a tardy friend for lunch
here. While I waited for her I was served bread with a delicious olive & olive oil tapenade dip. Maybe the waiting a pleasure. For lunch we shared the Linguini Cinque Terra and the Linguini Melanzana. The Cinque Terra was a pesto pasta with potatoes and greenbeans as would be served on the Cinque Terra. Their version was delicious and took me back to the little cliff-side restaurant in Monterosso where I first had the dish. The Melanzana was an eggplant and mushrooms in a tomato pased sauce. It was mild but very tasty. This was my first trip to this restaurant -- I picked it based on Open Table ratings -- but I'll definitely be back."
Dined on 12/23/2013
First time at this place. We were
looking to make a reservation for a group of 8 after a show at AT&T Park and few places offered a table at 10pm. We took a chance and were not disappointed....a warm reception from the owner, Allesandro and great food and great service!"
Dined on 12/7/2013
La Briciola, which means "a
crumb," gave us a great meal and warm, friendly and professional service. The food was wonderful, if heavy on the porcini and truffles, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. From start to finish, it was a delightful experience with an attentive but unobtrusive server and genial host. They also gave us complimentary icy limoncellos."
Dined on 12/1/2013
The service was very good, chatty,
and casual. The menu is divided into a daily menu, and then a more general regular menu. Second, there are my choices. Wine: 2010 Sangiovese La Carraia, Umbria, Italia: raspberry, cherry, and pepper, with balanced acidity, medium body, and moderate tannins...smooth, mild, and well-flavored. Orecchiette con salsiccia e rapini ear-shaped pasta~sausage~ broccolirabe~olive oil. The pasta was al dente, not sausage mild, the vege semi-crisp, and the sauce left plenty of room to taste the ingredients. Needless to say, I finished the plate. Rockfish (special), nicely sauced, semi-crisp veges, and very nice creamy mashed potatoes. Very well flavored and tender."

Love the services and meals are
delicious as well, I will come back again for sure."

La Briciola was everything I hoped
it would be. We had a group of 6 for a reunion. The food here is just wonderful, and the wine list is put together with skill. There are great wines for reasonable prices, and the staff steers you right. The lamb ragout pasta dish is one of the best pasta dishes I have had. Great time and so glad we went."
Dined on 11/18/2013
We had an early dinner before
heading to a concert downtown and tried La Briciola. Our food was good, really tasty homemade pastas are probably the highlight. The only downside here is location, underneath I-80 in a pretty industrial part of SoMa. If you are willing to trek down to it, it's a great value and really nice folks who take care of you."
Dined on 10/12/2013
We had some definite high points
with our meal. The service was impeccable, the space was cozy and romantic, but the food was uneven. We love octopus and ordered it as an appetizer. Our waiter told us that not many people like octopus, but we do, so we gave it a try. Maybe he meant not many people like their octopus. It was pulpy and chewy. The waiter graciously replaced it with some tasty salmon carpaccio. I was disappointed that there were only three fresh pastas that our waiter steered us to. Why not make fresh orecchiette as well? Good wine, but no liquor license."
Dined on 11/14/2013
Service was fantastic! Everyone
very warm and accommodating. Food was terrific and it was a wonderful place to sit and talk and enjoy. We were never hurried, and the place is cute as a button. Would definitely recommend to a friend!"

Being a yankee (the people, not
the sports team - go Sox) I've spent many an evening in Boston's North End. My favorite is the Daily Catch on Hanover Street. Seafood caught that day made into Italian meals. This place reminds me of the Daily Catch in that their seafood based meals were done very well - fresh and clean. Pasta was very good, too; thin and tasty, not too doughy. The ambiance is good and the noise level is reasonable. I had the burrata starter which was exceptional - buttery, flavorful and the portion was actually too big. A good starter to split for two. Service was slow. We waited for everything. But I will return."

As always, La Briciola is
fabulous. Start to finish a great dining experience!"

Whenever we want good pasta , good
service, and a quiet dinner where we don't have to yell at each other, we dine at Bricola."

We had an excellent time and will
make it part of our routine going forward."
Dined on 10/31/2013
When we arrived, the restaurant
had about 5 other people in it. We placed our orders (3 of us), appetizers came out about 10 minutes later, but then we and proceeded to wait for 40 minutes before our mains arrived. The waiter was indifferent that we were there. All of it was pretty bland & generic Amer-talian. I have no need to go back."

So, I decided that before I finished more individual divisions, I should do records for the whole NFL. I'm sure ESPN hopes I'm right because if I am, they'll have plenty to talk about leading up to the play offs, particularly dealing with tie-breakers. Fun stuff those tie-breakers.....
D= Division Winner
W=Wild Card
*Seattle, Philadelphia and Carolina all have 8-8 records. Unfortunately they do not all play each other Carolina and Philadelphia do not play each other in the regular season, but both play and lose to Seattle. I think this would result in Seattle getting the wild card spot with the win loss record within the NFC determining the order in which Carolina and Philadelphia draft. This was determined following the rules posted at http://www.nfl.com/standings/tiebreakers.
Playoff rankings.
1: San Diego Chargers**
2: Baltimore Ravens**
3: New England Patriots **
4: Indianapolis Colts
5: New York Jets
6: Tennessee Titans
** I'm kicking myself for having this happen...The Patriots lose to both the Ravens and the Chargers, The Ravens beat the Patriots but lose to the Chargers, and the Chargers beat both the Ravens and the Patriots during the regular season. Therefore, according to the rules at the site above, the order would be as above based on Head to Head W-L%
1: Chicago Bears
2: Dallas Cowboys
3: New Orleans Saints
4: San Francisco 49ers
5: Atlanta Falcons
6: Seattle Seahawks
*** Yeah...more tiebreaker fun. New Orleans and Dallas do not play one another, so the tie breaker becomes their record against NFC opponents. Dallas has (10-2), while New Orleans has a (9-3)
AFC Record (131-125)
NFC Record (125-131)
So my surprise team for the year is the 49ers. I know they've lost some coaching personnel, but Alex Smith is showing signs of finally breaking through, and Frank Gore is probably one of the top 10 backs, in my opinion. They did decent in the draft, shored up their defense. Don't want to get into to much here...this post is long enough as it is.
There is a chart that has my picks, game by game. I don't particularly feel like posting a reason for each game, so I may hold off on posting the entire list. But if I get a bunch of questions, or requests, I can throw it out. Ask questions about particular teams if you want....I can turn them into blog posts. Read, respond, question my sanity, but try to keep a level head...flames with out reason will be ignored. Angry flames with reason will be talked about...but I probably won't change my opinion unless something is brought up that I didn't think about.
