The AIRAID Jr. Kit may be the simplest and most economical way to improve your vehicle's performance. For not much money and a few minutes installation time, this kit will improve throttle response and boost horsepower and fuel mileage.
The improvement starts with a Direct-Fit, Replacement SynthaFlow air filter, installed in your factory airbox in place of the OEM filter. This filter is over 99% efficient, meaning it allows more airflow while filtering out dirt particles ordinary filters let pass. You get better performance without sacrificing air filtration. And it's made with 304 stainless steel mesh, for exceptional durability. The strength of the stainless steel won't allow the filter to bow in the center, allowing unfiltered air into the engine.
The SynthaFlow air filter is a cotton-gauze and synthetic blend that outperforms plain cotton-gauze in clean air testing. The SynthaFlow features "five layer" filtration, with 4 layers of cotton-gauze supplemented by "the last layer of defense", a layer of synthetic media that produces the cleanest air of any washable filter. The filtering media is held together by epoxy coated aluminum wire mesh, specially designed to provide the optimum balance between maximum airflow and peak filtration.
The modular air intake tube is made of high density polyethylene, which is less affected by engine heat than steel or aluminum tubing. The shape of the tube is computer designed to "straighten out" and improve airflow to the engine versus the stock air inlet system, for better throttle response and increased horsepower and torque. It's connected with durable, urethane couplers and stainless steel clamps.
The AIRAID Jr. Kit comes complete with everything necessary for installation, including comprehensive instructions. And it's backed by AIRAID's "No Hassle" warranty. There are no limitations or fine print here. Simply, if you're ever dissatisfied with the materials, workmanship, or performance of this air intake system, just send it back... period! You don't have to worry about a proof of purchase or a warranty card. AIRAID air intake systems are warranted for life.
181.90Brand: Airaid Part Number: 200-796 UPC: 642046207960AIRAID® was founded in 1997 when they began developing and manufacturing air intake systems for light trucks and SUVs, utilizing the cotton-gauze filter technology that was available at the time. These systems increased airflow and performance while being easy to install, and sold so well that the company soon realized that another source of filters was necessary. They believed they could produce a better quality filter using new technology and state-of-the-art materials, and so in 2002 the AIRAID Filter Company was formed. Today AIRAID is the recognized leader in air management technology. Extensive research and development has allowed AIRAID to come to market first with high quality products that improve drivability and performance.

Such is our suspicion, though, of Ministries of Culture, a foreign concept like Ministries of Justice or the Interior, that Chris Smith had to tack on two other words to soften the impact.
In popular perception there are only two kinds of culture, high and low, and the Government's involvement in either of them is deeply suspect. First, there is high culture, which is oil paintings and opera, where the role of government is to tax honest, hard-working folk of modest means in order to subsidise the pleasures of toffs. Then there is low culture, which is sport and pop music, where the role of government is to have its senior members pose for the cameras in the company of the currently fashionable stars in the hope that this will attract votes - a ploy which has a tendency to backfire.
Tony Blair should have known New Labour's New Luvvies would turn on him as soon as they had emptied the Downing Street cellars, just as John Prescott should have expected his street cred to be doused with a bucket of cold water. Rock musicians are not supposed to approve of politicians; just as you would not ask a politician to compose rebellious music.
Yesterday's hint that Gordon Brown will act to ensure free entry to the great national museums and art galleries is a much more substantial gesture, not because it is "high" rather than "low" culture, but because it suggests an appreciation of culture which is deep rather than shallow.
The Independent and The Independent on Sunday have campaigned for free entry because we see the country's great cultural institutions as part of our communal life, our public space, offering everyone the chance to discover things they might not choose to pay for.
We are pleased to see that this ideal still has some hold on our national leaders. It seems that, in their drive to modernise socialism, they have not in fact forgotten its early values. Many of its 19th-century thinkers, from the early Marx to William Morris, spoke about art as the form of work by which people could be ennobled and uplifted.
This should be the response both to left-wing philistinism, which sees culture as an elite activity, and to liberal scepticism, which associates a ministry of culture with state propaganda. We have to reclaim inclusiveness, seeing culture as the description of a fuller life for everyone, and reclaim a liberating role for the state.
Philosophically, the answer to the philistines is in Mr Blair's own constitution for his party, the new Clause IV, which declares that "by the strength of our common endeavour, we achieve more than we achieve alone": a public library is testimony to a stronger society than a private one, just as a free school, museum or art gallery is. It creates "for each of us the means to realise our true potential" which creates "for all of us a community".
But this should be the start, not the end, of debate. We welcome Gerry Robinson's decision to sack all the members of the Arts Council. There can be no going back to the period when fossilised art galleries and musty museums found themselves overtaken by television, when bleating for handouts stifled creative energies. There is more than a hint of this is the whingeing of Oasis's manager that such great talent could never have flowered if the band had not been allowed to do whatever it liked on the dole for as many years as it pleased.
But let us have an open argument about the boundaries. If the Science Museum and the Natural History Museum should be free, why should we pay pounds 17.50 for the Millennium Experience?
Mr Blair's emphasis on unleashing the creative talent of the British people is absolutely right. These cultural skills increasingly drive the nation's economy. Labour politicians ought to be seen more with artists, popular scientists, writers, computer software designers, architects and commercial directors - instead of consorting with the shallow cult of football. On the eve of a "Budget for women and children" the Chancellor sent a strange signal by endorsing the New Lad culture, watching Tottenham Hotspur from the directors' box at White Hart Lane.
Let the Government promote an inclusive notion of culture, high and low, and use that to convince us that it is not simply concerned with surface perceptions but a deeper, fuller life for all.

Exceptionalism: While the American space program is in a museum, Beijing orbits a nearly 9-ton space station module. Soon men will return to the moon, but they will likely be speaking Chinese.
While America was scanning the skies waiting for an aging satellite to fall to earth, China was looking to the skies and seeing its future.
On Thursday, Beijing launched into space aboard a Long March 2F rocket a space station module weighing 8.5 metric tons that will serve as a prototype for a 60-ton Chinese space lab to be in orbit by 2020.
Americans may yawn and say "been there, done that" and, besides, we have other things on our plate right now. But this latest nail in the coffin of American exceptionalism has serious implications for both U.S. leadership and security. China's space program is intimately connected to its military aspirations, and it views space as a venue for more than tadpole experiments.
Not long ago, Capt. Shen Zhong of the Chinese Navy Research Institute said: "The mastery of outer space will be requisite for military victory, with outer space becoming the new venue for combat."
Certainly the Chinese development of an operational anti-satellite program speaks to Beijing's view that space is not a demilitarized zone.
The Tiangong 1 module is expected to remain in orbit for two years. China, the third nation after Russia and America to put humans into space, plans to launch two Shenzhou spacecraft in 2012 for unmanned docking trials. A third may carry a crew to populate the Tiangong 1.
Speaking on "Your World with Neil Cavuto" last week, former astronaut Gene Cernan said: "The thing about the Chinese is they know where they're going and they know when they're gonna get there. They have a plan, they have a mission."
Cernan is the last man to walk on the moon and, at the rate things are going, that may have to be changed to the last American to walk on the moon.
Cernan said, "We don't have the capability today to put a human being in space of any kind, shape or form, which is absolutely, totally unacceptable when we got the greatest flying machine in the world sitting down at Kennedy in a garage there with nothing to do."
He was speaking of the space shuttle, an old but arguably serviceable spacecraft.
NASA, which today monitors climate change and engages in Muslim outreach, has announced plans for a "Space Launch System," or SLS, to take astronauts to nearby asteroids and Mars in the planned six-person Orion space vehicle.
Nuclear Option: The first spoil of Harry Reid's shredding of the Senate's historic filibuster rules has been confirmed to the D.C. Circuit. Patricia Millett is another radical activist masquerading as judge. As chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1990, now-Vice President Joseph Biden ...
Income Gap: As President Obama laments America's growing income inequality, a new government report shows the futility of his calls for ever-more wealth redistribution. To deflect attention from ObamaCare's failures, the president this month trotted out his income inequality chestnut. "A dangerous ...
One of these days the White House may call the Geek Squad and some geniuses driving up in a Volkswagen Beetle will fix www.Healthcare.gov. What then? While politicians and pundits debate the impact on the health insurance market, I'm concerned that if ObamaCare begins to "succeed," it could tip the ...
A central architect of the president's health care law admitted this week that the often repeated promise that "if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor" simply isn't true. Instead, Dr. Ezekiel Emmanuel explained that if you like your doctor, you will simply need to pay more to keep your ...

great tyre!
great tyre and excellent value (especially when you reserve online and collect in store).

No punctures - yet.
My cycling often invoves gritty cycle routes - as well as roads, and in the past I have been plagued by punctures. Since purchasing Gatorskins, no punctures over last 750 miles. ( Average ride 50 miles ). Light and easy to fit ( thumbs only ). Even found a small shard of flint embedded in tyre after one outing - flicked out easily with no penetration. I'm 85 kg and have them inflated to 8 Bar plus. So far, good in the wet.
03 February 2012
Good Value Product
Fitted these Gatorskins to the wheels on my Bianchi & they went on a treat without struggle or
having to use tyre levers!! Also they roll well considering that they are very puncture resistant ,
Good value for money & ride quality is better than expected.
19 January 2012
great value
this is a top quality all round tire at a great price with added puncture protection for lots of worry free miles.

Gennady "GGG" Golovkin: The best middleweight standing
(Photo: Team Golovkin) BIG BEAR, CA (May 13, 2013) Having started training in the mountains of Big Bear, California for his eighth world title defense, WBA and IBO Middleweight World Champion Gennady "GGG" Golovkin has become the best man standing in the division.
Golovkin will defend his titles against Ireland's Matthew Macklin on Saturday, JUNE 29 at the MGM Grand Theatre at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Connecticut in a bout that will be broadcast as the main event on HBO, beginning at 9:45 PM ET/PT.
With an undefeated record of 26-0-0 with 23KO's, Golovkin's 88% knockout ratio is the highest among any middleweight champion in the history of the sport. Additionally, his last thirteen bouts have ended by stoppage, the highest active knockout streak of any current champion.
"Gennady has truly distinguished himself as the most exciting, biggest punching and most active fighter in the middleweight division" said Tom Loeffler, Managing Director of K2 Promotions. "Looking through the division, WBC titlist Sergio Martinez has proven to the best, however he is not available until next year due to injuries suffered in his valiant win over Martin Murray last month".
"Felix Sturm has all but disappeared since losing his title, although Gennady has offered him an opportunity to fight for his title back in Germany."
"Daniel Geale relinquished his WBA "Super" title status in order to avoid having to face Gennady. Although he still has the IBF Title, we don't see him wanting to face Gennady in a unification bout in the near future. " continued Loeffler.
"WBO belt holder Peter Quillin has been stuck fighting on undercards as opposed to main event status granted to a marketable, hard punching, world champion such as Golovkin."
"Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is one of the most popular fighters in the division. Fans have been clamoring to see a fight between him and Gennady, the division's two hardest punchers. We would certainly welcome the opportunity to face him in a mega-event for the fans."
Golovkin's title defense against Macklin on JUNE 29 will be his third this year and fourth since debuting in the US and on HBO last September with a dominant fifth round stoppage of European Champion and top rated WBA contender Grzegorz Proksa.

HealthDay Reporter
WEDNESDAY, Sept. 30 (HealthDay News) -- Former professional football players suffer from Alzheimer's disease or other memory-related conditions at rates far higher than the general population, a new study commissioned by the National Football League shows.
And retired players between the ages of 30 and 49 are 19 times more likely to struggle with memory problems than similarly aged men who never played professional football, the study found.
The findings could have implications that reach far beyond the National Football League, which has said in the past that there's no reliable research to establish the proof of cognitive problems among former players.
Head injuries are not uncommon among college and high school players. University of Florida star quarterback Tim Tebow, the best collegiate player in the nation last year, suffered a head injury during a game on Saturday that briefly left him unconscious on the field. He continued to undergo post-concussion tests Tuesday.
And a study published last year in The American Journal of Sports Medicine examined severe head injuries among high school football players between 1989 and 2002. The researchers found that high school players had more than triple the risk of sustaining catastrophic head trauma compared to college players. High school athletes suffered 0.67 such injuries per 100,000 players, compared with 0.21 injuries per 100,000 college players.
The new study of former pro players has not been peer-reviewed, but the results mirror several other recent studies suggesting a link between dementia and head injuries. The results of the study, conducted by the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research, were first reported Wednesday by The New York Times.
"Single incidents of concussion or head injury with loss of consciousness is a fairly well-established risk factor for subsequent Alzheimer's disease that shows up in big epidemiological projects," said Greg Cole, a professor of medicine and neurology at the University of California, Los Angeles David Geffen School of Medicine.
"Typically, head injury is found to roughly double the risk for developing dementia," added Cole, who's also associate director of the Mary S. Easton Center for Alzheimer's Disease Research. "But if victims also have the most common genetic risk factor [ApoE4], present in about 20 percent of the population and which similarly increases risk by itself, the combined risk is much higher, around tenfold or more. Animal model studies show this relationship is probably causal because head injury can really speed Alzheimer's pathology. All of this makes it pretty clear to experts studying AD [Alzheimer's disease] that in individuals with some preexisting genetic risk for Alzheimer's, repeated head injury should be expected to make dementia much more likely."
For the NFL survey, the Michigan researchers contacted 1,063 retired players by phone late last year. The players, who had to have played at least three seasons to qualify for the survey, were asked a series of questions on a series of topics, including questions on health, financial well-being and satisfaction with life. Most of the questions came from the standard National Health Interview Survey. That way, answers could be compared to previously collected data from the general population. In some cases, a player's wife answered the questions.
The Michigan researchers found that, among players aged 50 and older, 6.1 percent of them said they had received a dementia-related diagnosis -- five times higher than the national average of 1.2 percent.
Players between the ages of 30 and 49 had a dementia-related diagnosis rate of 1.9 percent -- 19 times higher than the national average of 0.1 percent, according to the survey.
The study authors acknowledged that phone surveys aren't a foolproof scientific method to determine rates of diagnosed dementia.
Dr. Daniel P. Perl, director of neuropathology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, told the Times that he considered the new survey significant. "I think this complements what others have found -- there appears to be a problem with cognition in a group of NFL football players at a relatively young age," he said.

Editorial: Brown keeps JSMC out front
The Lima News – U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown is on target when he voices concern about funding for tank production at Joint Systems Manufacturing Center. To his credit, he's been working side-by-side with Lima's task force since its formation and continues to be fully engaged in building its case in Washington.
Defense Daily, an organization that closely follows the U.S. military, recently published a story about the back-and-forth going on between Brown and Army Secretary John McHugh. Relentlessly, Brown is continuing to press McHugh to reconsider his plans to temporarily stop procurement of tanks made in Lima.
The Army did not request funds for tank production in 2012. At the time the budget was being looked at, McHugh said the Army wanted to temporarily stop procurement and modernization of the tank until 2017. Congress restored funding in the 2013 budget even though the Army did not request it, but Brown argues it doesn't go far enough. Currently, several orders from foreign countries are bolstering operations at JSMC.
"Notwithstanding your assurances, I remain concerned that we as a nation are depending on foreign military sales to sustain domestic tank production," Brown said in a June 7 letter to McHugh.

During the war, Joe Keller and Herbert Deever ran a machine shop which made airplane parts. Deever was sent to prison because the firm turned out defective parts, causing the deaths of many men. Keller went free and made a lot of money. The twin shadows of this catastrophe and the fact that the young Keller son was reported missing during the war dominate the action. The love affair of Chris Keller and Ann Deever, the bitterness of George Deever returned from the war to find his father in prison and his father's partner free, are all set in a structure of almost unbearable power.

Addiction a brain disorder, not just bad behavior
WASHINGTON (AP) - Addiction isn't just about willpower. It's a chronic brain disease, says a new definition aimed at helping families and their doctors better understand the challenges of treating it.
"Addiction is about a lot more than people behaving badly," says Dr. Michael M. Miller of the American Society for Addiction Medicine.
That's true whether it involves drugs and alcohol or gambling and compulsive eating, the doctors group said Monday. And like other chronic conditions such as heart disease or diabetes, treating addiction and preventing relapse is a long-term endeavor, the specialists concluded.
Addiction generally is described by its behavioral symptoms _ the highs, the cravings, and the things people will do to achieve one and avoid the other. The new definition doesn't disagree with the standard guide for diagnosis based on those symptoms.
But two decades of neuroscience have uncovered how addiction hijacks different parts of the brain, to explain what prompts those behaviors and why they can be so hard to overcome. The society's policy statement, published on its website, isn't a new direction as much as part of an effort to translate those findings to primary care doctors and the general public.
"The behavioral problem is a result of brain dysfunction," agrees Dr. Nora Volkow, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
She welcomed the statement as a way to help her own agency's work to spur more primary care physicians to screen their patients for signs of addiction. NIDA estimates that 23 million Americans need treatment for substance abuse but only about 2 million get that help. Trying to add compassion to the brain findings, NIDA even has made readings from Eugene O'Neill's "Long Day's Journey into Night" a part of meetings where primary care doctors learn about addiction.
Then there's the frustration of relapses, which doctors and families alike need to know are common for a chronic disease, Volkow says.
"You have family members that say, `OK, you've been to a detox program, how come you're taking drugs?'" she says. "The pathology in the brain persists for years after you've stopped taking the drug."
Just what does happen in the brain? It's a complex interplay of emotional, cognitive and behavioral networks.
Genetics plays a role, meaning some people are more vulnerable to an addiction if they, say, experiment with drugs as a teenager or wind up on potent prescription painkillers after an injury.
Age does, too. The frontal cortex helps put the brakes on unhealthy behaviors, Volkow explains. It's where the brain's reasoning side connects to emotion-related areas. It's among the last neural regions to mature, one reason that it's harder for a teenager to withstand peer pressure to experiment with drugs.
Even if you're not biologically vulnerable to begin with, perhaps you try alcohol or drugs to cope with a stressful or painful environment, Volkow says. Whatever the reason, the brain's reward system can change as a chemical named dopamine conditions it to rituals and routines that are linked to getting something you've found pleasurable, whether it's a pack of cigarettes or a few drinks or even overeating. When someone's truly addicted, that warped system keeps them going back even after the brain gets so used to the high that it's no longer pleasurable.
Make no mistake: Patients still must choose to fight back and treat an addiction, stresses Miller, medical director of the Herrington Recovery Center at Rogers Memorial Hospital in Oconomowoc, Wis.
But understanding some of the brain reactions at the root of the problem will "hopefully reduce some of the shame about some of these issues, hopefully reduce stigma," he says.

In a genre often preoccupied with superficial sh*t, Matty Rico is one artist who's not afraid to ask the big questions. Questions like, "How did we get here?", "Where did we come from?" and "What the f**k did I do last night?" Formerly known as Krypton Flo, the mic-rocking half of now-defunct duo AudioDax, the Chicago representative showcases a very different side of his artistic persona on debut solo feature F.O.M.O. (Fear of Missing Out). Over producer Web's simmering rhythm section, the emcee departs from the cheery tone of his collaborative work to paint a grittier lyrical picture of his hustle-by-day, party-by-night lifestyle. Craving more? Seek and ye shall find on Rico's New American LP, available now for purchase via the artist's Bandcamp page.

Back-to-school stats: How much do Americans spend shopping?
Americans spend billions on back-to-school shopping, whether it is for clothes or books, according to statistics from the US Census Bureau. But maybe the spending is worth it; people with higher degrees still earn more.
We've been keeping an eye on all the facts and figures coming out about the great Back To School migration. (Was that really $700 that the National Retail Federation said was the average cost of back-to-school spending for kindergarten through 12th grade?) After all, this is a big time of year for parents and their kids, whether they're dreading the end of lazy summer days or counting down the minutes until someone else will help entertain (I mean teach) Junior for a good chunk of the day.

So when we saw a new collection of back-to-school stats from the US Census Bureau, we decided we needed to share.
Because check this out: The amount of money spent at family clothing stores in August 2011? $7.7 billion. Yes, billion. And this consumerism could take place at a wide variety of locations. According to the Census Bureau, there were 28,520 family clothing stores in 2009, along with 7,092 children and infants clothing stores, and 26,651 shoe stores.
But don't forget the books. August is the strongest sales month of the year for bookstores (flashback here of making my way through the maze of paperback piles at the campus book shop) with purchases totaling some $2.4 billion. And you can get your copy of "The Catcher in the Rye" at some 9,390 bookstores nationwide (as of 2009).
All of this might seem crazy until one considers another stat: More than a quarter of the population age 3 and older is enrolled in school. Sixteen percent of college students are 35 and older, and 72 percent of children aged 3 to 6 are enrolled in full-day kindergarten. All together, that's 79 million people as of 2010 who are heading back to school – a lot of demand for textbooks and color-coded binders. (Do kids still use binders? Or is everything on an iPad? Help me out here.)
But if this all has you aghast, the Census Bureau also reminds us that staying in school is worth it financially. Although this figure has been sliced and diced, and ends up being more complicated than it might appear (sorry, but humanities graduates just don't make as much as the engineers), workers with a bachelor's degree had median earnings of $56,000, compared to the $33,000 of those with a high school diploma. Workers with less than a high school diploma had median earnings of $25,000.
So go forth and shop for back to school. It is, apparently, the American way.

To me, aprons represent an element of comfort and tradition that can only come at home, where for an evening or a Saturday morning we can gather in the kitchen and revel in the smells of fresh bread baking or gather with our friends for a home cooked meal. Aprons can be a fashion statement in themselves. I often plan my outfit around my apron. And, when you sit down to dinner, your clothes will stay nice and neat.
So welcome to my kitchen, grab a cup of coffee and have a look around. I hope to hear from you soon.

Gunmen have shot five health workers on an anti-polio drive in a string of attacks in Pakistan, officials say, raising fears for the safety of workers immunising children against the crippling disease.
It was not clear who was behind the shootings but Taliban insurgents have repeatedly denounced the anti-polio campaign as a Western plot.
Health officials suspended the immunisation campaign in Karachi, Pakistan's biggest city of 18 million people.
Three women were killed and a man was wounded in two separate attacks on health workers in Karachi on Tuesday, said senior police superintendent police Imran Shaukat.
The team had received telephone calls warning workers they would regret helping the "infidel" campaign against polio, said health official Gul Naz, who oversees project in the area where the women were shot.
An anti-polio worker in Karachi was shot dead on Monday, the United Nations said.
In the northwestern city of Peshawar on Tuesday, gunmen on a motorbike shot a 17-year-old girl supervising an anti-polio campaign, said government official Javed Marwar.
She died of her wounds in hospital, a doctor said.
All of the victims were Pakistanis working with a UN-backed program to eradicate polio, which attacks the nervous system and can cause permanent paralysis within hours of infection.
It has been eradicated in all but a handful of countries but at least 35 children in Pakistan have been infected this year.
In Karachi, provincial Health Minister Saghir Ahmed said the government had told 24,000 polio workers it was suspending the anti-polio drive in the province.
Officials could not confirm if all the attacks were linked to the health campaign, said Matthew Coleman, a spokesman for the United Nations Children's Fund.
Many of the attacks occurred in areas notorious for gun violence but the situation was a worry, he said.
"We're concerned for the safety of front-line workers. They are the true heroes," he said.
There have been at least three other shootings involving polio eradication workers this year.
Some Islamists and Muslim preachers say the police vaccine is a Western plot to sterilise Muslims. Other religious leaders have taken part in campaigns aimed at debunking that myth.

I Donate Blood
I Love Giving Back!
Ever since I was 17, I've tried to give blood every 10-12 weeks. I have a very large family and I know that with some of my brothers' reckless behavior, they will inevitably need my blood. I am O Rh D- so therefore a "universal donor". Plus, how can you refuse Sunny D and cookies?!Also, I had a very good friend who passed away from cancer at the tender age of 27 and through an act of sheer friendship, she needed my blood and I was happy to oblige. My blood kept her alive (or so the doctors claim) long enough for her to enjoy her last few weeks on this earth :) It made me a very happy camper that I was able to contribute to someone who has done so much for me :)

The year is 2312. Scientific advances have opened gateways to an extraordinary future.

The first event takes place on Mercury, in the city of Terminator, itself a miracle of engineering on an unprecedented scale. For Swan Er Hong, it will change her life. Once a designer of worlds, now Swan will be led into a plot to destroy them. 2312 is a bold vision of humanity's future and a compelling portrait of those individuals who will shape its events.

Oil spill closes road in Shadeland, Indiana
SHADELAND, Ind. (WLFI) - An oil spill closed a Tippecanoe County road Friday afternoon.
The Shadeland Fire Department was dispatched to County Road 375 West off of State Road 25 South, just past Shadeland.
Firefighters said the spill happened around 3:30 p.m. when a sprayer belonging to Ceres Solutions in West Point had a broken hydraulic line.
The sprayer spilled about 15 gallons of oil over the course of half a mile.
Ceres Solutions brought a substance to absorb the oil then vacuum it up.
The road re-opened about two hours later.

I don't want a good girl, no not today...
I broke up with my girlfriend of a year today.
Did she do anything wrong? No.
Will I regret this in the long term? Most likely yes.
Will I ever meet anyone who treated me as well as she did? Most likely not.
Do I care? No.
Is it breaking my heart that I hurt my ex? Yes.
Was it necessary? For my sake, a million times yes.
I was sick and tired of the predictable, tired of acting logical. I didn't want a good girl anymore. No, I want a bad girl. I want a love that's crazy, that's spontaneous and keeps me on my toes. I want something physical, not something invisible. Sue me.

What I love is how crying in the hallway excuses systematic physical and psychological harassment, yet crying in the courtyard does nothing to wipe away Blaine's trumped up sins.
I choose to believe this is A++ trolling, tbh, because otherwise I weep for humanity.
For a while I couldn't even figure out who the three people in that original quote were supposed to be because, wow, talk about picking and choosing your "positive" character moments. Did they just change the channel every time Blaine came on screen after his initial reluctance to go to prom and miss the part where he, you know, danced with his boyfriend in front of a crowd? I can't deal with people who hate Blaine for such trumped up reasons that they see absolutely no problem with pairing Kurt up with the guy who physically assaulted him and threatened to kill him. You don't have to like Blaine at all, you just have to not make up canon that didn't happen and disregard everything horrible that Karofsky did. Yeesh.
The clear highlight of Morrison's set was the smooth transition between the Simon and Garfunkel classic and, we kid, you not, "Gold Digger." For this purpose, the former Broadway crooner mustered up all the street cred he could manage and shouted, "We 'bout to get dirrrty now!"
and also
After announcing "My Name," a song he wrote a year ago in London, Morrison told the crowd, "It's about the duality between being me and Mr. Schuester." It was unclear whether he realizes that he is not, in fact, Mr. Schuester, but then again, it was also hard to tell if the audience knew that.
!!! Oh man, are you offering to write it for me? I would love a Kurt/Blaine blanket-fort story. LOVE.
P.S: For people watching, this is the picture in question. Now excuse me while I go die of ecstasy.
P.P.S: Thank you!!
Lolol Tumblr, wth. That is the most random time glitch I have ever seen.
I might regret this!!!
Be anon, be non-anon, just ask me whatever you want! My ask box is sad and lonely :(
Instant fic turn-off, Kurt being relieved he's gay because girls are so complicated and crazy and it's fine to be friends with them but it must be so horrible to date them. WTF.
It is 4:30 am and I am still up. I hate Visa, Mastercard, online ticket booking sites and crappy telephone connections. Also Firefox. Just thought I should let tumblr know.
Well, it's good to have a date for when I can finally stop watching this show, hahahsaljfg.
Also — didn't Murphy just say that Blaine isn't going to be a senior this year? So he's younger than Kurt? Despite everything implied in "Blaine's on board" for moving to New York after graduation? This show makes no sense.
RM said something along the lines of "I believe Blaine is not a senior" as opposed to the straight-up "Sam isn't a senior" (but then there was the whole Chord gate, so wtf), and in another interview he was like "The Darren Criss of it all is very ambiguous", so I don't even know. Some people speculated that he might want to make Kurt and Blaine the same age and at that point he didn't know if Chris was staying, so he didn't know what would happen with Darren either.
But who knows. Ryan is a troll who seems completely unable to make up his mind about anything. I just really, really hope they'll graduate at the same time. I don't want my Klaine separated.
THANK YOU; for a minute, I thought I was losing my brain. Here it is: "Chord is not a senior. I believe Darren is not a senior. There's a group of them." I guess we'll see, come September! While I'd like to see more Blaine, I would be pretty sad if he and Kurt were different ages and thus were split up by default.
I would say "stop being so trolly and ambiguous, Ryan Murphy," but, haha, yeah right.
Hahaha, WHAT? Are they seriously going to make Blaine younger than Kurt? I should stop expecting logic from this bunch, but somehow I keep doing it every time. I guess next season's going to be it for me then. No Kurt, no Rachel? :( And how does the class thing even make sense then if some of the cast are staying but these few are leaving? They seemed to be in the same classes when they actually did show them in class!
Mercedes is a pretty terrible friend throughout this entire episode.
TBF, Kurt is a giant asshole to her, too. It's one of the reasons I can't watch that episode and why I hate Ian.
Exactly, both were pretty crappy to each other. What this episode made me do was think really bad thoughts about Ian's concept of "humor" and make sure I never rewatched it.
1) agreed, 2) did you actually work out the ratio of fic that you read??
Of course I did. I used the Barney Stinson method. Highly scientific!
Angst meme, I know, but I hate how there seem to be a disproportionate amount of prompts with poor-victim-Kurt accompanied by Rachel bashing. I mean, Kurt's my favorite character and 83% (<-real statistic) of the fic I read is Kurt-centric, but I think Kurt and Rachel have managed to be both awful and amazing to and with each other. Character bashing is tiresome and I wish it would just go away.
The degree to which it is unrealistic is massive, even by Glee standards. While I've recognized that sometimes Glee is going to do things that make no sense, the empty auditorium in this episode is complete and utter bullshit. There is NO way this would EVER happen. EVER. Rachel's dads would be there. Burt and Carole would be there. The fucking gospel choir that backs Mercedes up would be there. And I REFUSE to believe that no parent's would attend. I mean, fucking Coach Beiste would go. And Emma. Ugh. This is one of the only times I haven't been able to shrug my shoulders and say, "it's Glee, what can you do?" Because there is something you can do.
And I guess I understand that for the plot to work no one can show up, but seriously, think of a better plot.
There are episodes that cause me greater rage (*cough* Hairography *cough* The Substitute), but there is something deeply flawed in this episode at all levels. And the fact that it is supposed to be meta about the fact that there are underappreciated characters on the show and then just uses those characters as a plot device that ultimately does nothing for said characters… just so much failure.
A show's meta episode shouldn't make you feel more like they're missing the point even harder, yet, they actually managed to do that. I love how Will says that they'll just need to be even better to shut the hecklers up, right after Tina leaves the stage in tears. Screw you, Will! You're just an ineffective and bad teacher. And to go along with the fail of the episode, I love that Will's crappines came along with yet another person talking about how amazing and good he is. But hey, if you look at it that way, I guess the way people neglect to see Will's douchiness fits the theme. Sort of.
I'm kind of just staring at my tumblelog and the ridiculous (amazing!) number of notes for that last post. O_O <— that's me.
