Author: Dick Miller Softbound 8.5 x 11 128 Pages 230 Color Photos ISBN: 9781934709351 While building big horsepower has becomre easier, putting that power to the pavement is still quite a challenge. Getting great "bite" involves a lot more than sticky tires and a smoky burnout. The suspension system is being put to work in a way it was never designed to operate.

Junior Stock Drag Racing Book Part # 88-1806-3
160 Pages 458 Color And Black & White Photos 8.5" X 11" Softbound In the 1950s and 1960s, drag racing was an exciting new sport that anyone with a car could participate in. Based on their equipment, the participants' cars were assigned to specific classes. This structure made it possible to compete against others with similar equipment, and for the most talented tuners and drivers to become National Champions and/or World Record holders in their class. This class format encouraged amateur participation on a level never before seen. Drag racing was a popular hobby for many, and their competition vehicles were typically warmed-over street cars that had been strategically upgraded to the limits of their specific class. This made drag racing wildly popular and amazingly attainable. The end of the class structure meant a great loss in the sport's popularity, but these amazing times will never be forgotten. Stock-class drag racing is celebrated in this new book, with hundreds of vintage color photographs showing the way it used to be. If you were a fan or participant back in the day, or are a lover of vintage drag cars, Junior Stock: Stock Class Drag Racing 1964-1971 is a book you'll thoroughly enjoy. Learn More

Book, Competition Engine Building Part # 88-1700-3
176 Pages 8.5' X 11" Soft Cover 321 Color Photos Excellent For Students And Pros Extensive Data, Charts And Engineering Information Covers The Complete Spectrum From Design To Assembly To Testing And Tuning Author John Baechtel The needs of a true competition engine are quite different than those of the engine under the hood of a typical commuter car. From the basic design needs, to the base component materials, to the sizes of the flow-related hardware, to the precision of the machining, to the capabilities of each pertinent system, very few similarities exist. Many books exist showcasing how to make street-based engines more powerful and/or durable. This book is different, in that it focuses purely on the needs of high rpm, high durability, high-powered racing engines. It begins by looking at the raw design needs, and then shares how these needs are met at the various phases of an engine's development, assembly, testing and tuning. This book features reviews of many popular modern tools, techniques, products, and testing/data collecting machinery. Showing the proper way to use such tools, how to accurately collect data, and how to use the data effectively when designing an engine, is critical information not readily available elsewhere. The special needs of a competition engine aren't commonly discussed, and the many secrets competition engine builders hold closely are openly shared on the pages here. Authored by veteran author John Baechtel, Competition Engine Building stands alone as a premier guide for enthusiasts and students of the racing engine. It also serves as a reference guide for experienced professionals anxious to learn the latest techniques or see how the newest tools are used. Baechtel is more than just an author, as he holds (or has held) several World Records at Bonneville. Additionally, his engines have won countless races in many disciplines, including road racing and drag racing Learn More

If you saw one of three giant flags draped across Illinois 157 or Illinois 15 Saturday, it was for Mearl J. Justus.
If you heard bagpipes playing during the morning in Cahokia, it was in honor of the former sheriff.
And if you saw people standing along the roadway, waving small American flags, it was for Justus.
A funeral Mass was celebrated at 10 a.m. at Holy Family Catholic Church in Cahokia. Mourners cried and laughed, shook hands and embraced, in remembrance of the man who led law enforcement in St. Clair County for three decades.
When the Rev. Mark Reyling first met Justus, he thought it was providential that someone with such a name worked in law enforcement.
"Not only was it providential, it was fitting," he said during the homily of the 81-year-old Justus who died on Tuesday, one week after resigning as sheriff. "A man named Justus."
The funeral was in Cahokia, the town where Justus first entered law enforcement. He joined the Cahokia Police Department as a 22-year-old recruit before working his way up to chief. He then served 30 years as the sheriff of St. Clair County.
"A lifetime of work for a man named Justus," Reyling said.
Justus performed several acts of charity during his nearly 60 years in law enforcement, including encouraging Christmas party guests to bring donations for the needy; assisting a robbery victim get cataract surgery after her life savings had been stolen; and establishing a nutrition program at churches in Cahokia.
Dozens of law enforcement officials attended funeral, including officers from East St. Louis, Belleville, Metro Security and the St. Clair County Sheriff's Department.
They came together to celebrate "a life's work of a man who stood for justice," Reyling said.
Justus was a devout Catholic and not shy about his faith, Reyling said. "Mearl dedicated his life to serving and protecting God's holy people. He did that with great faith."
Reyling said that he occasionally brought Communion to Justus and his wife, Audrey, to their apartment upstairs from the St. Clair County Jail.
"Sometimes it took an act of God to get upstairs," he said, as the mourners momentarily traded their tears for laughter. "That place was safer than the jail."
St. Clair County Master Sgt. Thomas Trice gave a eulogy for Justus. Trice entered law enforcement when he was 23 and without a father. But he said Justus grew to be a mentor and father figure. "He was much more than a boss, he was a father surrogate."
In 2001, Trice's son died. He recalled Justus leaning back in his chair and telling him, "There is nothing more important than family. Take all the time you need."
Trice mentioned programs for the elderly and children that Justus had started. "If there was a Ph.D. for life lessons, we would call him Dr. Justus."
The walls of the church were decorated with greenery and wreaths with white candles and red holiday ribbons. Below those decorations sat dozens of floral arrangements from friends, family, politicians and law enforcement offices from the metro-east and across the state.
When guests walked into the church, they were handed a sheet of paper adorned with holly and berries around the edges. Across the top, it said, "Season's Greetings." They were copies of a letter from Justus dated "Christmas, 1980," when he served as the police chief of Cahokia.
The letter mentioned American hostages in Iran and unrest in the Middle East, but it also showed his religious side and passion for his profession.
"Our country in this generation are by destiny, rather than by choice, the watchmen of the walls of the world of freedom," Justus wrote in the letter. "I believe that it is appropriate that we ask for prayerful guidance for those entrusted with such enormous responsibility to exercise their strength with wisdom and restraint, that we may achieve in our time and for all times the ancient vision of PEACE ON EARTH, GOOD WILL TOWARD MEN."
The funeral also was simulcast to the Knights of Columbus Hall at 100 E. Fifth St. in Cahokia. Following the funeral, there was a funeral procession to Valhalla Cemetery at 3412 Frank Scott Parkway West in Belleville.
Memorials may be made to the Programs and Services for Older Persons and Mearl J. Justus Scholarship Fund at Southwestern Illinois College in Belleville.
Contributions may be made online at swic.edu/foundation or may be mailed to the Southwestern Illinois College Foundation at 2500 Carlyle Ave., Belleville, IL 62221.

Objectives, Deliverables, Milestones
Objectives Examine the patterns of long term change in selected coastal ecosystems and thereby establish targets for the restoration and sustainable use of living marine resources. 1. Identification, validation and assembly of historical data (e.g. biomass, mean size, maturity, fecundity) relating to key aquatic resources in selected large marine ecosystems (LMEs); 2. Collation, analysis and dissemination of the historical data collected and processed in (1); 3. Establish baselines against which the current status of aquatic resources and LMEs can be evaluated and restoration goals can be set.
Description of work The "Shifting Baselines" workpackage addresses the 'shifting baseline syndrome'. In essence, this problem has emerged as each generation of fisheries and environmental scientists has accepted existing stock size and species composition as the baseline against which temporal changes are measured. However, if stocks are progressively depleted, a shift in the baseline occurs over time. This results in an accommodation of the creeping disappearance of resource species, and the application of inappropriate reference points for the evaluation of economic losses due to overfishing, and the identification of targets for rehabilitation policies. To resolve this problem, criteria for selecting key aquatic resources (stocks) within particular large marine ecosystems will be developed. Historical data on catch and effort, biomasses, length-frequencies, maximum sizes, size and age at maturity, growth rates, natural mortality, etc. will be assessed, collated and analysed to establish baselines against which the current status and restoration goals of key aquatic resources can be assessed. Likewise, historical data on catch and effort, production, biomasses, predator-prey interactions, flows, and habitat change will be mined, assessed, collated and analysed to establish baselines against which the current status and restoration goals of selected marine ecosystems can be assessed. These data will be disseminated in conjunction with WP 1 and will inform the work of colleagues engaged in WP 3-6.
All WP participants will contribute to all deliverables. Milestones

Country Girlfriend
Stolen Girlfriends Club showed their summer collection 'Hello Country/Goodbye Nightclub' and launched their first bags range at a catwalk show tonight inside their workroom space (soon to be shop) in Grey Lynn.
The summer collection consisted of big florals teamed with leather - on both boys and girls. Models wore black Jeffrey Campbell boots and were accessorized with 1980s white chipped-coral necklaces.
Hair was side-parted with a loose back bun and make-up featured a graphic eyeliner, flushed pink cheeks, and rosy lips.
Silhouette-wise it was a structured, fitting collection that was nipped at the waist with peplums, or flared out with full miniskirts. Shirt dresses featured strongly for women, with contrast panels and cutaways giving geometric shapes to the floral prints.
I chatted to Stolen Girlfriends Club designer Marc Moore after the show.
Marc said the collection is named loosely for the Groove Armada album title (but swapped the other way round) 'Hello Nightclub/Goodbye Country'. The SS13 range is based around a country girl redoing her clothes, for the town.
The floral prints were designed in-house (in previous seasons, their floral prints have been designed by famous New Zealand artist Karl Maughan) and are the blooms of drugs: opium poppies and daytura flowers.
Marc said it is the first time they've properly done a line of bags. They are floral canvas with genuine leather trim (made in Indonesia and China) and we bet will fly out the door.
The other major pattern was a stripe; a crochet-esque woven knit in mini dresses, women's tops, and on menswear, too.
An unusual over-skirt detail on a leather dress.
Just a good ol' country girl: a chambray pinafore dress.
This cornflower blue dress below was actually one of my favourites of the whole collection. I liked the cut and the panelling emphasizing the waist.
Men's flamingo and serpent printed tee.

Wood Chart: Heat Values of New England Fuel Woods
Have you ever wondered if heating with wood would trim your fuel bills? Look over the information in these charts to help find the answer.
- Find the kind of wood you will burn from Chart One.
- Find the kind of wood burner you use from Chart Two or Three. Chart Two is for woodstove users; Chart Three is for fireplace users.
- Read the figures that apply to your present fuel: oil, lpg, natural gas, electric heat.
Example: If you have a high-efficiency stove, and burn a cord of wood from Group B, and use lpg to heat your home, then Chart Two tells you that for each cord of wood you burn, you save 185 gallons of lpg. You can compare the cost of the cord of wood to the cost of 185 gallons of lpg to see what you are saving in dollars.

Thanksgiving is almost here; and so, American Jews are reminded of a value so fundamental to Judaism that we are commanded to practice it. This is the gift of giving tzedakah. While in practice, many Jews donate a portion of their income to the needy, I argue that the core ideology of tzedakah transcends donating money, or even one's time to social action or world peace. My belief is that tzedakah begins with recognizing the world outside of ourselves, and acknowledging the holinesses within each person, plant and animal. It is when we see another in the same light in which we see ourselves that we create true peace. Of course, Thanksgiving engenders personal reflection and gratefulness for the richness of our lives, and Judaism promotes brotherhood among fellow Jews across the globe. But, my feeling is that the Native Americans have also got the right idea when it comes to giving tzedakah.
Recently, in the Mythology class I teach, we watched the PBS series, "Power of Myth," based on the book by Joseph Campbell. In an interview with Campbell, he explains the relationship that the Native Americans practice toward nature and animals, particularly the buffalo, with which there is a "hunter animal food covenant." "Through ritual, animals were thanked for their willingness to sacrifice their lives and were assured transcendence and rebirth (which in turn replenished the food supply). Animals were considered equals, or given their superior physicality viewed as gods, givers of life and inspiration." (Yel Hannon Brayton, Sacred Cows for High School Creative Writing Students)
Beyond this, the idea that God lives in the animal (and all of nature), Campbell argues, creates a sense of seeing an object or thing not as an "it," but as a "thou." He says that the lack of allowing ourselves to see another as a "thou" is what causes us to mistreat each other and go to war with one another. So, the Native American's ability to identify personally with nature, seems to me, to evoke the true meaning of tzedakah. I think Thanksgiving is not just about giving to those in need or for being thankful for what we possess or have accomplished. It is about identifying the God in all of us, using the harvest season to remind us of our connection to the cosmos, to animals and nature, and, quite beautifully, our sacred connection to one another.

For me, whether I make it to High Holy Day services or not or commit to the 25 hour fast or not, it is the beautiful act of FORGIVENESS that marks Yom Kippur as more than a holy day, but an occasion to deliver my soul. While "repentance" implies sin, "atonement" suggests apology. And though admitting the hurt we've inflicted on others is hard, inherently so, I think admitting how we've allowed others to wrong us is equally as challenging, if not more. In our egocentric modern world it's always me first. But when it comes to forgiveness, looking inward on the sorrows we wear should be the first place to start. I need to forgive myself so that I can forgive my fellow humans. The grace and dignity and love I offer my own soul will, in turn, radiate from me in every act I commit. So when it comes down to it, Yom Kippur is really about peace: finding paths to inner peace, becoming that peace, and endowing it into our every interaction and exchange. I don't mean to take a beautiful tradition and get all self-helpy or New Age with it, but those terms get a bad rap!
I hope this year, during the Days of Awe, all my loved ones found forgiveness in the people they sought it from. But I hope too they granted themselves pardon, saw that they are human, and as humans, part of a collective divinity. I'm reminded of Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous words "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." The same goes for peace. It is this idea that each person is connected to every person that deserves, at least once a year, to be celebrated.

Featured in Alef: The NEXT Conversation: Middle School Fantasies
During 7th grade, everyone was having their bar and bat-mitzvahs. I remember before each party, as I would be putting on the same suit I wore to every one, I would ask myself, 'Will this be the party where he notices me and asks me to dance?'. A complete wallflower and social outcast in middle school, I would sit on the side watching the slow dances of the 1994-1995 season (guys putting their hands on the girls hips, with the girls putting their hands on the guys shoulders, and both parties stepping side to side in the same rhythm, no matter what the song was). I thought those dances were the first step to meeting Mr. Right and that if I wasn't asked to dance, I would remain single for the rest of my life. Fifteen years later, I'm still waiting to be asked to dance.
I used to imagine myself as the awkward girl in romantic movies, you know, the girl with the glasses that the popular guy doesn't notice at first, but once her glasses come off and her hair gets let down, he realizes that she's more beautiful than anyone else he could've ever hoped for…and more interesting as well. I had braces, big hair, and my older brother's hand-me-downs. I couldn't wait for guys to dig below the surface to find that I was just what they were looking for.
I needed these fantasies. I went to a Jewish school in Atlanta where if you weren't an athlete or a bully, you immediately became the target, not only by the students, but by some of the faculty as well. As my aspirations involved singing, dancing and a desire to hang out with Madonna and Paula Abdul (as opposed to Nirvana and Green Day), it became evident that there would be no support system in my everyday life, so I had to seek solace elsewhere. My friendships came from my acting classes, my boyfriends came from… well, the pictures ripped out of Dynamite magazines and taped to my doors. I had wonderful boyfriends: Luke Perry, Jason Priestley, and Mark Paul Gosselaar. I would kiss each of them goodnight almost every day, and I would fantasize that any one of them would come to the bar and bat mitzvahs to rescue me as I was getting beaten up while being called "faggot."
I also fantasized about my future. While watching Fiddler on the Roof, I'd think about which groom I'd end up with, and I'd measure the pros and cons of each. Motel was cute, but a wimp; Perchik was passionate, but poor; and Fyedka… well, he wasn't Jewish, so I wasn't interested. In the end I'd always choose Perchik. Perchik would stand up for me and for rights of everyone around me. I needed someone who would fight the good fight and who I could believe in. I also wanted someone who would marry me under a chupa and stomp on the glass while everyone yelled "mazel tov." I was going to be a Jewish bride and no amount of bullying from my peers was going to stop me.
After I graduated eighth grade, I went to an International School, as opposed to Yeshiva, and I was freed. I made instant friends (some of whom I'm still close to today) and I stopped looking over my shoulder for threats of violence. I participated in debates between the girls and boys of my class about whether gays were equal (boys usually voted no, girls voted yes), and I broke up with the men of my bedroom in favor of fantasies about the boys in my class.
I never doubted my Judaism. In fact, I connected with the fact that in spite of the adversity the Jewish people faced (and continue to face), we still survive and continue to thrive as a people. I needed to survive the torments of my youth because I knew that eventually life had to get better. I needed to be strong for myself, and for Perchik. After all, someday he would ask me to dance, right?

Hi all,
I have been seeing some opinions on tta which is present in DCP.
I am taking the recommended dose of 2 caps 3 times daily.
Would there be any sides to this? Is it dangerous in any way?
One thing i note was that my poop had some sort of "water" or "oil" coming out!! And i also go to the toilet more often now. Is that fat excreting out? Is this normal?
hope RPN reps can clear my doubts and put my worries to rest.
after reading many posts on this forum and weeks of thinking, i have started a cutting/recomp stack a week ago which consists of:
DCP, Levi Reloaded, Anabolic Pump, Sesathin. (Adding P-slin midway through the stack)
My Staples include:
Xtend, Super Antioxidants, Fish Oil, Animal Pak OR Now Adam, Relora.
My MAIN goal is to SHED FAT. burn fat and burn more fat.
The Anabolic Pump in the stack is mainly to overcome my sorta "addiction" to carbs. I can't drop my carbs because i feel totally like sh*t without them.
My question is,
Would this stack have any side effects or POSSIBLE sides?
Are there any problems taking these supps together? (For example, I take DCP, Levi R, and AP together upon waking up)
Hope that everyone including some reps can answer my questions! All feedback appreciated!

Firefighters strike across West Midlands and Staffordshire - LIVE
Firefighters across the West Midlands and Staffordshire walked out on strike this afternoon in a row over changes to their pensions which they claim will force them to work until the age of 60.
Members of the Fire Brigades Union left their stations and set up picket lines, leaving fire services to put into place contingency plans.
It was part of a national strike between midday and 4pm today. At Bilston Fire Station on the Black Country Route, 10 firefighters formed a picket line this afternoon.
Firefighter Scott Griffiths said: "It is massively important to all firefighters. We need to show a stand because the implications of these new proposals being brought in do not make sense."
Follow live updates from our team of reporters at fire stations across the region:
Updates come from reporter Kirsten Rawlins in Stafford, Lisa O'Brien tweeting from Walsall, Adam Thompson in Bilston, Dan Wainwright at Merridale Street, Adam Grinsell at West Bromwich and Alex Ross with reports from Dudley.
Fire crews at Wolverhampton's main fire station in Merridale Street, Graiseley, left at midday but did not set up a picket line.
None of them wanted to comment, but a retired firefighter came along on his motorbike to show support. Michael Lay, aged 58, of Uplands Drive in Finchfield, retired six years ago and said the changes to pensions would mean someone like him would have to carry on rescuing people using ladders.
He said: "People my age turn up to pensioners' events and they're hobbling. Many of us have problems with our joints because of the type of work firefighters do. They can't carry on until they are 60."
Meanwhile, at Dudley fire station firefighters were called out just two minutes before the strike started. The incident at a house in Sedgley Road West turned out to be a false alarm.
Firefighter Steven Hunter explains the reasons behind the strikes with his nine-month-old son Alfie at Dudley Fire Station.
Contingency plans in the West Midlands included stopping all non-emergency response work such as school visits and fire alarm checks. In Staffordshire chief fire officer Peter Dartford and his deputy Chris Ennis were expected to be in the control room monitoring calls. Senior officers were also prepared to put out on fire engines.
Just hours before the strike started an elderly couple died in a house fire in Lichfield Road, Stone.
Today's walk-out comes as it was announced that thousands of crown post office workers will stage their 12th day of industrial action next Monday. That is the day before teachers stage a national strike.
In a poll on the website, 86 per cent of readers supported the strike action.

Without revealing my age (lol), I can remember a time when most of our elected officials and department heads listened to taxpayers and planned accordingly. Now, the only ones with a voice and the power are the politicians and department heads. The rest of us are suppose to shutup and pay the bills. If we don't like what they are doing, then ..... well, it would hurt if we did it.! The 'pols' who are suppose to represent me, don't fear anyone or any future election. They have the money and the power. They know that the electorate is mostly stupid, high on drugs or don't really give a crap.
The only ones who had a vote on raising the Poweball ticket price to $2 were state lottery department heads. They got together in a closed meeting, decided they needed to make more money and adopted the $1 increase. No public polls were taken. They took advantage of the power they have to do just about anything they want, so long as it generates a profit. We can complain all we want, but nothing will change. The decision has been made. If you (generic) don't like it, go sit on it.
No lottery in it's right mind is going to admit to any kind of mistake. The $1 increase will cover the initial losses caused by the player defections. Cannibalizing one game to support another is routine business for lottery folks. Time is on their side. They know as sure as the sun rises and sets everyday that gamblers will grumble but will eventually pay the price.
I think we all know deep down that the cost of playing the Mega Millions game will increase, but probably not in 2012. When we gamblers adjust to the $2 Powerball in about a year, those with the power will be looking around for changes to bring in more profits.
Personally, I think lottery directors want that third, higher priced jackpot game. I'm betting it will be a $5 game and we may have it sooner than we think.
In my humble opinion, of course.
I would hate to see the commentary on Exxon's website when gas prices go up.
Think about it seriously. Gas for the most part is a NECESSITY. Gambling isn't but on the other the MUSL in effect is taking away our constitutional rights - THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS - lol!!!!
"Freedom of Speech? Keep reading and you will discover that freedom comes at a price!"
could not agree more, not a reg. pb player, but your reasoning is the same as how jersey came to have the highest state tax on winnings. @10.8%
not sure when this happened, boney526,maddog10,todd,anyone help me out on this one,but i'm sure the legislature passed it when most were asleep.
and the it was suppresed by the media, i did't know until i looked for it.
Extraordinary Popular Delusions & the Madness of Crowds -- Charles Mackay LL.D.
Actually, the lottery is hoping we all have learned enough Harry Potter that we all start trying to transform our losing tickets into a few gallons gas to offest our losses.
don't know much about harry potter,but still LOL,maybe a big pile of loosers could be fireplace starter.
If it's not too personal, how much do you spend on the lottery in a given week? Or are you one of those that waits for the jackpot to reach a certain level?
A lot of the WHINERS on here from what I can tell spend a dollar a week when they treat themselves to the weekly Dr. Pepper and the others buy a quick pick when the credit card isn't registering at the pump and they're forced to go inside to the cashier
yea, 21st century alchemy.
I only know what they told me.Here is their answer to my inquiry:
Hi, Mike!
Nothing in regards to the way the drawings work is changing.

Thanks Mike
Re: Gasoline, I've always felt this way......if three os us here decided to heist a gas station tomorrow, we'd be common criminals......but if the CEO's of three petroleum comanies decided to screw everyone in America who fuels up tomorrow 8 cents a gallon or so, they would be hot shot execs who are taking care of the shareholders, while stuffing their own pockets, of course.
As for PB, this is an interesting thread but let's face it, most of the people here saying they won't play it will play it, the MUSL knows that players will still play, and the 104 or so drawings for the year will produce 12 to 15 jackpot winners, and that's the way it is.
Those who run the lotteries love it when players look for consistency in something that's designed not to have any.
There is one and only one 'proven' system, and that is to book the action. No matter the game, let the players pick their own losers.
between $1.00 to $40.00

Safety First
Structure Tone is a leader in safety during construction. So when Novartis decided to renovate its facilities in New Jersey they turned to Structure Tone for its construction management services. For the past five years Structure Tone has been responsible for demolition; renovation; build-out; mechanical, electrical, and plumbing upgrades; fire protection and logistical planning work in facilities throughout the region. We are currently providing construction renovation and upgrade services on an on-going basis for Novartis in New Jersey through our master services agreement.
With work being completed in occupied spaces, special considerations were made for each project. Structure Tone's team, in conjunction with our safety director, developed a site specific safety program for each project to ensure that all employees, construction workers and visitors were cared for during construction.
Decommissioning and Construction of Laboratory Spaces
Structure Tone's work at Building 404 in New Jersey included architectural, plumbing, fire protection, mechanical and electrical demolition and renovation construction on three floors. Work also entailed the decommissioning and demolition of an existing laboratory and animal testing facilities. The project required a high level of logistical planning and coordination with Novartis, the architect and the building manager since construction was completed on all three floors simultaneously and while occupied by Novartis employees.
At the Old Mill Road in New York facility Structure Tone provided general contracting services for the renovation and expansion of a 2,500sf clean room. The project began with the demolition of the existing room—located in a highly sensitive laboratory area. The new space is a clean zone area and successfully met Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) standards and requirements. The project was conducted on an eight week, fast-track schedule. A key project feature was the installation of temporary walls with negative pressure in the existing adjacent packaging area in order to keep the packing plant's air system separate from the expanded area's system.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"I loved the design on this card. It was exactly what I was looking for. Something pretty, yet fun. The colors were my favorite. I will definitely be promoting Wedding Paper Divas!!!"
"The quality of the paper was what I was looking for. As soon as our guest received the invitations the calls started coming in. They "LOVE"d that the logo connected us to our wedding venue in Philadelphia which is known for its iconic LOVE statue in the center city area."
"This was perfect for my backyard wedding celebration with the green leaf fronds. Great paper quality, nice and thick. Only complaint was the spacing on the invitation, had a tough time getting it just right; the editing team didn't do it quite right. However, I am probably the only one that noticed this - everyone loved the invitations. I recommend this!"
"I love my invitations! They are perfect. I can't even explain..if you're debating on ordering...DO IT. so Worth it. The paper is thick, color is so real. I did not ge the response cards from them though because I did not like them. I just ordered an antique white basic card from david's bridal and worked out nicely."
"The cards were beautiful! The colors were vibrant and the wood looked life like. The only thing I have to note is that the invitation paper was simply card stock, not very fancy. This worked well for our wedding, but I didn't notice that before I ordered them."

Good afternoon from New York. There are a number of developments coming out of Iraq. On Nightly news this evening we will be reporting on today's raid by U.S. troops on what they're calling an al Qaeda prison in Diyala. Dozens of prisoners, some showing apparent signs of torture were set free in the raid. The operation is of particular significance to U.S. commanders because it was the result, they say, of Iraqi citizens stepping forward and speaking out against al Qaeda. It's the kind of progress the Bush administration is eager to highlight. In fact our John Yang will report that more of the pressure for success in Iraq is coming from Republicans. All sides are eagerly awaiting that progress report expected to come out in September.
If you watched the broadcast last night you no doubt heard rapid gunfire threatening to drown out Richard Engel's live report from outside a Palestinian refugee camp in Tripoli, Lebanon. I'm happy to report Richard is safe and he will update us on the fighting there between government troops and Islamic militants that has forced thousands of civilians to flee their homes.
We will also examine the rising price of food. The increasing demand for corn as a source of energy is having a ripple affect that many Americans are feeling at the grocery checkout aisle.
And our chief environmental correspondent Anne Thompson has a fascinating spot out of California where the rubber is truly meeting the road. Rubber sidewalks are apparently now giving a big bounce to the green movement.
We'll look for you tonight on NBC Nightly News.

Three candidates are vying for the Mayor's office in Dalhart.
Current Mayor Kevin Caddell decided not to run for re-election. That opened the door for others.
Caddell says, "It's always an interesting race when three are involved.
Observers say there's been a lot of mudslinging in this contentious race. They say it's been an ugly election. They say that's why early voting turnout has been so high, double, in fact over last election.
Gene Rawl is a businessman and former mayor. He says he promotes business and resources. "Like everybody else, we need to worry about water. We've got adequate water but we need to be ahead of the game."
Kurtis Thomas owns G&G Construction. He's currently a councilmember. "It doesn't matter where I go. People say one or two things about Dalhart. They say I've been through there. Or they say that little town is booming. And we are on the verge of doing some amazing things up here."
Tammi Kate Ledford is a reporter for the Dalhart Texan. "If Dalhart's residents are happy with the past, Gene Rawl's their guy. If they're happy with what they've got right now, it's obvious Kurtis Thomas is their man. If they want change, if they want progress, if they want future, a fresh outlook, I'm their girl.
Polls will be open this Saturday from seven to seven.

Do genes make people evil?
—Robert Schreib, Jr., Toms River, N.J.
Daniel Lametti, a neuroscientist at McGill University, responds: The Montreal apartment where I live is rife with evildoers—well, to be precise, there is at least one. A couple of weeks ago my newspaper, routinely delivered at 5 a.m. to my building's lobby, disappeared before I could scurry out of bed to collect it. To thwart the criminal, I asked my deliveryman to hurl the paper onto my third-floor balcony (thankfully, he has a good arm).
Admittedly, newspaper theft ranks low on the scale of evil acts. Still, I wouldn't steal a newspaper. I would like to think that under most circumstances I wouldn't steal at all. But many people do, and many also commit crimes that are much more sinister.
Scientists would like to know the root causes of evil behavior: Is it a product of our genes or environment? The answer appears to involve a combination of the two.
Since the 1960s psychologists have found that children who were abused and neglected are more likely to commit crimes later in life. Even so, researchers noted that most youngsters who are mistreated do not grow up to be criminals. Now our genes come into the picture.
A 2002 study found that a particular variation of a gene predicted antisocial behavior in men who were mistreated as children. The gene controls whether we produce an enzyme called monoamine oxidase A (MAOA), which at low levels has been linked to aggression in mice. The researchers found that boys who were neglected and who possessed a variation of the gene that produced low levels of MAOA were more likely to develop antisocial personality disorder, commit crimes and grow up to have a violent disposition. But those living in a similar environment who produced more of the enzyme rarely developed these problems.
Psychopaths are arguably the evilest of the evildoers. A study published in August 2010 looked at psychopathic tendencies in teenagers with low socioeconomic resources. The researchers found that adolescents who had a variation of another gene, which contributes to how quickly serotonin is recycled in the brain and which has been linked to hostile behavior in children, were more likely to exhibit signs of psychopathy.
These two recent findings provide strong evidence that evil behavior—mass murder, armed robbery, and perhaps even newspaper theft—might be caused by the right set of genes interacting with the wrong environment.

Help with mystery Scotch blend?
I recently purchased this bottle of blended Scotch from a whisky auction, and I am wondering if anyone has any information on this particular brand and blending firm. The shoulder label reads "Rich. Wilson & Co. Glasgow", and the main label says "Golden Cross World Renowned Scotch Whisky, Mild, Mellow, Matured, Rich. Wilson & Co. Glasgow" as well as "this rare old blend is distinguished by having a bouquet as in fine old matured wines" (see photos). There are two apparent marking on the glass: a "1" on the front of the bottle, and what appears to be a downward-pointing arrow on the reverse. The bottle it is sealed with a driven cork and lead capsule bearing the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom. In addition, an italian metal "fasci" tax seal is affixed to the capsule which dates the bottle to between 1933 and 1944. Any additional information about this bottle would be greatly appreciated!
Golden Cross
Have you tried looking on the bottom for the bottle manufacturer's marks? I'll admit I have not seen but 2 of these over the past few years, and can find no references to the manufacturer. Aside from this one you have, I have seen another in Italy, but the seller knows little about his bottle also. Curious to kow what you find out! Cheers, Walter C Hurst firstname.lastname@example.com |
Golden Cross
Hi Walter,
I just checked and alas there are no markings on the bottom of the bottle. This one's a head-scratcher... Cheers, Mike |

- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The House was built in 1923 as a summers home for cousins of the Wilder Family. The Carriage House (now used as a barn) was part of the old Ben Lomond Hotel that was burned down around 1915. Its owner was Fred Cody (cousin of Buffalo Bill Cody). The house was converted to a Bed and Breakfast in 1983. My mother bought the B&B in 1986 and it has been run by the Glasson family ever since. There are five bedrooms, all with private bathrooms. Four of the rooms can be used as two bedroom suites. The River Rock fireplace in the Great Room was made from the rocks found around the San Lorenzo River, which runs through the lower end of the three acre property. The back deck overlooks the river and the great mass of trees. Blackberries line the walkway and in September they are ripe for picking. The redwood grove boasts of a pond leftover from the Hotel and a waterfall has been added. Strolling through the property you will notice many areas available for conversation or merely relaxing. ... more less
