So I acquired a pair as a gift from a friend. Let's just say, I have a really hard time finding goggles that fit my face since I have high cheek bones.
I have minimal gap going on between the goggle and my nose. I don't think I will be able to find a goggle that sits on my face perfectly, but these certainly do the trick.
Also, nothing beats the I/O easy interchange of lenses. Makes life so much easier and not having to buy two different pair of goggles for your sunny and low-light days. Just get two difference lenses and switch them out.

These goggles are sweet looking but they are also pretty comfy and fit well. Simple design and ya gotta love changing your lens in about 30 sec. The periphery is not quite as good as i thought it would be but still a really great goggle.

This will be my forth year wearing these goggles, and I just don't think I can find a better pair! They fit really well with my Holt helmet, and the ability to just switch out a lens and have multiple pairs of goggles in one is key for me.

I've used the I/O goggles for the last two seasons and love them. My wife and now the kids love the I/OS because they're ideal for smaller faces. As one might expect the Smith goggles interface flawlessly with the Smith helmets, but the kids rock their goggles with POC helmets without the dreaded "Gaper Gap."
They look great, and the lens change is super simple and can be performed with your gloves on.

- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I ended up returning these after I got them in the mail. What I liked it that they do fit a small-medium face well. It seems like a good well built goggle,but... They look like a big lens from the outside but when you have them on its less than a normal goggle. I like the new look of these "all lens" goggles but it's its only cool from the outside and not for the person wearing them. The lens swap I found not to be very fast and easy. Honestly I can swap the lens on my regular Dragon goggles faster.

I had been wanting these for a while and finally decided to get them this winter. The fit of them is the best I have had out of any goggle. I have a smaller face and these don't make me look like a bug like a lot of others do. I have the Smith Vantage helmet and they fit perfectly together. I haven't had an issue with any fogging with them at all.
my favorite!

By far my favorite pair of goggles to date. Not only can you change out the lenses in a snap (it comes with two) but you can also buy replacement lenses as well. I bought an additional clear lens for night riding but that was all I needed. The best part about these is that they fit a smaller face. All other goggles I have had have been too large and create gaps by my nose. With the smaller lens shape I don't have that problem.
Perfect for all conditions

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
If you're thinking about getting a few different goggles for all conditions, save yourself some time and money and just snag a pair of these. The multiple lens system allows you to switch out lenses in less than a minute. That means that even if the sun comes out midday, your one pair of goggles will do the trick. On a side note, I thought the white goggles would go well with my helmet, but as a dude, don't get white.

Colleen, she is wearing the Giro Grove helmet, also purchased from Backcountry.com. Unfortunately it looks like they are out of stock right now. But it does indeed fit perfectly with the goggles so maybe keep checking back!

easiest lens change out i've used. i have the ignitor mirror and the extra sensor mirror- which i found both to be great for low light - but neither are really excellent for bright-bright (yes-i meant to say it twice) light - like super blue-bird days. might have to go with an entirely different lens.

A Look at Architect Michael Arad's 9/11 Memorial Waterfalls
Ribbons of water flow off a mock-up waterfall designed for the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, Friday, Jan. 22, 2010, at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in New York. The 30-foot waterfall will cascade down the sides of the footprints of the destroyed World Trade Center towers, forming reflecting pools surrounded by the terrorist attack victims' names.

By: Ula Ilnytzky, Associated Press Writer
The waterfalls meant to evoke memories of the Sept. 11 dead stand three stories high in a field in Brooklyn, spilling down into a pool. Four large American flags poke through the grass to mark off each corner of a World Trade Center tower footprint.
For more than three weeks, builders of the Sept. 11 memorial have been tinkering with details like water flow and year-round heating with a mock-up of the cascades, part of Michael Arad's "Reflecting Absence" memorial at ground zero.
The architect saw the waterfalls which will empty into huge reflecting pools set above the spots where the towers once stood tested for the first time Friday as they were demonstrated for The Associated Press.
"One of the things I wanted the water and the design to do is to mark this continuous sense of absence," Arad said. "These voids, even though water falls into them ... they never fill up, they always remain empty, and that was very important to me," he added.
The waterfall-filled pools are the centerpiece of a memorial plaza that will take up half of the 16-acre site at ground zero. The pools will be surrounded by hundreds of sweetgum and white oak trees on a cobblestoned plaza; a memorial museum is being built below ground that will open about a year after the memorial.
The foundation overseeing the memorial raised $350 million privately to build it; the government agency that owns ground zero is spending hundreds of millions more on infrastructure at the site. Two of five planned skyscrapers and a multibillion-dollar transit hub are also under construction.
The waterfall mock-up being tested in Brooklyn is 40 feet wide, representing a corner of two walls of one pool a fraction of its actual 176-foot perimeter. The waterfalls will drop 30 feet and then another 16 feet into a center void. Each will pump 26,000 gallons of water per minute.
Visitors on Friday looked up at the waterfalls. Once the memorials open at ground zero in lower Manhattan by the 10th anniversary of the 2001 attack, visitors will look down on them from street level. A low wall covered by bronze panels inscribed with nearly 3,000 victims' names will surround the pools.
Both the waterfalls and the name panels will be backlit at night, giving them a glow that will reinforce "the memorial is about the absence of the 2,982 people that were lost," said Joe Daniels, who heads the foundation overseeing the memorial.
The mock-up was created primarily to test the weir, a small dam with fingerlike structures that helps create a rope-like water flow. It's where the water falls from the plaza level down to the base of the pool.
"The testing was required so that just the right veil of water ... is exactly what the designers are hoping to achieve," Daniels said.
The weir, made of darkened stainless steel, will be installed at ground zero within a few months after the rest of the mock-up is dismantled next week.
Memorial builders have tested the waterfalls' mechanism in Brooklyn dozens of times, adjusting and tweaking the flow of the water and how it hit the pool. They even tested to see whether flowers and other mementos left by visitors would disrupt the flow if they got stuck between the grooves.
"We've got it to the point where we've conquered the beast," project manager Ron Vega said Friday.
Once the waterfalls are turned on, "our intention is to run it forever," he said.
Memorial builders will probably fully install the waterfalls by spring 2011 so that they run by Sept. 11, 2011, Vega said.
The Brooklyn site also has a mock-up of the wall that will support the name panels. Most of it is in wood, but a 10-foot section is fashioned with the materials that will be used at the memorial site: granite for the walls, bronze for the name panels.
Fictitious names were cut into the metal and left outdoors since March to determine how the bronze would react to outdoor elements, whether snow or leaves would get stuck in lettering.
"Something like 1,400 linear feet of bronze, a massive amount" will be used for the panels, said Daniels. Each pool will have 76 name panels.
The mock-up also resulted in cutting off the sharp edges of the wall corner, enabling wheelchairs to pull up close. After the change, Arad realized the twin towers had similar edges.
A smaller mock-up of the waterfalls was tested in Canada four years ago. Made of plywood, it was built to see how it would function in extreme cold and to document levels of the falling water.
Builders later decided to install heaters that could be turned on when the temperature drops below freezing. But hiding the device while still making it accessible presented a challenge, he said.
A design adjustment that slightly separated the falls at the uppermost corner took care of that, allowing the device to be hidden in that spot under the metal of the weir. The small alteration also made the two corner falls appear more distinct from one another.
"I'm hoping the sound of the water will create a sense of place and being somewhat buffered from the city beyond while still being firmly within it," Arad said, creating "an environment that is conducive to contemplation in the middle of the city."

This is quite a random and accidental LOTD... because I already had on my foundation, brows and blush when I headed out for dinner and drinks Sat evening. When I got home, I thought why not play around with my eyeshadows and do a full face makeup before I wash everything off for the day? And so this is what I ended up with....
I mainly tried using all my eyeshadows wet in this LOTD..and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed it. I used a couple of old angled liner brushes to create the sharp lines for this look, and also to pack on the colors at precise areas of the eyes.
Shall 'talk' through the whole eyelook as I go along.... and all products used will be listed at the end of this entry.
I subconsciously did this look based on NikkieTutorials' video HERE which is a Beyonce inspired look.
Using black eyeshadow WET as a liner
I first line my eyes on the upper and lower lids, a rather bold and winged look. I sprayed my brush with MAC Fix+ and dipped it into a corner of a black glittery eyeshadow from Inglot. I am amazed, and astounded, really...by how pigmented, smooth the results is. I could draw very clean and precise lines, and I didn't have to dip back in the pan at all til I am ready to do the other eye. And when the wet eyeshadow dries...the look is a ultra black matte effect. I even used it to line my lower waterline.
Purple liner!
I double-lined my lower lids with MUFE#92, a brilliant vibrant purple to further define the lower lids, and to add a pop of color. I also used a damp brush to apply this eyeshadow.
Golden highlights
Next, I also used a rather antiqued gold eyeshadow, again, from Inglot to brighten up the inner corners of the eyes. I later also used the same shadow to dust on some shine on the centre of my upper lids.
Upper lids & Crease
I used yet another Inglot eyeshadow to soften up the look and add color to my eyelids up to the crease. This time, I used a fluffy brush and did not wet the eyeshadow. Then I finish off with brow highlights.
I did not use any eyeliner at all, because using the eyeshadows wet means I could draw very sharp liners, and define my eyes. The colors remained vibrant as ever after they are dried.. and there was no fall out at all because of the moisture.
All products used:
Foundation - Ettusais BB Cream, Maquillage White Essence UV foundation, La Mer Powder to set
Cheeks - Clarins Mosaique bronzer, Laneige Styling Romantic Blush #01
Lips - Laneige Styling Romantic Lip Duo SYR34
Eyes - UDPP base, Purple Liner MUFE #92, Black Liner Inglot AMC#64 (Black with gold sparkles), Gold Accent Inglot AMC Shine 06, Lid & Crease AMC 53 (Deep Brown with silvery blue sparkles), Brow Highlight Inglot Pearl 395
After this whole experiment, I removed every trace of makeup with Bioderma, and wiped my face with MAC wipes, before using my facial cleanser...and then my night time skincare routine.
That's all, and hope you enjoyed this look!

Osho,I have known frustration attempting to describe my mystical experiences to people. It is like trying to explain what an orgasm is to someone that has never known one. One can say it is like a wave of pleasure or like a sneeze, but the reality of the experience is much more satisfying than the words convey.Verbalizing something seen or felt can leave one exhausted. Even if one can lead another up to the experience, it is the prerogative of the other person to be receptive. You can't really give another person an orgasm; they have to permit themselves to experience it. Dearest Osho, I am so grateful for the immense bliss I have known through meditation. One problem: how does one talk about it?
There is no problem at all. One simply does not talk about it. It is almost an impossibility. You can talk around and around, but you cannot talk directly about it. There is every possibility that you will be misunderstood.
You can say what is happening to you; you can express in your actions, in your behavior, in your postures, in your gestures, what is happening to you. Because a man or a woman of meditation has a grace which does not come in any other way, has a beauty which is not physical, has a spontaneity which people have almost forgotten. They only go on repeating their past experiences, rarely are they spontaneous – just right in the moment, like a mirror reflecting the situation and allowing the response to arise in oneself on its own.
You can live meditation – that is the only way to convey some fragrance of it and some fragmentary indications about it. But talking about it…the words are too small.
And words are meant for the marketplace, not for the temple. The temple knows only the language of silence, and when you try to convert silence into sound, everything that was living in it disappears and what is left in your hands is a dead word. And the difficulty is multiple. First, you cannot bring your experience into words; secondly, the person who hears them hears according to his own conditioning.
A Japanese scholar had come to see me a few years ago, and I told him that all his problems needed only one solution, and that is meditation. If you try to solve each single problem separately it will be like pruning the leaves of a tree – you go on pruning, and new leaves will go on coming up. Meditation is like uprooting a tree; the very foundation is demolished. This much he understood, but the word meditation created a problem. Immediately he asked, "I am ready to meditate, but tell me, on what?"
That is our whole mind's approach – objective. Even meditation has to be on something – a name, a form, a god, a chanting, a mantra, but something has to be there. Otherwise how are you going to meditate? On what?
The reality is, English has no word to translate exactly the Sanskrit word dhyan. English has three words: concentration, contemplation, meditation. But they are all objective. In concentration you put your whole mind energy on one subject. It is a useful technique for all scientific research. No science can grow without concentration.

Man stuck in tunnel for 4 days survives
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (CNN/KTVX) - Stuck in a tunnel for days. No food. No water. A broken leg. No cellphone either. What would you do?
"I really thought I was going to die," said Daniel Samuelsen.
The 33-year-old spent three nights alone, trapped in a tunnel in the foothills east of Salt Lake City. Samuelsen says he was hiking when he fell into the tunnel.
"I went down at an incline like this, just at full speed, and I hit the bottom of that and I heard the crack with my right leg and I put my hand down there to grab it, to feel what was wrong and could literally feel the bone protruding out of my leg," said Samuelsen.
His leg broke in the fall. His cellphone was dead.
"I took some rocks and banged them up against the side of the tunnel and I screamed for help," he said.
But no one could hear his screams. After four days with no food or water since the fall, the starving and thirsty hiker had to do something.
"I found a piece of wood I thought I could use as a splint and I tied it to my leg and decided that the only way I was going to survive was to get myself out of there," said Samuelsen.
He began to crawl. Two hours later, he saw a man on the highway.
"I've never been happier to see a human being," he said.

Courage, no contest. So much ATV Offroad Fury 2 nostalgia with that one. I'd play with my friend and we'd loop that song over and over again.
Movies is the only other song of theirs that i know besides Smooth Criminal
and i'm sure hes asking cause this would be the one song they use to "test the water" of RBN to see if it would be worth it to continue support. or its just a wish list thread.
Movies... The only other song I know by them haha
This news brightened my day so much I had to come back and post on these forums once last time. I absolutely love AAF and ANThology was one of the first cds I ever bought as a kid. I'm absolutely positive that "Movies" and "Wish" would be excellent picks and highly popular tracks. I'd also like to suggest "Courage" and "Attitude". But as one other poster suggested earlier in this thread and if AAF is reading, I will absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE you forever if you brought "Glow" to the game. I know it's not from ANThology but "Glow" is my favorite AAF track and would be the most enjoyable track to play in Rock Band for a long time.
I'd love to give everyone candy corn.
I can't choose just one. Big fan of the band. I'd say to get "Movies" on there, first. Once they see how well you treated one of their biggest hits, they'll hopefully want to work with you more. I also love "Wish" and "Stranded" as other votes from me.

Lisa Stewart wants to accomplish even more than seeing thousands of poor children around the world receive their first stuffed animal.
Through the charity she founded, Gifts for the Heart International, the 35-year-old mother of four wants American children to learn how fortunate they are and how much they can help other children. She and her husband, Josh Stewart, live in Bellingham with their children.
Question: What's been the local response to your requests for stuffed animals?
Answer: It has been absolutely wonderful. After I spoke to the students at Bellingham Christian School, they donated over 300 stuffed animals when they decided to do a drive. I talk about poverty, my organization, and what our children can do to help children in need.
Earlier, after I spoke at Northern Heights Elementary School, we were overwhelmed with more than 400 stuffed animals.
Q: So you ask kids to donate one of their stuffed animals to children in a developing country?
A: Yes, although adults also donate. I've spoken to hundreds of children at three schools and one church so far, and I would love to speak at many more.
So far, in the last year, we've been able to send about 1,200 stuffed animals to Haiti, Guatemala, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Bolivia and Thailand. Eventually, I'd like to see them go out to every continent.
Q: What part does the children's book you're holding play in your organization?
A: This is "Elizabeti's Doll" by Stephanie Stuve-Bodeen. I actually discovered the book at my daughter Olivia's open house at Northern Heights on the same day I decided to form Gifts for the Heart International.
It's a sweet book based on a true story. I quickly realized it's the perfect book to explain what we're doing.
Q: How so?
A: Elizabeti is a little girl living in poverty in Tanzania. She doesn't have a doll or a stuffed animal, but she finds a rock to take care of. In the last picture, she's shown sleeping with her rock.
Instead of a rock to love, I ask our local children how wouldn't it be better if she could have a stuffed animal. American children often do not understand that children in many countries don't have something as simple as a stuffed animal.
Q: That must make quite an impact on a child.
A: Originally I just wanted to donate stuffed animals, but I also came to realize how much this could help our children to learn, too, so it has become a two-pronged mission.
Q: How do you ship the animals?
A: I've reached out to various organizations to transport them, especially Starfish Ministries, which works in Haiti. You wouldn't believe how many stuffed animals can fit in a vacuum-sealed suitcase!
Q: Did anything in particular prompt you to start your charity?
A: What prompted me was my passion for helping people and the love the children in our family have for stuffed animals. And I've always dreamed of doing something bigger than my day-to-day life, something that could really help people.
Michelle Nolan is a Bellingham freelance writer.
- People can donate stuffed animals to Gifts for the Heart International at Half Pints Children's Consignment, 2701 Meridian St., Bellingham.
- To arrange to donate money or stuffed animals, or to invite Lisa Stewart to speak to a school or group, contact her at 206-618-6972 or email@example.com. Her website is giftsfortheheart.org.

10 facts on noncommunicable diseases
Updated March 2013
WHO/C. de Bode
Noncommunicable - or chronic - diseases are diseases of long duration and generally slow progression. The four main types of noncommunicable diseases are cardiovascular diseases (like heart attacks and stroke), cancer, chronic respiratory diseases (such as chronic obstructed pulmonary disease and asthma) and diabetes.
Noncommunicable diseases, or NCDs, are by far the leading cause of death in the world, representing 63% of all annual deaths. Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) kill more than 36 million people each year. Some 80% of all NCD deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries.

Heart attack symptoms: Know what's a medical emergency
By Mayo Clinic staffTypical heart attack symptoms
Symptom | Description |
Chest discomfort or pain | This discomfort or pain can feel like a tight ache, pressure, fullness or squeezing in the center of your chest lasting more than a few minutes. This discomfort may come and go. |
Upper body pain | Pain or discomfort may spread beyond your chest to your shoulders, arms, back, neck, teeth or jaw. You may have upper body pain with no chest discomfort. |
Stomach pain | Pain may extend downward into your abdominal area and may feel like heartburn. |
Shortness of breath | You may pant for breath or try to take in deep breaths. This often occurs before you develop chest discomfort or you may not experience any chest discomfort. |
Anxiety | You may feel a sense of doom or feel as if you're having a panic attack for no apparent reason. |
Lightheadedness | In addition to chest pressure, you may feel dizzy or feel like you might pass out. |
Sweating | You may suddenly break into a sweat with cold, clammy skin. |
Nausea and vomiting | You may feel sick to your stomach or vomit. |
Most heart attacks begin with subtle symptoms — with only discomfort that often is not described as pain. The chest discomfort may come and go. Don't be tempted to downplay your symptoms or brush them off as indigestion or anxiety.
Don't "tough out" heart attack symptoms for more than five minutes. Call 911 or other emergency medical services for help. If you don't have access to emergency medical services, have someone drive you to the nearest hospital. Drive yourself only as a last resort, if there are absolutely no other options.
Heart attack symptoms vary widely. For instance, you may have only minor chest discomfort while someone else has excruciating pain. One thing applies to everyone, though: If you suspect you're having a heart attack, call for emergency medical help immediately.

Chapter One
Oh my God, do you know how many calories are in that? Angie shakes her head in disbelief.
Riley Thomas looks down at the tall stack of pancakes the waitress had just set in front of her. She frowns, as though considering what her sister had said. Then she shrugs and drizzles syrup all over her pancakes.
You cant eat that! Angie continues. Its not healthy!
Riley stares Angie directly in the eyes and shoves the largest bite she can manage into her mouth.
Ew! Angie wrinkles her nose in disgust.
Dammit, Angie, let me eat! she says, bits of pancake sticking to the corners of her mouth.
Riley, we will not use that language, Mrs. Thomas reprimands. As soon as Riley begins to protest, she quickly adds, And Angela, dont bother Riley about her food.
Angie concentrates on picking the blueberries out of her muffin and Riley eats her pancakes.
Man, I like it when they fight, Charlie says. He stirs his chocolate milk.
The Thomas family is sitting in the local Dennys eating brunch. Later that day, Riley has a flight bound for Los Angeles to record vocals for the Formats second album.
How strange, Riley thinks. People across America know my name and face. Im a famous rock star, so to speak, but even I cant escape the awkward family meal.
Mrs. Thomas turns a concerned face to Riley. Now, youre sure Evan is meeting you at the L.A. airport?
Riley rolls her eyes. For the thousandth time, Mum, yes. Hell be there. He promised.
Are you sure? Angie asks. She arches an eyebrow. What if he forgets you?
I highly doubt my own boyfriend will forget me!
Oooh, boyfriend, Charlie shouts gleefully.
Am I the only normal person in this family? Riley snaps.
Come on, honey, your father and I are quite normal, Mrs. Thomas says. She pats her husband, who hasnt said anything, on the arm.
You bought a pet turtle for no reason
Its not any stranger than you being a rock star, Riley. Angie grimaces at her.
Shut up! Riley throws a packet of grape jam at Angie and it bounces off the side of her head. Mum, does she really have to go on tour with me? I dont need a babysitter!
Its not a babysitter, honey, its a personal assistant, Mrs. Thomas reasons. I dont like the thought of you in a different country without someone you know.
I know the guys in the band! And Evan said hell come for some of the tour dates.
I dont want you surrounded by young, hormonal males. Id just feel more comfortable having Angie there, although I do think Evan is a very nice man.
Oh, Im sure he is, Angie juts in. Thats why hes barely called Riley, his girlfriend, this whole month!
Hes been overseas! Riley tries to explain.
Yes with all those groupies. And lets not forget those European girls
Dammit, Angie, just because your husband left you doesnt mean Evan will do that to me!
Angie blushes. He didnt leave it was mutual! She stumbles over her words.
Sure. Riley licks syrup off of her fork. Lets ask his secretary, shall we?
The blush in her face pales. She dives out of the booth and rushes to the bathroom.
Her parents glaring at her, Riley sighs. I know, I know Ill go wait in the car and think of an apology. She slips on her jacket and steps outside into the cool air, leaving her plate of half-eaten pancakes behind.
A few minutes later, the rest of the family exits the restaurant, Angie stomping behind them. The car ride is quiet.
At the airport, Mrs. Thomas clutches Riley tightly. Honey, go and make me proud! Im going to miss you!
Ill miss you too but if you dont let go I think Im gonna pass out. Riley is gasping for air when her mother releases her. She says goodbye to the rest of her family and pauses when she comes to Angie. Look, Im sorry, okay? she says so only they can hear.
Angie shrugs her shoulders. Whatever.
I guess Ill see you on tour soon
I guess so.

Fills Four District Positions
New head coach comes from 5A school ranks
Superintendent Dan Troxell, Ph.D., and the Board of Trustees of the Kerrville Independent School District have announced the filling of four district positions.
Candidates selected are David Jones, District Athletic Director/Tivy High School Varsity Head Football Coach; Wade Ivy, Assistant Superintendent for Administration and Human Resources; Kevin Jordan, Head Band Director; and Jamie Fails, Media and Public Relations Specialist.
David Jones has been named Athletic Director and THS Varsity Head Football Coach for Tivy High School. Jones is currently Head Coach and campus athletic coordinator at Cypress Woods High School in Houston, a 5A high school. During the four-year varsity history of the school, Cypress Woods has a record of 38-13, and has advanced to the 3rd, 4th, 4th, and 2nd rounds of the 5A playoffs each of the past four seasons.
Prior to his arrival at Cypress Woods, Jones was offensive coordinator at two other 5A schools - Jersey Village High School in Houston, and Allen High School in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. He also worked in Oklahoma high schools as Head Football Coach at Edmond North High School, offensive coordinator at Edmond Memorial High School, and quarterback coach at Westmoore High School. As quarterbacks coach at Ouachita Christian School, Jones helped the school win a Louisiana state championship.
Jones' wife, Holly, is an elementary school principal in Tomball, and they have three children.
"Coach Jones is a man of the highest integrity," Dr. Troxell said. "We are confident he will lead all of our district's athletic programs to excellence. We are truly excited for our student athletes, our staff, our parents, and our community."
Dr. Troxell cited the work of the eight-member selection committee, which has spent hours reviewing and interviewing finalists for the position.
"I want to thank all the members of the interview committee," Dr. Troxell said. "The community representatives are all Tivy High School graduates, and the group made strong decisions in a professional and timely manner."
Committee members included: Robert Jolly, Administration; Robert Templeton, Tivy High School Principal; Gary Jones, Interim Athletic Director; Heather Engstrom, THS Dean of Instruction; Gary Miears, Sr., THS graduate, retired Texas educator, and former KISD board member; Mike Dyal, THS graduate, former college and NFL football player, and Kerrville businessman; and Matt Ayala, THS graduate, former THS athlete, and current student at Texas A&M - Corpus Christi.
Wade Ivy, Assistant Superintendent for Administration and Human Resource
Wade Ivy will move from Principal at Nimitz Elementary School into Central Office as Assistant Superintendent for Administration and Human Resources. Ivy has been part of the Kerrville Independent School District for 18 years. He most recently served as principal of Nimitz Elementary School for 11 years. Prior to that, Ivy taught English and served as an administrator at Hal Peterson Middle School. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Schreiner University and a Masters of Education from Sul Ross University.
"Wade is a man of incredible work ethic and loyalty," Dr. Troxell said. "He is a consummate professional educator, and we are excited to bring him into the Central Office."
Kevin Jordan, Head Band Director
Kevin Jordan steps up as Tivy High School Head Band Director after five years in the same position at Hal Peterson Middle School. Prior to coming to KISD, Jordan was Director of Music for 10 years at the Vanguard Institute in Boerne. He earned his Bachelor of Music Studies from the University of Texas at San Antonio, and his Masters of Music from Texas A&M University in Commerce.
"Kevin is a man of great compassion," Dr. Troxell said. "He cares deeply for children and he knows the subject of music extremely well. Students at Tivy High School will be thrilled to have their middle school band director lead them through their high school years."
Jamie Fails, Media and Public Relations Specialist
Jamie Fails will become Media and Public Relations Specialist after 10 years of teaching, the past five years at Daniels Elementary School. Fails also worked two years as account executive for Vollmer Public Relations in Houston, serving clients in mental health, entertainment, and business industries. She has a Bachelors of Arts in Communication, with a concentration in Electronic Media.
"To find someone within our district of Jamie's ability and background is truly amazing," Dr. Troxell said. "She has a lot of energy and visionary ideas which we will start using in the next school year."

Topic 1958 evinrude fastwin restoration Posted by fergal butler
As if I haven't enough on my plate I am going to restore this little baby as she has a bit of history to a forum members family. I started off doing a compression test and one cylinder was very low not a good start As it had been sitting in a barn for the last 30 years I decided to put a bit of WD40 in and let it sit over night hoping it was just stuck rings. I did the test again and was getting 125 psi on each Bottom Top I had a look at the gear oil and of course it was half full of water:grrr: it had been sitting for so long it looked like you could drink the water if you held your nose Next I took off the air breather to have a look at the carb It looks like some sort of spider lived in here, what a mess. Even the carb was full of spider **** or what looks like sawdust. Can things get worse, O yes they can. I checked for a spark and guess what...........none so out with the harmonic balancer and off with the flywheel. I think I found the problem. Parts ordered carb rebuild kit,coils,condensers and points I also want to change it to a standard fuel tank from a pressurised one so I ordered a mikuni pulse pump the plan is to get the engine to run before I decide to carry on with the rest of the rebuild.
Quote: You can still get most of the parts for this engine as it was unchanged for 20 years Marineparts do some and the rest I got on line, the cowling parts and decals I'm getting from [www.nymarine.ca] not cheep but good copies.
Jeepers Fergal, is there any project you won't take on.....? Fair play to ye, and you make such a great job of them. I remember the first time I seen Sean-Nos as we pulled up alongside you at a roundabout near Galway on the way to the Corrib. Noone in the car would believe me that you had built it yourself......! Keep the pics coming, it's always a pleasure to watch a craftsman at work..... Rgds Richard and Mags (Reflection)
Quote: 1 Did you do a compression test on it, 2 Is the spark good and strong. 3 Are the plugs wet if you take them out after trying to start it. Put a drop of fuel into each cylinder and try and start it if it kicks a few times then try a few drops into the carb it should run for a little bit if so your problem is more than likely your fuel pump or a blocked jet in the carb. If your having a hard time getting parts let me know and I will try and find them for you. Best of luck.
Enough of this engine you can have it back now If there is one thing I hate about old engines it's sized and corroded nuts and bolts it took a few hours just to get the intake manifold off, there is something about steel bolts and aluminium they do not like each other for very long let alone 50 years Still a bit more stripping to do so I will let them soak in WD40 over the weekend then the next job is to get all the paint off and fix any dings before the etch primer.
Quote: I wonder is she getting too much fuel from the bigger carb and flooding the engine, next time it happens have a look at the plugs to see if there is a lot of unburnt fuel.
Cheers guys, Well I think I found why this engine was put away the two condenser wires were rubbing off the flywheel making them arc out, with the new ones I will hold the wires down with cable ties to be sure to be sure. After finding this I rebuilt the carb and put in the new electrics and then this happened " click the pic" Now to strip it back down and get sanding.
Out with the old and in with the new, the new condensers are much lower than the old ones so they must have copped on to that problem . Here you can see the old float next to the new one it mush have been dying of thirst the new needle valve now comes with a little clip on spring to stop it from sticking as the last one just relayed on gravity. Rebuild kit fitted and a bit of a clean should be as good as new or even better.
All the parts back after been vapor blasted by [www.tadltd.ie] they also do antifoul removal and have a mobile unit. With vapor blasting you can remove paint by the layer it's so fine and it will not harm the aluminium you can even polish with it, I have it dull with an etched finish to give the zinc chromate primer a good hold.
Hi Fergal, At the rate your going you will have it looking "better than new....". That vapour blasting looks like some job. Is it expensive, what would be the going rate for a quantity of components like you have shown ? (I know a certain Motorcycle fan who may have a use for such a service.....) R Rgds Richard and Mags (Reflection)

Does My SMB Need a Server?
The Mistake SMBs Make
It is surprising that the majority of companies never bother implementing a client/server based network. Instead they just continued adding on workstations to their old peer-to-peer network.
Peer-to-peer networks don't provide you with much in the way of security and resource sharing. So, not surprisingly, they often have problems accessing workstations, lose data due to viruses or spyware, or experience intermittent Internet problems. PCs networked in a peer-to-peer fashion are adequate when you only have a few users on the network, but once you have more than 5 or 6 users on your network, then you really need to consider investing in a network server.
Nevertheless, convincing a small business owner to make this type of investment can be a hard sell. Unlike large corporations, small businesses don't have the benefit of an IT department and/or the deep pockets necessary to maintain a complex IT infrastructure. However, network servers don't have to be overly expensive or complex for you to benefit from them.

Wild Goose 2012 weekend, Photo by Cathleen Falsani / Sojourners
by Bryan Parys from Sojourners
Chris is an atheist and a humanist chaplain at Harvard University. He is the only explicitly nonreligious speaker invited to the 2012 Wild Goose Festival in Shakori Hills, N.C.—a festival that is generally (and with exception) aimed at the liberal, often-invisible fringe members of the Christian community. Being that I theoretically fall into this group, Chris offered me his plus-one free ticket.
While it generally takes an act of God (or, "a series of convergences" Chris might say) for me to make a decision, I told him I'd go. After all, I'd been experiencing my own dark night of the soul where almost every conversation I've had about religion/ Christianity over the last year has been doubt-ridden and cynical. In my best mood, I hoped my attendance would put me in touch with some other cynics, believing it might relieve my cosmic guilt. What I secretly feared, however, was that I was going to Wild Goose to break up with the Christian faith I'd grown up under.
