"He is such an asset to the GB national team and his hard work and commitment were fantastic throughout the tournament.
"We are on the verge of something special with the national team and I know that Doug has the same ambitions as me for Great Britain.

Bruton Smith follows fate into a legendary career
RELATED: Best photos from 2016 Hall of Fame induction CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Bruton Smith didn't make good on the opportunity to become a legendary race car driver. So he did the next best thing. He became a promoter. He ran race tracks. And then he built and bought speedways. And then he improved those speedways. And then he improved them some more. Folks noticed. And pretty soon, everyone else was scrambling to catch up. Smith , along with drivers Curtis Turner, Bobby Isaac, Terry Labonte and Jerry Cook, was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Saturday. It was fitting – Smith had dealings of some sort with each of his fellow inductees through the years. Higher powers got him out from behind the wheel. A savvy business sense put him on the road to success operating race tracks. "I wanted to be a race driver," Smith , 88, said during his induction speech inside the Crown Ballroom of the Charlotte Convention Center. "I had a real strong desire to do that so I bought a race car for $700 ... that's a lot of money then. ... "So I started driving, and I learned how to drive, and it was not as difficult as I thought it was. I thought, 'OK, now I've got my career going.' His father, he said, didn't have an issue with his career choice at the time. His mother felt differently. "He just said, 'Be careful, boy.' I was, but my mom had a problem with it," Smith said, "And she said, 'I wish you wouldn't do that,' and I heard that a dozen times, I guess, and my mother was a very religious person, and my mom started praying I would quit. "Well, I knew then when she did that it was time for me to quit because I was not going to compete with that. That's when I quit, and I went over on the other side, and I started promoting races." Today Speedway Motorsports, Inc., owns and operates eight tracks that host 12 of the 36 annual premier series points races on the NASCAR schedule. Charlotte Motor Speedway , built by Smith and Turner in 1959, also hosts the series' annual all-star (non-points) event. MORE: NASCAR Hall of Fame inducts Class of 2016 CMS was the first facility to offer condominiums overlooking the track, and was the first intermediate track to feature lights, allowing races to be run at night. Atlanta and Texas Motor Speedway , both SMI properties, also feature condominiums; there's "Big Hoss," the world's largest HDTV screen along the backstretch at TMS and a 16,000-square-foot HD screen at CMS. Among the many features at Las Vegas Motor Speedway is the Neon Garage to get fans close to the action, while Bristol Motor Speedway officials are constructing the world's largest outdoor, permanent, center-hung digital display. RELATED: Bristol to get 'Colossus' for 2016 "I've told people before that he doesn't do things to get awards," son Marcus Smith said. "He doesn't really relish a victory as much as he does a challenge, and that's probably something in common with a lot of Hall of Famers, I would guess. "He's certainly someone who just relishes the challenge, loves the climb and when he achieves a goal, he quickly moves to the next opportunity and the next challenge." Saturday's induction ceremony, delayed one day by Winter Storm Jonas, was the seventh since the Hall opened in 2010. Smith , who grew up east of Charlotte in tiny Oakboro, North Carolina is the third non-competitor (driver, owner, crew chief or engine builder) to be inducted. NASCAR founder William H.G. France and son Bill France Jr., were among those in the inaugural class. " Bruton should have been in the Hall before now," NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick said earlier this week. "I remember him calling me one day, wanting me to buy a condo at the track. I said 'Bruton if I buy a condo it's going to be overlooking the ocean somewhere and not at a race track.' About two years later, I paid more to get one. "His mind is racing all the time; he's done so much for the sport. He's so brave to step out and try things that have never been tried before. It's past time for him to go in the Hall. "He's a sharp guy. He helped build this sport and it's well deserved." Fellow team owner Roger Penske called Smith "special," and "someone who has brought so much to NASCAR." "When you think about the Charlotte Motor Speedway and Bristol, and tracks like New Hampshire and Sonoma and Atlanta, he's been the best," Penske said. "There's no question. He set the bar."
Bruton Smith builds Hall of Fame career brick by brick
RELATED: Learn more about the NASCAR Hall of Fame There's a possibility, albeit remote, that O. Bruton Smith could be entering the NASCAR Hall of Fame as a race car driver instead of a race promoter extraordinaire. Smith , at age 17, bought a race car and decided to be a professional driver. "One time, I actually beat (NASCAR Hall of Famers) Buck Baker and Joe Weatherly," Smith said in a May 7, 2005, interview with Motorsport.com. "So I knew when I beat them I could be a contender, right?" Smith's mother, however, believed otherwise and appealed to a Higher Authority. She prayed her son would change his mind. "She started fighting dirty," Smith said in the same interview. "You can't fight your mom and God, so I stopped driving." NASCAR stock car racing became the beneficiary of the intervention. Smith turned to race promotion, ultimately creating some of America's greatest facilities. His eight-track Speedway Motorsports Inc. (SMI), anchored by Charlotte Motor Speedway , helped boost the sport to new heights in the 1950s and was the first American motorsports company to go public in 1995. The Oakboro, North Carolina native is part of the NASCAR Hall of Fame's class of 2016 that includes Jerry Cook, Bobby Isaac, Terry Labonte and Curtis Turner. Induction ceremonies will be held Jan. 22 in Charlotte, N.C. and will be broadcast live at 8 p.m. by the NBCSN. Born on a farm in rural North Carolina, Smith never considered an agricultural life. He hated the thought of being poor, which a childhood during the throes of the Great Depression appeared to suggest. "You have food, clothing and shelter but you never have any money and I never did like that. I did not like that," Smith said in a July 2003 Car & Driver story authored by Bob Zeller. "You worked from sunup to sundown, but you never did see the rewards." By 1949, Smith had his own stock car racing association, the National Stock Car Racing Association, which was a direct competitor to William H.G. "Big Bill" France's fledgling NASCAR. Both groups fought for the same drivers and neither was making much money. France and Smith discussed a possible merger in 1950 but the Korean War and U.S. Army scuttled the negotiations. Smith was drafted, served two years stateside as a paratrooper and by the time he mustered out the NSCRA was defunct. Smith began to be noticed in 1954 when he took over promotion of the half-mile track at the Charlotte Fairgrounds. Motorsports writer Russ Catlin wrote of "the genius of a 27-year-old fanatic named Bruton Smith … who took a poorly lighted, run-down half-mile track that wends around a muddy lake and built it into a spectacular speed emporium." In partnership with Turner and others, Smith built Charlotte Motor Speedway , completed in 1960 at a cost of $1.5 million. The first Coca-Cola 600 – then the World 600 – was the facility's opening event. Eventually, Smith decided just owning the 1.5-mile track wasn't enough. Boosting its profile meant adding seats, building suites and condos for VIP customers – and changing demographics of ticket buyers and sponsors. "He took a cue from the oil industry in World War II when they were trying to get women who were suddenly driving the family car to stop in and pump gas at their service stations," said CMS' then-general manager Humpy Wheeler. "What they did was clean up the stations and make sure they had a decent women's rest room." By 2000, the track's customer base was 40 percent female. "I took the position that Charlotte Motor Speedway was constantly under construction," said Smith , a statement that describes how the now 88-year-old entrepreneur views his racing empire. Fueled in part by public stock offerings, Smith acquired Atlanta Motor Speedway in 1990 and Bristol Motor Speedway in 1996 – expanding the latter from 71,000 to 160,000 seats. SMI bought Sonoma Raceway in 1996, Las Vegas Motor Speedway in 1997, New Hampshire Motor Speedway in 2007 and Kentucky Speedway in 2008. Smith built and opened Texas Motor Speedway – SMI's signature project – in 1997, which rose from the prairie outside Fort Worth. The track later added Big Hoss TV, the world's largest HD screen measuring 20l,633.64 square feet. SMI presents 13 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races annually, including three in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup . "He (is) such an innovator. He would think of something and do it," said NASCAR Hall of Fame voter Eddie Wood, co-owner of the Wood Brothers Racing team, in a May 20, 2015 interview with ESPN's Bob Pockrass. NASCAR Chairman and CEO Brian France agrees. "He deserves to be in (the NASCAR Hall of Fame); he's made a huge impact (on the sport) obviously," France said. "He has given the fans an experience that has transformed the sport." Tickets are available for the NASCAR Hall of Fame Induction Dinner and Ceremony (limited quantities available). Individual ticket and ticket packages are available at ticketmaster.com, the NASCAR Hall of Fame Box Office or by calling 800.745.3000.
Promoter, innovator Bruton Smith joins the NHOF

Bruton Smith treated for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
BRISTOL, Tenn. -- Bruton Smith , the founder of Speedway Motorsports Inc. and a 2016 NASCAR Hall of Fame inductee, battled non-Hodgkin's lymphoma earlier this year, according to quotes provided by SMI officials. Smith , 88, is Executive Chairman of SMI. The company owns eight facilities that host 13 of this year's 38 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series events. Smith is on hand this weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway, site of Saturday's Irwin Tools Night Race . It is his first appearance at one of his company's facilities since late May. "The doctors said I probably needed a bit of rest and I got that," Smith said. "And I probably needed it." Smith's son, Marcus, was named Chief Executive Officer for SMI earlier this year, with the elder Smith named Executive Chairman. Marcus Smith said the family discussed publicly addressing his father's illness but noted, "We're private about personal matters." Now that his father's prognosis is positive, Marcus Smith said the family decided to explain his father's recent absence. "I'm really excited about this weekend because Bristol was a goal. … The time was such that it was a good goal to try to hit to be healthy and strong," Marcus Smith said. The most recent reports concerning his father's health "have been really good," Smith said. "He's progressed beyond expectations they all had and we're very thankful about that … and they have given a really good prognosis on his health." In May, Bruton Smith was selected as one of five members for induction into the Hall next January. Others tabbed for induction are drivers Jerry Cook, Terry Labonte , Bobby Isaac and Curtis Turner. "I hate to miss any of our races," Bruton Smith said. "I really do. It's kind of heartbreaking really. I like to be there and see what's going on. "I enjoy what I do. I like the automobile business ( Smith's Sonic Automotive is one of the largest automotive retailers in the U.S.). I'm into that. I love the racing business. I want to do more and more and more. … I just like what I do."
Bruton Smith in the Hall, with support of Brian France
Longtime track mogul was voted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame Wednesday The selection of race track mogul Bruton Smith to the seventh class of the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Wednesday came with a groundswell of support among the 57 votes that were cast. One of Smith's most vocal boosters came from what might be considered an unlikely source. Helped by NASCAR chairman and CEO Brian France's stumping, the 88-year-old Smith was Wednesday's top vote-getter, leading the 2016 list of inductees with a 68 percent approval rating in his third year on the ballot. The selection comes four days before the 56th annual running of the Coca-Cola 600 , an endurance race that Smith created as the hallmark event for the track he helped create decades ago -- Charlotte Motor Speedway . Though Smith's contributions to the sport as a tireless promoter and innovator in the realm of track ownership are immeasurable, so is his history of being at loggerheads with NASCAR founder Bill France Sr., and his son and successor, Bill France Jr., over how best to help the sport grow. That same adversarial relationship seems to have skipped a generation, according to 2011 Hall inductee Ned Jarrett, who said he named Smith on his ballot Wednesday. "I already had him in my mind before then, but I think that might've made a difference overall," Jarrett said of Brian France's statement. "I think some people might've been surprised with his support. Bruton and Brian have always gotten along real well, and just I think him showing his support was good." H.A. "Humpy" Wheeler, a longtime Smith associate at the Charlotte track through a period of tremendous growth for the sport, said he was present for many of the former struggles between Smith's Speedway Motorsports, Inc., group and the first family of NASCAR, noting how conversations frequently went with Bill France Jr.: "We conked his head a whole bunch of times, but he was hard-headed enough that he let us have it back." Wheeler said he believed the younger France's push for Smith carried plenty of sway with the voting panel Wednesday, but beyond that, it may have also smoothed over any lingering hard feelings between the two factions. "Brian has never been a confrontationalist -- never -- like his dad was and like his grandfather was," Wheeler said. "He's live and let live, and let's move on and get this thing going like we're supposed to be, et cetera. It looks like he's got a pretty good way of doing things because a lot of things he's done have worked … "I think we found out today that one of the great things about this business is you can bury the hatchet and everything's fine. And the hatchets were flying so much 20 years ago, and you were wondering, when am I gonna get one right in the skull? I used to wonder and think I'm going to put a helmet on, but you've just got to learn to live and let live and bury that hatchet." Though the relationship between Smith and the Frances was at times antagonistic, the net result was to take the sport to new levels. Smith introduced luxury suites, condominiums and other modern features that were soon incorporated into speedways nationwide, and the expansion of the sport to new markets was a mutual goal for both the Frances and SMI. Friendly or not, the competition was healthy, and many innovations sprang from its intensity. "He was, I think, a big challenge to NASCAR and the France family along the way," Jarrett said, "and I think that's one of the best things that could happen to the sport because he made them better and make them do things better. It was good that they had that rivalry going on." Jarrett said his respect for Smith stemmed from a long-ago victory at a half-mile dirt track Smith had promoted in the Charlotte area. When Jarrett went to the pay window, he said that Smith was there to help explain that he could not pay out the purse. Since the attendance that night was more than adequate, Jarrett said he asked for reasons why, only to be told that the IRS had seized that night's gate to offset Smith's early financial struggles. Jarrett said Smith wrote him a check for his Friday night winnings -- $150, he recalled -- but was told there was no guarantee that it would clear Monday morning. It didn't, Jarrett said, but Smith vowed that he would make the situation right. Jarrett said he stuck to his word, an unusual circumstance in the sport's earliest days, when crooked promoters often skipped town with that night's proceeds. "Then the rest is history as far as all the other speedways and things," Jarrett said. "I mean, he has made major, major contributions to this sport." With contributions and recognition for seven decades in the sport come the setting-aside of any long-ago grudges. In a statement released Wednesday evening by the speedway that he bet the farm on back in 1960, Smith thanked not only the voting committee, but also NASCAR's fans -- the lifeblood of any track owner. Though he might not have known the behind-the-scenes process that potentially helped spur his induction, Smith could also give a tip of the cap to NASCAR's chairman, who opted not to let bygones cloud the panel's voting judgment. "Rivalries are what makes the sport," Wheeler said. "But sometimes, you've got to put the peanut butter back in the jar and put the lid on it."

BUY TICKETS: See the races at Bristol Next weekend's Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway (April 24, 1 p.m. ET, FOX, PRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio) marks the 25-year sponsorship anniversary between the grocery chain and the track. Yes, 25 years. The Silver Anniversary is a testament, of course, to a perfect pairing of brands that both receive great value from their partnership. Even now, the Food City sponsorship of Bristol Motor Speedway's spring Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series event is as strong as ever. It is the second-longest race entitlement in NASCAR, trailing only the Coca-Cola sponsorship of the 600-mile May race at Charlotte. Initially, it wasn't a long-term deal between the two, but after the 1992 Food City 500, officials were ready to return as soon as the next season. "We signed the (initial) agreement and we had a great first race," Steve Smith , Food City President and CEO, previously told NASCAR.com. "Alan Kulwicki actually won our first race in 1992; I remember that well. We were off and running." Smith said his company, founded by his father, Jack, became involved at the right time in the sport, when the fan base was on the upswing, TV coverage was gaining traction and sponsorship dollars were flowing. "What happened with Bristol was really indicative of what was happening with NASCAR -- it was just growing and growing," he said. "Five years later, Bruton ( Smith , Speedway Motorsports Inc., founder) bought the track and things just really started to escalate here with the amenities and the things that they did for the race fans. ... Folks love coming here, they love the racing environment, and they love, I think, the southern hospitality. "We try, as a sponsor, to do a lot of things to get them in here a little bit early, whether it's Food City Race Night or other events to really make it a full week of fun for the race fan." RELATED: Learn more about the track In addition to the Monster Energy Series sponsorship, the company also sponsors the August NASCAR XFINITY Series event at Bristol. While there have been times that spending money on race entitlement rights might have been questionable, Smith said, "I don't think there's ever been a time when we really thought about dropping the race." The return for Food City, he said, comes in many forms. No. 1 is name recognition. "We're a relatively small regional company," Smith said. "But it's a sense of pride for our associates, our customers who know we sponsor racing. NASCAR fans are very loyal, they're loyal to the brands that are involved whether it's Food City or other consumer products sponsors. We think it helps us sell more products and bring more people in to our stores." In February 2014, Food City and BMS officials announced a five-year extension for the naming rights of the track's spring race. So the relationship will continue through 2019 -- at least. "At the end of the day, it's hard to put a financial statement together that proves that it's a great spend, but we've been doing good ever since we been sponsoring racing so we don't want to stop there," Smith said. -- Kenny Bruce contributed to this article </p>

How many still in line at fundamentals?
UPDATE: This post has been updated to include the total numbers from Tarpon Springs Fundamental Elementary, which were left out of the spread sheet. The grade-by-grade numbers for that school are included in the comments below.
Sunday's St. Petersburg Times story about Pinellas school board candidates and fundamental schools noted that many families ended up on waiting lists this year, but we didn't have the numbers to show you how many are still there. We still don't - but we have the next best thing.
This spread sheet from the district shows, as of July 29, how many families are still in line for each grade at each fundamental school. Keep in mind that many families are on more than one wait list. That 4,370 total is the number of applications in limbo, NOT the number of families in limbo.
Families put in a total of 8,450 applications this year.
This post from February notes how many applied for the kindergarten and sixth-grade slots. It's not all the data we'd like to see, but it at least gives you some idea how much the lists have been whittled.

Grateful Dead
Hi Russ,we haven't got together for months but everyone is still in circulation,must get together after the Melb Cup!
Yep, that's right....I'm a trueblue Deadhead stuck in the E.U. for work....as soon as my contract expires, I'm coming back to OZ where the Dead are respected and appreciated unlike here in the ruddy EU:):):)!!!
in Australia, or OZ?
Melbourne Deadheads, what's up? I am now working in Melbourne, wondering if the get togethers are still happening?
it appears that he has died in a car crash in Australia, where he has lived for many years.
Hey Now...Just a reminder that www.deadvids.com is hosting another My First Grateful Dead Show this Wednesday evening from 9:00-11:30pm/ET. This will be our first in the series to showcase one of our "international" Deadheads so it's gonna be a really special show.
Please do join us in the Deadvids chat room (http://deadvids.com/dv) to participate in the interview. We're bound to cover just a little more ground! Peace...
Count me in for another Melb Deadhead. Never saw them live, got into the GD round 91 when I was in year 8. Bought the Grateful Dead Movie for $10 in a video store which used to be Bourke St. Had a few good GD conversations withe the guys from Greville and also Basement Discs.
Bumped into another deadhead at Flaming Lips last year. He was wearing a Steal your face and I had the Stealie converse on. My friend leads a alt country band called Low Rent, which has a bit of Dead influence, some Grisman-esk mandolin in a few songs too. I've been trying to get him to cover Mississippi Half-Step live.
I wanted to let you all know that we are hosting a special show on Deadvids.com on Wednesday, November 17th, 2010, from 9:00-11:30pm/ET called My First Grateful Dead Show: International Edition.
Each month, Deadvids.com hosts a new series called My First Grateful Dead Show. I host the show and each month a member guest hosts with me and we listen to their very first Grateful Dead show that they attended, and I interview them with 20 questions. During the interview, others that are present can ask additional questions of the guest host. We've been doing this show since late July 2010, and it's been catching on as people get to understand what it's about. We've found it really interesting and inspiring to hear each person's unique journey into this community and how it has impacted their lives.
So far, it's always been an American/US-based deadhead that is my guest host, but next month we will have our first "international" guest host - a deadhead from overseas. I can't tell you who, or what show (we try to keep those under wraps until show time), but I would like to invite all of you, US-based and those living outside the US, to please join us! FYI, our guest host will have to be up into the wee hours of their morning to do this show, so perhaps you guys overseas can make a party of it and get together and listen/participate in the discussion that evening, make an all-nighter of it...
If you cannot make it, we post an archive on Deadvids.com of all the past shows so folks can see whose show it was and the link to archive.org for that show.
You are all most welcome! Please stop by the Deadvids chat room to fully participate in the interview discussion. For more information, please check out info on the next show here:
And info on past show archives here:
Hope to see you all on November 17th! Tell your friends... ;)

Vimy ( or ; ) is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of France.
Vimy is a farming town, situated some north of Arras, at the junction of the D51 and the N17 roads. It is situated on the crest of Vimy Ridge, a prominent feature overlooking the Artois region.
The town was first mentioned in 1183 as Viniarcum and was the scene of much fighting during the fourteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries among the French, English, Dutch and Spanish forces.
The ridge was the scene of fierce fighting in the First World War. Seized by the Germans in 1914, it was the subject of a French assault in 1915. In 1917 the Battle of Vimy Ridge took place southeast of Vimy and was an important battle of the First World War for Canadian military history. The town was practically destroyed during the fighting in the area.

Electronics retailer Harvey Norman has announced a nearly 40 per cent drop in annual pre-tax profits, as it struggles with the glut of stock from failed rivals flooding the market.
Pre-tax profits at the company sank 39.2 per cent to $227.4 million from $373.9 million the year before. After-tax profits plunged 31.6 per cent to $172.4 million from $252.2 million over the year.
Shares in the company lost half a per cent, or 1 cent, to $2.09 on the news.
Calling the year "very disappointing'', Harvey Norman chairman Gerry Harvey said retail categories, "specifically the television and some technology categories, have been under enormous pressure with price and margin deflation.''
Competition from offshore electronics retailers has decimated margins at local retailers such as WOW Sight and Sound and Dick Smith, which had relied on geographical isolation to protect their business in earlier years.
At the same time, consumers have cut back on purchases of goods in light of a renewed focus on paying down debt.
''The liquidation of WOW Sight and Sound, the closure of numerous Retravision stores and the restructure of the Dick Smith brand created a glut of product being sold at never before seen prices," said Mr Harvey.
Weak housing's impact
The weak numbers were expected given that Harvey Norman had flagged the sales figures earlier this month said Bell Direct equities analyst Julia Lee.
"Nonetheless, it has been a very difficult environment for Harvey Norman because we've seen a lot of electrical retailers trying to get rid of stock," she said. "(Also) the weakness in the housing market has an impact in terms of white good sales and household products.
"The two key challenges are the migration of sales to the internet and the weakness in the housing numbers," said Ms Lee.
City Index chief market analyst Peter Esho said net assets were up 1.9 per cent ''driven mainly by the underlying property book" worth $2.12 billion.
''The company's debt is within reasonable levels and there is still a decent dividend on the table which limits the downside in shares,'' he said.
"There are also some optimistic comments around the outlook in its European businesses, but the big question marks over competitiveness in Australia remain and have not been answered by the omni-channel tag lines."
Looking online
The company said its integrated online market strategy would leave it with ''a competitive advantage and capability to take advantage of any upswing in consumer confidence.''
Nonetheless, the company's online operations in Australia and New Zealand would deliver "incremental revenue" in the year ahead.
"We continue to implement our merchandising and supply chain improvements program which will deliver improved information from both our suppliers and customers," the company said, with the aim of "seamless" customer experience across all channels.

Until recently, silver reminded me too much of my days as a Long Island teen, riding the "lurr" (aka the Long Island Railroad) into the city to go buy cheap jewelry on St. Marks Place. In those days, virtually every finger on my hand had its own silver ring, some with snaky, goth shapes or scary eyeball beads... Did you guys go through a phase like this too?
After awhile, I got sick of that look—and St. Marks Place. Sex and the City came along and I followed Carrie and invested in a gold necklace with my initial "J" on it. Okay, that was slightly embarrassing. But gold jewelry just seemed much more grown-up.
Everything got thrown off, though, when I got engaged. Fi chose a solitaire diamond on a platinum band. Platinum, as in the anti-gold. But I loved it. Soon I found myself adding other silver pieces. Now I usually wear a mix of both, which has been increasingly trendy anyway.
What about you: Do you mix up your bling? Or do you do strictly silver or strictly gold?

Comments about Cardone Hydraulic Power Rack and Pinion {Complete} - Domestic:
Takes several hours to remove,then several hours to install. take your time, take pictures as you remove parts, so you can install in reverse order. keep all parts and tools clean will make it easier to install. parts was well rebuilt, had lot of check marks on fittings and pipes so you know they have been checked. count the turns on rod-ends so you can be sure to put back them same to keep it close before getting lined back up. use lots of safety when you jack up car. use several jack stands and wood blocks. use real good jack to lower sub-frame about 3 inches to get access to sway bar bolts. be sure to fluse all old old out of pump and hoses.

This will be the third rack and pinion in so many years. I installed the last one in late November, I put in a new PS pump as well as new hoses. I boiled the reservoir spotless and let it dry over night I then ran air through the reservoir till there was absolutely no water in it anywhere. I then ran the fluid through a filter for a half hour just looping from one end of the pump to the other before finally connecting the new lines to the new rack and pinion. I then followed the instructions on the Cardone site as well as the directions that came with the unit as to purging the air from the new system. Yet here it is three months after my last PS replacement and I have to do it all over again!!! Can't anyone make decent parts anymore? The last battery and two different alternators I bought from Advance were junk right out of the box as well and took several trips back to the store to get functioning ones.

A:I recommend purchasing a Haynes repair manual specifically for your vehicle. This should be able to assist you further into detail on how to repair or replace specific parts.
Q:those this part include all the nuts and bolts?
2 answers
A:No this does not include nuts and bolts.
A:No this does not include nuts and bolts.
Q:does this product include the wireing harness
1 answer
A:No this does not include a wiring harness.
Q:how difficult is this to change
1 answer
A:On the few vehicles that I have replaced these on, it really was not that hard. They required a hammer, and a socket and ratchet set. You just need to remove the few bolts holding it to the car, remove the tie rod ends from the steering knuckles, and then re-install everything. I highly recommend consulting a mechanic who can look at your car first just to make sure there is not anything special about your car and once the repairs are made get a four wheel alignment just to make sure nothing was thrown off in measurements.

Have Boat Questions? Ask a Boat Repair Expert.
Hello, welcome to JustAnswer.
Replace the electric fuel pump.
Every time you turned the key you heard the pump motor spinning, that doesn't mean fuel was pumping. Most of the time, these electric fuel pumps never stop sounding like they are functioning, they spin, but the ability to create pressure is lost. Without pressure, they are useless in your boat.
They do get warm when in use. Then they loose pressure. It cools and works again until it gets heated up again. And each time, the length of time it works lessens.
You can see how this works with the use of a fuel pressure gauge hooked to the fuel rail schader valve. run the motor and watch the gauge it will likely remain steady as a rock, then suddenly drop in pressure. It only takes a little drop to decrease top end or under load performance (noticed by you as a lower engine rpm) as it gets worse the engine will bog down when trying to accellerate, start to idle bad and then not re start, until you get no starting at all. But the bump still spins away, it just isn't doing anything.

As you learn in "Critical Reading Practices," an effective argument contains a thesis, supporting claims, and evidence to support those claims. The thesis is the writer's central argument, or claim, and the supporting claims reinforce the validity of the thesis. When reading another writer's argument, it is important to be able to distinguish between main points and sub-claims; being able to recognize the difference between the two will prove incredibly useful when composing your own thesis-driven essays.

Did you know?
Works by the acclaimed artist Thomas Baines appear in the William Fehr collection at the Castle of Good Hope.
The oldest surviving colonial building in South Africa is the Castle of Good Hope, built by the Dutch East India Company as a replenishment station for their ships journeying from Europe to the East on trading expeditions.
Building commenced in 1666, and a decade later the Castle was the centre of all life at the Cape. It was constructed as a pentagonal fortress with five bastions named after the main titles of Willem, the Prince of Orange, namely Leerdam, Buuren, Catzenellenbogen, Nassau, and Oranje.
During the British occupation of the Cape, there was little Colonial Office sentiment for this historic landmark. At one stage, so the legend goes, it was offered up for sale. The asking price? A mere 83 pounds and 34 pence. Even with appreciation that would be a paltry sum today.
The pastel-painted buildings constructed of stone are now home to the Castle Military Museum and the William Fehr Collection. The workshops the building once housed, the living quarters, the cellars and the dungeons can be toured, as well as the Kat Balcony, from which important announcements were made to an audience of soldiers, burghers (residents) and slaves.
The Fehr collection, dating from the 17th to 19th century, features art, antique Cape furniture, metal objects, ceramics and glassware collected by a Cape businessman between 1892 and 1968.
Guided tours of the Castle are conducted from Monday to Saturday at 11am, 12 noon and 2pm, while each weekday at 10am and 12pm a Key Ceremony is performed, replicating the ceremonial unlocking of the Castle in olden times. It is followed by the firing of the signal cannon. Horse-and-carriage rides of an hour are conducted daily at 10.30am, 12.45pm and 2.45pm, and can also be arranged at sunset. Meals can be enjoyed at De Goewerneur Restaurant.
The distinctive Castle of Good Hope Fort maintains its long association with the military, being the headquarters of the army in the Western Cape. Each November it hosts a popular Military Tattoo, offering family entertainment.
Another novel adventure that starts at the Castle is a tour of the underground tunnels that once channelled the canals and rivers that brought fresh water to the city. These tours last between one and three hours and take you on a fascinating tour of the past.

"Better is one day in Your courts than thousands elsewhere." (Psalm 84:10)
I want to talk today about how to get the most out of your Bible reading. And the simplist and most direct way to put it is to invite you into your Bible as though you are taking a slow walk in a beautiful park — one filled with God's presence.
King David wrote, "One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple" (Psa 27:4).
It is an indisputable fact that one cannot seek the Lord, and at the same time be in a hurry. Too often it is the manufactured pace of our lives that detours us from God's presence, and derails us into life's many pitfalls. And there it is we find ourselves scurrying about for a "word from God" – desperately flipping the pages in hope of finding some verse that will pop off the page and get us through the day.
Seriously? Is this the best we can do? Why settle for crying out to God from the pits, when you have an open invitation to sit and talk with Him in His courts?
The key to entering His House is to walk slowly, listen carefully, watch attentively, and respond thoughtfully. Many of us rush right past a word from the Lord. Our eyes having been captured by the hazy glow of a distant sparkle, we unwittingly race over the golden nuggets that are strewn all about our pathway; leaving true riches on the road while we chase after all that glitters.
The importance of spending much time with something of great value and beauty is illustrated by a quote from the National Geographic magazine about Carl Sharsmith, an 81 year old guide in Yosemite National Park.
"Carl was back at his tent quarters after a long afternoon with tourists. His nose was flaked white and red with sunburn; his eyes were watery, partly from age but also from hearing again an old question after a half-century of summers in California's Yosemite National Park. A lady tourist had hit him with a question where it hurt: "I've only got an hour to spend at Yosemite," she declared. "What should I do? Where should I go?"
The old naturalist-interpreter-ranger finally found voice to reply. "Ah, lady, only an hour." He repeated it slowly. "I suppose that if I had only an hour to spend at Yosemite, I'd just walk over there by the river and sit down and cry."
A whole lifetime is not long enough to appreciate fully the beauty and learning and value of the Bible. That's why we must take time to study its truths and make them real in our lives.
My friend, Buddy Owens, put it best – "When you open the Bible do so determined to read for depth, not distance." Don't tell yourself you must read this chapter before you rush out the door. Rather, start reading slowly and thoughtfully, looking and listening for that moment when the Spirit of God whispers to your heart and stops you in your tracks. Perhaps it may happen only three verses into your reading – but there, at that intersection, you have met the Lord.
And that is enough.

This large, stunning, beachfront, 3 story home sleeps up to 18 people, with 7 bedrooms and 6 baths. This is a very special oceanfront retreat by the sea on the Central Oregon Coast. Come relax, reflect and rejuvenate here, where a gorgeous sandy beach is literally just steps out the back door. Fall asleep floating on feathers to the sound of the waves rolling in as they caress the shore and gently lull you into tranquility. All of the bedrooms are designed with simple elegance while providing the utmost in comfort and spacious convenience. Four of the main bedrooms feature their own special deep Jacuzzi baths and private access directly to the Pacific Ocean!
The Sea Spirit House boasts a game room with ping pong, a pool table, and other games, a large laundry room, and a very large, well-appointed kitchen. There is a large ocean-viewing dining area that seats everyone at three tables! This is a spectacularly located home that is perfect for family reunions, group getaways, and retreats. You will live well, enjoy the home's shared spaces, and still have plenty of room and privacy so that it won't feel crowded, even when rented by groups of up to 18. The beautiful sunrises and sunsets permeate this open and bright home, and you'll enjoy the dramatic Pacific ocean from inside the home, and from the miles of sandy beach that stretch out in front of the Sea Spirit.
Enjoy some time together while you experience and enjoy natural wonder of where the ocean meets land. At the Sea Spirit, each moment can be a special memory for you to enjoy and treasure.
Sleeps up to 18 in 7 Bedrooms, 6 baths. 4 King beds, 2 Queen beds, 2 Full beds and a Queen Aero Bed.
Standard: 2 night minimum; Summer & Holidays: 3-4 night minimum.
I rented the Sea Spirit for my husband's 50th birthday. We went with our entire family. 18 in all. We stayed 3 nights and our stay was just perfect just not long enough. The home is well laid out for large groups and groups with children. The game room was a hit with the kids. We had 3 toddlers so the stairs made me a bit nervous but we made blockades to keep the babies away. If you take small children I would recommend taking a couple extra baby gates as well as a high chair as there are none there. Luckily we did bring our own. The beach is literally right out the back door. Make sure to bring extra bag chairs and sand toys for the kids. The kitchen is great and the dining room fit all of us. It always seems that when I stay away from home I do not sleep well. Although the beds are extremely comfy and I think I actually slept better. We took one day and went to the aquarium in Newport and the kids loved it. If you have time, do that for sure. If you stay at the Sea Spirit you won't be disappointed.
Ten of us stayed at Sea Spirit in late February, celebrating our mom's 83rd birthday. This house suited our group very well and it is nicer and more spacious in person than the photos depict. It was also one of the cleaner homes I've rented and the beds are very comfortable. The highlights for our group were the four master, ocean front suites, the wonderfully large commercial kitchen and of course the view and access to this fantastic stretch of beach. We were treated to sunny weather and were running and walking on the beach at least once a day. Those who weren't up to venturing out soaked up the views from the dining area. We did not venture out much, because, well...why leave?! It was a wonderful retreat. Just note that there are a lot of stairs in this home - be sure to check out the floor plan. The top floor serves as the living area with the ocean view, so make sure that is doable for your group. Everyone in our group loved this home and had a terrific time. It was really a treat to stay here and I would love to return.

Its a powerfull half-blood farmer. For now I have 13 wins and 3 losses, I will complete the table with all half-blood being beaten with me.
With the Hourglass you got a lots of extra draws. Also increase the speed of queantun generated drawing pillars.
31 cards are between pillars and pendulums because this deck needs a huge amount of quantum for the pharaoh, eternity, hourglas and scarb activated habilities
The huge aomunt of quanta is all used in: playing cards, activated abilities of pharaoh and electrum hourlass, eternity and scarbs.
Offensively, we devour opposite creatures with scarab generate for the pharaoh.
Deffensively, with shards (both class of shards are important) the turtle shield and eternity(this can low de oponent deck and neutralize buffered or heavy creatures.
In conclusión this deck have speed becaouse of hourglass, offensive with the pharaoh scarab generating power and defensive with the shards, shield and eternity.
This deck also generates and huge amount of quantum that is not waste and it don´t overrun.
It is weak against permanent control decks and extremely fire agressive decks.

Nottinghamshire Director of Cricket Mick Newell will include James Taylor in the team to face Somerset in the LV= County Championship from Friday if he isn't selected in the England team to face Australia in the third Investec Ashes Test.
Taylor has been away from his Nottinghamshire teammates preparing for the pivotal fixture for the past week and will surrender his place to fit-again Riki Wessels if he is called on by his country.
Nottinghamshire have produced exceptional form in limited overs cricket this season but have been patchy with the red ball, a situation that Newell is keen to address.
"There have been three career-best batting performances this season but we have lacked a bit of consistency and the absolute priority has to be to take 20 wickets in a match." Mick Newell
"We've had some reflection on where things have slipped in the championship and it comes down to every member of the squad needing to pull together," said Newell.
"There are lots of ideas coming from within the squad as to the best method for us to improve but the simple fact is that we need to win more matches.
"There have been three career-best batting performances this season but we have lacked a bit of consistency and the absolute priority has to be to take 20 wickets in a match.
"Losing Andre Adams to injury early in the season hasn't helped because he's been our best bowler in recent years but we need others to step up and take wickets."
Adams is included in a 14-man squad that also features Graeme White hinting at a possible change to the balance of the side if two spinners are selected.
"Graeme's selection will come down to conditions but, aside from Harry Gurney who is playing regularly in all formats, we have a fresh bowling unit with Ajmal Shahzad, Luke Fletcher and Andre Adams having time to recover recently," said Newell.
"We've allowed ourselves to another mid-season lull in the championship and we need to recover from that and win matches."
The match begins at 11am on Friday at Taunton.
Nottinghamshire team to face Somerset (from): Alex Hales, Steven Mullaney, Michael Lumb, Riki Wessels, Samit Patel, David Hussey, Chris Read, Ajmal Shahzad, Graeme White, Luke Fletcher, Andre Adams, Harry Gurney, Jake Ball, James Taylor

Sometimes silly is good. Some silly is essential but I can do serious too. Things like why you should be re-negotiating your mortgage deal at least every 2 or 3 years, the difference between an asset and a liability and nappy changing. I like cooking. Eating is just as good. Installing the oven, the kitchen, plastering the ceiling, putting the floor in, and slating the roof over the lot too if need be. Can't say I like painting & decorating much though.
Here to meet somebody special rather than a penpal. I'm not one for writing endless long emails, so please don't write unless you're actually one for meeting up if things head that way. A couple of things that will save your time and mine; I'm not going to date somebody over the age of about 40 as I seek a family with the right person. And you must not smoke.
I get on best with people who are straight to the point and speak their mind. And don't think I'm unapproachable simply because I write the following.
How to Get along with me
Stand up for yourself... and me.
Be confident, strong, and direct.
Don't gossip about me or betray my trust.
Be vulnerable and share your feelings, for I will take them seriously.
See and acknowledge my tender, vulnerable side.
Acknowledge the contributions I make, but don't flatter me.
I sometimes I speak in an assertive way, don't automatically assume it's a personal attack.
I'm happy to take charge and lead when I know my team.
I'm courageous, straightforward, and honest.
I try to get all the enjoyment I can out of life.
I love to support, empower, and protect those close to me.
I have a sense of duty.
I have time for just causes and dislike injustice.
I believe in putting work into something worthwhile and laying a foundation.
What's hard about being me.
Sometimes when under pressure my straight up nature pushes people away when I don't intend to.
I can be a little restless and impatient with others' incompetence.
I don't like sticking my neck out for people and receiving no appreciation for it.
I don't easily forget injuries or injustices.
Sometimes I put too much pressure on myself.
NOTE: For some bizarre reason I've gained an 'interests' section with some interests I've never quoted and it's the only section I can't edit. Where did 'Dominoes' come from? Answers on a postcard please.
And I've also had it pointed out to me that I've quoted having a Masters degree. I haven't, but it's just some way of gauging some equivalent level of education for the search.
Fixing things.
Making people laugh.
Going in through the out door.
I don't really watch telly. I'm saving that for my incontinent years, the period of old age that probably follows the cheating at dominoes and dueling-with-sticks in the charity shop phase. In the mean time I'm doing my best to avoid the infamous red bus. I'm much more likely to be round the back of the telly than the front. Rare watchings of the one-eyed god could be useful though to explain some of what appeals to my sense of humour. Father Ted, Dave Allen, Mighty Boosh, Open All Hours have been past favourites. If it's radio then often Radio 4 and sometimes Radio 2.
I'm not a fussy eater and will eat most things providing it's not amazingly hot. I much prefer home cooked to stuff to take aways. If you like chinese have you tried anything out of Gok Wan's chinese cookery book? It's very hard to eat a takeaway after that! I enjoy cooking and baking when I have the time. Anything from scones to Baked Alaska. I like a glass of wine every now and then, and have in the past made country wines. Favourites are full-bodied reds and dessert whites. I don't believe in eating low fat this that and the other, I believe in eating unprocessed foods. Something you know what's in it.

If you're traveling through South Carolina or Georgia this Thanksgiving weekend, expect to see the South Carolina Highway Patrol and the Georgia State Patrol out in full force.
Troopers have been lining the roads and operating DUI checkpoints since Wednesday, Lance Cpl. Judd Jones, of the South Carolina Highway Patrol, said, and they will continue to crack down on seat belt and speeding violations through Sunday evening.
"We're trying to be proactive in our enforcement," he said. "Our goal is to have zero fatalities on our roadways."
Jones couldn't provide a number for the weekend so far, but said there have been 684 fatalities across the state in 2013, compared to 776 in 2012.
That number could continue to decline as seat belt usage rises, Jones said.
"Our seat belt usage has continued to increase around the state," he said. "That's the one thing that's helping fatalities stay down."
In Georgia, there have been seven traffic fatalities since Wednesday evening, according to the Georgia Department of Public Safety Web site. Last year, state troopers reported 11 fatalities during the Thanksgiving holiday period.
The highest number of traffic deaths ever recorded for the holiday period was 43 in 1969, according to a statement from the state's public safety department. The low mark was set in 1949, when there were just four fatalities statewide.
Georgia State Patrol troopers will keep an eye out for impaired drivers this weekend. During last year's holiday period, state troopers arrested 324 for DUI, according to the statement.
"Enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday, but also know that if you drive impaired, you will go to jail and your vehicle will be impounded," said Colonel Mark McDonough, the commissioner of the Georgia Department of Public Safety, on Monday.
The Georgia State Patrol has reported more than 200 crashes so far this Thanksgiving holiday, resulting in more than 119 injuries.
In South Carolina, the highway patrol locks down on roadways for the duration of the week.
Jones said the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and the following weekend see more drivers on the road who are entering and leaving the state.
South Carolina Highway Patrol's Troop 7 pays special attention to I-20 and Atomic Road during the holiday season, Jones said, but troopers also analyze traffic statistics in the weeks leading up to major holidays in order to address other problem areas.
Targeted areas should expect see DUI checkpoints and an increase in trooper presence to influence good driving behavior.
"We can't do it by ourselves," Jones said. "We ask anyone who sees an impaired driver to give us a call. We want to keep the roadways safe."

Little Ned is also determined to roll onto his front and try to crawl at four months we think that he's very advanced. I got the shock of my life when I looked over and saw him about 2 metres away from his baby gym the other day, it turned out that Fifi and Boy had moved him to trick me. Wish me luck for the next eighteen years, they are already ganging up on me….
