This 4L80E came to us for an inspection and general check over as it was a very low mileage unit and really didn't need much attention.
We stripped and cleaned it inside and out before slipping it all back together requiring a minimum of new parts.
We then gave it a coat of engine paint and 2K lacquer to match the Chevrolet 400ci V8 engine.
Mark Stacey at Power & Performance in Honningham near Norwich fitted the transmission and set up the EZ TCU stand alone computer to make the electronics work, giving the owner the ability to change the transmission settings at the touch of a button.

As we approach the second holiday season of the pandemic, the landscape is much different from last year. In 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention asked Americans to stay home for the holidays as we awaited the arrival of vaccines. As of Dec. 8, nearly 200 million Americans were fully vaccinated, and kids as young as 5 were beginning to join those ranks.
Travel has been roaring back to life, with the coming weeks expected to bring full flights, busy airports and packed roads. But winter, when respiratory viruses tend to rise, brings a renewed threat as cases, deaths, and hospitalizations are all rising and the specter of the new omicron variant looms.
[Send us your holiday travel questions for our live chat on Nov. 11 ]
Holiday travelers this year should not be complacent. But they have more tools this year, including vaccinations, booster shots, rapid home tests and nearly two years of experience dealing with the virus. This guide, with expert advice, should be in that toolbox. Tell us your travel plans, and we'll help you navigate the season as safely as possible.
Are you vaccinated?
The CDC said in April that those who are fully vaccinated may travel once again. That came with new warnings amid the delta surge this summer, but health experts are optimistic about holiday travel if you're vaccinated.
"I think both the combination of boosters and most children being able to have a vaccination by December certainly does make it safer," said Joseph Khabbaza, a critical-care medicine specialist at Cleveland Clinic.
[What 5 health experts say about holiday travel this year]
But not all vaccinated travelers are equal. Jonathan Baktari, a pulmonary and critical care expert and CEO of e7 Health, recommended that anyone at high risk for severe coronavirus, such as elderly or immunocompromised travelers, should avoid holiday travel this year unless they can get their vaccine booster ahead of their trip.
Long story short, don't travel. The CDC says to delay travel until you are fully vaccinated. According to the CDC report, unvaccinated people are 10 times more likely to be hospitalized from a coronavirus infection and 11 times more likely to die of covid-19 than vaccinated people.
"If you're unvaccinated, my good faith advice is please stay at home for everyone's sake," said Andrew Noymer, an associate professor of population health and disease prevention at University of California at Irvine.
Are you eligible for a booster shot?
I don't know if I'm eligible
All fully vaccinated Americans 18 and older are eligible to get a booster if enough time has passed since their first shots. The CDC recommends all adults get the additional shot, saying people who received doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccinations should wait six months after completing their initial injections, and people who received Johnson & Johnson's Janssen vaccine should wait two months.
It is a good idea to get that shot regardless of your travel plans, said David Freedman, professor emeritus of infectious diseases at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. "Travel indicates risk, so indicated people should get" the booster, he said in an email.
If you haven't been singled out as needing a booster by public health authorities, carry on with your fully vaccinated self. David Freedman, professor emeritus of infectious diseases at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, says immunity is holding up "very well" against severe disease, according to data in the United States.
This questionnaire will help you figure out if you're eligible.
What is the vaccination status of people you're visiting?
At least some unvaccinated
You're off to a great start. According to Joseph Khabbaza, a critical-care medicine specialist at Cleveland Clinic, if you and the social circle you're visiting is fully immunized, it's "highly unlikely for any meaningful spread [of coronavirus] to occur within groups of vaccinated people," he said. The first in-depth laboratory study of the omicron variant showed people had been vaccinated with Pfizer-BioNTech shots could suffer breakthrough infections, but the inoculations did provide some protection. Lab research so far supports the need for boosters.
Unless you're immunocompromised, were exposed to the virus or someone in your household is at risk for severe infection, vaccinated people don't need to mask indoors unless in an area of high transmission, per CDC guidance, although some local restrictions require it. Of course, regardless of official guidance, you can mask inside if it makes you feel comfortable.
Keri Althoff, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, said the vaccination status of the people you're visiting should factor into your travel planning. "Even one unvaccinated person can bring in the risk of covid and the transmission of covid," she said. "Having half of your group unvaccinated, that's an increased level of risk."
If there will be unvaccinated people at your holiday celebrations, the CDC recommends wearing a mask indoors while in close contact. Althoff also encourages making modifications, like spending time outdoors together or maintaining social distance.
"The fact of the matter is that in order to have a holiday season that looks a little bit more like 2019 and not 2020 is really to get yourself vaccinated and to encourage the loved ones that you want to go see to do the same," Althoff said.
Who are you traveling with?
Immunocompromised people
We are all healthy adults
If they're eligible, children should be vaccinated against covid-19 before traveling. The Food and Drug Administration authorized the Pfizer vaccine for children 5 and older in late October, and kids started getting vaccinated in early November after the CDC signed off. But some kids are still too young, meaning that extra precautions are in order. Also, don't forget that flu season is happening. Doctors are warning of a possible "twindemic," so make sure children get their flu shot as well.
[Should you travel with kids during the pandemic? Consider these 6 trip scenarios.]
The CDC ranks types of travel for families with unvaccinated kids by describing what is safer, less safe and what people should avoid.
If plans call for gathering with other households, getting together outside is better — even if everyone is vaccinated.
Leana Wen, an emergency physician and public health professor at George Washington University, told The Washington Post earlier this year that if an outdoor gathering is not possible, everyone in the group should take extra precautions for three to five days in advance, including wearing a mask in public and not gathering indoors with unvaccinated people. Before the group get-together, everyone should take a coronavirus test. Unvaccinated adults should only be around young kids outdoors.
If flying, make sure kids are prepared to wear a mask for long periods of time. Practice with them in advance and provide activities on the plane to keep their hands busy, such as coloring, using stickers or screen time. It's best not to remove the mask to eat or drink, but if necessary, do so briefly when everyone else is masked.
Anyone who is immunocompromised or otherwise at high risk of severe disease from the coronavirus should get a third shot or booster before traveling. The CDC says people in this group should talk to their health-care providers.
The public health agency says that if they do travel, immunocompromised people should take the precautions that are recommended for unvaccinated people, regardless of their vaccination status.
That includes wearing a well-fitting mask, keeping a distance of six feet from people outside their household, washing their hands and avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces.
Make sure you are fully vaccinated before traveling; get the booster shot if you're eligible.
Remember that masks are required on planes, buses, trains and other forms of public transportation, and indoors at transportation centers. The CDC says that even people who are fully vaccinated should mask up indoors in areas with substantial or high transmission.
Are you flying or driving?
If you haven't booked tickets yet, put that on the top of your to-do list. Travel experts say fares for the holidays are expected to be more expensive than last year, and the sooner locked in the better. Look for direct flights to avoid the covid-19 risks associated with layovers, such as getting on and off the plane more than once and crowding at the gate multiple times.
[Flying during the pandemic? Don't forget about the risks at the airport.]
Expect a lot of company in the sky. Airline executives have said they expect "tremendous pent-up demand" to lead to full flights. And those fellow travelers will be packed in tight. Unlike last year, when some carriers were keeping middle seats open, passengers will fill every seat.
The federal mask mandate for planes and airports, which didn't even exist in 2020, has been extended through at least March 18, 2022. Some U.S. airlines aren't selling alcoholic beverages to all or most 21-plus passengers while the mandate is in place.
Experts say passengers should avoid eating or drinking on a plane, which would require them to remove their masks, if possible.
And don't forget about the risks at the airport, or while boarding or getting off the plane. Medical experts say travelers should avoid crowds at the gate and at baggage claim — or, better yet, carry a bag on — and only eat at the airport if it's possible to do in an area far apart from other people.
If you're renting a car, don't wait to make reservations. A rental car shortage that has caused long lines, low availability and high prices since early this year is expected to be an issue this holiday season.
Just like any road trip since the beginning of the pandemic, pack protective gear, hand sanitizer and food, and try to minimize interaction during stops.
A long drive might take you through locations with safety measures that are much more strict — or lax — than you're used to, so it's best to know in advance what to expect. AAA produces a map of covid travel restrictions, and the CDC recommends checking for information with the health departments where you're going and along the way. Don't forget your vaccination card, as some cities or businesses may require proof of vaccination to dine or drink indoors.
Not sure if masks are required (or recommended)? The CDC says masks should be worn indoors in public places in areas where transmission is substantial or high. The agency publishes county-level data with that information.
Family or friend's house
Airbnb or rental
The risk of staying with family or friends depends on your vaccination status and theirs. "If you're just staying with family and everyone's up to date on their vaccine, that becomes far safer than just one year ago, where, unfortunately, many people got very ill during last holiday season," said Joseph Khabbaza, a critical-care medicine specialist at Cleveland Clinic.
Unvaccinated travelers should avoid staying with groups of people to reduce coronavirus risks. And remember, the CDC says you shouldn't be traveling or gathering indoors if you're unvaccinated. "If you're unvaccinated, the more people you come into contact with, the more likely you are to catch the disease," said Jonathan Baktari, a pulmonary and critical care expert and CEO of e7 Health. "So if you said 'We're going to stay alone in our own Airbnb,' it's going to be much better than if you're staying in a house for 15 people."
If you're concerned about staying with loved ones for your own health risks or theirs, opt for staying in a hotel or separate accommodation. Since the pandemic began, many hotels have changed their cleaning and service protocols or upgraded air filtration. Travelers should treat shared spaces in hotels as they would other public places and take coronavirus precautions accordingly, such as masking in elevators and busy hotel lobbies.
For anyone with health concerns, getting your own accommodation may be wise, such as a house rental on Airbnb or another rental platform. The less people you come into contact with, the less coronavirus risks you'll encounter this holiday season, said Jonathan Baktari, a pulmonary and critical care expert and CEO of e7 Health. If you're renting a room in a shared place, you may be crossing paths with strangers during your stay. While indoors with others, consider keeping social distance and masking up, especially if you don't know their vaccination status.
Because we know spread of the virus is more of a threat from human interaction than surfaces, Baktari says vaccinated travelers shouldn't go overboard with sanitizing their travel accommodations.
Are you traveling domestically or internationally?
Within the U.S.
Before your holiday trip, make sure you know the local restrictions of the place you're visiting. For example, those traveling to Hawaii must be fully vaccinated or have a negative test result to enter. Those heading to cities such as New York or San Francisco should be prepared to show proof of vaccination to dine indoors at restaurants.
Andrew Noymer, an associate professor of population health and disease prevention at University of California at Irvine said the number one precaution people can take before traveling for the holidays is getting vaccinated (and boosted if you're eligible). The second-best practice is to be masked while on transit.
Additionally, Brian C. Castrucci, the president and CEO of public health charity de Beaumont Foundation, said travelers should find out the coronavirus situation in the place that they're visiting, such as if local hospitals are full. "Should something happen, I want to know there's a bed for me," he said.
If you're going abroad for the holidays, you should check the CDC's travel advisories for countries with high levels of coronavirus transmission and know the requirements for your destination. Some countries, like many in Europe, now require testing in addition to proof of vaccination, or have essentially banned unvaccinated travelers. Other countries only require inoculation proof; some just require a test.
Keri Althoff, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, recommended other considerations beyond advisories and requirements: How is the county's health-care system doing? Where can you get a coronavirus test if you think you're infected or exposed?
[You asked: Where can I find a coronavirus test in a foreign country?]
Before you fly back to the United States, you'll have to take a coronavirus test, regardless of your vaccination status. As of Dec. 6, all travelers must get a test within a day of their return.
If you test positive abroad, you will be denied entry to the United States until you can test negative. You may want to purchase travel insurance ahead of your trip in case you have to stay abroad longer or need medical care.
Are you getting tested for travel?
Since the delta surge this summer and the omicron discovery in November, testing before and after travel has become commonplace again, even for vaccinated travelers. Because of the surge in demand, tests are harder to come by. If you're going to be testing ahead of your holiday travel, don't wait until the last minute to buy or schedule your test.
Unvaccinated people should get a coronavirus test one to three days ahead of their trip, and three to five days after their trip, according to CDC guidance.
[Your vacation is around the corner. But first: time to scramble for a coronavirus test.]
Vaccinated people who have no symptoms of illness can skip testing ahead of a trip. However, it's still a good idea to pack some rapid tests, said Keri Althoff, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. If you wake up one morning with a scratchy throat, "you can use that information from an antigen test to figure out what your next steps are that day," Althoff said.
If you're vaccinated and not showing any symptoms of illness, health experts say you don't have to get tested ahead of or after travel. One exception is if you're vaccinated but concerned about visiting someone at high risk for severe coronavirus, said Andrew Noymer, an associate professor of population health and disease prevention at University of California at Irvine. You can be extra cautious and test ahead of your trip.
If you're unvaccinated, you may want to rethink your plans and consider testing ahead of and after your trip, per CDC guidance.

The status of the highest car sales holder usually held by the Toyota Avanza must now be displaced by the new Mitsubishi Xpander star.
One reason is that the public is saturated with the Avanza design.
The public began to wonder, when Toyota's LMPV which had mastered the market had risen and resisted.
Do not stay silent, Toyota, which cannot be released also from Daihatsu, when talking about the Million MPV car of this People, have prepared ammunition.
But it seems, what will be released is not the time for the status of a new generation, but just a facelift, where changes to the exterior side mentioned will attract attention.
Had circulated the news, facelift Avanza-Xenia will be introduced at the end of 2018, but the latest information obtained from internal sources said the company will launch in early 2019.
The Heads Up Display that has adorned many Corvettes for years now may be cutting edge technology, but as far as GM is concerned it is becoming antiquated. That seems like a stretch, but GM is currently working on the next generation of the Heads Up Display and this time it is filled with even more high tech goodies.
Imagine traveling down a road and all of the sudden you are engulfed in thick fog. What do you do? You can't risk stopping as there is no visibility and someone may hit you from behind. You can't pull over because the shoulder is too narrow. Your only choice is to press on and hope that you can make out the curves in the road fast enough.
If you're in the market to add a new vehicle to your family, chances are you've done a lot of research. You've looked at makes and models, compared specs, and run the numbers on all of your top picks. But, before you make the final leap and sign on the dotted line, there are a few things you should consider about your new car.

American Writers Museum Reveals List of Literary Works Named by Writers and Readers as Providing a Better Understanding of America
Tino Calabia
The "List of Literary Works ... Providing a Better Understanding of America" reminds me of your June 2011 blog, "Gatsby…
The Great Gatsby, Leaves of Grass, To Kill a Mockingbird, Moby Dick, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and The Sun Also Rises Top List
"Which works by American writers should world leaders read to help them gain a better understanding of America?" That is the question posed last May to 38 contemporary American writers and the reading public in the first online exhibition of the future American Writers Museum®.
The exhibit, Power of the Word: Leaders, Readers and Writers, was curated to dovetail with the U.S. hosting this year of the G8 and NATO Summits, as well as the World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates.
According to Malcolm O'Hagan, chairman of the American Writers Museum Foundation, many readers and writers chose books that grapple with the challenges of American life.
Author Ann Patchett explained her choices by saying, "The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald is, to my mind, the quintessential American novel. It gets at the heart of how we strive and desire, and so often fail to take responsibility for our actions. At the other end of the spectrum, Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman and Lorraine Hansberry's Raisin in the Sun show what happens to the people who are shut out of the dream, or fail at it."
One reader chose The Grapes of Wrath "because it shows why it's so important for world leaders to do their jobs and also that America is not just a country of people aspiring to be wealthy. Some people just want to survive."
Another reader commented, "In many ways, I feel To Kill A Mockingbird is the definitive American book. Through its diverse characters it addresses the complexity of the American character."
Combining choices of featured writers and the reading public, the most frequently mentioned literary works that respondents felt should be read by world leaders to best understand America are:
Tied for first place:
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
Tied for second place:
To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Moby Dick by Herman Melville
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway
Tied for third place:
Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger
Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison
Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck
Other popular suggestions (in random order):
American Pastoral by Philip Roth
Beloved by Toni Morrison
Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller
Howl by Allen Ginsberg
The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson
Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
Native Son by Richard Wright
Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut
The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz
The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen
The Crucible by Arthur Miller
The Road by Cormac McCarthy
Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
Mark Twain and Arthur Miller were the only authors for whom two works appear on the most cited list. Walt Whitman, Allen Ginsberg and Emily Dickinson were the most frequently cited poets, and Arthur Miller and Lorraine Hansberry were the only playwrights mentioned.
"The list presented here is just a topline sampling," O'Hagan explains. "It's fascinating to go into the online Writers' Gallery and Readers' Gallery and browse through all responses — and contribute your own."
O'Hagan said not all the works suggested were written by Americans.
In naming Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy in America as one of his choices, for instance, writer Jeffrey Eugenides explained that "in order to understand America, you need to understand three things: its origins, its soul, and its trajectory. Democracy in America describes the first." And Jonathan Lethem selected Australian novelist Christina Stead's The Man Who Loved Children, explaining that she has "somehow captured in it a portrait of everything impossible and ineradicable in the spirit of American optimism."
The Writers' Gallery section of the online exhibit offers intriguing glimpses into the lives of writers who discuss their early reading experiences, and identify which books from other countries have influenced them.
The Leaders' Gallery offers fascinating insight into the literary interests of world leaders such as Barack Obama, Angela Merkel, and Oscar Carlos Arias Sanchez, among others.
The Readers Gallery can be accessed here, but note that after December 31, 2012 the interactive Readers Gallery will no longer be "live," so this is the last chance to participate in the exhibit before it is archived.
The mission of the American Writers Museum Foundation is to establish the first national museum in the United States dedicated to engaging the public in celebrating American writers and exploring their influence on our history, our identity, our culture and our daily lives. Learn more, read the museum's concept plan, and weigh in on choices for the museum's next online exhibition at www.americanwritersmuseum.org.

The "List of Literary Works … Providing a Better Understanding of America" reminds me of your June 2011 blog, "Gatsby Lives!"
You then expressed surprise that Gatsby was "being read by this generation of first- and second-generation immigrants in America." Remember that, John?
Anyway, like you, I've always considered "The Great Gatsby" as the Great American Novel. Nice to see that the American Writers Museum agrees with us and awarded Fitzgerald's novel the No. 1 spot (tied with "Leaves of Grass"). Thanks for sharing their "List …".

Public Release: 21-Dec-2005
Machinery of the 'marijuana munchies'
Marijuana--or more specifically its active ingredient, tetrahydrocannabinol--has a well-documented tendency to stimulate hunger. And while scientists have traced this property to cannabinoid receptors in the brain, they have had little understanding of the neural circuitry underlying this effect.
Understanding this circuitry has important practical implications because blocking the cannabinoid receptor, CB1, offers a promising approach to treating obesity. One such compound, rimonabant (trade name AcompliaTM) is already undergoing clinical testing.
In an article in the December 22, 2005, issue of Neuron, Young-Hwan Jo and colleagues report how the circuitry of CB1 is integrated with signaling by the appetite-suppressing hormone leptin. The CB1 receptor is normally triggered by natural regulatory molecules, called endocannabinoids.
In their studies, the researchers concentrated on the lateral hypothalamus (LH) of the brain, known to be a center of control of food intake. Their studies involved detailed electrophysiological measurements of the effects of specific neurons that they had identified in previous studies as being important in endocannabinoid signaling.
Their studies revealed that activation of CB1 receptors, as by endocannabinoid molecules, induced these neurons to be rendered more excitable by a mechanism called "depolarization-induced suppression of inhibition" (DSI).
What's more, they found that leptin inhibits DSI. However, they found that leptin did not interfere with the CB1 receptors themselves. Rather, leptin "short-circuits" the endocannabinoid effects by inhibiting pore-like channels in the neurons that regulate the flow of calcium into the neurons. Such calcium is necessary for the synthesis of endocannabinoids.
In further studies of mice genetically altered to be leptin deficient, the researchers found the DSI to be more prolonged than in normal mice. Thus, they said, the findings "implicate this mechanism for leptin receptor/endocannabinoid signaling in contributing to the maintenance of weight balance...." The researchers also included that "upregulation of endocannabinoid signaling in the LH may explain, at least in part, the increased body weight consistent with a prior report of elevated endocannabinoids" in such leptin-deficient mice.
The researchers concluded that their findings "are consistent with the hypothesis that the integration of endocannabinoid and leptin signaling regulates the excitability of neurons on appetite-related circuits."
They also wrote that "the cellular mechanisms of recently developed antiobesity drugs, such as rimonabant, may include decreased endocannabinoid signaling and hence decreased excitability of LH circuits related to appetite, even in the context of leptin insufficiency or resistance."
The researchers included Young-Hwan Jo, Ying-Jiun J. Chen, Streamson C. Chua, Jr., David A. Talmage and Lorna W. Role of Columbia University in New York, New York. This work was supported by NS22061 and a NARSAD Grable Distinguished Investigator award to L.W.R.; by CA79737 to D.A.T.; by DK57621 to S.C.C.; and by an award from the New York Obesity Research Center to Y.-H.J.

Colonial Downs Mount Fee To Be Highest In Mid-Atlantic After Guild, Virginia HBPA Pact
The following appeared in The Paulick Report June 27th.
The Jockeys' Guild and the Virginia HBPA have reached an agreement on a mount fee schedule for races to be run at Colonial Downs beginning with their opening day, August 8, 2019.
The mount fee schedule calls for a minimum fee of $125, the highest in the mid-Atlantic area. Racing is returning to Virginia for the first time since 2013. Daily purses are expected to average a minimum of $500,000 a day for the 15-day meet with a $1.8 million stakes schedule led by the $250,000 Virginia Derby (Gr. III) on August 31.
"I would like to thank Frank Petramalo, Jr., Executive Director of the Virginia HBPA and his board of directors for working with the Guild to reach this agreement," said Terry Meyocks, President and CEO of the Jockeys' Guild. "We are excited to see racing return to Colonial Downs which is noted for its turf racing program and the widest grass course in the country. We would also like to thank Jill Byrne, vice president of racing operations for prioritizing health and safety for the horses and riders for the upcoming meet."
"We're delighted with the reopening of Colonial Downs, which has one of the best turf courses in America. We invite all jockeys to come and "kick some grass" in Virginia," said Frank Petramalo, Jr.
The 2019 Colonial Downs meet will be conducted on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from August 8 through September 7.
