If you didn't know, we here at Super Chevy produce a few extra magazines every year we call specials. With titles like Chevelle, Chevy Classics, and the Nova Annual, you can tell what these are all about. In this year's Nova special (on sale March 29), I, with the help of Jason Scudellari, took on the task of doing a budget-minded small-block and overdrive trans swap into a '63 Nova wagon. Well, as things go sometimes, we didn't get the job done. I ran into a big road block in the way of lack of information. I tried finding a complete parts list of everything you need to do the swap, but could not.
Case in point: the water pump. I went with a short-style just to be safe on the fan clearance, but when I tried to fit the alternator it hit the valve cover and the strut tower. Yes, I had some things going against me, like taller valve covers and a possibly larger alternator, so I returned the short stuff and went with a long pump setup, which let me put the alt on the other side of the block in front of the valve cover. I prefer the long water-pump setup anyway because of the shorter belts and cleaner looks. But that now changed my wiring needs, and that is how things kind of went. Every change affected something else.
We went with a minimal budget/mail order mindset on this project, so you won't find billet pulleys, fuel injection or the likejust a simple carb and some shiny stuff so it still looks custom. I could have dropped the dollar figure considerably by going to the junkyard and getting a bunch of used stuff. The only issue I have with that is I can't guarantee your local yard will have what mine does, so it all needed to be new and available across the country.
Not wanting to leave things incomplete, this story is going to show the rest of the job with a complete parts list with part numbers, prices, and where to get it all. I'll start off with a brief recap of what went down in the Nova Annual and then finish it off. Also, there's a separate story on page 96 about building this Nova's exhaust system so be sure to check it out.

Comments about Gallant Nashbar Commuter Garment Pannier:
Benefits: Very water resistant. Good, large side pockets. Has carrying handle and shoulder strap. Nice reflectors. Good quality materials. Easy to mount. Stable on the bike - it doesn't wobble around.Cons: 5 lbs when empty (but helps durability). Could use a rear loop for a tail light. Panniers catch air and slow you down some. No instructions.Watch video on YouTube to see features and mounting.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Fantastic bag for my suit
By Harrison
from Indiana
About Me Competitive Cyclist
This is a great bag and I'd recommend it to anyone needing to bring a suit or even just pants, shirt and tie to work without having to worry about wrinkles. I just ordered a second bag after my first one wore out. I had my first one for just under 2 years. I have commuted roughly 6700 miles in that time using exclusively this bag. The bag has taking a hell of a beating commuting 13 miles (roundtrip) each day, year round. I have wiped out numerous times with the bag. A bunch of times were at low speed on ice/snow but I also had a few high speed (20-23mph) wipeouts where this bag skid across the ground and showed no signs of wear. So why replace it? I recall reading reviews 2 years ago about the zippers being plastic...ah yes, that is the only negative thing I can think of about this bag. The zippers are what holds it back from being a 5/5 star bag. Over the past few months the zippers started wearing out and not functioning properly. They became unstiched from the side pockets and then spots just wouldn't zip (a giant hole in the middle of the zipper, as in it was zipped on either side). I was able to work around this since the weather had been a bit dry and i was still able to open most of the pocket. Some of the zippers became off track and it was impossible to put them back on. And eventually, one side pocket had both zippers come undone which is why I'm buying a new bag. I didn't feel confident in getting the zipper replaced since the bag is water-resistant and the zippers were the weakpoint. I was worried a replacement zipper would be a downgrade to the zippers and in the weather I ride in I really do need good water resistance. Now, all of those troubles with the zippers happened well after 5000 miles. I definitely got my money's worth out of this bag. The bag is really quite water resistant. If anything gets wet, it's because it's pouring super hard and some water got through the zippers. I usually just packed important items in a plastic bag if I knew it was pouring outside and I was worried about it getting wet. In the two years I can think of this bag I can only think of a handful of times where my clothes got a little wet (full disclosure: I hang my clothes in a thin suit bag so there's an extra layer of protection--but not much, so overall the pannier itself did a great job protecting the clothes). Really don't know what else to say. This is a great bag. Yeah, the zippers could be better but for the price it's hard to compete. That's why when I was up for buying a new one I had no problems buying this one again since I know it lasted me a long time and it definitely makes bringing my suit to work much easier! If you're not wearing a suit then it may be worth checking into wrinkle free shirts and the rolling technique with other bags, but even when I don't wear a suit to work I'm still very happy with this bag.

Last 4 yrs, 12k mi at least, mostly...
By rhizomaticon2
from Humboldt Co., CA
About Me Commuter
It's getting to be time for me to replace this bag I've owned for over 4 years. I wasn't sure how long it was, and thought it was like 2 years, but my review from 2009 confirms it. I commute about 3k mi/yr, so that's about 12k miles on this bag. As I shop to replace it, and consider buying another one of these (or maybe just repair it), I thought it would be helpful to give the long-range durability perspective. In all, I would say it has held up well considering the amount of use I've gotten out of it. The zippers are a weak point: one side-pocket zipper is pretty shot and makes the pocket unusable, and lately the main zipper is starting to have trouble. The nylon is beginning to wear through in the scuff-prone corners and edges. The one side-pocket I still use because the zipper is okay is now starting to split apart at a sewed seam. I had forgotten about the internal plastic hook-hanger etc. because mine broke off early and I never really used it. As someone else said, it's best not to use hangers, and you can hang the bag with the external nylon loop. I still think the bungy hook mounts are a pain, but you do eventually get used to the feel, except when it's really cold and you don't get the hook on the rack and it instead snaps against your fingers.I don't suppose we should expect this thing to last forever, especially considering the amount of use I got out of it. But a couple little improvements (better mounts, better zippers, reinforced corners, heavier thread, reinforced stitching at stress points) could make this a really outstanding bag. As it is, I think 4 years and 12,000 miles was a pretty good run for a bag this inexpensive. And heck, I may do some sewing and repair and keep it for another 4 years...

This bag is game changer...just buy it!
By Mike The Bike Commuter
from Alexandria, VA
I've been using this bag for about 4 months on my 26-mile roundtrip commute 3 times a week. Bottom line: I should have gotten this bag 2 years ago when I started to wear coats & ties to work. Stop thinking about this purchase -- buy it and make your bike commute simple again!This is what I typically put into this bag for my commute: 2 pants, 2 shirts, 2 ties, one pair of shoes, 2 sets of undershirts/underwear/socks, 1 belt and 2 lunches. I usually use non-iron shirts when I commute but even 100% cotton shirts are presentable when I unpack them at the end of my commute. There are plenty of zippered pockets to separate your delicate items from the bulk of your load. The zippers aren't heavy duty but they got the job done.I found mounting the bag to the bike rack to be simple enough. The bag includes straps on the front and rear to keep it centered on your rack and stable during your commute but I wound up not using them and just zip tied them out of the way. All garment bags will overhang the back of bike racks (no bike rack is long enough) and this one did too. No big deal.If you've read the other reviews, you've seen comments about the weight of this bag and concerns about how durable it will be in the long term. I agree with both. The bag is no lightweight and I am more gentle with this bag than I am with the other Nashbar bags I have. These two things shouldn't stop you from buying it...just be aware up front.Buy this bag not because it's super durable or will last 15 years...get it because it just gets your dress clothes to work without drama or wrinkles. It's one less thing to worry about.
So far so good.
By Commuter
from Columbia, MD
This bag does what its supposed to. I've used it only for a little over a month on my daily 8 mile one-way commute. I carry a button down shirt, pants, shoes, extra undergarments, towel, shampoo, etc. just fine. I've been caught in the rain a couple times and this has kept my cloths dry. I do have 2 complaints.1 - The bag overhangs my rack a little bit on the back, but its no big deal.2 - The bag tends to inch its way forward on my rack as I ride and it eventually gets up far enough that my heels can hit it. It can be annoying but my heels only ever brush by it. I usually reach back and try to adjust the bag.Given the price these are minor concerns.

Liking it so far... hope it holds up.
By The Happy Commuter
from Berkeley, CA
Use this product at the beginning and end of my workweek. Bring it in with clothes on Monday; return home on Fridays. The smaller zippers seem a tad cheap; I'm wondering how long they're going to last. Otherwise, it works as the product description describes... at least so far.
Nice idea, good bag...
By Me
from Baltimore, MD
I like this bag, it's almost the right size and solves my problem of having 'grownup' cloths to change into when I commute.It works better without hangers and I don't tend to put my shoes in it, opting to wear my work shoes.I thought about other forms of panniers and wanted the garment bag style and this was really the only one of that form.Nice bag.

One year of great use!
By Rich
from Columbia SC
I've had the bag for a year and love it. When I changed jobs, my commute went from 2.5 miles to a little under 10. Also, at my new job, there is a slightly higher bar for dress, including wool slacks and dress shirts. I have a shower at work, so I just need to get my work clothes there in presentable condition. Mission accomplished. The bag works perfectly. My clothes look good when I take them out, and there is sufficient room for all of my stuff. For convenience, I supplement the bag with a backpack. It makes it easier to pack since I don't have to be quite as efficient or particular. I ride a Kona Ute, so I have room for the extra pack on my bike. If I rode a regular sized bike, I would probably just use the garment bag only.Also, I wear non-iron dress shirts. I'm not sure that standard shirts would do as well, since things are folded up bit. Finally, as mentioned, I ride a Ute. I did have to modify the wooden cargo deck to accomodate the clips for the bag. That was a five minute job with a jigsaw. All in all, I couldn't be happier with the purchase. The price is right and the bag functions as promised.

Great product / Great Price
By Aaron
from Camden, NJ
This is a great commuter tool for those who need to look professional and still want to bike to work. The elastic straps provided do work depending on what type of Bike rack you are using. I have the TOPEAK Super tourist dx disc and it works great with the garment bag. The elastic straps fit perfectly into the bottom of the rack mount and click into place. It can make the rear of the bike imbalanced if not packed properly and not careful. Def think about upgrading to a puncture resistant rear tire while using the rack and bag...increased weight = more flats if not. have been using the bag for approx 4 months now daily and no issues. Works way better than rolling clothes in a backpack.

This is the Answer
By Seattle Cyclist
from Seattle, WA
Working in an office a mere 6 miles away from home with a beautiful, paved bike trail and marked bike lanes between, I had but one excuse for not cycle commuting: clothes. I needed to be able to bring slacks and a button-up to work without wrinkles, and this was the sole thing standing in the way. Then I saw this garment pannier, and my hopes soared. So I got one. And it was worth it!Clothes:The very bottom of the shirts get a little crunched because I also put a laptop in the bottom, but the bottoms of the shirt get tucked in anyway so this is a non-issue. Pants require one fold, and the brief time they spend in the bag isn't enough to wrinkle them. Pants and shirt arrive in presentable condition to allow me to maintain a professional appearance at the office. Mounting: I noticed some other reviewers had trouble mounting the bag, and this can be confusing at first since there are no instructions. But once I figured out that the hooks on the bungies are to attach to the bottom of my rack, mounting the bag is easy as tying my shoes (with some stretchy laces). When mounting, I let the bag settle back on the rack a little to avoid heel-strike and to provide clearance for the rear clasp. After some test rides, I learned to trust the stability of the mounting setup -- I descent a 430 foot, 9% hill on the way to work and the bag is not one of my worries. On the way back up the hill, I can stand out of the saddle and not worry about it shaking loose. Price:I've gathered that explicitly stating a price in the review is censored, but let me just say that I've seen a similar product from a competitor and Nashbar has them beat by a mile and then some. Storage:I can fit office shoes in one pocket, lunch in another, and some odds and ends in the top pocket, such as stuff for the shower. There are sub-pockets on the sides, where I can store things like a wallet, phone, badge, tea bags, headphones, thumb drives, etc. While the storage isn't overwhelming (it does get a bit cramped in the main area when I put a towel in there with the clothing), it is adequate for what I need. No longer do I sit stuck in traffic, watching luckier folks zipping by on the bike path. This bag was the answer.

A tale of terror for midsummer's eve...
After the fail of my reading of Tennyson's The Splendour Falls I decided to compound and enlarge my error by a reading of one of my own works. It's set at midsummer's eve so this'd be the the right time for posting. In the main I'm pretty happy with the presentation - where it falls down is in my voice: frankly, I'm no Richard Burton. It's 8 minutes, so, not short, and not much to watch, though it looks better at YouTube than embedded.
Yes, I know I could've posted this on the youtube thread or the poetry thread and it probably belongs on another board but I worked hard on it and I hope he mods will give it a day or two in the limelight before they move it to the back of beyond
comments, criticism and abuse welcome

Impotence/Erectile Dysfunction
Impotence/Erectile Dysfunction Introduction
Erectile dysfunction (ED) or male impotence is defined as the inability of a man to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for mutually satisfactory intercourse with his partner.
Sexual health and function are important determinants of quality of life. As Americans age, disorders such as erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence are becoming increasingly more important. Because this subject is discussed widely in the media, men and women of all ages are seeking guidance in an effort to improve their relationships and experience satisfying sex lives.
Sexual dysfunction is often associated with disorders such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, nervous system disorders, and depression. Erectile dysfunction may also be an unwanted side effect from medication. In some men, sexual dysfunction may be the symptom of such disorders that brings them to the doctor's office.
The successful treatment of impotence has been demonstrated to improve intimacy and satisfaction, improve sexual aspects of quality of life as well as overall quality of life, and relieve symptoms of depression.
Premature ejaculation is often confused with erectile dysfunction. Premature ejaculation is a condition in which the entire process of arousal, erection, ejaculation, and climax occur very rapidly, often in just a few minutes or even seconds, leaving the partner unsatisfied. Premature ejaculation may accompany an erection problem such as ED but is generally treated differently.
Although this information focuses primarily on male ED, remember that the partner plays an integral role. If successful and effective management is to occur, any discussion of treatment should include the couple.

Student Organization Grants Program
The Drexel University Alumni Board of Governors has established a Grants Program to provide financial support to recognized student organizations.
The Board evaluates funding proposals and provides financial support for activities hosted by recognized student organizations that increase the interaction between students and alumni, enhance the student experience, promote tradition, support academic excellence, reconnect alumni to the university, create a greater awareness of the Alumni Association, and promote the Association as a relevant and integral part of the University community.
Alumni Association Scholarship Program
The Drexel University Alumni Association annually awards scholarships to current Drexel students based on demonstrated leadership and achievement under the Alumni Leadership, Alumni Legacy, and Alumnae Planning Board Scholarships criteria below.
Note: All applicants must be in good standing with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher and must have been enrolled at Drexel University for at least three terms. Students who have already been awarded a full tuition scholarship are not eligible. Past Alumni Legacy Scholarship recipients are ineligible to apply for the Alumni Legacy Scholarship in subsequent years, though they are not prohibited from applying for the Alumni Leadership or Alumnae Planning Board Scholarships.
Scholarship recipients are announced during Alumni Weekend in May and scholarship awards are subject to the regulations of the Office of Financial Aid. Scholarship funds are applied for the following Fall Term and recipients must be registered for a full-time schedule at that time.
*Legacy students are children or grandchildren of alumni of Drexel University, Drexel University College of Medicine, and of the predecessor institutions of the College of Medicine and College of Nursing and Health Professions: Hahnemann Medical College/University, Woman's Medical College, Medical College of Pennsylvania, Allegheny University, and MCP Hahnemann University.
Other Scholarship Opportunities
Nicholas P. Pipino Memorial Scholarship
The Nicholas P. Pipino Memorial Foundation was founded by family, friends, and volunteers seeking to stop senseless acts of violence and also preserve their fond memories of Nick Pipino, a Drexel University student who was fatally stabbed outside Cavanaugh's Restaurant & Bar on December 19, 1992, where he worked part-time as a bartender while pursuing an undergraduate degree at Drexel.
In keeping with Nick's love for the outdoors, the foundation has organized the University City 5K Run since 1993 as a way to make something positive come out of Nick's untimely death. The foundation has also partnered with Drexel University creating scholarship opportunities which enable young individuals to obtain an education without the demands of part-time employment and allows the student to focus on his or her education. The relationship between Drexel and the Nicholas P. Pipino Memorial Foundation provides financial assistance and a quality education to enthusiastic students who are eager to meet the realistic demands of the professional world.
Dragon Alumni Scholarship
The Dragon Alumni Scholarship is a $4,000 scholarship awarded to enrolling undergraduates who have been recommended by a Drexel alumnus/a or trustee. The student will receive $333 for a maximum of 12 quarters towards tuition only. Enrolling students must submit a request for a recommendation, which is then forwarded to the alumnus/a to complete.
Recommendation requests should be submitted at least two weeks in advance of the deadlines listed below in order to allow sufficient time for the alumnus/a to complete the recommendation. Recommendations must be submitted before the student begins classes; current students are not eligible.
For more on eligibilty requirements and the submission process, click here.
Questions should be directed to Undergraduate Admissions at 1.800.2.DREXEL or email@example.com. Note: Nursing ACE, RN-BSN Degree Completion, and Radiologic Technology applicants are not eligible for the Dragon Alumni Scholarship.
Dragon Family Scholarship
Beginning with students first enrolling in fall 2009, the Dragon Family Scholarship is offered to two or more children from the same family who attend Drexel University as undergraduates. Recipients must be enrolled in a full-time undergraduate program. Recipients will receive $1,000 for each quarter they are enrolled full-time in classes. This award will not be applied in excess of 12 academic quarters and pays towards tuition only. Qualified students who enrolled prior to fall 2009 will receive a total of $466 that will be applied over their academic program at Drexel. Questions should be directed to Undergraduate Admissions at 1.800.2.DREXEL.
Drexel Legacy Scholarship

Questions should be directed to Undergraduate Admissions at 1.800.2.DREXEL.

Tutorial: Preparing Images for Web
The right photo adds visual information that your text doesn't - lets people know what your staff looks like, or lets them see students engaged in class.
Always remember that many visitors to our website will only see us through the website. Out of focus, grainy, or irrelevant photos will send a poor message about Liberty and your department!
The LU Photography department is a good resource for quality photos. They have thousands of photos and can even take photos of your special event.
After you find the perfect photo, it is equally important that it be properly prepared for use on the web. The following is a short tutorial on how to prepare your images for use on your web pages.
*Important Note: You can make an image smaller but you cannot make an image bigger. Increasing the file size (by increasing resolution or dimensions) of your image will make it pixellated and ugly!
Step 1: Open
Open the image in Photoshop. I'll use this photo of the Debate Team, taken by University Photographer Les Schofer, as my example.
If the Tools box is not displayed, go to Window and click on Tools.
Step 2: Crop
In my example, I want to crop out some of the photo that doesn't have people in it. There are two ways to crop - using the Marquee tool, or the Crop tool.
To use the Marquee tool, select it from the Tools box, then click and drag to form a selection. Go to Image and Crop. The area outside the selection will be cropped.
To use the Crop tool, select it from the Tools box, then click and drag to form a selection. The area outside the selection will darken to give a preview. Click on the check mark at the top of the program to accept the crop (or the "no" symbol to reject):
Step 3: Image Size
Now the cropped photo looks like this:
Go to Image and Image Size. This will bring up a box that gives you lots of useful information about the image:
The dimensions are best viewed in pixels. Use the drop-down box to change to pixels if necessary.
Since the photo is already cropped and made into the desired shape, all we need to do is change the size. In this example, changing the width is a good idea since it's the larger dimension. To give some idea of of what our webpage dimensions are, our pages have an editable width of 590 pixels on pages displaying the navigation bar. (Without navigation, editable width is 750 px.)
Let's put in 250 as the width, which will create a photo that takes about half the width of the webpage. The height automatically adjusts to keep the ratio. (If this doesn't happen, cancel out of the window, go to Image and Image Size again, and check the "Constrain Proportions" box before you change any dimensions.) Then click OK.
The photo got really small. To see what it looks like at 100%, use the CTRL+ and CTRL- keyboard shortcuts to make the image view bigger or smaller. The top of your image box will show at what percentage you're currently viewing the image:
Step 4: Save for Web
There's a special saving function that will make the image smaller than we've already made it and set the resolution to 72, which is what we want for web use. Go to File, and choose the Save for Web option.
A new screen opens.
Make sure the 2-up tab is selected. The left pane shows your cropped, resized file. The file size for this example is 120K. The right pane shows the optimized file. The file size reads 27.14K.
At the top right, there is a dropdown box where you need to make sure JPG is chosen. There is also a box labelled Quality with a button with an arrow on it. When you click that, a slider bar comes up allowing you to change the quality. If you drag that all the way to the left, you'll notice that the preview in the right pane gets pixellated and bad-looking. The file size also goes down. If you drag it to the right, the preview in the right pane looks perfect and the file size goes up.
Position the slider somewhere in the middle where the preview image looks as good as the image in the left pane. Then click Save. In our example, we created a file for web at 27K that looks as good as a file at 120K. The smaller the file size, the less space used on our servers, and the faster your webpages will load - especially important for those visitors using dial-up.

All-aluminum small-blocks have mystique. Even today, when production V-8s come with aluminum blocks straight from the showroom, there is still something magical about an all-alloy Gen I Mouse motor. Back in the '60s they were the acme of high technology, the signifiers of high-level factory connections, generally found only in exotic racers like Jim Hall's Chaparrals and Mickey Thompson's Indy cars. Here in the 21st century, aluminum small-blocks, now available to one and all straight off the rack, continue to dominate in venues where good power and light weight are key-sprint cars, to name one example.
All this is exactly what famed Detroit race car fabricator Ron Fournier was thinking when he went shopping for a new engine for his personal, handbuilt track roadster. Fournier designed his 1,600-pound bomb as a tribute to the great track roadsters of the '50s, and also as a sort of street-legal sprint car-he likes to hot-lap the roadster at local dirt tracks when he gets the chance. An all-aluminum small-block was the perfect choice for his rod, so he called his buddies at Dart Machinery in nearby Troy, Michigan, leading purveyors of aluminum Chevy blocks. The build for Fournier's engine was performed in-house at Dart's engine shop by Jeff Lake and Tony McAfee, the company's Pro Stock specialists.
Though the piece is cast in aluminum rather than iron, the Dart block bears some dimensional similarities to the Chevy-based Olds Rocket block originally marketed by GM Performance Parts. So while the Dart casting is somewhat non-standard compared to a conventional SBC, parts channels are still comfortably wide. To accommodate big stroker cranks, the oil pain rails have been spread outboard 0.400-inch on each side, while the camshaft is raised 0.391-inch in the block, rolling on big-block Chevy journals. Thus configured, the casting can accept bores of up to 4.185 inches and strokes of up to 4.125 inches, for as much as 454 ci. While Dart's block is most typically used in oval racing, the casting was designed from the start to support street hardware, including a mechanical fuel pump, a conventional distributor, and a wet-sump oil system. There are a few wrinkles involved in setting up the Dart block for road use, however, and we'll cover them here.
Fournier's roadster may be a dirt sprinter in spirit, but for the engine buildup Lake and McAfee deliberately went 180 degrees from the typical high-revving, no-flywheel, light-switch combination employed in the circle-track world. Instead, they opted for real-world street performance, with good driveability and a big, fat torque curve. Sidestepping the more expensive and exotic reciprocating components, they set the displacement at 400 ci with a 4.125-inch bore and a 3.75-inch stroke. Since that's still on the biggish side for a small-block, their cylinder head choice for this engine may raise an eyebrow or two in some quarters: the Pro1 Platinum series with 180cc intake ports, the smallest offered by Dart.
Among his other duties at Dart, McAfee heads the company's advanced wet-flow bench research program, where he has developed some firm convictions about what works and what doesn't for a given combination. "This is the smallest port we offer and I would say it's way underestimated," he says. "The 180 has the best overall performance for the street and it's absolutely ideal for hydraulic roller cams. For power peaks below around 6,400 rpm and displacements up to 400 inches, this is the head you want." To finish off the conservative, high-velocity airflow combination, a 650-cfm Demon carburetor and a dual-plane Dart intake manifold were selected.

According to records released by the Marshall County (Ind.) Sheriff's Department, Torres, 32, was charged with possession of marijuana. He posted a $1,500 cash bond later in the day. A minuscule amount in comparison to the grand total of $100,000 Jason Miller had to shell out in August, which as a whole, hasn't been a stellar month for former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighters.
In the state of Indiana, marijuana possession is a misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in prison and a maximum fine of $5,000 dollars.
At (40-6), the struggling bantamweight has not thrown down since a split decision loss to Marlon Moraes during last November's World Series of Fighting 1 (WSOF) event in Las Vegas.

THOUSANDS of punters flocked to Cartmel Races for the course's biggest meeting of the year, spread over three days.
The traditional Bank Holiday Monday event attracted a crowd of 16,000 to watch the seven races.
Jonathan Garratt, Cartmel Racecourse managing director, said the bookies did not fare too badly.
"I think it has been mixed; they have had some favourites going in but I'm sure they have had ups and downs."
Punters successfully backed legendary racer Tony McCoy, who appeared on Monday.
Yesterday, too, proved a rare highlight for racegoers as three Cheltenham Festival horses went on parade for Veterans Day.
Chief Dan George, who is trained just a mile from Cartmel by Jimmy Moffatt, was joined by Mister McGoldrick and Hussard Collonges.
"We have had a lot of people who are on half-term holiday but it's also the day when racing enthusiasts from all over the country come and have their day at Cartmel because the course is slightly less overcrowded," said Mr Garratt.
Meanwhile, a racing steward became the first person to join an exclusive Cartmel 'club'.
Officiating at Saturday's races signalled a landmark for Colin Vickers — it meant he had visited every racecourse in Britain.
Cartmel Racecourse chairman Lord Cavendish presented Mr Vickers with a souvenir badge, which coincided with the launch of an I've Saved The Best Until Last club.
Anyone completing a visit to all Britain's racecourses with a trip to Cartmel will now receive one of the specially-commissioned badges.
Mr Garratt said: "When I came here I was amazed how many people said they had been to every other racecourse before they tasted the unique delights of Cartmel.
"I realised that they were saving the best until last."
TWO thirds of the red kites released in Grizedale Forest last summer have survived the harsh winter.
Wildlife rangers believe that around 20 of the 30 birds released in the Forestry Commission's three-year re-introduction programme made it through the winter and are still in Cumbria, or nearby counties. Between five and eight of the birds are believed to be living around Grizedale and the Rusland Valley, with another three to five inhabiting the Kirkby Moor area near Ulverston.
Four more Grizedale red kites have been spotted by RSPB experts at feeding stations in Dumfries and Galloway – the furthest known movement is by the bird tagged as number four, which has flown 120km north west into Scotland.
"The birds are doing pretty much exactly as we expected, which is very encouraging," said Iain Yoxall, Forestry Commission wildlife ranger. "We are more confident that these birds will make it to adults now they have made it through a harsh winter. Sadly we lost a few birds but that is natural and why we have to release the numbers that we did."
The 30 red kites released from a secret location in Grizedale Forest in August last year had coloured tags on each wing. An orange tag on their left wing shows they are from Grizedale, and blue tags on their right wings indicate that they were released in 2010. Some birds were also fitted with radio transmitters to help with monitoring.
Mr Yoxall, who has been following the birds' movements around Cumbria, said the help he has received from the public had been invaluable. "I have been radio tracking the birds but sightings from members of the public have been a fantastic help and greatly appreciated. This has been very important because it helps us find the birds and backs up our radio tracking results to give us a more robust picture of their movements. We hope that the public will continue letting us know when and where they make sightings of the red kites."
This year's birds will hatch in May and are likely to be released into Grizedale Forest in August. The red kites being introduced into Grizedale are the product of a reintroduction programme that took place in Northamptonshire in the 1980s.
Red kites were almost eradicated from the UK following changes in farming practices and human persecution between the 16th and 19th centuries. But they managed to cling on in Wales, and their numbers recovered slowly thanks to the actions of local conservationists

The Phoenix traveled to Penn State Berks this afternoon for a NEAC contest against the Nittany Lions. Wilson fell to Penn State Berks by a final score of 11-0.
Unfortunately Wilson was not able to keep up with the scoring pace of the Nittany Lions. They found themselves down 4-0 after the first half and were not able to record a shot. Penn State Berks continued to pile on the goals in the second half and added seven more to their total. Freshman Nana Ohene-Manu recorded the only shot for Wilson. Freshman Teniera Prioleau had a busy day in net and summed up 13 saves.
The Phoenix return to action on October 9, when they host Valley Forge Christian College at 4:30pm

What Moral Authority?
Today's New York Times has a story about Christian groups pressing Bush to put pressure on North Korea to end human rights abuses in that country. The Midland, Texas Ministerial Alliance, the National Association of Evangelicals, the Southern Baptist Convention and other groups are taking the lead in this effort.
I'm in complete accord with the efforts to call for an end to the human rights abuses by the government of North Korea. I also believe Christians need to call for an end to human rights abuses by the government of the United States.
What makes conservative Christians think that this administration and this country has any moral authority to put pressure on any country to end human rights abuses?
What are the Midland Ministerial Alliance, the National Association of Evangelicals, and the Southern Baptist Convention doing to put pressure on Bush to end the torture and abuse of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib?
The eyes of the entire world are focused on conservative, evangelical Christians in America. History will give evangelical Christians full credit for unconscionably supporting this administration's pre-emptive war under false pretenses, it's criminal treatment of prisoners of war, and it's hysterical suspension of civil rights. Nothing has done more to undermine the credibility of the gospel in the eyes of the unbelieving world in my lifetime.
When are evangelicals going to start removing the logs that are in our own eyes?

Certain cirles of though have suggested that what right do we as Americans have in putting our noses in other peoples countries. I say that as a member on the United States Navy and as Americans we have a moral obligation to liberate the oppresed peoples of the world. Now about the abuses at Abu Ghraib and at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
I do not condone the abuses of ememy combatants and detainees at these facilities and that as human beings they deserve to be treated with a little shred of decency. But do not forget that these people are the kind that if given a chance to be out in the world again that they would cease at no effort to murder innocent men, women, and children preferably Americans and anyone who professess a Jewish or Christian faith.
But as Americans we have moral fortitude to combat the atrocities that other nations (Saddam-era Iraq, Cambodia and other African nations, and North Korea) commit on their own people.
Who is to say what would have happened if we never got involed with the distruction of the murderous reign of the Third Riech and Adolph Hitler
- greg said...
From where does this moral obligation derive?
Who is to say what would have happened had the nations of the world listened to Pope Benedict XV and invited him to the Paris Peace Conference in 1919?
- Kevin said...
Liberation begins at home. The US gov't, and the supporters of the war in Iraq need to come clean about the abuses of detainees before lecturing the world on human rights.
- Greek Shadow said...
Are we back to "White Man's Burden?" That is what led to England's Empire disentigrating and led to WWI & WWII.
- TheGreenKnight said...
do not forget that these people are the kind that if given a chance to be out in the world again that they would cease at no effort to murder innocent men, women, and children
But it's well known that not all of the detainees are such people. There are small children there; some prisoners have already been released. In fact, the latest news is that many of the prisoners at Gitmo are going to be released to Afghanistan.
As for those who are in fact people who would murder the innocent, well, since they're in prison they aren't going to do that, and there is no need to torture them; doing so does not do anything further to prevent them from committing murder.
Who is to say what would have happened if we never got involed with the distruction of the murderous reign of the Third Riech and Adolph Hitler
Did we torture German prisoners? And remember, Hitler declared war on us.
- Joshua T. Clark said...
Are you inmplying that I somehow condone the few acts of torture committed buy the hands of a very small group of service members at Abu Ghraib and GITMO.
All I am trying to say is that these people were captured trying to kill innocent people and our men and women in the armed forces.
Also there has been instances that detainees were released and then they were re-captured doing the same thing that they were put there in the first place.
Someone said where does this moral authority derive from. This authority I think derives from the fact that our Constitution is based on the natural rights philosophy the John Locke stated so many years ago.
Also who else will stand up against the purely evil acts of barbarism that totalitarium, despotic, and oppressive dictator ran regimes around the world. The "free" nations of the world either have no way of helping or for better use of the word "testicular fortitude" to dirty their hands up a little bit to make this world a better place.
- Dr. Bruce Prescott said...
Our hands are certainly dirty in Iraq.
Whether this war has made either Iraq or the world a better place is questionable. Many are concluding that both Iraq and the world are more dangerous places than before.
Here's a link to a previous blog with comments pertinent to this discussion.
- Joshua T. Clark said...
This world will continue to a dangerous place as long as the institution of terrorism exists. I do not deny the facts that the US's involement in the affairs of other countries ( Iran-Iraq conflict, the Mujahadid in Afganistan, and Vietnam) have been a prime example of the cliche " The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Our involement in these conflicts partially to blame for the current climate of these regions today. But by following the mantra of the left-leaning anti-war movement there would have not been a Revolutionay War to free this country from the grip of an English tyrant.
Instead of an American flag flying over the US Capital there might have been a red flag bearing a swaztika if it was not for our involement in destroying a regime with Adolph Hitler at the helm and his brutal slaughter of millions of Jews and other peoples just because they were not parts of his grand Aryan-Master race concept.
As a devout Christian I cannot turn my eyes to the suffering of the world. Doing so would be ungodly. It is my duty as a follower of Christ that I do exactly what he did so many years ago by bringing hope and comfort to the downtrodden of the world.
But it is also my responsiblity as a Christian that there is pure un-adulerated evil that exists in this world and that real peace can never exist so long as the fallible nature of man continues.
People preach for world peace and such a peace can never exist. I do not glorify. War is a very awful thing. But war is a necessary evil that has been used for both good and bad reasons but I say that war has brought us the freedom that so many Americans take for granted. These people have completly forgetten or fail to recognize that if it was not for the sacrfices that this country and the people wearing the uniform of an Airman, Guardsman, Soldier, Marine, and Sailor have gone for throught the ages in support of the Flag that our country would not have existed.
- greg said...
Sorry, you entered bizzaro world with this one: "It is my duty as a follower of Christ that I do exactly what he did so many years ago by bringing hope and comfort to the downtrodden of the world." You'll need to show me where he did that by means of weapons and violence against the Roman Empire, the main agents of downtrodding in his day.
And this: "pure un-adulerated evil..." No such thing. We're all adulterated by different motivations and passions--some good, some bad. Hitler loved classical music, especially Wagner, so you'd have to admit his aesthetic tastes were directed toward the good at times.
Not to be anti-American, and I'm certainly not, but you speak as if it were a moral and ontological imperative that America exist. What if there had been no Revolutionary War? Freedom would never have happened? That's what you're implying, despite the fact that the trajectory of liberty was already at work in many nations of the world prior to our Revolutionary War. I am grateful for the sacrifices that made us free, but I don't delude myself into believing America has the moral objectivity to carry out crusades for the rest of the world.
By a conservative estimate 30,000 innocent Iraqis are dead, a large percentage due to American bombs and guns. Are we to shrug those losses off as the cost of doing war, cause I bet those dead folk don't feel real liberated from the regime of the pure evil madman that the U.S. was happy to do business with as long as it benefitted us.
- Marty said...
I've been reading this thread wondering what would have happened had America taken a non violent route. I couldn't help but think about Mahatma Ghandi. I learned in a non-violence class about his salt march and how he helped to liberate India from British rule all through non violent means. There is a website ...http://www.moreorless.au.com/. Perhaps some of you would be interested in checking it out. I found it to be quite interesting.
- Dr. Bruce Prescott said...
Thanks for your link to .
It is a very interesting website.

I could have almost walked away from this discussion, until you wrote the words, But by following the mantra of the left-leaning anti-war movement there would have not been a Revolutionay War to free this country from the grip of an English tyrant.
You're in the United States military, yet you appear to know nothing about American history, short of what Bill O'Reilley and his ilk have blathered on about.
There was no "left-leaning anti-war movement" in the late 18th Century. The type of people you describe with post-World War II rhetoric did not exist. Those you consider "left-leaning" were the revolutionists -- the US's founding fathers of Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, etc.
Your anti-war movement at that time was made up of Torrie loyalists -- people of property, landed gentry in the North and South, who as long as they were comfortable under British Imperial rule didn't care about the rights/needs of their fellow colonists.
I'm not going to debate about the rightness or wrongness of the Revolutionary War. But it was England, not the relatively new nation of America, that abolished slavery decades before a Civil War brought us to that crossroads.
Without the money that Louis of France gave those "left-leaning" revolutionists, there might never have been a later French revolution, creating in effect the first Marxist state. And from whose ashes sprouted the 19th century equivalent of World War with the rise of Napoleon.
Every course of action in the history of the world has its later consequences. By training the Mujahadin to fight against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, we set the stage for the rise of armed, global extremist cells. Had the US not abandoned the Afghanis after the Soviet withdrawl, would we be experiencing the blow-back we are now?
Please, at least learn about world history, and learn that it's not some clearly defined white line between "liberal" and "conservative". Learn the true meaning of what conservative ideals were/are, as expressed by men like Barry Goldwater and Richard Nixon (who have both been condemned by neo-con types).
- Joshua T. Clark said...
I am very proud to be a conservative and a member of the Grand Old Party. I am quite versed in American History and I am trying to make a parallel between the folks on the left side of the aisle and the Loyalist of the American Revolution. The anti-war movement would rather negotiate and appease these terrorists rather than put them six feet under. The Loyalists turned on there own families and turned them over to the British. I know my history and my family is a part of that (Abraham Clark, statesman from New Jersey whose name is on the Declaration). Good evening
- Marty said...
I believe the anti-war movement would prefer to bring the terrorists to justice like we would to other criminials, working wtih other nations to do so, cooperating and sharing of intelligence and information. It is not the desire of anyone to "negotiate" with terrorists.
- Marty said...
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children....This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from an iron cross."
Dwight D. Eisenhower

I can't even place the very first moment I heard of it, but I was in my very early teens when the internet started "happening."
By the time I was 20 we didn't know what we'd do without it, and that was before social media like Facebook was even created.
I say that because I really try to imagine in my mind living in the world without any of it, which is only possible because the first third of my life was that way. In some ways it seems nice to me, like life would be less...noisy.
And then I see something like this and it all gets thrown right out the window.

Some moron (from the left) will undoubtedly see this and interpret it as cheering for Putin and thinking being in the KGB is a great thing.
That's not what this is, only a mental midget would see it that way.
Where these three men were in their lives at 23 years of age explains who they are today. I don't need to go down the line to elaborate, this graphic explains itself.

There was a special election in Florida 13 yesterday and Republican David Jolly beat now two-time loser Democrat Alex Sink.
Apparently, Obamacare was a central issue of the campaign, and Sink stupidly was unapologetic in her support for it.
It's worth noting the last name, Sink. I'm not much of a believer in coincidences, so lets hope this is a harbinger of what's to come in 8 months.

I first happened upon Celtic Thunder some months ago when a concert they performed was on PBS. I thought they were really great, but I hadn't seen this from them.
Even with the most banal singing voice Amazing Grace is one of most (if not THE most), beautiful and profound songs ever created. That's what makes this so flippin' awesome.

By Claire Walla
Eighth grader Casey Grubb first came to the Jeanette Sarkisian Wagner Teen Writing Workshop because her school counselor suggested it might be something she would enjoy.
She didn't expect to like it this much.
"I've always written, but I've never shared it with anyone," she said. "I was an 'in the closet writer!'" she added with a laugh.
Though Grubb's always been prone to drafting short stories and creating her own narratives, she continued, "I've never been able to share something so raw."
This Sunday, after eight months of weekly writing classes, Grubb will be reading an original work aloud along with nearly a dozen other students at the John Jermain Memorial Library, located on West Water Street in Sag Harbor.
"This year, I was trying to give the students the confidence to start sharing their work, to have them believe that their voice has value," said Emily Weitz, a writer who works part-time for The Express and leads the teen writing workshop each week.
"My role in their lives is somewhere in between teacher and friend," Weitz explained. "I'm more like their artistic peer, because they're writers and I'm a writer. We're all on the same path, and I really look at them like that."
The class is structured very loosely, often with a prompt or a question at the beginning, inviting all students to enter into discussions before putting pen to paper. While her goal is to get students' creative juices flowing, Weitz said the bottom line is more simplistic than that: "I just want them to write."
Weitz said she learned early on that structure is not necessarily conducive to this class.
"I gave them notebooks on the very first day… they were all gone by the second week," she said with a laugh. In the end, while Weitz helps students edit their pieces, diligent documentation and structured technique are not the point.
"The main goal of this class is to give kids the time and the space to write, to define their own voices without trying to be something that someone else expects them to be," she explained. "They're constantly trying to fit into these expectations that their parents or peers have for them, so it's important for them to have a space where they can write whatever they want, whether it's a diary entry or a story about a magical world."
Weitz often starts class by giving students a prompt to stir their creative juices. Such topics have invited students to consider what they carry around in their own bags (and why?) or asked the to wonder what it might be like to be a tourist in their own town.
Eighth grader Alika Esperson said she particularly enjoyed thinking about Sag Harbor from a new perspective.
"I do that more now because I see all the little stuff — the horse from the Five and Ten, or the school with the big clock — and it seems new," she explained. "I think it's important every once in a while to look at things differently."
Throughout the year, students have been adding to an e-zine, called "Moss," which can be found through the library's homepage, or by simply going to moss.johnjermain.org. Their first (and only) public reading will take place on Sunday, May 6 at 5 p.m.
"I really appreciate the work that they've put in, and the trust and support they have for each other" Weitz added. "The reading is a nice opportunity for them to share their work, but what it's really about is those many, many weeks when we just came together to write."

vistart is crap so far don't even bother....any skinpacks trigger smartscreen and the main exe wants to install crapware.
Classic shell.... can't change to custom button without it looking like crap.... it cuts the top and bottom off no matter what size it is... even tried using custom sizing....
I will now try the stardock solution.....
Ok, start 8 looks and feels the best so far.... very very nice. I have to say for 5 bucks to get that back isn't terrible... it's the price of a coffee or a premium android app. If they accept paypal without any problems I will get it.
got any others you can recommend?
It's funny how resistant to change people are and go as far as to say that the start screen actually hurts productivity. It takes the same amount of clicks to do anything other than the power menu, but how often do you use that power menu?
And then you all go so far to install all these programs and tweaks. What a waste of time. Just spend 5 minutes learning how to do it in Windows 8 and save a lot of frustration.

Whatever happened to the Jeep Cherokee?
Good question. It launched in the mid-'80s as a boxy off-roader, and did rather well over here as well as back home in the Land of the Free. But then it didn't have much opposition: the Freelander hadn't appeared and the German car makers still sneered at the idea of SUVs.
