Shocks, Bumpers, And More!
Prerunner Protection
Q I have an '01 Dodge Ram 1500 Sport, and I've looked everywhere to find a prerunner-style bumper for it. I want to make her look as cool as the new RamRunner package that Mopar is offering. My question comes out of concern for my radiator. Is it possible to find a prerunner bumper without sacrificing the safety of your daily driver? Will they protect my truck from minor bumps from light poles or the idiot doing burnouts in the parking lot of school? (I ask because I'm 16 and you know us teenage drivers). I love my truck, as it was a summer break project with my dad (bought it after it had minor crash). We put on new fenders, headlights, radiator, and a whole new front axle and hubs, so I want to keep her safe while having good looks.

A Check out Addictive Desert Designs (ADD), addictivedesertdesigns.com. The company has a prerunner bumper for your truck. I feel a prerunner front bumper will protect your truck just as well if not better than a factory bumper. Most factory bumpers are not really that heavy-duty, and a prerunner bumper like the ADD one is frame-mounted and built of tubing and a stout skidplate. I think it will be fine for daily use and off road abuse. Of course, any major collision can damage any type of bumper, so this must be taken within reason, but I see no reason why it won't help protect your truck and make it look better.
Sway Bumps?
Q I am building a '91 YJ. It has 42-inch Irocks and 1-ton axles. It is four-linked front and back with 14-inch Fox air shocks in the rear and 14-inch Radflo air shocks up front. What would be better: air bumps front and rear, or a sway bar like Currie's Antirock? I see some with just air bumps and some with just the sway bar. I'm still in the mockup stage of the build and don't know which one to go with. It will be strictly off-road. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Via firstname.lastname@example.com
A Air bumps (also known as nitrogen-charged bumpstops) and sway bars do very different things. This is like asking if you should add a winch or a trailer hitch; both are useful, but they don't do the same thing at all.
A sway bar is a torsion bar spring that is linked to the axles and the frame. Its sole purpose is to stabilize the vehicle against sway or body roll. As your suspension cycles up and down the sway bar moves freely, but as your suspension articulates (one tire moves up and the one on the other side of the axle moves down) the sway bar twists. This is a spring-loaded twist, and it will try and resist this articulation. The sway bar works throughout the suspension travel, constantly trying to keep the vehicle level over the axles for a more stable driving experience and even tire-to-ground pressure.
Some suspension designs are less prone to body roll than others, and some may not even need a sway bar. This is hard to determine without seeing your suspension work. It may be best to finish the vehicle without a sway bar, but leave room for it should you wish to add one later if you have significant body roll. The Currie Antirock Sway Bar is great for both on- and off-road use, and Currie has an informative video on its website about how they work: www.currieenterprises.com/cestore/antirock.asp.
Air bumps are designed to help control the compression damping of your suspension. They are often 2 or 4 inches long, and as the suspension compresses they hit the axle and slow down the last few inches of suspension travel. Inside the air bump is a small amount of oil and a nitrogen charge. As the suspension compresses and the axle begins to compress the air bump, the resistance ramps up very quickly to slow and stop the suspension movement. Consider air bumps a worst-case-scenario rescue that protects other components from crashing together if you take a big hit and compress the suspension fully.
Your air shocks are very similar to air bumps. In air shocks the nitrogen charge and large-diameter shock shaft work together and act like the shock and spring. It can also ramp up resistance in the last few inches of travel and acts similar to an air bump.
In your case with air shocks I would recommend the sway bar over the air bumps. Your air shocks can be tuned to act similar to air bumps in the final inches of compression. However, they are less likely to fight body roll or sway. If you were running a coil or coilover-shock type of suspension the air bumps would be more helpful, but you may still need a sway bar. I think in your case a sway bar is the smarter upgrade at this point.

Thats a good point. You can slam whatever size disk in the Smart that you want but as far as I know they just come with an empty bay. So its 60 bucks more for 1TB and 100 bucks for 2TB. I am one of the people that stream from a server so the internal storage is a non issue for me.

text: How to Eat a Healthy Diet In order to keep yourself in the best shape possible, it's essential to eat a healthy diet. Find out exactly what you should be eating on a regular basis.By Beth W. OrensteinMedically reviewed by Pat F. Bass III, MD, MPHIf you are what you eat, it follows that you want to stick to a healthy diet that's well balanced. "You want to eat a variety of foods," says Stephen Bickston, MD, AGAF, professor of internal medicine and director of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Center at Virginia Commonwealth University Health Center in Richmond. "You don't want to be overly restrictive of any one food group or eat too much of another." Healthy Diet: The Building Blocks The best source of meal planning for most Americans is the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Food Pyramid. The pyramid, updated in 2005, suggests that for a healthy diet each day you should eat: 6 to 8 servings of grains. These include bread, cereal, rice, and pasta, and at least 3 servings should be from whole grains. A serving of bread is one slice while a serving of cereal is 1/2 (cooked) to 1 cup (ready-to-eat). A serving of rice or pasta is 1/2 cup cooked (1 ounce dry). Save fat-laden baked goods such as croissants, muffins, and donuts for an occasional treat. 2 to 4 servings of fruits and 4 to 6 servings of vegetables. Most fruits and vegetables are naturally low in fat, making them a great addition to your healthy diet. Fruits and vegetables also provide the fiber, vitamins, and minerals you need for your body's systems to function at peak performance. Fruits and vegetables also will add flavor to a healthy diet. It's best to serve them fresh, steamed, or cut up in salads. Be sure to skip the calorie-laden toppings, butter, and mayonnaise, except on occasion. A serving of raw or cooked vegetables is equal to 1/2 cup (1 cup for leafy greens); a serving of a fruit is 1/2 cup or a fresh fruit the size of a tennis ball. 2 to 3 servings of milk, yogurt, and cheese. Choose dairy products wisely. Go for fat-free or reduced-fat milk or cheeses. Substitute yogurt for sour cream in many recipes and no one will notice the difference. A serving of dairy is equal to 1 cup of milk or yogurt or 1.5 to 2 ounces of cheese. 2 to 3 servings of meat, poultry, fish, dry beans, eggs, and nuts. For a healthy diet, the best ways to prepare beef, pork, veal, lamb, poultry, and fish is to bake or broil them. Look for the words "loin" or "round" in cuts of meats because they're the leanest. Remove all visible fat or skin before cooking, and season with herbs, spices, and fat-free marinades. A serving of meat, fish, or poultry is 2 to 3 ounces. Some crossover foods such as dried beans, lentils, and peanut butter can provide protein without the animal fat and cholesterol you get from meats. A ¼ cup cooked beans or 1 tablespoon of peanut butter is equal to 1 ounce of lean meat. Use fats, oils, and sweets sparingly. No diet should totally eliminate any one food group, even fats, oils, and sweets. It's fine to include them in your diet as long as it's on occasion and in moderation, Bickston says. Healthy Diet: Eat Right and the Right Amount How many calories you need in a day depends on your sex, age, body type, and how active you are. Generally, active children ages 2 to 8 need between 1,400 and 2,000 calories a day. Active teenage girls and women can consume about 2,200 calories a day without gaining weight. Teenage boys and men who are very active should consume about 3,000 calories a day to maintain their weight. If you're not active, you calorie needs drop by 400 to 600 calories a day. The best way to know how much to eat is to listen to your body, says Donald Novey, MD, an integrative medicine physician with the Advocate Medical Group in Park Ridge, Ill. "Pull away from the table when you're comfortable but not yet full. Wait about 20 minutes," he says. "Usually your body says, 'That's good.' If you're still hungry after that, you might want to eat a little more." Healthy Diet: Exercise Is Part of the Plan At the bottom of the new USDA food pyramid is a space for exercise. Exercise is an important component of a well-balanced diet and good nutrition. You can reap "fabulous rewards," says Dr Novey, just by exercising and eating "a healthy diet of foods that nature provides." Learn more in the Everyday Health Healthy Living Center.

Staff was very neutral and not sincere. Rooms were not perfectly clean. Internet was not working well. Breakfast was hostel quality and not pousada worthful. Location was nice, beautiful atmosphere. If the owners putting more effort in their clients and bring some extra service it can be a perfect spot.

My friend and I spent 5 days in Pousada Cachoeira and we loved it! It was so beautiful and everything very clean. The breakfast is the best with some home-made sweets by the owner a very nice lady. We stayed in a double room which was perfect for my friend and me. Air-con works perfectly and the bathroom was inside the room. We really liked the surrounding area as it was like being in the jungle! really beautiful! the location is very nice a bit separated from the beach so it is more peaceful!

It's in a beautiful setting. The rooms are charming, if a bit run down. Breakfast is tasty and served on an awesome outdoor patio. However, I really thought the service was poor. There was dirt blatantly lying on the bathroom counter. I'm not a clean freak by any means, but if they claim they clean the rooms daily they should actually clean them. You're not allowed fresh towels, even though they have laundry on the property. After 8pm there is no chance of finding any staff. Could be better.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Pousada Cachoeira, which offers good value for money. It is a relaxing and peaceful place in the middle of the beautiful green nature, yet only a 10 minute walk from the center of the town and the port. We appreciated the tasty breakfast on the fantastic patio/terrace. Also, the cozy little terrace with a hammock in front of our ensuite was lovely.

Very beautifully located in a lush tropical garden. We stayed in the private chalet next to the river. The sound of the river and the nature at night is so relaxing. The chalet was very cute with a double bed on the ground floor and another double bed on the 2nd floor. Owners are very friendly. Breakfast could be improved. In overall, I recommend this pousada.

Deadline shift will have profound impact; Bears' Emery gets to work
Story Highlights
Kyle Orton the perfect example of how later trade deadline can change the game
Phil Emery has begun to improve the Bears, but O-line remains a question mark
Thoughts on Nick Fairley; Quotes of the Week; Ten Things I Think I Think; more
Happy Memorial Day. I know for many of you, Memorial Day has become an extra day off, or the start of the summer. But it's a day on which we should spend a few moments remembering the million men and women who have died fighting for our country.
A bit of history: Memorial Day began as "Decoration Day'' in the 1860s, to honor the 625,000 soldiers who died in the Civil War. Think of that amazing number: The number of Civil War dead is more than the population of Wyoming today. The number of Civil War dead is 11 times the number of American troops who died in Vietnam. According to Yale historian David Blight, the first Decoration Day event was organized by freed African-American slaves in 1865 in Charleston, S.C., where a parade of 10,000, led by 3,000 black schoolchildren, took place to honor the dead around a racetrack that had been used as a burial ground. In 2010, some leading Charleston residents dedicated a memorial for the first Memorial Day -- so re-named in 1882 -- at a reflecting pool in the city.
There's been a Memorial Day parade in Ironton, Ohio, every year since 1868. In many towns, local veterans groups place a small American flag on the graves of everyone from town who died in any of the wars we've fought. If you've got a flag around your home, and can fly it at half-staff, the custom is to fly it that way until noon today, to commemorate the dead. For the rest of the day, fly it at regular height, noting that the fight for liberty continues.
There's your history lesson for today. Have a good day with your families, or wherever you are, and think of those who've sacrificed so we can lead the lives we do.
Before we get to football, I have one modern, tragic Memorial Day story for you.
A young woman named Marina Keegan died Saturday in a single-car accident in Dennis, Mass., on Cape Cod, five days after graduating from Yale. She was 22. She wrote for the Yale Daily News while a student there, and her writing was so good, so compelling, that the News included her column, "The Opposite of Loneliness,'' in a special edition of the paper distributed to all students and families at graduation. I urge you to read it.
You go to college for many reasons, the biggest of which is probably (but not definitely) to get trained for what you'll do for the rest of your life. But along the way you experience a collegial feeling that's hard to describe until you've been through it. And Marina Keegan writes about it as eloquently as I've read.
"More than finding the right job or city or spouse -- I'm scared of losing this web we're in,'' Keegan writes. "This elusive, indefinable, opposite of loneliness. This feeling I feel right now.''
"The first time I read the piece, I cried,'' the editor-in-chief of the Daily News, Max de La Bruyere, told me Sunday night. "As a professor of ours said today, 'Marina always spoke her mind. She was determined to always be herself.' She knew what she wanted to write, and she always wrote it so well. She was such a shining light. She found time to do so much. She was the president of the Yale College Democrats, which takes up quite a lot of time. She wrote fiction and non-fiction, and she wrote a full-length musical last summer. And this story about life at Yale was so beautiful. Thank God she left us with this.''
It's beautiful. Read it. It'll make you sad, but sadness is part of life too.
Stories like these got Marina Keegan an editorial assistant job at the New Yorker, which was she was due to start two weeks from today in Manhattan.
On the picnic table for your reading pleasure today (and just think -- you can read this while you're off, instead of stealing company time on a Monday morning to read):
The trade deadline was moved from Week 6 to Week 8 the other day. Had that been done in 2011, the course of current football history likely would have changed radically. And I mean "radically."
One hundred nights from tonight, football's back. Cowboys-Giants in New Jersey. Will Hakeem Nicks, the Eli Manning security blanket who has averaged 1,011 receiving yards per season in his career, be there? We shall see, but I am stunned how the event was covered in New York.
Meet Phil Emery, the Bears general manager. I'll try to educate you on an unknown but very significant football executive.
It shows my age, I suppose, but there was a shift in the media world order on Thursday, and no one paid it much mind. A major American city won't have a daily newspaper starting this fall.
Mike Tomlin won't be paying any bounties.
I'm no lawyer, though I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. But two thoughts on the union's collusion case against the NFL, claiming that the league's 32 teams conspired to artificially keep spending down in the uncapped year of 2010. One: I hope it gets an airing, because if a year was supposed to be uncapped, why were teams warned to stay within some fuzzy financial lines -- any financial lines -- and not dump salaries? An uncapped year should have been an uncapped year, with no restrictions. Two: Seems to me the union signed away all rights on claims of collusion last August, so I don't see this case having legs, even in the friendlier confines of the Minnesota court where it was filed.
We'll start with the rules change from last Tuesday that I assumed was meaningless. But you know what happens when you assume things.
The Kyle Orton Memorial Trade Deadline.
Owners agreed the other day to move the trading deadline from the day after the end of Week 6 to the day after the end of Week 8. Two weeks. I feel strongly the deadline should be around Dec. 1, to stimulate real action to help teams trying to win a division and to buttress with draft choices those teams out of the pennant race with four or five weeks to go.
But last year, there's a real chance that moving the deadline by two weeks -- from Oct. 18, the deadline, to Nov. 1, the day after the end of Week 8 -- would have netted the Indianapolis Colts Kyle Orton.
And if that had happened, and the Colts had won just one or two more games than they did, it would have resulted in Peyton Manning staying a Colt ... and Andrew Luck being drafted by somebody else.
The situation: Indianapolis coaxed Kerry Collins out of retirement in August, when Peyton Manning was having neck problems. Collins was the Colts' starter until he got a concussion in Week 3 against Pittsburgh, with Curtis Painter the backup. When Collins got concussed, the Colts signed Dan Orlovsky off the street. Painter started and the Colts hoped Collins would recover to take the starting job back. But after Week 7, with Collins' concussion symptoms lingering, the Colts cut him. By that time, with no trades possible, the Colts had to go with what they had, or pick up another body off the street.
"I think the deadline being moved last year would have made a difference for us,'' said Bill Polian, the Colts president until owner Jim Irsay fired him in January. "We would have rekindled our interest in Orton. In Week 6, we knew our quarterback situation wasn't great, but after a couple more weeks, we realized the situation was bad. We probably would have called Denver, who'd gone to [Tim] Tebow by then, and said, 'Hey, we'll give you a three [a third-round draft choice] for Orton.' ''
If that had happened, a source in the Broncos organization told me, Denver would have agreed to deal Orton. Denver had been in talks with Miami before the season for Orton, and would have dealt him to Miami for a fourth-round pick, but there were complications with that deal -- both because the Dolphins questioned whether Orton was a long-term answer, and in contract compensation. So if the Broncos would have taken a fourth-round pick for Orton before the season, they certainly would have taken a three for Orton after he'd been benched for Tebow.
Now, how much difference would Orton have made in the last eight games of the season, had he been dealt? Indianapolis went 2-6 with Painter and Orlovsky. In four of those eight games, the Colts threw for fewer than 130 net passing yards.
Polian is convinced Orton would have been responsible for at least another win or two ... perhaps in an offensively hapless 17-3 home loss to Jacksonville, or a 19-13 loss at Jacksonville, or an eight-point home loss to Carolina. Remember, the Colts played better on defense after firing coordinator Larry Coyer with five games left, and allowed fewer than 20 points in four of their last eight games. Orton's a very quick study. In his first start for Kansas City after being released by Denver, he completed 74.2 percent of his throws and beat the 13-0 Packers.
I agree with Polian: With Orton, the Colts would have been better than 2-6 in their last eight games. Two wins better, and they'd have held OTA practices for the last two weeks with Peyton Manning as their quarterback. That's because they'd have been 4-12, and tied, with a .531 opponents winning percentage, with Cleveland for the third overall draft pick. In that case, the first two picks in the draft would have gone to St. Louis (2-14) and Minnesota (3-13). Who would have traded up for Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III in that case, Washington and which other team? Or would Minnesota have fallen head over heels for Luck or Griffin and picked one of the QBs, even though the Vikes drafted Christian Ponder a year earlier?
It's all silly offseason speculation, but my point is this: It's still not ideal, making the deadline in midseason instead of later in the year, when teams on both sides of contention would be more motivated to make moves. But this one situation -- and maybe it's only one -- shows moving the deadline has the potential to have a profound impact on the future of the game.
One significant point on this deal. It's not set in stone yet. The management council and the Players Association have to agree on this before the season. It's expected they will, but with the relationship they've had of late, you never know.

Why Mitt Romney and Barack Obama Are Battling for the Rural Vote
Rural counties in battleground states could decide November's election.
Former Gov. Mitt Romney has spent almost his entire life in big cities. But if he is to win the election for president this November, he will have to learn to connect with voters from the farms and small towns of America.
In a year when popular and Electoral College votes both figure to be close, momentum in rural areas could spell the difference in a variety of states. This is not lost on either campaign.
It's why Romney will embark today on his "Every Town Counts" bus tour—a five-day, six-state journey that will take him to rural localities in the battleground states of New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Michigan.
[See a collection of political cartoons on Mitt Romney.]
Every little bit of face time with rural voters should help the former Massachusetts governor. President Barack Obama performed unusually well in rural areas in 2008. He lost to Republican Sen. John McCain by 8 percentage points—a huge step up after Sen. John Kerry lost to President George W. Bush by 19 points in 2004. President Obama's ability to carry key rural counties in Iowa, Colorado, and North Carolina helped lift him to victory.
Moreover, the president enjoyed uncommon success among white men—a key constituency in rural areas. He split the vote among white independents and claimed 43 percent of the total among white voters—levels of achievement not seen by Democrats since Jimmy Carter's election in 1976.
But things no longer look so bright for the president. Rural Americans, like their urban and suburban counterparts, said they voted based on the economy in 2008, and his policies have not helped them. Unemployment is at least a half-point higher in rural areas than urban areas. And, of the nation's more than 3,000 counties, about 30 percent now endure unemployment rates of 10 percent or higher and a good many of those are rural counties in 2012 battleground states such as North Carolina, Wisconsin, Michigan, Colorado, and Ohio.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the 2012 campaign.]
Worse, President Obama carried the Tar Heel State by 14,000 votes in 2008—his smallest margin of victory in any state. But 50 of the counties with the worst unemployment rates in the nation are in rural North Carolina, and 15 of those counties went for President Obama in 2008.
Obama's disapproval ratings exceed his approval ratings in Iowa and North Carolina, and polling shows races tightening considerably in other rural battleground states, such as Michigan and Wisconsin. Thus, Democrats have begun to worry that if he can't alter his economic message and change his campaign strategy, he could find himself in real trouble come November.
Yet, Governor Romney also has some work to do among rural voters before he can start to measure the White House drapes. Former Sen. Rick Santorum defeated him soundly in nearly every contest that involved large rural populations. Romney was 11 points better in metro areas than nonmetro areas. The United States Department of Agriculture divides America into nine classifications—from most urban to most rural. In 2008, Romney captured the two most urban classifications against John McCain. McCain carried the other seven. [Check out our editorial cartoons on President Obama.]
McCain lost in 2008 in large part not because rural areas went for Obama but because an unenthusiastic rural electorate stayed home. Romney's bus tour and subsequent appeals are designed to assure those voters turn out in 2012.
To do this, he must keep it simple. He must outline a cogent, understandable economic plan that rewards private initiative and limits government regulation. He must promise to nurture the domestic energy production boom—oil, coal, and natural gas—that has brought new wealth to North Dakota, north Louisiana, and elsewhere. He must connect to patriotism and the military—a significant number of rural families have members who serve or have served. And he must demonstrate his commitment will extend beyond Election Day and through all four years of his term.
If he can do these things, if he can connect with rural Americans, if he can run up the kind of margins George W. Bush did in 2004 and perhaps flip states such as Michigan, rural America could be a real "Electoral College game changer" says Mark Halperin of Time magazine.
If Romney succeeds, it could well be rural America that pushes him over the top and into the White House.

Rickett Tabbed as Moe's Athlete of the Week Winner
DAHLONEGA, GA - Jacob Rickett has been named the Moe's Southwest Grill North Georgia Athlete of the Week after leading the Saints to a weekend series win over Augusta and a spot in next month's PBC Tournament. Rickett is the first two-time winner of this weekly award during the 2010-11 year.
As the Peach Belt Conference leader in saves with 11, Jacob Rickett put together one of the most impressive pitching performances in North Georgia history on Sunday afternoon, as he came out of the pen for 8.0 innings of relief work to clinch a spot for the Saints in the upcoming PBC Tournament.
In a must-win game to reach the conference tournament, Rickett allowed just four hits and no earned runs, while striking out 12 to earn his 5th victory of the season. Having never pitched more than 3.0 consecutive innings in his career, Rickett came on in the second inning and escaped a bases loaded no out situation without a run scoring, before going the distance in a 5-3 victory.
The Cumming, Ga., native has an earned run average of 1.78 in 35.1 innings of work on the season, and is averaging 1.5 strikeouts per inning.
Rickett and the Saints return to action on Tuesday evening, welcoming Emory University to town for a prime time 7:00 p.m. first pitch, before King College makes their way to Bob Stein Stadium over the weekend.

ECU wins at WAITTA
Tuesday, 10 April 2012
Winning students Huda Minhaj, Tyson Wolker, Laurence Da Luz, and Arickho Garcia
An app developed by ECU students that transforms a smartphone into an emergency beacon has won a prestigious WA Information Technology Telecommunications Award (WAITTA).
Bachelor of Computer Science students Laurence Da Luz, Tyson Wolker, Huda Minhaj and Arickho Garcia took out the Student Project Category for their innovative app.
ECU's secau Security Research Centre also received top honours, with researchers David Cook, Krishnun Sansurooah and Patrtyk Szewczyk winning the Service Delivery and Training category for their project, Seniors Identity Training (SIT).
The student-designed app was developed under guidance from the WA Police and ECU's School of Computer and Security Science supervisors, Dr Martin Masek, Associate Professor Peng Lam and Dr Chang Su Lee.
It was developed in response to a need from police for more accurate search and rescue information.
"The app uses your phone to send an automated GPS location to rescuers giving them the best chance at finding survivors who are lost at land or at sea," student Laurence said.
"We are really excited with our win and look forward to working with the WA Police to ensure that the app is available on the WA market in the near future."
The app has a number of unique features, including:
- Providing travellers with a set of 'before you go tips' from survival expert Bob Cooper, ensuring they are as prepared as possible before they leave;
- At the push of a button sending GPS coordinates to search and rescue services, as well as the traveller's phone contacts list;
- Providing travellers with a 'what to do in an emergency' survival guide;
- Acting as a light source which is detected by night vision equipment in police helicopters up to four kilometres away.
The SIT program has successfully trained over 2800 seniors to date, giving them practical examples of how to stay safe online. The program educates senior citizens in a range of areas including identity theft, online banking protection and information security.
The win has given secau the title of most significant ICT training program for 2011-2012, beating programs from private enterprise, government and industry.
'Seniors Identity Training is vital to Senior Novice Computer Users because it empowers them to engage with a digital world that was previously seen as off-limits," Mr Cook said.
For more information on the smartphone app visit the ECU website. More information on the SIT training program can be obtained by contacting David Cook.
A full list of nominees can be viewed via the WAITTA webpage.

Try the Entomatadas which Polvo's claims was Pancho Villa's favorite.
Best Drunk in Austin – $20 pitchers of Everclear-based margaritas? Can I get a hell yes? Totally worth the 20-minute wait. The parking lot gets crowded, but that's a good sign, to me.
Food OK, but charging me for chips when you bring them – Wow a Mexican restaurant in Texas chargign for chips and salsa that the bus boy brings. Not a good thing. and that is why I probably wont be back. Call me picky. The food was good.I ordered the Migas ( ehh) but the sides that came with it were MUCH better. Can I have an order of beans and potatoes?? I only went in becauase every place around them was crowded adn I was starving.
Authentic, generous portions – This place is authentic, fun and very tasty. Though the service leaves something to be desired, the salsa bar keeps your mouth busy while you wait for your food and drinks. They have a array of salsas to choose from, and the chile con queso is delicious.
There is an outdoor seating area, shaded from the sun but just as festive as the interior of the restaurant. The drinks are refreshing, the authentic food is served in generous portions for the price-tag, and the overall experience is enjoyable. I can easily see myself frequenting this place.
I truly do not understand why this place is as popular – The place is dilapidated. Their service is the worst that I have ever experienced in a restaurant. The chips and salsa are watery. I only tried this place because my girlfriend insisted how great it was, but I would never eat here again….
So many better options for in Austin for this style food try – Vivo, Gueros, Baby A's
Anything but this place!
Salsa Bar Heaven – All my Latin American friends and clients praise the authenticity of the food and enjoyed their drinks as well.
Got sick after eating at Polvos – Both my wife and I got sick after eating there. Several years ago we were regulars and enjoyed their food, but after hugging the toilet today we won't be returning.
Yummy roasted red pepper salsa – Read several reviews about the poor service, and couldn't disagree more. In a town where I've come to count on crappy to nonexistent service (yeah, pretty much everywhere), I feel pretty well cared for here. Water and Margarita refills were regular, more chips were offered, and meals showed fairly promptly considering how busy it was. One of the few places I've been where the appetizer showed up as an appetizer as opposed to with the meal.
The house margaritas are potent, and there are many flavors to choose from if the standard doesn't suit your taste. The queso is fair, and you can dress it up with the sides provided. So far, I've tried the Chilaquiles, chicken fajitas, Entomotades (sp?), and a shrimp/corn/mushroom fajita whose name I do not remember. All were excellent. The roasted pepper salsa (salsa bar is free, perhaps that has changed over time since a previous reviewer said otherwise) is excellent. Prices are reasonable as well.
Enjoy, just expect to have to walk a short distance since the lot is always full.
not what it used to be :-{ – i have been a patron of polvo's since they opened but it seems they have compromised their quality with all the influx of business they have enjoyed. not horrible, not great, i still go occasionally for the dive atmosphere but have discovered sago and it's really amazing.
If i could give it zero stars I would! – My boyfriend and i went to polvos for lunch today. We sat outside, took about 5 minutes to get two half empty glasses of water. Waited another 15 minutes, still no service we left. What made it worse was the we watched 3 waiters talk to each other and stand around the WHOLE time we were sitting. I called, they told me the manager was busy, to call back. I called back a waiter named Jackson got on the phone and told me too bad he had to go check on his tables. Judging from the lack of service when we were sitting i think it was MORE LIKELY HE WENT TO SMOKE than actually help a customer. I live in 78704 used to love polvos. I will never go back. I recommend you stay far far away. Try Torchy's tacos down the street. We did and it was much better! Polvos is the worst service in Austin.

Spencer Piquard was unhittable last Thursday night for the Belleville Junior Legion 1, tossing a no-hitter in a 9-0 win over Alton.
Piquard did not allow a pair of walks to open the game bother him, as he retired 15 batters in a row before allowing another walk.
After issing that walk to start the sixth inning, Piquard fanned two of the next three hitters.
When asked if he knew what was going on, Piquard responded by saying, "I started to realize what was going on about the fourth inning."
Piquard is the first member of his family to throw a no-hitter after big brother Luke Piquard played three seasons in the legion program.
Piquard was asked if he was nervous in the seventh and final inning, "Of course I was, I've never been that close to anything like that."
The most important thing to Piquard was that his mom and dad were both in attendance.
Manager Corey Muendlein and pitching coaches Tyler Rybicki and Sam Lidosky had planed to get another pitcher warmed up in the first, after Piquard threw 10 straight balls.
Instead, Piquard saw the bench stirring and started pouring the strikes across the plate.
Muendlein was just as nervous, if not more nervous, than Piquard as he paced the entire seventh inning and was begging for every close pitch.
Defense also played a key role in the no hitter, as the Hilgards did not commit an error in 17 chances. Matty Klosterman made his first start at third in the contest, and cleanly fielded all five ball hits his direction, including one he turned into the final out of the game.
Sam Haudrich got the Hilgards offense going early with a triple to lead off the game.

New Concrete Furniture From Holmes Wilson
Some of the pieces are very plain, while others are embossed with impressions of leaves and other botanicals. Some table options have wood or steel bases, while others are entirely concrete, giving the impression of a functional kind of sculpture.
Here are a few favorites (pictured above, left to right):
• 1 The Yer Lounge Chair is sleek and contemporary, but would also be at home in a rustic space. We can just imagine how it would soak up the sun and feel warm for lounging even on days when it's not exactly lie-out weather.
• 2 The gorgeous botanical detail on the Pliny End Table is customizable, but we love all the existing examples shown here. A set of these as garden stools would be divine.
• 3 Likewise, the Hand-built Table would also be amazing as a seat or a place to rest your cocktail out on the patio. The rough texture is refreshingly different from the usual smooth poured concrete look.
• 4 The pale gray color of the Sophie Chair would be beautiful with, say, a reclaimed wood table.
• 5 A mixture of colors and shapes in these Concrete Seats would be such a fun look in a modern garden with lots of grasses and whimsical plant choices.
To see the full collection and get pricing information, check out the Holmes Wilson website.

once the sun will hit those lounge "chairs" they will be scorching HOT! and the chair reminds me of what they've had in the Soviet parks...meh
I don't think so...
Concrete is not asphalt. It becomes comfortably warm.
Yer means 'Earth' in Turkish. The earth is cool!
I'm curious about weight for the Pliny end tables and the concrete seats.
I like the end tables and could see using them indooors, but wonder if they are very heavy. (I have to lug everything up three flights.)
The seats are hallow and tend to be 50lbs or slightly less.

Indications and Usage for Victoza® (liraglutide [rDNA origin] injection)
Victoza® (liraglutide [rDNA origin] injection) is an injectable prescription
medicine that may improve blood sugar (glucose) in adults with type 2 diabetes when
used along with diet and exercise.
Victoza® is not recommended as the first medication
to treat diabetes. Victoza® has not been studied
in patients with history of inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). Victoza® is not a substitute for insulin and has not been
studied in combination with prandial (mealtime) insulin. Victoza®
is not for people with type 1 diabetes or people with diabetic ketoacidosis. It
is not known if Victoza® is safe and effective in
children. Victoza® is not recommended for use in
Important Safety Information
In animal studies, Victoza® caused thyroid tumors—including thyroid
cancer—in some rats and mice. It is not known whether Victoza® causes
thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid cancer (MTC)
in people, which may be fatal if not detected and treated early. Do not use Victoza®
if you or any of your family members have a history of MTC or if you have Multiple
Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). While taking Victoza®,
tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble
swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer.
Do not use Victoza® if you are allergic to liraglutide or any of the ingredients
in Victoza®. Serious allergic reactions can happen with Victoza®. If symptoms of
serious allergic reactions occur, stop taking Victoza® and seek medical attention.
Pancreatitis may be severe and lead to death. Before taking Victoza®, tell your
doctor if you have had pancreatitis, gallstones, a history of alcoholism, or high
blood triglyceride levels since these medical conditions make you more likely to
get pancreatitis.
Stop taking Victoza® and call your doctor right away if you have
pain in your stomach area that is severe and will not go away, occurs with or without
vomiting, or is felt going from your stomach area through to your back. These may
be symptoms of pancreatitis.
Before using Victoza®, tell your doctor about all the medicines you
take, especially sulfonylurea medicines or insulin, as taking them with Victoza®
may affect how each medicine works. If you use Victoza® with insulin,
you may give both injections in the same body area (for example, your stomach area),
but not right next to each other.
Also tell your doctor if you have severe stomach problems such as slowed emptying
of your stomach (gastroparesis) or problems with digesting food; have or have had
kidney or liver problems; have any other medical conditions; or are pregnant or
plan to become pregnant. Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed.
It is unknown if Victoza® will harm your unborn baby or if Victoza®
passes into your breast milk.
Your risk for getting hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, is higher if you take Victoza®
with another medicine that can cause low blood sugar, such as a sulfonylurea or
insulin. The dose of your sulfonylurea medicine or insulin may need to be lowered
while taking Victoza®.
Victoza® may cause nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea leading to dehydration,
which may cause kidney failure. This can happen in people who have never had kidney
problems before. Drinking plenty of fluids may reduce your chance of dehydration.
The most common side effects with Victoza® include headache, nausea,
and diarrhea. Nausea is most common when first starting Victoza®,
but decreases over time in most people. Immune system related reactions, including
hives, were more common in people treated with Victoza® compared
to people treated with other diabetes drugs in medical studies.

CARSON CITY — Nevada won't automatically accept expanding Medicaid coverage as called for under the federal health care law, Gov. Brian Sandoval said Thursday after the U.S. Supreme Court ruling left open the possibility that states could opt out of the requirement without jeopardizing all of its Medicaid funding.
"Given what we know today, the governor does not intend to automatically accept the Medicaid expansion," Mary-Sarah Kinner, Sandoval's press secretary, said in a statement.
"These serious budgetary implications, including the impact on education spending, require further analysis — not just of the next biennial budget but of the long-term costs."
While the high court's decision upheld the individual mandate that people could be required to purchase health insurance or pay a tax, it also said states cannot lose existing Medicaid funding if they don't increase their Medicaid coverage levels for adults.
The governor's office says more information is needed from the federal government before deciding how Nevada will proceed.
"The Supreme Court's decision indicates states will have an option to expand Medicaid, but additional guidance is needed in order to understand the penalties for not expanding the Medicaid program and we must determine if there are savings to the general fund by shifting existing costs to the federal government," Kinner's statement said. "We will continue to examine today's opinion to fully understand its implications."
Earlier in the day, Sandoval, a first-term Republican who was critical of the law, said he may not agree with the decision, but he respects the process.
"The implications for Medicaid costs are still unclear, but Nevada will prepare to meet the serious financial implications of this decision," Sandoval said in a statement. "I believe the Congress should act to reform this law and ease the serious burdens it places on the states and the nation's businesses.
Later during an interview on KRNV-TV's Nevada Newsmakers program, Sandoval said expanding Medicaid eligibility may require cutting education funding and "other horrible things."
"As I sit here today, it wouldn't be my intention to opt in," he said.
An estimated 563,000 Nevadans lack health insurance, roughly 21 percent of the population, according to 2010 statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau.
Part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to take effect in 2014 would expand eligibility for more people to be covered under Medicaid, a safety net for the poor. State officials previously estimated that provision would cost Nevada $575 million over the first five years.
About 308,000 Nevadans are currently enrolled in the Medicaid program. State officials anticipate another 49,000 currently eligible but not enrolled will sign up as a result of the mandate to have insurance, increasing the cost by at least $60 million in the next budget cycle.
Additionally, the number of children covered under Nevada Check Up, an insurance program for needy children, is expected to grow by 20,000, even without expanding eligibility, at a cost of $11 million.
The federal law creates a new class of adults between the ages of 19 and 64 who are eligible for Medicaid and expands other criteria, such as relaxing the income eligibility to 133 percent of the federal poverty level. According to the Foundation for Health Care Coverage Education, that income threshold is currently $30,657 for a family of four.
Assemblywoman Debbie Smith, D-Sparks, said she has asked legislative staff and fiscal analysts to review the ruling and brief an interim legislative committee in August.
"We need to take our time, we need to have our staff fully understand the decision," Smith said. "Are there variables in there? I don't know that.
"We don't want to rush into some kind of a statement on what we think before we've had a chance to fully understand the decision."
Mark Hutchison, a private lawyer who championed Nevada's case against the health care law by joining the lawsuit filed by 26 other states and a business group, said the court's position on the Medicaid provision puts the issue of whether to expand coverage for the poor in the lap of the state and the Legislature "where it belongs."
Hutchison, a state Senate candidate, said he was surprised the court upheld the constitutionality of the law.
"I don't think anybody expected it to go this way," he said.
Around the state, reaction to the long anticipated ruling was mixed along party lines, guaranteeing it will remain a hot issue in the November election.
"No one thinks this law is perfect," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said on the Senate floor, calling on Republicans to "stop refighting yesterday's battles" and declaring that the health care debate "is settled."
But his Republican colleague, Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev., took aim and pledged to fight for its repeal.
"This law has now been affirmed as a colossal tax increase on the middle class, and its excessive regulations are stripping businesses of the certainty they need to hire at a time when Nevadans and the rest of the country are desperate for jobs," he said.
"This onerous law needs to be repealed and replaced with market-based reforms that will provide greater access, affordability and economy certainty to our nation," he said.
Repeal was the mantra of Republican officials and candidates.

Oceanic Veo 100 Nx Combo Dive Computer - Air/Nitrox Dive Console
Full-Featured Air or Nitrox Personal Dive Computer in a compact package.The Oceanic Veo 100 Nx coordinates carefully arranged information with our trademark ease-of-use, oversized digits , bar graphs, and intuitive icons. Loaded with features but still very user friendly with a single operating button.
Full-Featured Air or Nitrox Personal Dive Computer in a compact package.The Oceanic Veo 100 Nx coordinates carefully arranged information with our trademark ease-of-use, oversized digits , bar graphs, and intuitive icons. Loaded with features but still very user friendly with a single operating button.
SWIV Console Introducing the new standard in modular instrument systems.The all-new SWIV Console provides complete flexibility over how your instruments are configued. An allen key and a twist of the wrist allows you to position your gauges to meet your diving style. The SWIV Navcon is a three gauge console.
Choose Your Dive Mode DisplayThe Veo 100 Nx is as versatile underwater as it is topside. Upon starting your dive, the Veo 100 NX will simply display your current depth and how long you can stay there (Dive Time Remaining). While many divers have asked for such simplicity and ease of use, you know that with all the Veo 100 Nx's features, there must be more. And there is. Simply press the button to see more information. Is this information important to you on a full time basis? Leave it there. Just want to check it and then move on to another display? You can do that too. It's up to you and your new Veo 100 Nx.
Dive Time RemainingDive Time Remaining provides a 'real' number in minutes, considering Nitrogen and Oxygen absorption, and automatically displays whichever allows less time.
Oversized DigitsTake the Oceanic challenge: When shopping for a new dive computer, compare the displays. When it comes to viewing critical information, which would you rather see at 100 feet?
"Hockey Puck" Modular DesignAllows easy upgrade from most analog gauge or computer consoles. This innovative modular design allows versatile configurations from our Swiv Combo or NavCon consoles, wrist mount, hose-mount boot, or a retractor attached to your BC.
Air or NitroxThe Veo 100 Nx acts simply as an 'Air' computer until you tell it otherwise, whether that is this weekend or 2 years down the road.
Oceanic Personal Dive Computer AlgorithmDecompression theory can be trusted only as far as it has been demonstrated by actual test dive data. In 1987 a unique series of experiments were conducted by Diving Science and Technology (DSAT). Commissioned by the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI), these Doppler ultrasound monitored human experiments conducted by Dr. Michael Powell produced the most comprehensive data set that exists for recreational divers to this day. These data were used to validate the PADI Recreational Dive Planner and are the basis of the algorithm used in all Oceanic Personal Dive Computers (PDCs).
"The Ultimate Adjustable Algorithm"That's the way divers, instructors and Authorized Dealers refer to Oceanic PDCs. Our tissue loading bar graphs provide complete control of your margin of safety for each dive. Want to be a bit more cautious? Make it a personal rule to never enter into the caution zone; or stay one or more pixel away.
Safety Stop Prompt with Adjustable Depth and TimeAn automatic visual prompt reminds you as you approach your programmed no decompression safety stop depth and an automatic timer counts down to zero. As in any other dive mode, you still have access to other pieces of information, and there is no penalty should you choose to disregard the safety stop.
Time StampThe Veo 100 Nx features time of day on the surface as well as underwater for quick reference.
Automatic Altitude CompensationThe Veo 100 Nx automatically compensates for altitude dives up to 14,000 feet, giving adjusted no-decompression times and depths. The Veo 100 Nx even automatically recalibrates the depth displays for freshwater instead of seawater above 2,000 feet.
Diver-Replaceable BatteriesThe Veo 100 Nx featurea a diver replaceable battery. This can be a real trip-saver on board a live-aboard boat!
Battery Hot SwapShould you be in a tight spot between dives, the "hot-swap" feature allows you to change batteries between dives while maintaining all calculations.
24-Hour Fly Countdown and Calculated Desaturation TimeThe Veo 100 Nx features both a 24-hour countdown timer and calculated Desaturation Time, the theoretical time required to off-gas all residual nitrogen at sea level.
Depth-Dependent Ascent RateThe Veo 100 Nx features a depth-dependant ascent rate, allowing increased rates at deeper depths and providing additional safety as you near the surface.
12 Dive On-Unit Log BookThe Veo 100 Nx features on-unit data storage capacity for 12 dives. Dive numbering and time stamp makes locating and viewing a specific dive quick and easy.
Gauge ModeDivers using advanced breathing gas may utilize the Veo 100 Nx as an advanced air integrated digital depth gauge and bottom timer with detailed PC Interface.
FO2The Veo 100 Nx acts simply as an 'Air' computer until you tell it otherwise, whether that is this weekend or 2 years down the road. As your training and experience grow, the Veo 100 Nx is designed to grow with you, being easily programmed for Nitrox mixtures from 21% to 50%.
FO2 50% Default On/OffFollowing a Nitrox dive, many dive computers calculate your next dive based on a "worse-case scenario", mix of 50% Oxygen and 79% Nitrogen should you forget to reset your actual mix. With FO2 50% Default OFF, your mix remains at the original set point until you change it again.
Maximum PO2 Level Alarm (Nitrox)When diving Nitrox, do you prefer your maximum PO2 exposure to be 1.2 ATA? 1.6 ATA? Depending on where you learned and your own personal comfort zone, the answer may be very different from diver to diver. The Veo 100 Nx lets you set your own limit.
Water Activation On/OffThe Veo 100 Nx automatically enters Dive Mode when the water contacts are wet, and the unit is submerged past 4 feet. To avoid this when swimming or enjoying other water sports, simply set Water Activation Off.
