First we draw, Then we Crawl
I've gotten the letters and I've heard the harassment while on the trail. Yes, I am still building Project Fun Buggy. It's just taking a little while, but here is another installment of the buildup that began over a year ago (Aug. '05). The idea for this tube buggy is an all-terrain vehicle that doesn't have a conventional body but rather is built for optimum fun off road. Though my buildup uses premium parts, it can be duplicated with a junkyard drivetrain on a reasonable budget.
To recap, we started by building front and rear steering axles with Dynatrac Pro-rock Dana 60 centersections, Reid Racing (formerly Dedenbear) end forgings and knuckles, 40-spline Superior shafts, CTM U-joints, and Detroit Lockers (Aug. '05). In addition we used Yukon 5.38 gears with 35-spline pinions, and high-steer arms from OTT. I then went to Scoggin-Dickey and assembled a fuel-injected GM Performance Parts ZZ383 small-block V-8 (Sept. '05). This engine uses an ACCEL DFI fuel-injection system and was dyno'd at just over 400 hp and just shy of 500 lb-ft of torque. Following that, the mil-spec green Mastercraft suspension seats and 17-inch Walker Evans Racing bead-lock wheels were added (Oct. '05). And then there was a lapse until our February 2006 issue where I discussed tubing and showed the difference between HREW, DOM, and chromoly tubing and the fact that I am using about 300 feet of DOM 1 3/4-inch x 0.120 wall tubing for the majority of my project. Then everything fell apart.
From the start of this project I wanted to work with a fabrication shop that could walk me through the steps of the design and buildup. I ended up at Poly Performance in San Luis Obispo, California. Poly has been selling parts for the home tube-buggy builder for five years and has a fabrication shop that does everything from coilover conversions for Jeep TJs to full chassis buildups.
To get everything moving I took my drivetrain parts to Poly and began the extended design, and that is what this month's story is all about. Now I was assuming we would simply park the parts on the shop floor and begin bending tube around it, but boy was I wrong. The team at Poly Performance takes a different approach by measuring every drivetrain component and suspension part, then drawing them up on the computer. This way they can get an initial layout before any tube is bent. It takes longer this way (way longer), and most of us can't duplicate these steps exactly, but similar procedures can be done with pencil and graph paper. Of course I was going crazy trying to get my buggy project moving, but the best advice for a project this big it to have a solid overall plan for the entire vehicle. Though some fabricators can whip a chassis out in their sleep, these drawings made it much easier once the dirty work finally began, and can keep the wasted tube to a minimum. This process also allows many different configurations to be explored before a final design is set.

sounds like a nice book, and in colour, great. But i can't see any info about the book on their site. Thanks for the info Franny
'Elvis In A Minnesota Minute' new MRS book release: The MRS label will publish its first standalone book as a limited edition only release. The 9 x 11 inch hardback book contains 100 pages in full color gloss print, featuring the photographic works of Tim Healy in Minneapolis, Minnesota at the Elvis Presley show on October 17, 1976.
As the Minneapolis Tribune reported at the time, Elvis is in as good shape as ever and, of course, as a performer on stage, singing or just fooling around, he has more charisma than a dozen other top performers combined. Will Elvis endure? Judging by the screams of the audience he's in no trouble.With Elvis slimmed down and performing better than earlier in the year, Tim Healys exclusive photographs manage to visually capture Elvis new-found enthusiasm effortlessly and in an uncannily realistic way.
MRS are proud to release this new look at Elvis in 1976 and all the photographs contained in the book are completely unreleased.
The upcoming FTD release of A Minnesota Moment front cover (out on 15th February), is also the work of Tim Healy.
This book will only be limited to 1500 copies worldwide and will be released on 15th February.
It will be a nice combination that coincides with the FTD fan club CD.
A news update on the soon to be released MRS release 'Off Duty With Private Presley' coming soon.
Go here for more information on MRS Elvis releases.

"We knew the last game that time we played [Wisconsin] we had the game in our grasp," said Andre Hollins who scored a game-high 21 points. "We knew it was going to be another tough game but this time we toughed it out mentally. We had positive mental attitude even though we were down."
Following Evans' free throw, the Gophers held Wisconsin (17-8, 8-4) scoreless for the remainder of regulation, missing six shots and turning the ball over three times. The most crucial of these giveaways took place as Wisconsin had a two-point lead with just 22 seconds left. Minnesota native Mike Bruesewitz attempted to inbound the ball but shuffled his feet, giving the ball to the Gophers with a chance to tie.
Joe Coleman made the most of the opportunity, driving into the lane and drawing a foul where he headed to the line with a chance to tie the game. Although he was shooting just 50 percent from the line on the night, the sophomore wing calmly hit both free throws, sending the game to overtime tied 49-49.
"I think that was big," said Rodney Williams. "We had a lot of trust in Joe and he went up there, a young kid in a big environment like this, and he stepped up big and made two of the most clutch free throws in his career."
With the momentum in their favor, the Gophers started overtime where they left off in regulation. With the score still tied, Andre Hollins rose up over the defense and knocked down a three to give the Gophers a lead.
"My teammates did a great job setting screens for me and when I come open, I draw two defenders and that left Rodney and Trevor [Mbakwe] open to grab the rebound," he said. "I had to put the ball up because I trust my teammates to get the rebound if I miss."
Holding the lead, Minnesota was able to continue their impressive defensive performance, holding Wisconsin to just 1-of-10 shooting in overtime and not allowing the Badgers to score until two Sam Dekker free throws with just 1:20 left in the extra period, a scoreless streak of almost 8:48.
"Our defense wins game," said Mbakwe. "We definitely had some key stops in the last nine minutes of the game and we were able to take it to overtime."
In their recent losses, the Gophers have struggled on the defensive end, something they needed to correct in order to top their rivals.
"It was just buckling down and doing what we've been taught," said Austin Hollins. "We've been playing D all year and we've fell off a little bit on our defense but it's something that we work on all the time so it's just a matter of picking it back up."

Day 1 Part 2 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
So I turn left off of 92nd St onto Orchard Thursday night at 5:30, and I see My-Sugar-Na waving lines of cars onto our yard. The State Fair is in full swing. This is our fourth Fair in West Allis, and we've never had more than a couple of cars parking in our yard the first day, so this was
a little quite unexpected. I didn't even have time to change clothes, I opened up the garage doors, quickly shoved a couch (Side note; we bought this beautiful sofa sleeper from a friend a couple of weeks ago and we couldn't get it into the family room. No way it gets through the back door, so we went through the living room... damn swinging dining room door. Couldn't get it off of its swinger, so now it sits in the garage until I can figure out how to get that door off. Ticks me off, too, as the money from the couch came out of my Vegas fund. [Special double side note; did I mention that in June I managed to get a round trip ticket to Vegas for the weekend of November 7 for only $138? I couldn't NOT buy that ticket. Now I have three more months to save up to the amount of money I want to take. Having a 2-Benjamin couch in my garage is a contraindication.]) up against a wall and quickly slid some bikes into the storage locker. I no sooner had the garage cleaned out when a Foreigner fan parked her SUV there.
Day 2 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
Rain, rain. Go away. Now, dammit.
Day 3 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
So when it finally stopped pouring and degraded to a summer shower, the traffic in the neighborhood started to trickle in. My-Sugar-Na and I started parking cars around 2:00 PM (In contrast, by 11:30 AM on the first Saturday in 2007 I already had about half a dozen). We had ran a couple of errands in the early afternoon, and though Mitten did park one car, there really wasn't the crush of traffic that I had expected.
Day 4 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
First, let's dispatch the preliminaries. Casa de James housed one automobile on the first Sunday of the State Fair. Uno. Eine. In about five hours of sitting alone outside waiting for that rush to start at any time...
Day 5 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
Well, it isn't the weather that exclusively dictates the Home Game version of the Milwaukee Mile infield. I got home from work, thinking that the nicer weather would draw many more to the Fair. I must have been wrong as the neighborhood was again devoid of traffic, and the James Gang car park tally remains at 34 cars in five days.
Day 6 Part 1 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
Welcome to both of you that navigated over here from the JS Online home page, clicked the link under the Newswatch section on the right side (above the fold) that's called "Read More From Our News Partners". MyCommunityNOW editor Mark Maley was fascinated enough by this content that he is linking by blog for the remainder of the State Fair (unless he didn't like that picture. In the event the link is removed, pretend you didn't read this paragraph and continue after the break).
Day 6 Part 2 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
After arriving home at work, changing clothes and parking the 11th car (and last) on our property by 6:00 PM, My-Sugar-Na walked to the State Fair. I knew it was Crazy Grazin' day, and I knew my wife had some stuff she had wanted to try.
Day 7 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
Honestly, there isn't a lot to report about from my point of view on Wednesday. My-Sugar-Na took a day off of work, and had six cars parked by the time I got home from work (but that's not the reason you took a day off, is it honey?) Shortly after Mitten and Gooey were dropped off, they were able to park one more for a daily total of seven, and a seven-day total of 55.
Day 8 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
What is the A-#1 issue in the United States right now? (No, not euthanizing old people. It's the economy.) I've been waiting to read anything in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel about the State Fair and the attendance. Granted, a la Summerfest, actual daily attendance is not divulged. But the reporters don't even appear to allude to the crowds being larger, smaller, etc. The daily food-on-a-stick reports were cute for a couple of days, but that can't be the only daily story (oh, I forgot about the cute-kids reports and farmers-and-their-animals stories.)

Day 10 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
Last night (Saturday night) was the annual birthday party for my immediate family - parents, siblings and spouses (and hangers-on like Revvy Al and Jendy Wo). Instead of the 12 of us going to a birthday party dinner every few weeks, we've consolidated it into one dinner a year that we spend more on than what we should.
Day 11 - State Fair Blog done (Sponsor's Name Here)-style
(Side note; I apologize for posting this 12 hours late. One could say that I wanted Laura to post first so I would be on top of the stack again [Laura, I kid because I love], but the truth is I got caught up in the "You didn't save early, save often" predicament. I had typed the whole thing out, opened up a new browser window to get the links that everybody so loves, and when I got back, I had a "session timed out" message. Now, we bloggers get five hours before our session logs out, and it took me about a half hour to type my entry, so I had no reason to think I should have saved first. Oh, well, live and learn. But the reality is that I already spent almost an hour at work pretending not to be blogging and I couldn't have taken more time to repost. OK, now to start over...)
Dorothy, we're not in 1984 anymore
Have you noticed that many '70s and '80s songs are being overplayed? I know that was a problem in the '80s, (Side note; face it, you had 'KTI, Z-95, B-97 and WRKR all playing the exact same, tight format) but it is kinda silly that it is happening in 2009. Some of my one-time favorite songs, like "Pour Some Sugar on Me" from Def Leppard, "Don't Stop Believing" from Journey, "More Than a Feeling" from Boston, "Livin' on a Prayer" by Bon Jovi, as well as songs that I never really liked, like "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper and "Keep on Loving You" by REO Speedwagon all fall into that category. As a matter of fact, just about all Def Leppard and Bon Jovi songs have become unlistentoable.

Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
A place for the discussion of all things not closely related to the sport and its competitive side. (as always, locked for the duration of major international championship)
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Jazz, you obviously are limited in some of the reading you have done, so maybe you should do so before making some of your comments. Try reading Hamilton's book. Some of the things I mentioned were elaborated in his book. You can choose to believe whether they are true or not, but can not insinuate that I am making this up.
Hamilton was clear in his book that Armstrong called the UCI and ratted him out about his blood doping because he had been told so by Armstrong's teammates. He was called in to discuss tests that had occurred by the UCI and was told they were watching him. This had nothing to do with the Fuentas screw-up that ultimately resulted in his being caught.
Hamilton also was clear about how after he started to surpass Armstrong in some of the tests they used to evaluate the doping / fitness combo that their relationship changed and Armstrong tried to procure more help from Ferrari for himself than he was giving others on his own team. After setting a record on their test climb, he was mocked by LA, Kristin Armstrong and others. He was starting to see success as evidenced by the Dauphine /Mt. Ventoux win in 2000. The change in their relationships stemming in part from Hamilton's newfound successes led to his decision to go to another team.
Novitzky told Hamilton he was deeply disappointed the federal case was dropped and was unsure why. Again, read the book. There is a good chance it was motivated by higher ups. If you believe that Armstrong has not tried to use his power and fame to come after USADA after this all started to go down you are grossly naive. The actions of those who tried to introduce legislation certainly was related to this case. They may not have been approached by LA Inc, but no doubt were influenced by they propoganda machine.
I also find it incredulous that people are deriding USADA so harshly. The rumors about Lance have been going on for over a decade and yet USADA was not actively pursuing him during any of this time. It was not until evidence was given to them after the federal investigation was closed that this happened with them. With the mountain of evidence they had, it would have been a dereliction of their duty NOT to follow through with this. All part of the LA propoganda machine to make it look like "poor old me".

Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
No shit? Now, that's funny .
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Odelltrclan, I haven't read Hamilton's book yet, but you haven't presented any new facts from it that I didn't already know. Bambam presented some new facts that I wasn't aware of last week but you haven't. Nor have you refuted my assertion that Hamilton was banned from cycling for flunking a mandatory test at the 2004 Olympics, not because he was ratted out to the UCI. All this other stuff about jealousy, pettiness, vindictiveness, alledgedly getting ratted out to the UCI, etc. may further fuel your contempt for Armstrong, but it's all idle specualtion, conjecture and gossip that has nothing to do with USADA's case against Amrstrong.
Furthermore, I find it amazing that as a sports fan, you seem surprised that Amrstrong, an alpha male, might feel threatened and not be such a gracious team leader when another alpha male appeared capable of challenging him for team leadership. I'm not saying that I take Hamilton's claims on this matter at face value, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if they were true. Sports in general, and cycling in particular, have a history of personality conflicts like this (eg. Hinault-LeMond, Riis-Ullrich, Montana-Young, Favre-Rogers, Bledsoe-Brady, O'Neal-Bryant, etc.) and the Armstrong-Hamilton situation predictably resolved itself when Hamilton left U.S. Postal to lead his own team, which is the way these situations always get resolved. Why do you think Mark Cavendish told Team Sky that he wants to leave the team? Why do you think Peyton Manning wanted off of the Colts once he found out they were drafting Andrew Luck? Do you think Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow get along like best buddies?
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
I never said Hamilton was banned for anything other than his failed tests. It is hardly an "assertion" when it is a statement of fact. What isn't a fact was that the UCI called and had a meeting with Hamilton earlier in the year before this to discuss blood issues and that they were going to keep an eye on him, and that they (his assertion) was that were notified by Armstrong. Show me where Bambam discusses this?
Secondly, I am not surprised by anything Armstrong did. I discussed it because, if it were true, it reveals more about his character than the public persona has been led to believe, some of which people here have been arguing for. Among those things are that he was doing nothing more than anyone else, when in fact, he was probably doing more, which his wealth and power enabled him to do. One of those things was getting Ferrari almost exclusively for himself, and secondly, if he felt threatened, was willing to try and stop other riders, even if it meant anonymously ratting them out.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/tour-vacat ... --spt.html
This is what I said I believe should happen. No winners.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Bambam didn't discuss this, but as I said earlier, it's not a fact that Amrstrong ratted him out, it's just idle speculation on Hamilton's part.
You talk about his wealth and power as though they were things that were just bestowed upon him, rather than something he acquired over time due to making smart decisions, such as using a doctor with a limited clientele rather one than like Fuentas who might as well have had a neon sign outside his office saying "Over One Thousand Cyclists Served". When Armstrong rolled into the start house for the prologue of 1999 Tour, he wasn't even one of the top 25 most powerful and wealthy cyclists in the peleton, and was considered damaged goods and a long shot to even finsish on the podium, much less win the race. At that time, the biggest star in the sport was probably Jan Ullrich, who was the leader of the Telekom team, and whose roster and budget dwarfed that of U.S. Postal, which was one of the weakest and poorest teams in the race. Why couldn't Ullrich manage his talent, wealth and power as judiciously as Armstrong would later do? At that time he would have been in a much better position to acquire the best dope and the most discreet doctors than Armstrong? His decision to use Fuentas was the equivalent of him flunking the IQ test that was mentioned earlier. What about Marco Pantani, why couldn't he have done what Armstrong did? What about Abraham Olano, Laurent Jalabert, Alex Zulle and Richard Virenque, they were all wealthier and more powerful than Armstrong at the time?

Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
As LA apologists still abound, this lady deserves accolades because she was never swayed about speaking the truth to help clean up the sport, even at personal cost, which almost no one else in this whole sordid affair were willing to do.

Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
I am very much aware of Frankie and Betsy Andreu's testimony against Armstrong when SCA Promotions sued him to withhold his $5 million bonus for winning the Tour. I remember thinking at the time that it would lead to Armstrong being sanctioned by the UCI, since based on his relationship with Armstrong, Frankie was an unimpeachable witness, and I was surprsied that it never went anywhere.
As for Betsy, I wouldn't pat her on the back too hard, since like Tyler Hamilton, she admitted that she never would have out ratted Armstrong if she hadn't been subpoenaed, and I can't blame her since her own husband was doping also, and it would have been hypocritical of her to rat out Armstrong and not Frankie. I guess I'm not easily impressed. What would have impressed me is if Betsy had gone to the UCI back in 2000 and ratted out the whole team when she first found out they were doping on the stage to Sestriere. That would be noble. Telling the truth because you're afraid of going to prison for committing perjury isn't so noble IMO.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Comparing Besty to Tyler Hamilton is pretty lame. Betsy has done a lot more than you give her credit for. Others had been subpoenad and lied. She refused to lie. She stood up in the face of Lance Inc and his posse who were trying to intimidate others into submission, or, as she puts it, sign affidavits when they weren't in the room [like Dr. Craig Miller]. While she may not have come forth in such a perfect fashion as you think she should have, she was also not hiding the truth so much as you let on. And, this whole story began long before the SCA lawsuit.
Betsy told her story to David Walsh in 2003 though asked that it be kept confidential. And yes while she may have been protecting her interests, she also wanted the truth to come out so was willing to talk to Walsh. Lance found out what Walsh was going to write in his book about the hospital room visit in 2004 and tried to get Betsy to sign an affidavit that it was a lie and to support him and discredit Walsh. She refused to do so. This is NOT the same as Hamilton. This is where she started developing the courage to stand up to Lance. And it is where things started to go south with the LA / Andreu relationships, to her and Frankie's financial detriment. Lance, in accordance with his usual tactics, started the public disparaging of her. The SCA lawsuit came later and in part because of what she told Walsh, because they had hear of the hospital room incident.
Lance is going to have his hands full now with SCA, and hopefully with some of the plethora of people he slandered along the way. This is only the beginning for him.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
This designation is truly infuriating. Nobody is "apologizing" for LA. Some of us simply feel that he did what all (vast majority) of his competitors/teammates did and was particularly demonized. So far I have not seen one testimony of any rider that could say he was clean. Is LA a jerk? Probably, but that is not the point.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
I don't think so. What's lame is putting Betsy on a pedestal despite the fact that she honored the omerta until she was put on the witness stand just like Hamilton. I don't give people brownie points for telling the truth under oath.
The only people who I can think of that lied under oath are Lance, Bruyneel and Lance's doctor. All of Lance's teammate's did the same thing Betsy did, which is honor the omerta until they were subpoenaed.
That's the whole point. She's not the only one in this saga with a conscience. Like everyone else, she was looking out for her own interests, and once her husband was retired, she got PED religion just like retired cyclists Jonathan Vaughters, Johan Museeuw and Bjarne Riis who all broke the omerta without being subpoenaed. And once she divorced Frankie she got even more PED religion. Why did she want Walsh to keep these secrets to himself? Why did anyone have to prod her at all? Couldn't she have come forward and spilled the beans voluntarily? The way I see it, everyone in the Lance's saga willingness to get PED religion and rat him out is inversely proportional what they have to lose by ratting him out. Banned cyclists with books to sell have more religion than ex-wives and ex-girlfriends (Sheryl Crow also testified). Ex-wives and ex-girlfriends have more religion than retired cyclists. Retired cyclists have more religion than active cyclists, and so forth and so on.
In what way? Hamilton wasn't in that hospital room and had no prior testimony to refute.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Amen Pego! I couldn't have said it better myself.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Yes, of course.
The problem here is that there are at least two "Lance Armstrongs" in people's minds. There is the cyclist who EVERYONE (with a brain) has either accepted or assumed was doing the same thing as nearly everyone else in the top rank of the TdF. To even pretend that there is any significant number of folks outside of Armstrong and his lawyer that "believe" that he never did PEDS is just ridiculous.
Then, there is the cultural icon Lance Armstrong: cancer survivor, organizer of a big charity to do good things and to give people hope, etc. THAT Lance Armstrong clearly DOES have some real and lasting support--which doesn't surprise me one bit and, in many respects, may be entirely justified. His charitable work has its own life and its own impact--and will survive or fall on its own merits.
But it is a very foolish notion that Armstrong the cyclist has significant "defenders" at this point.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Whether you like the term or not it is appropriate and my use of it is proper. If you don't like the term, take it up with Webster. It does not mean anyone is apologizing for him. It only means people are standing in defense of him, for whatever reason, of which many on this board are doing. Whether the argument is "he was no different than other cyclists" or, that it "happened long ago", or that "PED use should be legal anyway", whatever the case may be, these are still arguments on his behalf. This is by its very definition what an "apologist" does.

Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Are you kidding me? You can't see a difference? Hmmm, Hamilton, busted for drugs. Nothing else to lose.
Betsy Andreu, not under subpoena, under no threats willingly tells Lance to shove it when he tries to buy her off to discredit someone and lie for him. And given her experience of seeing people go up against Armstrong and his posse, this was probably not an easy decision.
How easy is it for you to play Monday morning quarterback and judge others about finding "religion". Walk a moment in their shoes.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
There is another more appropriate term that I think fits this discussion and that is "distortion".
Distortion - A statement that twists fact; a misrepresentation.
The folks who lay all of cycling's doping problems at the feet of Amrstrong and portray him as the godfather/mastermind of cycling's PED problems while simultaneously creating false heroes and saints, are no doubt guilty of gross distortion.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
Please do tell more about this. When did this happen and what evidence of this additional "religion" are you referring to?
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
You clearly are trying to lay such a term on me (in response to having properly used the English language) so please, do tell, anywhere where I have remotely come close to to laying "all of cycling's doping problems, etc. at the feet of Lance Armstrong. Your arguments are now starting to approach a level of ridiculousness.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
I do have one question that perhaps pego or bambam can answer. How could Armstrong's doctor get subpoenaed to testify against him? Isn't any discussion between a doctor and his patient supposed to be protected by physician–patient privilege?
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
This is just logically wrong. These are NOT "arguments on his behalf"--they are arguments about the real, actual, and larger problem--of which he is but one part. The meaningful point is this: if one is genuinely serious about the real, larger issue, then one needs to look beyond the big, fat, juicy, seductive, and primarily symbolic target of Lance Armstrong.
Re: Columnist looks at "trolls" who are anti-Armstrong
I thinks it's pretty clear to everyone on this thread where you're coming from. Your words speak for themselves.

Theofilos Hadjimichail (Greek, 1867-1934)
Ulysses and Iphigenia in Avlida
signed in Greek (lower right); inscribed (upper and lower part)
natural pigements on canvas
78 x 88 cm.
Private collection, Athens.
Iphigenia in Aulis, a subject so dear to Theofilos that he painted it on his famous little chest -the most valuable of his possessions- in which he kept the tools of his trade, becomes an ideal vehicle for the painter to fuse iconographic and linguistic symbols in a uniform and living Greek myth. The painter Alecos Fassianos recalls that in 1959, when he visited the island of Lesvos with Professor P. Mylonas to record the artist's works, an old woman told him that she had met Theofilos once and asked him: "What is that you are painting my son? He replied: 'A woman who sacrificed her life to save Greece.' That's exactly how Theofilos felt about it; that Iphigenia had literally sacrificed herself for the good of the Greeks. Theofilos was a true artist, who gave us a national pictorial consciousness, so that we can be proud to have paintings that spring like trees from this land's very soil."
Ingeniously combining instinctive knowledge, compositional discipline and freedom of colour choices with a deep sense of a heroic past, Theofilos rediscovered the hidden clue of Greek painting, becoming a point of reference for the most prominent Greek intellectuals of the 20th century. Nobel laureates G. Seferis and O. Elytis considered him an uncorrupted student of the senses who gave expression to the true face of Greece and a great artist who made us see the world with a different eye.
"His roots go way back to the ancient Aegean and it is this heritage that makes him paint in a distinctly Greek manner."
Ancient Greek subjects comprise a significant subset of Theofilos's iconography, allowing him to explore a mythical, ideal world that was out of his reach, before turning with nostalgia to more familiar and accessible subjects, such as landscapes and genre scenes.
Here, the seer Calchas is shown in front of the temple of Apollo -as indicated by the inscription on the lower left, the image of the sun on the pediment and the god's statue in the interior- welcoming with a theatrical gesture Iphigenia and Odysseus to the port of Aulis, in Boeotia "when the ships of the Achaeans were gathered bringing disaster to he Trojans and Priam, and we beside a spring and upon the sacred altars were accomplishing complete hecatombs to the immortals." (Iliad, Book Two, 303-306.) The fleet of the Achaeans lend rhythm to the picture, while the boldly coloured floral motifs wonderfully framing the oval composition reflect a particularly happy period in Theofilos's art. As noted by G. Petris, his works involving the sacrifice of Iphigenia are among Theofilos's finest moments.
As the myth goes, after two years of preparing for the Trojan War, the Greek fleet and army had assembled in Aulis, but Agamemnon while hunting killed a stag (shown at the foot of the temple) which was sacred to Artemis and the goddess in retribution visited the army with pestilence and produced a calm which prevented the ships from sailing. Thereupon, Calchas, the wise soothsayer, announced that the wrath of the goddess could only be appeased by the sacrifice of a virgin, and that none other but the daughter of the offender, the maiden Iphigenia, would be acceptable. Agamemnon, however reluctant, gave his consent and sent for his daughter, under the pretence that she was to be married to Achilles. But, at the moment of sacrifice, Diana, relenting, snatched the maiden away and left a deer in her place. Enveloped in a cloud, Iphigenia was conveyed to Tauris, where Artemis made her a priestess at her temple.
The Homeric epics, the remotest time period Theofilos dealt with, is close in spirit to his art. Fundamental to the Homeric representations of reality is parataxis, a style in which sentences, ideas and episodes are placed one after another like beads on a string. Each hexameter is followed by another of equal grammatical and semantic value. In paratactic narrative -much like in Theofilos's linear arrangement of figures- every idea and every scene are equally important, equally emphasized and thus all seem to exist on one uniform level or plane. In both cases, this device is characteristic of an impulse to provide a full description of the subject by leaving nothing obscure, hidden or implicit. Everything is explained and clearly expressed and, therefore, all phenomena are thrust forward to the narrative surface where they receive even illumination in a continuous present.

After extending the application deadline by a month and offering a higher salary range, the city attracted another 37 candidates, bringing the total to 78 applicants for the position that Don Hoyt will vacate at the end of August.
"While we worried that might complicate things and cause confusion," Councilman Jay Jenkins said of the extension, "I think it was necessary."
The top of the salary range was bumped from $120,000 to $150,000.
Jenkins said he's still working through the last sets of applicants, but he has already identified six who he feels could be successful for Anniston, with potential candidates coming out of both sets of applications.
For Councilman Seyram Selase, the most important qualification for a city manager is experience, preferably in cities the size of Anniston or larger.
Of the 78 candidates, 28 have five years of experience managing local governments, and three more have served as assistant managers. Four more have served as department heads in local governments.
"As a young council, I feel like we're doing a good job, but we're still learning," he said.
Jenkins said there are a number of applicants who did not meet the minimum criteria set forth by the council but added that some of these applicants "still brought with them some real skill packages that may be worth considering a second look."
The candidates include attorneys, municipal judges, congressional interns and staffers, directors of convention centers, an architect, college instructors, accountants, fire fighters, police officers, sheriff's deputies. Several have served as elected officials in their communities, and others have commanded military installations from Georgia to Alaska. Another ran for mayor of Anniston last year. A few noted their achievement as Eagle Scouts.
One applicant is a former special agent with the FBI. Another was a special investigator who conducted national security investigations on active federal employees and applicants.
A few of the applicants are Anniston natives, but most come from other states, including Florida, Georgia and Mississippi as well as California, Virginia, Rhode Island, Montana and Michigan.
In the job description, the city specified that applicants must have a bachelor's degree in public administration, business administration, or a closely related field, while a master's in public administration is preferred.
Of those who applied, 29 have master's degrees in public administration, with three more working toward such diplomas. Four applicants have related master's degrees, and another 11 have master's degrees in business administration. Of the remaining candidates, three have bachelor's degrees in business administration, and one has a bachelor's degree in public administration.
Robert Burg, a partner with search firm Ralph Andersen & Associates, said it's common to have a number of applicants who are not qualified for the position.
Ideally, he said, councils should have between 10 and 12 highly qualified candidates to choose from. With 28 candidates with prior experience, he said, the key moving forward is vetting the candidates and interviewing them until they find the proper fit for the city.
"On paper, they all look good. The vetting process should be critical," Burg said, adding it's important to make sure candidates have no controversies that will embarrass the council.
Councilwoman Millie Harris said she's almost finished going through the batch of 78 applicants and has been doing outside research on candidates that catch her eye.
"A lot of these people, they didn't leave under good circumstances," she said.
Harris said she's been trying to determine whether the negativity is the the result of problems or "is it because they really did something and created some waves?"
Councilman David Reddick said he's interested to see how each of the council members' short lists match up. But he believes that with the current council, whichever manager the members ultimately choose will have the opportunity to reach his or her potential.
"We've got a chance now to get a good city manager with a good city council to see things progress," he said.
Earlier this month, Mayor Vaughn Stewart said he would like to see the council narrow its pool of applicants to between five and 10 by the end of July and begin interviews — via online video chat and then in person for the final few applicants — in August.
He said he would like to have someone in place by Sept. 1, the first day of Hoyt's retirement.

Oh, hello blog. I hope I did not lose any of my dedicated readers (all ten of you). I was on vacation down in the land of the South and then I got lazy for a while when I got back. Inexcusable, I know, but that's my excuse. The plan to visit the 'Rents for 4th o' July had been in the works for a while, but it wasn't until about 2 weeks prior to departure that we realized we would have to do something with Moriarty. I immediately set out to scour Yelp for all the dog kennels in Chicago. Some were straight up ridiculous ("Upgrade your pup to an executive suite for just $20 more per night") and almost all had at least a few horror stories in their reviews. The anxiety began to set in.
I probably wouldn't argue if you said that we are attached to our dog perhaps to an unhealthy level, but that's just the way it is. I convinced myself that leaving him for 4 nights would send the clear message to him that we no longer loved him and had abandoned him forever. Now, I don't know if a dog would even be able to think at that level, but that didn't make the worry any less. We finally settled on a boarding joint recommended by a friend, that was modest in price and "suites," but seemed to have a dedicated and caring staff, with plenty of Facebook pictures to prove their dogs aren't chained to trees all day and fed rats. We dropped off Arty a couple hours before take off, and I would be lying if I said the look he gave us as he walked down the hall didn't stick with me the entire time we were gone. I know, I know, I make myself sick with this ridiculousness, but I can't help it. Texas, meanwhile, was great. We enjoyed the company of family, and more importantly, visited more than once the home of the best donuts IN THE WORLD.
When we got back into town we rushed to the kennel, cursing the Chicago traffic the whole time, and ran through the doors, envisioning some sort of movie-scene leap into arms reunion. As it was, it took them about five minutes to get our dog away from his puppy friends, and when he saw us, he was clearly a little confused. This just confirmed my fears that he had believed he was abandoned forever. Actually, after the 30-minute car ride home, he slowly came around to remembering us, and becoming the same great/crazy pet he was when we dropped him off. Pictures from the kennel proved he was perfectly content while we were gone, and all the anxiety was probably just one-sided.
On a terribly sad note, we got word last night that Moriarty's best friend from the neighborhood, a 9 month old bull mastif puppy, that was about 12 times his size, died of some sudden onset crazy respiratory virus. We were sad all night, and still are, even though he was not our dog. It also put into perspective that it is not embarrassing (well, not THAT embarrassing) to worry and fuss over and love our pup like we do, because if that had happened to him, we would be heartbroken. That is all, I will be back to blogging about bacon etc. tomorrow. I apologize for the absence. Here's a bonus lovely picture of Chicago skyline taken by The Wife to make up for it.

The Bridges' Investor Buys Into Beleaguered High-End Golf Facility
OURAY COUNTY – Cornerstone Colorado, the private golf community between Montrose and Telluride that recently closed, may have a new future.
A group of investors from Arkansas and Nashville, Tenn., including the owner of The Bridges Golf Club in Montrose, Lew Thompson, has purchased the majority of assets at Cornerstone, according to the property's broker, Beckie Pendergrass.
The purchased assets include some platted lots, a large portion of open land, cabins and the clubhouse. The purchase of the golf course and remaining assets are scheduled to close within 60 days pending the satisfactory completion of their due diligence in working with the Cornerstone Metro District, she said.
Although the golf course has not yet be purchased, it is still being maintained, but remains closed. If obtained by the new group, they plan to maintain Cornerstone as the high-end private golf facility that it was before closing, Pendergrass said.
"The group saw Cornerstone as a great opportunity even in this economical climate, and are looking forward to taking ownership of the entire property and being part of the Telluride/Montrose communities," she said.
The Bridges' general manager, Eric Feely, has been named interim general manager of Cornerstone. Feely did not return messages for comment by press time.
Cornerstone, a 6,000-acre golf community, went into foreclosure in March, at which time it went under the control of Cobalt Companies, a Salt Lake City firm that acquires distressed real-estate notes.
The property has bounced around several firms in the past few years.
In December of 2011, it sold for an undisclosed amount to SilverLeaf Financial of Salt Lake City. Cobalt took hold of Cornerstone after SilverLeaf breached its loan covenant.
That foreclosure didn't affect the homeowners within the golf community, but did include 69 of the 125-fully improved lots and an additional 287 lots in various levels of improvement within the development.
In June, Cobalt decided to close the golf course and cease operations. Most of the 30 employees at the resort were laid off, with only a small crew staying behind to maintain the property.
Prior to SilverLeaf, Cornerstone was a subsidiary of Hunt Reality Investments of Hunt Oil Company out of Dallas.

Fitbit ZIP
Fitbit is a technology company dedicated to helping people lead healthier, more active lifestyles. Fitbit has created an ecosystem of wireless tracking devices that collect health and fitness-related data, which users can access in a fun, engaging and motivating way view through their online dashboard or via Fitbit's iPhone and Android app.
In collaboration with Fitbit's internal teams, Character was tasked with developing a new packaging system that would be applied to both their existing and future suite of products. The new packaging system would be showcased via two of Fitbit's latest products:
1. Fitbit Aria – A wireless "smart scale" that tracks weight, % body fat and Body Mass Index
2. Fitbit ZIP – A wireless activity tracker that automatically measure steps, distance and calories burned.
The new packaging system had to work hard on a number of different levels. Firstly, the structure and design had to stand out and grab the attention of consumers in a cluttered, highly competitive retail environment. Secondly, the design language had to be versatile enough to work across both the Fitbit Aria and Fitbit ZIP, in addition to any future product SKU's. From a visual perspective, the design language had to leverage Fitbit's
current brand identity and complement Fitbit's existing online experience. From a messaging perspective, both packaging designs had to clearly communicate product functionality, product benefits and the setup process in a simple, easy-to-understand and graphical manner.
The Fitbit Aria successfully launched in January at the Consumer Electronics Show to rave reviews. The Fitbit ZIP followed later in the year, launching with Fitbit's "The One" – Fitbit's latest iteration of their activity and sleep tracker.

In a recent NIDA-funded study, women responded better to substance abuse treatment after their post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms improved, but reductions in substance abuse did not ease PTSD severity. The 353 participants in the 6-week treatment were patients in seven community-based substance abuse treatment programs in NIDA's Clinical Trials Network. The women received their programs' standard drug treatments, plus 12 group sessions of either Seeking Safety—a cognitive-behavioral therapy with components addressing both trauma and substance abuse—or Women's Health Education, which does not specifically address either problem. The study found that the two added therapies had similar effects.
When the data from the two treatment arms were combined in a secondary study, reductions in the severity of PTSD tended to presage improvements in substance abuse disorder, but there was minimal evidence that reducing substance use improved PTSD symptoms. Lead researcher Dr. Denise Hien of City University of New York and Columbia University says the findings indicate that people with trauma self-medicate with substances of abuse. She suggests that clinicians reconsider the common practice of requiring patients to attain abstinence before treating their trauma symptoms.

New Toolchain added (V3) with firmware 2.0 / 2.1 support! Thanks to javacom who build that toolchain!
iPhone: 16GB White
Shop: Italy - Portogruado
Jailbreak: QuickPwn
Network: German O2 (Unlocked)
Firmware: 2.2
Largest iPhone related Filebase -RELOADED-
Pwnage, QuickPwn, WinPwn and the VMWare Toolchain all there!
Now with new page, new download system and more speed!
I'm awfully confused - and if somebody could help, that would be great. I have the image loaded in VMWare, booted, and I'm logged in as root. I understand that I am to mount the VM disk as a shared network drive in Windows by using the VM's IP address. However, the VM doesn't seem to have an IP address? The network setting is still set to "Bridged" (as it was), and I'm not sure why it doesn't work. 'ifconfig' only shows the loopback device.
Also, once this first part gets resolved.. What do I do with it then? I mean, there isn't an XCode for Windows, so how does the 'toolchain' fit in with dev'ing for the iPhone? I'm confused as to what I use the mounted network drive for!
Any help you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated - it's SO frustrating trying to get started coding iPhone apps on a Windows box!
EDIT: Turns out, all you have to type is `dhclient`. The ethernet adapter is eth4 (I had tried eth0 and eth1 to no avail). So, now what? I have it mounted in Vista as my Z: drive. But now what?? Anyone?
Last edited by JCovert; 10-25-2008 at 02:04 AM.
If you want to use XCode, you need a Mac and you don't need this image.
This VMWare image is only acted as a server and does not have any graphical interface.
What you can do is described in the README.txt.
First use dhclient to fix your network and get ip address.
You can use smb mount / ssh / scp to the server.
You can also edit the file using your favorite editor using smb mount or scp protocol.
Then use make to compile. and make install (after changing the IPHONE_IP in the Makefile) to install to your iPhone.
If you don't know how to use Linux Server, buy a Mac or use hackint0sh and build iPhone app using Xcode.
Oh! Okay, cool! So I can code in Windows, scp it over to the server, build it there and install it to my iPhone? Great - can I dev GUI stuff on Windows? Or do I need to use XCode and related tools on a Mac for that?
Thanks javacom!

Just look at the sample project UICatalog.
It is the sample code on UIKit for gui coding.
Interface Builder is only available in Mac Xcode.
I'm a french developer and i've some trouble...
I use Ubuntu VWmare image.
I'll try to deploy UICatalog on iphone, so i do step :
- Change IP_IPHONE on makefile
- Compile (make)
- Deploy (make install) => Deployement is Ok !
But , when i want to start UICatalog, i've a popup saying "impossible open application UICatalog" ...
Iphone 16Go - v2.1 (5F136) French ...
Could you help me ?
Thanks in advance,
you have to use iPhone to install a free app from App Store and that will update your iphone
and then restart your iphone and try to launch UICatalog again
With the help from Saurik, you can now build the ldid in your Linux
ldid is use to fake codesign the binary in iPhone firmware 2.x, it is more convenient to codesign it in Linux, especially when you want to package it in cydia debian package
Here is the instruction to compile the ldid binary in Linux
If you need to codesign the iPhone binary in Linux add this (as one line) to your build scriptCode:wget http://svn.telesphoreo.org/trunk/data/ldid/ldid-1.0.476.tgz tar -zxf ldid-1.0.476.tgz cd ldid-1.0.476 g++ -I . -o util/ldid{,.cpp} -x c util/{lookup2,sha1}.c sudo cp -a util/ldid /usr/bin
(assume your toolchain is in /toolchain2)
For other options of ldid, please seeCode:export CODESIGN_ALLOCATE=/toolchain2/pre/bin/arm-apple-darwin9-codesign_allocate; ldid -S $(PROJECTNAME)

My brother is a title setter and I have help him some, we have not done this while I was helping, but it seems to me it would be easier to cut the counter top.
here's the situation. i currently have an old formica countertop. i am planning cover it with marble tile (12" x 12"). i want to sandwich the undermount sink between existing formica and new marble tile. do i need to grind the bottom of the tiles that will surround the new sink since the flange of the sink will be higher than the existing formica, OR, should i cut out the formica to make the sink flange flush with the other formica surface?
My brother is a title setter and I have help him some, we have not done this while I was helping, but it seems to me it would be easier to cut the counter top.
I really want to see pictures of the finished product....
the easy way to keep from makeing a total mess
out of it would be to forget about the under mount sink
and install a nice normal SS sink on top of your finished marble ........
A recipe for disaster...most formica is set over partical board which, when it gets wet swells up and will tear up your stone tile; plus, while a good modified thinset will stick to nearly anything, formica isn't a great idea as it could delaminate from the backing.
There are ways to do an undermount sink with tile. The better way is probably to use something like Rondec from www.schluter.com. Another method is to mount the flange on top of the counter substrate, then tile over it. Making the edges look good is a little tough, but doable. Marble, at least some of them, can be shaped with sandpaper and a grinder. You would get a better result with a profiling bit, then you can polish it with sandpaper...wet/dry paper works and is available in very fine grits. Diamond pads will last longer, but cost more. Many formica counters have rounded edges, which will also give you grief with tile. They also make tile-in sinks, with square corners (much easier to tile to) that are designed to be tiled in and flush with the counter. The worst junction is the sink to counter...any moisture in there will often cause the counter to delaminate, swell, and ruin the overall result.
Check out www.johnbridge.com for some tiling help, pictures, and ideas.

well guys having a variety of suggestions from you i think i go with the topmount. i didn't take into consideration that the particle board could/would swell. as for the de-lamination....i'll take my chances. my counter has has squared edges so there's no problem there. also i plan to butt the tiles to each other without grout lines. is that a problem? i do have another question though. what do i edge the front edge and top of slash panel with? i've seen wood trim but i'm afraid it will deteriorate when it gets wet. need more help
You don't need a very big grout joint, but you DO need one. A kitchen counter is often going to get stuff spilled on it. Guess where it will end up? In the gaps between the tile. You'll never get it out. Think of stale beer, milk, etc...it will be nasty. A regular grout will be helped by a sealer, but you could go with an epoxy grout, which is nearly impervious to everything.
The formica and tile will expand and contract at different rates, so it's a tossup whether a good modified thinset will hold it indefinately. You'd have better luck with something like cbu installed, but it must be anchored with screws, which will give you a path for moisture to the partical board underneath. If you put some cbu down, then used some RedGard on it, you'd waterproof it. Apply liberally around the sink opening, too to protect the edges.
Check out www.johnbridge.com for help with tiling.

DO NOT tile over formica countertop. That is an absolute no no. It's not that much work to rip it up and screw in a 3/4" plywood. Then thinset 1/4" cbu and screw down with cbu screws. Use a good quality thinset and then use epoxy grout. I never worked with epoxy grout. I heard it's very tuff to work with. Read directions carefully and do a practice run on some scrap tiles.
You don't have to put a space if the tile is beveled on top. The 1/16" bevel placing two tiles together will give you a grout joint. If you are going to butt tiles you have to work perfectly square as there is no room for error. Also tuffer to make an overall flat appearance.
Note: Some colored marbles such as green marble require epoxy thinset or you take the chance of the tile warping.
Schluter systems makes a nice countertop edging profile.
Don't follow my advice, I only know a thing or two about a thing or two.
An epoxy grout MIGHT stick in the microbevel, but a traditional cement based grout will not. It won't last long...even a 1/32" gap is enough, but the smaller the gap, the harder it is to mash the grout in between the tile. If you don't, it will not last, especially on a countertop. Can you picture a thread of cement 1/32" thick - no strength unless is has some contact area - there's none in the microbevel. WIth stone, 1/16" joint is fairly common. If you choose a grout color that blends with the tile and don't overwash it, it should end up flush with the tile after installation. For professional tile help, check out www.johnbridge.com.
An epoxy grout is made up of the plastic binders and a colored sand like material (sometimes, it is sand). The hardest part of using an epoxy grout is cleaning up properly...if you don't do it well, you'll end up with a sticky, splotchy layer on the top of the tile. Also, the color filler can scratch a highly polished , soft stone tile just like sanded grout can. That is why people use unsanded with most stones, but also keep in mind, an unsanded grout can't be used in joints bigger than 1/8"...it shrinks more than sanded grout (epoxy grout doesn't shrink appreciably) and will usually crack.

For tiled countertops, do you think someone should use epoxy grout or regular unsanded grout.
My thinking was all the small food particles and smashed food will work it's way into unsanded cement grout and stain it, even with a good sealer.
With epoxy, it doesn't absorb anything.
Don't follow my advice, I only know a thing or two about a thing or two.
There are millions of tiled counters out there using cementious grout...nobody really knows how long an epoxy grout will last. Probably longer than you need it, but cement can too. Liquids can penetrate standard grout, but if sealed well and you clean up rather than letting things sit, it can look good a long time. Older epoxy grouts could yellow a little, but the newer ones seem to be less prone to this. I guess it might depend on the color chosen...I was going to go with a really light colored grout, I'd lean more towards epoxy; if it was dark, it's a toss-up. Epoxy will cost more. Installation isn't really harder, but you must be meticulous with cleanup procedures, or it can make a real mess. If you have a textured tile, cleanup is harder.

SInce the existing sink is already installed in a cutout in the countertop, what do you plan on setting it on, or holding it up, before you install the new tile over it? You might as well just leave it and the rim in place and then tile over the rim so only the sink is exposed.
Sounds bad all around. Definitely go top mount. I wouldn't tile over formica for any money. And definitely use a grout line.
I would go epoxy.

Lots on in City Square this Saturday

There will be plenty to keep you entertained in City Square before Roberto Mancini's road warriors take on Norwich this Saturday.
After three consecutive away games, the top-of-the-table Blues will be bringing it all back home in front of another sell-out crowd, and if you're one of them don't miss out on what's in store in our dedicated fan area by the CityStore.
The bars and cafes around the square are open from around midday, while Hugh Ferris and Natalie Pike will be on onstage with Live From City Square just after 1pm. They will be joined by the star of "Shameless" and lifelong City fan David Threlfall, while the exciting up-and-coming local act The Rainband will perform a four-song set after 2pm.
There are also prizes galore on offer – Saturday sees our outdoor EA Sports gaming zone unveiled, and if you're a hotshot on FIFA 12 then a pair of match tickets could be yours.
Or you could instantly upgrade to a hospitality package for Saturday's game – if you can take our Manchester Egg challenge! It's the delicacy that's all the rage – pickled egg, wrapped in black pudding and sausage, topped with breadcrumbs – yum! First of all, register by emailing us at firstname.lastname@example.com, make sure you can be in City Square for 2pm and we'll pick three entrants.
Keep your eyes on the big screens for an interview with one of the players as they arrive, the reading out of the team sheet live from the tunnel and Roberto Mancini's thoughts on his selection for the day. Look out for Fanzone Danny as he roams the area for your match predictions.
City Square – it's the place to be, don't miss out!
