I write about energy and environmental issues.
Move Move over Tesla Motors Tesla Motors, the U.S. military is rewriting the rules of electricity-induced locomotion.
Rather than storing electricity supplied by the electric grid, the next-generation of electric vehicles may be designed to supply self-generated electricity to the electric grid.
The U.S. military is integrating a variety of onboard electric generating technologies into combat and tactical wheeled vehicles.
And for good reason.
As modern military operations have shifted away from historical modes of conflict where force-on-force combat occurred on a "front line," the distinction between combat and logistical vehicles has become blurred.
In today's threat environment, logistics and other noncombat vehicles commonly encounter the same range of threats as combat vehicles.
As a result, the ability to generate significant amounts of electrical power has become increasingly critical for the full spectrum of military vehicles.
Non-combat vehicles are increasingly designed to accommodate combat-grade vehicle electronic systems, or what the military calls "vectronics," including sensors, jammers and communication and control equipment.
The ability to support the electric power needed to operate these systems has become a critical issue.
In the past, military support vehicles have had relatively modest power requirements with onboard electric loads seldom exceeding that required to support a single radio system.
Not so long ago, vehicle electronic systems could be operated for short periods of time without starting the vehicle's engine. By contrast, it has become increasingly necessary to keep vehicle engines running nearly continuously to power the electronic equipment necessary for the vehicle to complete its intended mission.
The need to power the plethora of emerging sensors and communication systems installed in military vehciles is putting a significant strain on current vehicle power systems.
Given the explosive growth of power requirements for vehicles and the long-term service life of most military vehicles, even if it were possible to meet all of today's power requirements, those systems would be pressed to meet the anticipated new power demands in the not-so-distant future.
As a result, military vehicles are now being designed to include a variety of on-board power generators capable of generating significant amounts of electricity while the vehicle stationary.
Transmission-Integral Generators (TIG) are one of the most widely adopted on-board generator technologies. TIGs are fully integrated transmission and power systems that can generate as much as 125 kW from the engine drive shaft to support the virtual cornucopia of electronic sensors, jammers and communication equipment being designed for the military's fleet of vehicles.
DRS Technologies, the Huntsville, AL-based subsidiary of Italy's industrial conglomerate Finmeccanica SpA, has begun installing TIGs, which it calls the On-Board Vehicle Power (OBVP) system, on the U.S. Army's High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicles, which are more commonly known as Humvees.
TIGs are not the only game in town.
In July, TM3 Systems, a microgrid start-up company founded last year in Royal Oak, MI, completed a demonstration project that used the propulsion system from a General Dynamics General Dynamics' Electric Drive (eDrive) armored vehicle to generate electricity for a Tactical Modular Mobile MicroGrid (TM3) power system.
Meanwhile, Oshkosh Oshkosh Defense has developed the ProPulse hybrid diesel-electric system for military vehicles, which can generate enough electricity to power an entire airfield or hospital.
Again, another idiot author who doesn't seem to know very much about EVs, Tesla, or the military but writes an article about all three.
First US military is not going to EVs…Unproven, prone to all sorts of battle field issues..the combustion engine, not only turns a drive shaft but also several other pulley systems(air conditioning and alternator). Of which the Alternator actually produces electricity to power such things as charging the battery and power outlets such as a cigarette lighter which has been around for a long time…..
So now the military is adding more alternators(basically generators) that can produce more electricity using the same engine that turns the drive shaft……
And they have been doing so for a long time…NOTHING NEW here but a lazy author who cuts corners and doesn't believe in research.
So how does the military compete with TESLA when one is an ALL ELECTRIC CAR and the other is USING a combustion ENGINE to produce electricity….MORON
No William. You simply have muddled the meaning of "electric vehicle" in a way that sows confusion. I'm pretty sure this mix-up is yours, not DOD's.
You could simply have said that the military has a growing interest in distributed power and been accurate. And not simply from mobile generators — which are hardly a new idea — but from solar, biomass, other unconventional sources. Indeed, unlike the mobile generators, some of those are locally generated, and thus reduce reliance on vulnerable logistics tails to supply fuel.
As others pointed out, this has practically nothing to do with Tesla — though that company does have some interest in promoting solar-powered stations for recharging its electric vehicles.
My first car was an AMC Ambassador wagon with an AMX 390 Dual Barrel Experimental engine. At that time, cars were just getting into power windows, steering, air conditioning, etc. Our car was an experiment to see if the AMX motor that was beating the other car companies at the track, would be good in an ordinary car for the sake of generating electricity. All the supped up cars in my city would ask me to meet them on the highway for a race. I never had to complete a race because within seconds of the girl waving the flag, the challengers were far down the road in my rear view mirror. I wish Chrysler, who bought AMC for it's Jeep engineering, would make AMXs and Javlins again.
This has nothing to do with tesla motors cars, this is a bunch of crap
Not enough information here. Ask the tough questions. How do you transport electrical energy to the remote front lines? Liquid fuel is kind of easy, e.g., airplanes, tanker trucks, barrels. Batteries are too heavy.
Unfortunately your electricity can be ended with the correct EMP
There are designs immune to EMP
electricity is the future,,,,,
A TIG is NOT for electricity induced locomotion. It's basically a portable generator.
"the distinction between combat and logistical vehicles has become." What?
"while the vehicle stationary" A verb, please.
And, even with a TIG, you still need to have the engine running.
You link vectronics and the need for on-board power, which is kind of OK; but then miss the larger point that having up to 125kw of power is enough to run a base camp.
This can be a big boost to emergency response as well as drive down costs on multi-junction/spectrum 1 x sun solar panels which offer the most watt hours per sq foot year round. The exception to this is concentrated solar panels with high concentration of sunlight year round.
the industrial military complex and "the money is endless" insane military, has bleed, the once rich and happy america into a sad, poor, broke, police state.
There are several versions of catalytic electrolysis cells coming onto the market right now. There was an article on a dishwasher size home unit coming available soon here on Forbes that will use methane. Bloom box already has a number of custom made commercial units on lease and in field use tests with several large companies.
These could be easily adaptable to vehicle use I think.
Electric motors have been in use for over 100 years, and are well known, durable, low maintenance, sealable against harsh environments, and have excellent weight to power ratios, and are low cost per unit of power available.
Catalytic fuel cells are silent in operation, a HUGE plus for military use.
So, this does not seem unusual to me that the military would be looking into this pathway——in fact, I'd be very surprised if they weren't.
Well, at least they will not have to pay Halliburton $11.00 a gallon for gas they bought locally for 75 cents per gallon.
Google "Two Minute Conservative," http://adrianvance.blogspot.com When you speak ladies will swoon and liberal gentlemen will weep.
I would like to point out that the "delivered" to the field cost of fuel is running over $700/gal right now. Not $11/gal.
As for field charging, I was recently speaking to a Marine fresh back from Iraq. He informed me that his unit routinely took multiple cases of batteries into the field on every mission he went on. Why I asked, knowing that the batteries were rechargeable.
His answer floored me, "we have no means of charging the batteries in the field" These are high dollar batteries we are talking about here, being used once and discarded.
Given that logistics/delivery companies such as UPS and Fedex use electric vehicles, as does the US Postal Service, and so many public transit systems are hybrids, it would make perfect sense for the military to explore this for non-combat applications. I'd be surprised if they weren't.
As a contractor on the MRAP's that were used in Iraq and Afghanistan…here is my take. Strictly as a reference, the hybrid configuration that the Prius uses would be ideal. For combat vehicles, most missions were driven at 25-30mph. This is almost the perfect range for a hybrid. The transmission would be key. The electric motor would be built into the transmission. This would allow it to be used as a generator at idle. This same vehicle could be down graded in armor to be used as a non combat vehicle. THE DOWNSIDE: Voltages- hybrid vehicles run on higher voltages in order to keep the motors at a useable size. I believe the Prius is 400V+. So now this military vehicle 1. needs huge batteries, and 2. needs a large…? to step down the voltage for normal use. Actually though the largest problem is training. The Army (our largest single military group) does not want to invest in the training, or the competition in aquiring, higher qualified individuals to repair these vehicles. They barely invest in their everyday mechanics. Ironicly, the cost of the poorly trained mechanics (breakage, improper diagnosis) greatly exceeds what it would cost to train them properly. Enter the very expensive contractors to take up the slack. So, while the military can keep on buying their overpriced electronic toys, their shortfall will always be the repair personel.
Seriously, this stuff is cool, but none of it has anything to do with Tesla. If the vehicle converts a fuel to electricity, then it's not an "electric vehicle," it's a ______ vehicle with an electric motor. A Prius runs in gasoline, after all. No gasoline no go. All of the stuff described here runs on diesel or jet fuel or something, but NOT electricity.
Heck, by this definition, a common diesel locomotive is an "electric vehicle."

C-SPAN first went on the air 34 years ago on Tuesday. And it is of note that viewers of roughly the same age are tuning in to a network where no-frills cameras are trained on lawmakers, policy wonks and pivotal election. Commentary and glitzy package is a minimum.
And therein lies the appeal to the young and restless. The network offers "raw uncut coverage of their political heroes," says Hart Research pollster Allan Rivlin, who is tracking the growing audience.
Among the 47 million regular C-SPAN viewers, he found that 51 percent are male and 49 percent female; 26 percent are liberal, 31 percent conservative, and 39 percent moderate. Almost half are college graduates.
Viewership is highest, however, among the 18-to-49-year-olds, with 28 percent reporting having watched at least once a week, compared with 19 percent for 50- to 64-year-olds. Twenty-two percent are above age 65.
"This growth in C-SPAN viewership, especially among the youngest groups, is surprising in this time of generalized media fragmentation," Mr. Rivlin observes. "But it is not so mysterious in that C-SPAN offers the emerging group of information free-agents access to the raw uncut coverage of their political heroes, and sometimes perhaps their villains, they can then share on blogs and social networks."
Among other things, 43 percent have watched their member of Congress or home state U.S. Senator on C-SPAN. More than a third have written or e-mailed their local lawmaker.Nearly a third report share the network's videos by uploading or linking them to a Web site.
The survey of 1,229 U.S. adults was conducted Jan. 10-17 and released Tuesday.

Then in his second start, Aaron Harang came out of the phone booth and laughed at the mere mortals. It was going to be that kind of night.
This was a much different Harang from the right-hander who couldn't get out of the fifth inning in his first start, also against the Padres. This Harang threw fastballs past hitters, dropped 70 mph curves on the corners and froze hitters.

I have two problems - firstly tuning a MR-J3-70B on a belt system
I get smooth movement with no overshoot - but the movement has a huge droop
Remove the Droop using 100% Velocity Feed forward and I get overshoot (Accel /Decel time target is 200 ms from 5000 rpm)
I have looked at the vibration filters and have not have much success
How do I remove the droop yet still have no overshoot? Any pointers - what parameters to look at
Been bashing my head on this for a couple of days
Secondly A MR-MQ100 that has to follow a synchronous encoder reference closely
What are the parameters to look at - does anyone have a mechanical program that does encoder speed dependent phase advance?

European Real Estate Listing Company Slashes Energy Use and Operating Costs with Red Hat Virtualization
January 13, 2009
Customer: Immobillien Scout 24
Dramatically reduce energy use and operating costs while improving overall performance and manageability of servers and maintaining zero downtime
32-bit Windows server environment to 64-bit server environment based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform with built-in virtualization technology
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform with integrated virtualization, Red Hat Cluster Suite, Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite, Red Hat Global Support Services
HP Blade Systems
Reduced energy usage by 25 percent and hardware cost per server by 60 percent, carved out operations costs by 10 percent with streamlined systems management, achieved full return on investment for the project within three months, and maintains consistent zero downtime
ImmobilienScout24.de is one of the most successful real estate listing companies in Europe. Servicing primarily German-speaking countries, the site has more than three million visitors each month and serves more than 800 million pages. Headquartered in Berlin, the company currently has approximately 400 employees and serves more than 95,000 realtors and#x2013; its paying customers. Since its website is the core of its business, uptime and performance are crucial factors for meeting customer expectations. To meet these demands, ImmobilienScout24 had previously migrated from a 32-bit Windows server environment to a more sophisticated 64-bit server environment based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and added a second fully redundant active-active data center in Hamburg to support its existing datacenter in Berlin. Each location had approximately 100 physical servers running a variety of applications including Oracle, MySQL, Apache, Tomcat, and LAMP-based subsystems as well as PHP and Perl for front-end applications.
With many servers scheduled for end-of-life in 2008, ImmobilienScout24 planned a major virtualization initiative with the goal of speeding provisioning time and lowering overall operating costs per server instance.
However, early in the year, ImmobilienScout24's Tier-1 datacenter provider came to the company with dramatic news—the vendor could not provide any more power, at any cost, to ImmobilienScout24's servers. Energy prices were rising quickly and the provider had been given new limitations on its electricity supply to certain locations.
Considering the company's growth rate, ImmobilienScout24 knew that it would begin to exceed the new power limitation within a few months and had to act quickly. Evaluating other datacenter providers was considered, but the cost and complexity of migrating datacenters was extraordinary and would likely result in some downtime – an unacceptable option.
In reviewing its planned virtualization project, ImmobilienScout24 found that it could reduce power consumption and allow the company to continue its rapid growth into the future. However, this meant completing an eight-month project in just four months.
Giving the virtualization project priority, the ImmobilienScout24 team quickly got to work planning the migration of 200 old physical servers onto 90 new physical servers with more than 400 logical server instances.
The first challenge was in selecting a virtualization solution. In its test lab in Berlin, ImmobilienScout24 worked closely with their Operations Service provider, Computacenter to begin a series of tests to monitor and measure the performance of a variety of services on both physical and virtual machines. The company measured that services running on VMware typically showed a 20 percent performance degradation compared to services running on the physical server.
When it tested Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform virtualization capabilities, tests showed only a mere three percent difference between virtual and physical machines – an impressive virtualization performance result.
ImmobilienScout24 also considered pricing. Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform includes virtualization integrated in the operating system at no additional cost – a benefit few other vendors are able to deliver. It eliminates the need to add an additional, and often expensive, third-party vendor layer to its solution, while delivering leading performance. Combining performance and cost benefits, Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform was the solution of choice for ImmobilienScout24.
The second challenge ImmobilienScout24 faced was designing a system that would maximize redundancy and performance for each service. And, while also ensuring that the failure of one service would not affect the rest of the system. Achieving specific utilization levels was less important to ImmobilienScout24 than cutting energy and ensuring redundancy and uptime for the project.
So, ImmobilienScout24 worked closely with Computacenter to deploy Red Hat Cluster Suite, included in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform at no added cost, to create a comprehensive network design that included failover clusters between different physical machines. It also updated its Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers to support both 32- and 64-bit virtual machines. By carefully designing the clusters and physical and virtual machines, the team created a system that could easily accommodate future growth, while maintaining 100 percent uptime.
To manage its systems, ImmobilienScout24 also utilizes Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite, a reliable, easy-to-use systems management solution that provides simple tools to efficiently manage the lifecycle of systems on its network. With RHN Satellite, ImmobilienScout24 was able to streamline its management and reduce costs.
In the conception phase of the project there were sometimes up to ten people contributing to the project, but in the datacenters, the brunt of the project was implemented by a team of four. "Executing this rapidly with a fixed number of people simply would not have been possible with most other vendors," said Oliver Schindelhauer, project leader. "Administrative tasks including imaging, server provisioning, and mapping are really fast with Red Hat." The team started the project in February and was finished by the end of May—on schedule and without any downtime.
The project was considered an all-around success and resulted in significant savings for ImmobilienScout24. Power consumption was reduced by 25 percent – 21 megawatt hours per month – without affecting performance or uptime. Hardware cost per server was reduced by 60 percent, and the project reduced ImmobilienScout24's licensing costs by 50 percent with the use of open source software. The project also reduced operations costs by 10 percent through simplified system management.
"Without this solution we would not have been able to continue the growth that our executive team planned for the year," said Dr. Oliver Zeiler, chief technology officer for ImmobilienScout24. "But now, we have a significantly more agile and cost-efficient datacenter and services infrastructure. In fact, with the cost savings we've achieved with Red Hat, this project will have paid for itself in three months."

World Money Analyst Defeats Home Bias and Gives You International Streams of Investment Returns
Home bias destroys portfolios over time.
Home bias results from focusing only on domestic markets. Many investors fall victim to home bias because home markets are the easiest to trade and to track.
Doing so narrows your universe of opportunity and results in smaller gains than if you had a fully internationalized element of your portfolio.
It also piles all your risk in one place.
For example, if you trade US markets exclusively and the Federal Reserve makes a major misstep causing the markets to drop quickly, your entire portfolio takes a severe hit.
The solution to home bias, as you'll see below, is to look abroad for truly diverse opportunities that insulate you from domestic risk and give you a complementary stream of gain potential.
World Money Analyst from Mauldin Economics can help internationalize your portfolio (and your lifestyle) while giving you a chance at gains most US-based investors never see.
Led by Managing Editor Kevin Brekke, World Money Analyst only recommends global investment opportunities that meet TWO important criteria:
First, all recommended plays must trade on major, regulated global exchanges.
Second, all recommended plays must be able to be bought and sold via conventional, Internet-based, established brokerage accounts you can access from the US.
(A report currently available to World Money Analystreaders outlines possible brokerages if your current brokerage account is unsuitable.)
Recent gains you could've enjoyed, recommended by the global team of expert, local, on-the-ground investigators at World Money Analyst, include…
34.8% first-half-position gains in just one month from Russian airline Aeroflot
84% total return in 12 months when the Aeroflot position closed in January 2014
35.4% gains in 5 months from oil pipeline company Transneft
19.7% in 2 months on Indian IT giant Infosys
21.3% gains in just over a year from SingTel, a Singapore-based telecom company
The gains you see above are among the best performers of the past year. Had you participated in every play, you would've seen an average gain of 15.6%.
Though many of the gains delivered by World Money Analyst appeared in less than one year, World Money Analyst is NOT a short-term trading service.
Quick gains like you see above are an ancillary benefit of having an expert global team of on-the-ground analysts delivering a constant stream of opportunity to you.
In your monthly issues and action updates from World Money Analyst, you'll also see long-term internationalization strategies like currency plays, foreign real estate ideas, and details on lifestyle internationalization like how to obtain a second passport.
Below, you can meet the experts who contribute to your World Money Analyst monthly issues:

EAST KINGSTON —If you are a patron at the East Kingston Public Library, you may have received an email from the library administrator, Lola. ( I regretfully admit that I received one of these messages, too.) Recently, staff attended a workshop on our library circulation system and discovered many new ideas and tips. We were also able to present suggestions and requests. Some libraries in the state had already implemented this automatic reminder system for overdue items. We thought we would try it also. Our main focus is to keep the newest books in circulation and to honor reserve requests so everyone gets a chance to read their favorites. If you get a notice, call us. In most cases, we will be happy to renew your book or DVD. We can also advise you if another patron is waiting on the reserve list.
At the conference, we also got the opportunity to add some great services to our catalog. Watch for information on our website about new data base options and upgrades to the card catalog.
Check it out at the East Kingston Public Library and remember Lola is a very friendly computer.

Genetic findings have made an important contribution to the understanding of Alzheimer's disease. The mutations in β-amyloid precursor protein (βAPP) and presenilin 1 (PS1) transmitted in a simple Mendelian manner have provided the basis for our understanding of the central role of β-amyloid in all cases of Alzheimer's. Dr. Mullan suggested that whereas variability at the apolipoprotein E (APOE) locus is clearly associated with the occurrence of disease, for many other genes such clarity is less established.

Original recipe yields 8 servings
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, and salt. Rub in shortening between your fingers, forming evenly small lumps no larger than peas. Stir in water until dough can form a ball. Knead briefly to pull it together, then let rest for a few minutes. Roll out the dough to a about a 12 inch circle. Fit into a 9 inch pie plate, and prick with a fork. Top with another pie plate, and flip over. This method works best with thinner metal pans than glass pans.
- Bake the crust for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Cool, then flip back into the original pan. This process keeps the crust from sagging down into the pan without using pie weights.
- Meanwhile, stir together the cornstarch and 1 cup of sugar in a saucepan. Stir in the orange juice, water and lemon juice. Warm over medium heat, stirring occasionally until thickened and clear. Remove from heat, and chill.
- To assemble the pie, alternate layers of fresh sliced peaches with the chilled citrus sauce, beginning and ending with the sauce. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

The pie crust should be baked on the outside of the pan and after baking, place another pan over it and turn right side up. Gently lift the origianl pan off the crust and let cool. The crust will not shrink and will cover the pan. This was changed. Also chill before rolling out.
Thank You!!!! I'm chef for the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth and made this (25 of them) and a couple of other desserts for a retirement celebration. They absolutely LOVED it!!! And, if it pleases nuns (possibly the worlds harshest critics), you know it's very good! Thank you!

Simply wonderful served warm or cold with vanilla ice cream topping....or plain for the calorie minded.

Unless Congress acts, more than $600 billion in tax and spending provisions will change at the end of the year. And this will impose fiscal restraint at a time when the U.S. economy is growing very gradually.
But what is the fiscal cliff? What impact could it have on the economy? What are the most likely scenarios? And which companies most exposed to government spending stand to take a hit?

Parsons' music had roots in country music but fused country with R&B, soul, folk and rock. Parson's was naturally drawn to music as a child, and while his parents exposed him to multiple genres of music, they were both alcoholics and suffered from depression, with Parson's father committing suicide two days before Christmas in 1958. Parsons was 12 years old at the time of his father's death and was devastated. Seven years later, in 1965, Parsons' mother died of cirrhosis of the liver due to her years of chronic drinking.

Members of Downtown Hightstown, Inc. recently wrapped more than 50 lampposts in downtown Hightstown with garland and white lights, completely funded by private donations.
These lights and garlands compliment the wreaths already hung by the Rocky Brook Garden Club. This effort was originally started a few years ago by resident Chris Moraitis, and it has grown each year as more lights are added.
This year we added an additional 10 poles, so now all of Main Street is wrapped, including up Stockton Street, down Franklin Street, and the additional poles that were added in the Main Street parking lot. There are a few on Bank Street and Franklin Street that remain unwrapped, but we will hopefully add these next year. The downtown looks great lit up in lights!
If you want to join in on the fun, you are invited to our meetings on the second Wednesday of each month at the Hightstown Memorial Library at 7:30 p.m. We are always looking for motivated people to work on projects benefiting the downtown Hightstown area. Hope to see you there.

Faced with a one-goal, fourth-period deficit after controlling most of the match, the Cuesta College women's water polo team scored four goals in the final four minutes of an 11-9 comeback victory at Citrus on Wednesday.
With four goals from Rachel Gruetzmacher and two each from Molly Casey and America Hall, the Cougars led from the start, and Citrus only tied the score with a four-goal run in the third, capped by a score with four seconds left in the period.
Citrus (5-6) took its first lead of the match early in the fourth before Cuesta (13-2) roared back to even its Western State Conference record at 1-1.
"There was a little bit of a 'we're not going to let this happen to us' kind of thing," Cougars head coach Pete Schuler said. "It was a kind of nice gut check for the team."
Gruetzmacher, Casey and Karissa Sternfels, who also scored a goal, had three steals apiece for Cuesta, which will host seven of the top eight ranked teams in the state in the 10-team Rabobank Tournament this weekend.
The Cougars will play No. 5 Long Beach State on Friday at 10 a.m.

PLAY THROUGH: Halifax Country Club wrap-up
- Last Updated on 07:47 AM 05/31/13
- BY Ronnie Pate
Memorial Day has come and gone and with it, a very successful Member-Guest Golf Tournament at Halifax Country Club and a very tired but grateful Drew Lewis.
Drew, in his first of three years as tournament chairman, put together a committee that did a very good job of putting on a very tough tourney to run.
The golf course was in great shape, and the greens were as easy to play as I have ever seen. The tourney filled up with 72 teams, and there was some great play. The dinner was very good, and Sixth And Main put on a show Saturday night. If you have not heard this group yet, catch them at the Cantaloupe Festival.
Even though the weather was a little cool for this time of year, no one seemed to mind except the youngsters that were waiting for the pool to open.
Again, congratulations to all involved for a very classy-run affair.
This 'n' that
The whole community got some bad news this weekend on our good friend Jim Burton. The doctors at UNC Chapel Hill told him and his family that the cancer that has come back in his liver is very severe and almost impossible to halt.
Jim has fought leukemia and other types of cancer for over 20 years, and the old bird is a tough one.
Our prayers go out to Patricia, Jimbo and Luanna as they try to come to grips with this tragedy.
Jim is very aware of his predicament, and seems to be handling it the way all of his golfing buddies knew he would.
Jim was at Green's Folly Golf Course, and as a member of the Commonwealth Club, worked with me on the Member-Guest Tournament for some 20 years. When he moved to the Halifax Country Club, he served as president and accountant for the club and volunteered for several more functions.
The whole golfing community is holding its breath, hoping the doctors can contain the pain and keep Jim comfortable.
It seems the summer is rolling away too fast, and it has not even gotten warm until this week. The weather last week was like November, and a light coat or sweater was needed. Before we know it, it will be July.
Green's Folly Golf Course will be hosting its Member-Guest Golf Tournament in just two weeks, and like always, it falls on Father's Day and the week of the U.S. Open Golf Tournament.
The Open should be very easy for the press to cover this year, as the PGA is full of controversy and the public loves it. Everyone is wondering if Sergio will play close to Tiger or will even speak to him, and of course, Tiger could care less what the little fellow does.
The controversial ruling on the belly putter is still being watched, and the suit by V.J. over his doping is still what many consider a joke.
The summer is not half over and the press has plenty to add too or just make up.
The ladies of Halifax Country Club will host their annual Member-Guest Golf Tournament on Saturday at the club, and it should be a good one as they work hard on their tournaments.
On June 6, the senior men at the Folly will be hosting the seniors of Hat Creek for 18 holes of golf and a meal after play.
On June 8, the guys at Halifax Country Club will be holding the first of several qualifying rounds for this year's County Cup Golf Tournament.
The third way is to go by the course for more info. Mike Ross or Chris Dockrill will be more than happy to help you.
The golf camps are a welcome break for young guys and girls who like to learn the proper way to play golf from a bunch of qualified instructors that really take the time with each participant.
Both of the local courses are in great shape, but please remember with the coming of hot weather, please keep the golf carts away from the fringes and greens. It adds extra burden to the fringes that are coming out and the grass in and around the greens.
It was great to see a lot of old friends last week at Halifax Country Club during the Member-Guest Golf Tournament, and a few old legends like Jackie Thomasson, who played with Ronnie Moore. They finished third.
I know Jackie was proud when son Brad and his partner, Jeff Kidd, won the whole shooting match.
I will also make a mention of Joe Frank Fincher. He is more than a good appliance man. He got on stage Saturday night and did a great job on the song "Brown Haired Girl." I did not realize the old boy had that much talent.
With the warmer weather predicted for the upcoming weeks, be sure to consume more liquids to keep you healthier, and no Butch, I do not mean beer.
Have a great week, and we will have results of the ladies tournament for you next week.

Samson frequents the Brentwood dog park and can be usually seen leaping around Santa Monica, California. He is inquisitive, mischievous, wiggly, and adorable. His interests include chicken jerky, treats, ladies' laps, nibbling faces, French kisses, eating leaves, more treats, small squeaky rabbit toys, stretching in the sun, and chewing socks and underwear. He loves his daddy, so much so that he'll curl up outside the shower door every morning waiting for him to emerge. He's a notorious escape artist, takes an insane and infectious pleasure from meeting new people, and is phenomenally good at fetch. We just cannot be angry when he cocks his head in curiosity, or wiggles his whole little body in greeting, or stretches out backward with a drool-covered toy still clutched in his little mouth. We went to the rescue shelter just to get our feet wet and survey the options, came home with an eight-week-old puppy, and never once looked back. We have so much love for this little buddy.

Yeah, I took it out to make sure nothing was wrong and you could definitely hear a difference. -W
well thanks for the info.........any different sound to the engine now ??? thank Brian from Ontario, Canada
So far, so good. It looks better than the stock box. I was going to go with Airaid, but found this one at a little bit better price. I haven't gotten to drive the truck a lot since I installed it, so I'm not sure what if any MPG or obvious horsepower gains I'll get from it.
how do you like your new CAI .........thanks..Brian from Canada

Cover Story
Burning down the house
Why you'll never leave this band
Published: February 22, 2012
House Phone plays Thursday at midnight at the Polish National Alliance Hall Lounge with
Sisters of Your Sunshine Vapor, Passalacqua and Le Ren.
The first time House Phone singer James Linck played us the song "1,000 Years," we thought of Hamtown's Blowout.
It's a truly moving tune, a kind of a rocker with a buoyant synth intro and roaring guitar. But, there's this breakdown in the middle where Linck's high croon is singled out and he specifically addresses an imagined crowd: "To those who are still standing ..."
And we pictured this Blowout crowd: huddled humans spinning like tops, some bouncing off each other, their thoughts already curling out toward the 100 other bands they want to rush out and see ...
Could Linck's line be potent enough to stop the people from leaving? Would his strange soulful voice carry over?
Yes and yes. This spirited quintet would stop you. Their sound shows an elevated musical sensibility — four of the five are students of Wayne State University's jazz program, after all — so they can manhandle jazz as much as hip hop or anything else.
It started at a Halloween House Party in a Woodbridge basement three years ago, when 26-year-old guitarist Matt Callaway, (who's now finishing his senior recital at Wayne State), first spotted Linck performing an impassioned set with his first real band, James & the Rainbros, a blend of funk, reggae and Motown sucked through an indie filter.
Those were the kinds of guys Callaway knew that he would want to be in a band with ... the singer's voice was like nothing he'd ever heard, the bassist (fellow music student Ben Sturley) stayed steady, in the groove.
Callaway wanted a band that "gigs" and doesn't play music from a sheet or improvisational jazz in a lounge — but he wanted serious musicians.
So he joined up with the Rainbros' Sturley and Linck.
Soon after that Halloween party, the Rainbros broke up, and Sturley went around the Wayne State campus and recruited a squad of other comparably "serious" players to back up these new, R&B-inflected songs Linck had been writing. He assembled a dream team — with Callaway, he found Boegehold, still only 20, and pianist-keyboardist Taylor Pierson, 21 — guys who had discipline from the academic atmosphere, but also an inherent hunger, still yet unseasoned, making them ready to cut loose in the clubs. Enter House Phone.
"Ben, where's your bed?" drummer Stephen Boegehold asks Sturley at a House Phone rehearsal, up in the bare-bones attic in Linck's old Hamtramck duplex.
Ben gestures at their feet, the wooden floorboards in front of the drum kit. No mattress. A few instruments, some gear. Not much else. "Right here," Sturley says.
"You mean," Callaway says, "right where you and James have been ashing your cigarettes all this time?"
Callaway knew what he wanted: serious musicians; he just didn't know it'd look something like that. But Sturley and Linck brought him into what's become a seriously stacked band — able to effect a mellow, minimalist jazz-lounge sound as much as a fired-up fusion of space-rock, psych-pop and hip hop.
"I really didn't know what I was doing at first," Callaway says. "I had played the rock thing a little, but never in any 'rock bands.' I guess sometimes you're better at something when you don't know you can do it ... somehow."
"In school, you have specific goals, different goals than we would in this band," Pierson says. "At school, you have to use all the tools you have all the time, constantly exercising them, but at this point, [the band's] just a chance to finally apply what you have — it's just second nature at this point; a total release."
House Phone next recorded an EP in 2010 only to see Sturley leave for a house-band gig aboard a cruise ship. (He's now playing with Jessica Hernandez & the Deltas.) So the band got bassist Jeff Cuny, who played with Pierson in some funk-reggae quartet.
Sturley "was such an idea person," Callaway says. "But Jeff's greatest quality is he can hear something, latch onto it really fast" — he snaps his fingers — "and play something interesting off of it."
"It was my first day at Wayne, actually," says 22-year-old Cuny, when Taylor mentioned House Phone needed a bass player.
Sturley's departure led Linck to step up as, essentially, a bandleader, something that "was kind of surreal, at first, having 20-year-olds look up to you, for what to do," Callaway says.

A wrenching portrayal of the brutality of Christ's crucifixion.
Click on the order button below to download this Movie Discussion Guide as a Microsoft Word file. You'll receive a Bible-based guide for personal use or group discussion after the movie. No additional preparation is required.
Easter is the most significant holiday on the Christian calendar. For those who claim Christ as Savior and Lord, it marks the day on which the major event of our faith took place. Without the resurrection, our faith would be in vain. Yet before Christ experienced the victory over death that gives us new, eternal life, he experienced the brutality of crucifixion. The days of his arrest, trial, death by crucifixion, and triumphant resurrection are depicted in The Passion of the Christ, directed by Mel Gibson.
Use this discussion guide to look more deeply at the themes of this movie. With which characters do you most readily identify, and what can you learn about your faith by exploring that identification? Who was Jesus, and why does his identity matter? What roles do fear and power play in this story, and what does it mean to carry a cross?

Catastrophic Payments and Impoverishment Due to Out-of-Pocket Health Spending: The Effects of Recent Health Sector Reforms in IndiaWorking Paper
Soumitra Ghosh - Assistant Professor at Centre for Health Policy, Planning and Management, Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS)
Issued by
Asia Health Policy Program working paper #15, July 2010
Out-of-pocket payments are the principal source of health care finance in most Asian countries, and India is no exception. This fact has important consequences for household living standards. In this paper the author explores significant changes in the 1990s and early 2000s that appear to have occurred as a result of out-of-pocket spending on health care in 16 Indian states. Using data from the National Sample Survey on consumption expenditure undertaken in 1993–94 and 2004–05, the author measures catastrophic payments and impoverishment due to out-of-pocket payments for health care. Considerable data on the magnitude, distribution and economic consequences of out-of-pocket payments in India are provided; when compared over the study period, these indicate that new policies have significantly increased both catastrophic expenditure and impoverishment.

Times West Virginian
The night, like the offensive glass, belonged to Kevin Jones on Thursday at the Coliseum as West Virginia University bullied its way past an undermanned and overmatched Alcorn State team, 97-62, to improve its record to 2-1.
Jones pulled down 13 rebounds while scoring a career-high 29 points, 10 of those rebounds coming off the offensive glass.
The third one was really special, though, as it broke Chris Brooks' record of 320 career offensive rebounds. Brooks played for Gale Catlett from 1988 to 1991.
"I have to thank my teammates," he said in acknowledging the record, sounding as if this was another of those "ho-hum, I set a record" quotes before he added "for missing all those shots."
That brought about a laugh, but it wasn't only his teammates' shots that he rebounded. In fact, there was one red-faced moment in the game for Jones when he actually missed a dunk.
Of course, the ball came right back to him for one of his offensive rebounds and another basket.
"He is what he is," forward Deniz Kilicli said. "When it goes up, it's his ball."
"I'm more happy with the win than the record," he admitted. "But being No. 1 at something, being the best at that moment, is special."
How special has Jones been through his first three years and three games at WVU?
"When it's all said and done, he's had a Hall of Fame career," coach Bob Huggins said. "He's going to be in the top 10 in scoring and in rebounding."
But he has been special more than just on the basketball court, as Huggins would point out.
"He has worked so hard and is such a wonderful guy. You can't imagine how good he is to work with, not just for the basketball staff but everyone around the Coliseum," Huggins said.
The work is important, but the ability to grab offensive rebounds is almost instinctual.
"I have a natural knack for it, but you have to practice it. I have to find my man, hit him first, then get better position than him," he said, before adding a jab at his New York running mate Truck Bryant.
"I've seen enough missed shots with Truck." he said, wearing a smile with his No. 5 uniform jersey.
Huggins was asked if there is one trait all the great rebounders have.
"Good hands," he said. "Think of the great offensive rebounders – Malone, Silas, Rodman … they were not great jumpers but they had great hands."
Coming off a defeat to Kent State, this was an important game for WVU to regain some pride and for their freshmen and senior guard Bryant to regain some confidence, all of which was accomplished with a 35-point victory.
"Who looked at the schedule and didn't think we'd win this one?" Huggins said, honest as always.
Jones took matters into his own good hands early. He admits he had the rebounding record in the back of his mind when he took the floor, but he was also ready to put the points up.
He hit WVU's first seven points, including a 3-point shot, and 10 of his 15 points were second-chance points, getting WVU out to a 21-12 lead. It went to 24-12 moments later against this team that won only four games all of last year when walk-on Paul Williamson of Logan hit a 3 for his first three career points.
Alcorn hung around for a while, but a late run in the first half allowed WVU to take a 44-28 lead in at halftime.
The second half was no contest as Jones, Bryant and point guard Gary Browne buried the visitors.
Bryant, coming off what he called "the worst game of my career" against Kent State, finished with 18 points and four assists without a turnover.
Browne wound up with 12 rebounds and eight points to go with four assists.
Kevin Noreen had 12 points, while Kilicli and Jabarie Hinds added 10.
WVU plays again Tuesday in Charleston against Morehead State.

Despite some modest improvements to Indiana's economy and a tenuous stabilization of the State's revenues, the next two-year budget will see very little revenue growth over the previous two-year budget cycle. Our public schools and state colleges should brace themselves for more education cuts. And yet, in these difficult economic times, Indiana is turning a blind eye to hundreds of millions of dollars in state sales tax revenue that under existing law should be paid to the State of Indiana. The sales tax dollars that are presently going uncollected are taxes that should be paid on purchases made over the internet.
While estimates vary, the non-partisan National Conference of State Legislatures estimates that by 2012 Indiana will lose an estimated $400 million in sales tax revenue each year.
Here is how this occurs: Under existing law, retailers with a physical presence in our communities such as Target or Best Buy are required to collect and remit Indiana's 7 percent sales tax on every sale they make directly to the Indiana Department of Revenue. Online retailers, however, lacking a physical presence in the state, are not required to collect and remit the Indiana sales tax. Instead, it is up to individuals to keep track of all their online purchases throughout the year and then complete a Schedule 4 form on their Indiana individual tax return and remit the sales tax due from the online purchases. Last year, out of 3.1 million individual tax returns filed with the state, only 24,000 individuals filed a Schedule 4 form and the sales tax remitted totaled only $1.4 million. This falls well short of the $400 million annually that is estimated to be due the state.
Certainly, while the state loses sales tax revenues in this equation, the biggest losers are the thousands of Indiana retailers with storefronts and a physical presence throughout our communities. These brick and mortar retailers say that the biggest threat to their profitability is not the economy or rival competitors in the community, but rather it is online retailers. These local retailers, who build stores, hire employees, and pay property taxes to fund our local schools and to pay for police and fire service operate on the slimmest of profit margins often in the range of 5 percent.
Online retailers who do not have any physical presence in the state are handed an immediate 7 percent price advantage on every sale because online retailers are not required to collect and remit sales taxes.
States throughout the country such as New York, North Carolina, Illinois, Colorado, Rhode Island, Vermont, Arkansas and Hawaii, have taken legislative action to close this sales tax loophole that currently allows online retailers such as Amazon.com and Overstock.com to gain an unfair price advantage over local retailers in our community. There may have been a time in the 1990s when online retailers actually needed a boost to jump start their sales, but now 20 years later, when these online retailers sell goods totaling $33 billion with growth in the range of 10 percent per year, they no longer need a government conferred handout at the expense of retailers with a physical presence in our communities.
If you are a local retailer or someone who cares about our state's ability to adequately fund public education and important programs such as corrections or health care for the aged and disabled, please contact your state legislator and ask them to support tax fairness and require online retailers to collect sales taxes on purchases just like the brick and mortar retailers are presently required to do.
