2001 OPEN FORUM Abstracts
Virginia DeFilippo, MS, RRT, Jeffrey Topal, MD, Lynn Tanoue, MD, Patricia Reagan-Cirincione, Ph.D., Yale-New Haven Hospital, New Haven, Connecticut
Background: Closed system suction catheters (CSSC) are changed at 24 hour intervals by manufacturer recommendation. Several studies have examined extending CSSC changes from 24 hours to 7 days using Ventilator Associated Pneumonia Rate (VAPR) as an outcome measure for practice change, with no statistically significant change in VAPR noted. We evaluated the effect on VAPR of changing CSSC from every 24 hours to 7-day intervals with the ventilator circuit change at our institution. Additionally, we evaluated the number of CSSC failures during the first 2 months of the study.
Method: The study was conducted in the Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU). Respiratory Care and MICU staff were informed of the study. For a six-month period, mechanically ventilated patients had CSSCs changed on a 7-day interval when the ventilator circuit was changed rather than a daily change. VAPR was used as an outcome measure. Historical data on VAPR from the 6 months prior to the practice change were used as a comparative baseline. A CSSC could be changed at less than 7 days depending on the integrity of the unit as assessed by the respiratory care practitioner. All CSSCs requiring change-out before 7 days due to integrity or other issues were tracked. Respiratory Care staff were instructed to record any CSSC failures during the first 2 months of the study. Staff recorded the reason for the failure and the number of days the CSSC was used. A CSSC failure was defined as any situation in which the respiratory therapist deemed the integrity of the CSSC to be unsatisfactory. During the study, there were 169 ventilated patients with 1,342 ventilator days and 25,745 ventilator hours. Average ventilator length of stay was 6.35 days. Epidemiology and Infection Control staff monitored VAPRs. VAPR data was collected in compliance with National Nosocomial Infection Surveillance (NNIS) criteria. One way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was performed for statistical analysis.
Results: Daily vs. 7 Day CCCS Changes:
Daily | 7-Day | ||
Mean Ventilator Days | 253.3 | 223.7 | p = .33 |
Mean VAPR | 13.7 | 3.6 | p = .04 |
CSSC Failure Data:
Ventilator Days | 407 |
Ventilated Patients | 69 |
Catheters Used | 113 |
Catheter Failures | 8 |
Avg # of days use before catheter failure | 4.5 |
% Catheter failures to catheters used | 7.07% |
Conclusion: There was a significant reduction in VAPR with CSSC changes every seven days versus daily changes. The seven-day catheter failure rate was 7.07%. Since the sample size was small a further confirmation of these findings is recommended.

Latest College Basketball
Creighton's Doug McDermott deflects attention. Except for Saturday when he went off for 45 points to surpass 3,000 for a career on Senior Night.
The senior forward became the eighth player in NCAA men's D-I history to hit the historic points landmark.
The Colonels took out the top two seeds in the Ohio Valley tournament and are back in the big dance for the first time since 2007.
Saturday has several teams facing chances to pick up marquee wins.
We've been blessed with a lot of really good Saturday this season. The finale for regular-season hoops was among the best.
Arizona lost to Oregon, but it doesn't jeopardize its No. 1 seed yet.
The Cardinals toyed with UConn Saturday, wining big. As Louisville enters the AAC tournament, isn't it fair to say this team is among the top five most likely to win it all?
The Gators locked up a No. 1 seed on Saturday by completing a running of the league table in the conference. Clearly the title favorite going forward.
Iowa State fans flopped during Marcus Smart's introduction on Saturday.
Andrew Wiggins had one of the best performances of the season on Saturday, scoring 41 points in a loss to West Virginia.
Cincinnati's Sean Kilpatrick, UConn's Shabazz Napier and Louisville's Russ Smith are among the 15 players up for the award. That means the American has three representatives.
With two years remaining on his six-year contract, St. John's head coach Steve Lavin is in talks for an extension.
Conference play ends this weekend and a few more championships get decided. Also, where can bids be "stolen" this year?
The Shockers are now just two wins away from taking a 34-0 record to Selection Sunday.
North Dakota State has the Coach of the Year and the Player of the year. The Bison should take the league's automatic bid, too.

Survivor Story: Tammy Andries
My story is one of hope and one of success. However, my story starts out like so many others.
Although I had no risk factors and no symptoms, I was told at the age of 39 that I had been diagnosed with a rare form of pancreatic cancer. In fact, of the 37,000 people diagnosed with the disease that year, only about 2,500 would be diagnosed with my kind: a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, or islet-cell tumor.
I was one of the lucky ones: my 8-centimeter mass, which was the size of a grapefruit, was operable. My doctor performed the Whipple procedure flawlessly. My husband and three children, ages 5, 7 and 9, were happy to learn that my surgeon got all of the cancer cells.
Doctors found my tumor completely by accident. While we were traveling to visit friends in June of 2005, I began to experience severe pain so we had to stop in at an emergency room in Eau Claire, WI, for what turned out to be kidney stones. When I was examined then, they didn't catch the tumor.
Later, when we returned home to Waunakee, WI, the medication I was taking was not relieving my pain, and I went to another ER.� During that visit, they performed a CT scan, I learned about the tumor on the head of my pancreas, and was told that I needed to see a doctor right away. Making an appointment like this would normally be easy to do, but we had just moved, so it was even harder.
After a little research, I found a doctor, got a second opinion, located a surgeon, and had the operation in the span of three weeks. I stayed in the hospital for seven days; during two of those days, they were unable to control the pain, which was excruciating.
Everyone asks me if I had any signs of symptoms, to which I answer no. I had always been healthy: I did not drink and did not smoke. This diagnosis came out of the blue.
I am happy to report that as of March 2009, I am a three-year survivor of pancreatic cancer. Because I am a survivor, I am able to advocate for so many others who cannot speak for themselves. We need early detection screening tools, and we need money for researchers to study this disease, which is the fourth deadliest type of cancer.
In health,
Tammy L. Andries
Waunakee, Wisconsin

About carlosjii
maybe these guys get BIG LOBBY $$$$$ from NSA contractors. I wonder if NSA adds lobby $$ to its contracts as passthrus???????????????
a warning?
Excess generally causes reaction, and produces a change in the opposite direction, whether it be in the seasons, or in individuals, or in governments.
Tighten your seatbelts - we are soon to be the most oppressive government on the planet. How about martial law? It could be coming

Here's your chance to see five prodigious, piano-playing, twentysomething siblings make a Rachmaninoff prelude look as easy to play as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
The 5 Browns, the classical piano troupe described above, will visit The Steinway Long Island Piano Gallery at 505 Walt Whitman Road in Melville on Feb. 18.
The performance, which starts at 7 p.m., could be a great way to inspire budding young pianists – or give them inferiority complexes.
Here's a clip of the Browns at work:
And here's a bit from the statement:
Steinway & Sons is proud to announce a special appearance of The 5 Browns — classical music's hottest phenomenon — at the new Steinway & Sons Piano Gallery, Long Island. On February 18 at 7:00 p.m., The 5 Browns will perform several selections to celebrate the release of their first book, Life Between the Keys. The performance will be followed by a Q&A session and a book and CD signing made possible through Barnes & Noble Booksellers.
The 5 Browns are sibling Steinway artists, all in their twenties, who are conquering the worldwide classical music scene with sold-out performances. Dubbed the "Fab Five" by People magazine, Ryan, Melody, Gregory, Deondra, and Desirae Brown attended Juilliard simultaneously, have released three #1 albums, spent months at the top of the Billboard Classical chart, appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and continue to wow audiences worldwide. The siblings have just completed a tour of China and are now appearing throughout the United States to support their new book and CD publication.
"All pianos other than Steinway are like a box of chocolates…you never know what you're going to get," said The 5 Browns. "Because of Steinway's beautiful consistency and quality, we are able to have five pianos that sound as one."
The 5 Browns are exclusive Steinway artists, and they travel with two Steinway D and three Steinway B concert grands, with the help of a dedicated truck provided by Wheaton Van Lines.

Guest Author - Launa Stout
Here are a few ideas to get you thinking about all the wonderful soup meals you like to prepare for when the kids come in with rosy cheeks from raking the leaves, or when the family returns from a brisk walk to see the different colors of the leaves as they fall from the trees.
Save any juices from cooked or canned vegetables and mushrooms to use when you make a soup (you can keep them all frozen till you need to use them
Never throw out bones from steak, roasts or chops until you have extracted all the good from them in the form or soup or a stock. If you dont want to do it now you can wrap them and put them in the freezer till you need them
Leg and knuckle bones are really great for soup
Roast the soup bones before you put them in a liquid salt them slightly and put in a pan in the oven at 375 degrees until brown and they have a tasty aroma. This will help to improve the color and flavor of your soup
Put the soup bones and meat in cold salted water to cook in order to get the best flavor
Sauté, in butter any vegetables you plan to add to the soup
Add those vegetables at the end of the cooking time to keep them crisp and not mushy
If you want a green soup pound some raw spinach in a mortar and tie the pounded leaves in a cheesecloth, wring the juice into the soup 5 minutes before serving
If you soup is too thin, put some cooked vegetables in the blender or through a strainer and then add that puree to the soup
Another way to thicken it is with using cornstarch. Mix ¼ cup cornstarch with 3 tablespoons milk and then add it to the soup
The most important part of an onion soup is the base- so never try to make French Onion Soup without a good rich stock
Get yourself a stock pan- it is a tall narrow kettle if you are using a regular low-sided pot the liquids will all evaporate too fast
Are you ready for a soup challenge?
Try to keep a pot of soup going on the stove during the hot weather-
Boil it up once a day and simmer it covered for at least 10 minutes.
Add more water or liquids as they are needed toss in leftovers from vegetable and meat dishes.
The flavor will continue to improve as days go by.
Thrown in a can of beans or a handful of macaroni or any other type of pasta every so often.
This can feed you family with great nutrition and for very little cost.
Put the soup in the fridge daily.
Bake a loaf of homemade bread- I always said that my family would eat anything if there was fresh bread to go with it. And they knew that they didn't get the second piece of bread until you are on the second bowl of soup!

Found this '08 oddity randomly. "BoppaDooAyDoo Style Ale," poured from a 22oz bottle into a Spiegelau tulip.
A: Pours a brownish-black with a small tan-head. A little bit of lacing.
S: Molasses, brown sugar, a bit of mushy dried fruit like prune, a bit of chocolate.
T: Tastes more like a dark barleywine than an RIS. Smooth dark fruit (fig, prune, raisin), roasted grain, brown sugar, subtle chocolate, a little bit of alcohol. A bit of oxidation and metallic notes in the middle.
M: Very fine carbonation with a relatively thick body.
O: Not nearly as bad as I expected. Obviously past its prime, yet still pretty tasty.

Found this at a store. Only after I bought it did I realize it was a one time release in 2008. Had I known this, I probably wouldn't have bought it. I'm trying this today 3/3/12.
Poured from a 22 ounce bottle into a Samuel Smith Pint.
A- Black cola like in color. Huge fluffy tan head that lingers for a bit. Lots of retention on the glass. So far so good.
S- Slightly sour, coffee cocoa powder, chocolate, raisins, roasted malts.
T- It isn't bad considering its age. I'm getting a lot of malt, with some raisins and chocolate. Its also a bit sour with a lingering coffee like bitter aftertaste.
M- Thick and oily, very little carbonation.
O- Memories of what once was a solid stout is what I got from this. Not bad considering its age, but definitely not something I'd try again. Definitely past its prime. I'll finish the glass but not so sure I want to finish the bottle.

This is a cellared bottle I've had since August, 2009. I've poured it into my Lion's Pride tulip.
The beer is opaque and colored dark brown. Small spots of ruby are visible where the light makes its way through the liquid. A thin head of tan foam formed as I poured the beer, but now it has settled to a mere skim. Swirling the glass leaves plenty of film and patchy foam on the sides, but the head itself doesn't reform. Streams of carbonation can be seen rising to the top, but only near the top and right at the sides of the glass.
The beer still has plenty of big chocolate notes in the aroma. There is still some alcohol discernible. Also present is a scent that recalls dark fruits, like plum. It is still an enticing aroma 2+ years after bottling.
The flavor is still good as well, although no longer too complex or robust. Chocolate, raisin, coffee bitterness and alcohol are all present. There isn't too much sweetness, although you can still tell this is a malt forward beer. There is also still a roasted aspect, but it is minor. I can taste it as the beer first hits my tongue, but it doesn't last long.
The beer is full-bodied and has medium carbonation levels. The bubbles still manage to tickle my tongue. A pretty good layer of stickiness is left on my lips, but the internal coat isn't too thick.
This stout is enjoyable, but it is probably past its peak at this point. I never drank it fresh, so I can't know for sure. If you have a bottle in your cellar, I'd recommend opening it soon. If you never were able to try it, don't go looking for a bottle now.

Wacky Weather Keeps Dubuque Students Out of Schoolby Katie Wiedemann, Reporter
DUBUQUE, Iowa - It's been an off again, on again kind of week for students in Dubuque. On Monday, Dubuque community schools were closed due to an ice storm. With record temperatures on Tuesday, some students walked to school without wearing coats. After school students got caught in the rain. On Wednesday schools were closed, once again. This time because of the almost five inches of snow that fell on Dubuque.
In a rare move, Clarke University even cancelled classes. It's funny how a few inches of snow turns men into little boys. Especially when classes are cancelled. Clarke University Student Quentin Johnson said, "When we found out classes were called off, we all ran out into the halls and woke up everyone else. It was pretty exciting. " For many of the first year students at Clarke University, the recent weather pattern is anything but typical. Johnson said, "yesterday I was wearing shorts and a t-shirt, now I am all bundled up." This is the first time in several years the University has cancelled all classes for the entire day. Clarke University Student Bryan Harris said, "To go from t-shirt and shorts to having to bundle up right now. I've never had that happen. " While this weather is first for many, a little game of two hand touch football in the snow, takes them right back to the familiar. "we always have a little kid in us," said Harris "we see snow we want to play. " Because of Wednesday's cancellation, The last day of classes for the Dubuque community schools is now set for June 6th.

Well....while at the metrodome today my wife put in a bid for an AP framed and autographed picture.
She never really thought the opening bid would win, but hey, it did.
Anyway, anyone know anything about this outfit?
The website looks pretty legit, and since they were at the dome, I am assuming they should be fine.

By 3 to 6 months, most babies take three or sometimes four naps per day, says Mindell. Your job right now is to fine-tune your baby's nap habits. One of the smartest ways to do that is to wean yourself off some of the more common sleep "crutches" parents of new babies rely on. That means no routine naps in the stroller, car seat, baby sling, or swing. I'm guilty as charged there: When Daniel was an infant, those were the only places he would sleep during the day. I can't count how many times I'd tiptoe into our apartment, gingerly set down the car seat, and pray he wouldn't wake up. It was our nanny, hired when the baby was 3 months old, who had the guts (and the experience) to place the baby in his crib when she figured he was sleepy. Sure enough, he would always doze off. "Parents are often stunned when their babies fall asleep on their own," says Mindell. Not only should you trust your baby's ability to master this important skill, but you should encourage it. "By 3 months, you really want your child taking naps in the same place he sleeps at night; this is when good habits form." When the Patterns Aren't Forming Your baby's not with the program yet? Could be you're missing the signals. After all, it's not as if you can ask her if she's sleepy. To get your little one on track, says Mindell, start with a morning nap; this will likely be the most predictable of the day, and should occur about two hours after your baby wakes -- even if she doesn't seem tired. So if she rises at 6:30 a.m., put her down at about 8:30. "Before long, you'll find that she starts rubbing her eyes and getting sleepy at exactly that time," Mindell says. Create an afternoon nap ritual, too. When you determine what time the baby gets tired, initiate a lunch routine that begins one hour before naptime.It's a difficult balancing act with the second child, though. I can't keep Belle home all day, every day just so Wes can nap. If I could get him to take an early morning nap, at 8:30 a.m. like the article says, that we should still be able to get out of the house later in the morning. I guess that means getting him up earlier. He's usually up once an hour between 5 and 8 a.m.; I just tend to keep putting him back to bed until Belle wakes up, so I can squeeze in a few more zzzzz's myself. But if I got him "up†around 6:30, then he'd be ready for a nap by 8:30. And we probably need a nap routine, too. Swaddle him up, rock him, nurse him and put him in his bed (instead of his baby seat or swing). Ironically, as I'm writing this, I'm watching him doze off in the frontpack. Better go try to move him to his bed… Full story »

HARRISONVILLE, Pa.—
Editor's note: This is the first of three days of coverage regarding missing persons in the Tri-State area.The Herald-Mail reached out to law enforcement agencies to obtain information about individuals reported missing. They include Revell Jeeter of Harrisonville, Pa.; Arthur Murray of Williamsport; Mary Jean Olshefski-Beatty of Bunker Hill, W.Va.; and Melissa Moreland, who lived with her parents near Paw Paw, W.Va.
Their stories will be told Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
If there is a missing-persons case you would like to be profiled in The Herald-Mail, call 301-791-7281. Each case must have been reported to a law enforcement agency.
The only ones who know where Revell Jeeter is could very well be his dog and the person who might have killed him.
In July 2003, Jeeter took his beloved dog, Bubba, to buy steaks at a McConnellsburg, Pa., butcher shop. It was the last sighting of Jeeter before he disappeared.
Pennsylvania State Police believe Jeeter to be a homicide victim. His sister, Jeanette Endley, came to the same conclusion herself as the years passed without solid insight into what happened to her older brother.
"I highly doubt he's alive," she said. "If he was, I'd be so happy, so overjoyed."
Revell Jeeter, who was born in August 1943, had moved to 12 acres in the Harrisonville area of Fulton County to enjoy his retirement surrounded by mountains and peacefulness. Those who knew him said he mostly kept to himself.
A friend reported Jeeter missing July 21, 2003, after he did not attend a crab feed where he was expected. Initially, police and firefighters searched on foot and with a helicopter as they fanned out from Jeeter's Buck Road property.
"There were a couple searches conducted," Trooper Richard J. Cutchall said.
Later, a cadaver dog was added to the search party to go through brush.
Police found Jeeter's PT Cruiser, firearms and wallet, and his all-terrain vehicle was with a neighbor who said he had been fixing it. Those who knew Jeeter said the most telling clue that he had not left voluntarily was the discovery of Bubba in his home.
"It's like somebody just vanished. Everything was there but him," Cutchall said.
"It just hits you like a ton of bricks," said Endley, who had been leaving her brother voicemails before the friend reported him missing.
Rumors, tips and clues cropped up from time to time through the years.
A trained dog honed in on a spot on a neighboring farm. That area was dug up to no avail.
A man called police about a psychic's vision that Jeeter's body had been discarded in an abandoned well off Back Hollow Road. In February 2009, the McConnellsburg Fire Department helped police drain two wells there.
One tip claimed Jeeter, who retired from a Carroll County, Md., roads crew, had been spotted in the South.

Is there a way to import the following point data. It is a .txt file. There are not so many points, but each one is important. Ideally, each point that is placed, would be identified with it's own point label with the same point number as in the file.
I tried Import point cloud in 2013, but you can hardly see the points. What is more, since the points are not labeled, you have no idea which point is which.
I need a workflow for a small , yet very meaningful quantity of points. That is why I want to be able to identify each point in the cloud.
Thanks in avance for sharing your insights !
If you save that to an excel sheet you could import the points into a 3D sketch, but I'm not sure how you'd get the points to be labeled.

What are you going to do with the points?
A named 3D Sketch for each point would be one method.
You can control the size of the points from Tools>Application Options>General Tab>Annotation Scale.
You can toggle the representation as Points/Center Points upper right corner in the sketch environment.
Hello JD and thanks for your interest.
The points have been gathered by a field surveyor. They represent the dimensional boundaries of an architectural assembly (Example : staircase or a Store front)
Once we get these points, we establish a surface model of the job gemoetry. We use this model to derive parts from it, and/or use it in a top down skeletal model.
See attached pic.
It appears to me that the coordinates of many points are approximations - for example, for all practical purposes these are all 100
You might have Excel round them or simply round them yourself (with such a small number of points).
If rounding is appropriate and acceptable -
I would put in to 2D sketches as Named Sketch Blocks on appropriate planes.
Hello JD,
The data is in meters with the benchmark at 100 meters. All dimensions are relative to the bench mark.
Therefor, 99.987m is 13 mm away from 100 m. (100m-99.987m = 0.013m)
That is the convention by which field surveyors get data on a total station.
I hope that makes sense !?
point cloud is 3D cordinate system and its created by a 3D scanners, its represent set of points for measuring a device.

When we asked Editor-at-Large Dave Erickson to interview journalist James Fallows about his experience at the helm of the Agenda 2002 conference, we imagined the article might include Fallows' insights into the conference industry, and perhaps commentary on the environmental and organizational elements he'd experienced at events over the years that had shaped his philosophy for Agenda. After all, Fallows is an observer for a living — a national correspondent for The Atlantic Monthly and a National Public Radio commentator. Surely we've never featured such a noteworthy pundit.
As it turns out, we didn't get exactly what we expected. Fallows, to our surprise, claims little interest in the conference business or how it works, and he has only attended a handful of tech-industry meetings. What we did find was an executive producer with keen observations of the PC industry who wasn't afraid to bring his journalistic independence to the podium, and a company — IDG Executive Forums — willing to risk change and take a chance on creativity.
In choosing Fallows, IDG brought in a true event-industry outsider to revive its Agenda conference. IDG's approach can teach us a lot about good conference management, or management in general, for that matter: Hire the best minds, build a support structure around them that helps them to succeed, and be flexible if change is needed.
"We believe this is a talent-based business," says IDG Executive Forums president Lia Lorenzano, who hired Fallows after a nine-month search. "He brought an incredible perspective." Fallows worked hard to fill the agenda with speakers who were "interestingly off-topic" and changed the format to fit his background, creating what he calls a "live magazine."
For more on Agenda 2002, turn to page 22. Let me know what you think and how you keep your events on the leading edge. Drop me a note at firstname.lastname@example.com, and share your ideas on fostering change, surprising your audience, and creating a leadership role for your conference.
Enjoy the issue,

I have been using a BD-RE for testing my projects. Whenever Encore is ready to burn to the disk, even I checked 'Automatically erase rewritable disk..." on the Build screen, the program will attempt to erase and later come back with a device not ready error message. I suspect it has a built-in timer which times out before the BD-RE is fully erased. I have to start this process three times, and finally it starts burning.
Is there another way to erase the BD-RE?
Sorry Paddy, this is not a free bit of software and it may not be the best thing for your needs. At the office we use it for burning data discs mostly and making single copies of things. It's actually got quite a few features including simple blu-ray authoring, although that may be an add-on feature.

PayPal to the author would be nice, if the program works for you

LOVES PARK, IL. (Saturday, June 6, 2009) -- Jerry Gille held off late advances from Ryan Carlson and Ricky Bilderback to collect his first Stanley Steemer NASCAR Late Model feature win of 2009 tonight at the Rockford Speedway. Several late cautions gave Carlson and Bilderback opportunities to make their move late but Gille was too tough and managed to prevail. Doug Bennett, BJ Sparkman and Bobby Frisch also collected feature wins in front of an enthusiastic crowd on Kar Korner's World Famous Trailer Race Night.
The Stanley Steemer NASCAR Late Models 30-lap main event was full of action early as Tim Noble turned around Mikie Breiner to bring out the caution on lap two. Breiner got loose entering turn three and Noble couldn't check up in time causing a multi-car pileup. Jon Reynolds Jr, Tyler Peterson and Tim Sargent were also involved in the accident. Noble and Kyle Shear were both sent to the tail end of the 18 car field for their roles in the wreck.
Mark Hartline inherited the lead on the restart as defending champion Jerry Gille quickly jumped into second. Gille worked his way by Hartline on lap four bringing 17-year-old Michael Bilderback with him into the runner-up spot. Seven-time track champion Ricky Bilderback managed to get by Hartline for third when a Dave Edwards' spin in turn one brought out the second caution of the race with 13 laps remaining.
On the restart, Ricky worked his way by his nephew Michael for second and Ryan Carlson followed him into the third position. Ricky "the Rocket" had just grabbed the inside lane on Gille when John Beinlich spun around in turn two with nine laps to go. In a smart piece of strategy, Carlson took the inside lane on the restart and worked his way past Bilderback for second. The caution came out again in short order for an unassisted Jake Gille spin on the backstretch.
After a quick four laps, another John Beinlich spin created a three lap shootout between Jerry Gille, Carlson and Ricky Bilderback. Gille managed to hold off a late charge from Carlson to collect his first feature win of 2009.
"I'm a points racer and that's all I've ever been but wins are nice," a satisfied Gille stated in victory lane. "We've had our run of bad luck this year and we weren't the fastest car in the feature so it was nice to have things break our way tonight."
Ricky Bilderback, Michael Bilderback and Shear completed the top five.
The racing was fast and furious in the beginning of the 25-lap Bargain Hunter Sportsman feature as points leader Fred Nason's night ended early after he knocked down the turn three wall with just one lap in the books. Don Exline, Chris Ehrhart and Butch Swinbank also got tangled up in the four-car accident.
Brodhead, WI. native Doug Bennett, looking to move up in points after the early incident, jumped in front of Brock Behnke on the restart.
Utica, WI.'s Kurt Kleven made his move with 20 laps remaining, working his way past Scott Lawver and Behnke into second as Bennett maintained a healthy lead. Kleven's night didn't end the way he wanted though, as he fell off the pace with eight laps remaining and exited into the pits for the evening.
Bennett fended off a late move by Behnke for his second feature win of the season. Bennett also inherited the points lead from Nason grabbing the top spot in the standings for the first time in 2009.
Lawver, Ron Morris and Ricky Nielson rounded out the top five.
Rachel Sparkman led the 21 car field to green in the Budweiser American Short Trackers 25-lap headliner. Matt Booker brought out the caution flag five laps in after making hard contact with the turn three wall and collecting David Russell in the process. Russell's rear end was sheared off when he made contact with the outside wall and both drivers were forced to head home early.
BJ Sparkman, who set a new track record in qualifying, used the restart to propel himself into the top two, taking second away from Scott Hoeft with 17 laps remaining. BJ then set his sights on his niece, Rachel, for the lead, grabbing the top spot two laps later.
George Sparkman made it a family affair up front, working his way past Zach Rodriguez into third with 11 laps remaining after his daughter, Rachel, fell off the pace. George Sparkman got past Hoeft for second with eight to go but that's as far as he would get as BJ Sparkman held off his older brother over the final eight laps to collect his second win of 2009.
Hoeft, rookie Kyle Lapier and Steve Erickson Jr. finished off the top five.
"Big Kid" Mike Swanson made his way out front early in the 20 lap Mtn Dew RoadRunner feature. Bobby Frisch, coming from the back, picked his way through the 28 car field and into second by the halfway mark. Frisch spent six laps slowly closing the gap before catching up to Swanson with four circuits to go.
Frisch stayed on Swanson's bumper while the two drivers worked their way through lapped traffic, finally seizing his opportunity when a hole opened with two laps remaining. Frisch grabbed the top spot coming to the white flag and held on for the win.
Swanson, Ricky Nielson, Larry Dickinson II and Richard Nielson all garnered top-fives.
In the crowd favorite Kar Korner World Famous Trailer Race of Destruction, David Prince outlasted 20 other drivers to bring home the victory. Prince raced his utility van around the quarter-mile for 15 minutes before taking the win over Andrew Lyons in a fan vote.
The NASCAR Whelen All-American Series is back in action next Saturday on Parent Petroleum Kid's Night at the Rockford Speedway. The Stanley Steemer NASCAR Late Models, Budweiser American Short Trackers, Mtn Dew RoadRunners and Brown's Chicken Super Cups all take on the fast-paced quarter mile along with the Sam's Drive-In RoadRunner Challenge featuring the Double Spin to Win Race. A special appearance will be made by Spider-Man and there will be a free 4-H Ice Cream Social and Cow Kissing Booth, plus Kid's Stock Car Rides. All kids ages 11 and under receive free admission when the spectator gates open at 5pm, with qualifying slated for 5:45pm and racing action getting underway at 7:07pm.

LONDON (Reuters) - Two-goal Romelu Lukaku fired Belgium's golden generation into next year's World Cup finals with Germany and Switzerland also sealing their tickets to the Brazil extravaganza on Friday.
Belgium, boasting one of the most talented squads in Europe, will return to the global showpiece for the first time since 2002 after a 2-1 win in Croatia guaranteed top spot in Group A.
Perennial finalists Germany's 3-0 home win over Ireland, with goals from Sami Khedira, Andre Schuerrle and Mesut Ozil, put them through from Group C while the Swiss won 2-1 in Albania to wrap up Group E.
Netherlands, with Robin van Persie hitting a hat-trick in an 8-1 demolition of Hungary to surpass Patrick Kluivert as record Dutch scorer with 41 goals, and Italy had sealed their passage to the finals before Friday's penultimate round of qualifiers.
Holders Spain moved to the brink of qualification from Group I after captain Xavi and substitute Alvaro Negredo struck in a laboured 2-1 win at home to Belarus.
Group F leaders Russia, with a 4-0 victory in Luxembourg, and England, who beat Montenegro 4-1 at Wembley with Wayne Rooney among the scorers, remain in pole position in Group H ahead of Tuesday's final round of matches.
Victory on a wet night in Zagreb prompted joyous celebrations from the Belgian players in front of a sizeable and vociferous contingent of travelling fans.
"I'm super happy for the team. We always believed we could qualify and now it's here," said Lukaku, looking ahead to a party atmosphere in Brussels for their final game against Wales.
The pacey Lukaku broke the deadlock from Steven Defour's defence-splitting pass and doubled the lead seven minutes before the break, racing away from halfway before lifting the ball over prone keeper Stipe Pletikosa and walking the ball into the net.
Injury-hit Germany, boosted by the return of midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger after a six-month break to earn his 99th cap, still swept aside Ireland.
"I think overall we played a very good qualification. We won eight of nine so we can be satisfied. Something still needs to happen though. The defence needs to become more stable," said coach Joachim Loew.
Sweden captain Zlatan Ibrahimovic struck a late winner to earn a 2-1 victory over Austria that secured second place behind the Germans and one of the playoff spots.
The eight best group runners-up advance to a two-legged playoff in November to fill the last four European places.
Goals from Xherdan Shaqiri and Michael Lang clinched Switzerland's passage with their successful campaign built around a rock-solid defence that has conceded just six goals.
Iceland or Slovenia will finish second in the group.
Iceland, 2-0 winners over Cyprus on Friday, will secure that spot if they can win in Norway on Tuesday while Slovenia, who face the Swiss in Berne, stayed in contention thanks to Milivoje Novakovic's hat-trick in a 3-0 drubbing of the Norwegians.
Spain's victory in Palma de Mallorca put them three points clear of France with one match to play and a point against lowly Georgia in Albacete on Tuesday will secure the world and European champions a berth in Brazil.
Russia need a point from their final game away at Azerbaijan to qualify after brushing aside Luxembourg to move three points ahead of Portugal.
A late blunder from goalkeeper Rui Patricio gifted Israel a 1-1 draw in Lisbon to leave Portugal, who led through a first half goal from center back Ricardo Costa, staring at the playoffs.
England will win their section with victory at home to Poland. Roy Hodgson's side had to remain patient to overcome stubborn Montenegro who had not lost to the 1966 World Cup winners in three previous meetings.
Rooney, who missed the last two qualifiers through injury, eased England's nerves when he struck soon after the restart and a Branko Boskovic own goal, a stunning third on his debut by Andros Townsend, and an injury-time penalty from Daniel Sturridge secured victory.
Ukraine remain one point behind and must hope England slip up against the Poles. Andriy Yarmolenko scored the only goal as the Ukrainians edged Poland 1-0 in Kharkiv which all but ended the Euro 2012 co-hosts' hopes of progressing.
Bosnia, seeking to reach their first major tournament as an independent nation, and Greece remain neck-and-neck on 22 points at the top of Group G after home wins on Friday.
Bosnia, with Edin Dzeko scoring twice, thumped Liechtenstein 4-1 while a Martin Skrtel own goal handed Greece a 1-0 success at home to Slovakia.
Nicklas Bendtner made a sensational return from a six-month ban by netting both goals in Denmark's 2-2 draw at home to Italy in Group B.
The striker was suspended by the Danish FA after being arrested for drink-driving but his international return was spoiled by Alberto Aquilani's stoppage-time equaliser.
The Danes remain third, level on 13 points with Bulgaria who had two players sent off in a 2-1 defeat in Armenia.
