Can't agree more with the general view. I hope I haven't seen her best program yet, and hope she comes up with something that can top it for her final season.

I just replaced a basic Kenmore range hood that was 14 years old with this new hood and wow what a difference. This range hood not only looks beautiful but it has great power. I love the bright lights and the 3 different light and fan speed levels. It is a bit noisy on high but it does a great job. It was also easy to install with help. I think you'll love it.

Excellent draft
I purchased the range hood March 5, 2009, on October 31, 2012 it stop functioning. the service person stated the product has a mother board and heat stops it from functioning--how crazy is that. I reported this to Sears, they would only refund 30% . I will not recommend this product.

Good looking stainless steel range hood with easy to use touch switches for the 3-speed fan and 3-brightness level lights. The 2nd and 3rd fan speeds are a little on the noisy side. Like many folks, when everything is off, I experienced a humming noise caused by the small transformer that was irritating. I placed an additional screw in the middle of the hood that stopped the upper surface from vibrating. Since this is a recurring problem, it should be part of the installation instructions. One should not have to go on-line to find a solution.

Installed in on a non-ducted configuration. Fairly simple to install and looks great. Purchased the charcoal filters and halogen bulbs at the **********. Broan Charcoal Replacement Filter for Non-Vented 30 in. Allure Range Hoods Model # BPSF30 fit perfectly and have the same clean sense technology.

We recently purchased a new Kenmore Elite Range, and purchased the Kenmore Elite Hood to complement it. The installation was easy, but I found that (2) people made the installation even easier. The wiring and mounting holes matched up with the previous hood, so it was a matter of removing the old hood and installing the new hood. Much improved over the old hood! (in terms of looks, filters, lighting, fan).

It has all the right fan speeds and nice looking , did not come with bulbs though that is why i gave it 4 stars

Okay ... I used to have a microwave over my stove, but I don't like microwaves and don't use them ... so it was unplugged and used as a cabinet for my teas. Being unplugged, I then did not have the use of the light or the fan that was a built in part of the microwave ... NOW I have a hood with great lighting (3 different levels) and a fan (keeping my smoke alarm from going off). The fan is a bit louder then I had anticipated on both the middle and high setting ... but then it is something that I have not been used to. Love the Lighting!!! and the way the hood looks overall.

Same hood as Broan but with Kenmore Elite logo on it. You do always need to have fan on when cooking or condensation does form underneath even with small pot on. Did not have that with old cheap style, but then when cooking exhaust fan should be on. Super quite do not know it is on when on low. Lighting is great, low is like a night light and high is supper bright, normally only use medium setting. Have had for over a year and works great.

As virtualization technologies become more mainstream, many IT organizations using Microsoft System Center are looking for efficient ways to monitor both VMware vSphere and physical infrastructures. In many cases, customers who use System Cen¬ter still work on their VMware environment as a separate project, unable to do it all from one console. This leads to delayed service levels and inefficiencies as separate teams manually compare performance data using different monitoring tools. Many IT teams are hampered by this separate IT management process. Without an integrated monitoring solution, VMware perfor¬mance remains a "blind spot" for many operations teams. Veeam leverages System Center investments to manage VMware – enabling IT managers to achieve deep infrastructure moni¬toring from physical to virtual and to applications.Veeam Management Pack (MP) v6.5 provides enhanced fault tolerance and app-to-metal management to mitigate the risk of outages, and new reporting correlates alerts with vSphere configuration changes. In addition to deep VMware vSphere management, Veeam MP now includes monitoring, reporting and capacity planning for Veeam Backup & Replication. Veeam Management Pack v 6.5 offers new features and enhancements including: • Enhanced fault tolerance, eliminating single points of failure by automatically reconfiguring to collect data directly from vSphere hosts in the event of a vCenter failure• Configuration tracking and alert correlation reporting to track changes for all vSphere objects • Monitoring and reporting for Veeam Backup & Replication*, including proxy servers, repository servers, backup servers and WAN accelerators• Support for new platforms including VMware vSphere 5.5, Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 and Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 *Requires Veeam Backup & Replication

130 high clearance

130 high clearance
I just looked at a 130 high clearance that also is a factory widened front and rear with a distillate engine. SN puts it a 1957 . It would need engine work, straight tin, alot of restoration ,and has no implements . Price seems high at $2800 . Does the engine and wide axles make it that much more valuable? I am new to Farmall letter and number series . Thanks in advance
Re: 130 high clearance
A quick look says only 570 130-HC made in less than two years production, of which only 120 were distillate.
The engine would make it more valuable, if it still has all the distillate parts (extra starting tank, shutters, good manifold w/ heat shield and associated controls).
I'm not sure what you mean by "factory widened front and rear". I don't believe I've ever seen one like that.
I have a 100-HC, for which IH made around 1057 in two years production and I wouldn't sell it for $2800, but it's in good shape with front cultivators and a two point fast hitch.
Re: 130 high clearance
Thanks Raymond , This tractor has IH cast extensions that are about 9 inches long on both sides of the rearend and a solid tube on the front end that looks to be 2.5 to 3 inches in diameter also stamped IH. The seller had a book by Ray Guy, I believe, that showed a rearend shot of this style of tractor. It is really wide with no adjustment. I dont know how much of the distillate engine is left. I believe the book was called The Letter Series .
Re: 130 high clearance
From the sound of things, to me I think it's a steal. The distillate parts, if missing, are not impossible to find (I have a small gasoline starting tank that would work for it, in fact) The factory "wide" parts do make it sound interesting!

Re: 130 high clearance
Like Al, I am intrigued! How about a few pics? All the parts that may be missing could probably be replaced without too much trouble, but like anything, it'll cost. It all depends on how much you are looking to invest.
Welcome to the Forum by the way!
Re: 130 high clearance
From the sound of things, the extra wide finals and front axle trump the distillate parts. Agree, would love to see pics!

Re: 130 high clearance
You are right here on top of me. Let me know if I can help. Sounds interesting, for me, a decent running 130 with no implements would likely bring that price. Take away running, add missing parts, throw in distillate version, with high wide clearance, and you end up ?????? Maybe back at $2800 if you are interested in the novelty of it. If you were looking for a tractor to got to work with next week, keep looking.

Re: 130 high clearance
Thanks Raymond, Thats 65 plus inches inside the rear tires.
Re: 130 high clearance
Appears that the manifold, heat shield and starting tank are there. Tires appear to be in good shape, look at least like they are holding air! Control rod for shutters are there as well. Are the shutters still installed behind the grille?
Seat is missing, as is at least one brake actuating rod. Hood, grille and surround could be in better shape, and the missing emblems don't help. But all that is minor and can be fixed or replaced.
Does it run? Does the SN tag reflect it being a High Crop?
If you have the money and the time for a project, I'd say you'll have something relatively unique!
Re: 130 high clearance
Seller states that the tractor runs but smokes badly . The SN tag reads 2745 HC .
Re: 130 high clearance
I'd definitely have to hear it running and moving on its own power before money was exchanged.

Romo Freeman = worst nightmare!
If the bucs could somehow obtain Romo, that would be so awesome!!!! For sure the Bucs would make the playoffs in 2013 with Romo at QB. Trade Freeman for a 5th round pick.
When Freeman was drafted, my brother said to me "that just set the Bucs back 7 years". I guess Freeman gets one more season of sucking then it takes 2 years after that to develop another QB. So maybe my brother was right.Keeping Freeman is not the answer. Bringing in Romo at least gets the Bucs to the playoffs again.
I would take him on for free. Like if he got released. I wouldn't give anything away for him. Jerry would probably want Freeman in return.If they wanted to trade him, they should of a few years ago. Dude is 33 IIRC.
What is your point? I was wrong? Ok. You win. I was wrong.
I could live with getting Romo and Demarcus Ware for Freeman...
Quote from: NotDeadYet on January 10, 2013, 12:21:43 PM I could live with getting Romo and Demarcus Ware for Freeman... Romo and Demarcus Ware for Freeman, Clayborn and McCoy

…in the crockpot!
what's in it?
2 cups of fresh cranberries
1 cup of dried cranberries
1 large honeycrisp apple, diced [around 2.5 cups - skin optional]
1 medium orange [enough for 1/2 tsp of zest + 1/4 cup of juice]
3 TBSP honey [plus a smidge more, to taste]
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
a teeny pinch of salt
yields two heaping cups of deliciousness
helloooooo crockpot!
no crockpot? no problem!
Clear some space and whip this up on the stove top! Add the ingredients from above to a small-medium saucepan and cook on medium heat, covered. Stir often to prevent sticking and use a fork or wooden spoon to help smoosh the berries as they start to heat up! You can even crank up the temperature a teeny bit more to help the sauce along, just babysit it if you do, stirring at frequent intervals. Super simple! =)
Though if you're like me, you need to make a second batch of crockpot cran sauce so you have enough. Ok a third. I heart it so.
Spill it!

Put it this way: He was popular enough and good enough that someone should honor him. Someone like the Bucs.
Well they did make the playoffs 3 out of his 4 years. Before him the Bucs were the worst team the NFL has ever seen snd after him they were the laughingstock of the league for 15 years.

The sky awoke from its dark slumber as scarlet hues broke on the western horizon. I recalled the old mariner's saying: Red sky at night, sailor's delight; red sky at morning, sailor take warning. Sure enough, the afternoon would be filled with 6- to 9-foot waves to turn our sailfish outing into a wild ride. The spectacular action that would precede the rough seas would prove well worth it, however.
I was aboard Old Reliable, a custom-built 30-footer owned by Nick Smith. Also along: Capt. Angelo Durante. It's a 40-minute, no-wake chug on the Intracoastal Waterway from Smith's home in North Palm Beach, Florida, to Sailfish Marina, where we would rendezvous with a bait boat for a $120 delivery of three-dozen live goggle-eyes. The plan was to hunt for sails in Sailfish Alley, a broad area that stretches offshore from Sebastian Inlet to the north and south off Palm Beach - an 80-mile expanse that has consistently produced great catches of sails during the fall for 30 years or more.
Fishing with Smith and Durante off southeast Florida is like playing golf with Tiger Woods and Greg Norman at the Masters - you won't find a better duo. Smith has won countless sailfish tournaments and frequently places first in the sailfish category of the Metropolitan South Florida Fishing Tournament with 100 or more releases during the six-month event. Durante was bitten with the sailfish bug as a youngster, and the disease is still with him - a lifelong passion that's enabled him to perfect his sailfishing techniques. I was eager to learn how they and others have scored so many spindlebeak releases over the years in Sailfish Alley.
Beat the Benchmark
Durante and Smith networked on the radio with charter captains to catch up on who was catching what, where. As we approached the marina, Smith slowed the boat so he and Durante could count the red sailfish release flags flapping from the outriggers of the charter fleet. These "red badges of courage" are the local form of bragging along Sailfish Alley, and everyone takes notice.
Durante pointed to a string of 13 flags whipping from a Merritt boat. "He'd only caught seven when we turned to go north yesterday," he says. Those 13 flags became our benchmark goal for the day. Could we do better?
Sunny skies gave way to gray before noon, and 30-knot winds turned the seas into a turmoil. We maintained a north heading in search of sailfish concentrations, but we soon gave up slow-trolling in favor of sight-casting live baits, which was anything but simple. We discovered several fast-moving pods of super-charged sailfish, but they appeared in seconds and then quickly dissolved into the blue of the Gulf Stream. Smith and Durante were up to the task, however, and at one point they saw the same pod of fish and simultaneously made lightning casts. Both hooked up, but - as rarely happens with these pros - both lost their fish.
Smith soon scored on a high-flying sail that led him on a slip-sliding chase around the cockpit. As the boat came off a huge wave, he sprawled and nearly bounced off the bow. Moments later Durante was also locked in combat. Eyes tearing from the cold, I felt grateful that I had the wheel to hold onto.
While most others would have headed back to the dock - and no one would have blamed them - we fished relentlessly on. I'll always remember Durante removing nine red flags from a drawer and stringing them on the outrigger as we finally passed the dock at Sailfish Marina at around 9 p.m. We didn't beat 13 releases, but no one hung his head in shame.
Alley in the Stream
The dominant current off southeast Florida is the Gulf Stream, which flows north at a rate of 1 to 5 knots. Off the Palm Beaches, deep blue tropical waters sweep along the 120-foot-depth contour that roughly follows the edge of the continental shelf. The stream continues northward beyond Jupiter, arching 5 to 7 miles from the St. Lucie Inlet off Stuart and 8 to 10 miles off Fort Pierce.
This 120-foot edge along Sailfish Alley that parallels Palm Beach to Sebastian Inlet has dramatic bottom structures easily discerned with depth sounders. Logically, Durante concludes 120 feet is a good place to begin the search for sails in Sailfish Alley. Sonic tagging experiments have shown that depending on the conditions, sailfish concentrate on either side of the confluence where clear, warm, deep-blue waters of the Gulf Stream meet turbid, green coastal waters. While this confluence or "edge" can happen over a broad expanse, statistics indicate sails are most likely to be located along the 120-foot edge.
Like many game fish, sails are structure-oriented because of the presence of baitfish. Rather than the steep drop-offs found elsewhere, structure in the alley is scattered in depths from 60 to 400 feet, including reefs and rock patches where baitfish congregate. All these sailfish-attracting features explain why 80-mile-long Sailfish Alley is so productive. The width of Sailfish Alley narrows as you go north, starting from about 3 miles off Palm Beach to 8 miles off Stuart, 15 off Fort Pierce and about 19 off Sebastian Inlet.

The staff was always friendly and helpful and didn't mind engaging in conversation with the clients. The policies were straight forward and explained in detail when I leased the storage space. The free usage of the moving truck helped me out considerably and allowed me to save money on that expense. Thank you for being there for this transition period. I will highly recommend this company and this facility in particular to family and friends in the area.Tiffany from Round Rock, TX

I was so nervous to store my extra things anywhere, having never had to store anything before. But Uncle Bob's self storage has put my mind at ease! The staff is always friendly and helpful.

I'd like to compliment the manager on site, Mr. Michael for the excellent service he has provided me. He has helped me from completing thorough paper work, show me the facility and how to use the key pad to enter and exit the building (Step by step procedure).

Giles suffered a mild concussion after colliding with Mark Prior on Thursday afternoon and will likely be held out of Sunday's lineup by his manager Bobby Cox. The 25-year-old Braves second baseman is thinking that if he misses the next two games that he shouldn't play in the All-Star Game.
"I just want to play [Sunday]," Giles said. "I've got a priority to play in the regular season. I think that's more important than playing in an All-Star Game."
Giles planned on making some phone calls to family and friends seeking advice on how to handle this situation. But his Braves teammates and coaches don't understand why there is even any question whether he should play.
When told Giles was contemplating missing the All-Star Game, Braves manager Bobby Cox said, "He better [play]."
"I don't agree with his thinking at all," Mark DeRosa said. "He shouldn't be embarrassed at all. He deserves to play and he deserves to start. It was a freak accident. There's no reason he should feel bad about it."
Obviously Giles needs to get the final medical clearance that he is expected to receive. He was released from Illinois Masonic Hospital around 6:30 p.m. CT on Thursday night and was eating a steak at a downtown Chicago restaurant just a few hours later.
Giles has seen the replay of the violent collision twice and knows that he is very lucky to have escaped with the injuries that he did. He had a stiff back and shoulder on Saturday, but still was displaying some of his usual jovial ways as he walked around the clubhouse.
"I'm very lucky from what the doctors and trainers have told me," Giles said.
During the second-inning collision, Prior's left knee struck the left side of Giles face and sent both NL All-Stars to the ground. The Cubs' 6-foot-5 hurler, who was running to second with two outs on a Mark Grudzielanek grounder, looked like he was attempting to leap over the Braves' 5-foot-8 second baseman.
"I'm sure he didn't mean to run into me," Giles said. "It was an accident. He was trying to make a play and I was trying to make a play."
Giles remained motionless on the field for approximately five minutes before being taken into the Braves clubhouse. He remembers Prior reaching first base via a walk and then vaguely remembers hearing the ambulance siren and seeing his wife as they rode to the hospital.
Once Giles arrived at the hospital, a nurse asked him what day it was. He responded, "May 29."
While Giles is hoping to be in Sunday's lineup, Cox will likely use caution and rest him another day.
"We'll just have to see what the doctor says," Cox said.

About Naturepedic

I only use this product in the a.m. on a cleansed face. Next I use a toner (personally I'm in love w/ the Pore Minimizer) & then appply a thin layer of Cold Plasma. Next I apply a thin layer of Formula 15. I make sure to apply it up to my hair line and also all the way down to my jawline. Be sure to avoid the eye area. I love how it soaks right into my skin and seriously w/in a matter of a few weeks my skin looked so much smoother! It has even addressed the fine lines around my lips! I haven't needed an additional moisturizer. I just apply my No Foundation Foundation and I'm set for the day. This is a definite "MUST HAVE" for me! I have no reservation recommending it because it works!! I tested this product for Dr. Perricone so I have been using it for the past 3 mos. I am 56 yrs old with normal skin. Totally in LOVE with this fabulous new addition to Dr. Perricone's Line ♥

After seeing the amazing results my mom had with Sub-D I decided to give Formula 15 a try.The smell is not bad at all; what is bad is the number of hard, sore bumps/pimples I have had since using the product. I use it sparingly (not under my eyes) but still look like i have a rash and/or black eyes! And then there are pimples on other areas of my face.I would only get a random pimple every so often.... this is just ridiculous and depressing!BTW I don't have sensitive skin.

Bad reaction
By Marilyn
from Washington
Comments about Perricone MD Formula 15:
I also had an extreme skin reaction to this product. Have used many different perricone products for many years without skin reactions. Happily use a number of his products daily. Tried this one twice and both times my forehead, side of face and neck developed red, dry, rashy patches that both hurt and itched for days. Perhaps the test patch on the neck would be a good idea.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Couldn't Stand the Smell
By Erin
from Larchmont, NY
I really love Dr. Perricone, his philosophy and Cold Plasma. I received Formula 15 as a free sample, and was excited to use it. I put it on my face, and it smelled so bad to me that I had to wash it off. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to sleep with it on.

I have just started using this product and so far so good. I have no problems with the smell of the product which some reviewers have found. I find the odor to be minimal and almost non-existent. I am only giving it four stars because I have just started to use the product but I am liking this product:)
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Rated 5 out of 5 by Conan1510 Light, subtle, and tasty Like it's supposed to be, this white tea is just tasty (also very fragrant)! I never thought I would say this (I'm a caffeine addict), but this tea was very very subtle therefore you don't get the grassy aftertaste you get with black/green tea. I highly recommend it!

trouble with new clutch
Hello all. I have a 1974 cub lo boy that I've owned since around 1990, great tractor. Any way while I was getting it ready for winter and greasing the throw out bearing I noticed a rather large gap between the clutch disc and the pressure plate. Adjusted as per the manual and found that the pressure plate that bolts on to the transmission was cracked. So being a little anal I bought an entire clutch rebuild kit, (hamilton bobs cub). Pull the old unit as per my shop manual and with some great advise that I read on this forum, and all went well. Installed the new unit but it seems that I cannot get this new clutch assembly to release cleanly. I have set the gap between the throw out bearing and the release fingers to .090 gap and the transmission brake pucks to .010. when I push in the clutch pedal and try to start the tractor the transmission brake are engaged and the clutch is not released, so it loads the engine starter down.I have moved the throw out bearing in closer to the release fingers and taken out the transmission brake and it starts OK but it seems that there is not enough movement in the throw out bearing to let the clutch disc spin freely. I really hate to get to long winded if you need more info or a pic I can do that also. Thanks bob
Re: trouble with new clutch
Welcome to the Forum!!
If you completely removed the brake pucks, you'll need to reinstall them. Without them there is just enough drag on the disc that it'll spin the plate, and along with it the top shaft of the transmission. This will cause the gears to grind.

Re: trouble with new clutch
Thinking the problem may be in the pressure plate finger height and then readjusting the clutch pedal free play/clutch adjusting rod.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: trouble with new clutch
Thanks for the replies. I have checked the finger height on the old clutch and the new clutch, the new one seems a very close when I measured. I have the shop manual which said it should be 1.210 " on the height. The new clutch and the old clutch do not seem to have any means of adjustment. the release finger just bolt to the pressure plate on the transmission. I was reading the owners manual and they were stating the distance between the throw out bearing and the release fingers is set to 3/32" and 1/4" wear in. I was setting it to .090" as per the shop manual. for the life of me when I watch the clutch work (stroke the clutch pedal by hand) I don't see how it releases the engine from the transmission. any way I was going to try and set the clearance to 3/32" and see if that works any better. Then if that goes south I may use the new pressure plate with the old disc and release fingers, they did not look worn very bad at all. Thanks again for the responces, and any ideas are greatly appreciated. Bob
Re: trouble with new clutch
.090 and 3/32 are practically the same measurement.
The Operator's Manual has one additional measurement, 1/4" release. Check to see if the pressure plate fingers move inward 1/4" when the clutch pedal is depressed.
New clutch brake plugs?
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: trouble with new clutch
If the clutch is working correctly with the clutch brake removed, try reinstalling the clutch brake and adjusting it out until it does not press against the pressure plate. Then you can gradually adjust the brake back in until it stops the pressure plate from turning when the clutch is engaged.
If you have installed new brake pucks, the clutch brake setting needs to be adjusted quite a bit or it will be pressing against the pressure plate before the throw out bearing presses the fingers in far enough to make the clutch release. This is the way I always make the clutch brake adjustment after installing new brake pucks.
Re: trouble with new clutch
When I replaced the pressure plate on my 184 (different design but same pressure plate) it took some use and re-adjusting before I got it to work properly. When newly installed, I couldn't get the clutch to release cleanly and still get the clearances to work out. I had to start the tractor (in gear) and work the clutch on a hill a bit. It took about 10 minutes of work to get it to release completely. (kept wanting to creep up the hill with clutch in).
It limbered up, but still didn't work well so I took it back to the shop and adjusted it again. This time all the clearances worked out.
Now it works perfectly.

Re: trouble with new clutch
sorry it took a bit of time to get back but any way I've taken out and reinstalled the clutch 4 times now thinking I was doing something wrong. any way the last time I put the old pressure plate and friction disc back in (they were not in bad shape at all) and set the clearences and it worked perfectly. I have no explanation what is up with the new pressure plate. So until spring its going to be just fine, I was going to contact Hamilton Bob's Cub and see if he has any ideas about this. I can't thank you guys enough for your help and support. I know I have a few more projects coming up so I know I'll be intouch. thanks again Bob

Days Gone By!
I was going through some old photo albums and found a few I forgot I had. Besides the 240 acres of farm land my grandparents owned, Dad also helped farm several thousand acres of land spread out across southwest Ohio and into southeast Indiana.
These are all shots of Dads hired help working on the Lawrence Lake farm in 1949.
Here is one of Dad's hired hands on one of Dad's Farmalls
Same guy, same tractor, actually the same picture, but showing the wagon he was pulling to load corn.
Another one of Da'd's wagons being unloaded.
Here are the guys who made up Dad's regular crew.
I probably will always remember Rueben (second from left). He worked for Dad for many years and always kept an eye on me when I was allowed to tag along to the fields, which was almost always. Mom always said he was one of the nicest guys she ever met and was one of the best workers Dad had. The guy second from the end is Mom's youngest brother who I was named after. He was everybody's favorite uncle. He helped Dad now and then while working Mom's family farm also. He finally bought that farm and spent full time working it. Dad would always go to the high school and hire some of the guys to help out. Probably the best known of the high school guys was Russ Nixon who was a catcher for the Cleveland Indians, Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins in the 50's and 60's.
Dad, on the left, and Mr. Lake.
You can see I get my great smile from Dad. Mr. Lake had a huge farm several miles from us and Dad was the only one he would let work it. Mom said he tried to get Dad to move us off the family farm into one of his houses and work full time for him. Dad never would want to let his family down and had to politely refuse the offer. Most of that big old farm is county park land now and will probably never see crops again. The remainder will probably be a subdivision if the older family members ever sell it.
Here is one of Dad's truck getting a load of lime in 1940. He was just about the only one around who spread lime for the other farmers.
A closer shot of his truck
He had a couple of these as well as some smaller grain trucks, his pick up, and the big ol' '51(?) Buick. I remember seeing a photo of one of the bigger trucks with a couple tractors on it getting ready to head home from a job. That photo as well as many others have been lost and no family members seem to know where they went.

Thanks for the comments fellas. I always like looking at old pictures when someone psot them so I figured somebody might like these.
Denny, yes it was Piqua. I don't know why some of the edges didn't scan. That photo is from 1940, but I probably road there with him in the 50's.
As for Mom's brother, we all called him Uncle Barnyard...Okay, just kidding there.

Giambi, who won last year's Home Run Derby in Milwaukee, will participate in this year's event as he tries to defend his title.
"It's a lot of fun," Giambi said. "It's great to participate in it. I enjoy doing it."
Last year, Giambi hit 11 long balls in the first round and six in the second, plus a sudden-death home run to advance to the finals. Giambi outlasted Paul Konerko in a sudden-death round to advance to the finals, where he found Sammy Sosa, the defending champion. Giambi crushed Sosa, 7-1, to win his first Home Run Derby title.
Will his status as defending champion put any more pressure on Giambi?
"No, I'll just have fun with it," he said. "I have a good time and go up there, swinging from my shoe tops. I just let it fly."
Giambi had an impressive showing in Seattle in 2001, bashing 14 homers in the first round before running out of steam in the second. Giambi's performance in 2001 set a new first-round record, edging Mark McGwire's 13 from 1999.
"The fans enjoy seeing how far the guys can hit them," Giambi said. "So do we."
Giambi will be without Willie Randolph, his pitcher from last season. Randolph, the Yankees' third-base coach, will not be in Chicago for the All-Star Game.
"I'm going to have to find someone to throw to me who can throw strikes and keep pumping them in there," Giambi said. "That makes all the difference in the world."
The Home Run Derby has become one of the most popular events during All-Star week, as baseball's version of the NBA's slam dunk contest has wowed fans for the past few years with tape-measure shots by the sport's biggest sluggers.
"The thing about slam dunk contests now is that everything has been done before," Giambi said. "There's always new stadiums, places that guys have never hit them before. The stadiums make it different every year and keeps it fresh."
How has Giambi fared at U.S. Cellular Field, formerly known as Comiskey Park? In 143 at-bats, Giambi has homered seven times.
"I've done pretty well there," Giambi said. "It's a nice park. When it's hot, it's a good place to hit."

Will a high-capacity magazine and assault weapons ban make us safer? Are gun owners more or less likely to become the victim of a crime? How can we best protect our schools and homes? What's the easiest way to control guns without trampling the Second Amendment and the rights of law-abiding, gun-owning citizens?
Last week's Patch Back readers had plenty to share (thanks, readers!).
The conversations made two things abundantly clear. The first is gun owners really needn't fear the government confiscating their weapons, as that isn't on anyone's agenda. The second is gun control supporters have ample reason to hope that a high capacity magazine ban will become reality in Connecticut, if not the entire U.S.
Yet as I monitored the conversations, I began thinking about varying types of gun violence and how advocates on both sides often twist statistics to support their own views. It also occurred to me that although mass shootings garner the lion's share of media attention, the reality of gun violence that occurs in Chicago, Washington, New Haven, New York, Los Angeles and beyond claims many more lives still.
This type of violence occurs mostly from handguns, not assault rifles. Two contradictory points here are also abundantly clear: although those who own guns are more likely to be the victim of gun violence it is also true that those who carry guns are less likely to become the victim of someone with criminal intent.
Makes no sense, right?
Yet according to JustFacts.com, a nonpartisan independent research organization, it's true. For example, JustFacts found that the much-quoted statistic about those who own guns being three times more likely to become a homicide victim is not credible. Yet many pro-gun advocates who claim that existing controls are already strict enough fail to mention the ease with which someone with a fake ID can secure a gun.
In fact, the Government Accountability Office had a 100 percent success rate buying firearms in five states using false identification that also met the minimum requirements of the federal background check system, according to JustFacts.
Clearly, change is in order.
So where does this leave us? First, one can certainly make an argument that the motivations behind a mass shooter and a common street thug are vastly different; one is likely mentally ill while the other is likely committing a crime for socioeconomic reasons.
Limiting magazine capacity and banning assault rifles at the state level may make it more difficult to commit a mass shooting, but it isn't foolproof and it won't help with the everyday problem of handgun violence. A shooter using a handgun or two and holding extra ammunition can inflict just as much damage as one with an assault rifle, unfortunately. Isn't there a way to prevent mass shootings while also stemming the tide of handgun violence, which is, overall, a much greater threat to the safety of society?
Plus, although it pains this writer to think about asking Congress to take on anything of this magnitude, shouldn't any change in our gun laws hold true for all of our citizens? After all, the Second Amendment is a federally guaranteed right. Isn't buying a weapon at a gun show in a gun-friendly state and then hopping on the interstate pretty easy for a would-be criminal?
Local handgun bans, assault weapons bans and other technology-focused legislation seems to produce one step forward, two steps back results. Some sensible suggestions, many of which were provided by readers, include:
- On the federal level, requiring universal background checks, closing the gun show loophole and monitoring sales of weapons and ammunition, even when sold privately.
- Incorporating mental health screening as part of the background check and requiring repeated applications, as we do for driver licenses ("You could write a whole new column about driving requirements," my husband grumbled after one long commute home). This should include those living in the home with the weapon in question.
- Developing safe storage laws and enforcing penalties for those who do not follow them, especially if the un-stored gun is stolen and used in a crime.
- Making standard trigger mechanisms that unlock via fingerprint.
- Training teachers and administrators in self-defense. One reader suggested tasers or tear gas.
- Requiring gun owners to train family members in the appropriate use and safe storage of weaponry.
- Offering a federal gun amnesty program to get as many guns off the streets as possible.
Adding armed guards to schools, as the NRA suggested, may make sense for President Obama's children, but the idealist inside me is saddened that our kids may have to learn under armed protection. Can we not limit access to weaponry without infringing upon the rights of those who own guns safely and responsibly?
People who purchase guns want them for protection, hobby or sport. Those who don't want guns will probably never understand the motivations of those that do. But reaching a compromise will require each side to cross the impasse of their own making.

— If you want to mark yourself as a graying old-timer, bring up the American Basketball Association – the professional league that featured large Afros, slam dunk contests, three-point baskets and a red, white and blue basketball.
Oh, yes, it also had a great collection of players - perhaps the best on the globe - who brought athleticism, skill and excitement to a game that had become somewhat stodgy in the more established National Basketball Association.
Oh, those ABA days. Who could forget the amazing plays by Julius Erving, Connie Hawkins and the "Ice Man," George Gervin? There was Rick Barry, Artis Gilmore and Dan Issel, plus the high-flying David Thompson and so many, many others.
And, of course, there was the unforgettable Marvin "Bad News" Barnes who played for the Spirits of St. Louis. He once refused to board an 8 p.m. flight out of Louisville that arrived in St. Louis at 7:56 p.m., claiming he wasn't "gettin' on no time machine." He didn't buy into an explanation about time zones, according to numerous media outlets. Nor did he get on the plane.
The ABA was a blend of hucksterism and great entertainment. It launched in 1967 and survived until 1976. This bold experiment ended when four ABA teams were absorbed into the NBA. Those left out of the mini-merger were relegated to scrapbook clippings and barroom debates. Despite the ABA's fate, its fans never lost their love for their teams.
That seemed to be the end of the league's colorful history until a quirky story made its way back into the press recently. Some 37 years ago, the owners of the Spirits of St. Louis engineered a deal for one-seventh of the television revenue awarded the four ABA teams that joined the NBA in exchange for agreeing to fold their franchise.
It wasn't expected to be a windfall because the NBA wasn't a big TV draw. In 1980-81, brothers Ozzie and Daniel Silna collected about $500,000, The New York Times reported.
There was another aspect of the deal, however, that was much sweeter. The Silnas were to receive a share of the annual TV revenue in perpetuity. As the NBA's TV rights began to grow, so did payouts to the Silnas. The brothers, who had bought into the ABA for $1 million, collected $19 million last year, ESPN reported, bringing their total haul to some $300 million.
The long-ago agreement has been called "the greatest sports business deal of all time."
The NBA is now a big, big business that attracts a worldwide audience. The popularity of the game - with superstars such as LeBron James and Kobe Bryant - coupled with technology that beams games into any hamlet on the globe leaves open the possibility of untold wealth. In 2012, the NBA signed a TV deal with ESPN and TNT worth $7.4 billion over eight years.
Realizing the error of its ways, the NBA now would like to end the lucrative arrangement with the Silnas. The brothers have other feelings. The Silnas think they are also entitled to Internet, cable and international TV rights, plus whatever else falls under the large media umbrella. Armed with lawyers, they went to federal court in New York last year to plead their case.
What once was a nuisance, and then an embarrassment to the NBA, has turned into a fight over a king's ransom. All the while, the Silnas cling to their signed agreement. The only questions that remain for them are, "How much and for how long?"
For guys who haven't had to deal with players with huge egos, fickle fans or renting a state-of-the-art arena, the Silnas have enjoyed a life in pro sports that few could imagine.
The ABA existed for less than 10 years. Yet, thanks to some smart lawyers, the Silnas stand to continue their winning streak for as long as they desire.

GOLDEN CITY, Mo. — Searchers trickled back into Golden City on horseback and in cars shortly after 2 p.m. Wednesday, their faces showing lost hope and a growing sense of grief.
A body had been found a mile northwest of this prairie town of about 760 residents. Police cautioned that a positive identification had yet to be made, but who else could it be but Adriaunna Horton, the 12-year-old with a winning smile, missing since 5 p.m. Monday?
She was last seen getting into a vehicle near the town's park, where she had been playing with other children.
"We still had hope," said Karla Abeyta, one of the searchers. "I was praying that she was going to be alive."
Abeyta, whose boyfriend's son is a friend of Adriaunna's father, James Horton, had driven over from Pittsburg, Kan., to help look for the girl. She was one of more than 100 volunteers - more than a dozen of them on horseback - to join the search on its third day.
Searchers had scoured scoured the town Tuesday - out to a perimeter of a mile or more - aided by two K-9 units, the Missouri Highway Patrol, the FBI, seven sheriff's departments, five police departments and the Tri-State Major Case Squad, a group of detectives from Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri.
On Wednesday, they shifted their attention to fields west of town, on each side of 100th Lane, which runs north to south. The body was discovered about 1:50 p.m., said state patrol Sgt. Mike Watson .
Abeyta said her search party had just crossed a fence line when word came over their handlers' radios and they were told to stop. It was a demoralizing moment up and down the line of searchers, she said.
A friend of the girl's family, who was on horseback, appeared to pass out with the news. Others rushed to his aid, Abeyta said.
