NHRA, producers of popular drag racing show announce agreement to produce media properties

NHRA and producers of the popular drag racing show Pinks, Stephen Pullin and Jack Schaeffer, have agreed to create, develop, and produce media properties, including new racing competitions, new events, and television programs. The first project, NHRA Unleashed, will celebrate pure American horsepower in an interactive festival environment.
Pullin and Schaeffer's Disrupt/ive Studios and NHRA will explore and develop innovative properties focused on wide-open, wheelstanding, heads-up competition embracing the car enthusiast, the roots of NHRA. NHRA Unleashed is the first of these properties to be staged in 2010, in Atlanta; Indianapolis; Hebron, Ohio; and Gainesville. A schedule of events is listed below. The plan is to expand NHRA Unleashed to other premier drag racing facilities in the United States in 2011.
"We have been working for several months with Stephen, Jack, and the team at Disrupt/ive Studios to create this unique relationship," said Tom Compton, NHRA president. "We are excited about creating new entertainment media properties and developing entertaining, interactive events aligned with television programming that highlight the foundation of NHRA, the grassroots racer and car enthusiast."
NHRA Unleashed will provide a fully interactive experience for spectators and participants, embracing a new breed of drag racing enthusiast looking for pure, doorslammer heads-up competition on the track, ranging from the 10.5 Outlaw to the 13-second weekend warrior, and a festival environment off the track. At an NHRA Unleashed event, everyone and everything is part of the show, which will feature heads-up, no-index racing on the track; interactive events, including Kart Track and Autocross activities; and the traditional car show, car/parts swap meet, and car corrals. The drag racing format on the track will have the sole purpose of highlighting competition for the pure heads-up grassroots competitors in the country, vying for the coveted Wally trophy. Each event will be as much a regional happening as it will be a drag racing event and will include exhibition runs by a variety of race vehicles.
"We want to develop events and broadcast programs that capture the sport, lifestyle, culture, and original brand of NHRA Drag Racing," Pullin said. "We believe the NHRA Unleashed event embodies everything we are looking to create jointly, a celebration of pure American horsepower."
Further details on NHRA Unleashed will be announced later in January. In addition, NHRA and Disrupt/ive Studios intend to make announcements in the coming months about additional creative ideas and proposals currently in the planning process.
2010 NHRA Unleashed schedule
June 11-13: Atlanta Dragway, Atlanta
Aug. 6-8: O'Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis, Indianapolis
Sept. 10-12: National Trail Raceway, Hebron, Ohio
Nov. 5-7: Gainesville Raceway, Gainesville
Prudhomme announces retirement from drag racing
January 7, 2010 by Benjamin Tuttle (Ticketing Manager)
Filed under Featured Articles, Latest News
Comments Off
Don "the Snake" Prudhomme, one of the most accomplished drivers and revered team owners in the history of motorsports, announced his retirement today, ending a career spanning five decades in drag racing.
Prudhomme's 47-year career featured him behind the wheel for 32 seasons before he retired from driving at the end of his 1994 Final Strike campaign. He then transitioned to the role of team owner. Overall, Prudhomme has an impressive combination of six NHRA world championships and 112 national event victories.
"I feel very fortunate to have been able to make a living in drag racing and to have enjoyed some success along the way," said Prudhomme. "I would like to thank all of the great sponsors we've worked with over the years, everyone at NHRA, the many track owners, operators, and promoters, our past employees and team members, and all of the drag racing fans that have supported Snake Racing."
About Don "the Snake" Prudhomme
Ask even the most casual of motorsports fans who the biggest name in drag racing is, and you are almost always sure to hear one name — Don "the Snake" Prudhomme. A true legend of the sport, Prudhomme, 68, concluded his 47th year in drag racing in 2009, his 15th season as an owner after logging 32 seasons behind the wheel as one of the sport's elite drivers.
"Snake's" remarkable driving career began in 1962 with his first Top Fuel victory at the Smokers March Meet in Bakersfield, Calif., and ended with 49 NHRA victories — the sixth-most in NHRA history — following his farewell Final Strike tour in 1994. Prudhomme reached the final 68 times, posting a remarkable 35 wins in 45 Funny Car finals (.777 win percentage) and 14 wins in 23 Top Fuel final rounds (.609 win percentage). Overall, he won 389 of 589 rounds of competition for a .660 win percentage.
Along the way, Prudhomme reached many important milestones and broke several barriers. He became the first driver to earn four consecutive NHRA world titles, won the prestigious U.S. Nationals seven times, was the first Funny Car driver to break the 250-mph mark (250.00 mph), was the first to post an elapsed time under 5.20 seconds (5.193), became the first to win seven of eight national events in one season (1976), was the first NHRA Winston world champion (1975), and was the first driver to win the U.S. Nationals and Winternationals in the same season (1965). At age 51, he became the third Top Fuel driver to pass the 300-mph mark (301.60), in 1993.
Off the track, Prudhomme gained notice in the early 1970s when Mattel released the "Mongoose" (Tom McEwen) and "Snake" Hot Wheels car sets, helping to introduce drag racing to a larger, more mainstream audience.
Prudhomme did not stop rewriting the NHRA record books despite leaving his role as a driver to become a multicar team owner. Wins by Larry Dixon (Top Fuel) and Ron Capps (Funny Car) at the 1998 Winternationals made "Snake" only the fifth owner in history to have cars in two categories earn titles at the season-opening event. Prudhomme's Dixon-Capps tandem repeated at the 2001 Brainerd race, then again in 2002 near Columbus, Ohio.
The 2000 season included many highlights for Prudhomme. Dixon and Capps finished in the top three in the season standings, and Prudhomme was honored for his accomplishments as a driver with his induction into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame in Talladega, Ala., with such other racing heroes as A.J. Foyt, Mario Andretti, and Aryton Senna. "Talladega really was a highlight for me, and I don't think it can get much better than that," said Prudhomme.
The 2001 season was one of the brightest for "the Snake" as an owner; Dixon finished just 95 points shy of giving Prudhomme his first championship as an owner. In the 2001 campaign, each of "Snake's" drivers posted wins — Dixon had six, Capps two, and Tommy Johnson Jr. one; wins by Johnson in Las Vegas, Dixon in Gainesville, and Capps in Bristol gave Prudhomme three consecutive winning weekends.
During the 2002 season, "the Snake" watched Dixon power his Miller Lite Top Fuel dragster to nine victories en route to his first NHRA Full Throttle Top Fuel world championship and the fifth of Prudhomme's career. In addition, Prudhomme was named the No. 3 driver in NHRA history by a panel of drag racing historians as NHRA celebrated its historic 50th anniversary season.
The 2003 NHRA season was another banner year for Snake Racing as Dixon drove his Dick LaHaie-tuned dragster to its second consecutive NHRA championship, winning eight races in 13 final-round appearances to earn the $400,000 championship bonus.
Prudhomme inched ever closer to his milestone 100th victory in 2004 as Dixon earned two victories, moving the legendary driver and owner to within two victories of the century mark. Dixon's 35th win in August equaled drag racing icon "Big Daddy" Don Garlits for third on the all-time Top Fuel win list. Johnson also posted career-best performance marks in his blue Skoal Racing Chevy flopper at the season finale in Pomona.
The 2005 season for "Snake" included Johnson breaking an 89-race winless streak when he dusted the field to score at the Winternationals at historic Auto Club Raceway at Pomona. Two months later, Prudhomme become just the third driver and owner in NHRA history to reach the 100-win plateau when Dixon triumphed at the spring Las Vegas event. Dixon added two more victories, including at the prestigious U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis, to give the "Snake" 102 Wally trophies. Dixon's third U.S. Nationals victory was Indy win No. 10 for Prudhomme, who won the Big Go seven times as a driver. Dixon raced to a second-place finish in Top Fuel, and Johnson's sixth-place finish was a career best for the veteran Funny Car driver.
In 2006, Prudhomme enjoyed two more victories from Johnson and the Skoal Racing Funny Car team as well as a runner-up finish in the lucrative NHRA Showdown bonus event at the U.S. Nationals to finish the season sixth in the points standings. Dixon's Top Fuel team reached one final round in the season, finishing seventh in the team's final season with longtime sponsor Miller Lite. That brought "Snake's" win total to 104 victories as a driver and owner. In 2007, Prudhomme fielded Johnson's Skoal Racing Chevy Impala Funny Car, which doubled up with Dixon in Top Fuel as Snake Racing swept the Englishtown event. Dixon, who drove that season for SkyTel, also recorded wins in Chicago and Dallas to increase Prudhomme's win total to 108.
For the 2008 NHRA season, Prudhomme guided Dixon in the U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Co. Top Fuel dragster to five final rounds and two victories (Phoenix, Pomona 2) en route to a second-place finish in the season points standings; the two victories brought Prudhomme's total win count to 110.
The 2009 NHRA Full Throttle campaign featured the debut of rookie driver Spencer Massey taking over the role as pilot of the U.S. Smokeless Racing dragster for Don Prudhomme Racing. Massey, the 2008 IHRA Top Fuel champion, reached five final rounds and collected his first NHRA Top Fuel win in Chicago and his second in Las Vegas (wins 111 and 112 for Prudhomme). At the end of the season, Massey was named the winner of the Automobile Club of Southern California Road to the Future Award as NHRA's rookie of the year. Prudhomme also teamed with Carroll Shelby as Shelby Autos announced the limited production of the Shelby Super Snake Prudhomme Edition GT 500. Motorbooks International also published Tom Madigan's book: Mongoose vs. Snake – How a Rivalry Changed Drag Racing Forever.

NHRA's Greatest Races series to air on Fox Sports Net

Bill Stephens hosts NHRA's Greatest Races
Take a step down memory lane as NHRA, in cooperation with longtime announcer, television commentator, and author Bill Stephens, relives the great history of NHRA's most memorable events in a 13-week series entitled NHRA's Greatest Races presented by ProCare Rx. NHRA's Greatest Races airs each Sunday at 11:30 a.m. in all time zones for 13 consecutive weeks on Fox Sports Net. The first show aired Sunday, Jan. 3.
"This is a project I've wanted to do for a long time," said Stephens. "Back in the 1970s and 1980s, I was that guy sitting on his couch every weekend watching tape-delayed telecasts of NHRA national events."
NHRA's Greatest Races has been produced to preserve and present the great history and tradition of NHRA and its greatest heroes of the time period, focusing on the people, personalities, and their performances. The 30-minute shows highlight key stories from NHRA national event television coverage from 1972 to 1999, featuring the original race call and commentary of the legendary broadcast team of Dave McClelland and the late Steve Evans. The original footage has been selected from NHRA's extensive video library, much of which hasn't been broadcast for decades.
The shows also feature recent interviews with many of the drivers spotlighted in the races, who reflect on their memorable performances, along with historical commentary and personal observations from longtime NHRA announcer Bob Frey.
The series is sponsored by ProCare Rx and produced by Stephens' production company, Ultimate Garage Productions Inc. Each episode will be on DVD and available exclusively online at www.nhradvd.com.
Shirley Muldowney, far lane, defeated Lucille Lee in the first all-female Top Fuel final at the 1982 Springnationals, one of the featured Greatest Races.
The schedule includes the 1982 NHRA Springnationals at National Trail Raceway in Hebron, Ohio, where NHRA's first all-female Top Fuel final round was contested between three-time world champion Shirley Muldowney and Lucille Lee; the 1978 Mac Tools U.S. Nationals at O'Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis, featuring the dramatic Funny Car final round between Don "the Snake" Prudhomme and Tom "the Mongoose" McEwen shortly after McEwen's teenage son passed away from leukemia; and the 1984 NHRA Gatornationals in Gainesville, where Joe Amato unveiled an enormous rear wing on his Top Fuel dragster that revolutionized the performance capabilities in that category.
NHRA's Greatest Races will reach two audiences: the longtime fans of the sport who want to relive the great history of NHRA's most memorable events that haven't been seen for many years and the new generation of fans who never got to see the legends of the sport race each other.
"I think anyone who watches this series and is a true drag racing fan will get goosebumps seeing the old footage and so many legendary stars racing head to head at the peak of their careers," said Stephens.

Angie Smith
Pro Stock Motorcycle rider Angie Smith will race a full schedule on the 2010 NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series tour aboard Karl and Kim Klement's Buell thanks to sponsorship from Coffman Tank Trucks. Smith's husband, former NHRA Pro Stock Bike champion Matt Smith, will build the team's engines and oversee the program from the crew chief role.
"I really excited about this," said Smith, better known to fans as Angie McBride before her marriage to Smith early this year. "This is the first opportunity I've ever had to race fulltime. This has been my dream and now it's coming true. It's probably the biggest Christmas present I've ever gotten."
Thanks to the sponsorship with Coffman, the Klement Racing team will be ample availability to test as well as conduct research and development programs.
"We are going to have a good program and I feel like we have a team that will perform well," Smith added. "Our biggest goal is to get in the top ten this year and we feel like we have a team that legitimately to do that."
"We have a fantastic deal for 2010," Klement agreed. "I am really excited. The game plan is to win a championship. This will be my third full-time year and with the program that I have with Matt building the engines and Angie riding, is capable of winning a national event at any track on the tour. She just needed some support behind her and with Coffman Tank Trucks, I feel confident that we have got what it takes to get the job done.
Coffman Tank Trucks is owned by J.D. and Terrisa Coffman, former bracket racers who had a working relationship with Klement and attended the NHRA Fall Nationals this September in Dallas.
"I hope this develops into a long term deal because Karl and I have become close friends with everyone," said Coffman. "We're looking forward to it."

Just two years ago, the unemployment rate among IT professionals was approaching 9 percent. It was the highest level in six years -- a full percentage point higher than it was just three months prior.
The IT profession, like most during recession uncertainty, took a hurting, experiencing significant job losses and leaving close to 200,000 IT professionals unemployed, Eric Chabro, executive editor of GovInfoSecurity.com wrote in 2009.
But what the recession took away, cybersecurity awareness revived. Almost two years to the day of the above, Chabro writes again about employment among IT professionals -- but this time with mixed news.
"According to the government statistics, the number of IT security analysts is steadily growing, though not necessarily as fast as employers want," he wrote Tuesday. Statistics show that almost no unemployment exists among information security analysts. In fact, the demand from employers is growing. The IT workforce has increased 27 percent in the last six months.
But despite virtually no unemployment among IT security professionals, the scarcity of women, African Americans, Latinos and women is highly evident, he says.
From his analysis of the Bureau of Labor Statistics data, Chabro says whites, who account for about 80 percent of the American workforce, make up 70 percent of the IT security workforce. African-Americans make up about 12 percent of the overall workforce, but seven percent of IT. Latinos make up 15 percent overall, but five percent of IT. Women also are underrepresented in the IT workforce: eight percent versus 45 percent overall.
Asians make up more than 20 percent of information security analysts, but only five percent of the American workforce, Chabro says. About one-quarter of Indian-born men in the United States are employed in IT, according to the Migration Policy Institute.

These pics include the best photos yet of the F10 M5 interior. We have yet to see an M5 with a manual transmission shifter. The M5 test cars continue to be spied and have already been showing their production interior, wheels, side mirrors, trunk spoiler, among other features. Its hard to believe that the new M5 will not be premiered until the 2011 Frankfurt IAA in September 2011, but it's true.
This is a short but very tantalizing clip of the upcoming F10 M5! Drifting around a wet corner at the Nurburgring, the M5 sounds like it's in the upper RPM range as it powers out of the corner. That's the tweaked version of the S63 V8 twin turbo motor from the X5M/X6M you're hearing, and we expect it to make 585-600hp in the new M5.
The 2012 M5 is expected to premier at the 2011 Frankfurt IAA autoshow in September 2011.
We bring you the first ever photos of the 2012 F10 M5 with its rear camouflage completely removed, but what's underneath is a surprise. It appears to be a 550i bumper (shown by the slanted rectangular exhaust cutout). Perhaps the 550i bumper is on merely for testing? Or is BMW having a little fun with us? Either one is fine with us as we hope the final M5 rear bumper design is more aggressive than this.
Follow our complete F10 M5 coverage: … CONTINUED
We bring you the most revealing F10 M5 photos yet. Save for some camouflage tape, the M5 front fascia design can be clearly seen. We last saw the M5s exposed bumper back in May, but not in this detail and not this exposed.
Compared to the standard F10 5-series, the F10 M5 front bumper is clearly more sculpted and angular, and features the trapezoidal design as seen on the current M3. Huge side air inlets flank the center trapezoid … CONTINUED

As we enter the season of cookouts and fish frys, I thought it'd be fitting to write about the infamous BBQ bruiser. The mosquito. Today's infographic dispels some of the myths behind repelling mosquitoes, their favorite feeding times, and much more.
Turning more frowns upside down than a dry keg, the mosquito isn't easily dissuaded. Contrary to popular belief, garlic or repellent wristbands have little to no effect against a mosquito. Tall flowery smelling blondes beware, you're their ideal feast. Be sure to coat your skin with a little OFF! Deep Woods. Being one of the top repellants, it'll give you about five hours of protection.
Take these tips to your next BBQ along with your party favors and watch your level of enjoyment rise. Enjoy the rest of your hump day and pass this on to all your outdoorsy friends! [via]

Vaccines have been a topic of debate for quite some time. Many parents opt out of vaccinating their children because of scientific rumors, some feel that ancient diseases no longer need vaccinations because of their rarity. Other parents vaccinate their children willingly and unvaccinated playmates cause parents to fear for their child's health. The MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine has sparked controversy after a physician published a paper linking it to autism. This has been widely discredited both by government researchers and private researchers, but the publicity and effect carries on.
As seen in the infographic, some parents are not following CDC suggested vaccine schedules. Parents are skipping doses, delaying vaccines, waiting between consecutive vaccinations and refusing the vaccinations all together. This has an effect on the unvaccinated children as well as their vaccinated playmates. 68% of those diagnosed with measles from 2004-2008 refused vaccinations.
Parental reasons for straying from CDC recommended vaccinations vary, including more control over their child's health, avoiding unnecessary vaccines, safety and side effects. While parents do have ultimate control over their child's health, everyone should make educated decisions about health and wellness. While following a recommended schedule blindly may not be the best route, doing research and having a plan are important to consider when the consequences can affect both your child health and the health of others. For all of you parents, do you vaccinate? Why or why not? [Via]

With the primary coming up tomorrow here in Texas I thought it would be appropriate to post a political infographic today. While its not necessarily the most relevant infographic it is a pretty entertaining one. Today's infographic Drug Use Among Politicians lists a couple of politicians who have admitted to drug use in their past. While I'm not sure where I stand on the issue politicians and the drug use is a major factor in selecting our elected officials. Because holding office, especially the president's is considered prestigious those holding it are held to a higher standard by those electing them. Which makes since, we wouldn't want some junkie or alcoholic leading us. Although Churchill managed to do a decent job overseas.
Some of the officials mentioned in today's infographic are current president Barack Obama, former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, as well as Mayor Bloomberg from New York. All of these men have admitted to smoking marijuana and don't seem to be too remorseful about it.
I personally judge an official based on what they do in office. Something I feel a lot of reasonable Americans do. Whatever these politicians do in their personal life is their business. As long as they are doing their job when they are in office I'd have to say I'm pretty satisfied. Anyway enjoy today's infographic and don't forget to share. [via]

Depending on what type of job you might have, different songs and types of music can have varying effects on your productivity or working environment as a whole. For instance, while heavy metal might not be the best choice for, say, a kindergarten teacher, a trucker driving cross-country might benefit from the loud, fast music as it will help him stay alert and awake.
If you're a desk jockey who works with boring numbers all day there is really nothing you shouldn't listen to, as long as the song has a beat. If you're working with programming, though, the ability to stay focused is important so you might want to skip over the heavier tracks or punk songs.
Today's flowchart-style infographic comes from audio equipment outlet Sonos and gives you a chance to see what music might (and might not) be best-suited for your particular work environment.
For more examples and to see what tunes your job might be best suited for please refer to the infographic below. [Via]

I love cereal. I could easily live off of it for the rest of my life. However, in an attempt to achieve the summer body I've always wanted, I've abstained from by beloved cereal for the past 3 months. It's been crazy hard, but I sure as hell am not missing all those carbs that come with it. Yesterday however, in a moment of weakness, I purchased by favorite frosted mini wheat cereal and consumed the entire box in two days. I felt a lot of guilt after this, but I more felt a warm happiness in having my most favorite cereal. This got me wondering, does cereal offer any kind of nutritional benefit, or am I feeling this guilt for no reason?
Today's infographic compares how much breakfast cereal would equal to the amount of sugar in other snacks. It also gives an overview of what types of cereal contains the most carbs and sugar. The information didn't make me feel any better about my cereal binge, but hey, it was delicious and I don't regret it. I've come to learn that just like other great things, cereal is good in moderation. Now excuse me while I go and make myself a bowl of cereal. [via]

November 28, 2014
WIth reports out there that the Packers have signed receiver Greg Jennings to a new, long-term contract, it means the Packers now have their WR-QB combo locked up for years to come.
Last November the Pack signed QB Aaron Rodgers to a 6-year deal worth more than $66-million. No details as of 7:40pm Tuesday night on Jennings' contract numbers, but reports are it'll make him the 2nd highest paid WR. Which would be between $9.7-10-million annually. That's a heck of a 1-2 punch for the Pack in the years to come...now if they could get a top-notch running back to throw in the mix.
Some may say they've overpaid on Jennings, but if he's truly just scratching the surface, it should be a good deal for both. Plus, I don't see him going "Antonio Freeman" on us after he gets his big payday and start slacking off.

- uwsdaveVIPDined on 10/11/2014We were not impressed by Wolfgang's in Tribeca. We were looking for a great steakhouse experience and the menu presented itself as such. We ordered all the typical items and the food was very good but the service was subpar. The waiter barely engaged us and was disinterested. At the end of the main meal, he dropped the dessert menus on the table and walked away. I typically only write positive reviews, I don't think I've ever given a restaurant below 3 stars but it was an uninspiring experience.Special Features:

- Great food, but..GRUBBDined on 9/20/2014Food was great, at least the steaks - actually among the top ten porterhouse steaks ever. However, the restaurant interior is dull, boring and a bit dated, and the waiter seemed equally bored and totally uninterested in answering any of our queries. They say you'll get insulted at Peter Luger's, but that's at least better than getting no service at all.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 9/17/2014Very accommodating to our large group. Steak was delicious and perfectly cooked. The wait staff was on point. Lively atmosphere, favorite wolfgang location.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- TipShm000Dined on 9/16/2014So I went here with my mother for lunch. Very few customers and we did not even order drink, just steak for 2 people and 2 side menu. The waitress might just come 2 times and it was $137 and the waitress included the 20% tip. I went to the one on Lexington and they did not included tip and I guess because there are so many tourists, mostly Asians and we were Asians too so he might thought we won't tip him good but we did not feel like the service was worth it 20%. The food was already expensive and did not have a great great great service so it made me unhappy.Special Features:
- Elite steakOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/4/2014We decided on Wolfgang's for our monthly guys night out. We've been to dozens of steak houses in the city and this is easily in the top three. Perfectly cooked steak and far and away the best sides of any we've had!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved it!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/28/2014Outstanding Steak, I had a T-bone steak well done, creamed spinach and baked potato and I had enough to take home, service was greatr! Thank youSpecial Features:
- Great food - end was disappointingOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/24/2014The dinner was superb and service started out excellent - until time to pay. The internet was down and it took an hour to pay the bill. The staff apologized but should have out of courtesy sent drinks to the table.Special Features:
- Happy anniversaryKoichiDined on 8/24/2014A Christmas gift from my son turned into an anniversary dinner. I liked the location. The steak was great and sides were simple and very good. It was a quiet enjoyable Sunday evening meal. Our dog is enjoying the leftovers right now : )Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food & ambiance, poor serviceReagbot3kDined on 8/23/2014Food was on par with any other steakhouse for this price, but the service was disappointing. The waiter was generally rude and condescending and did not take any time to walk through the menu or any options. Overall good, not great.Special Features:
- Great HappeningPeterEbnatDined on 8/22/2014We as a German family of 5 people enjoyed our diner so much - it was breathtaking. The steak: winner of world championship :-), wonderful wine, even the taste of Wolfgang´s own edition was excellent. And the service was so nice and awesome that we for sure will come back if we´re going to visit New York again. Try to go there an celebrate your birthday...!Special Features:
- A great steakhouseNYCsteakempire1Dined on 8/7/2014Wolfgang is a restaurant I visit every time I am in NYC. We love the wonderful meat (steak for 2 is our favorite) and we never skip the fresh tomatoes with mozzarella cheese, German potato, and Onion rings. This is our favorite in NYC.Special Features:
- All about steaksMaserottiDined on 8/5/2014If you go to Wolfgangs than you go there for the meat. The porterhouse for 2, 3 or 4 is just wonderful. The service is always professional and if you happen to come from Europe you will most likely have a waiter from the same continent. It's hard to say, if Wolfgang's as good as the original in Brookline, but at least it comes pretty close to Peter Luger. The TriBeCa branch is very nice and a little bit more spacious than the Mid-Town venue at 33rd Street.Special Features:
- Great steakTomSITFDined on 8/2/2014If your in the mood for a great steak and not be disappointed then Wolfgang is the place. Never had a bad piece, sides are delish and staff very friendly!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Steak in ManhattanjonweiswVIPDined on 8/2/2014As a connoisseur of steak, and always trying to find the absolute best in Manhattan, Wolfgang's has consistently proven itself to me as the absolute best steakhouse on the island. With a nod to Peter Luger's, the gold standard by which all high-quality steakhouses are (rightfully) judges, Wolfgang's is on par. The steak is the best Ive had - ever. My wife (oddly, a vegetarian) loves Wolfgang's equally for their accommodating her dietary needs. The service is impeccable. The ambiance energetic at times, but never obnoxiously loud. Out of the three locations in the city, we prefer the TriBeCa one; the Time Square one, while not as hip, is a good spot near the theater district.Special Features:
- The following 911 reviews are from the Wolfgang's Steakhouse - Tribeca reviews archive.
- Excellent steakhouseSluggoDined on 7/30/2014As most already know, this Peter Luger's progeny was the first in a long list of steakhouses that were started by former Luger's staffers. Wolfgang's is still the best of the bunch/ The legend is that Wolfgang was the former head waiter at Peter Luger. I don't know if that's true or not. And really, who cares, it make for a nice story. Steaks, onion rolls, bacon and shrimp as close to the original as you're going to find. Attentive service without the annoying schtick you get from the staff at Lugers. And they take credit cards. What more can you ask for. If you can't get to Williamsburg, Wolfgang's holds its own quite nicely thank you.Special Features:
- The best.Lpv5660Dined on 7/19/2014Every time I have been here the service and food have been outstanding! The best steak my wife and I have ever had.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always Superb!THESTEAKCLUBMEETINGPLACEDined on 7/18/2014I've been to Wolfgang's about a half dozen times. Four of us who love fine steak and the ambience of a TRUE NYC STEAKHOUSE get together for a steak dinner each year. We have eaten at most all of the famous steakhouses in NYC, which I will not name, over the years, but 4 years ago we tried Wolfgang's. It has now become our "GO TO" place for our "Steak Club" dinners. The quality of the meat is second to none, anywhere; the sides are prepared with a meticulous hand and experienced seasoning, and the bacon appetizer is done precisely the way that it should be! Whenever you visit Wolfgang's in Tribeca, it is ALWAYS SUPERB!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BEST STEAK IN YEARStomemDined on 7/16/2014RIB-EYE COOKED PERFECTLY; OYSTERS FRESH AND DELICIOUS. GERMAN POTATOES (HASH BROWNS) REALLY GOOD. HOUSE CABERNET BIG SURPRISE: WONDERFULSpecial Features:
- Best Steak in Town!rockysan7Dined on 7/16/2014I think their Steak is N01 in NYC. Price is high but always enjoy so much for their food! You do not need side dish too much, just enjoy their beautiful steak!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Porterhouse for twooatmealcookieDined on 7/12/2014The porterhouse for two was a perfect medium rare and that's what I was looking for! I will go again just for that.Special Features:
- Excellent meatmgarcia2Dined on 7/11/2014Excellent steakhouse, one of the best in NY because of the meat quality. However, even if the inside is tender, the appearance of the meat is not appealing as too dark! No good for kids neither.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Meat lovers dreamFeeFeeDined on 7/9/2014The service and ambience are excellent. The food is top-notch. I really can't think of one disappointing aspect of our dinner. I would definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Steak for twoMNunezDined on 7/8/2014Went to Wolfgang's to celebrate a new job. Brought the person who took over my old job. We had a perfect night. Highly recommend. My favorite steakhouse in NY.Special Features:
- Screaming babiesThetruthDined on 7/5/2014Terrific restaurant - wonderful food, good service - A few small things to improve : we were kept waiting at the door for 5 minutes as we needed to be shown to our table apparently by the captain - who was not around - surely the hostess should have been allowd to take us to our table. A screaming baby at 9pm at night was quite annoying - I guess nothing can be done about this

The Internet Reacts to the Government Shutdown
Congress couldn't get it together enough to agree on something, and now foreign tourists are going to miss their one chance to see the Statue of Liberty. The government has shut down (mostly)!
Congress couldn't get it together enough to agree on something, and now foreign tourists are going to miss their one chance to see the Statue of Liberty. The government has shut down (mostly)!
Like it or not, fall is here, (pretty much, let's not get technical about it, okay?). We all know what that means -- hot apple cider, digging out your sweaters from the back of the closet, and people going on and on about how much they love pumpkin spice lattes.
Voice actors: the unsung heroes of our childhood. People all over the world know the characters they help to create, but very few people know the faces behind the voices. Today, we want to give some of the great cartoon voices their due. Plus, we love watching them work, talk, or just goof around.
Remember Madballs and Popples? If you, like us, managed to successfully block out most of your childhood, the answer is a resounding "no"!
If Miley Cyrus' performance at the VMA has turned you off of twerking, or if you just find cartoon butts bouncing around hilarious, this is for you.
Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, stop. We're about to make your day a whole lot better, although we can't really take ownership over the adorableness that's about to ensue-- this one's all on the animals. Are you ready? It's puppy attack time!
It's that time of year once again. School is back in session. Don't be so glum about it. There are plenty of ways to make sure you have a successful year at school. Here's our guide to winning this year.
OK, smiles everyone....smiles!
'Breaking Bad' is almost back! We're excited to have the show back, but we're extra-excited for the quantity of Aaron Paul in our lives to increase. You should be too. Here's why.
We know there are plenty of rappers and R&B singers with muscular physiques and sexy silhouettes thanks to social media sites like Twitter and Instagram. Just like you (we know you're guilty), they also indulge in taking "selfies" -- taking a photo of themselves, which usually happens to be in front of a mirror, or having someone else take one of them.

Six Georgia defensive players landed today on the preseason All-Southeastern Conference team as selected by the league's football coaches.
And that number is seven if you include Malcolm Mitchell, who made it as a receiver even though he's ticketed to play cornerback early this season for Georgia's depleted secondary.
Outside linebacker Jarvis Jones and safety Bacarri Rambo'Äîboth All-Americans last year–are Georgia'Äôs only first-team selections. No Georgia offensive player made the first team.
Aaron Murray is the second team quarterback. Arkansas' Tyler Wilson is the first-team quarterback. Nose guard John Jenkins, named today on the watch list for the Bronko Nagurski and Outland trophies, is on the second team.
Georgia had a total of eight players in all on the three teams, which was one less than a year ago.
Alabama and LSU led with 11 selections each this time and Arkansas has 10.
Georgia's third-team selections: Mitchell, defensive end Abry Jones, inside linebacker Alec Ogletree and cornerback Sanders Commings.
Rambo, Ogletree and Commings are all facing suspensions to start the season, but Georgia has only announced Commings' two game-suspension after a domestic violence arrest. Rambo had a second violation of Georgia's drug testing policy.
Jarvis Jones and Rambo were two of nine players named to the first team who were also first team All-SEC after last season.
Jones, also named today to the Nagurski watch list for nation's top defensive player, had 70 tackles and ranked first in the SEC and tied for fifth in the NCAA in sacks. He had 13 ½ sacks last season. Rambo led the SEC and was second in the NCAA with eight interceptions.
The coaches' All-SEC team comes out ahead of SEC Media Days held next Tuesday to Thursday in Hoover, Ala. The media All-SEC team will be released next week.

The JComments is a powerful and easy to use AJAX based comment system for Joomla with flexible ACL, smiles, BBCodes and avatars support. Working on this release took extra eight months, all this effort was spent to make the component more stable and usable. Considerable time was allotted for code optimization and improved compatibility to third-party extensions.
Editor's Note
- This extension inserts a backlink to the developer.
* Advanced ACL system
* Antispam (CAPTCHA) and flood protection
* Multilanguage support (more then 20 languages)
* Smiles & BBCode support
* Avatars
* Easy migration from 3rd party components to JComments (50+ extensions!)
* Simple integration with 3rd party extensions (more than 40 extensions!)
* Joom!Fish support (separate comments for each language)
* E-mail subscriptions
* Quick moderation (from e-mails)
* Report to administrator
* Ban IP
* RSS feeds
* Automatic updates (require Joomla 1.7+)
Support avatars from 3rd party extensions
JComments Avatar plugin adds support avatars from Agora Forum, CommunityBuilder, ccBoard, Contacts, FireBoard, IDoBlog, JomSocial, JooBB Forum, JoomSuite User, K2, Kunena, iJoomla Magazine, Ninjaboard, phpBB3 (Blogomunity p8pbb bridge, JFusion bridge, RokBridge), vBulletin, Gravatar and more;
Easy migration from 3rd party extensions
JComments supports import of comments from third-party components: AkoComment, BeeHeard, CC Comment, Chrono Comments, Cobalt, DatsoGallery, EasyComment, Easy Blog, Ice Gallery, ImproveMyCity, JA Comment, JMovies, JMyLife, JomComment, JoomlaComment, JooComments, JoomGallery, J!Reactions, JVComment, JXtended Comments, K2, Komento, LinkDirectory, LyftenBloggie, Mosets Tree, MusicBox, Music Collection, mXcomment, RDBS Comment, Remository, RS Comments, MightyExtensions Resource, RSGallery2, SliComments, SOBI2, TPDugg, VirtueMart, UdjaComment, ZOO
For me, there is no site delivered without JCommetns.
Combined JComment with a social media plugin works perfect for me.
So back to jcomments then.
Now all these years later, I am disappointed to see that jcomments has not made much improvements to build on its initial good design. It is a solid commenting system but it has failed to update to a more social era.
One example of this: importing from Disqus is a feature that has been requested since 2009, but has been left unadressed and posts about it are just ignored on the developer's forum. For me this is a game breaker obviously, in terms of my own system, but also because it illustrate a lack of development.
So yes, jcomment is good but it only does the bare minimum, which was great for Joomla!1.0 but is no longer enough.
a/ Its "tree" display (very clean).
b/ its immediate compatibility with many "content article" components.
c/ the possibility to import previous comments already existing on my website.
In conclusion, I switched very quickly an existing site with comments to a new comments display, clean and beautiful.
On top the comments are in my website ... no need to use an external platform like Disqus, Intensedebate, or else. The users do not need to subscribe another service to place comments.
Excellent component!
sincere thanks to the creators of Comments Component
Pros: Very easy to install via Extension Manager, loads of features, email notification to users of follow-up comments, quick editing by admins of comments via email, built in kCaptcha, flat or tree view, good documentation, nice price (free!).
Cons: None really. I do concur though with 'donnan' below that it would be nice to be able to change the heading 'Add new comment' to 'Add comment'.
Congrats and thanks to the developers!
Reviews: 8
Ready to use out of the box, huge set of parameters to tune for demanding configurations.
Beautiful styling, no tweaking CSS needed (probably for the first time I have downloaded an extension).
Only thing I miss is paid version without author information in the footer.
Thank you for solid work.
But the tag is [jcomments on] so I just typed that in the article. Yet the tag shows in the front end, and not a place for comments.
Am I doing something wrong? As I say, LOVED this in 1.5, but having some issues in 2.5 and cannot find documentation to help.
The best to you

LEDR: A Subjective Approach to Evaluating and Modifying Control Rooms
Acoustic specifications of control rooms can be easily verified through many techniques, but at present there is no adequate model for predicting subjective response from physical measurements. Currently under the development at Northwestern Computer Music (NCM) is a subjective evaluation technique using the Listening Environment Diagnostic Recording (LEDR), enabling the immediate assessment of changes in stereo imagery that result from changes in acoustical treatment.

Aker Solutions has entered into a share purchase agreement (SPA) whereby it has agreed to transfer operations within its Process and Construction business area to Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (Jacobs). The transfer does not include the US EPC centre in Houston, and the Union Construction business located in the US and Canada, which will all be part of the new Aker Contractors company.

The transaction value is estimated to be approximately NOK 5.5 billion (US$ 913 million), subject to closing adjustments. The consideration will be settled in cash at completion.
