Kobe Bryant's feud with mother aired out via Twitter
- Updated: May 4, 2013
The well-documented financial dispute between Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant and his mother, Pamela, took an awkward turn on Saturday when Bryant vented his frustrations on the matter via social media.
When u give Give GIVE and they take Take TAKE at wat point do u draw a line in the sand? #hurtbeyondmeasure #gavemenowarning #love?
— Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) May 4, 2013
It's incredible how much substance there is to this sub-140-character rant.
First, as I've written many times, Bryant has historically been one of the most enigmatic figures in the sports world and rarely let fans and even his own teammates in. Then, in one fell swoop, he suddenly embraced social media and became candid and transparent. A look through his timeline will yield many fun facts, witty remarks on all things NBA and interaction with fans.
Basically, Kobe became the anti-Kobe in the virtual world and decided he'd give himself to fans.
But this is something entirely different. He's venting on a very personal matter, and letting the world know his side of the story when he really didn't have to. He implies that his mother gave him no warning and that he's hurt by the matter — that instantly humanizes him more than he's done so already by opening up via Twitter. It also shows that no matter how rich and famous someone is, that it may never be enough.
There are so many questions about this bizarre and unfortunate set of circumstances. But here's what we know:
TMZ obtained a copy of the lawsuit and reported that the two sides were entrenched in a battle over memorabilia that includes Bryant's 1998 All-Star ring, trophies from his prep career at Lower Merion High School, Lakers jerseys and shorts and several other items. Bryant's mother is selling the items in order to help purchase a new home.
Before doing so, she struck a deal with Goldin Auctions on a $450,000 advance. Mama Bryant claims that Kobe gave her all of the items on his own accord, while the star guard is disputing that claim. Now that the courts are involved, it's out of their hands and a judge will rule on the matter. The case is still open as of Saturday afternoon.
Again, there are far more questions than answers. What did he give his mother? Better yet, what has she taken from her son already as the statement implies? What's her take on the matter?
This story can't have a happy ending. For a mother and son that seemed to be on the mend after troubles early in his career, that's beyond sad.

I was in Fruita from Thursday PM to Sunday afternoon and I have never seen the camping sprawl like I saw this weekend. Typically, if all the 18 RD campsites are occupied, I would see cars motoring back to town to check out the River or Highline campgrounds. This time, people appeared to drive and put up a tent wherever the he!! they wanted. I saw one tent staked 10 yards from the bottom of Prime Cut and another set up in the 18 Rd trailhead parking lot!
Here's a shot looking south from the bottom of Prime Cut at around 7:30 AM on Sunday.
What's the general consensus on camping in this area?

School Department News
Theatre and Communication
The William Carey University Theatre will present Tony Award winning playwright Mary Zimmerman's "Scenes from Argonautika" (The Voyage of Jason and the Argonauts) October 9 through 11 and 16 through 18 at 7:30 p.m. in the Joe and Virginia Tatum Theatre.
Zimmerman tells this classic saga with a contemporary twist, combining humor and drama, transforming this Greek adventure. The story begins with adventure seeking sailors of the ship Argo following their leader Jason (Joey Roderick of Blue Ridge, GA). Encountering an array of daunting challenges in their "first voyage of the world," Jason and his mighty crew press on in their quest for the Golden Fleece. Argonauts include Meleager (Xavier Martin of Hattiesburg); Idmon (Branden Lindsay of Greenville, S.C.); Tiphys (Logan McCarty of Hattiesburg); Castor (Justin Taylor Abbott of Picayune); Atalanta (Rebekah Romack of Poplarville); Hercules (Billy Burkes of Meridian); and Hylas (Nicoli Hutchison of Picayune). Gods, goddesses, nymphs, and Kings are Amycus (Chris Permenter of Oak Grove); King Aeetes (Burkes); King Dymas (Hutchison); Hera (Miranda Rester of Oak Grove); Athena (Amanda Campbell of Picayune); Medea and Dryope (Nadia Trinanes of Hattiesburg); Andromeda and Eros (Haley Genberg of Warren, PA); and Aphrodite (Ashlyn Watts of Picayune).
Based on the third century Greek epic, "Argonautika" explores a world where magic rules the everyday lives of those passionate enough to seek adventure. This is a world where gods laugh in the face of mortal promises like the one King Pelias makes, "Think of it Jason, to sail so far beyond where anyone has ever sailed… and when you return, covered in glory this kingdom shall be yours."
The production is directed by Tim Matheny, chair of the theatre and communication department. Dewey Douglas of the theatre faculty is technical director for student designers. Scenic designers are Chris Permenter and Jana Barkley of Picayune. The costume designers are Permenter and Ashlyn Watts. Barkley and Billy Burkes are lighting designers, and the sound designers are Joey Roderick and Burkes. Makeup and properties designers are Watts and Haley Genberg. Barkley also is lightboard operator and Sawyer Walters of Hattiesburg is sound board operator. Stage hands are Johonna Bush of Foxworth; Karlie Buss of Hilltop Lakes, TX; and Dana Buckley of Gulfport.
Tickets are $10 for general admission, $8 for military and senior citizens, and $5 for students. Reservations can be made by calling 601-318-6221. The box office is open Monday through Friday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. beginning October 6.
Hattiesburg, MS, June 30, 2014 - William Carey University's Carey Dinner Theatre will present the popular country music-themed comedy "Pump Boys and Dinettes" July 8-19 in the Joe and Virginia Tatum Theatre.
Set in a diner and gas station on Hwy 57 half way between Smyrna and Frog Level, Georgia, "Pump Boys and Dinettes" tells the story of four "good ole boys" and two sassy waitresses as they describe life on their stretch of highway. Jackson (Jason Piglia of Picayune), L.M. (Ben Salters of Ocean Springs), Eddie (Joey Roderick of Blue Ridge, GA), and Jim (Kevar Maffitt of Olive Branch), Prudie (Jordan Dobbins of Florence, AL), and Rhetta (Olivia Broome of Carson) bring L.M.'s Garage and the Double Cupp Diner to life with award winning songs such as "Be Good or Be Gone," "Farmer Tan," and "The Night Dolly Parton Was Almost Mine."
Featuring pianist Tae Young Hong of Seoul, South Korea, the play uses a variety of instrumentalists including Allison Gilliard of Tallahassee, FL, on fiddle, Piglia on drums and bass, Roderick on guitar and bass, and Salters on bass. Even kitchen utensils are utilized as percussion.
Conceived and written by John Foley, Mark Hardwick, Debra Monk, Cass Morgan, John Schimmel and Jim Wann, the show moved from off-Broadway to Broadway, where it received a Tony Award nomination for Best Musical of 1982. It would finish its run after more than 570 performances and enjoy a revival in 2011. Critics have deemed the show "a fantastic slice of Americana," and the New York Post says that it is "totally terrific."
Tim Matheny of the WCU theatre and communication faculty directs the 19 song show and Melissa Beauvais, adjunct dance instructor, choreographs the country music-themed show. The musical director is Howard Keever, professor of music theory at WCU. The design team includes technical director and set designer Cody Stockstill of the Mississippi State University faculty; lighting designer Chris Wooten; and costume designer Kelly James-Penot of the University of Southern Mississippi faculty. The tech crew includes costume design assistant Rebecca Traylor of Vicksburg, and technicians Gabby D'Arcangelo of Olive Branch; Allison Gilliard; Andrew Malone of Hattiesburg; Michaela Moore of Biloxi; Sean Murphy of Ocean Springs; Joey Roderick; Caitlyn Shows of Carriere; and Michele Walker of Madison.
"This is the perfect show for a venue like Carey Dinner Theatre," says managing director Obra Quave. "Our audience receives a unique dining encounter by being served their meal by the cast and crew and, with the musical already set in a diner, the audience becomes part of the experience."
The box office is open daily from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and reservations can be made by calling (601) 318-6221. Tickets are $29 and include buffet meal, sales tax and show.

The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011.

The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Phillips Maximizing Efficiencies with ITA case study on Infrastructure in Services
former Director, Philips Global Infrastructure Services
Executive summary
For Philips Electronics India, the scale of the business at home as well as its need to stay in sync with the parent company's global operations has created challenges and opportunities at several levels. These range from straightforward consolidation of servers to finding ways of deriving a 'single view' of the customer and creating 'virtual redundancies' for talented people.
Reader ROI
- To find ways of deriving a single view of the customer
- Creating 'virtual redundancies' for talented people
Arun Gupta, former director of Philips Global Infrastructure Services, has 39 people on his 'in-house' staff supporting the company's 5,000 employees across 30 locations. With another 75 outsourced staff handling day-to-day IT operations, Gupta believes, "The focus of my team is business management and managing the IT expectations of the business units."
Case Study Highlights
- Philips has 5,000 employees across 30 locations and had revenue worth Rs 3,500 crore (2005-06)
- There are some 25 terabytes of information in the organization, and Philips' IT team has to ensure its constant availability to everyone
With Philips outsourcing most of its activities, its IT team is fairly lean. Its competitive edge is derived from tapping the expertise that the team brings to the table, and translating it into business systems for the company to use, says Gupta. "Outsourcing has given us a fair amount of flexibility on scaling up or down and, to that extent, the ability to control costs," he says. There are some 25 terabytes of information in the organization, and Philips' IT team has to ensure its constant availability to everyone. This leaves a very small window to keep everything backed up and in sync for disaster recovery. These are some of the challenges on a daily basis. In leveraging scale - Philips prides itself in being a large IT buyer - the company is able to get a fair amount of benefit. Further, with each business unit being independent, its IT team attempts to create synergies among them, building collaborative tools such as knowledge portals. At the same time, Philips has started a new initiative to take a closer look at the customer.
With the convergence that IT enables, and brought about by market changes, Philips is able to do this targeted 'management' of its customers. The biggest driver for this 'master data management' is the uniformity of the systems and the masters - the way you create and use them. Philips started the process of synchronizing the masters across various business units. This is still work in progress but at the end of it, Gupta thinks, the company will have a much better view of the customers - and be able to come up with specific proposals for them. Every system has a customer master. When companies deploy systems based on business units, each BU ends up owning its customer master. And the way they use the master will be in accordance with that. This will then be different for each BU, which means that the way one accounts for each customer will be business-unit specific. The synchronization can combine the masters to give Philips a single view of customers across BUs. The systems for which the masters are being synchronized include financial accounting, sales and distribution, and CRM. Within each, there will be a multiplicity of systems.
Diversity of technology is one challenge for a company as large as Philips Electronics India. Another is conflict of business priorities - one division wants one thing and another wants something else - for "there is always a pressure between creating a local optima and a global optima," as Gupta puts it. People want to optimize their own operations because they get measured by that, whereas the challenge for the organization is "to create global optima". "We look at the big picture and that's where greater synergies can be created," asserts Gupta.

Volatility, Natural-Gas, Food Funds Slump
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Re-crossing the Dow 10,000 threshold signals a retreat of bearishness in the stock market, adding confidence to U.S. consumers and businesses. The CBOE SPX Volatility Index, a measure of bearish sentiment, has steadily dropped back to pre-panic levels over the past year.
No exchange traded product did worse than the iPATH S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (VXX) in the third quarter. It fell 27%. (Inverse and leveraged funds were excluded.) The exchange traded note currently bets investor money on CBOE VIX October and November 2009 futures contracts, each day rolling more of the October contracts into November. This was the wrong time to gamble on higher volatility.
The commodity plays of worst performers fall into one of two categories: energy or food. Of the five energy funds listed, the United States Natural Gas Fund (UNG) lost 15% of its value last quarter as the spot price of Henry Hub natural gas declined 11.4%.
The United States Oil Fund (USO) leaked 4.6%, even with the spot price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil gaining 1% for the quarter due to the inherent risks of the fund's investment strategy, including risks associated with trading futures contracts. The iPath Dow Jones-UBS Energy Subindex Total Return ETN (JJE) has an index mixture of 51% West Texas Intermediate crude, 24% natural gas, 14% unleaded gasoline and 11% heating oil. The basket combined for a loss of 5.2% in the third quarter.If the ninth-worst performing ETF, the PowerShares DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund (UUP), continues to slide and gasoline inventories continue to tighten, the broader Energy Subindex ETN could become the best of the worst performers in the coming months.

ARMED with a most generous £1 ice cream cornet, bought near the entrance to the Westgate Centre, I was ready for the unusual that is often found in Queen Street. I'm never disappointed.
Making her farewell appearance before returning that evening to the Royal College of Music in Manchester to read – and sing – for her master's degree, was Josephine, the talented young soprano from Witney. She brings a touch of class to the busking scene of the city.
"See you at Christmas," she said before plonking a welcome kiss on my left cheek. I'll be counting the days.
A small girl, accompanied by her mother and grandmother, without any prompting, felt compelled to tell me her name was Amelia and that she was four-years-old. Congratulating her on this milestone, I admitted to once being four-years-old. Her brow furrowed.
"Are you sure?" she asked, her words delivered with almost tangible suspicion.
A young woman, clad in a black gown and clutching a mortar board, whizzed along towards New Road on a skateboard, missing buses and public by inches. She was applauded rather than condemned. The final act of this alfresco cabaret was provided by a man, his nakedness hidden only by an overcoat, being led from Marks and Spencer's by the strong arm of the law.
"Leave him alone!" called an elderly woman with green hair.
Tuesday morning was far from dull.
NEITHER was Monday evening. I went to the New Theatre to see Dreamboats and Miniskirts a delightful show crammed with music from the 1960s, performed by a young and multi-talented company. Among them was Headington's David Luke, a former Cherwell School pupil who was playing one of the leading roles.
"Oxford will always be my home and to return here is the highlight of any tour," he told me.
David was here earlier in the year for the show's forerunner, Dreamboats and Petticoats.
Before the show, management asked for mobile phones to be switched off. The request appeared to be universally observed. But you should have seen the dash of young and old alike to resume contact with fellow phone addicts once the curtain fell.
FINALLY a word of appreciation. If you've ever bought beautiful homemade greetings cards from the Covered Market's Helen and Douglas House shop, like me, you'll be sorry to hear of the death of the ever-cheerful 'northern lass', Betty Simpson. Recently she and her husband Colin moved from Water Eaton to be nearer their family. She'll be missed – as will her handyworks that are real works of art and have raised hundreds of pounds. Thanks Betty.

Keilee Bessho, Senior, La Cañada
BURBANK — There was double the significance to the victory earned by the Bellarmine-Jefferson High boys' basketball team Friday evening.
For professional golfer Emily Tubert, it was a chance of a lifetime, although she admitted, "It was the most nervous I've ever been in my entire life."
GLENDALE — All it took was 30 seconds and a little bit of hustle for Burbank High sophomore forward Kira Bochard to break a season-long drought for her Bulldogs girls' soccer team.

BURBANK — Maybe there's more than one crosstown rivalry within the Burbank city limits.

There was only a one-win difference between the Burbank High and Burroughs football programs in the Pacific League this past season.
BURBANK — Two games into the Burbank High girls' water polo tournament and perhaps the attitude has changed for the host squad.
LA CAÑADA — With the way the La Cañada High girls' water polo team dominated Burroughs in the early going of the teams' nonleague match Thursday, it looked as if the Spartans would roll to a likely victory.
BURBANK — The La Cañada High girls' soccer team that took the field Wednesday in a nonleague game against Burbank didn't much resemble the squad that advanced to the CIF Southern Section championship last season.
BURBANK — Whether its picking off an errant pass or diving on the court for a loose ball, Abbey Ibarra is ready and willing to do what it takes for a victory.

With a large portion of its squad returning, the mood surrounding the Bellarmine-Jefferson High boys' basketball team is one of anticipation and confidence.
The local high school boys' soccer landscape has changed a bit since last season.
For most of the cross-country season, the local narrative circled around the Burroughs High boys' cross-country team, Burbank High junior Candela Fernandez and then everyone else.
For the girls' basketball teams at Burbank High, Burroughs and Providence, the combination of veteran coaching and senior leadership has been instrumental in the local programs enjoying consistent success in recent years, especially last season.

Linda Hogan Wants Harley, Hulk in Jail
Linda Hogan isn't happy that she hasn't received the Harley Davidson she claims is owed to her from her divorce agreement with her ex-husband Hulk Hogan.
If Hulk -- real name Terry Bollea -- fails to relinquish the motorcycle, Linda wants him "incarcerated," FoxNews.com reports.
In the suit filed in court, Hulk's ex-wife also claims he failed to pay her $225,000 per their settlement.
"We are proceeding against the Hulk with enforcement and contempt proceedings to make him comply with the marital settlement, whether he likes the agreement or not, and regardless of his stalls, emotional issues and games," her lawyers said in a statement.
A rep for the former pro-wrestler shot back. "Linda will receive everything she is entitled to under the agreement as soon as it is available to give to her."
Cibrian filed for divorce from his wife of eight years. The 'CSI: Miami' star is now involved with country singer LeAnn Rimes, who recently separated from her husband Dean Sheremet.

Is there any Management API to find Azure VM creation date? There is Get hosted service properties API for Cloud service creation date but we are not able to find out Azure VM creation date.
There isn't a way to get this via the Windows Azure APIs that I'm aware of. Are you trying to remotely get this value, or get it for use on the instance?
If you are on the instance you might try to get it based on WMI. Here it is in PowerShell, but you can adapt to C#, VB.NET, or another Scripting language that can get at the WMI info.
I tried this on an Azure VM and it returned basically the creation of the VM to me. You might want to test this result over time though. Also, this would only get you the time in which the VM was actually spun up. So, if you have an instance A that is running along well, then the hard drive faults on it and the Fabric Controller moves the instance to another location in the DC and spins it back up then the install date will likely be the time it was moved. This may be exactly what you are looking for, or maybe not depending on your requirements.

Game just not working.
View Single Post
Well, it's currently my mum who is paying for the internet after countless attempts to ask her to get it sorted she still seems to believe it's fine the way it is (she doesn't use it much). We were with AOL but apparently they've switched to TalkTalk (didn't notify us), my mum has phoned several teams to leave them, but they always intice you back in with a good deal then a few months down the line the internet is garbage again.
I'm not sure who the ISP is, but when I run a speedtest on speedtest.net it says that my ISP is TalkTalk.
I don't know why this is happening, everything seems to be loading extremely slow now everytime I restart my computer, but once I can actually get something loaded it seems to load faster after the initial time.
take yesterday for example, it took me like 2 hours to get SWTOR from launcher > login, then I could close the game and re-launch and get logged in again within 2 minutes. After restarting pc it's back to loading extremely slow again.
I was messing around with connections yesterday and seemed to have lost my wireless connection so I'm back to using the big chunky yellow ethernet cable using a LAN.
EDIT: Ye I've had this garbage internet for a few years now but I'm used to it, it puts it into perspective when you see someone complaining about having a slow 2 mb download speed, that would take them less than half a second to download that file and it takes me upwards of 13 minutes. facepalm. Mums been saying for about 5 months she'll get a new internet but still waiting.

Originally revealed shortly before E3 commenced, Forza Horizon 2 was playable on the show floor this week.
The sequel to Playground Games' brilliant Forza Horizon once again takes place during the fictional Horizon Festival and will let players explore an open-world area, which this time is set in Southern Europe and said to be three times larger than that in the original game.
CVG's Gav Murphy and Official Xbox Magazine's Jon Hicks are at the E3 expo all this week, and they recently got their hands on Forza Horizon 2. Watch our video preview below to see why they think putting Forza 5's Drivatars in an open-world environment is "a bit Skynet", and why they still think it's going to be brilliant despite (or because of) this.

Lesson No. 1 learned from trails and ultras: strength work is crucial to staying healthy as a runner.
In Photo: Max King, en route to winning the 10K trail race at last summer's Teva Mountain Games in Colorado.
After the 50-mile foray, I decided to redirect my focus and figure out how to get through an ultra with a satisfying, rather than death slog inducing experience. I also realized that "hey, I have a little speed compared to some of the trail guys, maybe I should stick to shorter distances", so I took up mountain running. That turned out to be a rather good decision after a mountain running world title fell in my lap this past year in Albania. I'll come back to ultras in a bit. It also turns out that running up sheer mountain faces and adding in a lot of hills is really, really good for your aerobic capacity and leg strength. Who would have thought? I guess Arthur Lydiard and my college coach, Jerry Smith, were right all along.
In preparation for the 2010 mountain running championships I figured it would be a brilliant idea to actually start running more hills. Three months later I had my ass handed to me on the Mt. Washington hill climb by some really strong mountain runners. I knew what I was in for going into it, though. For everyone that thinks that mountain runners are slow and untalented from looking at their 10K and half marathon times keep in mind that's like comparing curling to hockey, sure, they're both on ice but it ain't the same sport. To run up a hill like Mt. Washington takes a lot of pain management and a very good VO2max.
What I noticed the most wasn't that I could now run up really long hills without puking, but it was that back on the track I was now cranking out times in workouts that I was previously only able to do at sea level, with a group, on a perfect day. I was feeling stronger toward the end of long runs and recovering faster from hard efforts. What I've found, and it may be obvious to many of the great coaches and athletes out there, is that running long hills of 10-15-minute intervals at below threshold effort gives you the benefits of threshold runs but without the fatigue and stress on your legs of the fast paces required on level surfaces.
I've completed two marathons prior to heading into this Olympic trials. The first was my fail at the New York City Marathon in 2009. [King ran 2:19:11, finishing 18th overall and placing 11th in the U.S. championships.] In 2010, I went to Baltimore to solidify a quality marathon performance. Running hard but in control I ended up at 2:15:34. Difficult to say what I would have run in New York had I been more conservative, but the only thing that I changed between the two marathons was the added hill work. The increase in strength and aerobic capacity I felt in training and racing were without a doubt a result of hours spent slogging up and bounding down hills.
Lesson No. 2 learned from trails and ultras: hill work is important for flat races as well.
Each year of running out of my comfort zone, extending myself into unknown territories, and pushing limits in training and racing has taught me more about myself than if I had followed a more traditional path. This year, after three years of trying, I finally completed a successful 50K. By that, I mean that I came in with a race nutrition plan, executed it, and finished the last 6 miles strong and in control without the slog of death descending on me like a 600-pound gorilla. I learned through gleaning knowledge from other successful ultra runners and through trial and error, a lot of error, how to execute a successful race. I gained understanding of my strengths and weaknesses by actually testing them in race situations. Not being afraid to fail is key in the process of becoming self-aware. And a high level of self-awareness is something that all great athletes share.
For me, trail running accelerated my understanding of myself because if forced me into uncomfortable and unknown situations. It forced me to adapt my training, and in doing so showed my weaknesses, but also my strengths, and it made me re-evaluate how I thought a race should be run by listening to the experience of other runners.
Lesson No. 3 learned from trails and ultras: training and competing outside of your comfort zone with different stimuli can be a great introspective teaching tool.
I race a lot. I run trails races both short and long. I run mountain races. I run cross-country and I run the roads. Most importantly, I run. It's an unconventional path to what I'm hoping is a respectable finish, and who knows maybe an Olympic birth. Who knows what path I'll end up on for the next Olympic trials, all I know is that it will be different than the last four years.

Retina. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section through a freeze-fractured retina, showing the light-sensitive rods and cones and their associated neurones. Light entering the eyes passes through the bipolar neurones in the nuclear layers (grey, lower frame). It then hits the rods and cones (pink yellow, upper frame). The rods, used in dim light, are found at the retinal margins. The cones, which control colour vision and acuity (sharpness), function best in bright light. They are concentrated in the centre of the retina. Information from both is passed to the neurons, which relay it to the optic nerve (not seen).

With the 1.1.6 version, jquery worked fine on the product page (default theme) with the tabs adapted from the modern theme.
Since i upgraded to v1.1.7 it doesn't work anymore.
i applied the wiki method that was good for v1.1.6 but it's broken with v1.1.7.
Does anyone managed to make jquery working on v1.1.7?
Have you tried to run jQuery.noConflict() ?
My recommandation: You should use prototype and don't install other library. Scriptaculous + prototype can do all the jQuery things…
i found that when i replace the new prototype.js by the 184.108.40.206 it works again after restarting apache
my problem is solved
thanks a lot
Try jQuery 1.2.3

C5 Corvette Sway Bars - Bar Talk
Hotchkis Sport Sway Bar Set
Our installation took place at Hotchkis' shop in Santa Fe Springs, California. The company manufactures suspension upgrades for all makes and vintages of performance vehicles, which explains the Mopar in the background.
With the car on the lift, we can get a good look at the OEM front sway bar. Although this Z06-spec bar is considerably stiffer than the one found on the base C5, the new Hotchkis unit is claimed to be 115 percent stiffer still.
Begin the job by removing the lower endlink nuts...
...followed by the four bolts (two per side) that secure the bar to the frame. You should then be able to pop out the lower-endlink studs and slide the bar out of the vehicle.
Raise the new Hotchkis bar into place and install the included bushings.
These bushings are permanently impregnated with a dry lubricant, and no additional lube is required.
Maneuver the bushings so that their placement mimics that of the OEM pieces. With that done, apply anti-seize to the original sway-bar bolts and partially reinstall the brackets.
Begin threading the bolts by hand to avoid stripping the threads in the aluminum frame. Don't fully tighten the brackets at this point; you'll need to be able to rotate the bar within the bushing in order to complete the next step.
Hotchkis offers the package in two different forms: PN 2285 (used here) includes sway bars and bushings that work in conjunction with the stock Z06 endlinks, while PN 2234 adds upgraded endlinks to the mix. The Hotchkis links offer maximum performance and durability at the expense of a skosh more road noise. Whichever kit you choose, installing the endlinks and tightening the frame brackets to 35-40 lb-ft completes the front-end portion of the job.
With the front sway bar installed, it's time to move on to the rear bar, shown here.
As with the front bar, this portion of the job begins with the removal of the lower-endlink nuts.
Use a spray lubricant if necessary to help break them free.
Next, remove the upper bolts that hold the sway bar to the frame, followed by the nuts on the lower frame mount. Leave the lower bolts in place, as these secure the lower A-arms to the car. Push out the lower-endlink studs and remove the bar from the vehicle.
Using the factory parts as a reference, install the new bushings on the Hotchkis bar.
The three mounting holes in the Hotchkis bar (top) make it possible to dial in different levels of stiffness to match your vehicle specifications and driving requirements. Depending on the setting, the bar can be configured to offer 60, 100, or 150 percent more stiffness than the factory piece.
Lift the new bar into place and secure it by loosely reinstalling the frame brackets. Remember to use anti-seize compound on the threads of the bolts.
Install the endlinks, inserting each top link into one of the three holes on the end of the new bar. Hotchkis recommends starting with the outermost (loosest) setting, then working your way inward (increasing stiffness) as needed.
With the endlinks in place, tighten the bolts in the upper and lower frame mounts (to 35-40 lb-ft and 60-65 lb-ft, respectively) to complete the installation. Check these bolts after 100 miles of driving and retighten them if necessary.
The Hotchkis sway bars are powdercoated black, lending a welcome dose of understated style to the Z06's underbody. The rear-facing company logo is a savvy bit of marketing, considering that's the position from which the car's on-track competition is likely to view it.
Our test car had previously been fitted with a methanol-injected ProCharger system, in preparation for its role as camera car during the filming of a Hotchkis promotional video. With the new sway bars in place, the Z acquitted itself admirably during the shoot, handily outpacing several comprehensively modified muscle cars on Socal's famous Streets of Willow road course.
