text: Tuesday, May 23, 2006 Subsistence fishing rights in Alaska to king salmon protected: On Friday, May 12th, the Native American Rights Fund successfully represented upper river subsistence users in a challenge to a Board of Fisheries decision that limited commercial fisheries at the mouth of the Copper River to allow increased number of king salmon upriver to meet subsistence needs. The challenge was brought by the Cordova Gill-net Fishermen United who argued that the limit would harm their financial profits. Judge Craig Stowers rejected a request for an injunction on regulations that would have eased limits on commercial fishing. Citing testimony from upriver subsistence users who say they are not catching enough fish to feed their families, Stowers ruled against Cordova District Fishermen United, which represents the Cordova commercial fishing fleet. Subsistence needs "trump" all other uses, regardless of how hard Cordova commercial fishermen have worked to create a market for Copper River king salmon, Stowers said. "In light of Alaska's public policy to protect and promote subsistence use and in light of the undisputed evidence that subsistence users testified that they were not receiving enough fish, the court finds that an injunction would cause significant harm to them," Stowers ruled.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Nellie!
Facts about Nellie
- Breed: Chihuahua
- Color: White - With Black
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Nellie's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Nellie is a 2 yr. young very quiet, timid, sweet, devoted 5 lb. (F) Chihuahua saved off the 58 freeway soundwall freeway dumped, alone and scared. Nellie is loving proof of how rotten "people" lack the human capacity of caring!
Rescued by a very loving family, Nellie was so scared from the trama of being dumped and abandoned on the side of a buy freeway she could not stop shaking for over a day! All she needed to restore her confidence and security was to be help, snuggled and cuddled. Nellie loves to share her day together just knowing you're there including cuddling next to you watching TV and has made friends learning to run & play with her companions. Nellie needs a very quiet, sharing mom/dad to snuggle, loves her sweater on a chili night going out, cuddle and always know she is loved and a part of your shared lifetime and will instantly melt into your hear as she looks into her soft eyes as you hold her and she shares a very sweet kiss as if to say "I love you too"! Nellie is a very special, completely devoted loving heart waiting for someone to love her as much as you will love her. Are you the one?
Other Pets at Rainbow Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Nellie, a California City Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in California City, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in California City.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in California City already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a California City breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in California City paves the way for another one to be saved.

UNION MILLS (AP) — Thick black smoke billowed from a LaPorte County grain elevator after a fire broke out where crews were working the day after a deadly explosion.
The fire Tuesday was at the top of the grain bins of the Union Mills Co-op but didn't spread. No injuries were reported.
Facility owner Co-Alliance LLP says crews doing dismantling work likely exposing smoldering grain to the wind. Co-Alliance safety manager Shawn Lambert tells WSBT-TV the fire burned a rubber belt on a conveyor system.
LaPorte County sheriff's Sgt. Brian Piergalski tells WNDU-TV that authorities evacuated some nearby homes because of explosion worries in the town of Union Mills about 30 miles southwest of South Bend.
Grain dust is the suspected cause of Monday's blast that killed 67-year-old worker James Swank.

The SpaDolly™ trailer operates like a large hand truck. It is designed so that one person can load a spa onto the trailer whether the spa is sitting on its base or on its edge. One person can also unload a spa to these two positions. One person can maneuver the loaded SpaDolly™, as well. If there is room to position the spa when it is on the SpaDolly™ trailer, no other equipment is needed.
When you understand how the SpaDolly™ and SpaKart™ work together you will really appreciate the innovation built into our Spa Handling System. The spa is easily loaded onto the SpaKart™ using the SpaDolly™ Trailer. Just insert the axles into the SpaKart frame carried on the rear of the SpaDolly™. Stand the trailer up to the 45 degree position. Push on the top edge of the spa. It and the SpaKart™ will pivot on the brackets holding the SpaKart™ frame. When the spa reaches the vertical position it will already be sitting on the SpaKart™. Pull the trailer away and the brackets slip out of the SpaKart frame to leave the spa and SpaKart™ standing alone.
One person can load a spa that is sitting on its base using the hand winch to pull the spa up the front of the trailer. A spa can also be unloaded to its base by sliding it off of the front of the trailer.
One person can load a spa that is sitting on its edge from the rear of the SpaDolly™. The spa unloads to its edge from the rear of the trailer, as well.
The SpaDolly™ trailer can also be loaded and unloaded with a forklift. Approach the trailer from the rear where the frame is configured to allow for the forks to clear once the spa is in place.
The SpaKart™ can be carried on the trailer. The SpaKart™ frame is carried on the loading forks at the rear of the trailer. The axles for the SpaKart™ are carried in the receivers in front of the fenders on each side of the trailer. The t-handles are carried in brackets under the front of the SpaDolly™
The box containing the spa cover can be carried on the lower frame of the trailer. It is held in place by one of the ratchet straps that secures the spa to the trailer, and by a bungie strap under the front of the SpaDolly™
The SpaDolly™ will stand at a 45 degree angle. This feature provides a great way to display a spa at home shows or at your place of business. It also makes it easy to load and unload spas from the rear of the trailer.

Editors' Top PicksSee All
Take the HP Photosmart Premium Fax all-in-one, strip away the fax machine and auto-document feeder and you have the HP Photosmart C6380. It retains all the features you need to bring your photos to life: 9,600 by 2,400dpi flatbed scanner, dual paper feed printer, standalone copier, multipurpose card reader, and wireless networking. After a thorough testing, our only gripe is that the output quality suffers from minor hiccups and lighter saturation than more expensive printers on the market. Still, at $200, the Photosmart C6380 hits the sweet spot for the photo enthusiast who wants an all-in-one without the hassle of a fax machine.
Design and features
Compared with the rounded corners and circular shape of the Photosmart Premium Fax all-in-one, the C6380 carves out a much leaner figure. Its short stature (17.79 inches long by 15.97 inches wide by and 8.17 inches deep) and rectangular control panel across the front of the device still looks like a classic printer, but with a modern twist: a 2.4-inch color LCD pops up out of the front-left corner. The screen swivels back and forth, and you can even set it flush against the printer in a variety of positions. The onscreen menus are easy to navigate, and we especially like that the top corner of the home screen contains a small graphical representation of a cartridge that shows you when it's time to buy more ink.
Whereas other printers clutter up the control panel with unnecessary buttons and stickers, we like the C6380's simplicity. Across the front, there's a directional pad and a corresponding "OK" button, a few photo editing shortcuts like zoom and red-eye removal, direct copy and scan buttons, and a "print photos" button that pulls images directly from the card reader on the bottom of the device. There's a PictBridge compatible USB port for direct printing from a digital camera as well.
The C6380 handles inbound paper and outbound prints with dual paper trays that sit on top of one another at the base of the printer. HP continues to impress us with its dual input trays: one for standard 8.5 inch by 11 inch paper, and a separate drawer for smaller 3.5 inch by 5 inch photo paper, which eliminates the need to swap out paper. It's a huge convenience that will save you a lot of time and hassle over the course of this printer's life cycle. The driver comes setup to automatically choose the correct type of media for a particular job, but you can also manually override it to choose one yourself.
The C6380 is also equipped with 802.11b/g wireless connectivity and a small LED on the far right of the control panel indicates connection status with a green light. HP has streamlined the wireless setup process for all of its printers and the C6380 is no exception. You can either access the wireless "wizard" directly through the settings in the printer's menu or use the driver CD to set up an ad-hoc wireless connection through USB. Both ways are incredibly easy and should have you up and running on a Mac or PC in less than 5 minutes. Finally, there's an Ethernet port on the back of the printer for connecting the C6380 directly to a wired network.

Surgical Revisions
Sometimes, weight loss operations do not work. You may not lose enough weight to improve your health, or you may regain weight.
If this is the case, you should make an appointment to see your surgeon. This may be a result of your behavior, but more importantly, it may be a result of the normal course of your operation. If this is the case, your surgeon may suggest that an operation to revise or change your operation would be helpful.

#WMS 2012 recap: Rooster & Moon
Eric Gruneisen A Mouthful of Thunder performing at the Rooster & Moon at the Westword Music Showcase.
Every year, for the Westword Music Showcase, we enlist our army of Backbeat wordsmiths to host various stages, and, in addition to their emcee obligations, we ask them to pull double duty (or triple-duty in some cases) and also write up the acts that appear on their individual stages. Mark Sanders hosted the Rooster & Moon stage. Page down to read his thoughts and see some photos.
Eric Gruneisen Alphabets performing at Rooster & the Moon during the Westword Music Showcase.
The monkey noises over programmed beats should've made it clear to anybody within earshot that Alphabets, who got things started at Rooster and Moon, makes challenging music. The set was full of Space Invader accents, looped tribal beats and plain-spoken lyrics about Satan, death and getting paid.
Eric Gruneisen Kevin Costner Suicide Pact performing at Rooster & Moon during the 2012 Westword Music Showcase.
Kevin Costner Suicide Pact -- with a name like this, you know shit's gonna get weird real quick. KCSP didn't let the tiny afternoon audience here down, either, interspersing samples of god-knows-what with gently strummed electric guitar and a truckload of reverb. This is meditative music, something best enjoyed in, say, a very dark room with a glass of red wine: It's slowcore music for fans who are burned out on their Mogwai records.
Eric Gruneisen Men In Burka performing at Rooster & the Moon during the Westword Music Showcase.
Men in Burka is a three-piece with a mutual flair for Bollywood melodies. As the crew bounced around, they were clearly having a blast. Odd as the setting was -- they were playing in the middle of the day at a coffee shop, whereas the music would've been better suited for late night in a club -- Men in Burka pulled it off well. No singing here, though the heavy synth-bass more than compensated for the sparseness of the set. The set ended much like it began: all mid-tempo and pulsating.
Eric Gruneisen Iuengliss performing at Rooster & the Moon during the Westword Music Showcase.
The third and final electronic set of the day was provided by Iuengliss, led by Tom Metz, whose love for hip-hop genius GZA was apparent throughout the half-hour performance. Metz's samples were tastefully chosen, weaving in '90s R&B hooks with snippets of hard-to-identify rhymes that seemed to come from the hull of a large oil tanker.
Eric Gruneisen Randy Ramirez of the Heyday performing at Rooster & the Moon during the Westword Music Showcase.
Randy Ramirez of the Heyday is a songwriter with a capital "S." The mid-afternoon set was a (perhaps unconscious) ode to great '70s singers like Jackson Browne. Ramirez's demeanor came across well, and could have made even the most cynical listener's heart melt a little. "Good Old Days" was especially well done, and Ramirez's singing and solo acoustic guitar-playing was flawless.

The murderer in question is the yokel-toned Hillary Van Wetter (John Cusack), who has been convicted of the brutal murder of a local sheriff. Helping Ward out on the case are his partner, Yardley Acheman (David Oyelowo), an African American journalist with a bad temper, and his kid brother Jack (Efron), who has aspirations of also becoming a write. The tale is narrated by the Jansen's housekeeper, Anita (Macy Gray), who curdles out her lines with an over-emphasised twang, yet still manages to generate an incredible degree of sympathy, tapping into the racial themes of the movie, whilst also in contrast to Yardley's ire. However, the real talent behind The Paperboy lies in its central cast.
It is McConaughey, however, who was born for Daniels' movie, channelling some of the darkness we saw in William Friedkin's Killer Joe (2011), offering up yet another impressive performance as the dogged journo. Ultimately, The Paperboy is to be enjoyed for its ultra-camp performances, so delightfully hammy and over the top that they swiftly become mesmeric. Wild directorial flourishes, such as the grainy 1960s film stock aesthetic, enhance the thick-aired heat of tale, submerging you into a world laced with constant injustice. However, whilst Daniels tackles the themes of race and equality head on, they're ultimately pushed under by the film's greasy, fattening melodrama.
Is there a purposeful statement underneath all the trash talk and push-up bras, as we saw with his previous effort, 2009's Precious? No, not really. Is there a sense of irony from Daniels? Definitely not. Yet it seems lady luck is on the divisive American director's side - quite by accident, he may have just made a minor cult classic, supplemented further by several incredible performances from a starry cast. Ignore what the critics said within the heated bubble of Cannes - The Paperboy is more than worthy of your time and money, jellyfish and all.

text: | Dáil Éireann - Volume 654 - 15 May, 2008 Written Answers. - National Drugs Strategy. Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs if his attention has been drawn to the difficulties faced by grandparents who become the primary carer of their grandchildren as a result of their own child's drug addiction; and the steps he will take and the funding that will be made available to support these grandparents. [18862/08] Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív: As the Deputy will be aware, issues regarding the safety or welfare of children are a matter for my colleague, Mary Harney T.D., Minister for Health and Children. However, I am very aware that problem drug use has a devastating effect on families with grandparents, in some instances, taking on the parenting roles to their grandchildren. In this context, the Deputy should note that family support has been identified as a priority under the National Drugs Strategy and many drugs projects that are funded by my Department through the Local and Regional Drugs Task Force areas focus on family support issues. With regard to grandparents, the CUMAS project, which was approved €190,000 from my Department this year through the Clondalkin Local Drugs Task Force, provides support to parents, grandparents, siblings and children of drug users and to young drug users themselves. Of this funding, €30,000 focuses on providing child care, respite and family therapy costs for parents and grandparents living with addictions. 602 [602] Furthermore, €150,000 from my Department was approved for the Family Support Network in 2007 to facilitate improved links and partnerships between the families of problem drug users and others involved in the National Drugs Strategy. The Network has been involved on an ongoing basis in the active support of grandparents or extended family members who take on the role of caring for the children of drug users. In 2004 the Network published "Supporting Grandparents . . . Supporting Children" with funding from my Department. Finally, the Report of the Working Group on Drugs Rehabilitation, which was published last year, recognised that families of problem drug users have the potential to be a key element to the rehabilitative effort. The recommendations of that Report will be implemented as part of the Programme for Government. Dáil Éireann 654 Written Answers. National Drugs Strategy.

3 Stocks Under $10 to Trade for Breakouts
DELAFIELD, Wis. (Stockpickr) -- At Stockpickr, we track daily portfolios of stocks that are the biggest percentage gainers and the biggest percentage losers.
>>5 Stocks Set to Soar on Bullish Earnings
Stocks that are making large moves like these are favorites among short-term traders because they can jump into these names and try to capture some of that massive volatility. Stocks that are making big-percentage moves either up or down are usually in play because their sector is becoming attractive or they have a major fundamental catalyst such as a recent earnings release. Sometimes stocks making big moves have been hit with an analyst upgrade or an analyst downgrade.
Regardless of the reason behind it, when a stock makes a large-percentage move, it is often just the start of a new major trend -- a trend that can lead to huge profits. If you time your trade correctly, combining technical indicators with fundamental trends, discipline and sound money management, you will be well on your way to investment success.
>>5 Rocket Stocks Ready for Blastoff With that in mind, let's take a closer look at a several stocks under $10 that are making large moves to the upside. Magnegas Magnegas (MNGA), an alternative energy company, hydrogen based alternative fuel through the gasification of carbon-rich liquids in the U.S. and internationally. This stock closed up 8.3% to $1.55 in Tuesdays trading session. Tuesday's Range: $1.42-$1.6052-Week Range: $0.40-$2.45
Tuesday's Volume: 2.50 million
Three-Month Average Volume: 2.74 million From a technical perspective, MNGA ripped higher here right off some near-term support at $1.40 with decent upside volume. This spike higher on Tuesday is starting to push shares of MNGA within range of triggering a big breakout trade. That trade will hit if MNGA manages to take out Tuesday's high of $1.60 to some more near-term overhead resistance at $1.82 with high volume. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in MNGA as long as it's trending above some key near-term support levels at $1.40 or at $1.33 and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 2.74 million shares. If that breakout kicks off soon, then MNGA will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $2.40 to its 52-week high at $2.45.

Sell DEXO, Buy SPMD, Thank Shorts, Get 20%
The short covering is putting in a very strong bid for Dex One. I know because I was slamming it with blocks of shares yesterday as I scrambled to sell Dex One (DEXO) above $1.80 and rolled that cash directly into SuperMedia (SPMD) at less than $3.40.
Look at the merger ratio history below. If you note that a Dex One share converts to a new share at a ratio of 0.2 and a SuperMedia share converts at a ratio of 0.4386, the merger ratio should be 0.45599. When the chart below is above that value, you should sell DEXO and buy SPMD and when it is below that value you should buy DEXO and sell SPMD.
Right now, with a value of 0.556, you can get 21.95% more of the post merger company by selling Dex One and buying Supermedia.
Take the money and run! Thanks shorts!
Disclosure: I am long SPMD. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
Additional disclosure: I sold all of my Dex One and bought SuperMedia. I intend to sell back and forth between the two companies to maximize my future ownership of Dex Media.
ECRI - Growth To Peak For Global Industrial Sector
How is this not making headlines? The ECRI is an organnization that I've relied on to assist in figuring out what is going to happen. Anyone can tell you what has happened. People build entire careers and livlihoods telling you what has happened. I'll say that a little prescience is far more valuable than documenting the past. They're saying now that we are likely going to see a hit to the global industrial sector, led not by overspeculation, but from actual demand contraction.
The Implications - Who is Right?
Jim Chanos, Marc Faber, Ben Benanke, George Soros, Jeremy Grantham, Cullen Roche --- all are looking ridiculously intelligent. Jim's been calling for a China crash, and China's economy is mostly based on pouring concrete, building buildings people can't afford to live in, and hiding liabilities in off-balance-sheet entities if you ask him. Marc Faber's been shooting bullseyes from the hip for a few years now and he sees a hit to the industrial sector being followed by more quantitative easing and high inflation. Ben Bernanke has advised that we aren't seeing high inflation because we are simply seeing cyclical speculation in commodity prices. George Soros and Billionaire Carlos Slim reportedly got out of Gold and Silver at the top. Jeremy Grantham's calling the squeeze on the poor due to China's economic policy Cullen Roche went short into the madness as opposed into the fall when things were getting crazy at the top. Well Played.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average:
Well, if the growth peaks for the Global Industrial Sector, how can you possibly be bullish on the Dow Jones Industrial Average? The components of the Dow that I am the most worried about are: Bank Of America (NYSE:BAC), Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT), Exxon (NYSE:XOM), Alcoa (NYSE:AA) United Technologies (NYSE:UTX).
Commodities to Short:Copper, Aluminum, Nickel, Lead, Silver, Iron Ore --- all metals that I expect to see continued weakness in.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.
Reviewing Lee Enterprises Pro Forma Financial Statements
There's a website that tracks the bankruptcy proceedings of Lee Enterprises. Visit it here. I've been browsing and I came across some interesting financial pro forma projections all the way through 2015 and boy oh boy do they look good.
They've even gone as far as to lay out some FAQ about the Chapter 11.
Anyway, it's all pretty interesting but what matters to me? The pro forma financials. Let's talk about those. Here's a snapshot:
Plug it all together and you end up with some pretty strong cash flows.
Add back the amortization and depreciation to the net income and you're looking at a company that is over $70M of free cash for the next 4 years and comes at a valuation of less than $40M at current prices.
How much would you be willing to pay for a company that looks this good? If they are ever able to get a better credit rating their positive cash flows only increase. I think that this type of opportunity would be fairly attractive to a business entity with a better credit rating that might be able to join forces with Lee Enterprises, effectively improving the credit rating of Lee Enterprises and possibly augmenting these annual cash flows towards debt payments by another 40% or so.
Disclosure: I am long LEE.

Today would have been Fred Rogers' 85th birthday.
After reading a recent article on cracked.com (which you should read, but I'm about to lay a long article on you anyway), I, too, am convinced Fred Rogers is one of the Greatest Americans who ever lived. I cannot think of anyone else who brought such joy to not just children, but to people of all ages. As someone approaching their mid-30s, I'm at the tail end of a large group of people that had my childhood directly affected by him.
When I grew up, there was no cable TV, just six or so channels. I didn't have Nickelodeon, I just had PBS. Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers, then Reading Rainbow. That was my educational programming in my soft-headed years. Mr. Rogers was slow-paced, deliberate, and reinforcing. He was perfect.
These days, I don't know if the show would've survived much longer. PBS stopped running his show around 2008. Everything is too fast paced, too bright, too flashy. And Mr. Rogers tackled HUGE subjects with toddlers. Death. Divorce. Bullies. Anger. Enstilling self-confidence in yourself. Adults watching could've learned a thing or two from him as well. I know I still can.
Below, after the video, I've left a link and reprinted a long out-of-print article from a 1998 Esquire piece about Mr. Rogers. Take about ten to twenty minutes to read it. If anything, you'll realize what a great man he was and how much he meant to so many people.
I'll admit to you that haven't had the best year so far. But the video below helps me a great deal. Mr. Rogers recorded this shortly after his PBS run ended in August of 2001. He filmed this as a response to how adults should comfort their children after 9/11. In general, it is a message of hope. To me, this is restoring some self-confidence... and if you're feeling down, this might help you too. Heck, it's just nice to know someone likes you just the way you are.
I'm not a religious man anymore, but I can say this with certainty: If you believe in the second coming of Christ, or that he reincarnates himself every now and then and blends in with the masses to help change the world, then we have already experienced that grace with one Fred McFeely Rogers.

The unit's setup memory can be backed up over an Ethernet network on a user-selected server and later restored if an incident causes the memory to become corrupted. The backup capability is configured using the company's previously released SmartView networking utility, which also allows users to view the status of the jobs running in networked SmartPAC 2s from any computer via the Internet. Functions available to networked SmartPAC 2s include the ability of press operators to send text messages via pagers, mobile phones, and e-mail, and for firmware upgrades to be downloaded to the controller from a Wintriss Web site. Customers who want to create a paperless shop can purchase the Info Center option, which makes drawings, photos, and setup sheets available to networked SmartPAC 2s from the customer's server. |

It's my pleasure to introduce Michael Haubenwallner (haubi) who will join us as a new developer for the Gentoo/Alt:Prefix project. Michael has been a programmer since 1996 and uses Gentoo at work. He plays all kinds of musical instruments, although mostly guitar, and sings in a chorus. He is happily married, has two lovely children and lives in the mountains near Graz, Austria. The perfect man with the perfect life, it seems. And indeed, I ran a thorough background check on him (no vapier, not that kind) and couldn't find anything suspicious. Except... hold on... what's that Gentoo thing? ;o) Denis. -- email@example.com mailing list

If you lined up the crème de la crème of Japanese performance cars past and present, the R35 would come out on top in every test. It's the most supreme example of Nissan's engineering prowess, and the flag bearer for Japan at the elite end of supercar territory. It's as close to perfection as we've seen from any Japanese automaker. So how do you improve on perfection? That's the battle that Heasman Steering & Suspension have been fighting for the last three years. How do you take an R35 to even higher levels of performance?
Their working project is this menacing GT-R in our photos here. We spoke with Brad at Heasman Steering and Suspension to find out just what has gone into making this an even more potent track package for their customer.
"The owner bought the car from Nissan brand new in 2009, and never intended to go this far. He did a few simple things at first like exhaust, tune, discs and pads. Then he took it to Bathurst for the five-day Drive Bathurst event in 2009. The car went well and it was all downhill with mods from there."
Heasman's have extensive experience with race cars of all types, building and maintaining competitive cars from many codes of motorsport. They can handle anything from a basic track-focused wheel alignment all the way up to a complete race-ready overhaul of your suspension and steering setup for those who want the ultimate result.
"Back when we started, because the car was so new, there were no other GT-Rs to look at to see what others had tried or to see any problems people had experienced with products, etc. No-one had really modified theirs as much as this."
"Initially it was a bit of a daunting task trying to get one of the best handling cars in the world to handle better, but we put the Bilsteins in it, bigger sway bars, adjustable arms, played with the wheel alignment, and it responded very well to the mods."
It's easy to skip over the details when Brad says they "put the Bilsteins in it", but these are far from the regular shocks you would expect to see in an R35; they're Bilsten MDS (Modular Damping System) coilover shocks. Made from aluminium they reduce weight and improve cooling, each corner features an independent rebound and compression adjustable shaft, which is why you'll see two dials on the strut top below.
"We also added the front splitter, raised the rear wing up, modified the endplates on the wing and added the front canards. It made a good difference to the car at high speed. The owner was happy with how it felt, so now it's just a matter of getting the setup right for each track we go to and making sure we keep Miles happy with how the car feels."
Obviously Brad and the boys at Heasman Steering and Suspension are doing something right, because Miles has been clocking up records all over the place. "Last year it got the fastest ever time for a road-registered car around Bathurst. It did a 2:15:00 lap, and then drove all the way back to Sydney. It does a 1:13 around Sandown, which is the same as the rear end of the V8 Supercar field!"
Miles has also taken it on the new Sydney Motorsport Park 'Long Circuit' at Eastern Creek. It mustered an impressive 1:58, which will become more relevant as that full track is raced by more people over the next year. Brad says, "I have ridden as a passenger in it at Phillip Island and Sandown. It is like nothing else I have ever been in. The acceleration and grip is just a joke!"
Croydon Racing Development have been at the helm to push more power out of the GT-R. They've called upon some of Japan's finest aftermarket tuners (and a few from Australia) to get the R35 to where it is. Key to the epic output they've achieved is the HKS GT800 turbo kit, named for it's ability to produce 800hp from the VR38. The motor was torn down and upgraded with the necessary forged HKS internals. The included 95.5mm pistons are OEM replacements so they can be installed in the cylinders without modification to the plasma coated walls.
COBB software takes care of the tune, and an Aussie-made MoTeC digital dash looks after data logging. More Australian-made mods can be found in the engine bay with a high volume oil sump from Willall Racing in South Australia. The custom roll cage was also made and installed here in the land downunder.
You can't achieve the lap times of this GT-R without signifcant weight reduction. Carbon doors from Top Racing HK helped with that, as did the Top Secret carbon bonnet and custom HRE wheels. Wrapping those incredible wheels are Michelin slicks.
Despite stripping a good chunk of weight out of the car, a hefty brake setup had to be fitted to get the car pulling up properly. AP Racing 'J Hook' rotors and Carbotek XP 16 pads are about as good as it gets. Also fitted is a Willall Racing water spray brake cooling system.
"At the moment it's running 470awkW. If we go any higher with boost the gearbox starts slipping. Right now we're waiting on a HKS gearbox upgrade so we can turn the power up all the way! That's really all the plans for the future. The owner doesn't want to do any more to it, just keep it running and try to get a lot of track time in it next year."

WOW! Epic build, awesome photos, awesome article.
Very nice feature. Any videos of this thing at the track? If Heasman get to see this everyday, I want their job!
This car is sick! Props to Heasmans, hear good things of them.
After taking vehicles to Heasmanss now for 52 years for generally Bilsteins etc and their expertise…I have not had the money to spend on these radical upgrades however I have spent weeks if not months at their workshops.As a teenager time it was to have dual action conversions of knee action shocks in vehicles I'd properly "hotted-up" Buick straight 8′s Pontiacs, the full works…then after over 100 Yank cars I went European in 1966 and never looked back though I love some of the Buicks still….
The Japs have seriously taken over high performance with Italian and French machines and German suffering mergers and high prices. The iconic Porsche is no longer the top car nor is Ferrari,both need a significant driver to keep safe at speed. The SAAB of which
I have the most desirables of the 9000′s has come to an ignominious end though hopefully Sweden will keep being the parts manufacturers with China (groan) using the vehicle for electric systems.The 9000 2.3 Carlsson was a rare car with only 122 manufactured and only 25 inported to Australia. That and the aero are significantly fast cars with good looks and good handling and intrinsic shell safety still 17-22 years later.As usual mine go to Heasmans whhter shocks and springs are good or bad….I rely on them implicitely. The driver is of course the added factor…driving is a trade to learn and however skilled you are, the car relies on you as you rely on it…
Now to the Nissan.All mods cost cash and mods with no previous references means time and trackwork, maths and corroboration with say, Bilstein. Their Bilstein specialist travels to Germany for training updates. To be able to determine nuances in handling upgrades requires great skill.To improve the world's best suspension designed by possibley the geatest Japanese road car specialist of the last 20 years who are in the market against fast cars in a wealthy nation where respect is exhibited in the car one drives really takes some science. This is not making a holden beat a Porshe, this is the worlds to car being made to beat any other one of the same model.
In all the time I have known the owner of this business, since he was an apprentice, since the death of AJ he has worked in the pit…checking very car, driving every car, suspension tuning every car, dictating the final decisons.How many owners of a major business spend their days in the pit whilsy staff handle the cleaner work…?
I admire Doug as one of the best successful true business men in this country as well as absolutely competent and with an amazing resiliance and personality…and he deserves any and every accolade.This pklace would be a mile ahead if even 20% of the company executives had his management skill determination and methodical goal setting… inherent, learned and devised.
I drive from Qld to Sydney to have my cars done….I stop nowhere else for suspension work. Recently however I paid 150 to have two experts remove a frozen rear shock. One did nothing competent and wouldn't grind the collar (no tools…$75 for trying then off to the rego place…$75 to cut it off and put on my new shock.Ouch!!…with one end of the shock already unbolted!! They didn't notice at Rego check that the upper control arm bolts were so loose all the shims had fallen out…puzzling me about inconsistent steering in corners with new tyres and a full rego check …Heasman picked it up straight away.
The QA stops with Doug…no delegating even though Peter has spent his working life there as has Paul, he Bilstein scientist and both are more competent than pretty well anyone and could take Doug's place were he sick or away…. Brad…well we don't want to praise him too much or he'll take it easy floating on a cloud of 'is there more'?LOL!! but he'll end up a champion if he absorbs everything because no one could be in a better team to move forward, no one could have been born into such a well made busines structure and financial solidarity between the two aspects of Heasmans….supply and professional fitting…and of course science as with this Nissan.Like all Heaman's employees Brad has access to top cars and to own top cars within his permitted outlay and modify them. It's a life at Heasman's, not just a job.They work long hours and they know everything they do will be thoroughly checked by the Boss and that everything he has said to do, has been done.
By the time I was 24 I'd owned 125 running cars…I am now in my 60′s…call that 225…I rely utterly on one place only..Heasman's
I admit envy over those dial up shocks….Mmmmmm gimme some …gimme some!!
I should add that bolt-on suspension mods whilst definitely a plus and in Heasman's case you are buying applied science as your car is independantly checked measured and assessed but the untlimate in chassis tuning involves a next level of professional skills and experience, a library of knowledge in the professional head and reference to pereevious works and to a world wide racing/road expert as is Bilstein.
If you are serious…Heasmans gets as serious as you want and can afford when you want to go to the limit or to somem where along that track.However far you want to go with your car or truck Heamans have had massive experience designing and fitting mod's for Police, Ambulances over many decades and tested inumerable cars for manufacturers pre-market.
The fact that people still work there who have spent their entire working lives as increasingly specialists Doug, Paul, Peter, Little Al and now Brad is the next generation as did the workers, now passed on,when AJ was alive tells you if you have the professional experience in management I have had or anything like it that this is the peak of Suspension Speciality and Science and a top employer to boot.For me there is no other place…I tried a couple of the big-shot suspension mod factories decades ago…never again. Voila!

Face Value
Intriguing masks take center stage at Vacheron Constantin
It's not often that primitive art shows its face in the watch world. But Vacheron Constantin stood out from the packs of floral and sports-theme timepieces at the Swiss watch shows this year to debut Métiers d'Art Les Masques, the first in a series of three collections to celebrate the savage beauty of antique masks. Over the next three years, 75 limited-edition sets of four watches will be produced, with each watch featuring an exactingly reproduced version of a mask from the renowned Barbier-Mueller Museum in Geneva. The first set of four, which will retail for $389,200, caused a stir after its April debut, with one collector putting a 150 percent deposit down to ensure he would get one of the 25 sets produced this year.
"Our clients in general are people who collect art, whether it's paintings or antiques or cars or whatever," explains Julien Tornare, the firm's North American president, "and they see a perfect connection between watchmaking and fine art." New collections will be available in 2008 and 2009, and lists of potential purchasers are already forming.
Each watch features an exactingly reproduced version of a mask from the Barbier-Mueller Museum in Geneva.
The premier collection derives from masks that originated in Asia, Africa, North America and Oceania. To accurately miniaturize them, craftsmen studied 3-D computer models of each and set about re-creating every indentation, scratch and age spot present on the originals. The 18-karat yellow gold Chinese mask, for example, was given a patina with carefully oxidized copper, while the Alaskan mask got topped with strands of carbon fibers instead of horsehair. Yet for all their artistic cred, these watches aren't without function—an innovative handless movement with rotating wheels reveals the day, date, hour and minute at the perimeter of the watch. And, for a scholarly touch, poems by the celebrated French writer Michel Butor encircle each face in gold lettering visible only when the watch is tilted at a certain angle, adding a soupçon of mystery to these immensely collectible works.

''Grey's Anatomy'': The truth comes out
''This is not the lovey, happy Thanksgiving episode I thought it would be,'' my sister Meg announced halfway through Turkey Night's Grey's Anatomy, right when everything was crumbling down around Cristina and Burke, and I will quote her on that because I was thinking practically the same thing. This Grey's was almost a downer. Isn't this a gutsy show? I don't think anyone was expecting Meredith, Derek, Burke, Cristina, Izzie, George, bartender Joe, and the Chief to face off in a festive Turkey Bowl or anything as chintzily holiday-themed as that, but it would've been hard to guess that this week's Grey's the one we'd sit back to watch with bellies full of food and hearts full of love would turn out to be so unrelentingly grim. Kudos to Shonda Rhimes and the gang for their daring: They don't seem afraid of anything (not even of dragging down your holiday high), which helps keep the show compelling week in and week out. It wasn't warm, toasty Thanksgiving television, which I confess initially bummed me out. I like warm and toasty on Thanksgiving! But the episode played much better when my Thursday sentimentalism melted and I rewatched it on Friday.
Cristina took over the narration this week, indicating that the episode was gonna be all about her and Burke specifically their trying and slowly failing to keep Burke's bum hand a secret. Now that ''George knows,'' Cristina was convinced he was gonna tell the Chief, and she freaked out about it. I've been eager for this Burke and Cristina plot thread to resolve, and Sandra Oh's first big scene of the episode reminded me why. Cristina jogged over to Meredith's, where Meredith and Derek were doing crosswords instead of doing it, and made a half confession to Meredith, though she couldn't quite say what she had to say. There was a peculiar exchange at the end. ''Cristina, you don't jog,'' Meredith said. ''We don't jog.'' What does she mean? In previous seasons, we've seen them go jogging. Did she mean it like ''We don't jog...anymore''? Cristina replied, ''I jog sometimes...without you.'' That, I buy. This whole baffling exchange made me think again that the show hasn't done a great job of keeping Burke and especially Cristina integrated into the group so far this season. It feels like we've seen so little of her outside of her relationship with Burke. And it's to the point that it's harder to believe that she and Meredith are still best friends, or that Cristina, as a character, has got anything going on beyond her lifeless, joyless conspiracy-pact with Burke. (Of course Cristina and Burke aren't silly dancing in their living room anymore, either.)
So, I thought, onward! Bring Burke and Cristina's trickery to its finale. And the show, admirably, got us there in stomach-knotting fashion. Burke and Cristina spent much of the episode in stairwells or behind closed doors, hashing over who took who across the line, and when. It made me wish I had this season's first and second episodes on tape, so I could go back and find out who really started their scam. My sense is that they are equally culpable, which is what made this episode increasingly dramatic, because it was so difficult to pick a side.
Things got ratcheted up when George decided to bring in Burke's crosstown rival, Dr. Hahn (Brooke Smith), to do his father's heart surgery, and that made Cristina think he'd tell the Chief. Then the Chief called in Burke to tell him something big, only it was that he wanted Burke to take over for him so he could retire. Many twists and turns! And the doomed couple was temporarily clear. That got Cristina to thinking that they could keep up their ruse indefinitely which was the one far-fetched element of the evening. (She couldn't be that dumb.) Later Burke, bristling and eager to prove himself, rebuked her during a gory heart surgery. At the end of the night, Burke walked in to the Chief's office to confess, but Cristina was already there with a sorry look on her face. The theme of the night was betrayal, and she betrayed him. And this previously subpar subplot was suddenly riveting, both because it's so hard to know what to think and because the couple is now in such a queasy place. Did Cristina sing just because Burke embarrassed her in the surgery? Or did good conscience, or George, prevail? It is entertainingly tough to tell. Cristina got a lot more interesting on Thursday night; she's by far the hardest to read of any character on the show. The episode ended for these two again, nearly wordlessly when Cristina went home and Burke closed the bedroom door in her face. Cristina's final narration told us that there are some wounds and betrayals so profound that there's nothing to do...''but wait.'' Fade to black. That was a tantalizing note to end on. This episode delivered, but more than usual it promised exciting things for next week and beyond.
Before I leave Burke and Cristina behind, cheers to Isaiah Washington. My favorite moment of the night was when Burke was in the elevator with Derek, who'd just found out about Burke's ruse. ''I would've helped you if you told me,'' Derek said. Washington clenched the back part of his cheek, as if with an electrical pulse, and that was his only reaction. Nicely acted. (The clench looked especially detailed on my Mom and Dad's shiny HDTV; I almost missed it watching on a regular screen the next day.) I like Burke, and I especially liked the reserved cool Washington gave him this episode; I hope the actor stays on Grey's.
George was the other big mover and shaker on Turkey Night. So much of what he did in this episode bringing in a big-deal doc like Hahn to operate on his dad instead of Burke, getting curt with Callie and admitting he knew she slept with Mark, and coldly putting meddling Izzie in her place with a cruel remark about Denny was controversial, and sure to turn off many viewers. But I was behind him almost all the way. Why? First, his dad's dying. Second, he's right about Burke. And third, he didn't rat on Burke, either. I felt for him I really did in his first scene after the fun bit where Callie stormed in on Izzie and Meredith and pushed Meredith around because she was convinced it was Meredith who told George about her and Mark. Afterward, when Izzie went up to George, he asked, ''How's my dad?'' And poor guy Izzie ignored him and said, ''George, your ex is hardcore.'' Sometimes there is too much attention given to people sleeping with other people on this show, especially given that less fortunate people are dying all over the place.
Which brings us to Karev and Addison. Forget everything I just said. I'd kind of like it if these two got together. Particularly if Addison really is pregnant. Though I have some reservations, their attraction really has been nicely developed; the signs starting popping up many, many weeks ago. The scene tonight in which they made their first real goo-goo eyes was my second favorite of the episode. ''You're a decent guy, Alex,'' Addison said. ''I'd hate to see Sloan beat that out of you.'' And they gave each other an awkwardly long, achy look. Justin Chambers' amused face said, all at once, ''This is weird'' and ''This is awesome!'' He is continuing his run of general excellence. Kate Walsh (who looks especially beautiful in HD) nailed it too. It was a rare warm and toasty minute out of a not-so-warm-and-toasty Thanksgiving episode. (Also warm and toasty? When Meredith cutely dropped her head on Izzie's shoulder after Callie attacked.)
The last character I want to talk about is Hahn, played by Brooke Smith, who I've been following since she sang along to her car stereo in The Silence of the Lambs, and who looked awfully...hot on Thursday night, or at least better than she did stuffing her face with lo mein and M&Ms in what I thought was a demeaning role as Toni Collette's ''normal'' best friend in In Her Shoes. (How does this show make everyone look so good? Unlike many of you obsessed message boarders, I even approve of Meredith's hair.) Hahn, introduced last season as a rival to Burke, is mean and nasty; we should see more of her. And now it looks like she could be back for good if the Chief still wants her to replace Burke, whether it's because Burke is the new chief, or because Burke is out entirely. Do you like her? Should she be the next new regular?
And what else did you think about this episode? Is Burke finished? Should Cristina get punished? When Addison told the pregnant patient Janelle, ''Everyone has a father,'' and Mark piped in with ''Not if she didn't tell him,'' isn't that more foreshadowing that these two are expecting? Will Derek and Meredith's decision to get physical again work out this time? And did you have a happy Thanksgiving, America?

Luxembourg, December 3, 1999
Whoever the final buyer may be, the withdrawal of the minority shareholder from Holland Media Group will not have any effect on the management of the groups' television stations; the HMG family composed of the stations RTL4, RTL5 and Veronica, remains unchanged.
Additionally, HOLLAND MEDIA GROUP can continue to operate under the brandnames Veronica and The Young One.
Therefore, the decision taken by the VERENIGING VERONICA only impacts the shareholding structure of HOLLAND MEDIA GROUP and not its broadcasting activities.
CLT-UFA is Europe's largest radio and television group. With holdings in some forty radio stations and television channels -most of them leaders in their respective markets – RTL in France, RTL Television in Germany, RTL TVI in Belgium HMG in the Netherlands and UFA Sports in Europe. The group is also active in production and rights distribution.

- 1 cup(s) diced onion
- 1/4 water, divided
- 1 teaspoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup(s) liquid egg substitute, such as Egg Beaters
- 2 teaspoon(s) chopped fresh herbs, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
- 1/8 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1/8 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper
- 2 tablespoon(s) farmer's cheese, or reduced-fat ricotta
- Bring onion and 1/4 cup water to a boil in a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cover and cook until the onion is slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking until the water has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle in oil and stir until coated. Continue cooking, stirring often, until the onion is beginning to brown, 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Pour in egg substitute, reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking, stirring constantly with a heatproof rubber spatula, until the egg is starting to set, about 20 seconds. Continue cooking, lifting the edges so the uncooked egg will flow underneath, until mostly set, about 30 seconds more.
- Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle herbs, salt and pepper over the frittata. Spoon cheese on top. Lift up an edge of the frittata and drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon water under it. Cover and cook until the egg is completely set and the cheese is hot, about 2 minutes. Slide the frittata out of the pan using the spatula and serve.

2009 Pinot Noir, Carneros
100% Pinot Noir
100% Stanly Ranch (45% Merryvale Estate, 55% Silverado Premium Properties)
Carneros, Napa Valley
- Hand sorted
- 5 days cold soak
- Gently punched down and pumped over
- 20 days on the skins
- Bottled unfined and unfiltered
12 months in French oak (44% new)
14.3% by volume
November, 2010
The wine will improve for several years.
The grapes for this wine come from the historic Stanly Ranch, in the Napa area of Carneros. Now coming into full maturity, the vineyard was planted in 2001 with newly available clones that are transforming the quality and character of Carneros Pinot Noir into richer and darker wines. The grapes were handpicked and carefully sorted. The wine was aged for twelve months in French Oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered.
For most of the 2009 harvest in Napa Valley, things went smoothly. Early-ripening whites—Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc—and reds, namely Carneros Pinot Noir, were picked at optimal ripening levels, capping a summer of mild, steady weather. Cabernet Sauvignon enjoyed the same ideal growing conditions until October, when a pair of strong storms dumped enough rain to worry growers. Wineries that waited out the deluge faced a mixed bag, but those who picked before the storms, including us, are very excited about the young wines' overall quality and ripeness at slightly lower alcohol levels.
The Wine
Our Pinot Noir is bright ruby in color, and shows notes of cranberry orange marmalade, Bing cherry, candy cap mushrooms, vanilla bean and hibiscus tea on the nose. Silky tannins and a rich mouthfeel are balanced with crisp acidity and toasty oak for a long finish. The wine will improve for several years, and pairs well with roast salmon and any dish featuring wild mushrooms.

0May 22, '12 by nwnursingI verified yesterday (actually talked to someone) that it was 9-11. I don't know where on campus. I didn't verify the date, but we all seemed to agree it was the 5th.
I bet we get a letter in the next day or two as well. Until then, I would block that off on your calendar.Last edit by nwnursing on May 22, '12 : Reason: add info -
1May 22, '12 by newnurse2015Hi. I have been reading this thread for about a month. Thank you to all the encouragement it has given me. I too am hoping to get into nursing school this fall.
I just wanted to let you know I talked with ------- from PCC and the "INFORMATION SESSION" on June 5, 2012 from 9-11am is not mandatory. It is opened to all accepted and wait listed students. Mandatory meetings don't begin until September.Last edit by dianah on May 23, '12 : Reason: Terms of Service re: posting namesnwnursing likes this. -
0May 24, '12 by LilpokaCongrats on being DONE nwnursing! I think what you do next might depend on how well you feel after your interview. If you think it went well, clean the house and feel good about your surroundings...if it didn't go so well, sit and watch a bad movie because you won't really care how bad it is anyway, lol.
I am hoping it well! -
3May 24, '12 by SushiOConnorPHEW!!! Done with my CCC interview as well! nwnursing, hope yours was a positive experience too! I also managed to drop off my PCC seat verification today! It was worth the $50 for my peace of mind knowing they know I WANT that seat.
Since it's a nice day I just might try to pipe up a second zone on the sprinkler system, finish the dishes then splurge and make frozen pizza (with extra sauce and cheese and veggies of course!) -

Students Break "into" School
They say they were just looking for souvenirs. Evansville Police arrested two teenage boys accused of breaking into the old North High School building on Stringtown Saturday night. Officers responded to a burglar alarm, surrounded the building, and prepared to send dogs in. But before deploying a K-9 unit, police say 18-year-old Joseph Logsdon exited the building and then, a 17-year-old boy was found near the football field. They apparently got in through an unlocked window, and both were arrested for burglary. Police say Logsdon later told officers that he and the other suspect are students at the new North on Highway 41, and wanted to have something by which to remember the old school. Logsdon was taken to the Vanderburgh County Jail and the juvenile was returned to his parents.
