The Mesa Historical Museum will shutter its doors to the public early next year, leaving its building a warehouse for a vast collection of artifacts.
It could take years before money is available to open a facility that can welcome visitors on a regular basis, though museum officials vow they will keep history alive through traveling exhibits and other efforts.
The closure comes after the Mesa Historical Society boosted attendance at its museum with new exhibits, but it has lost city funding. The recession makes it tougher to get corporate donations, and the museum has always struggled at a Lehi location that's far off the beaten path.
"Everybody said, 'This is the worse imaginable place you can put a museum and expect it to survive,'" said Mesa City Councilman Dennis Kavanaugh, who is also a member of the museum advisory board.
But the museum will live on in some form.
Mesa is in talks to take ownership of the museum building and the collection from the Mesa Historical Society, which now owns everything. Mesa is struggling with its own budget problems and won't have money to keep the facility open for visitors.
The museum's volunteers and three employees will stay on to preserve and catalogue roughly 50,000 items, which will be available for research.
However, the historical society has plans that could make some exhibits more visible than they are today.
Play Ball: The Cactus League Experience exhibit will move to the Arizona Museum for Youth in downtown Mesa. That 2-year-old exhibit has proved the museum's most popular ever and is likely to be viewed even more at the other museum, said Vic Linoff, president of the historical society's board of directors.
The exhibit should move by February. It's the first exhibit anywhere dedicated to spring training, Linoff said, and tells the story of how Mesa is the birthplace of an institution that now includes many Arizona cities.
The Chicago Cubs get plenty of space there, as their Mesa spring training dates back to the 1950s. Visitors can even push a button to watch a video of famed announcer Harry Caray leading a stadium of fans to the song "Take Me Out to the Ballgame." Fans study every piece of the exhibit, Linoff said, and some visitors have offered to share their stories or donate artifacts from their attics.
"We have developed a body of knowledge about the Cactus League that just didn't exist anywhere," Linoff said.
The historical society hopes to eventually have a museum dedicated just to spring training, placing it either downtown or at a new training facility for the Cubs that the city is considering. It seems unlikely the museum would reopen at its current location, the former Lehi school, because of its remoteness and the cost of maintaining a building dating to 1914.
Other materials may end up in traveling exhibits in libraries, city buildings, other museums or perhaps even shopping malls. Already, Mesa's public libraries have some items from the popular exhibit on the "Wallace and Ladmo Show." Those traveling exhibits get more exposure than if they were at the museum, and may prove a good model to expose more history to the public.
While less of the museum's collection will be available to the public at any given time, what is available will get more exposure.
"I don't think the compromise is that bad given the history and reality of historic museums across the country," said Johann Zietsman, Mesa's Arts and Cultural Department director.
The museum's lack of financial success comes despite great leaps the historical society has made, Linoff said. For years, the museum focused on Mormon pioneers, and exhibits never changed. The museum created new exhibits to cover broader topics, and displays changed so visitors could expect to see something new if they returned.
"They have a fantastic collection," Zietsman said. "They've really done magnificent work in terms of an organization that's self-funded."
Mesa and the historical society are still in talks to work out all of the details of transferring ownership. The groups will see if it's possible to open the museum for some events or perhaps one day a week, Linoff said.
Even a closing date is uncertain. The historical society will run it as long as funds allow, Linoff said, adding that some fundraisers have kept the museum going longer than expected. But Linoff said there's no way the nonprofit society can raise enough money to go much longer.
Any new museum will have to present Mesa's history in a more contemporary and compelling way if it is to survive, Linoff said. Exhibits have to change and include more dramatic and interactive presentations to draw patrons in.
"Nobody wants to read the label," Linoff said. "This is the iPod generation. There has to be stuff going on."

Santana Beach Resort reviews

I was a business traveller attending a bussiness event at the Taj and selected to stay at Santana due to its more budget friendly rates and close proximity. Hence my 2 day stay was mainly centered around bed and breakfast and hardly had the time to experience anything else. However noticed that this is a very popular destination for european tourists on holiday. The staff at the Santana were very friendly. The rooms (actually small appartments) are very spacious and comfortable. On the downside I felt the continental breakfast which is included as a part of the B/B package to be somewaht poor and it seems to lack variety. Does not have much choice of restaurants though the hotel itself recommends some in the neighbourhood in its litterature. However a-la-carte ordering is possible. This apart could reccomend the hotel.

The more we hear about Ontamarama, the less like an inconsequential game for kids it sounds. We've already established that it has a challenging control scheme, but this rundown of the game's controls by Fanboy BFF Ludwig Kietzmann is the most detailed yet. Will we have the intelligence and dexterity required to manipulate the touch screen and the d-pad at the same time? Probably not? Will we enjoy trying and failing? Indubitably!
After posting all of these favorable impressions from friends and colleagues, we want to be able to post our own impressions! Even some of our commenters got in on the act last time, telling us about their experiences with the Japanese version of the game.

Editors' Top PicksSee All
Hefty isn't a word we often associate with portable audio players, not even high-capacity hard drive models. In that sense, DMC's Xclef HD-500 is definitely a throwback: the silver-and-black case dwarfs an iPod, while enclosing a 2.5-inch notebook hard drive. It reminds us of the earliest hard drive players, where the main attraction was the ability to pack massive amounts of audio for the road. The pudgy portable has 100GB of space (or 25,000 tracks), 40GB more than the largest iPod, and delivers it for considerably less cash ($450). It also has a built-in FM tuner, a voice recorder, a text file reader, and the ability to encode to MP3 from line-in or from the radio. The HD-500's look and feel is considerably less sophisticated than that of the latest hard drive players. But if you're less interested in a stylish audio player than in a huge portable hard drive that also plays tunes, then the 100GB HD-500 might be perfect for you. We mentioned that the DMC Xclef HD-500 feels like a throwback. While it's certainly smaller than the first hard drive MP3 player, the PJB-100 (from either Hango or Remote Solutions, depending on whether you bought the Korean or U.S. import version), or Creative's early
Nomad Jukebox
series, it's still bigger than anything we've tested in the past few years. The device measures 5.0 by 3.2 by 0.8 inches, weighs 9 ounces, and feels reasonably well constructed, though the buttons certainly feel cheap.
The big 160-by-105-pixel, seven-line LCD offers a ton of information, and fortunately is still readable through the scrapes in the vinyl window on the faux-leather belt holster. You can wear the player in the holster or in a sweatshirt pocket, but either way, you can definitely feel the weight; we'd probably put it in a backpack or leave it on a desk for extended use.
The HD-500's interface has a wealth of features, but it feels kludgey, especially with the player's awkward set of controls. A jog key sits high on the side of the unit next to the screen, while the rest of the buttons are located on the bottom half of the face of the device. Basic playback is controlled by a four-way button in the middle of the face that handles fast forward, rewind, play, and pause. Four more buttons bring up the menu, adjust the volume, and control recording and A-B loops. Only a pianist could love the layout of the buttons: the HD-500 requires two hands to operate it, as well as some practice before using both the jog key and the menu button to root through your audio collection and find the file you want.
The display is stuffed with information. Fortunately, the song title scrolls, otherwise you'd lose it amid the clutter on the screen. Said clutter includes the name of the next track to be played, the folder that the music is contained in, the length of the track, encoding information, and much more, including left- and right-channel level meters, complete with a vibrating speaker icon.
The player packs a couple of features we haven't seen on many (if any) other portable audio players. First off, it can read text files. However, since there's no way to bookmark the place you stopped reading in a file, this is of limited use for longer reads; say, that copy of Heart of Darkness you downloaded from The Gutenberg Project.

There were rumors of a convertible Nissan Murano making the rounds on Internet forums, blogs, and other less-than-reputable sources for years. I wrote them off as being about as likely as a four-wheel-drive Ferrari wagon. It turns out both these vehicular oddities made it to production in 2011. Is the automotive apocalypse nigh?
I don't appreciate much about the exterior of the Murano CrossCabriolet. I actually don't appreciate the exterior of this generation Murano, even with a traditional top and four doors. Much like the previous-generation Nissan Quest, the design is just a bit too Star Trek for my tastes. Converting the Murano to a softtop doesn't make it any more graceful, and the long doors can make parking in a crowded lot or garage much more difficult. At least with the top down it's easy to toss a bag into the rear seat.
Thankfully the Murano's interior is very attractive and well executed. There's a lot of noise that penetrates the soft top, so much so that I thought a window was down somewhere, but I suppose that's to be expected with a soft top. The leather seats are very nice to look at and provide enough support, but the heated steering wheel leaves a little to be desired. It seemed to stop pumping out heat after a few minutes of use even though the button remained lit. Maybe that was the Murano's way of telling me driving with the top down in 39-degree weather wasn't a good idea.
I really like the way Nissan has configured the human-machine interface in all of its interiors, it's never a chore to change radio stations, input a destination, or use your iPod through the infotainment system.
I agree with Joe Lorio about the most likely buyers coming from retirement villages in sunbelt states. Oddly enough, this car seems more like a replacement for a Lexus SC430 than an extension of the Nissan Murano line.

NTSB: Could take months to find cause of crash
Crews from the NTSB, FAA and Cessna spent their first full day investigating a deadly plane crash between Derby and Mulvane. Tom Latson is the investigator in charge from the NTSB, he says it will likely be months before we know what caused the crash.
"Our main purpose is just to document the facts. I don't really have an opinion here while I'm on the scene. I'm just documenting what I found," Latson said.
Latson and his crew have found debris scattered across a field near 95th St. S. & Webb. Most of the debris is near the "main impact crater" but one of the plane's wings was found nearly a mile away.
Investigators will continue to work the scene, but they're also looking into maintenance records for the Cessna plane, medical histories for the two men on board and Friday's Winter-like weather.
"At this very moment our NTSB meteorologist in Washington D.C. is already processing and doing a very thorough weather study for this accident," Latson said.
Latson wants to hear from anyone who saw or heard the crash. He urges witnesses to call the Sedgwick County Sheriff or email the NTSB at email@example.com.

PANAJI: The central government is gearing up to aid the resumption of mining activities in Goa. Speaking to STOI from Delhi, Union minister of state (independent charge) for mines, Dinsha Patel said, "We are trying to start mining in Goa as fast as possible. We are trying to start mining operations in Goa by October 2013."
On Friday, the Union ministries of mines, environment and forests (MoEF), and law held a meeting in Delhi to discuss Goa's mining scene. The meeting was called soon after Union finance minister P Chidambaram said the government will move the Supreme Court seeking relaxation in some of the orders passed earlier on iron ore. Chidambaram had said, "I think orders are already being relaxed in the case of Karnataka mines. I think some orders are expected in the Goa mines. The idea is to get iron ore mining back on its feet."
Sources said Friday's meeting discussed the modalities to resume mining in Goa. The mines and MoEF ministries have sought the law ministry's advice on intervening in the Goa case under way in the Supreme Court. "If necessary, separate affidavits will be filed by the mines ministry as well as MoEF in the apex court," said Patel.

(Boston) -- A new study from the American Journal of Public Heath shows that U.S. states with higher estimated rates of gun ownership experience a higher number of firearms-related homicides.
My Comments: Yeah right. Wonder who paid for this study of suspect data from the CDC? You be the judge. Expect more of this pho-research to come as the keepers of the Grants direct how studies are oriented. If you do not read or understand science peer reviewed journals or the current corruption in the peer review process, that might be lost on you.
....Regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between state levels of gun ownership and firearm homicide rates, while controlling for a range of potential state-level confounding variables, including: age, gender, race/ethnicity, urbanization, poverty, unemployment, income, education, divorce rate, alcohol use, violent crime rate, nonviolent crime rate, number of hunting licenses, age-adjusted non-firearm homicide rate, incarceration rate, and suicide rate.
....Siegel noted that the study did not determine causation, allowing that it is theoretically possible that people are more likely to purchase guns if they live in states with higher levels of firearm homicide. But he said the issue warrants further study. (My Comment: Yeah, the big disclaimer! But he still got his approved Grant Money to publish to the political intent of what the people that gave him money for wanted!)
Read this crap of an excuse for a study, when every other study out there points to the exact opposite: New research shows link between rates of gun ownership and homicides

winner. Venezuela is still in the throes of the PDVAL food scandal, with
putrid food being uncovered each day. Of interest is Ali Rodriguez
Araque's statements in recent days about the VZ electrical system. He
claims that the electric system is like a "patient with a feeding tube,
" because it is still alive but only just. He is claiming that 1300 of
5900 megawatts that were meant to be installed this year have already
been set up. Sounds a bit optimistic to me, but it's interesting that
he's coming out in defense of the gov't electric sector right after
Chavez removed all (deliberate) rationing.

The most interesting thing in my AOR today is the arrest of 20 farmers
(5 farmers were Brazilians) in Eastern Bolivia a day after the Bolivian
government announced that they were going to control its Eastern borders
more strongly. The farmers were accused of illegal occupation of land.
It illustrates Morales' objectives to control a region where his
popularity is low, drug trafficking is strong, and the presence of
Brazilian farmers is significant.

Aston Villa owner Randy Lerner backs manager Paul Lambert
Aston Villa owner Randy Lerner has backed manager Paul Lambert after a disastrous week for the club.
Villa, 17th in the Premier League, lost 2-1 at Millwall in the FA Cup after being knocked out of the Capital One Cup by League Two side Bradford City.
"In the time I've come to know Paul, what is clear is his strength of character and belief in his approach to football," said Lerner.
Villa are also on a run of six Premier League games without a victory.
Aston Villa's recent league run
- 15 December - Liverpool 1-3 Aston Villa
- 23 December - Chelsea 8-0 Aston Villa
- 26 December - Aston Villa 0-4 Tottenham
- 29 December - Aston Villa 0-3 Wigan
- 1 January - Swansea 2-2 Aston Villa
- 12 January - Aston Villa 0-1 Southampton
- 19 January - West Brom 2-2 Aston Villa
But Lerner added: "Fortunes can shift quickly in this game and a sense that one has it right can become grave doubt in a matter of a few games."
Lambert said he shared an encouraging phone call with Lerner after the defeat to Millwall and was told to "keep on fighting".
"We have an excellent relationship and talk all the time," said the Villa manager.
When asked if there was any chance he would quit, Lambert replied: "No. I can only do, or try to do my best.
"There's no chance I'd walk away from it.
"You have to fight like anything to get up. You pick yourself up - there's no point in lying down and accepting it.
"I've never had a run like this as a manager or been hit from pillar to post like this. It's an experience you take on board and you use it.
"You can't have everything going your way in your managerial career every single time. You have to take the rough with the smooth and when the rough comes you take it."
Villa, who face fellow strugglers Newcastle at Villa Park on Tuesday, are one point above the relegation zone and Lambert believes his side need six league wins from 15 games to stay in the top division.
Paul Lambert Aston Villa manager"Every game is going to have to be a cup final. We have to hold our nerve and fight for everything"
He insists Villa must "hold their nerve" for the scrap that lies ahead to retain top-flight status.
"Is the squad good enough to keep Villa up? Yes," said Lambert.
"The difference is Newcastle can go and buy and we can't, but that's fine, you have to go with it.
"You have to fight for everything. Every game is going to have to be a cup final. We have to hold our nerve and fight for everything."
Lerner, who has put more than £250m into the club in just over six years - including its purchase - is in regular contact with Lambert, 43, about possible transfers during the transfer window.
But Lerner has told him the amount of money available to buy players is limited.
"We need a few in," added Lambert. "I'm not going to say 'we need four or five' because people will have a perception of what they think. I know in my own head.
"We brought in some lads in the summer. I knew the club had to rebuild. Randy wanted us to rebuild it and I knew that. We have brought in seven players."

29th January 2013 - 11:07It's difficult, Lambert has been given a tough task and the squad he inherited is poor.
Lerner bought him in to rebuild the club and he has to give him the time to do that.

29th January 2013 - 10:54If I remember, PL joined Norwich when they were not playing well and on the back of a thrashing by his then team Colchester (which he managed rather well). The players did it OK but it was Lambert who motivated and managed the team and many Norwich supporters were sad to see him go. He's a good manager, his football pedigree stands up to scritiny and Villa should give him time. He needs it badly.
Comment number 195.
29th January 2013 - 10:05Oi, Lambert, play with Bent AND Benteke up front!
It will work. Somehow.
If Villa don't do that, they are down. -
Comment number 194.
29th January 2013 - 8:email@example.com - How can you say 'the players did it for Norwich'. You could say that about any team. PL recruited those players on a budget. The Premier is ruthless when it comes to managers. Nobody is given time now. PL has played at the highest level through his career and won a champions league final with an assist and will no doubt be a great manager in time, just more than likely not with AV.
Comment number 193.
29th January 2013 - 7:56RL has to say he supports Lambert doesn't he? But that doesn't mean a thing, he'll be gone as soon as a replacement is lined up.
In retrospect it was the players that did it for Norwich not the manager. Villa made a big mistake, now they have to gamble on keeping him or finding another at such a vital point.
If the other relegation candidates step up their game then it's down for villa.

Mother Monster explained she was "sort of thinking that VOL.1 should have all the commercials songs, and then save the experimental meterial. but to be honest even the experimental stuff is catchy.VOL.1 is a bit more modern." Gaga also gave some clues as to the fate of "Princess Die": "I don't think Princess Die will make the cut, but I wrote another version of princess die that is uptempo…totally diffrent song. Princess Die isn't as good as all the other songs I wrote."
The singer also spoke about her growing infatuation with hip-hop (this year she has released a trap rap and collaborated with Kendrick Lamar and Azealia Banks): "[One song] is a hip-hop/j-pop/pop song. And it's not hip-hop in the way you know, it's more underground chicago gay club trap and it's very diffrent from Azealia Banks music because she's more 90′s house."
Underground hip-hop, J-pop, experimental music, a "Telephone" sequel…apparently this album will have everything but jazz. But that's probably because she's dedicating an entirely separate album to that genre, too.
[via Gaga Daily]

We have 3 knock-out roses in the middle of a boxwood hedge. (see photo) My wife has fought blackspot fungus for years and is ready to give up and pull them out. Someone suggested that the reason this supposed resistant plant is so plagued is because of the surrounding hedge. (The Japanese Beetles also drive us crazy but they have been worse on the okra this year and really really loved the edamame plants last year.) My request is for suggestions for another colorful plant to place in the middle of this boxwood ellipse. We love the multiple colorful blooms of the knock-out roses but they are far from being carefree. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Could you take a close-up pic of the leaves in question? We sometimes have gardeners who think they have incurable BS when in actuality it is a different kind of fungus. A close-up can help us diagnose the problem for sure. My opinion is that if Knock Out is hopeless there, there is no rose that is more carefree. I assume that spot is getting at least 6 hours of sun and getting enough water also--or those could be problems. How old are those KOs? My neighbor's KO was more like 5-6 feet tall and 4 ft wide when it was in her garden about 3 years. Kate |
KO roses in Asheville get cercospora spot, which is probably what you are seeing. In some seasons the foliage gets ratty looking by this time of the year or later, and infected leaves may eventually die. However, compared to blackspot, it doesn't do any great harm. You can safely ignore it. |
How about the Red (Homerun) rose...? Wonder how that rose performs in NC? |
Thank you for the prompt replies. Well, actually they do not look too bad now. : ) The leaves turn black near the bottom. The plants are not very big because she has cut them back over the years because they would get so "sick" appearing. They have been in place for nearly seven years. In the past she has drenched with the Bayer rose multi-symptom product. I may have to wait until they look bad and then post again. |
Mike of whyy you bet your garden would say it is caused by the wood mulch. He would instruction to rake it and use yard waste compost and another mulch like pine straw. WHYY you bet your garden questions a thru Z .roses |
It could be an airflow problem. A Canadian explorer would do well. cape diamond or Champlain. |
This post was edited by sam4949 on Sun, Aug 10, 14 at 2:43
Scorching of the edges looks like it might be from over-fertilizing. There is fertilizer in the Bayer drench, so adding anything else could be harmful. If there are excessive fertilizer salts in the soil, flooding with 2" of water will leach them out. I would need a sharper closeup to diagnose the fungus. Cutting the plants back repeatedly during the season will weaken them. Nobody here recommends the Bayer combo drench. It contains cheap fertilizer and an insecticide that is not needed and possibly harmful. The fungicide is less effective than if it were sprayed on. I am not sure whether that fungicide controls cercospora--I think it does not-- but it is very effective against blackspot when sprayed. The spray concentrate is Bayer Advanced Disease Control for Roses, Flowers, and Shrubs. For cercospora you might try Soap Shield (copper). |
Vetlor, your landscaping is lovely. I'd like to see more photos of your property. The burgundy foliage of the Knock-out looks very nice with the green hedge. Unfortunately you've not had much success with Knock-outs in that location so perhaps another shrub with purple/burgundy foliage would be best. There's a short crape myrtle with dark foliage that might work, sorry I don't remember the name, it was advertised in Southern Living magazine and I also saw it at Lowe's this summer. Good luck. |

In my humble opinion as a gardener, I believe that you are asking too much of the roses. The first photo clearly reveals an initial planting designed to be evergreen with minimal care, and once established to require minimal water. That is not the environment roses prefer (even KnockOuts) - they do best with regular water and little root competition. The boxwood roots are champion competitors. I would look for a more appropriate site for the roses or just remove them entirely. And I would instead install something of the "hardscape" persuasion in that spot. It would be excellent for some folly - a tasteful sculpture, piece of outdoor art, bird houses, etc. If this isn't within your budget or to your liking, then I recommend looking for plants that have survival requirements similar to box. This would mean that in terms of the desire for another colorful plant that colorful foliage be considered. A variegated plant, for example, that would do well there is almost certain to exist. Or one with burgundy leaves as the post above suggests. Good luck. |
I personally think that if you do the following (as others above have pointed out) that in a year you too will have easy-care Knock Outs growing there. 1. Quit pruning the poor things. I see lots of good healthy (red) growth on your KOs. With regular watering, they will probably start blooming beautifully in a couple weeks. And remember most roses have bloom cycles followed by rest cycles--so don't panic and think something is wrong when the bush goes into "Rest" phase--which might last several weeks. Whatever you do, quit fussing over the poor things and give them a chance to do their own thing on their own steam. Just don't forget to water. OK? : ) Kate |
Kate nails it. |

Aliso Viejo Auto Center's ASE-certified technicians facilitate smooth and trouble-free driving in all makes and models—including Prius hybrids—with a range of maintenance and repairs. Led by a 20-year veteran technician, deft mechanics install quality parts, perform electronic repairs, send email upkeep reminders to car owners, and administer certified smog tests to make sure cars aren't emitting excess pollution or grandiose promises of everlasting motion. The dependable technicians back every repair with a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty and offer a free 30-point inspection with every service. Customers who live or work in a 5-mile radius of the shop can hitch a ride on the shop's free shuttle while their car is being serviced.
The ASE-certified technicians at Diversified Automotive keep cars and trucks running smoothly and passengers safe inside them. Headed up by a Mitsubishi Master Technician, the team takes on repair and maintenance services for a whole slew of makes and models, including Chevrolets from the United States, BMWs from Germany, and Suzukis from the distant future. In addition to specialty services that range from routine oil changes and tune-ups to major engine repairs and even replacement, the shop also keeps tabs on car emissions as a certified smog check facility.
Harry, the owner of Master Mechanix Automotive, has spent the last 40 years in the automotive-repair industry. In 1988, he opened his own shop, where he and his staff of ASE-certified master technicians have been welcoming cars ever since. This experienced team holds certifications in advanced engine-performance diagnostics, computerized engine controls, and electronic fuel injection, though they complete all automotive tasks—from oil changes to brake services—with deft mechanical skill. As a licensed Gold Shield smog-check station, Master Mechanix Automotive is also qualified to test vehicles' emissions.
Regardless of what logo brands your vehicle, A1 Automotive's ASE-certified technicians will welcome the ride into their full-service maintenance and repair shop and provide fast, quality service. They perform an array of automotive services, from brake repairs and oil changes to engine diagnostics and tuneups. Techs even service the battery, which is one of the most important parts of the car alongside that cashmere steering-wheel cover.
The highly trained technicians at Jiffy Lube tend to about 24 million customers each year with services such as the Signature Service Oil Change package, which promotes the longevity of each vehicle. Staffers acknowledge that oil plays a crucial role in maximizing the lifespan of each car?it cools the motor and prevents moving parts from deteriorating. More than 20,000 technicians who have completed an extensive training program certified by the National Institute Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) nurse vehicles at Jiffy Lube.
In addition to performing oil changes, Jiffy Lube's savants perform air-filtration, electricity, and windshield services, among others. The technicians' quality pledge includes a commitment to transparency, which stipulates that they will inform car owners of any necessary services, only complete a service after it has been approved, and refuse to replace windshields with saran wrap.
Randy's Automotive & Transmission's ASE-certified technicians tend to all sorts of automotive issues. For 35 years, the crew has been rebuilding and repairing engines and transmissions, and taking care of all the other essentials, including oil changes, brake repairs, and A/C servicing.
While the technicians work on their cars, customers can relax in Randy's air-conditioned waiting lounge or watch the repair process and learn what the technicians are doing to their vehicle. Those who don't want to stick around can take advantage of the shuttle to get to work, their house, or their limo driver's house.

Want to see what this recipe costs at different supermarkets? Compare in one place here:
- Put the milk and cream in a saucepan. Slit the vanilla pod down its length with a small, sharp knife and scoop out as many of the tiny black seeds as you can into the milk mixture. Add the pod to the pan, too. Heat the whole lot over a low heat, stirring occasionally, until it almost boils – you'll see a few bubbles at the edge. Take off the heat and set aside for 30 mins so that the vanilla can infuse.
- Mix the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl. Gradually pour the milk over the egg mixture, whisking continuously until combined. Pour everything back into the cleaned pan, return to a low heat and cook for 8-10 mins, stirring all the time with a wooden spoon, until the custard is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon. Make sure it doesn't boil or you will end up with scrambled eggs.
- Pour the custard through a fine sieve into a bowl, then sit it in a bigger bowl, one-third full of ice and water, to cool it down – keep stirring every now and then to stop a skin forming. Chill to make sure it is completely cold, putting cling film directly on the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.
- Pour the custard into an ice-cream machine. Churn following manufacturers' instructions until frozen, then spoon into a metal or plastic freezer-proof container. Cover and freeze until solid. If you don't have an ice-cream machine, pour the custard into the container and freeze. Every 2-3 hrs, take the mixture out of the freezer and give it a stir. Once it is softly set, beat it well with electric beaters, then freeze solid. It will keep in the freezer for 3 months. Remove from the freezer 15 mins before serving to allow it to get soft enough to scoop.

Comments, questions and tips
To stop your ice cream going rock solid after churning in the ice cream maker, all you have to do is add a tbsp or 2 of alcohol - such as rum, or vodka (it acts as an antifreeze - and gives the icecream a perfect texture) You won't be able to taste the alcohol - if you are making a lage quantity (like in this recipe.) I often find that a coffee liquor like Tia Maria works well with Vanilla ice cream - as it compliments the vanilla flavour, masking any alcohol taste.
So just add near the end of the churning process, and let the ice cream machine do the mixing for you!
I made the vanilla version - flavour was absolutely sublime.
I don't have an ice-cream machine so I kept taking it out of the freezer and beating it but I still ended up with quite a chunky texture.
(I'm not sure if I left it too long before the first beating or should have kept on doing it after the 3rd go?)
The only thing I would say is that you do need quite a lot of spare time to do it as you have to allow time for the milk infusion & cooling of the custard too.
