May 1, 2008 — EVANSTON, ILL. — Folks who go wild whenever the Northwestern University 'Wildcat' Marching Band strikes up a fancy drum line cadence between plays or makes precision forms during halftime at Ryan Field finally have something to satisfy their NUMB desires. Push On!, the latest installment in a series of recordings featuring the Wildcat Band, is now available.
The new album features twenty tracks of favorite halftime shows, stands tunes, the famous NUMB pre-game entry sequence, and of course Northwestern fight songs "Go 'U' Northwestern" and "Rise, Northwestern." The common moniker for the second tune, "Push On!," provides the title for the new release, which was recorded by the band during special sessions in Pick-Staiger Concert Hall.
Director of Athletic Bands Mr. Dan Farris conducted the band in their recorded performance, and doctoral conducting student Travis Cross (GMu06) produced the recording. Charles B. Hawes (Mu67, GMu 70, G77) was the project's engineer.
Farris said, "We're very happy and excited to have the CD out and appreciative of the support the NUMBALUMS have given the project."
The band's newest CD is funded by the NUMBALUMS, the official alumni organization of the Northwestern Bands. This is the third album sponsored by the NUMBALUMS, with the first being Contemporaries, featuring the Symphonic Wind Ensemble led by Dr. Mallory Thompson (Mu79, GMu80). The second was Hail to Purple, a 50-year retrospective of the music of the Northwestern University Marching Band that has sold more than 1,500 copies.
Push On! sells for $15 and is available in the Norris University Bookstore and can be purchased online here. The Wildcat Band's previous album, Hail to Purple, is also available online for $16. Online orders are processed by the NUMBALUMS and require an additional $5 shipping fee.
September 15, 2014 — EVANSTON, ILL. — Evanston residents of all ages are invited to celebrate the back to school season during 'Kits, 'Cats and Kids Week. There will be a big Block party on Thu., Sept. 18 and the week culminates with a Big Ten football game at Ryan Field. The Northwestern University "Wildcat" Marching Band and Evanston Township High School Marching Band will be featured performers.Read more...

The Patriots had another commanding performance in defeating the Buffalo Bills 34-3. This victory was the 15th in a row against the Bills.
The Patriots did not start the game on a positive note on defense. However, as in many games this year, the Pats offense gave the defense a good lead to make their adjustments and improved as the game went along. By half-time the Patriots were up 24-3. As a result, the second half was more about the defense taking advantages of the Bills mistakes. Overall, this was a 60 minute dominating performance by the Patriots.   Â
So what did we learn from watching the game on Sunday?
The first thing we learned is the defense is continuing to make big plays when they need to. At times early on the defense looked vulnerable, especially against the run. However, when the Bills were deep into Patriots territory, it seemed the Pats defense would step up and make the play to stop the Bills drives.
The second thing we learned is how valuable the Patriots running game can be as it continues to improve. When you run for 217 yards a team can completely control the game. The Patriots took advantage of a very weak Bills defense against the run.Â
The third thing we learned is that numbers can be very deceiving sometimes regarding Tom Brady. If you look at his statistics you might think Brady had a bad game. He was just 15-of-27 for 140 yards, but he threw 3 touchdowns. When the opportunities came, Brady took advantage of Bills mistakes and made them pay. Yesterday's performance was more about his leadership skills rather than his overall statistics. Yesterday showed me more of why he should be the MVP of the NFL this season.
The Bills going into the game had won 4 out of their last 6 games and had really improved over the course of the season. Instead the Patriots just showed the Bills how far they have come since their first match-up at Gillette Stadium earlier in the year and never gave them a shot at winning this one.
On offense, the Bills came out running the ball very effectively against the Patriots. Fred Jackson found huge holes to run through, and made the Patriots pay early on. He had 81 yards on 13 attempts. The shocking thing about the Bills offensively is after their first drive, they went away from the run and started throwing the ball. This was a huge mistake. As the game went on the Patriots did make adjustments and were able to control the Bills running game in the second half. I will never understand why the Bills did not run the ball more.
Ryan Fitzpatrick had a rough day in the passing game. He was 18-of-37 for 251 yards and 3 interceptions. His turnovers really changed the game as the Patriots took advantage of each of his mistakes. He has that gunslinger mentality that can be exciting but can lead to trouble. Â
On defense, the Bills were horrible at stopping the run. This was the Achilles heel of this unit on Sunday. The Patriots had complete control of the game with their ability to run the ball. The Bills did a decent job in the passing game, but if you can't stop the run you are going to have a hard time winning games.
For the Patriots, on offense it was about Brady being in command of his unit, and the Pats being able to run the ball at will. BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran for 104 yards and Danny Woodhead ran for 93 yards.  This was a balanced performance from the offense.
On defense, the Pats did have a hard time stopping the run. Players being out of action for this game were likely the biggest factor in the run defense. However, they will need to do a better job against the run in the playoffs and I expect as they get healthy we'll see an improvement there.
The defense was again making big plays with turnovers. The young defense is continuing to play fast and aggressively. This unit is continuing to show improvement.
The most important thing we learned on Sunday is that the Patriots can defeat a club they should beat on the road. Now, they are in the best possible position they can be with home-field throughout the playoffs with a first round bye, and a number one seed.  Â
As I always do, I like to look back at my keys to victory to see what kind of role they played in the game. Below is my analysis of " My Five Keys To Victory For the Patriots Against The Bills."
1. Ryan Wendell or Quinn Ojinnaka need to protect Tom Brady in the place of Dan Connolly at guard.  Wendell  was given the assignment to replace Connolly at guard. He did his job on Sunday as Brady was only sacked once, and had plenty of time to throw the ball.
2. The Patriots need to run the ball and control the game.  Well, the Patriots certainly succeeded in this key. They ran for 217 yards and had no problem moving the ball on the ground. The running game was vital Sunday.
3. The Patriots need to contain Fred Jackson.  The Patriots did a poor job against Jackson in the opening drive. However, for some reason the Bills went away from him after that possession. Later in the game the Patriots did a much better job in containing him, and the Patriots are lucky he was not featured more earlier in the game.
4. The Patriots need to win the turnover battle. The Bills had a total of 7 turnovers. There is no question that this key was very important in this game as the Patriots capitalized on the Bills mistakes.
 5. Shayne Graham needs to be very solid in the kicking game. Graham did a decent job on Sunday with his kick-offs. The Bills a few times got beyond the 30 to start possessions, but it did not really hurt the Patriots. Also, he was 100% in extra points and 2-2 in field goals, and was solid on Sunday for the Patriots.
So what did we learn from this game? I think we saw a team maturing and taking care of business when it needed to. Their reward for this victory is home-field throughout the playoffs. For a young team their progress is quite amazing. They are now in position to possibly do something special. What more can you ask for as a fan of the New England Patriots?
What are your reactions to the game? Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you thought of New England's 34-3 victory against the Bills.

Tooti and Charlie Congdon
Tooti met Charlie at a pool party in 1990, when she was dating another guy.
The pool: Charlie noticed me playing pool volleyball in what he called my bumblebee bathing suit. It was yellow and black. I saw him a week later at a pub, where my date had taken me for dinner. But as soon as we arrived, the date left my side for the entire evening. This hurt my feelings.
The gentleman: I didn't have transportation, so I stayed at the table and pretended I was fine. Charlie could tell the guy wasn't really interested in me, and, being a gentleman, came over and asked if I wanted something to eat. I said OK. We talked about family, love and friendships. Charlie picked up the tab.
The pickup line: The next day I went to the pool, and there was Charlie. He said, "Hi, gorgeous. How are you today?" Of course I'm thinking we had a great chat last evening, but this seems like a pickup line. After several hours of chit-chat, Charlie asked me out to dinner. From the night of our first date, we spent as much time together as possible. We knew we had found our true soul mates.
The accident: In March 1991, we were involved in a serious car accident. I was sent via helicopter to a trauma center, where they worked to save my life. Charlie was less severely injured and promised my mom he would take care of me. After several months and numerous surgeries, I was able to return to work. One afternoon, Charlie asked me to marry him. Of course I said yes. The wedding was October 25, 1991.

Balfour Beatty Plc Wins Thames Water Contract with Skanska AB and MWH Global for GBP 1.5 Billion
Balfour Beatty Plc announced that its joint venture with Skanska AB and MWH Global, SMB, has secured a seven-year contract with Thames Water which will help to ensure the resilience of the water infrastructure in London and the South for future generations. The contract is worth GBP 1 billion to GBP 1.5 billion to the joint venture, shared equally between the three partners. It will begin in May 2013 with the 23-month Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) phase, in preparation for the delivery of the sixth Asset Management Plan (AMP). Running from April 2015 to March 2020, AMP6 involves the design and construction of the water infrastructure network including replacing pipes, pumping stations and water treatment works. SMB will be providing design-and-build solutions as part of Thames Water's 'super-alliance' of industry organizations in a move that reflects Thames Water's decision to confirm its partners two years before the following five-year regulatory period, transforming the way it delivers capital investment.

When I was invited to a dinner hosted by Chef Jean-François Piège, he described how his previous elaborate style of cooking at the Hôtel de Crillon had evolved into something a lot more simple and homely at his current restaurant in the Hôtel Thoumieux. He told an amusing story of how his wife wanted duck à l'orange for Sunday supper and all he could find at his local corner shop was Orangina, so he used it to make a sauce for the duck. I'm not sure exactly how he made his canard à l'Orangina, but here's my version. A simple watercress or wild arugula salad works well with this dish.
Mix together the orange zest and juice with the olive oil, cumin, and salt.
Rub the marinade over the duck legs and leave to marinate for a minimum of an hour (or in the fridge overnight).
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Put the duck legs with the marinade into a roasting pan and cook for 1 hour or until tender. Halfway through cooking, baste the duck with some of the pan juices.
Fifteen minutes before serving, pour the orange soda and Cointreau into a large frying pan, place on a high heat, and simmer until reduced by half. Stir in the salt and vinegar before adding the orange segments. Simmer for another 5 minutes.
Serve the duck legs hot, with the orange segments and sauce.

Fun little recipe. I made this more into a main dish by adding beans and some chopped Boca burgers. Husband was a bit unsure about this but I probably should've served with sour cream (which I forgot about) and salsa. It is rather filling and I think would also be a good base for a taco salad. Thanks for the recipe!
delish, quick and easy. was a hit with the crowd :)

One afternoon I was invited to share my experiences as a woman in Christian leadership — the challenges, joys, issues, struggles and blessings. It felt like those of us sharing were instant, intimate, connected soul sisters. Without knowing each other, and as different as our stories were, the common threads ran deep. We were all women in high levels of leadership in Christian organizations. So why does it still hurt so much? We've made so much progress, haven't we?
After some questions, we reviewed what we would each share from our different perspectives. This would be a heartfelt, sincere, and vulnerable time of sharing. But I wasn't quite prepared for what happened. The opening question was, "When did you first experience a challenge or issue with your leadership as a woman?" As the first woman began her story, the vulnerable places of her past and present began to flow through tears streaming down her face. And my own eyes welled up and brimmed over. This struck home to the core of my own experience. This is hard. It hurts.
Here are just a few of the barriers we shared about that afternoon. There's the way that women are looked at differently with respect to their leadership styles. What is seen as strength in a man's style may be critiqued as aggressive in a woman. When a man's ego affects his decision-making, rarely is it confronted or dealt with, whereas a woman is called out for letting her emotions get in the way. This feeds the fear for many women leaders that it's not OK to display any vulnerability. As much as we don't want to admit it, there is also still a bit of a "good ole boy" way of operating even in Christian organizations that are advocates of reconciliation. To call it out can get one the blame of having a "chip on one's shoulder" and playing the gender card for personal gain.
My difference catches me off-guard. Entering into new situations, I'm just being myself — not suspecting anything, doing the things that I do — when an odd, slightly off comment, a stray remark makes me realize that the person across from me is not interacting with me. Instead, they are interacting with a perception of who they think people like me are: Asian, woman.
And usually that perception does not include "leader."
I'm different sounding. I'm different looking. I'm different leading.
As a leader, one question has helped me try to stay in my sweet spot and stick to my true voice, even when it's different from those around me. What is the unique joy that I bring to God's heart? When I feel the blister forming from too many frictional interactions, it's this question that takes me back to my center.
Embracing the differences God gave me to steward, to shelter in my body, I continue on, knowing that perhaps for someone, somewhere, this will be a good fit.
"Mom," I asked, "why didn't the ERA pass?"
It was 1982 and I was 13 years old — an age with sharp awareness of what is fair, but with no understanding of the forces aligned to thwart history's progress. I was unaware of the storm swirling around the Equal Rights Amendment. I was only aware of my mother's belief that it should pass.
I wasn't an evangelical, yet – or even a churchgoer. I was simply a girl standing at the precipice of womanhood in a household led by a strong woman who cranked up the car radio whenever Helen Reddy's "I Am Woman" or Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" piped through station-wagon speakers.
We are woman! We are strong! We are invincible. We are survivors and we roar!
So, I had no idea that Phyllis Schlafly (a conservative Catholic) and a broad contingent of evangelicals were actively campaigning against the simple amendment that required ratification that year.
The ERA was intentionally simple. Like the 19th Amendment, the heart of the amendment was one sentence long: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied, abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex."
Seemed simple enough. It was fair. Anything less would be unfair. So how could anyone stand against it?
As a preacher and pastor, I have had the privilege of speaking to people from a wide variety of demographics. Especially since I am a woman of color, these opportunities have made me acutely aware of how the silencing of women's voices — whether imposed upon or by our own choice — has so severely hindered the imagination of men and women in our society.
Time and time again, I've heard from young women that I am the first Asian female preacher they've ever heard and/or seen. And this absence has a cost. In the stark absence of a woman's regular presence in the pulpit across the landscape of church life and formation, we are allowing our young women (and men) to walk through this world with veiled eyes and muted ears, incapable of seeing and imagining possibilities for themselves and others.
While we may acknowledge that men and women are equal, I believe there is power in who speaks.
Black Future Month, a term coined by the new black vanguard, seeks to build upon the robust legacy of our foreparents while refusing to nostalgically rest upon their laurels. Black Future Month affirms our collective history of struggle, resilience, and achievement, while centering our present predicament in all its urgency. As this movement progresses, it'll be imperative that we retain the spiritual foundation which anchored the freedom fighting of our ancestors,' but this retention cannot come at the expense of passing the baton off to emerging leadership. We must go forward together, acknowledging that we need the collective wisdom of our people to navigate the troubled waters that surround us on all sides.
Black Future Month emerges from the #BlackLivesMater movement and the awareness that we're in the midst of a watershed moment. There are currently "more African-American adults under correctional control, in prison or jail, on probation or parole, than were enslaved in 1850, a decade before the Civil War." Black people currently constitute 12 percent of our nation's populace, yet represent 40 percent of the nation's incarcerated population. It's estimated that 1 in every 3 black males will serve time in jail or prison in their lifetime and that 1 in 13 black people cannot vote due to felon disenfranchisement. As bleak as these realities are, mass incarceration is just a portion of the burden we're bearing.
Revolutionary LoveRevolutionary love has given birth to new life.We are gasping, breathing (I can't breathe)Screaming (We have nothing to lose but our chains)We have been in the womb long enoughBlinking to the blinding light of the revolutionOur eyes adjustingAnd we answer with what love looks like in publicJustice
I've been thinking about the life birthed out of revolutionary love. The night I met Waltrina, we stayed up until an ungodly hour — instant sister-friends. We bonded, talking about everything, about finding and losing faith — in God and humanity — then slowly picking it up again piece by piece, about being the diversity in mostly white professional spaces, about friends, family, and the struggle to find our places (as 30-somethings) in this "new" freedom movement.
Out of a deep revolutionary love inspired by Jesus and nourished from the well of our people, we have determined to get in where we fit in, living out the belief that there is a place for everyone in the movement.
Today's fight against the powers and principalities of systemic injustice cannot be left to the continued service of the elders that survived the 1960s civil rights movement, nor hoisted solely upon the shoulders of the teens and 20-somethings of today, just because they have energy and new ideas. Despite the focus on elders and youth, this is an intergenerational movement that requires all of us to answer the communal call. I am encouraged by one of my mentors, Mama Ruby (Sales) who says it is time to have all hands on deck.
The zeitgeist is clear. Much like Emmett Till's murder in 1955 sparked the civil rights movement, the tragic string of murders of blacks in 2014 catalyzed another movement, the #BlackLivesMatter movement. This movement picks up where the civil rights movement left off, addressing systemic racial injustice in the legal and penal system, educational system, and economic system. In some ways, the battles we fight are more challenging than the ones our grandparents fought. Undeniably, we face off in a more complex world and against forms of systemic racism that are so subtle that they are almost invisible. Nevertheless, due to a unique combination of gifts and experiences, I'm hopeful that my generation of black millennials is ready to lead us on to a more equitable society. Here's why.
1. We are propelled by the prophetic legacy of the past.
With a technological savvy that gives us unprecedented access to the true history of our people, and as perhaps the last generation to breathe the same air as the civil rights generation, we draw upon the legacies of the past as we move forward. When I sense that my capacity to forgive is waning, I recall my recent conversations with several survivors of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Ala., and I'm reminded of the inner healing that forgiveness promises. When I am tempted to pander to the powers that be, I call my radical granddad and ask him to tell me again about the many Black Panthers meetings that took place at the church he pastored in Berkeley, Calif., in the 1960s. When I feel that I'm losing my courage, I read Ida B. Wells' autobiography and am reminded that we are not alone. We are connected — part of a chain of black activists, each generation inspiring the next. Our heroes guide us every day.
I cringed. Recently, I sat watching a cable news broadcast — can't remember which one. What I do remember is it featured people doing good in the world … and it made me cringe.
Lots of people were highlighted, but the two young black people they featured both shared the same general narrative: So and so had a hard life. He came from poverty. She came from abuse or neglect. But they rose above. Now look at all they've accomplished. It was striking. None of the stories of white people started with this narrative. Rather, theirs usually went something like: Little Suzy or Johnny took a class project and turned it into a major non-profit that helps thousands of orphans … in Africa.
No matter where you tuned into this broadcast, blackness unconsciously was associated with hardship and overcoming while whiteness was associated with genius and compassion.
I sat there thinking: The truth is we have had centuries of hardship to press through. Our history is present, the good and the bad. As in Toni Morrison's Beloved, the ghost of slavery haunts us. It affects our present. But it's not just the past that haunts us. It is the same basic oppression of yesteryear —confinement, control, and disregard for black lives. So, it makes sense that the stories of our overcomers are as potent in current-day narratives as they are in history.
Jackie Robinson, Joe Lewis, Paul Robeson, Zora Neale Hurston, Billie Holiday, were the overcomers of our past. The black children in that broadcast were the overcomers of our present.
But what about the black future? One hundred years from now, will my family's descendants still have to watch featured stories of black people doing good that always begins: So and so had a hard life?
During Black History Month we typically look back on all the accomplishments of those who paved the road for generations to come. But this month, we have been inspired by the #BlackLivesMatter movement to look forward to another kind of future for black men, women, and children.
I am the Dean of Students at Covenant Theological Seminary, the National Seminary of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). I am the pastor of South City Church in Saint Louis. South City Church is a PCA congregation, and it is predominantly white. I am a retired full colonel PCA Army chaplain. I was born and raised in North Saint Louis city. My father now lives in Ferguson, Mo. I am a black man. If that comes as a shock, believe me I understand; it is a shock to me every morning when I wake up and go to work at Covenant Seminary in West Saint Louis County, a mostly wealthy and white suburb. It shocks me every time I walk into my church in South Saint Louis and remember that I am one of only 47 black pastors in my denomination and that I work in a mostly white conservative, evangelical church. I am constantly at the feet of Jesus asking for help in navigating the racial, cultural, and generational waters around me. It is a wonderful opportunity, but it is challenging for someone like me; I grew up believing that white people never really wanted to be in close proximity to black people unless they were the ones controlling the situation. There was also the belief that the only black people who were successful in white organizations were the ones who did not mind being tokens without real dignity in the system. There may be people who believe these things about me. I have even questioned myself as to why I have been given so many opportunities in the PCA. I sometimes don't like the answers that come to mind.
Recently, a young pastor asked my opinion on cross-cultural ministry. He asked me how an African American got two positions as both Covenant's Dean of Students and as pastor of South City Church. I explained, "it makes no sense, since so much of the history in our denomination makes me the wrong guy for the job! But through God's sovereign will, here I am!" His response was, "I guess God always sends the wrong messenger."
It is difficult to understand why people, particularly Christians, view a statement as patently obvious as "Black Lives Matter" as a subject for controversy. However, sometimes the most obvious things still need to be said.
Black lives matter because God made every one of us in God's image. Black lives matter because the Bible tells us that we are part of a body and the eye cannot say to the hand, "I don't need you." Black lives matter because God pays particular care to those crying out under the burden of injustice and oppression.
As people of faith in a neighborhood that has been rocked by protests, tear gas, and arrests, we have sought to stand in solidarity with those who are groaning under the burden of oppression. We offer some physical support — hand warmers, a cup of coffee, an extra pair of socks, but we also offer our presence. The Bible often refers to Christians as "witnesses," and there is something important about simply standing next to our neighbors in the streets and seeing what is actually happening.
We firmly believe that Jesus needs to be down in the clouds of tear gas and he lets us, his people, participate in his reconciliation by bringing him there with our own two feet. Christians, and particularly evangelicals, need to be in the streets. Our neighbors are just outside our doors, crying out that the system is broken and that our culture doesn't value the lives of our brothers and sisters. We, as Christians, believe in sin and brokenness and we need to live out our belief that God values all of God's people even as our culture picks and chooses who is worth caring about.

First things first.
When trying to decide whether or not to catch The Real Matt Jones' set next week, don't spend any time trying to find out whether or not any "fake" Matt Jones exist. An internet search would reveal that several musicians with this same moniker do exist, and that's precisely why the Albuquerque singer/songwriter had to take action.
"I was in a rock band in high school and college and when that faded out, I was just going by 'Matt Jones' and I was trying to find a website that would work for me," Jones recently told the Journal. "Mattjones.com was taken, mattjonesmusic.com was taken, even mattjones.us. So a guy I recorded with in Australia said, 'Why not just go by the Real Matt Jones, and I thought, 'That's kind of fun.' "
|The Real Matt Jones
With the Asectic Junkies
WHEN: 8 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 23
WHERE: Cowgirl, 319 S. Guadalupe St., Santa Fe
HOW MUCH: No cover
With that out of the way, chances are that if you appreciate glistening pop music, the type that's soothing upon first listen, then you'll want to spend some time researching Jones, whose humble beginnings in the Duke City began when he was 16 and hungry to play rock music.
He and his high school bandmates formed Boss Ordinance and played their first gig at the now-defunct House of Bands venue next to the Hiland Theater. Boss Ordinance played through its members' high school years, and even into college, but the band eventually fizzled, leaving Jones to decide his fate.
"I spent about a year trying to get out of the band phase, so I wrote some songs and recorded them with a guy I met at Texas Christian University," Jones said. "Soon I had enough songs for a full record, and soon after that, I was selling enough CDs that in July of 2005 I went out on the road during the time MySpace was big. I found some coffee shops in Texas and booked a tour, and that model worked well for me."
Soon, Jones had a manager, a booking agent and had begun sharpening his songwriting skills, not to mention his smooth-as-butter croon, one that quickly envelopes the ears.
"I love it when people say that my music affects them," Jones said. "It's the most important thing to me."

Outdoor Activities
»Plaza de Toros
Visitors to Mazatlan can witness a real bullfight every Sunday at 4p from December through April at Plaza de Toros at Calzada Rafaeil Buelna, the only site of bullfighting left in Mazatlan. A tradition that goes back to prehistoric sacrifice, bullfighting is not for the faint of heart. If you come outside these months, the plaza is still worth a visit, as it is the site of rodeos as well. Tickets should be purchased in person in advance.
»Marina Mazatlan
Take a break from the restaurants and shopping nearby to hang out at Mazatlan's bustling marina. Take in a the view of this boaters paradise, which has over 200 boat slips available and plenty of convenient facilities, including a cruisers' social center, lockers, water hookup, and store selling drinks and snacks. Other services include propane and scuba tank refills, fish delivery, water delivery and anchor and chain galvanization. For those interested in sport fishing, the marina is home to several tour operators. Check the website for details.
Observatorio, also known as Lookout Hill, is one of the tallest points in the city of Mazatlan. Located on Cerro del Vigia, it was used as a lookout point from which to guard the port. A meteorological house was built at the top in 1874. A point of pride for some restaurants in the area is their view of the Observatorio. However, to really appreciate the view, visitors must make the hike and see the city from the top.
Mazagua water park is located in the north of Mazatlan and is a family favorite during the hot summer months, and any other time of year, weather permitting. Mazagua has all kinds of aquatic delights like a wave pool, inner tubes, drifting river, and all kinds of fun and crazy water slides and pools. In addition to the water attractions, Mazagua also has barbeque grills, volleyball courts, a store, palapas for relaxing in the shade, a snack bar and more. Mazagua is a great activity for the whole family if you're after a bit of freshwater diversion.
»El Faro
Though it's not the tallest lighthouse in the world, it is said that El Faro is the second highest. Located at the top of Cerro Creston, 135 meters (147.6 yards) above sea level, hikers who make make the strenuous trek to the top are treated to breathtaking views of the sea and city. The hike is steep and best enjoyed in the morning.

Defense Acquisitions:
Improved Business Case Key for Future Combat System's Success

The Future Combat System (FCS) is a networked family of weapons and other systems in the forefront of efforts by the Army to become a lighter, more agile, and more capable combat force. When considering complementary programs, projected investment costs for FCS are estimated to be on the order of $200 billion. FCS's cost is of concern given that developing and producing new weapon systems is among the largest investments the government makes, and FCS adds significantly to that total. Over the last 5 years, the Department of Defense (DOD) doubled its planned investments in such systems from $700 billion in 2001 to $1.4 trillion in 2006. At the same time, research and development costs on new weapons continue to grow on the order of 30 to 40 percent. FCS will be competing for significant funds at a time when federal fiscal imbalances are exerting great pressures on discretionary spending. In the absence of more money being available, FCS and other programs must be executable within projected resources. Today, I would like to discuss (1) the business case needed for FCS to be successful and (2) our recent recommendations to DOD and matters for congressional consideration regarding the FCS program.
There are a number of compelling aspects of the FCS program, and it is hard to argue with the program's goals. However, the elements of a sound business case for such an acquisition program--firm requirements, mature technologies, a knowledge-based acquisition strategy, a realistic cost estimate, and sufficient funding--are not yet present. FCS began product development prematurely in 2003. Since then, the Army has made several changes to improve its approach for acquiring FCS. Yet today, the program remains a long way from having the level of knowledge it should have had before starting product development. FCS has all the markers for risks that would be difficult to accept for any single system, much less a complex, multiprogram effort. These challenges are even more daunting in the case of FCS not only because there are so many of them but because FCS represents a new concept of operations that is predicated on technological breakthroughs. Thus, technical problems, which accompany immaturity, not only pose traditional risks to cost, schedule, and performance; they pose risks to the new fighting concepts envisioned by the Army. Last month, we made recommendations to the Secretary of Defense to take several actions, prior to DOD's long-term commitment to the program, to improve the FCS business case and establish knowledge-based measures to guide oversight of FCS progress. These recommendations detailed specific steps DOD should take leading up to a major milestone review of the program in 2008 when the program is expected to have achieved the level of knowledge it should have had in 2003. We believe it is at this point the program should be reviewed as to whether it has established enough of a solid business case to continue. While DOD concurred with the intent of our recommendations, it did not agree to limit its commitment to the FCS program or to do much beyond what it had already planned to do. This concerns us. As a result, we have also raised to Congress several matters for consideration to ensure that FCS has a sound business case before future funding commitments are made. We believe the actions we have recommended to DOD and the matters for consideration we have presented to Congress are necessary to improve the prospects for FCS success and to protect the government's ability to change course if the program does not progress as the Army plans.
Matters for Congressional Consideration
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: There is no reference to the May 2006 Defense Acquisition Board review in any of the FY2007 authorization or appropriations language. Consequently, it appears that Congress elected not to implement this recommendation.
Matter: Based on DOD's response to our report, it did not appear that DOD planned to assess the FCS business case against best practices or its own policies. Nor did DOD agree to hold a go/no-go milestone review in 2008 based on the preliminary design review. Congress will likely be asked to approve fiscal years 2008 and 2009 funding requests before the FCS business case is adequately demonstrated. In light of DOD's response, Congress may wish to consider directing the Secretary of Defense to report on the results of the May 2006 Defense Acquisition Board's review of the FCS program business case in the areas of requirements, technologies, acquisition strategy, cost, and funding.
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In the FY 2007 National Defense Authorization Conference Report, section 214, Congress directed the Secretary of Defense to carry out a Defense Acquisition Board milestone review of the Future Combat Systems program. Per the report, this milestone review is to happen not later than 120 days after the preliminary design review. Further, the Secretary was directed to make a determination as to whether the program should continue (i.e., a go/no-go decision). The supporting language of that section details the criteria for such a review and reflects the business case conditions we outlined in our testimony.
Matter: Based on DOD's response to our report, it did not appear that DOD planned to assess the FCS business case against best practices or its own policies. Nor did DOD agree to hold a go/no-go milestone review in 2008 based on the preliminary design review. Congress will likely be asked to approve fiscal years 2008 and 2009 funding requests before the FCS business case is adequately demonstrated. In light of DOD's response, Congress may wish to consider directing the Secretary of Defense to direct DOD to conduct and report the results of a milestone review in 2008, following the preliminary design review, that will be a go/no-go review of the FCS program based on its demonstration of a sound business case.
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In the FY 2007 National Defense Authorization Act Conference Report, section 214, Congress states that, beginning in 2009, the Secretary of Defense may not obligate any funds for procurement of the Future Combat Systems program until the secretary submits to Congress a report of the Defense Acquisition Board's milestone review that is scheduled to occur no more than 120 days after the program's preliminary design review. The contents of this report, as directed by Congress, reflect the knowledge-based acquisition criteria outlined in our testimony.
Matter: Congress may also wish to consider restricting annual appropriations for fiscal years 2008 and 2009 for the FCS program until definitive progress in establishing a sound business case is demonstrated in terms of firm requirements, mature technologies, a knowledge-based acquisition strategy, a realistic cost estimate, and sufficient funding. Most important, the Army must provide sufficient evidence FCS will work.

2005 Ford Focus Mirror
prefect fit, customer very happy, great price, service you know, with visual time of delivere
The replacement mirror arrived complete and assembled. There were no instructions on how to replace the existing mirror, but since my kids had snapped off the existing mirror, it was pretty straight forward. If you would have needed to remove the old mirror, I would see that it is pretty self explanatory. The mounts were clearly visable and it snapped right into place with nearly zero effort. I have the electric mirror and all it took to get it working was plug in the mirror with the modular connection. It does not leak around the mirror and there is zero wind noise that I can hear.
The entire process was very efficient, and installing the mirror was pretty easy, with the exception of very uniquely designed screw. I happen to have some bits in my ratchet set that worked. Window looks better than the original, less money than one I bought from a competitor and had a heat sensor for good measures.
Looked like the original and bolted up perfectly. Amazed at the quality for the price and the great service. This is my first experience with Parts Geek and I am very impressed.
The mirror for the 2005 Ford Focus ZX4 ST edition came very quickly and the mirror fit like a factory item. The finish on the mirror was also excellent as my son's car is black and We did not even have to paint this mirror. All of the electrics work as the factory mirror, and the price was great.
Part was easy to install and works great. I've been driving around for almost a year with my broken side view mirror duct-tapped in place after hitting a garbage can in the road. It was an eye sore and barely functional. I thought replacing it was going to be expensive and time consuming. Even my dad, who's a mechanic, said I was going to be out at least a hundred bucks. But about 35 dollars and 15 minutes was all it took! SO happy! Instructions for replacing the mirror can all be found on youtube.com if needed. (Only suggestion I have is when replacing the bolt back on, tape it lightly to the socket wrench to help prevent it falling down into the door panel.)

Congressman Kevin McCarthy represents the 23rd District of California, which spans Kern, Tulare, and Los Angeles counties. First elected in 2006, Kevin is a native of Bakersfield and a fourth-generation Kern County resident. He is committed to policies that give small businesses and entrepreneurs the confidence they need to hire, expand, invest and innovate. After the 2010 midterm elections, Kevin was elected by his colleagues to serve as Majority Whip of the United States House of Representatives.
Kevin started his own small business before the age of 21. He built Kevin O's Deli from the ground up, even enlisting his father's help in building the deli's counter in their garage. He worked hard, hired employees and enjoyed success in his community. That's also where he first encountered government overregulation. The countless frivolous and redundant rules, as well as the taxes small businesses like his were burdened with, spurred Kevin's interest in public service. When Kevin sold his business, he used the profits to put himself through college and graduate school. He received both his undergraduate degree and his Masters in Business Administration from California State University, Bakersfield.
During college, Kevin accepted an internship with then-Congressman Bill Thomas, and soon became a member of Congressman Thomas's staff. Kevin won his first election in 2000 as Trustee to the Kern Community College District. In 2002, McCarthy was elected to represent the 32nd Assembly District in the California State Assembly. As a freshman legislator, he was selected unanimously by his Republican colleagues to serve as the Assembly Republican Leader, becoming the first freshman legislator and the first legislator from Kern County to assume the top Republican post in the California State Assembly. Kevin worked with his colleagues in the Assembly and Senate and with the Governor to reduce California's budget deficit, overhaul the state worker's compensation system and enhance California's business climate to create more opportunities for California workers and businesses until he ran for Congress in 2006.
Kevin brings his personal experience as a small business owner and as an effective leader in the statehouse to Washington D.C. In his role as Majority Whip, Kevin leads the effort in Congress to advance common sense policies that will put America back on the path to prosperity. Since gaining control of the House in November 2010, Kevin and his Republican colleagues have blocked the largest tax increase in American history, cut out-of-control government spending by historic levels and passed numerous pieces of legislation that will help create jobs in America. These bills reduce the burden on small businesses, increase our nation's energy security by promoting domestic energy production, knock down barriers for small business owners to access capital and help increase certainty for the private sector.
Kevin will continue to fight to get Washington's fiscal house in order while promoting policies that empower the private sector to invest and create jobs.
When Kevin is not in Washington fighting for the constituents of California's 23rd District and for the future of America, he is home in Bakersfield with his wife Judy and two children Connor and Meghan.

We stayed at Per & Teeo (Farmor) for 7 nights in October. The house is done in a Thai/Western Style. The family live next door so always on hand if you need help. Teeo and her family were very friendly and helpful. Teeo was very kind to us and our 12 year old son. For many of the local villages it was the first time they had met westerners and many of them invited us to join in and learn from each other. Pickup available for rent with driver at a very reasonable price. For the internet you will need a 3G dongle and check the coverage area as internet is intermittent. A true way to learn more about the Thai people and the way of life in a Thai village which was culturally rewarding. Kev, Frannie & Jacob - Australia

Craftsman Garage Door Opener Temperature Related Problem
I'm also having temperature related problems with my Craftsman 139.53985 1/2 HP opener.
When the temperature is between 15 to 30F the opener sometimes "goes dead". Below and above this range it works fine. The problem is usually the door will not open at all when using the wall control when the green led is off. The remote doesn't work either.
I unplugged the unit for 30 seconds and after plugging it back in the green led came on dimly but was flickering. I again unplugged the unit again waiting about a minute this time before plugging it back in. This second attempt causes the LED to be on solid. First attempt at opening the door results in the door opening halfway. Depressing the wall control again closes the door. The third attempt usually succeeds and the opener will work for a few days. I've checked all connections for continuity. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
