Buy a classic car in Pomona, California, and odds are it has spent its fair share of time at the drag strip. Pomona is synonymous with drag-racing action, and drag racing is intrinsically tied to classic Corvettes. So when the guys at Corvette Queensland, of Gympie, Australia, bought a '64 hardtop from Pomona in 1996, they should have figured the Vette had a race hitory.
"It wasn't until after we had lifted the body off the frame that the car was discovered to have some sort of racing background," says current owner Kevin Silk, a plumbing contractor in Bunya, Queensland. "We found the base of a rollcage attached to the chassis." If NHRA safety rules are any indication, this Vette was at least an 11-second performer that spent much of its life on the sticky track.
According to Silk, the Vette's competitive flame was immediately reignited when the car arrived on the island continent. "The car came to Australia in late 1996. It then [went] to a local collector who used it for drag racing," he says. Silk had long had a soft spot for midyear cars, though, and he resolved to make this one his. After considerable arm-twisting, he was finally able to purchase the Vette in late 1999.
Silk tells VETTE his goal was not to return the classic Sting Ray to its drag-racing past, but to gloriously refurbish it using only the most desirable hot-rod finery. "The chassis was found to be in good shape, but everything else...was in poor condition," he says. Facing a full overhaul, Silk decided to restore the Vette to better-than-new condition, modeling its look after the custom-car style prevalent in the '60s and '70s.
The first step of the gigantic "Down Undertaking" was the beautification of the body. Silk mounted the Vette to a dolly frame and turned the restoration job over to Sprayrite, of Brendale, Queensland. Stripping the fiberglass skin of its 30 years of layered muck and abuse, the Sprayrite crew discovered that the Corvette had suffered numerous hits in its history. They smoothed the glass until it was straight (a 250-hour project alone), reworked the classic-mod flared fenders, primed the shell with an epoxy primer, and then, using Silk's choice of custom color, flowed a beautiful base of Tiger Mica over the body. Finished off with a clearcoat and a wet-sand, the results are simply breathtaking.
Next, Silk focused his efforts on the chassis and suspension. After having the underpinnings sandblasted down to the bare metal, he sprayed them in primer and then in a Chassis Black single-stage paint. He reinstalled the chassis and suspension components himself.
Moving on to the engine bay, Silk determined that the '69 350 small-block installed in the Vette was worth rebuilding, even though most of its internal components were in extremis. "The block was in good condition, so we decided to use it and replace everything else," he says.
Doug Stuart, also of Bunya, took on the project. After tanking the two-bolt-main 350 to verify its reusability, he stuffed it with a GM forged crank, TRW flat-top pistons, and stock GM rods. A pair of Fast Burn heads were ordered from GM Performance Parts and bolted up to the block. They feature 62cc combustion chambers and 210cc intake runners.
GM pushrods activate 1.5-ratio roller rockers, compress factory dual springs, and open and close 1.94/1.50-inch factory valves. A mild GMPP cam orchestrates the valvetrain to the tune of 222/222-degree duration, 0.450/0.460-inch lift, and a 114-degree lobe-separation angle. The compression ratio is a modest 9.4:1.
Silk went the aftermarket route for his Vette's fuel and intake systems. He chose an Edelbrock Performer intake topped with a Holley 650-cfm double-pumper; the combo is fed by a stock GM fuel pump pushing 6 1/2 psi. The finished long-block was installed in the car by Carson Automotive, of Brendale, Queensland.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by WayCoolJules PERFECT for leggings! This top is PERFECT for leggings for girls like myself. I am 5'7.5", 155. My height hides my weight nicely, but my hips, butt and thighs are too big for leggings when the top isn't long enough. I got the large. If I were wearing it w/ regular jeans (not skinny, not leggings) I would have gotten a medium. There wasn't a huge difference in the 2 sizes, but the L was a bit longer and since I will only wear it w/ leggings, it was a must have. Not too short, not too long. Pricey, but beautiful w/ black leggings and tall, black riding boots!! 1.17.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by RenK I LOVE THIS TOP!! I wanted this top to wear Xmas eve and absolutely love it! It runs pretty big. I usually wear a large or xl and the Medium was huge on me. I probably could have worn a small, but there were no more at the store so I bought the medium anyway. The rhinestones worried me a bit, but when I wore it, I didn't lose any. 12.28.2012
Rated 2 out of 5Â by elkn Love it but the quality is seriously lacking Just got this from my husband for Christmas. We both love it. It's really roomy but it's supposed to be - just like the photo pictured. It's a gorgeous top, would be amazing for summer. BUT, it is not a very high quality made top - I haven't even worn it and rhinestones have already fallen off and most of them are coming off. There are a lot of loose threads and ends. For the price I just can't justify keeping this top. I want to so badly, but I'm not going to pay someone to tailor it or tailor it myself to keep the rhinestones from falling off. Such a disappointment. For reference I'm 5'6" and 113lbs. The XS was perfect. So wish it was a higher quality product. :( 12.25.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by fiiimac Utterly Gorgeous! If you're looking for an effortless little piece you can throw on over leggings and look fabulous, then do not hesitate to order this lovely thing. I found it today at a local store in the Antique colour and totally adored it. The little jewelled bits are SO much prettier in person; vibrant and interesting and brightly-hued. Minus one star because the fabric seems a little cheap and scratchy at first rub, but it falls rather nicely, so it makes up for it. The shape is totally square, but I didn't feel that the small (the smallest size there, larger than my usual XS) looked too oversized, so I wouldn't be worried too much about the fit. (It hit me mid-hip, definitely tunic- and not dress-length.) All-in-all, thumbs way up! 12.19.2012
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Ky Sewn very boxy I was not too certain about this top when I received it in the mail. It is very boxy, and doesn't wear particularly well when layered (like having a sweater over it). Other than that it is really lovely. It's very unique and I love how it buttons in the back, which makes it seem just a touch sexy. The fabric is wonderful and is definitely something that can be worn in the hot summers of LA as it seems very breathable. In total, I would suggest trying this on before purchasing, just to be sure. 11.30.2012

Last week I had fresh peaches and used those in place of the blackberries, and it turned out every bit as good. Other than that I make no adjustments to the recipe."

Yankees plunder Oxford
Gen. Ulysses S. Grant learned that his army could live off the land when he attempted his first capture in 1862 of the Gibraltar of the South in Vicksburg, after the Battle of Shiloh. This was significant for the citizens of Oxford and Lafayette County. His troops would plunder the homes and farms around Oxford for not only food supplies but also for personal items.

Football Club Internazionale Milano, most commonly referred to as simply Internazionale, or Inter, is an Italian professional football club based in Milan, Lombardy, founded in 1908. The club are the only side in Italian football to have spent their entire history in the top tier (Serie A). Internazionale, who play in black and blue striped shirts with black shorts, have sixteen Serie A titles to their name; only their rivals Juventus and AC Milan have won more. Including the Coppa Italia and the Italian Super Cup, Inter have a total of 25 trophies won in Italy.
Outside of their homeland, the club have also had success in European and World tournaments; they won the European Cup in two successive finals in 1964 and 1965. They have also won the UEFA Cup three times and the World Club Championship twice. Additionally, Inter was one of founding members of the G-14, a group that formerly represented eighteen of the largest and most prestigious European football clubs.
Inter play their home games at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, also known as San Siro. The ground, which they share with rivals AC Milan, is the largest in Italian football, with a total capacity of 82,955.
The club was founded on 9 March 1908 as Internazionale FBC Milano, following a "schism" from the Milan Cricket and Football Club (43 members). A group of Italians and Swiss (Giorgio Muggiani, a painter who also designed the club's logo, Bossard, Lana, Bertoloni, De Olma, Enrico Hintermann, Arturo Hintermann, Carlo Hintermann, Pietro Dell'Oro, Hugo and Hans Rietmann, Voelkel, Maner, Wipf, and Carlo Ardussi) were unhappy about the domination of Italians in the AC Milan team, and broke away from them, leading to the creation of Internazionale. From the beginning, the club was open to foreign players and thus lived up to its founding name. The club won its very first Scudetto (championship) in 1910 and its second in 1920. The captain and coach of the first Scudetto was Virgilio Fossati, who was killed in World War I. In 1922 Inter were in Group B of the Serie A and came in last place after picking up only 11 points in the season. The last place team of each group was to be automatically relegated. The second last place teams were placed in a pre-relegation 'salvation' tournament. Inter and La Gazzetta dello Sport's editor (Colombo) petitioned the FIGC to allow Inter to participate in Serie A the following year as a year in Serie B would have been financially detrimental. The FIGC saved Inter some weeks prior to the season starting by allowing them to remain in Serie A in 1923. Venezia, who had come in 3rd last in Group B ahead of Inter, were relegated in Inter's place. In 1928, during the Fascist era, the club was forced to merge with the Milanese Unione Sportiva and was renamed Ambrosiana SS Milano. They wore white shirts around this time with a red cross emblazoned on it. This shirt design was inspired by the flag and coat of arms of the city of Milan, which in turn is derived from the flag of the patron saint of Milan, St. Ambrose and dates back to the 4th century AD. The new upcoming President Oreste Simonotti decided to change name to A.S. Ambrosiana in 1929. However, supporters continued to call the team "Inter," and in 1931 new president Pozzani caved to shareholder pressure and changed the name to AS Ambrosiania-Inter.
Their first Coppa Italia (Italian Cup) was won in 1938-39, led by the great legend Giuseppe Meazza, after whom the San Siro stadium is officially named, and a fifth league championship followed in 1940, despite an injury to Meazza. After the end of World War II the club re-emerged under a name close to their original one, Internazionale FC Milano, which they have kept ever since.
Following the golden era of the 1960s, Inter managed to win their eleventh league title in 1971 and their twelfth in 1980. Inter were defeated for the second time in five years in the final of the European Cup, going down 0-2 to Johan Cruijff's Ajax Amsterdam in 1972. During the 1970s and the 1980s, Inter also added two Coppa Italias to their tally in 1977-78 and 1981-82.
Led by the German duo of Andreas Brehme and Lothar Matthäus, and Argentine Ramon Diaz, Inter captured the 1989 Serie A championship. Fellow German Jürgen Klinsmann and the Italian Supercup were added the following season but to little avail as Inter did not manage to defend their title.
With Massimo Moratti's takeover from Ernesto Pellegrini in 1995, Inter were promised more success with many high profile signings such as Ronaldo, Christian Vieri and Hernán Crespo, with Inter twice breaking the world record transfer fee in this period. €19.5 million for Ronaldo from FC Barcelona in 1997 and €31 million for Christian Vieri from Lazio in 1999. However the 1990s remained a decade of disappointment and is the only decade in Inter's history in which they failed to win a single Serie A championship. For Inter fans it was difficult to identify who in particular might be to blame for these troubled times and this led to some icy relations between president, managers and even some individual players.
Inter chairman Massimo Moratti later became a target for the fans, especially when he sacked much-loved coach Luigi Simoni after only a few games into the 1998/99 season, after having just received the Italian Manager of the Year award for 1998 the day before, Massimo Moratti decided to end his contract. In the 1998/99 season Inter failed to qualify for any European competition for the first time in almost 10 years, finishing in a poor eighth place.
In the 1999/00 season, Massimo Moratti made some major changes, once again with some high-profile signings. A major coup for Inter was the appointment of former Juventus manager Marcello Lippi. Inter were seen by the majority of the fans and press to have finally put together a winning formula. Other signings included Italian and French legends Angelo Peruzzi and Laurent Blanc together with other former Juventus players Christian Vieri and Vladimir Jugovic. Inter were also seen to have an advantage in this season as they had no European "distraction". Once again they failed to win the elusive Scudetto. However they did manage to come close to their first domestic success since 1989 when they reached the Coppa Italia final only to be defeated by Lazio allowing them to win the Scudetto and domestic cup double.
The following season more disaster struck. Inter impressed in the Supercoppa Italia match against Lazio and took the lead through new signing Robbie Keane – however, they lost 4-3. Overall, though, they were looking good for the season that was about to start. What followed was another embarrassment, as they were eliminated in the preliminary round of the Champions League by Swedish club Helsingborgs IF. Alvaro Recoba was given the opportunity to draw the sides level with a last-minute penalty, yet he missed, hitting the post, and Inter found themselves back at square one as Marcello Lippi, the manager at the time, was sacked after only a single game of the new season following Inter's first ever Serie A defeat to Reggina. Throughout this period, Inter suffered mockery from their neighbours AC Milan; Milan were having a period of success both domestically and in Europe. They also seemed to be suffering from a series of non-ending defeats at the hands of their city rivals, including an unfortunate 0-6 defeat in the 2000/01 season -- their worst "home" result in history. Marco Tardelli, chosen to replace Lippi, failed to improve results, and is remembered by Inter fans as the manager that lost this match. Other members of the Inter squad during this period that suffered were the likes of Christian Vieri and Fabio Cannavaro, both of whom had their restaurants in Milan vandalised after defeats against AC Milan.
Inter fans' protests throughout this period ranged from vandalism to banners being unfurled in the stadium to protest against certain players. In some cases fans arranged for the Curva Nord, a section of the stadium to be empty for entire matches. Inter were in this period often deemed to be one of the favourites for the championship. This led to a popular AC Milan chant against Inter – "Luglio Agosto" (July and August); this was because during the summer months according to the press Inter had won the championship before it had even begun, only for them not to realise their promise.
In 2002, not only did Inter manage to make it to the Uefa cup semi-finals, they were also only 45 minutes away from capturing the Scudetto, when they needed to maintain a one-goal advantage over SS Lazio at Rome's Olimpico stadium in the final match of the season, and Inter were top of the Serie A table at kick-off. However, a defeat would see Juventus, who were second, or even AS Roma, in third place, take the title from them, should these sides win. As a result, some SS Lazio fans were actually openly supporting Inter during this match, as an Inter victory would prevent their bitter rivals AS Roma from winning the championship. Inter were 2-1 up after only 24 minutes. SS Lazio equalised during first half injury time and then scored two more goals in the second half to clinch victory that eventually saw Juventus win the championship after their 2-0 victory away to Udinese. The date of this match -- 5th May 2002 -- still haunts Inter.
2002/03 saw Inter take a respectable second place and also managed to make it to the 2003 Champions League semi finals against AC Milan. Although they drew on aggregate 1-1 with AC Milan, Inter lost on the away goals rule, even though both matches were played in the same stadium. It was another disappointment but they were finally on the right track.
However, once again Massimo Moratti's impatience got the better of him, Hernán Crespo was sold after just one season, and Hector Cuper was fired after only a few games. Alberto Zaccheroni stepped in, a life-long Inter fan but also the man who had been in charge of SS Lazio's 4-2 win over Inter in 2002 - the fans were sceptical. Zaccheroni brought nothing new to the side, apart from two fantastic wins over Juventus 3-1 in Turin and 3-2 at the San Siro and the season was again nothing special. They were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League in the first round after finishing 3rd in the group. Furthermore, they only just managed to qualify for the Champions League by finishing in 4th place, only a point ahead of Parma. Inter's only saving grace in 2003/04 was the arrival of Dejan Stankovic and Adriano in January 2004, both solid players that filled the gap left by the departures of Hernán Crespo and Clarence Seedorf.
Inter were awarded the 2005-06 Serie A championship as they were the highest placed side in the season's final league table after points were stripped from Juventus and AC Milan - both sides being involved in the match fixing scandal that year. On 14 July 2006, The Italian Federal Appeal Commission found Serie A clubs Juventus, Lazio, Fiorentina, Reggina and AC Milan guilty of match-fixing and punished the 5 clubs involved, although all charges were later reduced to some extent. As a result, with the relegation of Juventus Turin to Serie B (for the first ever time in their history) and the 8-point deduction for city rivals AC Milan, Inter became favorites to retain their Serie A title for the upcoming 2006-07 Serie A season.
During the season, Inter went on a record-breaking run of 17 consecutive victories in Serie A, starting on 25 September 2006 with a 4-1 home win over Livorno, and ending on 28 February 2007, after a 1-1 draw at home to Udinese. The 5-2 away win at Catania on 25 February 2007 broke the original record of 15 matches held by both Bayern Munich and Real Madrid from the "Big 5" (the top flight leagues in England, Italy, Spain, France & Germany). The run lasted for almost 5 months and is among the best in European league football, with just Benfica (29 wins), Celtic (25 wins) and PSV Eindhoven (22 wins) bettering it. Inter's form dipped a little as they recorded 0-0 and 2-2 draws against relegation-battlers Reggina and slumping to Palermo (respectively), the latter game featuring a second-half comeback after Palermo went up 2-0 at halftime. They could not keep their invincible form up near the end of the season as well, as they lost their first game of the domestic season to Roma in the San Siro 3-1 thanks to two late Roma goals. Inter had enjoyed an unbeaten Serie A run for just under a year.
On 22 April 2007 Inter were crowned Serie A champions for the second consecutive season after defeating Siena 2-1 at Stadio Artemio Franchi. Italian World Cup winning defender Marco Materazzi scored both goals in the 18th and 60th minute, with the latter being a penalty. Inter started the 2007–08 season with the goal of winning both Serie A and UEFA Champions League. The team started well in the league, topping the table from the first round of matches, and also managed to qualify for the Champions League knockout stage; however, a late collapse leading to a 2-0 defeat with 10 men away to Liverpool on February 19 in the Champions League threw into question Mancini's future at Inter, and domestic form took a sharp turn of fortune with the team failing to win in the three following Serie A games (drawing with Sampdoria and major league opponents Roma, before losing away to Napoli their first domestic defeat of the season. After being eliminated by Liverpool in the Champions League, Mancini then announced his intention to leave his job, only to change his mind the following day.
An improvement in results then gave Inter the chance to wrap up their scudetto race twice, but a defeat to city rivals A.C. Milan and a home draw against Siena catapulted AS Roma to within just 1 point of Inter going into the final round of the Championship. Inter then managed to win at Parma thanks to two goals by Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who was still recovering from a knee injury and came off the bench to score for his team.
Following this win, the club however decided to sack Mancini on 29 May, citing his declarations following the Champions League defeat to Liverpool as the reason. On June 2 Inter announced on their official website that they had appointed former Porto and Chelsea boss José Mourinho as new head coach, with Giuseppe Baresi as his assistant. This makes Mourinho the only foreign coach in Italy for the forthcoming season. . Mourinho made only three additions to the squad during the summer transfer window of 2008 in the form of Alessandro Faiolhe Amantino ,Sulley Ali Muntari and Ricardo Quaresma .
The current president and owner of Inter is Massimo Moratti. His father, Angelo Moratti, was the president of Inter during the club's golden era of the 1960s.
In Internazionale's history, 55 coaches have coached the club. The first manager was Virgilio Fossati and the current manager is José Mourinho, who was appointed on 2 June 2008. Helenio Herrera had the longest reign as Internazionale coach, with 9 years (8 consecutive) in charge, and is the most successful coach in Inter history with 3 Scudetto, 2 UEFA Champions League and 2 Intercontinental Cup wins.
For the majority of their history Inter have worn black and blue stripes. When the club was first founded in 1908, black was chosen to represent night and blue was chosen to represent the sky. After a merger in 1928 with Unione Sportiva Milanese, Inter changed its name to Ambrosiana SS Milano and its colours to a white shirt with a red cross on top of it, the new colours represented the flag of Milan. After World War II the club changed their name and their colours back to the original incarnation, Inter continue on with the black and blue stripes to this day, leading to the nickname nerazzurri. The Milanese flag kit has been revived occasionally as an away kit however.
One of the nicknames of Inter is I biscione which means "the big grass snake". It was chosen because in Milanese heraldry the snake is historically important; it features on the coat of arms of the House of Sforza (who ruled over Italy from Milan during the Renaissance period), the city of Milan, the historical Duchy of Milan (a four hundred year state of the Holy Roman Empire) and Insubria (a historical regional area which the city of Milan falls within).
Inter is the third most supported football club in Italy according to an August 2007 research by Italian newspaper La Repubblica,. Historically the largest section of Inter fans from the city of Milan, have been the middle-class bourgeoisie Milanese, while AC Milan fans are typically working-class and a significant portion are migrants from Southern Italy.
The traditional ultras group of Inter is Boys San, they hold a significant place in the history of the ultras scene in general due to the fact that they are one of the oldest; founded in 1969. Politically the ultras of Inter are usually considered right-wing, as thus they have good relationships with Verona and Lazio. As well as the main group Boys San, there are four more significant groups; Viking, Irriducibili, Ultras, and Brianza Alcoolica.
Inter have several rivalries, two of which are highly significant in Italian football; firstly they participate in the inter-city Derby della Madonnina with AC Milan, the rivalry has existed ever since Inter splintered off from Milan in 1908. The name of the derby refers to the Blessed Virgin Mary, whose statue atop the Milan Cathedral is one of the city's main attractions. The match usually creates a lively atmosphere, with numerous (often humorous or offensive) banners unfolded before the match. Flares are commonly present, but they also led to the abandonment of the second leg of the 2005 Champions League quarter-final matchup between Milan and Inter on 12 April, after a flare thrown from the crowd by an Inter supporter struck Milan keeper Dida on the shoulder.
The other most significant rivalry is with Juventus, the two participate in the Derby d'Italia. Up until the 2006 Serie A match-fixing scandal, which saw Juventus relegated, the two were the only Italian clubs to have never played below Serie A. Notably the two sides are the most supported in Italy, the rivalry has intensified since the later part of the 1990s. Clubs such as Bologna, Atalanta and Roma are also considered to be amongst their rivals.

Marvel Two-In-One was a American comic book series published by Marvel Comics that featured the Fantastic Four member, the Thing, in a different team-up each issue with a different character. The series continued from the team-up stories starring the Thing in the final two issues of Marvel Feature (1971 series), and lasted for 100 issues, from January, 1974, through June, 1983. Seven annuals were also published. As the series progressed, many of the characters paired with the Thing were more obscure superheroes (or, on occasion, supervillains). Although popular, the series never attained the commercial success of Marvel Team-Up, which featured Spider-Man in the same format of different guest stars each month.
Many notable comics creators contributed to the series, including Steve Gerber, Frank Miller, Jack Kirby, John Byrne, John Buscema, George Pérez and Marv Wolfman.
Marvel Two-In-One ended with a "team-up" between the Thing and Ben Grimm, his own human alter ego, in issue 100; this team-up was enabled by the Thing travelling to a parallel timeline in which he was not the Thing. The alternate Ben Grimm seen here had first appeared in Marvel Two-in-One #50. Immediately following the cancellation of Marvel Two-In-One, the Thing was given his own solo title, sans team-ups, in which the Thing decided to leave the Fantastic Four and remain on the Beyonder's alien planet where he could control the transformation to his rocky form.

A gasoline retailer in East Rockaway has been arrested on charges of selling regular unleaded gasoline at the higher prices charged for premium unleaded gas, according to authorities. Michael Carver, 29, oper-ator of Shane Oil Ltd., 464 A t l a n t i c Avenue, East Rockaway, was arrested on misdemeanor charges of vio-lating the state's General Business Law. He was released in his own custody a f t e r arraignment before District Court Judge Cha-rles Heine. According to Assistant District Attorney Burton Ryan, Carver sold regular unleaded gas—which usually sells for $.79 a gallon~as h i g h e r - o c t a n e p r e m i um unleaded, for as high as $1.25 per gallon. Edward Grilli, a spokes-man for District Attorney Denis Dillon, said that the investigation was the result of a joint operation with the Nassau County Office of Consumer Affairs. He said that the pumps at the station were sealed and that infor- Bond Reffsrsnlum Stated for October 14 Two classes of fourth-grade students from Wav-erly Avenue School slipped into the Grist Mill Museum two days after it had offi-cially closed. For the past five years the students have been coming, but it was thought they had decided to skip the trip this year. How-ever, there was just a slip-up in making arrangements, so the welcome mat was once more pulled out for them. As usual they were an enthu-siastic, interested group of nine-year olds. The. fire-men's "Tootsie," the old pumper, is always an attrac-tion, some asked why the men who pulled the pumper, had to draw the water from nearby streams to put out fires instead of hooking up to hydrants. Of course. East Rockaway had no hydrants in ' t h em dar days" and had to depend" on streams for their hoses or buckets. Wonder how many homes were saved. Heard that once the fire house itself burned down! Not only the youngster do not realize how things worked in the old days, Showing a lady a pair of long white, kid gloves in one of the cases she asked. "How in the world did they ever button them up?" With a tiny buttonhook," was the reply. "And what is a but-tonhook?" was the next question. Questions like this make ye old historian know her age. One that really by Mildred Roemer "floored" her was when relating the story about the famous Henri's Restaurant on Scranton Avenue. Henri had made the first "crepe sussettes," named for a French girl friend. "And," she was told, "during prohi-bition it was a speakeasy for politicians and 'big wigs' from the city." What?" asked the confused visitor, "is a speakeasy?" Another time a mother noted the metal pieces on the toes and heels of the children's shoes in Sam Rhame's store. "Oh, see," she said to her child," they did tap dancing in those days too." Sorry, but those bits of metal were ham-mered on there so that the shoes would last longer. Children always ask about the brass-topped inkwells on each desk. A gentleman sug-gested in all seriousness that they had something to do with ear phones. (Continued on Page 10} A community bond issue referendum to gain approval to build a new Rhame Avenue School has been scheduled for Tuesday, October 14, 1986. The East Rockaway Board of Education has published the legal notices and has mailed to each home in the district a description of the proposed new school. A two-story, energy-efficient, safe and secure building is scheduled to be built on the rear portion of the site. It will contain 18 classrooms, plus adequate facilities for a library-media center, computer education, art, music, physical educa-tion and office areas. The new school will have an attractive 2-station gym/- cafeteria with a stage for concerts and plays. The grounds will be a mix of p l a y g r o u n d s and open grassy areas. The district's architects project that building a new school will take until Sep-tember, 1988.

Voting hours will be from 6:00a.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the Main Gymna-sium of the ESRHS on October 14, 1986.

Of t h a t, $2,000,000 will come from our insurance settlement on the January fire and the community will be asked to approve a bond issue of $3,576,000. However, New York State special building aid w i l l pay for n e a r ly $1,400,000, leaving the community to pay for approximately $2,100,000.

School DistncTiJurrently has an A rating from Moody's Investment Ser-vice), the District borrowed $3.3 million for the 1984 renovation bond at an aver-age interest of 7.25%. The borrowed money has been invested until it is actu-ally needed to pay construc-tion costs at a higher rate of interest than the rate we paid to borrow. The actual sale of bonds, if approved on October 14, may take place as late as 12- 18 months later. At that time, the district's f i n a n c i a l a d v i s o r s will recommend a term of bor-rowing (from 15 years to 30 years) and sell bonds on a competitive bidding basis.

Gallup award from Quill & Scroll, the International Honor ' Society for HS Journalists, the highest honor given to a handful of the International First Place Award Winners in their annual judging. Adviser Leonard Daven-port noted that "of all the awards staff received for last year's efforts, this is the most prestigious." Six issues were evaluated in the judging. Horizon received 943 points out of a possible 1000. "It's a first for us, and I can't remember when another New York State paper took this award."

Judge Ute Lally of the Nassau Dis-trict Court will be keynote^)eaker. The event, honoring Muriel Siebert of Muriel Siebert & Co., Inc., and Maureen Clancy, principal of Clancy and Clancy, Inc., a Garden City insurance firm, brings attention to the fact that the Boy Scouts' Explorer program has a fifty percent female membership. More than 6,000 young Nas-sau women between 14 and 21 are given in-depth expo-sure to a variety of careers in the program.

Ken Rosen, Jen Rechner, and Kevin Cros-san, were last year's News and Sports editors. The judge who made the nomination wrote that the "the depth and breadth" of Horizon's "reporting is out-standing." Of the general news coverage, he com-, mented that "this kind of coverage plus the eye you keep on the community and other schools is your forte." Sports coverage was singled out as "very well done...cov-ering all sports." Quality of Reporting Commended Special Recognition, said the judge, went "for the quality of your reporting and the number of sources who talk to you. You have obviously established your credibility." Photographs were praised for "action" and the staff was com-mended because they "aren't afraid to play a photo big... a pleasure to see!" The size of Horizon's mail circula-t i o n earned a simple "Wow!" from the judge who was also impressed with the "well designed ads" and the total ad revenue. "Raising $7000 is no joke." The George Gallup Award is just one of a series of local and national awards won by HORIZON last y e a r , which g e n e r a t ed honors in every category in Newsday's annual contest, national awards from the American Scholastic Press Association, and state and national prizes from the Women's Federation of Press Writers. The judge wrote to the staff that they deserved "a standing ovation." Then added, "You give opportun-ities to everyone and still do a credible job of writing, reporting and packaging the news. Quality and quantity are an unbeatable combina-tion."

Organization Website: http://www.bronxdefenders.org/
Location: Bronx
Former Intern(s): Cindy Gao Columbia '12; Anneke Dunbar-Gronke, Columbia '12
Organization Description
The Bronx Defenders is an interdisciplinary, holistic defense organization dedicated to addressing the underlying causes and resulting consequences of involvement with the criminal and family justice systems.
The foundation of The Bronx Defenders' collaborative approach is based upon teams composed of criminal defense and civil lawyers, social workers, investigators, and parent and client advocates who address, not just the immediate criminal or family court case, but also the host of issues that drive individuals into the system. The Bronx Defenders has gained national and international attention for advancing this holistic defense model.
Guggenheim Internship Desciption
The primary duty of the Guggenheim intern is to interview people who are accusing our clients of crimes, seeking evidence to help defend our client in court.
Other investigative duties include locating favorable defense witnesses, performing criminal background investigation, drafting and serving subpoenas, photographing and diagramming crime scenes, preparing courtroom exhibits, writing memoranda regarding investigative steps and results, and assisting with case development.
The work is carried out in the field, at private homes, on the street, and in the Bronx community. Interns also have the opportunity to observe trials, and participate in community outreach.
This is not a desk job; interns will spend the majority of their time in the Bronx community, speaking to people about the crimes with which our clients are accused.The internship will commence with a training in each of the practice areas of the Bronx Defenders: criminal defense, family defense (parent representation), civil and immigration practice, and our policy and community organizing practice. After this initial training, interns will be trained on the specifics and tools of investigation, and will receive an orientation to the Bronx.
Intern Qualifications
We seek smart, energetic, self-motivated team players dedicated to social justice who are comfortable working in the Bronx community.
Bilingual [Spanish/English] a strong benefit.
Interns will travel primarily via public transportation. A metrocard will be provided.
Expected Start Time: 10:00 am
Expected End Time: 6:00 pm
Required Dates: During time period: 06/04/2013-08/09/2013
Internship Length: 8-10 weeks
Additional Information: No preparation work for this internship will take place outside of the regular work schedule; occasionally, however, interns choose to work on assigned investigations outside of the regular work schedule.

Ignition: Do You Believe in $1.99 Comics?
June 24th, 2009
Author David Pepose
By Bon Alimagno
Do you believe in $1.99 comics? It's a simple question, right? Yet we all seem to be trapped helpless in a world where the average price of a comic book creeps ever upward toward $4. If someone had figured out how to stop the momentum of this oncoming train, he or she would've done it by now.
It's a dilemma we've wrestled with for a while as we considered the pricing of our next Vampirella comics, a four part monthly miniseries, Vampirella: The Second Coming. You see, this September marks the 40th Anniversary of Vampirella and we knew we needed to do something special. When we examined the character's place in the industry we felt that Vampi wasn't where she should be, firmly lodged in the Top 100. Simply put, Vampirella's fan base wasn't as large as it once was, and definitely wasn't as large as it should be. We needed to broaden the pool of support.
So we set a goal: break back into the Top 100 for the first time in years. But we knew what we were up against. Even armed with a stellar, game changing story by Phil Hester and art by future star Daniel Sampere, we faced an army of torch-bearing doubters and critics. We needed to do something radical, something that would break through the pollution of hype and nonsense that fills your daily intake of comics news and assorted mumbo-jumbo. So we put our money where our mouth is: we're pricing every issue, yes, EVERY ISSUE, of this miniseries $1.99.
So again I ask: Do you believe in $1.99 comics? Because $1.99 comics is not easy, it may prove impossible. It is quite frankly a matter of faith. We need you to believe in us and we need to believe in you. You need to believe that we can deliver a high quality, thought provoking, riveting story for half the price you may now be normally paying. We need to believe that you will give us a chance, that the now old saying is true, "If you build it, they will come."
Because we need you, each and every one of you. I know we haven't made it easy over the years to be a fan of Vampirella. We've done our best and if we've fallen short in your eyes it's not because we set out to do so. But now we want you back.
As is said, this isn't easy. Most comic book readers don't think about how much money goes into making a comic book, even before printing costs. I won't go into it since it'll probably scare you off and make you wonder how any comic in this day and age can make money. But when confronted with this difficult choice, we made the decision that we feel would bring us new readers, even with sacrifices on our part involved.
Frankly I don't think many companies can do this, certainly not Marvel and DC. We can do it because our staff is incredibly small, cutting overhead costs. We can do it because we don't make most of our money through comic book sales in the direct market, but through trade reorders, online sales through our website, Vampirella.com, on eBay and through our fan club – though we know none of that would be possible without a foundation set in the direct market. And perhaps most importantly we can do it thanks to talented and creative people who are willing to work with us and within a limited budget because they believe in what we are doing.
With all of that the rest is simple: use the so-called slimline or Fell format (20 pages, self-cover with subtly thinner paper stock), publish with four covers and a 1-in-40 retailer incentive and hope for the best. This could backfire of course, backfire royally. But we have faith in our product and we have faith in you. In the coming weeks I'll talk more about Vampirella: The Second Coming. If the price has at least got your attention, then when I start talking about all that you'll get for it, we hope we'll have won you over.
We teased this last week with a promotional piece inspired by Shepard Fairey's oft-copied HOPE poster of Barack Obama. Sure, associating yourself in any way with our new president has become a bit of a tired, yet effective, means of grabbing attention. But for us publishing $1.99 comics is a statement of hope – for our product, for our fans and for the comic book industry as a whole. Now it's time to turn hope into action. Go to your retailers and tell them about what we're doing, ask them to order you a copy. Join our Facebook fan page and our twitter (@realvampirella) and help us spread the word. Let's see – together – if the comic book industry really does believe in $1.99.
See you next week… for another surprise…
Bon Alimagno is Director - Publishing & Editorial for Harris Comics, publishers of Vampirella.
I'm not a Vampirella fan, but then I've never gave it a chance. For $1.99 an issue, I'm onboard for this mini.

Put-in-Bay is an incorporated village located on South Bass Island, Ottawa County, Ohio, United States. The population was 128 at the 2000 census. The village played a significant role in the War of 1812 as the location of the squadron of U.S. naval commander Oliver Hazard Perry, who sailed from the port on September 10, 1813 to engage a British squadron just north of the island in the Battle of Lake Erie. The village is a popular summer resort and recreational destination. Ferry service connects it with Catawba Island, Kelleys Island, Port Clinton, and Sandusky, Ohio.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.6 square miles (1.7 km²), of which, 0.5 square miles (1.2 km²) of it is land and 0.2 square miles (0.5 km²) of it (28.12%) is water.
There were 67 households out of which 16.4% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 49.3% were married couples living together, 4.5% had a female householder with no husband present, and 44.8% were non-families. 41.8% of all households were made up of individuals and 6.0% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 1.91 and the average family size was 2.59.
In the village the population was spread out with 15.6% under the age of 18, 4.7% from 18 to 24, 25.8% from 25 to 44, 38.3% from 45 to 64, and 15.6% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 47 years. For every 100 females there were 124.6 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 116.0 males.
The median income for a household in the village was $52,917, and the median income for a family was $80,000. Males had a median income of $47,083 versus $38,750 for females. The per capita income for the village was $35,301. None of the population and none of the families were below the poverty line.
The island's primary industry is tourism. The tourist season runs roughly between April and October. The most common methods of transportation to and from the island are via ferry boat, propeller driven aircraft and private boat.
Put-in-Bay is the site of Perry's Victory and International Peace Memorial commemorating Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry's September 10, 1813 naval victory over British ships in the War of 1812. Construction of the monument began in 1912 and it opened to the public on June 13,1915. It is 352 feet (107 m) tall and made up of 78 layers of pink granite, topped with an eleven short ton (10 metric ton) bronze urn. The remains of six naval officers, three British and three Americans, were interred beneath the floor of the monument's rotunda.
Other Historical sites include:
There are approximately 600 full-time (South Bass Island) residents, most of whom remain on the island over the winter. Supplies and perishables are flown to the island during the winter months along with the mail, parcels and bank employees who staff the island's only bank (for one day a week) until the spring. The island has a single school that is used for all classes (grades kindergarten through 12) and also serves the educational requirements of Middle Bass and North Bass islands. These students arrive by plane, boat or ATV across the frozen lake depending on the season and weather.
Put-in-Bay has one grocery store, one hardware store, one school, one gas station, a library branch, a post office, one bank and two cemeteries. It has two corporate franchise restaurants, Dairy Queen and Subway, and no cinema. The island does not have a hospital, but does have an Emergency Medical Service that can use a Life Flight helicopter to transport critically ill patients to mainland medical facilities. It is also home to the Put-in-Bay Airport.
In 1952-1959, and in 1963, the island held road races around a course. A modern R/C car track is in operation today.
The Boy Scouts of America have held a Jamboree at the base of Perry's Monument.

Garden statuary can be used for more than decor. While we do put high quality animal garden sculptures, garden angels, and other classic sculptures into a garden or backyard to help beautify it and give it character, we can also use religious statues for inspiration and paying homage to our belief systems. We can put in outdoor garden water fountains to bring the soothing sound of falling water into the backyard, and the permanence and beauty of sculptures make them perfect for remembering loved ones who have passed away.
The Angel of Grief Monument Statue is a classic piece that was designed by William Wetmore Story in memory of his dearly departed wife. Similar sculptures are seen in cemeteries and gardens to this day because they encapsulate the grief we feel upon losing a loved one. This statue pairs well with the Angels of Alghero Religious Statues and the stunning Intercession Angel: Praying Hands Religious Statue.
Cast stone memorial garden benches are another excellent means of remembering loved ones with garden decor. We have a variety of cast stone benches in our collection that can be personalized with the name of the dearly departed. The In Our Hearts Forever Personalized Cast Stone Memorial Garden Bench is one such item that reminds us of the love we still feel for the departed with a beautiful phrase.
Enjoy 20% off these items and all garden statues at Design Toscano from today until April 14th.

Leaf Spring Shackles and Bracket Repair at 1A Auto
What are Leaf Spring Shackles and Brackets and where are they Located?
Leaf spring shackles and brackets, which are also called "hangers", are parts of a vehicle's suspension that attaches the leaf spring to the vehicle's frame. To better describe what leaf spring shackles and brackets are, perhaps it's best to start with the leaf spring itself. A leaf spring, sometimes also referred to as a semi-elliptical spring, carriage spring, or cart spring, is an arc of steel that attaches to a vehicle's axle. Leaf springs are commonly used in trucks (new and old), as well as some big old cars, and generally only on the rear axle. In some heavy-duty trucks they may be used in the front as well. However, you won't find leaf springs used on any modern cars as they don't ride all that nicely, and aren't necessary for smaller vehicles. They are also commonly used in off-road applications. Leaf springs provide the benefit of allowing the vehicle to handle carrying loads really well by absorbing the force it creates as the vehicle is driven – bending and flexing out in a shape like a horseshoe - so that the vehicle doesn't sag.
The leaf spring bracket is where the leaf spring attaches to the vehicle's frame. Typically, there are brackets for both the front and the rear end of each leaf spring. The front end of the spring connects directly to the bracket or "hanger." In the rear, the leaf spring is usually attached to the bracket via a link called the leaf spring shackle. On vehicles that have been designed with a unibody frame, like most newer SUVs, the leaf spring shackle mounts directly to the frame rather than to a bracket. So, on a typical vehicle with a full frame (most trucks) and two leaf springs in the rear, there will be two leaf spring shackles and four leaf spring brackets; vehicles with a unibody frame will have two leaf spring shackles and two leaf spring brackets. If the truck also has two leaf springs in the front of the vehicle, well, you get the picture – it all depends. While the front end of the leaf spring is held close to the vehicle's frame by the bracket, the rear end is allowed some amount of movement by the shackle. This allows the spring to flex in response to bumps in the road.
How do I Know if my Leaf Spring Shackle or Bracket Needs to be Replaced?
Leaf spring suspension is designed to be simple and sturdy, but like any other part, leaf spring shackles and brackets are susceptible to wear and tear. Shackles (literally) hang out underneath the body of the vehicle where they get exposed to the elements. Wet or humid conditions can lead to rust and corrosion. So can exposure to salt. Shackles and brackets can also get worn out by being jostled around by rough road conditions, potholes, or minor collisions. These can also lead to a broken leaf spring shackle or bracket.
A thumping or scratching sound in the rear of the vehicle can be a sign of a worn or damaged leaf spring shackle or bracket. If the shackle becomes too loose, it may bump into the frame of the vehicle, which can cause further damage to both the shackle and the frame. A saggy appearance in your vehicle's rear end can also be a sign something is wrong with your leaf spring shackle (a saggy appearance in the driver's rear end, on the other hand, may be a sign of a poor diet). There are a couple ways to check the health of your leaf spring shackles. You can park your vehicle on a level surface and measure the distance from the ground to the top of each wheel well. If there is a significant difference between the heights of either side, one side may have a worn shackle (or some other part of the suspension may be worn). You can also visually inspect the shackle for cracks or wear. A round wear area around the nut is fairly normal, but an oval wear area indicates larger movement and is a sign that the shackle should be replaced.
As for the leaf spring bracket, If a bracket breaks, the body of the vehicle will fall onto the leaf spring, without the support of the suspension. This can cause further damage to the bracket and the spring as well as the body. It would be wise to periodically visually inspect the bracket for cracks or wear before any such disaster occurs.
Can I Replace a Leaf Spring Shackle or Bracket Myself?
As mentioned earlier, leaf spring suspensions are designed to be simple. Therefore, if you have determined that you are in need of a leaf spring shackle or bracket replacement, replacing it should be within your grasp with a bit of effort. For a shackle replacement, you will need to raise the rear end onto jack stands and allow the suspension to sag, in order to take weight off the shackle. Then you'll pull the bolts from the old shackle, where it connects to the leaf spring and where it connects to the body. Then bolt the new shackle into place. After slowly lowering the vehicle back to the ground, you'll want to check that the bolts are tight when the vehicle's weight is on them.
For a leaf spring hanger replacement, you will also need to raise the rear end onto jack stands and allow the suspension to sag, in order to take weight off the leaf springs. This will allow you to disconnect the leaf springs and get at the bracket. Then remove the old bracket, mount the new one, and reattach the leaf spring. After lowering the vehicle off the jack stands, again you will want to be sure to check that everything still holds tight under weight.
Need a Leaf Spring Shackle or Bracket Replacement?
After years of exposure to the elements, the metal on the leaf spring shackle and bracket will tend to start flaking and rust away, eventually leading to failure. Rough road conditions and collisions can also damage and possibly break them. Once this happens, the vehicle will be essentially rendered inoperable. Luckily for you, if you are in need of a leaf spring shackle or bracket replacement, then you have you have come to the right place! At 1A Auto, we carry aftermarket leaf spring shackles and brackets for many makes and models, including kits.

BONIFAY — The Holmes County Board of County Commissioners approved of their recently revised garbage franchise agreement during their Tuesday, Aug. 13, meeting.
County Attorney Jeff Goodman explained that it was basically the same agreement before only this time it added the requirement for franchises to show proof of insurance and reinforced that if any franchise that did not comply with the agreement could have their contract with the county terminated.
The board agreed to allow Goodman to advertise for Ordinance 05-08.
"This is a small county surtax that was started 17 or 18 years ago," said Goodman. "For financial reasons the county has chosen to renew and I need permission to advertise to schedule for September to get it going."
The board approved renewing their membership with Opportunity Florida in the amount of $1,992.70.
Commissioner Bill Parish asked what benefits the county receives from being a member of Opportunity Florida and Chairman Monty Merchant replied a "solicitation of businesses."
"Their goal is bringing in businesses to the area," said Goodman. "I like the idea of being a part of them."
Merchant reminded the board that there are a couple of members of the Holmes County Development Commission that have resigned.
"It's nothing we need to do right now, it's just something we need to consider and bring the names to the next meeting," said Merchant. "Shirley Hawthorn's term is up but she has volunteered to continue serving on the board."
The board approved of reappointing Hawthorn and agreed to bring names for potential new members at the next scheduled meeting.
Malinda Pollock with CDG Engineers came before the Board to request a Landfill Permit Modification in efforts to save the county up to $7,000 a year.
"It is to change the gas testing from quarterly to annually," said Pollock. "This will drastically reduce laboratory fees and should save you up to $7,000 per year."
Board approved of the Landfill Permit Modification in the amount of $3,200.
Commissioner Bobby Sasnett asked how many years were left on the permit and Pollock replied that in 2010 there was 25 years left.
The board agreed with Parish's request to hold a 30-minute workshop before every morning meeting of the Board of County Commissioners where they could discuss items with department heads.
"It's just an organizational advantage we don't usually have," said Parish. "We'll try it for a few months and if it doesn't work out we'll move it to once a quarter."
The first workshop is set for 8 a.m. on Sept. 10 before the regularly scheduled meeting at 9 a.m.
The commissioners agreed to hold a budget workshop during the week to finalize the budget.
Merchant reminded the board that there is still an opportunity to acquire milled asphalt at no cost to the county; the only cost would be the county going and retrieving it.
Parish suggested they hire someone to go and retrieve the milled asphalt and Goodman suggested that since the county's employees didn't work on Fridays then they should use employees on a Friday to retrieve it.
"It just seems that paying our men overtime would be cheaper than hiring a company," said Goodman.
Board agreed to look into how much was being offered and evaluate the cheapest means of retrieving it.
Goodman also said that the Holmes County District School Board Superintendent Eddie Dixon had sent over a letter for the Board members to sign.
"It's a brief letter stating the Board's support that he wants to take with him to Tallahassee," said Goodman.
The next scheduled meeting of the Holmes County Board of County Commissioners is set for 6 p.m. on Aug. 27.

It will be interesting to watch this. Can someone in the Dallas area drop by and report on how it's going?
While I know there are some parents who will spare no expense when it comes to their children, I'm not sure how many of them are going to sign their kids up for LEGO classes the way they might sign up for swimming lessons or piano lessons.
And then there's the sticker shock. Taking the full year of robotics classes will set you back $1,764.
- Oct 18, 2007, 12:12:00 AM
My friend lives 5min from the LEC. She says people in that area will definitely pay for it. It's a very high income area.

There is a place here that offers LEGO Creations. THe kids learn to build w/ LEGOS in preparation for later NXT courses. It's $90/3 1-hr classes. The NXT courses are $240/8 1.5hr sessions.

The courses we offer at Moraine Valley Community College look like an extreme bargain in this context. Our courses are $99 for 6 or 7 two hour sessions (12-14 hours total).
Our class sizes may be slightly larger than these other sessions (we accept up to 16 per class), but we are still able to run with class sizes as low as 6 or 7 students. Our child to robot ratio is 2:1.
I don't mean this as criticism of these other opportunities - the more options the better in my opinion. I simply want to give some food for thought for others who might want to start their own courses. The major reason we are able to keep our cost low is that we don't pay rent for the facility we use.
So, if you want to offer LEGO courses, think about places that might welcome you for free - schools, park districts, libraries (I'm going to do a few free sessions this December at local libraries), etc. Many of these will have computer labs that you could use. Most also have ready-to-go ways of publicizing your offering also without you needing to pay for that, which will also allow you to keep the cost down.

The region Starkville Rotarians share with 43 other clubs is continuing its focus of helping to bring clean water to people in various parts of Africa.
Bill Boykin of Greenville, the District 6820's water chair, spoke to the local club Monday about the latest effort to rid communities in the east African nation of Malawi of deadly water sources.
Boykin further explained the latest effort after Monday's meeting.
The focus this year is on digging about 25 wells at a cost of about $2,500 per well, Boykin said.
He explained the need by saying people in the villages there dig holes to obtain water which is unclean and leads to a mortality rate of 115 per 1,000 live births for children under age 2.
The rate of death among village populations can be 25 percent a village because of the polluted water, he said.
Starkville Rotarian Zach Rowland also provided a recap after the meeting about last year's effort.
The focus of attention and fundraising in 2010 for District 6820 was in the Ngushishi region of Kenya.
Boykin said the effort district-wide raised more than $20,000, with about $10,000 of it coming from the Starkville Rotary Club.
The effort provided money for pipes to supply water directly to villages, catch basins, metering systems and tanks, Rowland said.
For information, send Boykin an e-mail via email@example.com [3] or call him at (662) 820-0487.

Rocking Chair
In 1942, the collector Peggy Guggenheim sought advice from the architect and designer Frederick Kiesler on how to remodel two shops on West Fifty-seventh Street in Manhattan into a gallery for Surrealist and American art. Kiesler responded with plans for Art of This Century, the now-legendary gallery that became a focal point of the avant-garde. There, paintings were shown without frames, a Surrealist room incorporated curved walls, and pictures were displayed mounted on the ends of baseball bats projecting from the walls. With a nod to Surrealism's freedoms, the gallery's organic table could be tilted or turned upside down, becoming a pedestal to show sculpture, or an easel to display a painting, or a chair shaped to the curve of the seated figure and a companion piece to the rocking chair.

text: Pretty much done, until i can mold it, ghoul. I have to fill the cracks with something, I'm thinking epoxy so that it will seep under and bond the sculpty to the skull but still leave the indent of the crack. Then i have to safely store it until i can get RTV. It looks better up close. I kind of like the burn damage and that'll come through in the casting too. I have a bit more sculpty to use on projects then it's on to oil based clay. It sure won't win any awards but for a first try i think i did okay. I learned a lot that's for sure.

Lack of money.
Also 2000 was a business OS
That was the thinking of a LOT of folks - 2000 = NT 5 = business/corporate OS. However, what got me curious was that - even in NT 5 clothing (remember, the OS through the first two betas was called NT 5 Workstation and NT 5 Server) it included DirectX - a decidedly non-NT thing to do. Why would Microsoft include a gaming-targeted (for the most part) subsystem in their business OS unless it had plans on leveraging that business OS for gaming? Turns out that Microsoft was dead-on - as long as you didn't use a 16-bit installer, your Windows-based games could indeed run on the still-beta Windows 2000 Professional. (At this point, while I had heard about Neptune, I hadn't seen it yet.) I already knew that Microsoft did NOT have plans for another hybrid 9x-style OS, as they had stated - publicly - that 98SE was going to be their last such OS - in a joint press conference by Jim Alchin (then head of Business Operating Systems AKA the NT Group) and Alexander St. John (then Microsoft chief evangelist for DirectX). I had been a beta-tester of 98SE - the joint presser by Alchin and Alex St. John set off the alarums. The fact that it had better performance AND stability than 98SE - let alone ME - on the same hardware (and running the same software) sealed the deal - 98SE would be fired, and replaced by 2000 Professional.

Longer Terms for Board Members and Treasuer
June 17, 2004 12:02PM
Registered: 11 years ago
Posts: 2,119
1. I suggest 2 year terms for Board Members and stagger the terms so that the Board cannot be completely overhauled in one year.
2. I suggest either a lifetime position or at least a 3 year position for Treasurer. I also suggest that this not even be a voted on position. This should be a Board appointed position. There is too much danger and hassle and confusion if you have to change the Treasurer every couple of years.
3. Don't spend all the money in the bank on the PRO and AM and Doubles Tournaments. In fact, I would suggest putting back roughly 10% to 15% every year for expenses and to possibly in the future fund selected SN Tournaments during the year.
4. Pick one person, possibly the Treasurer to run Bag Tags for the year and Fund Raiser Discs for the PRO and AM and Doubles starting in 2005. ( I may even be interested in doing this. )

2. I agree. Term of treasurer hasn't come up at this point, but I agree that it should be an appointed position
3. Right now there is no provision for putting any of the $2 Sn fee or bag tag money in reserve (the SN only means of revenue) We need to round up sponsorship, to take the place of the bag tag money which then could be used for sn expenses (which isn't alot, but i'd like to be able to make banners for the TDs that host SN tournaments among other stuff)
4. If not the treasurer than someone working closely with the treasurer. When the person responsible for the bag tags has xx amount of dollars he send it to the treasurer...

1. LIke John K said...done
2. The Board and the administration of the SNDG is not a year old. A lot of things have been addressed in the past 10 months and there is still more to do. There is a lot of work to be done with the SNDG Account and Treasure. We should all drop to our knees and be thankful the SNDG has a player like John K, our current Treasure and SNDG Chairman of the Board of Directors.
3. I have been talking sponsorship since last fall. It takes a lot of time. I spent this winter and spring setting up the means for sponsorship for our Arkansas State Disc Golf Championship. The means was getting the local radio station and Comcast Cable onboard and let the players use air time to bring in the sponsorship. It worked pretty good and I think with this year's experience we can do better. The same can be done for the SNDG. I pitched it to radio (Clear Channel) and Comcast Cable. Clear Channel and Comcast cover the south. Using the Southern National Majors to showcase the tournament series it will sell. Then the locals could get the local sponsorship with the local Clear Channel stations and the local Comcast Cable company. This would free up the $2 fee and the bag tag money to go into the SNDG treasure for expenses. There was talk talk talk and I asked the talkers to step up and email me and we would get started with Addie heading up the SNDG Advertising and Promotion. I received zero emails. I will pursue this with or without players help. I will pursue it for disc golf and I will pursue it for the SNDG.
4. 4 will fall into line easily after 3.

Got plenty of radio experience (FM) and I'm always willing to help. Been a while since I endeavored in radio, but this sounds like a great opportunity...
