I'm beginning to think I can't go back to closed back headphones for home listening, the music feels too boxed-in. As sharp as the Sony 7506 sound, the upper midrange or treble gets annoying after a while and I go back to the Grados. I dunno. (the Grados are "brighter" than the Sonys but that's not what I'm talking about)
On top of this I bought this small amp I saw in several stores here (can't find ANY reviews).There's a line in and 2 headphone jacks in the back, and a volume control.
So I plug it in the audio out of my PC and I get about a 3X amplification of my signal. No hiss or distortion added and it doesn't color the sound. Now I'm going somewhere and my Grado SR-60's sound to their full potential. Not only that, I can properly EQ them to improve the bass while lowering the itunes pre-amp to make sure nothing gets distorted
I'm thinking my final headphone upgrade choice may be the Grado SR-125's or 225's and return the Sonys
Posted 11 November 2011 - 08:27 AM
I tried those. They didn't impress me and the music sounded muddy with no clarity
Would you say they sounded unnaturally muddy or muffled? These headphones are said to have a natural treble. They don't produce artificially bright frequencies. If your used to listening to Grados then most headphones will sound muffled. Maybe they don't sound open enough?

And also i prefer more open headphones
I do 99% of my music listening on headphones, so i have to make sure to pick ones I really like
I'm set for my portable device with the Shure SE215. No issues with those

Same when I buy a new TV. Lucky I only do that every 5 years
But right now the slightly EQ'ed and amped-up SR-60's sound about right

Music wise 10 years ago I had my MD walkman with a bunch a bulky disks I had to record manually and only held 74 minutes each

I was very interested in MP3 players in the early noughties, but became disappointed when I saw they could only do around 256 MB.
My PC in those days had 8 GB of memory, which was HUGE!.
Posted 11 November 2011 - 10:20 AM
Could you imagine even 10 years ago you would be watching high definition video on a screen bigger then 70 cm?
We really have progressed.
No, (and yes, I saw HD TV more than 25 years ago at an audio video show) and that makes me really happy because now when I put on a blu-ray disc everything feels more 'cinema' . A 60" screen would probably increase that feeling even more. The most amazing thing about progess is that it only costs 999 Euro for having such a giant HD screen in your living room. My old small tube tv (a Philips 82 cm/32") costed a hell of a lot more! Damn! I would never want to go back to those days. Imagine going back the vinyl days!

I thought so before I bought them, but it turns out they do look rather stylishly luxurious. Not that it really matters - they're not usable for the road, and when I'm at home, I don't see them when I have them on. Plus the sound is fabulous.
Posted 12 November 2011 - 08:45 AM
I could always get these headphones, they likely sound good. And there's a special 300$ off
Posted 13 November 2011 - 05:51 AM
well my words is made of fire time to burn
Among all the things I have done in my short and pitiful life, becoming an inside joke on JWFAN is the one I'm the least proud of.
The additional passage was interesting but not really something I would consider absolutely essential.
Posted 13 November 2011 - 05:56 AM
If your gonna get something like that at least get Sennheiser PX-100 or Koss Portapros
Posted 20 November 2011 - 08:39 PM
They cost me 250$ but they sound really nice .
Not a huge, in your face difference compared to the SR-60's (same basic sound and balance) , but the music sounds more polished and refined ("smoother"). The staging is also wider.
In other words ,seems like a nice upgrade from a sound I was already familiar with
Posted 25 November 2011 - 09:22 PM
Jason if you were considering Grado SR-60 these are lightyears better
Posted 16 December 2011 - 02:18 AM
It's the best thing I've found so far and works 100% as described
Posted 30 December 2011 - 01:22 AM

There is no headphone other than buds and in-ears that looks good while walking around town.
That's old-fashioned thinking. It's like saying people that wanna look good must wear contact lenses instead of glasses. Hip people in Paris, London and Milan don't wear in-ears anymore.

Are Kim and Kanye Really Ready to Tie the Knot?
So here's the deal: Rumors have surfaced that Kanye has been shopping for engagement rings for Kim K. And while most of you know of (we're tired of hearing about it too) Kim's epic 72-day marriage to Kris Humphries, her divorce hasn't actually been finalized yet — isn't it a bit too early to be talking marriage, Mr. West? So, how does one approach a third marriage proposal in a tasteful fashion (not that we're saying Kanye or Kim are tasteful)? We've broken the engagement etiquette rules down for these two in case the rumors are true.
1. Take a breather. Even though the celeb duo didn't waste any time starting a courtship after the announcement of the divorce, it's imperative that Kanye waits at least until the papers have been signed before popping the question to Kim. I mean, at least hold off until reruns of the Keeping Up With The Kardashians wedding special are off the air.
2. Go small. After Kim and Kris' nuptials, news outlets reported that very little of the extravagant wedding was actually paid for, instead, it was heavily sponsored by vendors looking to cash-in on a few minutes of fame. If Kanye and Kim (what's up with her going after guys with 'K' names?) are hoping for any shot at normalcy (not that we think they are), they should opt for a small ceremony — read: sans television crews.
3. Get the family on board. While Kim and Kris were dating there were obvious tensions between Kris and the Kardashian sisters. In case you've been living under a rock, here's a tidbit: The Kardashians are a tight-knit family. Ignoring the warning signs, Kim forged ahead with the marriage. This time around, it's important that Kim (and Kanye!) get her family's support.
4. Think twice about registering. By the time Kim's marriage to Humphries had crumbled, the couple hadn't even opened all their wedding gifts. Controversy ignited over what Kim should do with them after the marriage — in the end she decided to donate everything to charity. So, what do you get two filthy-rich celebs, anyway? Since both are well-established adults (and it would be Kim's third marriage), instead of registering, they should request that their guests give a donation to a charity of their choice.

Humbling Ourselves
Contributed by Billy Barton, executive director of Home of Grace (Vancleave, Miss.). Reprinted with permission from the News from Home newsletter.
Our rescue missions have various purposes, but our singular overarching goal is to help men and women come into faith in the Lord. Nothing is more exciting than to see our clients reach out and take His hand. What a privilege we have to witness over and over the miracles that God does in someones heart and life.
He changes men and women, families, neighborhoods, churches, towns, and even a nation and the world. What a thrill for us to be a part.
In a familiar verse, the author of 2 Chronicles admonishes the people of God to seek Him: If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land (2 Chronicles 7:14).
As Christians, we should take a stand, humble ourselves, pray, seek Gods face, and turn from our wicked ways. God will hear us, forgive our sins, and heal our land as we draw close to Him.

I need information about...
Screening means checking for disease in people who don't have any symptoms. Not every type of cancer has guidelines recommending screening--melanoma does. You have a better chance of surviving melanoma if doctors diagnose and treat it early. Early means finding the melanoma when it is thin. A melanoma that is thick (penetrating deeper in the skin) or bleeding is harder to treat than a thin melanoma. The best way to find melanoma early is to have regular skin checkups from a health care provider who is trained to inspect skin. The American Cancer Society recommends regular skin checkups for people over age 20 as part of routine cancer checkups. Even though these skin checkups help increase the chances of finding melanoma early, they don't guarantee that you won't get melanoma or die from it, especially if it's found after you have symptoms.
Health care providers look for simple characteristics of moles or other skin lesions that make them suspect melanoma of the skin. These are called the ABCDs of melanoma.
Asymmetry. This means that the two halves of the mole don't look the same.
Border. With melanoma, the edges of a mole are sometimes blurred or ragged.
Color. Melanomas sometimes have uneven colors. Some have different shades of black, brown, red, pink, white, or blue.
Diameter. This is a measure of the width or length of the melanoma. The diameter of a melanoma is usually greater than that of a pencil eraser, though they can be smaller than this.
Also consider the E in the equation--evolving. It is important to look for changes in moles over time. If you see any changes, make an appointment with you doctor to have the mole checked right away. Not all melanomas look the same. Some have all the ABCD characteristics, while others don't.
These are other symptoms to pay close attention to:
Moles that are tender and itch
Moles that bleed or have a crusty top
Moles that become raised and larger in diameter
You should also learn how to do a skin self-exam and check your own skin, preferably once a month. You should know the pattern of moles blemishes, freckles, and other marks on your skin. Any new moles or changes in moles already present should be reported to a doctor right away.

Roy Nelson wants a rematch with Cormier
FigthHubTV's Marcos Villegas caught up with Roy Nelson, and discussed his loss to Daniel Cormier at UFC 166 last month. Although Cormier outwrestled Nelson (three takedowns to 0 according to FightMetic) and outstruck him by a 74-17 margin, Nelson feels he was outpointed but did not receive an old school beatdown, and wants a rematch.
"I didn't feel like it was a fight, just a good sparring match," says Big Country. "I was back in the gym on Monday."
"I just got out pointed. It's nothing against Daniel. You know, Daniel - excellent game plan, played it to a tee. I just wish I had two more rounds. That's about it. Daniel won that night, and he was the better guy. I'd definitely like to do a rematch. I'd fight anybody that I ever lost to."

Out of Stock
Item # PLZ1124
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Arm Warmers in stock than that.
Pearl Izumi Sun Sleeve $0.00
When we were kids we relished getting the darkest, starkest-looking tan line on our arms; it made us feel that much closer to our pro idols and set us apart from our football - or soccer-playing mates. Now, with our adult knowledge of the damage the sun's rays can do to our skin, we recognize the need for some sorts of protection. The Pearl Izumi Sun Sleeves not only offer UPF 40-rated protection, but they actually keep us cooler in the hot sun than we would be riding with bare arms.
That's because they are made from the Elite Transfer fabric with In-R-Cool technology, which work together to manage moisture as you perspire and provide optimal skin cooling. The In-R-Cool technology used here is the very same used in Pearl Izumi's most advanced jerseys and works to wick rapidly and keep the surface temperature of the fabric down by reflecting the sun's UV rays. Add to this the sun protection that the Sun Sleeves provide, and you will be able to ride all day without having to worry about overheating or caring for sunburned arms in the evening.
Designed to fit like a second skin, the stretchy Sun Sleevesinclude the Direct-Vent mesh on the underside of the arms to help with ventilation, something you will be very happy about on a hot day around 3 o'clock. And if you happen to be out riding as the sun is setting, Pearl Izumi has added reflective elements to help keep you safe.
The Pearl Izumi Sun Sleeves come in White and are available in sizes Small, Medium and Large.
- Hydrophilic Elite Transfer fabric breathes, dries quickly, and wicks moisture efficiently to cool your skin through evaporation
- In-R-Cool technology reflects the sun's rays to lower surface temperatures on the fabric and offer UPF 40+ protection during long rides under clear skies
- Mesh on the inner arm dumps excess heat and moisture quickly as you ride
- Reflective details enhance your visibility to drivers during early morning or evening rides
- Black colorway (depending on inventory) more effectively reflects UV radiation to prevent sun burn
- White colorway (depending on inventory) doesn't absorb as much heat to keep you cooler during longer rides

Comfortable but durability questioned
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I loved the fit and comfort of these sun sleeves from the start and bought a few pairs immediately after my initial trial. I had no complaints until after a month and a half of repeated use, I noticed the forearms had thinned to the point that I wonder if it still offers protection from the sun. You can see through the fabric now with a large patch that is noticeably thinner on both forearms. Not sure what wore out the fabric, the washing method, the sun exposure, friction, etc. They have been washed using a gentle cycle in a protective wash sack and air dried in a sunroom on a clothes line, no dryer used. This happened to the white pair. I'm currently using the black pair to see if it has similar issues. I'm hopeful that it was an isolated occurrence on that one pair of sun sleeves because they have lived up to the hype regarding comfort and breathability. I would give this product a 5 star rating, but because of the thinning issue, I will give an inconclusive 3 star rating until I've tested out my remaining pairs.

Excellent quality and fit...
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I purchased a pair of Pearl iZumi Sun Sleeves in White, size Large. The fabric has great elasticity and stretches snugly onto my arms without slipping. They work very well at protecting my arms from over-exposure to sun while keeping them cool. I use them for my daily 35-mile training rides on my road bike.
It was difficult to determine what size to get. They appear to be available in only small, medium and large (no XL). I'm 6'2" with long arms and the Pearl iZumi measurement chart is confusing. On the Pearl iZumi website it says to measure your arm length from your shoulder to your wrist while your arm is bent at a 90 degree angle at the elbow. The size chart here at Competitive Cyclist does not say to bend the arm. My arm length is 25" when not bent and 26" when bent. Neither length is anywhere near the range listed in the sizing charts. Some better instructions are obviously needed.
My bicep circumference is just under 14 inches (relaxed) and my wrist circumference is just under 8 inches.
The Large size is plenty long enough. In fact, I can pull them all the way up to the hollow above top of my bicep, and they are still long enough to cover my entire wrist at the opposite end. So no skin is exposed outside my riding gloves. As for the circumference, the Large size is very snug on my arms but they are not too snug. However, if you're a body builder with "big guns" (large biceps) you might find them a bit tight. Sadly, an extra large size does not appear to be available.
I've very happy with the quality and fit of these sun sleeves and highly recommend them.
One of the better sun sleeves out there
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have been wearing sun sleeves for yrs and I find the newer Pearl Izumi to be lighter and more effective than some of the others I have owned. They are certainly lighter then the old Assos sun sleeves. I wear the medium and at 6'2, they are plenty long.
Pearl Izumi is known for it's "american" sizing" so at 6'1-6'2, 175 lbs, I am not their target market. That said, the medium size fits great. I only use them on the road bike so white is less of an issue with regards to cleanliness. They certainly beat covering your arms with sun screen and they do a much better job!
Very cool in hot sun
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
Pleasantly surprised by how cool they feel in the hot Florida sun compared to a long sleeve bike shirt. Easy to put on and off. Feel a little tight on upper arm but that's better than loose and sliding down.
heard about these so decided to try some as the price is reasonable. Wow. An odd sensation at first as it feels almost like they are cooling your arms more than being bare. But they work well and there's no more fumbling with sunscreen and becoming human fly paper on long rides. I have several pairs.
Slight preference for the black as the whites get very grimy quickly. And if you are super hot, you can wet them with water and it helps a great deal.
Combined with a castelli mesh based I can go out in 10 degrees more heat than before.
Keeps cool
These really keep you cool on a hot day!
Does the white version have UPF 40 as well...
Does the white version have UPF 40 as well as the black version? I've found differing information.

Big 12 Conference – One True Champion
|When referring to the Big 12 Conference, please remember the conference name (which is a registered trademark) should be listed as follows:
Big 12
The following should NOT be used in text when referencing the Big 12:
The Big 12 enters its 19th year as it continues to promote the strength and success of one of the nation's premier athletic conferences under the direction of third-year commissioner Bob Bowlsby.
TCU and West Virginia joined the league on July 1, 2012 and became the Big 12's first additions since inception, joining Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas Tech.
With 10 members, the Big 12 remains as the only major conference in the nation to determine its champions in all sports directly on the field of play with a full round-robin schedule.
The Conference's hard work ethic and strong values have translated to enormous success in its first 18 years. In the fall of 2013, former Texas Tech track and field student-athlete Ifeatu Okafor was named the Big 12's first NCAA Woman of the Year. Texas became the 12th league volleyball squad to advance to the national semifinals while three teams placed in the top 15 at the NCAA Division I Men's and Women's Cross Country Championships. Big 12 football placed two teams for the sixth time in what was the final season of the BCS with Oklahoma defeating two-time defending national champion Alabama in the Sugar Bowl.
The 2014 winter and spring seasons were just as successful as Oklahoma claimed the Big 12's first NCAA Women's Gymnastics Championship and 14 student-athletes claimed individual national titles. Texas women's indoor and outdoor track & field, UT men's swimming & diving, Oklahoma men's tennis and Oklahoma State men's golf finished as NCAA runners-up. Baylor softball was one of the last four teams standing at the Women's College World Series and the Big 12 placed a nation's-best four baseball squads in the NCAA Super Regionals and three in the College World Series.
Since it began competition in 1996-97, the league can boast of 53 NCAA team titles and 552 individual national championships.
The Big 12 lays claim to five Heisman Trophy winners since 1996 and has had a finalist in 12 of its 18 seasons – tied for the most of any league. Twenty athletes have earned major individual awards in football in the past six campaigns. Overall, more than 1,900 student-athletes have earned All-America recognition in the past seven years alone.
Through its first 18 years, the Big 12 has claimed a team national championship in 17 of the sports it sponsors. The Conference finished the BCS era ranked tied for second with seven appearances in the National Championship Game. League squads combined to lead the nation in women's basketball attendance 15 consecutive years and the Big 12 is the only conference to surpass the one-million mark in season attendance – doing so six times. In men's basketball, the league has had seven teams earn NCAA bids twice in the past five years and every coach has guided a team to the NCAA Tournament, including a nation's-best six coaches that have led teams to the Final Four. During the last 10 years a total of 32 NCAA trophies have been hoisted by Big 12 institutions, with at least one national crown won in all but one year for the Conference, including 17 consecutive seasons.
The Big 12 and its member institutions are committed to a competitive environment where sportsmanship and fair play take center stage. Whether on the field, in the classroom, or within the community, the student-athletes, administrators, coaches and game officials of the Big 12 support the highest ideals in sportsmanship.
National academic accolades have always been strong in the Big 12. Danielle Robinson (Oklahoma) and Sam Acho (Texas) were selected to receive Today's Top VIII Awards – one of the NCAA's top honors. It recognizes student-athletes who completed their athletic eligibility during 2010-11 for success on the fields and courts, in the classroom and in the community. In the last three seasons, four student-athletes were recipients of the NCAA Elite 89 Award with pitcher John Curtiss (Texas) picking up the latest honor in the spring of 2014. The honor showcases individuals who have reached the pinnacle of competition at the national championship level, while also achieving the highest academic standard among their peers.
In its short history, the Big 12 has had 571 Academic All-America recipients, averaging more than 30 each season. Big 12 student-athletes have shown commitment to their studies by earning numerous individual academic recognitions. Eleven times in the past nine years a league athlete has garnered the top academic honor for their respective sport, including Frances Silva (West Virginia) for soccer and Gabe Ikard (Oklahoma) for football in 2013.
The Big 12 can take pride in other stories that combine on and off the field success. Patience Knight (Texas Tech) was the recipient of the Honda Inspiration Award in 2008, given to an outstanding female college athlete who overcomes adversity to excel in her sport. She was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in 2007, but rebounded to win All-America honors at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships. Oklahoma State women's basketball was the inaugural recipient of the "Together We R" Team Award in 2012, recognizing programs that have strived to succeed in the face of adversity. Following a devastating tornado south of Oklahoma City just before the Big 12 Baseball Championship in 2013, several league baseball teams along with other student-athletes, coaches and former Conference players contributed help in a variety of ways. Plus, the Conference contributed $200,000 to the relief efforts.
Competitive excellence, scholarship and sportsmanship are all equal components of the Big 12 philosophy. All-Big 12 teams and Academic All-Big 12 squads are recognized for each sport at the end of their respective seasons. At the end of each academic year, the Conference honors its top male and female student-athletes with the Big 12 Athlete of the Year and Big 12 Sportsperson of the Year awards.
Institutions can also nominate student-athletes for the prestigious Dr. Prentice Gautt Postgraduate Scholarships. A total of 341 scholars have received nearly $2.3 million in postgraduate financial aid through the first 18 years of the program.

Gives Address at Elks Flag Warnes of Russia and Calls for Universal Military Training Gen. Emil M. Podeyn, delivering the principal address at the an-nual Flag Day exercises of the Freeport Lodge of Elks in the lodge room Thursday night said the United .States seemed to be at war with Russia, and that it must win or lose the American way of life. He added that con-ditions today paralleled those of 1937 with the Army and Navy stripped of their effectiveness and insisted that the United States must maintain a large military establishment or universal military training. Gen. Podeyn said the President's Commission on Universal- Military Training found the great question it had to answer was "How im-portant is universal training to the security of the United States and the peace of the World," and came to the conclusion that, it was not only important but "essential." The general went into details in discussing the American Bill of Rights, and concluded by consider-ing the President's Commission on Atomic Energy ftnd Its work. He said- the commission -^u^Vestlnijited rthe^-crniitfetrxStates'' monopoly^' <m atomic expdosives would be broken by about 1951. and that after 1955 an a tonic attack in force could be made against this country. "The signal for the start of a war against us will be a large-scale, long distance onslaught with atomic explosives against our principal centers of population and production" he said the report continued. "The first day's attack might lay waste to 12 of our major cities," Gen. Podeyn said, citing a high ranking Army of-ficer. "We would have chaos, with communications disrupted, mil-lions of persons sick, wounded and dying, and civil disorder and sabotage prevailing." He predicted such a war would be short and America would have to bt ready to react in the first 60 days rather than the 12th, 18th. or 24th month as in past wars. To prevent such a catastrophe, Gen. Podeyn recommended that the United States provide an air-borne striking force of profession-al highly trained troops armed with the most advanced weapons, and "equal in importance" a system of universal military train-ing so that all American youths on reaching 18, or completing high school would receive, six months I of basic training and an additional' six months^' in college or special units of advanced training. j Exalter Ruler 'Gordon H. Meyer i presided, and Karl A. Reich pro-1 vided the music. A feature was the massing of the colors of numerous ppsts_ of the American Legion 'and Veterans of Foreign Wars and their auxiliaries. Wil-liam Clinton Stey Post buglers sounded "To the Colors." Mayor Cyril C. Ryan delivered a brief address of welcome, Karl Anton, as acting chaplain, offered prayer and the picturesque "History of the Flag" was conducted by P.E.R. Milford F. -VanRiper.

You are developing a number of tells the greatest one of which is to interpret other people's voting patterns in the same way you would place yours - just because the elves vote for you in the 1st round, doesn't mean they're elves any more than you were. Unless you have been PMing Crys since the 2nd day (and if she was about to read them) you were taking a huge gamble on which way Crys would jump. The logical votes for innocents were always Crys and Bikkit. You may have seen Bikkit's mistake as a godsend, but in an innocent's eyes (or eflie Crys' eye if she had been one), you were a total prat revealing yourself and worse for using all your votes on what amounted to a hunch. Anyway this is all moot as we don't yet know how Crys would have acted, but unless you'd already started chipping away at her earlier on we probably won't know now. If I had been the one protected on night 1 and an innocent I would have been totally at a loss as to why you were being so lippy about getting rid of two people you suspected when you could have just voted for one and blocked the other anyway without breaking cover. Doing it that way we wouldn't have turned on you and probably (given the circs) have ended up both voting for Bikkit anyway as we knew Crys was no threat to us at all. It was Bikkit or you who were the marks all along in the 2nd phases. Now it's too late of course and, if Crys was impressed by the histrionics, you actually got your result the hard way by being totally reckless and illogical - but only if Crys trusted you enough. :lol
Bikkit - yes another game if people want it. I made this following suggestion before we got in post mortem mode so you may have missed it -
Jan Van Quirm wrote:If in another few days anyone wants another game I'll happily run it again. I have one already prepped over on Worlds (a pantomime theme not Discworld), but not enough players and, as some of those who have signed up are also on here, we could get that going over here easily enough. Or we can do a Discworld one again

Mine have worked fine so far. The effective field of view is not as good as the original equipment because of the shape. On the other hand, these mirrors are a lot easier to adjust than the original equipment!

DESTIN — The line to Jim 'N Nick's Bar-B-Q booth was steady and long Thursday night, but those who braved it were rewarded with a full sampler plate that included ribs and a roll.
As the three-time winner of the finest barbecue on the Emerald Coast, the line wasn't a surprise to General Manager John Dupuis. He attributed the restaurant's success to its quality ingredients and slow-cooked food.
"It's all from scratch, just like your mom used to make," Dupuis said.
Dozens of businesses voted for by Daily News readers in the Finest on the Emerald Coast competition treated hundreds of fans to samples of their fare, discounts and other goodies at HarborWalk Village in Destin.
See a photo gallery of the event. >>
Brittany Hewitt, who was at the event with her mom, Rebecca Wilcox, said it was great to see so much of the community out and supporting each other.
"It's kind of like a small celebration," Hewitt said.
For Susan Kessler, the celebration gave her a chance to enjoy some of her favorite businesses and learn about some she hadn't seen before.
"They've really done a good job with this," Kessler said as she looked around the busy HarborWalk.
The Cakemaster's Bakery booth drew folks with its brownies, cakes and other sweets. Cakemaster's has been named the finest bakery for the past three years, said William McLoone, an assistant baker.
"To be that engrained in the community is an honor," McLoone said.
He attributed the bakery's popularity to its rule of making everything from scratch.
"You can taste the difference," McLoone said.
Passer-by Lynne Whittemore agreed. She said she has been going to the cake shop since it opened, and was happy to see it and other old and new favorites at the Finest event.
"It's great seeing some of the new businesses and seeing some of old and established businesses getting appreciated and recognized," Whittemore said.

Our Hotel Resort organizes tours to the Corcovado National Park, at less than 20 minutes driving from Dominical.
The Corcovado National Park was declared a protected area in 1975. With an area of 54,538 hectares of land making it the largest home to many animals. 65% of the biodiversity of Costa Rica and 2% of global biodiversity is situated in this park. Corcovado has been considered the Third Best Park in the world, by National Geographic.
In the park you can observe a great variety of birds such as the Scarlet Macaw, the Kettle Crest, the White Hawk, and many others, plus up to 4 species of monkeys, snakes, sloths, coatis and protected endangered species such as jaguars, pumas, crocodiles, tapirs, and the poisoned dart frog, harpy eagle etc … This is one of the few places in Costa Rica to observe the squirrel monkey.
Overall Corcovado is the Best Place to observe Wild Life in Costa Rica.
We depart early in the morning between 7:30 a.m. and 8 a.m. The meeting point and departure point is The Marino Ballena National Park in Uvita. From Dominical it takes about 20 minutes (18km) to get there by car. (Transport is not included)
Then you will take a comfortable boat ride to Corcovado National Park. We will enter the Pacific Ocean, passing very close to places with a fascinating view such as: Isla Ballena, Las tres hermanas, Isla Violines, Bahía Drake y La Reserva Marenco. The boat ride will take about an hour and a half to reach Corcovado.
During the tour you will see birds (the brown piquero, pelicans, gulls and southern frigates) etc … Also, depending on the season we hope to have the opportunity to observe whales including: humpback, the killer, the Pilot whales, turtles and of course dolphins.
When we get to the park our bilingual naturalist guide will lead you on a 3-hour walking tour of a pristine primary forest. The hike ends at the ranger's station where we will serve a delicious picnic lunch surrounded by a rich natural atmosphere.
Return time: between 4:00p.m. and 4:30 p.m.
Costs of the tour: $135.00 per person

In our first installment, we took you through the process of removing our old, tired, and not terribly exciting small-block. We also showed you how we prepped our '69's engine bay for the installation of a new Tri-power EFI big-block.
Part 2 was a step-by-step build plan showing how, with the help of a select list of high-performance suppliers, we assembled this 21st century Rat motor.
This month, we'll install all the new upgrades we've chosen, along with the main ingredients of our project—specifically, the engine, a super-duty Gearstar 4L60E transmission, and a made-to-order, bulletproof rearend from Precision Corvette Differential.
There's a learning curve with every "first-ever" build, and it quickly became apparent that our C3's stock automatic transmission didn't have a chance of handling the new big-block's output. So we switched to a Gearstar Level 4 electronically controlled 4L60E/four-speed automatic. It has an 11-inch, custom-stalled, full-billet, lock-up torque converter, and it's built to handle up to 650 hp and 600 lb-ft of torque. Follow along now as we find out what it takes to get a transmission to Level 4 capability.
A Complete Trans-Formation
Gearstar Performance Transmissions says it "custom builds your transmission to order." Fortunately, that's a fact and not just a slogan. Much as you would when having a bespoke suit made, you'll speak directly to one master tech, who will then build your transmission—based on your specific requirements—from start to finish. The journey to building a Level 4/4L60E starts with qualifying the case, then high-pressure washing and bead-blasting it. It's then re-washed, re-inspected, and painted.
The reassembly process begins with a master overhaul kit with Kolene steels and Raybestos racing frictions. Gearstar uses a carbon- fiber, super-wide 2-4 band that utilizes 100 percent of the available surface area. Two valvebody-reprogramming kits are used to improve shift quality and durability, and all of the internal electrical parts are replaced with updated components. A complete bushing kit; new, heavy-duty Torrington bearings; and new thrust washers are also installed.
To handle the additional torque, Gearstar uses a high-capacity pump with a hardened rotor and vanes. The input drum is hardened and reinforced with a billet sleeve to greatly increase strength, and the clutch drum is also modified, allowing it to tolerate higher rpm levels. Additional clutches and steels are added, which boosts clutch capacities by 30 percent. The Level 4/4L60E also incorporates a fully rollerized planetary gearset that provides enhanced durability and greatly reduces power-robbing drag. The four-pinion OE planetaries are replaced with hardened five-pinion steel planetary gearsets.
This Level 4/4L60E is one of the most flexible fully electronic transmission packages available, allowing us to completely customize shift timing, shift feel, and lock-up application. The bottom line is that every part of the transmission is brought up to super-duty specs so it can handle the power and deliver years of trouble-free service. And Gearstar guarantees every transmission it sells. Welcome to Level 4.
Supporting Mods
In addition to the transmission, we needed to address a number of items that, upon closer inspection, didn't look up to the task at hand. The first thing we did was treat ourselves to the beauty and durability of powdercoating. There's a whole list of powdercoating shops in the Atlanta area where we live, but the name that kept coming up was Miller's Powder Coating. That's probably because Bill Miller is a true hot rod and motorcycle enthusiast and has done powdercoating work for virtually every car and bike club in the state.
Once we had our upper and lower control arms coated, we were hooked. We ended up powdercoating the entire front suspension, the trans crossmember, the rear-diff crossmember, and a few other odds and ends. Miller's can even powdercoat your entire chassis in virtually any color you'd like.
Now that our chassis was cleaned and painted, and our front suspension powdercoated, we were loath to reinstall the stock power-assist slave cylinder. It's always leaked, and we were told that a new stock-replacement unit would end up in the same condition in just a few months. The best remedy was to upgrade to a new Borgeson power-steering box. It offers better road feel, a quicker turning ratio, and eliminates the slave cylinder completely. The Borgeson kit is complete and includes the hoses, lines, and a new rag joint as well. The installation was straightforward and, best of all, uneventful.
