Desperate fan requesting meet and greet...
Everyone I'm sure requests or wishes they could meet the band in person. Many times in the past Korn have arranged Meet and Greets before certain shows.
I will be going to see all 4 UK mainland shows next year, marking the 10th year since I first saw the band. I can't say enough how much it would mean to me to meet the band at one of those shows. A friend of mine in Norway got to meet the band and I have always been so jealous of him, considering that I have stuck by the band through thick and thin and seen them a total of 8 times. Infact, 3 years ago I travelled the length of the UK and watched the band perform in 4 different venues in the same week. next year I'll be travelling to Cali with my wife and will be visiting the bands hometown, Bakersfield.
Please, all I am asking is for a message to be passed to the band...Please arrnage for meet and greets...PLEASE!
Faithfully, Doug

Re: Desperate fan requesting meet and greet...
You can meet the band. I'm pretty sure you would need to purchase a VIP package offered through this site, once they become available for the show you want. So you can meet them...just for a price.
Don't think they offer free passes anymore through Korn.com like they used to.
Re: Desperate fan requesting meet and greet...
Thanks for the info. After much deliberation, I have decided to go ahead and buy one of the VIP passes. It's not something I would normally do, but I absolutely have to meet them.
Re: Desperate fan requesting meet and greet...
good luck, message me to tell me how it goes

Not something my husband and I would normally do, either, but we're glad we did!
Re: Desperate fan requesting meet and greet...
I've met JD & Munky after shows. I met JD at Plymouth just waited outside the car park for what seemed like ages and finally JD came out and had signed autographs. Then at Southampton i just hung around at the venue and saw Munky arrive by himself. It was kinda funny to watch as there were kids waiting at the main doors and munky keep looking over expecting them to see him but they didn't, i just watched from a distance to shy to go talk to him! Then after the show they each had their own tour bus so basically just hung around, Fieldy walked straight passed me and a crowd of people and no one stopped him. I met Munky outside his tour bus had photos and brief conversation. Then later saw JD walk to his tour bus but he wouldn't come out and meet the 8 people that we're still waiting for him. Some Psyco jesus lookalike came out and told us he was working on tunes for the new cd and couldn't disturb his artistic flow. Which i felt was a tad lame as it was really late and there was only a handful of us left. But as the jesus psyco said at least id met Munky! So hope they come out at Birmingham, I'l no doubt be the only late 30's groupie!!

On any machine that gives you the amount of calories burnt, is the calorie count actual or approximation based on weight / effort?
If it is an approximation, any idea on what would be the average +/- error range? Or is it too negligible to even consider it even when using it for 1000 calories?
On any machine that gives you the amount of calories burnt, is the calorie count actual or approximation based on weight / effort?
It's an approximation based on some formulas. It assumes muscle/fat based off of simple BMI calculations (which is not always typical), and depending on the speed/intensity predicts what an average person at your body weight would be burning based.
More advanced formulas that you'll find in your heart rate monitors take into consideration your heart rate to fine tune the intensity. It still considers what you tell it your weight is.
All that said, it is a useful approximation to judge the relative effectiveness of an exercise for burning calories.
It's an estimate (based on standard-issue formulae) of total calories burned during the period you are on the machine. The key word here is total calories; that is, you might typically burn 90% of what the readout shows with your basic metabolism (i.e. laying on the couch). The readout doesn't specify what percentage is specifically due to your activity on that machine.
The brutal truth is that there are not very many people physically capable of burning 1,000 calories due to the activity alone in one session.

I must admit that I didn't much care for UA when I first read it--because I thought then, and to some extent still believe, that Terry tried to put too much in the book. But after reading and re-reading the book, I've come to several (possibly heretical) conclusions.
First, this IS NOT A BOOK ABOUT FOOTBALL (either in the Disc or this world)! Terry is dealing with a society that has become vicious although it teeters on the edge of being moribund. Thus, everything is about "showing your colors" and not with any understanding of what this has led to. What was presumably a reasonable sport at some earlier time (even prior to Likely Senior's death), and teams tried to play the game and win, but not by seeing which team could deliberately injure or kill the other teams players. And this is one of the reasons Vetinari wants something done about it--the mob violence of the game has spilled into the streets, and is disrupting the smooth running of AM--something Vetinari will not tolerate.
To some degree it is a book about class (or neighborhood) assumptions which have little or no basis in reality. The UU team would have been hopeless had they stayed under the supervision of Ponder Stibbons (who takes the credit for the team, even though he never understands it and can't coach). The rout would have been all the worse because as it becomes clear (especially after the introduction of the new ball) plus the fact that combined team playing against UU is composed of the most vicious players on all the other teams with a few exceptions. Andy and his mates represent the kind of mindless and savage bullying that Vetinari wants to get rid of.
But the central and most important character in Unseen Academicals, I think, is Mr. Nutt--who transforms himself and those around him. He serves to open the eyes of a number of the characters (notably Glenda, Trev, Jools, and perhaps Lady Margolotta, to the wrongness of their long-held assumptions about themselves and others.
Nutt, when we first meet him, is working as a candle dribbler at the University and dealing with those who (like Andy) are bullies by nature and habit. But Nutt hasn't come to recognize his own worth at this point and lets himself be bullied and used by almost everyone. But he begins to show his innate worth when he takes over the "coaching" of the team and uses all sorts of radical new ideas which would probably have worked even better against a normal team. One of the striking points he teaches them is that the team must work together, that the point of the game is for the team to score the most goals--not to see who on the team can kick the ball the most times. What becomes quite clear is that neither Ridcully nor Stibbons understand the game or what Vetinari is trying to accomplish.
And amusing as his pedantic learning is (Terry is so fond of parodying German scholarship), Nutt is able to psychoanalyze Trev and get him to deal with his father's death and his own sense of inferiority. Without Nutt, furthermore, there would never have been the union of Trev and Jools. Nutt knows perfectly well that Glenda will have to "translate" the poem he wrote as Trev to Jools. As he tells Glenda later, he actually wrote it for her (with a tip of the hat to Andrew Marvell's "To His Coy Mistress"). And in trying to help Nutt, Glenda comes to know (with help from contact with those who have brought dwarf high fashion to AM) that she is indeed "in the crab bucket". Both she and Nutt can climb out of their old assumptions if they want enough to do so.
Finally, through Glenda & Vetinari, Lady Margolotta is forced to acknowledge that orcs were created and used by men--they are therefore not responsible for what they were forced to do. Nor are they innately evil. This is driven home (and leaves Lady M speechless) when Nutt says he will go "civilize the remaining orcs", but who is she going to send to civilize the humans.
I know I'm given to long posts, so I'll stop now and let anyone who wants comment on this. I started this as a new thread because the old one deals with two books, is (in my opinion) full of utter nonsense which prevented any sensible discussion of UA. So, if you agree with me (or don't)--here's a chance to comment.

My "quilt" closet:
It's a tiny weird closet in right outside my bedroom and STUFFED with mostly quilts. Plus there are some in my buffet:
And I won't even show you the tubs in the garage…yes the garage. And this doesn't even account for the quilts being used around our house…which is a lot. Gulp. I have a lot of quilts. I always feel a tinge of guilt when I start another one….like why in the world do I keep making these? But… I love making them, and honestly its more about enjoying the process than having the finished quilt. If all I wanted was a quilt then by golly I'd go buy me one (this one to be exact). So here's to more quilts…and feeling a little guilty but doing it anyways. And to eating a whole pack of donut holes…and not feeling guilty at all.

The bx_saturator belongs to the new "Brainworx Rock´n´Roll line" of creative plugins. Technical excellence for the creative musician and engineer.
Natural sound. In your face.
This is how it all started: I remember sitting in a studio in Russia a few years ago, producing an album featuring James LaBrie (of "Dream Theater") and running into a serious problem with one of the mixes we had to finish. The only way to solve it was to use M/S technology, and we went nuts to setup an M/S EQ in the analog mixing room, but somehow we did and it worked just great. "I wished there was a plug-in EQ with M/S features…"
When I came back to Germany I started the layout of the concept that would eventually become the bx_digital V1 plugin and the bx_1 analog EQ later on.
Luckily enough I was able to find the right people at that time to turn the idea into our first BX plugin within a few months only. By now I have a very talented and motivated team around me, and BX has gone a long way ever since.
We hope you'll enjoy the info and the tools you will find on our site, and we would like to say thank you to everybody out there for your continuing support.

What better place than the interactive portion of the South by Southwest festival to think of innovative methods to let people charge phones?
The latest from entrepreneurs, investors, and cutting-edge digital taste makers at South by Southwest.
Reporters' notebook: The annual technology, film and music confab showed us that brands have money to blow, and a tiny app can still make a name for itself when the tech industry converges on Austin, Texas.
With throngs of people running around from event to event during the South by Southwest festival, there's bound to be some dying phones. Luckily -- from Saint Bernard dogs to solar gas pumps -- there's no shortage of ways to solve that problem.
The tech industry will descend on Austin, Texas, starting March 13 for the annual music, film and interactive festival known as South by Southwest. Here's why its organizers now call Twitter -- a standout success at the event eight years ago -- an "albatross."
Subscription streaming service Rhapsody will let subscribers share entire tracks on Twitter and anyone can listen to the song in a tweet -- a first for the social platform.
At South by Southwest, HBO creates an interactive installation where "Game of Thrones" fans can take portraits in the Iron Throne and play a game that lets them hone their sword-wielding skills.
The world's largest restaurant chain is in turnaround mode. It's looking to the tech industry -- and role models like Google -- as it searches for a good jump start. First stop: South by Southwest.
First it was video, then it was packages. Now a new trend is emerging with drone use: humanitarian relief.
Astro Teller, head of the search giant's Google X research lab, talks about Google's missteps with Glass -- and beyond.

Why I Teach
During my classes, I foster an environment that promotes the active involvement of my students. I believe that for individuals to learn and retain new knowledge, they must apply that knowledge in practical situations. Then, the student can begin to fully understand the concepts that are being discussed in class.
Teaching is the best "job" since you are facilitating high performance individuals to achieve their dreams. St. Edward's focuses on the development of students at the intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual levels. What could be more satisfying than participating in an individual's growth process?

In the last decade, a cornucopia of collectible Corvettes has sailed past the auction block. Among these Cars, there have been plenty of excellent examples to choose from that any connoisseur would be proud to call his or her own. From nicely restored '53-'62 First Generation roadsters to '63-'67 classic midyears, '68-'74 big-block Stingrays, and even Fourth-, Fifth-, and Sixth-Gen ZR-1s, ZR1s, Z06s, and Grand Sports, the Corvette hobby is filled to its fiberglass brim with collectible-and sometimes very expensive-Cars.
Dollar figures aside, the 2000-2010 Corvette auction (and private sale) marketplace saw an argosy of top-tier Cars go on sale. It's easy to determine which ones were the most expensive, but the question of which ones were the most significant to the Corvette community as a whole is a much more subjective matter.
To learn that answer, we contacted three Corvette-industry experts and asked them to look at Corvette sales since the turn of the millennium (2010 included). We wanted to know which 10 Cars they each felt constituted the most significant sales in the last decade, without regard for seller, sales price, or any personal affiliation they might have with the vehicle.
Meet Our Experts
Category 1: Unanimous Decision
(Listed in order of sales price.)
Requirement: In this category are the Cars all three of our experts picked as "a most significant sale in the last decade." (Note: The experts were not allowed to see each other's lists and had to formulate their Top 10 based solely upon their own criteria, excluding price.)
Car: '62 Gulf Oil Race Car
Price: $1.485 million
Sold By: Gooding & Company (August 2008)
Terry L. Michaelis: It's a great historical Car for me personally because I sold it in the '70s for a few hundred dollars as a "thought to be" old drag Car out of my boneyard. Oh my! What a few decades and doing one's research means to significant Corvettes.
Dana Mecum: This is a very significant Car because it is a Dr. Dick Thompson Car that holds a lot of credibility. Thompson, who was known as "The Flying Dentist," drove the Car in the 1962 SCCA-A Production Class, where it finished First in its class a dozen times. It's also got a number of cool options, including an original Motorola two-way radio that let the driver communicate with his pit crew while on the track.
Ian Kelleher: When it comes to important Corvette sales of the last decade, this example nearly tops the list in terms of value, thanks to a wonderful provenance and race history, which saw it surpass its pre-sale estimate when sold in 2008. Delivered to Yenko's dealership for the Gulf Oil racing team, this example was successfully campaigned by Dr. Dick Thompson in the '62 SCCA-A production class, recording 12 first-in-class victories from 14 races-including at both Daytona and Sebring-to claim the season A-Production Championship. At the end of the 1963 season, it was dismantled and sold as a street Car, ultimately becoming the daily driver of a college student, before being discovered, reunited with its racing parts, and returned to race-ready condition. Its winning pedigree, combined with a fully-documented history and a string of awards, including induction into the Bloomington Gold Hall of Fame, all contributed to its strong sales results and make it deserving of its place on this significant sales list.

YIELD: Makes 8 to 12 servings
In small bowl, combine raisins and rum. Let stand until raisins plump, about 1 hour. Drain, discarding rum, and set aside.
Position rack in middle of oven and preheat to 350°F. Lightly butter bundt pan, then dust with flour, knocking out excess.
In large mixing bowl or bowl of electric mixer, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Add brown and granulated sugars, butter, eggs, and vanilla. Using electric mixer, beat on high speed, scraping down sides of bowl with rubber spatula as needed, until batter is pale and smooth, about 3 minutes for handheld mixer or 2 minutes for standing mixer. Stir in apples, pecans, ginger, and raisins. Spoon into prepared pan and smooth top.
Bake until wooden pick or skewer inserted in center of cake comes out clean and cake just shrinks from sides of pan, about 1 hour. Cool cake in pan on rack 10 minutes, then invert and unmold onto rack and cool completely. (Cake can be made up to 3 days ahead and stored at room temperature, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap.)
Just before serving, sift confectioner's sugar over cake. Serve accompanied by eggnog.
Test-Kitchen Tips Even if your bundt pan is nonstick, it's a good idea to butter and flour it to help the cake unmold smoothly. Golden Delicious apples are sweet and hold their shape nicely when cooked. Do not substitute Granny Smith apples in this recipe, as they are too tart and have a gray color when baked.

Putting a different body on an automotive chassis is a time-honored technique, dating back to the first cars ever produced. These early vehicles had wooden coaches, followed by sheetmetal bodies bolted to wooden frames. Henry Ford even experimented with a plastic body made from soybeans. Of course, the Corvette was the first production car to have a fiberglass outer skin. As composite technology advanced, so did the lamination quality, with sheet molding compound (SMC) replacing the old-school resin-and-glass layup starting with the C4 model in 1984. Later, high-tech materials such as carbon-fiber were introduced.
What's the point of this brief history of car bodies? Well, Corvette owners with a creative bent have never been reluctant to customize the shape of their cars, with the 'glass body material simplifying the process. Initially, these changes consisted of grafting on wider fender flares to make room for bigger racing tires, along with various aero pieces for more downforce. This trend quickly evolved into more personal and extensive expressions, albeit not always in the best of taste (Corvette Summer, anyone?).
One of the most famous Corvette body conversions of all time was the black '72 Daytona Spyder that appeared on the Miami Vice TV series. Created by Tom McBurnie to fit on a 1980 Chevy Corvette C3, it prompted lawsuits from Enzo Ferrari, who sought to protect his design from replication. Actor Don Johnson's ride was ultimately blown to pieces in the premiere episode of Season Three, after which Ferrari donated a couple of '86 Testarossas as replacements.
But we digress. All this background basically illustrates the versatility of the Corvette for various enhancements and embellishments. To that end, we've gathered a bevy of bodies beautiful-some intended as tributes to legendary Corvette racers, others as individual expressions of creativity. Many of the companies also offer various upgrades that take performance to a whole new level. In other cases, you can have a high-performance, specialty-constructed vehicle that uses Corvette components on a custom frame. Whatever your taste or inclination, there's something for you here (but no soybeans, sadly).
Projex Motors PC-3
Projecting an entirely different persona
Even though a number of vehicles have served as platforms for various body-conversion projects, the one that offers the most promise is America's sports car. After all, the Corvette's performance is undisputed, and prices of certain models have been dropping like a stone in recent years. These fundamental features make the new Projex PC-3 an appealing new entry, as it represents an attractive and high-quality body conversion on the capable C4 chassis.
What made Projex pursue this particular platform? The firm's founders, Richard Graham and Evan Greenberg, have a long history of producing fiberglass sculptures and other objets d'art for Las Vegas casinos, but it was more than just their facility with fiberglass that led them to this project.
The principals of Projex favored a gentleman's touring machine that would convey a certain "quiet style, like a good wine-bold, but not arrogant." An Italian flavor came to mind, but this would not be a slavish copy that would invite the wrath of trade-dress attorneys (as did Tom McBurnie's faux Daytona). Instead, Projex insisted on creating something unique, incorporating multiple design styles.
Once the specifics of the PC-3 were finalized, Projex decided on two packages. The Basic Panel Kit ($9,995) consists of 11 major components, including the nose, hood, doors, rockers, vents, and rear clip. For an extra $2,000, the Enhanced Car Kit adds headlight bezels and covers, along with a front grille, a windshield-frame cover, and interior console trim. These components are designed to fit C4s from '84 to '92, but not the later '93 to '96 models. Turnkey models are available, and a roadster version is in the works.

Mrs. John Haskins (née Hannah Upham)
Joseph Badger, a self-taught house painter turned artist, was a popular portraitist of middle-class Bostonians during the 1750s. Badger worked in a modest style, characterized by a simple palette of blues and browns and a sparing use of paint. This portrait of Hannah Haskins was most likely commissioned as a pendant pair with that of her husband, John Haskins, at the left. Mrs. Haskins followed the Congregationalist faith while her husband was a devout Episcopalian, and on Sundays they led separate contingents of their children to their respective churches. Though the staid appearance of the portraits may be a result of Badger's limited training, the style suits the pious couple.

That was the question posed by Maple Fleet Services recently to the logistics fraternity. The answer that came back showed that while security professionals often work within carefully crafted procedures for sealing their logistics fleet, they are let down by the use of paper, plastic or metal tie products often used purely on an up front cost basis. These solutions can leave the trailers they are used on exposed to higher risks of asset loss. (more…)

We use our gardens for a variety of reasons. Some of us take full advantage of the backyard and allocate space for a vegetable garden, include an in-ground pool, and use an open area for summer parties. Others just use the backyard to grow flowers and include a few resin garden statues as decor, whereas some folks opt for turning the green space behind the home into a Victorian-themed garden replete with a fine display of stunning classic garden statuary. No matter how you decide to decorate or use the garden, certain sculpture combinations will provide an additional degree of depth and emotion.
Solemn, thought provoking sculptures such as the Monteverde Angel Statue use a subtle combination of detailed beauty and emotional realism that helps turn your backyard into a special, hallowed place. The powerful appeal of this fine replica of a nineteenth century Italian statue is demonstrated by its popularity in gardens and villas throughout Europe. Pair this breathtaking stone garden angel with the timeless beauty of a statue of Hebe, the Goddess of Youth to add to your garden's solemn elegant atmosphere. Round out the peace and tranquility of your garden statuary display with a magnificent yet humble and quiet Large Buddha Statue or by placing the Great Buddha Garden Sanctuary Sculpture off in a quiet, shaded corner of the backyard.

Pronounced: an-AS-troe-zole
Classification: Aromatase Inhibitor
Anastrozole is an aromatase inhibitor, which works to decrease the overall levels of estrogen in a woman's body. In women who have gone through menopause, estrogen is mainly produced by converting androgens (sex hormones produced by the adrenal glands) into estrogens. An enzyme called aromatase is responsible for this conversion. Aromatase inhibitors block this conversion, leading to less estrogen in the body. While estrogen may not actually cause breast cancer, it is a necessary hormone for the cancer cells to grow in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancers. With estrogen blocked, the cancer cells that feed off estrogen may not be able to survive.
Anastozole is taken in pill form, once daily. The drug may be taken with or without food.
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of Anastrozole. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
There are a few things you can do to help with hot flashes. Several medications have been shown to help with symptoms, including clonidine (a blood pressure medication), low doses of certain antidepressants (such as venlafaxine and Prozac), and gabapentin. Non-medical recommendations include: keeping well-hydrated with eight glasses of water daily, wearing cotton or lightweight, breathable fabrics, dressing in layers, exercising on a regular basis (generally walking exercise is best), practicing relaxation exercises, and avoiding triggers such as warm rooms, spicy foods, caffeinated beverages, and alcohol.
Your doctor will check your bone health before starting therapy. This is done with a bone density scan (dexa scan). Women with no weakening of bones prior to aromatase inhibitor therapy will have a follow-up scan around one year after starting therapy, and then every one to two years.
If the scan shows that you already have some bone weakening, your doctor may order a type of medication called a bisphosphonate or calcium and vitamin D supplements to help strengthen the bones. These therapies have been shown to protect the bones from bone loss in women taking aromatase inhibitors. If the bone density remains stable, scans can then be done every two years. Learn more about bone health after cancer therapy.
Aromatase inhibitor medications can cause joint or muscle aches and pains, which can interfere with quality of life. Be sure to talk to your oncology team if you develop this side effect. This pain is caused mainly by swelling in the joints, which is best treated by a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID), such as ibuprofen, naprosen and celecoxib. Be sure to discuss which pain relievers you can safely take with your oncology team as these are not without their own side effects. Some studies have shown that acupuncture and gentle stretching and exercise may help reduce this pain. Learn more about AI related joint pain.
See OncoLink's section on fatigue for helpful tips on dealing with this side effect.
Vaginal dryness and related painful intercourse is one of the more common side effects of cancer therapy. Vaginal lubricants and moisturizers can help with these concerns. Learn more about specific recommendations for dealing with this side effect.

Do you have less-than-perfect credit and want a credit card to start building your credit scores? No need to stress; we've broken down all the best credit cards for those with average credit. These credit cards are designed for those with average credit, which means your chances of getting approved are higher than with credit cards requiring excellent or good credit.
What is considered average credit?
In general, average credit scores can be as low as 650. The easiest way to know if you have average credit is to check your credit scores. Most credit report monitoring services provide you with all three of your credit scores upon signup, and a handful of these services also offer some sort of free trial, so you can test the service without making a financial commitment and essentially get your credit scores for free. Here's a list of the top credit report monitoring services.
Best credit cards for average credit
So which credit cards are the best for people with average credit? We looked at the top credit cards for average credit and selected the ones that offer the best rewards and perks. Here are our favorites:
Best Overall: Barclaycard Rewards Mastercard | APPLY NOW
While most credit cards for average credit offer less-than-impressive rewards, the Barclaycard Rewards Mastercard provides you with 2x the points for every $1 you spend on gas, groceries and utilities, and 1x the points for every $1 spent on everything else. In addition to these generous rewards, Barclaycard Rewards Mastercard also has no annual fee, which is rare for cards aimed at those with average credit.
Best for 0% Intro APR: Capital One QuicksilverOne Cash Rewards
Similar to the Barclaycard Rewards Mastercard, the Capital One QuicksilverOne Cash Rewards card does not disappoint when it comes to rewards. You can earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on all purchases. In addition to the generous cash back, Capital One QuicksilverOne Cash Rewards card also provides you with a lengthy 0% APR on all purchases and has no balance transfer fees. Although this card does have a $39 annual fee, it does offer unlimited cash back and even rewards you for making your first five months of payments on time by giving you access to a higher line.
Best for Balance Transfers: Capital One Classic Platinum Credit Card
For those looking for a card without rewards, the Capital One Classic Platinum Credit Card is the perfect option. In addition to offering you a generous 0% APR and giving you access to a higher credit line for making your first five months of payments on time, Capital One Classic Platinum also has no balance transfer fee and allows you to pick the monthly due date that works best for you. This card does charge a $39 annual fee.
[Note: Even though the credit cards listed above are best for people with average credit, you are not guaranteed to get approved for any of these cards since your credit scores are not the only factor that a bank looks at when deciding if it should issue you a credit card.]

This thread was kind of inspired by this thread but I hope I don't stop anyone helping him with his problem.
I have a working PS3 slim (old slim) 160Gb model
I want to upgrade the hard drive to say, 500Gb model
Is it just a case of inserting the new hdd into the console, formatting within the console as well and then putting the old hdd into a caddy and copying the saves back across to get me back to the same state I was in before?
Is there any other way to get everything back (I want to include my digital copies of games, such as bulletstorm for example to save downloading them again, and all my singstar songs) ?

Parko's Perfect Heat And Triple Crown Win
Mr. Smooth, Joel Parkinson had a hell of a Hawaii season. For his first act, he scored two tens in his round three heat at the Pipe Masters to earn a perfect heat score of twenty out of twenty points. Parko's only the second person ever to do this, Slater was the other at the finals of the 2005 Teahupo'o event (back when the top three wave scores used to be counted, Shane Beschen did it at Kirra in 1996, scoring a 30 out of 30). For an encore, Parko went on to garner enough overall points to win this year's Vans Triple Crown title. He'd sniffed at it a few times before, coming in runner up, but managed to take the whole enchilada. Not a bad year ender for the Coolangatta kid, joining two very exclusive lists, and finishing the year rated fourth in the world.

Board looks at improving security for schoolsBy Josh OGorman
staff writer | February 16,2013Officials are looking to improve security in Rutland City schools.
By a unanimous vote, the School Board voted to allocate $60,500 to evaluate current security measures and provide a greater ability to respond to a crisis, when and if one arises.
John Rice, director of buildings and grounds for the district, said school officials have recently conducted lockdown drills in several schools with police involvement and observation.
Weve identified some weaknesses, Rice said. The exact nature of those weaknesses was discussed during an executive session following the vote to approve the funds.
Currently, simply being able to communicate that an emergency exists is an issue in several schools in the city. The district will spend $28,000 to install two-way public-address systems in the Allen Street campus, and a P.A. system that integrates communication within the intermediate and middle schools. Work is expected to be completed this summer.
The district will also install P.A. systems in Northeast and Northwest elementary schools, which have telephone systems that allow communication between classrooms but not in corridors, restrooms, gymnasiums or playgrounds. This work is expected to cost $20,000.
Also in the safety-improvement pipeline is $7,500 to NBF Architects to evaluate how to best secure the buildings and control visitor entry. NBF previously designed the addition and renovations to Northwest School.
Last, the district will spend $5,000 to digitize the architectural drawings for the buildings.
They can be used for first-responders, and also for estimating and surveying purposes, Rice said.
Prior to the meeting, Lt. Kevin Geno of the Rutland City Police Department discussed the importance of first-responders having accurate floor plans.
After the Sandy Hook incident, were hoping to have those plans available on the computers in all the police cruisers, Geno said. Were also looking at radio frequency changes so we can be on the same channel as the schools.
The district has $67,341 remaining in its contingency fund.

A record-breaking powerboat pilot has survived crashing at 130 mph on Coniston Water.
Keith Whittle, 57, from Hayling Island in Hampshire, was taking part in the Power Boat Records Week when his boat flipped. The annual event has been running in the Lake District for over 40 years.
Mr Whittle escaped with minor injuries but his accident was reminiscent of Donald Campbell's fatal crash in January 1967.
The accident was caught on film by a spectator and Keith reflected on the incident in an interview with the BBC: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJlt-WjeAIE
A SNOW leopard which featured in a movie starring Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman is the latest addition to a South Lakeland zoo.
Young male Pavan, one of two leopards who played the part of Stelamaria in The Golden Compass, will be housed in a walk-through enclosure at Lakeland Wildlife Oasis at Hale, near Milnthorpe.
Staff have created a homely feel for their new feline friend with the enclosure designed to look like a Himalayan village with plenty of rocks for him to climb and snooze on.
An acrylic tunnel running through the enclosure will allow visitors to see Pavan in his own habitat in what is thought to be the UK's first walk-through big cat exhibit.
Assistant manager of Lakeland Wildlife Oasis, Caroline Howard, said: "We're really excited about Pavan's arrival - he's a real celebrity cat! His new home is amazing. You can walk right through his territory while he ranges around you - even above your head!"
Pavan has arrived from UK charity the Cat Survival Trust which helps conserve endangered cats.
Once he has settled in his new environment, zoo staff hope to form a breeding pair by adding a female snow leopard to Pavan's enclosure.It is not known how many snow leopards are left in the wild but they are now classed as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis is joining the captive breeding programme which is run by the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

- Successful alumnus visits Willamette
Noah Horton '02 chats with students about his career during a recent visit to Willamette.
Current News
Entrepreneurial alumnus shares his story with Willamette students
While in middle school, Noah Horton '02 bought books at garage sales and sold them to a used bookstore for a profit.
Nearly two decades later, Horton did something similar — this time selling his social media platform company, Involver, to Oracle for an undisclosed sum.
Horton shared stories about his career mishaps and successes while visiting Willamette last week. During his time on campus, he talked with computer science students and a class at the Atkinson Graduate School of Management.
"Students should figure out the job they want now, while they are still in school," Horton says. "Get out of the classroom, meet people, go on job shadows. You won't magically get the job you want based on your degree alone."
Horton, who majored in computer science and math at Willamette, did just that while he was still a student. During his college days, he interned at Sun Microsystems and Hewlett Packard, and he received a Carson Undergraduate Research Grant to help fund his interests.
Horton attributes some of his success to computer science professor Fritz Ruehr, who encouraged Horton to pursue his goals.
"He was most supportive of all of my interests," Horton says. "He has a passion for helping students realize their potential."
Horton took Ruehr's advice to heart throughout his career as a software developer — landing increasingly technical jobs at Sun, HP and Microsoft. He has filed more than 25 patents, and in 2008, Inc. Magazine named Horton one of America's Top 30 Entrepreneurs Under 30.
In 2007, Horton co-founded Involver, a large enterprise social media company serving more than a million businesses. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Involver helped companies keep track of their overall social media presence and more effectively use websites like Facebook and YouTube to market their products.
Horton sold the social media platform company to Oracle earlier this year. He is now leading the integration of Involver's social capabilities into Oracle's portfolio — helping with everything from marketing and customer support to commerce and human capital management.

Have you ever tried to hide a Corvette where people are least likely to find it? That's what many Vette lovers have done over the years, when it comes to garaging their pride(s) and joy(s). But, when it comes to building a Corvette, especially a Vette Rod, how about hiding one Corvette inside the other? That's what Doyle Thomas did, and the result is the '66 "Z066" that you see here. Inspiration came from a familiar source. (HINT: You're holding a copy of it.) "We saw an article a few years back in Corvette Fever, about how Philadelphia Motorsports had done a C3," Doyle recalls. "We were really impressed by what we saw in the article, and we thought we'd take it a step further and do it with a C2. It's very impressive."
To start a project like this one, you need a donor car for the engine, powertrain and electronics, as well as a recipient that the new stuff all goes into. Doyle says they started with a 2003 Z06 that they weren't sure how many miles were on it. "It was an insurance/theft recovery, where someone had bumped the right-front tire, and that had knocked the wires out of the computer," he says from his Longview, Texas home. "When I bought it off of eBay, it was listed on there that the car would not crank or do anything, so nobody knew anything about the car. We could tell that it was low mileage, because the seats and carpets still looked good in it." It turned out that the Z06 had only 300 miles on it!
What came off the damaged Z06? Everything but the body and frame. "We used as much as possible," he says. We used every piece of wire, and we had to lengthen the fuel pump wire. We used the window regulator motors from the Z06, so the windows go up and down quickly. We used the intermittent windshield wiper motors, and the headlight motors-when you turn the headlights on, the lights pop up as they come on." Also donated by the Z06, along with its LS6 V8 and six-speed transmission: Traction control, air conditioning-the works!
You also need a recipient-in this case a '66 Sting Ray convertible that had been stored in a warehouse in Illinois with just 48,000 miles on it. "It was totally original, and it had never been apart," Doyle says. "It still had the little paper stickers on the springs, the correct shocks, even the correct hubcaps on the car." He sold the '66s complete chassis to someone in Florida who was going to restore their '66.
Meanwhile, Philadelphia Motorsports welded up a round-tube chassis to fit under the Sting Ray's body. Once it was ready, Doyle says the swap was pretty straight-forward. "Being their first C2, there were a few minor adjustments that we had to work around, but there was nothing major. The exhaust was a minor issue on the chassis-we lengthened the side exhausts by about 3 1/2 inches to fit the body."
Once it was all together, thanks to the engineering and fabrication skills of Tom and Tommy Ames at Automotive Specialties in Longview, the result was a spectacular Vette Rod, one that is far from being a trailer queen. "We've put 8,000 miles on this car since it was finished late last summer," says Doyle. "We had a really good trip-we went up to Yellowstone, then over to the Bonneville Salt Flats, then over to Washington State and Oregon where we came down the coast into California and all the way to L.A., then we came back I-10 all the way back into Texas."
Before long, there'll be another "hidden Z06" in Doyle's garage. "We're in the process of doing a C3 on the same concept-all Z06 components," he says. "It's a '69 triple-black Stingray roadster. We have all the Z06 parts in place, we have the '69 in place, and all we're waiting for now is Philadelphia Motorsports to finish up the chassis."
Did this car inspire you to consider planning a Vette Rod of your own? Even if it won't be as elaborate as Doyle's "Z066," he has this advice: "Do it soon, as sooner is better than later. Once it's complete, and you drive it, you're going to love it. You're going to want to drive it all the time."

Then on Saturday, July 16, the Spotlight Talks will explore "Civil War Artillery Projectiles."

Black and inscribed with "Intimidator Series 3"on the valve covers and air cleaner lid, this '69 Camaro leaves little doubt to its heritage. The driver's side of the grille carries the badge, "RCR Series 3" to further inform the curious, along with the sound of the 560hp carbureted 427 cubic inch all-aluminum small-block under the hood.
Basically, this '69 Camaro is a tribute to the legendary NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt and Richard Childress Racing. RCR built Dale's No. 3 NASCAR Chevrolets. Earnhardt made the three famous on his way to six NASCAR championships while driving for Richard Childress Racing. Richard incorporated RCR in '69 and made his first NASCAR start with, of all cars, a '69 Camaro.
These facts combined with the 40th anniversary the most popular Camaro of all time created a very special opportunity. RCR has partnered with Brook Phillips of Total Performance Inc. in Wichita, Kansas, to build a numbered series of 50 ultra high performance '69 Camaros
I got to see this car and take pictures at a very appropriate place, Hallett Motor Racing Circuit in Jennings, Oklahoma. When I arrived, Brook was pumped with the performance of the RCR Series 3. Gary Bennett of Barrett-Jackson had just driven the black Camaro round and round the track to shoot video for their TV show on the Speed channel.
Brook said, "Gary Bennett was in Tulsa two months earlier at the Shelby event driving a new Ford GT. He was turning consistent one minute 38 second laps times. In the RCR Camaro, he was running five seconds faster."
Building heritage cars in the RCR line just naturally would seem to be more than making trophy winning, eye-catchers. A Childress Camaro would also need to run and run hard like a racing thoroughbred.
Bennett also drove a Nissan GTR, the $83,000 so-called "Z06 Corvette-killer" at Hallett that day. The RCR Camaro ran three seconds faster than this twin-turbo, paddle-shifted, 480hp supercar.
Total Performance Inc., which Brook founded in 1993, specializes in limited edition builds like the RCR Camaro, as well as restoring, customizing, and repairing classic cars, muscle cars and street rods. He and his brother also own and manage the Mid America Auto Auction in Wichita, Kansas. Prior to these ventures, Brook owned a body shop and raced cars. A bad car wreck sidelined him about four years ago. For rehab, he sanded car bodies.
"I couldn't race anymore and wanted to get into older cars, but never really thought about doing it full time. It was going to be more of a hobby, part-time deal, and it just kind of exploded."
This side business attracted the attention Bobby Moody, Brook's paint rep and also a motor sports marketing rep for Sherwin-Williams. Moody worked for Richard Childress for 15 years and was one of the early employees of RCR. He brought up the subject of Childress wanting to "do something in a muscle car deal."
Phillips jumped at the opportunity to "come up with some ideas." This was in the March to April time frame of 2007.
About the first week of August, Brook got a meeting with Richard Childress. "I pitched the deal and he loved it. We made a couple of small changes and ran with it."
Phillips' enthusiasm ran wild if build time is any indication. He had the first RCR Camaro Series 3 completed in eight weeks for the annual SEMA convention in November. However, that car was mainly built for show. It was a pusher. After SEMA, Brook's shop tore the car back apart and re-scanned the modified parts. In fact, most of the parts on the car today he says are "second-, third-, and fourth-generation."
This first production RCR Series 3 Camaro was ready for Barrett-Jackson in January, when it sold for a heady $575,000. A big deal was the SB-2 NASCAR racing engine under the hood.
