Make it easy...
You could make your Christmas shopping easy. How?
Well, so far Ive been really lucky and none of my 4 adventure motorcycle travels books have had bad reviews from either the press or readers.
Safe bet for presents in that case? I hope so.
The books are all available in paperback format Aerostich in N America and all over the place in the UK. Online from Amazon, Waterstones and of course signed copies direct from my book site.
They are also available for download as Kindles and Into Africa is available as an enhanced e-book from i-tunes. And Into Africa is also now available as an audio book. To my knowledge there are only 5 other audio adventure motorcycle travel books.
This comment was posted on FaceBook recently: 'I'm just coming to the end of Tortillas to Totems and have thoroughly enjoyed all four books, they've been a cracking read.'
Why am I posting about this now, in November??? Ill be away at the Motorcycle Live show at the NEC in the UK, book signing for 2 weeks and by the time I get back here well be well into December. See you then.

Olympia Snowe and Americans Elect
New York's Jon Chait has speculated, with his characteristic perspicacity, that Olympia Snowe's statement of non-candidacy for the Senate may have also been a statement of candidacy for the Americans Elect presidential slot. He further noted that the endorsement yesterday of Wall Street's favorite third party by former Oklahoma Senator David Boren (D-Exxon Mobil) sets up a proper Americans Elect ticket, since the group stipulates that its ticket must be made up of one Democrat and one Republican (or two independents).
Still, it seems to me that Americans Elect can only make a sizable impact on this year's election if the Republican Party anoints the champion of Goyishe Sharia, Rick Santorum, as its nominee. A Santorum nomination would send a considerable number of Republicans in search of a more socially moderate Republican alternative, and Snowe most surely fits that bill. But in the more likely eventuality of a Mitt Romney nomination, the political space that an Americans Elect ticket could fill becomes excruciatingly narrow. Like Snowe, Romney is a New England moderate, albeit decked out in utterly unconvincing far-right garb. Writing in today's Washington Post, my friend Matt Miller, who's long championed Americans Elect, makes a less-than-convincing case that Romney has moved so far right that he's opened the door for an Americans Elect alternative. But in the face of a Romney-Obama election, the addition of Olympia Snowe to the mix seems like little more than the political expression of the narcissism of small differences. How many moderates can dance on the head of a pin?

The only thing more certain than the fact that a third party candidate cannot win the Presidency is that if (a HUGE if) they did somehow manage to win they could not govern. If you think there is gridlock now with two parties imagine what throwing a third party into mix would do. Nobody would get anything.
Wed, 2012-02-29 22:09
In order to become the Americans Elect nominee, the candidate will need to receive many thousands of supporters. Currently Snowe has 70, compared with Paul's 3300, Huntsman's 1700, Sanders' 1200, and Obama's 1050. Boren has not even been drafted.
Perhaps Snowe is being completely honest and, like many of us voters, truly finds the current political process totally dysfunctional and in need of a revolutionary approach that bypasses political parties altogether. Americans Elect offers all registered voters, no matter what their political leanings, an opportunity to select a nominee whose views most closely match their own. The AE process is driven by issues and preferences deemed most important by its member delegates (i.e. YOU!), not parties, pundits, or political strategists. The more of us who join and participate in selecting an AE nominee, the more acceptable will be the AE Presidential ticket and the greater the chance of victory for people over party in November.

I've been trolling for comments for years. I find them irascible at times, prescient at others. It's disingenuous to aver that a movement fomented at this time can actually amass the infrastructure to beat party-based candidates and their Super-Pacs (where is Jon Stuart and Colbert's SP when we need them?). I echo the previous concern that an AE victory for President would be disastrous for legislation.

Snowe is a MINO - moderate in name only. In the last 4 years, what has she done that can be called moderate? Has she voted to end any filibuster?

ERP Workshop
I am pleased to announce that Wednesday, January 30, - Friday, February 1, 2013, the College of Liberal Arts Interdepartmental EEG Facility will be hosting Steve Luck from the University of California-Davis for an ERP/EEG workshop open to University of Minnesota researchers with interests in ERP methodology. Dr. Luck is the Author of An Introduction to the Event Related Potential Technique, which is widely regarded as the definitive introductory textbook in the field. He annually accepts a limited number of highly qualified students into his ERP Bootcamp at UC-Davis. He also conducts a few "Mini ERP Bootcamps" each year at other institutions, one of which we have the privilege of hosting in January.
The first two days of the our Mini Bootcamp will consist primarily of lectures. The workshop will conclude with hands-on training in the use of Dr. Luck's free EEGLab software for half a day on Friday morning.
If you would like to attend, please email me (firstname.lastname@example.com).
Additional information (e.g., location, detailed schedule, etc.) will be provided after we know how many attendees to expect and how much space we will need.

Call me crazy but I for one really dig that they are painting over the black plastic. For me it reminds me of neca paint. Just looks better in my opinion
I avoided this thread because I figured it would be nothing but a mud slinging contest between 'angry fans' and 'Mattel apologists', but I would be curious to know just how much money Mattel is saving on black painted plastic vs colored plastic. One is a 2 step process. Are we talking pennies per unit? 50 cents? 1 dollar?
Regardless of the strong feelings either side has, this line has proven 1 thing to me. Mattel will make it, and orgers will buy it. That is why you are here. If you're willing to drop $25 on an action figure (in a line that has been plagued with issues since inception) you know what you are getting into. Loose joints, improperly assembled, painted over plastic that wears at joints. At the end of the day, they are just toys. Poorly made toys. Don't expect any earth shattering changes on Mattel's end. They are about the bottom dollar.
If anything, this thread has made me glad I kept my MOTUC mint on card, and I'm no longer torn up about missing the sub. I have better things to spend my money on. This will be my last investment into Mattel's products, and when I'm done, I'll go back to searching for vintage figures.

Problem is, the paint chips and flakes....might look good to some, but don't dare move your figure much....eventually, he'll get Blasticitis, and his skin color will come off.

What about Castle Grayskull Man?
You don't need to be a genius to notice that some parts of Castle Grayskullman are made with plack plastic covered with paint. Take a look at Pixel Dan's preview, and look at the arms elbow articulation and peg : they're clearly made with "blastic" !What about Castle Grayskull Man?
Given Castle Grayskullman's colours are quite dark, it's not really a surprise. The real question is to know whether the next vibrant figures will still use the black plastic morbo or not... This will take us to the beginning of 2013, since December's Mosquitor is mainly black. Still, the question of the blastic use is left hanging for Granamyr... We'll have to see with Ram-Man and Netossa in January what Mattel did (or didn't do) to solve the problem.
Unlukily all the attention on the "blastic" case seems ceased in favour of CG preorder and speculations. The Blastic case will bounce back soon though, as I fear Dekker won't be the last one.

Apparently more 2012 figures have had black materials used and then painted over - Starla! I just noticed that she had black pins on her feets, I checked my buddies, and his has yellow plastic pins!

Well it looks good to me since I open them and put them on the shelf. After that I hardly ever touch them unless I'm making room for new figs. But yeah I could see where it could be problematic
I ended up opening almost all of mine, including reluctantly DB Skeletor, Mek & Rattlor, just not Spikor....and aside from some unfinished painted areas which are very minor, and a few tiny pin sized spots in various places, I have to say mine are fine, but I feel for the ones who have the figures where the paint just rubbed, peeled & chipped right off....I would be immensely ****** if that happened to mine....

I gave Starla another look and her legs are black plastic painted - her knee cap has black plastic coming through. So was black plastic used all throughout 2012?
MY Feedback Thread : http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...d.php?t=191572
One thing I have been thinking about concerning the blastic: I can see it being a cost saver on some parts on some 6" figures, but I don't think it would be cost effective on Grayskull (a blastic castle being an oft raised fear). Having to paint some parts on a small figure is one thing; having to fully paint a huge playset inside and out would be another. I think the cost of all the paint opps there might well be greater than any savings using recycled black plastic.
Anyone with more knowledge of the procedures here have any insight on this?

But it is Mattel, so....I also think that paint flaking off of a $250 castle ******* people off would be a bad move on their part, I mean it could spell the end of things if it wasn't done right, this will be the most expensive MOTUC item ever, I don't think they want to foul it up....but who knows....it is Mattel....

"There's only one Master of the Universe and it's He-Man." - Stephen Colbert
"The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing." - Blaise Pascal
Tri-Klops has a green forearm, Fisto has a redish brown Bi-Cep...etc, I know the black plastic thing yes, but it had not been widely used until July....I have over half of the figures, and with that a wide cross section of every year....and I don't have any of those issues....maybe the Star Sisters were a test since there were 3 of them to test costs....I don't know....but I do know my Skeletor pics are fine, they likely had leftover or ran out of the correct parts and instead of doing it right, they half assed them at the factory.
I have used a black light when playing with mine, and observed the difference in colors produced when shining it on something painted vs something molded, even if the colors appear identical....under black light they are very noticeable. And neither of my Skeletor bodies, re-issue & Mo-Larr, have painted pins.
But here's a real kicker.....Mosquitor has black plastic again!!! What are they thinking?

Despite sharing the same designation as the ever-popular 5.0L from the Ford camp, the 305 Chevy is viewed as a second-class citizen in the Chevy hobby. This seems odd since it's a Chevy small-block under the skin, but in the performance world, just as in nature, bigger is almost always seen as better.
In reality, 305 Chevys (including our carbureted LG4 version) make great street engines and can be the basis for impressive performance machines. That is not to say that the 350 (by way of the increase in displacement) won't ultimately make more average and possibly even peak power (this depends on combination), but don't dismiss that 5.0L/ 305 you have sitting under the hood on the basis of a missing 45 ci.
Before getting to our test, we should take a look at a few of the common complaints about the 305. According to ramblings on the various forums, the first strike against the 305 is displacement. True enough, it is always easier to reach a given power goal with more cubes, but the major concern for any build up is usually dollars and not displacement. While heads, cam and an intake for the 305 will cost the same as a 350, the fact that you can retain your existing 305 short-block makes swapping over to the larger 350 much less cost-effective. If you are looking for an extra 100-150 hp, the stock 305 short-block (even if it is a high-mileage unit) will work perfectly with the planned upgrades.
If your 305 needs rebuilding or replacing, by all means grab a cheap 350 from a wrecking yard and start with that-or better yet step up to a larger 383 or even 406.
Problem number two with the 305 is the small bore size. The bore (3.736-inch versus 4.00 for the 350) can ultimately limit head flow (by necessitating smaller valves, which limits potential airflow), but not at the power levels for most street engines. Were we to build a 350hp small-block using either a 302 (4.0 x 3.0), a 305 (3.736x3.48) or even a 307 (3.875x3.25) bore and stroke combination, the difference in the power curves would be minimal. If we went looking for a high-winding combination capable of exceeding 500 hp (or more), then the larger bore offered by the 302 configuration would certainly come into play.
Unlike its brother the 307, Chevy actually offered performance versions of the 5.0L 305. The 230hp rating offered by the 1989 LB9 TPI motor pales in comparison to the current LS-based combinations, but back in the day, the TPI 305 with the five-speed tranny was a pretty hot set up and could rip of 14-second quarter-mile times (and near 150 mph top speeds) in stock trim. Introduced in 1985, the TPI motors garnered all the attention, leaving the carbureted LG4 and L03 (TBI) motors seemingly out in the cold. The TPI motors did offer some serious torque thanks to their extra-long intake runners, but power production quickly leveled off at the top of the rev range. Rated anywhere from a low of 145 hp to a high of 170 hp, the carbureted LG4 and TBI L03 305s were down by as much as 60 hp to their TPI counterparts.

NEW YORK In a game of inches, Iowa State's football team fell an yard short every time it needed a foot.
From dropped passes to misfires, from penalties negating touchdowns to third-down misery, Iowa State failed to execute in the clutch time and time again in a 27-13 loss to Rutgers in the Pinstripe Bowl on Friday at Yankee Stadium.
The Cyclones (6-7) struggled mightily on offense, especially on third down. Iowa State converted just 2-of-13 third-down opportunities and one was from a penalty. Iowa State quarterbacks completed 17-of-39 passes and ran the ball for only 91 yards on 29 carries.
There were critical dropped passes, like from receiver Darius Reynolds on third-and-9 in Rutgers territory early in the third quarter. And there were misfires, like Jared Barnett's pass way behind Josh Lenz in the first quarter than could have been a big gain.
Even a quarterback switch early in the second quarter couldn't guide the Cyclones to a comeback. In a word, it was frustrating for Iowa State.
"If it wasn't the most frustrating, it certainly was one of the most frustrating (games) because we just weren't executing," Iowa State running back Jeff Woody said. "It wasn't anything that they were doing that we didn't know they were going to do. It was just we didn't do it well.
"We couldn't execute. We couldn't complete a pass. We couldn't stop blitzes when they were coming. We didn't execute the way we needed to."
But offensive problems weren't the only issue for the Cyclones. On defense, Iowa State allowed Rutgers which ranked 115th nationally in rushing to run for 173 yards on 42 carries. The Cyclones didn't force any turnovers and allowed a pair of fourth-down conversions.
On special teams Iowa State had a 93-yard kickoff return for a touchdown wiped out because of a holding penalty. With the Cyclones trailing 10-6 in the second quarter, kick returner Jarvis West burst up the middle but it was called back to the 26-yard line after Tyler Leo held a Rutgers player about two steps after West had passed him.
Still, the Cyclones had an opportunity to win midway through the fourth quarter. Iowa State trailed 20-13 with 6:40 left in the game and had Rutgers backed up on its 13. On second down and 9, Rutgers quarterback Chas Dodd found 6-foot-6 wide receiver Brandon Coleman isolated one-on-one with 5-7 ISU cornerback Jeremy Reeves down his left sideline. Dodd hit Coleman in stride, and the receiver ran past Reeves for an 84-yard touchdown strike to push the lead to 27-13.
"Great play, great play," Iowa State Coach Paul Rhoads said. "Yeah, 20-13 and I thought the momentum was all ours and field position was good. We created a second-and-long situation. Our corners, especially the second half of the season, have played very well.
"When the ball went up, I saw where Jeremy Reeves was positioned, and I was very hopeful for an interception. They both went up and made the play. Timing was good and their kid made a great, great catch and run for a touchdown."
Despite the two-touchdown deficit, Iowa State rallied, driving the ball to the Rutgers 12. But four passes to the end zone fell incomplete, virtually ending any comeback hopes for the Cyclones.
Iowa State kicked field goals on its first two possessions to take a 6-0 lead. But Rutgers rallied after missing a field goal to put together a 10-play, 74-yard drive that culminated in a 1-yard touchdown run by Jawan Jamison on fourth down and goal.
The Cyclones gave the ball back to Rutgers on the next possession. Barnett was hit and stripped by linebacker Khaseem Greene on third-and-12, and defensive end Scott Vallone picked up the ball and rambled to the 4-yard line. Iowa State's defense stiffened, however, and held Rutgers to a field goal.
"Not firing on all cylinders to start the game off," Barnett said. "We just couldn't get in a rhythm. We were running the ball pretty well, but I just couldn't in a rhythm throwing it."
Barnett hurt his knee on the play, and was replaced by Steele Jantz. Barnett said he could have re-entered the game but stood behind Rhoads' decision to play Jantz.
Barnett completed just 2-of-7 passes for 23 yards. Jantz missed several open receivers and completed 15-of-31 passes and had two interceptions.

Never use it. Even when typing whole sentences, I try to type with all my fingers (not the proper way though, just taught myself) so its pretty easy just to hold shift with my pinky and type.
fun fact: always the right shift too. I guess its because I'm right handed, I never use the left shift.

Only time I use caps lock is in the rare instance of needing to type an entire sentence in caps. Otherwise, it's left shift all the way, even though I'm right handed.. hmmm.
Caps lock is pretty much useless these days for most people--save, say, entering data on a spreadsheet or something. I think for every legitimate need for it, there are approximately 7.5 million instances of it accidentally having been pressed and causing someone to mistype their password too many times >.<

Started in the summer of 2004 to draw on the musical spirit that exists under the shadows of the majestic Teton Mountains, Targhee Fest is the ultimate all-around mountain lifestyle and music festival in the Rockies. Targhee Fest occurs in a majestic high-alpine setting at 7800 feet that is just steps away from the village of Grand Targhee Resort where you can have comfortable lodging accommodations, great dining, lift serviced hiking & biking, and full service shopping – with camping only a few more short steps away from the main music venue. Targhee Fest is about great music, the culture and lifestyle of the mountains, great food and drink, the spirit of sustainability and the hospitality that resides in this jewel of a resort.
Rock torchbearers Gov't Mule are celebrating their 20th anniversary with an extensive tour and a series of dynamic live archival releases that highlight the group's versatility and epic, fearless live performances. The deep chemistry and steely confidence shared by the quartet allow them to tackle any form of music and stamp it their own while remaining true to the spirit and intent of the original. This can of course be heard any time guitarist-singer Warren Haynes, drummer Matt Abts, bassist Jorgen Carlsson and multi-instrumentalist Danny Louis take the stage, but a series of new live archival releases really drives the point home.
Almost three decades after winning a Grammy for Best New Artist and launching one of contemporary music's most diverse careers, Bruce Hornsby still makes joyful noise as he discovers clever and expansive ways to chronicle dynamic musical snapshots of his often generously collaborative journey.
Nothing better illustrates this than Hornsby's communion with his longtime band, the Noisemakers. And nothing catches that connection with more daring fluency than a couple of live collections released eleven years apart; 2011's Bride of the Noisemakers, a set of concert recordings from 2007 to 2009, and 2000's Here Come the Noisemakers, which initially unveiled Hornsby and his band's free-wheeling live approaches to the Virginia-born pianist and composer's memorable songs.
Grammy Award winning artist Warren Haynes has been recognized as a cornerstone of the American music landscape and revered as one of the finest guitar players in the world. Throughout his prolific career as part of three of the greatest live groups in rock history – Allman Brothers Band, Gov't Mule and the Dead – his virtuosic artistry has led to thousands of unforgettable performances and millions of album and track sales. Despite all of the ground that Haynes has covered on his musical journey, the impressive thing is that he still has many miles to explore. On his newest solo album Ashes and Dust, he puts forth one of his most gorgeous, musically rich and personal albums to date. It is endlessly exciting to see one of the most brilliant minds in modern music shine an entirely new light on the depths of his creativity.
A singer/songwriter whose music splits the difference between pop/rock and folksy Americana, Brandi Carlile was born in the small town of Ravensdale, Washington. Carlile found early influences from the classic country music her parents doted on, specifically Patsy Cline, and she made her stage debut at the age of eight after she was taken to a local country radio show by her mother. At 17, Carlile picked up the guitar, having developed a taste for rock & roll through Elton John's classic albums of the '70s, and began hitting the Seattle bar scene; playing anywhere she could get a gig (including a stint singing backup for an Elvis Presley tribute act).
Her emotionally powerful songwriting and acoustic guitar led her to opening shows for Dave Matthews, Shawn Colvin, and India.Arie. With numerous critically-acclaimed albums, she's promoting her most recent album, The Firewatcher's Daughter. Opting for a loose and live feel for the album, it was recorded almost without demoing any of the songs or overdubs. The album appeared the first week of March 2015.
Americana roots band The Wood Brothers are comprised of real life brothers Chris and Oliver Wood, as well as multi-instrumentalist Jano Rix. Starting with debut 'Ways Not To Lose,' which NPR described as a collection of "gracious little songs [that] sound like they were born on a front porch during a beautiful sunset," The Wood Brothers have made albums like you're not supposed to anymore — recording mostly live, warts and all. But on 'The Muse,' they double down on the production values of a purer time. The new album shuffles between bluesy, classic country and swampy funk, mining the brothers' timeless influences (Robert Johnson, Willie Nelson, Charles Mingus) while sounding fresh enough to win over fans of today's mainstream roots-music acts (The Avett Brothers, Mumford & Sons).
Referred to as "the truest, fiercest songwriter of his generation," by Entertainment Weekly, Austin, Texas-based artist James McMurtry spins stories with a poet's pen and a painter's precision. Proof: The acclaimed songwriter's new album Complicated Game. McMurtry's first collection in six years spotlights a craftsman in absolutely peak form as he turns from political toward personal. "The lyrical theme is mostly about relationships," McMurtry says. "It's also a little about the big old world verses the poor little farmer or fisherman. I never make a conscious decision about what to write about."
American Kid, Patty Griffin's seventh album, is her first album of mainly new material since Children Running Through in 2007. In between, she made the Grammy Award-winning Downtown Church (2010), her version of classic gospel (though it featured three original songs). She also became a member of Band of Joy, the group in which leader Robert Plant and his cohorts meld British and American folk, rock, and spiritual music. American Kid, much of which Griffin says "was written to honor my father," returns to typical Patty Griffin territory featuring a group of remarkably powerful, personal and unpredictable songs arranged and performed in a style that doesn't entirely repeat anything she's done on her previous albums while drawing on all of them.
Amy Helm's deep musical roots were enriched by a lifetime of exposure to the finest expressions of American musical tradition. Combined with her stunning vocal and other creative gifts, those roots have grown up to reveal a spellbinding artist who moves easily through a broad range of musical styles. The daughter of music legend Levon Helm and singer/songwriter Libby Titus Fagen, Helm wields a powerful voice that can both stir and soothe, whether she is singing traditional gospel, blues standards or her own heartfelt compositions. She is a gifted musician on both mandolin and drums, and has clearly absorbed the lessons of the many other accomplished artists with whom she has shared stages, including Mavis Staples, Emmylou Harris, and Joan Osborne, as well as other uniquely American performers like Dr. John and Hubert Sumlin.
There are few living musicians who can lay claim to being the voice of America's conscience, and even fewer who continue to make vital music. For six decades Mavis Staples has been the solid rock of American music. Alongside the family group she is so identified with, the Staple Singers, Mavis has managed to transform herself as she goes, yet never alter. From the delta-inflected gospel sound she helped create in the 1950s ("Uncloudy Day"), to the engaged protest of the civil rights era ("Freedom Highway"), and then, amazingly, on pop radio in the 1970s with a series of chart hits ("I'll Take You There," "Respect Yourself," "Lets Do It Again")--through all these, Mavis carried on, her warm embrace of a voice the only constant.
Remember that mix tape your friend made you way back when - the one that's etched in your soul? Martin Sexton's new album Mixtape of the Open Road is that musical cross-country trip, blazing through all territories of style, as you cruise through time and place. This record is a charm bracelet of twelve gems all strung together with the golden thread of what Rolling Stone calls has called a "soul marinated voice." Sexton, an upstate New Yorker, left home with seventy-five bucks and a Stratocaster to chase his musical dreams singing in the streets of Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts, gradually and independently working his way to the premiere venues of North America, inspiring fans and musicians along the way.
Jackie Greene began his career in his mid-teens working the bar and open mic circuit in and around his hometown of Sacramento. Since then, he has recorded seven albums and two EP's, released a DVD, and published a book of lyrics. Upon witnessing his performance at Bonnaroo, Jon Pareles of The New York Times had this to say about the singer, songwriter, bandleader, multi-instrumentalist, "Jackie Greene could be the Prince of Americana. That's capital P, and not because Mr. Greene favors the color purple but for some musical parallels."
Indie rock band from Philadelphia, Good Old War is made up of Keith Goodwin and Dan Schwartz. The band's name comes from the last names of the three founding members; Goodwin for "Good," Arnold (former member Tim) for "Old," and Schwartz for "War." On November 4, 2008, Good Old War released their first album, "Only Way To Be Alone." There new album "Tell Me What You Want From Me" debuts this summer.
Gifted with a gritty and genuine voice that immediately feels familiar to fans of rock and country music, Idaho-born songwriter, singer, and guitarist Jeff Crosby has been writing songs, grinding out shows, and sharing his unique perspective of Americana throughout the United States and beyond for the better part of the past 10 years. Alongside him now to form "The Refugees," brother Andy Crosby (bass) and Ben Brault (drums) have created a force of honest, provocative rock and roll that is quickly gathering both a fervent fan base and critical acclaim wherever they go.
The Shape Of Things Gone Missing, The Shape Of Things To Come is the result of a hiatus from the road; five years spent immersed in working and living on a 120 year-old small family cattle ranch in a remote corner of Southeastern Montana.
"I thought I was stepping back from music and writing," says Scanlan, "but when these songs came together I realized that I have been writing them all along. There's a beautiful congruence in music and working with cattle and horses- it's all about the flow, finding the current in things. I was curious about how that would translate in the studio, how the landscape would come through."
She couldn't have found better company for such an endeavor; producer and long time musical collaborator Jon Neufeld brought fellow members of Black Prairie and the Decemberists, Dolorean and Amy Helm together for the stunning result.
Kris Lager Band has been hard at work for over a decade spreading and honing their Revivalist Rock, Heavy Soul & Boogie Trance music across the country. When it comes to energetic and heartfelt live music performances KLB is second to none. They have worked with, toured, and recorded alongside some of the industries finest. All the while managing to avoid the pitfalls of the road and the rock'n'roll lifestyle that far to often derail a band on the verge of breaking out.
Bozeman, Montana based band Hooligans is pleased to announce the release of its debut recording BEGGARS and THIEVES. Produced by Little Feat founder/keyboardist Bill Payne and Vootie Productions' Tom Garnsey, the nine song recording features original material co-written by Garnsey and Payne, guitarist Bob Britten and late Hooligans guitarist David Troy, as well as a couple of carefully chosen covers from Richard Thompson and Natalie Merchant and a reworking of the Appalachian folk ballad "Katy Cruel". Of special significance is "7th Daughter" one of sixteen songs co-written by Bill Payne and legendary Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter this past year. The record also features guest spots from Tim O'Brien on fiddle, New Orleans' own Spencer Bohren on lap steel, Jimmy Lange on keyboards, reggae great Pato Banton on vocals and Alison Garnsey on backing vocals. Beggars and Thieves comfortably and seamlessly straddles several genres of music from rock to blues, reggae to folk and Americana, all filtered through decades of live performance to create a rootsy sound unique to Hooligans.

It seems as though we're surrounded by myths in our everyday lives. "An apple a day keeps the doctor away," and "The check is in the mail," are just two examples. Building high-performance engines has its fair share of fallacies also. Most everyone has an opinion about something. Unfortunately, not everyone's opinion is as right as it should be.
We recently sat down with Bill Mitchell, of Bill Mitchell Products and World Castings fame, and discussed several myths that always seem to be floating around in our industry. Bill brought up some very simple and basic truths that most of us never seem to think about, because we've been "brainwashed" to just accept them. But, when you sit down and really think about these, they have a lot of truth.
A dilemma Mitchell lives with everyday is, "Do you make a part the right way, or do you just sell a customer what he wants." While Mitchell will sell you what you want, he commented, "I want to make sure a customer gets what he or she really needs, and sometimes that takes educating the consumer a little. Yes, that sometimes takes a little more effort than just giving somebody what he wants, but it's important that we at least lay down the facts and then let them make the choice."
What follows here are the facts. Some of these ideas might seem to contradict today's style of thinking. However, if you think about them using everyday common sense, you'll realize that they all have merit.
Myth #1 - Aluminum Heads Make More PowerBuilding power requires one important ingredient: heat. You've all probably heard the term, "Heat equals horsepower," and it's true. When the spark plug fires in each cylinder, it creates an explosion of the fuel and air mixture. The containment of that explosion creates pressure on the piston and forces it back down the cylinder. The faster it is forced back down, the more power it ultimately transfers to the crankshaft and, eventually, out to the tires. So far, that's relatively simple to understand, but where does heat come into play?
The explosion obviously creates heat. The amount of heat is then divided up, and most goes towards the creation of pressure on the piston, but some is transferred into the block and head casting and, eventually, finds its way into the water jackets (and is cooled). There's no way you could contain all the heat without transferring some of it out, but theoretically, if we could, well, that's just dreaming.
Let's get back to heat. Aluminum is great at dissipating heat. Heat up two equal-size blocks of aluminum and iron, and you'll quickly understand that theory. The heat is transferred very quickly out of the aluminum, while the iron will take longer to cool. That's why you're seeing more aluminum radiators around lately. Now the question remains, "If we want to keep heat in a combustion chamber, why do we use an aluminum head?" A cast-iron head will undoubtedly hold the heat in more and will make more power than an equally modified aluminum piece. But, unfortunately, there are drawbacks.
To start with, a cast-iron, big-block Chevy cylinder head just about requires the use of a small crane to lift on and off a motor. There's another term that's floating around, and it's, "Weight equals horsepower." Using the general statement (which is close to being true), "100 pounds equals a 10th of a second," it then stands to reason that the 75-85-pound savings from using aluminum heads on a big-block is worth close to a 10th in e.t.
Acceleration is also an important factor. In the 1600s, the Greek astronomer, Galileo, reasoned that both light and heavy objects fall at the same rate of speed. However, we're not sure if his testing involved big-block Chevrolet dragsters, with and without aluminum heads. The plain fact is that, while they both might fall at the same speed if dropped from a tree, the lighter car will accelerate faster. Can losing a 10th of second due to using cast-iron heads be picked up in the extra power made by them? Probably not.

A Starkville resident who was reported last week as armed and dangerous has been detained and is now in Oktibbeha County Jail.
Authorities from Lowndes County Sheriff's Office arrested Sammie Bernard Reed, 42, of 1507 Louisville St. May 11 at a convenience store near the Mississippi-Alabama state line.
Reed allegedly robbed a resident of the Sandhill Arms apartment complex on Louisville Street May 8. SPD Detective Stephanie Perkins said Reed used a revolver and stole $70 from the victim. Reed was out on bond from an April 6 arrest in which SPD charged him with false pretense. He already had a warrant for his arrest for missing the hearing for that charge. He was also arrested in September 2011 and charged with robbery.
Perkins said LCSO received a tip that Reed was at the convenience store. While she could not confirm the name of the store, she said Reed did not attempt to flee or use force. He was detained without incident.
Perkins said SPD received the call from LCSO at approximately 8 p.m. informing the department of the arrest.
"We'd like to give a special thanks to Lowndes County Sheriff's Office, Columbus Police Department and Oktibbeha County Sheriff's office for assisting us in his arrest," Perkins said. "If it weren't (for them) catching him, he would have crossed state lines."
SPD Chief David Lindley said the arrest is an example of how help from citizens can be critical in ensuring their safety.
"This shows that it is really important to have public assistance to make us successful at what we do," Lindley said. "In this particular case, the individual had become a danger to himself and others, and we're glad to have him in custody."

Wescott shares insights for incoming students
"Being involved at Roanoke taught me how to manage diverse opportunities, just like at a job"Imagine skiing in the Alps, getting stranded and having to build a snow cave for protection. Ben Wescott '09 had such an adventure and credits survival television shows and his time at Roanoke for saving him.
Wescott, a native of Lynchburg, Va., visited his relatives last winter in Egypt and went on a ski trip with one of his cousins for a few days in St. Johann of Tirol. Much to his surprise, they became separated, and he was forced to stay on the slopes for about seven hours. Wescott made a snow cave for safety and waited for help to arrive.
"Of course, this happened the first day of the trip," Wescott says with a laugh. "It was pouring snow, and it was impossible to ski anywhere because it was pitch dark and other villages were too far."
But the problem-solving skills he learned at Roanoke got him through. The sociology major with a communications concentration learned to manage time and face challenges while serving the campus as a tour guide, head Resident Advisor, brother of Pi Kappa Phi, member of Roanoke College's Choir, and president of Looking for An Echo. He also interned with Senator Jim Webb of Virginia and completed an independent study on citizen journalism and the effects of blogging on the presidential election. Wescott says staying on the go is his forte.
"I'm good at being busy," Wescott says. "Being involved at Roanoke taught me how to manage diverse opportunities, just like at a job."
And in June, it became a real job. Wescott became a new admissions counselor for the College and is sharing his experiences with would-be students from different parts of the country.
