Money & you Financial tips for the sandwich generationBy HEIDI CLUTE | April 23,2013
Are you caught in the middle between supporting children and caring for aging parents? At a time when your career is reaching a peak and you are looking ahead to your own retirement, you may find yourself having to help your children with college expenses or supporting them during a job search while also looking after the needs of your aging parents. Squeezed in the middle, youve joined the ranks of the sandwich generation.
If you feel trapped in the middle, youve got company: about one in seven (15 percent) middle-aged adults is providing financial support to both an aging parent and a child. Today, members of both the Baby Boomer generation and Generation X are part of the sandwich generation. Since Pew Research first explored this topic in 2005, many Baby Boomers have aged out of the sandwich generation; so, as of 2012, Generation Xers are more likely than Baby Boomers to find themselves in the sandwich.
Caring for your parents
The squeeze of caring for children and parents takes its toll in many ways emotionally, physically, and financially. Here are some tips on dealing with the finances and legalities:
Talk with your parents. Find out, in detail, what your parents have in terms of savings, assets, income, insurance and legal protection. Review their bank and financial arrangements. Look into their medical coverage. Find out about their Social Security and pension benefits; remember to check for digital assets too, including online banking information and passwords, for example.
Gather or locate important documents from them, such as Social Security number(s), Medicare and Medicaid numbers, insurance information (especially long-term-care insurance), doctors and their phone numbers, medications, bill-pay notifications, property deeds, trusts, drivers license number, birth certificate and any other relevant information. Check for updated wills, trusts, and beneficiary designations on retirement plans and insurance policies.
Its essential that your mother and/or father have a current durable power of attorney for both financial care and health care and a living will. The durable power of attorney (POA) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) waiver allows your parents to give you (or another trusted person; it doesnt have to be a lawyer) the right to make financial, legal and health decisions on their behalf.
Review your own financial situation. Assess all of your assets, liquid and otherwise. Figure out how much money you should pay for your childrens college and your retirement. You may want to create a financial plan, with a reputable financial planner, if possible.
Caring for your children
According to Pew Research, While the share of middle-aged adults living in the so-called sandwich generation has increased only marginally in recent years, the financial burdens associated with caring for multiple generations of family members are mounting. The increased pressure is coming primarily from grown children rather than aging parents . . . One likely explanation for the increase in the prevalence of parents providing financial assistance to grown children is that the Great Recession and sluggish recovery have taken a disproportionate toll on young adults. In 2010, the share of young adults who were employed was the lowest it had been since the government started collecting these data in 1948.
Here are some things to keep in mind as you try to balance your familys needs:
Avoid dipping into your retirement savings to pay for college. You can finance college; you cant finance your retirement.
If you have grown children returning home, make sure all your expectations have been shared with them. Dont be afraid to discuss employment and income goals as well as a target date for their departure.
Put yourself first. If youre part of the sandwich generation, youve got your hands full. Your natural inclination might be to serve yourself last, but that can jeopardize not only your financial health but also your physical and mental well-being. Get enough rest and relaxation regularly, and stay involved with your friends and interests. Finally, keep lines of communication open with your spouse, parents, children and siblings.
Check available benefits with the National Council on Aging. Visit https://www.benefitscheckup.org/ to find out which federal, state and local benefits your parents qualify for. Youll be surprised at the number of programs out there including those providing assistance with health-care and utility costs, as well as property tax relief available to middle-class families.
Then, check again: Screen here for government-benefits eligibility and get contact information for the programs youre interested in. Its best to fill out the questionnaires on both sites to ensure that youre not missing anything.

text: Let me start off by saying; as soon as I heard about this game I wanted to buy it. Thank God I didn't. This game requires a lot of strategy and is not easily one of those games you can just pick up, and play. This is not really a bad thing until you throw a little more dirt into the mix. The controls are spot on, and the powers are amazing if not a little creepy. I just had a hard time figuring out the storyline (besides being framed for the murder of the one you are to protect.) and how your character really fits into it. The combat. The part of the game that I was most looking forward to. It is not "bad" per say, but there is a LOT wrong with it. I remember sneaking behind an NPC to do a stealth kill only to alert him while performing the action. When you successfully get the stealth kill the game acts like it's in a hurry to get through it, and doesn't marvel in any of it's beauty. You've heard of the stealth attack where you jump from a building just to stab your victim in the head from above? Better get used to dieing a lot. Once again (repeat) The stealth aspect in this game is broke. I like stealth games. Games that do them well at least, and I am afraid to say that in my opinion this is not one of them. Regular combat is exciting, and challenging; consisting of left attack, right attack, and block. Use these commands with a challenging, and fun game and you have a winner. Here is what REALLY (and I do mean REALLY) kills the game. The !@#$ing loading screens. Did you die? Loading screen. Go 20 feet in one direction? Loading screen. Watch a cut scene? Loading screen!! If I were an unfair judge I would've given this game maybe two stars just because of the loading screen crap, but looking aat the game as a whole it is pretty fun, but the fun will pass quickly after beating the game one time.

Poll: Fifty percent of Americans shop with climate change on the mind
A new survey on attitudes toward climate change has discovered that half of all Americans at least occasionally consider environmental impacts when deciding whether or not to buy a product.
In April, researchers from the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication and the George Mason University Center for Climate Change Communication polled 1,045 adults over 18 years old.
With the exception of energy-efficient florescent light bulbs – which have become the norm – the number of Americans taking actions towards reducing energy use at home and on the road has remained relatively stable over the past five years.
Over two thirds of respondents intend to buy more energy-efficient items when making their next major purchase, such as: energy-efficient kitchen appliance (75 percent), home water heater (71 percent), home air conditioner (68 percent), or home furnace (67 percent). When buying a car, six in 10 are looking to get an average of at least 30 miles per gallon.
In terms of consumer behavior, in the past 12 months, 28 percent of respondents have bought products from companies taking steps to reduce global warming by buying their products, while 21 percent have refused to purchase products from companies opposing steps to reduce global warming.
Finally, with respect to education and involvement, in the past 12 months, one in four of those surveyed have discussed a company's irresponsible environmental behavior with friends or family; one in 10 has spread this information via the Internet. A further four out of 10 respondents would be willing to join a campaign about global warming.
In analyzing the data, researchers found that views on the issue of global warming could be categorized into six different groups based on similar beliefs, attitudes and behaviors about climate change.
The three largest groups – the Alarmed, Concerned and Cautious – constitute roughly two-thirds of the American public. Ranging in certainty about the reality of climate change, they are inclined to believe it is a real threat that needs to be addressed.
The Alarmed, at 16 percent, are certain global warming is occurring, understand that it is human-caused and strongly support societal action to reduce the threat. The Concerned, at 26 percent, are moderately certain global warming is occurring, harmful, and human-caused. They support societal action on climate change, but are unlikely to have engaged in political activism. Finally the Cautious, at 25 percent, are likely to believe climate change is real – but are not certain, and tend to view global warming as a distant threat.
The remaining third of the population have given the issue of global warming little to no thought (Disengaged), are uncertain whether global warming is occurring or not (Doubtful), or are certain global warming is not occurring (Dismissive).
One of the most important changes over time is that fewer people now believe that individual actions can substantially limit global warming, even if taken by the majority of people in developed countries.

"Christie has initiated 'Fast Track' handling at all levels within the administrative process to insure that exhibitors can take advantage of the industry's most simplified plan for making the move to DCI Compliant digital cinema," said Craig Sholder, vice president of Christie's Entertainment Solutions. "It's important for exhibitors to sign up on or before September 30, 2012 but once onboard they will still have until October 31, 2013 to make the physical conversion. During that time, they'll have complete flexibility in choosing the best financing option for their needs, thanks to Christie's highly flexible VPF program. We offer the widest financing options available, from self-financing to working out terms with one of our financing partners."
Sholder added: "The sooner one begins the conversion, the better, since VPF revenues will not be earned until one has converted at least 50 percent of one's complex. Exhibitors have nothing to lose and everything to gain by signing up with the Christie VPF program."
Christie's VPF program has been endorsed by all major Hollywood studios, including the Walt Disney Company, Twentieth Century Fox, Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures Entertainment and Warner Bros. The program has been recognized as giving exhibitors the greatest independence in planning a digital cinema conversion. As a result, more than 110 separate theater companies representing more than 1,500 screens across North America have enrolled in Christie's VPF Program to date.
Landmark Cinemas Typifies Satisfied Christie VPF Customer
Landmark Cinemas Inc., which operates 33 theaters in Canada, is among the many exhibitors already subscribed to the Christie VPF. It selected Christie Solaria® Series digital cinema projectors for all of its 100-plus screens throughout Western Canada and the Yukon. With the digital conversion completed, Landmark now shows 2D and 3D movies, live events and other alternative content.
"Christie has always been exceptionally committed to providing exhibitors with superior products and technical expertise," said Neil Campbell, chief operating officer, Landmark Cinemas. "We selected their VPF program because it provided us the ultimate in flexibility. Their technicians worked with our installation company, King Cinema Services, to ensure every conversion took place without any disruption in service."
As part of the VPF arrangements, Landmark worked with Christie in support of sourcing, integrating and testing hardware, enabling Christie to remotely monitor and manage Landmark's digital cinema projection environments.
"We are ready to roll today with signing and installations,"
Christie's VPF program is backed by more than 80 years of experience in the cinema industry. It offers expert support and flexible options for all phases of the digital conversion process. Solutions include DCI Compliant digital cinema projection systems and Christie's Network Operations Center (NOC) services, currently monitoring and supporting more than 110,000 devices in over 2,500 locations globally.

Dad behind bars for contacting kids
Posted: July 22, 2014|
A MAN has been jailed for 12 weeks after breaking the terms of his suspended sentence within 24 hours of them being imposed.
Stephen French was told by Burton Magistrates' Court on June 20 that he must not contact the mother of his children directly, and must make contact via a third party.
However, within a day of leaving court he sent her an email himself attempting to make contact with the children because he 'couldn't afford a solicitor'.
Later he sent a second email, and consequently, received two 12 -week sentences, one for each breach, to run concurrently.

Re: Minecraft 1:1 Scale Enterprise Refit/1701-A
The biggest hurdle I seem to be facing at the moment is where to fit in the turbolift shaft that comes down vertically through the dorsal fin. It follows the course of the vertical 'impulse core', but there's a horrible choke point where the dorsal fin meets the torpedo launchers. Because of this, if I want to keep the turbolift shaft going vertically down it has to stay really close to the impulse core:
I literally can't move the turbolift shaft any further back, because it'll then be outside of the hull. Any thoughts or suggestions on this?
Also, how are the crew supposed to get to the Torpedo Deck where the Airlocks are? I cannot see any logical place to put the turobolift doors without them opening onto either the vertical impulse core or the tracks the torpedos run along. Is there actually a different way into that section?
Blessed are the Geek, for they shall inherit Middle Earth.

YIELD: Serves 12
Heat the oven to 375°F. Place the flax and water in a small bowl and stir with a teaspoon. Set aside.
In a food processor, grind the graham crackers and oats into fine crumbs. Transfer to a separate bowl.
Using a clean coffee grinder, grind the pumpkin seeds. Add to the graham cracker mixture. Add the flax mixture and stir until a coarse meal forms. Press into the bottom and up the sides of an 8 x 8-inch pie plate.
In a large bowl, place the condensed milk, egg yolks, and lime zest and juice. Whisk well, until a thick, creamlike mixture forms. Pour over the unbaked graham crust and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until the edges are firm but the center still jiggles when you shake the pan. Remove from the oven and let cool 30 minutes. Decorate with kiwi slices. When the pie is fairly cool, cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours, before serving.
Chef's Note Add a spoonful of nonfat Greek yogurt to dress up your dessert even more (and sneak in another superfood!).

Peppers, Kiedis celebrate with energetic show
Anthony Kiedis is living proof that 50 is the new 20.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman turned a half-century-old in Milwaukee Thursday, celebrating the occasion with his band and a primarily full BMO Harris Bradley Center. Initially wearing a formal black jacket with tails, it wasn't long before he was shirtless. And very rarely, if at all Thursday, was he still - whether he was spinning around like a karate master caught in a cyclone or busting out his own interpretation of PSY's "Gangnam Style" galloping horse shuffle - and those moves were during just one song, "Around The World." (Fans brought their own special moves as well, at least in section 407 where I sat; at one point, I found myself completely smashed between two full-body dancers with no concept of personal space.) »Read Full Article(6)
A weekend in Milwaukee for TV's Adam Richman
Adam Richman, late of the eating-challenge show "Man v. Food," has been filming around Milwaukee this weekend for his new show on the Travel Channel, "Fandemonium."
It's a show centered on uber-fan gatherings around the country and this weekend has been focused on the Milwaukee Brewers and Miller Park (the Brewers put out a call awhile back, seeking "superfans" with elaborate tailgating operations for filming this weekend). »Read Full Blog Post
Riverwest 24 gets neighborhood rolling
Riverwest is just one exceedingly cool neighborhood, but never as much as during the Riverwest 24, an around-the-clock, full-day bike ride. Born through the movement of community block watches, the event is fun whether you're riding or not. It also brings new faces into the neighborhood, strengthens ties among neighbors and encourages the notion of urban biking.
Described as an "exercise in stamina, teamwork and merriment," the Riverwest 24, or RW24 for short, starts at 7 p.m. Friday and ends at 7 p.m. Saturday. »Read Full Article
Etheridge's voice adds spice to musical comfort food
Melissa Etheridge has definitely had an interesting life: coming out, becoming a mother, recovering from breast cancer. Saturday night at the Riverside Theater, she mentioned being cancer-free for nine years, but her performance was almost entirely informed by being a girl from Kansas who was raised on classic rock, rather than by her later experiences.
Playing for more than two hours, Etheridge clearly wanted her show to be as much about the music as possible. She touched on pretty much every minor and major hit, and the resulting set was like a huge meal of ham and eggs, burgers and fries or any other basic meat-and-potatoes combination. »Read Full Article(5)

MFS crews isolate gas leak at Marion Shopping Centre that forced the evacuation of shoppers and staff from Kmart
- From: The Advertiser
- July 16, 2014
A GAS leak forced the evacuation of shoppers and staff from Kmart at Marion Shopping Centre.
Metropolitan Fire Service crews were called to the Westfield shopping centre on Diagonal Rd at Oaklands Park, about 9.40am.
Gas is believed to have leaked from a plant room near Kmart.
About 30 shoppers and staff were evacuated as a precaution while authorities isolated the leak and ventilated the area.
They have now been allowed to return and the shopping centre is operating as normal.

Some young actresses may have qualms about taking on a role as a stripper, but not Kristen Stewart!
"I was dying to do this part for a really long time," she told E! News at last night's premiere of Welcome to the Rileys in NYC.
But the Twilight star admits that it was a challenging role:
MORE: Kristen's jetsetting weekend
"It was not the easiest character to play. It took a while to get made," she said of the indie movie, which first premiered at Sundance, "I think it's a good thing I grew up a little bit, because I wasn't scared. It was an intimidating part to take on."
But it sounds like Kristen nailed it. When she was at a strip club doing research for the role, she got offered a job on the spot!
"Like, I went to a strip club with the director and the costume designer and it being an odd grouping of people going into a strip club in the middle of the afternoon, I was, like, straight-up offered a job," she told MTV News.
It sounds like this character-driven movie is a nice change of pace for the Twilight star, who's ready to shoot Breaking Dawn in New Orleans.
"I've been talking about this movie [Rileys] for two days and I'm so not sick of it. Not that I get sick of talking about Twilight, but sometimes I repeat myself," she explained.
Aww, it's clear Kristen is still a little shy during interviews, but didn't she look gorgeous at last night's premiere? We love her red lipstick and lacy minidress!
PHOTOS: See how K. Stew's style has evolved!

Bring back ElecTronica and Flynn's
I loved Flynn's because I love '80s arcades and '80s arcade games. On a personal level I would love dearly if Flynn's was installed as a permanent fixture.
But that definitely doesn't translate to "need". You could make just as strong of an argument for any other semi-successful franchise Disney's ever owned.
I want those tron lightcycles on the peoplemover tracks!
I could see Tron working in Tomorrowland. Heck put something Tron related in place of Innoventions. I do kind of like the idea of the cycles on the People Mover track, but then think of Rocket Rods and know that it will suffer from the same problems and will be a colosal failure for Disney in terms of upkeep. As far as Electronica, well, I walked by it a few times and it was somewhat cool... I guess. It just absolutely killed the look of Hollywood Land and was a horrible eyesore during the day. The whole club atmosphere and DJ, I hated. And the thing is, I attend Mad T Party sometimes multiple times a week (I happen to know one of the Alices), and I love the band, but I can't stand the club atmosphere between when the band plays. I do like the House of Cards stage and the dancers, but the club atmosphere sucks. Yet I think that the Mad T Party fits better than Electronica because it's kind of hidden and allows Hollywood Land to keep it's atmosphere during the day. I also think it works better because you have the club atmosphere for people who like that, the dancers for people who like that, and the band for people like me that like that, so it is well thought out and fits many people. Whereas Electronica fit the club people only. But if you wanted to theme Tomorrowland to a Tron theme, that would be awesome visually and work very well.
I love Tron. It's one of my favorite movies. But, elecTRONica was a giant mistake made by Disney... they should've just added something in at Tomorrowland...
Just look at this world and the possibilities with Tomorrowland.
Tron has nothing to do with the theme of DCA.
Slight being the operative word ;)

Though women surveyed said that effectiveness was one of the most important factors when considering permanent birth control, many women who are done having children are continuing to rely on less effective methods like condoms, which have a 15 percent commercial failure rate,1 or the Pill, which has an 8 percent commercial failure rate.1
In comparison, a 10-year global study being released at the AAGL meeting explores the data of the commercial use of Essure by approximately 500,000 women and tracks closely with Essure's clinical effectiveness rate of 99.8 percent.*
About the Survey and Methodology
The online survey was conducted by Harris Interactive among 1,006 women age 28-48 who have at least one child and are married or in a committed relationship. Respondents for this survey were selected from among those who have agreed to participate in Harris Interactive surveys. Because the sample is based on those who have agreed to participate in the Harris Interactive online research panel, no estimates of theoretical sampling error can be calculated. Online interviews took place between August 30 and September 6, 2011. Results were weighted for race/ethnicity, education, household income, region and employment status. This survey was commissioned by HealthyWomen and supported by an educational grant from Conceptus, Inc.
About the Essure Procedure
The Essure procedure, FDA approved since 2002, is the first permanent birth control method that can be performed in the comfort of a physician's office in less than 10 minutes (average hysteroscopic time) without hormones, cutting, burning or the risks associated with general anesthesia or tubal ligation. Soft, flexible inserts are placed in a woman's fallopian tubes through the cervix without incisions. Over the next three months, the body forms a natural barrier around a

What is a Webcam?
Learn what's a WebCam and how to set up one easily!
OK, you found webcamworld.com but you still wonder: "What Is a WebCam??"
The answer is quite simple: a Web page which hosts images or even live video streams served by a digital Camera attached to a computer. Thus, a WebCam.
The WebCam technology has now become quite popular since first WebCams hit the World Wide Web. Back in the past only a few had the technology and the resources to keep a camera refreshing an image 24 hours a day and face up high costs and other serious problems.
Now, for less than $100 and an Internet dial-up connection, you can set up your own camera on the Internet.
If you surf the Web (and more accurately, WebCam directories like WebCam World), you'll discover thousands of different places and people that have a thing in common: a WebCam in their lives. You'll find cameras pointing to beaches, gardens, offices, parking lots, bedrooms; some of them will be user-controllable, some of them won't; some of them will be black and white, some others will be colorful; some slow, some fast... but the truth is that the spirit of having a Cam in all these people's lifes is the most important thing.
Leaving fun aside, you can also use this (relative) new technology for remote surveillance systems, monitoring events/places and broadcasting live events!
Set up your own WebCam!
As said, setting up your own WebCam is quite easy: it just requires a computer, a WebCam (the hardware) and a WebCam software along with an Internet connection. As usual, the faster the better. Before you decide which camera to buy and which software to acquire, you'll learn which different methods we have to show up pictures or video feed through the Internet, so you decide which hardware and software solution will fit your situation best.
Now that you know what a WebCam is, you may want to start a short Guided Tutorial in which you can learn how a WebCam works and how to get this technology working for you accordingly to your resources and needs. So, in addition to our collection of FREE services, we offer you a full tutorial to the WebCam technology:
These pages and its tutorial contains EVERYTHING you need to know about a WebCam, what do you need (hardware, software and add-ons), which techniques to use and even on-line demonstrations of true live operating WebCams and templates for you to choose and download; so whenever you end reading the tutorial, you'll have your WebCam up and running ready for your audience!
Let's start with the tutorial! Please continue to the first lesson!

Hotel du Mail (or Le Mail): Better than it looks
We paid 240 FF in 1994 for a double room with ensuite bathroom. The room was at the front but we had no problems with traffic. Walkable from the train station.
It doesn't look much but it a good hotel and larger than you think. Also interesting for business people. The restaurant was VERY good. Do check the restaurant tip.

Stephen & Rebekah Hren: Obama Sees the Light! Solar Coming to the White House
Posted By admin On October 7, 2010 @ 12:00 pm In Building & Energy,Renewable Energy | Comments Disabled
In the pantheon of cool presidents, this put him beneath Jimmy Carter, and probably lower than old codgers like the two Roosevelts. Well we're happy to report he had a change of heart! We like to think Michelle got wind of this lemon of a decision and gave her beau a nice good boot to the rump. Solar for Everyone!
Even George W. Bush put up solar at the White House grounds, including the first ever solar electric system, coming in at around 9kW. Carter's were just solar water heater panels, but they were actually on the White House, an important symbolic gesture that represented a belief in the future of the technology that Bush's squirreled away PV didn't give. In fact, it's believed that the sole purpose of Bush's solar electric system was actually to remotely power Cheney's robot brain, stored many miles beneath the swamp of Washington. This article appeared originally at The Carbon-Free Home [2] blog. Stephen and Rebekah Hren are the authors of, most recently, A Solar Buyer's Guide for the Home and Office [3], available now.

An American Western Classic 2010 Edition
This all started a year ago. My buddy Noel (ImGoin) got a wild hair up his butt and built a bike, did a good portion of the CDT and then turned around and did the Western half of the TAT. He did this without my permission. I joke here as he is successful in his self employed endeavor. Read that as he can take off for important things …..like riding. I do have lots of vacation but getting big chunks at a time is just unheard of. I have been reading ride reports on here for a long time and the TAT has been but a dream for this 45 yr old until now. Early this year Noel asks me how much time CAN I get off? I tell him two weeks is pushing it. This is the foundation for the trip.
I have a new general manager at work who I hope I have made a good impression on as I know he has denied most vacations requested longer than a week. I plead my case and tell him what I am doing. I get 17 glorious days for Noel to work with.
Im sure Noel was pouring over maps for awhile cooking up the PLAN. In the end he settled on combining what he thought was the best portions of the TAT/CDT. Our handler, Priscilla (Noel's wife) was going to drop us off at Denio Jct NV and we would ride the TAT east from there until we crossed the CDT in Salida Co. From there we would head south on the CDT deep into southern NM. Finally, we would hotfoot it over to Roswell NM where Priscilla would pick us up for a one day return to our North Texas digs. If we did it right, we would have 3k rolling under our tires on the bikes.
The PLAN was about to change. Change came in the form of a grand reunion with an old high school friend. I hadn't seen him in 5 years and it was great to get reacquainted. He came by to show me his bitching new Challenger (with a supercharger). I showed him my bike collection. We wheeled a couple out for him to try. I got a message the next morning saying what a bad influence I am as he was signing papers on an XR. Truth be told, Im not popular with bunch of wifes and mothers of my friends.
Noel and I were to do a shakedown in AR in late August and we invited Rod (Big Rod1) and another high school buddy Chris. Trip went great and Rod was hooked.
Now that Rod was hooked, it wasn't hard to talk him into going with us. That meant Rod was going to be a busy boy on the internet and giving his credit card a workout. I call him RockStar Rod because he offered to roll out the Bus. A very nice bus akin to RockStar usage. He wanted to haul us to NV and drop us off. The plan was for him to ride a day or two with us and then hit pavement to retrieve the bus and push ahead of us to do it again. He thought ten days would be plenty for him. And so it that's how this deal got started.
OK. So this is us.
I am tx246 aka Gene in this story. I am 45 and have ridden offroad for a long time. Im not an expert but I think Im proficient. I also do street on a Vstrom. Im also the midget on this trip.
This is Noel and he has dirt in his DNA. This was passed on to his off spring who is a good enough rider to qualify midpack for the infamous Red Bull Last Man Standing event held in our backyard. Lets see if Noel has the link for AJs post.
This is Rod and his bike background ended in his 20s but has found out that he has wasted 20yrs by not riding.
Finally, there is Shadow Man who shows up here and there.
Now for the equipment we will be sitting on, standing, picking up or depending on to move us from one place to another.
This is my ride. Dusty is a 2000 DRZ 400s. Big tank. Big bars. Skidplate. Radiator Protectors. Case savers. Yosh exhaust.
This is Noels bike. I think it's a 2005 KTM 525exc that has been punched out to a 540. Lots of internal and external mods. Ill let Noel tell you about them. This bike attracted more than its fair share of attention from spectators.
This is Rods bike and it's a 2010 XR 650l. He has added big tank. Big Bars. Skidplate. Carb and FMF exhaust. Stickers are all aftermarket.
We all used Giant Loop bags. Noel used a Wolfman tank bag. Rod used a GL tank bag and I stored a lot of stuff in my PeakBagger Camelbak.
Navigation was courtesy of Garmin. I had a 76 and they used 60s.
Both Noel and Rod had SPOTs to keep their families happy. I used a cell phone every couple of days.
All bikes were wearing new Dunlop 606s.
This is our ticket to Nevada………….or so we thought.

Its Wed afternoon and I am ready to rock. We have a long drive and the rain has been pouring like we should be building a boat for two of everything. I head on over to Noels where we go over the LIST to make sure we havent forgotten anything. Rod soon arrives and we hook the bike trailer to the Bus. We make our way thru squalls on our westward bound route.
We are on the way.
Noel acting as copilot.
Still wet
Not raining but cloudy.
We soon settle in because its gonna take two days to get to NV. I try to sleep a bit in the back. I dont have a bed in the back of my truck. We soon hit I40 and point the Bus to Albuquerque.
Noel diluting bug guts at a fuel stop.
I wake up noticing that we are proceeding at a slower pace. Making my way to the cockpit I find some looks of concern. Seems we have picked up a vibration. Anything over 50mph and it worsens. We are two hours out of Albuquerque and have little choice but to continue. Finally, the desert city shows up and we arrive at 4 am and pull into the local WalMart rest stop for some shut eye.
Its soon 7ish and we make our way out of the Bus to see if we can locate the problem. Noel is experienced with large vehicles but this thing is on another scale. It isnt long before he notices this.
That cap isnt right.
I check the ujoints and they look OK. Noel keeps looking and finds this.
That shouldnt be rubbing.
What the hell is that? Noel points at what is ultimately the problem and what a scary problem it is.
Wow, the only thing holding up that side of the vehicle is the clamping force of the ubolts keeping the now two piece control arm in place. The Bus is done and getting her fixed is gonna be a chore.
Rod starts off by calling the folks at Good Sam and they get on it. We hook up Wifi and cruise the internet. Phone call after phone call results in nada. Nobody wants to touch it.
Lookin for something
I think this is good news.
I am going through the owners manual filebox and there is a brochure that has RockyMtn Coach (or something to that effect). They say sure bring it on over. This HAS to work. We find them and lo and behold there is motor coaches in the yard and on the lifts. Rod does business with the counter while Noel and I have been brainstorming for continued transport. We are dialing the Uhauls of the world and nobody wants to rent a truck. We cant even find a small mover. Noel locates a location that says they have a van and Rodney and Noel hop on the bikes and have a looksee.
They get there and while on the phone we are told it has a receiver hitch, in reality it does not. CRAP!
While they are chasing butterflies, Im considering the options. Oh yeah, somehow they got lost on the way back. It is proving to be an adventure. In my mind I tell myself that we are going to abandon THE PLAN and move to PLAN B.

Screw it! Im ready to ride. As I downloaded the track on everybodys GPS, I noted that our route shows just 50 miles or so West of here. They are still trying to find their way back to the garage and I have already made my mind up to hit the road today. I start cleaning up the coach and drag all of my stuff out in the parking lot. Nobody was 100% ready to ride as we thought we were going to have two days dinking around in the Bus on our way to NV. Another consideration was boom just like that this ride went from being semi supported to no support. That means once we leave, we gotta have it with us. I had packed lighter stuff for the original NV starting point in the way of clothes and outerwear and planned to add the heavy stuff as we left Utah. Now I had to carry it all.
Packing food and essentials
I am just about done when they finally pull up. I pull Noel aside and ask him what he thinks about PLAN B. He replies that he had the same thoughts on the way back from the Uhaul. It was almost 3PM already and he thought it would be best to start in the AM. I showed him that it was only an hour ride to Grant where we could pick up the trail. The idea of riding got the best of him and we sold Rod PLAN B with little effort. The main thing was to get the Bus assessed by a mechanic and get confirmation that they could get it done. Rod went back inside and came out with the service advisor. The problems were pointed out and he said it was a straight forward repair if he had the part. Calls were made and the part would soon be on its way. GREAT NEWS!!!! Let the thrash begin. Gear started flying out of the bus immediately.
Load em up.
Rod is digging it.
Im ready
Noel getting strapped up.
Rod getting geared to go.
Its 4:30 and we are tired of Albuquerque. Time to move on. We are already on the west side of town and I40 is but an entrance ramp away. D/S bikes are great until you are on 4lane. We ran 60mph, but most of the traffic was like the ideal day with the average in the upper 70s and low 80's. We plodded along into a headwind and my bike was not jetted for this elevation. I had leaned it out for 7000ft or better and we were well below that. As a result, I didn't want to push it. As yall know Route 66 intermingles with I40 and we kept seeing pieces of it right there beside 40 but there always seemed to be a fence in the way. After 20 miles or so I see a road on the GPS that parallels the highway for awhile. I decide to take it and take a break from the hectic traffic. There is the exit and lo and behold there is a sign stating Rt66.
Getting off the highway is a relief. We make the turn on a decidedly unimproved road that is in plain site of the highway and make our way west. It isn't long before I see a set of red/blue lights on a SUV on the highway side of the fence. Uh Oh. There is a guy jumping the fence and making a beeline for the road we are on. CRAP!! I pull up and meet Officer Lopez who isn't very happy with our dirtbikes. The conversation went like this.
Do you know where you are?
No sir. I thought I was on RT66 like the sign indicated on the last exit.
You are trespassing! Where are you from?
Texas sir.
You are on Laguna Reservation. Do you know you are trespassing?
No sir but obviously Im not where Im supposed to be.
Where are you going?
Grants sir.
You are on the Laguna Reservation.
Sorry sir.
(Rod and Noel have made Uturns and headed from where we came)
Why are you on this road?
I thought it was Rt66.
Its not! You are trespassing!
Yes sir.
Where are you from?
Texas sir and trying to get to Grants on what I thought was Rt66.
Ok. Rt 66 is on the other side of the highway.
The conversation got much better and he gave me directions to our intended route. He went from yelling to Have a Nice Day in 2min.
Soon we found our little slice of Rt66 and Noel got some shots.
We dump back on I40 and continue with the slab.
We reach Grant in the early evening and follow Noel up Zuni Canyon Rd. It is a beautiful road and we wind our way back away from civilization. Soon we bail off the road into a secluded hollow to unload the bikes. Im noticing the fresh cutting and tree trimmings to go along with the shorter than normal grass. On cue, a big brindle Rot/Boxer mix comes out of nowhere barking its head off. It is obviously someones dog and lives close by. Im thinking another potential trespassing incident as the dog leaves. We unload and tents are pitched. Next objective is to find some fuel to make one of these.
We open our stashes and snack our way through the evening. We are all beat and are soon parallel to the ground.
As the sun comes up, so does Noel. Write that down as fact. Everybody is soon up and moving around to keep the morning chill at a minimum. We quickly break camp as this is the first real travel day of the trip.
Tearing down the lodge.
Rod and his brush around the tent. Supposed to be an early bear detection feature.
Noel is just about done.
Rod is yelling something about I know it will go in this bag.
Look who shows up not barking.
She is telling me that the day is going to be good.
Noel has us backtracking down the road to see something that shows up in Google Earth.
This is the road we are on.
And this is what he wanted us to see.
Note the sign above my head.
Rod and I breaking the law.
The lava flows were cool but our stomachs were demanding breakfast. So we hopped on the bikes and flew back up Zuni towards Grants. It looked like this.
Standing still.
At speed.
Go Go Pro!
Noel led us to this little joint.
Awesome burrito.
Note us inside waiting for our food. Noel is coming out of a very interesting door combo that leads to the dumping ground. Very good breakfast but we are burning daylight and make for the hills north of Grants. Rumor has it there is some elevation ahead.

Pic of AB (Awesome Burrito)
Before we hit dirt, gotta fuel up.
The 10 megaton warhead was not going to stop us. Nice try.
We entered the NF and started climbing. The weather was perfect and there was just a bit of breeze but 3 bikes kick up dust and we needed to stop and take care of Rods air filter. In our rush to get off the bus, we failed to install a filter skin. This item is a must. Every 3 days you get a brand new air filter with a quick yank.
Noel leading us uphill.
Getting that air filter taken care of while I wander around and take some pictures.
Don't know why, but thought it was interesting.
Could see something out there but the view was obscured.
Rod checked out the inside of the facility and made a comment about how tough the door was as only two rounds had penetrated.
Noel led us up to "The Fly" on this road.
Rod doing the Fly thing.
I follow and it isn't long before we are all at the top. Of course if it a high enough mountain, there will always be equipment and in this case there was plenty. The road up was fun. On the pegs and on the gas. Rod and Noel talked to some from the Hunting clan. They had made it up on their ATVs. They dressed the part but I thought they had on way too many clothes. You decide.
Well, what did you decide?
Rod at the top of The Fly.
A look back at the road.
This is for you with wide screens.
This is for regular.
Pretty nice view eh. I wanna be a Texas/Canadian
View off the backside
Small version.
If you look carefully in the flats and see that cone coming out of the ground, we will be there in a bit.
On the way down, I had to shoot some trees. Aspens are always good to shoot. Don't know what they taste like but still good to shoot.
It wasn't long before the Pines went away and the temps got hotter. The terrain changed back to its good old high desert self.
Here comes Rod. Look a no hander.
After letting Rod through, he pulls up and his bike needs an adjustment.
I pulled up to a gate and a bunch of horses took off from the water trough. Only when they were this far away did I realize…………..
They are in the center of the pic making a dust cloud.
Remember that Cone I was talking about on top of the Fly? Here it is.
We were entering gates regularly now. The road was a D/S delight. Rough, rutted and sandy in places. There was evidence of rain though.
DRZ trucking along.
Action shot of Noel. Here he comes
And there he goes on the Dakar looking KTM
Almost gone.
I turn it up in this valley as it feels like trail. Im whooping it up and railing but a close call where a wash out sucked a hole from the middle of the road almost got me. That would of sucked. I check myself as I keep reminding myself that I am a long way from home and have a long way to go. We get out of the valley and climb on a little mesa. Noel pulls off the road and I mean off the road.
Noels bike doesn't want to play with us anymore. Turns out we have a mechanical. Kickstand has kicked the ground for the last time. From now on the KTM will be leaning on things.
We soon make it to Cuba where we find this to eat.
KTM doing guard duty.
Man, we just came out of the desert and were looking to get indoors to cool off. But not at this store. It was cooler outside so we sat on the ground and leaned up on a big cottonwood to eat Jarod sandwiches. They got snacks and I went to the liquor store before leaving town. Noel led us back into the NF and boy there were a bunch of good looking sites to camp but Noel ran into Rainbow crazies in this area last year so he wanted to push on. It was a great evening ride. The road was twisty and we were back in the green.
To avoid crazies, we off roaded down a cow trail ¼ mile and hid back up in a meadow. Camp was set quickly and we let the day soak in around the campfire.
Another kickass day.
We did have a mechanical that night. Rods Tristool blew out on him but it was put back together with good ole zipties. Fire wound down and we burrowed in our down sleeping bags as it is cold at 9000ft.
More in a bit.
