Potentially dangerous dogs: do breed-specific bans actually work?
Several communities across the country are banning certain breeds, including pit bulls. Do such bans make communities safer?
TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - Bring up the topic of pit bulls and public safety in our community, and you're sure to spark a passionate debate from all sides especially after 9 On Your Side's recent report on The Truth About Pit Bulls and whether they're dangerous. The intense debate prompted some KGUN 9 viewers to call for a pit bull ban, while others argued passionately in defense of their pets.
In Arizona, any dog breed is fair game and legal to own. But that is not true in many other places. An estimated 300 cities across the country have banned certain breeds, including the pit bull or any dog that resembles the pit. 9 On Your Side wants to know, do those bans work?
Don Bauermeister, Assistant City Attorney in Council Bluffs, Iowa was quick to speak with KGUN 9 about how their pit bull ban came about in 2004 and the affect that it has had on the community. He says that it's the most controversial law the city has ever passed.
"It seemed to be almost on a weekly basis and a few times a month, the pace of serious pit bull attacks in our community was out of control" said Bauermeister. After the ban was passed, no new pit bulls were allowed in Council Bluffs and by now they're nearly non existent.
He studied other bans, like the one in Denver passed in 1989. It reads, "The mere possession of pit bulls poses a significant threat to the health, welfare and safety of Denver citizens". One of the problems that comes up when proposing a ban on pit bulls is that it's less of a breed and more of a type of dog, with no specific widely accepted test to prove a dog's identity as a pit bull. Further, many dogs that look like pits really are pit mixes and crossbreeds. The Denver law gets around all that by defining a pit bull as any dog that is an American Pit bull Terrier, Staffordshire Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier or any dog displaying the majority of the physical traits of these breeds as established by American and United Kennel Club standards. Today, owning one of these dogs in Denver is illegal.
What happened in Denver was upsetting to Raymond Serrao. He now lives near Casa Grande but used to live near Denver with his dog, Ilio who was a Patterdale Terrier/Labrador mix. Serrao showed KGUN 9 photos of Ilio who resembled a pit bull.
"Do you think they would've taken your dog?" asked Reporter Tammy Vo.
"Possibly" said Serrao. His problem with banning breeds is misidentification. He believes, bad pit bulls shouldn't have to pay for bad owners and points to an article from the National Canine Research Council, a group against banning breeds. It writes, "Denver has not seen any appreciable difference in the number or severity of dog bite related injuries compared to cities without breed bans."
"Everywhere that bans have been done, it has either had no discernible difference or has made things worse as far a bites go" added Serrao. The group Pit n' Proud of Tucson agrees.
"As you know, Pit n' Proud is strongly opposed to Breed Specific Legislation and policies. Quite frankly, they're ineffective and punish innocent people and pets. BSL is usually enacted as a knee-jerk reaction to a highly publicized severe dog bite or fatality. BSL is an attempt to pacify the public, but does not address the real factors behind dog bites and attacks," said Rachel Molyneux of Pit n' Proud.
Those are some opinions. What are the actual facts?
To find out, KGUN 9 contacted five cities that banned pit bulls, at random, to find out whether the bans have increased public safety. Kansas City now requires pits to be spayed or neutered. The idea, says animal control, that "it would reduce pit bull aggression". Since the ordinance in 2004, dog bites and pit bull attacks went up then down.
Garfield Heights, Ohio banned pit bulls in 2007. Since the ban, dog bites, in general have gone up.
South Milwaukee banned pit bulls in 1989. Since then, dog attacks went down by a third and then went back up.
Denver city officials tell KGUN that they don't have statistics going back to 1989 when the ban began, but Doug Kelley from Denver's Environmental Health office said: "City Council passed the ban in 1989 to protect public safety and there hasn't been a death or severe mauling by a Pit Bull since the ordinance was enacted. However, we recognize some other cities have since taken alternative approaches to implementing a breed ban that have also been effective at protecting public safety."
"Does this kind of legislation work?" Vo asked Bauermeister.
"There's no question it has worked," he answered, adding that overall dog bites have gone down in Council Bluffs since the ban and provided data indicating that pit attacks are nearly non existent. He insists, it isn't about which dogs bite, it's about which ones cause the most damage.
"Any dog can bite. Any dog can have a bad day. So, for 99 percent of this dogs life it's a good family dog but one day if it snaps, the damage is so severe. That is the justification," said Bauermeister.
Countries like the United Kingdom and parts of Canada have banned the pit bull but others like Italy and the Netherlands recently reversed their bans saying that they had no scientific basis and didn't really drop dog bites.
What about in Tucson? Plenty of pit owners have been vocal on KGUN 9's Facebook page, opposing these laws. But others are pushing for city council to ban the bulls here. Could it ever happen?
Not if it were totally up to Councilman Steve Kozachik. "I have a problem with breed specific legislation," Kozachik told KGUN9 News. "To take a broad brush and say this breed, we're going to get rid of it, is an overstretch." He believes that citations can force dog owners to be more responsible.
Tucson does have a law that says if a dog is declared vicious, its owner must take action. That action can include: confining or muzzling the dog, getting it spayed or neutered, posting signs and carrying liability insurance. But Kozachik says, this has never happened because the process is so tedious.
The landmark 2000 dog bite study by the Centers for Disease Control also pointed toward regulation of human behavior, not breed specific bans, as the appropriate answer. The authors wrote, "Because of difficulties inherent in determining a dog's breed with certainty, enforcement of breed-specific ordinances raises constitutional and practical issues."
That study also found that pit bull type dogs, followed by Rottweilers, were responsible for more than half of fatal attacks on humans during the time period immediately preceding the study. But it also noted that the types of breeds responsible for such attacks tends to vary over time. For instance, in the mid to late seventies, German Shepherds, not pit bulls, were responsible for the largest number of fatal attacks on people.
But it's not just city governments that pit bull fans have to worry about. KGUN9 News discovered that an increasing number of apartments and home owners' associations in Tucson are are banning certain breeds, including the pit bull.
The debate no doubt will rage on, as it has been all week on KGUN9's Facebook page even before this story was published. But the bottom line so far seems to be that the evidence on whether breed specific legislation does what it's supposed to do -- reduce dog bites and increase public safety - is inconclusive at best, at least for now.
What do you think, do breed bans work in increasing public safety? You can comment on this article or on our Facebook page.

Have you ever wondered what humans looked like millions of years ago? Take a trip back in time and make the journey to Sangiran, home of the Java man to find out.
The story of Java Man begins over a century ago. In 1890, a Dutch military physician and paleontologist Eugene Dubois discovered a fossilized primate jawbone at Trinil further east down the Solo river. This jawbone possessed distinctly human characteristics. Dubois was convinced that this was Darwin's "missing link" in the evolution of man but lacked the evidence to prove his theory.
Nearly 50 years later, Berlin born paleontologist G H R von Koenigswald, unearthed a fossilized 'java man' or homo erectus jawbone in Sangiran. This was a much older fossil, dating back over a million years or more. Dubois was right. Java man was the proof he had needed that homo erectus existed in Java about as early as in Africa.
Today, scientists recognize that homo erectus, which inhabited the earth between 1.7 million to 250,000 years ago, are the direct ancestors of homo sapiens (modern human beings).
It's believed that Java man probably made his home in caves or in open camps and it's likely that he was the first humanoid that used fire. He also used stone axes and hand-adzes, most of which were discovered by the Baksoka River near Pacitan.
The Sangiran area is rich in fossils of all types. Along with Indonesia's temples of Borobudur and Prambanan, Sangiran's significance means it has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.

Taking Steps Toward Global Change at UN Conference in Bonn
More than 1,500 people – grassroots representatives from over 100 countries – gathered in Bonn, Germany, September 3-5 for the United Nations' Department of Public Information/Non-Governmental Organization Annual Conference. The conference revolved around the theme of "Sustainable Societies, Responsive Citizens."
The participants, representing 600 different NGOs, shared best practices, displayed their efforts in an exhibition hall, and forged documents that will be integrated into next year's Rio+20, the UN Conference on Environment and Development.
Fairtrade International brought the perspective of farmers and workers in developing countries to the discussion table. Interim Head of Communications Jennifer Stapper coordinated media efforts at the conference and other Fairtrade staff volunteered.
Gelkha Buitrago, Policy Manager at Fairtrade International, organized a workshop on Fairtrade's efforts on gender equality highlighting the efforts of a Congolese coffee cooperative in and the important role of women in that organization.
Student journalists attending the conference also produced stories on conference presentations, "A well kept secret, fair trade is going global," and "Sustainable below the belt," a profile of Pants to Poverty, a creative that sells undergarments ethically produced with Fairtrade cotton.
The entire conference highlighted how impact begins with interested individuals. Bruce Crowther, Founder of the Fair Trade Towns movement, presented a recipe for change in his presentation on the innovative movement that is changing the buying habits of entire communities.
"When we talk about sustainable development, we have to take people into consideration," said Crowther, also Founder of Garstan Oxfam Group. "Real change happens when ordinary people light that first spark and it spreads and burns throughout."
Fairtrade played a large role at the conference as just one effort for bringing the attention of the world to the plight of farmers and workers and contributed to the final declaration that will be presented to the UN General Assembly.
"With any change we hope to make in the world, sustainable livelihoods need to be considered first," said Jennifer Stapper. "Fairtrade helps ensure a sustainable livelihood. If farmers and workers can take care of their families, they can then focus on their local environment and continue pushing for greater sustainability."

|Smoke Inflames Valle Crucis Neighbors
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 10 September 2012 12:18
A number of Valle Crucis neighbors, living near a Christmas Tree Farm, are upset burning of trees there late last week and over issues about other use of the tract. Their angst was peaked Friday and Saturday as a large fire filled the area with choking smoke,
prompting calls to local and state officials. The property is that of Carroll Garland, according to neighbors Kincheloe Hard and Paul Siegmund, who say the fire at the Dewitt Barnett Road property was causing problems especially for those with breathing issues. The Hards said they contacted both the Fire Marshal's office and the State Health office in Winston-Salem over the fire, and were told their complaints were being 'researched,' but one described the fire as if a bomb had gone off and described a 'toxic yellow smoke,' while Siegmund took pictures and submitted them to officials and GoBlueRidge.net. Neighbor Paul Siegmund said that, "Even though the fire is out, there still remains smoke from the smoldering ashes, especially in the evening and early morning when we experience a natural temperature inversion," and more smoke pictures from today were also submitted. Neighbor Faye Cooper said, "It definitely has been an issue in the Valle and also affected us personally as we have had smoke in our house as well as we are above the burn site."
Meeting with Carroll Garland today, he showed me results of an NC State study of the trees on the Valle Crucis and another tract he owns, indicating that a good number of his trees were afflicted with the same disease killing many hemlocks in the mountains, and that the only solution offered by the state was to burn the trees, which he was ordered to do. Garland said he probably lost in the neighborhood of 1000 trees to the blight, many of them larger trees, and he said he waited until a line of rain was moving in to minimize the effect on the neighbors, but had to take the action. He also pointed out that his daughter's property is the closest to the tree farm. Other matters neighbors brought up about the property included a dumpsite on the property and a waste system that is sometimes flooded by heavy rains. To those issues, Donna Lisenby of Watauga Riverkeepers responded to the neighbors that she would "investigate whether there is polluted runoff from the site into the river," and was asking for more specific data about the location of the potential runoff into the Watauga River. For now, it appears that most of the smoke that started the most recent controversy is settling, but that other issues are still being raised.

Softball Blanks Southern Illinois 5-0 to Win Series
OMAHA, Neb. – The Creighton softball team blanked Southern Illinois 5-0 Sunday afternoon at the CU Sports Complex to claim it fifth-straight series in Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) play.
Creighton (26-12, 12-3 MVC) scored five runs on a dozen hits. The Bluejays added to an early 1-0 lead in the bottom of the third with back-to-back solo home runs from senior Amy Baker and junior Alexis Cantu. Southern Illinois (20-24, 8-10 MVC) used three pitchers but could not find an answer to stop the Jays' offense. The first-place Bluejays remained 1.5 games ahead of second-place Drake after the Bulldogs fell at Bradley.
Each of Creighton's nine starters produced a hit on the day. Cantu and freshman Kelsey Allender led the CU bats with two hits apiece. Both of Cantu's hits were solo home runs with an additional homer in the bottom of the fifth.
Junior Becca Changstrom pitched a complete-game win. She kept SIU off the scoreboard and only allowed three hits on the day. It marked her 11th double-digit strikeout performance of the season.
Changstrom started in the circle for Creighton while the Jays' batters went up against Brittney Lang.
After a scoreless first frame, Creighton opened the scoring in the bottom of the second. Junior Ellen Homan opened with a single up the middle. Senior Ashley Frutos drew a walk before pinch hitter Blake Ringle approached the plate. Ringle drilled a double to right center to score Homan to give Creighton an early 1-0 edge after two.
Baker drilled a solo homer down the left field line run in the bottom of the third to put the Jays up by two. Cantu followed with a solo shot of her own over the left field wall to put CU up 3-0.
After an SIU pitching change, sophomore Bri Lingl hit a double off the top of the wall in left center. Freshman Erin McGonigal came into the game to run at second base. Allender singled through the right side to score the final run of the inning to make it 4-0 Creighton.
Cantu's second solo shot of the day to left field opened the Creighton fifth frame and accounted for Creighton's final run of the day.
Changstrom improved to 18-6 with the win. Lang dropped to 10-12 on the year after the loss.
Creighton hosts Illinois State in a rescheduled doubleheader slated for noon on Monday at the CU Sports Complex.

CANTON Make no mistake about it, St. Lawrence University junior Greg Carey is passionate about winning.
The winger clearly wasnt pleased at all when the Saints settled for a 3-3 tie against Colgate last Saturday night.
Im very competitive, said Carey, who leads the nation in goals with 18. Growing up, Ive always been competitive, I dont like to lose in anything, whether its in a hockey game or in practice or even in a game of chess against my brother.
I dont like to lose and I think you can say that probably about every single one of those guys in that locker room.
Have Carey and the Saints (12-10-4, 5-5-4), unbeaten in their past six conference games at 4-0-2, hit their stride yet?
Id like say we havent yet and Id to say we can tighten up this (race) even further, Carey said. Were playing good hockey, but you never want to be content you always want to drive for something better.
St. Lawrence continues ECAC Hockey play by hosting Rensselaer tonight and Union on Saturday night, with both games at 7.
Entering conference play three weekends ago, the Saints occupied 11th place in the league. But by generating eight points since, theyve risen to fifth in the ECAC with a potential top-four finish in the league and a first-round bye in the playoffs a possibility.
Its an exciting time for us, said Carey, a native of Hamilton, Ontario. Our hockey season is kind of coming to its zenith here, and we want and try to accomplish as much as we can here. Its important for us to try and play the best we can to finish off the (regular) season.
St. Lawrence trails fourth-place Union, which reached the Frozen Four last year and has won the past seven games against the Saints, by only two points. Five teams including rival Clarkson and Rensselaer are also tied for sixth and sit a point behind St. Lawrence in the standings.
These are a couple important games, Carey said. RPI always plays us hard and this is a crucial game, and I dont think weve beaten Union since Ive been here. Theyre a good strong team and I think this weekend is real important for us in the standings. So if we can get some points and keep up our good play, it should bode well for us.
Carey, who has totaled a team-leading 37 points, including 19 assists, along with senior center Kyle Flanagan (12-24-36) and junior winger Jeremy Wick (10-8-18) comprise perhaps the most lethal and prolific scoring line in the country.
Hes been a goal scorer from the day he first stepped on to the ice, St. Lawrence coach Greg Carvel said of Carey. Hes got an NHL shot and hes got real good offensive sense.
Both Carey, who may garner Hobey Baker Award attention, and Flanagan, whose name is already included in the prestigious awards first phase of voting, have ranked among the nations scoring leaders all season. Carey stands first in goals per game (0.69 percent) and fourth in points per game (1.42).
You can see hes got a little extra jump in his step, Flanagan said of Carey, who is tied for second in the nation in power-play goals (seven). When hes hot, we want him to shoot the puck. He leads the country in goals and theres no surprise why hes got a great shot.
Flanagan, who stands second in the country in both points per game (1.44) and assists per game (0.96), and is tied for second in assists (24).
We just want to keep it up, Carey said of his chemistry with Flanagan. For both of us, its definitely more of a team focus individual statistics are secondary. We want to try and do as much as we can for this team and if that means being all over the scoresheet, thats what well do. And if that means creating opportunities for other players, well do that as well. Its all about working toward our team goal.
Carey, who as well as Wick is on a five-game goal streak, has five goals and four assists over this stretch, and has totaled 15 points (7-8) over his past 10 games.
Hes passionate, but I wouldnt say hes intense, Carvel said of Carey, whose has totaled 114 career points at St. Lawrence. ... Hes not just a goal scorer he makes some great plays with the puck. But his mentality is to shoot first and hes got a shot that some goalies have a hard time picking up because he gets off his shot so quick.
Last season, St. Lawrence had a five-game winning streak in the ECAC beginning in the first weekend of February en route to an eighth-place finish and a home playoff series against Dartmouth.
Clearly, with eight league games remaining, this time the Saints have higher aspirations this season.
For some reason after Christmas break since Ive been here, weve gone on runs, said Carey, who has six points, including four goals, in four career games against RPI. Theres a desperation aspect because theres not much season left here and we want to get as much out of it as we can.

(I think this might actually be the most perfect outfit in the history of clothing.)
There was even a striped sweater at H&M that was the right sort of slouchy, unkempt sort, with stripes that I had been eyeing for weeks. But, as I'm trying to save money and not spend too much unnecessarily, I left it there after every visit. Then, I saw Alexa Chung on Garance Dore wearing said sweater, and I turned green with envy:
Then, a few days ago John and I went to H&M and the aforementioned most perfect sweater was on SALE! I grabbed it, after hemming and hawing about the difference between small and medium (I went with medium), here it is in all its inspired glory:

This week, Borger High School senior golfer Will Paulsell will begin his final tournament as a high school golfer by taking part in the 3A State Tournament at Roy Kizer Golf Course in Austin.
The trip marks the second time the Borger golfer will have competed at the state tournament. Yet it will be the first time since 2008 the heralded golfer has had the opportunity to compete for the state title.
Back in 2008, Paulsell made his presence known on the area high school golf scene as a freshman, winning the district title and earning that first trip to the state tournament.
Looking back at his freshman year, Paulsell said, "I wasn't expecting to have that kind of year at all so it was nice. I did well at the district tournament that year. However, my first round at regionals wasn't good at all. Somehow I was able to make it up on the second day in order to be a medalist."
On that first trip to state, Paulsell tied for 15th place with the senior saying that the experience at the state tournament was new and fun and in a way really helped the young golfer learn how to handle his nerves in tournaments he competes in each year.
With the early success it would be easy to draw the conclusion that Paulsell came from a family that spent numerous hours on the links and somewhere there is a home video of a young Will swinging a putter on a green.
But the truth is, outside of his grandfather, Paulsell said not many others in his family play the game very often and it wasn't until his seventh grade year that a love for the game of golf started to develop.
Paulsell said, "My granddad had taken me with him a time or two when I was younger and I really didn't like it. But when I was in seventh grade, I started playing with some of my friends and realize I was getting pretty good at it when I was doing well in junior tournaments."
While Paulsell continued to have success in high school golf tournaments over the next three years, a trip back to the state tournament eluded him during his sophomore and junior years. This proved to the golfer that earning a trip back to Austin was going to be harder than he though.
On trying to get back to state, Paulsell said, "It has been frustrating trying to get back to state. For some reason at regionals my sophomore and junior years I would have one bad round that would ultimately leave me just missing out."
There is no question that going into this year Paulsell still had his eye on getting back to state.
However, the senior found himself leading a talented group on the Borger Golf team that is considered one of the top ten squads in the state all season.
With the young golfers, Paulsell said, "The main thing I tried to do was keep them from getting too nervous when they played. All year I knew we had the capability to be really good but we just all needed to be able to play our game and not let our nerves get the best of us."
Spending time as part of the team is one of the biggest highlights for Paulsell the past four years. So when the team came up just short of earning a trip to state, the senior took it pretty hard.
Paulsell said, "We had worked hard all season and I know we are good enough to be there. So it still upsets me now that we weren't able to make it to state as a team."
Despite the team missing out on the trip to Austin, there is no question that Paulsell's teammates are behind their senior leader to do well at the state tournament.
Roy Kizer is the same course Paulsell competed in as a freshman, so there is some familiarity as far as how the course plays out.
Paulsell said, "The course has a lot of sand and water but the fairways are pretty wide open."
With the defending state champion in the field, Paulsell knows the competition for the top spot will be tough. But the senior feels if he can just keep the ball on the fairways and make his putts then there is an optimism that the Borger golfer can find himself towards the top of the leader board.
Round one of the 3A State Tournament will begin around 8:00 a.m. on Thursday with round two taking place on Friday.

OGDENSBURG A plan to spur economic growth by having the state turn over to the city unused land and buildings on the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center campus was approved by the state Senate Friday.
The proposal includes the transfer of 160 acres of unused campus property including St. Lawrence River frontage was included in the Senates version of the state budget, which passed with bipartisan support.
Passage by the Senate represents a major step forward for the plan, which was developed by state Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton in collaboration with the city and has been gaining support among local and St. Lawrence County leaders.
While working in retain patient care and jobs at the psych center, many saw the grounds for the first time in a number of years, Mrs. Ritchie said Friday. And they saw how valuable the land was and decided to focus their efforts to the over 100 acres that were underutilized and that needed to be turned over the city and put back on the tax rolls for the purpose of economic development.
Under the plan, they city would take over the waterfront property at Point Airy, a wooded area close to the Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authoritys industrial park, undeveloped land along Route 37 and the property on which the Ag Energy LP cogeneration plant sits.
Much of the property has been sitting unused for over 100 years, Mrs. Ritchie said.
The Senate budget also included new economic development funding that communities like Ogdensburg could access for job creation efforts.
The money could be used for a study on the property to look at ways to restore some of the buildings on the parcels, Mrs. Ritchie said. The co-generation plant is one of the lots there we are looking to have turned over to the city. That could be turned into a biomass facility that will immediately generate a number of jobs.
City Manager John M. Pinkerton said the Senates approval of the bill is a good first step.
Much of the property on Point Airy is prime, riverfront property that would be of a higher-end value that could help attract doctors and other professionals and alleviate the strains we have, Mr. Pinkerton said. The current taxable property is at 36 percent. We need economic vitality.
Mrs. Ritchies separate legislation to enact the plan was recently introduced in the Assembly by Assemblywoman Addie J. Russell, D-Theresa. Mrs. Russell said she is optimistic the bill will pass.
It has been introduced and were working to move it through the legislative process as soon as we can, Mrs. Russell said.

Better than all the rest. What else can we say? How about this: It's a rich, creamy, cherry-topped showstopper that's so easy, even beginners can pull it off.
- PREHEAT oven to 350°F if using a silver 8- or 9-inch springform pan (or to 325°F if using a dark nonstick 8- or 9-inch springform pan). Mix graham cracker crumbs, margarine and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Press firmly onto bottom and 2-1/2 inches up side of pan; set aside.
- BEAT cream cheese and the remaining 1 cup sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition just until blended. Pour into crust.
- BAKE 1 hour to 1 hour 10 min. or until center is almost set. Turn oven off. Open oven door slightly. Let cheesecake set in oven 1 hour. Remove cheesecake from oven; cool completely. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Loosen cheesecake from rim of pan; remove rim. Top cheesecake with pie filling just before serving. Store leftover cheesecake in refrigerator.
Kraft Kitchen tips:
SUBSTITUTE Prepare as directed, using PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese.
HOW TO EASILY CUT CREAMY DESSERTS When cutting creamy-textured desserts, such as cheesecake, carefully wipe off the knife blade between cuts with a clean damp towel. This prevents the creamy filling from building up on the blade, ensuring nice clean cuts that leave the filling intact.

Jack Brabham: From midget cars to Formula 1 pioneer
Sir Jack Brabham, who has died aged 88, was a member of the elite club of three-time Formula 1 world champions and a motorsport pioneer.
Brabham is the only man to have won the F1 world title driving a car made by his own company - an achievement secured in 1966.
Although already 40 by that stage, Brabham continued to race his own cars in F1 for another four years, before returning to his native Australia to concentrate on running a farm and other business interests, including a motorsport engine-builder company.
Jack Brabham's career coincided with those of other legends, such as Stirling Moss, Jim Clark and Jackie Stewart.
Jack Brabham Factfile
1955 - Debut at Aintree in a Cooper-Bristol
1959 - Wins title in a Cooper, the first mid-engined F1 car, clinching it at Sebring after Ferrari's Tony Brooks chooses to come in to the pits to investigate a potential problem, and Moss retires
1960 - Five straight wins in Holland, Belgium, France, Britain and Portugal lead to a second consecutive title
1962 - Sets up Brabham with Ron Tauraunac
1964 - Dan Gurney wins French Grand Prix at Rouen to take first win for Brabham
1966 - Brabham wins French Grand Prix at Reims to become first man to win a grand prix in a car of his own manufacture. Goes on to win in Britain, Germany and Holland on his way to becoming the only man to win the world title in one of his own cars.
1970 - Embarrassing last-corner crash in Monaco hands win to Jochen Rindt
1978 - Knighted
Brabham was never considered to have the natural talent of those rivals, but he earned a reputation as a tough, uncompromising competitor and his career success surpassed all his contemporaries bar Stewart and Juan Manuel Fangio, with whom Brabham only briefly overlapped.
But Brabham the racing driver has been undervalued. No-one wins three world titles against drivers like that - in addition to the likes of John Surtees, Dan Gurney, Tony Brooks and others - without being pretty special themselves.
Nevertheless, it is true to say that, for all three of his titles, Brabham benefited from a car advantage of one kind or another, whether it was down to technology, performance, reliability or a combination of all three.
That seems only fitting for a man who attended technical college and brought a keen mechanical understanding first to his racing and then to establishing a successful team of his own.
Brabham's engineering expertise also kept him away from the front line in the second World War. Although he wanted to become a pilot, he was made a flight mechanic when he enlisted in the Australian air force in May 1944.
The war over, Brabham started a machining and repair business and began racing in his spare time.
He honed his craft on Australia's dirt ovals racing a midget car, a grounding more typical of an IndyCar racer in the USA than a future F1 world champion.
But the better he became, the more his interest in road racing grew.
After two successful years racing in Australia and New Zealand in 1953-54, he moved to Europe.
Within a few months of arriving, he had made his F1 world championship debut, at Silverstone in the 1955 British Grand Prix, driving a Cooper.
It was the start of a long and successful relationship, which was to culminate in his first two world titles.
Cooper were ahead of their time, although few yet realised it. The team built cars with their engines behind the driver - when all other F1 cars at that time had the engine at the front.
A mid-engined car has better stability, handling and overall performance, but the revolutionary possibilities were not initially realised by the wider world as Cooper struggled with under-powered engines.
But in 1959, Cooper finally got the same size 2.5-litre engines used by his rivals, and the effect was instant. Brabham won the opening race of the season in Monaco in the new Cooper-Climax. A series of podium places, and another win at the British GP at Aintree put him in the lead of the championship.
He owed the position partly to the unreliability of Moss's Lotus - that also gave him a helping hand in securing the title at the final race at Sebring, Florida.
Moss established an early lead from pole position but retired with a broken gearbox, handing the initiative to Brabham, who had been tracking his rival a short distance behind.
Brabham led almost to the finish, before running out of fuel on the last lap. He pushed the car across the line to take fourth place and his first world title. It signalled the end of the front-engined F1 car.
After a second F1 title in a dominant 1960 season, Brabham and Cooper changed racing in America, too.
Brabham raced a Cooper in the famous Indianapolis 500 in 1961.
His car had only slightly more than half the power of the American front-engined roadsters, but he ran as high as third before finishing ninth, thereby starting the mid-engined revolution in the US as well.
Brabham left Cooper for 1962 to drive for his own nascent team and, now into his late 30s, began to consider retiring from driving to run it.
He gave the lead-driver role to Gurney, who took the team's first win in France in 1964. When the American left at the end of 1965, Brabham decided he had to carry on.
For 1966, he persuaded engine company Repco to build his team an engine for the new three-litre formula.
It was a V8, and as such ran against the trend for engines of higher numbers of cylinders such as Ferrari's V12. But it was along the lines on which Cosworth were working for what was to become the defining DFV, introduced the following year.
The Repco was not the most powerful engine, but it helped give a good power-to-weight ratio in a car that had effective handling and strong tyres.
Meanwhile, Brabham's chief rivals were all hamstrung in various ways - Ferrari parted company with their number one driver, John Surtees, during the season and Clark was hampered by the engines in his Lotus.
Brabham took his first win in the French Grand Prix, the third race of the season, and followed up with three more on the trot to wrap up a third title a few months after his 40th birthday.
Two more wins followed in 1967, when his team won their second consecutive title with New Zealander Denny Hulme.
After resolving to retire at the end of 1970, Brabham won the first race of that season, too, going on to another strong year despite being in his 45th year.
Following his retirement and return to Australia, his team continued in F1, being sold in 1972 to Bernie Ecclestone, who would lead it to further world titles in 1981 and 1983 with the Brazilian Nelson Piquet before selling it to concentrate on running the commercial aspects of the sport.
The team, now unrecognisable from their glory days under its founder and Ecclestone, collapsed with financial problems at the end of 1992.
Brabham was the first post-war racing driver to be knighted and continued to drive in selected historic events until health stopped him in the late 2000s.
He is survived by his wife, Betty, and his three sons, Geoff, Gary and David, who all became racing drivers.

@126 VDU - Funny that, today it doesn't seem at all likely a driver over 40 could be as competitive as Brabham was. As M.Schumacher and de la Rosa showed!
And oh dear, jd esq is still trotting out the same old tired lines. Yet again - it's not the time or place. Show some respect.

Incidentally, I don't know what the REPCO V8 cost to produce from a stock block, but I don't imagine it even cost as much as the Cosworth DFV (£100,000)
Quite a bit less than the £6-7m being bandied about for current "power units"!

@ 125.Vulpes
I was already a fat git by the age of 44. The idea of shoving a racing car halfway round a very hot Northampton track would be beyond me.
I still do shove racing cars (including one occasion, JB's T59 Cooper-Climax) in and out of workshops, though. :)

I wonder if that ever flashed through Ron's mind as he was bawling out a McLaren mechanic for some misdemeanour?
Amazing to think, that half way through the 1970 season, at the age of 44, JB was second in the WDC, one win behind Rindt and but for the Brands fuel fiasco and unfortunate last corner incident at Monaco, would have been leading, with 3 wins to Rindt's 2.
Comment number 124. Posted by VDU881on 21 May 2014 14:09
Haven't quite a lot of drivers not won a WDC for the last six years?
Fernando Alonso certainly hasn't.
So why do you single out Lewis?
Do you even watch Formula 1?

@@ UK-Minardi-Fan, et al ...
Have said this before - have no axe to grind with OTP - he earned the handle by not winning anything for six years, gifted 2008 - until a very lame DB/MBR/AMG came along and gave him a break - Ferrari & RBR
did not want him for free - MBR/AMG +80HP boosted OTP - nothing else.
Would rather see Chilton win - MBR needs to borrow from the RBR management hymn book

A true Champion and a committed pioneer to racing sport, he archived in life what ordinary men just dreamed of.
Now your last race is done, I just want to say: thank you, Sir Jack.
You were one of my childhood heroes.

I think you're right there. I suppose the rules were drafted on the assumption that the "rookie" wouldn't ordinarily be a WDC.
Jack pushed his car over the line to take second place in the 1970 British GP after running out of fuel. The mechanic who's job it was to fuel the car was.......Ron Dennis!

Gave....10th anny Turn on your Bright lights --Interpol 2lp/DVD
White Stripes--Hotel Yorba, Live at the hotel Yorba 7"
Stoked for both!
I sold one CD on Discogs for $125 bucks, so I used some of that money to place an order tonight:
Queens of the Stone Age - Rated X (Rated R deluxe reissue)
The Byrds - Sweetheart of the Rodeo (180 repress)
Pallbearer - Sorrow and Extinction
Damn! What CD was that?
The Velvet Underground - VU LP
And that's some shitty business with the Dark Star 7", Bryan, but I was pretty much expecting that. How does the rest of the set sound?
EDIT: Let me know how that Byrds repress sounds, I've nearly bought that many times.
that record is great... but this is his crowning release this year... and it has been a very, very busy year for mr. drumm.
The guy is always churning out great stuff. I'll probably pick up Crowded at some point. It makes sense that you'd like it more, too, due to what I know about your taste i.e. you seem to be more into the musique concrete stuff.
I really love Relief though, it's just such an affecting mixture of pretty ambient drones and harsh noise attacks. When I emailed him to order it, he remarked that it's pressed at 45 RPM and "I won't listen to it again, but I think I might have liked it even more at 33", haha.
that's great. i've listened to both Relief and Crowded at the wrong speeds. Dying Air was also a great one from this year... i should dig out those cassettes again.
the main reason I dig Crowded is it capitalizes on many of his recent strengths. as far as the harsh wall of noise stuff goes, I doubt he'll ever be able to top self-titled and Sheer Hellish Miasma in my book... so I'm happy to see him take new directions as always.
i assume you've listened to Imperial Distortion? if not, definitely check it out for some more faces of his music.
Oh yeah, I have. I've bought some of his self-released stuff this year too. In fact that reminds me that I have a 2x CS I bought from him I haven't listened to; I should get on that.
I regret skipping his set at Hopscotch to see Jacaszek. Jacaszek was cool and all, and I went with him since he's from Poland and probably won't be around the US in the foreseeable future, but my love for Kevin Drumm has grown a lot between then and now.
Jacaszek never plays... i probably would have made the same choice. Drumm does destroy live though, and he's played a lot less frequently in recent years.
Ha, yes. So wacky and indicative of their headspace at the time. Listening to the og mixes of those the "Anthem" & "Aoxomoxa" reminds me a lot of "After Bathing at Baxter's," a record I absolutely love.
EDIT: "Anthem" was the second Dead release I ever listened to and was like, "what the fuck is going on here?" I'm glad you dig, hardly anyone thinks of them as a legitimate psych band, but their early shit is pretty out there.
Christmas + record shopping:
Smashing Pumpkins - Pisces Iscariot (remastered box)
William Basinski - The Disintegration Loops
Deep Wound - Deep Wound
Dinosaur L - 24 -> 24 Music
Godspeed! You Black Emperor - Hallelujah! Don't Bend, Ascend
Shoes - One in Versailles
Shoes - Bazooka
Smashing Pumpkins - Pisces Iscariot
The Velvet Underground - Scepter Studio Sessions
A handful of thoughts on this stuff:
-The Basinski and Dinosaur L sets are fucking beautiful.
-Pisces is another well-done Pumpkins remaster. This shit sounds so much better.
-The Shoes reissues are really beautifully done as well. Need to listen to determine how they sound but they look great.
I went buckwild today throughout LA and got a bunch of stuff I've been interested in for some time:
Nails - Obscene Humanity 7"
Descendents - Everything Sucks
Hawkwind - Warrior On the Edge of Time (Red bootleg vinyl)
Royal Thunder - CVI
Municipal Waste - The Fatal Feast (Waste in Space) (green vinyl)
Pig Destroyer - Book Burner
Daughn Gibson - All Hell
The Germs - (GI) (180 Gram repress)
Faust - So Far (Four Men With Bears repress)
Ramones - Ramones (180 Gram repress)
From listening tonight:
Nails - Hot damn this is one hell of a 7". They pound out some next-level grind/death/hardcore stuff over the course of three songs, initially from their inaugural 12" and redone here in better quality and better performance. Ugly music played hideously.
Pig Destroyer - Definitely top 10 of the year. Probably top 5 to be honest. They just murder every riff, and somehow make a few catchy grindcore songs.
Ramones - Definitely top 10 of all time. Probably top 5 to be honest. One listen was enough to make me question why it took me so long to buy this album on vinyl. Not their best (Rocket To Russia) but definitely their most immediate and bracing.
Municipal Waste - I'd never heard them before, and they have a ton of fun on this. Drunken thrash metal with some hilarious lyrics. Beer and solos abound, and I couldn't be happier with the results.
Faust - Goddamn I forgot how great this album is. I've owned the first one and IV for years, but this is the one where they hit their peak. Daddy, take the banana, tomorrow is Sunday.
Finally found an affordable new copy of Bjork's Post on vinyl from CDUniverse - $23 and it was their last copy. They say it was issued in 2007, so I don't know if it's the 180g reissue, or the limited 200g DMM, or neither, but I don't much care being that I've been looking for this album on vinyl for a while now.

hard to pass up as silly as it is on first glance.

i assume both are bootlegs... but whatever, never thought I'd own any proper la monte young records.

i'm having trouble figuring out how to print more than 4 copies of my document on one page. I'm making business cards and when i first started messing around with Publisher i was able to print 10 on a page. now i can only print 4, and i cant for the life of me figure out how to change it back to 10. then i switched the page layout to landscape and i was able to print 9 on a page, but that too now is no longer an option. I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to change it. i figured out how to print several pages onto one page, but that's the whole page and makes it really small, if that makes sense. Does anyone know how to change the settings so that i can print 10 or 9 copies of the card on one page???
go into page setup from the file menu. on the layout tab, select "business card". then click on the box that says "change copies per sheet". By changing your margins and gutter sizes to a smaller size, you can get 10 on a page. Try a side and top margin of less than 1/2" and a gap (horizontal and vertical) of half inch or less. You won't see the change until you click ok.... but then on the page setup layout screen, you'll hopefully see 10 copies per page. 2 across, 5 down. Good luck, hope that helps. If that wasn't clear to you, let me know. I'm kind of spacey today

EarthLite Deluxe Massage Table Warmer 30"x 73"
You may have invested in the best sheets for your clients to enjoy during a massage, but what about the table beneath? If it is cold to the touch, it could make those costly sheets completely useless to the client who lays shivering and uncomfortable. Why take such a chance? The EarthLite Deluxe Massage Table Warmer is a full sized fleece pad and warmer in one! Digital controls include a timer that automatically shuts off after 99 minutes.
It fits firmly into place thanks to strong elastic straps, and the adjustable temperatures (86°-122°F) make it possible to give each client precisely the conditions they need. Ensure that each massage is as beneficial and enjoyable as possible by offering a soft, warm, and relaxing treatment surface.
How to troubleshoot if you think the warmer is not getting warm.The warmer may appear to be not working if it is lying on the massage table without any covering. The heat from the warmer is activated when covered by a blanket or sheet, or a body when getting a massage. The best way to test it is to turn on the warmer, and lay down on top of it. Within a couple of minutes, you should feel the warmth. If you do not feel the warmth, please contact our customer service department for further instruction.
Spot Cleaning
Earthlite has changed this product. I have bought several of these fleece table warmers over the years and have always loved it; however, they have lowered the temperature maximum to 22 degrees which means the warmth is barely noticeable. It used to be 35 degrees and the perfect temperature for our cool Colorado weather. Not anymore. So disappointed.
After I placed my review and received my second warmer I needed to give an updated review! The warmer I ordered in Feb 2015 has a timer that adjusts in 30 min increments all the way up to 12 hours! This is now the perfect table warmer!!!
I absolutely love this warmer! Been using for a year- ordering my second one for the second table! THe only negative thing I can say is that I wish the timer had longer options so I did not have to turn back on multiple times through out a 6 appointment day
Althought his table warmer is soft and delicious it automatically turns off after about 45 min.
Since I regularly perform 2 hour sessions, the 45 min timer is a pain! I do NOT recommend this item at all!
I love my table warmer. The fleece is nice and plush. The only negative would be about the timer. I wish there was an option to leave it on longer than the 99 minutes or at least have a sound when it shuts off. While pre-warming the bed and then working on clients longer than the allotted time, I've had it shut off and my client is cold. So, it would be nice to have the option to have it on longer for those extended appointments.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: Need to change date.In full: This is a lovely low-key event but could be much bigger if the date didn't clash with three major half marathons ie Bristol.Chippenham and Cheltenham the course is challenging in places but very senic a few little hiccups signing could be better two runners ended up missing a turn and ended up doing 3 miles more and time keepers watches loosing power but generally a nice morning run and will I be back next year well yes if the date is changed.Date of review: September 16, 2013
In short: Brilliant race well organized.Date of review: June 15, 2013
In short: Great race Great T-shirtIn full: This race just seems to get better, large number of entrants nearly 900 this year with 780+ finishing the course. the course is fairly flat with one or two minor bumps nothing to hinder you with. Date of review: April 28, 2013
In short: Not bad.In full: This was my first distance race over half marathon length since London marathon 1999 and as I intend to do a couple of full marathons this year I fought this race was a good start and I wasnt wrong the race was well marshaled with a lovely course with only one small gripe that is the mile markers wernt very accurate I was using endomondo the first mile came up to soon but the 20 mile finish line came up spot on so guess that may need looking at in future, for a low key event and paying £20 guess I cant really grumble. Date of review: March 20, 2013
In short: Great race Great T-shirtIn full: Did this race for the first time last year and was delighted by the friendly atmosphere so came back for a return run didnt get a PB but received a brilliant T-shirt bright yellow one plus a flashing arm bad for those dark wintery nights, great value for money and would recommend it for any runners who havent done this course which is down a old railway line. Date of review: February 26, 2013
In short: Bring your wellies.In full: Despite the bad weather and surface water the course is very fast just missed out on a distance PB by 9 seconds cant fault the marshal's standing on the corners in the driving rain they certainly earned a hot cuppa, did noticed in the results that two runners were disqualified and i guess for using music players of some sort they were told and signs were around that this would happen if caught this is the first race that I have been in that this as happened. Date of review: February 11, 2013
In short: A run in the forest.In full: Brilliant race along winding narrow New Forest lanes very undulating with a few steepish hills but if you go up you must come down them at some point the weather was kind as the rain held off for most of the runners, when you finished there was a cup of soup and roll waiting for you I will do this race again next year. Well done to the organizers for a job well done. Date of review: November 26, 2012
In short: Brilliant just BrilliantIn full: wasn't expecting to get a PB but just did after a week of sneezing, coughing and feeling like s**t I managed not just beating last years time but beating my personal best for the distance even faster than Bristol 2 weeks ago which was a flatter course than this one. Feeling overwhelmed with joy. Date of review: October 15, 2012
In short: Great race plenty chance of P.BIn full: Brilliant race and a PB possibility, the start is a bit messy with two starts with two waves also the results service could had been better as results given on the Run Britain site only goes up to the 3000 finisher also gun times weren't given and when contacted reason given is that how the organizers wanted it. Date of review: October 9, 2012
In short: A race for the local schools.In full: First time I have done this race and it seemed to well turned out by the local schools ie Abingdon and Radley with a few club runners and the rest made up of locals plus a Spanish contingent, the course was mainly off road running beside the Thames and cow-pack fields marshals were very friendly and pointed you in the right direction,whether I will do the race again next year well yes if there's nothing else local. One more thing didn't get a memento or medal.Date of review: September 20, 2012
