96th NHRA Funny Car Nationals John Force - John Force Vs. Car CraftWritten by on October 1, 2001
John Force drives a Mustang Funny Car. It goes 4s. Car Craft has a Mustang drag-race car, too. It goes 12s on a good day. So what else does Force have that we don't? How about millions of fans, millions in endorsements and sponsorships, and (by the time he's done racing) probably close to a million national event wins.
Even if you've never been to an NHRA event, the name John Force is synonymous with "kick-ass drag racer." Those of you who are familiar with his 4.7-second 320-mph Funny Car know that Force is not only a national champion, he's a Ten-'peat Champ and is credited with 96 national event wins, including the Pep Boys NHRA 50th Anniversary Nationals in Pomona, California, where we staged a mock "heads-up" race between our two cars. We also toured his race-team headquarters in nearby Yorba Linda, California, and squared off for a head-to-head interview with one of pro drag racing's funniest and favorite racers.
Head to Head with John Force
A few days after he won his 96th NHRA Funny Car national event at the Pep Boys 50th Anniversary Nationals at Pomona Raceway, we managed to pry a few minutes out of John Force's hectic schedule to chat about the sport and business of drag racing.
Car Craft: First, congratulations on your win at Pomona last weekend. Let's start at the beginning. How did you get started in drag racing?
John Force: I've been racing all my life, but I went to Australia in 1974 to campaign a Vega Funny Car as a pro. When I came back to the US, my first car was a Monza. I was with GM for about 15 years before I signed on with Ford.
CC: What was it like racing in Australia?
Force: They were about 10 years behind the times. I actually drove Jack Crisman's old Sidewinder Mach 1 that had a SOHC Ford mounted sideways in it.
CC: What goes through your mind when you're strapped into the car in the staging lanes during those few minutes you have alone before the race?
Force: I get in my head what the crew chief is telling me I need to do. Do I need a holeshot because the other guy is faster? Do I need to shallow stage because of track conditions? You get in your mind what you need to do to win the race. Then I think about my kids-that calms me down. We've all got a bit of the saber-toothed tiger in us-it's our aggressive nature-but you have to be able to control it and find the balance of aggression and control. If fear takes over, you lose all control.
CC: Is there time to think about anything during a 4.7-second, 320-mph run?
Force: I know where the fire bottles are!
CC: Your team is different from most because you have co-crew chiefs-Austin Coil and Bernie Fedderly. How do the three of you interact?
Force: I hired Austin Coil because he won two championships when he didn't have any money-all he had was one spare piston. Austin is aggressive; he yells and screams. Bernie is the opposite-he used to be that way, but now he's cool, calm, and collected. They find a balance. I'm scatterbrained, and I'm the same way in the car and in the boardroom.
CC: Speaking of boardrooms, how much of your time is spent at the business of racing compared to actually racing?
Force: Ninety percent-about 50 percent of that is talking with potential sponsors, 30 percent is attending car shows and other media engagements and working with current sponsors, and about 20 percent is working on new business. The racing part is getting on an airplane for 24 weekend events a year.
CC: What do you do when you're not racing or conducting racing business?
Force: I like to play with motorcycles. I've got Harleys and a Suzuki-the fastest street bike you can buy. I've also got a little ski boat up at my place in Lake Tahoe. And I like teaching my girls how to fish.
CC: So you don't really spend much time hot rodding around when you're not in the Funny Car?
Force: I did all that when I was a kid. I get fleet cars every year from Ford, and they always say, "If you want to buy a used one, buy Force's because he goes easy on them."
CC: What was your very first car?
Force: I had a '62 Ford Fairlane with a three-speed on the column, but I put a 390 Interceptor and a four-speed in it. I think it was a Muncie.
CC: If you could only have one car, what would it be?
Force: Probably the Jaguar I have now. I know it's not a Ford, but at least they own Jaguar, so it's OK. I actually have a whole museum full of cars. I have a '28 Ford Woodie, a '57 T-Bird, and I just got a '58 Cadillac. It's a shame I never get to drive any of them. But I guess my favorite driver is a '6411/42 Mustang convertible. It's got a 260 and an automatic, and I love taking the girls out in it for a Sunday drive.
CC: Most of the sport's top drivers eventually step aside to manage a team full-time. Is that in your near future?
Force: I just signed a five-year contract with Castrol to drive until I'm 55. Oh wait. I'm 52, so that means I'll be driving at least until I'm 57. But I have four daughters and three of them are interested in racing. One of them runs my office here in Los Angeles, and my youngest just graduated from the Frank Hawley Drag Racing School. I really think there's a lot of potential for women in the sport, and she's on the five-year plan. Ford is looking at her to possibly drive five years from now.
CC: There are rumors that Winston may pull out of the NHRA. How's the current health of the sport in your opinion?
Force: I'm proud to be the Winston champion, and even though I've heard that talk, I don't think it's a fact yet. [Ed. Note: Just prior to press time and after this interview, RJR Reynolds announced it was pulling its Winston sponsorship from NHRA.] We've got a great television package, and we've got two great people behind drag racing: Tom Compton at the NHRA and [the IHRA's] Bill Bader. I think one day there will be a Super Bowl between the two groups.
CC: What's your pitch when you meet with a potential sponsor?
Force: I tell them that drag racing is a better buy even than NASCAR. It's not only what you can get on TV, it's what you get at the races. NASCAR is a blur, with the cars going around in a circle, and so is drag racing when the car is going down the track. But at an NHRA race, the fans can spend time in the pits with with their favorite drivers. There's a more personal touch. The sponsors can also spend the day with their driver. I had about 20 sponsors with me last weekend.
CC: One last thing we've got to ask. Do you ever read Car Craft?
Force: I read Car Craft all the time, especially when I'm on an airplane. I like to see what's going on with the basic street car guys. But I also read Hot Rod, the Robb Report, and The National Enquirer.

John has a truck and trailer-so do we. Actually, John has five semi trailers, a luxury coach, and several other trucks to support his three-car team at the races-and they carry enough spare parts to build three more cars right there on the track if the need should arise. But if this were the late '60s, you would have seen guys like Grumpy Jenkins and Dyno Don Nicholson with a tow rig similar to our '67 Chevy and flatbed trailer.John has collectible toys of his car from Action. While we don't have one of our 'Stang yet, we do have a 1:43 scale of our '70 Chevelle from Road Champs and another one from the Hot Wheels Editors Choice Series. So there.
This is an exclusive look inside John's office where all his serious business and serious yelling transpire.
John's car is radio-delete, because it's nothing but business when he's galloping down the quarter-mile. A tube chassis protects him, and his cramped quarters only house the bare necessities, including a steering wheel, hand brake, and a handle to pull the parachute.King Matt is saddled in his luxurious open-spaced coupe with a Crow Enterprizes harness and protected by his six-point rollbar should the ugly happen. Notice the absence of a radio.
John uses two parachutes to quickly slow him down from 300-plus-mph blasts. We rely on our stock discs and rear drums. If too much brake fade should occur, there's always the hole in the floorpan and our fresh set of steel-plated boots.

We've had several reports from Android users claiming that the Zimbra Web server doesn't recognize the Android as a mobile device and kicks them to the full Web page by default. Moreso, if they explicitly go to the mobile page and click around they sometimes get booted back to the full-featured Web page anyhow.
Is there any way to add to the list of devices that are treated as mobile devices by default?
The issue seems to be very similar to the one that drupal ran into:

|Public input requested at South Platte Watershed meeting
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Here's an opportunity to be involved in making decisions about dealing with water quality issues in the Lower South Platte River watershed. The meeting is open to the public and is scheduled for July 8 from 3-5 p.m. at Morgan Community College, Founders Room, 920 Barlow Road in Fort Morgan.
Landowners, organizations, agencies and businesses are invited to discuss water quality concerns and priorities for managing natural and agricultural resources in the Lower South Platte basin. State Representative Jerry Sonnenberg will speak on the importance of water quality to the economic viability of the entire watershed, particularly agriculture. Commissioner of Agriculture John Stulp and Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment's Water Quality Control Division, Watershed Program Manager, Dick Parachini, will also be in attendance.
"This is the first of several public input meetings to be held in different locations in the Lower South Platte Watershed over the next six months as we work to write the Lower South Platte Watershed Plan," stated Mark Cronquist, conservation specialist with the Colorado State Conservation Board and the Colorado Department of Agriculture. "Ultimately, the goal is to protect and improve water quality despite increased demands for water throughout the area,"
The watershed planning project, funded by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment's Water Quality Control Division through the Colorado Nonpoint Source Program, will encompass an estimated 3.45 million acres from the Town of Platteville north and northeast to the Colorado-Nebraska state line and all or portions of nine smaller tributary watersheds within the planning area.
The goal of this planning process, scheduled for completion in November 2010 with the publication of the Lower South Platte Watershed Plan, is to empower a group of landowners, managers, conservation professionals and residents to implement and oversee the plan in their watershed and review the plan on a regular basis to determine if changes are needed to keep the plan functional.
"The plan will assemble all currently available knowledge and resources to better understand the overall water quality flowing through this watershed. The plan that is developed will be a dynamic tool for those living in the basin to use in addressing current and future water quality issues," Cronquist said.

The production takes place in Garnerville, where some of the process is subcontracted to a local woodworker, and the Moonish studio in Greenpoint Brooklyn, where the design and printing take place. All of the plywood they use is sourced from FSC compliant supplies, and because it is marine grade, there is no added urea formaldehyde like most inexpensive plywood contain. The tiles are silkscreened with water based pigments, and are finished with a water based acrylic finish, either glossy or matte.
Moonish plywood "tiles" can be applied to any smooth level surface. They can compose a wall or ceiling size mosaic, or they can be used for smaller projects like headboards or trim. Once installed the tiles can be rearranged on their steel stickers to make alternate designs. Each box contains a set of 36 tiles and covers an area of 9 sq ft. Prices range from $198-257 per box box depending on the design you choose.

Vivantis Bacterial DNA extraction kit
Discussion of all aspects of biological molecules, biochemical processes and laboratory procedures in the field.
Moderator: BioTeam

Vivantis Bacterial DNA extraction kit
I am using Vivantis Bacterial DNA extraction kit to extract DNA from Achantameoba culture. I follow exactly the protocol provided along with the kit. However, the amount of DNA that I able to able to extract is very minute, with concentration just few ng/ul when measure by NanoQuant. No band formed from AGE. I repeat twice and get the same result. Anyone got any idea what is the problem?
I am neither familiar with the vivantis kit nor with achantamobea, but often those kits are tested with common lab cultures of a few Gram + and - and may not work as well with other species (or even environmental isolates). Usually because the cell wall is different is different and not properly degraded.
In your kit they seem to rely on proteinase K, just like Qiagen, and in my experience it is far form good for even E. coli environmental isolates.
There are alternative technologies to lyse the cells: bead beating (great for everything, but lots of shearing), boiling or even autoclaving, other chemicals...
Maybe you could have a look at the literature for your organism to see what people usually use.

any proof. (Ashley Montague)
Hi there, yes I have search for some literature and found there this Acanthamoeba need some pre-treatment before the commercial kits. By the way, how do you mean by autoclaving to lyse the cell? Usually in which step we can do autoclave?
I mean that:
I have not tried, because at the time it could have been interesting I could not access to the programs of the autoclave, and now, it is of no use to me...
Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without
any proof. (Ashley Montague)
Re: Vivantis Bacterial DNA extraction kit
It does after a while, in this case, the time spent at high temperature is very limited enough to cause the bacteria to lyse, but not enough to destroy DNA. That is one reason you need to have the rights to program your autoclave to use this method, since your usual programs are quite useless.
Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without
any proof. (Ashley Montague)
Yes and No. Because many bacteria will not break open with just boiling.
Direct colony PCR is nice for your average E. coli but will fail with many natural isolates with capsules. And this is also very true with other groups such as Gram positive that are in general much harder to lyse with simple boiling. Autoclave on the other hand is supposed to be universally efficicent.
Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without
any proof. (Ashley Montague)
I have take a look at my lab autoclave machine.. I think I cant change the setting, as just got the Start and Stop button along with the meters only. However, i do found some can change the setting, just that not yet getting the approval...

Some random thoughts ...
Jose Davis' Bellaire Big Reds are off to a 3-0 start following a victory against East Liverpool this past week. Bellaire enters Buckeye 8 play this week. How the Big Reds handle teams like Indian Creek, Martins Ferry, St. Clairsville, and Harrison Central?
Jason Merryman has installed a new attitude at St. John and the Fighting Irish is one bad half away from also being 3-0. The Fighting Irish has been looked upon as an ''easy'' victory in recent seasons, but have become a much improved unit under Merryman's watch. St. John faces its toughest task Saturday at Bishop Donahue.
Let's be honest, that can be quite a drive from many of the schools and there were grumblings. But it's time to admit that these schools are good for the conference.
Taking a look at the OVAC football standings, all three schools coming from the Morgantown-area - Morgantown High, University, and Clay-Battelle - are undefeated. The Mohigans lead Class 5A after a pasting of Parkersburg South this week.
These schools have brought competition to the league. And that is a good thing.
Of every game played involving OVAC teams, all but six were decided by two touchdowns or more. Sure, you are going to have those games every week, some teams are just overmatched. But to see this many games decided long before the whistle blows just isn't what we are used to on a regular basis. Here's hoping to more competitive contests this week.

I have used a Savage 22lr semi-auto for years and worked great but I think I already shot the barrel out plus bulk ammo is a little wishy washy and the wind effects your shot significantly. Maybe a 22 mag or 17 with a bull barrel???

Avoid the "Boo-Boos" this Halloween
Halloween is among the top three holidays producing the most emergency room visits, according to a nine-year study of pediatric emergency room visits between 1997 and 2006.
Most of the injuries were to the finger or hand with 33.3 percent being lacerations and 20.1 percent being fractures. The greatest portion of total injuries at 30.3 percent, were sustained by children, ages 10-14. Therefore, the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) asks children and adults to take some simple precautions to remain safe for Halloween.
Here are safety tips to remember as the whole family gets ready to celebrate:
—Children should not carve pumpkins. However, some carving devices or kits can be used by older children with adult supervision. Young children can have fun emptying the seeds instead of carving.
Think about painting pumpkins instead of carving as well. Remember to wash all pumpkins with soap and water before they are carved, because bacteria may be on the surface of the pumpkin and can be ingested accidentally, causing severe illness.
—Remember to use a pumpkin carving kit or knives specially designed for carving, as they are designed to not get stuck in the pumpkin.
—Always carve pumpkins in a clean, dry and well-lit area and make sure there is no moisture on the carving tools or your hands. Remember to cut away from your body and do not rush.
—If there is a cut hand or finger, elevate the limb higher than the heart and apply direct pressure to the wound with a clean cloth to stop the bleeding. If continuous pressure does not slow or stop the bleeding within 15 minutes, an emergency room visit may be necessary.
—Be cautious of fire hazards when lighting jack-o-lantern candles. You may want to try non-flammable light sources, such as glow sticks or artificial pumpkin lights.
—Make sure that costumes are flame-resistant and fit properly. The costume should not obstruct the child's vision or be too long, causing the child to trip and fall.
—Shoe wear should be sturdy, comfortable and slip-resistant to avoid falls.
—Trick-or-treaters and parents should carry a flashlight to see and be seen. Also, approach only houses that are well lit.
—Be aware of neighborhood dogs when you approach their home, as these pets can impose a threat.
—Having a cell phone is a good idea in case there is an emergency.

Mooneyes 10th Annual Hot Rod & Custom ShowWritten on August 12, 2002 Fulfilling A Yen For Foreign Kustom Kulture
You know, perks in this line of work are never taken for granted, no matter what anybody tells you. Take, for instance, the chance-in-a-lifetime opportunity of traveling to Japan I had last year. It was incredible, to say the least, and I figured it would be a long time before something like that would come around again (see the May 2001 issue of Street Rodder for the complete story). Lo and behold, Shige and the folks at Mooneyes felt our visit was such a success with the Japanese rodders that they invited us over again--and Editorial Director Brennan signed off on it! I was literally in shock, knowing that I was going to be able to experience a wonderful foreign adventure like that one more time.
This year, instead of traveling around and visiting the various shops, we primarily focused on the big Mooneyes hot rod and custom show in Yokohama--especially considering this was the 10th anniversary of the event. This meant scaling down our trip to five days (I know, take time to wipe the tears), but that's five more than I could honestly ask for! We arrived on Friday evening, having all of Saturday to prepare the cars and such for the show on Sunday (that left us with a full Monday for tourist-type stuff in Tokyo before returning). Gene Olsen's SO-CAL-built '51 Merc convertible, the Larsen & Cummins streamliner, and the Shifters Marky Idzardi's Purple People Eater were the "wheeled" guests of honor this year from the United States, which seemed to be a fitting array of American rodding heritage. As far as all the individuals that made the overseas trek, we had Pete Chapouris (traveling with Olsen), Fred Larsen and his wife, Marky and Anthony from the Shifters, Greg Coddington, and artists Jimmy C. (Who, by the way, is responsible for the life-size Ed Roth tribute statue.), Herb Martinez, and Larry Henley. Overall, it was a great representation of U.S. talent and personalities. Being the show was a tribute to the late Big Daddy Roth, his widow Ilene and longtime Rat Fink T-shirt peddler Bert Grimm were also in attendance.
Although Mooneyes' main man Shige Suganuma reported a drop in participant entries this year, once the doors of the Yokohama Pacifico opened Sunday, December 2, just as many, if not more, people flooded in and filled the venue at the blink of an eye. As they did last year, Moon had its "portable" speed shop set up at the show, around which all the "import" hot rods were appropriately displayed. The Shifters huffed along a ton of T-shirts to sell, which, as expected, sold like hotcakes. Right behind the centerpiece shop that also acted as an outlet for the Moon Equipped line of goods, a stage was set up for the variety of rock 'n' roll bands that played throughout the day. The mass amount of Japanese stripers and artists were situated kitty-corner to the stage, and the majority of their works more than rivaled American offerings of late to say the least.
By day's end, the Moon brigade prepared for the awards ceremony. Along with a special plaque to be presented by Street Rodder, the Shifters and SO-CAL Speed Shop also handed out awards, and we were all asked to explain to the audience "why" we chose what we did. . .I'm not quite sure many people understood what we had to say, but they applauded when we were finished! The show definitely ended on a positive note, after which we loaded everything up and headed back for our last night in Yokohama.
Of course, we all would like to thank Shige and his entire Mooneyes Japan staff for taking great care of us once again, even with their hectic schedules. And a special thanks goes out to Takemaru Endo, for his expert "tour guide" skills and keeping us all out of trouble (or maybe that's the other way around?). Seeing rodding culture in Japan is a great experience for anyone with even the slightest interest in the hobby, and I can't stress enough how great it is to be a part of a similar way of life--halfway 'round the world!

Save maybe for the Mercedes headlights (it's a personal preference for sure), this chopped and channeled Shoebox Ford has "the" look. Originating from Southern California (Merc John in Riverside, to be exact), the slammed custom has been treated to a variety of Japanese touches, such as the flames, a blanket interior, and the aforementioned lighting treatment.Beatnik Yogi, proprietor of Koolsville in Tokyo (an outlet for American "Kulture" goods), proudly displayed his very Watson-esque '60 Squarebird strutted its stuff right near Moon central. Candy burgundy with pinstriped panels is highlighted by spider-equipped steelies and a period interior.A special guest of honor at the 10th Anniversary Mooneyes Hot Rod & Custom Show was Fred Larsen with his recently retired Larsen & Cummins streamliner. Not surprisingly, the record-setting duo wowed the crowds, and we're sure the Bonneville-proper show display had a little to do with that.Gene Olsen (left) and Pete Chapouris also made it to the show along with Gene's SO-CAL Speed Shop-built '51 Merc convertible, "O.B.'s Merc." Like the streamliner, the SO-CAL display had a constant flood of people swarming around it the entire day, which translated into tons of signed posters and snapshots.Mooneyes dedicated the 10th Anniversary Show to the memory of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth. And as a tribute, the overly talented Jimmy C. created this life-size statue, which was displayed next to Ed's old Honda Civic.

Greensboro, NC -- When you go to them, there's a message they can't operate during the shutdown. You think it's all automated, and takes little maintenance - so what gives?
Government agency leaders tell the website Politico, it all has to do with the servers. People actually keep those machines running, and they've been furloughed too. So if the website doesn't provide an essential service like protecting life or property, it's closed.
But there is a way to find information on those closed sites. The web site web.archive.org still has versions of those government pages - archived from just hours before the shutdown started.

With another year of highs and lows nearing its end, certain corporate houses have doubled their market wealth, while others have come close to losing half of theirs.
Shiv Nadar Group saw the sharpest rise in its market capitalisation at 97.24%, from Rs 44,238 crore at the end of 2012 to Rs 87,432 crore at the end of 2013. IT major HCL Technologies, which has seen its share price jump 101.24% in the current calendar year, has been the major contributor to the groups market wealth with Rs 86,531 crore.
The Shiv Nadar Group has come up the hard way. While currently, HCL Technologies is trading at lower valuations compared to the likes of Infosys,
Wipro and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a sustained growth could lead to re-rating, said Sonam Udasi, head (research), IDBI Capital.
Meanwhile, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), again an IT major, contributed Rs 4.13 lakh crore to Tata Groups total market wealth of Rs 6.69 lakh crore, helping the group cement its place as the most favoured corporate house on the Street.
IT companies have been attractive to fund managers and brokerages owing to the sharp depreciation in rupee seen during the year and relative earnings visibility. "The rupees slide acted only as a tail wind to the quarterly earnings of export-oriented sectors, the underlying demand trend is the bigger structural driver for earnings in these sectors, said Lalit Nambiar, fund manager, UTI AMC.
TCS has gained 66.81% in year-to-date. Meanwhile, Tata Groups market wealth has surged 35.27% in 2013.
Bharti Group, which was the third biggest corporate house in terms of m-cap at the end of December 2012, slipped to fifth spot in the pecking order. Although Bharti's m-cap grew 3.36% at Rs 1.61 lakh crore, Anil Agarwals Vedanta Group grew at an even faster pace of 29.93% to take over the third spot from Bharti. Vedantas market capitalisation stands at Rs 1.77 lakh crore at the close of 2013. Among other big names, Mukesh Ambani Group, saw its market wealth improve by just 6.84% to Rs 2.9 lakh crore. Share of the groups flagship company Reliance Industries gained 5.79% in year-to-date.
Anil Ambanis Group grew at an even slower pace of 1.82% to Rs 68,839 crore. Reliance Infrastructure and Reliance Power saw their market wealth erode by 16.61% and 23.30%,

San Diego, CA (Sports Network) - Cam Newton threw for 231 yards and two
touchdowns as the Carolina Panthers crushed the San Diego Chargers, 31-7, at
Qualcomm Stadium on Sunday.
Newton continued his strong play of late, completing 19-of-33 passes on the
day to help the Panthers (5-9) to their third win in four games. DeAngelo
Williams rushed for 93 yards on 22 carries and also caught two passes for 51
yards and a touchdown.
Steve Smith led all receivers with six catches for 57 yards and a score.
The Carolina defense constantly harassed Phillip Rivers, who fumbled four
times and was sacked on five occasions for San Diego (5-9), which was coming
off an impressive win against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Chargers totaled just 164 yards of offense for the game and scored their
lone touchdown in fourth quarter on a Rivers pass to Antonio Gates.
Rivers finished with 121 yards passing on 16-of-23 efficiency in the loss.
Carolina used a 13-play, 80-yard drive to open the scoring right away. After
Newton's pass fell incomplete on 3rd-and-1 from the San Diego two, he
scrambled for the necessary yard on fourth down before former Charger Mike
Tolbert powered his way in for the score.
Tolbert, who rushed for 40 yards on the day, found the end zone again shortly
thereafter following a Rivers fumble, punching in another 1-yard score to put
Carolina ahead 14-0.
After the Chargers were forced three-and-out on their second touch, Carolina
drove 72 yards on six plays to score its third touchdown of the period.
Newton completed a short pass to Greg Olsen for a first down before dumping
one off to DeAngelo Williams, who scampered 45 yards for a touchdown to give
the Panthers a commanding 21-0 lead with under a minute to play in the first
Following a series of punts, Carolina got the ball back at its own 24 with
1:45 to go until halftime and managed to drive 61 yards to get into field-goal
range. Newton completed six passes on the series to help set up Graham Gano
for a 33-yard field goal, giving the Panthers a 24-0 edge at the break.
The Panthers scored for the final time on their first touch of the second
half, as Newton fired a 4-yard touchdown strike to Smith to cap an 8-play, 56-
yard drive. Williams amassed 31 yards rushing on the series to help set up the
San Diego finally put some points on the board early in the fourth. After
Larry English recovered a Williams fumble, Rivers fired a 9-yard touchdown
pass to Gates in the back corner of the end zone to give the Chargers their
lone score of the day.
The TD reception was Gates' 81st of his career, tying him with Lance Alworth
for most in team history.
Rivers had the Chargers in Carolina territory again later in the frame after
completing a 30-yard pass to Malcolm Floyd, but a Mario Addison sack on the
following play forced him to fumble for the fourth time, ending the potential
scoring threat.
Game Notes
Newton has not thrown an interception in his last 153 passes, which is the
longest stretch in franchise history for a Carolina quarterback. It is also
the longest active streak in the NFL ... The Chargers have won just twice in
their past 10 games ... Carolina had 29 first downs compared to just 12 for
San Diego.

After a bit a struggle, I have Zimbra integrated into my SuSE 9.3 installation. It looks like a great product, thank you to the Zimbra team for providing this software.
I have been testing internally and everything looks fine. So, now I want to allow external access to my Zimbra server over the internet over SSL (https). This was fairly straight forward to setup. The issue I have now is that accessing the site is unbearably slow, the login process takes a good 1.5 - 2 minutes. After login is complete, everything runs smoothly. With SSL turned off, the very first time I access the site I get the very long login time but all subsequent logins are very fast.
Has anyone else experienced this behaviour or is there something that I'm missing in my configuration.
BTW, I have been testing with Firefox v1.0.7

My dad and I drew the East Northside Elk hunt. We also drew our second choice deer which was the W High Cascade hunt. My dad also drew a doe tag. I'm looking forward to spending lots of time with my dad. Good luck to all!
Umpqua that's great about your son. I can't wait until my three year old can get out there and hunt. I have spent a lot of time in that unit and have seen lots of antelope over the years. Good Luck
I appreciate any help you can send my way. I have hunted antelope quite a number of times, mostly in Wyoming, so I feel I can judge antelope fairly well. I just have never hunted Juniper. We've hunted West Beatys and South Wagontire in the past.
IWell UH,I'm certain a man with your experiance will find a very nice buck for your son. I've never been on an antelope hunt, I hope I know what I'm doing out there. I never sheep hunted before I drew that tag either, but it turned out ok. One good thing about the unit I drew is it's close to home, I'm in it in about an hour. Judging them is the thing I worry most about, the differance between a good buck and a realy nice buck is hard to tell. I have seen a couple "Holy S..t" bucks in my life, I hope to fine one of those!
Congrats to all you guys that drew tags. I can't wait to see all the pics.
My son and I drew Interstate deer, no elk, no sheep, no goat, whats new!!!
NRA Life Member OHA Life Member
Hunter for Life
My buddy in Wyoming drew his OIL Cali Sheep Tag for 570 B2 (E Beatys Butte/Alvord Peaks) that runs from 9/3-9/16. Any of you guys out that way that would care to chime in for areas to hone in on would be greatly appreciated. It is going to be quite a two or three week period because he already had drawn an archery bull elk tag for ne Nevada above Elko. It looks like we'll go to Oregon before Labor Day to scout and concentrate on taking a decent ram the first week and then head for Nevada for whatever time we have left in an attempt to fill that elk tag before that season ends on the 16th. Life is good!

Downtown Rifle got a face-lift. At least on paper.
On Friday, Oct. 12, in a conference room at the Rifle Branch Library, planner J.J. Folsom hunched over a large piece of drafting paper with a marker in hand, sketching out new sidewalks, curbs and landscaping improvements around the intersection of Centennial Parkway and Railroad Ave.
Architect Tim Van Meter drew solar photovoltaic panels onto the roof of the Garfield County administration building at the corner of Third Street and East Ave.
And transportation planner Jim Charlier showed a visitor a graphic of a proposed new bike path on the east side of Rifle Creek, between Third and Fourth streets. The path, he said, would create greater "porosity" and connectivity between downtown Rifle and Centennial Park to the west.
All three men are members of a consulting team working with city staff to draft a redevelopment strategy for downtown Rifle. The team, headed by Charlier, is funded by an $806,000 federal transportation planning grant awarded to the city in 2011.
At their day-long design session, the team worked to identify projects that could be completed in the near future, and could generate public interest in the larger goals of the revitalization effort.
Those goals may include a citywide trail network, new residential and retail development along West Second Street near the Brenden Multiplex Theatre, a new restaurant near the theatre, and perhaps the extension of Rifle's downtown one block to the south.
Charlier's team has sketched out all of these possibilities. Yet getting them built, he said, will require grants, interested developers, or both.
"We are really preparing this city to compete for grants," he said. "Rifle will have a competitive advantage when this is done."
Detailed planning provides clear direction to developers and grant makers alike, Charlier said.
On Nov. 6, a steering committee that oversees the city's federal grant will meet to discuss which of these larger projects they'd like to see move forward next year.
In the meantime, Charlier and his team hope to break ground on some smaller improvements that will beautify the downtown and set the stage for further development.
"We could have the county building be a prototype of the energy savings possible in the rest of downtown," said Charlier, referring to the county annex at Third Street and East Avenue. "We could easily reduce that building's energy use by half. The county could be our star pupil on this."
Architect Tim Van Meter's proposed overhaul of that building's façade calls for re-installing old windows along the front that could flood the interior with natural light, along with increasing solar exposure in the winter months, when the sun is low in the sky.
His plan would also add two stories of office space in the back of the building, and the installation of several kilowatts of solar panels, to reduce the building's use of fossil fuels. The design team is in discussion with the county about these proposed changes.
Other short-term efforts the team is pushing include so-called "gateway improvements" near the southern entrance to Rifle's downtown.
"The entrance to town is important for attracting investment," said Charlier, "and right now it's a bit rough and raw."
He said the team was looking at replacing Jersey barriers that now line the intersection of Centennial Parkway and Railroad Avenue with earthen hills, as well as installing a more permanent bus structure on the south side of Centennial Parkway.
Another possibility, he said, is to construct a display that draws attention to the natural gas pump at the Shell station on the corner of Railroad and Centennial.
The Colorado Department of Transportation or the city might consider funding those efforts, he said, while the trail improvements and street beautification could be eligible for grants from state groups, such as Great Outdoors Colorado.

Richmond, VA (Sports Network) - Darien Brothers scored a game-high 21 points

for the Spiders (2-0). Derrick Williams tallied 15 points, and Kendall Anthony
and Wayne Sparrow came off the bench to score 17 and 13, respectively.

Caravan stops in Warrensburg, Jefferson City, and Columbia
On Wednesday, Joakim Soria and Billy Butler joined Royals Hall of Famer Willie Wilson, hitting coach Kevin Seitzer, broadcaster Denny Matthews, and your favorite mascot, Sluggerrr, on a caravan to Central Missouri. Tina Short of the Royals Radio Network snapped pictures along the way. Here's a sampling:
The first stop was Martin-Warren Elementary in Warrensburg. The Royals will donate a pair of seats from Kauffman Stadium to each school that is visited during the caravan. Each school will also receive two copies of "H is for Home Run", a baseball-themed book that teaches the alphabet. The seats, after being autographed by the players/alums on the caravan, will be placed in the school's library as a reading area for students.
Here, Martin-Warren principal Jim Helmig and Willie Wilson smile for the camera as they sit in the stadium seats.
Sluggerrr was a popular photo-op in Warrensburg. Here he is with a few of his fans.
Billy Butler, the other slugger on the trip, reads "H is for Home Run" to the kids while the "Voice of the Royals" looks on.
Stop number two was Hy-Vee in Jefferson City. Baseball loyalties in the state capital are split with Missouri's NL team, but the Royals Caravan is always welcomed by a nice contingent of fans. The line stretched all the way to the back of the store when the caravan arrived.
The final stop of the day was Hy-Vee in Columbia. In the picture, Willie Wilson signs a 1980 World Series program for a fan. This begs the question…did this Royals fan buy the program on eBay or has he been waiting 28 years for this moment?

To answer the question in the caption, Yes, I was waiting over 28 years to remember to bring the World Series program to have signed. I would have brought the 1985 World Series program but could not locate it on short notice. It was great to see these guys. Thank you for coming to Columbia. Good Luck in 2009.
Great feedback! We snap your picture and you read the blog!
Thanks to everyone who attended a Royals Caravan event this week. We hope you can make it to FanFest!

Uhm, ok. Well, I guess you got nothing then. It was an honest question I asked, but if you aren't willing to answer it (or perhaps when presented with the facts that only 12% of their customers have the product, you realized you were toast).
Whatever. You joined in 2006 and 30% of your posts in 6 years are today. Weird.
What I'm saying is that given the opportunity, I bet 3 million Comcast and/or dish subscribers would sign up for Sunday Ticket.

Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like compound also called ubiquinone. It is an essential component of cells and is necessary for mitochondrial energy production. Years of research has shown that CoQ10 supports healthy cardiovascular and immune system functions in addition to its vital role in energy production.*
CoEnzyme Q-10 (CoQ-10) is a natural compound that is being used clinically to medically treat heart disease in Japan, Italy and China. CoQ-10 is also used as a natural health product in the USA, Canada and some other countries.
In the human body, CoQ-10 is found concentrated in the heart and liver tissue, where it functions in the respiratory electron transport system in mitochondria. Consequently, its toxicity to the human body is extremely low. It has ten isoprene units forming a side chain attached to benzoquinone ring and all the ten double bonds in the side chain should be ''trans'' form to be physiologically effective in medicinal applications.
Two manufacturing processes are currently being used in Japan to commercially produce CoQ-10:
1. Chemical synthesis process
2. Microbial fermentation process
In the case of chemical synthesis, relatively higher rates of ''cis''-isomers in the side chain (pharmacologically less active form) and Coenzyme Q-9 which has only 9 isoprene units in the side chain are formed as byproducts which must be eliminated from the final product through a purification process. On the other hand, the natural fermentation process yields the ''all-trans'' form Q-10 (pharmacologically active form), resulting in scarcely a trace of Coenzyme Q-9.
From 1969 to 1978, our Japanese vendor had expanded its efforts in the research and development of Single Cell Proteins (microbial protein). They have established a unique continuous fermentation process utilizing these single microbial cells, which does not allow contamination by undesirable organisms.
Based on this technology, they have developed their own proprietary process for the production of CoQ-10. The process uses a selected kind of Non-Genetically Modified Microorganism that is cultivated in a continuous fermentor. The fermentation broth is extracted, then further purified by a column chromatographic process to yield pure CoQ-10.The whole process is controlled under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) and the product is closely monitored according to the ''Standards for Ingredients of Drugs in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia.''
In addition to purchasing what we believe is the purest CoEnzymeQ-10 powder manufactured in Japan we analyze the incoming bulk material and each of our finished products. Our laboratory staff utilizes a sophisticated HPLC method to assure proper potency of CoQ-10 in the 10, 30, 50, 60, 100, 150, 200 and 400-milligram dose products NOW Foods sells. We work hard at making Quality affordable for you!

First-year student Gail Oesterle reflects on her experiences learning and serving in New Orleans.
A group of North Central students spent a week in New Orleans this December as part of the First-Year Experience program. Over the summer, all incoming first-year students read the Dave Eggers book "Zeitoun" about a family's struggles in the Crescent City following Hurricane Katrina's devastation in 2005. The theme of "Building an Ideal City" was explored during the seven-week FYE 100 course in the fall.

Mears Preview: Homestead-Miami Speedway

Mears Racing for Florida-based Hard Rock Vodka in 2011 Season Finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway
· Mears led more laps at Homestead-Miami Speedway than any other Sprint Cup Series track
· Joined Germain Racing last August and pilots the No. 13 Camry
· Crew chief Bootie Barker calls shots for Mears
Mooresville, N.C. (November 15, 2011) - Germain Racing is closing out the 2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season by premiering a fresh sponsorship relationship. Driver Casey Mears will pilot the No. 13 Hard Rock Vodka Camry at Homestead-Miami Speedway in the season finale on Sunday, November 20th. This will be the first time the No. 13 Camry has raced in colors other than those of long-time primary sponsor GEICO.
"Obviously it's very exciting to have a sponsor like Hard Rock Vodka come on board our No. 13 Camry for the Homestead-Miami Speedway race. GEICO remains our primary sponsor for 2012 but we'd certainly like to see the Hard Rock Vodka Camry race again for a number of the open weekends on next season's schedule," explained Mears, who has competed in eight Sprint Cup Series events at Homestead. "This team has built a lot of momentum in the last few weeks and we hope to carry that into Homestead for a great weekend with the Hard Rock Vodka Camry."
Crew chief Bootie Barker has prepared chassis 702 for Mears for Homestead competition. The Florida race will be the second event for the fresh Camry chassis.
"This race car is new to our fleet. We ran it at Texas and liked the characteristics we saw. It is a different chassis design than we've had in the past and it is truly a joint effort between Michael Waltrip Racing and Germain Racing that went into the build of this race car," said Barker.
Hard Rock Vodka, launched this summer by Ultimate Beverages of Boca Raton, FL, is a new sponsor in the NASCAR ranks. O.B. Osceola, co-founder, explains that the NASCAR fan base really is the perfect audience for Hard Rock Vodka.
"Hard Rock Vodka has been enjoying a great launch this year. In setting up the product at retail partners such as ABC, Crown, Discount Liquors and several others, what we've come to realize is that Hard Rock Vodka is a perfect fit for marketing to the NASCAR fan base. The product is based out of Florida, so putting Hard Rock Vodka on Germain Racing's No. 13 Camry at Homestead-Miami Speedway was a great opportunity to showcase the brand this season," explained Osceola, who also encourages fans to enjoy Hard Rock Vodka responsibly.
Hard Rock Vodka...Splashed with Rock 'n' Roll: Hard Rock Vodka is a premium, world class vodka imported from England. The vodka is distilled from the highest quality grain and filtered six times for exceptional smoothness and taste.

Name at birth: Frederick Karl Pruetzel
The son of a Puerto Rican mother and a Hungarian father, Freddie Prinze was a 20 year-old stand-up comedian when he earned a spot on the TV sitcom, Chico and the Man. The show made its debut in 1974, was a ratings success, and by 1977 Prinze was one of the biggest stars on TV. At the height of his popularity, despondent over personal problems and apparently under the influence of drugs, he shot himself in the head and died several hours later.
Prinze is the father of movie star Freddie Prinze, Jr.… Prinze's career, like that of Bill Cosby, took off after he appeared on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show… Prinze's death remains controversial: coroner Thomas Noguchi ruled it a suicide, but after Prinze's family challenged the ruling a jury decided the shooting was accidental, allowing Prinze's family to collect on his $200,000 life insurance policy.

Global Logistics: Asia Pacific's challenges and opportunities in market integration
September 01, 2012
While the EU appears to be increasingly fragmented, today's global shippers are viewing parts of Asia as a "single market." Indeed, the latest report from specialist research company Transport Intelligence (Ti) suggests that opportunities for U.S. companies will only get better in this dynamic commercial arena.
"Economic growth throughout Asia moderated in 2011 due to weaker demand in developed markets and especially the impacts of the Eurozone crisis," says Ti CEO John Manners-Bell.
"However, investment overall increased slightly and consumption remained buoyant."
China remained the strongest economy in the region, growing at roughly twice the pace of large countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. Korea and Taiwan both grew at slower rates, as weak investment compounded the effects of slower exports. Vietnam's economy grew in the mid-single digits due to strong growth in industrial output and consumption.

Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are a class of medications that are effective at easing depression symptoms. SNRIs are also sometimes used to treat other conditions such as anxiety and nerve pain.
Serotonin (ser-o-TOE-nin) and norepinephrine (nor-ep-ih-NEF-rin) reuptake inhibitors ease depression by affecting chemical messengers (neurotransmitters) used to communicate between brain cells. Like most antidepressants, SNRIs work by changing the levels of one or more of these naturally occurring brain chemicals.
SNRIs block the absorption (reuptake) of the neurotransmitters serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain. They also affect certain other neurotransmitters. Changing the balance of these chemicals seems to help brain cells send and receive messages, which in turn boosts mood. Medications in this group of antidepressants are sometimes called dual-action antidepressants.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved these SNRIs to treat depression:
All SNRIs work in a similar way and generally cause similar side effects. However, each SNRI varies in chemical makeup, so one may affect you differently than another does. Side effects are usually mild and go away after the first few weeks of treatment. Taking your medication with food may decrease nausea.
The most common side effects of SNRIs include:
Other side effects may include:

All over the world, many patients with serious illnesses can't get access to the medicines they need. The available therapies haven't worked and there are no available clinical trials, or a new drug isn't accessible where they live. For these patients, access to a drug outside of the traditional channels may represent a life-saving treatment option. How can industry help?
Since 1987, FDA-sanctioned "expanded access programs" have enabled patients, under specific circumstances, to access drugs or biologics still in development. Similar regulations exist broadly outside the U.S. but the nomenclature describing these programs differs widely. In an effort to bring much-needed clarity to all of this terminology, we use "Managed Access Programs" as an umbrella term that encompasses a variety of regulatory approaches enabling access to medicines that::

Runner's World Names Top Treadmills FreeMotion i7.7 Incline Trainer™ is honored
FreeMotion Invents New Fitness Category with Steep-Incline Exercise Machine for the Home
(January 17, 2008 - COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.) - Runner's World named the FreeMotion i7.7 Incline Trainer as one of its "Top Treadmills" in the magazine's annual treadmill review, published in the February 2008 issue.
Runner's World, which has increasingly published articles on the benefits of hill training, wrote about the FreeMotion i7.7 Incline Trainer: "If you're looking to run up the side of a mountain in the comfort of your own home, this is the treadmill for you."
"The first of its kind to go to a 30 percent grade, the Incline Trainer offers a unique and intense training experience that's ideal for anyone looking to do Pikes Peak or similar mountain races."
The new FreeMotion™ Incline Trainer i7.7 inclines from 0 to 30 percent. Most home treadmills reach maximum inclines of 10 percent, and even club treadmills top out at 15 percent. Quick touch buttons that increase the incline in 3 percent increments and an arrow key allows adjustments in 0.5 percent increments. The dramatic incline, a speed range of 0.5 to 12 mph, a 22-inch wide by 60-inch long treadbelt and a commercial grade 5 hp motor make this product combine to make the most versatile product for cardio exercise on the market.
FreeMotion Fitness, a brand of fitness products for the commercial fitness market, created the Incline Trainer for commercial fitness centers and elite training facilities in 2000. The success of FreeMotion's commercial Incline Trainer was so strong that the company launched a line of products designed specifically for the light commercial market, such as hotels, fire stations and community centers as well as the premium home consumer. The i7.7 Incline Trainer is part of this new offering, which launched in summer 2007.
With incline training, recreational and elite runners can improve their race times. Researchers at the University of Athens found that runners who added hills to their training runs increased their sprint speed by 3.5 percent.
Interval hill training on the Incline Trainer can also help athletes in all sports where short bursts of speed are crucial, such as soccer, tennis, basketball and football. Read more...

SOLON -- Solon schools say Parkside Elementary and Solon Middle school were briefly put on lockdown after police incident outside on state Route 91 (SOM Center Road).
Here is the statement Solon City Schools sent to parents:
During lunch today, Parkside Elementary and Solon Middle School went into a precautionary lock down due to a police incident on S.O.M. Center Road. The students were never in any danger and the lock down was only a precaution. Some students at Parkside were on the playground at recess when the lock down was called and they were rapidly ushered inside per the lock down procedures.
The all-clear was given very quickly. In fact, Solon Middle School was in the process of locking down when the clear signal was issued. Students were reassured that they were safe and that everything was fine.
Although some students said they heard gun shots, there were no shots at all fired. That is just a rumor among a few students, however, we wanted you to know that in case your child comes off the bus saying anything about gun shots.
The incident is still under investigation by the Solon Police and at this time no specifics can be released. Again, no students were in any danger today.

If you are in the United States, you are probably thinking "does not compute".
That day format (DD/MM/YYYY) is the one used by my Costa Rican banks and it is the one that makes most sense to me (going from smaller units, days, to the largest unit, years). When I feed the bank statements to my financing software, it chokes and labels everything opposite to what I want to in terms of months and dates. I thought I could easily fix this within Excel, but it was not as straightforward as I thought.
