David Berlow undertook the revival of Frederic W. Goudy's Village family in the early nineties as the first real step in the successful redesign of Esquire. Goudy originally cut Village No. 2 in 1932 to bring early ideas up to date, adding the italic a year or two later for his own satisfaction. Font Bureau expanded Village, the model for Goudy's mature style, into a ten part series designed for Esquire's use in text and display; FB 1994
Among other uses, Village is recommended for Newspaper, Magazine, Book and Corporate use.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation recently won a DMCA ruling that, under most 'fair use' circumstances, no longer makes it illegal to hack and jailbreak devices including video games and portable phones including Apple's iPhone.
Essentially consumers shouldn't need Apple's approval for everything you put in your device just because the device itself was made by Apple, much like you don't need HP's approval for the paper you put in their printer or Serta's approval for who can sleep on your mattress.
WorthPlaying.com and phoenixfire425 via our Forums HERE expanded on this ruling, to quote:
"In addition to jailbreaking, other exemptions announced Monday would:
- allow owners of used cell phones to break access controls on their phones in order to switch wireless carriers.
- allow people to break technical protections on video games to investigate or correct security flaws.
- allow college professors, film students and documentary filmmakers to break copy-protection measures on DVDs so they can embed clips for educational purposes, criticism, commentary and noncommercial videos.
- allow computer owners to bypass the need for external security devices called dongles if the dongle no longer works and cannot be replaced."

text: This is the third time my hunt in this unit has changed ,due to others conflicting schedules. Previously had 2 bow hunts planned, now the group I'm going with are wanting to hunt 3rd season rifle. I'm starting to get very frustrated. My question is has anybody hunted the 3rd season in this unit and had good luck? I need to know if I should stick with the hunt or break off and do my own thing.

1958 Chevy Impala - Of Old Cars And New CustomsWritten by on November 13, 2009 Contributors: Josh Mishler Charles Shane's '58 Chevy Impala
Being a fan of late '50s and early '60s American iron, it's no wonder Charles Shane chose a '58 Chevy Impala in which to build a mild custom of the same period. While the late '50s-era Chevys are commonly built as either restored drivers or as typical '50s customs with spotlights, wide whites, et al, Charles decided that a more mild approach would be more appropriate for the second-owner, 55,000 original-mile car. As he put it, "I had a different idea."
"I bought this car as a running basket case. It was in primer and had no interior, glass, or trim. I wanted to make sure of what I was working with so I sent it to Meadowlands Media Blasting in Meadowlands, Pennsylvania, where Kevin Kenuth stripped it to bare metal. I then put the talents of my own paintless dent repair business to work removing as many dings and dents as possible. This resulted in a super-straight car.
From there it moved onto Centerline Collision in Pittsburgh where Brad Spochaz and his crew put their magic touch to it. The result put the entire project on a whole different plane."
Nosed, decked, and partially shaved, the '58 relinquished a host of emblems and trim pieces before Spochaz and the crew blocked every square inch straight on the coupe. A custom copper hue using De Beers product was then applied to the lower two-thirds, while the roof was bathed in metallic black.
"After it was painted, my friends Dave Frost, Frank Pleil, and I started to reassemble the car. This is when disaster struck; the motor had antifreeze in it. So out comes the motor and it goes to Specialty Machine Operations (SMO) in Houston, Pennsylvania, for a complete rebuild with an emphasis on performance."
The crew at SMO tore the low-mileage 348ci Chevy engine down to the bare block and heads before machining and reassembling the long-block. While they were at it, a COMP Cams camshaft was installed to add a few ponies and a PerTronix ignition kit was dropped under the cap to provide a more reliable spark. The stock intake was detailed and reattached along with the Carter four-barrel carb topped with a vintage Cal Custom finned air cleaner. Matching Offenhauser valve covers add additional sparkle to the engine compartment while the Classic Auto Air and Powermaster PowerGEN provide creature comfort and peace of mind not found in the Impala originally.
To get the Chevy to sit right, like a true custom, Charles had the stock suspension components rebuilt before installing RideTech airbags at all four corners. Classic Performance Products 11-inch disc brakes were the other modern amenity installed on the chassis. Stockton Wheels fabricated a custom set of steelies in 17x7 for all four corners wrapped in Vogue Tyres upon which the Impala sits.
Laura Liptak, a local artist, found the copper-hued, '50s-inspired fabric, dragging Charles around the fabric store to show him the remnants she had spotted. Contrasted against a swatch of black Ultra Leather left no question in Charles' mind and he headed straight down to George Yago's upholstery shop in Jefferson Hills, Pennsylvania, with enough material to cover the interior of the car.
"From then on it was an uphill battle, fighting the old car and aftermarket gremlins to the finish ... 12 hours before the first day of the Goodguys Columbus 2009 show."
But Charles and the old coupe-cum-custom made it to the show, with the generous help from friends Dave Frost and Frank Pleil, without whom Charles reports none of this would have been possible. Here's to old cars, new customs, and good friends!

The original 348 Chevy engine was sent out to Specialty Machine Operations who rebuilt the W-head with a few performance mods in the shape of a COMP Cams bumpstick, a Powermaster PowerGEN alternator, and a PerTronix distributor kit. Finned Offenhauser valve covers and a Cal Custom air cleaner scoop are the resident dress-up items.Vogue Tyre & Rubber Company have provided custom luxury tires for some of the most discerning customers for over 95 years, while Stockton Wheel has been in the rolling game since 1883! That's a lot of history tied up in the 17x7 custom chrome wheels and 235/55R17 Vogue radials that reside at all four corners.The interior components were left intact, covered in black Ultra Leather with '50s-style fabric used as the copper insert material.Kudos for the custom upholstery job goes to George Yago, who manipulated the material Laura and Charles found.A reproduction tissue box cleverly hides the Classic Auto Air vents as well as the input for the MP3 player.

The Philadelphia Cream Cheese just sets it off so brilliantly and the taste is unbelievably fantastic! Everyone simply loved it as much as I!!
I took this to a potluck and my dessert was the only one eaten. Other people's store-bought desserts remained untouched. =0)
Love this cheesecake, so easy to make and it was a big hit with the the whole family.

Mary Roach in the 21st Century!
- next ›
- 608 of 735
- ‹ previous
Mary Roach is on the road again, touring the country to promote her new book Packing for Mars. She was at the Belmont library late August on a Monday (the 30th), and I got to sit down, drink some Tang, and listen to her talk about NASA and space and astronauts.
Nobody Could Hear Me Scream . . . Because I Was Sitting Quietly & Listening Respectfully
Roach's books (including Stiff, Spook, and Bonk) are science books, but science books with humor, and she always experiments with questions that most other reporters avoid. In Bonk she investigated the effect of Viagra on pandas mating in captivity and in Stiff she found out that corpses can climax.
So of course her newest book has an entire chapter on sex in space, how could it not? But that wasn't the focus of her reading at the library. Instead, she launched into a spirited discussion about the mechanics of going to the bathroom in zero-gravity. As part of her research, NASA let her try out one of the space toilets, which works by using a vacuum to perform the role that gravity usually does in our planet-bound bathrooms. She reported to her audience that the space toilet is equipped with a video camera within the toilet bowl, pointed upwards to help you with proper positioning when you go to sit down, the image projected onto a screen in front of you, because an improper eclipse will result in quite the mess.
Astronauts: The Elite Men and Women of Science!
Astronauts. They're a colorful bunch. They go into space, where no one has gone very often before. They ride in the fastest, least-fuel efficient vehicle ever invented by mankind. They have insane love triangles and drive from Houston to Florida while wearing diapers. Every little kid wants to be one when he or she grows up!
Roach had more to report on astronaut activity. One of the holy grails of astronauts while in zero-gravity is to launch themselves across the flight deck of a space shuttle using only their flatulence. Now, to date, no one has reported a successful propulsion from one side to the other. In fact, of those who have even attempted, none have moved even one inch. Roach's correspondents express doubt that it can even be done, saying that exhaled breath doesn't move an astronaut, and that the amount of gas expelled in a fart (about the size of three soda cans) isn't enough to propel that much human mass. But such doubts are not enough to deter these brave men and women (but mostly the men) of science, and they are not about to give up trying.
All I have to say is that a rocket isn't going to move you unless you have ignition.
Author Bio:
The name Josh Pearce literally means "co-traveler", "traveling companion" or "satellite." The first of these, Josh Pearce 1, was designed initially to carry nuclear warheads.

DETROIT (AP) — Detroit hosts Green Bay to kick off the traditional NFL Thanksgiving feast with a critical game for the Lions in the NFC North race.
Detroit will be trying to snap a two-game losing streak that's left the Lions at 6-5 and tied with Chicago for first in the division.
Dallas will be thankful if they get a home win today over Oakland that would allow the Cowboys, at a minimum, to hold onto a share of the lead in the NFC East. Dallas goes into today's game against the 4-7 Raiders tied with Philadelphia for the top spot in the division.
Pittsburgh and the Ravens enter tonight's critical showdown needing a win to stay in the post-season chase. Both teams enter the game a disappointing 5-6, two games back of Cincinnati in the NFC North, but still in contention for a playoff spot.
NBA fans will have to go cold turkey today with no hoops on the table, but the NHL has two games set.
Vancouver will try to break out of a 1-7 sllde when they visit Ottawa in a non-Thanksgiving Day game north of the border. Edmonton is at Nashville in a battle of two of the bottom four teams in the Western Conference.
And college basketball will be played. Second-ranked Kansas helps tip off the eight-team, three-day Battle 4 Atlantis basketball fest in the Bahamas. The 4-0 Jayhawks take on Wake Forest, while No. 23 Iowa puts its 5-0 record on the line against Xavier as part of the quarterfinal action.

I recently presented at the14th Annual Privacy and Security Conference held in Victoria, British Columbia. There were several things which I took away from the meeting.
The first takeaway is that even though the three keynote speakers all looked at the issue of security and privacy from different perspectives – they all agreed that the level of interest in these two areas is growing as governments begin to recognize that the World Wide Web crosses borders with impunity.
The second takeaway was that standards creation is largely ignored. Mostly, the discussion was on standards and regulation implementation not on the act of creation. My presentation – "Whose Internet is it?" – focused on the groups that create basic Internet and telephony standards. The intent of the presentation was to convince people that they can (and should) get involved in creating the standards that drive the Web.
The final takeaway was that the distinction between standards and policy is becoming very blurred and the implications for national governments and for commercial providers are significant. On one hand, a nation has the right (and sometimes the duty), to protect itself and its citizens. For this, there exists the traditional standardization venues. On the other hand, there is the growing realization that these traditional bodies are ill equipped to deal with the increased pace of technology change that the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) world is experiencing. Throw into this mix open source and IPR, social change, and increasingly, mobile telecommunications, and you have a volatile mix.
This is an interesting, challenging, and confusing time for those involved. The collision of regulations, innovation, policy, technology, and a host of other factors, of necessity, make the issue complicated and complex – but very relevant to how the Web will evolve. Adobe will continue to follow this issue as it unfolds, and we welcome your perspectives and comments.

...and so did Marc apparently (lucky G)
All I mean is reference to slash fanfiction aka man on man action. Tennis has a small but active community of slashers and really thanks to pictures like this, the stories write themselves. ;)ReplyDelete

I need a cold shower, too!
Oui, oui!
Speaking of man on man action, if you look closely (and I'm sure we all did), there seems to be a semi-naked photo of a man on the wall facing us. Richie, go join that gym and report back to us at once! Take lots of photos in the showers. Oh yes, set up a drinking night for me and Gilles, too. ;)

St. Louis, MO (KSDK) - A restaurant receipt from St. Louis has gone viral, after a pastor had an interesting message for her server at a south city Applebee's, which ultimately resulted in another waitress getting fired.
On the receipt, the pastor wrote, "I give God 10%, why do you get 18?" She then scratched out the $6.29 automatic gratuity and wrote "0" on the tip line. The automatic tip was added because this bill was part of the overall tab for a large dinner party.
The pastor was dining out last Friday following services at her church, Truth in the World Deliverance Ministries.
Another waitresses at the Applebee's posted a photo of the receipt on the social network site Reddit, sparking online outrage.
In an interview with The Smoking Gun website, the pastor described her actions that night as a "lapse in my character and judgment." However, the pastor claims despite crossing out the automatic gratuity, she did leave $6 in cash behind for the server.
When the pastor called Applebee's management to complain, she was told the waitresses responsible for posting the image of the receipt would be fired.
"I originally posted the note as a lighthearted joke," said the waitress in an interview with The Consumerist. "I thought the note was insulting, but it was also comical. I posted it to Reddit because I thought other users would find it entertaining."
The waitress also claims that when the pastor called Applebee's, she demanded everyone at the restaurant be fired.
Applebee's issued the following statement on Thursday: "Our Guests' personal information -- including their meal check -- is private, and neither Applebee's nor its franchisees have a right to share this information publicly. We value our Guests' trust above all else. Our franchisee has apologized to the Guest and has taken disciplinary action with the Team Member for violating their Guest's right to privacy. This individual is no longer employed by the franchisee."

WASHINGTON – Virginia will join 14 other states and charge a monthly fee for an E-ZPass transponder.
Virginia Department of Transportation spokeswoman Tamara Rollison says the fee is expected to be about a $1 a month in Virginia. Maryland charges a $1.50 a month.
"Our administrative costs are going to go up because we have to buy more transponders. We have to upgrade our technology," said Rollison.
VDOT expects demand for the passes to go up by about 500,000 transponders once the Express Lanes open on the Capital Beltway and Interstates 95 and 395.
That could be followed in a year or two with more tolls on I-95 south of Fredericksburg.
The monthly fee could begin as early as July.
Virginia will not charge users a $25 deposit on the transponder which many states do.
E-ZPass is used by 24 states, mostly on the East Coast. The tolls are collected electronically and charged to the driver's account which is replenished with a credit card.

ASHBURN, Va. (WUSA) -- Loudoun County Sheriff's Office authorities say the driver involved in a reported hit and run crash that injured a 15-year-old high school student has been identified.
While he was trying to cross Claiborne Parkway from the Portsmouth Boulevard side to the Breezyhill Drive side, the teen boy was struck by a vehicle at approximately 4:15 p.m. last Friday, say authorities. According to authorities, the driver was reportedly making a right turn from Portsmouth Boulevard onto Claiborne Parkway when the teen was hit in the crosswalk.
The driver reportedly stopped the car and spoke to some bystanders before taking off.
The teenager was taken to a hospital by a family member and treated for non-life-threatening injuries, say sheriff's office authorities.
Authorities say the case is under investigation and it's being reviewed with the Office of the Commonwealth's Attorney.

I am wondering whether it is possible for me to write my own connector to work with the open source version of the Zimbra server.
I know the open source version doesn't support the standard connectors (like the "iSync/CalDAV connector"), and I would like to know if I could implement the same protocol into my own connector and use it in the same way.
If yes, is the API documented and available?
Thank you for any information.

2011 True Street ChallengeWritten by on July 19, 2011 Contributors: Dave Young Eight cars take the gamble out in Vegas for the 2011 True Street Challenge
The slogan What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas doesn't apply here because what happens in Vegas every year at the Moparty at the Strip show must be shared. From the terrific racing action, to the enormous swap meet, vendor village, Hotchkis autocross, and car show--this event has it all. It also happens to be the event we choose to host our Mopar Muscle True Street Challenge.
Each year we make small changes or adjustments to the way we operate and/or score the True Street Challenge. This year, we made a few alterations to the scoring system that would place more importance on the track passes made by the competitors, and we would average the scores accrued in the categories of Show, Street, and Road worthiness. This made the scoring system fairer, in our minds, and added balance to the scoring and we're happy with the results.
As with every year, we had some terrific cars apply for the True Street Challenge. We chose the cars that we felt embodied the closest interpretation of the ultimate street cars. Once selected, they were requested to meet with us at our True Street Challenge parking area near the main gate. As the cars staggered in, we knew it was going to be a competitive field since each one stood out in their own way.
After two days of judging and scoring, the clear winner ended up being Dennis Knox with his '71 Dart Swinger. What's more impressive is that there were three competitors just shy of his lead, and their scores could have gone in their favor with a slightly quicker pass or slightly better on-road manners.
Congratulations to Dennis and to the rest of our competitors who braved rain and snow--yes, snow--to be in our Challenge. We hope to see you all next year at the Moparty at the Strip event!
1 Dennis Knox
Chandler, AZ
'71 Dodge Dart Swinger
Dennis Knox's Swinger is a real head-turner. Dennis and his father Mark performed all the bodywork--much of it custom--themselves. A '09 Dodge Challenger hood was hacked up and modified to fit onto the original Swinger hood--keep in mind the new Challenger hood is aluminum and the Dart's hood is steel. Once they were happy with the way it turned out, they modified the doors to use '70 Challenger door handles and wedged a set of '70 Road Runner taillights into the bumper. After the bodywork was completed, Dennis took the car to his friend Chris at Elite Automotive Finishes in Mesa, Arizona, where it was painted two-tone bright silver on the bottom and burgundy with red pearl on top.
To further enhance the Dart's visual appeal, a set of 18x7-inch front and 18x8-inch rear American Racing wheels were slapped on to shroud a set of Dart front disc brakes and 10x2.5 rear drums. Inside, Tim at Classic American Rides in Gilbert, Arizona, performed all the work on the interior upholstery--recovering the SRT-4 seats in black suede and fabricating a new center console.
The original Slant-Six was cleared out to make room for the new-to-Dennis 440. Inside the big-block is an impressive rotating assembly consisting of Keith Black forged pistons, forged rods, and a Chrysler steel crank. A custom set of aluminum 440 Source heads were modified by Howards. A FAST EZ EFI system mounted to an Edelbrock Single Plane intake manifold round out the engine combination. For the exhaust, Dennis went with a 3-inch center-exit exhaust--a la SRT8 Cherokee--with tti headers and Hooker mufflers. The distributor is an MSD Billet and the oiling system is from Mopar Performance. Ed Little from Chandler, Arizona, rebuilt the 727 to handle the power and is shifted by a B&M Stealth Ratchet. The transmission uses a 3,000-stall Rev Max Billet torque converter with an anti-ballooning plate built by Tom Hauser in Phoenix. Dennis tells us that he's gone a best of 11.71 seconds at 118.24 mph, but, as you see, he didn't quite reach that elapsed time with the Vegas air. It didn't matter. The combination of excellent looks, terrific road manors, and impressive track times were enough to take home the victory.
2 Matt Morrison
Chatsworth, CA
'69 Plymouth Roadrunner
The Saddle Bronze paint on Matt's Road Runner was looking clean, and it featured a tan top that we don't commonly see. Matt tells us that the paint job was a little over 10 years old, and for its age, it was extremely impressive. This helped it receive high marks for its paint and trim. Matt also did a terrific job of restoring the interior to original by using a headliner from YearOne, a restored dash from Just Dashes, and Legendary Auto Interiors for the seats and carpeting.
The key to Matt's success with the car is its combination. Starting with the suspension, he used Competition Engineering adjustable front shocks, and rear Mopar 50/50 shocks with Super Stock springs and an adjustable pinion snubber. This allows Matt to dial in the weight transfer onto the massive 325/50R15 BFG Drag Radials. The unassuming car also wears a set of custom Magnum 500 wheels that measure 15x7 inches up front and 15x10 out back. They deliver an authentic look with all the grip the B-Body needs to sling it down the track. The Runner also features the factory 8-3/4 rear that houses a set of 3.91 gears and front disc brakes.
For his powerplant, Matt chose a low-buck 400 block that he pushed to over 500 cubic inches, thanks to a 4.240-inch steel Mopar stroker crank. Forged CP pistons and H-beam rods, while a 302/310-duration Crane roller cam spins inside. On the top of the motor is a Holley 850 bolted to a Mopar M1 intake manifold ported to match the Edelbrock aluminum heads. The engine was converted to a Pertronix electronic ignition system and uses a Mopar Performance oiling system. Ollie Hellert in Van Nuys, California, used the 2-inch primary tti headers to make a custom exhaust. Starting at the 3-1/2-inch collector, the pipes were brought down to 3-inches before flowing through a set of Dynomax mufflers. Leon's Transmission in Reseda, California, rebuilt the automatic and installed a 3,400-stall TCI StreetFighter converter. Matt's Road Runner was on point and running just shy of his personal best of 12.13 at 112.2. Proving it doesn't require an expensive engine to run a solid number in a street car.
Matt Morrison braved the passing of his mother just a week before the event to make it out to the show. We hope the weekend lifted his spirits and we're happy he made it out. He would like to dedicate his car to his mother, Dorothy Krutz.
3 Randy Ives
McCloud, CA
'70 Plymouth 'Cuda
When Randy and his friend Reno rolled up to the TSC parking area, they definitely announced themselves. Randy got together with Reno to figure out how to bring the car to the level of impact it has now and Reno knew just the guy: a California native by the name of Dave Lovely. "He turned almost every nut and bolt on this restoration, and he's damn good," says Reno. Shawn Kenny out of Redding, California, restored the interior to like new condition by using parts from Legendary Auto Interiors. On the outside, the 'Cuda's shape was accentuated by a flawless application of B5 blue paint that was so fresh it was almost dripping wet. A man by the name of "Long Hair" Bill Brown out of Mt. Shasta, California, was the suspect involved in spraying the car.
Underneath, the E-Body was freshened up with new bushings, a Firm Feel steering box, and A-arms. A set of factory-style steel wheels were widened in the rear to a 16x10 inches with 16x7 wheels up front.
The original 440 was great but not what Randy had in mind. "We decided to put the motor aside in favor of an all aluminum 528 with an EFI-injected billet Six-Pack throttle body from F&B. The engine was built at Ray Barton's shop, and inside are eight forged Diamond pistons with H-beam rods and a steel Mopar crankshaft. Ray spec'd a custom cam for the engine with a top-secret cam card. The most impressive part of the combination is perhaps the experimental raised port heads developed by Ray. The engine is lubricated with an external system and the exhaust is a custom combination from tti with 2-inch primary tube headers spilling into 3-1/2-inch collectors then into 3-inch pipes and Magnaflow mufflers. The engine combo was put on the engine dyno and achieved an impressive 674 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque.
This car was fresh and Randy and Reno still insisted on entering the Challenge with it, knowing it would be put through its paces. This didn't deter Reno, who Randy chose as his driver. It did quite well on the street and when it came time for the track, Reno used a simple technique of launching off idle to be as easy on the car as possible. Still, the bulbs lit up showing a mid 13-second pass at just over 100 mph on a pure street tire.
4 James Zimmerman
Rosamond, CA
'70 Dodge Challenger
Unlike the other cars in this competition, James' Challenger was his daily driver. As an aircraft engine mechanic at Edwards Air Force Base, he felt right at home under the airborne splendor brought to us by the neighboring Nellis Air Force Base. He's owned the car since he was 16 and now, at the age of 24, the Challenger has gone from a $2,000 rust bucket to a proud GoMango show-stopper. Thanks to James' discipline, he was able to rebuild the car as he worked through high school. "Instead of your average gifts, I would receive sheetmetal for my birthday and Christmas," he tells us. For his graduation gift, his father had the car painted.
He did all the interior work himself. The seats were recovered with Legendary Auto Interiors covers, the new carpet and a headliner came from YearOne, and the dash was refurbished by Ultimate Rides in Texas. For the chassis, James put his mechanic skills to the test installing a set of SSBC Force 10 front brakes with slotted rotors and tubular upper and lower control arms from Firm Feel and Cap Auto, respectively. Edelbrock Performer IAS shocks dampen road imperfections to an impressive level while Summit Racing 1-inch drop rear leaf springs help deliver the stance he was looking for. To achieve the look, a set of American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels measuring 17x7 inches front and 17x9.5 were mounted. They're wrapped in BFGoodrich KDW 225/45R17 and 275/40R17 modern rubber. The bodywork and paint were done by Phoenix Automotive in California City, California.
A 318 originally found haven under the hood but, rather than spend his time and money building the smaller motor, he stepped up to a 360. "I chose the 360 because of the amount of torque they can produce and because you find more of them lying around than a 340," he says. Inside the 360 is a set of Speed Pro pistons, factory rods, and a factory crankshaft that were put together by Adams Metalizing in Lancaster, California. A Comp Cams .525/.525, 231/237 camshaft on a 110 LSA was slid inside and utilizes the better flow of the Edelbrock aluminum heads. An Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap intake and Holley 670 Street Avenger carburetor make up the intake side of the engine. For the exhaust, tti 15/8-inch small-block headers and a 3-inch Flowmaster exhaust evacuate the fumes. The car was converted to an MSD 6AL and uses a Super SS Coil and Pro Billet distributor. The oiling system is stock. Mike's Transmissions out of Palmdale, California, built James a 727 transmission with a 3,000-stall B&M converter.
When we discovered that James drove the car every day, we wanted to give him extra points! This car had some terrific paint and its on-road manners were smooth. At the track, his mid 13-second run kept him competitive with the top of the field.
5 Dan and Connie Campbell
Yucaipa, CA
'71 Plymouth 'Cuda
The car you see today is very different from the car that Dan remembers purchasing in 1993. According to Dan, he owned a 'Cuda back in high school but sold it in 1984 when he started his family. "I found [this one] at a car show as a stripped down racer with its original engine and transmission sitting beside it. Once I saw it, I knew I had to have it and couldn't resist." Dan made the deal and took the car home to begin the long restoration process back into a street car.
Gabe's Restoration in his hometown did the paint and bodywork to make its racing roots a thing of the past. Underneath, the car reverted stock with all new bushings and stock front and rear shocks. The steel wheels covering the front discs and rear drums wear 215/70R15 and 255/60R15 BFGoodrich radials. Revamping the interior, Upholstery in Motion, based in Redlands, California, started with a beaten racer and revived it using parts form Legendary and restored various pieces to like-new.
Johnson's Machine, also in Yucaipa, rebuilt the original 340 with Keith Black pistons and stock rods, crankshaft and stock cam. A set of aluminum Edelbrock heads and carburetor were thrown on to shave some weight from the nose and add a little more power. Dan then ordered a full tti exhaust system with 2-1/2-inch tubing and sent the automatic off to BodTrans in Redlanda, California, to be rebuilt. The ignition and oiling system are stock.
6 Mike Mars
Aurora, CO
'66 Plymouth Belvedere
Mike's '66 Belvedere was in contention to be the quickest car in the group and it's surprising how close some of these cars were running with each other with radically different setups. The black Belvedere came into the hands of Mike by luck. His friend, Patrick Butler, purchased it for $1,200 as a 318 car with around 200,000 miles on it. It had rusted quarters and a three-on-the-tree. Patrick eventually bought a Duster from Mike's brother and offered the Belvedere to him for $600.
The story with the car is filled with attrition. His first engine bent a rod and cracked the block. From there, he built a 340 for use with spray, and melted six pistons not too long after. Bob Baldwin rebuilt the 340 and it lasted for 20 years before needing to be rebuilt and that lasted for six years before the crankshaft broke. The frustration got the best of Mike and he decided to get a fresh start with a 415 small-block from Indy that he would run with the bottle.
Inside the new 360 block is a set of forged Wiseco pistons attached to Eagle SIR I-beam rods and a cast Eagle 4340 crank. He selected a Comp 254/262 duration .576/.597 lift camshaft. Bob was again elected to take care of the top end and chose aluminum Edelbrock heads that were ported and milled bringing compression to 11:1. Air and fuel is collected by a Demon Six Shooter carburetor and a Mopar Performance Six-Pack intake manifold. The ignition system was swapped to a MSD 6AL using an MSD Pro Billet distributor and the oil pump is from Melling. A set of Flowmaster mufflers and Hooker headers struggle to tame the sound of the big-cube small-block as it screams down the track or rumbles down the street. Gone is the three on the tree in favor of the reliable TCI 727 transmission using a 4,000-stall and a B&M Mega Shifter.
A while back, the bodywork was completed and it was painted Coach Black in his friend's garage in Aurora. Surprisingly, the suspension is mostly stock, save for the rear Cal-Tracks and a mini-tub. The Plymouth rides on Weld Aluma Stars measuring 15x3-1/2 inches up front with Mickey Thompson front runners and 15x10 out back with 28x13.50 slicks. Inside the car looks extremely clean and fresh, thanks to a pair of low-back racing seats and new, red carpeting from YearOne. "My favorite thing about the car is that some cars can only be driven on the street or at the track and this can do both," he proclaims. He was dead consistent too, with a pair of near 11-second passes under his belt for the TSC passes.
7 Buddy Marshall
Cedaredge, CO
'69 Plymouth Road Runner
Buddy almost didn't make it to the competition because the car he originally entered wasn't able to come on the trip to Vegas. Thankfully, he had another trick up his sleeve with this gorgeous '69 Road Runner he just completed. Brian McCain in Delta, Colorado, applied the Sunfire Yellow paint and gave a great attention to detail to make it look as close to showroom stock as possible. Once the paint was dry, Roger Donner restored the interior with Legendary parts, recovered the seats in new white vinyl, and installed new black carpeting.
The chassis is all stock but Buddy wanted to go with a set of early '60s Dragmaster wheels that are staggered 14x8 inches in front and 15x10 in the rear. They wear BFG rubber measuring 235/70R14 front and 245/60R15 rear. The 383 under the hood is also an entirely stock, numbers matching motor that has never been rebuilt. Buddy was worried about thrashing on the car and took it easy down the track. But the bodywork and road manners received some of the top marks.
8 Gary Helwig
Lockeford, CA
'65 Plymouth Belvedere
If there were a category for shock and awe—possibly for next year—there would have been a clear winner with Gary Helwig. His '65 Belvedere was certainly the talk of the group because of it's evil cackle coming from the side exhaust, giant wing, outrageous paint job and attention to detail. The car was painted by Thomas Auto Body in Lodi, California, and was then sent to Dan Trick at Air Paint Works to have custom air brushing misted on the car.
Underneath, the car was converted to a tubular K-frame up front and a four-link out back. A Dana 60 stuffed with 4.56 gears was narrowed and the back of the car was fully tubbed to accept the steamroller 33.0x17x15 Mickey Thompson Sportsman tires mounted to 15x17-inch Pro Stars. The fronts are your traditional 15x5-inch Pro Stars with 195/65R15 BFGoodrich radial tires. Gary also tossed the factory brakes for a set of Wilwood binders on all four corners. In the cockpit, Gary filled the dash with the proper gauges to keep him up to date with the engine's behavior and installed new black carpeting and racing seats from Summit Racing.
The powerplant behind the mad machine was in the car when Gary acquired it, so he's not exactly sure what's inside, he just knows it runs strong. He added a Weiand High Rise manifold with a big Dominator carburetor breathing through the large, pro stock scoop. The evil sound is thanks to his custom exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers and a big 3-inch megaphone side-exit tip. Unfortunately for all of us, the car didn't pass the NHRA tech inspection and wasn't allowed to make any hits down the track. It scored well in the categories it was judged in but the lack of a track pass gave him a default score in the category.

Well, for the rhumb lines, I wrote a script to do it automatically. You set a bunch of parameters, and it spits out an SVG image. http://www.cartographersguild.com/au...generator.html
I had wasted my entire day to do some proper Compass Roses, but hell am I slow.....
Do someone know a quicker way to do such things?
Here are some results:

The classic way is to derive your single point element and then make a circular array (or copy/paste/rotate). Other than that I can't really think of a good technique, especially for those cases where folks want a distinctive north marker, lesser EWS markers, and lesser still fractional markers. And even then, that basic style of the rose requires something called artistic sensability, which I really don't have much understanding of.
I had analyse over 100 Compassroses from old maps writing ob a concept letter with detailed construction plans, I was in awe about how much simplicity but on the other hand complexity there was within the compassroses on the maps, (15. -17. AD)
Following on from what Waldronate said: most good vector drawing programmes allow you to replicate and rotate. So if I need 360 small ticks in a circle I will use Serif Drawplus to make it. I draw one tick, I move the centre of rotation of the tick to where I want the centre of the circle of ticks to be. I then use a command which will draw 359 ticks each at 1% to the last around the centre of the circle. It takes a few seconds to do. I would be surprised if Inkscape did not have this capability.
Hi Revells
I just downloaded this Drawplus thingy and will try it out today, this sounds exectly what I need.
Could you do me the favour and make a small screenshot or something how to do this? I am kind of a noob in vectorthings.
I did a video.....let's see if it works

Colorado partnership garners $50K for successful landscape management
Working together, federal and state agencies, local governments, environmental groups, public stakeholders and local utilities are improving wildlife habitats in Western Colorado's natural spaces while reducing fire danger that threatens the landscapes and power lines.
Western is one of the partners of the Western Colorado Landscape Collaborative, which garnered the prestigious 2013 Colorado Collaboration Award and a $50,000 prize to further the non-profit's efforts.
"The ecosystems in Western Colorado are under attack from disease, drought and wildfires, and those are higher-level problems than just one entity can deal with," said Western's Rocky Mountain Special Programs Manager Ron Turley. "[The collaborative partnership] is a sign of the times in natural resources management. Natural resource managers realize that issues like these goes beyond their jurisdictions and require partnerships with other government entities and the public. A broader landscape perspective and collaborative effort was the only way to get it done."
The Colorado Collaboration Award is a prize offered each year by a group of foundations and corporate funders to an outstanding nonprofit collaboration. The award will be officially presented at Colorado Nonprofit Association's Fall Conference & Exhibition in Denver Oct. 7.
"We're proud and excited to have been selected as the winner of the Colorado Collaboration Award," said Pam Motley, Director of Uncompahgre/Com, which manages the Western Colorado Landscape Collaborative. "This prize will help us continue major initiatives such as the Escalante Forest Restoration Project."

It's been a good long while since I've posted a map (roughly 2 months), so I thought I'd go ahead and do another. This one's taken me about 3 days, or about 10 hours of total work. All done in Adobe Photoshop. The 2 fonts I used were Optimus Princeps Bold, and Aladdin (just for the compass letters). The original dimensions were 2200x1200.
It's an island chain, situated squarely in the middle of a small ocean (though it's still a few weeks of travel time, as a ship sails). Think Hawaii, or the Azores, for reference. The map is 300 miles wide, and roughly 160 miles tall.
Two nations are currently in the middle of an uneasy truce after a brief yet bloody war for the islands. The Exari Empire, located to the west, want control of the islands due to their strategic value, and for their prime location for trade in the Aladric ocean. The Velires Council governs the most of the islands. The culture of the islands is a mixing pot of all those surrounding them, with the two main contributors being the Exari (now in disfavor due the the recent conflict) and the Czelek, an Oriental themed people from the east.
There's a bit more history, but I'm gonna assume you're here more for the cartography, not the history If you want more, you only have to ask. So, without further ado, here's my brand new map
Hope you like it! Any and all constructive criticism is welcomed, as well as your praise for things I managed to get just right If there's anything you feel should be added or subtracted, just let me know. This map could easily have more added to it, but I'm simply not creative enough to know what else it could have in it
Thank you!

It's always worth trying nondrug remedies first, because it's best not to expose your developing baby to any drugs if you can help it. But if these approaches don't bring relief, ask your practitioner which nausea medications might be effective for you. A variety of drugs – in both pill and suppository form – are considered safe to take for nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, although not all of them will work for everyone.
Let's start with what's available over the counter:
Although not officially approved for morning sickness, Emetrol is a nonprescription nausea medication that's considered safe during pregnancy. Reflux medications such as Zantac or Pepcid sometimes work for expectant moms whose nausea and vomiting is triggered by gastrointestinal distress.
Vitamin B6 is often helpful for moms-to-be with mild to moderate nausea.
Antihistamines have also been used to treat nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. Your practitioner may recommend doxylamine, an antihistamine that's available as a sleeping pill under the brand name Unisom Nighttime Sleep-Aid. (Don't confuse Unisom Nighttime Sleep-Aid with Maximum Strength Unisom SleepGels – they're two different things.) One caution: Doxylamine can make you sleepy, so don't drive when taking it.
Vitamin B6 and doxylamine have often been used in combination to treat morning sickness. In fact, the FDA has approved this combination for nausea and vomiting during pregnancy under the brand-name Diclegis. Your practitioner may write you a prescription for it or have you take the over-the-counter combination.Other prescription nausea medications include Zofran, Compazine, Tigan, and the antihistamine Phenergan. (Note: Compazine and Phenergan should never be taken together.)
If your nausea and vomiting are so severe that you can't keep anything down, including water, juice, food, prenatal vitamins, and medications, you probably have a condition called hyperemesis gravidarum. If your situation is that severe, your doctor will most likely want to check you into the hospital for treatment with intravenous (IV) fluids and medications.
Many IV drugs have been used to treat hyperemesis gravidarum in combination with fluids, vitamins, and minerals. The IV drugs that your practitioner might use include antihistamines, dopamine antagonists, serotonin antagonists, chlorpromazine, and glucocorticoids.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
Love the action.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I got the 9ft 5wt for streamers and nymphing and it performs well. The fast action allows for an easy mend and gets a streamers out there! I have also put a dry fly on it and it was surprisingly great!
Fast action, responsive and powerful rod
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Purchased the 9' 8wt and it is a great rod for the current sale price. I don't feel it is worth the full retail price ($379), but it is certainly an upgrade from my older Redington RS4, as it has a slightly faster action with more zing given the same energy input. Finish is very nice and the reinforced ferrules and section above the cork are confidence-inspiring when fighting big coho salmon. This is my new go-to rod for salmon.

|Event Center hits final construction stages
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Construction on the new Phillips County Event Center should be wrapped up by the end of the month, reported County Commissioner Bud Biesemeier. There are just a lot of little things left to do, he said.
While the building isn't completely done, enough progress was made for two events to take place in the big room Saturday, Nov. 14—Extension's small ruminant program during the day and Pheasants Forever annual banquet that evening.
In addition to the big Event Center room, the west side of the building has a large kitchen area, a sound system, an office for the Phillips County Arts Council and restrooms that are also accessible from the fairgrounds to the north.
The entry way will display artwork from the Arts Council as well as a wall with Event Center donors. The middle of the building has a large storage area with cement walls that can be used as a storm shelter.
The east side is the education wing with a large area for Dragon's Wagon Preschool as well as classrooms and a computer lab for Phillips County Family Education Services. Extension offices will also be located at the Event Center with additional rooms to be used for teaching 4-H classes. There are also restrooms that can be accessed from Homesteaders Park.
Biesemeier said they are waiting on a grant to finish the landscaping and parking lot. Two driveways curving up to the building will be used for drop offs, and a water runoff system will utilize a retention pond to the south of the building.

A second suspect in a deadly Indianapolis house explosion is seeking to move his trial outside the city because of publicity about the case.
WISH-TV reports Mark Leonard filed a motion for a change of venue with the Marion County prosecutor's office on Tuesday. The motion cited publicity surrounding the Nov. 10 explosion in the Richmond Hill neighborhood that destroyed 33 houses and killed two people.
Prosecutors object to the request and say it's possible for Leonard to get a fair trial in Indianapolis.
Leonard's motion follows one by girlfriend Monserrate Shirley, who requested her trial be moved for the same reasons.
Investigators say Shirley, Leonard and Leonard's brother Bob intentionally set a gas explosion in their home for insurance money. They face murder, arson and conspiracy charges.
