Steve Young's '32 Tudor - Let It RoarWritten by on April 15, 2008 Open Headers When You Want 'Em, Full Exhaust When You Need It
If you've already checked out our coverage of the 2008 Grand National Roadster Show, you've seen Steve Young's outstanding flamed '32 Tudor. Steve teamed up with Tommy Otis, in addition to Rick Cresse at Tri-C Engineering in Valencia, California, to build this show-stopping sedan. The induction system on the '58 392 Hemi includes an Edelbrock ram log manifold plus six Strombergs plumbed with lines and banjo fittings from Blundell Speed & Machine. But it's the exhaust system we're interested in right now.
Since Steve's Deuce pays tribute to the drag racers of the early 1960s, everybody involved agreed that it needed open headers. Since it is also intended for cruising on the street, Steve needed to create some way to quickly switch to a closed exhaust system to keep it legal.
There are a few ways the guys could've accomplished the job. When Editor Kevin replaced the pipes on his '32 roadster (Jan. '07 issue), he installed an electronic cutout system from Doug's Headers. For this project, they kept things a little more fundamental. Instead of capping the full exhaust, they will cap the straight pipes using bolt-on copper plates to block the ports, forcing the gases through the mufflers. The process of adding or removing the plate is more effort than hitting the toggle switch in Kevin's roadster, but the overall design is simpler, as you can see in the following photos. And whether you prefer the roar of open headers or the guttural purr through the mufflers and tailpipes, the end results are impressive.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
This fabricated manifold and the one on the other side were built by Rick Cresse at Tri-C, and are key components of Steve's "convertible" exhaust system. The manifolds bolt to the Hemi using the stock cylinder head fastener holes. To run the system through the mufflers, a copper plate covers the ports, forcing the gases through the 3-inch primary tube welded in place at the bottom of the manifold.For cruising around on public streets, the headers are capped at the manifold with a removable 0.065-inch copper plate that bolts between the manifold and the header flange, and it also acts as a gasket.A pair of stainless steel header flanges was built for the system by Specialty Products Design (SPD) to mount the header pipes to the custom manifold.The headers are 2-1/4-inch-diameter stainless steel tubing, built by Rick from straight pipe and mandrel bends from SPD. The company offers U-bends, J-bends, zoomies, 90-degree, 45-degree, and other popular bends in diameters up to 5 inches, and in stainless and mild steel in various wall thicknesses.With the welded pipes and flanges bolted in place, Rick laid the ends on a length of square tubing and clamped them to a piece of angle bar to hold them even, before welding 1x2-inch stainless steel tabs between each pipe to support them. The tabs are easy to see from underneath but hardly noticeable from above. All four pipes and the flange are now easily removable as a single piece.

"My mother-in-law wanted a conventional announcement-type and this was perfect. We would have preferred that this was not a post-card style, so we were able to work with the design team to remove the mailing portion on the back so that we could place these in envelopes. They came out beautifully! Actually, the cards themselves, the customer service and the ease of ordering all exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this card type and Wedding Paper Divas themselves."
"These cards came out BEAUTIFUL! - I went with the pearl white shimmer and the paper has such a great texture, also nice and thick. - I also customized this and the Divas helped me with anything I needed. The proof was great and made sure that the writing was visible over the photograph. - I've talked to their live chat several times, they are very helpful. - I also price checked like crazy before ordering, and I felt they beat everyone with the price and quality. I will be using these guys again!"
"I received my elopement announcements yesterday in the mail. Just beautiful...awesome quality. Service was speedy and perfect! Thank you!"
"These wedding announcements were so classically elegant that I was proud to send them to family and friends. The paper and print quality were very impressive. I ended up ordering more to send out to still more people - they were that nice. My daughter, whose wedding they announced, said they were "beautiful and perfect". I had help from a designer at Wedding Paper Divas to have some additional photos and information added to the back of each card and to have the photo on the front faded to dark so that the white words "just married" stood out - they did a fabulous job. I would not hesitate to use them again."
"Loved this cute little post card for a simple announcement, liked the design, happy with our order as is. Good paper quality, colors are true to online example. Great product, will be ordering invites."

Boylan was promoted to interim head coach on Jan. 8 after Scott Skiles and the
Bucks mutually decided to part ways.
"At this time we feel it's in the best interest of the organization to seek a
new coach to lead our team," Bucks general manager John Hammond said. "We
appreciate Jim's efforts not only in his time as head coach, but in his entire
tenure as a coach in Milwaukee. On behalf of the Bucks organization, I thank
Jim for his five years here and his many contributions on and off the court.

CHARDON -- It's been an emotionally difficult week for some teenagers and residents in Chardon.
The community is in the midst of healing from the February school shootings that left three students dead.
And the outburst of deadly violence in a Colorado movie theater is adding to painful memories.
It began with Tuesday's murder/suicide at a Chardon car repair shop involving a divorcing couple.
"The sirens, the helicoptors, were the sounds they heard on February 27th...It just sends chills down your spine," said Kimm Leininger, of the Chardon Healing Fund.
"I know two our kids were traumatized," said Dr. Bob Faehnle, Leadership Geauga and a former Chardon High School principal.
And the Colorado shootings activate memories that are never very far away.
"There's many things going on here...This is just more fuel on the fire," Faehnle said.
Fanley and Leininger both think many in Chardon can relate to what's happening in Colorado.
"These things don't happen in a vacuum...particularly when it happened to you," Faehnle said.
Leininger said, "Our hearts go out to that community...Once the media goes away from there, just as it left Chardon, it does not mean things are better or back to normal. There's a new normal. I'm not sure we've figured out what that is."
Leininger said the community is bringing in experts to help craft long-range plans deal with ongoing emotional issues.
Chardon schools reopen August 23, just four days before what will be the 6-month memorial of the shootings.
Mental health professionals remind us that incidents like the Colorado shootings trigger flashbacks for those suffering post-traumatic stress.
Ravenwood, a private mental health facility in Chardon, is treating up to 40 people for issues directly stemming from the February shootings.
And it's treating hundreds more with related problems.

Beware lawn care services that won't let you go
Don't Waste Your Money
Every summer, many homeowners give up on trying to grow a lawn, and decide to hire a professional.
But one homeowner almost had his credit ruined because of a very common misunderstanding with a lawn service.
Thought He Was Done
Mark Schmidt decided to do all his own lawn care this year, from mowing to fertilizer.
But, unfortunately, a lawn service company decided to do it too, and that led to a serious problem.
"I came home from work one day," Schmidt said, "and there's a little yellow flag in my lawn saying they had applied fertilizer. They put a bill in my doorknob, and I didn't authorize any of it."
How did it happen?
Schmidt says he hired a lawn care service last year, but months later, his lawn had just as many weeds as before. So he made the decision not to renew.
"I was done," he said. " They sent a couple of mailings over the winter and I ignored it, thinking they were advertisements."
It turns out, though, they were not ads, but cards stating his service would be continuing this spring.
His lawn service, like many others, has an "auto-renew" clause in its contract: Unless you write to cancel, you are renewed for another year.
So they gave Schmidt a spring treatment, then threatened to send him to collections for not paying the $60.
"I feel like it's when I was college in the 90's, with one of those CD clubs where they just keep sending them and sending a bill."
So we called the lawn company, which agreed to drop its billing.
Lesson to All Homeowners
Schmidt says he's learned a lesson: ask whenever hiring a recurring service what the terms are, and how to cancel.
With any service, always ask when you can get out of your contract, and find out if it renews automatically.
That way you don't suddenly find yourself turned over to collections, and you don't waste your money.

Increased Police Presence-Hwy 75 South in Sioux County
(ORANGE CITY) -- The last of four saturation projects in Sioux County starts tomorrow at
noon on highway 75 south. During the last phase, that took place near Rock Valley, 84
citations were written and 163 warnings were given over a two day period. 77 of those
warnings were repair memos. According to Chief Deputy Jason Bergsma, the Sioux County
Sheriffs office wasn't happy about the level of collisions and death on their roadways
so they came up with the saturation projects as an effort to keep people safe.
The patrol project is being conducted in association with the Iowa State Patrol and the
states Department of Motor Vehicle Enforcement. Again the last phase of the Sioux County
summer highway saturation project is tomorrow, Friday August 26th from 12 noon through

|Ranchers learn about drought impacts at field day
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Over 60 ranchers and livestock managers from Colorado and Nebraska attended the Ranchers Field Day near Wray Tuesday, June 11. Pat Reece, owner of Prairie & Montane Enterprises and University of Nebraska-Lincoln professor emeritus led the field day.
The group looked at sand pastures in the morning and loamy rangeland in the afternoon. Discussions focused on drought effects on rangeland vegetation and how grazing management decisions can minimize or exacerbate those effects.
Severe drought stress in 2012 and this year has measurably reduced the carrying capacity of rangeland in this region. Density, weight and height of needle-and-thread tillers are much lower compared to healthy predrought plants. Prairie sandreed, a warm-season tallgrass on sandhills rangeland, was also shorter and often less abundant.
A striking feature on sand and loamy pastures was the widespread death of blue grama. Areas with gray sod and only an occasional green tiller indicate that most of the blue grama plants have died. Plants will not grow from crowns or roots under the gray blue-grama sod.
Grazing plans should always be designed to minimize the amount of bare ground in pastures. It is especially critical during drought years because of the need to reduce soil temperature extremes and to optimize infiltration. Ground cover includes living and dead plants and litter, Reece explained. Surface soil temperatures can easily exceed 120 degrees on hot days like ranchers saw last summer and in recent days.
"Imagine what that does to rangeland plants," said Reece.
Bone-dry soil pits and the common occurrence of rolled grass leaves correspond to 50 percent cumulative precipitation deficits in this region. Once the ground gets this dry, water from the next rainfall will be tightly held by the soil particles, reducing its availability to plants.
Pat Reece discusses the importance of looking at the ground to
After lunch, the group went through the Cumulative Forage Reduction Index Reece and others have developed. This worksheet tracks current precipitation against the long-term average. The resulting deficit, or surplus, is multiplied by the expected plant growth in that month.
One can then see what forage shortage or surplus to expect in the months ahead based on current precipitation. It takes the mystery out of knowing how much grass to expect in the coming months, so stocking decisions can be made before running out of grass.
Contrary to popular belief, plants do not have the ability for "compensatory gain" like animals. Every plant has a unique set of environmental conditions for rapid plant growth. Once those are past, the plant cannot grow to anything near its full potential.
In the afternoon, the fact that 45 people endured the over-100-degree heat and a blast-furnace wind to look at the hard ground site is a testament to the value of the information shared that day.
The take-home message of the day was, "Do not combine overgrazing with drought stress on rangelands," Leave adequate standing herbage" and "Contact a local NRCS range specialist to get help evaluating rangeland and determining a moderate stocking rate."

recent study conducted by sociologists at The University of Texas at
The emotional impact may reside as much or more in the perceived threat of the neighborhood than personally having experienced victimization such as being robbed, burglarized or attacked. Residents who have not experienced personal victimization may find their neighborhood just as troubling. While personal victimization accounts for 10 percent of the negative associations, mistrust and a sense of powerlessness account for most.
Catherine Ross and John Mirowsky, professors of sociology at The University of Texas at Austin's Population Research Center, have published their findings in the March 2009 issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior, a peer-reviewed publication of the American Sociological Association.
"A neighborhood perceived as unsafe creates emotional distress in large part because it evokes mistrust of others," said Ross. "It can create a sense of powerlessness to control one's own life, which in turn leads to high levels of anxiety, anger and depression."
One unexpected finding was that this environment could also tighten social networks. People are less trusting in general, but nevertheless feel more strongly that they have others they can rely on when in need. However, the research revealed that even a stronger support network gives little relief from the neighborhood's distressing implications.
The article, "Neighborhood Disorder, Subjective Alienation and Distress," is available to members of the media. Contact Jackie Cooper, media relations officer at the American Sociological Association, at email@example.com or (202) 247-9871, to request the article or author interviews.

Any one use a bow hook ??
Any one use a bow hook ??
I've tried the sling and strapping it on my pack, but prefer to have it in hand.
Thanks for the input guys I am sticking with the sling. My new bow seems to fit better on my pack if I do need to strap it on in case I need to climb or something. One thing I do differently is my sling is attached to my pack with quick release buckles rather than having a strap cutting into my neck. I have done this with everything binos, grunt tube etc and I really like it. I carry it up as high as possible on my side and it seems to work well.
strapped to my Eberlestock on my way in and in my hand while hunting.
I tied in a Crooked Horn Bow hook into the left hip pad of my Eberlestock Blue Widow. I use this when I stop to glass or need hands free while standing. The bow hangs from the string. This little piece is priceless to me. My Matthews never gets strapped into the pack unless all tags are filled. I do love my Mathews two piece quiver in how the arrow holder rubber part really grips my hip and rides nicely if I'm holding the bow by the roller guard. I've gotten so comfortable with this that I can't part with the bow. It's a Legacy I purchased new the year it came out. I think it was 2002.
Another for the Primos sling. I have the original model which I like better than the newer bulkier one with all the unnecessary straps. It comes off in about a second when things are happening fast. The best part about using the sling is that you can glass easily without setting your bow down or holding it between your legs.

Come Drive With Us -- 2006 Street Rodder Road TourWritten by Brian Brennan on March 10, 2006 Come Drive With Us
The time has come to put the finishing touches on your new ride, ready your old ride, or hook up with a buddy as the driving season is about to begin in earnest. The first leg of what proves to be the most fun you can have sittin' on your butt is about to begin. The 2006 PPG / STREET RODDER Road Tour's six legs of driving across America begins with Allstate Insurance Corporation presenting the 16th annual Cruisin' Ocean City event in Ocean City, Maryland, on May 19-21, and ends with the 23rd annual National Street Rod Association Mid-America Nationals in Springfield, Missouri, on May 26-28. Oh, you will not be alone, as Road Tour chauffeur Jerry Dixey will be setting the pace with this year's GM Performance Parts Ram Jet 350-powered '34 Chevy coupe from Outlaw resting on a Roadster Shop chassis with Heidt's independent suspension, all kept rolling by a set of Wheel Vintiques wheels. Let's say you get tired of looking at or speaking to chauffeur Dixey (that's understandable), there will be a handful of rodding celebs (at the time of printing), such as Johnny Freund from Hunter's Custom Automotive, George Poteet (every rodder wants to be adopted by George and/or at the very least gather up his cast-off vintage tin), and several others to be added later on, including a member of the STREET RODDER staff (want your car in a magazine?).
Our Road Tour drive will begin with one of the East Coast's largest automotive events. The 16th annual Cruisin' Ocean City 2006 presented by Allstate will be the largest and most successful in the citywide event's history, with 6,000 street rods, custom rods, street machines, and other specialty cars on display. Allstate will play host for the event's major activities, which include the daily Parade of Cruisin' along the Ocean City Beachside Boardwalk, the Saturday night concert held at the Ocean City Convention Center, and the closing ceremonies at Ocean City's Beachside Inlet on Sunday, May 21. The event will feature famous pop celebrities from the automotive and entertainment world. Previous Cruisin' Ocean City special guests included designers Darryl Starbird and Norm Grabowski; actors Candy Clark and Bo Hopkins; and musical groups The Beach Boys, The Drifters, Ray Peterson, The Impressions, and Frankie Ford.
After Sunday's awards ceremony, the first leg of the Road Tour drive, sponsored by Fatman Fabrications, is scheduled for a 140-mile afternoon cruise that heads south along Route 13 for our overnight stay at Virginia Beach. The afternoon buzz will take us across and through the 21-mile-long Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. Our Sunday evening stop will bring us to Flatlanders Hot Rods in Norfolk, Virginia, where we will enjoy an evening cruise around Virginia Beach led by Chief Flatlander Alan Thornton.
Monday morning, the Road Tour drive will head west, covering 350 miles across Route 58 to Interstate 85 and then south just in time for dinner sponsored by Fatman Fabrications. (Remember, you are traveling with the staff from SRM; of course there will be ample food stops!) Brent Vandervort and the staff of Fatman will be our hosts in the Charlotte suburb of Mount Hill, North Carolina. We will visit the North Carolina towns of Raleigh, Durham, High Point, and Concord in NASCAR country. Lowes Motor Speedway in Concord has invited us to stop for a special tour at the facility.
Tuesday we will travel along one of the most scenic drives to be found anywhere, and that's along Interstate 26, which will take us through the Smoky Mountains. Then Interstate 40 will take us through the towns of Asheville and Knoxville. Our destination is Nashville, Tennessee, where Johnny and Linda Freund will be our evening hosts at Hunter's Automotive Custom.
Wednesday the pace picks up, but how bad can it be? You will be traveling in your street rod along with other rodders all aiming at having a good time! Our first stop that day will be at the Advanced Plating facility in Nashville, Tennessee, with our own tour guide Steve Tracey of Advanced. Afterward, it's a short drive across town to visit the Gibson Guitar facility.
After lunch, it's back into our rods and time to head west across Interstate 40 toward Jackson, Tennessee, and then south to our evening stop in Holly Springs, Mississippi, about 30 miles south of Memphis. George Poteet will go from fellow driving companion to our host for the evening, which includes dinner and a tour of his collection of street rods. Yep, the day's drive will be well worth it.
Thursday morning will have us setting out on a 250-mile trip to Springfield, Missouri, through the Ozark Mountain area of Arkansas and to our weekend destination--the National Street Rod Association's Mid-America Nationals. This NSRA event has grown to include 2,100-plus street rods in a great Memorial Day weekend party.
If you want more information, a way to register, or just to get some questions answered, call the Road Tour Hotline at (800) 664-1362, or visit www.streetrodderweb.com and get the latest scoop. If you have some vacation time, are socially unemployable, or whatever your good fortune, this is going to prove to be a great 10 days and 1,372 miles of shear rodding ecstasy.

I have recently tried to install your product and while everything seemed to be going well, I had some issues when it came to starting the services.
I should note my install is the following:
Fedora Core 3
Web Server Install w/Defaults
Done under VMware5
Alloted 512MB of ram
Allocated 8GB hdd space
Host Box(XP):
Pentium 4 3.4GHz HT
I wanted to test it locally before opening to the public so I did this:
domain: dijital.local
mailbox domain: zimbra.dijital.local
All of the services seem to install and start fine, but when I check the status of the zimbra services the Mailbox service has not started.
I also tried to get into the web management via IP:
https://172.16.1.210:7071/zimbraAdmin and I get page not found, but I can ping it so I know it's not a routing issue, any suggestions?

Alright, I just finished 24. When I went in and even through about 4 seasons I thought it would really run out of steam and I would just want to finish it rather than enjoy it. That never really happened which is odd because most series lose me because they just get strung out. With this one, I can't wait to see the movie. Prison Break is another one of my favorites but I have no interest in seeing anymore which is partially due to the fact they sort of ended it with that final piece but even before I was fine never seeing more. Lost was the same. I'm sure I will want more Breaking Bad and Dexter when the time comes. What are some other's TV shows or movies they wish were continuing or can't wait to see.

And its been several years without a Star Trek show on the air. Id like to see a new series, maybe jumping forward in time like next generation did.
I would love for more Prison Break, but sadly with the way they ended it (which was a good ending IMO), that's not possible. Easily my favorite TV show of all time.
I cannot handle time off from Breaking Bad. Watched up to the latest season on Netflix. No more in the queue and no new episodes on TV for a while.... ugh!

I don't spend the time mastering long range shooting, I can hit milk jugs @ 500 (which is long range to me), but I've never shot an animal that far with it. I just keep the wind right and try to keep my shots under 300 yrds. I don't think any of the above calibers or optics will dissapoint, more often than not, its the person behind the gun. There are some very good tips here, have fun! My only advise is don't get too caught up in shooting farter than you need to.

He was an absolute monster today.
Agreed. Go Jake!
I will miss him as well he brought a lot of energy and hustle to this team.
I'm really going to miss the heart and energy he put out there every night.
He had a great year overall. There was a down period there in late January but he closed the season like a champ. Not just today, the last several games.
Helluva player.
Glad he decided to be a Cyclone. It was a pleasure watching him this season.
Go Cyclones!!
**** Iowa!!
can't believe his previous coach didn't want him.
The best thing Ricardo Patton did for ISU was run Jake Anderson out of DeKalb.
Thanks for the wonderful season Jake! You were awesome and here's to hoping you find your way into the NBA!
Keepers of the Faith -- The Unknown
Great player, gotta love that work ethic!!
I hope he comes back as a graduate assistant sometime - I know he started his graduate degree here this year. He seemed like a leader on this year's team and a very positive influence. Agreed that it is hard to imagine Patton running him off a Northern Illinois team (that isn't even good).
have you ever got caught outside In a strong rainfall? Yes or NO. If it"s yes, then you might half felt the pane of hard(tought) rain on you head. If it hurt"s then it"s tough. Yes or no. Okay I'm right and you know it.
So alothough you attempt"ed to say you didn"t understnad, now you do. Fair enough?
How do you run off a guy like Jake?
The bridges must have been burnt bigtime.
I don't know what Patton was thinking.
Jake was a real joy to watch. I miss him already.
Kansas Must Be Destroyed

Thanks Jake.

How fitting to have Jake leave us with a 33 point performance. He wanted it just like he took into everygame this year. He was laying it out every game every minute.

I've posted this a cpl times when Savages get talked about. I don't own one but do own a Rem 700. 200 shots thru the 700 to get it figured out and it still isn't close to a LRH. I hope yours shoots as well as this one. A Cabelas/Savage 6.5 will be my next rifle purchase.

"Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs. "
Restoring business aviation's image
A large and punishing backlash resulted after executives of the big-three automakers offered painfully naïve answers to questions about their corporate jet use on Nov. 18, 2008. The automakers were testifying before Congress, seeking billions in federal bailout funds, yet they didn't anticipate the response from the media and publicity-seeking politicians, who asked, essentially, "What on earth were you thinking, flying here in your private jets, asking for public money?"
The backlash reverberated so loudly with the public that two weeks later the automakers pledged to sell their jets, although they never said that they wouldn't fly privately anymore. [See
"Defending Your Jet," February/March 2009.-Ed.]
The timing of this PR fiasco couldn't have been worse: the recession had begun and the world's financial systems were on the brink of insolvency. Business aviation not only lost a huge amount of credibility with the public but also saw orders plummet, backlogs vanish and owners simply stop flying. The industry's situation was like that of a boxer, already reeling, getting one more thump on the noggin and getting knocked out, said Bill Boisture, chairman and CEO of aircraft manufacturer Hawker Beechcraft.
In addition to the automakers, the list of prominent companies that closed flight departments or vastly curtailed operations included such names as Sears, Wachovia, Brunswick, Citigroup, Bristol-Myers Squibb and Lucent. Financial firms clearly felt the brunt of pressure to sell aircraft.
The automakers' testimony "ignited a firestorm of political and media criticism," said Andrew Richmond, CEO of charter/management firm TWC Aviation in Van Nuys, Calif. "Literally overnight, it became inappropriate to fly on a private jet. For companies going through significant downsizing, the use of private jets looked even more insensitive. It created a 'let them eat cake' impression that executives were flying around the world in lavish private jets while their hard-working employees were losing their jobs."
The recession is officially over, however, and business aviation's image has arguably begun to improve. Owners are flying again, the pace of aircraft order cancellations has slowed and the perception of corporate jets as playthings of the rich appears to have moderated, thanks to efforts by industry groups and aviation businesses. Even a few politicians have jumped on business aviation's bandwagon, belatedly realizing that high-paying jobs in their districts are at stake.
The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) have led efforts to communicate the value of their industry. Their principal effort has been the No Plane, No Gain campaign, which the associations jointly launched last March "to educate the public on the importance of business aviation to our country and its communities, companies and citizens."
While it's difficult to assess the precise effect of efforts like No Plane, No Gain, NBAA president and CEO Ed Bolen said that the campaign is having a "significant and positive impact." Last year, he noted, key policy- and opinion-makers spouted "disparaging and discouraging remarks about business aviation, particularly here in Washington." And federal bailout legislation was proposed that would have mandated disposal of business jets. By contrast, Congress more recently passed a resolution honoring the contributions that general aviation (which includes business aviation) has made to the U.S. Both the House and Senate have formed general aviation caucuses, each with more than 25 percent of members having "decided they want to be publicly identified as interested in and concerned about general aviation," Bolen said. These results, he explained, "suggest that our message is not just getting through, it's moving people to action."
One CEO who has spoken up for bizav is Rockwell Collins president and CEO Clayton Jones, who turned the table during Congressional testimony last February when he was asked how he had traveled to Washington. Jones elicited kudos instead of condemnation from the politicians when he explained that he had come via business jet- which is why he was able in a single day to attend a morning meeting in Florida; testify in Washington; meet with financial firms in New York; and then return to company headquarters in Iowa. This was a graphic example of how explanation and education can help, Bolen said.
"I can tell you that the industry is rebounding," said Marty Guinoo, CEO of charter broker and jet card provider Sentient Jet. "People are using business aviation to help them be more effective."
TWC Aviation's Richmond agreed, saying, "The worst of this pummeling appears to be over. Companies again are looking to private aviation to overcome the many challenges that commercial airlines cannot solve. I think the private aviation industry will keep expanding this year as the economy continues its recovery."
Added Tom Bressan, CEO of charter operator New Vectors Aviation in Chino, Calif.: "The private aviation image will improve over time as the perfect storm dissipates and memories fade."
A more important issue, said Dan Drohan, CEO of Petaluma, Calif.-based charter/management firm Solairus Aviation, "is how to engage the people in the back of the jets to help improve our plight. We've held our cards too tight to the chest about how much help we need. These are very politically powerful, wealthy and experienced people who trust us and want to see us succeed, and we want to find a way to tap into that knowledge."
Corporate pilot Ron Freswick echoed those comments. "We need CEOs and people that are at the top to come out and say, 'Yeah, we have a company jet or two or three and we use them and they make money for us.' The big companies that have made it through this recession and are coming out of it whole-their people should be laughing at these government lapdogs who want to ride on our jets and criticize us. I think our business leaders have to quit being afraid of these government idiots and say, 'We have a corporate jet and we use it to make money.'"
Aircraft manufacturers need to speak out, too, said Hawker Beechcraft's Boisture. "We are talking about creating a more positive atmosphere for relatively technical and well-paying U.S. jobs," he noted. "The risk of being silent is significant. [Aircraft] owners are influential people. They may be large employers and integral parts of city, state and national economies. Encouraging them to be in touch with their elected officials about business aviation and to make sure everybody understands this is an important part of our national transport system is to everybody's benefit."
Boisture, however, doesn't blame business aviation's ills solely on the political and media bashing. "Far and away, the recession is the major issue here," he said. "And I think that the negative political environment added at the margin to the pressure of the recession. The timing was incredibly bad. It accelerated the deceleration of our business."
It's important for the industry to participate in efforts like No Plane, No Gain, he added, noting, "There's huge competition in Washington for attention, and I think we're stronger asking for it collectively as opposed to individually and becoming fragmented."
Robert Stangarone, Cessna Aircraft vice president of corporate communications, expressed similar sentiments during a recent speech at the British Business and General Aviation Association Annual Conference. "Everyone in our industry should consider themselves ambassadors," he said. "Business aircraft are used in so many valuable ways and have truly become essential to the global transportation system. We need to take every opportunity to spread that message."
Joe Lombardo, president of General Dynamics unit Gulfstream Aerospace, heads GAMA's communications committee and thus is intimately involved with the issues of public perception of business aviation. "Some customers canceled orders because of the backlash [from the automakers' congressional testimony], especially in the financial market," Lombardo said. But, he added, the economy "had more of an influence on the deterioration of backlogs and rates of production and number of sales being brought in."
The GAMA/NBAA team's No Plane, No Gain project included sourcing a study on the benefits of business aviation by Nexa Advisors and developing the Business Aircraft e-Valuation Toolkit, which helps companies "calculate and explain the value a business aircraft brings to a company's overall business objectives." These products, said Lombardo, "help us become more proactive about the message. When we're getting hit hard, especially by Congress and the White House, the best thing we can do is educate them about jobs and the economy."
Lombardo agrees that aircraft owners ought to speak up, too. "There are some who have and are willing," he said. (Information on these companies and owners can be found at noplanenogain.org.) "I do believe we've been able to change some opinions in Congress and even the White House."
Gulfstream isn't cutting expenditures on new programs. "Even in a pretty bad economy we didn't back off on research and development, and the new G650 and G250 are proof of that," Lombardo recently told employees. "It's too bad when something like this gets in the way, but we'll recover and be stronger as a result."

James Gandolfini Dies in Italy at Age 51 (UPDATES)
Tragic news for fans of The Sopranos, and for television in general. James Gandolfini, who played Tony Soprano in the acclaimed HBO series The Sopranos, has died in Italy of a possible heart attack. He was 51 years old.
The statements just keep rolling in as news spreads of the beloved actor's death.
New Jersey governor Chris Christie was sad to hear the news: "It's an awful shock. James Gandolfini was a fine actor, a Rutgers alum and a true Jersey guy," he said in an official statement. "I was a huge fan of his and the character he played so authentically, Tony Soprano. I have gotten to know Jimmy and many of the other actors in the Sopranos cast and I can say that each of them are an individual New Jersey treasure. Mary Pat and I express our deepest sympathies to Mr. Gandolfini's wife and children, and our prayers are with them at this terrible time."
Newark Mayor Cory Booker also had something to say. He tweeted, "My condolences to the family and all those who loved James Gandolfini - a true NJ Great and NJ Original. RIP."
Update: The Sopranos creator David Chase's statement is one of the most heart-wrenching ones so far (via E!): "He was a genius. Anyone who saw him even in the smallest of his performances knows that. He is one of the greatest actors of this or any time. A great deal of that genius resided in those sad eyes. I remember telling him many times, 'You don't get it. You're like Mozart." There would be silence at the other end of the phone. For [his wife] Deborah and [children] Michael and Liliana this is crushing. And it's bad for the rest of the world. He wasn't easy sometimes. But he was my partner, he was my brother in ways I can't explain and never will be able to explain."
Joe Gannascoli, who played Vito Spatafore, is worried about James's family, including his son who was just born last year. "Fifty-one and leaves a kid — he was newly married. His son is fatherless now ... It's way too young," he said. (via The AP)
James Gandolfini's managers Mark Armstrong and Nancy Sanders have released a statement, as well (via Buzzfeed): "It is with immense sorrow that we report our client James Gandolfini passed away today while on holiday in Rome, Italy. Our hearts are shattered and we will miss him deeply. He and his family were part of our family for many years, and we are all grieving."
HBO has released a statement on James's death (via WSJ): "We're all in shock and feeling immeasurable sadness at the loss of a beloved member of our family. He was special man, a great talent, but more importantly a gentle and loving person who treated everyone no matter their title or position with equal respect. He touched so many of us over the years with his humor, his warmth and his humility. Our hearts go out to his wife and children during this terrible time. He will be deeply missed by all of us."
James Gandolfini, who played Tony Soprano in the acclaimed HBO series The Sopranos, has died in Italy of a possible heart attack, according to Deadline. He was 51 years old.
Variety has received confirmation from HBO that the actor was on vacation in Italy at the time. Initially reported as a possible stroke, the cause of death was updated to a possible heart attack. CNN reports that he'd been attending a friend's wedding in Rome on his vacation.
In addition to his career-making role on The Sopranos, James had prominent roles in True Romance, Get Shorty, The Man Who Wasn't There, and many others. Most recently, he starred in The Incredible Burt Wonderstone as Doug Munny alongside Steve Carell, Steve Buscemi, Jim Carrey, and Olivia Wilde.
We love this quote from 2007 that the Washington Post's David Beard directed us to: "He's so humble a cat. I think it probably came from being a character actor all those years, and being very surprised — openly surprised — to be cast a lead," said Steve Van Zandt, who played Silvio Dante on the series "If he's not acting like a diva, nobody better act like a diva."
More on this news as it develops.
Our hearts go out to his family.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- After two men in black hooded sweatshirts on bicycles punched and/or robbed three women in two days last week in the Dupont Circle area, we joined forces with the DC Guardian Angels to get the word out and offer safety tips.
According to DC Guardian Angel John Ayala, it just takes a second for someone to snatch your phone. Ayala says people walking with their cell phones out in their hands are targets.
The recent violent attacks happened on the 1500 blocks of P and Q Streets. Ayala and the Angels have been handing out flyers there.
Tip 1: Put the phone away. "They see people on the phones, they say that person not paying attention, then it's going to be the approach, either they're gonna come up behind you or they're going to ask you a question, hey, do you know what time it is," said Ayala.
Ayala says it's not just enough to keep your phone in your pocket when you're walking. He says that goes for the Metro and the bus stop, too.
Tip 2: No headphones. "I always advise people if you're going to listen to music, I love music also, but have one earpiece hanging out," said Ayala.
Tip 3: Don't wear your pocketbook hanging at your side. Always try to have it in front of you.
Police say those two suspects are still out there, so if you're walking a half a block or ten, a little prevention can go a long way.

I have two email addresses that I use with it. One is a Yahoo account that seems to be working fine. One is a godaddy.com account that is receiving email but not sending. Every message comes back almost instantaneously "Invalid Addresses". Also, when I am composing a message from that account, the To: and Cc: buttons are disabled.
I have tried: rebooting, changing ports, and changing SSL encryption setting. I checked with godaddy, and everything seems to be fine on their end.
Any suggestions!? Thanks in advance,

Volunteer launches non-profit to help Sandy victims
O'Grady hosting May 16 fundraiser at Bridgeview Yacht Club
1 2 3 Next page >
In the months following Hurricane Sandy, West Fulton Street resident Doug O'Grady spent his days volunteering and helping his fellow Long Beach residents clean out and gut their homes.
O'Grady — a New York City Carpenters Local Union 45 trustee — put the word out on Facebook that he was assembling teams to help residents gut their flooded homes, and would organize hundreds of volunteers at the Waldbaum's parking lot each morning. O'Grady and his crew eventually helped clean out approximately 200 Sandy-damaged houses, a service that he provided at no expense to homeowners and as he dealt with damage to his own home. He also helped local organizations such as the Knights of Columbus and the MLK Center obtain supplies and donations.
"Since the storm, I kept going to people's houses, to the point where there were no more calls," he said. "I did so many homes and got so much work done — but some people just disappeared and never came back because either their homes are so wrecked and full of mold or they need money to rebuild."
Now, O'Grady said that he is looking to help people return home, and has launched a non-profit organization — The Mohawk Avenue Saint Foundation — that will provide grants to struggling Long Beach and Island Park residents as they rebuild. The foundation was launched in January, and O'Grady said that initial grants of up to $5,000 will be used to help offset the costs for plumbing, electric and HVAC units to help residents move back in.
"Those items are costly — but if I can get them grants, maybe they can make their house into more of a home," O'Grady said. "They're getting insurance, but it's coming up so short that the insurance companies drag them on."

How does one get a grant of 5k?
Is it income based? Is it for folks with flood insurance? Is it for folks without flood insurance? Is it only for primary homes? Does it cover things not covered by FEMA/NYS rising?
What towns does it cover. Do you need to max out on your FEMA $31,900 amount to qualify.
Do you need receipts, does work have to be done by licensed contractors?
Mucking out mold with volunteers is different than asking folks to give you cash and then give out that cash.
I love that he is doing this!!!! I would like to donate some money, but oddly I also need a grant. Either way I would like more info before I donate or try to get the grant. My boiler/oil tank was oddly not covered at all by FEMA. I appealed but since I already max out my FEMA award I was denied. Does that mean I can get 5k automatically?

I've changed the limits on zimbraFileUploadMaxSize and zimbraMtaMaxMessageSize to allow files up to 500MB. When on the local network with our Zimbra box, I can easily upload files with no problems. 400MB ISOs are stored just fine. However, when trying to upload a larger file from an offsite location, odd errors occur. The upload speed at the remote site is roughly 512k. When trying to upload a 200MB file, Zimbra churns and churns during the upload process. When complete, there is no notification and the file never shows up in the briefcase. Smaller ~10-50MB files have no problems.
I can verify that the entire file transfer completed successfully by checking the traffic usage on our edge firewall/router. I've even tried logging in and out, clearing the local browser cache, etc with no avail.
Is there some sort of timeout mechanism for the transfer? When transferring a 200MB file over 512k DSL, it can take a bit of time for the transfer to complete. Maybe a socket is closing prematurely within Zimbra?
We're running Zimbra OpenSource 5.0.4_GA_2101.RHEL5 on 32bit x86 CentOS5.
Where would you start to troubleshoot such a problem?
All ideas welcome. Thank you!

L-Glutamine 500 mg 100 Capsules from Twinlab® may help protein synthesis and may be used in rapid cell division. Glutamine is stored in the skeletal muscles and is a free form amino acid that may be utilized for vital bodily functions.
Many people believe that Glutamine as present in this Twinlab® supplement may act as an important source of energy in the mitochondria and may be a precursor to the brain neurotransmitter' glutamate. It is glutamate that is responsible for protein synthesis and nucleotide biosynthesis. It is said that glutamate may help immune cell functions and may play a role in defending the body against diseases.
Some health experts believe that heavy exercising may result in lower glutamine levels. This could pose a risk to the body's immune health. This is why certain athletes are advised doses of Glutamine supplements. With Twinlab® Glutamine supplements you may experience a rapid increase in glutamine stores in muscles and a better rise of glutamine levels in the cells.
Some other studies believe that Glutamine may support the development of enterocytes' a cell type that lines the cells of the small intestine. This may help conditions such as certain ulcers' and diarrhea.
