Dance Chief (inside) rallies for his second straight victory at the meeting
AUBURN, Wash. (Aug. 2, 2012) – Dance Chief rallied four-wide to the lead and held off Dynamalt late for a head victory Thursday in the featured Fiji Rush Party Purse for 3-year-olds and up at Emerald Downs.
Ridden by apprentice Eliska Kubinova, Dance Chief ran 1-1/16 miles in 1:43.59 and paid $4.60, $2.80 and $2.20. Tim McCanna is the trainer for owners Hern/LePley Racing.
It was the second straight victory for Dance Chief, a 7-year-old Kentucky-bred gelding, and the second win of the night for the trainer and owner, who combined with Win Photos Will Do ($4.40) to win the fifth race.
Dynamalt, ridden by Juan Gutierrez, rallied from last to make the outcome close, but came up a head short at the wire. Dynamalt paid $2.40 and $2.40.
Sarganis, ridden by Gallyn Mitchell, finished third and paid $2.80. I Am Thor and Tobiah's Journey completed the order of finish; Doctor Pav and Koala Beach were scratched earlier in the day.
Dance Chief is two-for-two at Emerald Downs, and nine-for-46 lifetime with earnings of $233,440. The gelding's other wins were in Northern California, Bay Meadows and Pleasanton.
In both victories at Emerald Downs, Dance Chief prevailed by a head with Kubinova riding.
McCanna's two wins pulled him to within two wins, 32-30, of Frank Lucarelli's top spot in the trainers' standings.
NOTES: Kubinova swept the late double with Dance Chief and seventh race winner Mile Easy ($2.60) and boosted her season total to 54 wins in 53 days. She needs 18 wins in the final 28 days to set a single-season track record for wins by an apprentice rider…William Antongeorgi also rode two winners…Leslie Mawing remains three wins shy of 2,000 after his lone mount Thursday, Koala Beach, was scratched from the feature race. Mawing is named on six horses Friday and five of them are 5-to-1 on the morning line. The other is Seattle Game, the 1-to-1 morning line favorite in the fourth race. Mawing has had at least one win on the last 19 cards he has ridden at Emerald Downs, but remains behind Juan Gutierrez 67-63 in the jockeys' race…Live racing continues Friday with first post 6:15 p.m.

Pretty much the same routine 5 to 6 days a week. Being retired allows me to be very flexible. Go to the gym 4 to 5 days a week. Start with stretching & flexibility work, then eliptical stairmaster and finish with 30 to 45 mins on the treadmill set on hill mode at 3.5 to 4 mph. Workouts are about 1.25 to 1.5 hrs long. Now that the weather has warmed up, its irrigation season. I raise a little hay, so I spend lots of time outside. I usually get in a 3 to 4 mile walk before dinner....then I relax for the rest of the day.
I usually have a granola bar & low fat yogurt for breakfast, protein drink at lunch and then a normal dinner (lots of chicken, pasta, rice, veggies & salads, only eat beef a couple of time a week). I have kept off the 50# I lost 2 years ago, still working on 10 to 20 more. Harder to lose weight as you get older...70 now!
As soon as the high country gets warmed up and most of the snow melts, I'll start doing some hiking every week. I live at 7,000' and the mts where I hike are only a 1/2 hour away, so its pretty easy to get there.

Wilshire ShakerWritten by on December 5, 2003 Contributors: Randy Lorentzen, Mike Morgan Match Bash Nova Buildup: It's Done! Let's Hit the Road
There are so many branches in the family tree of hot-rod building it's become a mind-boggling paradise. We've got Pro Street, Pro Touring, lead sleds, sport compacts, street rods, fat fenders, kustoms with a "K," low riders, rat rods, the Trans Am look, neo-NASCAR, the Gasser look, and tons of others. Each style has its own strict codes and highly specific set of aesthetics.
What about altered-wheelbase Funny Cars? Incredibly popular between 1964 and 1967, they represent the historic first pairing of extensively lightened Detroit body shells with insane levels of horsepower.
For a scant three race seasons, the world watched in awe as these beasts broke free of the NHRA's shackles. Rapidly they evolved from rule book-abiding Super Stockers and Factory Experimentals into brutal (and often deadly) exhibition match racers that barnstormed the nation in semi-sanctioned run-what-ya-brung acceleration parties that packed grandstands from coast to coast.
This doorslammer carnival ground to a halt within 12 months of Lincoln Mercury's 1966 bombshell introduction of a small fleet of fiberglass-bodied, tube-framed Funny Cars. Nearly half as heavy as many production-based steel-bodied match racers, the Comet Cyclones ushered in the era of the flip-top Funny Car and forced the obsolescence of altered-wheelbase machinery in all of the top classes.
Though the flopper revolution was a logical progression, it also signaled the end of the day when a few guys could pool their resources, buy a wrecked Mustang, Chevelle, Barracuda, or GTO, move the wheels around for better weight distribution, then stuff it full of injected or blown 'Cammer, Rat, Hemi, or Super Duty power and hit the match race circuit. Funny Car racing suddenly got real expensive.
Like the brave test pilots who risked life and limb transitioning civil and military aviation from piston engines and propellers to turbines and jets after WWII, the first- generation doorslammer match racers must also be remembered for taking Super Stockers to the next level. We're talking about guys like Phil Bonner, Doug Thorley, Dave Strickler, Gas Rhonda, Maynard Rupp, Bobby Harrop, and hundreds of others.
Let's pay tribute and continue the legacy by building more of these crazy altered-wheelbase monsters. Call the patent office; we're adding the name Match Bash to the hot rodding dictionary. Match Bash describes a car built to replicate those classic altered-wheelbase door cars. Match Bash isn't about running 8.5s at 160. Rather, it's about streetable machinery that captures the mood, looks, and a good chunk of the power. Match Bash is a time warp back to Cecil County, Detroit Dragway, Beeline, and Lions. With our Wilshire Shaker altered-wheelbase '63 Nova Match Basher, we fire the first volley. HR
Driving Impressions
"You're building your coffin" was the typical response we got from the uninformed. But instead of a wheelstanding, guardrail-bending deathtrap, the Wilshire Shaker turned out to be a very stable ride [grain of salt: this is per the guy who's never owned a radial tire--ed.]. Of course a lot of it has to do with the fact that we're not trying to push 800-plus horsepower through the chassis like Dickie Harrell and the boys did.
The Shaker's got a more manageable 528 flywheel horsepower that's delivered to the B&M flexplate by a Hilborn/Electromotive-injected GMPP ZZ502/502 crate motor. After the Art Carr 2,200-rpm torque converter, full-manual, pushbutton 727 TorqueFlite and Currie Enterprises 3.50:1 Ford 9-inch and Detroit Locker digest it, 346 hp and 486 lb-ft of torque arrive at the M/T 10.00-15 nostalgia drag slicks. The end result is high 11-second acceleration on 91-octane unleaded pump gas and just under 10 mpg.
And while M/T's Brian Downard warned us that the hard-compound nostalgia slicks are more about looks than traction, they barely spin on cold pavement and deliver slip-free launches on a properly prepared dragstrip surface. Such is the benefit of the 46/54 front/rear static weight distribution afforded by the altered wheelbase (front axle moved ahead 4 inches, rear axle moved ahead 10 inches from stock). The curb weight with a full tank of gas (less driver) is 3,038 pounds (1,392 front/1,646 rear).
On the freeway, the small but extremely efficient 17-inch-wide, 3-inch-thick Griffin aluminum radiator restricts coolant temperature to 190 at 75 mph. The Electromotive Tec III engine management system is programmed to activate the 16-inch SPAL electric fan at 185 degrees so the car can sit in bumper-to-bumper traffic without losing its cool. The only marginal cooling problem we experience comes when ambient air temperature exceeds 90 degrees. Then it is wise to avoid the fast lane, as coolant temperature climbs to 205 degrees during steady-state cruising. But hit a traffic jam and the SPAL kicks on like an F-18 fighter jet and drops temps 20 degrees within minutes.
Handling is actually pretty decent considering the 62.5-inch overall vehicle height (55 inches stock) and raised center of gravity. We haven't subjected the car to the slalom course and don't plan to. It feels and drives like a brand-new '63 Chevy pickup truck. The reduced 104-inch wheelbase (110 is stock) enhances slow-speed maneuverability and complements the Flaming River fast-ratio steering box. The Wilwood heavy-duty front disc brakes and Currie 11x3 rear drums work well too. After reaching 90 mph during initial shakedown runs at the Irwindale eighth-mile 'strip, we were able to slow down to 10 mph within 400 feet of the finish line to make the first exit road without much drama.
The best thing about a car like the Wilshire Shaker is the constant double-takes and good vibrations it generates at car shows. You just don't see other cars like it, and response is overwhelmingly positive--especially from older folks who remember when the Match Bash cars ruled the drag racing kingdom.

With warmer days here, Xcel Energy reminds customers to call 8-1-1 before digging for landscaping projects around the house or on their property to have underground utility lines located.The service is free, and calling 811 is required by law.The exclusive three-digit number, which works across the country, will connect immediately to the Utility Notification Center of Colorado, also known as Colorado 811.Xcel Energy will send a utility locator to locate and mark company-owned utilities with colored flags, paint or stakes. Red indicates electric power lines and yellow indicates natural gas lines.Call at least three business days before digging to allow all utilities time to locate their lines. Once digging begins, respect the marks and dig with extreme care. Customers must arrange with a private locate company to mark lines not owned by a utility, such as a line to heat a pool or light a garage. Digging without locates can cause costly property damage, interrupt services, cause injury and even death from striking underground utility lines.

Year One Bristol 20th Anniversary Drag Race ShowWritten by on June 28, 2002 Year One Throws a Party in Tennessee
Readers know Year One as a company that provides top-notch goodies for many of our favorite cars. But, many don't realize they don't just provide the parts we can't find anywhere else, they also put on a huge car show/drag race for all enthusiasts in Bristol, Tennessee, this year to celebrate their 20th anniversary.
We stopped by to see how things shaped up and were impressed by both the enthusiasm shared by participants and the overall quality of the cars brought out to play. This three-day event includes a huge car show, chassis-dyno tests, drag racing, and autocrossing, so there's plenty to do all weekend and it's really worth the trip.
We wanted to share a few glimpses from this event with those who weren't able to attend, but mark your calendars for late October next year when this party will happen all over again! Thanks to the folks at Year One for making this event possible, and hopefully it will continue to grow into one of the "can't-miss" events we all look forward to.

We feel the problem with most car shows is that there's not much for participants to do once you get there, pay the entry fee, and park. We didn't build these cars to sit around and look at them! Year One had plenty of activities for enthusiasts to enjoy, including valuable dragstrip time!Year One employees are enthusiasts too, as proven by the clean '69 Chevy pickup owned by Jimmy Kerlin. He's a sales guy from 9 to 5, but a hot rodder 24/7! The truck is powered by a TPI'd 350-inch small-block.If the dragstrip doesn't fulfill all you need for speed, how about the autocross course? Ed DeMarcellus has worked over the suspension on his '97 Vette and gave the goodies a solid thrashing at the Year One Bristol Bash.Is the enthusiasm surrounding Impala SS cars fading? We don't think so; in fact, with more ex-police Caprices being offered up cheap around the country, we can only see this market maintaining at least as much steam as it's had the last few years. Martin Mogavero of Ellicott City, MD, knows the score. His '96 has all the right stuff, including a turbocharged, intercooled LT1 with 385 horses at the rear wheels. Obviously, he's addressed suspension tweaks, too (with Hotchkis components), and those tires are 255/40R-18 and 285/40ZR-18 Pirelli P-Zeros, front and rear, respectively.Roanoke, VA, is home to Kent Carter and his Electron Blue '02 Z06 Vette. He stayed busy all weekend by running 13.0-second passes on the dragstrip and also running the autocross. That's participation! Now, if we could only get more events like this around the country, we'd all have as much fun with our g-Machines!Here's what we like to see: musclecars hitting the corners! This Chevelle looks great challenging the curves without losing its resto flavor. You don't have to cut a car like this up to enjoy it; just get the right bolt-ons in place and invest in some good tires. Troy Fakes of Raleigh, NC, had no reservations about pushing his clean silver '71.Talk about quick street machines--how about Dan Jensen's '70 Pontiac T-37 running 12.0! These cars aren't light, so there's got to be plenty of Pontiac torque motivating this monster. Pretty color, too.Okay, we're about to start a fan club for this girl. She's Louden, TN, resident Laura Holt, and beyond being 21 and a diehard V-8 fan, she also assembled her own '68 Nova with a built 350/automatic combo. It's good for easy 13.50s in the quarter-mile. As she says, "This is all my car, no boyfriends involved! I do it all myself." She also just got out of the Navy, so she's got VA benefits, too! The line forms to the right, guys.
It may seem like a GM event, but there were plenty of Mopar and Ford entries too. Andy Burleson's '74 Duster runs a 340/automatic all-motor combination and scooted to 12.89-second passes at 103 mph. Plenty quick for a street machine!We still love the drag racy looks of well-done Pro Street cars. Robert Nixon's '65 Chevelle fits the bill, with a Weiand-blown 350, old-school Cragar SS wheels, and 29x18.5x15-inch Mickey Thompson Sportsmans. Robert is a Bristol, TN, local.Some great historical cars showed up, too, including both past and present versions of Arnie "The Farmer" Beswick's Tameless Tiger '64 GTO. It seems Arnie is touring more now than he did in the '60s--he's racing everywhere!As we mentioned, a chassis dyno was on hand to settle bets. This Ford Lightning pickup (with Powerdyne centrifugal supercharger, Edelbrock aluminum heads, Crane cam, and Dynomax exhaust) cranked out 374 horses to the rear wheels and ran 13.18 on the track. Congrats to Keith Blackburn of Pikeville, KY, for bringing it out and pushing it so hard. That's plenty quick for a traction-challenged pickup!

Sears Layaway
Sears Layaway is a flexible no-interest payment plan that allows you to pay for your purchase over a period of a few weeks or up to a few months by breaking down your total into several equal payments. Your merchandise is put on hold until the balance is paid, at which time you can either pick them up at a local store or have them shipped to your home. Sears Layaway is a great way to lock in today's prices, even when you're shopping on a budget.
Sears Layaway offers eight and twelve week layaway plans for both in-store and online purchases. For the online layaway option, just add the items to your cart and set up the layaway process during checkout. For the in-store layaway option, simply bring your items to the register and the cashier will initiate the layaway process for you. For the eight week plan, a $5 service fee and a $20 or 20% (whichever is greater) are required to get the layaway contract started. From there, your balance is broken down into four bi-weekly payments which can be made online or in-store at the register.
The twelve week plan is only available for in-store purchases of $400 or more and requires a $10 service fee and a $35 or 20% down payment (whichever is greater) to get the layaway contract started. On the twelve week plan, the balance is broken down into six bi-weekly payments, which can also be paid online or in-store.
Aside from their retail products like clothing, apparel and accessories, Sears also offers a wide range of other services with money-saving offers as well, such as Sears Outlet, Sears Automotive, Sears Portrait Studio and Sears Driving School.
Sears Outlet
Sears Outlet is sort of like the "Scratch and Dent" section where you can find deep discounts on discontinued products, returned merchandise, seasonal products and floor model appliances. Sears Outlet products are all covered by Sears Return Policy and usually a complete manufacturer's warranty as well. Even though the Outlet products are being offered at discounts of up to 60% off retail in some cases, you can save even more by shopping their Outlet's "Deal of The Day" promotion.
Sears Auto Service
Sears Auto Service is available at more than 700 locations across the US. You can schedule your auto service with Sears online any time for your convenience. Sears Auto Service offers oil change services, tire and wheel services and brake services along with select suspension and electrical services as well.
Prices for wheel alignment range between $85 and $165, depending on the tier of service you choose. The tiers offered by Sears are 6 months, 1 year and 3 years. Each tier comes with an unconditional guarantee ensures free and proper alignment during the purchased coverage period and includes road testing and inspection of all integral steering and suspension components.
The price of tires at Sears will vary greatly, depending on a number of factors. Size, brand and insurance coverage are just a few of the ways tire prices are determined. However, when buying tires online at Sears, be sure to check their "Current Offers" section in the Tires and Wheels department to find online specials and clearance pricing on select products.
A basic oil change at Sears costs about $30 for most vehicles and includes complimentary inspection of all your vehicle's fluid levels, such as wipers and power steering, in addition to inspection of other vehicle components like belts, wiper blades and hoses. A synthetic oil change at Sears costs about $60 for most vehicle and includes all the complimentary inspections as a basic oil change, in addition to inspection and inflation of your tires – if needed.
Sears Portrait Studio
Most Sears locations have a Portrait Studio on-site that takes professional portraits while you wait. You can pre-schedule your sitting online – which is recommended, but not required. Sears Portrait Studio specializes in all kinds of photography – from newborns to large groups – and offers a wide range of props and backgrounds to suit any occasion or style.
Sears Portrait Studio's prices vary, depending on the number of poses, subjects and pictures desired. However, you can always find great deals in their "Offers" section of the website. Sears Portrait Studio also has a number of ongoing promotions – like a free 8x10 print for birthdays and free birth announcements for newborns – so be sure to inquire about those when your book your sitting.
Sears Driving Schools
Sears Driving Schools have fifty in-store locations across the country. The offer adult and teen instructional driving classes as well as defensive driving classes for licensed drivers. The price of Sears Driving School varies, depending on the type of course you require. To find out a list of their current course offerings and fees, contact your nearest location or visit their website to find a Sears Driving School near you.
About Sears
Sears was founded in 1886 as a mail-order company that only sold watches, but by the time their first catalog was printed in 1888, the company had expanded to include a wide range of products – including farm equipment – that appealed to rural shoppers. By 1894, the Sears product line included everything from sewing machines to cars and their catalog had grown to more than 300 pages in length. By 1895, Sears was reporting annual sales of $800,000 – an unheard of amount of money at that time.
In 1925, Sears opened their first brick and mortar store on a sprawling 40 acre compound that would include a shipping warehouse, catalog printing plant, headquarters and office complex. Sears continued to expand well into the 1950s, at which time they focused efforts on entering the suburban markets and malls. In 1974, Sears claimed its place at the top of the retail ladder by completing the world famous Sears Tower, which at the time was hailed the tallest building in the world. The Sears Tower would serve at the company's consolidated headquarters for the next two decades.
Today, Sears has more than 1,300 branded and affiliated stores in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico, including 790 full-line stores and 50 specialty retail locations. Sears also owns K-Mart and Land's End brands as well.

Barrier Brewing coming back 'stronger than ever'
(Page 2 of 3)
While Barrier Brewing Company began its rebuilding process, support was offered from local breweries, bars and fans. Simon Thorpe, CEO of Brewery Ommegang in Cooperstown, N.Y., invited Klein and Frymark to use the Belgium-influenced operation's equipment and presented a collaboration to remain active with established accounts. The outcome, Barrier Relief, was brewed on Nov. 28-29 and combined the recipe for Barrier Brewing Company Mare Undarum, a Belgian-style IPA, with a yeast strain from Brewery Ommegang.
"Our Ommegang beer is a draft-only offering meant largely to help us maintain our draft lines while our brewery is off-line," said Frymark. "When we had to shut down our previous operation for 3 months earlier this year to build our new facility, we lost a lot of draft lines and market presence as our supplies dried up and our beer was no longer available. We want to do everything we can to avoid that problem again with this situation, as it took us a great deal of work to get back on our feet."
Barrier Brewing Company also participated in Sandy Relief Beer, a project by local breweries to help victims of Hurricane Sandy on Long Island. Eight breweries—Barrier Brewing Company, Blind Bat Brewery, Blue Point Brewing Company, Great South Bay Brewery, Greenport Harbor Brewing Company, Long Ireland Beer Company, Port Jeff Brewing Company and Spider Bite Beer Company—gathered at Blue Point Brewing Company on Dec. 4 and created Surge Protector IPA. The beer, scheduled for an early January release, will raise proceeds for Long Island Cares, Inc., a Hauppague-based food bank, and Barrier Brewing Company.
"We were overwhelmed by the support of everyone involved," said Frymark. "The storm impacted so many people on Long Island, so we're happy we can also help out. It's a great way to give back."
While Klein and Frymark hope to begin brewing in January, Barrier Brewing Company is now open for growlers, offering beer unscathed during Hurricane Sandy (the 35-barrel Submersion Series "spent a lot more time fermenting" and "will definitely help financially while recovery continues," said Klein). They also plan to continue brewing in Oceanside, despite its geographic vulnerability.

Happily Thomas and Friends are back! After all of the lead issues, it's nice to see that the company has regrouped and come out with something that will attract train fans! Push one of the special trains through the station and Sir Topham Hatt will great the trains. While we were originally concerned that this additional of technology would overtake the experience, it really enhances the play possibilities. We also LOVE that there is a volume setting since the out of the box setting is really loud. If you already have a lot of trains, you can also just bring home the Stop and Greet Station ($69.99) or the new Cranky the Crane ($69.99) and the new talking trains ($14.99 each). It's all really pricey but very innovative and special.
The company has signed a verification form complying with our safety requirements. We did not independently test this toy in a lab.

Running Beta3 on OSX Snow Leopard, connecting to Exchange, I have the following problems:
- When I accept appointments, they never show up on my calendar
- Although I have contacts in my contacts view, they do not auto complete when compose a message. For that matter, I cannot click on "To" or "CC" in order to select clients, nothing happens when I do.
Has anyone run into this? I'm not sure if any of this has something to do with the "Desktop Connector for Exchange" bug still being open, but previously (in 1.0) these features worked. Any suggestions?

(For Friday Flashbacks I feature favorite recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites, and this Crunchy Chopped Salad with Sugar Snap Peas, Jicama, Radishes, Tomatoes, and Green Garbanzo Beans has so many of the flavors I love in salads. This tasty salad is Vegan and also fits the bill for Phase One Fridays if you're looking for a tasty and healthy spring salad!)
It's a sign of spring when I start making big crunchy salads to eat for lunch. My lunch salads can include just about anything that's in the fridge or on the counter, and when I come up with a combination that's especially good I'll often make it again the next day and take pictures for the blog. I love crunchy ingredients in salad, so the crunch factor from sugar snap peas, radishes, and jicama gave this salad that extra something that made it a keeper for me. The tomatoes and green garbanzo beans gave the salad some other textures, and I used a barely-spicy cumin-lemon vinaigrette that was perfect with the other flavors.
jicama in salad, but turnip is a good substitute. This was cut into cubes.
(Recipe created by Kalyn for a lunch salad; makes 2 whole-meal salad servings or 4 side-dish salads.)
1 C diagonally sliced sugar snap peas
4-5 large radishes, trimmed, cut in half, then cut in half-moon slices
1 C jicama, cut in cubes (about 1/2 large jicama)
1 C cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 cup green garbanzo beans, thawed if frozen (other types of beans could be substituted.)
2-3 cups chopped romaine lettuce
Dressing Ingredients:
2 T fresh-squeezed lemon juice
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste (I used Vege-Sal)
3 T extra-virgin olive oil
If using frozen green garbanzo beans, thaw by running hot water on them for a few minutes, then let them drain while you prep other ingredients. (To substitute other canned beans, dump beans into a colander placed in the sink and rinse with cold water until no more foam appears, then let beans drain while you prep other ingredients.)
South Beach/Low-Carb Suggestions:
Nutritional Information?
I chose the South Beach Diet to manage my weight partly so I wouldn't have to count calories, carbs, points, or fat grams, but if you want nutritional information for a recipe, I recommend entering the recipe into Calorie Count, which will calculate it for you.

The dry rangelands of Northern Kenya are inhabited mainly by pastoralists—people who derive a living from raising livestock and continually move in search of water and pasture.

Golf Club of Estrella
The very first. The Hohokam first settled this area, creating impressive irrigation canals for agriculture within the shadows of the Sierra Estrella Mountains. They were followed by the Pima and Maricopa Native Americans.
First European contact. Father Eusebio Kino was the first known European to see the Sierra Estrella Mountain Range. He explored and mapped the area all the way down to the Mexican border.
The Butterfield Stagecoach Line passed right through this part of Arizona, providing mail and passenger service between Missouri and Southern California. This speedy line was the predecessor to American Express and Wells Fargo.
The iron horse arrived. Southern Pacific Railroad rolled through Arizona through the towns of Liberty and Buckeye. Now the west coast was only a day's journey away.
Pledge allegiance. The Territory of Arizona was the last territory of the lower 48 to become a state.
Cotton was king. In response to a growing demand for cotton, Goodyear executive Paul Litchfield established Goodyear Farms on 16,000 acres.
In the air. Luke Air Force Base was named after Lt. Frank Luke, Jr. and established as an advanced training field for the Army Air Corps. It remains the largest fighter-training base to this day.
Rising opportunities. World War II brought recovery and opportunity. Goodyear Aircraft Corp. began building blimps, employing 7,500 people.
A very good year. The town of Goodyear was incorporated. It was home to 220 houses, a grocery store, drug store, barbershop, and service station.
A rare opportunity. The property that would become the Estrella™ community was added as a Federal land preserve and made available for public purchase.
Twin lakes. North and South Lakes were created, offering 72 acres of aquatic fun with kayaking, canoeing, and sailing. Families flocked to the sand beaches for water play, sunsets and barbecues.
Home sweet home. First offering! The Estrella™ community Grand Opening was a three-day extravaganza with lakeside activities and a concert featuring the Phoenix Symphony.
Hit the links. The Golf Club of Estrella opened. Designed by Nicklaus Design, this 18-hole golf course offers challenging play for players of all skills. The Sonoran Desert and views of the Sierra Estrella Mountains make for an uplifting experience.
A national treasure. President Clinton declared 496,000 pristine acres of Sonoran wilderness a National Monument. The area is home to diverse and endangered species, forests of cactus, and numerous historical and archeological sites.
A new beginning. Nationally acclaimed master-planned community developer Newland Communities purchased Estrella and began selling homes. It will be several decades until build-out.
Community ties strengthen. Montecito, a new community of Estrella, opened with 1,500 friends in attendance for the festivities. Residents gained a new way to connect with a community website, www.LifeInEstrella.com.
CantaMia®, the first 55 -Plus community within Estrella, opened to much excitement. Mountain Ranch Marketplace brought Safeway, Chase Bank and other services to the community, giving residents the opportunity to shop close to home.
Along the base of the Sierra Estrella Mountains, the tribes of the Hohokam first settled these lands thousands of years ago. A sense of wonder later welcomed settlers who arrived with the Southern Pacific Railroad. Today, we continue to enjoy a rich, diverse life within view of these vibrant hills.

In its biggest drop in three weeks, the benchmark BSE Sensex today fell by nearly 246 points to slip below the 21,000-level hurt by losses in rate-sensitive shares ahead of the release of industrial production and retail inflation data that may influence the RBI policy next week.
The index, which lost 155 points in the previous 2 days, fell by 245.80 points, or 1.16 per cent, to end at 20,925.61 as auto, banking and capital goods stocks dropped. This was its sharpest fall since 406-point plunge on November 21.
Fears of soft October IIP data and sticky double-digit retail inflation for November triggered selling, analysts said. Of the 30-share Sensex, 26 constituents including Tata Motors (4.55 per cent), Oil & Natural Gas Corp (ONGC) (2.7 per cent) and ICICI Bank (2.36 per cent) fell.
"It is very likely that the RBI will raise the repo rate on December 18," said Raghu Kumar, co-founder, RKSV.
Profit-booking continued for the third day in a row as investors continued to churn portfolios after equity barometers hit record highs recently, brokers said.
Weak global markets after fresh jitters that a US budget deal would make it easier for the Federal Reserve to pare its USD 85-billion-a-month economic stimulus, also weighed.
The 50-share NSE Nifty dropped by 70.85 points, or 1.12 per cent, to close at 6,237.05. Also, SX40 index of MCX Stock Exchange ended 136.94 points down at 12,432.57.
Losses in three influential stocks -- ITC Ltd (1.29 per cent), Reliance Industries (RIL) (1.20 per cent) and Infosys Ltd (0.24 per cent) -- weighed on domestic market sentiment. However, midcap and smallcap shares did not bleed as much as bluechips.
Sectorally, the BSE Auto sector index suffered the most by losing 2.20 per cent, followed by BSE Banking index by 1.42 per cent, BSE Metal index lost 1.37 per cent and BSE Oil and Gas index by 1.30 per cent.
BSE Sensex marks biggest single-day fall in 3 weeks
(Reuters) BSE Sensex fell more than 1 percent on Thursday to mark a third consecutive day of declines since hitting a record high at the start of the week as Tata Motors share price slumped after saying its unit Jaguar Land Rover would increase capital spending.

Born: 02/08/1941
Birth Place: Omaha, Nebraska, USA
Throughout his career, Nolte openly admitted to lying to the press about details of his personal life, so no biography could be entirely accurate. However, it was generally agreed upon that Nick Nolte was born in Omaha, NE on Feb. 8, 1941. His 6'6" father came from a long line of hearty Germans and agricultural equipment dealers. Nolte's mother was a bit of a non-conformist who worked as a buyer for a department store and instilled apron-string independence from her two sons. Nolte attended first Benson and then Westside High School, when he was expelled from Benson for drinking during football practice. Nolte - the shortest of the clan at only 6'1" - was a solid player and football was his ... Continue Bio >>

Zagreb, Croatia (Sports Network) - Two-time champion Marion Cilic eased
into the quarterfinals, while former titlist Marcos Baghdatis was a second-
round upset victim Thursday at the Zagreb Indoors tennis event.
The top-seeded Croatian crowd favorite Cilic leveled Slovenian Grega Zemlja
6-2, 6-3.
The Zagreb resident, who titled here back-to-back in 2009 and 2010, will
face another Slovenian in Blaz Kavcic on Friday.
Kavcic ousted the sixth-seeded Cypriot Baghdatis 3-6, 7-6 (7-2), 6-4 at
Dom Sportova. The former Australian Open runner-up Baghdatis captured this
Zagreb tournament back in 2007.
Another upset came when capable Dutchman Robin Haase doused fifth-seeded
Slovak Martin Klizan, 6-2, 4-6, 6-4.
Meanwhile, fourth-seeded Austrian left-hander Jurgen Melzer avoided the upset
bug by coming from behind to best Indian Somdev Devvarman, 1-6, 7-6 (7-5),
Up next for Melzer will be big-serving Czech Lukas Rosol, who snuck past
Italian Flavio Cipolla, 6-4, 2-6, 6-3.
Also on Day 3, German qualifier Philipp Petzschner dismissed Croatian lucky-
loser Dino Marcan 6-3, 6-4, as Marcan replaced ill second seed Andreas Seppi
of Italy in the draw.
Petzschner will meet Haase in Friday's quarterfinals.

The National Institute on Media and the Family has taken a swipe at Nintendo over the release of Sega's bloody Madworld for the Wii.
IGN reports on a NIMF press release in which organization founder Dr. David Walsh criticizes Nintendo for licensing Madworld, which has been highly anticipated by many Wii gamers:
[Nintendo has] shed its 'family friendly' reputation with MadWorld's release.
The release of MadWorld for the Wii brings violent videogames to a once family-friendly platform. In MadWorld, gamers use the Wii Remote to make the necessary physical actions to chainsaw an opponent in half, impale an enemy with a signpost or decapitate a victim with a golf club…
In the past, the Wii has successfully sold itself as being the gaming console for the entire family and a way to bring family-game nights back into people's living rooms. Unfortunately, Nintendo opened its doors to the violent videogame genre. The National Institute on Media and the Family hopes that Nintendo does not lose sight of its initial audience and continues to offer quality, family-friendly games.
GP: While Walsh's criticism of Madworld is not unexpected, the idea that Nintendo is pursuing a family friendly policy went by the wayside with the 2007 release of Manhunt 2 for the Wii.

State parks recovering from derecho damage
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Workers have repaired most of the physical damage state parks suffered during West Virginia's epic June 29 windstorm, but the financial damage won't be as easy to fix.
Officials said the storm has cost the park system $1.28 million so far, and the tab grows larger with each canceled visit. Ken Caplinger, chief of the Division of Natural Resources' Parks Section, said the losses stem from cleanup costs and from visitors' ruined vacation plans.
"The estimates we've supplied to [the Federal Emergency Management Agency] are that we lost $503,000 in revenue just during the power outage period, and we spent an additional $750,000 for personnel and equipment to repair damage to structures and to clean up downed trees," Caplinger said.
Parks officials hope insurance and federal disaster relief funds will help them recoup some of the losses.
"We're currently working with the state's insurance company to try to collect on the revenue loss," Caplinger explained. "We think we might be able to recover our losses for the time the power was out, but losses from the storm's lingering effects can't be recovered."
Those losses continue to pile up. Caplinger said rentals of lodge rooms, cabins and campsites all are far below normal.
"We were running 1 to 1 1/2 percent below 2011 levels when the storm hit," he said. "Since the storm, we've consistently been down 15 to 20 percent. I think the storm really hammered people so badly in their private lives that they still aren't able to consider taking a vacation.
"Either they're suffering financially, or they're staying at home trying to clean up the damage they suffered to their own properties."
Caplinger said would-be visitors might also be laboring under the misconception that parks are closed or are operating in some diminished capacity.
"The truth is we're back up and operating at virtually 100 percent," he said. "Our employees did a remarkable job of clearing the debris and repairing the damage."
The storm's widespread 80-mile-per-hour winds wreaked havoc on almost every piece of property within the park system.
"We manage 49 properties, from state parks to state forests to rail-trails and wildlife management areas," Caplinger said. "Forty-eight of them suffered damage. A few structures were damaged, and a lot of trees got broken or blown down, but we were extremely fortunate that no one was killed or seriously injured."
At the time the storm struck, all of the system's campgrounds, cabins and lodges were filled with people.
"Remember, this was the weekend before the Fourth of July, and the parks were packed," Caplinger said. "We were expecting the biggest [visitation] weekend in the history of the system. Instead, people ended up going home."
He said the cleanup costs, though high, would have been much higher if parks officials had called in outside labor.
"[The cleanup] was all done by existing park staff. One of the neatest cleanup stories came from Cass [Scenic Railroad State Park]. They had trees down all over the [railroad] line. The staff there harked back to the railroad's logging days. They hooked chains to the fallen trees and used locomotives to pull the trees off the tracks. A 65-ton Shay locomotive can move a tree in a hurry."
Caplinger said most of the cleanup and repair work is done, but a couple of areas still need to be addressed.
"We're going to have to get a contractor in to repair damage to some cabins at Greenbrier State Forest, and we still have trees down on a lot of hiking trails. But we're working on those things," he added.
Agency officials aren't sure when the storm's lingering effects will fade and West Virginians return to parks in their usual numbers.
"We'll just have to wait and see," Caplinger said. "Until then, the Parks Section will have to eat some pretty hard financial cheese."

An alternate ending of "Breaking Bad" is a mash-up of Brian Cranston's two TV series.
Cranston wakes up in bed next to Jane Kaczmarek, who played his wife in "Malcolm in the Middle." He tells her he had a nightmare that he was a drug dealer who killed people and cooked meth.
She tells him he shouldn't have eaten "deep-fried Twinkies" before going to bed.
He then tries the sex movie that Walter used on Skyler. Kaczmarek tells him to knock it off.
The video ends with a shot of Walter's black Heisenberg hat on a chair.
The spoof is expected to be one of the extras in the "Breaking Bad" DVD set coming out Nov. 26.

I have only two Outlook users here. Both are on OL2003, with ZCO 5.0.2. The server is ZCS 5.0.9 NE on CentOS 4. What happens with these users is that after some period of time, they will stop seeing new messages appear in their inbox, even if they click on Send/Receive. If they shut down Outlook - which often requires killing outlook.exe from Task Manager or even rebooting - and then start it again, the new messages will suddenly appear and all will be well again for a few hours. Both of the affected machines are running on XP SP3, with Office SP3, and the problem has been happening for a long time.
Our other users are connecting via IMAP using TB2 and OE6 and never have such problems.
Is this a familiar scenario to anyone? Is it possible that this is being caused by ZCO? What additional information could I provide to help diagnose the problem?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I just upgraded my ZCS to Release 6.0.2_GA_1912. After this I've noticed that I no longer get my calendar entries on my iPhone via CalDAV. Oddly enough the phone doesn't give any errors and seems to connect fine. I can create events on the phone and they show in Zimbra but not the other way around. I even noticed that when I changed the "color" of my calendar that it correctly changed on the phone as well so I know there is communication happening, but I must be missing something.
Any help is much appreciated.

If you happened to be out and about in Hockessin on Saturday, Nov. 24, shopping local on Small Business Saturday, then perhaps you heard the call of the wild coming from Wild Birds Unlimited.
The store hosted the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, which brought their Scales and Tales program to Hockessin.
The program features live raptors, including a Great Horned Owl, Screech Owl, Red Tail Hawk and a Broad Wing Hawk.
Owner Charles Shattuck said the event was extremely well attended. "I estimate there were over a hundred people in the store at any given time. You couldn't get into the parking lot and cars were lined down Yorklyn Road," he said.
Shattuck brought the family-friendly program to the store as a way to thank his loyal customers for shopping and supporting his small store throughout the year. "It was heartening to hear the personal thanks as customers exited the store after gazing at the birds," Shattuck said.

Dillimore Police Station
this wiki
Dillimore Police Station is the local police force station serving Dillimore in Red County, San Andreas. It primarily polices the town itself but may also be responsible for the administration of justice in Red County. It is located in front of the Gasso filling gas station.
Unlike the other police stations in Red County, the police station has also an interior like the Los Santos Police Headquarters and the Las Venturas Police Headquarters. Also it includes the same features as the one in Los Santos such as prison cells, police offices, police locker rooms and police showers, and is one of the few police stations that have an interior in the state of San Andreas at all. The player will also immediately gain a 2-star wanted level if they trespass the main offices to go to the other places inside the building with firearms, however the officers will ignore you if you holster your firearms.
It also includes a garage outside the building, but no police vehicles spawn outside.
Events in GTA San Andreas
The police station also has a minor appearance in one of Catalina's missions, where the cops are alerted of CJ and her robbing the bank in Palomino Creek. CJ and Catalina manage to take out all of the Cops and get away with the money.
As the police station includes and interior, a couple of items that can be found are:
- Dildo - In the shower room
- Pistol - Prison cells
- Nightstick - In the locker room
- Shotgun - the right by the stations main offices
- 2 Body Armors - One in prison cells and another in the locker room
- When entering the police station in the Mobile version, it will display "LSPD HQ" as it has the same interior with the Los Santos Police Headquarters.

Clarkdale High School hosted its annual career fair Tuesday.
Students in grades nine through twelve got to explore potential career fields as they prepare for college or the workforce.
Colleges also had a presence at the fair as well as vocational programs. They are looking to interest the college-bound and those who may not need or want a 4-year degree.
"Kids just need the opportunity to see what's out there, to know what they have to choose from," said high school counselor Robbie Cooper. "And so that way about the ninth grade they can start deciding which avenue they want to head and that determines the classes they'll take in high school."
Military recruiters joined community and 4-year colleges at the career fair. Other vendors included law enforcement, health care, forestry and firefighting.
