While sitting in my class this morning in the Design building, I realized I hate that building. I also cannot stand Gilman and Bessey. Too much time spent in there for only a couple credits.
As for my fav, I would have to go with Beardsher and Kildee. Beardsher is just stunning inside, love going there besides the fact that I am going to spend a bunch of money. Kildee is the An Sci building, so I have to love it.
Curious to see what everybody else thinks...
***Official Unofficial Spokesman of Cyclone Fanatic.***
Least favorite poster: JHUNSY
As a business major, I think Gerdin is close to the top. Also enjoy Kildee and Beardshear.
Then a lot of other buildings....
Close to the bottom of my list... Ross, Carver.
Favorite "new" building is Gerdin (my building).
Favorite "old" building is Beardshear
Least favorite "new" building is Hoover or Howe
Least favorite "old" building is Ross.... **** that building with a thousand suns
Physics and Lebaron suck IMO. Jack trice is my favorite.
The Official Paul Rhode's Salt Truck Driver.
Wherever yo momma is.
I keed, lied is my favorite. Any classroom is my least

I basically live in Agronomy so I'm gonna go with that as my favorite.
Least favorite is probably Design or Davidson.
Favorites were Lago and Carver. Least favorites were Mole Bio and Industrial Ed.
Lago, because it is a long building oriented North-South, which makes it great for walking through on a cold day on your way to Industrial Ed. Carver because it's close to where I lived.
Mole Bio and Industrial Ed because they're forever away from everything.
Didn't really have a preference with insides of buildings, just the walk times.
I hated Ross. So darn confusing to get around in it. I spent 5 years at the design building and hated that place too. Brutalist/cubist/Stalinist architecture is just nasty.
Favorite is Beadshear or Lagomarchino.
I also hate Ross Hall. Not a huge fan of Carver, either.
I liked the big lecture hall in LeBaron. Hoover Hall was a pretty cool building, too. As a business major, Gerdin was awesome, and Friley was by far my favorite dorm.
Agree with the sentiments of Beardshear just being a really awesome old building.
Worst parts of campus: Gilman lecture hall, mckay lecture hall, Science II room 102 (the heater/ac had an obnoxious click every minute or two for two years straight)
Favorite parts outside of Hilton and Jack Trice: Larch Hall (too many good memories freshman year), LeBaron, and Curtiss Lecture Hall.
Favorite: Library (especially the basement)
Least Favorite: Lebaron-McKay
Campbell In!
Buildings I liked: Kildee, Gerdin
Ones I didn't: Gilman (that place is a dump), Molecular Biology (too far to walk), the frats (too many guys wearing sperrys)
Favorites: Carver and Memorial Union. Good memories in Carver and good places to nap in MU.
Most despised: Meat Lab. Had 8:00 am Philosophy there and it was a long cold walk from the Towers.
I big puffy heart Kildee.
Never a big fan of McKay's lecture hall
The best is by far the Knoll. The piece of land, the paths, its beautiful.

SUITLAND, Md. (WUSA9) -- Police may have made a recent arrest for the murder of a Prince George's County teen, but people who live in the county say they want to stop the violence before it starts.
Radio One of Washington DC (93.9 WKYS, Majic 102.3, Praise 104.1, WOL 1450 AM and WYCB 1340) held a "State of Emergency" Town Hall meeting Monday night at the Suitland Recreation Center.
An estimated 350 people streamed in throughout the night to talk about solutions, in the wake of six unrelated murders of Prince George's County public school students.
The event was hosted by 93.9 WKYS personalities Angie Ange and Anwan Glover. The panel included several Prince George's County community leaders including representatives including, County Executive Rushern Baker's office, Police Chief Mark Magaw, and State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks.
Chief Magaw says the community is helping, "We've had an increase of 300% in crime-solver tips and that's tremendous, that means that the community is engaged with us and helping us solve these crimes and that's what's important."
Radio personality and actor Anwan Glover has been shot several times before, and his son was even shot for his shoes. He's made it from these streets and is hoping kids will listen.
"Just let them know, if you're at the bus stop and somebody comes up, you can always get a jacket or a pair of tennis shoes again, you can't get your life again."
Tiffany White is an educator at a Prince George's County middle school. She came to talk to the panel.
"We need to do intervention now in order to make sure that they don't drop out from high school. I came to the school three years ago and some of the kids that I see have dropped out already," she said.
State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks has emerged as a strong voice and says everyone plays a part.
"This is a caring community and you know what our resolve grows stronger every day."
Police say they've solved four of the six murders. If you have any information that might help them solve the remaining two, they ask you to call Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.

|Extension on Heginbotham Library restoration approved
|Written by Chris Lee
A request for an extension for work on the Heginbotham Library Exterior Restoration project was discussed at the Tuesday, Oct. 6 City Council meeting.
Tom Balding was present to listen to the council's ruling on the project. Balding requested an extension due to unforeseen problems he encountered while working on the library. The weather also played a factor in the extension request.
The request was for 45 working days after the scheduled completion date of Nov. 26, and $6,000 compensation was also requested.
Orville Tonsing said the work Balding has done so far is very good and the extension is fair.
Ray Bailey said he looked at the building and said Balding has done more work than expected. He suggested leaving the completion date open.
"Tom could've slapped paint on it and walked away from the job but he's been very conscientious to restore everything back to the original state," Bailey said.
Council members agreed Balding is doing the job right. They said he is actually fixing problems and not just covering them up. Fixing the problems instead of simply covering them up will save any work on down the road.
The council accepted the request and voted to recommend to the library board to allow Balding to have until May 1, 2010 to finish the project. They also accepted the $6,000 compensation request.
First draft of budget presented
Council members were presented with the first draft of the 2010 budget. City Clerk Kathy Olofson said she still needs to get September figures together to complete the budget.
In other business, Bruce Rosenbach was present to ask for a special permit for the Pheasants Forever banquet. He said they usually have the event in February but would like to see it happen on the opening night of pheasant season.
With the new events center completed, he would like to see it held there so they could get a larger turnout. Council members voted to allow the request.
Reports of city officials
City Supt. Mark Brown said electrical work at the new event center was recently wrapped up, and wiring on the new fuel farm at the airport is finished. Brown said everything should be finalized around Oct. 15-16.
Police Chief Phil Biersdorfer said Holyoke P.D. has been working on a couple of runaway cases as well as a theft case. He also said they conducted some early morning patrols on S. Interocean Ave. after concern about traffic issues was raised during the Sept. 15 council meeting.
In other business Oct. 6, council members:
—accepted airport liability renewal quote.
—approved liquor license renewal for Kwik Stop.
—accepted travel requests for Tillie Fisbeck and Olofson.

The family that 'plays' together …
(Page 2 of 4)
The Hugues share their love of the theater with family friends Dana Feminella, 42, and her daughter Marissa, 11. This is the Feminellas' third show together, having appeared in "On Broadway" and in last year's "Mame" with IPTG. When Dana was her daughter's age, she was in the Long Beach Theatre Guild's productions of "Oliver" and "The Wizard of Oz."
"I love that we share this together, but it's a struggle sometimes because we are together a lot," said Feminella. " I also have a tendency to be very critical, which can also cause tension." Nevertheless, Feminella said, just as she is returning to the stage, her daughter is just beginning her own journey.
Seasoned musicians Reneé Socci, 53, and her husband Enrico ("Rico"), 56, have lived in Valley Stream for almost 26 years and raised both of their sons there. The couple are in the folk group of Holy Name of Mary Church where Reneé is the director and Rico plays guitar. Reneé has taught piano and voice for more than 30 years, and joined IPTG in 1992, starring as "Maria" in "The Sound of Music," the show that started their family involvement in theater. After joining the IPTG board, Reneé went on to play various roles, including the title role in last year's "Mame." She and Rico also starred in IPTG's production of the comedy "A Wind Between The Houses," where her husband played the part of her son.
"We rehearse at home, in the car, while shopping or wherever we may be, and it usually ends up with us laughing," said Reneé. "It gives us an opportunity to just be ourselves again — not parents, husband and wife, but friends."
This is the second show that Merrick resident Ilicia Beck has done with all three of her children: Lexie Weinstein, 13, and 10-year-old twins Max and Jared Weinstein. A single mother, Beck has been in community theater for five years and her children for even longer than that.

See the top 20 most helpful scuba gear reviews
Average Customer Review: based on 2 reviews.Rating: Great wetsuit!
I noticed that the Aqua Lock product description does not mention a spine support pad as is included in the standard H2. Is that a text oversight or does the Aqua Lock not have the spine pad?
Hello Im 64 210lbs with a real athletic build. Broad shoulders 35 inch waist. Can you recommend any wetsuit that would fit me well. I cant find any for tall and really athletic with small waist.
Hello Jake, when you are sizing a wetsuit or dive skin. The two most important measurements are going to be your chest/bust and waist. Height is a secondary measurement and weight is the last measurement you take into account. The manufacture that I have found that work well for big chests and smaller waist is the Pinnacle line.
I just bought the Henderson 5mm aqua lock in Womens size 8. It is SO tight in the neck seal it literally blocks my neck veins and they start bulging immediately, that is with or without having the Velcro neck attachment open or closed. I am 58", 120 pounds, chest 32, waist 26 and hips 35, with a long torso 27 inches. The size 8 feels fairly loose in legs and way loose under arms, but the torso length is riding up my rear end. I was considering a Mens XS as a better fit for me. Please advise me, my first thought was to cut a slash or a v in the neck seal, otherwise it would be unwearable because of the neck tightness.
What size should I order? 6`1" 200lbs
Use the sizing chart keeping mind to look at waist and chest measurements as the two most important measurements, then height as a secondary measurement. Use weight only to tip the scales one way or another between sizes. After that pick the suit with the best fit for your body.
Good afternoon. I am a 5ft 5 inch woman with long legs, long arms, and broad shoulders. I weight 113 pounds and my measurements are 37 bust, 26 waist and 34 hips. The widest part of my thigh is around 18 inches. I need a wetsuit that will give me enough upper body width and is not large in the hips and thighs. Most of the suits that fit the bottom of my body are really tight in the shoulders and bust line. I am looking for a 5mm wetsuits as I am always cold. The current one I have is a henderson size 4 3mm that somewhat fits because it stretches a lot but does not keep me warm even with adding a sleeveless 3mm henderson vest. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you!
I bought a large Henderson 5mm Aqua lock wetsuit but did not realize that that the suit would take or hold water inside and went you come out of the water the water become trap an balong just above your ankles and will not come out untill you star taking it off. Not one suggested at the store that a medium long would fix better . Now I try to go back to the store and they would not exchange for a different size. Anything I could do ??? Is really very awfull the look an people laugh. I fell like waist the money away. Would Henderson company can help me??? I use it only once and refuse to use it again because do not think it was fair the store not mentioned this to me . I have another wetsuit and never does this. I fell that this detail must be mentioned went intend to buy one. Any suggestion or I wast taken by the store,or can Henderson company can help me????
Hello Hector, it would be a used refund but if you bought the suit from us we can exchange the suit for a different size. If you bought the suit from someone else then you would need to contact the manufacture directly they would be able to help you out.
I tried on a henderson hyperstretch size 6 and it fit perfect. (I currently have a henderson, size 6, 5mm, but it is compressed to about a 3mm now, so I need more warmth.) I would like to try the aqua lock, but I noticed they only come in S, M, L, .... Im not sure what size to order. I am 53", 125-130lbs, chest is 35, waist 29-30, hips around 40. What size would you recommend?? Thank you so much, Christine
Im not sure what size to order. I am height 68.5in, weight 150lbs What size would you recommend??
The most important measurements any time you purchase a wetsuit using the manufacturer's sizing charts will always be your waist and chest/bust measurements. The suit needs to fit your torso correctly in order to do its job properly. Keep in mind there is no such thing as a comfortable wetsuit on the surface. You want it to be snug, but not cut off circulation to your extremities. The more snug it is, the thinner the layer of water your body is heating. If its too loose you will remain warm for awhile, but eventually your body won't be able to keep up with the greater amount of water flowing through the suit and you'll wind up getting cold faster. After that your height is a secondary measurement. The manufacturers realize that generally speaking your boots and gloves can overlap slightly short arms and legs, or the diver can push or roll up longer sleeves and/or arms if need be. Weight is a measurement the diver can usually ignore. It really has little to no bearing what so ever on the sizing and fit of your suit. The manufacturers do not take into account muscle being more dense than fat, so based simply on fitness levels 2 people can be the exact same size but quite different in weight. This measurement should only be used if the person is literally on the fence between 2 sizes in all categories.
Hello, Please help me with this decision regarding the size: Im 58, 180 pounds, chest 45", waist 36". According to the measurement table i should be getting and extra large short, but im afraid that would be too long for my height. Opting for large short would be a tight fit on torso area. Please advice! Thank you!!!
Waist and Chest are the 2 most important measurements. Height is secondary. The suit needs to fit the torso first and most importantly to do it''s job correctly. The manufacturers know that boots and gloves can overlap if a bit short or that sleeves and legs and be rolled or pushed up if need be, so long as the torso fits correctly.
Do You have a 3XL for sale for the open box Price? if so, let me know so i can buy it. thanks, Brian
Hello Brian, in the demo sizes we only have XSmall and Medium-Short. If you are looking for a 3XL suit take a look at the http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-42/150214/Pinnacle-5mm-Cruiser-Wetsuit.html.

Incumbents Montgomery, Holmes, Uhler leading in Placer supes races
By: Gus Thomson, Journal Staff Writer
AUBURN CA - All three of Placer County?s standing supervisors up for election were on their way to victory Tuesday night, early vote totals indicated. Election returns posted by 10:30 p.m. ? counting vote-by-mail ballots and some early-reporting precincts ? showed Supervisors Jim Holmes of District 3, Jennifer Montgomery in District 5 and Kirk Uhler in District 4 with healthy leads. North Auburn?s Holmes, representing portions of rural Auburn as well as Loomis, Rocklin and Newcastle, was challenged by Robert Grigas of Newcastle. The early numbers from Placer County elections showed Holmes was polling double the votes of Grigas, with 66.03 percent of the vote. With 21.37 percent of the vote counted, the numbers showed Holmes with 3,413 votes to 1,729 for Grigas. Holmes expressed thanks to his supporters but also to Grigas ? a first time candidate for elected office. This was the 11th election for Holmes. He?s never been defeated in runs for supervisor, Auburn Union School District trustee and board member on the old Placer Consolidated Fire Protection District. ?I want to think Mr. Grigas for the challenge,? Holmes said. ?He forced me out and made me do a little more. I thank him for taking the chance and challenging me. I turned it up a few notches, particularly in Rocklin. I felt comfortable but you never know.? Grigas said that while the early numbers looked ?grim? he owed it to his supporters to wait until the full count was in before making a statement on the outcome. ?I?m really glad I had an opportunity to participate and feel got the message out in the marketplace and that?s a good thing,? Grigas said. ?People heard and liked what we had to say. We had significant financial constraints but I completely understand that as well.? Uhler, whose District 4 includes Granite Bay and parts of Roseville, was handily fending off Granite Bay?s Pam Tobin. Uhler?s vote total of 4,523 represented 59.69 percent of the 7,578 votes counted. Tobin polled 3,040 votes, or 40.12 percent. Montgomery, perhaps, had the toughest challenge as she faced an election against four candidates ? Jerry Johnson of Meadow Vista, Rich Johnson of Auburn, Gary Johnson of Colfax and Mark Wright of Colfax. But the early results, with 6,818 votes counted, showed Montgomery with more than 50 percent of the vote and in position to avoid a runoff in November with the second leading vote-getter. A runoff would happen if no candidate in the District 5 race polled a majority. Montgomery garnered 52.83 percent of the early vote count and 4,323 votes. Jerry Johnson was in second place, with 1,349 votes ? or 16.49 percent. Auburn?s Rich Johnson followed close behind, with 1,147 votes, or 14.02 percent. Gary Johnson, with 677 votes (8.27 percent) and Wright (663, 8.1 percent) trailed the other three.

Thomas Warren, wtop.com
WASHINGTON – Brian Krebs was vacuuming his living room in his Fairfax County home Thursday afternoon when the phone rang in his upstairs office. He made a mental note to check the message later. He had to get the house ready for a dinner party he was hosting later that evening.
Krebs, 40, noticed the plastic tape he used to secure the extension cord from the outside was still stuck to his front door, he wrote in a blog post on his website krebsonsecurity.com.
As he opened the door to peel the tape off he heard someone shout, "Don't move! Put your hands in the air," he wrote.
Krebs stood up, looked straight ahead, then to his left, and realized a troop of Fairfax County police officers with pistols, shotguns, and semi-automatic rifles drawn, were pointing their weapons at him, he wrote.
Krebs didn't know at the time that he was the victim of a new phenomenon called "swatting."
The goal of the prank is to get police to respond to an emergency that doesn't exist. Someone calls 911 and makes it look like the call came from the victim's home.
Krebs, a local cybersecurity journalist, believes he was the target of the swatting because of a post he wrote in August 2012 about an online service for hire to knock websites offline, he wrote in his blog.
Six months earlier, he says he wrote to Fairfax County police warning them he may be targeted.
Standing in handcuffs that afternoon, Krebs explained to officers what swatting was. According to Krebs, the call he missed while vacuuming was from police returning the 911 call from the number they received. He was released and says officers apologized to him for the inconvenience.
Celebrities have also been caught in the crosshairs of swatting. Earlier this month, a 12-year-old boy in Los Angeles admitted to making prank calls to police that sent officers to the homes of singer Justin Beiber and actor Ashton Kutcher.

59th Detroit Autorama - Gettin' Down(stairs) In DetroitWritten by on August 1, 2011 We Go High And Low At The 59th Autorama
It had been roughly 15 years or so since I'd gone to the Detroit Autorama—I recall the Ridler winner being a '90s Mercedes Pro Mod, if that tells you anything. For many reasons, it was about time I ended that absentee streak, and this was the year for my return to Cobo Hall.
Things sure have changed over the years, and I'm not just talking about the Autorama, either. No more walking across Jefferson Avenue from the Pontchartrain—it was all about the People Mover and 50-cent tokens and hoards of heavily inked people running amok in the Renaissance Center. (I was probably the only tattooed hotel guest who wasn't there for the tattoo convention!) But as for the show, it was pretty much as I'd remembered … well, at least the ground floor at Cobo Hall was.
For the last few years, Detroit has opened its basement doors (where I believe they first tested the waters with the inclusion of import/tuner cars) for the kind of hot rods and customs we can all relate to: real-world cars, not zillion-dollar show cars. Dubbed the Autorama Extreme, the downstairs exhibit had no Ridler buzz, no elaborate vehicle displays, it was just a good old-fashioned car show with a bunch of good old-fashioned hot rods and customs.
But don't get me wrong, there were plenty of reasons to spend time upstairs as well. While the Ridler contention was nowhere near the caliber of recent years, quite a few entries on display were deserving of more than just an honorable mention, as you're about to see.
Seeing as next year is Detroit's big 60th, which ought to attract more heavy hitters fishing for the Ridler with some real high-dollar bait, I don't foresee another streak of mine starting anytime too soon. I'm not a huge fan of the cold weather, but I do like Detroit and the people there are great. The only downside—fighting the temptation to get another tattoo!

One of the first cars that caught my attention downstairs at the Detroit Autorama was Bob Adams' '32 roadster.It wasn't long before the truth surfaced through the rust—Bob Adams' roadster was not only a fresh build, it's fiberglass bodied too (all of which he readily admits). A knuckle tap on the quarter-panel told the tale, but so too did a couple parts that needn't be touched in the first place, such as the front axle and steering arm.Still, never had I seen such a great disguise, especially with the rusty areas, some of which are really 'glass.Rob Paul's Model A was no hoax—it's a pure Hemi-powered hot rod. The black-on-black '30 coupe has a nice profile with its hammered top and a perfect stance atop a Deuce chassis.Don't call it a rat rod! Really, don't—that's according to the owner's display board, and for good reason, too. Mark Rickett's '33 five-window is a pure, pedigreed hot rod, having been raced in California during the '50s and '60s, after which it was put away in storage until Bill McGrath (Early Ford Store) rescued it. Rickett successfully persuaded a purchase and the coupe now resides—and drives—in Michigan.
Upstairs Bobby Alloway was the Autorama's 2011 Builder of the Year—and what an impressive collective of "builds" he had on display. Whether they were built last summer or last decade, there's a certain Alloway touch that distinguish his cars from any other.Lest we forget the Don Ridler Memorial Award? No sir, especially not considering the Bruce Ricks–built '56 Ford Sunliner "Suncammer" being the rightful recipient after all the ballots had been tallied. Congrats!It's likely that not too many of the spectators realized the importance of these cars, regardless of whether they're recreations or restorations—without them, there probably wouldn't be an Autorama to begin with!Michael Tarquinio's "Second Wind" is his interpretation of a '32 Zephyr, had there ever been one as such. In short, he integrated as much actual Lincoln components to a '32 Ford as possible—from the taillights to the dash and steering wheel. The engine, however, is an Olds J2—a rather rare aluminum head model at that—which has been disguised with Lincoln tin.What is it, you ask? Good question—but don't expect a real logical answer from owner/builder Steve Grimes. If you're familiar with Steve's past creations (O'Bannon Roadster Company), then you already know there's no particular rhyme or reason, as he tends to deviate way off course from the hot rod norm, with each effort resulting in a one-of-a-kind roadster. This time around, he did his thing with a '27 T—his thing being front-wheel drive (via flipped quick-change), rear steer (via VW rack-and-pinion), and a rear-mounted '48 Buick straight-eight. Those wheels dwarfing the shrunken roadster are Chevrolet circa 1927.Ever wonder what automotive artists do in their spare time? Jeff Allison appears to be an expert undercarriage cleaner, as seen here spit-polishing all the shiny stuff on Russ Freund's "Takeout T". They don't call them starving artists for nothing!And speaking of important history, here's a great throwback for you: the Oliver Hines–built '33 Ford now owned by Barry Ewing.

WASHINGTON – Three pedestrians were seriously hurt Monday night in two separate accidents in the area.
The first happened on Wisteria Drive at the intersection in Germantown around 6:30 p.m.
The man was taken to a local hospital in grave condition.
In a press release, Montgomery County officials asked that anyone who witnessed the collision or who may know the identity of the victim, is asked to call investigators at 240-773-6620, or the non-emergency line at 301-279-8000. Officials believe he is hispanic and in his 30s.
The second incident was in Gaithersburg at 355 near Shady Grove Road around 8:40pm.
A man and woman were hit and police had to remove the man from the windshield. Both pedestrians were critically hurt.
Drivers remained on the scene in both incidents.

RamRodder Part XIV Seats and SteeringWritten by on November 1, 2012
For a variety of reasons, such as budgets, boredom or business, project cars often get moved to the back of the shop where they languish, often becoming just another shelf to pile parts on. This usually lasts until the desire for a finished project overcomes the excuses for not working on it. After its latest hiatus, we're once again fired up and have focused our attention to Project RamRodder.
With all the welding on the rollbar completed, the floor permanently in place, and the dashboard done, we turned our attention to installing seats and the steering column and wheel. Our first thought on seating was to copy what used to be common with Mopar racers, seats, and sheetmetal pedestals from a Dodge van or A-100 pickup. Unfortunately, the Gasser craze may have prompted others to have the same thought, or there's more interest in restoring Dodge vans and trucks than we ever imagined. Regardless of the reason, the worst set of seats we found had a ridiculous price tag, and the better the seats the worse the price became. Fortunately our friends at Speedway Motors offered an alternative with brand-new, low-back vinyl seats for a little over $200 each, less than it would have cost us to re-cover a beat-up set of buckets. Available in black, white, and beige, these seats have generous dimensions and adjustable backrests.
Once the seats bolted solidly to the underfloor braces, our next chore was to mount the steering column. We're using a basic, straight-tube, competition-type column from Flaming River. The mill finish 304 Grade Stainless tube is 1-3/4 inches in diameter and has a 3/4-inch 36-spline shaft on the steering box end, while on the other end it's a 3/4-inch smooth to accept a quick-release steering wheel hub. To mount the wheel we used a Flaming River quick-release hub with a standard three-bolt mounting pattern. For a steering wheel we chose a classic vinyl three-spoke from Moon, complete with a chrome dome horn button.
We spent a few evenings modifying the seat mounts and fabricating steering column brackets and in the end found renewed enthusiasm and a renewed resolve to get RamRodder on the road. Besides, Brennan says he's done making engine sounds, so we can't sit in it and pretend we're driving, now we've got to make it run.

While we were bargain hunting we opted for a pair of seat mounts from Speedway as well. We couldn't make them for the price.Along with the seats and mounts, sliding adjusters are available from Speedway. In our case we decided to bolt the seats in place without any means of adjustment.To make the mounts bolt directly to the seats some modification were required. All four tubes of the frame were cut, then the sections were bolted in place.The frames had to be lengthened and widened slightly. This was done by slipping tubing over the cut portions and welding it in place.Continuing the simplicity theme, we fabricated the lower steering column mounts from flat stock and a muffler clamp. The two pieces sandwich the toeboard for strength; the clamp is on the outside.Due to the large transmission tunnel foot room is at a premium. We determined where the column had to exit and cut a hole in the floor.Two Flaming River stainless steel U-joints were used to hook the steering column to the Corvette box. The U-joints are connected by a short section of double-D shaft.The upper steering column mount started out as a piece of scrap 1/8-inch plate. An opening for the column was cut with a hole saw and one end was rounded.
One side was welded solid, then with the aid of a torch short sections of the flat stock were heated, wrapped around the mount, and tacked in place.Once completed, the upper mount was welded to the rollbar crossbrace and the column was slipped into place and secured at the top and bottom with the clamps. Note the splined end on the shaft for a quick-release steering wheel mount.Flaming River's quick-release hub bolted directly to the Moon steering wheel. The wheel is removed by sliding the spring loaded retainer toward the driver.

The skin across the body is often neglected, particularly in the winter months when it is hidden under layers of clothing. However, if you want to retain youthful contours and firm skin, you must treat your body to more than a quick wash with shower gel and a slather of moisturizer. Wilma Schumann Firming/Cellulite products contain active ingredients that tighten the skin across the body, tackle unsightly cellulite, and deliver younger-looking skin. Formulated with unique blends of botanical extracts and advanced complexes, Wilma Schumann Firming/Cellulite treatments penetrate deep in to the lower layers of the skin. In doing so, they deliver maximum impact and help you to achieve visible improvements in the condition of your skin.
Unsightly, dimpled skin can appear on the surface of the skin, particularly around the upper arms, things, buttocks, and stomach. This characteristic pattern indicates the presence of cellulite under the skin and can lead to individuals becoming self-conscious about their bodies. Wilma Schumann Firming/Cellulite products help to break down the fatty deposits that lead to cellulite formation. With regular use, skin is toned, firmed, and contoured, restoring body confidence.
You can achieve taut, toned skin around the thighs, buttocks, upper arms, bust, and décolleté by using Wilma Schumann Firming/Cellulite treatments on a regular basis. Treating the skin across your body will help to inspire body confidence.
In order to reduce and minimize cellulite, massage Wilma Schumann Body Contouring Serum in to affected areas in the evening before you retire to bed. As you sleep, a CoAxel complex will deliver the cellulite-fighting benefits of caffeine, L-Carnitine, and Coenzyme A. In addition, a blend of potent botanical extracts, including ginkgo biloba, ivy, witch hazel, calendula, horse chestnut, and guarana seed, will detoxify and condition the skin. With regular use of this powerful emulsion, skin will become smoother, tauter, and more toned.
It can be difficult to address the signs of aging affecting the neck, décolleté, and bust. These areas are often exposed to many of the same environmental aggressors as the face, but tend to receive less attention. You can change this by including Wilma Schumann Neck and Bust Creme Intensiv as part of your morning and evening beauty routines. This concentrated formula delivers the lifting effects of micronized titanium dioxide combined with potent plant extracts and moisturizing agents. Collagen and elastin help to increase the skin's elasticity, while Argireline® smoothes out wrinkles. Brightening agents, such as kojic acid, help to increase skin's radiance and luminosity. Simply smooth on to cleansed and toned skin twice a day. This gentle formulation is suitable for all skin types.

TUCSON (AP) — Authorities have released the name of a wheelchair-bound woman who was fatally struck by a vehicle while leaving a high school graduation in Tucson.
Northwest Fire District officials say 82-year-old Dorothy Penrod died Thursday night, shortly after arriving at University of Arizona Medical Center.
The woman's 59-year-old nephew also was struck and was listed Friday in extremely critical condition.
Fire District officials say a group of people was crossed a street after watching a relative graduate from Mountain View High School.
They say the group was crossing the road at a spot without a crosswalk or lights and about 600 feet from a lit intersection with traffic signals.
The driver of the vehicle involved in the accident was said to be cooperating with Pima County sheriff's investigators.

St. Louis (KSDK) - A north St. Louis woman pleaded guilty Tuesday to first-degree robbery charges in a bizarre series of events that left her hospitalized with severe injuries after she jumped from the roof of a building as police closed in to arrest her.
Michelle Faye White, 34, was arrested in August 2011 following the crime at the drive thru lane of the White Castle restaurant on Hebert Street in north St. Louis.
Police say White, armed with a toy gun announced a hold-up, then climbed through the drive-thru counter window and stole the cash drawer around 3:00 a.m. in the morning.
White then fled the crime scene, but not before her license number was recorded by another patron in the drive thru lane.
Police tracked White to a nearby residence where she was hiding, then jumped from the rooftop in an attempt to escape officers.
White will be sentenced January 4, 2013.

Review: Audi A6 Avant
14:53 28 November 2011
The beautifully finished Audi A6 Avant demonstrates that practicality needn't be prosaic. Andy Enright reports.
Both bigger and lighter than its predecessor, the latest Audi A6 Avant really goes to town with the working smarter rather than harder theme. If there's a cleverer estate car out there, it's keeping very quiet about it.
Of late, the idea of the one size fits all car seems to have rather fallen out of fashion. Such is the fervour at which car manufacturers attempt to develop niches within niches when it comes to specialist cars, it's hard to countenance that we could possibly get by with any fewer than two or three cars per household. In that regard at least, the Audi A6 Avant might be thought of as something as a throwback. Here's a car that can do virtually anything you ask of it, discreetly and without ever leaving its comfort zone.
Estate cars have had a tough time of it in the last decade. MPV people carriers and 4x4 sports utility vehicles have eroded the market share of estates. Many car makers only have themselves to blame, pouring all of their creativity into SUVs and MPVs while blithely refusing to get creative with their estates. The latest A6 Avant might not bring too much novelty to the art of load lugging but the Audi is utterly stuffed with high tech features and if this appeals and you need some added room for family essentials, the Avant still has much to offer.
Driving Experience
It was Colin Chapman who said that the best way to improve a vehicle was to simplify then add lightness. If that is indeed the case, then Audi's A6 Avant is halfway to becoming a decent drive. It has certainly added lightness, with the entry-level 2.0-litre TDI diesel version that most customers will choose slicing 70kg from its predecessor's kerb weight. The A6 has never had the best reputation for ride, largely because it took Audi quite some time to figure out how to tune their suspensions systems in harmony with the stiffer sidewalls of run-flat tyres. The latest A6 improves that situation by taking crucial unsprung weight out of the suspension system by using aluminium components and also offers the option of adaptive air suspension with controlled damping.
Engines? The Avant gets four from the outset with as many as five more waiting in the wings. To begin with, Audi has concentrated on efficiency with a 175bhp 2.0-litre TDI diesel that will be the big seller. Two more diesels are also available, both based on a 3.0-litre common-rail V6. The 202bhp version will be offered with Audi's optional Multitronic continuously variable transmission and front-wheel drive while the brawnier 243bhp V6 diesel will get quattro four-wheel drive and Audi's seven-speed S-Tronic twin-clutch gearbox. It's good for 62mph in 6.1 seconds. If that's not quick enough, you'll need a petrol engine and it'll be the 298bhp 3.0 TFSI with 298bhp, quattro four-wheel drive and a seven-speed twin-clutch gearbox which rockets through 62mph in 5.5 seconds. If you can hang on, Audi dealers will whisper of a 310bhp twin-turbo V6 TDI that sounds like a whole lot of engine.
Design and Build
If anything, the Avant's styling is rather better resolved than that of the A6 saloon's. Where the four door car has an aggressive front and somewhat apologetic rear end lines, the Avant looks better balanced, to this eye at least. The steeply-raked rear window hints that this Audi is more concerned with style than ultimate carrying capacity but most buyers in this class will forgo a few litres of space for a slinkier shape. There's plenty of space to play with inside the A6 Avant, though. The wheelbase has been massively extended over its predecessor's with resultant benefits when it comes to interior room.
The A6 Avant has a capacity of 565 litres, which can be increased to 1,680 litres by folding down the rear seat backs. The load bay has luggage lashing eyes, side restraining straps, bag hooks, a double cargo floor, a rail luggage fixing system, a dirt-resistant tray and roof rails as standard. A through-load facility and a fixing set that uses the two standard rails in the cargo floor are optional. The luggage compartment in this Avant can even be opened automatically simply by waving your foot to a pair of sensors beneath the rear bumper if the optional advanced key feature is added.
Market and Model
The Audi A6 Avant is competitively priced, with £32,100 getting your name on the registration document of the entry-level 2.0-litre TDI SE manual. Another £1,500 will net you the Multitronic eight-speed gearbox which takes the drag out of city driving. Only the most powerful diesel and petrol engines are available with quattro all-wheel drive, but so good are the standard traction and stability control systems that only in the most extreme conditions will you miss traction going to all four tyres.
Even the entry-level Avant SE includes alloy wheels, leather upholstery, cruise and front and rear parking controls, SD-based satellite navigation, Bluetooth phone preparation, split/folding rear seats and light and rain sensors. S line models add larger 18-inch alloy wheels, xenon headlamps with LED daytime running lamps, sports suspension, upgraded Valcona leather upholstery and an exclusive S line exterior and interior styling treatment.
Options include comfort seats with heating, cooling and massaging functions, acoustic glazing, supple leather trimming for the centre console, a 15-speaker 1200-watt Bang & Olufsen audio system and a TV receiver.
Cost of Ownership
Audi reckons that the marketing mix of this Avant model is geared more towards private buyers than the saloon model so fuel consumption is one factor that the A6 must have working in its favour. The company predicts that around 85 per cent of all UK sales will be claimed by the 2.0-litre TDI diesel and with its 56.5mpg combined fuel economy figure and 132g/km emissions, day to day running costs certainly aren't going to put a significant dent in the monthly budget.
Exceptional aerodynamics and the replacement of inefficient torque converter automatics with twin-clutch automated manual and CVT transmissions also helps to improve economy. The A6 features engine stop/start as standard, as well as regenerative braking, which improves economy by reducing alternator drag during normal driving, instead driving the alternator only during deceleration and braking. Another feature that ekes a little more out of a gallon of fuel is the electrically assisted power steering. Residual values also look extremely strong.
The Audi A6 Avant makes all the right numbers. If you were to choose an executive class estate car based on specifications and hard economics, the Audi would get the nod every time. It has progressed in all the right ways, offering less weight, more space and better efficiency. It is, in every conceivable respect, a better car than before. Is that enough though?
That's a tough question to answer. Audi has quietly eclipsed both of its key German rivals when it comes to interior finish and technological convergence. What it lacks when compared to BMW or Mercedes is charisma. The A6 is like that ferociously intelligent but softly-spoken university lecturer who sends his students to sleep. It needs a little more spikiness and attitude in its DNA. Until then, it's a car to admire, if not to love.

Meet the neighbors
Each Lennar Next Gen home is unique, from the home design and finishes, to the families that call it home. And, each family has its own personal story to tell. See how real families across the country use their Next Gen home.
The Gardners
Steve and Sharon Gardner live in the main home, while Sharon's mother has set up in their Next Gen suite. Everybody in the family is happily retired, including the Gardner's cat—because, according to Steve, "cats are always retired."View the family floorplan >
Every morning, Steve brings his mother-in-law a latte and they talk politics. "The interconnecting door is like an outside door. It's soundproof, but if there was an emergency, we're right there."
Before their Next Gen home, Sharon would call her mother during her commute to work, "but talking on the phone isn't the same as visiting and asking her how she is and seeing the expression on her face so I know if she's just pulling my leg."
"She's an independent person. It hasn't inconvenienced us in the least. It's not like having somebody living in your guest bedroom. She's got her house and she treats it as her house."
Steve grills up some steaks on the patio of his Next Gen home, while the ladies visit over tea. "The convenience and privacy part go hand in hand. It's just a great concept," Steve says.
The Gardners
The Webbs
Ken and Gail Webb transformed their Next Gen suite into a music studio. As a working musician, Ken loves having his own space to work and jam with his buddies. Gail also loves that Ken has his own space to jam with his buddies.View the family floorplan >
With the Next Gen suite's kitchenette, Ken can grab a beer or snack from the fridge without interrupting his wife, while she's working in the main home.
Ken uses the bedroom in the Next Gen suite as his office. "When you work from home, the environment and space plays a significant role. And I hadn't really appreciated the true extent of that until we moved into this home."
"It's so easy to fit our things and to make them look like they belong in this space. And maybe that's it. We belong in this space."
Gail loves having the office in the main home for her stationary business. "I always wanted a red room. It makes me feel glorious, it really does. I have my office, he has his man cave."
Every week, Ken invites his friends over to his music studio to catch up and play together. Gail calls it "Man Cave Friday."
The Webbs cherish the time they spend on their back porch. "That backyard has kind of become our oasis," says Gail, "we have coffee in the morning or dinner out there."
The Webbs
The Chows
Tom and Rebecca Chow emigrated to California from Hong Kong over two decades ago as students. Now their two children are students themselves. While the Next Gen suite makes a great teen escape space for Ryan and Tiffany, the family's primary use for it is to host visiting relatives from Hong Kong, Canada and Saudi Arabia.View the family floorplan >
It was home love at first sight for the Chows. "We walked in and wow…so much openness in one room and everything really made sense how it is laid out. We can all hang out together and have a great time."
With her brother away at UCLA most of the time, Tiffany got to nab the biggest upstairs bedroom. "It has a walk-in closet and a girl needs that!" she explains with a grin.
The Chows relish family game night and get quite competitive about Mahjong. "If we win, the kids have to do the dishes," laughs Tom.
On the weekends, Ryan comes home from the college dorms, where "everything is just very small." He loves using the Next Gen suite to sprawl out and study, and also likes to study in the upstairs office alcove.
The Chows love to travel and have taken their kids to Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Canada and Texas. But even more now, they love coming home.
When the family isn't hosting visitors, Ryan and Tiffany like to hang out in the Next Gen suite, playing video games, studying or just chilling with friends.
Besides the Next Gen suite, Rebecca's favorite home feature is the dedicated wok kitchen. The tiled backsplash, powerful vent hood and high-heat stove are designed to accommodate traditional Chinese cooking.
Tom acknowledges that when you have teenagers, they're going to have issues at times. But in their home, they can all "spend time together as a family and everything will be better … we can do it in different ways, but together we all can achieve that American Dream."
The Clarks
For six years, Bill Clark's parents lived with his family, but he wanted to find a home that could better accommodate his mother's mobility issues. So when he discovered the Next Gen home while on a family trip to Central Florida, he decided this vacation was going to be permanent.View the family floorplan >
Grandma Clark catches up with her granddaughter as she cuts carrots for her famous stew in the Next Gen kitchenette. "If you're really here to be with your family, this is a nice set-up. It really is."
"Living together and sharing costs is a huge factor," Bill points out. "It's really beneficial to work together to keep the house running."
Grandma Clark was thrilled when she discovered her washer and dryer were hidden away in the kitchen. "In the other house, I had to go to the basement to do laundry so when I couldn't do the steps anymore, Bill would have to do it for me."
"We looked at the home as a future investment for ourselves because with three children, eventually when we get older, it's possible we could live in the Next Gen suite and one of the children can have the home," Bill mentions.
In the main home, Bill's family has opted for a pool table instead of a kitchen table. "We have a large enough table in the breakfast nook, so we tried to make it a fun family home."
The Clark Family
The Wisemans
Eddie and Emily Wiseman needed a home that could accommodate their two kids, as well as their latest addition to the family—Emily's mother. The Next Gen home is perfect since it keeps the family together, but still gives everyone a place to call their own.View the family floorplan >
The master bedroom in the Next Gen suite is great for Grandma Wiseman. "It's like having my own place, but with the benefit that somebody is around if I need help."
Emily spends many afternoons with her mother in the courtyard. "I just love to go out there. It's peaceful. The way the house surrounds the porch, there's a lot of privacy."
Since his mother-in-law is just next-door, Eddie is notorious for sneaking a few cookies from her kitchenette in the Next Gen suite.
The Wisemans love their movie nights and big family dinners in the main home. "We can come together and relax and not feel like we're on top of each other."
Eddie works from home in the main office. When the double-doors are closed, his family knows he's hard at work. "We have beautiful wood floors in there. So I love that. I've got my desk. I bought a couch. It's big enough for all those things."
"Our home is not a cookie-cutter design, it has a lot of flexibility in ways a family would choose to use it," Eddie points out. "From a resale perspective, if I'm being practical about things, it's not going to be on the market very long because there are very few homes with this design."
The Aults
Tom and Lenore Ault were empty nesters who, for the first time in their marriage, were looking for a home that was just for them. It was important each had a space to call their own, as well as a space to share. The Next Gen home gave them just that.View the family floorplan >
Lenore decorated the main home to her liking, while Tom made the Next Gen suite his own. "Opposites attract," Lenore says with a smile. "And we were able to reflect that with the Next Gen suite."
The Next Gen suite provides Lenore and her husband with their own personal space. "I realized this doesn't have to be an in-law suite, this could be his man cave, where he would have privacy," Lenore points out.
Tom works out of the Next Gen suite's bedroom, which he's turned into his office. "We didn't have the scenario most people think of it for, but when we thought of it as a space for me, it worked perfectly."
Tom and Lenore relax on their back patio. "I think the biggest thing I want to stress is this has been a fun house for us because it's been about us."

Q&A: Alex Megos Sends Biographie/Realization (5.15a) in Three Tries
The 20-year-old German wunderkind Alex Megos has astounded the climbing world once again with his one-day, third-try ascent of Biographie/Realization (5.15a) in Céüse, France. Though Megos has climbed 5.15a in fewer tries—claiming a second-go ascent of La Rambla in Siurana, Spain, last March, just days after making the historic, first confirmed onsight of a 5.14d—this lightning-quick ascent of Biographie has raised eyebrows for the fact that out of the eight other climbers who have managed to repeat this notoriously difficult route, all of them needed significantly more time to do so.
Rock and Ice contacted Megos to hear more about his ascent of Biographie and his other projects at Céüse.
R&I: Is this your first time to Céüse?
Yes, this is my first time to Céüse, but definitely not the last time.
R&I: How did you manage to send Biographie in three tries?
I would say this route totally suited my style! It's endurancy and has the crux of the route at about 80 feet. The crux, as well as most of the rest of the route is on pockets with a strange form. And that's exactly what we also have in Frankenjura, Germany, on almost every route. So I felt quite comfortable on the holds.
R&I: Did you expect to send it so quickly?
Actually, before trying it I didn't expect it, no. But after working the route I realized that it's definitely possible in one day.
R&I: Did you flash the 5.14c intro before the 5.15a extension?
I didn't give it a flash or onsight attempt. I directly started working the moves and then started to do redpoint attempts. But when I actually started the redpoint attempts (after working the route once) I never fell on the 5.14c part.
R&I: On the send, did you have a feeling it was going down?
I already had the feeling that it was going down on my first redpoint attempt. But after falling two times on the crux, I changed my foot sequence (thanks to Felix for convincing me to try new beta) and then did it next (third) attempt.
R&I: What other routes are are you psyched to try at Céüse? Sharma's Three Degrees of Separation (5.14d)?
I tried Three Degrees of Separation, but I just can't do the jump. After Biographie, I had a look at another project which would have been super hard (around 5.15a I would guess), but on my attempt where I actually was about to send, I broke off a hold … And now it's super, super hard. I wouldn't say impossible, but definitely too hard for the remaining time …
R&I: What goals do you have for the future?
Same goal as always: Get stronger! And climb some hard stuff!

The suspects in the shooting death of a deputy last week are scheduled to be in court again on June 30.
Four people and a juvenile have been charged in the death of Nash County deputy Warren "Sneak" Lewis, who had worked with a fugitive task force for the past three years.
One of the suspects, 26-year-old Maretto Byrd, was scheduled to appear in court Tuesday on a misdemeanor intoxicative and disruptive charge.
Maretto, his 18-year-old brother Lamont Byrd, 16-year-old Kion Dail, 17-year-old Devine Slade and a juvenile are charged in Lewis' death. There is no word when the next court date is for the juvenile, as those records are not public.
Lamont Byrd, Dail and the juvenile are also charged in the murder of the Thomas Hinton in Kinston. The task force was attempting to serve warrants on the three last week when Lewis was shot at a home on West Lenoir Avenue in Kinston.
Lewis, who was 38, was laid to rest this week. He leaves behind a wife and two children.

WITN has obtained 911 calls and law enforcement radio recordings from June 9, the night a deputy sheriff was shot and killed in Kinston.
Warren "Sneak" Lewis, who worked for the Nash County Sheriff's Office for nine years, was killed. Lewis was part of the U.S. Marshal's Fugitive Task Force working to find suspects wanted in the murder of Thomas Hinton of Kinston.
The lawmen were searching a building in Kinston when someone fired from behind an apartment door, hitting and killing Lewis. The law enforcement radio recording details when someone on the scene declared "officer down" and called for EMS. The exchange continues as dispatch gets the location of the deputy, and the best route to send an ambulance.
Following the shooting, five people holed up inside the apartment where the shots were fired from. Lenoir County released the 911 call from Lamont Byrd, a suspect in the Hinton murder and now in the deputy's death. Byrd alerted the telecommunicator as each suspect came out.
WITN's Brittany Creamer was on the scene that night, and captured video of lawmen dragging Byrd into custody. He was the last to leave the apartment.
Lenoir County released the tapes to WITN Monday, though the tapes were not aired until Tuesday morning, out of respect for the deputy's family on the day of his funeral.

Back for another season ... this contest has been around since 2012 ... who can remember back that far? ... Obama was president ...
Here are the basic rules carried over from last year:
(1) Pick one NFL team each week
(2) You can not pick the same team twice (similar to survivor/knockout)
(3) You receive the number of points equal to what your team scored
(4) Your selection must be logged before kickoff of the game you choose
(5) The Regular Season winner is the person with the most points at the end of the 16-game season
I have a few changes in mind for this season which I hope will only increase the interest and enjoyment.
I'd like those that played last year to weigh in on the changes. Keep in mind that I am trying to sustain interest throughout the season, right to the Super Bowl.
6) Every participant will select one BYE week. You can choose any week you want. You don't need to select that week in advance. If you fail to make a selection by Kickoff time and you have not used your BYE week, then you will automatically get a BYE for that week.
(This change is designed to make it easier for people who are away for a week or forget to make a pick, or maybe just don't like the games that week. Also, it more closely resembles a true NFL season of 16 games).
7) Playoffs! The top 12 participants by points at the end of the regular season will make the playoffs. Then, those 12 people will pick the one real playoff team whose playoff points they want. The regular season winner picks first, the second place finisher picks second and so on. The 12th place finisher is stuck with the last team not chosen. Regular season points do not count toward playoff totals. In case of a tie, the playoff champion will be the team that advances the furthest.
(Realize that teams that play in the wild-card round play an extra game. That's all part of the challenge. Does your team go 1 and done? So, for example, last year's playoff point winner was the Ravens at 124. The Ravens were in the wild-card round. They nearly lost to the Broncos in the 2nd round. So, strategy comes into play ... do you take a wild-card round team with the extra round and hope for a run to the Super Bowl, or do you go with a team that earns a bye that you expect to go all the way?)
In addition there is the optional photo submissions that many folks made each week. 56redsox, TFB12 and others got into the spirit each week last year. The Commissioner (me) will select the best pic each week - no points, just bragging rights.
We've got to have at least 20-25 people signed up for the regular season to make this work. SIGN UP by posting on this thread.
Here's a link to the final thread which crowned the Champion for the 2012 season: AYTEE

G-Technology places a high value on the quality of our products and we want our customers to always expect that our products meet your expectations.
Recently, it has come to our attention that a limited amount of 1TB G-DRIVE and 4TB G-SPEED external hard drives were built using an internal hard drive with incorrect firmware. This firmware causes problems when transferring large files of 30GB or greater. Your data, however, is not affected. Although we estimate that only a few units shipped have this problem, we are now screening all hard drives used in our G-SPEED and G-DRIVE lines to ensure that the correct firmware is used. However, it is possible that some customers may have a unit that experiences this problem.
If you bought either the 1TB G-DRIVE or a 4TB G-SPEED between March and April of 2010, please contact technical support to determine if your drive is affected by this issue. If it is affected, G-Technology will be happy to arrange a replacement of the unit.
Thank you for your continued support of G-Technology.
