Kirby's WagonWritten on November 17, 2005 61 Chevy Nomad
We dealt with the wagon craze back in the late '90s and haven't seen a two-door Malibu wagon for sale or otherwise since. Where did the cool factory wagons go? It dawned on us after talking to Kirby Wilcox that maybe those cars are currently in the finishing stages of total restomodification as his was. If that's true, we're in for a deluge of guys like him and their plush wagons furnished with street machine gear.
Let's go back to 1991 when Kirby sold his '66 Nova and '67 Chevy pickup and got into Harley-Davidsons. For the next 10 years, Kirby spent a fistful of summers riding bikes and never really saw any street machines that turned him on. Then, in 2001, he went to the Back to the '50s show in Des Moines, Iowa, and saw some old wagons. He thought they were kind of fun, so when he got home he started looking on eBay. That's when he found a bone-stock original Nomad in southern Minnesota. It was fully loaded with electric windows and air conditioning representing the top-of-the-line model for that year. Kirby took his bodyman down to take a look, and after paying top dollar, dragged it home.
Kirby knew the car needed a little repair. He started working on it in December of that year, and by the end of January he discovered the body was rotted. The firewall had been eaten away and the undercarriage metal was a mess. It was too late to turn back, because the body shop had the bodywork underway on the doors, and the tailgate and front clip were in primer.
Kirby went back to eBay and bought another car that was sitting on an Indian reservation in Montana. There were bullet holes in the glass, but the roof, quarters, and floor were good. As Kirby tells it, "It looked like hell, but it had a good body shell, and that's what I needed."
When he got the shell back from Montana, he realized it was a Brookwood, not a Nomad, so there were no holes for the chrome trim in the body. He then strayed from the original restoration plan to create a modern custom with early '60s style. That's why it has Nomad chrome window trim and driprails but no side trim.
Kirby still wasn't finished. He wanted a modern fuel-injected drivetrain for the car, so he found a '93 Trans Am donor and pulled the running gear. At the time he didn't realize that the reverse-cooling and Opti-Spark ignition on the LT1 would cause problems in finding aftermarket parts. Street and Performance reprogrammed the ECU, and Tom Sperr, a chopper builder from Kirby's bike days, spliced the factory wiring harness to get it to work. To accompany the LT1 and 4L60-E, Kirby also added a later model 12-bolt instead of the original 10-bolt.
Kirby got the old-wagon bug in 2001 and we're just seeing his car now. How many others are out there in pieces waiting to make their debut? Maybe we're due for another wave of wagon street machines. How about a new Hemi in a '70 Polara wagon?

Car Craft Q&A
Car Craft: Where did you come up with Cactus Green?
Kirby Wilcox: In the '80s I painted my Nova fuchsia to grab attention at car shows. It worked well as a hook because people couldn't believe how cool the color was. Troy Trepanier came out with a mint green Impala a year or so later, so I went home and painted my truck that color. At the time, those kooky colors were the only hook. Now I want the color to be understated and the workmanship on the car to be the hook. I also wanted it to match the theme. Cactus Green is a DaimlerChrylser color used on the Jeep Liberty and it reminded me of an original green from that era so I used it.
CC: What do you think of the airbag suspension?
KW: I like the CoolRide system and it goes down the road very well, but if I had to do it again I would use drop spindles. I used the stock spindles, so I can't lay the crossmember right on the ground at shows. I could do that with a drop spindle and have a little more air in the bag so it rides better when I lift it up to drive. This winter I am going to install the ride-height-on-start system that automatically raises the car to a preset height so I won't have to guess anymore. I've already tortured some parts by getting it wrong.

Kirby likes big stereos, so he had his friend Steve Strobel put together this Pioneer system for him.Kirby has some street rod buddies that influenced the interior. The billet wheel, gauge layout, and shifter go with the license plates that say "9-WINDOW" as a parody of the "3-WINDOW" and "5-WINDOW" Deuce plates that street rods wear.

I'm completely new to linux (sorry for troubling you)!
I installed Fedora Core 4.0 with gnome. I downloaded zcs (free version) onto my windows machine. Burnt it to cd. Extracted it on my Desktop of linux machine and double clicked on install.sh and... nothing happened.
What to do? Since I'm new to linux I wanted to have GUI, is it a problem?

Some actors are known for what they do and others are known for who they associate with. French actress Emmanuelle Seigner was in the news for both. At first people noticed her for her looks, since she was a model before she started acting. However, theater ran in the family: her grandfather, Louis Seigner, was the head of the Comedie Francaise. She was also in the public consciousness due to her marriage to controversial director Roman Polanski, while he lived as a fugitive due to his fleeing jail time in America after his conviction for raping an underage girl.

you must remove the top black castings from the legs first.
They are held together with an adhesive and was told you must either submerge the casting in a large pot of boiling water or use a heat gun and or torch to heat the casting up enough to soften the adhesive that holds your legs inside.
Once its heated up you need to secure the casting in a vice while prying/twisting/hammering/cursing the leg out of the casting.
After that you need to shorten the legs, the exact amount depends on your needs and applications. I would use a grinder with a cut-off wheel (faster)
Or a pipe cutter (slower but nicer cut)
After you get all the legs cut, you need to debur them and use a good metal 2 part epoxy and tap the legs back into the casting with a wooden or rubber mallet.
The peterson kit only comes with instructions and shorter spreader arms, you should be able to shorten the stock ones yourself without too much trouble, i was just going to cut the flat ends with holes off, then remove the amount of metal i needed and weld them back on, but you might be able to just cut them off at the length needed and drill a new hole in them.
I still plan to shrink mine soon- I plan on making it shorter than even the peterson kit can go- in order to add 4" caster wheels to the bottom.
Let me know how things work out for you
heres another pic- I wanted a way shorter setup

TV cameras in days of yore, rated for 400 lbs., but only weigh about 30 lbs or fewer,have dual tip spike and pad leg ends ? I have used them for years,made lots of adapters for mounting big binoculars, ( and have too many tripods). This is the tripod you see on the sidelines at major sports events broadcasts.
The lighter duty, but substantial( particularly when the elevating column is low and locked) Hercules and the elevating Gibraltar ( only 200 lb rated), are not hard to find.

I see that Losmandy now has a folding version of his heavy duty tripod. He (or rather his recent immigrant staff, at least a few years ago) make parallelogram jibs for movie camera support.

thanks for your reply. to be continued.
Posted 23 March 2009 - 05:28 PM
It's not that simple. Once you cut the legs down, you have to make shorter struts for the bottom of the legs since they will be too long. Knocking out the roll pins needs to be done very carefully so you don't break the castings. That's actually the hardest part.
Struts is what I meant - i called them spreaders for a loss of words
This thread made me get the ball rolling- last night I popped the pins out with a hole punch- wasnt bad at all, I have a garage full of bolts and stuff- I think I will just replace the pins with bolts. Not sure if i will just shorten the struts or replace the strut bars with chains.
To the OP....
When I get to removing the castings via heat application- I will let you know which way worked out best for me.

I should have excluded the Hercules and probably its big brother, the rising column Gibraltar, from the comparison. What I said definitely applies to the Houston Fearless style 400 lb. rated types, such as the ITV and the Houston Fearless in the picture. One can literally stand upon and bounce on those. They were made not so much for movie camera use as for microwave telemetry paraboloidal dishes and big, heavy early model studio television cameras in the 1950's and early 1960's.

BCI Searches High School
Administration offices also part of search warrant in Steubenville rape investigation
April 26, 2013
STEUBENVILLE — The ongoing investigation into the Steubenville rape case targeted Steubenville City Schools on Thursday, when Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation agents executed search warrants at......
Don't make it a "Show" investigation. There have been too many stories of cover-ups for them to find nothing. I am sure that people didn't pull them out of thin air. When it first started, some just sit back and laughed, knowing that it would be squashed.

I'm glad that police waited until the rape trial was over before starting all of this, if they would have searched the high school & board of education building back in September they might have actually found something...

The criminals in Stupidville should take the same route that the so-called "community" takes in the Homewood neighborhood in Pittsburgh.
"Gun violence is NOT the fault of our children! White suburban kids are bringing AR15s and M16s into the inner city and trading them for drugs! Without these suburban drug addicts, there wouldn't be any drugs in our community!"

@Ragnar #1 These drug dealers are obtaining guns legally from their suburban "friends" without background checks; thanks NRA & Republicans owned by the NRA.

This is just hilarious. Shouldn't this had been done right after accusations of coaches and other faculty members having knowledge of the crimes? Well..i hope they find what they are looking for but I'm sure any one with any brains has probably already destroyed any evidence so the best hope would be to prove some one destroyed evidence?

It's been a terrible week for justice all around. Sometimes when I say something as casually grandiose as that I am referring to something related to an actual justice system of some kind, while sometimes it's something more related to karma. I am sad to report that this week, it is both.
All three of the things I am thinking about are things that I have already talked about on here, but they've all taken turns for the worse in the last few days and I felt a need to share all the bad news with you all. What can I say, I'm a giver.
Each one of these things is wrong.
If this world made any sense, none of these things would be happening.
Troy Davis should been granted a new trial, or, at the very least, a stay of execution. At the behest of Jimmy Carter, Desmond Tutu and Pope Benedict XVI amongst countless others, the Supreme Court had a chance to put an end to this insanity, but did not upon finding out that it in no way involved passing laws that would help corporations cut our country up a little neater amongst themselves. I find it impossible to believe that if Troy Davis was a white guy that this kind of thing could possibly happen. I'm actually a person who is not completely against the death penalty. I think it's a fairly barbaric and all, still, having seen 1997's "Batman & Robin", I can't say that there aren't a few people in the world who deserve to be killed. I am quite sure, however, that Troy Davis is not one of those people (Just to make sure, I checked to see if he was in any way involved with either of those new "Fantastic Four" movies.
He wasn't.
Kelly Thomas is a significantly more complex story. It's a shame that the guy was killed and it certainly sounds like the officers who are responsible deserve punishment. I can't say much about it, however, because I wasn't there at the time. Do you know who else wasn't there? Kelly Thomas' father, Ron Thomas. Listening to this guy talk about how he wants to personally kill the police who killed his son might make you forget that this is the same former officer who let his son become a deeply troubled homeless man with dirt for clothes in the first place. Kelly Thomas seems like a sad figure and I sincerely hope that justice is eventually served in this case. Real justice, not angry mob justice in the form of political pressure. Despite this, Kelly Thomas' father is being such an annoyance and, dare I say, inappropriate, that I really wish that he'd leave the whole situation alone for a while. If for no other reason, then because it might finally give us all perspective on the whole tragic incident.
Finally, those two assholes in Iran. After writing last month about how there isn't a dank and horrid enough prison for people who are as willfully unrealistic about life as they are, now they are back in the US. Not only are they back in the US, they are doing the press junket about their horrific experience. You know what I think is a horrific experience? Having to listen to those guys trying to rend my sympathy from my cold, dead hands. We know you had a bad time, that's what Iranian prisons are for, especially if you're a pair of Berkeley grad students who thought the best thing you could do with your time would be to go hiking in Iraq near the Iranian border. Hopefully, some lesson has been learned somewhere in this country of ours. Maybe even from those guys who were thrown in jail, but I highly doubt it in their case. They're clearly too far down the "Citizen of humanity" rabbit hole for that. They'll be annoying others by trying to get them to sign petitions in front of Whole Foods in no time flat. To make matters worse, I realize that a million dollars is a proverbial drop in the bucket, but think of all the useful, productive stuff that that money could have been spent on instead of freeing a pair of schmucks from their much-deserved, shall we say, "time abroad". I really hope that these guys really are the spies that the Iranians claimed that they were in the first place. "Self-important Berkeley trust fun babies on a path of self-discovery" is not the best cover I've ever heard, but it could be worse.
To summarize, the country is a worse place than it was a week ago. The innocent (probably) are punished, the guilty (probably) are free and the annoying (absolutely) are free to run wild, sharing the traumatic experiences that they themselves created.
I just don't understand people and I'm starting to think I never will.
Oh, well. At least Michael Vick got his wrist broken by the Giants. That's pretty cool.
All the best to you.

The first night we opened with a martini bar and Mikey, the world's best bartender, willingly served crowds of clients and IBMers that came in to network and kick back. Lots of clients took advantage of the opportunity and filled out reference forms and benefit surveys, earning them some nifty IBM gear that you can buy online at the logo store. If you missed filling out a reference form contact your IBM representative (or myself directly) and we will make sure you get the chance to be a part of the IBM Customer Reference Program.
(Pic on left: IBM clients working on reference forms and benefit surveys)
(Pic on Right: Networking & martinis)
On the second day, the lounge guests were treated to ice cream bars and soda which were pretty much gone by the end of the day :) and I have to admit that I indulged a little!
Day 3 we had chips and soda as well as a steady flow of traffic…see for yourself:
We also had a very special person hanging out at the lounge this year, an IBM Tivoli Case Study Writer Ilana Reynolds. If you are at Pulse next year make sure to check and see if Ilana is there so you can do a case study interview on the spot! Case Studies are a great way for IBM Clients to share their innovative success stories through various outlets on IBM's dollar. They're also a way to have easy access to experts, VIP treatment, and networking opportunities.
If you went to either of the General Sessions (which I hope you did because they were amazing!) you might have heard about a little program called IBM Client Connections (or Client Connect). This is a growing program that started last year to help current and prospective IBM Clients connect in order to help them share insight, problem-solve, get tips and tricks, or explore new avenues as well as network.
Day 2 – 4 of Pulse we had tons of clients come to the lounge specifically looking to meet with other IBM clients, which was very exciting! This year we are working on creating a database that will allow us to set you up with a specific client based on job-level, geography, products/solutions, history, status, industry, you name it! In the meantime if you would like to participate in the IBM Client Connections Program contact me or your IBM rep and we will hook you up.
Here is a pic of some of the connections that were happening in the lounge:
Now I'd like to take a moment to ask for YOUR opinions! Please use the comment section to provide feedback on your lounge experience this year. I want to know what you liked, what you didn't, and anything else you feel like sharing. This info will help us ensure that we provide you the best experience in the coming years at Pulse.
So once again, thank you so much for visiting! If you didn't have the opportunity to stop by the lounge this year make sure you put it on your Pulse 2012 to-do list and I'll see you there! :)

20 Facts About 2010 Chevy Camaro - 20 Things...Written by Johnny Hunkins on July 1, 2009 Contributors: Robert McGaffin ...You Didn't Know About the 2010 Camaro!
Tired of every media outlet spouting the same public relations stuff about the greatest car to come out of Detroit since the Model A? Car manufacturers make it too easy these days. They hand out USB thumb drives with all the standard information, and the newspapers, websites, and magazines regurgitate on command. As well they should because it's important to get out the news about all the technological breakthroughs in this much-anticipated muscle car. But we decided to dig a little deeper to ferret out some details that might make your decision to buy a little easier. Nevertheless, should you still want all the specs and PR boilerplate, we've got it for you in its entirety on www.popularhotrodding.com (search keyword: 2010 Chevrolet Camaro).
When we got invited by Chevrolet to drive the 2010 Camaro back in mid March, we crawled over it with our cameras and notebooks and asked Camaro engineers about the stuff that jumped out at us that wasn't in the media kit. Here are 20 cool things--some good, some bad, and some just plain unusual. As hot rodding moves decidedly into the 21st century, it's clear to us that the 2010 Camaro is leading the pack.
As for driving impressions, we'll leave that to the string-back glove dudes. We'll just say that the Camaro SS has great handling, braking, and power to spare. The price is right, the gearboxes all work beautifully, and it's hands-down the most well-appointed and most comfortable muscle car ever built. But then you already knew that.
All The Specs
For complete specs on the 2010 Camaro and Camaro SS, log on to www.popularhotrodding.com Keyword search: 2010 Chevrolet Camaro.
Four-Bomb Gauge Cluster
Some 2010 Camaros include a gauge cluster with oil pressure (0-70 psi), voltage (0-19 volts), oil temperature (100-300 degrees F), and trans temperature (130-320 degrees F) in the center console. But what if you don't want to pay the extra $2,700 (to upgrade from the 1LT to the 2LT package in the V-6), or $4,200 extra (to upgrade from the 1SS to the 2SS package in the V-8) to get them? It turns out that the gauge cluster will be available from the Chevy dealership as an aftermarket add-on. All the sensors are already installed in the car, and the harness is even pre-terminated in the console. The only other thing you'll need beside the gauges is the jumper wire harness.
Remote Start
All you guys and gals in cold-weather states will be able to order your Camaro with the remote start option. That's not new. What is new is that the remote start receiver is located behind the rearview mirror, and not in the instrument panel where engineers wanted to put it initially. This actually adds to the cost and complexity of the build-out. The reason? Mounting it higher (and disguising it behind a dark tinted area of the windshield) gives it a super-long 300-foot transmission radius. Try that with your fancy Lexus!
Fake Scoop
We poked around the front fascia of the new Camaro looking for a way to make this cool-looking scoop functional, but it deadheads into the radiator and core support, and cannot be made functional for any reasonable amount of money. The stillborn Z/28 with the Cadillac version of the LS9 (with 556 hp) would've had a hood-mounted scoop with functional ram air.
Rearend Swap
Planning on bulking up the horsepower under the hood of your Camaro SS, say with a blower, or an LSX454 crate motor? You'll need a stronger rearend and axles to go with that. You might be tempted to swap in the rear from the Cadillac CTS-V, which has the de-tuned LS9 (556 hp) from the ZL-1 Corvette. Unfortunately, the Camaro's rearend is made by American Axle, not ZF (like the Caddy's), and is not interchangeable. Those of you planning on big horsepower upgrades will need to go with custom axles and control arms. Had GM pulled the trigger on the more powerful Z/28, it would simply be a matter of bolting in the extra Z/28 beefcake with factory part numbers.
Trunk Lock
There is no exterior lock cylinder for the trunk, not even hidden under the Chevy Bowtie emblem, so don't accidentally run your battery down. Your keyfob is the only way to enter the trunk from the outside. If you do run your battery down, you'll need to unlock the door manually, crawl in the back seat, flip down the seat back, reach into the trunk, and pull the emergency trunk release ripcord. You know, the glow-in-the-dark thing your kid gets to use when he misbehaves and you gotta stuff him in the trunk.
Spare Tire
The Camaro has no spare tire, but it does have this nice electric air compressor mounted in a Styrofoam form fitted inside the spare tire well in the trunk. The compressor actually has two nozzles; one hose feeds pressurized tire-repair goo through a clear tube, the other pumps regular air. Make sure you don't get the two mixed up and accidentally fill your kid's floaty toys with sealing goo!
Trunk-Mount Battery
The battery is mounted where the spare tire normally goes--in the trunk at the bottom of the spare tire well. This helps give the Camaro an near ideal 52/48 weight distribution. Chevy provides a positive power terminal under the hood for charging and jump starting, so unless you physically need to change the battery, you can access it from under the hood.
Single Hood Strut
Until now, Camaros had two gas-filled hood struts. (Mustangs have a cheaper prop rod.) The 2010 Camaro has a single gas-filled hood strut, which saves weight, cost, and makes underhood maintenance just a bit easier too. We also noticed that the 2010 Camaro's hood is smaller and lighter than the fourth-gen hood, which is all good.
Secondary Door Striker
There is a primary and secondary door striker on both of the Camaro's doors--one in the normal place you'd expect, and a second one at the base of the B-pillar. The story behind it is intriguing. In order to preserve the Camaro concept car's long hood, engineers moved the front axle of the Zeta II platform forward 6 inches. Meantime, Chevy decided that they wanted the production Camaro to exceed Federal crash standards, and earn a five-start crash rating from the insurance institute. This required passing an extra side-impact test (not part of the federal test), the position of which is an arbitrary distance behind the front axle centerline. Since the Camaro's front axle is so far forward relative to other cars, the test's impact point was found to be not in the normal place--the B-pillar--but in the center of the door! Adherence to a styling principle, in this case, actually created a safer car.
Air Inlet Resonators
What's up with all the goofy warts and tubes on the inlet duct for the Camaro SS V-8? These are known as Helmholtz resonators, and help the Camaro pass federal drive-by noise standards, and to reduce unwanted resonances in the induction. They have to be different sizes and shapes to target different frequencies at different levels of attenuation. For a given atmospheric pressure, the longer the resonator, the lower the affected frequency. To attenuate a frequency (reduce its loudness) the length will be a multiple of the affected wavelength. Also, the wider the aperture, the greater the attenuation at that frequency. These two photos show three different Helmholtz resonators which target three specific frequencies.
Console USB Port
There's nothing new about MP3 compatibility. For years, you've been able to jack your iPod or MP3 player into most stereo systems with a simple 1/8-inch stereo phone jack. Some newer cars will even let you plug your iPod or MP3 player in through a USB port, so you can simultaneously play tunes while charging your player. The Camaro takes it a step further. You can load all your tunes on a simple USB flash drive--not an expensive player--and the Camaro's audio system will read the MP3 file right off the drive. USB flash drives are dirt cheap: a 1 gig jump drive--enough to hold about 20 CDs worth of material--costs about $7. Even better: the Camaro's USB port is out of the way in the back of the center console.
The V-6 Miracle
In strict engineering terms, the 3.6L direct injection V-6 in the Camaro is the Immaculate Conception of powertrains. It makes 304 hp with two fewer cylinders than a GT Mustang's mill, and does it on 87 octane with an 11.3:1 compression ratio, while pulling down 29 mpg on the highway. The only reason tree huggers don't like it is that Chevy stuffed it in a car that looks too cool for them. Don't, however, expect to go hunting Mustang GTs with it. In spite of what gung-ho PR types want you to believe, the extra 200 pounds of curbweight and 52 fewer lb-ft of torque will keep a V-6 Camaro comfortably in the still-inexpensive GT's rearview mirror.
Paddle Shifters That Work!
The week before the Camaro drive, I spent a horrid day trying to manually tap-shift a manual-matic BMW 3 Series through an autocross. (Don't ask.) It couldn't stay in the gear I selected to save its arrogant Teutonic life. The same goes for the Dodge Challenger's five-speed AutoStick. Chevy has rectified the problem with the Camaro; all automatic six-speeds come with paddle shifters, and when you slide the shifter into "Manual," it stays in the gear you put it in, and damn the torpedoes. Bravo Chevrolet! You will, without reservation, be able to autocross or road race an automatic Camaro.
No Nav System
The biggest "oops!" moment in the Camaro design process was the omission of any nav system upgrade. Instead, you have the option of paying for OnStar, and using OnStar's turn-by-turn audible directions, which are supplemented by arrow indicators on the driver display. To get turn-by-turn directions, you need a subscription to the Directions and Connections plan, which costs $299 per year (versus $199 for the basic Safe and Sound program). Summit Racing has a really nice private-label GPS system for $149 (part No. SUM-900151B) that ought to get the job done.
Humongous Quarter Stamping
OK, you probably heard about this one: the Camaro's rear quarter-panel stamping is almost 10 feet long, and encompasses the rear quarter panel, the C-pillar, roofline, and A-pillar. It is the deepest stamping draw GM has ever attempted, and the stamping die was designed 113 times before it was finally right. (Stampings this complex often tear or wrinkle the metal long before it reaches its final shape, so this represents a technical and styling milestone.) The continuous panel eliminates many gaps and seams, creating one smooth, gorgeous body contour.
Switchblade Key
We believe Volkswagen--the only auto company to turn a profit in 2008--provided the inspiration for the Camaro's switchblade key. Other than the relatively minor difference between the push buttons, it's identical to the VW key. We pressed GM designers about the uncanny resemblance, and they told us: "It's our own design." We don't care where the idea came from, or who did it first, we just dig impressing the neighborhood kids by popping the button.
Keep repeating: it's not a Volkswagen key, it's not a Volkswagen key... The push button switchblade key is cool though, no matter what car it starts.
Steering Wheel Really Round!
This has been bugging us for a long time, and we know it's crossed your mind too. We've only had studio shots of the Camaro and Camaro concept to go on for the last three years, and all that time we thought the steering wheel was either egg-shaped, or there was some weird Photoshop action going. It turns out, it was an optical illusion created by the center hub of wheel being an inch and a half lower than the actual center of the wheel. In both shots, we're pointing to the actual pivot point for the center of the wheel.
It's not an optical illusion--the Camaro's steering wheel really is round. Not only that, it doesn't wobble when you turn it. As the photos show, it does rotate around a central axis, which is not in the center of the hub like you expect it to be.
GM Performance Division
The 2010 Camaro SS gets the coveted GM Performance Division badge under the hood, signifying that it was engineered and developed by an elite group of power-hungry speed demons in Warren, Michigan. The Camaro SS, however, will be the swan song for GMPD--the same people who rebuilt Project X--as the ber-division was officially disbanded in February, right after Detroit's execs were hauled in front of congress for their bailout hearings. Those who buy a 2010 Camaro SS will be getting a small piece of history right under the hood, attached to the radiator core support. These plaques will be collector's items sooner than we'd like.
Shift Pattern Warning!
Can't wait to get to the dealership and test drive a manual six-speed? Heed this warning: Do not test drive a manual trans V-6 Camaro after test driving a manual trans Camaro SS. We almost wrecked $60,000 worth of Camaros, so we're not joking. Both V-6 and V-8 Camaros have six-speed manual transmissions. Reverse gear on the V-8 is in the normal place--to the right and up. On the V-6 (which sports an Aisin-built gearbox instead of the Tremec), Reverse is to the left, and up--that's exactly where First is on the SS. Driving the V-6 after a long day behind the wheel of an SS, we almost front-ended the Camaro behind us--twice--on a steep uphill after waiting for a green light. Doh! Can we suggest a reverse lock-out ring for future V-6 models?
Look hard. The manual shift patterns are very similar between V-6 and V-8 Camaros, but with one really minor--and potentially very dangerous--difference. Never was there a better argument for a reverse lock-out on the V-6.
Bye-Bye Z/28
With GM Performance Division disbanded and all its employees reassigned to other divisions, the Z/28 super Camaro program has been cancelled. According to the Chevy executives we spoke to, the Z/28's engineering, validation, and component sourcing was already completed when the plug was pulled. Don't blame Chevy though. The timing couldn't have been worse; with bailout hearings in Washington, D.C., and public scorn for executives flying around in Lear jets, the Z/28 was a "shameful" car that GM couldn't be seen building in the current environment. The Z/28 would've had the supercharged, intercooled 556hp LS9 from the Cadillac CTS-V, along with a beefed up drivetrain, functional ram-air hood, SS stripes, and huge cohones.

Written By the Atlantic Coast Conference
GREENSBORO, N.C. - North Carolina sophomore guard Marcus Paige is the unanimous choice as the Atlantic Coast Conference Basketball Player of the Week, while Duke forward Jabari Parker earned his third ACC Rookie of the Week honor of the young season.
Paige scored a combined 58 points in wins over Richmond and third-ranked Louisville as UNC won the Hall of Fame Tip-off Tournament in Uncasville, Conn. The Marion, Iowa native established a career scoring high with 26 points in semifinals against Richmond, then broke that mark with 32 points in the championship game vs. Louisville.
Paige, who received the vote of every member of the ACC Player of the Week media panel, became the first Tar Heel with 25 points in consecutive games since Harrison Barnes in 2011. He combined to shoot of 15-of-25 from the floor, 9-of-14 from 3-point range and 19-of-20 from the free-throw line. Against Richmond, Paige broke a 56-all tie with a 3-pointers and added two more 3s in the final seven minutes to lead UNC to victory. Paige scored 17 first-half points and 15 in the second half against Louisville. His efforts helped North Carolina shoot better than 50 percent from the floor in both halves versus the defending national champion Cardinals.
Duke's Parker was named the ACC Rookie of the Week after he scored 20 or more points in all three Duke games on the week to become the first freshman since Eric Gordon (Indiana) in 2007-08 to top the 20-point mark in the first six games of his career. Parker averaged 22.7 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.7 blocks and 1.3 steals per game in guiding the Blue Devils to wins over UNC Asheville, East Carolina and Vermont. He shot 57.4 percent (27-of-47) from the field and grabbed 14 offensive rebounds in the three contests.
The Chicago native opened the week with a double-double (21 points, 10 rebounds) against the Bulldogs. He followed up with 21 points, nine rebounds, two assists and six blocked shot in the win over East Carolina. Parker came up with three key blocks in the final five minutes of play against the Pirates to help secure the win for the Blue Devils. In Sunday's win over Vermont, Parker scored a game-high 26 points on 11-of-16 shooting, while adding nine rebounds (five offensive boards) and two steals. He was at his best during a tight second half, scoring 19 points on 8-of-9 shooting.

Three Naturals among 10 players on Topps Double-A All-Star Team
A total of ten players at the Double-A level were chosen on Tuesday for the Topps Double-A All-Star Team.
Out of the 30 teams, the Royals were the lone franchise with more than one player to be honored…they had three! First baseman Clint Robinson, second baseman Johnny Giavotella and third baseman Mike Moustakas made up 75 percent of the infield on the squad.
Robinson, 25, hit .335 with 29 homers and 98 RBIs to capture the Triple Crown in the Texas League. He also led the league with 41 doubles and his 1.035 OPS was tops in Double-A. The Royals drafted Robinson in the 25th round out of Troy University in 2007.
Giavotella, 23, led the Texas League with 168 hits and 92 runs. He finished second behind Robinson with a .322 average. Giavotella was K.C.'s second round pick in 2008 out of the University of New Orleans.
Moustakas, 22, was named the Player of the Year in the Texas League for hitting .347 with 76 RBIs in just 66 games. He finished the year with a combined 36 home runs at Northwest Arkansas and Omaha. Moustakas was the second overall pick in 2007.

Prior to using Zimbra we used service-based hostnames, i.e. imap.company.com, smtp.ixico.com, webmail.company.com. I would like to continue doing this but obviously this will cause some problems with the ssl certificates. I can sort out the postfix one, but the tomcat service ones are a problem. As far as I can see there are three options:
1 - Configure tomcat to use separate certificates for the different services, based on the connection port - I don't think there's any (reasonably straight forward) way to do this though..?
2 - Get a certificate with AlternativeNames for the other hostnames, but I can't see any reference to this in the forums or Wiki - would this work? If so how do I go about creating the csr?
3 - Get a wildcard certificate. This seems the most likely to work but will be the most expensive. There are also issues with Windows mobile clients. If I just create the csr with cn= *.company.com will that work? I've seen a few references to this in the forums but no definite statement that it will be ok - I'd be grateful if someone could confirm.
Are there any other ideas I haven't thought of?

Workshop topics will include:
- eScience in the Cloud
- New Advances in Digital Humanities
- Semantics in Action
- Environmental Informatics
- Is NUI Natural for Scientists?

May 31, 2016
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The federal government is legally barring a Michigan company from selling medical devices used in heart surgery, following years of quality control problems at company facilities.
The Food and Drug Administration says it signed a permanent injunction with Terumo Cardiovascular Systems and two executives that bars them from making or distributing heart-lung bypass systems. The devices are used to circulate blood during chest surgery.
Terumo agreed to pay $35 million in back profits from the sale of its devices.
Last March, FDA inspectors reported more than a dozen quality control violations at the company's plant in Ann Arbor. The company was cited for similar problems in 2004 and 2006.
The FDA said it is not recalling Terumo's products from the market because of concerns about a shortage of the machines.

(SportsNetwork.com) - The Miami Heat will try to extend their winning streak
to six games when they wrap up a home-and-home set with the Orlando Magic.
Miami handed Orlando a 120-92 loss in the Magic Kingdom on Wednesday and was
led by LeBron James' 21 points, seven assists and six rebounds. James Jones
got 17 points and Michael Beasley 14 off the bench for Miami, which shot 51.4
percent for the game and 62.5 percent from 3-point range (15-of-24).
"We find a way to stay engaged and stay sharp," Jones said of coming off the
bench. "My team expects me to come out here and do this when it's asked of
The Heat started the game on a 16-0 run and the 28-point triumph was their
largest against the Magic in the team's history. None of Miami's starters
played in the fourth quarter. Heat guard Dwyane Wade missed his second
consecutive game with a sore knee and is probable versus the Magic.
The Heat have won three in a row at home and are 6-1 in south Florida. Their
bench play has been potent recently and is posting an average of 45.7 points
in the last three games.
Miami has yet to trail during the fourth quarter in all nine of its wins.
Meanwhile, James has scored in double-figures in 507 consecutive games, one
shy of matching Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Abdul-Jabbar scored 10-plus points in 508
games from Oct. 18, 1969 - Jan. 7, 1976.
Phoenix is scheduled to visit Miami on Monday.
The Magic have lost two in a row and five of six games, and were led by Arron
Afflalo's game-best 30 points on Wednesday. Victor Oladipo and Jameer Nelson
scored 20 and 17 points, respectively, for Orlando, which shot 40.8 percent
and committed 24 turnovers, leading to 30 Miami points.
Orlando was outrebounded by a 40-25 margin.
"We're not happy we lost by this many points and we want to do better than we
did tonight the next time we play them," Magic center Nikola Vucevic said. "I
think we can play them better because we played them well last year. We just
have to play better, especially on the defensive end."
Afflalo has either led or tied the team in scoring eight times this season for
Orlando, which is 0-4 on the road.
The Magic, who suffered that aforementioned loss at home to the Heat on
Wednesday, have lost six straight and seven of the last eight encounters with
Orlando has lost four straight and five of its last six trips to the shores of
Biscayne Bay.

I will be heading down to KC in a couple of weeks and would like some suggestions on a few good BBQ places. I have ate at Jack Stacks before and was not impresses with the quality of food for what I had to pay. Anyone know of any good locally owned places?
Oklahoma joes
I haven't been down to KC in a while however, my best friend goes down there a couple of times a year and they swear by Arthur Bryant's BBQ.
Yeah TOAST!!!
Jack Stack is all about what you get.
The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come.

I love Jack Stack, I just don't get the appeal for Bryant's.
Gates has hands down the best BBQ. I would rate them.
Arthur Bryants
Famous Daves
KC Masterpiece
Jack Stack
Gates is affordable and plentiful. It is a counter place so don't expect to sit down and order. They do have beer if you feel (Like Me) that BBQ is best complimented with it.
I see the usual suspects have been rattled off.
Try LC's. It's in a scary place. It has bars on the windows.
They've got the best burnt ends I've had.
Across the menu, Oklahoma Joe's for the win.
At Gates it is the burnt end on a bun. That is great, but never been a fan of much of the rest of the menu. Both places are counter service, nothing fancy.
Personally I like Jack Stack, but if it isn't your thing, plenty of other options. I found Arthur Bryants okay, but with the other options in town I wouldn't seek it out.
Is there a KC Masterpiece even open anymore? The only one I knew about was off I435 and Metcalf in Overland Park, and that shut down about a year ago.
Arthur Bryant's is excellent

That is my ranking exactly. All 3 are great though.
"Dog Eat Dog"
Read the news
Someone win,
Someone lose
Thanks for all the imput. Now I will just have to find out where these places are at.
This should cover the locations of Arthur Bryants, Oklahoma Joes, Gates and even LC's... I haven't had the chance to get to Gates or LC's yet, but I would put Oklahoma Joes above Arthur Bryant's based upon my experience thus far.

Slade delighted with Sawyer deal
15:09 14 May 2012
EMPICS Sport
Defender pens a two-year contract
Orient manager Russell Slade is delighted with his first signing of the summer and believes that Gary Sawyer will solve the problematic left-back position.
Slade has signed the 26-year-old defender from Bristol Rovers on a two-year deal and admitted: "We needed a left-back and so I'm pleased to get things sorted out.
"Gary could also go to centre-half in an emergency - but he's mainly a left-back. He's a wholehearted player and is steady. He is similar to Tony Craig - he's that sort of player.
"He's played 100 games for Plymouth in the Championship and he has been on the radar for a while.
"He only played 27 games last season - but that was because he had a double hernia operation at the start of the season, which kept him out. He is the sort of player that will play 35 to 40 games a season. He's six-foot tall, left-footed and will do a job for us."
Slade insists that he still has three more main targets - but admits it's a case of juggling resources.
"With the capping coming in we are restricted financially and it will affect everyone if clubs follow the letter of the law," he said,
"We're trying to do things properly and it's a difficult juggling act - but we needed to get a left-back in and that's why we have bagged that up first."

Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - C.J. Watson scored all 16 of his points in the
second half behind 4-of-4 shooting from behind the arc to wake up the sluggish
Brooklyn Nets in their 94-88 comeback win over the Toronto Raptors.
Joe Johnson led Brooklyn with 23 points, while Andray Blatche added 14
points and nine rebounds to help halt the club's five-game losing streak,
which included a three-point loss to the Knicks on Tuesday.
The Raptors weren't playing the second game of a back-to-back like the Nets,
but they were limited with the injuries to starters Andrea Bargnani (elbow)
and Kyle Lowry (triceps) and because of Amir Johnson's suspension.
Ed Davis paced Toronto with 24 points and 12 rebounds, while Jose Calderon
added 10 points and 15 assists in the loss.

Is there a way to remove the restriction of allowed emails to be viewed per page?
Outlook for instance allows a user to be able to see every single email just by scrolling through.
Zimbra seems to have pages you must navigate to making it tedious to search through emails especially if you don't know who it was from or what it was about. Plus there is a limit to 100 per page.
This makes things difficult when someone may receive anywhere between 2000 - 3000 emails per day.
Is there a solution to this?

|Colorado moves forward with gun-control laws
|Written by Kyle Arnoldy
Governor John Hickenlooper, on March 20, signed a series of monumental gun-control bills for Colorado that expands background checks, requires gun purchasers to pay for the fees of background checks and limits ammunition magazines to no more than 15 rounds.
Generally, the restrictive gun laws are more aligned with laws of states from the Northeast as opposed to Western states.
The laws, which will go into effect July 1, essentially divide Colorado into two groups; those who see the restrictions as clear violations of their second-amendment rights and those who see the laws as necessary progressive steps to ensure safety for generations to come.
Law enforcement is also divided on the topic.
Several Colorado sheriffs have argued that the new laws are impossible to enforce and some have flatly stated that they will not enforce them.
Recently The Denver Post reported that 37 of Colorado's 62 elected sheriffs plan to pursue legal action to overturn the laws regarding background checks. They are also against the magazine limits but have chosen not to include that particular law in the lawsuit.
Holyoke Police Chief Doug Bergstrom explained that he personally believes the difficulty with pursuing these new laws can be attributed to the reactive nature of the laws.
In most circumstances, the gun would have to be involved in an incident, prompting authorities to track down the owner and determine if a background check was performed.
Failure to perform the background check could lead to a class 1 misdemeanor charge with a presumptive range of 6-18 months behind bars and a fine of $500-$5,000.
Meanwhile the Colorado Association of Police Chiefs have come out in support of magazine restrictions.
Bergstrom noted that the difficulty in enforcing the magazine limit law stems from determining the purchase date of the magazine.
While it will become illegal in July to purchase magazines that hold more than 15 rounds, those that are already in possession of these high capacity magazines are still within their legal rights so long as they do not try to sell or transfer the magazine to anyone else.
"I don't make the laws, I just enforce them," Bergstrom said. "On a personal note, I don't necessarily agree with them, but I will enforce them."
First offenders found guilty of purchasing magazines that hold more than 15 rounds after July 1 can face a class 2 misdemeanor charge that includes a presumptive range of 3-12 months in jail and a $250-$1,000 fine.
Class 1 misdemeanor will be assessed to those who violate the law a second time.
If the violation occurs during a felony act or crime of violence, a class 6 felony will be assessed. Class 6 felonies include a presumptive range of 6-18 months in jail and a fine between $1,000 and $100,000.
Law enforcement entities are exempt from the magazine limits.
Those who have openly supported the limit claim that, in cases such as the Aurora shooting, if the suspect would have had to stop and reload multiple times, it would have made it possible for more people to escape or given time for someone to stop the shooter. The law may not stop murderers, but it may limit the damage they cause.
President Obama has applauded Colorado as he continues to push for even more gun restrictions at the national level that could lead to an assault weapons ban.
Those opposing the bills have argued that the restrictions punish law-abiding gun owners and will be ineffective in preventing crimes while those in favor of the laws argue that setting more restrictions will make it more difficult for criminals to obtain the tools of their trade.
Steve Deaver, a local licensed gun dealer, does not agree with the new laws and believes they will not deter any criminal activity. He finds it hard to believe that criminals who obviously show no regard for human life would be affected by misdemeanor laws.
He noted that those who are selling guns to family members or to friends may choose to skip the $10 fee for a background check.
"If you have two decent, law-abiding citizens that are willing to ignore the law, what makes anybody think that criminals are going to abide by it?" Deaver asked.
With the newly established laws in Colorado and the lingering possibility of nation-wide bans, Deaver has seen the impact within his business.
"There has definitely been an increase in people buying firearms since Hickenlooper signed those laws," Deaver explained. "I think it stems from the fear that they may not be able to in the near future."
Deaver also expressed his concern with the rush to buy guns. He has seen an increase of buyers who are inexperienced with guns. He has recently refused to sell to these types of people because he sees it as a safety concern.
Many have also argued that while gun laws may be a step in the right direction, pinpointing them as the end-all solution to stop future tragedies ignores the mental condition of those committing the heinous crimes.
While there may be no definitive solution to prevent gun violence, it is impossible to deny the fact that Colorado is changing.

LILBURN, Ga. -- Community activist Tia Severino attempted to raise concerns about a long-running but little-known crematory operating in the city of Lilburn, but was not allowed to speak during the public comment portion of Monday's city council meeting.
"I think the public has the right to know," Severino shouted as Mayor Johnny Crist threatened to have the police chief remove her from the council chambers.
According to the Secretary of State's website, Colonial Cremation Services has operated at its Lawrenceville Highway location at least since 2003. But it's very existence has remained a well-kept secret.
There's no sign on the street advertising its presence. In fact, the only visible storefront belongs to a company named, "Unique Kitchen, Bath & Flooring." The crematory operates out of the back of the building it shares with the flooring business.
According the Secretary of State's website, the crematory is owned by Bill Head who runs a funeral home in Tucker. Repeated calls to Head for comment were not returned.
Severino says she believes there's been a concerted effort to conceal the crematory's existence from the public. She says she worries about the potential health impact on a nearby middle school and neighborhood.
Severino says she believes the city council and community should discuss if a crematory should be located so close to a residential neighborhood.

Bas Rutten and Kevin James have worked together for years on the mats, and a few times in front of the camera.
But when it came to putting Rutten in James' upcoming movie "Here Comes the Boom," studio executives needed some convincing.
"I'm not a fighter in this movie, so that's why they were more scared," Rutten told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).
James stars in the MMA-themed movie as a teacher who becomes a fighter to raise money for his ailing school. Rutten reprises a real-life role as his trainer.
Rutten, of course, has played the role of fighter since his 20s, once winning the UFC heavyweight title. He retired in 1999 to pursue a film career and scored roles on TV and straight-to-DVD movies. (A one-time-only comeback came in 2006.) But for the role of "Niko" in the major studio release, which opens in U.S. theaters on Oct. 12, James' endorsement wasn't enough for a stamp of approval. He needed to submit video proof that he could act.
Rutten, who also appeared in the recent James vehicle "Paul Blart: Mall Cop" and as the voice of a wolf in James' "Zookeeper," showed executives his work in "The Eliminator," a straight-to-DVD action movie, and a short film, "The Kingdom of Ultimate Power," which won first prize for "Best Comedy" at the 2005 New York Film Festival.
Thankfully, they were convinced.
"Fighting is easy; every mixed martial artist, or every professional fighter for that matter, can do the fighting scenes," Rutten said. "When you're a fighter, you're automatically not considered to be a great actor, and you've got to overcome that."
Still, he said there were times when James, who's best known for his sitcom "The King of Queens," was so convincing that he forgot his lines.
"He totally threw me off," Rutten said. "I wanted to change my lines during the scene. I started feeling sorry for him."
Rutten said audiences will be thrown off when they see James, who has slimmed from his portly days on "King of Queens" to a svelte 218 pounds.
"I think people will be amazed when you see him do the focus mitt work and the way he moves," Rutten said. "A lot of professional fighters are going to, 'Holy (expletive).' They're going to be happily surprised. He doesn't like me to say this, but I want to see another actor who can do what he does.
"I have students that when they kick really hard I say, 'That was a really good kick.' They always think I just say that. I would never do that; I would never give you a false sense of security. But I would work with him and come back and tell my wife, 'Wow, he picks up fast.' You teach him something, and he listens. He's got very good motor skills, and he's like a bear – he's very powerful and strong. And he's a funny dude on top of that. It's a motivational comedy."
Rutten said James was living in a one-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles with his brother when they met. A lot has changed since then, but the two still share a love of MMA. James' transition from the small to big screen provided the perfect opportunity for them to work together again.
"I had a really good experience," Rutten said. "[The movie is] very well-written. They have really good ways to get [Kevin] to the end."

CEVA, Ryder expand relationship with addition of more than 1,000 leased trailers
June 21, 2011
A pretty big relationship between global third-party logistics (3PL) services provider CEVA Logistics and freight transportation and logistics services provider Ryder got even bigger with week, with the companies announcing that CEVA has added more than 1,000 full service lease trailers from Ryder.
CEVA officials said these trailers have been added to support its domestic U.S. ground business and its CEVA Ground and Freight Management units and secure strategic options for additional capacity growth.
The company's fleet is comprised of nearly 4,700 trailers in roughly 200 locations, and its ground transportation services include full and less-than-truckload (LTL), dedicated fleet services, intermodal marketing and transportation brokerage services.
"There are several reasons for signing this lease with Ryder, including advantageous maintenance options, improved fuel efficiency aligned with our sustainability efforts and enhanced service for our customers," a CEVA spokesman told LM. "CEVA's strategy is to develop a more standardized fleet with specifications like side skirts, low rolling resistance tires, satellite tracking and tire inflation systems, among several other features that are appealing to our customers."
He added that this deal enables CEVA to provide a newer, more reliable fleet for its customers across all industries including automotive, technology, consumer, energy and industrial.
CEVA also said that since its relationship with CEVA was established nearly 30 years ago, it has expanded to more than 200 power units. And earlier this year CEVA renewed its contract with Ryder for 1,044 trailers, bringing its total number of vehicles under lease with Ryder to more than 1,244.
This is part of a 10-year contract in which Ryder will provide a dedicated fleet coordinator leveraging GPS to track trailer movements, with the fleets being served via "mobile maintenance" at CEVA' seven North America-based hubs.
When asked what the biggest competitive advantages of this deal are for CEVA, the spokesman said that the full-maintenance lease is a key advantage of this agreement with Ryder. And by transferring the maintenance obligation from internal operations to Ryder, he said CEVA can rely on Ryder's professional expertise and focus our efforts on its core competencies.
"Ryder values its relationship with CEVA and is pleased to support the fleet requirements of such a highly respected company," said Robert Sanchez, Ryder's President of Global Fleet Management, in a statement. "We look forward to providing viable options for them now and into the future to support their growth."

To learn to read is to light a fire;
every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.
– Victor Hugo
At one magical instant the page of a book –
that string of confused, alien ciphers–shivered into meaning.
Words spoke to you, gave up their secrets; at that moment,
whole universes opened.
You became, irrevocably, a reader.
– Alberto Manguel
Everywhere I go in the world, I see young and old,
rich and poor, reading books.
Whether readers are engaged in the sacred or the secular,
they are, for a time, transported to another world.
We are familiar with words describing images, but not so
familiar with images describing words and the
impact reading has on our lives.
Garrett Stewart's book, The Look of Reading:
Book, Painting, Text, explores the relationship of
reading and art.He points out that a wide array of artists from Rembrandt to Picasso and Cassatt
and dozens more,over the past 500 years
have painted people reading and the "look of reading" on the subjects' faces.
Moscow, Russia
We read to know we are not alone.
– C.S. Lewis
A great book that comes from a great thinker
is a ship of thought, deep freighted with truth and beauty.
– Pablo Neruda
Books are the plane, and the train, and the road.
They are the destination, and the journey.
They are home.
– Anna Quindlen
I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.
– Jorge Luis Borges
There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!
– Emily Dickinson
Reading is everything.
Reading makes me feel like I've accomplished something,
learned something, become a better person.
Reading makes me smarter.
Reading gives me something to talk about later on…
Reading is grist. Reading is bliss.
– Nora Ephron
Reading is the sole means by which we slip, involuntarily, often helplessly,
into another's skin, another's voice, another's soul.

HOWARD COUNTY, Md. (WUSA) -- Howard County Police are asking for help from the public in their search for a missing elderly man.
Police say Charles Turner's family reported him missing around 9:30 Sunday night. He was last seen by a family member around 4:00 p.m. when he left his house in the 8800 block of Bosley Road in Ellicott City. Mr. Turner claimed he would be right back, but has yet to return home.
According to police, Turner is 5' 11" tall, 210 pounds, and bald. When he left his home he was wearing khaki pants, a navy t-shirt, and a burgundy sweater. Mr. Turner drives a light green 2005 Lexus SUV with Maryland tags DV3482. Police say he was last seen driving the SUV around 10:00 p.m. Sunday near Route 32 in Ft. Meade, Anne Arundel County.
Police are especially concerned about Mr. Turner's welfare because he has been diagnosed with dementia and he doesn't usually drive at night. Mr. Turner does not have a cell phone and needs to take multiple medications. Howard County Police have issued a Silver Alert to expedite locating Charles Turner. Anyone with information on his whereabouts should contact 911.

The util/utilfunc.sh has a bug, when it tries to parse the /etc/hosts to verify the format
in the lines 229 and 230:
if ! cat /etc/hosts | \
230 perl -ne 'if (/^\s*\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+\s+(\S+)/ && !/^\s*127\.0\.0\.1/) { my @foo = split (/\./,$1); if ($#foo == "0") {exit 11;} }';
Of course it can't guess (well, maybe it can) which one of /etc/hosts is my ip/hostname. Well I had my hosts like:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
10.0.0.1 my.fully.qualified.name my # this is my ip
10.0.0.2 machinesimplename #this is another machine
10.0.0.3 machinesimplename2 #this is another machine
184.108.40.206 machinesimplename3 #this is another machine
My IP does have the fully qualified name, but the other ones don't. Zimbra doesn't need them for anything, but kept complaining until I write (fake!) full hostname to everyone.

Ian Bremmer Talks Global Politics and Investing Pitfalls

Gospel legend Rance Allen will perform tonight in a big concert in Meridian. He, along with a packed roster, will take to the stage at the Temple Theater starting at 7 PM. Newscenter 11 spoke with Allen earlier Friday on Good Morning Meridian about what the audience can expect.
"If you come to this concert you will leave spiritually blessed, energized and made to understand that true happiness comes from the inside rather than what takes place on the outside," says Allen.
The concert starts tonight at 7. Tickets are $25 in advance and can be purchased at the box office.

A skin care regimen is a very practical activity: Women who are serious about keeping their skin looking its best want to choose the product that is most effective. Retriderm provides a simple, powerful therapy to delivery an important, basic requirement for skin health. Vitamin A is, of course, a fundamental, basic building block of skin. In its active bioavailable form (that is, in a way that the body can absorb and use the vitamin), it is called a retinol or retinoid; Retriderm provides this vitamin in an especially useful way.
Inside the skin tissue, vitamin A stimulates collagen production and promotes a healthy skin cell turnover. In practical terms, this means that the skin has a firmer, smoother appearance as the supporting collagen tissues are strengthened and healthy new cells are constantly presented to the surface. The problem is that, in many forms, retinoids can have drying and irritating side-effects when applied to the skin. Retriderm formulas rely on a proprietary delivery system of an oil-free, protein-rich aqueous (water-based) suspension that is easily absorbed and effective.
The Retriderm brand is backed by both nature and science, making it an ideal brand for your skin. This company relies on vitamin A, which is well known for its production of skin cells, a task that can help fight both aging and sun damage. Using a bioavailable form of vitamin A known as Retinol, the Retriderm line of products trusts this ingredient along with other proven ones such as collagen, elastin, vitamin E, and hyaluronic acid to create serums that deliver a variety of benefits for your skin. While nature might have created many of these ingredients, Retriderm's scientific research has helped to prove that they are highly effective. The company has world-renowned dermatologists test and use the products to ensure they are both safe and effective. Even more, clinical studies have revealed that Retriderm's line of serums can improve your skin in as little as four weeks. Skin improvements that you may see include softer wrinkles, tighter skin, fewer pigmented areas, and a brighter complexion.
Adhering to the slogan "Vitamin A with Attitude," Retriderm features a patent-pending formula. These protein-rich serums come in the "Retriderm Range," which includes retinol-based serums in different strengths. If you're using retinol for the first time, you might opt for the weaker formula. However, if you're a Retriderm loyalist who has experienced the success of these products firsthand, your skin can likely handle a stronger formula. Don't let skin aging leave you feeling less confident. Let Retriderm help you discover the fountain of youth.

HOLLYWOOD, Md. (WUSA9) -- Three people were hurt when the deck of a house collapsed in Saint Mary's County, Maryland State Police say.

Vulnerability management, say hello to Security Intelligence
IBM recently announced an integrated security intelligence solution that helps organizations identify key vulnerabilities in real-time, while reducing total cost of security operations.
IBM QRadar Vulnerability Manager gives security officers a prioritized view across their entire network, helping them to quickly strengthen and fortify their defenses. By aggregating vulnerability information into a single view, security teams can see the results from multiple network, endpoint, database or application scanners where it can be quickly reviewed and managed.
