Gore Bike Wear ALP-X 2.0 GT AS Women's Jacket $0.00
Rain, wind, snow, or hail—let it dump. The Gore Bike Wear ALP-X 2.0 GT AS Jacket is ready for whatever Mother Nature can dish out. With a patented fabric construction and an anatomic fit design, the ALP-X 2.0 is the water and windproof jacket that will keep you warm and dry throughout your next trail adventure.
Gore Bike Wear's ALP-X 2.0 GT AS Jacket is made from Gore's patented Gore-Tex Active fabric. This material adheres to Gore's rigorous standards of lightweight, windproof, and waterproof construction. The multilayer fabric design allows high breathability and well regulated moisture transfer away from the skin to the outer layer of the jacket. Not only is the jacket designed to compete with the weather, but it provides a precise anatomic fit as well. The ALP-X jacket features stretch inserts on the back and arms, and an adjustable hem and wrist cuffs to allow the jacket to follow you in and out of the saddle. Gore also incorporated an adjustable zip-away hood and a fold-away shirt tail for protection from wheel spray. And although the ALP-X 2.0 is made for mountainous touring, you're going to have to ride home at some point. That's why Gore's included reflective piping on the sleeves and back, and a reflective logo on the front, back, and collar of the jacket. For storage, the jacket uses a front Napoleon pocket and zippered under-flap.
The Gore Bike Wear ALP-X 2.0 GT AS Jacket is available in sizes X-Small through XX-Large, and in the colors Black/white, Castle Grey/black, Red/black, and Thai Pink/black.

Reviews & Community
Great do-all outer layer.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
This jacket packs easily for any adventure and it's a great do-all outer layer. My favorite thing about this jacket is that it looks great, on or off the bike. I'd prefer some roomier pockets and I'm not a fan of water-resistant zippers as they're just harder to use than normal ones. But that's me being picky. This is the nicest jacket I've used for training and now that the weather is a little questionable, it's a great one to bring along just-in-case.
Dropped-down "shirt tail"
Drapes longer than most other bike jacket...NICE option!
(*the little black mesh areas are the insides of the small exterior pockets...no interior pockets on this jacket)
Mesh interior helps keep out the "clamies"...wicks excess moisture from body.
Here, the "shirt-tail" is snapped up, out of view.
...and now you don't (see it, that is!)
Optional snap-able "shirt tail". Now you see it...
Ready to Roll!
It actually rolls up tighter than this, and fits deeper in the outside pouch of my Osprey Raven 14 pack. So, you can easily take it just in case, or shed/pack when it clears up!
Awesome Protection
Love it.
Another improvement they could make would be pit-zips. But otherwise it can't be beat... PERIOD!
Great performance, comfort, and style.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I can't say enough good things about this jacket. Kept me completely dry and comfortable biking in western island in rain, blowing mist, wind. Very lightweight makes for easy layering and packing. The hood fits comfortably under my helmet, providing a seamless rain shield and extra warmth without blocking any peripheral vision. Its very smartly fitted and styled to flatter women's curves. Along with the rain pants, this jacket made for joyful riding in what would otherwise would have been yucky (windy, chilly, and wet) riding conditions. Nice long arms, snug collar really comfortable and protective. Small possible design improvement : zipper got stuck several times on fabric next to it... I had to pull it away manually.
I typically wear a women's 6-8 (small to medium) top and the medium fit perfectly.
Here's my ALP-X 2.0 rolled neatly in my pack...I don't leave home without it (except on really nice days, I now bring my new Gore XENON windbreaker jacket); but in any event, this jacket is still very packable. The pack is a Osprey Raven 14, to give you a size reference.
Great Water-Proof Lightweight Shell...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
Got this from somewhere else (for the color/size I wanted); will say it is good at helping block wind and repelling rain, but could stand some design adjustments:
I like extendable"shirt tail", totally makes sense, it is very useful. I like that the collar can be zipped up high...but the thing is that when you want to un-zip it for some ventilation, the collar is kind of 'stiff'( just the nature of the material) and won't fold down, and ends up being somewhat annoying. Would like to have had maybe a few more pockets & maybe 'pit-zips', too. But it is what it is, a great windbreaker/rain guard (and I sure wish I had it on-board when the weather turned nasty (to have had over top of my winter jersey & jacket) last ride! Four stars for a few needed design improvements, especially for the price. Just saw that this particular jacket has just been awarded (Bike mag.), check the Gore web site for more details. Very light weight/packable. Overall: Recommended!

Ceridian-UCLA Pulse of Commerce Index down 0.6 percent in October
November 10, 2010
Like in previous months, stagnant freight volumes, especially on the trucking side, appear to be the norm., according to the most recent Ceridian-UCLA Pulse of Commerce Index (PCI), which reported a 0.6 percent decline in October.
This decline follows a 0.5 percent and 1.0 percent declines in September and August, respectively, marking the PCI's first three-month decline since January 2009.
The PCI, according to Ceridian and UCLA, is based on an analysis of real-time diesel fuel consumption data from over-the-road trucking and is tracked by Ceridian, a provider of electronic and stored value card payment services. The PCI data is accumulated by analyzing Ceridian's electronic card payment data that captures the location and volume of diesel fuel being purchased by trucking companies. It is based on real-time diesel fuel purchases using a Ceridian card by over the road truckers at more than 7,000 locations across the United States.
The PCI closely tracks the Federal Reserve's Industrial Production data as well as GDP growth.
"The October data begins the fourth quarter on a down note. October is also an especially important siren for the holiday season," said Ed Leamer, chief PCI economist and director of the UCLA Anderson Forecast, in a statement. "We have had a recovery 'time out. Since May's peak, trucking has receded 8.3 percent. Fortunately, the full stew of economic information does not appear to foretell a double dip in the coming. Rather, the economic malaise that set-in this summer is still very much with us."
On a year-over-year basis, the PCI is up 4.1 percent compared to October 2009, but the report points out that annual PCI increases have been declining since May 2010, which was up 9.0 percent compared to May 2009. Since that time, June was up 8.6 percent, July was up 8.0 percent, August was up 6.0 percent, and September was up 5.8 percent.
And with October showing continued slow growth the PCI report said that with October typically being a peak month for domestic trucking, a disappointing holiday season may be en route.
"The key message here is that the economy has stalled," said Todd Dooley, Ceridian Senior Vice President of Finance, in an interview. "It has not grown on a sequential basis since May and that does not bode well in a broader sense. The slight silver lining on an annual basis is that the economy is continuing to grow, albeit at a slower rate than when it peaked in May."
Dooley said that the current situation falls short of the type of economic recovery that is needed to put people back to work and make people feel comfortable about the economy again, which has been a consistent message of the PCI, especially in recent months.
What's more, there are not any clear signs to change that outlook in the fourth quarter, which is worrisome, explained Dooley.
This has been made evident by sluggish consumer spending and an unemployment rate still hovering just below ten percent, among other economic indicators.

PORT HURON, Mich. (AP) -- The state Department of Transportation says a record number of people rode Amtrak trains in Michigan last year.
Nearly 800,000 passengers traveled on Amtrak in the state in 2012. That's a ridership record on the state's three routes.
MDOT also announced this week that revenues of $27.8 million were at an all-time high.
In a statement, the transportation department said reasons for the record numbers include "increased awareness of train service and a positive focus on the future of rail travel."

Tampa, FL - December 29,2012
A Tampa zoo has a new baby elephant.
Officials at Lowry Park Zoo say an African elephant named Mbali gave birth to her first calf on Sunday. Mbali was one of 11 elephants rescued from culling in Swaziland, Africa, and brought to the U.S. nearly a decade ago.
The newborn female, sired by a bull named Sdudla, is the second African elephant to be born at Lowry Park, the first from the rescued herd.
Officials say the calf is significant because she introduces new DNA into the gene pool of elephants managed in North America.
Zoo workers are monitoring Mbali and her calf to ensure established nursing and proper maternal behavior. They will soon be reunited with two other mature females, who will help care for the newborn.

MILLERSBURG - With the Ohio Division III, Region 11 playoff game between Indian Creek and West Holmes knotted at 7-7 at halftime both teams were searching for a play to swing momentum in its favor.
The Knights found that play on their second drive of the second half from quarterback Gabe Snyder, and things snowballed from there en route to a 35-7 victory against the Redskins on Saturday night at West Holmes High School.
"It's one of those things," Indian Creek coach Andrew Connor said. "They're a good football team, and they made a few more plays than we did.
"One thing I can't say enough was the kids never quit. They played hard, it just wasn't our night."
Snyder, who on seven first half drop backs went 0-for-5 with and interception and was sacked twice, faked a handoff, booted right, and found clear sailing down the home sideline for a 61-yard touchdown run. Logan Gallion knocked the extra point through and West Holmes led 14-7 with 9:26 left in the third quarter.
Things continued to swing to the Knights' side on their next possession.
Snyder threw the ball up for grabs on second-and-seven to Brady Arnold who was covered step-for-step by Frankie Kamarec. Arnold tipped the ball up and pulled in a circus grab for a 31-yard gain at the Indian Creek 35. Four plays later, Garrett Mackey ran in from eight yards out and Gallion hit the PAT for the 21-7 lead.
Another big play set up the Knights on their next possession. Facing a third-and-26, West Holmes handed off to Layne Perone who busted loose for a 29-yard scamper and a first down. Three plays later, on the first play of the fourth quarter, Snyder hit Arnold for a 30-yard touchdown. Gallion's point after made the score 28-7 and West Holmes cruised form there.
The Knights added one more score on a Perone six-yard run to make the final 35-7.
"I just think West Holmes is good, and they just caused us some trouble up front," said Connor. "We just couldn't get anything clicking. We had a couple plays that were called back.
"It was some early mistakes. Sometimes you shoot yourself in the foot and it hurts you, and those things hurt us."

I'm have a old system with Zimbra running on it. As I'm the only user I chose to try it on a server that is a step below the minimum system specs.
The system is a PII 350 Mhz with 512 MB Ram.
For 1 user I find that good enough (Hey, I'm the only user).
I found that the logger is executing every minute.
The crontab says:
# Status logging
* * * * * /opt/zimbra/bin/zmstatuslog
*/10 * * * * /opt/zimbra/bin/zmdisklog
Now I would like to increase the interval of the zmstatuslog to something like 5 or 10 minutes.
i.e. */10 * * * * /opt/zimbra/bin/zmstatuslog
Can I do that relatively safely ? Do I make that change in the crontab or in a different location.

I may be dumber than a stone, but the instructions that I was given by Support to delete mail forwarding are not, in my opinion, designed for a novice user without assistance of a System Administrator. By way of background, I had to reload Windows and Zimbra desktop. So when I opened Zimbra, and went to Preferences, the forwarding address was not longer filled in. Therefore, I could not cancel it. Can someone explain how to fix to a novice user? Thank you so much.
Here are the instructions I was given -- "Even you can cancel email forwarding using Web browser based - Zimbra Web Client, https://<mailservername/IP>, enter your user id and password and goto Preferences> Mail >
Receiving Messages>
When a message arrives:Forward a copy to: <Remove email id> Don't keep a local copy of messages [Un-tick this option]
Also I would like to know, Are you a System administrator or normal zimbra mail user?, This work(ZCS commands) has to performed by your mail server administrator, who is having linux/unix knowledge."
Can someone translate into simple English for a novice user?
Thank you so much.

Atlanta, GA, July 25, 2013 - It seems that everywhere you call, youll hear the exact same message, XXR wheels are on a nationwide backorder. First Choice Wheels and Tires took the initiative to try and beat the system by ordering over a thousand wheels a year in advance. Of course there was no way to order every single size and finish, so we wanted to stick with the most popular items. With a selection of 20,000 part numbers, you can see how this might get overwhelming stated Dino Cajic, CEO of First Choice Wheels and Tires. He explained that XXR is a brand that people want. If we can provide it sooner than the other guy youll come out on top. Our sales and marketing staff have spent hundreds of hours on XXR alone trying to predict which items will be popular a year from now. A year...

The two companies merged in 1988 when Bridgestone Corporation purchased Firestone for $2.6 billion, transforming the companies combined operations into the worlds largest tire and rubber company. As part of its integration with Bridgestones existing U.S. operations, Bridgestone/Firestone moved its headquarters from Akron to Nashville in 1992.
Today, Bridgestone Americas (BSAM), consists of an international family of enterprises with 52 production facilities and more than 50,000 employees throughout the Americas.
BSAM and its subsidiaries develop, manufacture and market a wide range of Bridgestone, Firestone and associate brand tires to address the needs of a broad range of customers. The companies are also engaged in retreading operations throughout the Western Hemisphere and produce air springs, roofing materials, and industrial fibers and textiles. The BSAM family of companies also operates the worlds largest chain of automotive tire and service centers.
Bridgestone Americas remains committed to being a world leader in tire technology, providing world-class customer service and being an outstanding corporate citizen in the communities in which we live and work. The companys culture and mission remains rooted in the words of founder Shojiro Ishibashi, who said Bridgestone is dedicated to serving society with superior quality.
The Bridgestone Americas environmental mission is to help ensure a healthy environment for current and future generations. This commitment to a more sustainable society is a reflection of the Bridgestone Essence and is evident in our missions three main objectives.
The first is to be in harmony with nature. Bridgestone believes that we are all in this together One Team, One Planet. and every business has a part to play and a responsibility to uphold. Bridgestone has taken on the responsibility of contributing to biodiversity protection through habitat enhancement on the land we own, through leading environmental education programs and through promoting environmental research for innovation in their products at their R&D facilities.
Their second objective is to value natural resources. They continually work to decrease the amount of natural resources required for their products and processes through operational improvements and their product designs. They also continue to decrease the amount of waste they generate. For example, their tire plants are nearly 99% efficient in producing saleable tires, i.e. less than 2% are scrap.
The last objective is to reduce the CO2 and other significant emissions. They continually work to reduce these emissions, not only in their direct footprint, but also within the lifecycle of their products. Their corporate goal is to reduce CO2 emissions by 25% before 2020. They have invested their time and money in their value chain in many innovative partnerships, including the EPAs SmartWay program. Likewise, they have invested greatly in educating consumers on how they can conserve fuel and lengthen the useful life of their tires and vehicles through educational programs in our network of 2,200 retail stores.
Bridgestone is proud of their commitment to the environment, their achievements and the recognition they've received for their environmental efforts. They invite you to read our Corporate Environmental Mission Statement and visit the Operations page for current environmental performance metrics.

'Assault Rifle' Not To Blame
September 22, 2013
Quick: What weapon did Aaron Alexis use to kill 12 people at the Navy Yard in Washington, D.C....
Good editorial Mike, I made that point many times here.
Hilarious that some of the survivors said that he was on the 4th floor of an adjacent building trying to shoot into the cafeteria and "He was a really poor shot!"
NO! A shotgun does not have a LONG RANGE, it is close range weapon, DUH!
Lucky for them that most were killed at close range, when he went to the roof, he had problems.
Yeah he also had a handgun but that is not a rifle either.
Obama is pimping more gun control Sunday at a church in DC.
What victims families should ask: WHY the }{ell is the security at our MILITARY BASES so POOR????
This is not a friggen MALL, it is a M_I_L_I_T_A_R_Y Base!!!! The last big terrorist attack was FOOT HOOD, dummies.
What did we LEARN from Foot Hood??? Tones of soldiers with NO WEAPONS, DUH!

Mr. Myer you either haven't been following the story or you left out the facts on purpose. You say he didn't chose an AR-15, no actually that may have been his first choice. He tried out an AR-15 but was unable to purchase it or a handgun with an out of state ID. So he purchased the shotgun instead. If he would have been able to purchase an AR-15 the carnage may have been far worse. Then there is the Wayne LaPiere line the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Well it just happens he shot a good guy with a gun, that is how he obtained the handgun. I agree he shouldn't have been able to purchase any gun since he had mental problems. The NRA has consistantly opposed any measure that would have prevented him from doing so. Also he could have just went to a gun show and picked up an AR-15 from any private party that was selling.

duh wuss, There was a gate he had to go thru with armed guards and also there were armed security people in the complex. As a matter of fact he obtained his handgun from one those guards that he shot. DC has tons of police and they responded within seconds, so it is not like nobody was armed. Oh GWB thightened restrictions on guns at military instalations back in 1992 so you can't blame Obama for that either.

Ohiodum BFD he got past the gate with an Access card.
But when he was SHOOTING, why was there no one to challenge him until the Washington DC POLICE arrived???
POLICE have to arrive and defend a MILIATARY BASE!!
EFFFING PATHETIC! Especially after Ft. Hood, the largest army base in the USA.
Yeah, I know you can't have EVERYBODY wandering around with a gun at military base but virtually all military personnel have had training, let them pack heat for ****sake!
One guy with his own gun may have been able to drop this POS instead of watching and hiding from the slaughter until Police arrive.

Givin me a effing break, about 20 mins or so is what I read before they arrive. He Started shooting around 8:20 and was confirmed dead after 10 AM!!! PATHETIC!

Likewise, a Gallup poll released Friday found that support for stricter gun laws has fallen from a high of 58 percent after the Newtown shooting to 49 percent now.
Both the Gallup poll and the HuffPost/YouGov poll were conducted Sept. 17 and 18, after the Monday deaths of 13 people in the shooting at Navy Yard in Washington, D.C.

Ohiodem he DID NOT try to by an AR-15. This was also misinformation. The only weapon he tried to purchase was the shotgun. Do some research. The NY Times actually retracted the statement about attempting to purchase an AR. He took Jo Biden's advice and bought a shotgun.

Ohiodem "He tried out an AR-15 but was unable to purchase it or a handgun with an out of state ID. So he purchased the shotgun instead."
Dem, you're parroting a left-wing media lie. As justmytake pointed out, in fact, Alexis COULD have purchased an AR-15. Your lying liberal media first reported Alexis USED an AR-15. Then when caught in their first lie, they made up another lie that a non-existent anti-gun law stopped Alexis from buying an AR-15. Now that their second lie is exposed, the left-wing media stooges are quietly removing the tweets and covering their tracks.
Typical Democrits. When the truth doesn't fit the narrative, make up lies. When the lies fall apart, hide the evidence. Disgusting Dems.

Vice President Joe "Two Blasts" Biden, in a February 2013 Field and Stream interview, on the proper use of a shotgun: "Well, you know, my shotgun will do better for you than your AR-15, because you want to keep someone away from your house, just fire the shotgun through the door."
Vice President Joe "Two Blasts" Biden, in a February 2013 Facebook chat, on the proper use of a shotgun: "I said, 'Jill, if there's ever a problem, just walk out on the balcony here, walk out and put that double-barrel shotgun and fire two blasts outside the house.'"
Vice President Joe "Two Blasts" Biden, in a February 2013 Facebook chat, on the best weapon to buy: "You don't need an AR-15—it's harder to aim, it's harder to use, and in fact you don't need 30 rounds to protect yourself. Buy a shotgun! Buy a shotgun!"
Anyone wonder why Joe "Two Blasts" Biden hasn't been heard from lately? Barry Ogungrabber must cringe every time Joe "Two Blasts" steps in front of the microphone

Augusta, GA (Sports Network) - Kevin Na is no stranger to high numbers, which
he proved again Sunday during the final round of the 77th Masters.
Na, who infamously and unbelievably posted a 16 on the ninth hole at the 2011
Texas Open, dropped three shots into Rae's Creek on the par-3 12th at Augusta
National en route to a septuple-bogey 10.
The one-time PGA Tour winner entered No. 12 9-over for the tournament and
promptly dropped his first shot into the drink to the right of the green. He
unsleeved a new ball and re-teed, but his third shot couldn't hold the bank
and trickled into the water. As the spectators exhibited their encouragement,
Na hit his fifth shot and instantly let out a loud "Come on!" as the ball
tracked Rae's Creek and splashed down. The fans really got behind Na as he
again teed up, and this time he found the fringe to the left of a back
greenside bunker, hanging his head in frustration after the swing.
Na needed three shots from the edge of the green to wrap up his septuple,
which briefly dropped him into a tie for last place with Carl Pettersson at
16-over. He then bounced back with consecutive birdies starting at the 14th to
climb out of the cellar.
Surprisingly, Na's 10 isn't the highest score at Augusta's par-3 12th. That
distinction belongs to Tom Weiskopf, who carded a 13 at the hole during the
first round of the 1980 Masters.

WHEELING - It was the one they've been waiting for.
When undefeated Steubenville came into the Stifle Field House, Linsly had only one thing on its mind: revenge.
It was Big Red who beat the Cadets in the first game of the season, 63-46 - the only blemish on their record.
Article Photos
Linsly's Morgan Brunner (13) goes up for a shot as Steubenville's Brittany Bodo (23) defends during action of their game Monday night in Wheeling.
''We've been watching film for like a week just learning their plays,'' Linsly sophomore Morgan Brunner said. ''We wanted it really bad.''
It showed.
The Cadets jumped out to a quick lead and never looked back as they extended their winning streak to 14 games by beating Steubenville, 68-48, in front of a packed audience.
''We have so many new girls on our team and we were only together for a few weeks,'' Linsly coach Erica Hall said of the first matchup. ''We knew Big Red had girls that have been playing with each other for a while. It was an aggressive game. We came in here hungry for sure.''
Linsly (14-1) used a stifling defense to limit Big Red (16-1) to 3 of 21 shooting in the first half to take a 22-13 lead at halftime. The Cadets also forced 11 turnovers in the first 16 minutes.
''Our shooting was poor most of the game,'' said Steubenville coach Phil Casinelli, who did not coach in the first meeting due to personal reasons. ''We weren't hitting our shots. It's as simple as that.''
The 13 first-half points were a season-low for Big Red.
''They're long,'' Casinelli said of the Cadets. ''I think we have to have a little bit better guard play. Our guard play wasn't what we expected. We did turn the ball over quite a few times, but it was more the fact that we made bad passes. Not to take anything away from them, but our guard play needs to get better if we're going to move forward.''
Steubenville began the third shooting 4 of 8 and eventually cut the deficit to 33-24 with 3:14 remaining in the period on a pair of Lysiah Rice free throws, but Brunner, who finished with 31 points, connected on a conventional three-point-play to give the Cadets back their double-digit lead at 38-24.
''The momentum they had with the crowd, they got up early and just rode that wave,'' Casinelli said. ''Add that to our cold shooting and we were just never able to get within range. We cut it to nine in the third, then we had an opportunity to make it seven, but we missed a shot and they came down and hit one.''
That seemed to be the story all night.
Any run Big Red attempted to make was cut short by either solid post play from Jazzie Orth and Vivian Allison or J.J. Jackson driving right through the heart of the defense for a lay-in. Plus once Brunner got the ball in her hands, nearly 60 percent of the time it went in.
''We have scorers on our team, and it's different ones every night, so we're getting used to the fact that it's OK to rely on each other,'' Hall said. ''When we play together, the more effective we're going to be. The girls just want to win. They deal with that maturity part pretty well.''
Brunner had nine boards to go with her 31 points, two shy of her career-high, and was 15 of 16 from the foul line. Jackson added with 12 points and six steals, while Allison had 17 points. Orth ended the night with 10 rebounds and four points.
''I thought it was a great game, great atmosphere,'' Hall said. ''This was the best that I've seen us play as a team. Everyone kept their head. We're going to make mistakes, but they let the mistakes roll of their shoulders and continued to play hard. It was a great team effort. I'm really proud of them.''
''We needed this for our confidence," Hall said. "We won 13 games, but we really weren't getting a lot of competition in certain games to push us. (Monday) was a test. Big Red definitely brought it.''
While the dream of an undefeated season came to an end for Casinelli his team, its season goals are still in reach.
''It's hard in any sport to go undefeated,'' he said. ''It's a difficult thing because the more game you win, the more other teams want to knock you off that pedestal. We have a lot of goals this year and all of those goals are still obtainable. It really wasn't one of our goals to win every game. It's not breaking our goals. It's just one game and the girls understand that. We didn't get too high one all those wins and we're not going to get too low on one loss.''
Emiley Masloski finished with 21 points to lead Steubenville.

Cappaert, Gomez Earn First Team All-Region
AMES, Iowa – For the first time in 15 years the Iowa State softball team was represented on the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) DI All-Midwest Region First Team, which was announced Thursday.
ISU centerfielder Brittany Gomez and designated player Aly Cappaert were named to the First Team, and catcher Rachel Hartman and shortstop Lexi Slater were bestowed with Third Team honors. This is the first NFCA All-Region award for all four players. The quartet's All-Region selections bring ISU's all-time total to 20 across 16 different student-athletes. This also marks the first time in program history that four Cyclones have been named to an All-Region team. The previous record was three in 1995.
Cappaert and Gomez become the sixth and seventh players in ISU program history to earn NFCA All-Region First Team honors. All the previous First Team honors came before the turn of the century, the most recent being Erin Woods in 1999.
Gomez, from New Braunfels, Texas, put up one of the top offensive seasons in Iowa State history in 2014. The sophomore finished 2014 with a .397 batting average, the third-highest for a season in ISU history and 75 hits, second-most in program history. Gomez's Big 12 numbers slated her with a .368 batting average, 10th in conference play, and 21 hits. Gomez became ISU's all-time stolen bases leader with 55 in her career, 24 coming this season. On Monday, Gomez was named to the All-Big 12 Second Team for the second consecutive season.
Cappaert, a sophomore from Ankeny, had one of the top power-hitting seasons in ISU program history. She finished the season with 11 home runs and 45 RBIs. The 11 four-baggers tie her for third in a single-season in ISU history, while the 45 RBIs were the second-most in ISU history. Cappaert's .366 batting average is the seventh-highest in a single-season in ISU history. She was also Iowa State's top walker of the season, drawing 23 walks. Cappaert finished the season with a team-high 102 total bases, the second-most in a single season in ISU history.
Hartman, a freshman from Las Flores, Calif., had one of the top freshman seasons in Iowa State history. She is now the ISU freshman record holder for best batting average (.378), slugging percentage (.538), on-base percentage (.414), RBIs (34) and she tied for the most doubles by a Cyclone freshman with 13. Her .378 batting average ranks fifth for a single-season in Iowa State history and her 13 doubles are tied for fourth in program history. Hartman started 53 games behind the plate for ISU, amassing 59 hits. Her form in the second half of the season was outstanding, as she hit .364 in Big 12 play.
Slater, a junior from Ramona, Calif., was another key component to Iowa State's offense in 2014. Coming into the season with a career .248 batting average, Slater hit .345 for the season with eight home runs and 34 RBIs. She tied ISU's single-season doubles record with her 16 two-baggers and her slugging percentage of .595 was nearly 200 points higher than her 2013 mark. Slater's 100 total bases for the season make Cappaert and her the first Cyclone teammates to reach record 100 total bases in the same season. Slater's 100 is tied for the third most in a single season in ISU program history.
By being named to the All-Region team, the quartet are now eligible to be named to the NFCA All-America teams, which will be determined within the next two weeks.

Obama: Russia needs to ensure Syria complies with obligations
Newscast Media WASHINGTON—While hosting French President François Hollande at
the White House, Barack Obama said in a joint press conference that Russia has the
responsibility to ensure that Syria gets rid of its chemical weapons.
"Just as our unity on Syria, and the credible threat of force led to a plan for
destroying Syria's chemical weapons, we're united on what needs to happen next
there, " Obama said.
"Syria must meet its commitments, and Russia has a responsibility to ensure that
Syria complies. And as talks continue in Geneva, we'll continue to strengthen the
moderate opposition, and we call on the international community to stem the flow of
foreign fighters into Syria," he added.
Last August, Russia convinced Syria to agree to destroy its chemical weapons to
avert what seemed to be a military confrontation with the West. The process is
ongoing in phases under the supervision of both the U.S. and Russia. Plans have
reportedly been made to destroy the chemical weapons at sea.
Obama also talked about implementing key global initiates in Africa like food security.
"We're moving forward together on key global development initiatives: food security
and nutrition that can lift 50 million Africans out of poverty; our determination to
replenish the Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB, and malaria — and I'm pleased that we're
joining with partners around the world on a new global health security effort to
combat infectious diseases and save lives," Obama said at the press conference in
the East Room.

Stone Woods Cook Willy's - Re-lettering a LegendWritten by Chuck Vranas on February 23, 2011
Every rodder knows that old race cars were purpose-built to rip-up the strip and generate as many wins as possible. They were abused, blown-up, wrecked, and then rebuilt countless times over their lifespan. Many were never seen again once their race duties were completed, often being parted out or sold as rollers to other owners who would run them in different classes. In the case of the Stone, Woods & Cook gasser (pictured here), once its usefulness to the team had reached its end, the car was sold-off to new owners where it continued to run in various classes with numerous engine combinations. It finally wound up in the hands of Joe Troilo in '72. Answering a blind ad in a local paper offering a Willys body and parts for sale, Joe came face to face with the long-retired historic Gasser which he immediately recognized since he was an avid race fan. Even though the $1,000.00 asking price was steep for its time based on what was left of the car, he recognized the cars significance and purchased it. With history in mind, everything that he stripped off the car as he prepared it for life on the street he kept, including many original hand fabricated race parts. Years passed, his family grew and the car was sold off to good friend Mike Wales who later opted to re-chassis it and bring it up to Pro-Street specs. During this time frame, other parts which were no longer going to be used were sold off to Mike's friend Howard Radtke who wished to preserve them based on the cars heritage. The parts included the seats and door panels from the Ed Martinez interior and the original chassis. This is where the story gets interesting. Joe never forgot the cool times that he had in the Willys and had often hoped of buying the car back as time marched on, but Mike couldn't bring himself to part with it. In '01, Joe met up with Mike at a national rodding event that they talked about bringing the car back to its original '62 glory. Joe offered to do all the labor and to contribute back the original parts that he had as did Howard to make it all come together. In January '02 the reconstruction commenced and by later summer '06, the car was sent off to Larry Hook's striping shop in Cumberland , Rhode Island , to have it completely re-lettered to original race form. Hook being one of the most accomplished stripers in the country was up to the challenge. His concise artistic abilities enabled him to duplicate Ed Roth's lines and the visual impact that gave the car its soul.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Full size templates were created on white transparent masking paper which would later be matched up to the car to assist in the image transfer. Here a pounce tool was used to gently perforate the paper outlines while the templates are on a mildly padded surface.Hook met with Troilo to go over the final templates for accuracy, letter size, and form before getting started. The original Roth layout was extremely tricky to follow as Ed's lettering was extremely unique.Hook measured and hung the templates on the car to help visualize the final orientation on letter size and placement to the original cars artwork.There were numerous enlargements of the original Swindler II taped to different areas on the car to act as a direct reference. The fine details of the original artwork required numerous check-backs (sometimes with a magnifying glass) to be sure that it was heading in the right direction as the work progressed.With the templates securely in place, Hook began to powder the perforated areas with fine white talcum applied to some soft cotton. This laid down a residue which would act as a reference for the next step.Generating an outline with a grease pencil acted as a guide to continue with the recreation process. The use of the grease pencil easily allows changes or updates to any of the lettering or lines prior to the final paint being laid down.Hook taped off certain areas which would require striping to give him reference lines to follow. For this he used 1/4-inch masking tape. With original images in hand, it was all freehand along the beltline of the door to lay down lettering and graphics without the use of a template.It took multiple types of brushes ranging from 0 quills to a #12 lettering brush to get everything just right. Here, 1-Shot paint in a dark blue color (which is an exact match to what Roth used on the original layout) gets laid down.
Note the spelling on the doors beltline of Equp being misspelled; perhaps this was Ed trying to be funny when he laid down his masterful lines.Here Hook worked with a thicker a #5 brush as he laid down the wide lines on Doug "Cookie" Cook's name.Imagine how many competitors were intimidated as they sat on the line waiting for the lights to drop. Many would long remember the name Stone, Woods, and Cook as it flew past them in a blur.Working with an ultra fine quill brush, Hook brought the cartoonish character to life once again handling the shifting duties on the B&M Hydro-stick. . . ah, the brilliance of Roth.With the Cal Automotive hood on a workbench, Hook accessed the tiny corner area where the Stone, Woods, and Cook crest needed to be recreated using a quill brush.One of the most difficult parts on the whole job to recreate required referencing a vintage plastic kit model water transfer decal sheet to get the details just right.
A 425ci Olds V8 topped with a Hilborn 4-port mechanical fuel injector feeds a 6-71 GMC blower perched atop a Weiand intake. Spark from a Joe Hunt magneto lights the fire while a B&M Hydro transfers the power to a'57 Olds rear.

January 2009
Feature Story: NAMI Promotes Crisis Intervention for Youth
Contributors: Dana Markey and Laura Usher
An alarming number of youth with serious mental health treatment needs continue to enter the juvenile justice system because of the lack of psychiatric crisis intervention services available in schools and communities. Schools in particular have proven to be a pipeline into the juvenile justice system with school personnel contacting law enforcement when students engage in inappropriate behaviors as a result of a psychiatric crisis.
In response to this national crisis, NAMI's Child and Adolescent Action Center and CIT Resource Center are working on a new initiative, funded by the Annie E. Casey Foundation, to promote CIT programs that focus on responding to youth in psychiatric crisis in schools and in the community. Read more...

Grapevine, Tex. The Boy Scouts of America's National Council has voted to ease a long-standing ban and allow openly gay boys to be accepted as Scouts.
Of the Scout leaders voting at their annual meeting in Texas, more than 60 percent supported the proposal.
Under the proposal drafted by the Scouts' governing board, gay adults will remain barred from serving as Scout leaders.
The outcome is unlikely to end a bitter debate over the Scouts' membership policy.
Some conservative churches that sponsor Scout units wanted to continue excluding gay youths, in some cases threatening to defect if the ban were lifted.
More liberal Scout leaders, while supporting the proposal to accept gay youth, have made clear they want the ban on gay adults lifted as well.

It will be an 18X18 roll off roof design..with tin roof.
Wood floor..8ft walls and most likely a 10/12 roof to accomodate my scope and pier adequately.
I'll be employing the services of my daughters boyfriend who just happens to be a framing contractor.....I'm happy.
I will be using rigid casters on an alternating system that will allow every other caster to ride on the opposite side of a wall cap wood rail. This way I can safe money and still provide a safe and secure rolling system.
One last note: if you need framing help(Locally) Tim is available..he's awesome and very skilled.
Here is a drawing of the alternating caster.

Western safety practices exalted!
While Western employees work diligently keeping "the lights on", they also aim high to go home safe each night. Safety is our number one priority and last year employees proved it by earning the American Public Power Association's Electric Utility Safety Awards of Excellence for safe operating practices in 2012.
Western's Chief Operating Officer Tony Montoya expressed his appreciation saying, "We are proud of our safety performance. We have a staff of top-class professionals who strive to ensure safe operations in every facet of their work."
In 2012, Western crews—including electricians, meter and relay craftsmen and linemen—spent more than 2.6 million hours working out in the field. Those 1,700-plus employees had fewer than 22 recordable injuries for an incident rate of 1.6.
The rate is based on work-related recordable injuries or illnesses and the number of hours worked during the year. "The award recognition goes to the employees who work in high risk environments each and every day," said Western's Safety Manager Kevin Jensen. "A successful culture of safety means every employee is watching out for their fellow Western brothers' and sisters' safety all the time."
What safety practices do you take pride in?

Lovastatin (LVS) is a well-known compound for lowering plasma cholesterol levels. After oral administration, the inactive parent lactone is hydrolyzed to the corresponding hydroxyacid form. The hydroxyacid is the principal metabolite and a potent inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase. This enzyme catalyzes the conversion of hydroxymethylglutarate to mevalonate, which is an early and rate-limiting step in cholesterol biosynthesis (1, 2).
LVS is white crystalline powder that is insoluble in water (0.4 g/mL). At room temperature, the partition coefficient of LVS in n-octanol/water system is approximately: Ko/w = 1.2 × 104 (3). Low aqueous solubility of LVS leads to inadequate dissolution in gastrointestinal fluids and, hence, poor absorption, distribution, and targeted organ delivery. The improvement of aqueous solubility in such a case is a valuable goal to improve therapeutic efficacy.
β-CD has ideal dimensions to complex a range of commonly used drugs. Unfortunately, it has the limitation of a high affinity for cholesterol, which may lead to crystallization of a poorly water-soluble β-CD–cholesterol complex in the kidney. This complex could cause nephrotoxicity. HPβ-CD, a chemical derivative of β-CD, similarly improves the aqueous solubility of many drugs, but it is more hydrophilic than β-CD, forms a less-stable complex with cholesterol, and, therefore, is less toxic (13).

Wondering if there's a way to specify that all e-mails to a specific contact should be sent as plain text ?
I know the option to reply with same format or to send all e-mail as plain text exist but we're having an issue with one of our contacts being unable to print our e-mails and sending it as plain text to him would fix that issue. However, we'd like to retain HTML messages for everyone else without the user having to change the text body type every time we send him a new e-mail.
Is there an option to do this somewhere ?

I have tried just about every option I could find on the forums, google etc.
The environment is as follows:
Release 6.0.8_GA_2661.RHEL5_64_20100824100342 CentOS5_64 NETWORK edition. ( It should be noted that this is a trial, if that may make a difference?)
BES Xpress 5.0.3
Windows server 2008 STD
mail mode is set to "both"
So here is the issue:
I have everything set up, proper mapi, bes connector, outlook 2007 sp2.
the GAL syncs, but I do not see it in any of the profiles (blackberry manager, etc)
when I try to add a user to the BAS I receive an error that it cannot find the information I am searching for (paraphrasing a bit).
Does any one have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help. IF you need logs I will be happy to post them.

8 Super Spring Cleaning Tips
If you keep up with house cleaning chores, the thought of spring cleaning doesn't have to be so scary. If you perform the daily and weekly touch-ups, spring cleaning is limited to just the extras – the cleaning tasks that only need to be done once a year.
1. Clean the Carpet – In some cases, it is necessary to have your carpet professionally cleaned every 12-18 months to keep up a new carpet's warranty. If that's not the case, do it yourself. Rent or buy a professional-style deep carpet cleaner designed for home use. Many leave carpets and rugs dry within about an hour which means you won't have to inconvenience your family.
2. Clean under furniture and behind appliances – First enlist someone to help you move big pieces of furniture and pull kitchen appliances away from the wall. Sweep and vacuum the floor under each item and use the vacuum hose to clean under and behind appliances.
3. Wash windows – Save this chore for a cloudy day. If it is too sunny, the cleaning solution will dry quickly on the glass leaving streaks. Wash inside and out. Have a system. Wipe with vertical strokes inside and horizontal strokes outside. If you do end up with streaks, you'll know what side of the window needs a little more attention.
4. Wash door frames, walls and baseboards – These surfaces are easy to overlook on a daily basis, but they deserve a little attention once a year. Just mix a squirt of dishwashing soap with a bucket of warm water and wipe with a sponge. Tough scuff marks, fingerprints and even crayons can be wiped away with the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.
5. Clean sliding glass door tracks – Begin by sweeping or vacuuming the track to remove the large pieces of debris. Scrub the tracks with a toothbrush and soapy water. Wipe clean with a wet sponge.
6. Clean window treatments – If your curtains can be laundered, take them down and throw them in the washing machine. Be sure to follow the label directions for cleaning. For other windows treatments that cannot be washed, go over them thoroughly with the upholstery attachment on the vacuum.
7. Dust ceiling fans, light fixtures and light bulbs – Use a lint-free cloth to dust the glass fixtures and bulbs you can reach. For ceiling fans and other light fixtures that are out of your reach, visit the local home improvement stores. There all many types of tools available to help you reach things that would ordinarily require a ladder.
8. Clean furniture – Use the upholstery vacuum attachment to clean fabric covered sofas and chairs. Restore smooth leather with the appropriate upholstery cleaner and conditioner. Polish wooden furniture pieces including dining room chairs, the coffee table and end tables.
Using these tips as your spring cleaning guide, you'll be well on your way to a clean and fresh home.
