WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- Two Georgetown University students were assaulted when their home was burglarized early Saturday morning, the Department of Public Safety said.
Officials say a DPS public safety sent an alert email at 9:45 a.m. notifying the campus community of the burglary at the 3500 block of O Street. In the email, officials said the two students noticed an intruder in their home at about 3:45 a.m. The intruder struck both students and then fled towards the campus. Both students sustained minor injuries.
The suspect is described as a white male, 5'10", about 21 years of age, weighing 160 pounds and has brown hair. He was last seen wearing a light blue shirt and blue jeans.
DC police are conducting an investigation.

20-50 full synth after the first change. Not a drop used in 2200 miles.
Precious needs ca. 0,1-0,2 litres per 1000 km. I doubt that she burns it - the only spot to loose this amount would be the drive pinion´s shaft, as it is surrounded by a brownish sauce that - I suspect - is not only chain grease but some engine oil, too. Hard to say. Does anyone changed the o-ring there? How complicated could that be?
Any warranty left?
To isolate the chain sludge I would thoroughly clean the chain and switch to chain wax for a while. If you still have sludge it could be the seal. Another solution is a dye that you put in the oil. It will show that engine oil is lubing your chain. It has been decades since I used it but I'm sure they still make the dye.

Video: Debt limit deadline is Thursday
WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- We're now two weeks into the government shutdown. Politicians on Capitol Hill are running out of time to avoid hitting the debt ceiling and defaulting on
Sunday, negotiations between the White House and Republicans in the House stalled. Monday at 2 p.m., the Senate heads back to work. Lawmakers say progress is being made but it is moving very, very slowly.
If Congress doesn't step in, the country will plunge into default Thursday. Lawmakers say they don't want to see that happen, but as of now, no one has come up with a plan to avoid it.
Susan Collins of Maine is now leading a bipartisan deal that would fund the government at current levels for six months while raising the debt limit through Jan. 31.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says Collins' plan treats reopening the government as a, quote, "concession." That calls for delayed apportions of the Affordable Care Act.
"I think these mainstream Republicans are getting fed up with the Tea Party and Ted Cruz. They see where it is leading them, to very low poll numbers. This idea that unless I get my way, I'm going to do huge damage to our credit rating to millions of people who depend on the government isn't working," said New York Sen. Chuck Schumer on CBS' Face the Nation.
Sen. John McCain said on CBS' Face the Nation, "Senator Cruz didn't make any bones about what he was going to do when he came to Washington. The question is, should we follow that leadership or go in other directions?"
A number of polls indicate that the majority of American people want to see their government back up and running and working again.

CHICAGO (AP) — Passengers say a United Airlines plane made an emergency landing in Kansas after an evacuation slide deployed during the flight, filling part of the cabin.
Mike Schroeder says he was flying from Chicago to Orange County, California, late Sunday when he heard a hiss and pop. He says he turned around and saw the plane's emergency evacuation slide inflating inside the plane.
Schroeder says the pilot announced to passengers that they would be landing at Wichita's Mid-Continent Airport. He says passengers remained calm and took pictures of the inflated slide with their phones.
Scariest Flight of all time #EmergencyLanding pic.twitter.com/yj5KH9bvDp

Schroder says that after landing the pilot looked at the slide and said he had never seen that happen before.
United Airlines representatives did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment early Monday.

Footloose (2011)
Footloose Synopsis
Writer/Director Craig Brewer (Hustle & Flow, Black Snake Moan) delivers a new take of the beloved 1984 classic film, Footloose. Ren MacCormack (played by newcomer Kenny Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont's local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister's troubled daughter Ariel (Julianne Hough) in the process.

Kevin Bacon Gives The Footloose Remake The Thumbs-Up
As remakes go, Footloose did a fine job of capturing the spirit of the original film, and also managed to boost the dancing to match the talent movie-goers have come to expect thanks to movies like the Step Up series. Kevin Bacon, who starred as Ren McCormack in the original film, weighed in on the remake and it looks as though the new Footloose is now Bacon-approved.

How Director Craig Brewer Found Out Jack White Is A Footloose Fan
There are many notable scenes in Herbert Ross' 1984 film Footloose, but few are more iconic than Kevin Bacon's "angry dance" in the warehouse. Needless to say, it was a scene that director Craig Brewer had to get right in his remake, which comes out tomorrow. But instead of using the song "Never" by Moving Pictures, which was featured in the original, Brewer instead decided to go with "Catch Hell Blues" by The White Stripes.

Julianne Hough Testing For Footloose
If I could say one thing to the producers of the upcoming Footloose remake it would be this: No! If I could say two things, then the second thing I would say is that just because a girl is pretty and can dance, does not mean she should be in Footloose

Are they just going to settle for High School Musical sidekick Corbin Bleu and be done with it? Are they going to turn some unknown into Efron's greatest rival? Are they kidding us with this harebrained remake scheme?

It is easy to envy someone with seemingly perfect skin and to assume that the person was born with a perfect complexion. However, the truth is that most people can achieve an enviable complexion with the help of properly selected products. Using a cleanser and moisturizer that target your particular skin type and problem areas is essential, but sometimes skin needs an extra boost to look its best. Quintessence Skin Science Treatments work to address problem areas with intensive treatment. These formulas were developed by a team of dermatologists who regularly deal with patients' skin issues related to stress, dryness, aging, irritation, discoloration, and other common problems. Quintessence Skin Science Treatments help restore your skin's radiance and improve smoothness and firmness.
The ingredients in Quintessence Skin Science Treatments are proven to be safe and effective in treating common skin problems. These products are easy to incorporate into your existing skin care routine and will improve the overall results. Quintessence Skin Science Treatments pamper your skin with the extra attention it needs to achieve a youthful, radiant, healthy, and enviable complexion.
Achieving the skin you have always wanted is within your reach. Incorporating the appropriate product from the Quintessence Skin Science Treatments line can make all the difference in attaining a healthy and glowing complexion.
If your skin needs aren't being met by your basic moisturizer, try adding Quintessence Serum C Antioxidant and Firming Drops to your skincare regimen. This light serum contains vitamin C and cucumber extract to help improve skin tone, reduce the size of pores, and improve elasticity. Clinical studies have shown that topical application of certain antioxidants such as those contained in Quintessence Serum C Antioxidant and Firming Drops can help prevent aging of the skin caused by the sun. This formula also reduces redness, helps to control inflammation, and promotes wound healing. The serum can be used on any areas of skin exposed to the sun and should be applied prior to sunscreen for maximal results.
Facial skin can grow increasingly dull due to stress and various environmental factors. To overhaul dull or discolored skin as well as premature wrinkles, try Quintessence Q-Strixin Micro-Active Emulsion Facial Formula. This formula seeks to rejuvenate skin, resulting in a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion. Emblica extract helps to diminish discolorations while peptides stimulate collagen synthesis and improve skin's firmness.
Even if your skin is relatively clear and healthy, sometimes it could use a boost of brightness. Quintessence Skin Brightener is formulated to improve the appearance of facial and hand pigmentation by brightening skin. Antioxidants, moisturizing ingredients, and natural anti-inflammatory agents help skin to look its best.


text: I have been using the Katydyn Hiker pro for years and really like it for dependability. It is a little heavier than I would like though. I used to drink out of springs without purification to until eight years ago when I got Giardia. I don't want to go into the details, but trust me it is something that you never want to experience. A lot of times springs actually come from creeks and lakes sometimes miles away. It may look like its a clean pure spring, but it could be coming from somewhere else. I second using a filter also around any area that has or does contain livestock . The cattle can spread some pretty nasty things into areas that look pristine but have been compromised. The biggest thing I don't like about the Katydyn hiker is the price of the replacement filters. They are very proud of them.

Police in Watertown, Wisconsin believe that an attempt to imitate Halo may have played a role in the death of an 11-year-old boy from an accidental gunshot.
As reported by the Watertown Daily Times, Joshua Nimm apparently took the day off from school to do some gaming:
[Police] said it appeared… that after playing a combat video game called "Halo," Nimm took the gun and tried to recreate some of the things that had occurred in the game. With an automatic rifle, [Sgt.] Lee said there can sometimes be confusion over whether it contains a magazine or not, and this confusion likely led to Nimm's death.
"He took the magazine out and forgot to eject a round that was in the chamber. He probably thought the gun was unloaded," Lee said.

Set Visit Report: Entering The World Of The Thing Prequel
By Eric Eisenberg 2010-10-04 09:46:32 comments
Before I visited the set for Matthijs van Heijningen Jr.s prequel to John Carpenters The Thing this past summer in Toronto, I worried, like many fans of the original, that this was simply another example of a studio taking advantage of a franchise with a fan base to make a quick buck. Carpenters film, with its paranoid feel and revolutionary effects work, is a horror classic; what could a prequel really offer? Outpost 31 fans have worried about shoddy CGI and a redundant story from the day the prequel was announced, but what they dont know is how much work is being done to quell those fears.
Matthijs [van Heijningen Jr.] has on his laptop not only screen captures of that entire movie, but there isnt a moment when he doesnt go back to the original, said Producer Marc Abraham, while sitting under a tent just outside the massive set. Fans of Carpenters film will always remember the first sign of trouble that R.J. MacReady, played by Kurt Russell, and Dr. Cooper, played by Richard Dysart, run into when entering the Norwegian base: the blood-covered axe jammed solidly into the wall. Not only has the prequel recreated that image, but the entire set as well, down to the last detail.
Hes so careful about where the axe is in the door or what the ice block looked like, or the spaceship, where they stand when we see the spaceship, said Abraham. Because we can do so much more, so many things we could do, but when it came to being anything that was referenced in that movie, we have absolutely stayed with it.
It was from what we see in the Norwegian base scene of Carpenters The Thing that helped map out exactly what needed to occur in Heijningens prequel. Speaking with producers, actors, set designers and effects creators, it became clear that the ultimate goal of this new movie is that audiences will be able to watch both back-to-back with complete continuity. According to the producers, the writers used the sequence in Carpenters film as a road map for the prequel and structured plot points around them. How did the axe get covered in blood? How did it get into the wall? Why did nobody remove it? What exactly happened to the charred, fused-skeleton corpse they find in the back? There isnt a single stone left unturned or question left answered.
As you can probably guess by the word prequel, the events in Heijningens film begin before the trials experienced by MacReady and crew at the American base in Antarctica, when scientists at a Norwegian outpost make a tremendous discovery: an alien spacecraft buried under the icecap that has been there for thousands of years. Paleontologist Kate Lloyd, played by Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World star Mary Elizabeth Winstead, travels down to the site to work alongside the Norwegians and discovers a frozen specimen in the ice. Unbeknownst to her, however, is that this is the evil, replicating organism from the first film. Awoken from its slumber, Kate, the Norwegians, and a helicopter pilot named Carter, played by Joel Edgerton, soon find themselves not knowing who they can trust and must find a way to destroy the creature before it kills them all.
Its intimidating as hell, Gillis said. In 1982 I remember where I was when I was watching [John Carpenters The Thing], I was in college. Bottin is just a couple of years older than me. So Im sitting there at like 20. He was 22, I think, when he helmed that. And Im sitting there thinking, Whoa!
The work being done by ADI Studios is remarkable pure movie magic. While touring the workshop and set, I was able to closely inspect a great deal of ADIs work, including the alien that the Norwegians find buried in the ice; the fused bodies mentioned above; and a whole bunch of spare limbs. The models, made using a translucent silicone skin, are so incredibly lifelike that being surprised by one in your closet would result in a hospital visit.
Touring around the set itself, in addition to going into the effects workshop, I was able to see some incredibly cool set-ups, including the inside of the alien ship seen in the first film, which, because of its organic/metallic look, seems to be inspired to some extent by the work of artist H.R. Giger, as well as the various rooms in the Norwegian base. Walking through the kitchen, bathroom and living spaces, I took note of the set design, and not a single detail was misplaced, from Norwegian-labeled food cans to decade-appropriate pin-up girl posters (because this is a prequel to a film set in the 80s, naturally this film takes place in the 80s as well). While I didnt get to watch Edgerton or Winstead perform, I did get to watch as a stuntman was set on fire by a flame thrower something you dont typically see during a day at the office.
While I obviously cant express an opinion about the movie as a whole, Id be lying if I said my confidence in The Thing prequel didnt vastly improve during my trip to Toronto. The people behind this project have heard your complaints and your worries. They seem to understand both your passion and your concerns. They appear to genuinely care for the original just as much as you or I. Standing atop the hatch of the alien spaceship and realizing that its an exact replica of the one seen in Carpenters film, I appreciated that we may have never asked for a prequel to be made, but Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. and crew are trying to show us why we should have.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) - Retail chain IKEA says they are going all-LED by 2016 in an initiative to be a more sustainable business.
"More than half of Americans have seen an increase in their home electric bill over the last 12-24 months. Furthermore, 69% of Americans say that lighting accounts for up to 40% of their electric bill. Replacing existing lighting with LEDs can save between 50% and 90% of lighting energy costs," IKEA stated in a press release.
This is not the first green initiative the company has taken on. IKEA was the first company that stopped the use of plastic bags and incandescent bulbs, according to the press release.
IKEA has 38 stores in the U.S., and one store in Metro Atlanta -- at Atlantic Station.

This is my last week on "Talkshow" (no, I haven't been fired - we're about to shoot episodes #21 and #22), so I'll be dropping by a lot more often… very soon. We'll get together then, you know we'll have a good time then.
Meanwhile, I am going to assign some homework.
I've noticed in the past couple of days that the Democrats' big win has caused some of the right's pundits and players to become unhinged. Okay, more so, I guess. Intemperate accusations, loud scramblings for position, inchoate anger, and crazy, asymmetrical eye movements.
It's not pretty, but it is a lot of fun. And I'd like to see it documented in the Comments below.
I'll get us started with this pleasant double dose, from Sean Hannity and Michelle Malkin.
Have at it.

For over 100 years, the Society of American Foresters has been meeting the educational needs of foresters and forestry-allied professionals through the publication of a suite of scientific and technical journals. SAF's principal publication, the Journal of Forestry (JoF), began publication in 1917 as "an amalgamation of the best features" of two other publications:Forestry Quarterly ("the first professional organ in the field," founded in October 1902 and published by the New York State College of Forestry, Cornell University) and the Proceedings of the Society of American Foresters (founded in May 1905, published by SAF) (SAF 1917). In 1955, SAF established Forest Science to fill the need for a vehicle to "publish long articles, highly technical articles, or those dealing with research methodology which are of interest only to a segment of its readers" [i.e., SAF members] (Demmon 1955). This was followed in 1977 with the creation of the Southern Journal of Applied Forestry (SJAF), established "to address topics which can find application in practice and to do so in the language of the nonspecialist" (Duffield 1977); a second regional applied journal, the Northern Journal of Applied Forestry (NJAF), was launched in 1984, followed closely by a third, the Western Journal of Applied Forestry (WJAF), in 1986 (Walls 2013).
SAF's scientific publications each fill a specific niche in the dissemination of forestry research. Forest Science strives to present "deep science" fundamental to the understanding of forest ecosystems; NJAF, SJAF, and WJAF present the application of that knowledge within specific forest ecosystems; and JOF focuses on management-oriented science, policy, and case studies framed to highlight their implications to the stewardship of America's forest resource. However, while both supply (authorship) and demand (readership) have increased for JOF and Forest Science, these measures of viability have steadily declined across the past decade for the three regional applied journals. Sadly, these regional applied journals have now reached a threshold where it is no longer viable to continue publication in their current format, and their final issues will be printed in 2013.
While there are significant economic drivers behind the decision to cease independent publication of the three regional applied journals, they represent a knowledge stream that is not replicated elsewhere, and we strongly believe that SAF has a responsibility to provide an outlet for this type of research. As the applied descendants of fundamental questions, this research forms a natural extension of the science presented within the pages of Forest Science. Therefore, beginning in January 2014, regional applied research will be welcomed into Forest Science.1
To accommodate the integration of applied research, Forest Sciencewill double the number of pages printed within each issue. This new, larger Forest Science will be delineated into two core sections: "fundamental research" will report the traditional "deep science" forestry our readers have come to expect from the pages of Forest Science; and "applied research" will explore practices and techniques addressing the goods, services, and problems of forests and forestry within specific forest ecosystems. The editorial boards of the regional applied journals will join the Forest Science editorial board to oversee the "applied research" section; under this structure, we will maintain the strengths of each format, while reassuring authors and readers that there will be no blending or blurring of content or requirements. This new arrangement will allow us to better balance articles from across the country, more widely and quickly disseminate those articles, as thus better attract the best applied forestry research from not just across the United States, but from around the world.
We are excited about what this integration signifies for the dissemination of forestry research. We look forward to sharing the practices and techniques developed by our national and global colleagues toward strengthening our forest ecosystems, continuing Gifford Pinchot's promise of ensuring the use, preservation, and renewal of our forest resource "for the greatest good of the greatest number for the longest time."

Timesavers Around the Holidays.
The holidays can be stressful and anxiety-inducing, but a little organization goes a long way. Here are some tips from Joanna Zucker to help streamline the process this year and for years to come.
Make lists of what you need early:
- Thanksgiving meal – Create a folder with copies of your favorite recipes and the accompanying grocery shopping lists. No need to recreate the meal each year (unless you like to of course) - simply pull out the folder with your menu and you're ready to shop.
- Christmas gifts – think about each person on your list from kids, to family, friends, teachers, caregivers, postman, paper delivery boy, cleaning ladies, and so on. Put your list in your PDA or purse so it is readily available to you for reference.
Determine how you like to shop. Are you a binge shopper? The type who just likes to take a day and either hit the local shopping area or outlet mall and tick everything on your list? Or are you the type who likes to pick up things as you see them. Either way always have your list with you (consider putting it on your I Phone, Blackberry, Palm or other device).
In early November sit down and fill out your holiday calendar. Think about: work events, events that you host, children's school events, "memory making" events (ala going to see the tree get lit in town, viewing Christmas light displays, going to see Santa, Menorah lighting for Hanukkah at the Temple or Church events.)
Once you choose the dates for the events you will host, get your invite ready. Consider using: Electronic invite through Evite or other sites, sending your invite out via email to save postage, some trees and time. I like to buy nice decorated paper ahead of time when I see it on sale (Kinko's and Staples are great places to look after holidays) and print them at home for those invitations that have to be postal-mailed.

Rutgers is the next round, yikes, thats a tough draw
Do we know what time yet?
Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.

What does that tell you?

It's easy to refute an argument if you first misrepresent it. William Keizer
I'd put anything by Israel Kirzner on here. Awesome guy.
I found it a provocative critique of basic Neoclassical theory. The second half of the book (where Keen presents his own theory) I think is pretty bad, including his critique of Say's Law and his reformulation of Marxism.
Ty for restoring my faith in you.

How is this relevant ?
I have noticed that "Modern Monetary Theory" has been growing in influence without any real challenge. I know Robert Murphy challenged it, however I don't think it was devastating because he self admittingly didn't deeply understand it.
What's to deeply understand? The idea is simple: The govt has a printing press, will use it, and thats good for everyone concerned, as long as they dont print so much that they cause hyperinflation, or maybe normal inflation, whatever.
If they can print tons of free money, they dont need to collect taxes, obviously. [Here's where he forgets about the inflation proviso] Therefore, since everything the govt does is for a good logical reason beneficial to the economy, there must be another reason they collect taxes. And what is it? Some ridiculous thing or other, I don't remember, maybe to give value to the money, since you need it to pay taxes.
The top guy propounding this visited the forums here a while back, and IMHO was demolished.

Yea, but I have to re-read a lot of the book. And, Keen invokes Sraffa, and I feel that I should have a stronger handle on him.
Btw, if we're collecting online source material: Piero Sraffa, Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities. Just be happy we he (Freudian slip?) only provided a "prelude," and as far as I know nobody has gone much beyond it.
LOL, i feel the same way Catalan. There is a lot of narrative, labels and omissions that can be critiqued but it might become to much to nitpick about.

I guess I have the only RE that leaks oil, just my luck.
Royal Enfield has a long and proud history of leaking oil.
You have the twin to my ride TW, right? I am taken mine in to Rons this weekend for some minor adjustments and her first oil change. If'n you want I can let him know bout you sight glass leak.
This is going to BE a problem if not addressed. The sight glass pushes into the case from the OUTSIDE and has no mechanical fixture to hold it there, other than a little friction on the rubber sealing ring. Any oil that gets past it is going to wet the seal and make it MORE prone to removing itself under the slightest crankcase pressure. I sent one flying across the room with 8psig as a test ... I made the suggestion that the sight glass should have an e-clip or a circlip or SOME sort of mechanical fixture to it .... but I guess a dozen or so "hard" improvements were enough. I'd take the thing to a machine shop and have a groove cut around the inside of the sight glass hole to allow mechanical fixing of the thing. That way, if it DOES leak - it isn't going to pop out and toss all the oil all at once .......
Jesus H. Christ, Bob, you really know how to scare a guy. Mine's not leaking at all and now I want to fix it!

Video: Police investigate an off-campus shooting in Auburn, Alabama
AUBURN, Ala. -- Authorities searched Monday for a gunman suspected of killing three people and wounding three others in a weekend shooting at a pool party near Auburn University that a witness said began with a fight over a woman.
RELATED | Second man arrested in Auburn shooting
The triple homicide has rattled Auburn, Ala. Among the dead are two members of the university's 2010 national championship football team.
Police were searching for Desmonte Leonard, 22, of Montgomery. Police Chief Tommy Dawson said Leonard shot six people, three fatally, during a fight at a pool party Saturday. He faces three counts of capital murder.
Dawson said Leonard fled the scene in a white Chevrolet that he abandoned on the way back to Montgomery, about 55 miles away. They believed he was in the Montgomery area.
Killed were former Auburn football players Ed Christian and Ladarious Phillips, and Auburn resident Demario Pitts.
Current player Eric Mack was hospitalized, Dawson said. Head coach Gene Chizik said Mack was expected to make a full recovery.
Also wounded: John Robertson and Xavier Moss. Robertson was in critical condition with a head wound, police said. Moss was released from the hospital.
"This is a sad, sad day for everyone associated with the entire Auburn family," Chizik said. "We have a lot of people on our football team that are hurting right now, and we're going to do everything we can to help them get through this."
Turquorius Vines, 23, said he and Pitts were approached by two men at the party who started arguing with them over a woman.
Vines said he punched one of the men while Pitts hit both of them over the head with a bottle. Either one or both of the men then started shooting, he said.
Vines said he had never seen the men before.
Auburn Mayor Bill Ham said, "We are distraught that violence was used in such a senseless way and young lives were lost."
Leonard has been arrested in the past for failure to pay child support, second-degree assault and theft of property and possession of a handgun without a license.
"This is a trying time," Dawson said. "Not only university students and athletes, but it's young people. It's six young people that have been shot. As you can tell, the community is shaken by this and grieving today. ... Them being football players really has nothing to do with this. They're victims of a shooting."

WASHINGTON (Aisha Chowdhry, WUSA9) -- The National Gallery of Art's latest exhibition tells the story of the first official African American Regiment in the Union Army.
Vintage photographs, hand-written notes, and a Medal of Honor; are among some of the artifacts on display at the gallery.
At a pre-opening event, many came to celebrate this occasion, including Col. Fern O. Sumpter, who is the Joint Base Commander at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall in Virginia.
"Surreal, incredible, spectacular...difficult," she says of her role as a successful woman in the U.S. Army.
It's the challenges that drive her to be at the post she is today, giving a speech at the National Gallery of Arts, 150 years after President Abraham Lincoln ordered the Emancipation Proclamation, after which the first official African American Regiment was formed.
"I want you to prove yourselves, the eyes of thousands will look on what you do tonight," she reads the words of Col. Robert Shaw which he spoke to the 54th Massachusetts Regiment before they charged at Morriss Island in Charleston, South Carolina.
Today, Col. Sumpter is proving that being an African American has no boundaries.
She is only one of two females to hold this position and the first African American woman to do so.
"For this I thank the brave soldiers of the 54th Massachusetts Regiment and all of the African American soldiers, sailors and airmen and marines who followed and proved that the color of our skin cannot be used to measure our intellect, our courage or our ability," she said.

A Cover Truck Chock-Full of Trick Paint and Body TipsWritten by on October 1, 1999 Contributors: John Faulkner Truckers Truck
What kind of a pickup truck do you think a professional over-the-road truck driver would own? A darn nice one! John and Susan Brown just couldnt own a cookie-cutter truck, so they purchased this 55 Ford almost complete in 1995 and proceeded to customize it to suit them.
They added the flames and pinstriping, the interior, the bedcover, new rims, and more. The Centari paint is a custom blend of Freightliner Yellow (of course!) with Dark Grape flames (and a hot pink overlay) from Renes Custom Graphics in Lindsay, California. Another eye- catcher? Tru-Spoke wheels, something you dont see very often anymore on custom trucks, and this pickup sure looks good with them. Maybe a new/old trend will take over again.

Lowering A Model A Lid, Part 1 - Chop Top BasicsWritten on August 1, 2012
OK, so you have decided to chop the top on your hot rod. Your next decision will be how much. The height and length of your torso will be factors in this decision. Also, you want the car to be proportional. A good rule is two-thirds body, one-third top.
The current victim scheduled for surgery is a '31 Ford Model A. For good proportioning, a 4-inch chop on a '30-31 body will achieve this, but your taste and requirements will vary.
This month we'll focus on the major cerebral surgery: cutting and setting the top. Next month we are going to sweat the small stuff: trim, wood, garnish moldings, and windshield frame.
Special thanks to my friend Mark Anderson who helped me collaborate on some of these solutions.

1 Before we cut the top, we removed the vertical wood on each side of the rear window. You can cut right through it but it makes for a stronger frame if you remove and rework it. More on this later.5 Before we cut the top, we removed the whole outer skin of the A-pillar. The cut was made in the inside corner by the windshield and the other was about 1/4 inch from the rear edge.6 With the top off, it's a good time to weld up any areas that would be difficult to do upside down.7 Since the A-pillar is tapered it can be difficult to join the outer skin without pie cutting. This way we can remove a little material on the removed piece and fit it in without a seam in the middle. But the most important reason is because of the structural metal under the A-pillar skin. Unless you remove it, you will not be able to join these parts for a proper strength. Now you can weld it up solid for strength.8 Now we can bring the top together with the body. With the help of these butt-weld clamps from Eastwood, it will ensure an even distance between the two panels. The metal tends to buckle in, so as you weld this seam it is important to hammer out the metal from the inside as you go. (Tip: If you grind a slight taper to the sliver that goes between the metal panels you will find it easier to remove them afterward.)
10 As you are tacking the posts together you want to use a straightedge on the outside. Also, make sure the reveal line lines up perfectly.11 We welded the top from the inside. As this will be covered with upholstery there is no need for dressing these welds, plus the seam will be stronger for it.
20 This channel is used to hold the wind lacing later so it has to remain just that: a channel. In order to avoid filling it with weld I used a flattened-out copper pipe. The weld does not stick to the copper so it is a perfect material for backing the weld seam.21 This channel is used to hold the wind lacing later so it has to remain just that: a channel.

Cashing in on March Madness
By Kristyn Conley
Hurricane High School
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- So many people in the world need help. Some may be right next door, while others may be overseas. There are many ways to give back to those in need, and Hurricane High School has found a fun way to do just that.
"March Madness," a two-week charity drive, started March 18 as an engaging way for the school to give back to the community. Each grade level was given a charity or cause to donate money to. Freshmen raised money for the National Down Syndrome Society, sophomores for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, juniors for Ronald McDonald House and seniors for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
The winning grade level gets double its normal lunchtime for a day. Everyone else has to go to class. Sounds inviting, huh?
The school also had other ways to raise money and get the students involved. Dress-up days were held March 27-29: Water Park Wednesday, Recycle Day on Thursday and College Pride Day on Friday.
Each student who dressed up each day was counted and a dollar added to the grade's charity. It became a competitive business.
On Recycle Day, students wore trash bags over their clothes and newspaper hats to promote the "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" slogan. On Water Park Wednesday, they put on swim trunks and bathing suits over their normal clothes, along with stylish floaties. On College Pride Day, they dressed up in outfits supporting their favorite colleges.
During lunch, students also participated in relays in the gym.
At the end of the two weeks, there was a grand finale of sorts. On Friday, classes were shortened to make room for the last events.
The first of those was the annual Hurricane Heart Walk, headed by Coach Perry Estep. It attracted many students, who all made at least a $10 donation towards the American Heart Association.
At the end of the day, the students and faculty faced off in a basketball game. There was a good effort by everyone, but the STUDENTS/FACULTY emerged victorious.
Hurricane's "March Madness" was filled with fun, creativity and humble donations to awesome charities. Students were mixed on the idea of it, though.
Senior Emmalee Ellison said, "Well, it's for a good cause, but the way I see it is that it's just another homecoming week -- you know, with the dressing up and games. I don't mind it, but maybe it should be more original."
Meanwhile, junior Kari Barton said, "It's a good idea to raise money for charities, and why not have a spirit week in spring? Double the fun for one year!"
At the end of the day, the students and faculty faced off in a basketball
game. The faculty won, beating the students 23-19.
In the end, "March Madness" raised nearly $8,000 for charity, including $1,700 from the heart walk and the grade level totals. The freshman won with $1,700 raised, followed by the sophomores with $923, the seniors with $700 and the juniors with $666.
