The 63rd Grand National Roadster ShowWritten by on April 30, 2012 Contributors: Eric Geisert, Tim Bernsau Just Call It the Grand Daddy Of Them All
Of all the car shows held nation-wide, only the Grand National Roadster Show is constantly referred to as the Grand Daddy of them all. Maybe that's because it's the longest running show around, it is indeed the best, or possibly because not everyone is sure of its real name.
Some of the confusion about the show was the result of a name change early on. First held in 1950 at the Oakland Exhibition Hall, it was called the National Roadster Show. The event was moved to the larger Oakland Coliseum where, in 1963, it was advertised as the Grand National Roadster Show. However, by that time it was best known by the name it was never officially given, the Oakland Roadster Show, or Oakland for short. But there were more changes to come that would confuse the issue. The next home for the GNRS was San Francisco, first to the Concourse, then to the Cow Palace, and next it was held at the San Mateo Fairgrounds. The running joke was that the suspense wouldn't be who would win the 9-foot tall America's Most Beautiful Roaster trophy, but where it would be awarded.
While there had been a number of surprises concerning the location of the show, none were greater than the announcement that its new producer, John Buck, was moving the long running Northern California event to the L.A. County Fairplex in Pomona.
Along with the gutsy change of venue, Buck has introduced a number of unique features to the iconic event, and one of our favorites is the outside show called the Grand Daddy Drive-In. Thanks to plenty of open space surrounding the multiple buildings that house the show vehicles, and the usually nice SoCal weather, this outdoor addition has become an annual event. Registration is open to pre-'73 cars and trucks. Participants get to drive their vehicles onto the grounds for VIP parking and receive a dash plaque, goody bag (pre-registered only) and admission to the show. A number of magazines, including Custom Classic Trucks, give out awards to their favorites. There are no rules for our pick so the choice is usually based on a simple process, it comes down to the truck we'd like to drive home. This year we chose Mike Hoguin's '55 Chevy.
While the official name of this event is the Grand National Roadster Show, to some old-timers it will always be the Oakland Roadster Show no matter where it's held, then again some refer to it as the GNRS and a few are starting to call it Pomona. Of course, you'll never go wrong if you just call it the Grand Daddy of all car shows. CCT

Scott Robert's '41 Ford pickup was recently completed by Hot Rods and Custom Stuff, in Escondido, CA. Underhood is a fully detailed Flathead V-8 with Edelbrock finned aluminum heads and a two carb manifold mounting Stromberg 97s.The Big Daddy Drive-In outside show never fails to draw some interesting participants, such as Ted Silver's '47 Ford truck. Note the unique under-slung front suspension. The frame-rails run below the axle and the springs.Underhood is a small-block Chevy neatly camouflaged with Cadillac rocker covers and an oil-bath air cleaner. Note the firewall-mounted canteen used for a brake reservoir.Probably not the most efficient truck for making deliveries, Marion and Lynn Marquez own this '36 Ford pickup that wears the name of their dairy on the doors. Power comes from a blown Flathead exhaling through straight pipes.In the "Suede Palace" portion of the show, we found Jason Pall's '34 Ford pickup. Originally built on the east coast in the '60s, the cab has been channeled 8 inches and chopped 3 inches. The small-block Chevy engine is topped by a half-dozen Stromberg 97s.Pete Wittenberg of Pete's Rod and Custom showed up with his '58 Chevy Apache. The body has undergone tasteful changes—the trim along with the door handles have been removed and a visor was added—but the scallops and the ripple caps with wide whites remind us of the mild customs of days gone by.Once a family ranch truck, Tony Carrillo was given this '49 Chevy pickup when he was 11 years old. Since then he's done his first top chop, lowerering the lid 3 inches. Underhood is a 235 six with a Clifford intake and homemade headers backed by an S-10 T5.
Louie Aguilar's '72 Chevy C10 is a great example of what makes these trucks so popular. Great factory styling along with plenty of aftermarket parts, lowering kits and a huge selection of custom wheels make them a natural to build.The straight body and nice detailing on David Fields' '57 Chevy caught our attention, then we looked in the bed.We found that Fields was hauling a '58 Ans Craft quarter midget originally sold by Ansen Automotive. Could it be that a young Dave was once behind the wheel?Said to be a clone of a GM concept truck, the Cameo/Nomad inspired Suburban was build by Vince Borzilieri and the crew at JV Enterprises. A massive amount of work went into chopping the top slightly both above and below the drip rail.This lakes pipes rubbing '63 Chevy Suburban belongs to Ron Median. Power comes from a 350 Chevy backed by a 700R4 trans. Rolling on 15-inch Supremes while the stance is courtesy of air bags all around. Inside are seats out of an '05 Tahoe.A variety of influences can be seen at the rear in the Cameo quarters, taillights, Nomad style tailgate, and lift-up window. We'd bet Chevrolet would have sold a ton of these.We awarded our Custom Classic Trucks Editor's pick to Mike Hoguin. His '55 Chevy has a ZZ4 and 700R4 engine and trans combo. Front suspension is a Camaro clip in back is a 12-bolt Chevy rear end on air bags held in place by ladder bars and a Panhard rod.Albert Larrea's '56 F-100 wears a unique shade of gunmetal gray over its perfectly straight sheetmetal. All the emblems and the vent windows have been removed and the bumpers have been moved in. Underhood is a late-model Ford powerplant.

Sharma and Ondra Gunning for World's Hardest Route
Yesterday Adam Ondra came painfully close to sending La Dura Dura, the Sharma project at Oliana which may be the world's hardest route. Reportedly falling two moves away from easier climbing, Ondra seems poised to send.
But Chris Sharma, who bolted La Dura Dura [The Hard Hard], has also climbed through the powerful beginning boulder problem. However, Ondra's attempt yesterday marks the route's highpoint, which is only halfway up the 165-foot route. But as one bystander reported to 8a.nu, "[Ondra] dominated Oliana today, and for sure he will send it this weekend with better conditions." Check out this photo of Ondra climbing through the bottom crux, taken yesterday during his highpoint-go by Bernardo Gimenez.

AG045: A Togepi Mirage!
Redirected from A Togepi Mirage!
this wiki
A Togepi Mirage! (Japanese: 蜃気楼の彼方に!トゲピーの楽園! Towards The Mirage! Togepi's Paradise!!) is the 5th episode of Pokémon: Advanced Challenge.
During the reunion with their old friend Misty, Ash and co. discover Hanson wants to rule the Togepi Kingdom and the Mirage Kingdom. Can they be able to stop him, and will Misty say good-bye to the Pokémon she cared for so long?
Episode Plot
Hanson's Shedinja attacks with Solar Beam and Ninjask Hyper Beam. Togepi, however, has an aura that protects them from harm. It used Safeguard and the temple mirage powers Togepi even more and after the light fades, the gang is gone. The woman says they are inside Togepi's paradise, amazing everyone. However, the paradise seems to become dead, with all the plants dead. Togepi arrives to see more Togepi, but they seem quite weak. After May scanned Togepi, they learn that Hanson's goals are making Togepi weak.
Shedinja uses Solar Beam, powering the gate to Togepi Paradise. The gang notices a blue light for a second from Shedinja and Ninjask's attacks. They see a portal where Hanson and Team Rocket are seen. Togepi goes to the outside world and Ash goes as well, but fails. Ninjask use Shadow Ball on Togepi and it falls down. Hanson takes the Togepi and goes away. Misty is furious and, with Ash, tries to open the portal. The other Togepi glow and open the gate, making the gang come once more in Mirage Kingdom. Hanson demands the throne, but the King does not allow.
Jessie announces that Hanson became the king, showing Togepi near him. So, the gang needs to rescue the princess's parents and Togepi itself! Team Rocket expects rewards, but Hanson orders them to leave the kingdom. When they refuse, Shadinja uses Solar Beam and Ninjask use Hyper Beam, blasting them off. Ash's Taillow and May's Beautifly go to scout, but they don't see the King. Hanson starts the ceremony, placing Togepi on a pedestal and naming himself the King.
Team Rocket arrives to the Kingdom, angry that Hanson betrayed them. They spot Brock, Max and a servant going, so they plan to take revenge on Hanson. Jessie and James disguise as fortune tellers and make Brock, the servant and Max look into the Hanson's basement. When they think for a while, Team Rocket disappear. Taillow appears before Hanson during the opening of the gate, so he calls Shedinja and Ninjask. The rest of the gang appears as well, ready for battle.
May brings Torchic and uses Ember on Ninjask. Howeer, the other one hits Torchic with Shadow Ball, so May calls it back. Pikachu uses Thunder, defeating the Ninjask. Shedinja uses Solar Beam, but is stopped by the Togepi from the Paradise's Safeguard. The Togepi share their power with the one in Hanson's hands and it evolves - evolves into Togetic! Shedinja uses Solar Beam, but Togepi and Togetic use Safeguard. The aura gets stronger and Misty brings Gyarados and it uses Flamethrower, defeating Shedinja.
The King arrives, condemning Hanson for treason. Team Rocket is pleased for the punishment Hanson deserves. The Togepi go to the Paradise and Togetic's wish is to stay in Paradise, to protect the Kingdom from harm. Misty supports the idea, making a final hug before it goes to Paradise. The Togepi and Togetic enter the Paradise and the mirage disappears. Sara promises to defend the Mirage Kingdom. She notices one Togepi did not return, but the servant says that it must be the Togepi Sara must have found.
Misty must go back to Cerulean City, with Ash promising to win Hoenn League and May winning Pokémon Contests. Peace is restored in Togepi Paradise and Togetic enjoying the place.
- Featured Pokémon: Marshtomp, Mudkip, Marill, Surskit.
- Answer: Mudkip
- This episode has an exact year between the Japanese and US airing.
- Once again, Misty pulls Brock's ear.
- Misty's Togetic was the first Pokémon to take so long to evolve. The second was Ash's Cyndaquil, which didn't evolve until near the end of Sinnoh League Victors.

The 11th Goodguys Columbus PPG Nationals - The Columbus Contingent - Expanded For Web!Written by on October 6, 2008
The Goodguys PPG Nationals at the Ohio Expo Center in Columbus is one of our favorite events-and it is for the participants, too, it seems, as attendance is consistently high. Judging by the license plates we spotted, people come from far and wide to bring their cars to Columbus. This past July saw the Goodguys' 11th such event, and for those of us who usually only get to see earlier body styles, the cutoff of 1972 let us sample some later models for a few days. Who'd have thought a slammed and tastefully painted light metallic-green Maverick could look so good, for instance?
Work schedules mean we never make it out to National Trail Raceway for the Friday Night Drags, which is a great way to kick off the weekend, but on-site action this year included the Air Ride Technologies-sponsored Street Challenge Autocross for Street Machine of the Year participants, which was fun to watch, while the '08 Street Machine and Street Rod of the Year awards were also presented at the event. George Poteet took top honors in the street rod category with his Dave Lane-built '32 sedan delivery, seen recently in these very pages and on our website.
A couple thunderstorms Saturday and Sunday dampened the cars but not the spirits of the attendees, and the ground and cars were soon dry again. As is usual at any Goodguys event the R&C staff attends, we awarded our Top Tin picks, but the sheer number of great vehicles makes this harder than you'd think. OK, we're never going to convince you that going to shows is hard work, so check out what we thought was cool while out there enjoying ourselves.

It might look black, but that's dark-green paint on Bill Herb's '33 Ford highboy roadster, sitting on aftermarket 'rails with owner-built crossmembers. The engine is a Chevy 350 with Tri-power. It's a beauty and a driver-and all built by Bill except for Terry Watson's interior stitching. He also formed the top, and installed hinges and door-handle dimples to take the 'glass body closer to 1933.We ran into a young Matt Hayes and his '53 Chevy at last year's Columbus show and were impressed with his progress. The Chevy was missing a few key pieces last year, but it looked like Matt had been busy during the winter. He did the paint in his garage, and the Chevy features a 350/700-R4 combo, Total Cost Involved IFS, and a four-link with airbags and a C-notch.Charlie Edwards finished this LS2-powered '32 last year and was then promptly rear-ended, which put him in intensive care. Another Brookville body and another year of repairs saw him at Columbus. He fabricated the 109-inch wheelbase chassis himself and installed a '95 Z28 rearend narrowed 3 inches, and a six-speed trans. If you ever get to check out this roadster, ask Charlie to show you his flip-down dashboard, hiding all the electronics-it's impressive.Running across a car that the owner has built almost entirely by himself is rare these days. Finding one as nice as Scott Subler's '46 Ford coupe is really rare. Throw in the '95 Lincoln running gear and the fit and finish, and you have better luck finding a toothy chicken.Steve Lucas bought his '56 Merc already done, but it took a redo to realize its potential as a kustom. It now carries Packard taillights and frenched headlights, shaved doors and bumpers, a smoothed deck, and a Nova subframe.It's always fun to find a hot rod with some family history. Dwayne King's '47 Chevy has been in his family since 1966, and Dwayne drove it to high school with the old straight-six back in the early '80s. It has since received the hot rod treatment with a Fatman IFS, Air Ride triangulated four-link, and 350/350 combo.Gary Hoffman's clean little six-cylinder Rambler American was once a dealer car and remains mostly stock, with the exception of some custom taillights, lowered stance (courtesy of cut coils and lowering blocks in the back), and eye-catching copper paint-a Nissan color. The brand-new cloth top and alloy Eagle five-spokes are great additions. Builder Mike Wolverton came along to Columbus.Unbelievably, Frank Potter's '41 Chevy was built in the early '80s, but then that's what timeless styling is all about. There's a 289 Ford under the hood, as it fits the narrowed '72 Chevy subframe better than an SBC, and that roof has received a 31/2-inch slice, while the lights at each corner have been frenched.
Tom Lischke's '28 A closed cab was a hot rod before he bought it, but it had been rolled end over end! The 4.3 V-6-powered pickup sports a 700-R4 and quick-change rear, not to mention a sizeable body repair job.We gave Larry Bennett a Top Tin prize for the body-off rebuild on this '50 Bel Air, now pulled by an LS1 with a 4L60E automatic. Body mods include the frenched headlights, Ford taillights, shaved panels, a sectioned grille, a one-piece bumper, and an Olds one-piece windshield. The '00 Buick Regal GS seats are covered in Ultraleather. The fact that Larry drives the Chevy got our respect, too.Bill McCauley's '56 Ford convert made it down from Manhattan, IL. The orange custom is powered by a Tri-power-fed 312 backed by a four-speed manual. The white roof was offset by a matching pleated interior and wheelwell panels.Search the R&C Web site for a Web exclusive feature on Jim Roepke's '31 roadster. Since we first photographed Jim's Model A, he's swapped Flatheads. This one has aluminum Offenhauser heads and an Offy manifold, and a pair of Stromberg 81 carbs. The wire wheels and Firestones are changes, as well, replacing red steelies and whitewalls. The custom-built buckets are just the way we remembered.No fake patina here! This ex-roundy-round racer '34 had been tucked away for 50 years since it last raced in the early '50s. Now on the street with the minimum of modern equipment, it made its debut reappearance at Columbus.Dale and Sharon Surber gave their '39 Ford an early custom vibe thanks to the fender skirts, spots, and most noticeably, that pancaked hood, under which resides a 350 small-block. A blue and white tuck 'n' roll interior is complemented by a banjo 'wheel on a tilt column.Another in our gallery of early Ford hot rods we'd love to drive, Joe Albanese's well-worn Deuce three-window coupe features a '52 Flathead with Navarro heads, Edmunds intake, and a pair of Holley 94s. The trim rings and the low-key pinstriping along the beltline are the only things fancy on this cool coupe.Look closely and you can see the Hilborn injected inline-six with a custom intake under the hood of Parke Bishop's two-tone '53 Chevy. The paint is Hot Hues Sinful Cinnamon and Ginger Bronze, with brightwork finished in nickel. Suspension parts include a Heidts frontend, Baer brakes, and a Currie 9-inch rear.The challenge in building any '40 Merc custom, builder Joe Koenigsmark says, is to not build the Matranga Merc. He built this one for Nick Crea, customizing it with a full-length hood peak, chopped hardtop, and rolled-out lower doors and quarters. The Ford 302 is tied to a C4 trans. A Mustang II frontend and Lincoln Versaille rear were installed underneath the 'sled. It took the Meguiar's Magnificent Masterpiece award.
If you like your Fords powered by Fords, check out Bill and Maureen Cromling's '32 roadster. Not only does it run a 351W, but it also has three pedals, the left one releasing the clutch on a five-speed trans. Couple that with those skinny bias-plies and you know this is an entertaining ride!Rich and Sharon Hoefling restored the well-known Moonkist '23 T in recognition of its 30th anniversary, and it was a treat to see it at Columbus. The blown 396 big-block is topped by a trio of Edelbrock four-barrels, all supported by those skinny spindle mounts."Win or lose, follow me to Shady O'Grady's pub" is the legend sign written across the back of this heavily rust-pitted and faux-patina'd '48 Crossley. Dennis Arnold's '46 Ford grilled gem was one of our favorite cars of the weekend, not to mention in contention with the '38 Bantam pickup for smallest car of the weekend. No four-pot here, though, just 302 inches of Ford's finest.Brian Wisniewski's '32 Vicky may be finished in primer, but it looks perfect to our eyes. The tire choice and nerf bars hint at a circle-track influence, while the unfinished interior sports garnish moldings and a dash in the same color as the grille insert. You may just be able to make out the three wipers, too. Hey, it rains in New Jersey!The Geezer Gassers (www.geezergassers.com) is a touring team that races their vintage gassers at match races around the country. With no alcohol, and no electronics, they claim to be the only period-correct vintage race group in the U.S. This Chevy big-block-powered 9-second/140mph '40 Willys was a street rod before owner Ron Doran converted it to a drag car.Traditional early Fords are like potato chips-we can't stop with just one. Pat Larkin's '30 Model A coupe got it right with a 327, Weiand high-rise intake, and dual 4s, plus those nice flames and a red and white tuck 'n' roll interior. The little bit of red on the brakes, shocks, spindles, and block looks just right.Just under $30K could have seen you driving home in the Cozby family's refrigerator white '60 Impala, sitting pretty in white upholstery with red piping. With a 348 and TH350 under the hood, that grille from a same-year Mercury leads the way with style.Go on, tell us what it is! It's a mix of '38 Bantam body, Cushman pickup bed, and Toyota four-banger motor, with the radiator in the rear. It's also one of the smallest pickups we've ever seen; and with the doors welded shut, access is gained through the roof. Those crazy wheels are what sold us on it, though!
Dennis Foley's '50 Olds Holiday hardtop kept it in the family with a 455 motor and 400 trans. The frenched headlights kept the original flavor by retaining the stock parking lights' housings while gas struts held the hood open for everyone to enjoy the vintage engine.This '32 roadster was put together at the event, as part of the Christian Rodders & Racers Association's CRA Hot Rod Camp. The program gives teenage hot rodders (not shown) a chance to participate in putting together a hot rod. Work had actually started a week before, and final assembly was done at the Nats.

The Internet is a network that links millions of computers around the world. Not so long ago, few people had heard of the Internet. Today, the Internet has revolutionized how people use computers. Many people depend on it daily to communicate with others and to get the information they need. You don't have to connect your computer to the Internet, but once you do, you'll probably wonder how you lived without it.
The part of the Internet that most people are familiar with is the World Wide Web (usually called the Web, or web). The web is so popular that people often use the terms Internet and web to mean the same thing. But the Internet also includes other services, such as e‑mail, newsgroups, and file sharing. You can send an e‑mail message or participate in a newsgroup without using the web.
The web displays information in a colorful, visually appealing format. Headlines, text, and pictures can be combined on a single webpage (or page)—much like a page in a magazine—along with sounds and animation. A website (or site) is a collection of interconnected webpages. The web contains millions of websites and billions of webpages!
Webpages are connected to each other with hyperlinks (usually just called links), which can be text or images. When you click a link on a page, you are taken to a different page. Going from page to page using links is sometimes called surfing the web.
Find information. The web contains a vast amount of information—far more than even the world's largest libraries. For example, you can read news stories and movie reviews, check airline schedules, see street maps, get the weather forecast for your city, or research a health condition. Reference sources, such as dictionaries and encyclopedias, are widely available, as are historical documents and classic literature.
Most companies, government agencies, nonprofit organizations, museums, and libraries have websites with information about their products, services, or collections. Many individuals publish websites with personal journals called blogs (short for web logs) about their hobbies and interests.
Even though the web is great for research, not all information on the web is reliable. Information on some websites might be inaccurate, out of date, or incomplete. Before you trust information, make sure it comes from an authoritative source, and check other sources to verify the information.
Communicate. E‑mail is one of the most popular uses of the Internet. You can send an e‑mail message to anyone with an e‑mail address, and it will arrive almost instantly in the recipient's e‑mail inbox—even if he or she lives halfway around the world. See Getting started with e‑mail.
Instant messaging (IM) allows you to have a real-time conversation with another person or a group of people. When you type and send an instant message, the message is immediately visible to all participants. Unlike e‑mail, all participants have to be online (connected to the Internet) and in front of their computers at the same time.
Newsgroups and web-based forums allow you to participate in text-based discussions with a community of other people who are interested in the same topic. For example, if you are having trouble using a program, you could post a question in a discussion group for users of that program.
Share. You can upload (copy) pictures from your digital camera to a photo-sharing website. Invited friends and family members can then visit the website to view your photo albums.
Shop. The web is the world's biggest shopping mall. You can browse and purchase products—books, music, toys, clothing, electronics, and much more—at the websites of major retailers (usually a credit card is required). You can also buy and sell used items through websites that use auction-style bidding.
Play. You can play games of every type on the web, often against other players—no matter where they are in the world. Many games are free, and you can download others for a fee. You can also listen to Internet radio stations, watch movie clips, and download or purchase music, videos, and even some TV shows.
To connect your computer to the Internet, you must first sign up with an Internet service provider (ISP). An ISP provides access to the Internet, usually for a monthly fee. You sign up for an account with an ISP just as you do for telephone service or utilities. To find an ISP in your area, try looking in your telephone directory under "Internet Service Providers."
Different ISPs offer different connection types and speeds. There are two basic types of connections:
Broadband. A broadband connection is a high-speed Internet connection. With a broadband connection, you are connected to the Internet at all times and can view webpages and download files very rapidly. Two common broadband technologies are Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and cable technology. These require a DSL or cable modem, which is often provided by your ISP.
Dial-up. A dial-up connection uses a dial-up modem to connect your computer to the Internet through a standard telephone line. Many computers come with a dial-up modem already installed. In contrast to broadband, dial-up is slower and requires you to establish a new connection each time you want to use the Internet. However, dial-up is less expensive than broadband, and in some areas might be the only option for Internet access.
Once you have an ISP and a modem, you're ready to connect to the Internet. The Connect to the Internet wizard will guide you through the steps.
Open the Connect to the Internet wizard by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Network and Internet, clicking Network and Sharing Center, clicking Set up a connection or network, and then clicking Connect to the Internet.
Once you've established an Internet connection, you can access the web using Internet Explorer, a web browser included with Windows. You can also use any other web browser installed on your computer.
Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Internet Explorer.
When you start Internet Explorer, it opens whatever webpage is set as the home page. By default, the home page is set to MSN.com, a Microsoft website with links to a variety of information and services. (Your computer manufacturer might have set up a different home page.) However, you can choose any page (or a blank page) as your home page. See Change your Internet Explorer home page.
Just as every residence has a unique street address, every webpage has its own web address. That address is called the URL. For example, the URL for the Microsoft main website is http://www.microsoft.com.
If you know the URL for a page, you can type it directly into Internet Explorer:
In the Address box, type the URL.
Click the Go button or press ENTER to go to the website.
You don't have to type http://. For example, you can type www.microsoft.com and Internet Explorer will fill in the rest.
To quickly enter a URL ending in ".com", type the part between "www." and ".com" and then press CTRL+ENTER.
Using links. Most webpages have dozens or even hundreds of links. To get from one page to another, click any link. However, figuring out which things on a page are links isn't always easy. Links can be text, images, or a combination of both. Text links often appear as colored and underlined, but link styles vary among websites.
To test whether something is a link or not, point to it. If it's a link, two things happen:
The mouse pointer changes to a hand with a pointing finger.
A URL appears in the status bar of your web browser. This shows the website you'll go to if you click the link.
Using the Back and Forward buttons. As you go from page to page, Internet Explorer keeps track of your trail. To get back to the previous page, click the Back button. Click the Back button several times to retrace your steps even further. After you've clicked the Back button, you can click the Forward button to go forward in the trail.
Using the Recent Pages menu. If you want to get back to a page you've visited in your current session, but want to avoid repeatedly clicking the Back or Forward buttons, use the Recent Pages menu. Click the arrow next to the Forward button, and then select a page from the list.
With billions of webpages out there, finding the information you need would be impossible if you had to browse through each one. Fortunately, there's another way. You can use a search engine to find the pages that are most relevant to words or phrases that you specify.
Major web search engines include Google, Yahoo! Search, MSN Search, AOL Search, and Ask.com. You can search the web directly from any search engine's site. Or, to save the step of navigating to the search site first, you can use the Search box in Internet Explorer, shown here:

|Saga of the banana cream pies
By Lori PankoninCo-Publisher
I needed to provide a couple desserts for a luncheon, so why not double the recipe to make it easier?
On second thought, my favorite recipe takes more time with separate layers so I'll make one Chocolate Butterfinger Delight and stir up some Frosted Pumpkin Bars during the waiting time.
The crust was baking so I began to mix the cream cheese and whipped cream layer.
The cream cheese was softened as needed in the bowl, but I rationalized that since the pumpkin bars would need baked, I'd go ahead and get them stirred up and ready to put in the oven.
Oil, sugar, eggs. The phone rang and I continued my task as I opened the can of pumpkin, dumping it onto the cream cheese in the bowl.
Cream cheese??!! The pumpkin doesn't go on the cream cheese!! That was for the other dessert. So I began scooping it off, leaving traces of the orangish substance on what was to be a white layer. No problem. Why not have a variation, making a Pumpkin Butterfinger Delight? But I still needed the pumpkin for the bars that were half mixed.
So I continued scraping what I could of the pumpkin and actually rinsed and shook the cream cheese in an attempt to dry it and bring it back to its white normal consistency. Well, close.
Back I went to the pumpkin mixture, measuring the dry ingredients. It was ready for baking. Voila!
Pleasant aroma from the bars filled the room as I finished the fifth layer on the other dessert. Now all that was left was to frost the bars in the morning.
As I cleaned up, it crossed my mind that my husband would be gone on his birthday. I should make his favorite, banana cream pie, to share at the office on press day. Should I start the crust now? No. I'd had enough for the night.
The desserts got delivered the next morning. Once again, I stayed longer than intended at the office after closing time. It's so much fun there, you know.
A call found me meeting my nephew at the boat dock to bring the boat back to town, accompanied by my grandson. It was so calm and beautiful, but darkness was upon us so we just loaded up and headed back home.
Oh. I still need to make those pies. The crusts rolled out rather easily this time and awaited the filling. What's nice about making something from scratch is we typically have the basic ingredients on hand. Flour, oil, eggs, sugar, milk and some cornstarch for the never-fail meringue. Oh, and bananas. Bananas! We don't have any bananas. Nothing like a banana-less banana cream pie.
Well, the crusts browned up nicely and I could get up early in the morning to cook the cream filling, heading off to the store for bananas to stir into the warm concoction.
Acting like I'm an organized person, I went ahead and separated the eggs, set whites aside for the meringue and the yolks for the filling. Gee. Might as well add the rest of the wet ingredients and refrigerate, then mix the dry ingredients in another bowl before hitting the hay. Everything is ready to simply mix together and cook.
Remembering that the cream mixture scorches easily if you cook it on too high of heat, I vowed to be patient and keep it on lower heat from the start.
Why is it that we women feel like we need to multi task? I actually grabbed the mop and mopped the kitchen floor, stopping every few glides to stir. Stir. Stir. Stir. Then I started unloading the dishwasher, again stirring between reaches.
Whoa. This REALLY does require patience. Since I had doubled the ingredients, I looked back over the required measurements. Had I doubled the flour? Yes.
I sprinkled in more flour for thickening, causing clumps that needed stirred vigorously. Then I tasted it. Yuk. What is wrong with this? I glanced at the clock and couldn't believe how much time I'd spent stirring, to no avail.
Off I went to the office (without pies in hand). It was payday and that's just one task I don't dare put off until tomorrow. After I got to a certain point that I could take a break, I went to the store for bananas, determined to succeed at the pie plan. After all, there were crusts waiting.
I started cracking eggs. What is in this other bowl? Oh my gosh! There were the dry ingredients that I mixed the night before. Had I only imagined stirring the mix in with the milk, egg yolks and vanilla? No wonder it never thickened. And no wonder it had no sweetness. Now I knew the cause for the failure.
Stir. Stir. It did thicken up this time. The meringue turned out. And I did get back to the office. But by the time there was a break between press runs, it was lunch time. And the birthday boy had a lunch meeting. So those who were left took a quick moment of celebration. And off Russ went to his lunch meeting after his pie appetizer.
It certainly holds true that sometimes it's the thought that counts, even when it becomes a fiasco. Many more, Russ.

There doesn't appear to be a lot of traction for getting a new jail and public safety center built in Mills County.
A citizen's committee, put together in 2008 to study the issue and develop a proposal to replace or renovate the nearly century-old Mills County Jail and Sheriff's Office building in Glenwood, has disbanded and the county board of supervisors must now decide what direction to go on the matter.
The Fremont-Mills softball team rolled into the Class 1A regional semifinals for the third straight year on Friday with a 11-2 victory over Sidney.
The Knights (26-9 overall, 12-0 in the Corner Conference) smacked 15 hits off Sidney starter Darrian Slater. Mindy Lorimor and Emily Smith each had three hits and drove in a run. Kendall Fichter went 2-for-5 and drove in three runs.
Lorimor was again dominant in the circle, striking out 11, allowing seven hits and just one earned run in the victory.
The Glenwood baseball team went 2-0 and outscored its opponents 20-1 at the Omaha South Invitational at Omaha's Brown Park over the weekend.
Glenwood (23-6 overall, 15-1 in the Hawkeye 10 Conference) knocked off the host Packers 10-1 and came back on Saturday to defeat Bennington, Neb. 10-0 in five innings.
In game one, Matt Schulz (3-1) tossed a four hit gem, striking out nine and allowing one earned run.
In the tournament capper, Alec Forbes earned the victory pitching four scoreless innings and striking out eight in four innings of work.
It's been a long haul for Glenwood Transit Line.
Seventy-one years to be exact.
The freight, transport and storage business has been a staple of the Glenwood community since shortly after the Great Depression, but Clarence Boles, Jr., and his wife, Helen, say the time is right to close up shop.
"It's neat after this length of time to say we're closing with a positive attitude," Helen said
during an interview last week. "We're not being forced to do this. We're doing this because the time has come."
COUNCIL BLUFFS - Chloe Newman's bases clearing double lifted the Glenwood softball team to a 6-3 victory over Council Bluffs Lewis Central on Friday morning.
The game was the conclusion of an extra-inning game the two teams started on June 17 but was suspended in the ninth inning due to lightening strikes.
A pair of pitching gems by Mindy Lorimor led the Fremont-Mills softball team to a Corner Conference sweep of Sidney on Thursday.
In game one Lorimor fanned 12 and allowed five hits in a 10-0, six inning victory. In the capper, Lorimor no-hit the Cowgirls in a 2-0 win. In the two games the junior fanned 19, allowed five hits and just one walk.
Lorimor added four hits and an RBI at the plate.
Madison Powers added four hits and three RBIs.
Glenwood 10,
Fremont-Mills 0
The Fremont-Mills baseball team could muster just four hits in a 11-4 Corner Conference loss to Sidney on Thursday.
Austin Hansen had two hits and Clayton Wilson and Austin Switzer one each for the Knights.
Derrian Bredberg took the loss on the hill for Fremont-Mills, allowing seven hits and five earned runs while striking out eight.
Stanton 20,
Fremont-Mills 9
Stanton and Fremont-Mills combined for 26 hits and 29 runs in a 20-9, five inning Viking victory at Tabor City Park last Tuesday.
It was a tale of two games for the Glenwood baseball team in Hawkeye 10 Conference double-header split with Denison on Thursday.
In game one, the Rams committed a season-high 11 errors in a 19-18 loss won by a Grady Thies walk-off solo home run in the bottom of the seventh.
In game two, Glenwood bounced backed, thanks to a sterling two-hit shutout win by Taylor Kaufman, to post a 11-0 victory in five innings.
For Glenwood coach Bret Elam, his team's Jeckyl and Hyde persona has been plaguing the Rams for the last two weeks.
After a nine-year tenure as superintendent of the Glenwood Community School District, Dr. Stan Sibley has retired and turned over the reigns to his successor, Devin Embray.
The changing of the guard took place Thursday, July 1, the first day of the district's 2010-2011 fiscal year.
Stephen H. Beattie, 55, of Malvern, is facing multiple charges following a high-profile investigation of alleged sexual misconduct at a Malvern funeral home.
Beattie is charged with third-degree sexual abuse (a Class C felony), lascivious acts with a minor (serious misdemeanor) and indecent exposure (serious misdemeanor). The charges were announced Thursday afternoon by Mills County Sheriff Eugene Goos.

Great for the price and it locks
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I have the stock roof rack for a subaru and it fits it perfect. The way it is built I belive it would fit most roof racks including stock and after market. They bolt right on with six bolts. The lock seems pretty sturdy or at least sturdy enough to discourage someone from stealing a bike. The biggest down fall is that it make a little extra wind noise but that is expected. Great buy considering it is half the price of the other products.
Will this work with 15/20mm thru axles and/or 15mm QR's?

Removing viral contaminants from animal cell-culture derived biologicals is a major challenge of downstream purification because it involves laborious and time-consuming techniques that result in increased manufacturing costs. Updated regulatory guidelines demanding higher safety margins and enforcing good manufacturing practices are leading to tighter specifications. This stresses the need to implement robust and efficient orthogonal strategies for virus clearance to meet the requirements of a virus-clearance approach based on risk assessment. Such technologies can involve virus removal by nanofiltration, inactivation by ultraviolet C (UVC), and adsorption by membrane chromatography. Additionally, this three-tier platform should be characterized by using disposables to meet the flexibility and low capital requirements needed in early-stage process development. All of these new paradigms in virus clearance are scalable, economical, orthogonal, and disposable.
Viruses are composed of small amounts of DNA or RNA, encapsulated by a protein coat, and may be enclosed in an envelope made of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Viruses exploit the enzymes and other host-cell machinery to replicate themselves. The viral nucleic acid can be single-or double-strand DNA or RNA. A single virion is a completely developed virus particle made of 1–50% nucleic acid and 50–99% proteins or glycoproteins and lipids. Virions range from about 15 to 450 nm in size.

Town of Hempstead hires demographic consultant for redistricting
1 2 Next page >
The Town of Hempstead Board voted unanimously on Feb. 19 to hire a private company, Skyline Demographic Consultants Inc., to provide the town with demographic information about its residents, which town officials plan to use to redraw geographic lines for its six electoral districts.
The Town of Hempstead comprises six districts, known as councilmatic districts, which each elects one representative to the Town Board. The current board is made up of five Republicans and one Democrat, Dorothy Goosby. Town Supervisor Kate Murray, a Republican, also has a vote on the board.
Goosby and two of the Republican board members, Angie Cullin and Edward Ambrosino, were absent from Tuesday's vote.
Skyline provided similar demographic consulting services to the Nassau County Temporary Districting Advisory Commission in 2011 as it revised district maps for the Nassau County Legislature, where the Republican Party is also in the majority. The town is required by law to redraw its districts once every 10 years to reflect demographic changes during that time.
Some at Tuesday's board meeting, including Bob Young of Merrick, first deputy leader of the Hempstead Town Democratic Committee, raised questions about the town's $5,000 contract with Skyline and concerns about the transparency and fairness of the town's redistricting process.
"Will the consultants run public hearings before the maps are developed?" Young asked. "Will they hold at least one hearing in each of the six council districts? Will any hearings be at a time when working men and women can attend to express their concerns without having to take personal time off from work? Will the [board] hold hearings both before map proposals are developed and before the [board] votes on the map?"
Town Supervisor Kate Murray said that the town would hold a public hearing on redistricting. A hearing date, she said, is yet to be determined, adding that town officials have not decided whether there would be more than one hearing.

It is unfortunate that a process that is so important to all town residents will be conducted behind closed doors by a private entity. Also, why was the vote conducted with half the council missing, especially Councilwoman Goosby, the only minority member of the council? Sounds like a rubber stamp.
Saturday, February 23, 2013 | Report this
I just can not get past this part:
"The Hempstead Town Board on Tuesday approved a $5,000 contract with Schenectady-based Skyline Demographic Consultants Inc. to help with the town's upcoming redistricting."
I did some research:
Who is Skyline Demographic Consultants Inc?
Comes back to a private home in the middle of no mans land.
Means nothing yet, many people work out of their homes.
Not saying a website is necessary for a business but their is none that I can find.
Is the company called Skyline Demographic Consultants Inc or should
it be called Skyline Political Organization Inc.
Who is this David Schaefer with the company????
Note: don't be fooled by the word Skyline in the name it is the name of the street the address is located....
Sounds more like a made up company.
Where are their references?
Did the TOH check them out or is this another political scam?
Smells rotten really really rotten..
Please prove me wrong......

Looking to by some new clothing! willing to spend the money! Im looking at sitka and kuiu. any insight?
I went with Kuiu...the only problem is they are a little backed up at the moment so you might not get gear for a hunt this year. First Lite is also excellent, merino Kanab pants included.
Got them both you can't go wrong with either
I run sigma. It has performed very well and I 100% trust the gear. I really like the kuiu as well but they definitely need to up the production if they want happy customers. Both are great companies. Don't count out kryptek. Just to throw some more at you. Best of luck. You won't be dissapointed with any of them
Sitka* sorry
I have both.....I prefer Kuiu
B&C / P&Y Official Measurer
KUIU definitely
I have kuiu, I really like their stuff, I can't speak for Sitka but if you don't have any major hunts lined up and can wait a while, kuiu is cheaper and quality stuff. You will not be disappointed.
I also have both and prefer Kuiu. I've used them both in Alaska and BC in late September & October in some terrible weather hunting brown bear, goats, and sheep. Kuiu is the way to go IMO.

Went through the same thing last year and I went with ASAT and I have been very happy with it, I got the extreme weather and it is really warm in the late season, it replaced the wool that I used to wear, and it is alot cheaper than Kuiu or Sitka check them out.

Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant signed a bill that could lead to student-led prayer over school intercoms or at graduations or sporting events. The law becomes effective July 1.
The American Civil Liberties Union says the law is likely to prompt a lawsuit.
The law says all school districts must adopt a policy to allow a "limited public forum" at school events such as football games or morning announcements, to let students express religious beliefs. The policy must include a disclaimer that such student speech "does not reflect the endorsement, sponsorship, position or expression of the district."
Meanwhile, a nonprofit conservative group says it will provide free legal representation to Mississippi schools or districts if a new school prayer law is challenged in court.
Liberty Counsel attorney Steve Crampton told The Associated Press Friday that the group believes the law is constitutional.
Bear Atwood, legal director for American Civil Liberties Union of Mississippi, says she thinks the law "has serious constitutional issues." She says the ACLU is likely to file a lawsuit to challenge it, if proselytizing takes place in schools.

Also, these are progressive springs. A few of the coils are wrapped closer together than the rest just like on the stockers. The closer wrapped section is a bit softer which can make initial movement for small bumps easier but not bottom out on the big hits
Awesome! I'm glad you're enjoying them and it's great that the community now has another data point on weight/springs.

Sirs: For many years I dove with a "piston-style" regulator, which was great for several reasons, including the fact that it breathed the same in any position. As a result, I mounted it at an offset angle, and it worked just fine. However, I recently purchased this ScubaPro MK17 / A700 Regulator combination from Scuba.com. Love it. But I am wondering - as a "diaphram-based" regulator, can I mount the first stage with the main lobe (where the "fins" and black cap are located) in the "down" position, or does a diaphram regulator need to be mounted on the tank with the "lobe" positioned in the "up" position to obtain maximum performance. I just used this unit in Palau, and loved it. However, I did bang the back of my head against the lobe when craning my neck to see mantas playing in the water above us. I am thinking if I mount it "lobe down," I may be able to minimize this problem. Any comments from you guys out there (and thanks in advance for any feedback!) Ged Smith

OK, just want to get everyone's thoughts.... Last week, I thought Minnesota being favored was crazy... but ended up ok.... Am I wrong here in thinking that UNI should not be favorite by 7.5??
I understand that UNI is BIG and may destroy us down low, but I think McD will come out with a plan to shut down Coleman.... Hubalek returns, and our players are competing with confidence....
7.5 seems fair enough. I like playing as the underdog. I think this will be a tough game because of the emotions involved.
GMac knows the UNI team as well as his own. Hopefully, he can exploit known weaknesses.
ISU Grad 1997.
ISU Fan for Life.
Not in CO anymore but I'm not changing my name :)
We're more athletic, but they will play a cleaner game with fewer mistakes.
At best, it's a tossup for us. Probably slight advantage UNI.
I think the fact it is in a dome helps stretch the spread out. +7.5 to ISU seems right this early in the year with all that is new.
UNI plays great BB and tends to play ISU the toughest in their rival games.
While I think ISU can cover and win, I am not sure enough to put $$ on it with my bookie.
- keep.
This post is pending approval of site sponsors.
they have a lot more to play for (getting a "W" against their old coach who recruited them) and the fact its at UNI makes it that much tougher. I see UNI really pressing Taylor and forcing our other guys to come up with the points. 7.5 is fair because of that.
"To be one's self, and unafraid whether right or wrong, is more admirable than the easy cowardice of surrender to conformity." -Irving Wallace
Yep, 7.5 is fair. Lets go prove them wrong again.
--Luck of the Cyrish--
I think they key for ISU to win this game.... not just cover, is to take care of the ball. If we haev less turnovers than UNI, i think we win.
I don't mind being the underdogs all year really. Makes it sweeter when we do better than people expect us to. With higher expectations comes added pressure: see this year's FB team.
Corey or Dodie break out tonight...double-double with pts and assists. Dish the ball to Wes and Clark all night
Is the game in the Dome. I heard the ISU assistant say it's hard to play there but he might have just slipped up. Anyone know. I though it would be in there new place.
Nope, it's in the Dome. And I think the line is about right.

What about Taylor? Feed the man the rock. The only time I like to see Clark w/ the ball is on an offensive rebound and when his feet are set behind the 3 line. Please don't dribble Clark!
It is in the Dome because they want to sale more tickets. Even though there is still last I heard 6,500 tickets sold so there are still many left.

Their new place only holds 7,500 so they have to play their big games in the dome. Doesn't make sense to me. Y not just build a bigger arena?
Originally Posted by BryceC

Yeah i thought iwas in the Dome as well, but KXNO said this morning that it was in the Mcloed Center. Either way, I think UNI is a MUCH better team then Minnesota, and 7.5 seems about fair.

Irene departed on this date in 2011 and also on this date back in 2008 we were tracking another hurricane: Gustav. The storm was south of Cuba on this date, then by the 29th the hurricane intensified becoming a category two. Gustav moved through the Caymans as a category two on August 30th. The hurricane went through rapid intensification that day eventually becoming a category four. Western Cuba was hammered with winds of 150 mph and over ten inches of rain. Any wind speed over 155 mph is a category five so Gustav became a monster as August ended.
Fortunately the storm weakened after hitting Cuba and as it traversed the Gulf of Mexico. On the first of September Gustav made landfall in western Louisiana as a tropical storm. Winds were now not the problem but rather the heavy rains and storm surge. Gustav, even as a tropical storm, generated surges of twelve to thirteen feet along the Mississippi Delta. The water did climb over the some levees and floodwalls in parts of New Orleans but there was no widespread damage. Gustav did produce a lot of small tornadoes. Forty one were recorded in total with twenty one in Mississippi alone. He caused over four billion dollars in damage in the US.
On this date in 1959 Lt. Colonel William Rankin bailed out of his plane at 45,000' into a violent T-storm and lived to tell about the 45 minute journey, normally a 13 minute trip. He described it as most bizarre and painful experiences imaginable.

Installing A Hemi D.U.I Distributor - Fire That HemiWritten by on January 1, 2010 New One-Piece Distributor For Your Hemi
Properly firing your engine's ignition is a necessity for good combustion-thus power. There are many aftermarket ignition choices for the RB Wedge and Hemi that offer added voltage to the spark plugs. Some long-time readers may recall we tested Performance Distributors (PD) 440 D.U.I. (Davis Unified Ignition) ignition back in our March '04 issue (Fire That Big Block). Nevertheless, that D.U.I. distributor is still under the hood of our 67 R/T test mule. Just a reminder, the 440 D.U.I. distributor only fits under the hood of non- Shaker, Air Grabber and Ram Charger equipped Mopars with stock type valve covers.
We were jolted to hear Performance Distributors has developed a Hemi D.U.I. distributor that clears the fat Hemi valve covers. One drawback-limited applications due to hood clearance. For Performance Distributors to offer a Hemi D.U.I. they needed to lengthen it 11/2-inches more than the 440 D.U.I. causing hood clearance issues. The benefits of the fatter/wider distributor are reduced spark scatter between the terminals, which leads to a smoother running engine. Inside the distributor is the Dyna-Module that adds dwell time for longer spark duration to ignite the combustion more completely. The coil, also inside the distributor cap, is a high voltage (50,000 volts) unit. All it takes is one 12-volt wire to power the D.U.I. ignition.
For a trial fit of the Hemi D.U.I., we used our '67 Coronet R/T. The tall distributor managed to fit under the hood when we used a stock type coil/cap cover (see captions 4, 5, and 6). It's most likely the Hemi D.U.I. won't fit under the hood of a Hemi A-Body unless the motor was in a lower than stock location.
Fortunately, we were able to test the new Hemi D.U.I. using a brand-new Mopar Performance 528 Hemi crate engine at Ray Barton Racing Engines (all MP 528 Hemis are now built at Ray Barton Racing Engines). Before any MP Hemis are crated and shipped, they're dyno tested on Barton's DTS engine dyno for quality control. The 528 Hemi used for our ignition test was only the 17th Hemi crate engine that Barton's had built at that point. By the time you read this, RBRE will have built, dyno-tested, and shipped over a hundred MP 528 Hemis. Call any MP dealer to order your Hemi, not RBRE. Questions can be directed to the MP tech line: 888-528-HEMI.
The brand new 528 was run at 1,800 to 2,200 rpm for 25 minutes to properly break-in the flat tappet hydraulic cam and lifters. During that time, they monitor the oil pressure, water/oil temp, and check for any possible leaks. Afterwards, the valve settings are rechecked before any dyno pulls (usually three before crating) are made. Barton's dyno distributor is an MSD Pro Billet piece, using Moroso Blue Max ignition wires and an MSD 7AL ignition box. On its first pull the 528 made 642 hp at 6,200 rpm. By its fourth pull, power was up to 647 hp. We pulled out the MSD distributor, dropped in the D.U.I. and set the timing at the same 30 degrees full advance. The D.U.I. worked alone without the help of the big 7AL and MSD Pro Tower coil, using only one 16-volt wire to run. On its first pull the D.U.I. tied the MSD in power production and the Hemi marched on making more power as it continued breaking in. After three more pulls the 610 hp (rated) Hemi was putting out 650 hp at 6,200 rpm! The Barton's (Ray and son Dave) commented that these new Hemis need over 20 pulls before power stops climbing. Dave reinstalled the MSD ignition to demonstrate, and the Hemi backed-up the 650 hp. This only verified the MSD Pro Billet/7AL vs. the D.U.I. was a dead-heat ignition duel. It was senseless for us to make any more pulls (these crate Hemis usually get 3-4 pulls); we'll let the lucky new Hemi-owner enjoy breaking it in.
Since the 440 D.U.I. will not fit a Wedge engine with Indy heads, we felt that maybe the Hemi D.U.I. would be tall enough to fit one. Good friend Vic Palombo graciously lent us his '66 Charger with an Indy-headed RB, and our buddies at SLP welcomed the Charger for a flogging on their chassis dyno. This time the Hemi D.U.I. would be up against the MSD Pro Billet distributor with a more street-like MSD 6AL ignition box and MSD Blaster coil. For our baseline pull, the rwhp was 457 at 6,200 rpm, and the air/fuel (A/F) mixture ratio was a good-looking 12.8 at WOT (wide open throttle). Timing was at 39 degrees total-right where this Indy-headed Wedge makes its most power. We made three more pulls to confirm there was consistent power production.
At Vic's home garage, all the MSD ignition components and wiring were removed. This really cleaned up the engine compartment (see pics). We used the stock 12-volt wire that originally juiced the positive side of the coil to power the D.U.I. distributor. The original ballast resistor was bypassed. With the Hemi D.U.I. dropped in place, the stroked Wedge fired right up. We immediately noticed that it was running smoother and with better throttle response.
Now back at SLP, we made certain the timing was set at the same 39 degrees. With the Charger securely strapped down, the moment of truth came when SLP's Hank Denieki (Chief Engineer) punched the pedal down. We were very pleased to learn we picked up 5 rwhp. With the A/F at the same 12.8 we didn't need to reach into our boxes of Holley tuning supplies. Again, we made three more pulls to check consistency.
As an added bonus to our testing of the Hemi D.U.I., we wanted to see if Performance Distributors' Mini VIP (18-volt step-up regulator) would step up the power. The Mini VIP was plugged into the D.U.I. and another spin of the roller showed us 5 more horsepower to the wheels. That's enough of a power increase to be worth a tenth at the track. The additional spark output changed the combustion burn to a lean and mean 13.0 A/F. This was on an exceptionally warm and humid December day (72 degrees, 77 percent humidity). If it was cool and dry we would have richened it up for a few more hp but we left well enough alone.
Testing ignitions and seeing and hearing the new Street Hemi make 650 hp was amazing, considering we did no special tuning (using only an 830 Holley HP with 30 degrees timing, and unported heads and intake) on the mild-mill. Most enthusiasts with a Hemi or Indy-headed Wedge will see more power using the Hemi D.U.I.-if it will fit under the hood!

Hood clearance for the Hemi D.U.I. was checked using our '67 Coronet, equipped with an RB Wedge. The hood closed, but as you can see, the pink play-dough shows how the top edge of the coil cover was up against the hood. On our '67, the hood bracing didn't come close to the distributor. We tried the Hemi DUI using a friend's 440-powered '64 Fury, and we couldn't close the hood. The hood bracing was in the way.The coil cover on the left will become standard issue for the Hemi D.U.I. to aid in needed hood clearance. The cover on the right is featured on all the other D.U.I. distributors. The new cover will add nearly an inch of needed hood clearance for the tall distributor.We checked hood clearance with the stock-type H.E.I. coil/cap cover and gained the needed clearance (see the pink play dough). The Hemi D.U.I. may have fit under the hood of our 67 R/T, but don't expect it to fit under any Shaker, Air Grabber, or Ramcharger equipped hoods.The MP finned aluminum valve cover sits roughly a 1/2-inch higher on the raised port Indy head. In this situation the Hemi D.U.I. clears the MP valve cover by an 1/8-inch. Note: the 440 D.U.I. will not fit a RB engine with Indy heads. This was why we trial fitted the Hemi D.U.I. on this Indy headed RB motor.Back on SLP's dyno the D.U.I. put out five more rwhp than the team of MSD ignition components. We did reuse the MSD Super Conductor plug wires for a fair comparison. After testing we changed to Performance Distributor's Livewires plug wires. The Livewires are a high-quality spiral core wire with a heat resistant sleeve for protection from exhaust heat.On this '66 Charger we can see the Hemi DUI sticking through the hole of the Hemi hood scoop in the fiberglass AAR hood. The '66-'67 Charger and Coronet use the same hood. In our case, it fit under the hood of our Coronet but not the Charger. Remember, the Hemi DUI will only fit under a limited number of Mopar hoods.Previous testing has shown the Mini VIP helps the ignition produce a stronger spark for better combustion-that means more power. We mounted the Mini VIP (18-volt step-up regulator) right where the ballast resistor once resided. We plugged in the Mini VIP, which changed the 13.5 volts that went to the D.U.I. into 18-volts. In return the D.U.I's increased voltage to the plugs gave us a gain of five hp to the tires. The added firepower changed the A/F from 12.8 to a lean and mean 13.0. On a cooler day (it was 72-degrees, 77-percent humidity) we would have re-jetted the carb to a richer fuel mixture for a few more hp. Realizing over 10-more rwhp from the Performance Distributor products, we felt that was quite an accomplishment with less clutter under the hood.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WUSA/WVIR) -- Charlottesville Police say a man tried to pull a 19-year-old University of Virginia student into his vehicle on Thursday night. The suspected attacker is now in police custody.
Twenty-six-year-old Matthew Rene Beaulieu is charged with abduction with the intent to defile, a class 2 felony, after the incident in the 2200 block of Stadium Road. Police say that a 19-year-old female UVA student was walking there shortly after midnight when she spotted a vehicle following her. The vehicle stopped and the driver got out. He ran toward the student and grabbed her. He then tried to pull her into his vehicle, say police.
Police say the young woman fought with him and he finally gave up and fled in his vehicle. She then called 911 and described the attacker and his car.
A police officer stopped a car fitting the description on Interstate 64 at Exit 120 and Beulieu was arrested and charged.
Beaulieu is being held without bond in the Charlottesville/Albemarle Regional Complex.
Police say that the young woman only suffered minor scrapes and bruises. She credited training from the Sexual Assault Resource Agency (SARA) through her sorority house on how to react in the case of an attempted sexual assault for being able to escape Thursday's incident.

"People always said that medication nonadherence was a $100 billion weight on our healthcare system," explains Elizabeth Oyekan, area pharmacy director for the Kaiser South Bay Medical Center. "But as of five years ago, that number literally tripled, and in the literature you'll see that it is anywhere from $177 billion to about $300 billion."
The problem is so deep that all stakeholders in the healthcare industry are struggling to figure out what to do. Pharma companies are hindered, because patients feel their adherence programs are too promotional; physicians complain that they don't have enough time to meet with patients, let alone sign them up for compliance programs; and payers are frustrated because patients that start and stop medications are likely to cost more in the long run, especially if their non-compliance puts them in the emergency room.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- We expect to get a ruling this week on one of the biggest Supreme Court cases in years.
Is it constitutional for Uncle Sam to require you to buy health insurance or face a penalty?
President Obama's health care law hangs in the balance. The high court could decide to strike down the entire law, rule that certain parts of the law are unconstitutional, or uphold the law.
The Supreme Court is expected to issue its last opinions on Thursday, then it will begin its summer recess. The Supreme Court will resume public meetings the first Monday in October.
9News Now's Delia Goncalves has more about the upcoming ruling in the video above.

Fire Destroys Barn
(Le Mars) -- Fire fighters from Le Mars, Merrill, and Hinton were on the scene over the noon hour of a barn fire located about 4 miles south of Le Mars on 220th Street and near County Road K-49. The alarm was sounded at about 11:20 a.m. Upon arrival, heavy black smoke was seen coming from the structure, and within minutes the barn was totally engulfed in flames. The barn is a total loss, along with hay bales that was inside the structure, the building was also housing some construction insulation. A few chickens were lost inside the barn at the time of the fire. Strong northwest winds helped fan the flames, making it that much more difficult for fire officials to extinguish the fire. Le Mars Fire Chief, Dave Schipper says he had concerns about the other out buildings, as well as a newly constructed house that sits within close proximity and was downwind of the barn fire.
Listen to
The Le Mars Fire Chief says he was worried when fire crews first arrived on the scene.
Listen to
Schipper says the cause of the fire was a burn pile that was ignited early Monday morning.
