Putting karma points in the food bank
If 26-year-old Nick Biase could have a time-traveling visit with his childhood self, he would tell the kid to eat more apples. He would suggest that young Nick stop cleaning his siblings' plates in addition to his own and insist that he never, ever start smoking.
And that boyhood dream of joining the Marines and helping people? As grown-up Nick would be happy to report, that one turned out to be a keeper.
"I've just always wanted to to go out there and serve people. I did it in the military, and I wanted to keep doing it," said Biase, a volunteer with Feeding America San Diego. "When I sit here and reflect, it's amazing how everything fell into place."
By "here," the SDSU student means the Sorrento Valley offices of Feeding America San Diego, the local arm of the country's largest domestic hunger-relief organization. As a nutrition advocate, Biase creates healthy recipes using the donated foods that go out to needy clients. He also does cooking demonstrations at food-distribution events and leads workshops for the food bank's community partners and pantries.
And by "amazing," he means the series of circumstances that turned a former pasta junkie into a nutrition fiend, and the chance opportunity that brought a man who loved food to the food bank that really needed him.
"We are good about bringing food in, but we don't know a lot about nutrition. Nick has been able to keep nutrition at the forefront for us," said Jennifer Gilmore, Feeding America San Diego's executive director. "At his cooking demos, he'll get quite a group around him, and he enjoys it. He's young, he's approachable and he makes it fun."
In 2010, Biase was a student at MiraCosta College with a five-year stint in the Marines under his belt and a revelation about to land in his lap. While in the military, Biase took part in humanitarian missions in the storm-torn Solomon Islands and the Philippines. The guy from New Haven, Conn. had never seen conditions like the ones he found there, and he and never met people who needed so much and were happy with so little.
"When I saw what the other humanitarian organizations were doing there, I could really see myself helping people. When you see that side of the world, it really makes you appreciate what you have. Also, it makes you start thinking, 'What can I do?'"
While he was helping get food and aid to the poor and displaced, Biase also realized he had to do a better job of helping himself. As the product of a big Italian-American family, Biase loved his pasta and his eggplant Parmesan. But when his beloved grandfather died unexpectedly in 2007, Biase vowed to get healthy. He stopped smoking, purged his diet of unhealthy fats and bad carbs and amped up his exercise.
And when he fulfilled his military service and started at Mira Costa, Biase discovered that he had been preparing himself for a totally unexpected future.
"In my Health 101 class, I found out what a dietitian was, and it was exactly what I wanted to do with my life," Biase said, still sounding jazzed. "I didn't even know that was a real job. From then on, it was my path. I love food so much, I could talk about it all day. It just flows."
In 2012, his new path took him to San Diego State and its Foods and Nutrition program. At a classmates' suggestion, he signed up for a temporary volunteer gig helping Feeding America San Diego conduct food surveys in neighborhoods throughout the county. That is where he found his purpose.

I created a zimlet a few months ago and had to create a work around because of time constraints. I'm going to try to correct this workaround. My workaround is posted at Zimbra to PHP - ZimbraWiki
I want to extract the raw email, exactly like when you right click on an email and choose Show Original. I want this to be stuffed into a variable that I can _Post to another web site.
My work around was to extract it using REST (on Zimbra) and Curl (on external application). The only problem with this is passwords! My users cannot accept that when they change their password for Zimbra that they must change it in dotProject or erpAE.com.
I thought it would be easy to REST within my zimlet, extract the email and post it when the form is submitted. This has not proven easy to do. I think it's because I don't have a solid grasp on http requests in the Zimbra framework. If anyone has code, or can explain the code to pull this off, I would be very grateful, even willing to pay for the information. I've tried looking at several pieces of the zimbra source code and I'm getting close, but not there yet. I know its something simple that I'm missing.

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Lance Lynn struck out eight over seven stellar innings of one-hit ball to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 5-0 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday in the third installment of a four-game set at Citizens Bank Park.
Lynn (3-0) walked just three to earn his third win in four starts, while Trevor Rosenthal and Mitchell Boggs each spun an inning in relief to secure the shutout for the Cards, who have taken two of three from the Phillies.
Allen Craig clubbed a two-run single as part of a four-run third, with Yadier Molina and David Freese each adding an RBI base hit to the rally. Carlos Beltran belted his third home run in as many days in the fifth to account for the final margin.
Michael Young extended his hitting streak to 11 games, but the Phillies managed just three hits as a team. Cliff Lee (2-1) was tagged for all five runs on seven hits and three walks over five frames for Philadelphia, which has dropped five of its last six.

Dear All,This feels as thought he starter motor has - for some reason - engaged.I can select neutral and roll the bike, but when I try the electric starter it does nothing as though the bike is in gear as well.
Unfortunately we cant get only the bearing, we get the whole set and yes it will fit any UCE engine. When the sprag gets damaged then there is high probability that the facing of the sprag housing gets damged as well hence we need to change the whole unit.
I am still waiting to see the new one, my local RE dealer hasn't got the new one in yet.

New to the forum just wanted to get some opinions for archery hunts. X3a and X5a.Not looking for secret spots just your thoughts on these areas if you've hunted them or know of someones past experiences.Anything is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
New to the forum just wanted to get some opinions for archery hunts. X3a and X5a.Not looking for secret spots just your thoughts on these areas if you've hunted them or know of someones past experiences.Anything is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
there is better hunting in the hills to your west.
The X zone hunts are premium zones. Harder to draw a tag but good for the public land hunter typically. I don't have much feedback on X3a or X5a other than seeing the harvest stats. Welcome to the forum JGuenth.
JNDEER thanks for the reply just kind of wanted to try something new you know what I mean. Get on some spot and stalk bow hunts.
Kevin appreciate the reply. Yeah, I have some points burning in my pocket, may hold out for the late season Covelo A30 archery hunt but just weighing my options you know. Thanks for the welcoming.
Good thread starting here. I've also been weighing my options on what to do with my CA deer points. An archery muley hunt would be cool, and it doesn't take that many points. But, for not that much more money and fewer points there are WAY better out of state archery muley hunts to be had. Holding out another year or two for the Covelo tag is another option, but on the other hand I've got a bunch of nice blacktails already and that hunt seems to be really hit and miss these days. I know it was awful last season. A24, the late season Monterey County hunt in my home area is a good one for the private properties I hunt down there... but time will be limited as I am in Sonoma County attending the University and I can't do as much trail camming and scouting to find the biggest bucks.
Looking forward to seeing more responses to your post JGuenth. And welcome to the Forum!
Todd H
Ya the covelo tag is definitely a good option if u can hold out how many points do you have? But like BSA said there's is also good options in other states And the x zones are good options but pretty coveted tags But with anything just gotta put in the time and effort
Here's my two cents. I was raised in northern Ca. during the mule deer haydays, hunted the X zones before they were X zones and saw a LOT of deer. IMO, the high profile units such as X-5B and X-5A are living on there reputation of years ago. The hunter success rates clearly prove this out. If your setting on a pile of points there are better options.
Hey guys thanks for all the responses they are great, I appreciate it. My 3PP should get me a decent Xzone archery tag. Covelo would be cool but like others say it so hit and miss. The thing I like about the Xzone archery tags is they are very limited compared to what I deal with archery hunting the Bzones. I can't wait to hopefully pull the string on a nice muley.
Ya that should give you good odds for a archery X zone the ones you are talking bout I think the minimum of points to get drawn are 3 or 2 would have to look at the regs and have check it out good luck I'm sure everyone is counting the days for draw results and seasons to start I know I am

We are so screwed.
Same thing will happen as the lion problem in California. Highest cat population in the west and we can't hunt them so they are destroying our deer herd, the sheep and the cattle ranchers are suffering losses, and people are loosing their pets. Can't wait for the wolves to get here. Same stupid people that caused the cat problem will create a huge problem with the wolves.
So frustrating.
When OR7 arrived we were paying for government protection for a wolf. At least three people every day were watching to make sure nobody hurt him. Probably cost us a couple grand a day to protect him.

Trucking news: ACT notes Class 8 vehicle production and orders are on the upswing
June 14, 2010
Citing a strengthening North American economy and improving supply/demand balance of freight hauling truck capacity, ACT Research recently said that a continuing rebound of orders and production of commercial vehicles is underway.
The provider of data and analysis for trucks and other commercial vehicles said in its ACT North American Commercial Vehicle Outlook that its 2010 forecast for Class 8 vehicle production was increased by 4,500 units. This brings to total projection to 146,000 units, according to ACT Partner and Senior Analyst Kenny Vieth. Despite the increase, Vieth told LM that a typical unit replacement figure is about 200,000.
"The good news is the forecast is going up and also that even though the forecast is going up it is still well below replacement levels for equipment so capacity continues to bleed out of the market, with incremental improvement in demand," said Vieth.
Even though demand is improving, the current situation is still not a case of carriers asking for "as many trucks as you can build me right now," Vieth explained. But he did say this may be coming in the next four-to-six months.
What's more, Vieth said there have been modest upside surprises on orders in the last three months, which has been encouraging from an equipment perspective.
"What has been nice from an equipment perspective is the strength of demand has hit in all north American markets—in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico and up across equipment types so we have seen orders for tractors with and without sleepers going up," said Vieth. "We have seen an increase in day cab trucks, and it is kind of everything being just a little bit better than it was."
While production levels for Class 8 trucks are below replacement levels, Vieth said there continues to be an upward trend in used truck pricing. And over the past six months, he said ACT has seen a $5,000 increase in the six-month run rate it tracks over the past six months. ACT expects an increase of another $5,000 over the next three-to-five months.
"With the improvement in the economy, coupled with the falloff in used truck pricing, it creates a very good dynamic for used truck pricing from a used truck supply perspective," said Vieth. "And we still have relatively low sales so there are not a lot of trade-ins coming into the market. The big carriers have spent the last three years taking capacity out of fleets, so even thought they have been buying new trucks they have been creating used trucks. I think the big carriers are no longer shedding capacity so that avenue of supply is going away. And we are still seeing reasonably decent exports of used trucks coming out of the U.S., because used truck prices are still low."

Yeti Cycles SB-66 Mountain Bike Frame - 2013 $0.00
The alloy SB-66 marked a change in direction for the boys in Golden, CO, as it was the first platform to receive Yeti's innovative approach to suspension design -- Switch Technology. Developed to both climb and descend aggressive backcountry trails, the 152mm travel SB-66 Mountain Bike Frame represents the current direction of progressive mountain biking.
Key to the SB-66's multifaceted ability is its distinctive Switch Technology, rear suspension design. Technically, it's a mini dual-link system. And while there're a number of iterations currently on the market, Yeti's application offers something a bit different. Switch Technology refers to the rotational movement of an eccentric housed in the lower pivot.
Essentially it's a pivot within a pivot, with 12mm separating the centers. As the rear suspension compresses into its travel, the eccentric (and the pivot) rotate counter-clockwise as viewed from the drive-side of the bike. It moves this way through the first 100mm or so of travel to provide an anti-squat, neutral characteristic to the suspension.
When riding, it feels as if the SB-66 has a built-in pedaling platform, and since it's a result of the eccentric, it doesn't rely on heavy compression damping. This gives the SB excellent traction and control on choppy trails. At the same time, the SB-66 is ready for larger hits. Once the mid-stroke is exceeded, Switch Technology changes direction and rotates clockwise. This keeps chainstay growth at a minimum for a reduced pedal kickback and lively handling on tight and twisty trails. It also ramps up the leverage ratio. For the most part, Switch Technology produces a flat curve, but once the rear suspension is pushed towards the limit, it firms up to provide a bottomless feel.
There's another benefit as well. Since the bottom bracket, eccentric, and lower pivot for the swing link are all machined into a single, forged aluminum structure, they're in perfect alignment on every bike. This translates into a rear swingarm that moves freely throughout its travel range, and to a longer life for the Enduro Max sealed cartridge pivot bearings.
Each of the SB-66's 6061-T6 frame tubes are shaped for a purpose. Take the seatstays for example -- they flare in the vertical plane towards the dropouts. On the left side, this helps distribute loads from the post mount. Otherwise, the larger cross-section handles compression loads without flexing. The down tube is ovalized at the bottom bracket to enhance stiffness, and it bears flattened sides to channel and distribute stress from the shock mount.
Attached to that shock mount is a FOX FLOAT CTD shock with the Kashima coating. Since Yeti partners with FOX for its World Cup team, it's no surprise that they spec the latest from FOX. The Kashima Coat creates a slicker, more durable finish on the shock shaft, allowing the suspension to respond to bump input with greater sensitivity. The dampening system has been revised with a simplified user experience as the main objective. CTD offers three pre-tuned compression dampening options for Climbing, Trail, and Descending.
The Yeti SB-66 has a 73mm bottom bracket with splines that accept removable ISCG 03/05 chainguide mounts. The tapered head tube (44mm ID top and 56mm ID bottom) takes a zero-stack tapered headset. Out back, it comes equipped with chip-style dropouts that accept a standard quick-release. If you're interested in added swingarm stiffness, a 12x142mm chip kit is also available. The post-style caliper mount allows a direct fit for a 160mm rotor. It takes a direct mount top-pull front derailleur, and the top tube bears cable guides for a dropper seatpost.
The Yeti SB-66 Mountain Bike Frame is available in four sizes from Small to X-Large and in the colors Black, Lime, Turquoise, White, and Yellow.

Let me know the frame box size please.
Can you?
Would it be possible to organise shipping of this frame to a bike shop in Ketchikan Alaska, so that I could collect the bike on my way through there via a cruise ship stop-off on 11th June 2015?
Did you raise the price of this frame? I thought it was $999 or $949 a month or two ago and was just about ready to order now.
Check out their sister site Steepandcheap. $899 if they have your size.
some kind of monster... =D
Is the warranty still good for 2 years on this frame?
Yes, the 2 year warranty on the SB-66 frame is from the date of original purchase.
Is this frame compatible w/26" wheels?
Yes the SB-66 uses 26'' wheels exclusively.
can i use this adapter on this frame?
Yes, that is made to be used with this frame.
Can you get this frame in size small?
Sorry, these are a close out and we cannot get more.
Hello I am from Germany. Is it possible to ship to there?
Best regards
We can ship some brands to Germany, but Yeti requires a US address for shipping. Do you have friends or family here we could ship to?
Hi, I am in China , may you ship the frame to China ? I want a 2013 Sb66
We can often ship to China, but this brand doesn't allow us to do so. Do you have friends or family here we could ship to/
Hi is this the right top cup for this frame? Cane Creek 40 1 1/8" ZS Upper Headset 40 ZS Tall Top 1 1/8 Threadless. Or should I get the short one 8mm not the tall one since its 15mm insert. Thanks!
Either one will work. Just depends on how low you want to position the stem. You just need to makes sure its a ZS 1 1/8th and it will work.
Great all mountain bike!!!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought this bike on sale in early October after my Felt Virtue frame cracked (After 2 months, still waiting to hear back from Felt on the frame warranty by the way). I am now a proud member of the Yeti tribe. While 2 pounds heavier than my previous bike after similar build, it is hard to notice the extra weight going up and putting the rear shock on "Climb" makes a big difference. I built mine up with a Fox Float 150 mm CTD fork. This bike is super fast going down and very forgiving... No need to worry about picking your line, this bike will let you make your own line. It took a while to get used to the geometry and rake angle, and feels large and the frame is a little bulky, but hell, it is so fast and so much fun going down. In my case, with my build it came out to 29lbs, so not bad for a 6-inch travel bike. Shipping from Backcountry was outstanding, with the order being placed on a Wednesday and having the frame waiting for me when I got home from work on Friday. The only dislike is the location for the bottle cage is useless and the routing of the rear brake line requires disassembling of the rear linkage...
What Chris king/Cane Creek Headset will fit with this frame?
The Sb66 uses a Zero Stack headset (44/56mm) also called a Inset 2 in Chris King. Give me a shout if I can help your with and order and make sure you have all the right parts needed.
a little flaw
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I got this frame two weeks ago and started building on it. When I finished almost everything and started routing cables, I found that the first cable anchor on the downtube was accidentally sealed during the welding, hence it's not usable. It would be too much hustle to disassemble all the parts I put on it (especially the headset) and return this frame, so I decided to live with this imperfection. Other than that, the frame is pretty good.
I highly recommend that everyone upon receiving of the frame check all the cable anchors.
My frame has a similar issue, not sure if it is the same anchor. The first one at the end of the down tube closest to the Bottom Bracket. Mine was not totally closed though, just smaller, I was able to use a smaller tie wrap...It could also be drilled through with a small bit...
hi! do you ship this frame to singapore? thanks!
Unfortunately, we cannot ship Yeti products outside of North America.
Here's a link to our international shipping policy and brand restrictions:
Will this bike ship with rear shock? If so can you please proved link to rear shock specs?
Does the sb66 ship with chainguide tabs?
It does not. You'll have to pick up one of these as well if you want to run a guide. Item - YTI0130
I just bought a SB66 aluminium version and my question is if I can install a RD XTR M986 or I can only use the previous model (M985)because of the hanger....
I'm trying to buy something now and I do not want to screw things up :)
PS: I bought a Shimano chip kit as well for 12x142mm, I do not know it that matters or not here....
Many thanks
HI Walter,
The new Shimano Direct-mount derailleurs like the RD-M986 should include a link that makes them backwards-compatible with traditional-mount frames like the SB-66.
what are the shipping dimensions and weight of this frame?
This frame ships in a box measuring 42x8x23 inches. A medium frame in the box weighs about 17 pounds.
Give us a call or chat if you have other questions about the SB-66, or to place an order!

Item # ERG0028
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Grips in stock than that.View Similar Products
Ergon GS1 Grip - Leichtbau $0.00
Ergon designed their GS1 grip shape as a perfect medium between their archetypical GP1 grip (the base shape for all GP, GC, and GR series grips) and the race-inspired GX1 grip shape. With the earlier designs on either end of Ergon's size and shape spectrum, the GS1 Leichtbau Grip falls right in-between, offering a shape that works to reduce pressure on your Ulnar nerves and to ease wrist strain while retaining the light weight characteristic of the GX1.
We feel like this happy medium will quickly become a favorite for anyone looking to increase their hand comfort on their mountain bike. The wing shaped support is exactly where many glove makers are stitching on extra padding these days, and it provides more support for your hand. You'll perceive less pressure on your palm because of the increased surface area, and the soft kraton rubber gives just enough and allows supreme grip, even with sweat soaked gloves. You'll see a textured rubber insert on the top of the grips. Ergon uses a softer rubber compound here to help dissipate vibration and jolts on the trail.
The angle of the grip is important and worth the time to find the position that works best for you. The alloy clamp at the end of the grip should be tightened to a maximum of 5 Nm in order to avoid handlebar damage once you find the right angle. Ergon has found that most people, except those who have huge mitts, go with the small size. The smaller diameter is lighter, a bit stiffer, and easy to grab. Those with big hands and those who spend long, long days in the saddle might want to lean towards large.
The Ergon GS1 Leichtbau Grip is available in White and Black and comes in two sizes -- Small and Large. The GS1 is 132mm wide, including the clamp assembly; and it's 54mm front to back at the wing. The set comes with bar plugs and installation instructions.

Look great, work great
I don't wear gloves while riding, take too much time in transition:) I was looking for a grip to save my grip. These work great.
THE grips
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This ones looks awesome on my 29er. This ones makes the ride even better!
must have!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
these grips make it so you can ride longer and feel better on you hands, they are a must have when you go up into the mountains, you will be able to ride longer and feel so much better when you get done with your ride!
Really great
I tried the large GP1 grips starting out. They were ok on long flat rides, but when I actually have to steer the bike, they were just too big. I have the small size in these- I wear size XXL gloves, to give you an idea. The small size give a much better grip on the bars, even having big hands. They still give substantial relief from hand numbness over a round grip. The large grips didn't provide any more relief for being larger as the size difference is mostly in the round part, as someone else said.
No more numb hands
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought these because my pinky and ring finger were going numb during longer rides. They worked for that and are just all around comfortable. It takes a bit to dial in the correct angle, but once you get it, its great.
XC heaven
These are perfect for XC, not as light as some silicone/foam style grips but exponentially more comfortable. The one down side is I can only wrap my thumb and pointer finger all the way around the grip (the wing blocks my other fingers) so for that reason i wouldnt put these on a bike designed to tackle nasty downhillish stuff. But for the xc rides nothing beats it.
i have the large grips as i like the thicker grip. (note the size isnt width or how big the wing is, its the diameter of the grip)
Super comfortable
I love these grips. They're super comfortable and given a bit of relief on long climbs. I find I can rest my palms and rest my grip.
I've also used the Ergon GP1s and found the lighter GS1 to actually be more comfortable for me.
Gotta Get Some!
The ergo design of these will change your ride for ever! Riding with simple round grips are not near as comfortable once you make the switch. When you think about it, we are making three points of contact with the bike (Seat/pedals/grips), yet the advancement in grip design has been very slow in coming.
I use the small size and I am 5'7". I had a pair of the large at one time, but found them a little to big for my grip, which meant sore hands, so choose the size wisely! I've had the Ergon GA1's as well and seem to like these a bit better.
That looks like the Ergon GP1 grip.

The Accidental Point of David Frum
David Frum has descended further into deluded, smug surrealism. That occurs in anyone who thinks like Leftist, acts like a Leftist, feels like a Leftist but insists athwart reason and logic that she or he is quite the Conservative. Such is the case with Mr. Frum's attempt to "Conservatively" agree with US Attorney General Eric Holder that America truly is a nation of cowards.

How generally satisfied are people using the Outlook connector? After it is running, is it stable or is it painful to maintain? I'm looking for a good solution to allow Outlook to talk to a Exchange-like server, but don't want to create a lot of headaches for myself. I've been using the Open Source version of Zimbra V6 for a long time in a web / IMAP / POP environment for a long time, but now I need a server that will support Outlook.
I'm trying out the current version of the Network Edition, and am having two common problems I see in the forum with Outlook 2010. First is the "Can't authenticate to server" error and the second is the corrupt mapi32.dll problem. I have imported the digital cert into the Windows machine and have told the connector it can use invalid certificates with the suggested registry change, but to no avail.
Is the best thing to just buy a commercial digital certificate and forget the problems with self-signed certificates?

The Antidepressant Survival Program-How to Beat the Side Effects and Enhance the Benefits of Your Medication
Robert J. Hedaya, M.D., with Deborah KotzReview by William Zaccagnino, David Seaman, and James Secor, Ph.D., NAMI Literature Committee
The Antidepressant Survival Program-How to Beat the Side Effects and Enhance the Benefits of Your Medication
Dr. Robert J. Hedaya's book The Antidepressant Survival Program-How to Beat the Side Effects and Enhance the Benefits of Your Medication, offers a possible solution for antidepressant side effects. Becausee, for some consumers, side effects are so severe or bothersome that they stop taking their medicine, the successful use of this program could be the difference between chronic illness and recovery.
Hedaya notes that antidepressants are not a perfect problem-solver because of their side effects, such as fatigue and weight gain. "I'm not depressed anymore, but when do I get a life?" was how one of his patients put it. He tries to help people taking antidepressants reclaim their whole lives.
Hedaya's program consists of a nutrition plan (the largest part of the program), an exercise program, and spiritual renewal. He advocates balance and limits in one's diet and offers specific guidelines. His exercise program improves circulation and aerobic fitness, strength, and flexibility. He approaches spiritual renewal various ways, such as through relaxation exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, meditation, and yoga with the objectives of relieving stress, increasing pleasure, and just plain having fun.
Although this program is a lifestyle change for most people, Hedaya insists on his patients' commitment, not just that they "will try." In turn, he promises fewer side effects, better antidepressant effect (perhaps leading to lower doses), and more energy. He describes ample rewards for following his program and believes-based on what he has seen in his patients-that the result is a profound difference, or "getting a life back."
Hedaya equally stresses adequate medical support to both ensure proper care during this change and to make the effort easier. And having personal support can prevent falling back into old eating and activity habits. Better yet, he believes, is having a co-participant for mutual moral support. Since the program would be healthful whether one is taking antidepressants or not, families might join consumers to strengthen commitment.
Hedaya describes success with over 300 of his patients. It may be a fairly small sample for science, but he is convincing about this improved-lifestyle program and its reported success for those who take antidepressants…and others.

Whoopi Goldberg Becomes Lone Host On 'The View' After ABC's Surprise Firings
It looks like ABC is doing some housecleaning, because Whoopie Goldberg is now the only host left after the network fired the rest of her co-hosts Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy.
And it looks like the morning TV program is also taking a new direction entirely.
According to Daily News, a spokeswoman for the show, Lauri Hogan, says in a statement, "'The View' will be moving in an exciting new direction next season and ABC has made decisions to evolve the show creatively."
Sherri Shepherd tweeted on the hosting change-up:

Life should be lived. Run towards the things that scare you. Choose joy and trust God - everything else will work out as it should— Sherri Shepherd (@SherriEShepherd) June 27, 2014
Then she sent out this cryptic Tweet/Instagram:

Meanwhile, Jenny McCarthy shared:

Bike Wear's ALP-X 2.0 GT AS Pants are made from Gore's patented
Gore-Tex Active fabric. This material adheres to Gore's rigorous
standards of lightweight, windproof, and waterproof construction. The

Not only are the pants designed to compete with the weather, but provide
a precise, anatomic fit as well. The fit is supported by pre-shaped
knees, an adjustable waistband, and a high-cut back with a zippered stow
pocket. For protection from long-term saddle friction and chainrings,
the pants also feature a wear-resistant seat reinforcement and Velcro
leg-fasteners. And although the ALP-X 2.0s are made for the mountains,
you're going to have to ride home at some point. That's why Gore's

and reflective print on the hem.

A "Must Have" for these pants
Keep the baggy bottoms of these pants out of the chain with this really great leg band by Dueter...best I've found yet!
Made my Rainy Rides in Ireland Great!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs small
These pants delivered ! All the things I hated about wearing rain pants ( hot, noisy, ill fitting, and constraining) are now just a distant memory. These pants kept me dry and comfortable on very wet rides through western Ireland. And they breath so well and are so easy to ride in, that I was very happy to wear them on windy, misty rides, too. They are articulated so there is no annoying pulling at the knees while pedaling. They make a little bit noise while pedaling but not bad. And as far as rain pants go, they are surprisingly flattering : no bagging around the butt or waist. A small design improvement would be for the ankle Velcro closing to allow for a snugger closing and assure chain clearance. I usually wear a women's size 6-8 or Medium and the Women's Large fit well.
Great pants after all...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Found out about pants' leg bands; in particular, a product by Deuter that is a bit wider than most other straps I've seen, so it holds the pant leg more securely. It also has a 3-M Scotch Lite reflective strip and secure velcro closure.
Gore seems to run on the small side (aside from the REALLY baggy legs of these), recommend order one size up & get the Deuter leg band (the one I got retails at $11.00, look for that one); your local bike shop will probably have to special order it from their catalog, as did my favorite shop; or go directly to the Deuter web-site...be safe...good-to-go!
Thank you for the suggestion. DO you know what is funny about these pants ? that I got caugnt in my bycicle chain one day when I was riding in my Gore pants...(after six months of using them) I called Gore and they gave me one website where they repair Gore products. They sent me to Amazon to buy the repair kit, is available as ( McNett Gore-Tex Fabric Repair Kit ). I have not done the repair yet but I will sure let you know if this works or not. It has good reviews at least. Hope you don't get caught with your leg band that you are recommending. I will try to get one for sure.
Still like the concept of these weather...
Still like the concept of these weather resistant pants...does anyone have any actual experience riding with these...how do you manage the extra material at the lower leg and not getting it caught-up in the bike? Or, is there another brand that would also fit the bill ( I don't know who does weather protection better besides Gore), but fit better? I mountain/trail ride mostly. Thanks for any helpful tips!
I actually think that Gore bike pants are really good. I have been riding in these since November 2012 in New York City and I've been always dry, and although they do not have a inner layer for cold I use them on top of my tights. They are like a windbreaker... they are long enough to cover the boots if it rains and to allow you comfortably to ride. Sometimes the material on the lower leg rubs my chain but I haven't been caught yet. It doesn't happen to me frequently. I am 5' 6 " and 152 lb. I chose the size XL. For me I do not care if I look baggy, I went for the extra-protection. There are two Velcro attachments and I use the vertical one.
Thanks, cla...that's the reason I wanted these, too (extra protection). I'm the same basic build and the large was too close for going over the tights comfortably. Maybe I'll give them another try...still concerned about entanglement in the chain...but you've had no real problem...maybe someone else has a "trick" for keeping the bottom leg out of trouble...Thanks again!
For Cycling...Really???
In theory, these would be great...everything in the reveiw was just what I was looking for, even a looser fit (thought they may also be worn OVER another pair of pants for extra warmth & protection); but from the knee down they were just way too baggy! I think these should stay on the "mountian". The velcro didn't stick together like it should, and even so, they were still too baggy, and could easily get caught up in the chain,etc. So dissapointed, had to send back. Might be good for hiking, unless you want to bungy or tape the pants around your calves/ankles! No insulation, just basically a shell...which still would have been o.k. if they would have designed them more "cycle" friendly.

Shades Of The Past—Today!Written by Brian Brennan on February 1, 2012 Dollywood's Splash Country Water Adventure Park is home for the Hot Rod Roundup No. 29 … and many more to come
A lot went on at this year's Shades of the Past Street Rod Association's Hot Rod Roundup No. 29 in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, now held at Dollywood's Splash Country Water Adventure Park. But, before we get into this year's goings-on how about a little background on why this event is rapidly becoming one of the country's premier rodding events?
In every club there's always the "go-to" guy and in Shades that would be Dan Draper, the club's treasurer and rod run chairman. Draper tells us today's Shades came about as a result of trying to resurrect the old Gatlinburg event back in 1982. The event had run its course with the city and it was no longer welcome. (I remember one time Norm Grabowski and I entering a rollaway bed in a race down a steep side street and ended up in a stream—well, you now know why we aren't there anymore!)
A home was found at the Grand Hotel in Pigeon Forge after the club promised to cover 250 rooms—gutsy move for a bunch of good ol' denim-wearing southern hot rodders who had drawn a humble 80 cars the last time around. There's an old expression about risk versus reward: the size of the reward is in direct proportion to the size of the risk. In typical car guy fashion, the Shades Car Club figured that sounded doable and the Grand Run was born at the Grand Hotel.
The club also began its tradition of giving back to the rodders who supported them. At the first Grand Run in 1983, they gave away $1,000 to a lucky participant whose entry number was 1,000. The event was a success but trouble was a brewin'. By 1986, the Grand Hotel sent them packing. Up came the stakes and the show moved five blocks west to the Water Circus, which had plenty of parking, and the new event was off and running.
It was at the Water Circus in 1987 (Shades No. 5) that the date was moved to the Friday and Saturday after Labor Day. Yet the Shades club had to overcome another chuck of adversity. Water Circus was sold and a Quality Inn was built in the parking lot that was to be the home of Shades 1987.
Apparently southern rodders don't like moving far; again with bags in hand they moved several blocks down the parkway to Porpoise Island. The next year it was back to the Quality Inn as its construction was now complete. With all of the adversity the event continued to grow and proved successful.
Having outgrown the Quality Inn site, the club leased a nearby 52-acre pasture in 1993 and the Shades of the Past Hot Rod Roundup had a home for the next 17 years. Of course, pastureland isn't without its own set of unique circumstances, such as muddy under footings and dusty grounds, but by 2007 the event grew to 3,291 entrants. It was in 2002 that the event welcomed cars up to 1964 and then in 2006 opened the event to pre-'73 hot rods, as the dynamics that make up our hobby (and economy) began to have an impact on the number of entrants.
It was in 2010 that Shades was moved to Dollywood Splash Country (DSC). The available space was smaller but it was paved and eliminated the muddy and dusty conditions. DSC also offered an idyllic family setting, boding well for hot rodders and family. Being a well-known theme park on a local, national, and international level adds greatly to the overall entertainment value.
Now in 2011 the total entrants is pushing 3,000 cars and all indicators show that the expanded year cutoff and the new location at DSC have had a positive impact and bode well for the future.
Mentioned earlier was the giveaway program. This year at DSC the Shades of the Past Hot Rod Roundup No. 29 made a handful of rodders very happy but the financial "aid" goes beyond rodders and well into the local community. This year's fifty-fifty drawing approached $45,000, with $22,905 going to Steve Braden. (At the awards ceremony, upon receiving the cash prize, he reached into the box and pulled out a handful of bills and handed them to the "future rodder" who had pulled his winning ticket. One of those very neat touchy-feely moments rodders aren't normally associated with. We know one youthful rodder who enjoyed the rest of the weekend, assuming Mom didn't deposit all of the cash in a savings account.)
Shades also offers $10,000 to a preregistered entrant who has his or her name pulled during the awards ceremony. Even though you win the $10,000, your ticket is placed back into the drawing for a chance to win the giveaway car. This year Mary Curry walked away with the cash.
We mentioned that the Shades Car Club is well aware of their community obligations and in the past nine years the club has donated $39,700 to the Blount County Empty Pantry Fund, as well as an additional $39,700 to the Toys for Tots of Blount County. (At the time of this writing the club was preparing to give another $4,000.) Other community benefactors are the Ronald McDonald House of Knoxville at $2,500 and the Share it Forward program with another $2,500 that benefits Dollywood Company employees in need. (Editor's note: It's this type of community involvement that ingratiates rodders with community leaders and places our hobby in a good light with the community. It's also the right thing to do. —B.B.)
The Shades of the Past Hot Rod Roundup is well known for its awards. Rodders understand the judging is "tight" but fair. There's the coveted major awards that begin with the Top 25, which moves you along to the Fab Five, which moves you into contention for the Best Street Rod, Best Street Machine, and Best Street Cruiser, and then the biggie, Best Overall. The Best Overall is selected by the owners of the cars that make the Top 25—how's that for sharing the responsibility and reward?! This year the Fab Five were comprised of Alex Covington for his '67 Nova, Rodney Harris for his '32 Ford coupe, Doyle Thomas for his '63 Rambler (featured in this issue of SR), William Shores for his '71 Mustang, and Bruce Ricks for his '56 Ford. From this selection, winning their respective best of categories, were Harris (street rod), Covington (street machine), and Ricks (street cruiser). The Best Overall, as selected by the Top 25 owners, was Ricks for his '56 Ford named "Suncammer," built by Steve Cook of Oklahoma.
Other notable awards included the Street Rodder/Painless Performance Products Top 100 (10 recipients) and the Street Rodder Pick. (The AMSOIL/Street Rodder Road Tour Popular Hot Rodding Tri-Five Cruise also used the Shades event as the end destination of one of the weeklong tours, adding to the overall individuality of the event.) There were 16 Specialty Awards handed out by industry personalities. The SoffSeal Mighty Muscle comprises another collection of awards going to five outstanding muscle cars, with one being selected as the overall winner. This year it went to Jerry Dennis for his red '62 Chevy Impala 409-powered hardtop.
The Hot Rod Roundup also houses an event within itself. There's the Southeast Deuce Gathering sponsored by the Southeast Deuces that has been part of Shades since the inception. This year 100-plus '32s were present with Bobby Benfield awarded Best Closed, Bob Baker awarded Best Open, Gene Suelzle awarded Best Commercial, and Keith Rutherford awarded Ladies Choice.
Arguably, the event everyone is waiting for is the car giveaway. This year the Rat's Glass '32 Ford highboy roadster built at Bobby Alloway's Hot Rod Shop in Louisville, Tennessee, was the grand prize. Numerous industry manufacturers take part in supporting this project and it is appreciated by all—Shades and participants.
The Shades Car Club has given away "something" since 1987, and what you many not be aware of is each year there are two major prizes. They have given out 1 rolling chassis, 2 GMC shortbed pickups, 13 unfinished cars, 2 Mullins trailers, 22 newly built cars, and 3 restored cars. Of the giveaways, one of particular interest was the rolling chassis in 1988 that was provided by Boyd Coddington and was loaded with Lil' John Buttera custom-built pieces. For many years there was a giveaway car but there was also an unfinished car (required paint, upholstery, etc.) as a secondary prize. Back in 2005 there was a '33 blue highboy roadster given away but along with this was a silver '63 Buick Riviera. In 2006, aside from the Deuce highboy roadster, there was also a white '63 Ford Thunderbird given away. In 2007, aside from a silver Deuce highboy roadster, there was a black big-block '68 Chevy Malibu given out. In 1993 there were two Mullins trailers provided by Outlaw that were given away. There are many outstanding and well-known events within the rodding community. Now that the Shades of the Past Hot Rod Roundup has moved into this ranking, giving back to rodders and the community is likely one of the contributing factors to achieve this lofty status.
Next is the 30th anniversary of the Hot Rod Roundup in 2012 and all indicators are the Shades of the Past Street Rod Association is planning accordingly. Look for something special. Should you find yourself in this part of the country (or within a day's drive), this is one of the summer's keynote events. Best to register early and guarantee you have a room and be in the running for all of the other benefits.
Painless Performance Products presents Street Rodder Top 100

Tech Tip
Relays and solenoids take on a different look but have the same basic function. They are used to control high current flow by using internal contacts that are designed to do so. They require a small amount of current for their activation so the switch can be a small one in the dash or a sender in the engine.

I am sure there are others with more Colorado experience than me, who might think differently. But that is my two cents worth. Congratulations on drawing a tag, and good luck.

The Dumbbell Nebula (M27 or NGC 6853) in Vulpecula was discovered in 1764 by the French astronomer Charles Messier. This planetary nebula lies at a distance of approximately 1,200 light years and is estimated to be approximately 3,500 years of age. The luminous )main) body of the planetary is approximately 6 arc-minutes in diameter and the halo surrounding it is approximately 15 arc-minutes. While observing the Dumbbell Nebula I noted bright knots within the main body of the nebula, especially over the eastern half of the nebula (as visible in the inset sketch at 210x). This was one of my best views of the Dumbbell Nebula to date.

The East Central Mississippi Telephone Pioneers celebrated the Christmas season of giving Tuesday.
The organization of retired Bell telephone employees recently gave a donation of $1,000 to the Mississippi Wounded Warrior Project. It assists members of the military when they return from duty.
The Pioneers also donate socks and toiletries to the Veterans Nursing Home in Kosciusko.
"We like to give back to our community," said Teresa Westbrook, president of the East Central Mississippi Telephone Pioneers. "We're all, you know, local people that worked for the phone company. And we get together and we try to do things that we can help others around here."
The donation to the veterans home totaled around $500. The Telephone Pioneers sell cookbooks each year to help raise money for charitable projects.

Buffalo, NY (Sports Network) - The New York Rangers seemed to have finally
found their scoring touch at a most opportune time.
Behind Brad Richards' first career hat trick, the Rangers recorded their
highest scoring output of the season in an 8-4 verdict over the Buffalo Sabres
at First Niagara Center.
Richards, Carl Hagelin and Ryane Clowe all potted goals in the final 78
seconds of the first period to spur New York to its second lopsided victory in
as many nights. Richards also lit the lamp early in the second as part of a
five-goal outburst over a span of 2:58, the quickest for that amount in
franchise history.
It came just one night after New York matched a then-season best for goals in
a 6-1 home rout of Florida.
Clowe and Rick Nash each finished with a goal and an assist in the critical
win, which placed the Rangers two points in front of idle Winnipeg for the
eighth and final playoff seed in the Eastern Conference and one behind the
resting Islanders for seventh place. Anton Stralman and Ryan Callahan also
scored to support a 24-save effort from Henrik Lundqvist.
Buffalo had made a belated push for a postseason berth with a 6-2-0 stretch
entering the contest, but was officially eliminated from playoff contention
after having a three-game win streak halted.
Cody Hodgson, Nathan Gerbe, Drew Stafford and Mark Pysyk all tallied for the
Sabres, but goaltender Ryan Miller was lifted 1:13 into the second period
after permitting four goals on 14 shots
Jhonas Enroth didn't fare any better, allowing four goals on 15 chances after
taking over.
