Chef Academy: Chocolate Test
November 23, 2009 11:53 PM by Lisa Princ
Tonight on Chef Academy on BRAVO Chef Novelli puts the aspiring chefs through their very first test: chocolate. Can any of the students pass their first test or will they all fail? And who is getting on Chef Novelli's last nerve already and why? Keep reading for all the fun filled details.
It was quite an interesting evening on Chef Academy on BRAVO tonight. The very first Novelli Academy lesson was delayed as they awaited Emmanuel, who was late. After denying the reason for his tardiness, Chef Novelli bluntly requested that he not lie to him as he could tell by his face and eyes that Emmanuel had just woken up. Finally, after the delay, the class could begin their first lesson.
Chef Novelli started off the lesson by showing the students how to make some of his desserts which included: apple souffle, orange creme brulee, chocolate pots and caramel decorations. He then let them know that they would be put through their first pass/fail test tonight, and whomever passed would be allowed to attend the Novelli Academy opening that evening. Whomever failed would be marked with their first fail and would be sent home for the evening.
Chef Novelli took the class for a quick trip to the farmer's market prior to their test, thanks to Tracie who suggested a great market near her home. When they all went to meet back at the van an hour later, Emmanuel was no where to be found. Annoyed, Chef Novelli decided that they would leave without him and let him find his own way back. Maybe Emmanuel's lateness has something to do with the fact that he is also a porn star. Yes you read that correctly, Kyle and Kup discovered this on tonight's episode of Chef Academy on BRAVO and when confronted about it, Emmanuel did not deny it.
When Emmanuel finally arrived back in the classroom, neither Chef Novelli or Steve Kitchen were very pleased with him. Steve took the clock off the wall and handed it to Emmanuel saying he no longer had an excuse for being late. Chef Novelli also reiterated this, letting Emmanuel know that the clock was no joke and he was to take it home with him and bring it back each day. Way to get on the Chef's good side Emmanuel!
Now it was test time time on Chef Academy on BRAVO. Chef Novelli asked that the students each make chocolate pots and those who passed would serve them at the opening party. While everyone was enthusiastic, only 4 students passed the test. Leo, Zoe, Suzanne, all passed. Ironically, so did Emmanuel. After telling Emmanuel he was a real pain in the you know what he was, Chef Novelli went on to tell Emmanuel that his chocolate pots were even better than his own.
As for the remainder of the students they failed. Tracie, Kyle and Carissa failed right off the bat. Kup was told he failed as Chef Novelli found hair in his dessert. Is that even possible when Kup is bald? Sarah decided to be different and use sea salt in her chocolate and caramel topping, which Novelli noticed immediately as he ran to the sink to spit it out. Guess he isn't too subtle now is he?
Make sure to tune in next week at 11 pm for another all new episode of Chef Academy on BRAVO. See you after the show!

Wiretaps show harsh portrayal of Johnson in USD bribery case
San Diego Brandon Johnson remains the all-time leading scorer in the history of the University of San Diego men's basketball program. He also, according to federal court records, was a willing accomplice in a game-fixing scheme, making $5,000 to $10,000 to manipulate "approximately four games."
And Johnson's biggest regret appears to be that he didn't fix more.
Phone conversations the FBI secretly taped have Johnson saying he would have been willing to throw every game, and that he didn't take a shot in one game because it would have cost him $1,000.
The harsh portrayal of Johnson's role in the USD bribery case emerges in a 29-page document filed by federal prosecutors ahead of his sentencing Friday by U.S. District Judge Anthony Battaglia. Included are transcribed excerpts of wiretapped telephone calls between Johnson and T.J. Brown, a former USD assistant coach and the alleged go-between with the bettors.
In a lengthy interview with federal agents following his arrest in April 2011, Johnson admitted to knowing the point spreads of games and receiving several thousand dollars from bettors afterward. But, he insisted repeatedly, "I flat didn't throw any game. … When that game started till that game ends, nobody is in my head — no bet, nothing."
The bribery case involving Johnson and nine other defendants began nearly two years ago. Its three primary defendants — Steve Goria, Richard Garmo and Paul Thweni — all admitted in guilty pleas last summer to bribing Johnson to fix USD games during the 2009-10 season.
Goria was sentenced to 30 months and based on time served was released this week to a halfway house. Garmo and Thweni are to be sentenced March 15, and Brown on April 4.
Johnson, 26, pleaded guilty in November, but he did it without a formal plea agreement. He admitted only to unsuccessfully soliciting a member of the current team to fix games late in the 2010-11 season, after Johnson was no longer playing at USD.
The government is recommending Johnson serve one year in prison, but his attorney is urging probation without prison time. Johnson has remained free on bond since his arrest.
Prosecutors provided Battaglia with a DVD of tapped phone calls and urged him to listen to them before Friday's sentencing to "understand how little remorse Johnson had for his actions, how little respect he had for the USD players he reached out to, and generally speaking, how little respect he has for the game of basketball."
Johnson's court-appointed attorney, Oliver Cleary, reiterated in court filings this week that his client threw no basketball games, saying "there is no evidence confirming (Johnson) 'fixed' games or made any proceeds from fixing games," and the government's "assertion of unsubstantiated facts is inflammatory."
The tapped calls the prosecutors want the judge to review are from January and February 2011, the year after Johnson's senior season at USD. They are laced with expletives and racial epithets.
On the calls, Johnson references issues from the previous season with USD head coach Bill Grier — "I hate this coach," he says at one point — and how "I didn't really care about that season."
On Feb. 22, 2011, prosecutors said, Brown called Johnson to seek his assistance in recruiting a current USD player — since identified by U-T San Diego as forward Ken Rancifer — to fix a game, with Johnson no longer playing at the school.
The two talked about how much money they could have made the previous year had they been paid the same amount Rancifer was being offered, prosecutors said.
According to court records, Brown said: "Yeah, we'd have made a quarter million dollars a piece probably."

Chuck Olsons 56 CorvetteWritten by on February 1, 2002 Contributors: Wes Allison We May Never Achieve The Superlative, We Cant Help But Be Inspired By It
Its easy to understand why some people choose modern performance cars over vintage machines. Modern cars are just thatmodern. Their engines are tame, yet powerful; their interiors are comfortable, yet purposeful; their styling is clichéd yet inconspicuous. The latter is why we drive old cars at the expense of technology and refinement. We want distinctively styled cars that we can identify from a block away.
Chuck Olsons 56 Corvette is such a car. Arguably the most beautiful of the early solid-axle Corvettes, the 56-57 cars wont be mistaken for anything else. However, Chucks car no longer has a solid axle. In fact, all that remains of the stock suspension is the wheelbase. You see, Chucks got this friend, Bob Fuller of C&F Race Cars, and together they slipped a custom tube-frame chassis fitted with 92-Corvette independent suspension under the 46-year-old bodywork. Of course, the body wasnt always as nice as it is now.
The 56 was found in the back of a body shop in 1992 having been used as payment for its former owners unpaid debts. Four flat tires, broken windows, and a poorly repaired body didnt sway Chuck from hauling the whole mess home. He wanted a car that was so far gone he could justify making extensive mods.
The tube frame didnt clear the stock floorpan, so it was sliced out and replaced with a custom pan produced from a mold that Chuck whittled out of plywood. Stock wheelhousings were cut and replaced with widened tubs made from Chucks wood veneer molds. And since the cars poor condition required extensive bodywork anyway, the two craftsmen reshaped the rear wheel openings to appear more symmetrical with the front. The hoodscoop is a one-off hand-laid piece, too. Its there to funnel atmosphere into the fire-breathing 400-cube small-block. And considering this car weighs less than 2,600 pounds with Chuck at the wheel, its 532 hp is wretched excess for most, and just enough for a car crafter. Heck, some motorcycles are lucky to manage a power-to-weight ratio under five pounds per horsepower.
Most of us will only dream of building a car of this caliberwere not sure we could ever carry something this radical through to completion. But although we may never achieve the superlative, we cant help but be inspired by it.

It's hard not to like the futuristic, swoopy styling of '56-'57 Corvettes. Even the essentially stock, chrome-accented bodywork blends seamlessly with modern 17-inch rolling stock.Kudos to Chuck for retaining the centrally mounted gauges and two-pod dash cluster. Auto Meter gauges replaced the stock meters, installed without any clearancing of the factory holes. The stock speedometer's backing plate was painted to match the silver faces.Don't let the docile-looking aqua rocker covers fool you—you're looking at a monster of a small-block mill. Winston Cup–inspired Buick-style symmetrical-port Dart heads allow the cfm numbers to support over 530 hp and 500 lb-ft of torque. Don't spend too much time looking for the master cylinder either—it's hidden inside the passenger compartment, leaving the firewall totally smooth. The hydraulic-clutch master cylinder that engages the Richmond six-speed transmission is also hidden under the dashboard. The result is a tasty, uninterrupted view of the engine, braided stainless hose, and ceramic-coated pipe. The underside of the car is done just as cleanly. All the hoses and lines run through the frame tubing.

Homemade Christmas: Felt Poinsettia Pins
If you've been standing
behind me in in line at
Michael's, Walmart, or
any other store I've haunted
in the past few weeks...
this would be
a view of my ponytail.
See that cute little felt flower?
(It's really a felt pin but...
I like to clip it on my ponytail elastic)
Here's a closer look...
(pstt...there's one on my hoodie too)
I've been a
busy little crafty elf
making these (recycled) felt poinsettia pins.
(I shipped 30 of them to
Amarillo, Texas last year!)
Each one is different,
I mix and match my reds and pinks
and use vintage buttons in the center.
They're adorable on
top of packages
(see this one under my Christmas tree!)
My daughter has one sewn onto
her pony tail holder
(if you want one of those just "Convo" me on Etsy!)
Want one of your own?
Hop over to my
and get one while they last!
(there's a link on my side bar...

We'll say it again — fund the Bay Park pipe

The Federal Emergency Management Agency recently rejected the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation's request to fund a $690 million outflow pipe that would stretch from the Bay Park Sewage Treatment Plant, in East Rockaway, three miles into the Atlantic Ocean. The decision makes little sense.

My 10 Minutes of Peeptastic Fame
This is the kind of thing I would have posted on my blog if I had one this spring. I entered the Washinton Post's Peeps Diorama contest on a whim and actually made it as a semi-finalist. Not only that but they picked mine as one of the examples that ran in the Sunday Source Print edition. The link still works to see the slideshow at the post so I'm throwing it on here tonight. I've already got next year's entry planned out.
Check out the gallery at the Washington Post.

Don't worry though, we have a lot more Clincher Wheels in stock than that.View Similar Products
Mavic Ksyrium Elite S Road Wheelset - Clincher - 2014 $0.00
Collectively, we can't remember a wheelset that more of us have ridden and loved then the Mavic Ksyrium Elite S Clincher Wheelset. We've followed it from generation to generation for one reason -- Mavic always manages make it better. This year, we find that the Ksyrium Elite S has gone on a diet and stolen some of its siblings' technologies. Lighter, faster, and smoother than ever, the new age of the Ksyrium has arrived.
For this iteration of the Ksyrium Elite S, Mavic made strives to balance opposites -- it's trickier than it sounds. The objective was to increase stiffness, while also increasing compliance, and somehow at the same time, decrease weight. Needless to say, that to achieve this, Mavic loaded the Ksyrium Elites with proprietary, patented technology. Starting with the rims, Mavic again went with the venerable Maxtal aluminum alloy. Exclusive to Mavic, Maxtal was developed in order to crush the conventional 6061 alloy. In comparison, Maxtal provides a higher strength to weight ratio and is around 30% more resistant to stress. This strength is further expanded upon by Mavic's Soude Usine Process or SUP. When the rim is being shaped and welded, this process is responsible for arc welding the rim joint into a seam that's then given a smooth finish. It might sound fairly boilerplate, but this exclusive process improves wheel balance, eliminates brake shudder, and increases the overall strength of the rim.
Now that we've covered the process of shaping the rim, it's time to bring spokes into the picture. Once again, Mavic utilized multiple production technologies to bolster the Elite's output and aesthetics. Where the spoke meets the rim, Mavic uses its Fore technology to eliminate drilling through the rim bed. The process involves pushing down on the lower of the two rim bridges, and then threading the alloy to allow the nipple to thread directly into it. This leaves the the upper bridge untouched, and accordingly, it increases the wheel's rigidity by 20% and makes it four times more resistant to fatigue. And while rigidity is a must to get up to speed quickly, maintaining that speed on an upward gradient requires a minimization of inertia. Need a refresher in physics? Inertia is the resistance of an object to change its state of motion or rest. Through its patented Inter Spoke Milling (think of those little ridges along the rim from spoke to spoke), Mavic was able to reduce rotational weight and balance the rigidity. This liberates the Elites from high points of inertia, and thus opens the wheels up for quick bursts of acceleration on climbs and through sprints.
Following the spokes down to the hubs, this year, Mavic used its Isopulse lacing pattern and flange design. Increasing the dish amounts to a superior balance and spoke tension. So, to do this, Isopulse requires radial driveside lacing and a two-cross non-driveside lacing. Basic, yes, but when you look at the flanges of the rear hub, you'll notice that the driveside is oversized and circular in comparison to the non-drive's five-point flange. Not only does this system raise rigidity, but it also creates a heightened stability. And once the wheels get turning, you'll notice the fluidity in which they operate. The Elites spin on Mavic's fully-adjustable QRM+ bearings, and the free hub uses a 100% aluminum design that's been complimented by stainless steel inserts between the pawl and hub body.
This year, the Ksyrium Elites have been designed for usage with Mavic's GripLink and PowerLink tires. Featuring a low rolling resistance, durable compound, high TPI, and front/rear specificity the new Mavic tires unleash the speed of the Elites and tow the line through corners in any weather condition. Also for this year, the wheels are laced with 18/20 bladed spokes. And for an extra aerodynamic benefit, the wheels have varied rim depths at 22mm up front and 25mm at the rear. This design plan is typically exclusive to far more expensive wheelsets, as it significantly reduces drag by increasing laminar airflow.
The Mavic Ksyrium Elite S Clincher Wheelset is available in the color Black and in both Campagnolo and Shimano/SRAM freehub compatibilities.

Another great Mavic wheelset
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I ran a set of Mavic Aksiums on my CAAD10 for more than 10k miles without any problems, and when I decided to upgrade the wheels on my Cervelo R3 my first choice was something in the Mavic line. I chose these because of their reputation, my previous experience with Mavic, it checked off all the boxes that I needed and was a reasonable mid-price choice. I shed over 200 grams from the Fulcrum Racing 5.5's that came on the bike and it is apparent when you accelerate. The bearings are silky smooth. It's early yet but I think they are going to be a winning choice.
Great wheels!!
2013 Salt to Saint, these wheels saved my life !!
Great Wheelset!!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
When I first put these wheels on my bike just prior to doing the Salt to Saint relay, I could not believe the difference they made. I was much faster, the bike just rolled down the road with no effort. Climbing was great, and trust me I had to do the Traverse Mountain climb, and I can tell you if it wasn't for these wheels I for sure would not have made it!! Great product!!
Is the price of $799.90 for the front and...
Is the price of $799.90 for the front and back wheel? Thanks.
Hey Julius,
The price listed is for the wheelset and it comes with both front and rear wheel.
Good wheelset but watch the tires
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've used these now for 6 months and feel I got a great value for the price. Wheels remain true and are the weight reduction from my base set is of noticeable value.
The one drawback to this wheelset are the tires. I was enthused, at first, since they seemed a nice benefit. Good apparent quality and came mounted on the wheels. However, the front "Griplink" tire experienced three flats in my first two rides. It seemed to suck any rock chips and minute metal debris up into the tire, holding it there until it pierced the tube. In all three incidents I found other debris in the rubber that hadn't yet gotten to the tube (but would have had something else not beat them to the punch). The rear tire lasted a few more rides before its first puncture but I just don't trust the Mavic tires enough to have kept it on.
So, good wheelset and value but be cautious if you ride common streets as the tires grip debris better than any others I've used.
Where exactly to you place the spacer for...
Where exactly to you place the spacer for a 10-speed set up?
Put the spacer on first, then install the 10-speed cassette as you normally would.
True value...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
At $550 they were a no-brainer (still a bargain at $800, imho). Light and strong, they're the best upgrade I've made yet. Almost 3k miles and no issues. They're as true now as the day I got 'em.
I need to vent about one thing, tho: When the holes were drilled for the tube stems, they weren't finished. I went through two inner tubes on the front before I realized it was the scalpel-like edge of the hole that was slicing through the tubes. Maybe they were the last ones off the line late on a Friday afternoon. Just made me wonder what else might have been over-looked in the QC process. But, a piece of duct tape solved the problem.
One other thing; beware the rear tire, the PowerLink. I've gone through three so far. Sidewall blowout each time. I don't think I'm too hard on them. And at less than 180, I don't think it's a weight issue. Maybe too delicate for daily use?
Bottom line on the wheels: you can't go wrong.
Over 195 lbs - Beware
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I would love to highly recommend the Mavic Krysium Elite S - however - After 7 months, a couple of centuries, and exactly 2294.97 miles the rear wheel developed a crack at one of the nipples. No sense in getting that trued..... speaking getting trued after those miles I had the front true just recently and the rear was never trued. Really loved the wheel set until this happened. For the money it was an awesome deal, $550.00 or so 1.5 pounds lighter the crap that came on my Spec Roubaix. They Climbed better, Rolled better, Looked better. Now I need to see how Competitive Cyclist and Mavic handle the warranty process. I see from other reviews I am not alone as a guy over 200 with a cracked rear wheel. I count about 6 of us out there from various review threads. Manufacturing issue or should they issue a warning if you are over 200???
Same thing happened to me (190 pounds) on the equipe s. I replaced it with this set so I hope I have better luck! Love the stiffness so I hope these hold up to American weight
exact thing happened to my first set and now the second set i purchased just over 2 years and about 8,000 miles ago just developed a crack in the same place. I'm only 180 lbs, so I think the wheels are low quality crap and I'll never buy another
Durable and reliable
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have about 7,500 miles on these wheels and can't imagine buying a different wheel to meet my needs. I'm 6'3" and 195 lbs and ride about 3,500 miles per year. I have only had to true them once, but that was very minimal work and more of a "hey, can you true my wheels while I have my bike" in the shop. The only negative thing I can say about these wheels is the rear free hub requires maintenance about 2 times per year to clean and re-lube the free hub. I live in a very dry climate where it is recommended to do this 2x per year if you ride a lot.
Another minor complaint is that the bladed spokes get caught in the cross winds more so than a set of wheels with standard spokes. I ride these on gravel roads, up long mountainous climbs, down long mountainous descents, and hardly notice any flex either. I've had the Aksiums as well and there is a very noticeable difference between the Ksyrium Elite's and the Askiums (weight, flex, rolling resistance).
Just as an update: I recently had problems with my cassette wobbling too much on my free hub. Took it to the shop where they checked everything and swapped out the free hub body - didn't solve the wobble problem Turns out, the hub actually wore down underneath the free hub rendering the rear wheel useless. Wheels were 3 years old and Mavic did not warranty.
Based on my size (190 ish lbs) and research I've done, I'm going with the Ksyirum Elite S wheels as a replacement. We shall see how they hold up and if I have issue with the rims cracking.
Regardless, Competitive Cyclist customer service and help with ordering the new wheels is second to none.
Hi there, I'm very interested in these...
Hi there,
I'm very interested in these wheels - however, does it make a difference that i'm a small woman (118 lbs)? I recently had a used carbon wheel set (bontrager) and who knew?the hub was broken. I got a few hundred miles but that was it. I hated the wheels?never felt very solid. Previous to these wheels i had Shimano Aluminum that come with Specialized Ruby?Okay to go with Mavic even though i'm not big person? I race in triathlons.
Is this a good fit?
Mavic wheels have a solid reputation for quality, the bearings and the freehub are made with high-end precision. Your size should never affect the performance or longevity of a wheel, in fact you are on the lighter side and typically lighter riders are less hard on wheels. OK to go with Mavic. Your question about using for Triathlons, this is not an aerodynamic product specific to triathlon but will work for any type of road riding or time trials. They'd be a great training/racing wheel.
Big guy approved!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I'm 6'2, 245 pounds (actually now I'm at 220 with a goal of 215), and kept popping spokes on my original wheelset, which was brand new.
I knew I needed a wheelset that can handle heavier riders and after chatting with customer service, I was led to these wheels. After four months of continuous use I have nothing but positive things to say, and couldn't be happier. I'm hopeful these willl last for a couple more years.
This a follow up to my original review in December. In February of 2014, while washing my bike, I noticed some cracks developing on my rear wheel. The cracks were emerging where the spokes attached into the rim. I counted three cracks (one crack at three different points/spokes). Needless to say I was a bit shocked and disappointed.
The good news is the wheels were still under warranty and thanks to Competitive Cyclist (CC) I was able to get the rear wheel replaced. The process took about three to four weeks.
After speaking to the folks at CC they mentioned that while this issue isn't common, they have seen it before.
Perhaps the cracks were caused by the fact that I'm a a bigger guy and pretty strong (former college football player), and the high levels of torque stressed the wheel, I don't know. My plan is to continue to ride hard and I'll continue to update this post as needed in the hopes of informing anyone with similar circumstances as me.
All in all, I still recommend the wheels.
Incredible Wheelset
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought these after two years of riding, researching, and investigating. Of course I was drawn to the carbon wheels, but always find my way looking at these sub $1,000 wheels. I always thought there might be a catch to these.....none. They are quite simply the best aluminum clinchers I have come across.
City riding for 3 years....never had to true the wheels yet.
Mountain riding....spin smoothly up the hill, and stop with pure confidence the whole way down.
Flat lands....not the greatest aerodynamically, and the ride can be a little tough, but coupled with Mavic tires and the results are glorious.
I would buy them again if I had too, but fortunately, that wont be the case. Just wish they could turn these into a nice cyclocross specific wheelset.
Has anybody who has purchased this wheelset,...
Has anybody who has purchased this wheelset, or any mavic wheelset, noticed if their rear wheel's valve stem hole is off-center?
Not really sure what you mean. Do you mean the Valve stem hole is off centre between the spokes, or your valve doesn't fit as it is off centre.
Damaniac, I mean the valve stem hole is actually off center between the spokes (where the actual valve stem of the tire tube goes into). A friend's set of the same mavic ksyrium elite s has the same off centered valve stem hole.
If you are looking down at your valve stem from the top, yes it is off center as it comes out through the rim. However, unless I am mistaken, if you look at the valve hole in the rim from the inside of the rim when the tire and tube are removed, the valve stem is centered on the rim. This "off center" appearance is due to the shape of the rim. Hope this helps.
Is this the 2013 Mavic Elite S WTS...
Is this the 2013 Mavic Elite S WTS Wheelset?
99.9% sure that this is the Elite S, you can tell from the hubs. I have the 2011-2012 Elite'f for my other bike, and the hubs are all black, with no 'S' on them. You should be good to go; they are great daily drivers and should hold up for a long time :)
Any confirmation from CC that these are...
Any confirmation from CC that these are Elite S version per Mavics web page : http://www.mavic.com/wheels-roadtriathlon-ksyrium-elite-s#.UkEAsGt5mSM
Never mind, close up of the hub shows Elite S.
Do these come with tires?
The Gold Standard Of Wheels - Deserved!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have many wheels and the Elites are the best value by far and the wheel by which all others should be compared. Spending more may or may not get you better wheels as I have the R-SYS wheels which are more than double the cost of these and there is negligible difference in speed. The TRACOMP carbon fiber spokes of the R-SYS wheels smooth the ride a little but hardly justify their cost and the weight drop is not really noticeable. Most carbon fiber rim'd wheels at 2 or 3 times the cost weigh as much or more so I have my doubts they are worth it so expect to pay many times more for a wheel that is marginally better and you could easily spend triple for a wheel that is at most equally as good. The durability is as good as the performance of these wheels too, they last forever and I've yet needed to true mine after thousands of miles. Also, my more expensive Easton EA90SLX wheels are good, very aero wheels but still not as good as Elites unless going downhill at max speed is your only concern. Yes, Mavics aren't as aero as other wheels but don't think you are going to win races with more aero wheels unless it is only a downhill race. On the flats and climbing, Elites are just superior or equal to almost all wheels. The Backcountry deal should not be passed up if you are riding on OEM wheels of a bike shop bike that cost less than $6000 as they are significantly inferior to Elites. Also, stay away from the Equipe's which are over priced Aksium's. You either get Aksium's which are the entry level bargain of all time through Backcountry or the Elites, the best choice to go to the next level. PS:The Aksium wheelset blows away all OEM wheels on bike shop bikes that sell for less than $3000.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I asked my cycling experts with many years of road cycling experience, what is the ONE thing that I can do to my bike a 2012 Specialized Roubaix to make the biggest performance impact?
Replace the wheels with Mavic Ksyrium Elites! So I did!
What an AMAZING difference it makes!! The ability to accelerate, gain speed and maintain speed is the biggest thing. It helps immensely climbing hills, due to the wheels being so light and stiff. When cornering, the wheel turns crisply and sharply compared to the original wheels. You can carve a turn confidently. The ride quality is excellent, even the though the wheel is stiffer, it rides as smooth as the original wheels. I am Super Pumped with these wheels!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This code has expired. I'm interested in making the purchase right away if you an provided an updated coupon code. Thanks!!
Can these wheels be used with 28c tires?...
Can these wheels be used with 28c tires?
Any clincher race wheel is OK for 28c tires. Ideally you would want a slightly wider wheel to minimize the risk of pinch flats but narrow race wheels work fine.
Great all around
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought these wheels new from my LBS 3 years ago and they have been incredible! I have never had to true them and have put around 5K miles on them. I've raced and won crits on them, placed top 10 on a few century races, and a podium finish in a road race last year. They are incredibly versatile and they last! These wheels have sold me on Mavic and when I upgrade wheels I will stick with Mavic and probably pick up some Cosmic Carbones.

Hi :)
we have a mailaccount firstname.lastname@example.com with a forwarding address email@example.com on zimbra version 3.1.1 (we will update soon :P). I think everyone knows about the problem with "don't keep a local copy" and postfix.
I want do emtpy the mailbox email@example.com on command line with zmprov and I already found the right mailbox with:
zmprov ga email@example.com | grep -i 'zimbraId'
mysql> SELECT id FROM mailbox WHERE account_id = '$zimbraId';
But I can't imagine that I have to kill one file or something like this :) So does anyone know a solution for my problem. And don't tell me to update zimbra :P
By the way: is there a document for zmprov with some examples? I like this command and we already wrote some scripts for simple administration :)
thank you

A Home for the Holidays
There are so many aspects involved in your decision of choosing a house plan. As the holidays approach, consider whether your home plan will accommodate your needs to host or house your friends and family. With that in mind, take a look at this Southern two-story house plan. Its stately columns are just begging to be wrapped in garland and holiday lights. Imagine your guests approaching the front door following a walkway lined in luminaries. With the dining room windows in the front of the house, this is a perfect place to display a menorah. Your guests can turn left into the formal dining room with its Kwanzaa feast already on the table, or they can continue straight into the great room. Just think of a grand Christmas tree to fill that great space with its spacious two-story ceiling. While the guests enjoy the view through the multitude of windows or cozy up to the fireplace, the family chef can take command of the kitchen. With plenty of elbow room and work space including a stand-alone island, don't think twice about recruiting helpers. The walk-in pantry makes it convenient to store snacks for the bowl games. Even if you're not located in a warm climate, stalwart tailgaters will certainly be willing to step out onto the covered deck and grill up some goodies by game time. Dining options are plentiful. Too many for the dining room? Some traditions separate the younger ones by seating them at the "kids' table" which works well in the breakfast room. The snack bar provides adequate space for serving buffet style meals whether it's latkes or the Christmas goose. Informal munching can be accomplished in the great room lap style. Chase the kids upstairs to that bonus room that you've converted to a playroom, while you clean up the kitchen and then enjoy visiting with the rest of the guests. When it comes time for that long winter's nap, you are well equipped to handle all those that sleep over. Convert the study, conveniently located near a full bathroom, into a guest room. Utilize that bonus room on the second floor or double up in the two secondary bedrooms. Once you have settled everyone in, take a moment for yourself. Wash away an exciting but hectic day in your own whirlpool tub in the bathroom of your master suite. Happy holidays to all and to all a good night.

Associated Press Release
ATLANTA (AP) -- The home improvement retailer Lowe's plans to hire 54,000 part-time workers this spring, and company officials say they expect 9,000 of the jobs to become permanent positions.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the company's hiring plans reflect a gradual turnaround in the housing market, a rebound in the economy and an improving job market.
John Challenger, of the job placement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas Inc., says the large-scale hiring effort reflects another trend as well. Challenger says companies are relying more on part-timers to fill specific needs and they are using the opportunity to identify permanent workers who fit in with the company's culture.
Executives with the Mooresville, N.C.-based Lowe's said the company is hiring in customer support, including cashiers, lawn and garden specialists, loaders and stockers.

Any good ones?
In section 10 a couple of old guys (70+) were grousing about someone standing two rows in front of them. Best part was that the guy who was standing was just as old as they are.

I wasnt there, but I heard our receivers couldn't catch their head if it fell off their shouders.
Some idiot in the 2nd row of section 30 in the student section just blabbered on and on the whole game trying to sound smart about football rules with his girlfriend. He was wrong about everything and would constantly make announcements to everyone around them, mostly about not blaming the officials for bad calls. He made watching a game so much less enjoyable than it should be.
Pretty sad no one has ever seen a cyclone victory vs OU in jack trice. That is amazing really.
Idiot in section E, about row 10, yelled repeatedly "Senor Taco" each time Edwin attempted a kick. NO CLASS, AND NOT FUNNY. Racial jokes ............ummmm, no.

I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.
Audrey Hepburn
Yeah, thats not funny.
Thanks to the season ticket holders behind us in Section F who sold their tickets to OU fans. The OU fans who were okay except for this woman with them who knew nothing about football. After they scored their touchdown before the half and OU is lining up to kick off she exclaims, "Oh, was that a touchdown? Sweet. So what were they cheering about down on that end? What? It's only worth 3 points?" I felt sorry for the kid sitting with her who really was frustrated explaining why flags were flying or who had the ball.
Now I know why people keep complaining about ticket holders selling their tickets to visiting team fans. It's really really annoying.
No matter what, I could NEVER cheer for Dirt and Urine.
In Section B, a guy in front of me was losing his mind about how the receivers are going to school for free on scholarship, and that their top priority is catching the damn football and they can't even do that.
"Catch the damn ball" was heard in my living room. I may have been the only person in my house at the time...
Heard an OU girl on the hillside ask why they only got 6 points for the touchdown. Her male counterpart was having difficulty explaining the concept of an extra point.
I was watching from home and thought I heard something from the stands during OU's first or second penalty. As the camera guy was zooming in on the ref for announcement I swear I heard someone yell "...illegal (something) defense. 200 yard penalty. Touchdown". It made me chuckle. Anyone else watching hear it? I may have to go back and check the DVR.

under cfh (in all likelihood).
seems a safe bet the media expectation will be low once again next season as well considering we lose 5 of our top 8 players. only proven players returning will be ejim, niang and gibson. really can't see the media giving us much of a shot next season. regardless of what we think, the media isn't going to give any credit to incoming freshmen and transfers at isu until they prove themselves. that only happens at KU.
just another year cfh will have to prove them wrong. it surprised me to think we were picked 8th this season with the group of SR's we had coming back. lot can happen between now and seasons end, but i cannot believe with a down big 12 we end up in the bottom half this season.
not that the the media's opinions really mean crap.
tough to predict next year's lineup.
If we finish there this year... I'm blaming you for the jinx
Next year will be tough imo.
We're always under rated. I quit looking at our preseason projections a while back the "experts" never respect us.
ISU never gets respect. Just ask the 2000-01 team. I believe we were picked to finish 7th that year. We won the conference...
"The greatest risk in life is not taking one"
wonder what our highest preseason projection has ever been...anybody...?
Originally Posted by swarthmoreCY

i'm thinking that too, but the transfer experiment has worked in cfh's favor so far. perhaps next season will be no different. there will be a better mix of transfers, proven players, and highly touted underclassmen next season. hope they keep the energy rolling.
probably the 01-02 season
big 12 wont be that good next year
there will be plenty of room and not a lot of opposition to move up again
Thomas will get respect as a freshman. Morris probably wont and the Jucos definately wont with the exception of maybe Hogue. Yeah, we will get picked 6th or 7th next season. Remember, KSU, OSU & OU lose some quality players. Wouldn't be surprised to see Austin leave BU after this season leaving them down as well. I am not too worried about next season tbo. Out of conference will be a lot like this year I think. We will lose to quality opponents and beat lesser ones. Start clicking much more come conference play.
I never pay much attention to what the "experts" say about ISU preseason. Cyclones never get respect until they've proven everybody else wrong
Picking us 8th this year was completely stupid. It's saying that five teams would pass ISU from last year. It's saying that true freshman and transfers for OK State, OU, KState, Baylor and Texas were all locks to be productive players but transfers who lead the MWC conference in scoring and hit big shots in Final Fours are high risk gambles. It's saying quite a few true freshman ranked below Niang were a safer bet to contribute than Niang. It's saying empty gyms in towns where people don't even like college basketball and ignore their teams are more of an advantage than Hilton.

Only Kansas has finished at the top of the Big 12 more. So we're #2 in reality of winning the thing...a very distant #2 :-)
for those of you complaining about the "experts" or the "media," the big12 preseason polls are conducted by the b12 coaches.
Look at what we returned for this year and justify why we should've been higher than 8th. We lost a TON from last season. On paper, 8th made sense. What happens between the preseason poll and the actual games is another story.

Steelville, MO (KSDK) - A Crawford County woman charged with involuntary manslaughter in a fatal crash more than two years ago, is now facing more legal trouble.
25 year old Andrea Macier of Cuba was formally charged with driving while intoxicated and leaving the scene of the June 2010 incident that killed 26 year old Christopher Bell.
Macier was arrested and charged with an involuntary manslaughter crime several months after she provided police with conflicting accounts of what happened the day the victim died.
Originally, Macier told investigators Bell was driving the car and stopped to relieve himself on the side of Cotton Dodd Road. Macier claimed at the time she was sitting inside the car when it began to roll forward, striking and running over Bell.
Witnesses told police both Macier and Bell were intoxicated at the time, and Macier was the driver of the car.
When pressed for the truth by authorities, Macier stopped cooperating with police and requested an attorney. She's scheduled to return to court September 25th on the latest charges.
No trial date has been set in the involuntary manslaughter case which was moved to Wayne County on a change of venue.

Herein lies the Writing Thread! Usually I just post something brief and then allow the participants to engage one another, unshackled by rules like a meeting of Tea Partiers in a debate with Muslims.
However! I propose the following rules to the writing thread, and what this thread should be about.
1.) This thread should obviously be about your own writing.
Your post should be about one of the following things.
2.) A pitch. A story you're thinking about writing, ideas you're tossing around to solicit for feedback.
3.) Brief poetry can be posted in full. Just don't make your poetry a full length story.
4.) A short story you've written that you would like to post, in part. Since a short story can run 2000 to 5000 words, do not post in full. You may post sensible length excerpts, preceded by synopsis of that portion of the story for context.
5.) A long story or novel you've written that you'd like to post, in part. Since a novel can run from 80000 words to 120000 words or more, do not post in full. You may post a sensible length excerpt, preceded by synopsis of that portion of the story for context.
Things to avoid.
Don't get in a hissy fit about criticism. It's the only way to grow as a writer.
Don't just criticize to criticize. In other words, don't be a Debby Downer. List what you think a writer did well, in addition to criticism. Tone means a lot. Don't be overly negative in the tone of your criticism.

More than fifty workers showed up at the Lauderdale County Courthouse Tuesday afternoon for the first training session.
Circuit Clerk Donna Jill Johnson says the workers were hired by the Democratic and Republican party people to handle the Aug. 2 primary and the potential Aug. 23 runoff.
"This is hands on training with handouts," said Johnson. "And what's so wonderful about it is that the Democratic and Republican party people contract our five election commissioners that are trained for elections and really rely on their wisdom and knowledge and expertise to assist."
Johnson says there are roughly 44,000 registered voters in Lauderdale County.

This Week's 5 Best Moves and Blunders in Business
Companies can do brilliant things, but there are also times where they fall flat on their faces. Sometimes CEOs can save the day, but at other times, they say and do the darndest things. There were plenty of winners and blunders this week: These were my favorites.

From spools of specially treated floss and activating rods to gums, the Supersmile Tooth Whiteners line brings an arsenal of tooth-brightening products to your disposal. Regular brushing, flossing, and mouth-rinsing alone may not be enough to keep those heavily used teeth as gleaming and ivory-toned as they could be. Stains build up over years of eating and drinking—not least from such irresistible but discoloring beverages as coffee, tea, and wine—and the mineral composition of the tooth itself can change its outward hue and luster. Supersmile Tooth Whiteners can address these natural processes, working to restore your smile to its full potential—bright, gleaming, and wide.
Supersmile's premier whitening and cleaning formulas and designs introduce an easy but robust, gentle but thorough oral-care system to your bathroom sink. Supersmile Tooth Whiteners come in a variety of forms, but all work toward eliminating stains and brightening the tooth's surface to give you a more confident smile. Not only that, but they also attend to some basic dental hygiene, targeting plaque and odor-causing bacteria. These products also perform equally well on caps, dentures, and other amendments.
Whitening and cleaning applications are most effective in combination, and Supersmile Tooth Whiteners are meant to be integrated into a regimen to achieve their potential. They help both prepare the teeth and enamel for other attention and address nooks and crannies that brushes and rinses don't always attend to.
Supersmile Whitening Accelerator Component is designed to work in conjunction with toothpaste to enhance whitening, avoiding the messiness of whitening trays. Composed of ingredients like urea peroxide and sodium saccharinate, the product is entirely safe on enamel and restores whiteness to veneers, bonding, caps, and dentures. For proper use, apply equal amounts of whitening accelerator and toothpaste on a dry toothbrush, and scrub your teeth with a tight, circular motion for two minutes, twice daily.
Supersmile Professional Whitening Gum is all-natural and sugar-free product. Armed with Calprox (Supersmile's proprietary form of calcium peroxide), the gum improves breath, whitens teeth, eliminates surface stains, and promotes the health of your gums—and a main ingredient, Xylitol, both sweetens the gum itself and fights against cavities.
Supersmile Professional Activating Rods work effectively in combination with the Supersmile Professional Whitening System by priming teeth and preparing enamel. Mint-flavored, the rods clean the tooth surface with sodium bicarbonate and prepare the enamel with hydrogen peroxide. Swabbing the activating gel over your teeth once a week ahead of brushing with the Professional Whitening System makes it an easy addition to the routine.
A cutting-edge product, Supersmile Whitening Floss employs the power of Calprox and baking soda to whiten between teeth and freshen breath during your flossing routine, attacking stains and plaque, both. This isn't your average floss: It brings state-of-the-art Supersmile musclepower to its performance.

When entering the Backseat Diner, it's not only like visiting one of the malt shops of the 1950s and early '60s, it's like sitting down at the kitchen table and having mom or grandma serve up a heaping helping of downhome cooking.
That's the way it has been, and that's the way Sarah Cassiday likes it.
Sarah took over Feb. 1, as the new owner of the Backseat Diner, breaking a long family tradition. Jeff Davis and wife Nita had operated the diner for several years, dating back to before the name change nearly 10 years ago. The Davis' operated the Burger Boy at the same location and Jeff's sister operated the restaurant before that.
Sarah plans some special promotions, menu specials and events to celebrate the restaurant's 10th year as Backseat Diner and Drive-In, but beyond that, not a lot will change.
"Everything is staying the same, the hours, the décor, the food, the service. We're still going to be doing the same things for the community and hosting the car cruises and things like that," Cassiday said.
"We will still have lunchtime deliveries to the businesses.
"We have a lot of long-time customers who enjoy the meals," said Cassiday. She noted filling to-go orders for residents of the care centers.
The car cruises are traditionally the third Fridays of the month and run from April through September.
While the food is for sale, nostalgia is free at the Backseat.

It's the final Grand Slam tournament of the year—the one that makes or breaks seasons, and sometimes careers.

Sweet Maria's Weblog
Fresh Roasted Coffee
Sept. 3, 2015
Roasted Ethiopia Guji Zone Akrabi - This coffee shows sweet fruits and soft citrus notes as the cup cools. Honey and muscovado sugar sweetness long into the finish. City roast.
Roasted Rwanda Kivu Kanzu - Brown sugar sweetness, cinnamon aroma, very pleasantly bittersweet - dark cocoa and caramel flavor. City+ roast.
Roasted Liquid Amber Espresso Blend - It's ideal for milk drinks, as this intense bittersweet cuts through the steamed milk. Rustic sweetness, spice, savory notes, long aftertaste. Monsooned coffee and a small percentage of Robusta add crema and body. Roasted to Full City.
Roasted Espresso Monkey Blend - This coffee is balanced between high and low tones, fruited-chocolate roast flavors, and slightly rustic fruited accent notes. Roasted to Full City.
We also have all of these coffees in stock, in their green, unroasted form. Pick some up along with your roasted coffee and compare your roasts to ours. You may be surprised at how a roasting method and technique can affect the end result and at how there are a lot of "right" ways to roast coffee.

The Goal
August 27, 2015
We have a new architecture underlying the commerce side of our web site. It's been a retrograde step in terms of front-end features (and back-end too), but it's been a necessary step to get to where we want to go. I wrote a long, phlegmatic blog post with a very selective history of our shopping carts, and expressing current frustrations from our end (which I know echo frustrations of those using our cart now). A scintillating read. But on the more positive side, I wanted to share some mockup images of what we are developing for the site now. These are my crude photoshop mockups, so don't look too, too carefully. But they sketch out the features we are aiming for. We should some of these features available first week of September.
Green Coffee List
The SM Web Site Saga by T.O.

I wanted to share ideas about the future of our Green Coffee List and our Reviews, so click here to jump down the page if you want to skip all my phlegmatic ramblings and see the mockup images that envision our future Green Coffee List. -Tom

The Backdrop
I'm not going to be opaque here ... things have been rough on us the last few months. It has led me to some reflection about 17 years of Sweet Maria's. Please excuse my candor; my style is not the usual press-release pablum.
The web has changed so much since those days when I used a text editor to write basic html and upload the first Sweet Maria's site. That was late 1997, not the early internet by any means, but also not the fancy graphicized browsing experience of 2010 nor the mobile-centric internet of today.
I reluctantly signed on to a basic shopping cart (Miva Merchant - it still exists!) in 2000 or so, because I just couldn't handle phone and fax orders at that point. And my "secure order form" that was called up by https but sent an unencrypted email (!) wasn't really up to snuff. But in 2000, it wasn't a big issue. These days, both the security requirements and the demand for features is way beyond any of my simple abilities. I'm just a user, I left the room at Dreamweaver 8.0
Even then, and more-so now, our site is a lumbering behemoth. There are many thousands of unique pages, so many old articles (many still worth preserving, some outdated), thousands of archived reviews, old travelogues, all these are tremendously important to me. Yes, we were always a store too. But shopping wasn't the only activity I was aiming at with this endeavor. I wanted Sweet Maria's to be a lot more because my focus was and is much more: I wanted Sweet Maria's to reflect myself and my interests in coffee, in culture, and in a broadening understanding of both.
Sadly, a lot of people are going to be so frustrated trying to find all that content, or to place an order in a reasonable amount of time, that they aren't going to have the patience to share that vision. It's an overreaction I know, but my feeling the last months has been that Sweet Maria's sucks, because our site sucks, and the site is basically our connection with our audience. That hasn't stopped me from my job sourcing coffee, from traveling, making videos and podcasts etc. But it's been a pall...

Daily sun protection should be a part of any beauty routine. Out of all of the assailants the skin is exposed to on a regular basis, the sun is the most damaging and represents the number one reason for premature aging. jane iredale In Sun solutions offer broad spectrum sun protection products that protect the skin for hours, preventing burning and damage which can lead to wrinkles, loss of elasticity and dark spots. Using jane iredal In Sun products every day will help ensure healthy and youthful looking skin in the future. Many people avoid sunscreen because they do not like the typical heavy and greasy feel and the chemical smells. jane iredale In Sun are unique powder formulas that contain only natural minerals which create a physical barrier between the sun and the skin. This means no greasy feel or unpleasant odor.
The jane iredale In Sun collection also includes self tanners so that you can enjoy a radiant glow without worrying about the dangers of the sun. Self tanners are a great solution for those who just don't want to give up that beautiful tan.
Take the time to incorporate jane iredale In Sun products into your daily routine. Keeping your skin safe from the sun is absolutely critical for beautiful and healthy skin.
Many people report feeling better about themselves when their skin has a little color. Jane Iredale Tantasia Self Tanner is a great alternative to a real sun tan which can wreak havoc on the skin. This self tanning formula is rich in hydrators so it leaves the skin soft and silky. It can be applied to both the face and body for a natural looking glow that builds over the course of several days. Because the color forms slowly, it's easy to control the shade. Some people opt for just a little color while others might desire a richer tan. The results are long lasting and won't wash off in the shower. Unlike many self tanners that have an unpleasant odor, Jane Iredale Tantasia Self Tanner smells nice with the scent of refreshing citrus.
Sun protection can be easy and convenient if you start with the right product. Jane Iredale Powder-Me SPF 30 - Translucent is a lightweight sunscreen powder that offers full protection against both UVA and UVB rays. The product contains natural titanium dioxide which is a non-irritating mineral sunscreen that is actually cooling and soothing on the skin. The formula also contains clays which are very nourishing. The applicator sponge is incredibly easy to use and makes re-applying a snap even when you're on the go.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (WUSA9) -- Twenty longtime homeless men and women in Fairfax County, now have a place to call home.
Mondloch Place, a new facility in Alexandria, is a place where residents in some cases have been plucked out of the woods, off the streets or people's couches, to sign leases and pay rent. Some believe it's the model to end homelessness and possibly much more.
When 62-year-old Terry Taylor lost his job, he was in and out of shelters before he came to Mondloch Place.
"It reminds me of being on my feet again, just what I needed," he says.
In Anthony Payne's case, his alcoholism was so bad it left him in a coma 10 years ago and out in the streets.
"I have a depression problem and I was drinking myself to death. I lived in the woods for a year and a half. I chopped trees to make a fire to keep warm."
The model of Mondloch Place is a new one for Northern Virginia and the vision of Pam Michell, the executive director of New Hope Housing. It's also the largest homeless agency in Northern Virginia.
"People are now able to focus on something else than survival," says Michell.
These men and women, pay 30% of their income, anywhere from $50 to $200 dollars a month for these studio apartments.
Michell adds, "If you are only making 750 a month, where are you going to live? The units are small only 350 square feet nothing fancy."
Payne says his apartment "came with a coffee maker, mason jar, two burner stove. I cook my own meals."
Residents buy their own food. They can receive counseling and resources to find jobs.
"This place means everything to me. I'm not in the streets worried about where I'll lay my head or eat," Payne says. "It's 100% better than the last place. I was going to laundry room to laundry room. You don't want to get caught because you could go to jail for trespassing."
While Mondloch Place celebrates its official opening, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors will be taking up a rezoning issue looking at Mondloch Place as an example of how they can help the rest of the homeless population and people who are getting on their feet -- working a minimum wage job and can't afford the high market price of rent.
Michell, "It's the answer for a certain subset of the populations for singles. It's affordable small."
Sixty-two-year-old Taylor is now gainfully employed.
"I feel now that I have a job I feel better about myself. When I'm ready to make my next move I will. I'm happy," he says.
Payne was overjoyed when he saw the 'welcome home' sign on his door.
"It's like my own home," he says. "It's been a while since I've been able to turn my own key in my own home. Finally have a home."
The facility was paid for by federal and local dollars. New Hope Housing says they serve 300 people a night. As of last January, they say there are roughly 1,350 homeless in Fairfax County.
