WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) -- Why did it take an ambulance nearly twenty minutes to reach an injured police officer?
That question was finally answered Thursday in a report released by the Deputy Mayor for Public Safety and Justice, and the report places the blame on the crews of three ambulances and one supervising officer.
But the presidents of the local police and firefighters union call the report a "joke" for going after lower-level employees instead of management.
Two weeks ago, it took nearly twenty-minutes for an ambulance to respond to a police officer that was hit by a car. That's almost three times the national average. So what took so long? According to the report, "three improperly out of service units (ambulances) failed to properly follow protocol." Medic 19 and Medic 27 had been granted out of service status, but the crews had failed to properly monitor their radios. The third unit, Ambulance 15, failed to ensure that their unit was identified as available for service. The report also blasts a supervision officer.
"We believe that an Emergency Liaison Officer, who serves as the central hub - the quarterback - for operations, failed to act appropriately," said Paul Quander, Deputy Mayor of Public Safety and Justice
Seven people - paramedics, firefighters, and one supervising officer - are now facing disciplinary action. Quander blames the incident on human error, not a system-wide problem. But the president of the local firefighters union disagrees, especially when it comes to Ambulance 15.
Smith blames it on a computer glitch that's been going on for years.
"I think there is a systemic problem with the computer system," said Smith. "It's too easy for units to get lost in the system."
"I don't think it's a problem with the system," counters Quander. "I am unaware of any computer glitches. I'm also unaware of any issues."
In order to keep what happened the night of March 5th from happening again, the report also lists several "remedies" including:
"I think we need more units and more staffing," said Quander.

- multi-infarct dementia, Binswanger type
- subcortical arteriosclerotic encephalopathy, SAE
- subcortical dementia
- subcortical ischemic vascular disease
- vascular dementia, Binswanger type
General Discussion
Binswanger disease is a progressive neurological disorder caused by arteriosclerosis and thromboembolism affecting the blood vessels that supply the white-matter and deep structures of the brain (basal ganglia and thalamus). Most patients experience progressive loss of memory and intellectual abilities (dementia), urinary urgency or incontinence, and an abnormally slow, shuffling, unsteady pattern of walking, usually over a 5-10 year period. Due to their vascular etiology, the symptoms and physical findings associated with Binswanger disease may suddenly worsen due to stroke, stabilize and then improve for a brief time, but the patient's overall condition continues to progress as the blood vessels become increasingly obstructed.

ISIS, HAMAS, Not Extremists or Radical, They are Following Qur'an
Claiming Muhammad or Islam is peaceful is like claiming a toddler has won the Tour de France. No spectator or sports enthusiast would ever take seriously a toddler racing a bike. But, they'd have to take seriously a well-invested and trained adult, especially if the race tore through their town. Groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and ISIS are not extremists.

2XU Sublimated Women's Jersey $0.00
While 2XU understands that aesthetics alone won't get you very far on your ride, it also realizes that form runs a close second to function. Accordingly, it developed a new sublimation process that harmoniously combines the two. And as a result, the the Sublimated Women's Jersey was born.
2XU developed its High Fil Sub fabric just for this jersey. And while its primary focus was placed on refining the sublimation process, moisture management came in at a close second. Starting with the later, this material uses cross-channeled yarns in order to wick moisture away from the skin, transporting it the quick-drying surface of the material. This means that you'll remain cooler and drier during high aerobic activity than you would with a traditional polyester blend. Additionally, given its close-mesh composition, the fabric is also highly breathable. Accordingly, this allows your body to regulate its temperature naturally. Aiding in this, the jersey's full-length front zipper allows you to quickly dump heat and to let air circulate throughout the jersey.
For the sublimation process, 2XU turned to Italy for inspiration. Essentially, the fabric development was forced to coincide with the new sublimation process. As a result, 2XU found a path to the richest and most vibrant colors available on the market today. Even better, because the application method, these colors won't fade or deteriorate.
In terms of fit, the Sublimated jersey features a multi-paneled construction in order to complement the body in motion. In fact, you'll find that 2XU actually constructed the cut of the jersey on a contour, and that the jersey's shape is actually predicated on your body within the cycling position. This way, when you move in and out of the saddle, the jersey will move with you, not against you. And to further this ideology, 2XU incorporated stretch panels at the deltoid and scapula. Additionally, the jersey's raglan sleeve design makes shifting from the hoods to the drops an effortless affair.
The jersey also features a reflective accents in order to enhance your visibility to motorists in low-light conditions. For storage of your ride essentials, the 2XU added three ample rear pockets. 2XU also included an MP3 pouch with eyelets for routing your headphone cord.
The 2XU Sublimated Women's Jersey is available in five sizes from X-Small to X-Large and in the colors Black/charcoal, Northern Lights Blue/spectrum green, and Ultra Violet/prism purple.

Still no win at All American for teen, but he has a title
Trevor Cristiani earned his biggest victory yet by winning the Airport Auto Brokers Late Model Series feature Aug. 20 at Ukiah Speedway.
He set fast time that night and clinched the series championship with two races left. Cristiani, 16, arrived at All American Speedway on Saturday hoping for his first victory at Roseville's one-third-mile track. All American was Cristiani's second home track in 2010, as he raced full time in a driver development program.
"This is my favorite track, especially in a Late Model," Cristiani said.
But Cristiani still has yet to win in Roseville. He nearly won the AABLM's debut race at All American in April, losing the lead in a late shootout after dominating much of the event.
On Saturday night, Cristiani qualified second at 13.497 seconds to Junior Roddy's 13.278. Cristiani also won the dash.
He took the lead on lap 22 in the 75-lap feature, lost it to Jeremy Hopkins, regained it one lap later and was leading on the white-flag lap when a crash put him a lap down and left him fourth at the end. Roddy also was involved in the pileup. Jeremy Doss drove by and won.
Cristiani came up one lap short in Roseville, but he cashed in the week before.
"There are really not words to describe how happy I am to win a championship in my first full season of Late Models," Cristiani said. "I never thought I would clinch it in only 10 races."
Cristiani has accomplished much in his young career, including 15 Outlaw kart championships, scoring his first Modified win at age 14 and earning his first Late Model quick time at 15.
Cristiani dominated the AABLM from the start, beginning with three consecutive runner-up finishes. His first win came in June at Redwood Acres Raceway in Eureka, and he followed with a pole and second-place finish at Ukiah.
In all, Cristiani has tallied eight top-two finishes and three fourth-place efforts.
In other races:
Legends of the Pacific — Doss led for 20 laps before surrendering the top spot to Luis Tyrrell on lap 30. Doss regained the lead on lap 33 and led the final three laps. Tyrrell set fast time at 15.456. James Bickford and Keith Clement won heat races, and Tony Mangini claimed the dash.
WSRA Mini Cup — Tommy McCarthy led the last 23 laps of the 25-lap feature. Bryce Napier set fast time in qualifying at 16.637 seconds, and Andrew Vanderpool won the dash.
NCMA Sprint — No. 1 qualifier David Goodwill (13.636) took the lead on lap 11 and won the 35-lap main. Denny Burrell won the heat and dash.

Late Model Racing - State Of The UnionWritten by on August 20, 2012 Circle Track takes a look at the health of dirt late model racing across the country.
Each year, the President addresses the nation in an effort to keep citizens up to date on the latest key issues and social concerns. As the government and taxpayers have to worry about political issues, sanctioning bodies and races have their own issues to be concerned with. In years past, fan attendance has been up and down, car counts have fluctuated, payouts have dropped, and we've all heard rumors of, or had our local track cease operations due to financial burdens. Fuel has been more expensive than ever, and if you race in a traveling series, simply getting to the track can cost more than winning will pay out. Is this still the case? Or are we past the doom and gloom and on our way back to racing the way it was before the financial bottom fell out a few years ago? We were happy to hear that Dirt Late Model racing as a whole is just about as strong as ever. Granted, some markets are still on a decline, but the majority of the major race sanctions we spoke with have maintained, or in some cases are showing growth. In the next few pages we are going to bring you up to date on the state of Dirt Late Model racing in America. We spent some time with heads of selected major sanctioning bodies to get their take on the ups and down of the sport, as well as past, present, and future of dirt racing.
Carolina Clash Super Late Model SeriesLarry Lee-Series President
If you live in the Carolina's and race, or like Dirt Late Models, then you're probably familiar with the Carolina Clash Super Late Model Series. With 18 events at 8 different tracks across North and South Carolina and Virginia, the Carolina Clash Super Late Model series offers tons of dirt-slinging action. With payouts as high as $10,000, this series attracts some of the best drivers in the Southeast. Larry Lee is the Series President, and we took some time to chat with him about the current state of the Carolina Clash Super Late Model Series. "This year we've had a good turn out," explains Lee. "Car counts have been down about 10 percent, which isn't bad at all. We've had some great racing and the crowds have been good." While reporting only a 10-percent drop in racers over years past can certainly be considered a good thing in uncertain economic times, Lee feels the "entertainment dollar" is stronger than ever. "People are still spending money on entertainment to get a break from the daily grind." He continues, "people go to work all week just try to survive. On the weekends, they want to spend some time with their families and be entertained. "I wouldn't say we are growing, but we are maintaining and holding our own. It gives me a real good feeling because I think the economy is going to come back in the near future, and when it does and things get rejuvenated, it's going to make Dirt Late Model racing much better. We are in a bit of a holding pattern right now, but I feel that we are going to see an upward swing. The future is looking bright!"

Given the numbers, and the mainstream media that covers its races, the LOLMD series is a serious player in the dirt world. We caught up with Series Director, Ritchie Lewis who gave us some insite into how the 2012 season is going. "Overall, we are very healthy," explains Lewis. "We are extremely thankful for that health. We have 46 events on the books for 2012, and we probably could have booked another 40. With our staff and wanting to put on quality races, we're putting on about all we can handle." The series success hasn't come without loss though. "Our car count has struggled a bit," Lewis adds. "The guys out there with open engines and the budgets to race with open tires have suffered with the economy, and that has taken its toll on car counts. There are hot pockets within the country, but car count has taken a bit of a hit. At the same time, the grandstand count is still just as strong, if not stronger than ever."
Lewis explains that part of this has to do with the series' strong network of race promoters. "Our promoter count is up, and our relationship with our promoters is stronger than ever." He continues, "The quality of racing has been extremely good, and I think the track promoters have been putting more and more effort and time into track prep. There are people out there prepping racetracks in a much better manner than 10 years ago. "At the end of the day, the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirst Series is all about having the baddest of the bad. There's still that element of excitement that gets people in their cars or motorhomes to go long distances to watch these guys race. We still want to have the upper teir, USDA prime choice drivers, manufacturers, etc., 'cause there is still something to be said about throwing the green flag on 24 of the baddest Late Models in the country that makes the hair on your arms stand up, and the economy can't affect that!"
IMCABrett Root-Vice President of Operations
"In our Late Model Division, car counts have been pretty consistent," explains Brett Root, Vice president of Operations for IMCA. "It's not our largest division, but where we have sanctions, it's been so consistent over the past 15 years. Our membership in this division has been great. It hasn't fluctuated in years, and we haven't seen any fluctuation now." The International Motor Contest Association (IMCA) was organized in 1915, and is the oldest active automobile racing sanctioning body in the United States. J. Alex Sloan, a native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was instrumental in establishing IMCA and ran more races than all other promoters in the United States combined-all under IMCA sanction. After Sloan's death in 1937, his son John continued the IMCA tradition. Under his leadership, IMCA continued to grow and held its first Late Model race on November 9, 1947 in Lubbock, Texas. In the late 1970's, Keith Knaack introduced the IMCA Modified division. Few knew then that Keith's vision and innovation would result in the largest class of race cars in the country. In 1990, Kathy Root was named president of IMCA and purchased IMCA from Karolyn and Kathryn Knaack in 1996. Using the vision and innovation of Keith Knaack, IMCA is based on enforcing fair and consistent rules that promote affordability as the foundation of racing in America. Through the promotion of the "grassroots" weekly racer, IMCA has continued to see remarkable growth throughout the last decade. Though known as the sanction for the dirt Modifieds, IMCA also offers a home for economical Dirt Late Model racing. "We have cost control measures on the cars, and we've had a spec motor since 1996," Root adds. "This was done to keep the cost of the engines down. We also run on a little narrower tire and a narrower wheel, which relates to a little less expense when it comes to tire budget." IMCA keeps track of the trends it sees among racers. Root explained a little about what they have been observing. "We've seen some patterns where racers are racing a little differently." He continues, "The racers are there and they have the equipment, but we are seeing racers at certain events and at certain racetracks being selective about how much they are racing. "Our philosophy and foundation has been built around trying to control or discourage costs. We try to keep things as reasonably affordable as they can be for racing, and we are going to stay true to that."
Nesmith Dirt Late Model SeriesMike Vaughn-Series Director
If you race a spec or crate Dirt Late Model in the South, you've probably run with the NeSmith Dirt Late Model Series. This spec series puts on 24 events at 12 tracks in 6 states. And if that's not enough, NeSmith also has a weekly series. We sat down with Series Founder and Director Mike Vaughn to hear more about how the NeSmith Dirt Late Model series has persevered in the past few years. "Really and truly, our overall deal has maintained over the past two or three years where a lot of others have dropped off," explains Mike Vaughn. The NeSmith Dirt Late Model Series Director continues, "Being able to maintain has been a positive. A lot of other series are off by as much as 50 percent. We've been able to keep a 40-car car count for our touring shows, and the weekly tracks are actually growing. The affordability of our spec series has kept a lot of people in the game." Marketing has been a huge part of NeSmith's success. Promoting the drivers and the tracks has given the series the ability to beat the economy. "In tough economic times, you have to give people more bang for their dollar. The promoters and drivers have all stepped up their outlets of promoting our drivers and racetracks in the media to try and get them full exposure. Even our weekly guys are put on a national spotlight. That, combined with the affordability has helped us maintain and even grow in these tough economic times." When it comes to spec series, policing the rules can be challenging. Making sure you have the right technical people in place is key to the whole thing working. "When you have a spec series, you have to be willing to police it," Vaughn explains. "We have a great tech department and that's helped our growth. I think the promoters who give [a spec series] a chance see the benefits of it. I can give you a list of tracks where it has saved Late Model racing there."
World Of OutlawsTom Deery-Chief Operating Officer and President
The World of Outlaws Late Model Series (WoO LMS) is another one of the nation's premier traveling Dirt Late Model stock car series-a cousin of the longer-running World of Outlaws series for winged Sprint Cars that was founded by the late Ted Johnson in 1978. The WoO LMS first ran in 1988-1989 under the direction of Johnson, but the series sat dormant until being rekindled in 2004 by the World Racing Group and has grown in each season since then to take its place as one of the most competitive and lucrative tours for Dirt Late Model racers. We caught up with World Racing Group's Chief Operating Officer and President, Tom Deery to discuss the present condition of the World of Outlaw Late Model Series. "We primarily put on special events, and thankfully they still have a high spectator appeal and a purse component that attracts a strong field of participants." Deery adds, "In light of the issues that may or may not be out there, we have been blessed with the way things have been going. On the participant side, overall we have seen growth. We have seen guys step up and intend to, or run the whole series." Beyond the racers, the World Racing Group also pays close attention to the fans. "The attendance at these events has been as good as they've ever been, and in some cases, the best we've ever seen. In my opinion, that bids well for the special and large event series," he adds. "We are so blessed that there are still thousands of Dirt Late Models from coast to coast, and there is still some consistence or commonality in the rules. That has helped us all through the tough times, whether it's a local track, a regional series, or one of the national series."
Wissota AMSOIL Dirt Track SeriesTerry Voeltz-Executive Director
The Wissota Promoters Association was founded in 1981 by eight track promoters in Wisconsin and Minnesota. The intent was to offer uniform rules for the promoters and drivers involved in the Late Model division. The "Wissota region" is recognized nationally as a healthy, stable racing region by industry leaders and as a non-profit organization (all of Wissota's income after operating expenses is paid out to the drivers at the conclusion of each racing season through track and national point funds). Terry Voeltz, Executive Director of Wissota and the AMSOIL Dirt Track Series gave us a look into the sanction's current health. "We cover a six-state area and Canada, we have 55 tracks, and honestly, it depends on where you're at," explains Voeltz. "We have areas that are doing very well and areas that are struggling." Though the series is seeing both sides of coin, it isn't always easy to figure out why one area does better than another. "Sometimes it's surprising to see the areas that do well and ones that don't." Voeltz continues, "You expect one to do well, and they end up struggling. And the ones you think should be weak are doing quite well. It may come down to saturation of tracks in some areas, and it comes down to promoting. Some tracks are really good at promoting and others aren't keeping pace." There's no question that the cost of racing has played a huge part in the success or struggles of tracks and race teams. Between the cost of the cars and travel expenses, running a race team or a track has not been easy. "There's no question in my mind that people are not traveling like they use to," Voeltz explains. "That has to be a direct result of fuel prices and the economy. As a sanction, it's important to keep costs under control. We need to control the cost of these race cars, even if you have to take drastic steps to back them down. The amount of money people are paying for some of these engines and chassis are out of control. There is no way the average person can be competitive." Last year, nearly 3,000 drivers were licensed for competition at Wissota's member tracks. The numbers are strong, and Wissota is healthy. "Overall, the racing has been good and the crowds have been good," says Voeltz.

This essentially logs the admin in as that user without any password.
Our company wants to host and offer Zimbra as a saas product when its GA and so this could be problematic with clients if there is no way to stop it.

A Florida appeals court is tossing out a conviction and life sentence in a Panhandle murder case.
The 1st District Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that Timothy Chavers did not properly waive his rights to an attorney prior to police questioning.
A panel of three judges ordered a new trial in the Okaloosa County case.
Chavers was convicted of shooting 17-year-old Christopher Pitcock during a 2010 drug robbery.
Chavers, who was 17 at the time, was one of several teens convicted in connection with the killing.
In its ruling ordering a new trial the appeals court cites a transcript of Chavers' interview that shows he told police he did not have money for an attorney.
The officer proceeds with the interview after asking Chavers if he understood his rights.

Asia-Pacific is key to air cargo recovery
June 14, 2011
While the International Air Transport Association (IATA) further downgraded its 2011 airline industry profit forecast to $4 billion, Asia-Pacific carriers are expected to earn $2.1 billion—the most profitable of all regions.
But even here, there were some warnings issued by analysts, who note that it is dramatically down from the $10 billion profit that the region achieved in 2010.
Airlines in this region are more exposed than others to cargo markets and fuel price fluctuations, IATA said.
Asia-Pacific airlines carry 40 percent of all air freight volumes, while low labor costs and relatively low hedging means fuel accounts for a bigger proportion of total costs. In addition, the Japanese earthquake and tsunami are expected to dent the region's prospects for the remainder of the year.
However, this will be more than offset by robust growth in both China and India. The continued dynamism of these economies means that Asia-Pacific is the only region where demand increases (6.4 percent) are expected to outpace capacity growth (5.9 percent).
The key risk in this region to this outlook is a weakening of global economic growth. High energy prices will certainly have a slowing impact on economic expansion, economists agree.
IATA said the impact will be mitigated by two factors. First, while high oil prices previously triggered recessions, today's economies (which generate a unit of GDP using just half the energy required in the mid-1970s) are less sensitive. Second, the corporate sector is cash-rich, business confidence is high, and world trade continues to expand at around 9 percent annually.
The International Monetary Fund and others have raised global growth projections, which would indicate a recovery in demand growth to the historical 5.6 percent level for the second half of 2011. IATA's forecast for continued, albeit lower, airline profits despite $110 a barrel oil prices, is dependant on a strong economy to generate sufficient revenues to partially offset higher fuel costs.

Head-to-head: Jelena 3, Serena 3
Last meeting: Miami '08 final (hard), Serena 6-1, 5-7, 6-3
We've reached the final Grand Slam match of the 2008 WTA Tour season and we'll have a fourth different lady baller to join Maria Sharapova, Ana Ivanovic, and Venus Williams as major champions this year. But that's not all: the winner will also move into the WTA penthouse as the top lady baller. Fun, huh?!
Second seeded Jelena Jankovic will be going for her first Grand Slam title when she takes on fourth seed Serena Williams, who will try to tie the legendary Monica Seles with 9 Grand Slams, for the US Open championship.
How they got here: JJ covered the court beautifully in her 6-4, 6-4 defeat of Russian Elena Dementieva chasing down seeming winners and forcing errors - 42 for the Russian against only 22 for JJ - out of the gold medalist. In breezy conditions, ReRe out-steadied Dinara Safina and stomped all over the frustrated Russian 6-2, 6-3.
The last meeting for these lady ballers was in the spring when ReRe defeated the Serb 6-1, 5-7, 6-3 for her fifth title in Miami continuing her 15-match win streak at the time.
Here's what JJ had to say about facing ReRe again:
This year we are 1‑1. I beat her at the Australian Open; she beat me in Miami in three sets. So it will be a tough match. She's a powerful player. She loves to play here at the Open, but so do I. I love being here. I love the atmosphere.ReRe had this to say about the challenge the second seed brings to the court:
I don't know too many people on the tour that can hang in there as much as she can, and it's definitely ‑‑ she's playing well, and she's just going for glory here...Outlook: JJ has shown throughout this fortnight that she will defend all day long forcing her opponents into errors and taking her chances when the ball is short. But she's never been a mental giant on the court and the pressure of appearing in her first major final may rattle the Serb's nerves.
But seriously, this match rests on ReRe's racquet. If she's focused, and no doubt she will be, she has the better overall game - power, movement, groundstrokes, serve - and experience to earn her ninth major championship.
And I believe she will.

GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Triad Adult and Pediatric Medicine, Inc. (TAPM) in Guilford County plans to reopen its recently-closed HealthServe clinic with a new name, new target patient audience and new federal funding.
TAPM announced Wednesday that it received notice on Sept. 13 that it had been designated as a Fully-Funded, Federally-Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and would receive a two-year grant--$758,333 for the first year and $640,000 in the second, with likelihood that it would be considered for continued federal funding after that.
TAPM CEO Brian Ellerby said the goal is to have the clinic open by Jan. 1, at the latest. He reiterated the former HealthServe clinic will not reopen as HealthServe. The new clinic would be in the former HealthServe building but would not serve nearly as many patients as the 20,000 affected by HealthServe's closing.
"The money is specifically to be used to ensure that community residents who reside in public housing or community residents who are homeless have access to primary care. So we will have to use that money to serve those populations, although any of our clinics-medical offices-can be used by any patient type. We will have to make sure that residents who fit those population groupings will have access to care," Ellerby said.
He explained he will be reaching out to leaders in the public housing community and homeless community-including Greensboro Urban Ministry-to figure out a process by which to begin working with the targeted patients. Ellerby said the federal grant will allow TAPM to serve a projected unduplicated number of 2,400 patients. He said the grant money will focus on the Hampton Homes community in Greensboro.
There currently is a rebranding proposal underway to name the clinic Triad Adult and Pediatric Medicine-Family Medicine at Eugene. Ellerby said he will be meeting with TAPM senior managers this week to finalize plans and then will begin advertising to staff the clinic.
Former Guilford County Board of Commissioners chairman Skip Alston claimed in September that TAPM didn't make it clear how badly HealthServe needed county funding before the clinic was forced to close on Aug. 30.
Alston said when the commission stopped funding in 2011, TAPM had indicated it was going to be pursuing federal funding as a Federally Qualified Health Center. Ellerby responded to those claims Wednesday, saying that the commission's logic was misconstrued, because the need for HealthServe funding was a bigger and separate issue that could not be resolved by the federal funding that now has been allocated to the new clinic.
"We were very clear with Mr. Alston at the time-some three years ago-that federal funds could not be used to supplant local funds. We brought in medic experts that met with Mr. Alston...these funds cannot be used to subsidize current operating losses or gains. The county was given the pediatric program and the adult program a combined $3.3 million a year. $758,000 comes nowhere close to $3.3 million a year," Ellerby said.
Ellerby said along with this new federal funding, the Cone Health Foundation has awarded grant funds that will further expand services in Greensboro for both the homeless populations and low-income, uninsured patients.
With regard to the Affordable Care Act's projected impact on the number of uninsured patients in the Triad, Ellerby explained that people with incomes of between zero percent and 130 percent of the federal poverty level will not be covered through the Affordable Care Act.
Ellerby said it was the federal legislation's intent that states would expand their Medicaid services and coverage. Since North Carolina did not expand Medicaid, Ellerby said there will be a significant number of people who will not have health care coverage, and organizations like TAPM will have to generate local support, "if it is the vision of the community that everyone has health care."

A New Low Even For John Mayer...
by Daily Dish
posted Mar 25 2013 7:01AM
She may have just split up with fiancé Jason Trawick in January but Britney Spears has already gotten over her broken heart. Over the weekend she was spotted holding hands with her new boyfriend! They not only took their romance public, but it looks like Britney Spears has already moved on! And it seems like their favorite thing to do, play golf together! That's what they have been spotted doing the most!
This is such exciting news! The
Girl Meets World
pilot just keeps getting better. William Daniels, also known as
Boy Meets World
's Mr. Feeny, is set to reprise his role as Cory and Topanga's beloved former teacher on the upcoming Disney Channel spinoff! It's not clear what his role will be yet, but he was spotted on the set. Rider Strong and Will Friedle -- who played Cory's best friend Shawn Hunter and older brother Eric Matthews were also photographed on set, but my source is telling me that they were just visiting and will not appear in the pilot. Not cool, that has to change ASAP!
Remember the name Jake Davidson? He was the guy whose prom invitation to Kate Upton went viral last week. Well, he may want to start looking for another date. Kate Upton says the video was flattering and she really appreciated it but,
"I'm not sure if I'll be able to go with him or not, due to my schedule. I want to, but I just don't know if I can make it work. But I really appreciated being asked; it made me feel really great!" WHOMP WHOMP!
What would Monday be without a little bit of Kardashian drama? First on their show Kourtney And Kim Take Miami last night Kim Kardashian talks about how ending up on the Worst Dressed List is ruining boyfriend Kanye Wests' "style cred," PLEASE and now an ad showing the Kardashian sisters gagged and stuffed into the trunk of a car with Paris Hilton driving the car has been pulled! The drawing of the ad was put together as a part of a brainstorming initiative by an agency that produces ad campaigns for Ford Figo in India. The tag line: "Leave your worries behind with Figo's extra large boot." But the images caused outrage after they appeared on the Ads of the World website. Ford has apologized for the images.
Some happy news for Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus! Looks like the wedding is still on! Liam Hemsworth was spotted heading over to Miley Cyrus' house and she was spotted over the weekend wearing her engagement ring again! Plus according to People Magazine, "Since Liam returned to L.A., Miley has been in the best mood. They are together, and will continue their wedding plans."
Family members are worried about Amanda Bynes! They are concerned about her odd behavior like tweeting really inappropriate things about wanted people to kill her and wearing cheek studs. Her family is trying to figure out what they can do to help her. Relatives are trying to convince Amanda Bynes to return home to Los Angeles so they can keep a closer eye on her, but she is refusing and remaining in New York. Oh boy…
Lindsay Lohan… I know you're probably thinking NOW what. So let me tell you. First of all, she's scoring a HUGE paycheck before she goes to rehab. She's headed to Brazil this week to make a few appearances to promote a clothing line and Lindsay Lohan will score a six-figure payday for the deal. That's the good news for her. Now here's the bad news. The lockdown rehab that Lindsay Lohan promised to do is right now looking like it's not true. There appears to be no non-jail rehab facilities that will keep patients in against their will anywhere in the U.S. The problem, Lindsay Lohan's actual sentence is 90 days in jail, but the judge said he'd allow her to complete it with lockdown rehab. Sources say the prosecutors believed such a facility was available when they offered the plea deal. On top of that, Lindsay Lohan continues to drink and the rumor is that prosecutors are reevaluating the plea deal to determine what they want to do. She may still go to jail!
People aren't too happy with Rihanna! She left two thousand fans waiting for three and a half hours at a promised appearance that she had at a Chicago school. Rihanna was set to take the stage at Barrington High School after they won first place in the national 'Shine Like A Diamond' contest. The kids started blogging and tweeting their frustration. The tweets said things like "Looks like I'm not the only impatient person!!," wrote one pupil. "#everyoneisleaving." Oh the power of social media. The live video blog showed the children who hadn't walked out having dance contests to while away the time. Rihanna tweeted that she was in traffic… When Rihanna finally showed up, her appearance lasted all of twelve minutes.
There might be an explanation now as to why Katy Perry and John Mayer really called it quits, and if this is true, NOT GOOD. According to People Magazine, John Mayer may have planned the entire relationship and break-up to coincide with his musical comeback, following his much-publicized vocal issues. Basically, he was jealous of Katy Perry's career and used her to stay in the spotlight. Wow, if this is true, new level even for John Mayer!

|Health is not a condition of matter, but of mind
|Written by Justin Newman, medical student
Tales from the road
The past two weeks I have been traveling in South America, mostly in Argentina. One large difference that stands out between South America and my day-to-day life in the States is the different approach to hygiene. This tweaks a certain curiosity in my mind—if the cleanliness is different in this part of the world—how does this change their lifestyles?
In medical school I attended several lectures that attempted to understand allergies, asthma and similar phenomena. Allergies are a relatively new scourge to the human race—they have really only been recognized as a problem by doctors for about 100 years. Likewise, even asthma is a new problem in the grand scheme of things.
One explanation for the massive increase in allergies and asthma attributes this new problem to the changes we have made to the environment around us. Some experts believe as we are cleaning the world around us—with freshly soaped hands at all times, kitchens and bathrooms that are super-sterilized, and with foods that are handled with the most hygienic methods possible—that we do not get exposed to so many different things. The bugs and microbes and fungus and everything nasty the world has to offer us—that we would have normally been exposed to—are now gone. Our immune systems are over-revved and looking for something to do to occupy their time.
The immune system works against foreign intruders essentially like this: the body makes proteins that can recognize every possible type of intruder. When we are young, the body gets exposed to an entire world of things and learns to recognize the bad guys from the good guys—those proteins that recognize the good guys are not produced any more, and the proteins that recognize the bad guys are made in mass quantities. The body then ships these proteins out all over the body.
Allergies occur when the body thinks the good guys are bad guys. Common things, such as rag weed and pollen, are seen by the body as intruders, and the response is exaggerated beyond what the normal response should be.
One of the most commonly accepted explanations for the increase in allergies is that we are creating too clean of a world. By killing all of the microbes and parasites that used to attack our bodies, we have essentially left our immune systems with nothing else to do.
Studies have shown that kids who have grown up on farms, those kids who have a constant exposure to microbes and other so called "nasty things," have less allergies than their counterparts who grew up in more sterile urban environments. Also, children who grow up with multiple pets in the house are less likely to have allergies, suggesting that all of the unseen nastiness that pets put into our lives is actually beneficial.
All of this is not to suggest that you put your toddler in the pig pen to play. However, as I left the grocery store this evening in Buenos Aires, I bought eggs that had never been refrigerated and meat that had never been frozen or even properly cooled. I guarantee you no one in the store had washed their hands since they arrived on the job, and not once have I seen the little clear jugs of hand sanitizer since I left the USA—other than the few bottles hanging from tourists´ backpacks.
And, after all of that, the rate of allergies is likely to be much less in Argentina than in the USA. Just a little food for thought…

The AMSOIL Great American Circle Track Tour, Part EightWritten by on January 24, 2011 From One Extreme To The Other--It's All Good
Our next two stops on the AMSOIL Great American Circle Track Tour took us to extremes. The dirt track located in Crossville, Tennessee, is one of the more out-of-the-way tracks we will visit on our four-year tour, but it does attract dirt racers from around the Nashville area as well as a few asphalt converts. The very next weekend took us to one of the most famous and well attended racetracks in America, from both a team and a spectator standpoint: Eldora Speedway.
Crossville Raceway
Crossville is about 110 miles east of downtown Nashville. It's a small track, meaning it doesn't attract large numbers of racers or fans per se. But it does run a very good show. The track is family owned and the racers are loyal. We even ran into a few former asphalt racers who decided to make the switch to dirt this year. They were lovin' every minute of it.
Our trip to Crossville was a hurried one. We were at Paducah, Kentucky, on Friday night, August 27, and had to get up early and make the 250-mile trek to this track, stopping in Clarksville, Tennessee, to drop off our 28-foot trailer on the way.
When we arrived, we were greeted by the owners, Buddy and Sandy Sheehan. They were both very glad to be chosen to be represented on our Tour, but somewhat confused as to why. Why would Circle Track choose, out of all of the other tracks around the Southeast, to come to little ol' Crossville?
We explained that our goals for the Tour did not only include large purse races, but that we needed to see what the regular Friday/Saturday night tracks were doing and to get a feel for the health of short track racing across America.
As is often the case personally, when I visit racetracks I've never been to before, something magical happens in one way or another. It happened again at this track. It wasn't necessarily the friendly atmosphere, or even the warm welcome we received from the people who ran the track and the racers, it was in the competition.
In one of the four-cylinder classes, the feature became a classic battle between two cars for the win. All during the race, they changed the lead, they worked lapped traffic, and time and time again each would come back from multiple car lengths back to retake the lead. It was honestly one of the very best races I've ever seen.
But that was just a prelude to a very interesting and telling race in the Late Model division. There was a fairly large contingent of teams in this class and as usual there were a few top teams who, rumors had it, were the ones to beat.
Each of the top two competitors had big-dollar built motors, but at this track, crate motor cars were allowed, with a weight break, to run with the built motors. Qualifying proved out the rumors as the two built motor cars qualified first and second. The third fastest time, interestingly enough, was a crate motor car.
In the heat races, each of these three cars won. Now it was time for the showdown. The A-main featured two separate races with a roll of the dice to determine the invert for the second race. Chris Wilson, in the third-qualifying crate motor car won both. It was how he did it that was interesting.
I watched as he circled the track, entering the corner smoothly and straight ahead almost as if braking, then running the middle groove again straight ahead, and then motoring off the corners with barely a wiggle. The other cars, especially the top two qualifiers, were entering the corners at full speed, throwing the car sideways, running the top groove, and using a small cushion up there, and watching as Wilson ran off with the show.
The track has Victory Lane setup outside Turn 2 after the race and I had a talk with Wilson after all of the photos had been taken. I asked, "Where did you learn to drive like that?" He explained that he had run on asphalt tracks the past seven years or so and this was his first year on dirt. He said he didn't know any other way to drive. I said, "Well, don't change a thing."
It was interesting to me that in all of the time I've spent at dirt tracks and watching the cars, as well as suggestions I give in articles in CT, that I have always advocated this style of driving. I had explained in past writings that when I raced Karts on a very good dirt track in central Florida, I drove in straight, braking as much as I could, then drove straight off and I won a bunch of races. I never understood why racers in stock cars couldn't drive like that.
Then I noticed Billy Moyer's and Scott Bloomquist's driving styles in the mid to late '90s and concluded that not only could it be done, but it could be done in a very successful way. We now see more and more drivers using that style and most times it's successful. In this case, our driver with less horsepower, was able to beat a couple of better-funded programs. That is a victory inside of a victory.
And so I learned something valuable that I hope you take into account with your program. It's not always possible to drive your dirt car like an asphalt car, but the more moisture, the more banking the track has, and when the track has no berm to drive off of, driving more straight ahead into, through the middle, and off the corner, the lower your lap times will be. And the fewer mistakes you'll make, which adds up to much better finishes.
We'd put quite a few miles on the ol' motorhome by now, and were getting worn out. So, we had pre-planned a mid-tour break renting a cabin in Townsend, North Carolina, near the Great Smokey Mountains National Park for a few days. We made numerous trips up into the park in our Jeep Wrangler with the top and the doors removed and the weather turning cooler. It was a refreshing change from a very hot and humid trip so far.
Once we had recuperated, it was off to the north and a 400-plus-mile trip to Eldora. But before we left the great state of Tennessee, we did a quick trip up the road to Bowling Green, Kentucky, to see the folks at Holley Performance Products. In last month's issue, editor Rob explained some of the new technology these folks are working on.
Eldora Speedway
I had been to Eldora before and for our readers who have been with us for a while, you might remember we wrote a report on a test we did in March, 1998. I attended both the Dream and the World 100 that year and I have been back to this race a few more times since then.
Our thanks go out to the track management, especially Larry Boos, for getting us set up along the midway section where we were able to meet and greet many of our readers and fans. In fact, at the annual Thursday night concert, our bus served as the backdrop for the event with the band playing and crowd having lots of fun all around us.
The facilities were in great shape too. Much has been added to the speedway since Tony Stewart took over ownership in 2004. Lots of new concrete has been added, suites have been built outside Turns 3 and 4 and the event is as well run and organized as any time in the past.
It always amazed me how well organized everything was over the years and it was a tribute to the founder of Eldora, Earl Baltes. He built the track in 1954 and had owned and operated it till Stewart took over. That anyone could pull off a race where, in past years, more than 240 teams came to race for 28 starting positions, is a wonder of promoting.
This year we saw upwards of 160 teams show up for the $43,000 purse. Usually at these big money races, we see teams that just show up well prepared and fast. These are normally the teams that have done well in the past including drivers like Bloomquist, Moyer, and Donnie Moran-all multiple winners of this event.
We had been keeping an eye on Moyer in our last installment where we had seen him winning a large amount of money and more than 21 races so far this year. After all, he had won the Dream here in June, so it was expected that he would do well.
It wasn't to be easy for Moyer. He placed ninth in his heat race and had to race his way into the A-main from B-main #1, starting on the pole and finishing Second. This put him starting 23rd on the grid with a long way to go to the front.
Heavy fog rolled in by the time the race started and from my vantage point between Turns 3 and 4, I couldn't see much of the progression of the race. But I spoke with several observers who filled me in on how Moyer got it done. He ran the track through the middle and bottom grooves, kept his momentum up and he put it on whoever was in front of him until he no longer had anyone else to pass.
By lap 29, he was racing side-by-side with Bloomquist for sixth. On lap 51 he took second place from Don O'Neal. He took the lead on lap 66 and never looked back completing his second sweep of the Dream and the World 100. And he did it in much the same fashion using his signature driving style. And like the kid from Crossville Raceway, he drove mostly straight ahead, keeping his momentum up.
The rest of the story is that Moyer went on to sweep the three races at the Knoxville Nationals on September 30, and October 1 and 2, for two $7,000 payouts and the final race for $40,000 for a yearly total for wins alone of $324,000. Why do I impress this on you so strongly? Because success is the only measure we should, and ultimately do, use in racing.
The work Moyer has put into his cars as to front end geometry by his own admissions in interviews we have seen, the setups he chooses, and the way he drives the car all point to superior methodology using the one true measure-success.
So, if you are faced with decisions related to how you set up, design, and race your car, look to those who have been successful, learn the areas where they concentrate their efforts, and do the same. That is our message this time around from the Tour.
Next Up Next we head for the big state of Texas and the dirt track at Texas Motor Speedway just up the road from Dallas. From there, we conclude this portion of our AMSOIL Great American Circle Track Tour with a visit to Columbus Motor Speedway located in Columbus, Mississippi.

Dewayne Ragland, the field rep for All Star Performance products, and driver Kevin Weaver discuss current events before qualifying at Eldora. Ragland is a longtime friend of mine who is probably the one person I can go to and get the honest low down on current technical trends in the top ranks of Dirt Late Model racing in America. He is well respected among all of the top teams. Weaver is an Indiana driver who has visited this event many times over the years. He finished Second to Moyer in the '98 World 100 and was our test pilot in March of that year in a published test here.The media was chosen to select the best appearing car. This is an annual event whereby teams create special designs for their cars for this race. My pick was this interesting design by Don O'Neal where the cards spell out his name. It was one good looking car.The Brave The Shave event wasn't just for the drivers, some of the fans participated too and 12-year-old Andrew Short sports his shave on the midway. This is proof positive that the drivers can influence the youngsters with their actions, be they good or bad. In this case, and I think this reflects the general population of racers, the rub-off was all good.

A World-Class Custom Show & Swap Meet - The 38th Annual Turkey RunWritten by on April 4, 2012
If you've never been to Florida's famous Turkey Run, it might be time for a new addition to your bucket list. This four-day event is not only a Florida favorite, it is also the largest automotive event in the state, and one of the largest shows of its kind in the country. The emphasis has always been on fun with no classes, no judges, no trophies, and no stress. Pull in, park, and enjoy. This year more than 125,000 spectators delighted in the all-fun atmosphere, checking out a staggering collection of 4,859 vehicles. Vehicles started rolling in early on Thanksgiving day and stayed until Sunday afternoon, creating a rainbow of colors on the Daytona Speedway infield. Spectators from around the state, around the country, and around the world marveled at the collection of vehicles that encompassed every automotive type. Street rods, hot rods, pickups, customs, antiques, Pro Streets, restored originals, kit cars, concept cars and more, made arriving at each new row an exciting moment. But the almost 5,000 vehicles were only part of the story.
The Turkey Run is also famous for its huge collection of vendors and all 3,000 swap meet spaces were quickly sold out. That meant whatever you needed for your restoration project back in the garage was not only on hand, it was probably available in colors. The Car Corral also sold out with all 1,500 spaces gone by Friday. Lots of vehicles changed hands over the weekend with buyers driving in with the old family ride and driving home with something new. Adding even more to the fun is the Friday and Saturday afternoon door prize giveaways with thousands of dollars worth of prizes going home with new owners. The annual raffle car is also a tradition. Everyone always buys a ticket or two in the hope of winning the car but also because they realize that the host club, the Daytona Beach Street Rods, donates a substantial portion of the profits from the event to Volusia County charities, a tradition that they began back in 1974. Almost $300,000 has been donated in just the last seven years. In addition to the excitement during the day, nighttime activities just outside of Turn Four continued the fun with music, food, slow drags, tricycle races, a car teeter-totter, and more.
If you should find yourself in the Southeast next Thanksgiving weekend, stop by to see a great collection of vehicles and probably to meet several old friends while you're there. For more information on both shows, check out the website, www.turkeyrun.com. CT

The Car Corral is a great place to trade in the current family ride and drive home with a new treasure. All 1,500 spaces were sold out and lots of vehicles changed hands over the weekend.There were more than 3,000 vendor spaces and they were all sold out, meaning you could find virtually any automotive item at the Turkey Run.Every year, the host club, the Daytona Beach Street Rods, raffles off a vehicle to help support their charitable donations throughout the year. This year it was a Viper Red '64 Oldsmobile 4-4-2, equipped with a 330 cid V-8, automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and more.Many vendors realize the magnetic attraction of a classic truck, adding them to their booths to attract your attention. It works!We can tell that owner Tom Pinder from Ruskin, Florida, is not afraid of a bold color choice just by looking at his custom '48 Chevy.One of the higher horsepower rides at the event was Jerry Barry's chopped and suicided S-10, running a supercharged, dual quad, big-block.One of the most eye-catching rides at the show was this '41 Ford pickup, owned by Gilles Bouchard from Quebec, Canada. The peach and green cruiser was equipped with his and hers bicycles plus a cooler on the back for essentials.From Trappe, Maryland, Richard Morrel displayed his highly-modified, bright green '31 Chevy pickup, complete with painted-to-match wheels and beautifully polished oak bed.
This flamed '53 Ford owned by Bill and Lynn Mabry, features a shaved body, tilt forward hood, custom bed, and late-model powerplant. It also proudly displays the 2011 Power Tour decal meaning that it is more than just another pretty faceWith probably the most distinctive grille on any early Ford, this bright yellow '38 resto ride rolls on wide whites and boasts a modern powertrain.Driving in from St. Paul, Virginia, Ron David displayed his '48 Ford and Joe Reed showed off his '72 Chevy. Yes, it was a long drive but the Turkey Run was worth it.Smooth on the outside but potent underneath, this '53 Ford pickup is an eight-year father and son project done by Benny and Beau Stevenson. Underhood is a 460 Lincoln V-8, bored out to 557 cid and capable of nearly 800 hp!Bob and Dave Gilliam have created several father and son projects and this fl at black, fl amed '57 Chevy is a good example.Juan Ibarra's '48 GMC has been completely reworked with a Camaro sub frame, 350 Chevy V-8, and 350 Turbo automatic. The air bag suspension gives the driver adjustable altitude at the touch of a button with all the mechanics visible underneath the hinged wood bed.Lots of great looking trucks were on hand but unfortunately, many did not fill out their window cards.

Muffler with Perforates
Application ID: 1843
Reflective mufflers are best suited for the low frequency range where only plane waves can propagate in the system, while dissipative mufflers with fibers are efficient in the mid-to-high frequency range. Dissipative mufflers based on flow losses, on the other hand, work also at low frequencies.
A typical automotive exhaust system is a hybrid construction consisting of a combination of reflective and dissipative muffler elements. The reflective parts are normally tuned to remove dominating low-frequency engine harmonics while the dissipative parts are designed to take care of higher-frequency noise.
The muffler analyzed in this model, is an example of a complex hybrid muffler in which the dissipative element is created completely by flow through perforated pipes and plates.

Hi! I searched the forums and the wiki, and did not find a correct answer.
So, I want all users to use the Carbon theme. But most of them changed their default theme. Then, how is the correct command (or sequence of commands) via terminal to reset all users theme to the one I want them to use by default?
Also, it's possible to hide some side bar options in administration Console (The Default COS for example) so only the main administrator can see?
Thank you!

Questions asked about Hello Kitty's origins; the return of Otto von Bismarck's voice; and, the backwards talking girl…
• Questions are apparently being asked about the citizenship of iconic cat cutie Hello Kitty following the publication of a new book, Hello Kitty's Guide to Japan in English and Japanese. According to the official biography published by Sanrio, the company that owns the rights to her, Hello Kitty (real name Kitty White) was born in London. But, according to some, Kitty is so knowledgable about Japan in the new guide, which was reportedly authorised by Sanrio, that "the reader can only surmise she is either Japanese or an amazingly bilingual Japanese studies scholar". The catfight has raised the ire of many in Japan and elsewhere and sparked countless internet debates but so far there's been no official clarification forthcoming. Stay tuned.
• The voice of former German Chancellor Otto von Bismarck has been heard for the first time in 100 years in a series of remarkable recordings digitally restored by the Thomas Edison National Park museum in the US. The recordings, in which Bismarck can be heard reciting parts of songs and poetry in English, Latin, French, and German - including France's national anthem, La Marseillaise - and advising his son Herbert to "live life in moderation", was made in 1889 using a wax cylinder phonograph. Discovered in 1957, research on the recordings did not reportedly start until 2005.
• Being able to say words backwards is quite a remarkable feat yet Alyssa, a girl from Oklahoma in the US seems to be able to do so with little effort. In a video clip posted on YouTube which has, yes, gone viral around the globe, Alyssa is seen repeating backwards any word that's thrown at her. You can see the video here.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration says it's taking the first step toward making future cars and light trucks less likely to crash.
The White House is asking the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin drafting rules to require anti-crash technology in new vehicles.
The technology will let cars warn each other of potential danger in time to avoid collisions.
Cars and light trucks will come equipped with a radio signal that will continually transmit a vehicle's position, direction, speed and other information. Other cars with similar equipment will receive the same data — and computers will alert drivers to the possibility of a collision.
A NHTSA report says the technology could prevent as many as 592,000 left-turn and intersection crashes a year — saving 1,083 lives in the process.

Damn it! My garage is full of sand paper too! I didn't realize that I could sand that metal. That does make sense though. ace - Does he start off with 600 or 800 grit paper? And does he use any kind of lubricant like water or detailing spray? I was going to repaint jugs, heads and case Metallic Black next weekend, but now I might give one more shot at shining up the covers first...... Awww, screw it. I'm ready to start painting this thing!

Since multiple HD DVRs here and HD receivers simply don't have any significant impact or issues as you described for the end user experience in this household...and only a fraction of time is spent "directing" our HDTVs for scheduling and programming guide use...it's unfortunate your older device seem to have a problem.
That's not the case with HR24's or newer, which you referenced as well. As others have repeatedly point out...running jet fuel in an older car doesn't usually make it run faster. The same holds true for firmware.
Using that logic makes your HR24 start locking up around 10 days after a reboot just like mine does!
You can't have it both ways!
