I must admit that I have a serious issue when it comes to holding off on these young vintages of good Bordeaux. It's by far my favorite region for red wine and I'm addicted to the stuff!
Recently I came across a great article about the science of aging wine. It talks about the history of aging wine and about the general chemistry behind this practice. If you've ever wondered exactly why it is that some wine greatly improves over time (provided it's stored in the right conditions) then this article will break it down for you.
This Columbia Valley red blend had such a cool label that I thought I would purchase it at my local wine shop. Oh, and if you're not shopping at your local mom & pop wine shop shame on you!
I decided to dig into my wine closet for a bottle from Paso Robles, and even though I was planning on saving this bottle, I'm going to drink it and review it. It's been over six months since I last reviewed any wine from Paso and I think this wine will be a positive awakening!
I've been working on a new project and I finally have it up and running. I've launched a new Napa Valley wine blog focused strictly on providing information about California's most famous wine region.
I truly wish I could be locked away in utter seclusion and have the chance to taste every vintage of wine from estates such as this. The history of the vineyard site alone is practically enough to write a thesis on the development of terroir, the perfection of clonal selection, and vineyard management.
Recently I had the opportunity to interview and brand new wine club owner and talk to him about what defines his club and how he plans to make it a successful venture.
By now we've all heard the reports about Chile's devastating 8.8-magnitude earthquake. It was somewhat of a shock to me that another natural disaster would follow so closely after what had happened in Haiti. Hopefully the world will respond in a similar fashion and help in the aid and recovery of Chile. (Although I doubt it because now it's not the dog and pony show)
I remember tasting a Londer Pinot Noir several years ago and really enjoying it, although I'm not sure if it was the Estate Pinot or not. Anyways, I'm excited to taste this wine because it's been a little while since I've tasted anything from the Anderson Valley.
The Tualatin Estate Vineyard is a 145 acre vineyard located in the foothills of Oregon's coastal mountain range. It was established in 1973 and is among the oldest and most widely respected vineyard sites in Willamette Valley. The soils are mostly Laurelwood which is unique to Oregon and was formed over thousands of years ago by glacial silt called "loess".

Item # MAV0448
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Clincher Wheels in stock than that.View Similar Products
Mavic R-Sys Road Wheelset - Clincher $0.00
Mavic lived up to its iconic name by building quality, durable, high-performance wheels. The latest iteration of the R-Sys Clincher Wheelset is the lightest and stiffest yet. Built to climb effortlessly, descend confidently and handle the roughest tarmac fathomable, the R-Sys wheelset will impress you at every turn.
The most notable aspect of the R-Sys Wheels is the varied rim depth between the front and rear rim. The front rim on the R-Sys is only 22mm deep, essentially the same depth as an Open Pro rim. This makes it lighter, and it has the incidental advantage of being a more stable wheel in crosswinds and at high speeds on descents. The rear rim depth on the R-Sys is 25mm. The reasoning behind this is that it gives the rear wheel added rigidity and resistance to flex, which, according to Mavic, gives it superior power transfer. The R-Sys Wheelset also features aggressive Inter Spoke Milling (ISM) on the Maxtal aluminum rim. Mavic uses this technique to trim away the excess aluminum between the spoke threads and sidewalls. This removal of excess material shaves weight without affecting rigidity or strength.
The R-Sys hubs are machined from a single piece of aluminum and feature slightly oversized aluminum axles for increased lateral stiffness. The hubs are also equipped with Mavic's QRM+ bearings that are double-sealed for longevity, and each hub allows for micro-fine preload adjustment.
The aesthetically appealing tubular carbon fiber TraComp spokes distinguish the R-Sys group from the rest of the Mavic line. Their design is noteworthy in that they work in both tension and compression, a quality that gives the R-Sys wheelset unmatched lateral stability. Real-world translation: you'll descend with confidence and increased speed. The front wheel uses 16 of these carbon spokes while the rear has 10 on the non-drive side. They're too large to be used on the rear drive-side; 10 bladed Zicral aluminum spokes go here instead. Using this few spokes means a very light wheel. Lighter, in fact, than many carbon-fiber wheels designed for sew-ups.
The R-Sys' Maxtal rims are wrapped with Yksion Pro Griplink/Powerlink tires. The Powerlink rear tire uses two different rubber compounds to reduce rolling resistance and increase energy transfer while still maintaining superior cornering traction. The center strip of the tread uses harder, 70a durometer rubber. This gives the Powerlink the hard wearing and fast rolling characteristics that Mavic intended. However, since safety and great performance depends on a good cornering grip, the rubber on the shoulders is a softer, grippier, 60a durometer. The front wheel of the R-Sys comes equipped with the GripLink tire. GripLink was designed to keep your front wheel glued to the tarmac when you lay your bike into a sweeping high-speed corner. Both tires have a 127 TPI.
The Mavic R-Sys Wheelset is delivered with everything you need to maintain your investment. The package includes a wheel bag, BR601 quick releases, computer magnet for the front wheel, multifunctional adjustment wrench, Tracomp ring tool, and a user guide. They're available with either a Campagnolo or Shimano/SRAM compatible freehub body.

Great climber!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is an awesome set of wheels. Very light weight and stiff with nice cornering properties. I like the carbon spokes and the tires are actually good quality as well. the hubs are nice and smooth as well and the wheels look great mounted on your bike. Mavic has superb wheels and I am a life long customer.

Congested skin is skin that is troubled by blackheads and pores that are obstructed by dead skin cells and an oily substance called sebum.
Congested skin needs gentle cleansing twice a day with a mild cleanser. Products that contains AHA or a beta-hydroxy acid like salicylic acid works well on clogged pores. Always check with your dermatologist.
Healthy skin looks clear and translucent with a faint glow. The texture is smooth and even without areas of roughness or unevenness. On the other hand, some people have congested skin - skin that's troubled by clogged pores and blackheads. This can be a frustrating problem, but, fortunately, there are ways to help open up pores that are clogged so that skin looks and feels smoother and more even in texture.
There are glands in the skin called sebaceous glands that produce a sticky substance called sebum. Sebum has the function of lubricating and protecting skin from infection. Hormonal fluctuations, especially an increase in hormones called androgens, stimulate sebum production. If too much sebum is produced, it can stick to dead skin cells within follicles and cause the opening called the pore to become blocked.
Sometimes clogged, congested pores become blackheads. Blackheads are simply follicles filled with dead skin cells and sebum. They look black because a chemical reaction that happens with exposure to oxygen. Clogged pores can also become whiteheads. Unlike blackheads, whiteheads lack the black because they're closed off from the surface of the skin so that it is never exposed to the air. Clogged pores, blackheads and whiteheads can develop into bumps and pimples if bacteria feed on the dead skin cells and sebum and inflammation sets in.
Genetics play a role in who gets clogged pores and congested skin, and hormones are also a factor. Blocked pores are more common during puberty when hormone levels are rapidly changing. Sometimes they also reappear during late adulthood when the rate of skin cell renewal slows, and dead skin cells build up leading to blocked pores. Some cosmetic products also contain ingredients that can clog pores.
Congested skin needs gentle cleansing twice a day with a mild cleanser. A products that contains glycolic acid or a beta-hydroxy acid like salicylic acid works well on clogged pores. These weak acids encourage sloughing of superficial skin cells that block pores. Use warm, not hot water along your hands or a soft washcloth to massage the cleanser around on your skin. You can also use an electronic cleansing brush which controls the pressure so that you don't over do it. Vigorous scrubbing may stimulate more sebum production. It may also be helpful to use a cleanser with buffing beads several times a week to gently exfoliate dead surface skin cells.
You can also apply treatment products that contain alpha hydroxy or beta hydroxy acids. Many products contain both acids in combination. This works well for clearing out pores while also refining the skin's surface.
Cosmetics can contribute to the problem of congested pores. Choose products that are oil-free and non-comedogenic. Wear a sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun's damaging rays, but make sure it contains no pore-clogging ingredients. Avoid picking at blackheads and white heads.
Dermatologists sometimes prescribe topical retinoids like Retin-A to treat pores that are blocked. It works well for this purpose, but many people find retinoids to be too irritating. They typically cause skin redness and sensitivity, especially when you first start using them. Products containing salicylic acid usually work well and cause less skin irritation.
Some dermatologists also recommend a series of chemicals peels using alpha-hydroxy or beta-hydroxy acids like salicylic acid to treat problem skin with clogged pores, blackheads and whiteheads. Salicylic acid peels work best because they're better able to penetrate into the clogged follicle. This can be an effective treatment, although it will take several visits to see results.
Congested skin is a common problem that can usually be managed with proper cleansing and products containing salicylic acid. It also helps to avoid using products that aren't oil-free and non-comedogenic. In more severe cases that don't respond, retinoids or a series of chemical peels are an option.

I know people don't like me linking to Kotaku, but there's an interesting post there about a 'Four in February' initiative. Here's the page link
In short, the idea behind 'Four in February' is to finish four games in February.
...and that's it.
It's basically just a simple drive to get people to finish four games they've been meaning to get round to. No actual rules, just pick four games and do your damnedest to finish them all.
I've already picked my four, so I'll list 'em here.
- Halo: Combat Evolved - Anniversary Edition (XBox 360 - never got past the Library in the original version, so it'll be interesting to see if I can do it this time)
- Fable: The Lost Chapters (on Steam, since I picked it up and promptly did nothing with it)
- Ratchet & Clank 3 (from the PS3 trilogy - despite finishing the PS2 version I never got round to the PS3 one despite it being the best of the trilogy)
- Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Steam again. HATED this game first time round, but I want to see how hilariously bad the story is).
And if I finish all four, I'll celebrate by playing The Force Unleashed II. *shudder*
So yeah, that's Four in February. Anyone else feel like joining in?

Hard Graft: You Lose What You Don't Hold
Store Profile
- Location: online only
- Specialty: Handcrafted gadget cases made of leather and felted wool
- Price range: ($$$) High-End
- Website: hardgraft.com
Store History
- Founded: 2006
- Founded by: monie.ka & James
- Headquarters: Austria
monie.ka and James didn't really have a plan when they started their company back in 2006. But in 2007, when they put their first laptop sleeve up for sale online, and someone from the US bought it, the momentum from that first sale told them that they were onto something. They quit their jobs in advertising and fashion, re-invested the money from their sale into production of the next, and so on. For three years they have personally handmade each piece themselves. Eventually, after months of searching, they found craftsmen in Italy and Austria to help them with production. However, they still pack every order in-house – saying, "it's honest, direct and 100% hands on."
Hard graft is an old English term meaning real hard work. It's a term that describes both the amount of effort put into the company by founders monie.ka and James, and what you can expect to get out of each one of their suberbly crafted products.
English and Austrian, the designers behind Hard Graft are intensely passionate about what they do. They started their company small, have grown organically, and have selected a team of meticulous craftsman in Italy and Austria to help them produce pieces that are, "honest, direct and 100% hands on." Using naturally-milled Italian leather, premium Italian suede, and 100% wool felt, monie.ka and James have created a line of gadget cases, travel bags and wallets that not only look good, but have been intuitievely designed to be the most useful piece of their type that you'll ever own. Are they pricey? Yes. But this is one of those times when the old adage "you get what you pay for" truly applies.
Currently, Hard Graft products are only available online. Although, the company soon plans to make them available at select outlets worldwide.

|Five area co-ops join hands to celebrate
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Community invited to cooperative breakfast Saturday
Demonstrating the cooperative spirit to which each adheres, five area co-ops are joining forces to put on a breakfast in honor of the International Year of Cooperatives.
Saturday, Oct. 27 from 7-10 a.m. at the Biesemeier Room in the Event Center at the Phillips County Fairgrounds, a free breakfast will be served to community members.
Sponsoring the cooperative venture are Grainland Co-op, Highline Electric Association, PC Telcom, Holyoke Community Federal Credit Union and Paoli Farmers Co-op.
Encouraging the community to attend, the sponsoring co-ops will be awarding two big prizes to lucky drawing winners. One person will win a Samsung 32-inch LCD HDTV flat screen, and second prize is a blue ray DVD player.
"Cooperatives are a reminder to the international community that it is possible to pursue both economic viability and social responsibility," said Ben Ki-moon, United Nations Secretary General.
October is celebrated as National Cooperative Month each year.
In 2009, the United Nations decided that 2012 would be the International Year of Cooperatives (IYC). As the world's leading proponent of the cooperative movement, the International Cooperative Alliance (ICA) is deeply involved in promoting this UN International Year.
IYC celebrates a different way of doing business—one focused on human need, not human greed, where the members (who own and govern the business) collectively enjoy the benefits, instead of all profits going just to shareholders.
Having an International Year of Cooperatives provides an opportunity to captivate the attention of national governments, the business community and, most importantly, the general public on the advantages provided by the cooperative model.
The theme for the International Year is "Cooperative Enterprises Build a Better World."
By specifying a theme for an international year, the UN draws attention to issues of global significance. This theme was chosen for 2012 in part because cooperation is clearly part of what the UN is all about.
The United Nations' goals for the International Year of Cooperatives are to:
—increase public awareness about cooperatives and their contributions to socio-economic development and the achievement of the millennium development goals.
—promote the formation and growth of cooperatives.
—encourage governments to establish policies, laws and regulations conducive to the formation, growth and stability of cooperatives.
As the global voice of cooperatives, ICA has chosen to focus on increasing public awareness during the IYC as the most efficient and effective way to use its resources.
Cooperatives are owned by their members—the people who receive services from them—and are found in many industries.
The cooperative movement traces its roots to a store started by weavers in the town of Rochdale, England in 1844. The Rochdale model revolved around a set of guidelines drawn up by one of its members, Charles Howarth.
When introduced into the United States by the National Grange in 1874, these Rochdale Principles fueled a cooperative explosion.
Although stated in many ways, the seven Rochdale Principles hold that a cooperative must provide:
—voluntary and open membership.
—democratic member control.
—members' economic participation.
—autonomy and independence.
—education, training and information.
—cooperation among cooperatives.
—concern for community.

Rafael Nadal returned to training with a light practice today in Manacor after being sidelined with tendinitis in his knees. His first tourney is scheduled to be the Montreal Masters which begins on August 8th...tick tock tick tock Rafanatics.
On a side note, the ATP's numbers nerd Greg Sharko contemplates in his "Shark Bites" column the possibility of Andy Murray eventually breaking the almost 4-year stranglehold Fedal has had on the top two ranking spots by the end of the U.S. Open.
Even Rafa isn't feeling so great about the rest of his season after coming back from about a month away, though he's probably being cautious by playing his chances down more than anything else.
Via TENNIS' ticker:
What's left of the season is going to be difficult," he said. "After stopping for a month -- almost two -- you lose your rhythm while others carry on competing."Now, what was I saying about Muzz's chances way back when?

Vodka Distilled – Literary Monday
Tony Abou-Ganim, one of America's elder statesmen of mixology, recently released Vodka Distilled, a masterpiece on the subject of Vodka. Vodka is America's most consumed spirit but is largely on the outs with the cocktail crowd. Mr. Abou-Ganim thinks that this is an unfortunate state of affairs, and I happen to agree with him.

AG053: Game Winning Assist
this wiki
Hello Chief, how are you doing? I'm behind you. is the 13th episode of Pokémon: Advanced Challenge.
Episode Plot
The gang is running away from Slugma. They are angry when May's Skitty attacked them which got herself out of Poké Ball. Slugma use Flamethrower, so the gang needs to get out fast. Ash sees a crack in the wall, so Pikachu uses Iron Tail to destroy the rock wall and go out. However, the gang begins to run due to narrow terrain. Everybody stands up and Skitty goes to play with a Pokémon - a Numel. Skitty tries to wake it up, despite making May angry (which got all of them chased by Slugma) and continues to annoy. May calls Skitty back, amazing the gang that Numel did not wake up yet.
Numel wakes up and goes to eat berries. A woman searches for Numel, so Brock is going with his flirting routine. The woman addresses herself as Julie, so gang introduces themselves as well. Numel runs away to eat more berries. Furret stops Numel, so Numel comes back to Julie. Julie predicts that the gang is going to Lavaride Town, since travelers that go through the Fiery Path usually encounter Slugma then end up near Julie's house. Julie offers them to stay in her home for the night and she'll make them some food, but Brock proposes that he'll cook, to which everyone supports him.
Numel go back in the field, so Team Rocket spies. James says that he had Numel to keep him warm. Jessie is amused, so she will catch the Numel, which James and Meowth agrees as well. Julie gives the Numel berries. Max and Brock offer help to feed the Numel. May challenges Ash to battle, wanting Skitty to taste a real battle. Julie wants to battle May, saying she does not get many battles. May sends Skitty, while Julie her Furret. Skitty follows Furret, but when Furret stops moving, Skitty falls down. Skitty attacks with Tackle, but Furret evades, so Skitty uses DoubleSlap.
Furret evades the attacks, tiring Skitty. May checks the Pokédex and orders Skitty to use Assist. However, Skitty uses Ember, but Furret dodges the attack anyway. Skitty uses Assist, so the attack is Silver Wind, but Furret evades. Furret attacks Skitty with Slam, defeating her. Julie says that Skitty was able to use Beautifly's and Torchic attacks. Pikachu and Skitty are shown to eat food. Julie mentions that she was a Coordinator and says that May's Skitty will be useful for Contests. Max and Brock have made dinner.
Team Rocket is going to steal Numel in a Numel-like machine, so they steal one by one. Furret and Pikachu wake up, warning everyone that something's wrong - Team Rocket is stealing Numel. Everyone gets out, so Team Rocket recites their motto. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but fails as the machine is electric proof. Skitty goes after the Numel machine, but May grabs her and is pushed on the mechanical arms. The Numel machine jumps and the arms (with May and Skitty on them) go back into the machine.
Brock and Ash promise Max to get them back. They go inside Julie's truck to go after Team Rocket. May tries to wake Numel up, but fails, so Skitty uses Tackle to destroy the wall. Skitty bounces and falls to a Numel, waking it up. Numel wakes others up as well. Team Rocket plans what will they do, but hear Numel bashing the wall. May tries to wake the last Numel, but when Team Rocket see the Numel attacking, they spray water to calm Numel down. The last Numel wakes up.
The gang tracks the machine and speeds up. The Numel tackles the wall, but falls asleep. May orders Skitty to use Assist (Ember), but Skitty uses Gust, waking Numel up. Skitty corrects and uses Ember, powering itself up. It wakes the Numel up, so they get tempered up. Numel use Flamethrower, overheating the machine. Team Rocket uses the water spray again, calming Numel down. Skitty uses DoubleSlap, destroying the spray. Numel uses Flamethrower, setting the machine on fire. The machine is destroyed, so May and Numel go away.
Team Rocket is frustrated because of May and Skitty and sees the others arriving. Seviper and Cacnea are sent out to battle. Seviper uses Poison Tail, but Furret evades and uses Slam, knocking Seviper out. Cacnea uses Needle Arm, but Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, blasting Team Rocket off. Numel goes to eat berries. Julie thanks the gang for assistance and gives them directions to Lavaridge Town.
- Featured Pokémon: Kirlia, Graveler, Combusken, Togetic.
- In the middle of the episode, a classic Pokémon identification can be seen. The Pokémon shown was Growlithe.
- The Pokémon chosen to be most effective was Combusken. However, Combusken would receive more damage, as Kirlia is Hello Chief, how are you doing? I'm behind you.-type.
- In the closing credits, Karen Neill is listed instead of Caroline Hellman for "Additional Voices".

(Sioux City) -- The driver of a semi loaded with cattle that rolled over near Correctionville Tuesday night has been arrested for driving while impaired. The Woodbury County Sheriff's office reports that 53 year old Kevin Pruismann of Sioux Center was charged with O.W.I. after the semi he was driving rolled over in the 1200 block of Osceola Avenue, north of Correctionville around 7:30 p.m.

Attorney General Miller Wants Comments On Regional Crime Victim Assistance
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Attorney General Tom Miller wants to hear from Iowans on a proposed plan to revamp victim services.
The Crime Victim Assistance Division is seeking public comment on a plan to divide the crime victim service areas into six regions. Within each, the state would fund regional shelter programs, domestic violence programs and sexual assault programs.
Miller says state and federal funding has dropped over the past three years. He says Iowa has to develop new ways to deliver better and more cost-effective services. If not, cuts will have to be
Thirteen meetings will be held during the next few weeks, beginning Monday in Oelwein and Waterloo.
Others are in Sioux City, Storm Lake, Atlantic, Creston, Burlington, Clinton, Mason City, Ames, Ottumwa, Des Moines and Coralville.
Fired Banker Gets Job Back
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - A 67-year-old Des Moines man fired by Wells Fargo Home Mortgage over a minor crime nearly 50 years ago has been cleared to return to work in the banking industry.
The Des Moines Register reports the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation approved Richard Eggers' waiver application. He lost his job at a call center in July for putting a cardboard dime in a
washing machine at a Laundromat in 1963.
Banks have been firing low-level employees like Eggers since new federal banking employment guidelines were enacted in 2011 and new mortgage employment guidelines took hold in February.
Eggers' attorney says the FDIC approved the waiver on September 26th, about a month after it was submitted. Waivers have taken six months to a year.
Eggers is pleased, but questions the timing.

It is safe, in moderate amounts.
Regular soda provides calories without any other nutrients, and you want to make every calorie count when you're pregnant. Don't let soda replace nutritious foods and drinks.
Also consider that the recommended limit of caffeine during pregnancy is 200 milligrams (mg) a day. So with a typical soda containing 35 to 55 mg of caffeine, it's wise to limit yourself accordingly, and take into account other sources of caffeine in your diet, such as coffee, tea, and energy drinks.
Editors' note: For more information, see our article on caffeine during pregnancy.

Sandy showed Bay Park Sewage Plant shortcomings
Residents, advocacy groups, politicians agree that much more needs to be done; A Q&A with the County DPW
1 2 Next page >
Bay Park resident Nora Garcia-Osuna described what she found in her backyard after Hurricane Sandy as "mounds of hard, layered, crusted-over sewage" — the likes of which she had never seen before.
The plant, at the southernmost tip of East Rockaway, was built in 1949, when Harry S. Truman was president and the population of Nassau County was about half what it is today. Following a 2011 consolidation with sewer plants in Lawrence and Cedarhurst, Bay Park now treats 65 million gallons of sewage per day — 40 percent of the county's waste. (The state DEC allows it to process up to 72 million gallons.)

How about the county of Nassau.
Thursday, February 14, 2013 | Report this
I have been thinking about a class action since I had to have my house decontaminated due to the failure of the sewage plant and the subsequent spillage of raw waste into the streets and the surrounding area grounds and homes. The County conducted a phase based upon the environmental recommendations to remove any porous materials in the homes. My house now no longer has walls or floors and I'd like to know where the liability is for that and how I can begin after so long to recover and/or rebuild. Flood insurance compensation doesn't come anywhere near to helping. I'd like to know if others feel that way and how to go about initiating a class action suit.

Cheney, WA (Sports Network) - Venky Jois tallied his ninth double-double of
the season with 20 points and 13 rebounds as the Eastern Washington Eagles
defeated the Portland State Vikings, 76-65, in a Big Sky Conference bout at
Reese Court.
Jois also blocked three shots for EWU (5-15, 3-7 Big Sky), which snapped a
four-game losing streak. Parker Kelly scored 17 points on 5-of-8 from 3-point
range, while Martin Seiferth and Kevin Winford netted 13 and 12, respectively.
For Portland State (5-12, 3-7), Aaron Moore recorded 20 points and 10
rebounds, Michael Harthun had 14 points, and Gary Winton chipped in 12 points.
The Vikings are now losers of four in a row.
EWU shot just 37.5 percent from the field in the first half, but it made six
3-pointers in the opening 20 minutes and took a 33-25 advantage into the
break. Portland State went without a trey in the frame.
The Eagles' field goal efficiency improved to 57.1 percent after halftime, and
they held at least a seven point advantage throughout the second half.
EWU outscored Portland State in the paint, 34-20.

ididit's Direct-fit Camaro and Firebird Steering Column - Completing The IllusionWritten by on October 1, 2012 Swapping in ididit's new direct-fit Camaro and Firebird steering column is a snap
We're firm believers in doing things the right way, and all the way. For example, if you decide to swap your column shift automatic (or manual for that matter) over to floor shift like we did with our project car '77 Chevy Nova (Mar. '12), you can't just leave the original column shifter in place. The floor shift conversion will just never look legit with the telltale shifter boss on the column, and unfortunately there's just no good way to hide it. You have to complete the illusion.
Even if you just yank the handle and leave the ugly shifter bump as we were forced to do on our '68 Nova project car (no one makes a column for '68 model Novas), other problems can arise, such as the collar rotating from vibration and telling the stock Neutral safety switch that the car is in gear and not allowing the engine to crank. So then you have to unplug that harness. Starting to feel a bit cobbled isn't it? We're just not OK with stuff like that distracting from the hard work and good parts we've installed so far.
Of course new factory-style columns aren't offered for fourth-gen Novas, but thanks to ididit, direct bolt-in columns are now offered for second-gen Camaros and Firebirds, which is nearly a direct bolt-in for the later Novas. These '70-75 second-gen F-body columns (PN 1620860051, $793.62) are collapsible like original for safety, and you also get the ergonomic benefit of eight-position tilt. That's one of the most underappreciated niceties in late-model cars that we miss in our vintage projects.
Since ididit designed these new columns as a direct-fit kit rather than a universal style, the wiring harness is all plug-and-play. The guys at ididit even made sure to use an original-style ignition switch with the correct clocking, so odds are no one will even notice it's not a restored factory part. For maximum stealth on our '77 Nova install, we opted for the black powdercoat version, but the columns are also available in bare steel and chrome-plated finishes.

Yes, that is a Budweiser beer tap topping the column shifter in the EcoNova. Kinda fun, but it does tend to raise the eyebrows of Johnny Law if you get pulled over. Even if we removed it though, we'd still be stuck with the telltale mounting boss. Also note the band of electrical tape wrapped around the column hiding some as yet unknown damage.To remove the old column it must first be detached from the intermediate shaft that connects it to the steering box. One bolt traps the splined end of the column in this clamp. Removing it will allow the column to slide out once the interior mounts are taken loose, though the clamp may require a little prying to relieve pressure.We removed our column shift linkage when we installed the horseshoe-style shifter from YearOne, but if yours is still connected it'll need to be removed in order for the column to slide out.With the firewall plate loose, the only thing left holding the column in place is the underdash mount. The two large outer nuts are the ones to take loose; we'll be removing the mount itself once the column is out. It's a good idea to make locating marks on the aluminum isolation pads to ensure the new column ends up in the same spot.Once the underdash mount is loose, the whole column is ready to drop down. Before it will slide out though, the relay pack and Neutral safety switch need to be disconnected. If you're also working on a fourth-gen Nova, be cautious with the firewall mount since there is a gasket behind it that can be reused if it's in good shape.GM spot-welded the firewall mount to the column in three spots, so to reuse it they will need to be drilled out. Once it's loose, the column shifter linkage will need to be cut off as well so the mount can slide off.If you're working on an F-body, ididit has you covered with their new replacement floor mount and gasket, but it's unfortunately the wrong shape for the EcoNova. We will be using the clamp that's included with the kit, however.
We had assumed that second-gen F-bodies and fourth-gen X-bodies would have the same intermediate shaft since the columns were the same, but the intermediate shaft in the '77 Nova has a wide locating spline that's 180 degrees from the notch the securing bolt slides through. We used a Dremel tool and a thin grinding disc to remove one spline from the ididit column. Problem solved.To secure the original firewall mount to the ididit column we could have spot-welded it using the original weld location that we drilled out, but we opted to use ididit's clamp from the F-body kit since it offered a simple solution that worked perfectly well. We were also able to reuse the original gasket since it came out without tearing and was in good shape.The '70-74 Novas used a 3.875-inch flat plug for the turn signal connection, but '75-and-later cars used a 4.5-inch one. These are very easy to switch by using a small screwdriver to depress the tang that retains the wire in the clip. The terminals (letters P through G) are exactly the same and will match color for color to the plug under the dash.While the original GM column uses a special relay pack attached to the column, ididit uses reliable standard relays with a cool adapter harness from American Autowire.Under the dash, the wires that were unplugged when the original column was dropped are removed from the plugs just like the turn signal wires previously. The American Autowire harness is color keyed to the original wires for simplicity; there will be a few unnecessary wires for the factory idiot lights. Also noteworthy: The ididit column does not have a provision for a Neutral safety switch since it is not a column shift style. Those wires should be connected to a switch on your floor shifter.Ididit includes new emergency flashers, turn signal, and tilt levers with the column that look like better versions of the factory stuff. The tilt and emergency levers screw in while the turn signal lever is locked into the turn signal cam with a single screw.If you're fond of your factory Camaro or Firebird steering wheel, it'll bolt right on. We never even considered putting the ugly factory Nova steering wheel on our sweet new column, so we ordered a new custom wheel and GM column adapter kit from Summit Racing (steering wheel, PN SUM-772712, $139.95; install kit PN SUM-772800, $32.95). With the wheel screwed to the adapter, the center retaining nut gets torqued to 45 ft-lb.The ididit column uses a far more reliable twist-in–style locking retainer for the horn pin. Otherwise, it assembles just like the original with the spring inserted first; it connects to the Summit Racing horn button with a preterminated wire.

WASHINGTON - The House is holding a rare Saturday session where GOP leaders are scrambling to build consensus with the party for a stopgap spending bill that can avert an impending Oct. 1 government shutdown.
The House GOP leadership plans a vote on a bill that would delay the Affordable Care Act for one year, according to a senior GOP aide who would not be identified ahead of the public announcement. Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, is under significant pressure from the right to hold the line on insisting that any stopgap bill delay or defund President Obama's health care law.
The Senate passed a stopgap bill Friday to keep the government running through Nov. 15 and sent it back to the House. The bill stripped out a House GOP provision to defund the law. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and President Obama have said they will not support any funding bill that aims to dismantle the law.
Boehner said he will not accept a "clean" funding bill and intends to amend it and send it back to the Senate by Monday.
Reid warned Republicans that the only way to avoid a shutdown was to approve the Senate bill. "This is it. Time is gone. Our rules are different than the House," he said Friday. The Senate could take five to six days to approve another stopgap bill if the House returns a bill that again defunds or delays the health care law. The Senate is not in session this weekend.
Further fueling fears of a shutdown was Reid's acknowledgment that House and Senate leaders are not communicating. In previous budget clashes, behind-the-scenes negotiations were underway. "We've made it very clear that the only way to solve this problem is just accept what we've done, just accept it," he said.
Most of the public would not feel the effects of a shutdown immediately. Government operations considered essential, like mail delivery, air-traffic control, and Social Security and Medicare, would continue unabated, but national parks and museums would close. Certain government employees would not get paid, but they would receive back pay when the government reopens. A short-term shutdown is unlikely to cause much long-term economic damage unless it drags on longer.
House Republicans are also working to put together a legislative package tied to an impending vote to raise the debt ceiling, the nation's borrowing limit, that will hit Oct. 17, according to Treasury Secretary Jack Lew. The bill would suspend the debt ceiling through the 2014 elections in exchange for a one-year delay of implementation of the health care law and instructions on how to overhaul the federal tax code without raising additional revenue.
The package includes a grab bag of perennially popular GOP legislation that is unpalatable to Democrats, such as construction of a new oil pipeline from Canada to Texas, and increasing means testing for Medicaid recipients.
The package has also divided House Republicans for a number of reasons, forcing leaders to delay plans to vote on the package this weekend. Many lawmakers want to resolve the stopgap spending bill first, while others are concerned that the package does not include enough long-term deficit reduction.
President Obama has maintained that he will veto any legislation that seeks to delay or defund his signature domestic achievement, and Democrats have vowed not to negotiate over the debt ceiling. There is no precedent for a U.S. debt limit default, but there is consensus that it could have sweeping, negative consequences for the U.S. economy.

Stephen Marro is ready for his close-up
(Page 2 of 4)
Marro's movie, which he produced with his childhood friend Kevin Lane, who also grew up in Long Beach, has generated considerable excitement since it began circulating through the regional festivals this year. It took the Best Director award at the Hoboken International Film Festival, Outstanding Achievement in Writing and Best Cinematography at Visionfest in New York City, was honored with Best Editing and Best Original Score, an Audience Award along with Best Original Score and an Honorable Mention for Best Original Song at the Long Island International Film Expo, Best Feature Film at the Toronto Independent Film Festival, also Best Screenplay at the Prescott and Hills Film Festival, as well as the Best Film – Festival Director's Choice and Best Actor awards at the Hills Festival.
All in all, it amounts to 12 awards at nine film festivals. But who's counting?
"I am elated," said Marro. "You work very hard to be recognized and this has been extremely gratifying. It has been so encouraging that all these folks and audiences feel so good about it. Now we want to take it the next step and see how we do in a couple of markets, and ultimately find a major distributor for a wide release."
For the moment, Marro has been self-distributing his film, helped by the positive festival response. "This has been an entirely independently-created film. The money was raised independently [with the help of his friend Lane, who served as executive producer], shot independently and now we're releasing it independently. There is a story in that in this do-it yourself culture."
And that is something Marro will be happy to discuss with those aspiring to get into the film business. He will be holding Q&A sessions throughout the weekend, following the showings of his film. Marro will conduct these discussions after the film's 7:40 p.m. screenings on Friday and Saturday evenings, and after the 3:10 p.m. showing on Sunday. Marro will appear with actor Adam Storke, one of the film's stars and possibly another cast member.
"Anyone who is interested in filmmaking should come to the Q&A and hear what we have to say," Marro said.

ATLANTA, GA -- When Bruce LeVell attended the election night party packed with Georgia Republicans, this is what he says he saw: "I saw one particular culture."
Levell is the African American chairman of the Gwinnett Republican party. Tuesday night, he says he a roomful of mostly white Republicans -- and saw a party potentially in danger.
"And I looked over at the Democrat side, and I saw multiculture," LeVell said. "And I said, in order to progress and to move this GOP ahead, this body has to look like that body."
This is the paradox in Georgia: The Republican party has never been more powerful than it is now, controlling state government from top to bottom. Yet the demographics suggest the GOP in Georgia needs to adapt to keep its majority intact.
Georgia Democrats had very sparing victories Tuesday but still had a good night. President Obama won largely on the strength of his support from women and especially from voters of color.
Although Georgia politics reflect the mostly white makeup of the Republican party, demographic trends show that whites in Georgia will soon be outnumbered by nonwhites.
"This is a wakeup call for the Republican party and the Georgia Republican party is not immune to this," said political science professor Andra Gillespie of Emory University. There's no way that the Republican party anywhere in the country can continue to be viable and ignore the fact that the United States is becoming much more racially and ethnically diverse."
Dr. Gillespie says Georgia Republicans can retain power for perhaps another ten years before nonwhite voters make the Democrats more competitive. LeVell says the GOP needs to act before then.
"You can just sit back and do nothing and preach to the choir. Which, the choir is becoming very limited and smaller. Or you can reach a hand out and say hey, y'all come and sit down at the table," LeVell said.
LeVell and Gillespie says it also means the GOP may have to rethink some of its approaches to issues like immigration in order to appeal to the nonwhite voters who could control Georgia politics a a decade or more from now.

The Depression Wellness Guide is an educational booklet that helps adults already diagnosed with depression (and their family members) monitor treatment with daily and weekly tools.
The Depression Wellness Guide is designed to help you and a family member:
- Get well faster and stay well
- Understand what helps and what doesn't
- Know if you're having adverse reactions to medication
- Avoid hospitalizations and suicidal behavior
This guide is for adults:
- Diagnosed with depression and the family and friends who want to help them.
- With depression or dysthymia, NOT bipolar disorder (manic depression).
- Taking antidepressant medication OR in talk therapy.
The guide works best when used with family members or friends. Working with others helps people with depression get better sooner and stay well. While the guide is most effective when used with others, it can be used alone, either by the person with depression or the family member/friend.
Families for Depression Awareness developed the guide in response to a Food and Drug Administration's advisory asking patients, family members, and clinicians to monitor antidepressant treatment. We tested the guide with hundreds of families across the country.
Here is what they said:
"The guide helped my husband and I take stock of our feelings, talk about them, own them, and feel more grounded." Lori Gillen
"My teen daughter and I both used the guides and my daughter really loved 'monitoring mommy'." Cynthia Armistead
"The guide helped me tremendously in answering my therapist's question, 'How have you been?' That was always difficult to answer and it was easy to say that I was awful. But guide showed that I really was improving." Mary Margaret D.
"I was blown away by the positive effect the guide had on me. It made all the difference in my recovery. I was able to recognize certain feelings and situations as key trigger points when I could barely see a ray of hope." Cynthia Kapin
