As we age, our skin tends to show the years in more ways than one. Folds and sags here, spots and blemishes there, and a generous network of creases and wrinkles—most of us showcase, for better or for worse, a whole life story in our complexion.

On a break during work I was able to observe and document mid-day traffic in Utrecht.
Also on this day and the next, same location, I witnessed the start of the new academic year: Introduction Week. Fraternities, student sports clubs and other establishments trying to woo these freshmen and women into joining. These kids (do I sound old now?) have to go from one part of town to other to not miss a thing…and you won't see 'm on anything else but two wheels. How else are you going to quickly and smoothly establish a connection with the opposite sex, right?

February 2011 Classic Trucks Letters - Postage PaidWritten by on December 21, 2010
I liked the article on the F-100 with the 392. It brought back sad memories as I had a 392 I was going to build and put in my new '68 Road Runner. That didn't happen and the 392 got sent off to the scrappers for money ... I still feel sick about that!
Now I have a '50 GMC truck, which I hope in some lifetime to get on the road. I love CLASSIC TRUCKS and the how-to articles and the upgrades. One question though: How come on most of the truck features there's never a mention of how many horses the engines make? I like to know what horsepower the builder gets out of what they put in their rides.
Terry Harrison
Via email
Thanks, I'm happy you enjoyed that feature-Hemis are pretty popular with F-100 owners it seems. Bummer losing that 392, I had a similar experience with an A-code 289 Ford years ago so I can relate.
As far as listing horsepower claims goes, most owners don't supply those numbers. It's more than likely because few of us actually dyno testing our projects during assembly or after they're completed and most numbers would be guesswork at best. Horsepower claims are right up there, with folks not mentioning how much money they have invested in a project-and I don't blame 'em. If my wife ever read what I had into any of my projects she'd beat me with a stick. RIZ
First, I want to let you know how much I enjoy the magazine each month. The feature articles are terrific and the how-to articles sure help me out with my project-which brings me to my reason for writing.
I recently purchased my first project vehicle, a '42 Ford COE 1 1/2-ton. It may be proving to be a much larger project than I had anticipated, but that is not going to stop me. I am interested in converting the original 6V system to a 12V system. Since the truck is not currently running, I am not certain what my first steps should be for the electrical system conversion. In your opinion, should I try and get the truck running first, before I convert the system to 12 volts? The engine is free, and I am able to turn it by hand. I have also removed each spark plug, sprayed a shot of fogging oil into each cylinder and replaced the plugs. My next step is going to be to disconnect the fuel tank and temporarily replace it with a marine fuel tank. I then plan on connecting a battery to try and start the engine. I hope it goes as smoothly as it sounds.
I am also running into a problem while trying to remove rusted screws and bolts. I have found the PB Blaster product to be extremely effective, but some bolts, (the door hinge bolts in particular), are proving to be a real bear to remove. Any tips on how to make it an easier task? A friend told me to try heating them, but I am afraid of warping the surrounding metal.
Thank you for your expert help, and I look forward to reading your response.
Via email
Sounds like a neat project!
I'm happy you're enjoying CLASSIC TRUCKS, and I'm glad you took time to write-though if you're looking for an expert's help I'll have to hunt one up for ya. If you'll settle for mediocre help here it goes ...
First off I think I'd start by seeing if you can get the thing to run in stock form before you move on to upgrades. As far as seeing if it'll run, start by changing the oil and coolant, installing a fresh set of points, a condenser, and plugs. Then move on to a fully charged 6V battery and some fresh fuel via that portable tank. Crank it over and see what happens. If it fires up and runs well (after some fiddling I'd imagine) I'd then start thinking hard about whether I'd want to rebuild and stick with the stock motor or replace it with a modern engine/transmission combo of your choice (even if it does actually run you won't know how tired the ol' thing is until you take it for a ride and see how it does under load). This brings me to my next point. You'll want to make sure it'll stop before you make it go. It's for this reason I always begin a project by concentrating on its foundation-the chassis, brakes, and suspension before I get to the driveline.
Rusty bolts are another problem. For those who are unfazed by penetrants, heat is one of the last resorts (the very last being drilling and re-tapping). Excessive heat will indeed warp thin metal, but if you're careful and apply the heat in a controlled manner you may well get away with it. The door hinge boltholes are normally backed by captured nuts that are equally as stout as the bolts so they'll help soak up some of that heat applied to the bolt. Just don't go turning them cherry red or you may get a bit of heat-related distortion in nearby sheetmetal.
Well, I hope this was of some help-but I'd suggest you take some time to sit down and figure out a plan of attack before your start ripping into it and spending gobs of cash, only to regret it later if you change course. RIZ

Video: RAW | Police searching home of church shooting suspect
Video: Remembering Greg McDowell of Creflo Dollar's World Changers Church International
ATLANTA -- U.S. Marshals say they have arrested 51-year-old Floyd Palmer at Macy's at Lenox Square.
Palmer is accused of shooting a church volunteer at point blank range at World Changers Church International Wednesday morning.
Officers went through Palmer's home Wednesday afternoon looking for evidence. They returned overnight with a bomb squad over concern for what turned out to be a homemade alarm system.

Investigators said Palmer entered a chapel on the church's campus and started shooting. Palmer is a former church employee; he resigned in August of this year, according to Fulton County spokeswoman Kay Lester.
Fulton County officials confirmed that the victim was 39-year-old Greg McDowell, a church volunteer.
Investigators say McDowell was on stage and leading a prayer when he was shot. Lester said multiple shots were fired, but no one else was injured.

The church, which is headed up by Pastor Creflo Dollar, is located on Burdett Road near Old National Highway in south Fulton County. Dollar was not at the church when the shooting happened.
The church's daycare was evacuated after the shooting. Parents were called to pick up their children.
Nearby Bethune Elementary School and McNair Middle School were temporarily on lockdown after the shooting, according to a Fulton County Schools spokesperson.

Rosa B.F. Prince, 84
Rosa Belle Franklin Prince was born in Washington, D.C. on Sept. 23, 1929. The fourth child of Deacon Claude Franklin and Deaconess Cynthia Lowe Franklin (both deceased), Rosa's siblings were Paul Franklin, who died in infancy, Lucy Franklin Jefferson and Helen Franklin Haskins, both of whom are also deceased. Rosa is survived by her husband, Lonnie Richardson Prince, son Christopher Prince, daughter Dr. Sabiyha Prince, sons-in-law Dr. Steven Eversley and her granddaughters, Mariama Sojourner Eversley and Thandiwe Harriet Eversley. She is also survived by family members, Lee Folia Fletcher, Sarah Harley, and Terry Handy, and will be missed by a host of family members and friends.
Rosa and her siblings were products of The Great Migration. Her father left the Jim Crow south to provide a better life for his wife and children. Claude and Cynthia Franklin worked a host of jobs to provide for their daughters education. Rosa attended the D.C. public school system and graduated from Dunbar High School, Howard University (BA), and George Washington University with a Master's degree in Urban Planning. She began her working career with the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare transferring later to the D.C. Department of Welfare as a case worker. Later she joined the D.C. school system teaching at Tyler, Stanton and Clark Elementary School, and MacFarland Jr. High School.
Rosa married Lonnie Richardson Prince of Ashville, N.C. in June of 1954. They were blessed with the births of Christopher in 1955 and Robin (Sabiyha) in 1959 and afterwards, Rosa went to extra lengths to enroll the children in extra-curricular activities and their respective high schools. In addition to the value placed on family, her Christian faith was central to the life of Rosa Prince. Her formative religious years were spent in the Mt. Airy Baptist Church where she was baptized at a very early age under the pastorship of Rev. Earl K. Tyler. Rosa participated in Sunday school, BTU, Junior Ushers, Choral Group, and Chapel Choir. She also sang with the chorus of Faith United Church of Christ (UCC) and Peoples Congregational UCC. As a member of Peoples Congregational UCC, she participated with the choir until throat surgery made that impossible. Rosa was also a member of her church's Key Stone Circle, Credit Union, Scrooby Circle, Food Pantry and August-September Brith month club.
After retirement from the D.C. Public Schools, Rosa volunteered at Martha's Table, Children's Hospital, the Urban League and as a counselor for the D.C. Hotline. She also tutored seniors through the D.C. Department on Aging and talked frequently about the elderly clients she had so much affection for. Rosa made her transition peacefully, at home, and in the presence of her family.

South Dakota State University quarterback Austin Sumner was named Missouri Valley Football Conference Offensive Player of the Week in leading the Jackrabbits to a 42-13 victory Nov. 23 over Youngstown State.
A junior from Brandon, Sumner accounted for three touchdowns — two passing and one rushing — in the season finale which helped vault the Jackrabbits into the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs for the second consecutive year. Sumner was efficient in snowy and blustery conditions, completing 15-of-19 passes for 170 yards, while running eight times for 38 yards. His touchdown passes covered 3 yards to Zach Zenner and 8 yards to Jason Schneider, while his 7-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter gave SDSU a three-score advantage. Sumner also had rushes of 16 and 12 yards to set up Jackrabbit touchdowns as SDSU went 10-fo-13 on third-down attempts on the afternoon.
The Jackrabbits open the FCS playoffs Saturday at Northern Arizona. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. Mountain (7 p.m. Central) in Flagstaff, Ariz. Radio coverage will be available on the Jackrabbit Sports Network, with video coverage on ESPN3.com.

|Holyoke team wins Brain Bowl
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
In an overtime, sudden death championship round against the team from Green Acres Elementary, the Holyoke third- and fourth-grade team won the Fort Morgan Optimists' Club annual Brain Bowl last weekend.
Saturday Feb. 9, two Holyoke Elementary School teams competed against teams from other schools in northeast Colorado to earn points during one written round and four oral rounds of questions. Each team consisted of six members who answered questions in the areas of literature, science, math, history, technology, sports, spelling, grammar, current events and trivia.
Members of the Holyoke Elementary Brain Bowl teams are pictured from left, front row, Ashley Rahe and Isaac Strauss; second row, Haley Van Overbeke, Rylan Worley, Cade Killin and Tate Dille; third row, Emily Jelden, Ashlyn Churchwell and Josie Herman; fourth row, Kyra Loutensock, Emma Roll and Alex Vieselmeyer; and back row, coaches Christina Martinez and Laura Loutensock.
At the end of the regular rounds, both teams had represented the community well, but the fifth- and sixth-grade team was knocked out of the competition, while the third- and fourth-grade students were ranked at the top of their division with 108 points.
After 30 questions in the championship round, Holyoke and the Green Acres teams were tied at 12 points each. Holyoke's team won the tie-breaking point with their rapid buzz-in on a question asking, "What continent has the second largest land mass?"
Team member Cade Killin fed the correct answer to team spokesman Rylan Worley to earn the final point with the correct answer of "Africa." The final decision for the championship was decided when each team's coach contested a question. After a tense few minutes, Holyoke was declared the champion with a score of 14-12.
Students were chosen to participate on the team based upon a general knowledge assessment. Representing the grades 3-4 were Tate Dille, Cade Killin, Rylan Worley, Ashley Rahe, Haley Van Overbeke and Isaac Strauss. Loren Jo Oberle served as the team alternate.
Students on the grade 5-6 team were Alex Vieselmeyer, Emma Roll, Kyra Loutensock, Ashlyn Churchwell, Emily Jelden and Josie Herman. Volunteer coaches for the Brain Bowl teams were teachers Christina Martinez and Laura Loutensock.

Cyclones Defeat Kansas, 34-0
AMES, Iowa – Iowa State had a season-high 502 yards of total offense en route to a 34-0 win over Kansas Saturday evening at Jack Trice Stadium. The Cyclones, who posted their first Big 12 shutout since Sept. 29, 2001 vs. Baylor, improve to 2-9 overall and 1-7 in conference play. Kansas falls to 3-8 overall and 1-7 in league action.
Turning Point of the Game
Iowa State owned a 10-0 lead early in the second quarter when the defense made a big stand, stopping the Jayhawks on a fourth-and-one at the ISU 13. Jacques Washington and Cory Morrissey stuffed James Sims, who rushed for 211 yards last weekend against West Virginia, to keep KU off the scoreboard.
Discuss it now. Visit our facebook page to have your say on the turning point of today's game.
Offensive Game Ball Goes To...
Quarterback Grant Rohach had plenty of help but the redshirt freshman was solid in leading the Cyclones to the win. Rohach completed 15-of-20 passes for a career-high 300 yards and a TD.
A trio of seniors made an impact in their final games at Jack Trice Stadium. Justin Coleman had a career-high eight catches for 78 yards. Shontrelle Johnson ran for 84 yards and scored a touchdown and fellow running back James White also got in the end zone and had 33 yards in the game.
The Cyclones finished with season-highs of 300 passing yards and 202 rushing yards.
Defensive Game Ball Goes To...
Seniors Jeremiah George and Jacques Washington were instrumental in Iowa State posting its first conference shutout in over a decade. George finished with a game-high 14 tackles and forced his first-career fumble in the game. George had 1.5 tackles for a loss and now has 11 tackles for a loss this season, all of which have come in Big 12 play.
Washington recovered the fumble that George forced and finished the game with a career-high tying 13 tackles. Washington became the third Iowa State defensive back with 300 career tackles. He is the 16th Cyclone overall with 300 career stops.

The other night, Son looked curiously at me and asked, "Mama, why are you wearing your glasses?"
"Because my eyes were feeling very tired, so I had to take out my contacts," I replied. (I'd only slept about four hours the night before, and I was too exhausted to give the more detailed type of explanation he usually craves.)
"We-elll..." he paused. "But you look like Grandma." He nodded, pleased with his own assessment. "You look like a old old old old old old old old old OLD old OLD grandma."
I opened my mouth to reply, but before I could get any words out, he tilted his head to one side, looked fully into my face, and quickly reassessing, said, "Actually, you look like a NEW grandma."
* * *
Just before bedtime, we will let Son watch a short something on television if it's otherwise been a no-TV day. We typically choose something from the OnDemand menu, since the episodes of shows like "Max and Ruby" are about 23 minutes long, and perfect for that little bit of winding down between dinner and the bedtime ritual. He knows we don't start movies at this time of day, since they are far too long.
He and I snuggled up on the couch a few nights ago, and I asked him what program he would like to watch.
His eyes sparkled as he pressed himself up against me. "How about Cheeto-Trax?" he asked. The "Cheeto-Trax" DVD came with the Geo-Trax set he got for Christmas. (Don't ask me to explain his pronunciation of Geo-Trax. He calls Cheetos, the food, CheetAHs, so there's no logic anywhere discernible.)
He loves this Geo-Trax short, which features the train he has. "That would be fine," I replied.
"But you know, technically," he said, drawing out the long word and savoring it on his tongue, "technically, Cheeto-Trax is a movie." He's right: even though it is short, it is not an episode of anything. Somehow, my Son has learned to appreciate technicalities.
Even if he doesn't always get the point about when to deploy them. Because while technically, I suppose I am old enough to be a grandma, I don't much appreciate being reminded of that fact when my oldest child is only four-and-a-half.

I have to giggle at the old/new grandma thing. Imp asked me the other day, in her 2 1/2 year old wisdom if I was old? Where do they get this stuff?
And isn't it the BEST when they pick up a new word, especially something like "technically"? I get the biggest kick out of watching the imp play with the new words she hears and trying to pair them up with other words. Her current fav is "well, actually probably" I don't know where she gets this stuff!
I think it's awesome that your little one discerns between CHEETO and CHEETAH and amazingly funny. I can totally see why he thinks of Cheetos as Cheetah's! Must be that annoying organge cat on the bag, Chester.

I remember starting Kindergarten and thinking how OLD the 8th graders were.

Old is just a state of mind. At least, that's what I tell myself every time I find a new gray or age spot.
Technically, huh? I think he's gonna be a smarty!!

- Zoeyjane said...
So, just to clarify, is a New Grandma a compliment in the eyes of son? Cuz I certainly feel like one, sometimes, and I'm wondering if that's a good thing...

My 12 year old daughter's best friend's mother is older than my mom. They think that is absolutely hilarious! You know what though? She looks a lot younger than my mom does. I think motherhood keeps you looking and feeling young.

No matter what we try to do, we look old to our kids. No "cool" mom status is going to change that fact. We just are old to them. Their babysitter is "old" to them!
I sure it was meant as a compliment
- July 25, 2008 at 12:59 PM
- houseofD said...
I can appreciate this. My "sons" are 21 years old. They aren't my real sons, but for whatever reason they call me Pa. Sometimes they remind me that on a TECHNICALITY I am indeed, i suppose, old enough to be their father... for real.
I do not appreciate this one bit.
Still loving your stories!

Haha, kids and their technicalities. My brothers are SO good at those...I'm not too bad myself.

My step-sister, same age as me, has twin grandbabies who will start kindergarten this fall. I need her around to help me feel younger. Hopefully my own grandmother days are a good many years down the road.

Would you rather be an old mother or a new grandmother? I do love Son's brain! :-)

text: I started hunting solo because no one would go with me. It was a little difficult at first but I got used to it pretty quick and really like it. I think I may be a little bit crazier than most hunters. I love to go far and hard/fast. My first backcountry solo elk hunt I hiked into a wilderness area 7 miles in the middle of the night before the opener. I made camp around 2 a.m. and woke up at six with 6 huge mule deer bucks 100 yards away from me. I shot a bull with my bow later that day on the other side of a 12000 foot peak. It was great and im addicted to bowhunting the backcountry. When I train I do it the same way far, hard and fast. I have turned off some friends from hunting with me because of this so I just keep going solo. I am always more successful solo, I do whatever I feel like doing and go as hard as I feel like going. Cameron Hanes book Backcountry Bowhunting really got me excited and helped me with the idea of solo hunting. Be smart, prepared, and give it a try.

YES, I will be subbing again, but I won't be purchasing as many extra subs to "help the line" since several items have been very difficult to get rid of even at a loss (i.e. Fighting Foe Men, Karatti, and Netossa).
Are you in?
Last year we were all worried about the sub not going through. We made it! And look at how many cool figures we now have.
The 2014 sub is crucial to completing the line. Are you getting one? We need everyone in on this, might as well start hyping it now.
Otherwise I may never get a Hawke.

I am sure I'm getting one.
My seller/trader/buyer feedback:
MOTUC Most Wanted: 1) Stridor 2) Land Shark 3) Road Ripper
I'm getting two as always.
Awesome sticker included!
As with last year, I will likely decide after I see what exactly what is up for grabs, I know it's more so a Vintage heavy year, but, I will have to decide after SDCC.
Recent.... HATMOTU Trap Jaw
Coming.... Classics Vultak
Wanted.... Classics Masque & Callix?
Oh man, did I forget to use these [sarcasm][/sarcasm] again? Sorry....
I'll be getting at least 5 subs as usual.

I would love to subscribe and I really hope Mattel gives us a good year. I did not sub this year because of character selection. I was tempted when they reopened the "mini-subs" but I just get myself to sub when I didn't like so many character choices. A few new or unusual characters are fine, but it felt like there were more of those then the characters fans actually want.
Anyway, they promised to focus on core characters going forward and I really hope they keep that promise. If they do, and if the first characters they show are big names, I will gladly sub. Day of sale stress is not fun.
Nope, I'm passing on it again.

Waaaaaaaaaaay too soon for me to say.
I've become a little bored with the line and some other properties have grabbed my attention. I haven't decided if I will switch to cherry picking for 2014, but it is a viable option.
I'll need to see how the rest of 2013 shapes up with Club Eternia and Club Filmation, plus I'll need to see the reveals and SKU offerings for 2014 as well.
Ask not for whom MOTUC is made, it's made for thee.
If you have to disclaimer your like, then you don't really like it.
Have not voted yet.
This is my first sub year and out of the 5 months...I've only had one month go according to plan.
It makes me really question if I'm going to be able to make it through this year. lol
Yep, count me in for 2014.
Most Wanted MOTU Classics:
*200X ~ WMD Roboto/Sorceress *Filmation ~ Teela' Na/Hawke *Play-Sets ~ Eternia/Crystal Castle *Vehicles ~ Land Shark/Roton *Beasts ~ Stridor/Dragoon
I'll be getting 2 subs especially if it's vintage heavy.

I'll be getting two subs especially if it's POP heavy.
If there is a POP mini-sub, I will buy 3. If there is another Filmation mini-sub, I will buy 2 of those.
A Want List of Sorts: at this point... I just hope there is a 2017...
I will buy 1 for sure. I did 1 and a half this year. I might do another 1/2 sub for 2014 (share one with a friend). We'll see.

My Custom MOTUC's http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/album.php?u=36694
I'm undecided but the reality is I'll probably get 1 sub. More than that and it's too expensive now, and too hard to sell on doubles of figures I don't want. The upfront figure cost plus shipping makes me erring my money back on them just too difficult. Also whilst I'm happy to have diversity in the line I personally don't want a POP lady heavy year ad I fear we'll be getting a few in 2014.
I'm in, it's the first time I'm able to get a full sub and I am super excited!
I'm in but I'll see if I'm going to get as many subs as I did this year?
I'm certainly in!
Looking forward to another exciting year of MOTUC!!
One for me, and one of any mini-sub, as I have since they started offering.

Contract Intelligence Through Category Management & Strategic Sourcing
Government agencies are facing increasing pressure to find ways to reduce cost in the wake of decreasing budgets. At the same time, government is being asked to maintain and indeed increase their level of service and responsibility. This category management approach also takes into consideration factors such a total cost of ownership, supplier relationship management and demand management, and allowing the buying entity to make the most informed decision possible.
The CFO Agenda: Delivering value from financial transparency and audit efforts in the public and private sector
The Chief Financial Officers Act requires all Federal agencies to produce a clean financial statement on their budgets. The 2017 deadline for the military services is still four years away, and the Marines entered 2014 as the first to reach that milestone. Federal leaders face expanding mission requirements and shrinking resources, and internal controls and robust management are the necessary underpinnings of success.

In 2011, the median property tax bill in Nassau County was $8,478, putting Nassau a close second to Westchester County for the highest property taxes in the country.

I think the Senator and Davis are quite mistaken.
The 2% budget increases DO account for fixed, mandated increases in operating costs such as pension benefits and health care cost increases. This is precisely the essence of the debate that raged about the 2% limitation in the first place and was the subject of countless battles at dozens of school board meetings across the state. More egregious tho is the utter lack of understanding of how the school bill works. One need only look at it. Here in Rockville Centre the reason taxes went up more than the 2% budget increase is beacuse the RATE at which residential homeowners are taxed increased by 78 basis points , from 729 per $100 of assessed value in the 2011- 2012 tax year to 807 per $100 of assessed value this year. The RATE comes from the County not the school districts. It is the one element in the tax equation the school districts DO NOT control!!! Assuming Mr. Davis was quoted accurately, he has told a blatant untruth. One would think the Senator would know better, have a better understanding of how things work and call Davis out on his deception. I suggest the Senator do his homework rather than rely on the hacks in the Assesors office to feed him a line of utter horse hooey!

Riding to Nebraska in Style
Blog Note – Although shortened by the winter storm, the Royals Caravan trip to Nebraska got off and running Tuesday morning, heading straight to York, Neb., for a visit at York Middle School. Community Relations Director Ben Aken offers these comments on the first day of activities. You can read about the Royals Caravan on the home page of royals.com. MLB.com writer **** Kaegel will also continue to report on caravan activities throughout the month.
Sometimes a four-and-a-half hour bus ride is nothing to write home about. However, when that four-and-a-half hour ride is spent on a bus like what we are riding on, it becomes a lot more fun.
After the weather held us back a day, we had some time to make up on our Nebraska Caravan trip, which meant driving straight from Kauffman Stadium to York, Neb., Tuesday morning. Needless to say, we spent a lot of time on our bus. So, I thought I'd give you a peek inside our luxurious ride.
Stepping on the bus, we immediately are greeted by our bus driver, Cole, a guy who is earning his keep with some amazing maneuvering in and out of these small neighborhoods and communities we are making him take us to. Next to Cole is a passenger seat, which works well when it's time to give directions. The bus then opens up into what I like to call our "living room," equipped with leather couches that are perfect for lounging on to watch movies or a show on the bus' satellite TV. Yesterday, we took in several episodes of "The Office" as well as the latest "King Kong" movie.
The kitchenette is next and includes a table area where we all gathered yesterday evening to listen to Royals Hall of Fame second baseman Frank White tell stories of the 1977 Royals, who finished first in the division with a 102-60 record. White, an eight-time Gold Glove winner, also joked about how he was robbed of winning Gold Glove No. 9 in 1988. (That year, White had only four errors – all throwing errors to four different first basemen – but still lost the Gold Glove to Harold Reynolds, who finished with 18 errors that season!)
Past the kitchenette is the bathroom – no comment there – and then six bunks, which have been heavily used throughout these caravans already. Royals broadcaster Ryan Lefebvre claimed one immediately and we've discovered that mascot Sluggerrr can often be found taking his catnaps in another.
More leather couches line back of the bus with another TV mounted in the corner. Players such as pitcher Ryan Braun watch TV, chat on their cell phones or relax with a handheld Nintendo DS game back there. It has become the unofficial "quiet area" on the bus.
All in all, I'd have to say this bus is definitely a home on the road and 2006 Baseball America Minor League Player of the Year Alex Gordon agreed when he popped on the bus for the first time Wednesday morning, adding, "And it's a big improvement from last year!"

Video: Raw Video: House passes first part of Sandy aid
WASHINGTON -- The House on Friday passed the first large aid package for victims of the deadly Superstorm Sandy that hit the country's most densely populated region two months ago and led to new concerns about climate change.
The vote was 354-67. All the "no" votes came from Republicans.
The $9.7 billion measure would clear the way to pay flood insurance claims; a vote on Sandy aid by the previous, Republican-controlled House of Representatives was put off earlier this week. New Jersey's famously outspoken Republican governor, Chris Christie, erupted in response at his own party and joined New York's Democratic governor in calling the move a "disgrace."
Trying to keep calm, House Speaker John Boehner assured angry lawmakers that votes on the states' entire request for more than $60 billion in aid would be held by the middle of the month.
Sandy was blamed for 120 deaths in several states, most in New York and New Jersey, and it was the most costly natural disaster since Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005. Lawmakers have complained that it took just 10 days for Congress to approve about $50 billion in aid for Katrina.
The storm ripped apart the famed New Jersey shore and parts of the New York City area coastline, leaving thousands homeless.
If the House of Representatives approves the flood insurance proposal as expected Friday, the Senate planned to follow with a likely uncontested vote later in the day.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has warned that the National Flood Insurance Program will run out of money next week if Congress doesn't provide additional borrowing authority to pay out claims. Congress created the FEMA-run program in 1968 because few private insurers cover flood damage.
Northeastern lawmakers say the money is urgently needed for storm victims awaiting claim checks from the late October storm.
"People are waiting to be paid," said Rep. Frank LoBiondo, a Republican, whose district includes the casino-filled Atlantic City and many other coastal communities. "They're sleeping in rented rooms on cots somewhere, and they're not happy. They want to get their lives back on track, and it's cold outside. They see no prospect of relief."
About 140,000 Sandy-related flood insurance claims have been filed, FEMA officials said, and most have yet to be closed out. Many flood victims have received only partial payments.
The storm damaged or destroyed more than 72,000 homes and businesses in New Jersey. In New York, 305,000 housing units were damaged or destroyed and more than 265,000 businesses were affected.
The flood insurance measure is the first phase of a proposed Sandy aid package. The House will vote Jan. 15 on an additional $51 billion in recovery money. Senate action on that measure is expected the following week.
More than $2 billion in federal money has been spent so far on relief efforts for 11 states and the District of Columbia struck by the storm.

Junkyard Parts - Performance In the JunkyardWritten by on August 25, 2006 Think late-model salvage has nothing to offer? Not so. You Can find some great performance parts in the junkyard. We did.
We go on and on about the junkyards here in Southern California, but since most of us aren't actually from the area, we know that a lot of the stuff we come across isn't actually that common in other parts of the country-and many of you remind us regularly. For that reason, we've decided to do another junkyard crawl, but this time, we're going to focus on the later-model stuff that should be occupying yards coast to coast. There are tons of useful parts and pieces that can be pirated from newer vehicles and put into service on vintage street machines, but some of the good stuff is easy to overlook. Check out what we recently came across, and keep your eyes and your mind open.
cars and can easily be upgraded with more aggressive cam timing and intake and exhaust improvements for even more power, but that's just part of the package. These cars also have the tall B-body spindles that can be combined with aftermarket upper control arms to upgrade the handling of early A-bodies (Chevelles and the like); 12-inch brakes are a bonus. Out back, rear discs with aluminum PBR calipers can also be swapped into earlier GM cars. Plus, there's close-ratio steering, an aluminum radiator with killer electric fans, a 4L60 overdrive trans, and more. We found four 9C1 Caprices during our crawl.
The 351 Windsor is hugely popular with Blue Oval guys these days, whether it's being used to pump up a Fox-era Mustang or a vintage Ford. But Windsor cores can be elusive, particularly because the 351W was rarely, if ever, the standard engine in a passenger car or truck. Fortunately, it remained in production until 1995. One of the later-model uses was in Crown Vic police cars until the body style changed in '92 and the modular V-8 took over. This former cop Vic looks more granny with its light-blue respray, but under the hood is a Windsor topped with Ford's miserable variable venturi carb. That's your clue for spotting the Windsor in later, boxy Vics-the 302 was injected at this point.
Speaking of late Thunderbirds, the independent rear suspension used in all '89-'97 models is used in some popular Cobra replica car packages. Pulling one here would be cheaper than having to buy a whole donor car. We've seen these under a couple of early Mustangs, too, but be warned, they're kinda heavy.
Although they're quickly becoming collectible, the late second-gen Trans Ams and their Z28 cousins still frequent the yards, and they make great donors for GM street-machine projects. This is a '76, but the later they are, the better the parts. For example, '79-'81 T/As with the WS-6 package have rear disc brakes that bolt on to other muscle-era GM axles; close-ratio steering (14:1) was another part of the package that can swap to any GM car with a Saginaw steering box. The fat front sway bars also fit '64-'67 A-bodies as well as '77-'96 B-bodies (Caprice). Don't forget to check the rear for an 8.5-inch
10-bolt with Posi-traction.
Easy Big-Blocks
Technology is great, but there's still something really cool about the killer torque that can only come from a mammoth engine. The popularity of big-block Chevys and Mopars has driven up their value and their scarcity, but you can still go big for moderate cash if you're willing to step out of the mainstream. Check out these frequent yard inhabitants for ideas.
The most common big-block in any yard we go to has to be the 429/460 Ford, probably one of the most underrated engines in the musclecar realm. We built one in the Feb. '06 issue and easily made 514 hp. Even if you can't find mid-'70s barges like this, 460-powered trucks from the '80s are super plentiful. Build the short-block, swap on some aluminum heads, and you've got 500 hp and 500 lb-ft without even trying.

There's still good stuff to be had in the junkyard if you know how to separate the wheat from the chaff.The Ford 5.0L V-8 used in Mustangs from '85 to '92 featured a factory roller cam and forged pistons. It was adored by street/strip freaks and weekend warrior road racers alike for its responsiveness to upgrades and overall durability. It also makes a great swap engine for earlier Ford projects. Finding 5.0 Mustangs in the yard isn't too tough, thoughby now their engines are often clapped out thanks to years of abuse. However, the very same 5.0 H.O. can be found in '86-'92 Lincoln Mark VII LSC models, and these engines have almost always led much more pampered lives. Make sure your donor is an LSC though, as standard Mark VIIs use a lo-po 150hp 5.0.Later Mustangs are starting to show up in the yards now, and they have stuff to offer even if they're from the post-5.0 era. This 4.6L GT was heavily picked when we found it; it still had its engine, but swapping single-cam V-8s from this period doesn't interest most motorheads.But, the spindles from this SN-95 'Stang can be swapped back to a Fox-body version, enabling the use of the sealed hub, which accepts slip-on rotors. This in turn allows the newer Mustang's brakes to adapt to the Fox car. Use the stock GT pieces for a low-buck upgrade or step up to Cobra hardware, which bolts right on.For GM guys, another great late-model parts donor is the '94-'96 Chevy Caprice 9C1, better known as a police package. These have Gen II small-blocks-some are 4.3L (265ci) L99 versions, but many have the 5.7L (350ci) LT1. The 260hp, iron-head B-body LT1 is a great swap for earlierAmazing as it seems, even Cadillac's technological marvel of a few years back, the Northstar four-cam 32-valve V-8, has made its way to the boneyard. We spotted this '90s Eldorado among the usual front-drive, V-6, GM stuff, its 300hp, 4.6L engine ripe for the plucking; another turned up in a De Ville a week later. While these engines were, until very recently, only used in front-wheel-drive applications, hot rodders figured out years ago how to turn them around to a proper north-south configuration, usually using slightly modified bellhousings from 60-degree Chevy V-6s, as found in '80s Camaros and Firebirds (2.8/3.4L). It's not exactly a bolt-in, but it is a lot of technology and power for relatively few bucks.We got there a bit too late, but this '89 Thunderbird Super Coupe had an Eaton supercharger on it when it came into the yard. These cars are not uncommon in the yards around here-neither are the Pontiacs and Buicks that have a similar blower on a 3.8L Buick V-6. Using one with a carburetor might be tricky, since the air inlet is at the rear of the case, not on top. But, mating one to an injected small-block could be interesting.
It pains us to see so many Buick and Olds 455s go to the crusher, but we can't save them all. Every trip to the yard turns up at least one, probably because Buick and Olds both offered a few models that came standard with the behemoth V-8s. This '74 Riviera is among them, as isOf course, the king of cubes was Cadillac, and 500-inch versions of its V-8 are also pretty easy to locate. Early versions were only found in the Eldorado, but later, the 500 was used in all Cadillacs through '76. The '70 version was rated at an axle-twisting 550 lb-ft, and reportedly, with the available aluminum Edelbrock intake, the big Cad weighs a mere 40 pounds more than an iron-headed small-block Chevy.
