NEW YORK — It isn't what you say that counts, but who you say it about.
That's a lesson from the firestorm set off last week by Rush Limbaugh when he called a Georgetown University student a "slut" and "prostitute."
But maybe, even in the untamed world of talk-show blather, "slut" already held sway as the new s-word, an epithet that crosses the line whomever it targets and is best avoided altogether by gabmeisters.
That's what left-leaning talk-show host Ed Schultz learned painfully way back last spring. On his MSNBC show he referred to conservative commentator Laura Ingraham as a "right-wing slut." Amid the outcry triggered among Ingraham fans, he apologized, announcing that he and MSNBC had mutually agreed to his suspension for several days.
But Schultz's indiscretion was fleeting compared with Limbaugh's repeated attacks on Sandra Fluke.
The 30-year-old law student had been invited to testify to a House committee about her school's health care plan, which does not include contraception. After Republican lawmakers barred her testimony, Democrats welcomed her to speak to them at an unofficial session.
On his radio show, Limbaugh slammed Fluke as a "slut" who wanted the government to subsidize her sex life: "She wants you and me and the taxpayers to pay her to have sex," he said.
Then, the next day, he added this demand: "If we are going to pay for your contraceptives, thus pay for you to have sex ... we want you to post the videos online, so we can all watch."
For some reason, these assaults agitated many women and men.
Meanwhile, advertisers by the dozens and even a few stations began dropping Limbaugh's show.
Limbaugh's apology — a rarity (however faint-hearted) coming from this cocksure conservative — only fanned the flames.
"I should not have used the language I did," Limbaugh told listeners, even as he blasted the "double standard" he was being held to: "Rappers can say anything they want about women. It's called art. And they win awards."
Did he have a point? You don't have to be a ditto-head to wonder what the fuss was all about. This, after all, is Rush "Excellence in Broadcasting" Limbaugh, who for a quarter-century of radio dominance has gained clout and wealth with his salvos against Democrats, liberals, minorities, the poor and other disenfranchised groups.
Not to mention women. In Rush's provocative view, women in the media are "info babes," women in Congress get away with being fat while the media harp on fat politicians who are men, and, of course, progressive women are condemned as "feminazis."
So what did Limbaugh do last week that was so different? Wasn't this just Rush being Rush? What got everybody stirred up this time?
Odds are, it was the person he chose for these particular tirades.
If high-profile, take-no-prisoners pundit Laura Ingraham earns immunity from an insult like "slut," shouldn't equal protection be enjoyed by Sandra Fluke, a private citizen Limbaugh bullied with unsought attention?
She came to Capitol Hill "intending a brief dip of the toe in the cultural pool," railed liberal host Keith Olbermann on his Current TV show "Countdown," only to find herself "dragged into the deep end by day after day of searing deliberate personal and indefensible attacks by Rush Limbaugh."
There was something familiar about Limbaugh's gratuitous slurs. They recalled an episode five years ago when shock jock Don Imus slammed a group of women who, like Fluke, were innocent bystanders on the public stage, guilty only of doing yeoman duty that thrust them into the spotlight: the Rutgers University women's basketball team.

DAILY NEWS: NYFF Opening; $5 Million Benefit; Pipedream Nominees
by Eugene Hernandez, Anthony Kaufman and Brian Brooks/indieWIRE
>> 39th NYFF Kicks Off Tonight with "Va Savoir"
(indieWIRE/09.28.01) -- While Broadway struggles to regain its former Gotham
glitter, just about 20 blocks up the avenue, Lincoln Center will be the talk
of the town tonight (Friday) as it hosts the 39th New York Film Festival.
French director Jacques Rivette's "Va Savoir" opens the 17-day international
event, which arguably assembles the best films from the past year's festival
calendar, from Sundance ("Waking Life") to Berlin ("Italian for Beginners"), Cannes ("Mulholland Drive") to Venice ("Y Tu Mama Tambien"). "It's a good spread,from masters to newcomers," the Film Society of Lincoln Center's Richard Pena told indieWIRE when the lineup was announced in late August.
As an industry event, the New York Festival is known for launching many of
this fall's arthouse movies; in addition to opener, "Va Savoir," selections
such as "La Cienaga," "Fat Girl," "Mulholland Drive," "Intimacy," and
"Waking Life" will all be released within a few weeks of their NYFF
premieres. Smaller distributors will also be on hand, scouring available
entries for prestige pick-ups: critically praised movies like Manoel de
Oliveira's "I'm Going Home" and Laurent Cantet's "Time Out" are likely targets. As Pena recently told indieWIRE, "I've always believed that if the
beginning and ending of a film's life is at Lincoln Center, we've failed.
I've always believed in getting the work out there."
This year's festival will also host a panel on Making Movies That Matter,
including Oliver Stone and Christopher Hitchens in the discussion, a revival screening of "Night of the Hunter," their annual Views from the Avant-Garde series, with new works from luminaries Stan Brakhage, Robert Beavers, and Nathaniel Dorsky, among others, and an unprecedented collection of 16 short films, highlighted by Candy Kugel's 20 years-in-the-making "InBetweening America," playing before the world premiere of Wes Anderson's "The Royal Tenenbaums." [Anthony Kaufman]
>> Movie Theaters Raise $5 Million for Disaster Relief
(indieWIRE/09.28.01) -- Initial estimates indicate that Tuesday's "Victims
Benefit Day at the Movies" raised more than $5 million for the disaster
relief effort. The benefit united theater owners and film distribution
companies as both entities donated 100% of all Tuesday's ticket and
concessions revenues to the cause. [Eugene Hernandez]
"The members of the motion picture exhibition and distribution industry
continue to recognize and commend the heroic efforts of the individuals
and organizations who have worked so tirelessly in the rescue and relief
operations," commented the National Association of Theater Owners, in a
prepared statement. "We wish to express our sympathy to all those whose
lives were so painfully altered by the terrible events of September 11.
We hope that our contribution can help ease the pain in some small way."
[Eugene Hernandez]
>> IFP Announces Finalists for this Year's Pipedream Script Award
(indieWIRE/09.27.01) -- Five finalists competing for the $10,000 Pipedream
Script Award were announced recently by the Independent Feature Project
(IFP). Sponsored by Annie Schulhof, President of New York-based, Pipedream Productions, the prize recognizes one IFP Market screenwriter whose work is still in development. Along with the cash prize, the winner will also
receive a copy of Final Draft, Inc.'s screenwriting software to assist in
completion of the project.
This year's winner will be revealed during the IFP Market taking place in
Gotham September 30 - October 5. All nominated scripts will be available at
the script library at the IFP Market.
"The opportunity to present this award to an up-and-coming screenwriter is
truly gratifying," commented Schulhof in a prepared statement, who created
the award in memory of her late father. Finalists include Doug Pfeifer
("Golden Boys"); Michael Brophy ("Father Brown"); Maddy Lederman ("The
Little Fraulein"); Rebecca Sonnenshine ("Mermaid Dreams"); and Yaphet L.
Smith ("The Supermarvelous").
New York-based IFP is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting
independent film. [Brian Brooks]
>> YESTERDAY in indieWIRE DAILY NEWS: Screening Room Returns, Academy Donation
(indieWIRE/09.27.01) -- After a more than two-week shutdown following the
tragedy in downtown Manhattan, The Screening Room is re-opening. And, AMPAS President Frank Pierson has announced that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Board of Governors will donate one million dollars to aid the victims of the September 11th tragedy.

That's right! One year. Amazing how time flies. Looking back I find it really wasn't that hard to take on. Just had to set aside the extra time and have the right gear. My commute is just under 15 miles and I do it in (usually) 45 mins. PR is 39 mins.
Winter was the hardest part. Here in Colorado we had some damn cold days. My PR on that was -19 plus whatever the windchill was. That was crazy and I'm not looking forward to that this year. But I'll do. Figuring out the bus schedule to sag out helped. Thin line between being hardcore and being stupid. Got that one wrong once or twice.
Sure there where days I didn't feel up to it but, once I got out there that all went away. To top it all off, I lost over 30 lbs. I started at 217lbs and by the end of the fall I was all the way down to 184lbs.
Anyways, that's my story. Thanks for reading.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Five Portland protesters have locked themselves together and to a cement-filled barrel as they vow to remain in a downtown plaza.
Police said late Saturday that two of the five Occupy Portland protesters are handcuffed to a piece of medal inside the barrel in Terry Schrunk Plaza, which is federal property. The others linked themselves together and to the men in handcuffs by using U-shaped bike locks.
Police say federal officials do not plan enforcement action against the five. The Oregonian reports they were covered in blankets and an American flag late Saturday.
The report of the bound protesters came after police said earlier Saturday night that they received a forwarded email in which the group "The Real Occupy Portland" claimed responsibility for vandalizing two banks.
Windows were broken at a Chase Bank and Wells Fargo Bank branch. Both branches are in northeast Portland.

Sexiest Man contest hits stretch run
The guy who would be the Sexiest Guy Next Door is more tuna than beefcake.
Don't misunderstand – Brad Scott is blessed with a handsome face, broad shoulders and a washboard six-pack.
Those traits helped make the San Juan Capistrano resident one of 12 finalists in the Perry Ellis Search for the Sexiest Guy Next Door, a publicity driven competition that may propel Scott to the runway and give the men's brand a bit of buzz. Voting ends 11:59 p.m. Wednesday; winner to be announced Thursday.
But tuna (the relatively cheap canned variety packed in water; not the fresh-caught steak variety) is one of the reasons Scott stays so fit. And he tells you as much in a grainy homemade video in which he appears shirtless with two cans of tuna and a bottle of yellow mustard. Tuna and mustard, he informs you, is the best diet for a six-pack.
And, somehow, you believe it.
For all that sexiness, Scott comes across in the video and in person as a regular guy with no (or relatively few) pretensions. You know: a guy-next-door kind of guy.
That's another reason why he made the final cut with Perry Ellis.
More than 2,000 applicants signed on for a shot at winning a trip to Miami and modeling in a September fashion show, says Lainee Tarbe, the Perry Ellis spokeswoman for the Sexiest Guy competition.
"We wanted ... a guy next door."
No matter that Scott, 23, doesn't have a clue who lives next door to the well-kept double-wide he shares with colleagues who, like Scott, work the bar at the Swallows Inn. Anyway, he's rarely in enough to be a "guy next door."
"I try to spend the least amount of time indoors as I can."
Scott is too busy working out at the beach or the gym, making his short but glitchy online exercise videos, and photographing nature and female models.
He recently launched his own clothing line – Stripped by Brad Scott – featuring T-shirts made from bamboo and studded with Swarovski crystals he painstakingly applies.
Otherwise, he's working part-time as a bartender's assistant, stocking beer and clearing away glasses.
Or he's helping keep order at the country music-flavored establishment as a security guard.
Or he's getting hit on by 40-something cougars who find him more interesting than line dancing. Every night. Once or twice a night.
"It gets pretty ridiculous," he says, laughing.
Scott laughs often while discussing this Sexy Guy stuff.
A female friend urged him to enter the competition. He didn't know much about Perry Ellis. But after checking the company online he decided he liked the look and, as a guy who likes to travel, loved the idea of South Beach.
"I wanted to go to Miami. Go check out Florida."
The winner can bring a guest, and Scott will take his little sister if he gets that far. She's a nurse and she works too much, he says, and she could use a break.
His older sister, who he says has 6,000 subscribers for her own YouTube tutorials on hair and makeup, posted a video last week to boost her favorite would-be male model.
"Hi my loves, it's Sam. This is so super-duper important," Samantha Schuerman says about her brother's quest. "... Like, oh, my gosh, I would be so excited for him."
A day later, Scott's vote count more than doubled, to 1,990, bumping him to third place for a while.
When he entered high school, the would-be "Sexiest Guy Next Door," stood about 5 feet tall and weighed 105 pounds. Then, he says, over the course of a summer he grew about a foot.
"I got back to school and everyone was like, 'What the hell happened to you?'"
Growth spurt. A painful one, he recalls.
For all that pain, there was the gain that still serves the 6-foot, 180-pound Scott: "Seems like girls notice you more when you're taller and have muscles."
Scott was born in England, where both his parents are from, and traveled back and forth between England and South Lake Tahoe, where he attended school – and got good grades. His mother died when he was 13.
In high school, he also started rigorous exercise routines to build a strong core for freestyle skiing and big-air ski jumping. His interest in extreme sports spread to mountain biking, kite surfing, free diving.
He traveled Europe and Canada for skiing competitions. Nine concussions ended that.
Scott found less harmful work in Hawaii, where he did carpentry for a buddy who paid him $50 an hour. When construction there slowed last year, he moved to San Juan Capistrano to live near his dad.
While in Hawaii he also had more time to indulge in photography, a passion he'd like to turn into a career as a shooter for National Geographic. Scott particularly loves taking pictures underwater, while free diving.
He says he can hold his breath for three minutes.
A few days ago, the guy who would be, like, the sexiest neighbor ever, sat poolside for a local news outlet. Wearing board shorts and no shirt, he attracted the eyes of an older woman lounging nearby.
Kathy Gable, it turned out, had a few questions for Mr. Sexy Neighbor, such as "who are you?" and, more importantly, "where do you live?"
Gable co-manages the complex where Scott is staying, and she'd never seen him before. He hadn't registered with the office when he moved in.
Uh-oh. Could the Sexiest Guy Next Door become the Sexiest Homeless Guy, Like, Ever just in time for the final voting on the Perry Ellis deal?
For now, no.
Gable tells Scott to register. He tells her he plans to move back to Tahoe in a few weeks. She finds out more about the Sexiest Guy Next Door competition.
"He's a good looking guy," Gable says.
Then Lee Gable, Kathy's husband of 40 years, joins her poolside.
"We all used to look like that," he says, looking at Scott.
"You had abs like that," she replies, also looking at Scott.
"I remember."
A half-hour later, when a photographer and videographer finish with Scott, the Gables are ready to go home – and go online and find the Sexiest Guy Next Door contest.
"If he wins by two votes," Kathy Gable says, "it will be us."
Other regular Joe and Jills from Orange County have gotten their 15 minutes of fame (or more) by winning a contest or landing on a reality TV show:
- Newport Beach social worker and "Biggest Loser" contestant Shay Sorrells went home from the show with $52,000 after losing nearly half her body weight (476 pounds when she started). Now she's training for a challenge she accepted from Subway sandwiches to run a marathon with the sandwich chain's pitchman Jared Fogle.
- Rachel Rosales and T.K. Erwin of Huntington Beach claimed a $1 million prize on the CBS reality show "The Amazing Race 12" in 2008. They were the second O.C. team to win the race, joining Chip and Kim McAllister of Coto de Caza, million-dollar winners of "The Amazing Race 5" in 2004.
- Firefighter Mario Cantacessi, who lived in Westminster at the time, was selected as the new Brawny Man from among five finalists. His wife nominated him for the contest to give the paper towel's strong man a new image. Along with seeing his face on a 2003 limited edition run of the paper towels, the Cantacessi's each were awarded a Dodge Durango. And they got a year's supply of Brawny towels.

2012 HAS WORSEN THE PROBLEMS OF THE MEDITERRANEANPublication date: 2013-01-18
The long process of transition that followed the protests of Tahrir square and the fall of Mubarak, had a very negative impact on Egyptian economy in 2012 and nothing or little can be seen in these first weeks of 2013 that gives hope to a future of growth, political stability and to the return of tourism to its pre-revolution levels. The economic scenario in Tunisia seems fragile, with a 2012 that marked a +3% of the GNP compared to an economically disastrous 2011 (the year of the jasmine revolution). The situation of post-Gheddafi Libya is hard to define but its however still chaotic while in Syria the tragedy of a bloody civil war that seems neverending and continues to show its effects, destroying the economy of the Country.

One from Today on the W&OD Trail. First ride on the new bike.
I only got 12 miles in today. I planned to ride more, but did this only 6 miles from home:
Along with the bent shifter, I also bent a pedal pretty badly. I was running late to the breakfast ride, took a corner a little too quickly for the slightly wet conditions, the tires hydroplaned and I went down. I apparently hydroplaned too, because I came out relatively unscathed. I limped the 6 miles home, bought some new pedals later that day, and found someone over in C&V who had a shifter lever they could send me to replace the bent one. (I love BF for stuff like that.) At least I got 12 miles in.
hope you came out better then the bike did!!
Oddly, yes, I did. I performed a perfect belly flop on the blacktop and did a little hydroplaning myself. Barely a scratch. I did sprain my thumb though.
Today's ride was with a buddy, also a Clyde, and his 64cm Calfee Dragonfly Pro. I need to do a lot of work to ever be able to keep up with him.
is that your calfee? if so, tell me about how you like it and the wheels too. I am still wrestling with my next bike and I almost pulled the trigger on a calfee this week, but when i got the total back from them, I stopped. I could have bought a calnago or pinnerrelo for the coin they wanted for a frame ready for DI2. Right this second I am leaning to a ridley noah rs....competitivecyclist is supposed to get a few more instock this year, and keep their current sale price...I suppose we will see.
That is actually my buddies bike. He seems pretty ecstatic with it and the bike is gorgeous. I think he got the frame from Calfee at a pretty great price and had his shop build it up with pretty good discounts so he was less than 10k out the door with SRAM Red.
i tried to make a deal as they were having a "sale" this month...still their base frame out the door, painted, and with DI2 internal wiring was over 3K...and my gut tells me for 3K I can do better with a factory frame.

"Basic Paris Hotel" Ibis Berthier Porte De Clichy Tip by no1birdlady
Ibis Berthier Porte De Clichy, Paris: 1,737 reviews and 2 photos
In 2006 we were on a Cosmos tour. After our plane landed, our first night in Paris was at this hotel. Rooms are small so there's not much room for the suitcases and to move around. But other than that, it was ok. It's far out of the part of downtown Paris where the tourist attractions are located so you have to take the subway to get downtown. There is a nice bakery and grocery and beautiful flower shop on Ave da Clichy which is within walking distance where you can get something to eat and shop. There is a garage here where we boarded our tour bus the next morning. They also provided an excellent breakfast. Since it was included on the tour, I don't know the prices.
Address: 163, Bis Avenue De Clichy, Paris 75017

Has anyone been to dubai? Im hearing mixed reviews.. some people love it others felt really threatened and uneasy there
Has anyone been to dubai? Im hearing mixed reviews.. some people love it others felt really threatened and uneasy there
I'd leave it for now. Why take the risk.
I am a fully fledged member of the Pastafarian Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
We went to Dubai for 5 days a few years ago and we had a ball.
I would certainly have no hesitation in going back there, and hopefully now a lot of the construction work has been completed.
Remember though it is a Muslim country so as long as you don`t do anything to upset the status quo then there`s no need to feel intimidated at all.
Generally it`s a shoppers paradise although alcohol is very expensive.
We went last year for a few nights for our honeymoon.
Whatever you do don't go in august/September it is unbearably hot there and the only reason we wanted to come home was because of that.
All in all had a good time but we stayed at our hotel most the time. We went out on a bus tour one morning and went on a desert safari one evening but apart from that stayed put.
We stayed at The Atlantis so there was no real need to leave the resort.
Hope this helps

It's somewhere I've always really wanted to go. The type of place I wouldn't stay in the hotel grounds for the duration, although I hear the travel companies are pretty much against you leaving the hotels because of the apparently volatile nature of the country.
The laws there are pretty strict and from what I understand outside of hotels it is a 'dry' country?
I'm not entirely sure but I think you can't hold hands or kiss in public. You'd have to make sure you know all the rules before you go.
I am a fully fledged member of the Pastafarian Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
The company our hotel was booked through gave us a whole list of do's and donts. If the holiday company is taking bookings in such a place they should be able to tell you the do's and donts.
It is a lovely place to visit and like slowhand said it is a shoppers paradise. I would have explored more but my husband was a lot more reluctant to.
If it's the type of place you would want to explore the only bit of advice I will give you is just make sure you know the rules before you go.

Obama's Fiscal Fantasyland; Only True Keynesians Still Think We Can Spend Our Way to Prosperity
Byline: Richard W. Rahn, SPECIAL TO THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Irresponsible refers to Congress and the Obama administration - and here's why. For thousands of years, businesses, organizations, governments and even individuals have relied on a basic tool to make sure they do not spend or borrow more than they can service - it is called a budget. Yet, for the first time since 1974, when the current rules were put into effect, the U.S. House of Representatives does not intend to pass a budget resolution. The main purpose of the budget resolution is to set discretionary spending caps for the coming fiscal year.
Without a budget resolution, members of Congress are, in essence, able to spend as much money as they wish, subject only to the limitation of getting half plus one of the other members to go along with the spending proposal. The budget procedure was put in place to make sure members of Congress would not spend money as irresponsibly as many teenagers might if they were given unlimited credit cards. If teenagers were in charge of the federal budget, we might end up with a $1.5 trillion deficit this year. Ah, but we are going to have a $1.5 trillion deficit this year - and who's in charge?
In the face of the unprecedented congressional spending binge, President Obama has been asking Congress to spend even more. Not content with actively promoting the eventual bankruptcy of the United States, Mr. Obama is urging foreign leaders also to increase their government spending - which is truly bizarre. Look at the facts. All of the major European countries have been increasing government spending and deficits at unsustainable rates. The talk for the past couple of months has been about which countries would follow Greece in going over the financial cliff. Responsible economists, financial leaders and, most important, the markets have been telling European leaders they must cut government spending. Over the past couple of weeks, a number of those leaders have responsibly and courageously come forth with real spending-reduction programs. Britain's new government, despite being a coalition government, has proposed a 25 percent cut in most government departments. Can you imagine the howls from Congress and the U.S. news media if a U.S. president proposed even a 5 percent cut, though a far larger one is needed?
Mr. Obama increasingly appears to be living in a fiscal fantasyland. In his letter to the Group of 20 on June 18, the president wrote: My administration will cut the budget deficit we inherited in half by FY 2013 and work to reduce our fiscal deficit to 3 percent of [gross domestic product] by FY 2015.. The president already has put forward two budgets, including projections for the next decade, but they contain no specifics for reaching such a goal. …

By Joshua Cole Little
LUBBOCK, TX--- Local farmers are thankful and taking advantage of the above average rainfall totals. Many farmers are hopeful for a much better harvest this year, but some say they still have a long way to go.
So far the Lubbock area has recieved 11.18 inches of rain this year and 2.45 from the month of July. Farmers say compared to recent years, the difference is "like night and day" being able to successfully grow cotton.
Many farmers who had to add crops like sorgum to make up for losses were able to grow all cotton again this year.
But even with rain averages above average -- farmers say they could still use more.
"We're going to need a good open fall. We've got the potential, we just need mother nature to cooperate and give us that good open fall. And good harvesting conditions and good maturing conditions," says Dr. Mark Kelley with Texas A&M Agrilife Research Center.
Many farmers are already starting to see some of their crops bloom.They say depending on weather, this year has the potential to see the best crop in the last 3 years.

Target Club Pick: May 2015
Passion, redemption, and a battered suitcase full of secrets: the New York Times-bestselling author of A Hundred Summers returns with another engrossing tale.
Manhattan, 1964. Vivian Schuyler, newly graduated from Bryn Mawr College, has recently defied the privilege of her storied old Fifth Avenue family to do the unthinkable for a budding Kennedy-era socialite: break into the Mad Men world of razor-stylish Metropolitan magazine. But when she receives a bulky overseas parcel in the mail, the unexpected contents draw her inexorably back into her family's past, and the hushed-over crime passionnel of an aunt she never knew, whose existence has been wiped from the record of history.
As the iridescent and fractured Vivian digs deeper into her aunt's past and the mystery of her ultimate fate, Violet's story of determination and desire unfolds, shedding light on the darkness of her years abroad . . . and teaching Vivian to reach forward with grace for the ambitious future––and the love––she wants most.

The increased microbial resistance that frequently follows exposure to an antibiotic has generally been considered to be characteristic of the antibiotic itself and not to entail increased resistance to other antibiotics. This viewpoint has been challenged recently by a number of investigators, whose studies have yielded information that may prove of considerable clinical importance and experimental interest.
Preliminary observations1 indicated that acquired resistance to terramycin was accompanied by decreased sensitivity to aureomycin and that acquired resistance to aureomycin or to chloramphenicol was accompanied by cross resistance to the other agent and to terramycin. Since then, several extensive studies on cross resistance among antibiotics have been reported. Kaipainen2 from the department of serology and bacteriology of the University of Helsinki cultured 27 different bacterial strains in increasing concentrations of aureomycin, chloramphenicol, terramycin, dihydrostreptomycin, and penicillin. After the resistance of the bacteria to the primary antibiotic was increased, simultaneous changes

1932 Pierce-Arrow Model 54 news, pictures, specifications, and information
Club Brougham
Pierce started producing automobiles in Buffalo in 1901, and quickly became one of America's most prestigious makes in the early 20th century. It made a name for itself when its Great Arrows dominated the Glidden Tours, an early road rally series. Pierce-Arrow and other luxury stalwarts, Packard and Peerless, became collectively known as the 'Three P's of Motordom.'
However, by the mid 1920's Pierce was not keeping up with other makers, and its most powerful engine was a 6-cylinder design. By 1928, the company was bought by Studebaker, and with the resulting infusion of capital was able to develop a new line of cars and powertrains. In 1929 a new 8-cylinder engine was introduced and customers responded by rewarding Pierce-Arrow with its highest sales year to date. 'Pierce' was back in a big way, and the models of the 1930's are some of the best of the classic era. However, the economic chaos of the time caught up with Pierce-Arrow, and it was sold again in 1933. Production began to wind down and ceased for good in 1938.
The Pierce-Arrow featured is a Model 54 Club Brougham with a 125 horsepower, 8-cylinder engine. This model sports classic Pierce-Arrow styling with its fender mounted lights and 'V' shaped grill. The close-coupled Club Brougham style typifies the illustrious nature of this marque.
Pierce-Arrow sales of all models numbered only 2,152 units, nearly 1,000 less than the company's break even point.
The Pierce Arrow is one of the great early American automotive producers. Their first offering was the Great Arrow, followed by such greats as the 36, 48, and 66. Their cars were renowned for their quality, durability and style. Their massive engines easily carried the stately bodies in luxury and comfort. The 1920's were rough for the Pierce Arrow Company. The company had been content with their style and their engines. As a result, did not keep up with the changing market trends and new inventions. Before long, they were offering outdated engines and finding it hard to compete.
By 1928 the Pierce-Arrow Company had changed ownerships to Mr. Albert R. Erskine, the President of Studebaker. Under his direction, new engines, features and bodies were introduced. By 1929, the company had regained momentum and had sold nearly 10,000 vehicles that year. The Great Depression was a difficult time for many businesses, even Pierce-Arrow.
In 1931 Pierce-Arrow added a V-12 engine to their offerings.
In 1933 Phil Wright was tasked with creating a new design. The resulting vehicle was shown at the 1933 New York Auto Show and Chicago where it received high praise from spectators and press. Development began on the Silver Arrow and offered for sale at $10,000, a rather high sticker price at the time. This would prove to be too high for consumers and only five were ever created. The new design was important in that it propagated to the rest of the Pierce-Arrow models. The styling was popular and the company's prospects began to rise once again. Their prosperity was short-lived and by 1938 the company was out of business.

This Model 54 Brougham has the original top, original interior, and 90% of the chrome is original. The exterior has been repainted. The previous owner held the car for 54 years before selling it to the present owner a couple of years ago.
An in-line, 8-cylinder, 366 cubic inch engine developing 125 horsepower powers the car. The 1932 model year was the first to offer V-12 engines.
The car rests on a 137-inch wheelbase, weighs 4,747 pounds and sold for $2,850. A total of 2,481 vehicles were produced in 1932.
Dual Windshield Phaeton
An Intimate and Luxurious Sport Sedan
Pierce started producing automobiles in Buffalo in 1901, and quickly became one of America's most prestigious makes in the early 20th century. It made a name for itself when its Great Arrows dominated the Glidden Tours, an early road rally series. Pierce-Arrow and other luxury stalwarts, Packard and Peerless, became collectively known as the 'Three P's of Motordom.'
However, by the mid 1920's Pierce was not keeping up with other makers, and its most powerful engine was a 6-cylinder design. By 1928, the company was bought by Studebaker, and with the resulting infusion of capital was able to develop a new line of cars and powertrains. In 1929 a new 8-cylinder engine was introduced and customers responded by rewarding Pierce-Arrow with its highest sales year to date. 'Pierce' was back in a big way, and the models of the 1930's are some of the best of the classic era. However, the economic chaos of the time caught up with Pierce-Arrow, and it was sold again in 1933. Production began to wind down and ceased for good in 1938.
The Pierce-Arrow featured is a Model 54 Club Brougham with a 125 horsepower, 8-cylinder engine. This model sports classic Pierce-Arrow styling with its fender mounted lights and 'V' shaped grill. The close-coupled Club Brougham style typifies the illustrious nature of this marque.

There are period features such as a correct cluster-type taillight and a pair of chrome-plated external horns. The car has less than 87,000 miles. The engine is a 366 cubic-inch, side-valve eight-cylinder engine delivering 125 horsepower. There is a four-speed manual transmission and four-wheel servo-assisted mechanical drum brakes.

Dual Windshield Phaeton
In 1865, Pierce Arrow was founded in Buffalo, New York as a diversified manufacturer. The first car was built in 1901 and in 1903, Pierce introduced a bigger car called the Arrow. This led to then Great Arrow with cast aluminum body panels on a 93 inch wheelbase and helped build Pierce's great reputation by winning the first five prestigious Glidden Tours.
Beginning in 1909, Pierce-Arrow became known as the car of Presidents when President Taft used one for official occasions. This practice continued until the last Pierces were ordered in 1935. In 1914, Pierce-Arrow introduced integral fender headlamps as an option which became the most recognized design cue for Pierce-Arrows for the rest of the company's history.
The Model 54 body was built by Pierce-Arrow, but designed by coachbuilder Brunn. It rides on a 137 inch wheelbase chassis and is powered by a 366 cubic-inch straight 8-cylinder engine producing 125 horsepower. The car weighed 4,747 lbs and sold for $2,850. Pierce built 2,482 cars in 1932. This body has roll-up windows in the front and side curtains for the rear compartment. A second windshield shields the rear passengers from the wind.
This car was owned by noted San Antonio artist, S.P. Stevens for many years before selling it to aerospace engineering pioneer and inventor, Dee Howard. This car is the last of only 19 of this body style produced by Pierce-Arrow in 1932.
Convertible Sedan
The Convertible Sedan offered the comfort of a sedan with the option of putting the top down. The center door posts have a removable section, and once the top is lowered, it becomes a full convertible. This all-weather design was a practical option for a vehicle in daily use. This example features the V-12 engine displacing 429 cubic-inches and offering 150 horsepower.

Club Brougham
The Pierce-Arrow Company had been launched in 1901 and by the late 1920s was experiencing financial difficulties in a changing marketplace. The company merged with Studebaker in 1928 and the results showed up in improved mechanics and styling. The merger had its benefits but by 1931, sales were in decline, as was the entire American luxury automobile market.
Nevertheless, Pierce-Arrow continued to offer high quality motorcars. For 1932, the company introduced a V-12 motor in addition to its in-line eight. The Model 54 was built on a 137-inch wheelbase chassis and was powered by a 125 horsepower eight.
This Pierce-Arrow is unique in that it remains in unrestored condition. It has been maintained over the years, but never restored. It has 90-percent of its original paint and its original mascot and emblems.
This car is recognized as a

It's an amazing story of survivalReon Schutte is a former South African Special Forces soldier who survived 13 years in a POW camp.
While there, he developed cancerand just wrote a book about it.
The author of "Set Yourself Free," spoke with ABC7, saying that the largest lesson he learned from his struggles in the Zimbabwe camp was that "it doesn't matter what happens to us in life, it's how we react to what happens to us in life."
Schutte addresses the importance of letting go and making a choice to not be a "prisoner" to the circumstances that challenge you in life.

For a few days (at least since last Saturday) regular unleaded gas at the Safeway in Natomas sat at $3.91, after going as high as $4.22. I was hoping it would continue to drop, but today I noticed it had gone back up. Just 4 cents…but hey, every penny counts! Ugh!
It's getting better, just check out my post from Thursday (4/5).
I'm hopeful. Extremely hopeful!
Driving by Safeway on Del Paso Road in Natomas today, I actually thought these prices weren't bad! Keep in mind, a couple of weeks ago regular unleaded was as high as $4.22. Maybe even higher! Argh!

"Monticello, in Charlottesville, Virginia" Monticello Estates by butterflykizzez04
Monticello Estates Travel Guide: 10 reviews and 20 photos
(Born April 13, 1743, at Shadwell, Virginia; died July 4, 1826, Monticello)
Thomas Jefferson -- author of the Declaration of Independence and the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom, third president of the United States, and founder of the University of Virginia -- voiced the aspirations of a new America as no other individual of his era. As public official, historian, philosopher, and plantation owner, he served his country for over five decades.
His father Peter Jefferson was a successful planter and surveyor and his mother Jane Randolph a member of one of Virginia's most distinguished families. Having inherited a considerable landed estate from his father, Jefferson began building Monticello when he was twenty-six years old. Three years later, he married Martha Wayles Skelton, with whom he lived happily for ten years until her death. Their marriage produced six children, but only two survived to adulthood. Jefferson, who never remarried, maintained Monticello as his home throughout his life, always expanding and changing the house.
Jefferson inherited slaves from both his father and father-in-law. In a typical year, he owned about 200, almost half of them under the age of sixteen. About eighty of these lived at Monticello; the others lived on adjacent Albemarle County plantations, and on his Poplar Forest estate in Bedford County, Virginia. Jefferson freed two slaves in his lifetime and five in his will and chose not to pursue two others who ran away. All were members of the Hemings family; the seven he eventually freed were skilled tradesmen.
Having attended the College of William and Mary, Jefferson practiced law and served in local government as a magistrate, county lieutenant, and member of the House of Burgesses in his early professional life. As a member of the Continental Congress, he was chosen in 1776 to draft the Declaration of Independence, which has been regarded ever since as a charter of American and universal liberties. The document proclaims that all men are equal in rights, regardless of birth, wealth, or status, and that the government is the servant, not the master, of the people.
After Jefferson left Congress in 1776, he returned to Virginia and served in the legislature. Elected governor from 1779 to 1781, he suffered an inquiry into his conduct during his last year in office that, although finally fully repudiated, left him with a life-long pricklishness in the face of criticism.
It was Jefferson's wish that his tomb stone reflect the things that he had given the people, not the things that the people had given to him. It is for this reason that Thomas Jefferson's epitaph reads:
During the brief private interval in his life following his governorship, Jefferson wrote Notes on the State of Virginia. In 1784, he entered public service again, in France, first as trade commissioner and then as Benjamin Franklin's successor as minister. During this period, he avidly studied European culture, sending home to Monticello, books, seeds and plants, statues and architectural drawings, scientific instruments, and information.
In 1790 he accepted the post of secretary of state under his friend George Washington. His tenure was marked by his opposition to the pro-British policies of Alexander Hamilton. In 1796, as the presidential candidate of the Democratic Republicans, he became vice-president after losing to John Adams by three electoral votes.
Four years later, he defeated Adams and became president, the first peaceful transfer of authority from one party to another in the history of the young nation. Perhaps the most notable achievements of his first term were the purchase of the Louisiana Territory in 1803 and his support of the Lewis and Clark expedition. His second term, a time when he encountered more difficulties on both the domestic and foreign fronts, is most remembered for his efforts to maintain neutrality in the midst of the conflict between Britain and France; his efforts did not avert war with Britain in 1812.
- Pros:Beautiful Estate and Very Historical
- Cons:On top of a mountain...lol
- In a nutshell:If you love History, check out Monticello. Jefferson was very important!!

The creation of Bell products is rooted in one's need for support. In the mid-1990s, Nick Jerch was dealing with a health issue. Like many people as they age, he had discomfort. He tried everything, but what finally gave him comfort was a dietary supplement he read about. At the time he was very skeptical, but he gave this natural supplement a chance and he realized he was feeling healthy!*
He was surprised that something could be natural and yet so effective, but most people didn't even know about it. Aware of many friends and acquaintances that needed relief as he did, Nick offered them the product to try and to his delight they were helped as well. Nick felt that he was really on to something and he knew it would be very important to tell others about it!*
That led to the first newspaper advertisements, and set the stage for a company with a purpose of helping people attain better quality of life with dietary supplements. In the following years, many products have been added and we hear from people every day telling us about their stories of success and happiness. Nick jokes that having discomfort himself was a lucky thing that allowed him in turn to help hundreds of thousands of people. Helping people, he says, gives him great satisfaction in his life. Today Bell products are sold around the world.*
