"13 Hours" Actors Talk Bay, Benghazi Cast members of the film "13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi" spoke out about the director of the flick - Michael Bay.
Michael Bay Film Tells Story Of Benghazi Attack SurvivorsA powerful film tells the true story of six elite ex-military operators who fought back against overwhelming odds in the September 11, 2012, attack on an American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya.

Opinion: Susan Rice Thrown Under Democrat's Bus And Tied DownIt is becoming more and more clear that it was liberal-leaning politicians who threw her under the bus and they are also the ones who are keeping her under the bus.
Opinion: Susan Rice's Meeting With GOP Leaders Made Benghazi Matters WorseNow that the Obama White House and senior intelligence officials have reportedly admitted that they approved Susan Rice's inaccurate talking points about the Benghazi terrorist attack being the reaction to a protest about a film rather than a terrorist attack, the investigation must go on.
Opinion: If Obama Is Impeached Over Benghazi ScandalMounting questions are being asked about Benghazi, which could lead to the Oval Office. If it is found that President Barack Obama lied about not knowing that the attack was a terrorist attack the nation could very likely repeat the events of Nixon's resignation.
Opinion: Why Do The Liberals Keep Complaining?Liberals and their ilk obviously won the executive branch of the United States government for another four years with the reelection of President Barack Obama, but they still pick fights as much as they did before the election – if not more.
Opinion: Why Benghazi MattersAs the politicians on the "left" and other persons on the political "left" insist that the election is over and that is why the rest of Americans should move on and drop the Benghazi, Libya controversy, those "leftists" need to understand exactly why the truth about the Benghazi terrorist attack needs to come out.

Acapulco Favorite Tips by gkitzmil
Acapulco General: 30 reviews and 27 photos

Fondest memory: I believe Acapulco has the capacity to deliver a number of experiences to the visitor but not the beaches of a Cancun. I was 110% happy with my trip and will eagerly go back. I wanted total relaxation in 'Real Mexico.' I was happy I stayed in Caletilla beach, the old original Acapulco so that I could speak Spanish and relax. My chosen hotel, the Boca Chica is moderately priced and while a bit outdated in furnishings it is excellently located with a view of the beach, the bay, and clear out to the Ocean. It also is on a point so that I was literally surrounded by water!
I did not want to pay the $100 - $300 payed by many tourists at the 'big name' hotels for a nearly US experience on a bay beach that is dangerous. Caletilla is the safest and most sloped beach in Aca.
Others will find the nightlife of Aca' fun -- but I did not go for that. I did not even check out the clubs. If I wanted a good margarita they had great ones at the open air restaurant and bar at the hotel.
Favorite thing:  RELAX!!!
 I realize many people go to Acapulco for the Discos and the nightlife. I went to sit on the pay, gazing into the Ocean, and relax! I also went because for about one-half the price of what others pay I had a nice room (not fancy), a great view, and wonderful food. I also made great new friends who will take care of you (hotel and restaurant) if you want to go!

The Point of Acupuncture
January 7, 2013
Eastern therapy of acupuncture gains mainstream acceptance.
Eastern therapy of acupuncture gains mainstream acceptance.
Dana: Now we have Hillarys campaign manager accusing pro-Trump Russians for releasing these e mails just before the democratic convention. Then accusing Trump of playing dirty games and being unethical about it. Talk about shooting the messenger. It doesnt matter who delivered the information. It is apparently true, so what is the problem? Mook doesnt deny that it happened, just that people found out about it. That is pretty sad from a political party. I am sure that Hillary will plummet in the polls once again. Of course Hillary supporters dont care what has happened. They will remain just as oblivious as they always are.

The National Law Journal lists Cardozo among the top 50 schools with the highest percentage of 2015 graduates in what the publication describes as the "gold standard for lawyer jobs." The New York Law Journal says, "Cardozo Law Dean Melanie Leslie attributed the improving fortunes of its graduates to a 'top-to-bottom' review of its placement strategies as well as reviewing where growth is occurring in the New York legal market. 'The key has been understanding the job market and providing the right information and connections to our graduates,' Leslie said."

China Economic Quarterly
December 9, 2011
By: Erica S. Downs
Editor's Note: The following article originally appeared in China Economic Quarterly, a publication by Dragonomics Research and Advisory.
Since 2009, China Development Bank (CDB) has extended lines of credit totaling almost US$75 bn to national energy companies and government entities in Brazil, Ecuador, Russia, Turkmenistan and Venezuela. The loans are secured by revenue earned from the sale of oil to China's national oil companies (NOCs), except in the case of Turkmenistan, which is delivering natural gas. These energy-backed loans are distinguished by their large size (up to US$21 bn), long terms (up to 20 years), the relatively short period of time in which they were made (less than two years), and their initial availability during the global financial crisis, when virtually no other financial institutions were willing to lend such large amounts of capital for such long periods of time.
Many outside observers explicitly or implicitly assumed that these deals are the work of China Inc: China's government, state-owned banks and NOCs operating as a coherent entity on a global pursuit of energy. In this view, CDB and the NOCs are merely arms of state policy, implementing a strategy devised by Beijing to secure oil and natural gas around the world.
To be sure, CDB, the Chinese government and the NOCs worked closely together to structure and execute these transactions. But this coordination between Beijing and Chinese enterprises must be understood in the context of two important caveats. First, each of the participants had its own objectives, including profitability. Second, coordination is not synonymous with top-down decision making. Cross-border deals, even ones that advance the strategic goals of the Chinese government, can originate with different actors. As a result, CDB's energy-backed loans are better understood as the result of a converging flow of interests rather than as the execution of a state master plan.
China's Global Bank
CDB is a wholly state-owned bank which aims to support and profit from government policy objectives at home and abroad, including securing energy to fuel China's economic rise. CDB was established in 1994 to finance domestic infrastructure and strategic industries, with the aim of breaking the bottlenecks in energy, natural resources and transportation created by rapid economic growth. After 2000, Beijing's concerns about shortages of commodities such as oil and iron ore, and its "going out" policy of encouraging enterprises to secure energy, build national champions and acquire advanced technology abroad, paved the way for CDB to internationalize its operations. CDB has bankrolled the overseas investments of China's energy and mining firms, and financed the construction of oil and natural gas pipelines from Central Asia, Russia and Myanmar to China. It also provided credit to foreign energy and mining companies, especially those which offered Chinese firms long-term supply agreements, upstream equity positions or equipment manufacturing contracts.

What is in this article?:
- US consumers hazy on olive oil
- Flavor is primary
- The olive oil industry in the United States is experiencing a renaissance, but consumers still more information.
Flavor is primary
Flavor was the primary reason for selecting olive oil over other oils, according to 80 percent of the survey respondents. The survey coordinators noted that this result is significant, because earlier studies have indicated that two-thirds of the top-selling olive oil brands analyzed by the UC Davis Olive Center were found to have rancidity and other defects. The researchers suggest that consumers may be developing an affinity for substandard flavors, and that olive oil producers would be well advised to develop strategies for introducing more consumers to the flavor of high-quality extra virgin olive oils.
Eighty percent of the respondents also indicated that they chose olive oil as a healthier alternative to other oils and fats. Because of the importance of health benefits to consumers, olive oil producers may want to conduct research on the comparative healthfulness of the various grades of olive oil, survey coordinators suggested.
When asked to describe desirable olive oil flavor, nearly 80 percent of the respondents agreed that "fresh" was a good descriptor — which is in sync with industry standards. However, the terms "fruity," "peppery" and "grassy" — also common terms use to describe high-quality olive oil — did not resonate with most of the survey respondents. These findings suggest that olive oil producers might want to highlight freshness over other lesser-understood terms in their packaging and marketing efforts.
Flynn collaborated on the survey and report with lead researcher Selina C. Wang, research director for the UC Davis Olive Center, and Ben Moscatello, a senior business analyst and alumnus of the UC Davis Graduate School of Management.
The UC Davis Olive Center was founded in 2008 as the first university-based olive research and education center in North America. As a self-funded university center, it continues the university's century-old effort to assist California's olive producers and processors as their industry enters a renaissance, with novel farming techniques and rising consumer interest in olive oil and table olives. The center's collaborative efforts have produced research in food chemistry, mechanical harvesting, olive fruit fly control, olive processing and sensory evaluation of olive oil. This research provides opportunities for graduate students to receive scientific training and earn advanced degrees.

[/quote]What transpired that successfully got you up and off the street? Was it because the police showed up, the neighbor witnesses watching him, he came to his senses and left or what?
a little bit of all of the above, neighbors saw and hear what was going on and called the police, police showed up he snapped back to reality.
in the police report, they were already responding to a shots fired call in the area... so trust me when i say that when they showed up, they came out guns drawn. (according to the police report i obtained)

Woman jailed on chase chargesFebruary 13,2013An Oregon woman who allegedly led police on a high speed chase on Route 7 Monday was ordered not to drive under conditions imposed during her arraignment Tuesday.
Margaret A. Perry, 55, pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court to misdemeanor charges of attempting to elude police and careless or negligent operation of a motor vehicle.
Judge Theresa DiMauro set bail at $1,500 for Perry, who lives in Portland, Ore. She is expected to post that amount today, according to court records. The judge also ordered Perry not to drive any motor vehicle.
Rutland Police said that Perry was stopped Monday on North Main Street after she was clocked driving 13 mph over the posted 35 mph speed limit.
During the stop, Police Lt. Kevin Geno said Perry confronted him and told him repeatedly to use his gun to shoot her.
She then allegedly climbed back into her rental car and drove north on Route 7 at speeds exceeding 80 mph. Geno said he decided not to pursue Perry over the slick roads. She was later found in her vehicle parked off Furnace Road in Pittsford.MORE IN This Just In

I'm currently working on my new website and your extension will really help me :)
Trying to activate it, I've got the same error every time :

I desactivated each extension in order to see if one of these was the problem, but it did not change anything.
Did you test it with my WP version?

Metro Briefing | New Jersey: Trenton: Dunbar Wants To Stay
Col. Carson J. Dunbar has reiterated his desire to stay on as superintendent of the New Jersey State Police, even though Governor-elect James E. McGreevey has vowed to replace him. Colonel Dunbar, left, the 12th superintendent of the state police, recently signed a contract extension that runs through Nov. 1, 2003. He said he wanted to remain in office until then so he can carry out the changes he started. State officials said Colonel Dunbar's contract extension is not binding on Mr. McGreevey, who has said he wants to name his own superintendent. But state law allows Colonel Dunbar to remain until the State Senate approves a successor.

Hurricane Sandy - Need a new car[ Edited ]
11-24-2012 08:57 PM - edited 11-24-2012 08:59 PM
So long story short, I lost my car (and pretty much everything else) in the recent hurricane. It was a 2010 Kia Forte Koup and I still had a loan out on it for ~13k. Luckily, I had equity in the car and the insurance company paid the loan off and left me with ~$3,500 for my next down payment. I needed to return my rental last Friday so I've been without a car and relying on others to get to work, not really doing anything else (socially), trying to get everything back together, etc etc.
Anyway, now I'm nervous about going through this entire process again. Recently, I've been irresponsible with applications for credit cards and got a little crazy (I know, shame shame). My history (3+ years ago) isn't too good (a few lates and one discharge - all settled over almost 2 years ago - dumb college mistakes). My utilization is currently about 40% of all available credit (will go down to about 30% this week - total credit of about $11,500 with $4,500 owed - I know this is high but one of them ($2,000) is 0% interest).
My question is, do I need to wait until my auto loan is shown as PIF on my credit report? My old loan was through Wells Fargo FYI and it was my first auto loan (by myself!).
Here's some info:
Credit scores: (from July 2012)
I'm nervous to check them again because I don't think they would have really changed since then and myfico is so expensive!
Annual income: $52,000
Any advice/help is appreciated. I am really overwhelmed with everything.
Edit - I'm looking at the Dodge Dart Limited for $25,000 (hopefully I can get the dealer down to $22,500)

About meI think I may die someday under a pile of books, movies, and music. I've set a personal goal every year since 2006 to read a minimum of 52 books every year, and it's been going pretty well. Somehow I still have several hundred unread books to my name, however. Funny how every time one goes out, another two come back in.

Mo Ibrahim Group Decides Not to Award African Prize
The Mo Ibrahim Foundation decided not to award an African leadership prize for the second straight year and said most nations on the continent are failing to match developmental gains with improved security.
The decision not to pick a winner of the $5 million prize was taken by a seven-member panel headed by former Tanzanian Prime Minister Salim Ahmed Salim, according to an e-mailed statement today. Previous winners include former presidents Joaquim Chissano of Mozambique and Festus Mogae of Botswana.
While 46 of 52 African countries improved their scores on the Ibrahim Index of African Governance since 2000, 20 advanced when it came to safety and upholding the rule of law, according to the annual assessment. The London-based foundation was started in 2006 by Mo Ibrahim, 67, the billionaire founder of telecommunications company Celtel International BV.
"The findings highlight widespread improvements across the continent," Ibrahim wrote in a forward to the report. "Average scores in the safety and rule of law category have declined. If this deterioration is not turned around it could signal an era where, despite fewer regional conflicts, we will see an increase in domestic social unrest."
Mauritius retained its position as Africa's best-governed country in the index, which measures performance for 2012. Botswana was second, followed by Cape Verde, Seychelles and South Africa. Somalia scored the lowest, followed by the Democratic Republic of Congo, Eritrea, the Central African Republic and Chad. Ninety-four percent of people in Africa now live in a country that has demonstrated overall governance improvement since 2000, Ibrahim said.
Declining Safety
The assessment, released for the seventh consecutive year, uses data from 32 independent, external sources to gauge factors including the extent to which human rights and economic stability are upheld.
Africa-focused funds are increasingly incorporating the assessment into their investment decision-making process, as evidenced by its inclusion in Barclays Plc's latest emerging markets focus report, Elizabeth McGrath, the index's director, said by phone from London.
Eighteen countries were accorded their best-ever index score for overall governance last year, with Liberia, Angola and Sierra Leone posting the biggest improvements. Conditions deteriorated most in Madagascar, Eritrea and Guinea Bissau.
A measure of human development on the continent rose an average 10.2 index points, while a gauge of sustainable economic opportunities gained 5.6 points and one for participation and human rights advanced 3.2 points. The measure for safety and the rule of law slid 1.1 points.
Countries have become increasingly interested in their rankings, with officials from Rwanda, Senegal and Djibouti approaching the foundation to get a better understanding of how they can utilize the index in their decision-making, Sophie Masipa, the foundation's head of communications, said by phone from London.
Sudanese-born Ibrahim started Celtel in 1998 and built it into Africa's third-largest mobile phone company. Zain, Kuwait's largest mobile-phone provider, previously known as Mobile Telecommunications Co., bought 85 percent of Celtel for $3.4 billion in 2005.

Welcome to the nation's premier single-region wine and food event!
The 9th annual Virginia Wine Expo (VWE) is a national destination event celebrating Virginia's and Italy's extraordinary wines and the Richmond region's culinary excellence.
Join us and learn why TRAVEL+LEISURE magazine and NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC just put Richmond ("RVA") on their respective international lists of 'Best Places to Travel' (for amazing food, craft beverages and more) in 2016 in part because of its burgeoning art, food and craft beverage scene. Read all about it here and here.
You'll have an opportunity to meet the owners and winemakers behind Virginia's emergence as a major international wine destination and enjoy dozens of events, including the legendary Walk-Around Grand Tastings, where you can taste and buy more than 450 bottles of Virginia wine and taste 150+ bottles of wine from the 2016 Guest Region of Italy!
RVA LOVES R&J Festival Pairs Perfectly With the Expo
For those passionate about wine and opera - specifically Romeo and Juliet - we have the perfect pairing for you: The VWE and the RVA LOVES R&J Festival! RVA Loves R&J Festival (February 12-February 21, 2016) is anchored by major productions of Romeo & Juliet by Virginia Opera and Richmond Ballet and takes place in Richmond at the same time as the Expo. The transformative power of ballet and opera will provide provocative insight into this timeless love story.
Complete your Virginia Wine Expo experience with RVA Loves R&J and your February in Richmond will be the month to celebrate with the ones you love. Experience a perfect pairing: The Virginia Wine Expo and Romeo and Juliet!
The Walk-Around Grand Tastings and Other Signature Events
In addition to the extremely popular Walk-Around Grand Tastings, this year's event schedule is packed with exceptional wine and food experiences that will highlight many of the chefs and restaurants behind RVA's emergence as a foodie destination. For example, you'll enjoy Burger Blast presented by Richmond magazine, featuring 20+ artisan-made burgers, 35+ bottles of Virginia wine, 35+ craft beers and live music. The Burger Blast has sold out three years in a row.
A new event on Saturday night called SMOKED!, which will be held at the beautiful and historic Dominion Arts Center (formerly Richmond CenterStage), will feature smoked (and some not smoked) meats, fowl and seafood (from some of RVA's world-class pit-masters), select Virginia and Italian wine, select Virginia craft beer and cider, and top-shelf Virginia, Kentucky, Irish and Scottish whiskey. This event will be amazing!
Other events, such as The Founders's Dinner With Gary York at Enoteca Sogno, David Dunlap's New American Dinner at the Quirk Hotel's Maple & Pine, the Quintessential Southern Lunch at Julep's New Southern Cuisine, and many more, will captivate your palate and enlighten your understanding of Virginia's fine wines and Richmond's extraordinary cuisine.
Come join us for an incomparable wine and food experience and take home some Virginia wine. Nowhere else in the nation can you taste and buy as many Virginia wines as you can at the Virginia Wine Expo.
Richmond Wins Accolades as a Wine, Craft Beer and Culinary Destination
Named one of the top 14 worldwide destinations in 2014 by Frommer's, Richmond ("RVA") is centrally located in a state boasting more than 255 wineries and 120 craft breweries (13 in Richmond alone with more to come, including Stone Brewing's massive new brewery in Greater Fulton set to open in the late Spring of 2016).
RVA's rapid rise as a newly emerging wine, culinary and dining destination has gotten widespread attention. For example, in July of 2015, Wine Enthusiast magazine ranked Richmond number one on its list of a "Foodie's 5 must-see wine country destinations" in the nation. Also, that same month Conde Nast Traveler named RVA "The Southern Food Destination You Need to Know About".
A recent poll of USA TODAY'S readers, released in August of 2014, ranked Virginia as one of the top ten favorite wine regions in the world. And CNN recently chose Richmond as one of its 7 up-and-coming foodie destinations in the U.S.
At the Expo you'll learn why RVA has become a culinary hot spot. In fact, Colman Andrews, co-founder of the "gastronomic bible" Saveur magazine, recently named Richmond the "next great American food city". Also, in September of 2014, the U.S. News & World Report Travel pronounced Richmond one of the "8 Under-the-Radar Foodie Cities" in the world, along with other cities such as Hong Kong, Bologna, Italy, Melbourne, Australia, Montreal, Canada and several others.
More than 30 local, up-and-coming and award-winning chefs will present their delicious fare at various events that are part of the Expo. They represent some of the best RVA has to offer, boasting incredibly inventive, fresh and artisan cuisine that celebrates the passion these restaurateurs have for great food.
About the Guest Region™ of Italy
The VWE highlights Virginia wine. However, starting in 2014, the VWE introduced a new concept called the "Guest Region". The Guest Region is a national (U.S.) or international wine region that will be featured in various components of the VWE to act as a "foil" for Virginia and help keep the event as fresh and exciting as possible. The Guest Region will rotate to a different region of the world on an annual basis.
In 2016, the Guest Region will be the extraordinarily diverse wine region of Italy!
The Guest Region gives the VWE an opportunity to compare Virginia wines to a different region of the world each year. You'll notice Italian wine at many of the events on the schedule, including but not limited to some of the seminars, the Walk-Around Grand Tastings, and SMOKED!
In short, the Guest Region is being introduced to help keep the VWE new, fun and exciting every year. Hopefully, this will encourage you to attend the Expo every year as well!
About How and Why the Virginia Wine Expo® Was Founded
In early 2007, local entrepreneur, lawyer, and self-described foodie and wine lover, Alex Papajohn, was fed up with travelling back and forth to Washington, D.C. to satisfy his desire to enjoy a classy, major indoor wine and food event during the winter. The drive was a pain, parking was expensive, and the ticket prices were excessive — considering the mediocre quality of the wine and food. He couldn't understand why Richmond, his hometown, didn't have its own signature winter wine event.
Finally, on a lark, in mid-January of 2007, Alex picked up the phone and called the head of the Virginia Wine Board, who, at the time, was William Moses. Alex pitched Mr. Moses on an idea: Would the Virginia Wine Board be interested in supporting a major international wine event, which would highlight Virginia wine, held during the winter in Richmond, Virginia at the Greater Richmond Convention Center? Alex pointed out that the Virginia wine calendar was largely empty from December to early March.
Mr. Moses was intrigued enough to invite Alex to pitch his idea to the Virginia Wine Board, which was holding its next meeting in two weeks. Alex pitched the idea and, after several months, the Virginia Wine Board and the Virginia Wineries Association decided to support it on the condition that the event only feature Virginia wine. Thus, the Virginia Wine Expo was born.
Now in its ninth year, the Virginia Wine Expo has become the mid-Atlantic's premier wine event. Attendance is expected to exceed 11,000 in 2016 and reach 15,000+ by 2018. The Expo has grown to include over 24 different events at the Greater Richmond Convention Center and nearby venues.
Please enjoy the VWE and feel free to let us know what you think.

1967 Ford Fairlane news, pictures, specifications, and information
The base trim level for 1967 was the Ford Fairlane and came equipped with a chrome windshield and rear window moldings. They had a chrome horn ring, chrome rain gutter moldings, front and rear armrests, vinyl-coated rubber floor mats, cigarette lighter, and a single horizontal chrome trip strip that ran along the bodyside, with the Fairlane name at the front end.
The Fairlane wore the same body that had been introduced the prior year but with minor trim changes. In the front, the grille was a single aluminum stamping instead of the two grilles from 1966. The taillights were divided horizontally by the back-up light. The previous year, they had been vertical.
Body styles include a 2- and 4-door sedan along with a station wagon. The base engine was a six-cylinder 200 cubic-inch engine offering 120 horsepower. Pricing began at $2300 for the 2-door sedan and $2340 for the 4-door version. The station wagon listed for $2640.
The intermediate trim level for 1967 was the
Fairlane 500
. It came equipped all the Fairlane trim plus special Fairlane 500 moldings and trim. They had color-keyed carpet and a choice of four nylon and vinyl upholsteries. There was a stamped aluminum lower bodyside molding that had the Fairlane name at the front edge and another aluminum stamping with the Ford name located on the vertical section of the trunk lid.
Body styles included in the Fairlane 500 was a 2- and 4-door sedan, hardtop coupe, convertible, and station wagons (a 6- and 9-passenger version).
Next was the
Fairlane 500XL
Series and was described as the sporty version. They had all the Fairlane 500 features plus special name plagues and exterior trim, Deluxe wheel covers, bucket seats and console, red safety lights and white courtesy lights in the lower interior door panels. Six-cylinder cars could be purchased as a convertible or a hardtop coupe. V8-powered cars could be purchased as a hardtop coupe, convertible, GT Coupe, and GT Convertible. GT models came equipped with the 289 CID V8 engine rated at 200 horsepower. For the other cars, this was a $106 option. A two- and four-barrel 390 CID V8 was available.
By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2013
The name Fairlane came from Henry Ford's Fair Lane mansion location in Dearborn, Michigan. The Ford Fairlane was introduced in 1955 as Ford's full-size model and was available in six different body styles. The vehicle could be assembled as a 2 door club sedan, a 4 door town sedan, a Victoria 2 door hardtop, a Sunliner convertible, a Crown Victoria, or a Crown Victoria with a plastic top.
There were wide assortments of engines to select from. The base 223 cubic-inch, Inline-six cylinder engine produced 120 horsepower. A modified version of the engine produced 137 horsepower. The 272 cubic inch, V8 engine produced 162 horsepower with the modified version producing 182 horsepower. In
1956, two new V8 engines were introduced. The 292 cubic-inch engine produced 200 horsepower. The 312 cubic-inch produced 215 horsepower with the modified version producing 225 horsepower.
In 1956 a four door Victoria hard-top was added to the line up.
In 1957, the height of the vehicle was reduced by two inches. The suspension received improvements via swept back front lower control arms and longer rear leaf springs. The engines remained the same but with modifications, the horsepower ratings increased. A new top trim was added to the line up, the 500. This introduction was significant because it was the world's first power retractable hardtop.
With its convenience, it also brought problems. The system was expensive, complicated, and riddled with mechanical defects.
In 1958, the front bumper and grille was redesigned. Quad headlamps were used in the front and rear of the vehicle, replacing the previous single headlamp design. Other exterior changes included updates to the side and top of the vehicle. A new 'big Block', 332/352 cubic-inch V8 replaced the 292 and 312 cubic-inch V8's.
1959 was the final year for the Skyliner Hardtop Convertible. The remaining Fairlanes received styling and mechanical changes. The size of the windshields increased; the headlamps and rear of the vehicle received modifications as well. Due to fuel economy, the V8 engines were de-tuned. The suspension continued to receive improvements, increasing ride-quality. Part-way through the year, Ford introduced another body style, the Galaxie.
The 1960 Fairlanes were six inches longer, five inches wider and about 200 pounds heavier. The Sunliner returned to the line-up. The square-roof Starliner of 1959 was replaced by a pillarless, two-door hardtop version. The rest of the body styles received updates that included straight A-pillars and horizontal tailfins.
In 1961, a 390 cubic-inch V8 engine was introduced, capable of producing 375 horsepower. The modified version of the engine produced over 400 horsepower. The Fairlane was once again redesigned and contrary to the prior year, became lighter and shorter. The hood of the vehicle was reshaped, the grille was re-worked, and the taillights, once again, were changed.
In 1962, a new, light weight 221 cubic-inch V8 was built using a process called thin-wall casting. The 221 was referred at to as the 'worlds first economy eight'. Later, the engine was increased to 260 cubic inches and then 289 cu in. Half-way through the year, Ford introduced the Fairlane 500 Sports Coupe. The vehicle featured bucket seats and an option for a 260 cubic-inch V8, which was actually a modified version of the light-weight V8. The vehicles could be assembled in either three speed manual or 'Fordomatic Drive' automtaic transmission.
In 1963 another new engine appeared on the scene. This was a 289 cubic-inch engine that produced 270 horsepower in modified form. The exterior received minor improvements. The front grill was new for 1963 which required modifications to the hood, bumper, and fenders.
In 1964 there were eight body styles to select from; none were convertibles.
The rear of the vehicle was restyled. The tailfins were removed. The suspension was modified which improved ride-quality. The interior received minor enhancments. Full carpeting for the floors was available. Turn signals would shut off after a slight turn of the steering wheel.
Ford produced 57 special Fairlane's that were comprised of a highly modified engine and a 3200 pound lightweight package. The purpose was for drag racing. The weight of the vehicle was reduced by incorporating fiberglass fenders, Plexiglas windows, light weight bucket seats, and other weight saving measures. The engine was a modified 427 big block that produced around 500 horsepower. The transmission and suspension was modified to accommodate these special drag racing vehicles. Commonly referred to as 'Thunderbolt' or 'T-bolts', the success on the race track increased the demand for these vehicles and 54 additional vehicles were produced, bringing the total to 111 examples.
In 1965, Ford moved the Fairlane out of the mid-size market. The base engine was the 200 cubic inch V6 that produced 120 horsepower. The 289 cubic-inch V8 replaced the 260 cu.in. engine.
In 1966 the GT and GTA packages were introduced. A new convertible option was added to the line-up as well. Due to the size of the big block V8, the Fairlane needed to be redesigned to accommodate. The GTA series came equipped with SportShift Cruise-O-Matic automatic gearboxes and the 390 cubic-inch V8.
The GT series featured the 390 cubic-inch V8 as standard equipment. Other equipment for these series included suspension modifications, disc brakes, special hoods, paint and body striping, badges, and special steering wheels.
In 1967 only minor aesthetic changes were done to the vehicle. The GT and GTA series received front disc brakes, vinyl interiors, and bucket seat as standard equipment. The disc brakes were a major improvement from the prior drum-brake system. The 289 cubic inch V8 produced 200 horsepower, the 390 cubic inch V8 produced 275 horsepower and a modified version of the 390 cubic-inch produced 320 horsepower. A 427 cubic-inch 'side oiler' was available, although about 200 were produced. The 427 cubic-inch engine was capable of producing between 410 and 425 horsepower.
Additional modifications to the engine would bring about even more horsepower.
In 1968, the Fairlane was redesigned and was once again moved into the full-size car class. A 'Sportsroof' fastback and Torino series were added to the line-up. The vehicles were either called a Fairlane or a Torino. The lower through mid range vehiciles were Fairlanes. The GT and higher-end versions were called Torino models. The Torino featured a 320 cubic-inch V8 engine, bucket seats, badges, striping, light package, and wheel covers. The engine options for this year included a 302, 390, and 427 cubic inch. A Super Cobra Jet version of 427 cubic inch horsepower provided the most horsepower out of the list of available engines.
In 1969, more modifications to the vehicle occurred making it better suited for the road and the race track. Mechanical enhancements increased the overall horsepower output of all the engines, the suspension was modified, four-speed manual transmission, and wider tires were offered.
The Torino Talladega series, named after a 2.66 mile track in Alabama, was designed for the NASCAR circuit. The vehicle featured aerodynamic enhancements that included a sloped nose and reworked rocker panels. The big block 428 cubic-inch V8 was used, supplying 335 horsepower. In total, 754 examples were produced.
In 1970, the Fairlane was once again restyled. All dimensions, except for the height, increased in size. The Falcon was added to the Torino series. A wide variety of engines and modifications existed this year for the Fairlane family. They included a 302, 351, and 429 cubic-inch engines. The 302, on the low end, produced 220 bhp and 250 bhp after modifications. The 351 produced between 285-300 horsepower, while the 429 produced 360 bhp on the low end and 375 horsepower after modifications.
In 1971, the engines were detuned or replaced with six-cylinder engines, due to rising fuel concerns and strict emission regulations. The 250 cubic inch six-cylinder produced 145 horsepower, the 302 cubic inch V8 produced 220-250 horsepower. A 351 and 429 cubic-inch engine were still available with horsepower ratings ranging from 285 bhp through 375 bhp. The styling for the Torino's remained virtually unmodified.
In 1972, the Torino's continued to grow in all dimensions, even weight. The convertible and Cobra options were removed from the line up.
Ford had used the Torino model-line to phase out the Fairlane models. The Fairlanes were offered from 1955 though 1971.

A Message from the Dean
Hello from The Citadel School of Engineering! As we complete our twelfth year as a school, we would like to let you in on the incredible news and exciting buzz surrounding what's happening within engineering at The Citadel.
Last year we started the new Mechanical Engineering program with 75 freshmen, 6 sophomores and 3 juniors. The estimated numbers of freshman that will be arriving in August 2015 is over 120. As we patiently raise funds for a new building with additional office, classroom, and laboratory space to support Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Project Management, we are nearing completion of a small building behind Grimsley Hall to support fabrication throughout the school and manufacturing courses and laboratories.
More importantly, our students have been recognized on the local, regional, and national stage this past year.
- The ASCE Student Chapter was recognized as a Ridgway Award Finalist Chapter, one of the top five of 304 ASCE Student Chapters that includes 12 international student groups (The Citadel won the award in 2012, finalist in 2010 and 2011).

- 2015 Colonel Charles Lindberg Award: Jason Hatch (Evening Student)
EE Department End-of-Year Awards:
- Peter Gaillard Award: Cadet Carson Smith
- Charles Thurston Razor Award: OC Jason Shea
Of course, outstanding student success is nurtured by outstanding faculty. Our faculty have performed equally as well winning local, regional, and national awards: outstanding teaching, outstanding research, outstanding papers, Society Fellow recognition, Society Senior Member, Lowcountry Engineer of the Year, and three promoted to full professor.
We began in 2013 recognizing not only Citadel engineering graduates, but other outstanding engineers with Citadel connections through induction into The Citadel Academy of Engineers. Our engineering alumni and supporters are making a difference throughout the world, and a list of their accomplishments could fill this entire magazine. I provide a list of inductees to recognize these current and past engineering leaders and to enlist your assistance in making recommendations for future inductions. All recommendations will be placed in the nomination pool for consideration by the School of Engineering Leadership Team.

In short five years of its existence, the MS in Project Management (MSPM) has gone from zero to 39 graduates each year. This unique program, the only one in SC, was recently accredited by the Project management Institute (PMI) Global Accreditation Center (GAC). It is one of only 26 programs in the USA to hold this distinction. The growth of local industry motivated the School of Engineering to build the Mechanical Engineering program mentioned above to meet the growing demand for educating of the current workforce. Current success and additional demand for engineering master's degrees has shaped our recent decision to submit master's degree programs in Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering to the SC Commission on Higher Education. We anticipate their approval this year and hope to offer our first courses within these degrees beginning the fall of 2016. Each program has multiple certificates included that allows for their incorporation into our current MS in Project Management and its associated certificates. Rest assured, our first focus will always be our undergraduate programs, but the faculty are excited about the ability to provide graduate level education to support the lowcountry graduate engineering education needs. In fact, many local alumni have been waiting patiently for us to roll out these new engineering masters' level programs.
I invite you to learn more about us through the four program websites (Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Leadership and Program Management) and newsletter to see in greater detail the exciting activities associated with The Citadel School of Engineering. If you are interested in attending The Citadel as a cadet, or entering our evening undergraduate programs, or becoming an evening graduate student in Project Management (with electives in Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Leadership, Systems Engineering Management, and Information Assurance and Security (Thru University of South Carolina) among other options), I would invite you to contact me, go to the Department websites and/or visit the Admissions department to gather more information. You can reach me at:

Jake Arrieta leads a stellar class of "who's hot," for the last week and a half, while Kam Mickolio leads the other half, the "who's not-ers."
So let's get right to it...
The bi-weekly edition of "Who's Hot, Who's Not."
Jake Arrieta leads a stellar class of "who's hot," for the last week and a half, while Kam Mickolio leads the other half, the "who's not-ers."
So let's get right to it...
The bi-weekly edition of "Who's Hot, Who's Not."
What does a guy have to do to get a promotion?
An 11 strikeout performance didn't do it. A 1.16 ERA over the first month of the season? Not enough. Now he has back-to-back seven inning outings with a 16:4 strikeout to walk ratio, and he was still passed over in favor of 40-man roster member Chris Tillman.
Whatever, though. Arrieta has been lighting it up, and has had an outstanding season so far. After starting his season off out-dueling Jeremy Hellickson, Arrieta has put together a 5-2 campaign and a tops in the IL 1.86 ERA.
He hasn't been as stellar in May as he was in April, but Arrieta is doing what most have asked of him, especially cutting down on his walks. After issuing at least four walks in his previous four starts, Arrieta trimmed that number to two a piece in his last two. His 55 strikeouts rank 6th in the IL, although he also paces the league in walks with 32.
He has also re-established his role as an inning-eater, going seven-plus innings in half of his 10 starts, and he leads the IL in innings with 63.
Arrieta should be next in line for a call-up should something happen to Matusz, Guthrie, Millwood, or Bergy.
Such a tease you are, Mr. Mickolio.
After teasing O's fans with his HUGE (pun intended) upside, Mickolio has been pretty much a disappointment so far in 2010. In the minors, in the majors—no real difference.
After his most recent two-thirds of an inning, three earned run performance, his bloated ERA now stands at 8.78. He does have a ridiculous 19 strikeouts in only 13 innings, but he's also surrendered four home runs in only 13 appearances, and given up 13 earned runs.
And that's at AAA.
In the big leagues, Mickolio gave up three earned runs in only three innings, and did nothing to prove that he deserves a spot in the O's bullpen.
Look out Baltimore! Here comes another hot-hitting catcher!
Caleb Joseph has put behind a dreadful start to the season, and has raked this past two weeks: A .410 batting average. Six multi-hit games in his past ten. Two home runs. 10 RBI's.
His ridiculous swell has turned a .192 April batting average into a .288 line for the season. It seems he has finally found his footing at Bowie, and given Norfolk's lack of star catcher potential, it seems as if Joseph could be in for a late-season promotion to Norfolk.
After that, the question becomes: Where does Joseph fit into the O's long-term plans?
Just end it already!!!
I'm sick, and you know the O's have to be sick, of Brandon Erbe's constant 2-4 inning starts.
In his last two, he has been downright dreadful. Eight innings pitched. Ten earned runs. Only four strikeouts. Two home runs.
Somehow, Erbe has managed to lose EIGHT games this season!! Don't ask me how, especially considering his seven-inning, four hit shutout performance three starts ago. In fact, that one game was the only game in which Erbe didn't receive a loss.
Just in case you were wondering, his eight losses lead the IL, his 6.80 ERA is second-worst, and his seven home runs make the top 10 worst.
Bullpen anyone?
Now, THIS is the Eddie Gamboa we've all come to know and love.
After struggling for the early part of the season, Gamboa seems to have found his footing at the AA level. He's tossed three consecutive, scoreless two-inning appearances. In those 6.2 innings, he's only surrendered two hits and given up zero runs (earned or unearned.)
He's struck out nine batters and walked only one, returning to his old Gamboa ways.
Now that he appears to be back, the question is, much like Joseph, what's holding back a promotion to Norfolk?
After 33 games of pure ugly, the Orioles finally put Miguel Abreu out of his misery, and shipped him back to Frederick.
In those 33 games, Abreu notched a .198 average, eight points below his career average. He tallied only five extra-base hits, scored only 12 runs, and walked only twice. His 25 strikeouts belied his plate discipline issues, and he was caught stealing more times than he succeeded in swiping a base.
Now Abreu is back at Frederick, where he turned in a stellar season last year. A .290 average, 31 doubles, 55 runs, 45 RBI and 25 stolen bases. And pretty solid defense.
Let's hope he can recapture that, and become more than just a mid-level minor leaguer stuck in the system.
This is the most important season of Zach Britton's career.
He spent the first two seasons gaining confidence and establishing an identity as a groundball guy. The next two seasons generating lots of underground buzz about being one of the most underrated pitching prospects in baseball.
Now, Britton has arrived. He's been heavily touted as one of the best lefty prospects in the minors.
And over the past two starts, Britton has returned to his fine form. He's put together consecutive quality starts, notched two wins, allowed only one earned run, struck out ten and walked only two.
In May, Britton has been outstanding. A 3-1 record, a 2.54 ERA, 21 strikeouts and only eight walks.
