GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - The countdown to 2010 is just around the corner. New Year's Eve is on Thursday night but if you don't have plans yet, don't fear. We have our guide to bringing in 2010 safely and in style.
Even though 2010 is almost upon us, it's not too late to make your plans for the last day of the year. Here are some ideas for fun things to do – from a fancy date for two, to cheap thrills at home with the family.
Family fun for New Year's Eve:
Banana's Funpark is having a New Year's Eve Bash. It's $10 per person and goes from 7 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Your ticket gets you in for the whole evening, with miniature golf, jousting, go-karts, laser tag and more.
If the family is up for a ski trip and you want to see some fireworks, Powderhorn is the place for you. There's a buffet dinner from 4 to 7 p.m. and then when night falls, it's time for the torchlight parade and fireworks show.
Party like it's 2010:
If you're up for having a dance party for your celebration, here are some fun things to do:
Mesa Theater & Club is having a DJ party that starts at 9 p.m. For the first time ever it's open to 18 and older. The cost is $10 to get in and that gets you drink specials (for those 21 and older) and a free party favor.
If you're up for music from a different era, head over to Boomer's. That party kicks off at 9 p.m. It's $30.00 per person, but the ticket includes free appetizers, reserved seats, party favors and a champagne toast at midnight.
Events for Any Budget:
For those of you who broke the bank for Christmas, you can still have a great time ringing in 2010.
Man of La Mancha is being performed at the Avalon Theater. Ticket prices range from $10 to $39, and there are discounts for kids and seniors.
If you're up for having people over, you can throw your own party for under $30. Some ideas? Make it a pot-luck dinner, each person can bring their own dish. Then, ask everyone to wear their best 2010 hat and bring along their own noisemakers. Set up board games so you can have tournaments and marathon competitions to help fill the time before midnight. And if it's a kid-friendly event, set up a separate area for the little tykes so they can play their own games and watch movies just for them.
Here are some ideas for you and your sweetheart to enjoy the last date night of 2009:
Firefall and Stray Grass performance at the Double Tree Hotel. It costs $29.92 per person and that includes specials all night as well as complimentary champagne. If you book a room for the night, you'll get a ticket for free with the "Take the Elevator Home" offer.
For those of you who are experienced square dancers, there's a fun New Year's Even Dance at the Masonic Temple. The Levis & Lace Square Dance Club is $5 per person, and it's featuring Caller Lamar Podbevsek.
And if you want to make New Year's Eve really special for your date, check out the New Year's Eve Gala at the Varaison Vineyards & Winery in Palisade. It's $125 per person and starts at 6 p.m. The seating is limited so be sure to make reservations soon.
Be Safe – Plan Ahead
Finally, just a note about staying safe this New Year's Eve, the Grand Junction Police Department wants to remind you to plan ahead before you go anywhere for the evening to make sure you have a safe way home.
If you're planning on going out, designate a sober driver to get you back safely. If you don't have a friend to drive you, take a cab. Program the cab company's number into your phone before you leave to go out. If you're going to be at a hotel, rent a room there so you can stay the night, or invite everyone to stay at your place so they aren't on the roads in the early morning hours.
Whatever it is you decide to do, plan ahead and have a safe and fun New Year's Eve.
The Grand Junction Visitor and Convention Bureau keeps an extensive list of events, including all the contact information for the events. See below for a link to their Web site.

Isn't it all a trade off though throughout the season? Don't you adjust what you what based on what is attainable?
While we we a mid table team, winning a domestic cup would have been superb. But as soon as we started to regularly hit the European spots (which isn't that long ago) - and brought teams like the Milans to the Lane - isn't that reward in itself? It doesn't preclude going after a domestic cup, but surely the goal is now higher?
And whether we like it or not, the players all now cost a fortune to buy and in wages, so the domestic cups simply don't 'earn' enough (£100K for the League Cup and £2M for the FA Cup - and that is winning them) - to win the Europa is probably closer to £10M (given the match and round bonuses).
But for me, it is and isn't about the money. I want a team that plays well and with flair - and I want to see us 'prove' how good we are by playing the best teams. I'm not that impressed by winning the LC having beaten Barnsley, Coventry...on the way. I want to see us beat RM - and the only chance of that is getting into the competition where those teams play - and that is by invite only - you have to get 4th and above. And by virtue or earning that 'invite' you get more money that hopefully enables you to return next year with better players. All money based, I know.
So, yep, I want the glory of lifting a trophy - but I want the FA over the League Cup and the Europa over the FA and the CL over the Europa. And there's the dichotomy as do I want Europa at the expense of the invite to the CL? Aaaaarrrrrrrrgh. I want both! I want us to be hosting the top clubs next season in the CL. I'd like the glory of lifting the Europa. What is more beneficial to the club? I would guess the CL.
Confused? I am....

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
What if, instead of schlepping off to Home Depot, you could furnish your house with art you fell in love with while visiting galleries? Hand-painted sofas, light-box beds, glittering lamps. For most of us,
that's pretty much a dream — but one you can fantasize about at Praxis International Art. At the exhibit "Home: Dream Home," the living room, dining room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen are all decorated with art pieces from an impressive group of local artists.
The designer, er, curator, of this show is Grela Orihuela, executive producer of the film company Wet Heat Project (which made features about Bert Rodriguez and Hernan Bas) and all-around art lover. During her years of art gazing and film making, she made a mental note of the functional works of art that she would use to furnish her ideal home. Then she thought, well if I can't buy it all, I can at least show it off. Almost all the pieces in this show she saw exhibited before (two are specifically crafted for it), so she went to the artists and picked out the works. Most are indeed functional, although painting and sculpture are included, too — but hey, what respectable house would go without, so we can put them in the functional column as well. All are also for sale, and since Orihuela cannot be the proud owner of them all, she hopes others will feel encouraged to pick something up — and sit on it.
In the living room is a sofa and chairs painted by David Rohn, a table by Emmett Moore, complete with a small sculpture topping it by Typoe, and some paintings on the wall from Mette Tommerup. Over in the study, a rug made from the stuffing of stuffed animals comes from Agustina Woodgate, and the Ikea stool set was crafted by Nicholas Arehart. There's a must-see paper-towel roll with some very special, stencil-looking wording from BooksIIII Bischof, who also made the street-art "wall paper" in the dining room. There, check out the bowl of square strawberries on the table.
In the bedroom, Rodriguez made the bed and bench with low-lights, while a terrific lamp light piece from Paul Myoda electrifies the room. In the bathroom, another light piece, this time from Kyle Trowbridge, means more when you find out where the script on it comes from; but you'll have to discover that on your own.
There are many other unique and interesting pieces, from the likes of Natasha Duwin, Brian Burkhardt, Jose Felix Perez, Gean Moreno and Ernesto Oroza and Michael Loveland, to name only some of them. It's a big, creative home catalogue, no longer just a dream. Oh, and on the way out, take a break on the outdoor bus bench from Loriel Beltran. You won't break it, promise.
"Home: Dream Home" opens Saturday, July 9 and runs through Aug. 13 at Praxis International Art, 2219 N.W. Second Ave., Miami; www.praxis-art.com.

Former West Virginia Judge Eliott "Spike" Maynard, who spent a week or so frolicking on the French Riviera with Massey Energy CEO Don Blankenship a couple of years ago, is now running as a Republican to unseat incumbent Democratic Rep. Nick Rahall in the U.S. Congress.
Blankenship, a Tea Party backer, is being assailed as a notorious mine safety violator, responsible for the April 5 deaths of 29 miners in Massey's Upper Big Branch mine. United Mine Workers President Cecil Roberts called for jailing Blankenship for sacrificing miners' lives to squeeze out maximum profits.
Maynard sent out a press release March 26 inviting former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to a rally at a West Virginia mine in his campaign for the Republican nomination to oust Rahall, a strong proponent of coal miner safety and health. Rahall, one of a handful of Arab Americans in Congress, is on Palin's infamous rifle scope "crosshair map" of 20 incumbent Democrats she has targeted for defeat in this fall's midterm election.
"We would love to have Sarah Palin showcase modern mining as a clean, safe, and cheap way to produce energy," said Maynard. "She'll have to put on a hardhat but I'm sure she won't mind."
Maynard said he "welcomes Governor Palin and her extensive Tea Party network," adding that Palin will "help us engage and energize the voters that don't understand Obama, Pelosi, and Rahall's liberal agenda."
West Virginians, he continued, "love Sarah because she has the same values we have. She is against Obamacare and is for smaller government and she strongly supports coal and all other forms of cheap energy. Remember, Sarah is the one who said, 'Drill baby, drill.'"
Maynard proclaims that the first bill he will introduce if elected will be to terminate all funding for the Environmental Protection Agency, which he accuses of waging "war against coal."
After the Sago, W. Va., mine disaster that killed 14 miners in January 2006, Rahall was a leader in the drive to strengthen mine safety and health enforcement through mandatory penalties for mine owners guilty of "reckless disregard for safety rules."
Rahall's bill would have sharply reduced permissible coal dust in mines, the cause of pneumoconiosis, or black lung, that has killed more than 10,000 miners in the past decade. A 2007 report by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health warned that the rate of black lung has more than doubled in five years, especially among younger miners. Yet Republican obstruction forced the severe weakening of the bill in the face of a veto threat by then-President George W. Bush.
If the bill Rahall was pushing had not been gutted by GOP obstruction, the 29 miners who died in the April 5 explosion at Massey's Upper Big Branch mine might be alive today.
Maynard took the all expenses-paid vacation to Monte Carlo with Massey Energy CEO Don Blankenship in 2006, while serving as a justice on the West Virginia Supreme Court. The court was then hearing an appeal by Massey Energy against a $50 million jury verdict for Massey's unsafe, environmentally disastrous mining practices. See
Blankenship had poured millions of Massey Energy money into electing Maynard and another handpicked candidate, Brent Benjamin, to the court. Both Maynard and Benjamin voted to overturn the jury verdict - so brazen that the U.S. Supreme Court reversed that decision on grounds the West Virginia court violated rules requiring justices to recuse themselves in cases involving their own self-interest. (See Crooks and Liars video: "Massey Energy CEO So Determined To Win, He Financed Campaign For His Own Judge.")
Maynard served as chief justice of the West Virginia Supreme Court until 2008, when he was defeated in the Democratic primary by two women, Margaret Workman ad Elizabeth Walker, who are now serving 12-year terms.
Maynard claims he decided to switch to the Republican Party "because of an illness. I got sick of Nancy Pelosi." In fact, he switched after his primary defeat.

(2000) Relaxation bottleneck and its suppression in semiconductor microcavities. Physical Review B: Condensed Matter and Materials Physics, 62 (4). R2283-R2286. ISSN 1098-0121
A polariton relaxation bottleneck is observed in angle-resolved measurements of photoluminescence emission from a semiconductor microcavity. For low power laser excitation, low k polariton states are found to have a very small population relative to those at high k. The bottleneck is found to be strongly suppressed at higher powers in the regime of superlinear emission of the lower polariton states. Evidence for the important role of carrier-carrier scattering in suppression of the bottleneck is presented.

Sandblom-Departee Spokane
Jeanne DePartee recently became the bride of Michael Sandblom in a ceremony at Park Lane RV Park.
The bride is the daughter of Nelson and Marilyn DePartee, Garfield, Wash. Kathryn Eckelberry, Medical Lake, is the mother of the groom.
A reception at the RV park followed the ceremony. The Sandbloms are living in Spokane after a honeymoon on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
Where does the money go?

text: I think I could sort of use one poll for all 60 of my pages by inserting a custom field asking which page they're rating, but I would then like to be able to take a look a the register and see what the rating was. Is it possible to get an email or some kind of notification that somebody's used the poll? Otherwise, am I correct that I'd need to create 60 pages and 60 polls to keep track of the numerical rating for each page?

GM has paired up with Segway to develop and market a new vehicle, which GM is calling the vehicle of the future. The new vehicle, named the Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility Project (P.U.M.A. for short), balances on two wheels, much like the Segway.
What's different is its speed and range. Whereas the Segway could only go 12 MPH -- suitable for mall officer cruising speeds, but not for the roads -- the P.U.M.A. can do 35 MPH. It also has an extended range, which bumps its range up to a commute-worthy 35 miles.
The vehicle could indeed make a splash on city roads, where speed limits would make a 35 MPH vehicle practical. This side-by-side two wheeler could potentially steal business from tradition two wheelers -- which have one wheel in front of the other -- like mopeds.
The new machine is powered by a lithium-ion battery pack. GM should be able to bring some of its engineering experience from designing the Chevy Volt to extending the range of the vehicle and cutting the weight of the pack.
Another key feature of the vehicle is its ability to communicate information to its fellow P.U.M.A.'s and potentially other vehicles around it. This feature can be used to reduce traffic congestion and to prevent accidents. This should help to slightly reduce the risk of blazing down city streets doing 35 MPH with the new vehicle.
Cost is still being worked out, but early estimates point to a cost of somewhere around $3,500-5,500 USD, about a quarter of that of a traditional automobile. The P.U.M.A. will be officially unveiled to the world this week at the New York Auto Show.

I've researched this and found lots of people with the same issue and no answer, so I'll also post what I've done.
This is a *fresh* install of WordPress 3.4.2 at this service provider. When I go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes and attempt to Save & Publish, it prompts me for my wordpress username and password. I input those and receive the message that I am now logged in. The updated preview displays and *immediately* returns to Your session has expired. Please log-in again.
>I am using the Twenty Eleven theme. Same error with other themes.
>I had only one plug-in running (Jetpack) and I've disable it. *NO* plugins are running.
>I have twice uninstalled and removed EVERY WordPress file from my root directory.
>I've had my ISP delete my account and set it up again with a fresh install of WordPress.
>I have WordPress running properly with this ISP on 2 other accounts.
>Subdomains for WordPress Address and Site Address are exactly the same.
>I've cleared the browser cache/history.
I've seen the answer give to this question that this is a wordpress.com issue rather than a wordpress.org issue. WordPress.com insists that server side installs is wordpress.org.
These are all the suggestions I've seen so far, but none have worked. Any other ideas?

Boosey`s Interview Questions
at 09:32 on 01 July 2008
A representative of a big music publishing company owned by the Dutch Pension Fund recently sent a little information to this site giving us the names of three composers they had chosen to invest in.
Later she joined the Forum and used its facilities to present us with links to commercial hype around the particular composers concerned.
OK. It's all part of information which it does not harm us greatly to know about.
But as soon as she was asked to talk about her own feelings and judgement concerning these composers or other questions of interest to the general run of composers for whom this forum was intended, the commercial interests involved made her, quite correctly, chose to refrain from further comment.
Now she is being granted an interview, and instead of the normal exchange of info and ideas on these pages, questions to her are called for under privileged conditions(i.e. - as I understand it: in such a way that we will not be able to see what they are - unless she choses to refer to them in her answers)
I understand that this forum is not intended to be run as a democratic institution run by its members - such a project would be completely unrealistic. Meanwhile all credit to David for running this enterprise so fairly and openly and for taking so many helpful inittiatives. But is this interview called for? Was there any demand for it? Is it going to be possible for the representatives of the Dutch Pension Fund/International conglomerate to give honest answers to honest questions? If so, why did their rep not give them at the time when she was given every opportunity to participate in any way she felt like as an equal member of this forum?

Let's face it, if she wants to keep her job and even get promotion, she would have to be very calculated to what she said in the interview. That's just big corporate business.
All credit to David for getting the interview but nobody can expect too much from these kinds of interviews, at best it's for good marketing on behalf of the company and there's nothing wrong with that really; again, big corporate business.

I don't know about that, guys. Haven't exactly done a solid job or presenting critical questions, have we?
Here's one: it seems to me that the composer/publisher relationship that made B&H what it is no longer exists: a very few number of years ago elite composers had to deal with monopolistic publishing companies to disseminate their work. Now (at least here in Canada, where I live) there's an increasing trend of the most influential composers creating micro-publishing to maintain control of their work. It seems clear that this is a response to the ineffectiveness of traditional publishing. If B&H doesn't evolve a new approach to elite composers, it'll be left publishing the desperate dregs of quasi-sucessful and mediocre composers. Might work in the sort-term; in the long-term it's an obvious death sentance.
There is a definite emergence of self-published work. My local example is R.Murray Schafer and his very savy Arkana Music publishing.
At this point, the strategy seems to be a) picking up works by minor (emerging) composers and b) cherry picking works by established composers who don't have a clue about how the post-1990 publishing industry works.
So: What's the plan for re-establishing the company's creditability with significant composers? I don't go for the big business = evil model so much, but do very much think that there's a mutual responsibility that needs some reinvention.
Re: Boosey`s Interview Questions
at 14:11 on 05 July 2008
Quite right, Ben.
The major single obstacle to progress in fighting the disease and mortality crisis that is devastating the world is the dominance of the major pharmaceutical giants and - in particular - their obsession with grabbing exclusive patenting rights. The same goes for much innovation in science, technology and agriculture.
The same goest for the music 'industry'. I used to work for a magazine ('Time Out' - this is all of twenty years ago - I had occasion to take up a case I had heard of where the Music Publishers Association were taking an impoverished education authorityto court for having photocopied some sheets of music sung in public by a children's choir. I rang the MPA up. "But you should be on our side" they said. "We are protecting composers' interests." "Really?" I asked "Can you tell me how many living composers were involved in this case?" "Just a minute..." (Long Pause) "Sorry about that." "OK. Can you tell me....?" "Just one composer." "OK. And who was that?" "Alun Hodinott" So I rang him up and asked him if he was aware that the Music Publishers were standing for his rights in fighting X-side Education Authority for depriving him of his royalties.." "Oh, the MPA? F*** them! You know how much I would get per sheet sung? 10p! My interest is in having my pieces performed.... This can lead to commissions etc....As a matter of fact, more and more of us are getting thoroughly fed up with the publishers and are moving into publishing our own stuff..." This was before the age of the computer. Already in those days the photocopier had all but made music publishers redundant in the same way that, centuries earlier, music printing had made the Royal monopoly protection racket inoperable. The only use for 'music publishing' the MPA way is to provide a sort of Mafia of the privileged protecting their own against a world where more and more have the means to create music and where the hunt for people who are prepared to play the sole role of passive listener is getting ever and ever more critical and cut-throat.

It seems to me that we might be agreeing about something, Misuc! : the combination of new resources for self-publishing (and easy distribution) with the a regressive, conservative (conservative in the economic sense - meaning extreme risk-avoidance rather than in the artistic sense... the artistic side of the term being more-or-less irrelevant to the point) approach to building relationships with composers means companies of this scale have little potential to do much more than offer a hollow pretense of being interested in composition.
But isn't it also true that the broken relationship affects the publishers as well? Of course many of these companies are quite monolithic and resistant to change, so they don't react so quickly to what's happening as individual composers have.
Even so, I'm sure there's some recognition that it's increasingly difficult to maintain even a vestigial artistic role. I think a fair comparison would be with the vast majority of orchestras: they've mostly become mueseums for the canonical work; the companies we're talking about are on the same level. I don't know if it's possible for large-scale institutions to be artistically relevant now.
I think the last stage in pretending is companies doing more with quasi-independent branches (little "new composition" divisions, etc.), motivated by wanting to maintain the perception that they support composition (and therefore deserve favourable consideration by government agencies!) but I don't see that working: I have a feeling that the safety of working with established materials will clip any real momentum in that direction for a company of any size.
So I say screw it: the role of companies like B&H has changed, smaller-scale publishing and distribution works and offers composers flexability and a real relationship with someone engaged in their music.
I don't think this is a reflection on Sarah's character - personally I find her very nice and appreciate the fact that she wants to communicate her perspective - nor does it set up B&H as a bogey. One difference between our perception of this issue may be that you're slightly (I think) older and perhaps experienced enough of this transformation to have been disappointed by it. I think most composers of my generation take it for granted that independent and small-scale publishing is the only way to go.
But if B&H wants to maintain the illusion I don't see any harm in that: it'll give a boost to a couple people's careers while the alternatives continue to develop concurrently.

Asian stock markets fell Monday, with slower-than-expected growth in the U.S. and uncertainty about a tentative deal to resolve Greece's debt crisis weighing on investor sentiment.
NEW YORK: World stock markets plunged on Monday, after a near 9 per cent dive in China shares and a sharp drop in the dollar and major commodities sent investors rushing for the exits. After dropping more than 1,000 points, or almost 7 per cent, at Wall Street's open, the Dow Jones industrial average eased losses but was still off more than 1 per cent at midday. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was down by a similar margin after the US benchmark earlier dropped nearly 10 per cent below its record.
Beijing (AFP) - China's consumer inflation fell to a five-year low of 1.4 percent in November, the government said Wednesday, increasing concerns over the risk of deflation in the world's second-largest economy.

Miele Earth Vacuum Self Adjusts Power According to Surface
Released in celebration of Earth Day, the Miele Earth looks similar to their other canister vacuums, with all the improvements hidden away. Energy-saving advancements like the AutoEco automatically detects what type of flooring you're cleaning (carpet, smooth floors, drapes, furniture) and adjusts power for optimal cleaning performance and energy efficiency.
"Homeowners tend to think that the highest power setting is best for all cleaning," says Nadine Gast, Senior Product Manager for Miele. "This is absolutely a myth. The high setting should be used only on smooth floors. Drapes and carpets require specific settings for optimal cleaning and using AutoEco will not only save tremendously in energy consumption, but also will provide better performance and long term care for home furnishings."
Other green tweaks specific to this model is construction using materials specifically designed for easy recycling, cadmium and lead-free coatings, water-based paints, and of course, lower energy consumption performance. And most importantly, the Earth was designed for a 20 year life cycle, so you can purchase one and enjoy the sealed system HEPA filtering (proprietary multi-ply, random-spun filter material vac bags) for decades instead of replacing a broken vac after just a few years. And in this regard, purchasing an "expensive" vacuum like the upper tier, $999 Miele Earth, may come out to be more affordable appliance investment in the long run.

The future of Ford's factory in Genk, Belgium, has been thrown into doubt, following "an emergency meeting" with senior staff and union officials earlier today.
The Genk factory is where the current Ford Mondeo, S-MAX and Galaxy are built on Ford's EUCD platform. The plant employs 4,300 people.
The Mondeo, S-MAX and Galaxy are all due for replacement. However, instead of beginning production of the new Mondeo in Genk this month, it now seems likely that Ford will look to build it elsewhere.
The Genk plant will then be closed when the S-MAX and Galaxy reach the end of their production cycles next year, to help slow Ford's financial losses in the European market.
As well as being a tough time to sell cars, sales of large D-segment cars like the Mondeo and traditional large MPVs have been in decline for some time, as buyers upgrade to Audi A4s, BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Classes, or switch to SUVs.
The all-new Mondeo has already been delayed. A Ford spokesman said that this was to "work through various issues to ensure a robust and high-quality launch".
However, as well as making sure the Mondeo takes the fight to the premium German brands, it now seems that the decision on where the car will be built is also affecting the next Mondeo's launch.

I failed with a 200!! Passing is 140 or below. My doctor didn't even want to test me with the 3 hour test, but I want to know FOR SURE. What are you guys' opinions? I am also measuring 4 weeks ahead (also a sign), but I always measured ahead with my son, as well. Just confused and would love some insight.
Also, I fasted before hand and ate a good amount of protein yesterday.

Good wheel set
By alamo889
from El Cajon, Ca
About Me Casual/ Recreational
Comments about Shimano Ultegra WH-6800 Road Wheelset:
Been using this wheel set since April 2015. The wheels are light and the hubs spin freely but I`m having a problem keeping the rear wheel trued. Have had it trued several times but it keeps going out. Will be returning them to Nashbar for a new set. Otherwise a good wheel set.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Seem like great wheels
By Echo
from Fairfax VA
First, compliments to Nashbar for a very competitive price and quick delivery. As others noted, these wheels came true right out of the box.Certainly lightweight and a nice upgrade from my OEMs (Mavic CVP-22). Not enough riding yet to comment on durability, performance, etc.My only not-so-great comment is that my tire levers scratched the rim.

Best Upgrade You can Make
By Stump
from Brunswick, GA
About Me Competitive Cyclist
I should have done this years ago. If you want to upgrade from stock wheels these are great. Wish I had done this sooner. Well worth the money money! I am not a small guy @ 194 lbs and these make me feel very safe. I ride 25 miles a day and do 2 Centuries each year. These wheels should last me until I need a recumbent. Looked at many wheelsets and I keep coming back to these.

Needed a nice set of road wheels that would be tubeless compatible, Shimano name and all the qualities one would want for a decent and durable wheel set that won't break the bank

Awesome set of wheels
By Rick
from Fort Worth Tx
These wheels are extremely strong. I highly recommend them. I use them tubless. They are tubeless ready. I use Hutchinson Fusion 3 Tubeless tires on these wheels. Very satisfied.

Fantastic Upgrade
By Mongoose
from Saint Petersburg, FL
Upgraded from a pair of Rol Race SL clinchers to the WH-6800 wheel set. They may weigh ~200g more but I cannot tell the difference (either in endurance of average speed over rides). They are silky quiet in the flats and provide plenty of vertical compliance when it's time to climb.2 year warranty and Nashbar's quality assurance make the decision to purchase quite easy. A fantastic upgrade through and through.
Great Wheels Especially for the Money
By Mike
from Michigan
I was looking to upgrade the stock wheels on my Trek. When I found these at such a great price I couldn't pass it up. For reference I am 5'10" and 205lbs. These have proved to be very durable rims. I have about 300 miles on them so far and they as true as the day I set them up. They the rim profile is wider than my Bontrager wheel which makes the ride more comfortable and my 25c tires actually 25c wide. Not the lightest wheel set, but the seem to be of great quality in both build and parts. No regrets.
great wheels
By qwksti
from SO CAL
Great set of wheels, and for the price I got them from Nashbar, wow cant go wrong. These wheels are buil very well, rolled tru right out of the box. Great hubs, good looking, and tubeless ready. Im running reg tubes and tires on them, and I have to say, that would be a con for me, they were really hard to mount tires onto. These wheels seem to be a little wider than my other set. So my tires were VERY hard to get on to these wheels. But other than that, no complaints. I would buy these again.
Great Upgrade
By Grinder
from Greensboro, NC.
I would recommend these to anyone looking to upgrade a set of OEM wheels or for anyone who is looking to drop some weight on their "rotating mass" for better climbing and acceleration. Good designs and easy conversion (I am using them for a 10 Speed Cannonade CAAD 8 right now.)
