The launch of the all-new 2015 Mustang is underway and you can be assured that at Steeda Autosports, we are not resting on our laurels – our engineering team is already working diligently on a full complement of performance enhancements for the 2015 Mustang. Our race drivers/engineers have already been at the track with our cars testing and subjecting our performance parts to the most grueling "real track" conditions possible – proving that our performance parts indeed deliver the Steeda promise of superlative performance enhancements, rock-solid durability, and the best value for your money. Once virtual modeling and testing is completed, physical prototypes were created in-house and these parts are then installed on our 2015 Steeda Mustangs. Then, it is time for our comprehensive "real world" testing to commence – on the street, drag strip, and most importantly, at the race track, a step that others often shortcut. We never take shortcuts as we consistently always go the extreme to test and validate our products so you will never be disappointed. We track tested our Steeda S550 at Palm Beach International Raceway (PBIR) for NVH levels and handling characteristics compared to the outgoing S197 model – we were surprisingly impressed with the performance of the 2015 Mustang, to say the least. We purposely embark on a costly and lengthy developmental testing program with the intent of gaining tremendous knowledge about the new Mustang S550 platform – information that could only have been obtained by rigorous and dynamic testing at the track by our seasoned race/development team of drivers. There is an old saying in the auto circles: "Racing will either prove the theory or destroy it" – rest assured, every part we Steeda creates will be subjected to the most rigorous race testing possible. For the 2015 Mustang platform, we are developing comprehensive suspension system enhancements, chassis stiffening components and engine upgrade components (cold air intakes and tunes) that will further enhance the overall vehicle's performance without compromising the vehicle dynamics – performance gains are what we specialize in and you will be very pleased.

Steeda Supports the 2014 Annual Patriot Day Car Cruise to the Keys
September 11, 2001 was the date of one of the most terrible tragedies ever to occur on American soil. For the 10th straight year, the Stangs of South Florida, an automotive enthusiast club and internet forum made up of over 1,000 local members who all drive and share the passion for the Ford Mustang, reunited to pay tribute to those who lost their lives that sad day, and also to commemorate our many wounded warriors. The Patriot Day Car Cruise was proudly sponsored by Steeda Autosports and is an annual fundraiser event that benefits the Wounded Warrior Project.
This year, even threatening weather could not hold back the diehard Mustang enthusiasts as the event had its largest crowd ever commemorating September 11th and supporting our wounded warriors.
The day started under the threat of bad weather, but that didn't stop anybody as there was a procession of over 150 cars led by a special Miami-Dade Police car and also one of very our special prototype Steeda F150 trucks. The sight of all of these vehicles together in procession, all commemorating 9/11 was indeed captivating and also memorizing. The procession departed Tropical Park in Miami, and traveled to its destination at Robbie's Marina in the Keys.
In addition to the procession, there was also a car show where special awards were given to the top vehicles on display and an ensuing commemorative party where many toasts and salutes were made to those who lost their lives that sad day and also to our many wounded warriors and first responders.
Everyone at Steeda Autosports proudly supports the Patriot Day Car Cruise and we hold in the highest esteem all of those who lost their life that day as well as all of our wounded warriors and first responders.

Steeda Supports the 4th Annual "Get Your Heart Racing" Event
This past weekend Ford sponsored the 4th annual Henry Ford Hospital "Get Your Heart Racing" charity event and Steeda Autosports was there to proudly support what has become one of the largest charity racing events to date. The annual event attracts racing and auto enthusiasts from all over the midwest and consistently raises record contributions to benefit the Henry Ford Hospital locally. Over the past 3 years "Get Your Heart Racing" has raised more than $ 1.8 million and the total will continue to grow once the final donations are tallied.
The event began with a Pit Party Reception on Friday evening in downtown Detroit's famous Eastern Market area. On display at the reception was the fabulous Borg Warner Indianapolis 500 Trophy (valued at over $ 3.5 million) along with an equally impressive assortment of historic and notable race and pace cars. Also included in the display were the Steeda sponsored American Iron series race cars belonging to Ford's own Robin Burnett and Anders Sjoblom. Another iconic vehicle on display was the Indianapolis 500 Lola race car driven by Detroit native Robbie Buhl, and the historic Indianapolis Ford Mustang Pace cars from 1965, 1979, and 1994.
This year Ford took the opportunity to feature the newest addition to the Mustang corral – the very special 2015 Mustang 50th Anniversary Edition which will be auctioned at the upcoming Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas. This unique 50 Year Limited Edition Ford Mustang carries the coveted badge # 1,964 referencing the first production year of Mustang, and it is # 50 of the special Limited Edition series. This sought after Mustang will be auctioned with all proceeds going to the "Get Your Heart Racing" charity. The auction is expected to attract and generate an elite group of competitive bidders and enthusiasts all vying to own a piece of Mustang history.
Attendees were treated to the facilities of the awesome Ford Motor Company's Dearborn Development Center – also known for the "Ford Test Track." To keep the adrenaline flowing, attendees were invited to sample the heart-pounding excitement of some fast laps as passengers with Ford's professional / celebrity drivers, or for those with a personal need for speed a few laps behind the wheel to test their skills. Ford and Steeda both provided an assortment of cars and trucks for enthusiasts to tackle some of the handling and off-road segments of the test track, and experience the excitement of a day at the track.
The Steeda / Rehagen Racing team drivers of Robin Burnett and Anders Sjoblom put on their racing suits and helmets to provide heart-pounding rides in their Steeda sponsored race cars for any adrenaline seekers willing to endure the high G forces generated by a fully prepared Steeda full race Mustang. Judging from the grins the long wait was worth every minute!
None of these wonderful activities would have been possible without the significant support of Ford Motor Company's Dearborn Development Center. As expected, the event also brought out Ford's top management team to help keep the donations and energy flowing.
Events like this take careful planning and support, and a special thanks is in order for John Felice, Ford Motor Company's Vice President of Sales and Marketing North America, and Raj Nair, Ford Motor Company Group Vice President of Global Product Development who generously donated their personal and professional effort to insure the success of such a worthwhile charity. In addition, we would like to recognize Lynn and Paul Alandt (Honorary Chairpersons for Get Your Heart Racing) and Roger Penske and Andra Rush, the most recent additions to the Honorary Committee, whose time and presence made this event so successful. Ford Motor Company, Steeda Autosports, along with many other key automotive suppliers are committed to finding a cure for heart disease.

The Best Supercharger for Your Mustang is…
At Steeda Autosports, our DNA mandates that we are constantly testing and pushing the levels of vehicle performance above and beyond the norm – all in the quest of ensuring that our customers have the option of purchasing the best performance products available anywhere. When it comes to superchargers, we have done a tremendous amount of testing on the dyno, on the street, at the drag strip and at the race track – and we can unequivocally state that there is only one type of supercharger that we have found that offers the sustained power and efficiency in an integrated package.
There are essentially two types of superchargers in the market today, a Roots type and a Centrifugal type – and there are major reasons why you should only consider one over all others. These reasons all are based on our real world performance evaluations, not marketing hype or driven by profits – rather these are our own observations after thousands upon thousands of miles of rigorous testing. Let us explain…
Roots Type Superchargers
Many auto manufacturers opt for the Roots type supercharger for a variety of reasons, the most prevalent reason being lower Tier 1 cost. It should be noted that this type of supercharger is not actually a compressor – rather it is just an air mover. Specifically, air moves on the housing sides within the rotors voids. By virtue of moving air into the cylinder heads at a higher rate than the engine consumes it, pressure is built. But sustained efficiency and power are lacking for a variety of reasons, namely:
Heat Soak Effect – This is a major issue with the Roots design that is sold today and it simply cannot be avoided with this type of design. Whenever you operate a Roots type supercharger, it is probable that almost half of the input power is consumed to make heat rather than power – essentially creating a parasitic power drain on the engine. We have equipped our own race cars with the best Roots system money can buy, only to discover that after just a few laps the engine becomes heat soaked and power levels dramatically decrease. Even with extensive intercoolers, you simply cannot overcome this devastating issue – we have tried to no avail. Advocates of the Roots systems will usually showcase dyno runs on cool engines, preferring not to show a real world effect that driving on the street or racing would have as the engine warms up and loses its performance gains.
Weight – We all know that weight is the enemy of performance, a typical Roots supercharger easily outweighs a Centrifugal type and in addition, it requires a more substantial cooling system – adding yet even more weight to the supercharger package – and this weight is at the worst possible location, by being principally on top of the engine raising your vehicle's center of gravity.
Efficiency – Adiabatic efficiency (the real measure of a supercharger's efficiency) is where the Roots type fails miserably with efficiency ratios typically in the low 50% or below range. This causes excessive heat build-up and parasitic drag on your engine. Centrifugal type superchargers operate typically in the mid to upper 70% range. The major cause of this inefficiency is based on the inherent design of the Roots system where you have reversion occurring as the rotors open up and pressure is normalized in the manifold.
Boost curve – Advocates of Roots systems point out that they make their power at low RPMs. While this is true, this feature is actually much less helpful than it appears. Realizing that excessive boost cannot be utilized at these low speeds due to traction limitations and also on most engines the ignition timing must be significantly retarded to avoid destructive detonation. Additionally, low engine speed is not where power is made… rather it is the higher RPM band where you want your boost and subsequent power and this is where the centrifugal supercharger really shines.
Removal of Tuned Intake Runners – Installation of a Roots type supercharger requires removal of the tuned intake runners – resulting in a loss of those free benefits – whereas a Centrifugal Supercharger leverages the tuned intake runner benefit to the max.
Centrifugal Superchargers
Serious performance aficionados and racers know the real benefits that centrifugal superchargers provide. When you want serious supercharger power, power that is available before your engine gets heat soaked, and power that is available when you need it – then the only alternative is a centrifugal supercharger. As part of our real world testing, we have tried all of the most popular superchargers under essentially all conditions. At the extreme level, when we equipped our #20 race car with a Vortech supercharger and ran some of the most grueling laps possible at Sebring, Daytona, and Palm Beach Raceway, we obtained absolutely superb results… far better and much more consistent results than when we had a Roots type installed on it. On our street cars we have put untold thousands of miles testing under virtually all conditions – hot, cold, wet, dry, stop light to stop light, and on the drag strip and autocross track… all with the same truly exceptional results. Vortech supercharger systems are a great value. Dollar for dollar, Vortech systems deliver more horsepower than virtually any other method of upgrade. Also, driven normally, gas mileage often increases rather than decreases.
With power that does not fade, superior efficiency, and full 50 state emission compliance, the Vortech Centrifugal Supercharger earns the Steeda Seal of Approval as being our preferred supercharger of choice.
Attention ALL S550 – 2015 Mustang Owners
For those power hungry early adopters of the S550 2015 Mustang GT that want enhanced power from their 5.0L engine, rest assured that Steeda Autosports is actively working with Vortech Engineering on the development and distribution of a supercharger solution. We are expecting great things from this complete package and look forward to an announcement shortly on this performance package.
Additionally, you can count on Steeda Autosports for ALL of your performance needs for this new Mustang model – from supercharger kits, suspension enhancements, and wheel/tire fitments to many more items, we are your "One Stop Shop" that will be specializing in S550 2015 Mustang performance parts.

Steeda and Rehagen Racing Team Up to Win
For the 2014 NASA Race Season, Steeda drivers Robin Burnett and Anders Sjoblom have teamed up Rehagan Racing in an all out effort to win the East Coast American Iron NASA Championships at Road Atlanta. The partnership of Steeda and Rehagen Racing is a natural because it puts together the two top racing organizations and leverages the strengths of each – the end result is a winning formula for success.
So far this season, the race partnership has had tremendous success that started with the season opening race at the famed Mid Ohio race-course in April. When the checkered flag dropped, the duo took the top two podium honors in both races of the weekend with Robin Burnett in his Grabber Blue Steeda taking both wins and Anders Sjoblom shadowing his every move by finishing a very close second in each race and also setting the fastest lap time of the entire weekend.
The next test was the long haul down to Atlanta for the NASA Southeast "June Jam" where the Steeda/Rehagen Racing Mustangs of Sjoblom and Burnett once again locked out the front row in qualifying by having the two fastest qualifying times against all other competitors. When the green flag dropped, Anders Sjoblom led the race from flag-to-flag with Robin Burnett in close hot pursuit. At the checkered flag, it was another repeat victory for the team with Anders proudly on top of the podium!
There was more on track action at a local "3 Ball Racing" charity event at Waterford Hill Raceway in Metro Detroit. At this charity event to benefit the Karmanos Cancer Institute, Robin was able to take charity donors for some "spirited" rides around the track showing off his Steeda /Rehagen Racing Mustang and his superior car control skills – and very effectively raising additional funds for a well deserving charity.
The Steeda/Rehagen Team has one more event in Atlanta prior to the Championship runoffs in late August – you can surely bet that the team will be ready to continue their winning ways!

4th of July Message from Steeda Autosports
Oftentimes we may forget the real meaning of the 4th of July Holiday, hence it is very important that at this time we focus on the American spirit and the people that defend it, because it is what separates us from the rest of the world. As President Ronald Reagan once stated: "…putting people first has always been America's secret weapon. It's the way we've kept the spirit of our revolution alive—a spirit that drives us to dream and dare, and take great risks for a greater good. It's the spirit of Fulton, the Wright brothers and Lindbergh, and of all our astronauts. It's the spirit of Joe Louis, Babe Ruth, and a million others who may have been born poor, but who would not be denied their day in the Sun".
Special thanks should be provided this and every day to the defenders of our liberty – the men and women of the United States Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard, and other public servants, as they make great sacrifices to ensure that our freedom and liberties are protected from compromise and are never taken away from us. We are all indebted to them for their countless sacrifices and endless dedication they provide.
There is so much to celebrate this holiday weekend – so together let's reflect, be thankful, and enjoy some quality relaxing time with our loved ones and most importantly – have some fun!
Steeda supports and employs American workers and Veterans.
All the Best,
From The Entire Steeda Staff

Steeda Takes 1st Place at SCCA Enduro Championship Race
The SCCA race action at the Homestead-Miami Speedway this past weekend was hot, with blistering near 100 degree conditions on the track and over 120 degree conditions in the race car, and the race results were even hotter when the #20 Steeda prepared Mustang not only captured both pole positions but also finished in first place beating all other cars including various built Porsche, BMW, Corvette race cars and purpose built race cars.
Using approximately half of the famed Homestead-Miami oval and all of the infield road course, the circuit was a challenging one that incorporated high speed areas where speeds exceeded 150 mph and slower hairpin turns where you were forced to slow to a crawl to negotiate a 180° tight hairpin turns. In order to win at this circuit, a properly prepared car needed to be able to have the power and stability for high speeds, and also the cornering ability to stay tight in the turns and out-handle everyone else. Suffice to say – the Steeda G-Trac suspension system was up to the task as it was able to overcome all challenges and perform as it was designed and engineered to do.
For the first race SARRC race, our President and CEO Dario Orlando took our #20 Steeda Q650R and qualified for the pole position and when it came to the race, he never looked back as he was able to finish in first place – an indication of even greater accomplishments that were to be forthcoming later that day (more on that later). During this initial race, a challenging Corvette lacked the braking required for a hairpin turn – crashed into the rear of our car and went careening off course. The suspension system of the #20 Steeda maintained its composure and remained on line – even when it was subjected to the crash forces from the Corvette that could have unbalanced the car and also sent it out of control…further testament to the road hugging attributes of the Steeda suspension system.
The next race was a 1.5 hour-long endurance race that would be sure to challenge the most seasoned drivers, cars, and crews. This race required mandatory pit stop and driver changes and when you factor in the blistering heat, it was going to be a real dual at the track. With 35 cars entered, our Vice President Glen Vitale was able to qualify on the pole position with the fastest time overall. When the green flag dropped, Dario was able to pilot the Q650R expertly and was able to hold off many challenges as the Q650R performed as intended. At the 45 minute mark, Dario pitted and our own Glen took the wheel piloting the Q650R. With Glen's driving attitude of "drive it like I stole it" – he further increased the lead that Dario provided him and when the checkered flag dropped, the Steeda Q650R lapped the ENTIRE field in route to a commanding victory in this most challenging endurance race.
It should be noted that for both races, our Steeda Q650R was equipped with Nitto DOT tires… yes… we used a street tire on our car to further test and subsequently prove the capabilities of the Nitto brand verses the full competition only tires that the other competitors were running. The Nitto tires showed their superiority of design and construction by lasting for the entire race and by providing the superior corning and wear attributes that the Nitto brand is most famous for.
Our #20 Steeda Q650R serves as a rolling test-bed for many of the suspension items we engineer, develop and sell. Unlike most other companies, we have a guiding philosophy that mandates we test under the most severe conditions the various performance parts we develop with the realization that putting them into actual race conditions that it will either prove the functionality and durability of the part, or it will destroy it. That way our customers are guaranteed that a Steeda performance part is the best it can possibly be and that it will be sure to live up to the rigors that they may subject their cars to without fail. We call it "Race Tested Confidence".

Memorial Day Message From Steeda President, Dario Orlando
Memorial Day is much more than a welcome break from work, a time for outdoor barbecues or a day at the beach – it is the time for us to take stock of the present, reflect on the past, and renew our commitment to the future of our great country.
Today, as in the past, there are problems in this country that must be solved and challenges that must be met – nevertheless, it is the time for all Americans to come together and pay tribute to all of our Service Men and Women who have fought and died in defense of our country and for our freedom. It is a day to for all to take time and reflect on the service and sacrifice of these heroes, and to honor those American families for whom Memorial Day is another day of longing for their loved ones.
On behalf of everyone at Steeda Autosports, we proudly salute all of our fallen heroes and sincerely thank them and their families for the freedom we all enjoy today. Additionally, we honor those brave Americans that today serve in our Armed Forces as they make continued sacrifices as they protect the American freedom and liberty that we so preciously enjoy and cherish.
God Bless the USA

Steeda Celebrates Mustang 50th at Charlotte
This past week marked the 50th Anniversary of the Ford Mustang and there were plenty of celebrations around the country to celebrate this once in a lifetime event for the original Pony Car. From New York, Las Vegas, Charlotte, and in many other small towns across America, the faithful all paid homage to Americas original pony car – The Ford Mustang. Steeda Autosports was to be a presenting sponsor of the 50th Anniversary Celebration at the Charlotte Motor Speedway where approximately 4000 Mustangs and over 100,000 people converged together to make it one huge Mustang Birthday Celebration to remember forever.
In the corporate display area, we showcased the following four Steeda Mustangs in our display – all of which have made a significant contribution to the rich history of Mustangs and Steeda over the years:
1993 Steeda Cobra R
Steeda Autosports was actively involved in the 1993 Cobra R development program by incorporating the knowledge we had acquired in our racing program to the SVT engineers. One of our contributions to the car was assisting SVT with the design of the vehicles braking system – ensuring that the completed design would have the stamina and capabilities to stand up to the rigors of road racing. Ford ended up building only 107 of the1993 Cobra "R" models – each of them in Vibrant Red and they were available for sale only to licensed race-drivers. At Sebring International Raceway in 1993, our Steeda Cobra R was the very first Cobra R to have success on a racetrack by finishing first in its inaugural race – a huge feat at the time for a new model incorporating new technologies for its time.
1995 Steeda Cobra R
In the wake of the 1993 Cobra R's success, SVT engineers embarked on a mission to developed a more powerful and more competitive R-model based on the 1995 Cobra. Once again SVT engineers collaborated with Steeda Autosports on the development of this model as we provided key racing insights and engineering assistance to bring the car to reality. One of our top priorities was the need for a more powerful engine and more fuel capacity. In response, SVT incorporated an SVT modified version of Ford's 5.8 liter Windsor V8, re-engineered to produce 300 horsepower. To provide for longer time on the track racing, we collaborated on the inclusion of a 22-gallon racing fuel cell that increased the cars time on the track and less time in the pits refilling. Weight-savings was targeted, so there was no back seat, radio, power windows/seats or air-conditioning-not even fog lights, which were omitted to provide ducts for getting cool air onto the front disk brakes. Heavy-duty progressive-rate springs, thicker stabilizer bars and a front strut tower brace helped improve handling. Only 250 vehicles were built, available only in white with Saddle Cloth interior, each with a unique center-tiered fiberglass hood tall enough to clear the engine and induction system. As with the 1993 Cobra R, only owners of a valid racing license were able to obtain one of these cars. Our Steeda 1995 Cobra R was the first Mustang to win a pole position in professional IMSA GS Class competition – a major feat and endorsement of our engineering successes. It's success didn't end there, as it set a new track record at Daytona in the inaugural IMSA Endurance race. In 1996 at the Texas Motor Speedway, the Steeda Cobra R won it's first IMSA race for a Mustang in over a decade by lapping the 65 car field twice during the grueling 6-hour endurance race. Success continued in with first place finishes at both Mosport Park and Daytona – proving that the Steeda Cobra R program was a huge success.
2010 Steeda StreetFighter
Destined to reign supreme in the Pony Wars, this 690HP muscle machine is proof positive that Steeda Autosports builds the best performing Mustangs available anywhere. An ideal Mustang – a formidable weekend warrior on the racetrack or drag-strip that can also be comfortably driven daily. Outfitted with the most extensive standard suspension upgrades ever included on a Steeda production vehicles – including our Watt's Link Suspension system – this performance Mustang can easily pull 1.2gs. With a broad range of brutal power on demand, it turns 0-60 times under 4 seconds and quarter mile times comfortably in the 10 second range. There is simply no other serialized Mustang available today that offers the performance, styling, and performance attitude of this dedicated StreetFighter.
2014 Steeda Q450 Enforcer
Showcasing our current line of performance-bred parts for the ford Mustang, this Q-Series Steeda Mustang is the flagship of our serialized vehicle program and is specially designed for hardcore, power-hungry performance enthusiasts who want the most Mustang muscle for their money. This performance stallion provides plenty of pure pony power to humble the competition every time you turn the ignition key and hit the throttle. Power means nothing without control, so the Q450 precision-engineered suspension and chassis modifications keep the driver in command and deliver an unbeatable level of performance. With strategic modifications all tuned to maximize performance and provide optimum handling, the Q450 is a no-holds-barred approach that delivers pure hardcore driving excitement.
During show hours in the paddock area there were multiple Steeda representatives on hand to supporting on track activities – including our "Ace in the Hole" Master Mechanic Steve Chichisola, Regional and National American Iron Champion Driver Robin Burnett, Camaro-Mustang Challenge Champion James Ray, and the NASA – SE Champion Jim Edwards. Each of these great racing enthusiasts shared racing knowledge and experiences and were on hand to provide some lucky show attendees a first hand look at their race cars as well as a ride-of-their life. Following is a profile of just two of the Steeda cars that were blistering around the track:
Steeda Q650R
Built by our renown "Skunk Works Team" at Steeda Autosports, the Q650R serves as a rolling test bed for continuing refinement and development of our track tested and race proven performance parts and accessories. On the outside, the Q650R is outfitted on the outside with key Steeda's aerodynamic parts (e.g. Steeda Race Wing, Steeda Competition Front Fascia). Under the hood, the Ford modular engine is boosted with the Steeda/Vortech supercharger system and the race tuning is handled by our unique Steeda Performance Calibration – the end result… over 650 horsepower of heart pounding excitement. Inside the Steeda Tri-Ax Remote Racing provides an extremely short throw with precise action needed for the race track. Under the car is where some really advanced Steeda suspension technology is deployed. From the advanced adjustable full coil over suspension system, our proprietary Watt's Linkage, to our D Spec Shocks and bump steer kit, the entire catalog of Steeda's superior suspension parts as well as Nitto's famed NT01 high performance tires – and some extra experimental suspension enhancements as well – have been integrated into this car so as to make it the BEST HANDLING car we have ever driven on a race track. The end result: An ultra high performance – muscular race car that provides instant acceleration, superior handling, and great fear into the minds of our competitors.
Steeda Q450R
Driven by Regional and National American Iron Champion Robin Burnett, this 2010 Steeda Q450R regularly competes in the American Iron Series that provides a highly competitive forum for Mustangs, Camaros, and Firebirds to race against each other. The power of the modified Ford Modular engine is delivered through a Tremex 3650 5 speed transmission and complemented by a precision tuned Steeda suspension system that helps deliver all that added power to the wheels while keeping the driver in total control – perfect for weekend warrior racing at tracks around America.
Overall, everyone completely enjoyed their time at the 50th Anniversary Celebration. The outstanding camaraderie, great cars, and on fast on-track experiences all made it a truly exciting manner to celebrate Mustangs first 50 years. Congratulations to Ford Motor Company and Team Mustang for providing enthusiasts an outstanding pony car for the past 50 years!

Lake Erie Wine Country's Wine & Chocolate Weekend
A romantic dinner in the city of Trois-Rivi�res, midway between Montreal and Quebec City, had me speaking French over steak au poivre and the best cabernet I've ever tasted. The memory is so fresh I can still hear the click of heels on cobblestone streets, the murmur of nuns from the Ursuline Monastery nearby, and the roar of Formula race cars in the Trois-Rivi�res Grand Prix. But do you think I can remember the name of that wine?
When you find a wine you love, steam off the label or at least write down the name and vintage. And be sure to make a note in your journal about where and when you tasted it, because it's the experience, and the people you're with, that make a wine unforgettable.
In the datebook this February are new memories in the making. Whether you're planning an escape with your Valentine or an all-girls getaway, you will want to order tickets soon for Lake Erie Wine Country's Wine & Chocolate Weekend, Feb. 15-17. It's always a sellout.
This is no ordinary box of bonbons. You'll be treated to imaginative wine and food pairings at 23 wineries along a 50-mile trail that stretches from Harborcreek, Pa., to Silver Creek, N.Y. Each dish incorporates the precious ingredient that has been known to woo lovers, quiet the Mayan gods, and keep the Spanish conquistadors in power for 100 years until they spilled the (cocoa) beans to a cadre of clever Italian merchants.
Now that the word is out, winemakers have discovered the benefits of pairing wine and chocolate.
Liberty Vineyards Winery in Sheridan, N.Y., will serve Cocoa and Spice Pork Tenderloin at this year's event along with their latest harvest wine, Trifection, a semisweet and sophisticated blend of three white grape varieties. The recipe at right is included in a booklet that each ticket holder will receive.
Courtyard Wineries, in North East, partnered with Sue Mills of Crescent Catering to create a drizzle sauce for her decadent Chocolate Applesauce Cake. The sauce is made with Courtyard's Chocopelli wine, reminiscent of Kokopelli, the southwestern flute-playing deity that chases away winter and brings on the spring. Kokopelli is also known as a symbol of fertility, music, dance and mischief, so better be careful.
Couple that with Sparkling Ponds' Fatal Attraction, served with Cupid's Chocolate Droplets in their cozy, new fireplace room, and you could really be in trouble.
But what's in a label? LEL

Recently while watching the evening news and seeing the reports of wild fires, flooding and tornadoes it makes me appreciate how fortunate we are here in Central New York. Sure, we have some serious winter weather here, and sure, it tends to last a little longer than we'd like . . . but I'll take a blizzard over a wild fire any day of the week!
So with that being said; enjoy any and all of your time off – and wear sunscreen .]]>
Don't forget to look up every now and then . . .
Almost everyone I know has someone in their family, be it a grandmother, aunt, uncle or cousin that can make a batch of killer cinnamon buns from scratch. Close your eyes now and focus for just a moment on the aroma of cinnamon buns baking in the oven . . . mmmmmmmm, yes it's a heavenly scent for sure.
In my family we had an aunt on my father's side of the family that was our Cinnamon Bun Queen. Unfortunately, I never got my hands on the recipe before she passed away ( ). However, my daughter Michelle just happened to have a good friend that shared the recipe her family treasures, and a couple of Christmases ago Michelle gave that recipe a try. Oh my goodness did we ever strike gold! My daughter has perfected those cinnamon buns, icing and all and we couldn't be happier. She's turned that recipe into her own Christmas tradition and during our recent visit to her house over the holiday we enjoyed every morsel of the batch she baked.
I imagine at this point you're probably thinking I'm going to end this blog with the recipe; you would be wrong. Get your own.
We had a big turkey, can't remember how many pounds but it was big enough to feed us all. All the traditional fixin's were part of the big feast, with the turkey of course being the star of the show. It was my day to shine, and I was ready! I had never cooked for that many people, and they were going to be my guinea pigs for my first shot at a turkey dinner.
Everything was really going quite nicely. I made the stuffing, stuffed the bird and put it in the oven and let nature take its course. The side dishes were situated, everything was cooking . . . I was feeling great about my first Thanksgiving meal. Fast forward to 'time to take the turkey out of the oven,' which I do. I haul the roasting pan out and set it on the counter so the turkey can 'rest' on a cutting board for a bit. I call for my husband to give me a hand getting it out of the roaster. He walks into the kitchen and starts to laugh, which causes others to wonder what's so funny. I had no idea what at this point most everyone was laughing about when they looked at the turkey and was feeling a little worried about the situation. He tells me that I've cooked the bird upside down (breast side down). Ha! No kidding I say, and join in laughing.
I have to tell you, his grandmother spoke fondly for years about this particular Thanksgiving turkey. She said she'd never had a more delicious, tender and juicy turkey in her life! And you know what? I see now that some famous chefs (Alton Brown for one) say upside down is the only way to do it!
So no matter which way you put your turkey in the oven, I hope you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving.]]>
Here's a great mayo substitute from my pal Joe Whiting:
-Plain Yogurt
-Grated Cheese
-Black Pepper
DIRECTIONS: Mash the tuna and add the mayo, mustard, onion, celery, carrots, bread crumbs and mix it all up. Add the other ingredients and slightly toss to mix. Joe's Spread can be used instead of the mayo, or as a little spread on a wrap. I like it on crusty bread or stuffed in a tomato.]]>
I wandered into the Goodwill in Cicero and found that most people donate them haha! So, I did some quick research and found out a craft that you could do with those old tin cans… make them into a fruit basket!
Here's how I made it in literally less than 10 minutes…
You'll need:
Ignore the gaudy pictures on the outside. When I walk through a place like Goodwill, I imagine everything with a coat of white paint. That way you look at the shapes rather the images.
You'll have to do a couple different spray/drying sessions to make sure you get all of it. You'll want to make sure the bottom, sides and insides are all painted. The tops of the tins you wont need for this project.
I decided that this was going to be a pretty boring fruit basket if there wasn't any kind of design, so I used painters tape to make some stripes on the tins with gold paint. Maybe you want to make swirls, dots or bows – what ever is your fancy, have some fun with it!
Use the E6000 glue or other craft glue to hold the candle holder to the tins. Let it dry for at least an hour

Personal Websiteeliepstein.com epsteinorchestralexcerpts.com
I focus on the whole person and tailor my teaching to each individual's needs. My approach is about developing excellent biomechanics and also freeing students to express their feelings, stories and selves with their audience.
Eli Epstein joined Boston Conservatory in 2005 and is an instructor of French horn, chamber music, brass pedagogy, and "The Creative Musician."
Prior to joining the faculty at Boston Conservatory, Epstein was second horn of the Cleveland Orchestra (1987-2005), and horn professor at the Cleveland Institute of Music (1989-2005).
Epstein has appeared several times as soloist with the Philadelphia and Cleveland Orchestras,on chamber programs at Music Academy of the West, where he was on faculty (2005-2013), and Aspen Music Festival, where he served as principal horn of the Aspen Chamber Symphony (2000-2012). Epstein has collaborated with the Borromeo and Brentano String Quartets, and has served as guest principal horn of the Rhode Island Philharmonic, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, and Saint Louis Symphony. Occasionally, Epstein performs with the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
On faculty at New England Conservatory and director of the NEC Youth Brass Ensemble since 2009, Epstein has conducted college ensembles at Boston Conservatory, Cleveland Institute of Music, Longy School of Music, Music Academy of the West, NEC, and El Sistema in Venezuela.
Advocating the idea that music can be a meaningful and uplifting force in society, Epstein won Grand Prize in the Entrepreneur the Arts Contest (2009) for his
Inside Out Concerts, and appeared on Heartbeat of America with William Shatner.
Epstein's book, Horn Playing from the Inside Out, was celebrated in The Horn Call, as "an overwhelmingly stimulating and productive treatise...its positive influence on the profession will be immediate and lasting." Orchestral Excerpts for Low Horn, Epstein's album released in 2014, was also praised in The Horn Call (2015): "Every performance provides a sonic paragon, a rubric worthy of emulation by student and professional alike."
A graduate of the Eastman School of Music, Epstein was awarded Bachelor of Music with high distinction in 1979.

The HP SureStore Ultrium 230 Tape Drive
The HP Ultrium 230 low-voltage differential (LVD) tape drive is fast. It can write tape faster than your disk subsystem can supply data. If you want to stream, you'll need several systems feeding it at once, which made it a good choice for our application of backing up several systems each night. The 230 is about twice as fast as the 215 model, but also costs significantly more.
We bought one of the first HP Ultrium generation 1 tape drives, together with the Qualstar TLS-8211 tape library robot. Both are connected to an Adaptec PCI SCSI controller. It has been in service since December 2000, and we have done both file and system restores for the systems it protects.
The robot and tape drive are available in standalone and rackmount configurations. We ultimately chose the rackmount, and I advise others to do the same: something this big sitting on the floor will draw attention from the cleaning people. In the rack, the device occupies 36.75" (21U) of space, and it is a two-man job to get it installed. It is best to mount the cabinet with the robot, and then install the tape drive and magazine. The magazine has an 11-tape capacity. The tape drive slides easily into place once the cabinet is mounted.
Our selection of the device was driven by two considerations. First, the device had to be able to hold all of our data. The single-largest server potentially holds over 200GB of data, uncompressed, and the other servers roughly match that. The second requirement was that the data had to be written during the off-hours. We cannot have backups running during the day. We prefer full backups; restoration is much simpler in this case. Since periodic full backups must be made anyway, we do it consistently.
This drove us to a trial of the LVD tape subsystem, which promised to write 50GB/hour and hold 100GB (raw) on a tape. Our informal tests show that the drive can really stream data at these speeds. Unfortunately, these same tests show that none of our systems can supply data at this rate! The tape drive can accept data far, far faster than a RAID-5 controller can supply them.
Our solution was to prepare a backup aggregation program. It collects backup streams from several computers and writes them all to tape together with headers identifying their origins. Several computers, combining their efforts, come closer to keeping the tape drive streaming. A companion program deaggregates the streams, providing the desired stream for restoration. Each system supplies a tar stream, and on restore the system receives the same.
Our installation combined the tape drive with a tape-loading robot. We use the mtx program to operate the robot, under the control of a fairly simple shell script. The shell script determines the next tape number, invokes the robot to load the tape, and starts the backup program. When the tape program is done, another script unloads the tape. For convenience, we throw a sheet on the printer showing the date and tape number used.
The robot and tape drive can be moody, and like small children will misbehave in order to receive attention. Loading and unloading the tape require care. If not done correctly, the subsystem will achieve a state in which one must manually extract the tape. Sometimes a power cycle is even required.
The tape drive tracks usage to decide when it needs cleaning. When the tape drive wants to be cleaned, it really wants to be cleaned: be sure you have a cleaning tape in the shop.
Preparing to use a tape consists of two stages: directing the robot to pick a tape and put it in the drive, and then encouraging the tape drive to do the actual load. The mtx command handles the former. In order to use the tape, however, you must then wait for it to become ready. We use a shell loop, waiting until the mt rewind command returns successfully when the drive has loaded the tape.
After the tape is written, we want to unload it and put it back in the magazine. Normally, when the tape-writing program finishes and closes the device, it will wait some time for the tape to rewind. The tape will be left in a loaded state, and in this drive the robot cannot remove it and return it to the magazine.
You must use mt rewoffl or something similar to ensure that the tape is rewound and unloaded. Our experience is that, due to the length of the tape, the first issuance of the command may return prematurely. To avoid problems, wait several seconds and re-issue the command. The rule "This time, for sure!" applies.
Only when the tape is really unloaded can the robot pluck it from the drive and return it to the magazine. We have found that occasionally, if the robot tries to pluck the tape prior to unloading, the tape drive will get grumpy. This can sometimes be cured by manually pressing the unload button and waiting; it is often necessary to cycle power and then press the unload button.
So as long as you don't do anything to upset its routine, the robot will take good care of your tapes. The drive is big and fast. If you have a regular need to back up a lot of data, this combination may be right for you.
The tape drive and library are available from Zzyzx. They were kind enough to provide us with an evaluation unit that we kept for about a month, in order to determine suitability. We found that we would require the optional bar code reader, and we preferred a rackmount model over the freestanding unit. Zzyzx took back the evaluation unit and supplied the rackmount unit, with a bar code reader. While we have not needed to do so, the unit can be painlessly upgraded with a second tape drive, and/or more tape cartridges.

Re: Product Review: The HP SureStore Ultrium 230 Tape Drive
Just wondered what was meant by:
"The tape drive tracks usage to decide when it needs cleaning. When the tape drive wants to be cleaned, it really wants to be cleaned: be sure you have a cleaning tape in the shop"
Is this the cleaning light coming on?
Re: Product Review: The HP SureStore Ultrium 230 Tape Drive
Is this the cleaning light coming on?
At first. Ignore it, and it will stop writing tapes after a while. Then you have to beg the money people to order cleaning tapes, fast.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Alchemist Theatre's 'King Lear' reigns as family drama
Early in Friday's opening-night performance of Alchemist Theatre's "King Lear," Bo Johnson's aged king called for the map demonstrating his intended division of Britain among his three daughters. Lear's attendants dutifully unfurled it — with the bottom at the top and the top at the bottom. When they tried to hang the map up, it kept falling down.
Director Leda Hoffmann confirmed during intermission that this sequence wasn't planned. But such a topsy-turvy world aptly illustrates the disorder that descends on Britain once the hot-tempered Lear banishes his beloved Cordelia, counting on his remaining two daughters to keep him and Britain safe. »Read Full Article

As I look back at this blog, there are SO many great memories I have written. I've debated keeping this blog and revamping it again with how inconsistent I have been in writing new posts and staying current with life happenings. I think now is the time for me to actually work at updating this blog as often as I can. Even if its a short post or memory I want to remember. I've learned so much and have been through so much that I would love to look back and remember all those moments, and I can type a whole lot faster than I can write in my journal. So here's to new goals..at the end of the year. ha! I've got more time on my hands and more desire to actually write about something.
Now....time to get to work!

I am full professor of Economics at the University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne. This is my academic webpage where you can find information on my research and teachings. I have also a weblog called "Bargaining Game" where I regularly publish posts on various topics related to social sciences (especially economics) and philosophy of science.
Research topics, current projects and interests
My academic work broadly belongs to the so-called field of "philosophy of economics". I have a general interest in understanding how knowledge is produced in economics by investigating the nature and implications of the methods, theories and assumptions used by economists. This general interest is in particular applied to institutional economics, game theory, choice theory and normative economics. Crucially, I see economics both as a subject to study and as a set of tools, concepts and theories to be used in the philosophical inquiry.
I am currently working on three separate but interrelated general topics:
I also plan to work in a near future on the history, philosophy and methodology of what I call "microeconomic engineering" which basically corresponds to the work done by economists in the fields of market design and mechanism design.
More information can be found on my publications list and in the work in progress section. My complete CV can be downloaded here.
Recent News:
- My article "Sen's Criticism of Revealed Preference Theory and Its "Neo-Samuelsonian" Critique: A Methodological and Theoretical Assessment" has just been accepted in the Journal of Economic Methodology. It will be published in December 2016.
- Three new working papers are available: "Théorie des jeux et analyse économique des institutions" (in French), "Game Theory, Game Situations and Rational Expectations: A Dennettian View" and "Bayesianism and the Common Prior Assumption in Game Theory: Toward a Philosophy of Social Interactions?"
- My article "Institutions, Rule-Following and Game Theory" (a previous version was titled "Against the Eliminativist View of Institutions in Economics: Rule-Following and Game Theory") has just been accepted in Economics and Philosophy.
- My article "From Utilitarianism to Paternalism: When Behavioral Economics Meets Moral Philosophy" has just been accepted in the Revue de philosophie économique. It will be published in December 2015.
- Two new working papers are available: "Rule-Following and Constitutive Rules: A Reconciliation" and "Binmore's Naturalization of the Original Position: A Dilemma for Moral Naturalism and Conventionalism".
-My book is now available! Its title is L'institutionnalisme historique et le rapport entre théorie et histoire en économie (Classiques Garnier). It is a slightly modified version of the first two parts of my PhD thesis.

If you're preparing for a fantasy hockey draft and you're trying to figure out which member of the St. Louis Blues you should target first, NHL.com has your answer. David Backes was named as one of the league's top-50 player in the world of fantasy hockey. Specifically, he came in 35th on their list and was the lone representative from the Blues.
Here's what NHL.com had to say about Backes:
In the past five years, only four players have had a season with 25-plus goals, 55-plus points, 100-plus PIMs and a rating of plus-10 or better. Backes did it last season and could do so again in 2014-15.
Backes is one of few forwards in the NHL who contribute across multiple categories. In leagues where penalty minutes are a good thing (most leagues), Backes is a prized asset. Though his 2010-11 where he scored 31 times and added 31 assists seems like an outlier, Backes is still a worthy option of a second or third-round pick on draft day.

Dear Residents,
Over the past
several years the
Borough has been
monitoring the
construction site at
521 Livingston
Street (the old Cost
Cutters Building)
regarding numerous
safety concerns.
Last week our
Official made an
inspection of the
property and found
what he believed
were serious
structural issues.
The borough
contacted an outside
structural engineer
Maser Consulting
P.A. who provided
the borough with the
attached report.
Once it was
confirmed that the
building was
structurally unsound
and an unsafe
condition exists to
the businesses as
well as the patrons
it was the decision
of the Borough to
condemn the property
and force the
evacuation of all
businesses to
protect the safety
and welfare of all.
Please contact the
local business owner
or Daibes Management
at 201-840-0050 and
ask for Danny Daibes
if you need
assistance in
obtaining your
property. Please do
not enter the site
as it is unsafe.
The safety of our
residents is our
number one priority.

Brazil's local debenture market should see an increase in volumes and a well-needed dose of issuer diversification if the country's interest rates reach single digits and stay there, say bankers and investors. Lower rates could break pension funds' addiction to government paper as they would have to seek yields in corporate debt, spurring an expertise in credit analysis among investors. At least that is the hope. "Pensions will...

In the forward to this fourth edition of Osteoarthritis, Dr Henry Mankin, an editor of previous editions, proclaims, "This is a great book—a treasure for the physician and basic scientist and indeed an important contribution to the successful diagnosis and treatment of patients with osteoarthritis." He has summarized it perfectly, for this book is a wonderful resource for rheumatologists, orthopedists, physiatrists, primary care physicians, medical students, and physicians in training, as well as basic and clinical researchers interested in the biology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of persons with osteoarthritis. The editors have produced a textbook that fulfills their stated goals of reaching these audiences in both the clinical and research worlds.

|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
A politician who did not to interfere in politics[edit]
I removed this as blatant anti-Cixi POV but it was good enough to preserve here: Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang "was an excellent politician who did not to interfere in politics, unlike the notorious Empress Dowager Cixi. However, when the conditions required, she rendered her efforts." — AjaxSmack 23:53, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Why there are no links to such articles as Ashina or Descent from Genghis Khan? --Ghirla-трёп- 13:02, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Modern relevance[edit]
Since Mongols and Mongolians have never used surnames throughout history, this entire section was nonsense, despite the cited "sources". At best, the information given was a grave misunderstanding, at worst it was an elaborate hoax. I have rewritten it based on a source that actually knows what it is talking about. --Latebird 10:22, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
I removed the whole section, as it looked like some fringe theory and unsupported by mainstream sources. It was added two years ago by an IP whose only other edit, on the same day, looks like exactly the same kind of conjecture. Yaan 11:32, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
- Since the passage has been re-added: Please provide mainstream sources that the name Borjigin derives from a prince/general that (if it can be confirmed to have existed at all) lived three unruly centuries earlier. I have seen the name interpreted as being derived from some duck species, but not from some Uighur prince. Yaan 17:17, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Boru really means wolf in old turkish so the story about the uyghur wolf prince sounds plausible. If the name of the family of Genghis Khan itself is turkish why is it so unbelievable that genghis khan may have turkic roots? Unless you deny the existence of a clan by the name of borjigin altogether. In a lot of sources the physical appearance of genghis khan is said to have been more european than that of other mongolians. This is in accordance with the uyghur/turkic roots theory. Also some of the initial tribes that were united under genghis khan were either turkic or mongolian-turkic mix and eventually the majority of genghis khan's army/empire was turkic so the history of the turks is intertwined with that of the mongols. We originated from the same people and region. I think you shouldn't delete information before you are sure that the information is incorrect. Don't let your nationalist feelings cloud your judgment. If you are going to delete everything that is not properly sourced you can delete most of whikipedia. Ibrahim4048 18:11, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is not supposed about theories that sound plausible or are believable, it's about verifiable information. See also WP:VERIFY. In this special case, I find it highly implausible that a relationship can be reliably established between some person that lived (if it even existed) three centuries before Genghis. Those centuries saw the rise and fall of both the Kirgiz and the Kidan states in Mongolia, and between the fall of the Liao and the rise of Genghis Khan a century of chaos. But all that doesn't matter, all that matters is that you need some mainstream sources even (or especially) for what you deem plausible. There are tons of literature on Genghis Khan and the Mongol empire, so it should be possible to find something good, even in English.
- Again, I don't care what 'bor' means in turkish (in mongolian it's "brown" btw, wolf would be 'chono', but that doesn't matter either). Nor do I care whether one can find some other words that sound similar to the other two syllabes (like 'jig' = "something" in modern Mongolian). I'm well aware that some of the tribes in the Mongolian steppes in the 13th century were turkic, but that doesn't mean Genghis was.Yaan 08:18, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
I merged Borjigin with Chingisid, Chinggisid. Although, every Borjigin can't be counted as Chingisid, it is Mongolian Royal family, which was derived from Chingis Khaan's ancestors as you all know.--Enerelt (talk) 08:16, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if this is the optimal result. Although the two topics are closely related, they don't describe the same thing. You already noticed that there is only a partial overlap. --Latebird (talk) 12:28, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
The meaning of Borjigin[edit]
Does anybody knows the meaning of Borjigin?
I am very curious about the Etymology of Borjigin.
|This talk page is for discussion on how to improve the Borjigin article.
If you would like to ask questions about the subject, please address them to the Reference desk.
- There are lots of theories around the term. I read that the western writers say that the Borjigin means blue spar color. However, there is also thought that it is derived from the Mongolian word, Boro, meaning brown.--Enerelt (talk) 09:14, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- Strangely enough, seems like wild duck is a good candidate. From de Rachewiltz' translation of the Secret History, p. 238: "The etymology of the name Borjigin is uncertain. The unreliable interpretation given by Rasid (borjigin = 'man with dark blue eyes') accounts, through a further misunderstanding, also for the imaginary grey (pmo., mo. boro), or cat's eyes of Cinggis Qan, regularly ascribed to the conqueror by modern authors... More likely, borjigin derives from 'wild duck' + the suffic -gin (~ -kin)." —Joseph RoeTk•Cb, 22:29, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

I have once seen a Russian cargo plane made by one of these companies but I am not sure which one. Can anyone help me?
