DeKalb Medical's Adult Auxiliary Program celebrated its 40th anniversary on Thursday, Oct. 17 at the Annual Volunteer Banquet, which recognizes and thanks volunteers for their invaluable service to the health care organization. The largest volunteer group – the Auxiliary – installed a new president and board, and presented a check to the DeKalb Medical Foundation.
Annette Benefield is the new president, officially given the role in a transfer of the President's Pin from outgoing president Nancy Reed. New board members are Jeanne Knox – 1st Vice President, Joy Killum – 2nd Vice President, Nancy Reed – 3rd vice President, Frank Barrett – 4th Vice President, Frechia Barrett – Secretary, Anne Morris – Treasurer, Pam Long – Dogwood Gift Shop Representative and Ann Hord – Parliamentarian.
The check was for $71,000, proceeds from the Dogwood Gift Shop located on the North Decatur campus. These funds are designated for the upcoming renovations of the Dogwood Gift Shop.
Since the last banquet in October 2012, auxilians donated 39,347 hours of service at DeKalb Medical. Among this group are Highlights included 64 volunteers giving 19,811 hours to knit more than 3,800 hats to keep newborn babies warm. The Auxiliary's specialty sales raised enough funds to donate $30,555 to various departments within the hospital through the "Wish List" program.
Volunteers work in several areas of the three-campus organization, including the Dogwood Gift Shop, nursing units and Emergency Department. Their duties include anything from general secretarial work to restocking supplies to calming stressed patients. Currently, volunteers are preparing for the holiday season by decorating trees for sale in the gift shop.
Adults aren't the only volunteers at DeKalb Medical – 45 teenagers and 37 college students were chosen to volunteer this past summer.
Volunteers are often recognized internally, including during Volunteer Week in April 2013 when employees delivered appreciation through a series of personal notes and pictures.
Volunteers play a meaningful role in the daily operation of the hospital, and opportunities are available for teenagers, college students and adults – each with specific criteria for membership. Please visit http://www.DeKalbMedical.org to fill out an electronic application, or contact Elisabeth Nark, Volunteer Services Manager at 404.501.1344 or email firstname.lastname@example.com if you would like to learn more about the volunteer program.

Mason shuttles are free for students so people could take the shuttle to go to anywhere around Fairfax or get onto the Vienna Metro station to go into DC
You need money to get places in reasonable time
I love the shuttles and use it to go to the metro.
Easy to get around, there are plenty of busses. Exploring yay.
The Mason shuttle system is located in only one part of the campus which is hard walk from dorm to dorm. The shuttles are not big enough to fit as many people on the weekends. It is not great overall.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Name a popular place in Fairfax, and chances are one of the Mason shuttles takes students to that location for free. Whether students are looking to go to popular shopping spots like Fair Oaks Mall or Fair Lakes Center or the Metro, Mason offers convenient and free service to each via different shuttles. The Mason to Metro is a shuttle that takes students directly to and from the Metro every half hour. The Mason to Metro picks students up from five different on-campus locations and drops them right at the Vienna Metro stop. Another popular new option for freshmen and other students without cars is Gunston's Go-Bus, which leaves from campus every hour and shuttles students for free to the mall, Old Town Fairfax, and a few other shopping destinations.
With all the free transportation options, students don't need to pay for cabs. There is also a shuttle that takes students anywhere they need to go on campus, and the Fairfax CUE Bus, which also has a stop on campus, can also take students to the Metro and several stops throughout the City of Fairfax.

BMI view: Zambeef 's 2012 FY results confirm our strong outlook for food consumption growth in Zambia, especially for value-added goods such as meat and dairy products. The company's margins have improved in 2012 thanks to increasing investment in feed production and storage capacity. However, the sudden growth in capital expenditure in 2012 boosted working capital needs, taking operating cash flows into negative territory and debt higher. This will put short-term downside risks to the company's share price.
Zambeef's 2012 FY results confirm our outlook for strong food consumption growth in Zambia, especially for value-added goods such as meat and dairy. For all the company's meat and dairy products, demand outpaced supply, pushing sales higher mainly because of higher volumes and prices. Revenue growth was strongest in the pork and beef segments, mainly because the company's procurement capacity was the strongest in these segments while Zambeef had more difficulty meeting the booming demand for chicken and dairy products, resulting in slower sales growth. We expect demand for these food products to continue growing at a strong pace in the coming years and our Africa team is forecasting real GDP growth of 7.1 % in 2013: among the highest growth rates in the world.
|Staying Subdued
|Zambia - White Maize Retail Prices (ZMK/17kg)
The company's margins improved again in 2012, especially in the meat divisions, thanks to the increasing vertical integration. The company plans to expand its feed division's capacity and has already invested in Mpongwe farm in order to increase soy production in sufficient amounts to meet feed demand from livestock divisions. The company's farm currently produces about 31,000 tonnes of soybean per year, while demand from Zamanita, Zambeef's soymeal and oil production facility, could reach about 100,000 tonnes annually. For 2012, the company's increasing internal soybean production as well as strong stocks helped take gross margins higher, especially in a context of high meat prices. Over the medium term, we expect higher investment in feed production and storage capacity to continue pushing down the cost of goods.
|Improving Margins
|Zambeef - Gross Margins By Division (%)
The significant increase in capex in 2012 linked to investment in feed production and capacity, as well as in more efficient dairy operations, could nevertheless result in a reduced liquidity or increase indebtedness in the short-term. This could delay improvements to profit margins, which only increased from 4.5% in 2011 to 4.8% overall in 2012 (excluding US$9.7mn potential tax payment on which the company has challenged Zambian authorities). In fact, the company's cash flow from operations was taken into negative territory because of a significant increase in working capital requirements. Similarly, the company increased both short-term and long-term debt in order to finance its acquisition, doubling the company's net debt/EBITDA ratio to 6.3x and taking the interest coverage ratio down to 2.3x (from 3.8x in 2011).
|Correction In Sight?
|Zambeef - Share Price (GBp) & RSI (Below)
In line with these trends, even if we see long-term upside potential for the company's share price on the back of revenues and margin expansion, we see little short-term upside potential on the basis of technical indicators in overbought territory and overvalued multiples. In fact, the company traded at 51.0x earnings (compared to 13.4x for Astral Foods and 14.9x for Rainbow Chicken, two South African competitors) and has an Enterprise Value at 22.8x current EBITDA (compared to 9.6x for Astral Foods and 10.8x for Rainbow chicken). Thus, we do not exclude a short-term correction in the share prices in the coming months.

Nicely done, i like the concept. But i think the skulls in the black are a little exagerrated, they look a little like plastic, which lowers the effect of the splatter.
But the placement is really cool!

Date with Rahul Pleases and Perplexes Young Bangaloreans
By Express News Service - BANGALORE
Published: 12th January 2014 09:27 AM
Last Updated: 12th January 2014 09:27 AM
More than 200 students and young achievers from across 29 states participated in an idea-brainstorming session with the AICC vice president Rahul Gandhi in Bangalore on Saturday.
The event was called 'Your Voice, Our Pledge', and took place on Palace Grounds.
Rahul Gandhi, who was accompanied by a convoy of 29 vehicles, spent more than two hours with young people from Karnataka, Sikkim, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, UP, Rajashthan, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Chandigarh, Arunachal Pradesh, Kerala and Delhi. The participants spoke on various issues, from education reforms to women's empowerment.
Aamer Javeed, national secretary, National Students Union of India (NSUI), told Express his organisation had handpicked 225 young people for the interaction. About 30 were from Karnataka.
"We made sure they were non-political. We wanted their views and opinions to prepare a manifesto for the Lok Sabha elections," he said. Arvind Jain, a Bangalore-based techie, was excited to see national leaders. "It is good that they chose us for our opinion. But some of us felt it was more of a grievance meet than an interactive session," he told Express.
Basanti, a soft-skill trainer from Bangalore, was glad the meeting had not acquired any overt political colour. "When they invited us, I thought they would use us for their agenda. Instead, they wanted us to speak," she said.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. - In a grotto on the east side of Beaver Stadium, trucker Gil Coleman, with his rig parked illegally just yards away, posed alongside the 900-pound bronze likeness of Joe Paterno.
"I'm hearing they might tear Ol' Joe down," said the Indianapolis native who took a detour off nearby I-80 to get the photograph. "If that's the case, I wanted to make sure I got to see it."
Penn State officials haven't yet commented on the fate of the 7-foot-tall Paterno sculpture, but the decision epitomizes the difficulties that lie ahead for the beleaguered university.
While attention in the aftermath of the child abuse case that has rocked Penn State to its blue-and-white core has focused on the firing of Penn State's legendary football coach and president, administrators face countless less-newsworthy but equally delicate judgments.

We are Moms and We Understand
We are parents – we understand what you're going through, we empathize with your challenges, and we are supportive of your parenting journey. We care deeply about children and we care about our customers.
The Healthy Child Story
Our founder, Jane Sheppard, started Healthy Child in 1997, shortly after becoming a mother. She learned about the toxic threats to her own child and how to reduce exposures. Jane became passionate about examining the research and sharing with other parents. She formed an advisory board of doctors and scientists, and the Healthy Child Newsletter was born.

So we made it our mission to find healthy alternatives and make them available at Healthy Child. It's our passion to provide you with reliable, truthful and substantial information about each product so you can make a truly informed decision.
Our Guiding Principle
Our founder's mission of safeguarding babies and children so they will thrive is the Guiding Principle that drives everything we do at Healthy Child. If you're in search of safe products, peace of mind, and the truth – you've come to the right place.

We know and understand toxins – specifically how chemical exposures affect babies and children. We've been in business for nearly two decades, and we continue to research all our products extensively.
Here is what we guarantee:
- Safe Materials-We know which materials to avoid and which ones are harmless.
- Transparency– We carefully select manufacturers that are open and transparent and only when we get confirmation that products are up to our strict safety standards do we offer them on our site.
- Reliable Information-We provide you with all the information you need to make a clear choice. No green-washing, no worries.

Is your skirt knee length? I was wondering how it would sit being shorter as I am just 5ft tall and would not be able to wear a longer style. You have done an excellent job, so professional and the material is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing.
This sits just below the knee, but it's easy to adjust the length to whatever fits you best!

SALT LAKE CITY — Legislation that would have allowed school boards to sell advertising space on the exterior of school buses has stalled in the Utah State Legislature.
A House committee rejected the bill last Friday.
The bill would have required school boards to adopt guidelines for the type of advertising permitted on buses. Ads that promoted illegal substances for minors, such as alcohol and tobacco, and that promoted gambling or sexual material would have been prohibited.
Placement of advertisements on the back of a school bus would have also been prohibited.
ABC 4 News reports that state Rep. Jim Bird, who sponsored the bill, hoped that bus advertising would have generated additional revenue for school districts.
However, members of the House Education Committee were concerned that people would assume that the ads were endorsed by schools. Others thought that students might be exposed to inappropriate ads.

Xbox 360 Compatible USB Flash Drives
My Xbox 360 profile was on a 512MB memory unit and with the USB flash drive update to the system, I figured it was time to move on up.
Xbox 360 has some sort of "test" it runs USB drives through to determine if the drive "meets recommendations" or is "below recommended performance." If it's below the recommended performance, you'll supposedly get degraded experiences in loading/saving games, reading your profile information from the drive, etc. Unfortunately, the Xbox 360 storage page really doesn't tell you which drives work other than their Xbox 360 branded drives.
To that end, I tried a couple of drives and found one that worked (the Lexar JumpDrive Firefly) and one that didn't (SanDisk Cruzer). I figure I'll put that info here, and if there are people who have experiences they want to contribute, I'll add it. Send me a link to the drive on Amazon or whatever and whether or not it "met the recommendations."
Prices listed are current as of the day I added the drive to the list.

Brunfelsia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Solanaceae, the nightshades. There are about 50 species described.[1] Linnaeus named the genus for the early German herbalist Otto Brunfels (1488–1534). Common names for the genus include raintree.[2]
These are neotropical shrubs and small trees. The leaves are alternately arranged, simple, and usually oval in shape. The large, tubular flowers have five broad petals.
Typical habitat for wild species is light woodland and thickets.
Species in cultivation include Brunfelsia americana and Brunfelsia pauciflora. Brunfelsia australis is actively promoted by growers for its tricolored blooms and drought resistance.
Like many nightshades, some members of this genus contain toxic and medicinal alkaloids. The plants are known to be poisonous to domestic animals such as cats, dogs, and horses due to their brunfelsamidine content.[3] Toxicity in dogs manifests with strychnine-like gastrointestinal, neurological and cardiac symptoms.[4]
Brunfelsia is a genus of the tribe Petunieae, which also includes Petunia. This placement is supported by molecular data.[1]

Bowa's Spring Years as a player for the Phillies were filled with seemingly endless hopes of success, both individually and team wise. Performance wise, his years with the Phils were the heyday of his career, as he stamped himself as the greatest shortstop in Phillie history.
wise, the Bowa era coincided with the greatest Phillie teams in history,
culminating in the teams only World Championship in 1980. Yet, he left his Spring Years behind
when he was traded to the Chicago Cubs after the 1981 season.
His Summer Years were varied and contrasting. His individual skills as a player diminished with the Cubs, but he performed well enough to help transform a formerly dismal franchise into a team that came within one win of the 1984 World Series.
After concluding his career with the New York Mets in 1985, he went on to a coaching career that included a poor year and a half as manager of the Padres, a solid coaching job with the Phils, and a decent job as coach with the California Angels.
Yet when
he was fired as coach of the Angels after the 1999 season, Bowa saw the Summer
Years of his life end. Clearly, he
was at a crossroads, and though he wanted to manage again, he was not sure if
and when that opportunity might arise.
What Bowa
could not have imagined was that the Autumn Years would take him back to the
site of his greatest professional successes, as manager of the Philadelphia Phillies. Make no mistake
about it, the hiring of Bowa was not met with universal approval, either at the
organization level or with the Phillie fans.
Certainly, Bill Giles would have to make peace with Bowa, as it was Giles who first incurred Bowa's wrath by going back on a supposed contract extension promise. When Bowa apologized to Giles this made the path to managerial helm much easier for the team. Still, whispers abound everywhere that it was long time Phil, Darren Daulton, who was GM Ed Wade's first choice, but he was convinced by Phillie advisor Dallas Green that Bowa was a better choice.
Most Phillie watchers believe that ultimately it was owner Dave Montgomery who cast the final vote, and the vote was for Bowa. The die was now cast; it would be the irascible, temperamental, tightly wound Bowa who would lead the Phils in 2001.
Make no
mistake; the Phils were definitely looking for someone of Bowa's temperament to
lead them after the player friendly Francona had allowed the ship to steer to
far off course. And certainly Bowa
had the Philadelphia credentials for instant credibility with the fans, who
remembered him for his enthusiasm and take no prisoners attitude as shortstop
with the Phils.
retrospect, perhaps this initial decision by Bowa to be such a tough taskmaster
proved to be his ultimate undoing.
Certainly, his sharp tongue and tell it like it is attitude was a radical
departure for such easy going players as Scott Rolen, Mike Lieberthal and Bobby Abreu and to be honest, the team responded in the early going.
In fact, the 2001 Phils reacted quickly to Bowa's needles and stood at 35-18 and in first place by 8 games in late May of 2001. Still, Bowa was slowly alienating the very players he needed the most. He made an ill-advised comment one day to the press about how the "middle of the order is killing is."
comment seemed unnecessary for two reasons. Number one was that at the time of
the comment, the Phils were playing well and leading the division comfortably.
It seemed an ill-timed statement.
Worse yet was how it affected Rolen. Batting in the middle of the order at
the time was Abreu, Rolen and Pat Burrell.
Abreu and Burrell laughed it off and basically ignored it, the sensitive and
introspective Rolen took it very personally. Many people still believe that Bowa lost
Rolen forever with that statement, and history would seem to lend credence to
this. Although Rolen continued to
play well, and was even voted to the All-Star team in 2002, he never again spoke
of the Phils as his team.
Clearly, Bowa had created a gap between his star player and himself that would never be fixed. As the Phillie lead dwindled, Bowa became more animated and the news media loved to forever show Bowa's facial expressions on the television for the entire world to see. It made for great theater, but bad public relations with the very players he was managing.
As the
Phils lead slipped and they eventually fell behind the Atlanta Braves in the
standings, Bowa's moves came under closer scrutiny, especially his use of the
bullpen. It could not have helped
that the pitcher's perception of him was clouded by some ill-advised statements
in Spring Training that were caught on tape. Needless to say, they were not
complimentary to pitchers in general, nor their manhood.
though Bowa eventually won the Manager of the Year honors in 2001 with a second
place finish and an 86-76 record, many pundits were unimpressed, and remembered
that after the 35-18 start, the Phils were a very pedestrian 51-57 to finish the
year. Further clouding the issue was Rolen's refusal to play in the final
weekend series in Cincinnati.
Bowa tried to sugar coat this event, he could not avoid the fact that Rolen
stated immediately after the season that he had no intention of signing a
contract extension with the Phils, and instead would play out his option. Most baseball insiders were convinced
that Bowa was the reason that Rolen wanted to leave.
And leave he did, via a disastrous trade with the St. Louis Cardinals in July of 2002. The Phils of 2002 were playing poorly, Rolen was unhappy, and it was a move that had to be made. Traded for Placido Polonco, lefty Bud Smith and reliever Mike Timlin, the Phils clearly did not get equal value.
Ironically, the Phils post-Rolen 2002 played solid baseball, and it is this writer's opinion that the best managing job Bowa did was during this stretch. He allowed young Pat Burrell to blossom as the star of the team, coaxed solid years from Mike Lieberthal and Randy Wolf, and brought the Phils home at 80-81. In fact, only a last inning loss to the Florida Marlins kept the '02 Phils from finishing above .500.
If Bowa
seemed to be improving as manager during his Autumn Years, 2003 would be the
ideal test. Buoyed by the free
agent acquisitions of such standouts as slugger Jim Thome and third baseman
David Bell as well as the trade for top starter, Kevin Millwood, the Phils
appeared ready for prime time.
In truth,
the 2003 team should have been in the playoffs. They were talented enough. They had an enviable closing
schedule. They lead the wild card
chase with but 8 games to play and seemed to have the momentum. Yet, during those final 8 games, with
everything on the line, the Phils lost 7 of these games, and most fans blamed
Once again, the criticism of his use of his pitching staff, his misuse of the bullpen, his constant rearranging of the batting order, and his knack for constantly criticizing the team publicly were but a few of the critiques. By the end of the season, this was a team in seeming disarray, and when Kevin Millwood tossed his glove into the stands angrily after a last game disaster, Bowa's fate seemed sealed.
It did not help matters that his former ally, Jack McKeon, had not only taken his Florida Marlins past the Phils and into the playoffs, but he was publicly chiding Bowa as he was doing it. He constantly reminded anyone who would listen that not only did he expect to overtake the Phils, but that it was Bowa's style that would ultimately cost the Phils dearly. He was correct.
To his credit, GM. Ed Wade quickly announced that not only would Bowa be back in 2004, but was given a contract extension. Then Wade went into action to insure that Bowa would have every opportunity to make 2004 a winning one.
brought in ace reliever Billy Wagner, traded for starter Eric Milton, resigned
free agent Kevin Millwood and signed relievers Tim Worrell and Roberto Hernandez
as free agents. Added to these
additions was the talents of holder players like Thome, Burrell, Lieberthal,
Polonco, Abreu, Wolf, Padilla, Brett Myers and Jimmy Rollins, and the Phils were
picked by many to win the entire National League in '04.
at worst, they were heavily favored to represent the NL East in the playoffs,
and for a while it appeared as if they might. At the All-Star break they led the
league by a game, but were sputtering badly. Injuries to such key performers as
Wagner, Padilla and Millwood did not help matters, but in truth, Bowa seemed
unable to learn from past mistakes.
His penchant for excuse making continued and although his personality mellowed somewhat, his managerial style was still uneven and inconsistent. Young players like Myers and Marlon Byrd have regressed under Bowa, and with but a few weeks to go in the season, most experts think Bowa will be removed once the season ends.
In truth,
Bowa seems resigned to his fate, and has shown almost no emotion lately, in
direct contrast to his earlier public appearances. He still professes a belief that he will
be back in 2005, yet rumors of him reappearing as a coach with the New York Mets
just won't go away.
In the final irony of this story, the Phils are currently playing their best ball of the season as they attempt an unlikely run at a wild card birth. Even more ironic, the team has finally seemed to take on an identity of its own, after years of being lost in the shadows of Bowa's personality.
perhaps it will never be known for sure, a prevailing theory is that now that
the long shadow of Larry Bowa is no longer blocking the sunlight of the Phillie
players, they have become freer to express their individual talents, and in this
freedom have bonded together as a team.
The signs are everywhere, from Pat Burrell delaying surgery to come back for a playoff push, to players like Billy Wagner, Randy Wolf, Kevin Millwood and Vicente Padilla working hard to return to action.
It can be seen in the actions of an angry Bobby Abreu screaming about a third strike in a seemingly meaningless "who cares, we will probably lose two anyhow" doubleheader in Atlanta.
actions spoke volumes about his determination to the cause and though he may
have lost the battle by being thrown out of the game, he may have won the war as
the Phils rebounded to sweep the twin bill. The same with Wagner displaying his
anger and risking suspension to argue a call in a "seemingly meaningless late
game with the Mets."
Make no mistake about the late season version of the 2004 Phillies. This team is slowly and oh so painfully developing an identity, and not since 1993 has the team had one. In fact, almost every great Phillie team of the past 40 years, from the '64 overachievers to the '77 maulers, from the 1980 World Champs to the Wild Bunch of '93, had an identity.
This identity may not get them to the playoffs in '04 but it may well serve them well in the future, a future that is unlikely to include Manager Larry Bowa. Only a playoff birth can save him, and the Phils are starting the race to late in the game, the distance is probably too far.
Yet, in the Autumn Years, Bowa may well look back on his final days as manager of the Phils with satisfaction. In letting up, he may finally have let go. In letting go, he may finally have allowed his team to hold on. It is a lesson he may well take with him wherever he goes next.
The story of Larry Bowa began with a recap of a song written and sung long ago by Bobby Goldsboro called "Autumn of My Life." It is the story of a man who lives though an exciting and storied spring and summer years only to suffer pain and loss in autumn.
Though the losses were real, and very permanent, Goldsboro speaks of a contentment born of the realization that he has lived life full and learned much in these seasons. This has allowed him to make peace with his past, and enjoy his present and the future.
This seems a story written for Larry Bowa. Though his wondrous spring and summer years could never last forever, and the autumn years were filled with pain and disappointment, he has learned much and in his knowledge, is content and prepared… for the winter of his life.

Coinciding with the 20th anniversary of its factory opening, German boutique automaker Wiesmann will offer a special edition of its MF4. The MF4-S, as it's called, utilizes the same M3-sourced V-8, but now with 420 hp — some 53 hp over the base model.
Wait, what's a Wiesmann anyways? The automaker was founded in 1985 by brothers Martin and Friedhelm Wiesmann. Their factory resides in Dülmen, Germany, and produces a smattering of specialty, handmade rear-wheel-drive vehicles every year. Each car receives power from BMW drivetrains; the MF4 with the aforementioned M3 engine (available with either manual or DCT transmissions), and the MF5 with the 5.0L V-10 from the M5.
Wiesmann outfits the special edition MF4-S with a center console engraved with the owner's name and production number, exclusive embroidery and unique instrumentation. Wiesmann will produce only 30 examples of the MF4-S. We'll see it live at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show in March.

With the draft coming up, I've heard some comments about lower round QBs. So I comprised a slide show of these lower tiered QBs just so we could all get familiar with them.
I've heard a lot of fellow Seahawk fans disagree with a QB at six or even #14.
In my opinion I really don't see Jimmy Clausen being the right guy for us. He's listed at 6'3" but many sources say his actual height is around 6'1". Also he throws side-armed.
How is highly drafted, side-armed throwing David Carr's career going?
As for Sam Bradford, we know the guy can throw, and throw accurately. But last year he showed us how brittle his body is.
I really don't think either of these guys are the answer in Seattle.
So here's a list of QBs that put up great numbers in their college career. I know most of these guys didn't play for big college's. But neither did Kurt Warner,Joe Flacco, Tony Romo and Jake Delhomme.
So here we go:

Franchitti Dominates the Streets of Long Beach
After recovering from a poor race start, when he dropped from second on the starting grid to fourth on the opening lap, Dario Franchitti went on to dominate Sunday's Grand Prix of Long Beach, leading 51 of the 85 laps and moving to the top of the early-season points standings with his first win of the season. The victory also made a pleasant present for Franchitti's wife, actress Ashley Judd, who was celebrating her birthday Sunday at the circuit.
A slightly tardy get-away at the green flag saw Franchitti lose positions to both impressive rookie Rafael Matos and Justin Wilson in the run to the first turn, but he regained third place over Wilson on Lap 3, and 10 laps later got around Matos for second. A quick pit stop on Lap 16 for fuel and to trade his softer alternate tires for a set of standard replacements, put Franchitti in position to assume the lead as the rest of the field made their first pit stops. He was at the front for the rest of the day, leading the final 30 laps for a comfortable 3.3-second victory over pole-qualifier Will Power.
The Honda HI9R Indy V-8 engine, featuring a revised and quieter exhaust system among its list of improvements for the new season, again ran with perfect reliability, as 23 drivers logged a total of 7,631 miles in practice, qualifying and racing around the demanding 1.9-mile street circuit, without a single engine-related failure. Power was hampered by sporadic radio communication with his pits. After leading the first 16 laps, a communication problem led him to believe a full-course caution had been called and he slowed, initiating a multi-car pileup in his wake. Ironically, that event did lead to a yellow flag, but with Matos now in the lead. Power was able to regain third place with a mid-race pass on Danica Patrick, then moved up to second -- ahead of both Tony Kanaan and Patrick -- in the final round of pit stops.
After a troubled practice and qualifying, Andretti Green Racing teammates Kanaan, Patrick and Marco Andretti all had strong races, with Kanaan just edging Patrick at the blend line following the last round of pit stops to take third. Patrick would finish fourth, while Marco would battle Dan Wheldon as the pair bumped each other in the famed Long Beach hairpin corner before Wheldon prevailed for fifth, with Andretti rounding out the top six finishers.
Today's victory extends Franchitti's record as Honda's winningest open-wheel racer, with 10 CART victories to go with his nine IndyCar wins for a total of 19 career triumphs. Alex Zanardi is next on the Honda all-time list with 15 victories.
The 2009 IndyCar Series resumes with the first high-speed oval race of the year, on the high banks of Kansas Speedway on April 26.
Dario Franchitti (#10 Target Chip Ganassi Racing Honda) Started 2nd, finished 1st, 9th career IndyCar win, has twice previously finished second at Long Beach behind a Ganassi entry in CART events: "Well, if you can't beat them, join them! It was an awesome day for the entire Target Chip Ganassi Racing team. Just a lot of fun. The timing of our first pit stop was critical. I was able to make up for my bad start and pass both Justin [Wilson] and later 'Rafa' [Matos], then the team called me in at the perfect time. My 'reds' [softer, alternate tires] were just starting to go off, and the guys got me out so fast we were able to pick up the lead as the others made their stops. Our car ran flawlessly all day. It's great to be back with a unified [open wheel] series at Long Beach."
Will Power (#12 Team Penske Honda) Started 1st, finished 2nd, moved to the #12 car on Saturday after Helio Castroneves returned to drive the #3 Team Penske Honda: "It was tough today. We had radio problems from the start of the race and that probably cost us a couple of positions. But it's a great finish considering all that's gone on this weekend, switching cars and crews after Helio [Castroneves] was able to run. I've been so fortunate to be able to run with Team Penske so far this season, and I'm looking forward to racing for this team at Indianapolis."
Jack Spurney (General Manager, Honda Performance Development) on today's race: "It's great to be back at Long Beach, and racing IndyCars in front of our many 'hometown' associates for the first time since 2002. In a lot of ways it was a typical Long Beach event: beautiful weather, a big crowd, and an exciting race with six different leaders, several incidents and a good mix of different drivers and teams at the top. Congratulations to Dario Franchitti and his entire Target Chip Ganassi Racing team on a well-earned victory, and we're looking forward to next week's first oval race of the season."

Area hockey players, coaches land PIHL all-star selections
Erie's three PIHL teams have had a strong first half to the season, and the teams have been rewarded with all-star honors.
Cathedral Prep, Harbor Creek and McDowell combined for 11 PIHL all-star selections, three coaches and two alternates.
In Class AA, Prep (9-3-2) had Northeast Conference honorees in junior forward Trevor Faulkner, senior forward John Colvin, junior defenseman Jack Kelly and senior goalie Grant Kennedy. First-year head coach Craig Barnett was selected as an assistant for the Northeast team. Junior forward Ben Eliason is an alternate.
In the Open Class, Harbor Creek had five all-stars on the Southwest Conference team and McDowell had two.
A pair of high-scoring underclassmen, junior forward Logan Conboy and sophomore forward Nick Rocco, landed all-star spots for the Huskies, who are 13-1-0 in the PIHL. Conboy leads the Open class with 47 points (28 goals, 19 assists), and Rocco is tied for second with 42 (18 goals, 24 assists). Two Harbor Creek defensemen, senior Ryan Markiewicz and junior Justin Dedionisio, also were selected, along with senior goalie Tyler Manna. Paul Markiewicz will serve as the Southwest head coach.
Senior forward Aaron Parry and senior defenseman Danny Alexviczh made the team for McDowell, which was 8-2-0 going into Thursday. Senior forward Matthew Lorei is alternate, and Bill Wager will be an assistant coach.
The all-stars and coaches will participate in the Class AA and Open Class all-star games Feb. 9 at the RMU Island Sports Center.

TT Brown Electrokinetic Apparatus (US Patent # 2,949,550, issued Aug.16,1960), I built and first operated this TT Brown-rig in 1999, and here it is flying with and without being sealed in plastic bags. Power dispersal from saucers plays havoc with the video, computers, and ionises EVERYTHING, even human-bodies, in a 60-foot radius from Electrokinetic Apparatus. When power supply is activated without being attacthed to the saucers (design by professor John RR Searl of Great Britain) the ionising field does not propagate more than a meter, in all directions. In vacuum tests in 1955 with this apparatus, demonstrated in Hawaii by TT Brown, the saucers developed so much speed, the apparatus threatened to fly apart. Several hundred KPH, with only 50-100 Watts input electrical energy. The Beifeld-Brown effect violates the First Law of Thermodynamics, because far more kinetic energy is created by the saucers than input electrical energy. As Dr. La Violette says:"Such iconoclastic results become the norm, once you step over in to the area of Field-Effect Propulsion"-SECRETS OF ANTIGRAVITY PROPULSION(LaViolette,2008). The Stars are now within the reach of Earth humans;the whole Universe! "Keep Watching the Skies". This is not rocket-science. This is warp Drive, and silent inertialess propulsion that puts the stars and galaxies within the reach of us Earth-humans. For those who want off the planet!

U.S. Transportation
Secretary Ray LaHood today announced the Federal Railroad Administration is
soliciting research proposals to foster rapid development of high-speed and
intercity passenger rail service technologies in the United States.
A pool of
$25 million is available for basic and applied technology research, development
and demonstration projects to advance the state of the art in track and
structures, train control systems, operating practices and rolling stock. FRA
is seeking projects focused on accelerating development of technologies that
ensure safe, efficient and strategic deployment of integrated passenger rail
systems. The solicitation is open to all sources.
Governor Charlie Crist is
applauding Florida's application to the Federal Railroad Administration seeking
$1.1 billion in funding that will allow Florida to deliver high-speed rail
express service in the Tampa-Orlando corridor with operating speeds of 168 mph
by 2015, local media report.
Colorado has received
$400,000 and Vermont $500,000 under the Federal Railroad Administration's High-Speed
Intercity Passenger Rail (HSIPR) Program grant program funded from fiscal year
2009 appropriations. Colorado will use its funds to develop a state rail plan,
a prerequisite for receiving additional HSIPR intercity passenger rail funding.
Sound Transit released
updated long-term revenue forecasts to the agency's Executive Committee that
show ST2 funding levels down by about 25 percent, or $3.9 billion. Last fall
Sound Transit estimated long-term revenue levels to be down by about 20
percent, or $3.1 billion through 2023. The latest estimates come from updated
forecasts the agency received showing an additional $767 million shortfall.
Federal and state
officials joined representatives of the Town of Normal and Amtrak to
ceremonially break ground for a Multimodal Transportation Center that will
serve as a station for Amtrak rail and motor coach passengers, local transit
buses and will include a multi-level parking structure.
A routine federal
requirement that's intended to preserve historic sites threatens to delay some
economic stimulus projects around the country, McClatchy Newspapers report. Federally-funded
projects that could affect sites with historic value are required to undergo
reviews that consider ways to minimize disturbance of the sites. Projects
funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act are no different. In some
cases, that's meant delays in getting crucial stimulus projects out the door,
and therefore in pumping stimulus dollars into the economy.
Pacific is joining the procession of railroad facility developments to handle
freight shipments for the area's emerging natural-gas drilling industry, the
Times-Tribune reports. Canadian Pacific, based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, is
developing a transload facility at its Taylor yard to process sand for
Marcellus Shale natural gas development, CP spokesman Mike LoVecchio said.
Construction on a
multimodal transportation center for the City of Trinidad, Colo., is currently
expected to begin in summer or fall next year, the Trinidad Times independent
reports. The planned center, to be owned by the city but operated by the South
Central Council of Governments (COG), will allow ingress and egress from the
city by train and bus and to COG's local transportation system.
