Pepto Bismuth
Bismuth subsalicylate: for those hot summer days
"Years ago, when I worked for outlandishly hirsute rockers The Cure, the band wouldn't tour without stocking up first. I'd be at my desk, and the call would come in. 'Fraser? We're in Rio, and we've run out of Pepto. Can you Fedex us a crate?' And so I would." How to make Pepto-Bismol ice cream.
Yahoo now has co-branding
Yahoo now has co-branding arrangements going on. I hate to see this trend continue, as I see it diluting the reputation of both companies. What's Pepto-Bismol got to do with teens having a fun summer? Anyone care to make the connection for me? What's next, Geritol sponsoring a site aimed at toddlers?

Covering Your Tracks
If you or someone you love is in an abusive relationship, there's a variety of web sites to help in addition to ours. As a precaution, you should hide your internet activity from an abuser, because this person may have access to your computer.
The directions to Delete Your Browser History can help you cover your tracks. But there's the possibility that an abuser can still see the websites you've gone to and e-mails you've sent. The best safety measure is to use a computer that your abuser doesn't have access to, such as a computer at a friend's home, at a library or at work.

Many people, whether they are diabetic or just looking to reduce calories, want to eliminate refined, white sugar from their diets. However, it can be confusing and controversial to tell what to use instead. In this ongoing series, we'll examine some of the more common substitutes, both natural and artificial, to give you the information to decide what's best for you.
WHAT IS IT: Condensed fruit juice is a syrup made by heating the juices of fruit — most often grapes or pears — to remove the water.
SOLD AS: There are several brands of condensed fruit juice sweeteners on the market made from various fruits. If you don't want to buy a concentrate, you can make your own by boiling 100 percent fruit juice until it becomes a syrup.
NUTRITION: Nutritional values vary by the type of fruit used, brand and concentrate.
TAKE NOTE: You won't save calories by using juice concentrate rather than refined sugar, and the amount of nutrients you add from the fruit is minimal.
HOW TO USE: You can use juice concentrates in baked goods and jellies or jams. In baked goods, use two-thirds to three-fourths cup of juice concentrate for each cup of sugar; also reduce other liquid ingredients by up to one-third cup. You might also need to add additional baking soda, lower the oven temperature and increase baking time to get the proper rise in baked goods.

The column that says Bridgeton walks the walk.
Good morning!
AccuWeather.com is currently monitoring the movement of three tropical waves.
A new tropical wave is emerging off the coast of Africa.
This is the 13th tropical wave to move into the Atlantic Basin.
The tropical wave has a growing deep moisture area but is flanked by dry, dusty air to the north and west similar to the past several tropical waves.
Tropical wave No. 12 has been moving erratically, but a general 5 degrees per day is its current pace. This tropical wave will move into the Lesser Antilles Friday night and Saturday and then affect the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico Saturday night and Sunday.
Finally, tropical wave No. 11 is bringing increased deep moisture over Cuba and the Bahamas.
This deep moisture will help bring more numerous showers and thunderstorms to South and central Florida mostly Friday and Saturday.
Ice cream in Rosenhayn.
Sign on a town of Deerfield church:
"God never loses power.''
We hope Bud Maxwell has a wood stove.
And we hope that tree he was cutting up at Laurel Lawn Cemetery didn't provide shade for his annual Memorial Day services.
It was huge.
Another victim of the storm.
A little Bud Maxwell history:
Bud Maxwell is a poor
"I've walked out on doctors.
"I've walked out on lawyers.
"I've walked out on dentists.
"It's a good thing I've known you for a long time or I wouldn't still be here."
After a half-dozen heart attacks, almost as many stents, open heart surgery and, finally, a stroke, E. Margan Maxwell Jr. has a million stories to tell.
He's never gone willingly in hospitals..
"'We're going to have to cut you.'
"'I don't want to be cut.'
"'We're going to have to open you up.'
"'I don't want to be opened up.'"
You think with a medical history like his, he's lived on the disabled list.
"Never been out of work more than a month," he bragged.
He's been mayor twice.
He once told Mayor John Spoltore, if you don't let me run for city council this time, I'll be running against you.
He ran and won.
He was on the board of education at 29.
Born in 1928, he still remembers The Great Depression.
Putting cardboard in your shoes every day to preserve your socks before going to school tends to stick with you.
"Every morning, sitting on the kitchen floor putting in a new piece of cardboard," he said. "The cardboard came from box tops."
When he had money, he glued on half-soles.
"We'd cut up old inner tubes to make rubber bands to put around the shoes."
Going to the movies depended on the dump.
"If we could find five empty Coke bottles in the dump, we could get 2 cents apiece forthem and go to the movies. If we found a Hires root beer bottle, it was worth a nickel."
Bud Maxwell didn't feel poor.
"Everybody did the same thing."
Everybody worked for Seabrook Farms.
"Whole families. Mom and dad and the kids. I started at age 9. Picked string beans every summer.
"To tell to the truth, I'd starve to death before ever picking a (bleeping) bean again.
"I couldn't even hardly carry a basket."
Not welfare.
Not unemployment insurance.
Oh, the Work Progress Administration (WPA) did build the Bridgeton High stadium.
It did provide for soil conservation camps.
"That's how Parvin State Park came about. My uncles worked at one just past Tuckahoe. The men working there lived there.
"That's what I have a problem with today. People talk about jobs, but they're not talking about jobs for the lower one-third. They're talking about jobs for people up here," he said, holding his hand above eye level.
"We've got to get rid of the ditch-digging machines and put shovels back in the hands."
The year Bud was born, his dad started Laurel Lawn Cemetery.
When he was 15, he started working there for a quarter an hour.
In the morning.
One dollar for four hours.
"We once tried putting gasoline around the tombstones so the grass wouldn't grow.
"Turned out, the flowers wouldn't grow, either."
In the afternoon, he carried 100 newspapers.
Another dollar.
"In the evening, I set pins in the bowling alley for another dollar.
"Three dollars a day."
Every Friday night, the sidewalks downtown were loaded.
"There were a dozen men's stores downtown. Ladies stores all over the place. Three shoe stores."
All the kids went to the movies. Bud went when he found five Coke bottles.
"Fanny Cowell played the piano at the Bijou Theater."
She was Bridgeton's first woman city council person.
He remembers wrestling matches at Tumbling Dam Park.
"Sailor Franzen against Iron Man Wood."
You didn't borrow money in those days.
He got married and they had a baby and he entered law school at the University of Virginia.
"I was working full time in a gas station and going to school and supporting a family. I barely made it through the first year.
They told him he could start the second year if he cut back on his workload.
"I dropped out. The thought of borrowing money never entered my mind."
He never asked his Realtor dad.
"I had to pay him back for buying my newspaper route and my bicycle I used on my paper route — at 6 percent interest."
His dad was also angry when he didn't come home to the real estate business.
But he did come to real estate.
On the board of education, he saw the present Bridgeton High School built.
"We watched our money so closely, it came down to what kind of seats to put in the new auditorium. A difference of $10 a seat meant a difference of $10,000."
There was something even better.
"Whether to buy one or two safety pins to attach the numbers on the backs of participants in the Bridgeton Relays.
They finally agreed on two.
"There was no concept of borrowing money back then.
"Not like today where they advertise no money down for buying a car. And credit cards everywhere. People buying homes who shouldn't be buying big homes."
Maxwell Construction Company built the homes on the other side of Mary Elmer Lake.
"But they weren't big homes. They were ranchers, 24 by 40 feet.
"They don't even think of building houses that small now. They're at least 3,000 square feet and they can't afford them.''
He tossed up the basketball for the first game played in the new high school gym.
He followed John Spoltore into politics.
Spoltore was such a good leader, he stood in the way of Bob Weber advancing in the
Republican Party, where his mother had a lot of influence.
So Weber became a Democrat.
"There's one thing that makes a good leader.
"If you don't have followers, you can't be a good leader.
"John Spoltore was a good leader."
Bud Maxwell served three terms on city council.
They bought the Florida Avenue property.
They bought what is now the industrial park.
They bought the city hall annex.
He still has ideas.
"Paint the other wall where the pocket park is.
He once had the idea of closing off the downtown from Washington to Broad and Pearl to the river and making it a walking mall.
"Dredge Sunset Lake and make it nicer for swimming while it's empty and use the dirt to cap the landfill.
"It's never been a good place to swim. We always swam in East Lake."
He'd like to see historic Potter's Tavern with a liquor license and open on weekends.
He gave up on reenacting the Greenwich Tea burning with a horseback ride from Bridgeton to Greenwich when he found out it happened on Dec. 22.
He rides down Coral Avenue and see magnificent houses with nice flowers.
He sees the same thing on Pearl Street.
"More and more Hispancs are buying houses. In my area, most of the houses being sold are to Hispanics. They're taking care of them, too.
"They're good people.
"The problem is the (bleeping) illegals! They're breaking the economy."
He said people didn't steal during the Great Depression.
"If we have another depression, you'd better have a gun today because people will steal."
Every Memorial Day, he has a service at his cemetery because there are veterans buried there.
He has bagpipes because "I like bagpipes."
He has Paul Hunsberger read the National Anthem to music because "some singers screw it up."
He has a speaker from all the faiths buried in the cemetery.
It lasts one hour.
Not a minute longer.
And you'd better get there on time.
Bud Maxwell is not a good waiter.
Where in Greenwich can you eat Shep's crabs besides Shep's house?
"I would like to start by congratulating the West Cumberland/North Cumberland Major Girls (11-12 All Stars) on winning the District 3 Title back on June 28.
"These girls did a wonderful job of working together, during their run and represented their leagues very well.
"They started out very well with an 7-0 record, and ended up 8-2.
"Unfortunately, they ran into a powerhouse of a team in Hammonton and came up a little short of their goal.
"These girls worked really hard to achieve this record!
"They gave it all they had, not to mention that most of this run was during an 11-day heat wave!
"That being said, I think it's a shame that these young ladies were not given the recognition they deserved.
"The News didn't come to any games, especially the game when they won the District 3 Title and proudly ran across their field displaying their banner.
"For some of these players, this was their first time experiencing anything like this, and it sure would have been nice to see it in the local newspaper the next morning.
"Hopefully, the local fans weren't too disappointed that they had to turn to Today's Sunbeam or Daily Journal to find out the results of these games.
"I would also like to thank Manager Joe Cook and his coaches, Gary Woodruff and Clayton Kelly, for the fine job they did with this team.
"They've put a lot of their time into coaching this team, and it sure showed great results.''
— Sal DeFrancisco
In the next letter you write, Sal, give the team even more credit by mentioning the names of all the girls.
You're preaching to the wrong man.
We paid $1,600 for plane fare out of our own pocket to fly to Syracuse to cover West Cumberland in the Eastern Regionals one year.
And another $400 for a car rental.
And other $600 for a hotel room.
Don't ever question our loyalty to youth sports.
U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, who faces re-election in November, has five times as much money in the bank as his opponent, state Sen. Joe Kyrillos.
Menendez, a Democrat, announced Thursday that he's raised $1.7 million over the last three months, while Kyrillos said he's hauled in $1.3 million.

GRAND RAPIDS – 5x5 Night, the event created by Rick DeVos that dangles up to $5,000 to someone with a great idea, returns next week with five new ideas including an indoor dog park and a fresh fish market.
Chris McKellar, a guitar player in the band AG Silver, will present "The Fish Ladder." He described his idea in a tweet last week as "bringing a fresh fish market to Grand Rapids with a social bent."
Steve Frazee, one of the organizers of TEDxGrandRapids that took place earlier this year and a previous 5x5 Night judge, submitted an idea called, "Cleaning with Kindness."
Other presenters are: Taylor Voss, The Community Grocery; Kaitlin Hoines, Indoor Dog Park; and Benjamin Darcie, The Publican House.
The event, put on by Pomegranate Studios, took a hiatus over the summer. It returns at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Grand Rapids Art Museum and will continue to be held on the last Tuesday of each month. Admission is $5.
Presenters will have five minutes to sum up their idea with five slides for five judges. The judges will then award all or part of the $5,000 prize to one or more of the presenters to help get their idea off the ground.
DeVos, who also founded ArtPrize, will announce an experiment with the format at the next 5x5 Night designed to "get a lot more attention around a lot more ideas," according to a press release.
In addition to DeVos, judges for this month's event are:
- George Aquino, general manager of the JW Marriott.
- Linda Chamberlain, senior vice president of global strategy and product development at Global Forex Trading.
- John Hwang, founding partner and CEO of Mutually Human.
- John Malnor, vice president of growth initiatives at Steelcase.
Winners will be announced after the presentations at nearby Reserve Wine Bar where attendees will receive a "complimentary pour."

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- It's official. On Feb. 1, the much talked about frequency-based toll discount at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey's Staten Island crossings will be available to E-ZPass customers.
But since the discounted toll plan needs to be pre-paid, any unused trips will still be charged to the user's E-ZPass account.
"You asked for relief and we delivered," said Gov. Andrew Cuomo in a statement yesterday. "This plan will save thousands of commuters hard-earned cash each time they go over one of these bridges, putting more money in their pockets at the end of each month."
But despite a press release from the governor's office trumpeting the benefits of the plan, and endless accolades from Staten Island elected officials about the latest discount, the discount plan means nothing to the many Staten Island motorists who are only casual visitors to New Jersey.
For example, those who make one to two trips a week, to visit family, shop or head to the shore, still get stuck paying the full toll.
And the new plan in no way resembles the flat-rate discount plan for the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, which provides a big toll break to Islanders no matter how often they travel.
Instead of paying the $13 cash V-N bridge toll, Islanders with E-ZPass pay just $5.76 to cross the bridge, no matter how many times per month they travel.
Yesterday's announcement comes after the governor was roundly blasted last week for proposing a free pass to residents of the Rockaways who pay to cross the Cross Bay Bridge because of the economic challenge it poses.
Still, Island politicians saw yesterday's announcement as a step in the right direction for toll relief for Islanders, and Rep. Michael Grimm vowed to push for even greater discounts.
"Governor Cuomo has taken a great step in the right direction to provide us with long-overdue relief," Grimm said last night. "I will continue to work with the governor and his staff to ensure that this much-needed relief is also brought our local businesses, especially our container port, so that Staten Island's economy can remain competitive and viable."
Staten Island motorists, do you think this is a good deal? Did the governor deliver? Or does this plan fall short of what you think Staten Islanders deserve? Share your thoughts in the comment section below?

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- Metro Birmingham home sales jumped 36 percent in July, reversing the trend of falling numbers that's been seen all year.
Sales totaled 1,001 last month, compared to 735 in July 2010, the Birmingham Association of Realtors said Wednesday.
But while the growth was significant, the celebration was muted.
That's because the year-over-year comparison is skewed by the fact that home sales in the year-ago period were unnaturally low.
Last year, a federal tax credit for homebuyers program expired in June, so there was a dramatic sales drop-off the following month.
Compared to June of this year, when 987 homes in the area were sold, July's home sales saw a more modest increase, at 1.4 percent.
Brian Sparks, president-elect of the Realtors' group, said July's numbers show that houses are still selling in Birmingham.
"The next few months going forward, we'll really get a better comparison," he said.
Until July, sales during every month of 2011 fell compared to the year-ago period. Much of that was due to the tax credits being in effect during the first half of 2010, inflating sales.
On a month-to-month basis, sales have risen almost every month, like they typically do as the weather gets warmer.
So far this year, metro Birmingham home sales total 5,587, trailing 2010 by 10.4 percent.
For the remainder of 2011, year-over-year sales comparisons could remain somewhat skewed because of the tax credits, which many believe pulled forward sales that would have happened later that year.
Sparks noted that interest rates remain historically low, which is a good sign for future sales. In fact, he's noticed some buyers who are focused more on rates than prices.
On Tuesday, the Federal Reserve announced it would keep its low interest rate policies in place for at least two more years, as talk of a new recession has caused more anxiety for already-wary consumers.
The move should give people considering big purchases, such as homes, more confidence about low borrowing costs.
During July, the average sold price for a home in metro Birmingham was $180,641, a 5 percent rise from a year ago, while the median sold price was $147,500, up 5.4 percent.
Meanwhile, the year-to-date average price is $173,425, up 4.4 percent over 2010, while the year-to-date median price is $142,292, even with last year.
Foreclosures continue to make up a healthy chunk of home sales and pull down overall prices.
In July, 284 foreclosures were sold, or 28 percent of total sales. The average sold price of foreclosures was $80,262, while the average sold price of non-foreclosures was $209,804.

The Michigan State women's rowing team is making it's 13th appearance in 14 seasons at the NCAA Championships, which begin today in Sacramento, Calif.
But this year, the Spartans have had two local athletes fill significant roles on the team.
Junior Brianna Lakanen (Forest Hills Northern) and sophomore Theresa Geelhoed (Grand Rapids Christian) will race in the varsity eight and varsity four boats, respectively, this weekend.
"We have a pretty good group," said coach Matt Weise, who is in his seventh season. "They really keep their heads about them when things go both right and wrong."
Lakanen has been rowing since her freshman year at FHN, while Geelhoed started rowing this past September after swimming competitively in high school. Junior Alex Reinink (Forest Hills Northern) joins Lakanen and Geelhoed as the only representatives from the area on the varsity roster.
"Rowing is the ultimate team sport," Geelhoed said. "You need to be in tune with everyone in the boat. I'm still doing my best to learn every day."
While making important contributions to their respective boats, the Grand Rapids natives also credit the eight seniors on the MSU roster with making sure their time is not wasted.
"We all put in the amount of hard work that we need," Lakanen said. "We have a lot of dedication, and having seniors within your boat really helps."
Weise has noticed the difference the seniors make for him and his staff.
"All of our seniors bring something different," he said. "It's really nice to be able to go to them and pick and choose what we need to help the team."
A championship would be the first NCAA title in program history, and Geelhoed said she knows they need to work together to make that happen.
"You put your personal goals behind you and just feed off everyone around you so you can do the best for the team."
SENIORS Melissa Oosterhouse and Monica Bressler of the Calvin College women's tennis program were named first-team academic all-district IV this week by the College Sports Information Director's Association of American. Oostherhouse and Bressler now are eligible for academic All-America consideration which will be voted on next month.
THE AQUINAS COLLEGE men's basketball program signed Nick Gregory (Chippewa Valley) for the 2011-12 season. Gregory joins Vaughn Avecilla and Bryan Mitzner of Warren DeLaSalle, Ken Gordan (Kalamazoo Valley CC) and Connor McCane (Rockford) to round out this year's recruiting class.
GERRY ADAMS announced his resignation as Aquinas women's tennis coach this week citing personal business interests and family responsibilities. Adams parts ways with the Saints after leading the program for nine seasons.

Senate Bill S-3886 was passed in the New York State Senate on April 13. This bill, called "Lauren's Law" deals with changing the New York State driver's license to have a check off box if an individual does NOT want to be an organ donor should they die during an accident.
It was backed in the Senate by Staten Island State Sen. Diane Savino, and has brought us to the halfway point in having this option become law in New York State.
Its mirror Bill in the state Assembly, cosponsored by Assemblyman Matthew Titone is A-6148, and it is stuck in committee in Albany.
This simple change on the state driver's license can save the lives of thousands on New Yorkers should it pass. If you don't want to be an organ donor, just check the box. It's that simple.
Now is the time for Staten Islanders to contact your Assembly person, and ask him or her to push for bill A-6148 to get out of committee and on to he desk of the governor.

LOS ANGELES -- The NBA's intrepid leader, Commissioner David Stern, was a man smiling broadly before Game 1 of the NBA Finals commenced here Thursday night at Staples Center.With good reason, of course,
The league's two most decorated franchises with 32 championships between them, were about to square off for the second time in three years -- and 12th time overall -- to determined yet another title, yet someone wanted to know whether such dominance by two clubs was good or bad for the league and what the NBA could do about such one-sidedness.
"Yeah, we could have taken Bill Russell and Red Auerbach away from the Celtics and deprived Dr. (Jerry) Buss of his ownership of the Lakers, " Stern said. "He's been an owner for 30 years and the team has been in the Finals 15 times.
"You know you give credit where credit is due, to Russ, to Jerry, to Red. That's what our sport is about. Hats off to the Lakers and the Celtics for being persistent and consistent winners in this league."
That said, Stern and the rest of the world saw Kobe Bryant pour in a game-high 30 points and watched the Lakers somewhat struggle past the Celtics in the first game, taking a 102-89 win, a foreboding statistic for Boston: Phil Jackson-coached teams that have won the first game of a playoff series were 47-0 heading into Thursday night.
Will the Lakers make that 48-0?
Game 2 is up Sunday at Staples, and the Celtics will be working hard over the next three days to see if they can find a way to box out the Lakers' front line, which dominated the glass to the tune of a plus-11 advantage, 42-31. including 12 offensive rebounds.
And despite the teeth-gnashing of those who feel there's over-saturation of Lakers and Celtics in the Finals, Stern wasn't one of the naysayers.
"I think it actually acts as an incentive, " he said. "What do you do? You build. You build through the draft. And then you see these teams, and you realize it's not about one player changing teams, it's about creating a team, constructing a team, having the right coach, having a team work together and having players prepare to sacrifice.
"And I think that's what we saw in the '80s when they were playing each other. When I became commissioner, I thought what you did every June is you went from L.A. to Boston and back again, and it was interesting to watch. And now, here we ware again. The Lakers have been in three years in a row and the Celtics are back two out of three. And they're not here because of the green and the purple and gold. They're here because of the teams that have been constructed, the coaches that they have and the systems that they have."
No one Thursday night was mistaking the two teams on the floor for the Magic Johnson-Larry Bird Lakers and Celtics, or the Russell/John Havlicek-Jerry West Celtics and Lakers, the modern-day combantants did what they could to put their own stamp on the rivalry.
"That wasn't the prettiest basketball game I've ever seen in my life, " Jackson said. "But we sustained the lead in the second half despite some tough sequences. They contested well at times, but we got some easy baskets and transition points that helped edge it."
Bryant scored 12 of his 30 points in the third quarter as the Lakers pulled away to a 20-point lead at period's end, 84-64. Pau Gasol finished the game with 23 points and 14 rebounds, the only double-double of the evening.
"I thought Pau played a big game tonight, " Jackson said. "He found some rhythm but his movement and activity were important."
But the Celtics, led by Paul Pierce's 24 points, wouldn't go quietly, mounting a 10-1 run at the outset of the final quarter to trim the Los Angeles advantage to 85-74 with 8 ½ minutes remaining, leaving the sellout Staples Center crowd a bit edgy.
"That sent the game right back into contesting mode again, " Jackson said.
Not to worry, however.
The Lakers managed to pull away down the stretch, leaving the Celtics, who led the game for only the first 1:12 after Rajon Rondo scored the game's opening bucket on a driving layup, wondering if they could find a way to neutralize Los Angeles' potent and diverse scoring punch while discovering an answer to some questionable rebounding.
"I thought the Lakers were clearly the more physical team, more aggressive and attacked us the entire night, " Celtics Coach Doc Rivers said. "I didn't think we handled it very well. They killed us on the glass. It was impossible for us to get any rhythm. It was their play. They were terrific today."

Fort Macomb, often seen as the stepchild to the more well-known Fort Pike, is in need of some tender loving care after being battered by Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Gustav. Volunteers are needed Saturday to help restore the
damaged fort near Venetian Isles to its former glory, so it can be opened to the public for the first time.
Fort Macomb is one of two forts designed by Simon Bernard around 1820 to protect New Orleans from invasion: Fort Pike guarded the Rigolets and Fort Macomb guarded Chef Menteur Pass. Both forts were damaged in Hurricanes Katrina, Gustav and Isaac, but because Fort Pike was open to the public before the storms, it is receiving assistance from FEMA to recover.
Fort Macomb, on the other hand, must rely on donations and volunteers. Efforts were in place to help restore Fort Macomb after Hurricane Katrina, but were halted by Hurricane Gustav. While trying to clean up after Gustav, BP made Fort Macomb a staging area for National Guard operations. The Guard's heavy equipment contributed to the fort's current condition.
So, a volunteer cleanup of Fort Macomb is being held by the Friends of Fort Pike and Fort Macomb on Saturday at 9 a.m.
"We don't have the resources to work with this park, and that's why it's dilapidated and slightly unpleasant, said Louisiana Office of State Parks park manager Victoria Baiamonte. "We're trying to get our community involved so we don't lose Fort Macomb. People get upset that Fort Pike isn't open, but we do have this other fort right here and it's a part of our park: Fort Pike's satellite site."
The biggest issues plaguing Fort Macomb are
overgrowth and the piling up of debris. "We're trying to get people in here to
cut down some of these trees because they are really hurting the structure of
the fort," Baiamonte said. "The roots are growing into the brick and it eats up
the mortar and kind of makes it fall apart, which is why there are so many
loose bricks."
Some fort insiders believe Fort Macomb is more interesting than Fort Pike, and they like the fact that it's a little closer to the heart of New Orleans. Archaeologist and historian Joseph Yarbrough, the head of Friends of Fort Pike and Fort Macomb, said, "We are very excited about Fort Macomb because it's a little smaller, has more magazine rooms and is a lot more intact."
Baiamonte and Yarbrough would like to see Fort Macomb open on an appointment-only basis soon. Baiamonte said, "I know people snuck in here for years, and it's the same kind of story: People have gone on their first dates here and we just want to have it open for them to come back and see it."
The volunteer cleanup of Fort Macomb will begin Saturday at 9 a.m. Volunteers should wear tennis shoes or shrimp boots, pants, long-sleeved shirts and gardening gloves. Volunteers are also urged to bring their own gardening tools, water, snacks, large garbage bags and insect repellent.
Cleanup organizers are also hoping someone will show up with a Bobcat, as well as water, snacks and tools for the volunteers. Volunteers and potential donors can contact Joseph Yarbrough at 985.285.3330 or firstname.lastname@example.com for further details.

Driver of car that ended upside down in a pond had been driving recklessly, police say
The accident that landed a car upside down in a pond, put two people in the hospital and closed the on- and off-ramps to West Valley Highway South to Peasley Canyon and Highway 18 West for hours Thursday afternoon was caused by reckless driving, according to Auburn Police.
Auburn Police Commander Mike Hirman said the car with two men and one woman inside had been traveling recklessly south in the 1300 block of West Valley Highway north when an Auburn officer saw it passing in a no-passing zone. Once the car passed the officer, the officer made a U-turn, and when the suspect saw this, he sped up.
"The officer at first tried to catch up, but quickly decided not to, out of safety [concerns] to the public," Hirman said. "The officer went looking for the suspect vehicle, and after a few minutes found the car in the deep ditch, upside down."
According to Hirman, the two passengers had already left the car on their own, but the driver was still seat-belted in, unconscious and under water. The officer got the man out and performed CPR on him until Medics could get there.
Valley Com dispatched the Valley Regional Fire Authority at 1:44 p.m. Firefighters treated the occupants at the scene, and transported the woman to MultiCare Auburn Medical Center. VRFA water rescue technicians searched the vehicle and found no other occupants. King County Medic One transported the driver to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, where his condition is unknown.
As of Friday afternoon, no names had been released.

Quite often I am beset with questions as to the accuracy of our published tides. The concern is that the published tides were not even close to the predicted tides for that day. In an attempt to explain some of these differences, let me clarify how the published tides are obtained and how you should use them.
Ask. Capt. Paul Titus
If you have a question about tides, solunars, GPS positions or more, e-mail email@example.com, and Titus will answer them as a part of our weekly outdoors coverage.
Ocean tides are mainly caused by the gravitation pull of the sun and moon on the earth. Based on this astronomical data, tides can be predicted for years in advance. Most, if not all of the tidal data comes from published data from the United States Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NOAA is the "official" agency that records, archives and predicts tidal information for the United States government. The predictions are based on the astronomical data for main recording stations. The main recording stations in southeast Louisiana are South Pass and Grand Isle, East Point.
NOAA also provides data for subordinate stations, which make up our weekly published locations. Predictions for the subordinate stations are obtained by applying specific differences to the times and range heights of tides based on the main reference stations. These offsets take into consideration the many "choke" points that are between the open sea, the main station and the subordinate location. These bottleneck locations around islands, in bayous, bays and lagoons cause a drag on the flow of the tidal water and delay the water conditions around these subordinate stations.
Louisiana is not like most other coastal locations where there are fixed shorelines adjacent to the open oceans. The Louisiana estuaries have numerous bottleneck locations that restrict the water movement, but more important, the water in these areas is quite shallow.
The "offset" data is an accurate factor, but it does not take into consideration the weather at the locations. A mild prevailing wind for several days or a strong wind for a brief time can negate the total tidal movement in the marsh areas. This is especially true when the tidal range is less than two feet. These winds can actually reverse the water movement in adjacent passes or in the marshes themselves.
So when checking the tides for your next fishing trip, keep a watchful eye on the weather, especially for the winds in your area. Be sure to include data from the offshore buoys that indicate the offshore winds as they indicate how much water is "stacked" along the coastline.
Use the information from all sources to make an intelligent decision about your trip.
- Captain Paul Titus

WILLOUGHBY, Ohio - North Royalton's football team can never be counted out as long as Travis Tarnowski is under center.
Tarnowski passed and ran the Bears to 38-35 victory Saturday night over host and previously-unbeaten Willoughby South at Harry E. Winters Stadium.
With the victory, the Bears (10-1), ranked sixth in The Plain Dealer, move on to Saturday's regional semifinal game against St. Ignatius (10-1) at a site to be determined today. The Wildcats are ranked No. 2 in the area and fourth in Ohio while South, ranked third in the area and fifth in the state, bows out at 10-1.
Tarnowski unofficially completed 25 of 39 passes for 367 yards and four touchdowns. He also rushed for 72 yards, including 54 second-half yards when the Bears reeled off 24 unanswered points.
"Tarnowski? What can I say," said Royalton coach Nick Ciulli. "He's done this 11 weeks in a row. He's special and I get to coach him at least one more week."
With the game tied at 28-28, North Royalton grabbed a 35-28 lead with 13 seconds left in the third quarter on Austin Smith's 5-yard touchdown run and Casey Mayell's extra point.
It capped a seven-play, 64-yard drive, bolstered by an 11-yard reception by Nick Krempasky, a 6-3, 175-pound senior. Krempasky, a standout basketball player who is in his first season of playing football, finished with 10 receptions, good for 161 yards and two touchdowns.
"All my friends told me I had to play this year and I couldn't let them down," said Krempasky. "I don't know what to say -- this is a big shock because nobody knew what we could do this season."
Tarnowski, who spread the wealth by using six different receivers, connected with Krempasky for a 19-yard gain before Mayell kicked the clinching field goal -- a 29-yarder -- with 2:06 remaining.
"That's my guy, he makes me look good," said Tarnowski, referring to Krempasky. "He's the one going up and making all those catches.
"I just love that guy."
Royalton's defense also did the job, limiting South's standout tailback Kareem Hunt to 179 yards and two touchdowns but only 32 of those yards came in the second half.
"The ball didn't necessarily bounce our way and that's what you get, but that's a really good team," said Rebels head coach Matt Duffy.
"They did a nice job on both sides of the ball, and I give them all the credit in the world."

DETROIT – Joey MacDonald wasn't expecting to play Sunday against the Chicago Blackhawks.
Not with starter Jimmy Howard healthy once again after missing nine games last month with a broken finger.
But things can change quickly and that's exactly what happened when Howard suffered a possible groin injury in the first period. Howard was unable to return in the second period and MacDonald was pressed into action with the score tied at a goal apiece.
MacDonald stopped 12 of 13 shots but saw his personal seven-game winning streak end in a 2-1 loss at Joe Louis Arena.
"As a backup goalie, you have to be prepared all the time," MacDonald said. "I didn't know anything was happening until I was told. It's tough coming into a game like that but you have to be ready at all times. Four or five minutes into intermission I was told. It's just one of those things.
"You can't not be ready. You get thrown into action whenever, first period or second period, you have to be ready. I don't think (Howard's injury is) too serious. Day to day. It's another opportunity for me to keep going."
Chicago snapped the 1-1 tie with 1:19 left in the second period, when Blackhawks star Patrick Kane scored his 16th goal of the season and third in four games.
"He's one of the best players in the league and he made a good move," MacDonald said. "I thought we battled pretty hard and we didn't have a whole lot of second chances. Their 'D' did a great job of letting (goalie Ray Emery) see our shots.
"When you don't have Nick (Lidstrom) or (Pavel Datsyuk), two guys like that in the lineup, it always hurts. But you know what? It's time for guys to step up and guys are stepping up. Young guys are getting an opportunity to play more than usual and they're doing a pretty good job.
"We still have a lot of hockey yet. You can't be watching (standings). You glance at it and don't worry about it. We have some injuries here but it's better to get those injuries over now. We've got 17, 18 (games) left. Go from there."

SALT LAKE CITY (RNS) All those stories about Mitt Romney's White House bid and his Mormon faith educated millions of observant Americans about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

WASHINGTON TWP. — The announcer's building at the East Holly Avenue football complex has been repeatedly vandalized over the years, with the most recent spree resulting in property being stolen, according to township officials.
Charlie Doud, commissioner of the youth football organization, said the continued vandalism has been happening for "two or three years" but no one has ever been held accountable.
Doud, who believes the perpetrators are restless teens, said the organization usually finds the building's door has been broken, locks have been busted, and windows destroyed.
"We don't house anything there except we use it for storage and we do out the sound equipment downstairs," Doud said.
Last week it was vandalized again, he said. "Things were broken but nothing was taken."
However, sometime over Easter weekend, the sound equipment was stolen. Doud estimates its value at about $2,600 and the damages will add up to be about $1,000.
"This is a volunteer program so now we have to go out and burden the parents for more money, more donations to not only fix the building for the umpteenths time, but go out and buy all new equipment," Doud said.
Reports have been filed with the police department. Doud said he hopes that those who are responsible will come forward, or perhaps a parent who has noticed suspicious activity will call the township's parks and recreation program to report it.
To provide information, call the township parks and recreation office at (856) 589-3227 or go to the football organization's website at www.wtyfb.org to send an email.

Hello everyone. We have Directv at home and I ordered a kit from Satellite Oasis to use in our RV. It's an 18 x20 Triple LNB for 101, 110, and 119. The receiver is an H24. It worked pretty good and was easy to set up (or so I thought) On our last trip out, the dish fell forward during a storm and landed on the LNB. It quit working and I've been unable to establish a connection since then. I took the dish home and disconnected a TV in the house and connected the RV dish to an H24 in the bedroom. I changed all the settings to reflect the new zip code and type of equipment. 18x20 with multiswitch and I'm, still not able to make a connection. We've checked the wiring to make sure the connections are tight, but nothing seems to work. There are no dings, or visible signs of damage to the LNB or to the dish. What would be the most likely cause of the problem I am describing? Are LNB's that delicate? I've ordered a replacement LNB. Should I replace all the wiring also?

I would definitely replace the LNB. Yep, they won't take being banged around like that.

Most likely is not the LNB but rather the LNB arm. you might need to replace the entire dish.
Here's to the crazy ones.

They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo.

Schools exist to prepare students for the future, and a healthy lifestyle is needed, as well. That, and a lot of other things: compare that Westfield's music program is one of the top 10, out of 30,000 entries, in the GRAMMY AWARDS for 2014. Maybe even a winner. I don't suppose the naysayers find that to be impressive for such a small school.

Yeah, yet another example of a school administration with more hubris than brains. Oh, hai guyz! We're a year or three from closing entirely, but let's spend a bunch of money on some workout hardware! Awesome, Lolz!

Great idea if you had a growing school district. Brocton Schools are slowly and painfully dieing on the vine. Why waste tax payers money? When will this State wake up and order the states school districts to form County wide districts?

Battle at the Boat 82: Federal Way heavyweight Thompson looks to stay unbeaten | Fight Night to the Playboy Mansion
Federal Way heavyweight Vincent Thompson will try to stay undefeated in Battle at the Boat 82: Fight Night to the Playboy Mansion. The action begins at 7 p.m. June 4 at Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma.
Thompson's opponent will be Kelsey Arnold of Lexington, Tenn. Arnold (4-7-1) is coming off a loss to undefeated Andy Ruiz Jr., a top ranking heavyweight in Mexico.
Thompson (7-0, 2 KO) won his last fight on March 19 by dominating Ryan Shay (5-12). Thompson pounded away at Shay in a bout that was stopped at 1:26 in the second round. Shay repeatedly took a knee throughout the second round as Thompson poured on the pressure with a flurry of head and body shots.
Thompson, 28, recently signed a promotional contract with Brian Halquist Productions and is trying to get more professional wins under his belt. Thompson's stock as a boxer was boosted by a Nov. 13 victory over the previously unbeaten Charles Ellis, a former 2003 National Golden Gloves Heavyweight Champion.
Fight Night to the Playboy Mansion
Battle at the Boat 82 will feature ring card girl contests and famous Playboy Playmates including Tacoma native Stacy Fuson, Playboy Radio host and former Playmate of the Month Pilar Lastra, Bridget Marquardt from TV's "The Girls Next Door," photos with Playmates and more. The winner of the ring card girl contest will win a trip to the world famous Playboy Mansion in California and a chance to be featured in Playboy Magazine.
Fight card
The evening's fight card includes Tacoma heavyweight Jonte Willis (7-0-1, 3 KOs). Willis faces hard-hitting Canadian Shane Andreesen, who sports a record of 10-3-0 with six wins coming by knockout.
Willis, the 2006 United States Amateur Super Heavyweight Champion, won the Super Heavyweight Championship at the Tacoma Golden Gloves in 2007 – defeating Canada's No. 2 ranked superheavyweight Brandon Lowrie – before defeating two-time United States Champion Michael Hunter at the West Regional Golden Gloves in Las Vegas and moving on to the National Golden Gloves tournament where he lost in the semi-finals to Tyler Turner.
Willis turned pro in November 2007, knocking out Isouf Kone in the third round in his debut performance. He proceeded to win his first seven bouts — three by knockout — before drawing with David Long (10-1-1) on Jan. 15.
Other fights on the card:
• Heavyweights Sylvestor Barron (1-1-0) vs. Ija Flapping Eagle (3-2-1)
• Heavyweights Joey Montoya (4-0-2) vs Andrae Carthron (5-7-2)
• Super featherweights Rob Diezel (5-4-2) vs Aaron Schupp (2-0)
• Light middleweights Nate Serrano (2-0) vs. Randell Corpus (Debut)
Tickets and info
Battle at the Boat 82 takes place June 4 at Emerald Queen Casino's I-5 Showroom. Doors open at 6 p.m., fights start at 7 p.m. Tickets range from $35 to $100 and are available at Emerald Queen Casino's box office at (888) 831-7655 or at www.ticketmaster.com.

The cover for F1 2010 looks like it has an F1 driver playing a very tiny piano. Take another look and you'll see it. But there are no tiny, midi or even full-sized pianos in F1 2010. This is aiming to be an authentic experience, after all: one of the best reasons for Codemasters to bother making it, other than the fact it's one of the few sports the English can currently claim to be good at, is in the incredible look and sound of the real-life vehicles. Who, as a young child, didn't occasionally run around imitating the noises (something like this: vreeeeeee vreeee vroooooooom vree vree vree eeeeeeeeeeee) of an F1 car?
These magnificent machines exist at the very peak of man's constant endeavour to turn boring fossil fuels into exciting propellants, are super flashy and go around racetracks really fast. It's almost a guaranteed recipe for videogame success.
Of course, one of the worst reasons for Codemasters to make a new F1 game is that almost all developers who've tried to wrestle with a videogame rendition of the sport have made a bit of a hash job of it. The problem with the cars is that they go too fast, they're impossible to handle and, for all the attempts at realism, nobody actually wants to drive around a poorly disguised oval sixty times.
The general idea, of course, is not to make the aforementioned hash job of F1 2010 but instead to produce an engaging blend of realism and accessibility. Codemasters are currently unwilling to label their title with loaded terms such as 'arcade' or 'simulation,' instead wanting to let it roam free without the conservative restraints of genre pigeonholing and instead sell us on the concept of being an F1 driver and living the life.
Which means a career mode with a sexy female - busty, pouty, wears glasses - agent and, for successful drivers, pesky journalists hounding you into submission at every corner. I'd also like to wager a book deal where you can pick your own inspirational title. It's all a concentrated attempt to turn your time off the circuit into something more substantial than scrolling through text menus for a few minutes a pop.
Long-term success comes from beating your rival teammate in events, as winning the favour of your all-important brass and gaining access to their seemingly bottomless coffers will grant you the money (and time) to tinker with your car. It's kind of like how Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton are feeling right now, I imagine, only in accessible videogame form.
Fans of fiddling with automotive bits and bobs will also be delighted to see the inclusion a test track, a love of top of the line R&D and the incremental upgrading your car over the course of the season, too, which also allows the game to focus on getting your car burning rubber on days other than Sunday.
But no matter how involving the stylish career mode becomes, with a game themed around F1 the star of the show is always going to be the racing. And there's lots of it, too, spread across the 19 painstakingly recreated events from the 2010 season. That'll be music to the ears of anyone whose interest in racing goes further than High-Speed Ring.
Taking Red Bull's F1 car for a quick spin around Monza shows just how detailed the game is. Pop the game into an internal camera view - as you always should - and you've got one of, if not the most, graphically impressive racing game on the market, with the fantastic EGO engine providing the industry-leading cockpit view and meticulous attention to detail.
Being this close to your exposed tyres gives the engine a chance to show off, visibly changing when they grind down or pick up debris off the track. But the real star of the show seems to be a dynamic weather engine that promises to add more to the game than flashy aesthetics: the rain is a true sight to behold, with it cooling your car whilst the game effortlessly renders drops bouncing off your vehicle and sheets of it pound down from the heavens. Conversely, Sunny conditions add extra heat to the track and demand you take all-important pit stops more often.
The engine also wears in the track as the race progresses - a process F1 drivers call 'marbling' - which causes your car to end up going faster the further you get into each event. It's attention to details like these that ensure the game already has more clout than the solid but ultimately unremarkable F1 2009 on the Wii.
F1 2010 is also very hard to control, at least at first. Years of comparatively slow-and-steady racing with heavy handlers Forza and Gran Turismo caused most of the journalists giving the game a go to spin out at every corner for at least ten minutes. There's a knack to it, of course, and despite the difficulty it all feels suitably fitting and authentic, albeit in the opinion of someone who has never stepped into the cockpit of an F1 car.
The biggest problem, and it's one that severely shatters the entire illusion of being an F1 driver, is that the AI of the other drivers currently seems severely limited - there's the very real possibility that Codemasters didn't think too much of our ability to handle ourselves on the track and set the demo to Very Easy, however.
It seemed like the biggest danger to success on the track was yourself, and after getting to grips with the handling the game became a cakewalk. This, I am sure, will not be the case with the finished product - though there's the very real possibility of being able to dominate entire grids of players who can't quite get used to the handling during the first couple of weeks.
As far as racing games go, autumn is generally guaranteed to be jam-packed with plenty of times competing for first place in the genre. With a license that's currently enjoying an all-time high in popularity and the technical know-how of the team that produced DiRT and GRID, there should be more than enough momentum behind F1 2010 for it to exit the grid in pole position come September.
F1 2010 will be released for 360, PS3 and PC in September 2010.

2013: A Year of Celebrations for Gretsch's 130th Anniversary
Posted: November 22, 2013
Courtesy of Gretsch.com
2013 marked Gretsch's 130th Anniversary – a milestone that has been celebrated with a wide variety of activities and events throughout the year. Below is a look at some of the celebrations that have made this anniversary so spectacular!
Announcing The Celebration
To ignite the celebration, Fred Gretsch sent out a message to the music world, inviting everyone to join the entire Gretsch family in celebrating their 130th year in the business.
"When my great-grandfather, Friedrich Gretsch, opened his instrument-making shop in Brooklyn, N.Y., back in 1883, he couldn't know that he was establishing a musical dynasty that has continued over four generations," said Fred Gretsch.
In January at the 2013 NAMM show in Anaheim, Calif., the Gretsch Custom Shop launched the beautiful G6118T 130th Anniversary model guitar. It turned out to be a gorgeous instrument, with a high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish in Metallic Gold on the top and Black on the back and sides. The guitar also boasted multiple silver-sparkle bindings.
The anniversary guitars were made even more special by the addition of a badge that boldly announced the company's 130th year as a manufacturer.
"It's a striking design and I'm proud to see it on our instruments," Gretsch said at the time.

Custom Shop Stories: Sara Ray Paints a Killer Duo-Jet
Posted: November 13, 2013
Credit Gretsch Master Builder Stephen Stern and renowned SoCal hot rod artist Sara Ray for teaming up to create another gem of a guitar from the Gretsch Custom Shop.
The '59 Duo-Jet that is headed to U.K. resident Steve Isaacs features a 130th Anniversary logo on a larger headstock and an amazing graphic from Ray. It was the second time Isaacs asked Ray to paint a guitar, the previous one depicting a tattooed pinup.
"I got to know Sara Ray quite well over the past few years," Isaacs said from his home in Poole, Dorsett. "She painted another guitar for me a while ago. When it's time for her to work on a guitar, she sends over couple of sketches, but I really don't like to give her too much direction. She came up with a couple of ideas, and I loved this one the most."
Isaacs had also worked with Stern before, as the enthusiast owns a couple of masterbuilt Telecasters from Stern.
"I didn't know much about Steve Stern, but he had such a fantastic resume. He's worked with some of the world's greatest luthiers," said Isaacs, who noted that he has been playing guitar for at least 30 years.
"He mentioned that I should check out Gretsch. I have to say, he totally converted me. They're great guitars."
The image on Issacs' newest piece is of Anne Bonny, the infamous Irishwoman who became a feared pirate. With a sword slung at her side, Bonny is also holding a boarding pistol.
"I think it really came out amazing," Isaacs said. "It is truly one-of-a-kind, and I can't wait to play it."

Check Out This Stump-O-Matic Tattoo
Posted: July 17, 2013
Fall Out Boy superfan Cordia Jester, who founded the music blog Hit It Off Media, has a special tattoo in the works.
Posting the photo above on Instagram, Jester is close to finishing a tribute to Fall Out Boy frontman Patrick Stump and his signature Gretsch Stump-O-Matic Electromatic CVT.
When contacted about the custom ink, Jester explained her devotion to the band and to Stump.
"My tattoo was actually initially thought of during 'Save Rock and Roll' on their most recent tour," she wrote. "I broke into tears during their set, and afterwards while waiting for Patrick to come sign, I just kept thinking of the one line, and it sounded like the perfect tattoo.
"The words mean so much to me. I've been immersed in music and the music business my entire life, and it is my dream to do something great within the music industry. Saving rock and roll to me is very real. I chose the Stump-O-Matic because it's such a simple, and sleek guitar, and it's recognized as Patrick's guitar. Fall Out Boy was the first large concert I ever went to, and when I was 11 I had this crazy obsession with Patrick. I stuck with him through the whole hiatus.
"He inspires me. He has an amazing way with words. He's truly a person to look up to and aspire to be like; not to mention his voice is like butter. I knew I wanted a guitar behind the lyrics, and it had to be his. It wouldn't be right if it wasn't."
Check out progress of the tattoo via Jester's Instagram account here.

June marks the tenth anniversary of the passing of two Cardinals greats, Jack Buck and Darryl Kile. Following the deaths of Buck (6/18/2002) and Kile (6/22/2002) within one week of one another, a makeshift memorial appeared outside of Busch Stadium as fans left notes, flowers and other items. The team also donned patches on their jerseys for each man. But, Kile's jersey included just one patch for Buck; where every other player would receive a second memorializing Kile.
Did you know that Hall of Famer Lou Brock was born in El Dorado, Arkansas? Arkansas has long been a hotbed for Cardinals fans, including one former president, Bill Clinton. Currently, the Cardinals Hall of Fame Museum has a temporary exhibit at the William J. Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock, featuring over 100 items from the team's incredible collection one of which is Lou Brock's jacket from the 1964 World Series..
In one of the most lopsided trades in Major League history, Brock was acquired from the Chicago Cubs on June 15, 1964, for Ernie Broglio. Ironically, most Cardinals fans felt that Chicago was getting the better end of the deal. However, Broglio was never quite the same pitcher that he had been for the Cardinals, and Brock would go onto a Hall of Fame career. This scorecard from Brock's first month as a Cardinal (6/28/1964) shows Brock with a three-hit day in an 8-2 Cardinals victory over the Phillies. Brock would later retire as the all-time stolen bases leader and a 3000-hit club member.

For a scene-setter, take a glance at the intro to Thursday's Markets Live transcript.
Basically, Spruce Point, a shorting specialist run by a former Barclays trader, Ben Axler, pre-announced in hyperbolic fashion that it was issuing a bearish report on a big unnamed US firm. The news now is that the firm in question is Ametek, an 84 year-old electronic device maker with a deeply ingrained acquisition habit.
True to its word, Spruce has now published a suitably hammy "sell" note, the full text of which is reproduced below.
You can make your own mind up on the investment case here, but be aware that Ametek stock was off an unshattering 2.3 per cent at pixel.
We sense that the investment world is fast becoming like those clone city restaurants, with no tablecloths and too many diners, all talking increasingly loudly to each other in an attempt to be heard. Volume control someone? Read more

Well, look at that, the Boston Red Sox are the hottest team in baseball. Maybe.
The Red Sox are the only team in the majors with an active winning streak longer than three games. That being said, they're 7-3 in their last 10, with that three representing the tail end of the still-ominous 10-game losing streak. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays continue to cruise at the top of the division, going 8-2 in their last 10.
At the very least, the Red Sox have put some space between themselves and last place.
Here's the AL East outlook as of Monday morning:
1. Toronto Blue Jays: 34-24
2. New York Yankees: 29-26, 3.5 GB
3. Baltimore Orioles: 28-27, 4.5 GB
4. Boston Red Sox: 27-29, 6.0 GB
5. Tampa Bay Rays: 23-34, 10.5 GB
The Red Sox are still looking up at .500. However, they have a chance to return to the Promised Land of the Average this week against the Cleveland Indians.
Red Sox-Indians schedule and probable starters
Monday, June 2, 7:05 p.m. - RHP Justin Masterson vs. RHP John Lackey
Radio: 93.7 FM (Boston) / 105.5 FM (Springfield)
Tuesday, June 2, 7:05 p.m. - LHP T.J. House vs. RHP Jake Peavy
TV: NESN, MLB Network
Radio: 93.7 FM (Boston) / 105.5 FM (Springfield)
Wednesday, June 4, 7:05 p.m. - RHP Corey Kluber vs. RHP Brandon Workman
Radio: 93.7 FM (Boston) / 105.5 FM (Springfield)
<<Full listing of Red Sox radio affiliates>>
Five things to watch
1. PSA: Jason Giambi is still playing baseball
He's only batting .143 with a .630 OPS as a DH, but darn it, the 43-year-old former Oakland A and New York Yankee is still at it, going 0-2 with a walk and an RBI in the Indians win over the Colorado Rockies on Sunday.
2. The Indians have some threats in their lineup
Michael Brantley and Lonnie Chisenhall aren't household names, but they're players you should be aware of heading into this week's series. Here's a quick breakdown of the seasons Bratley and Chisenhall are having:
Brantley, LF - 55 G, 9 HR, .307 AVG/.370 OBP/.505 SLG, .875 OPS
Chisenhall, 3B - 44 G, .361 AVG./.412 OBP/.541 SLG, .954 OPS
3. Cleveland is K city
No team in the majors has struck out more batters than the Cleveland Indians, whose pitchers have fanned 508 batters so far this season.
Much of that has to do with 28-year-old Corey Kluber's breakout season. His 3.04 isn't as dominant as some other teams' aces, but his 95 strikeouts are tied with John Lester for the most in the majors. The Red Sox will get a firsthand look at Kluber in the final game of the series.
4. Justin Masterson is having his worst year
It's been rough goings for the former Red Sox middle reliever, who's since grown to be a key top-end starter in Cleveland. In 2014, though, Masterson has posted a career-worst 5.21 ERA and leads the AL with 33 walks allowed.
5. Seriously, how long will this streak last?
It's going to be really interesting to see what happens if the Red Sox manage to win the first two games of the series before going up against Kluber on Wednesday. The Red Sox are a legitimate threat to follow up a 10-game losing streak with a 10-game winning streak. That'd be fun to watch.

Had the airbox opened up abit (freed up the bit feeding air) & removed the resonator box. I have a K&N element in there too. PBV was originally set about 2.8 to 3.0 bar.
However, ever since I opened up the airbox, the engine feels like its revving more freely but it doesn;t seem to have torque anymore. This is most noticable in low revs.
I then moved the PBV pressure down to 2.5 but it didn't help.
Before that it felt like it had more torque (a more direct throttle feel) but less willing to rev.
Any ideas what the problem is?

A former protege of Jay Z, a pop-punk band that has adopted a dance-rock sound, a veteran hip-hop soul combo, a soft-rock balladeer, one of the most commercially successful bands of the late '90s, and a funkmaster who claims in song to be a time-traveling android.
These are the artists that have been announced for VH1's Super Bowl Blitz, a series of shows that'll be held on the six nights leading to the Super Bowl. Rapper J. Cole will perform at Queens College on Jan. 27, sci-fi conceptualist (and dynamite singer) Janelle Monae will appear at Lehman College in the Bronx on Jan. 28, Fall Out Boy will rock Brooklyn Bowl in Williamsburg on Jan. 29, TLC will heat up the Beacon Theatre in Manhattan on Jan. 30, and the Goo Goo Dolls will dizzy up the handsome St. George Theater in Staten Island on Jan. 31.
New Jersey — the place where game is actually being held — gets a show, too. Gavin DeGraw, whose recent "Make a Move" album features writing collaborations with Ryan Tedder and Kevin "Let it Rock" Rudolf, takes over the Wellmont Theater in Montclair on Feb. 1. All six concerts will begin at 11 p.m., and will be shown live on VH1.
Tickets for these concerts aren't on sale. In order to score seats to the shows, you've got to win them. VH1 has promised to post contest details on Twitter, so to guarantee your best chance to attend the Blitz, you're advised to follow the network's account. In theory, this is no different than a radio station offering to give away tickets to a show to the first 200 callers. But in practice, every digital connection you make is stored somewhere, in perpetuity, so followers ought to choose their leaders carefully.

Serious injuries reported in Highway 305 crash
UPDATE: The westbound lane (from Bainbridge to Poulsbo) of Highway 305 re-opened about 9:20 a.m., according to North Kitsap Fire & Rescue. "[D]rivers are strongly advised to stay clear of the area as back-ups remain significant," NKF&R reported. "The eastbound lane is expected to remain closed for at least another hour."
SUQUAMISH — Highway 305 was closed at Suquamish during morning commute time Dec. 16 because of a serious-injury crash involving two cars and a power pole down on the roadway.
North Kitsap Fire & Rescue reported at 8:48 a.m. that at least one person was being airlifted, and at least one more was being transported by ground. NKF&R advised motorists to avoid the area "due to the location of the incident. [I]t appears that there are no detours available to/from the Agate Pass Bridge and Bainbridge Island at this time."
Motorists hoping to take the Bainbridge Island-Seattle ferry were advised to take the Kingston-Edmonds ferry.
Traffic was backed up on Highway 305 to Hostmark Avenue, on Suquamish Way to the Suquamish Tribe administration building, and on 305 to Day Road on Bainbridge.
The collision reportedly occurred shortly before 8 a.m. Three more crashes were reported in the area within the next hour and a half: A collision at Suquamish Way and Division Avenue; a non-injury crash at 305 and Viking Avenue; and a crash with possible injury on Front Street near the Liberty Bay Auto Center.

Counterfeit airbags being reported
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. - If you have had an airbag replaced in the past three years, you may want to have it checked.
Federal officials issued a warning today about counterfeit airbags. They say the phony airbags could fail to deploy or even injure people in a crash.
Officials say one of the fake bags exploded with metal shrapnel during testing.
We spoke with a local car dealership to find out what you can do to protect yourself. "If they're had an accident they're getting their airbags replaced, they need to make sure through their insurance company that their airbags are coming through from a reputable company," said Tim Copenhaver at Champion Chevrolet.
Copenhaver adds by buying something that is not regulated could put you and your family at risk.
