About Wheel Replicas
Replica Wheels are one of the most affordable options when shopping for various styles and options. Wheel Replicas are not OE (Original Equipment) but rather factory reproductions that are similar to OE styles. Replica Wheels are generally cheaper to be made than common brand name wheels due to the fact that many are gravity cast designs. Cruizin Concepts manufacturers many of our factory reproduction wheel replicas and the few models that we do not are imported from reputable factories. All of our wheels are covered by a 1 Year cosmetic warranty and Lifetime structure warranty.

Unbelievable PriceMonday, September 19, 2011James II can't believe you can get Cobra R wheels and Nitto high performance tires for this price! I was a little sceptical at first because they charge extra for shipping, but even after you add the shipping in it is still cheaper by a fair margin.

I seen you guys at Mustang Week and purchased a Ford Mustang SCT Tuner and you guys installed the product and everything for me at the Show at no charge! I appreciated that and couldn't recommend a Mustang Parts supplier more than I would Cruizin Concepts.Frank L.
Own 2 Mustangs and I try to buy all of my parts from you. You have one of the largest selections of Carroll Shelby Parts anywhere and I appreciate that because I've purchased several Shelby parts from Cruizin that I couldn't have gotten elsewhere.Chris V.
You guys ROCK! I always look around before I buy anything for my Mustang but i keep coming back here. Not only that but your VIP program is saving me tons of money and I can find everything I'm looking for on your site. I purchased almost all of my exterior parts from you from my wheels to my body kit and am extremely satisfied.Mike R.
I have been shopping with you guys for years and I have to say it is the best online shopping experience I have ever had. You guys keep making your site easier to navigate and loading it with awesome new features. I also love your selection, it seems like every time I get on here there are new products. You have a customer for life with me.Larry S.
I used to buy my Mustang Parts from another company but i have made a few purchases with you guys and it's like a whole new experience. The whole staff is friendly and helpful and are able to answer all of my questions. But what I love the most is the low prices, and on top of paying less here I get more money for my next purchase!Jen B.
I have to say that I am impressed with your company! The transit time was not the greatest but with the amount I paid it was well worth the couple extra days. I think Cruizin is awesome and will continue to shop with you as long as I have my Mustang.Charles S.
I just got a Cold Air Intake, Exhaust, and Tuner from you guys because the sales guy talked me into it and I love it. First the deal you guys gave me felt like I was getting one of the items for free. And if I wouldn't have got the Tuner with this I think I would have been disappointed. You guys know what you're talking and I couldn't believe the difference in performance just from the Pype's Exhaust, SCT Tuner, and the K&N Intake!Leon W.
I can't believe I just got a Body Kit from you for under $500! That was the Front Bumper, Rear Bumper and the Side Skirts all for less than I could have found just the front bumper at other places. And I got the Body Kit at the end of the week, talk about fast. I called another place and they said it would be about 2 weeks but you guys beat them in every way!William O.
I love shopping online because of the convenience but I don't like the customer service at most places. When I called you about the Steeda Spyder Wheel and Tire Package the rep I spoke with was nice and didn't pressure me in to anything, just let me know the difference in the Nitto Tires and the Toyo Tires. I love the Customer Service and great pricing.Paul B.
Cruizin must be a bunch of experts because I called 3 times and spoke with a different person each time and they all blew my mind on their knowledge of Mustangs and all the Parts. I never even knew what a wind screen or the difference between a styling bar and a light bar until I called. Two thumbs up from me.Tanya H.
Your pricing on the Cipher Race Seats is incredible! I was cautious at first because I have never heard of Cipher before, but when I called about the Corbeau your rep told me about the quality and the many styles they came in. I was still a little worried but once my Race Seats came in I was happy! Great quality, I don't think I would have been happier with any other brand.Robby S.
I love the top notch customer service and knowledge you've given my son and I on several of the Mustang Parts and accessories we have inquired about. I've had the pleasure of speaking with at least 5 or 6 of your customer service representatives and all of them have been able to answer all of our questions. I love dealing with your staff that seems to know Ford Mustangs inside and out!Timmothy J.
I love the look and feel of the new Cruizin Concepts website! You guys seem to have allot more videos and it's even easier to navigate for parts and accessories now. I've ordered from you now for the third time and I always have received quick delivery and what feels like wholesale prices on my parts. Thanks for giving consumers like myself great service and keeping the prices so low!Jeremy H.
Cruizin Concepts is by far my favorite place to shop for parts online. My last purchase was a performance cat-back exhaust system for my 2011 Mustang GT 5.0L and you guys had it shipped out the very same day I placed the order. The site is always makes it easy for me to find my way around and the selection is always great and everything I've purchased has been cheaper through Cruizin than anywhere else. Love accessorizing my American Muscle car with you guys!James W.
All my friends shopped with you guys and I finally had my first experience dealing with Cruizin. I have to say you guys are awesome and I noticed you guys have 365 Day returns and I don't believe I've seen that anywhere else. Just ordered Shelby Wheels and Tires for my 2009 Shelby GT500 and your pricing rocked! The packaging was incredible and you guys make some awesome custom packaging for your high end wheels and tires. Quick shipping and the free installation kit were both nice touches. Thanks.Eric V.

The slow road to peaceNovember 29,2012When youre fighting for your rights, you have a choice to use peaceful methods or violence. Id like to say that peace works best. But as I watch this experiment in the laboratory of the Middle East conflict, Im not so sure.
For years, Palestinians have tried both tactics. Some support Hamas, a militant group in control of Gaza that shoots rockets at Israeli civilians to further the Palestinian cause. Others support Fatah, a political party that controls much of the West Bank, which has renounced violence and vowed to use only peaceful means to achieve a Palestinian state.
The difference between the two has never been more stark: Last week, Hamas rockets terrorized Israeli towns. This week, Fatahs leader, Mahmoud Abbas, is expected to appear at the United Nations to seek recognition as a non-member state.
I wish I could tell you that the reckless violence proved fruitless, while the peaceful bid at the United Nations is poised to be far more effective.
But sadly, it seems to be just the opposite. Hamass rockets resulted in a cease-fire that eased the Israeli blockade on Gaza, giving Hamas a victory to claim. The crisis also produced a flurry of attention and high-level visitors to Gaza from the Muslim world. Fatah basically got ignored.
Meanwhile, Abbas has precious few victories to tout after years of stalemated peace talks. And his statehood bid already seems headed for disaster. Members of Congress have threatened to cut U.S. aid if Abbas goes ahead. Voices in Israel are calling for punishment, including starving Abbass government of import duties, annexing parts of the West Bank, or even finding a way to kick Abbas out of power. Israels right-wing foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, has called Abbass strategy at the U.N. diplomatic terrorism.
Is it any wonder that Hamas is getting more popular? If Abbas is a diplomatic terrorist, why not just vote for the real thing?
Its not the first time that violence has produced a public relations victory while peaceful methods have yielded the perception of defeat. After Israel unilaterally pulled out of Gaza in 2005, Hamas told its supporters that Israel withdrew because of the violent resistance to occupation. Meanwhile, Abbas, who has said there will be no intifada on his watch, has no good story to tell his constituents about why the Israeli settlements in the West Bank keep growing.
And Hamas kidnapped Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, trading him years later for more than 1,000 Hamas prisoners in Israeli jails. Meanwhile, Fatah, which cooperates with Israeli forces to rein in militants, has only gotten a fraction of that number of its prisoners released.
I said, We should release more prisoners to Mahmoud Abbas only because he did not kidnap anybody, Ami Ayalon, former head of Shin Bet, Israels internal intelligence agency, told me.
But no one has ever paid a ransom to a guy who opted not to take a hostage. Thats the heart of the issue: Hamas is like a stick-up man who gets your money by drawing a gun. Abbas is like that traveling salesman trying to sell you something you arent sure you really want. Its easy to slam the door in his face.
And thats exactly what Israel wants this week when Abbas shows up at the United Nations. But is that wise? The statehood bid is one of the last weapons in his nonviolent arsenal. If it is rendered powerless, the rockets have won.
Ayalon, who left government service and co-founded Blue White Future, a new effort aimed at ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, argues that Israel should support Abbass bid in the United Nations, with conditions: Abbas should come to peace talks immediately, and refrain from taking Israel to an international tribunal for six months, or the duration of the talks.
The U.N. bid is unpopular in Israel, Ayalon said, because most Israelis believe that Palestinians only understand force. If we finally see a leader who is speaking diplomacy, he is considered a weak leader, Ayalon said. But unless we send a message to the Palestinians that we can speak diplomacy at least as much as we can speak in military language, we shall not achieve success.
The truth is, violence is easy. Making peace and selling it is hard. But if we believe peaceful U.N. resolutions are better than rockets, now is the time to prove it. We might not get this chance again.

Chicken Cacciatore (Hunter Style Chicken)
As the weather has been cooling I have found myself gravitating towards comfort dishes more and more. This weekend there was a nice sale on whole chickens and I picked some up. The first recipe that I thought of was chicken cacciatore or hunter's style chicken that I had been wanting to try. After looking at a few recipes it seemed to me that chicken cacciatore was pretty much chicken that is braised in a marinara sauce . I really liked the sound of the chicken cooking in the marinara sauce as all of the drippings would meld into the sauce and enhance its flavour. Since the chicken was being braised in the sauce it should come out nice an tender and it should be flavoured by the sauce as well. After thinking for a while I decided to serve the chicken cacciatore on a bed of cheesy risotto.
Marinara sauce is always fun to make and I like to play around with it, trying different things each time. I like to add a splash of balsamic vinegar to my sauces and this time I tried adding some capers as well. Since I had decided to serve the chicken cacciatore on some risotto I grated all of the parmigiano reggiano up front and threw the rind into the sauce for some extra flavour as well.
The hardest part about this dish was dividing the chicken into pieces as I had never done it before. It took me quite a bit of time to get it done but with some practice I should get quicker. (You could just use chicken thighs and avoid having to cut up a whole chicken if you want.) After dividing the chicken the rest of the dish is pretty straight forward and easy. The chicken cacciatore turned out great! The chicken was fall of the bones tender and full of flavour and the sauce was so tasty! In fact I think it is one of the best sauces that I have made. The creamy and cheesy risotto rounded everything off perfectly. After the first meal I pulled all of the chicken off the bones and mixed it into the sauce. The leftovers were even tastier the next day and I have been enjoying them all week. I threw the bones into a freezer bag and tossed them into the freezer to make chicken stock with in the future.
Chicken Cacciatore (Hunter Style Chicken)
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 small chicken (divided into 8 pieces)
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 onion (sliced)
- 1 carrot (chopped)
- 1 stalk celery (chopped)
- 4 ounces mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 red bell pepper (chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 splash balsamic vinegar
- * parmigiano reggiano rind (optional)
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 1 handful parsley (chopped)
- Heat the oil in a large pan.
- Add the chicken and fry skin side down until golden brown and set aside.
- Add the oil to the pan and heat.
- Add the red pepper flakes, onion, carrot, celery, mushrooms and pepper and saute until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and saute for a minute.
- Add the wine, deglaze the pan and simmer to reduce to half.
- Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, stock, balsamic vinegar, parmigiano reggiano, oregano and capers and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Add the chicken and simmer until cooked, about 20 minutes.
Option: For One-Pan: Make this a one-pan meal by adding 1 cup of rice and 2 cups broth or water (or 8 ounces of pasta and 2 1/4 cups broth or water) to the sauce in step 8 and simmer, covered, until cooked, about 20 minutes (or 12 minutes for pasta).

So much happening in BarreMay 06,2013
By Dan Jones
Normally with the kind of beautiful weather we've been experiencing recently, neighbors or colleagues would greet each other with a comment about the weather.
But these days almost everyone in Barre is beginning their conversations with, "Have you seen City Place?" If you haven't seen the progress on the Barre City Place building recently, its massive steel frame virtually sprouted out of the ground overnight, bringing into focus just how big a presence it will have in our downtown.
And then there is the CVCAC building off of Granite Street that is surprisingly large in its own right.
And let's not forget the Blanchard Block and Aldrich Block renovations.
These are all signs of the well documented revitalization of downtown Barre and, by extension, the greater Barre area. With the final touches to Barre's "Big Dig" well underway downtown Barre's physical makeover will soon be complete. But there is the possibility that the overwhelming optimism and enthusiasm over downtown Barre's revitalization may wane a bit once the final pavement has been laid and the last tree has been planted.
Even if that happens, though, it won't last for long. All of these new and renovated buildings in our downtown mean just one thing — jobs, hundreds of jobs.
Literally hundreds of people will soon be working in our downtown and that can only mean great things for our local businesses and property owners. Those new workers will bring with them various needs and wants that will need to be met. They will be grabbing a quick bite to eat or sitting down for a leisurely meal with a client. They will be enjoying a mid-morning cup of coffee and pastry or an after-work craft beer with a colleague. They will be buying a book to read on that trip to the coast or a card and gift for a birthday or anniversary. They will be doing their banking or getting their shoes repaired or buying paint for the new baby's room.
I could go on and on, but the point is that it will be a huge boost to our local economy and the overall vitality of our downtown. And that means that new entrepreneurs will finally begin to fill the empty storefronts that still exist.
There are truly great things happening in downtown Barre and the future looks bright.
On June 7 the Barre Partnership and downtown Barre will be proudly hosting the annual conference of the Vermont Downtown Program and Preservation Trust of Vermont. The Barre Partnership lobbied hard to have this year's conference in Barre as an opportunity to show off our downtown and our renewed community pride. Approximately 250 people including Main Street Program Directors like myself, city planners, and historic preservationists will come to see downtown Barre as a model of downtown revitalization in Vermont.
It is Barre's time to shine and I have no doubt that it will. The Partnership as local coordinators will need local volunteers to help with a variety of tasks including manning the registration/welcome table, guiding visitors to various meeting sites, helping with the awards banquet and more. If you are interested in being the face of Barre's community pride to these important visitors to our downtown, contact me at email@example.com or 477-2967.

Milwaukee band Revomatics re-create '60s surfer music

"Surf music is the punk rock of the early 1960s," said bassist Peter Flessas of the local surf-rock band. "It was dynamic music, but it was all instrumental, and you didn't have to have a big budget. It enabled young musicians to get their music out there." »Read Full Article(2)

The initiatives' four films, "The Abolitionists," "Freedom Riders," "The Loving Story" and "Slavery by Another Name" will screen Sept. 5, 17, Oct. 10 and 22, respectively, with a presiding moderator to facilitate conversations about changing meanings of freedom and equality in the U.S., the news release said. »Read Full Article

A Day for Detroit: U.S. critics celebrate an imperiled art collection
People do not give works of art to museums. Donors of great works of art give their treasurers to the cities they love, to the school children on yellow buses, the couples on dates, the artists and would-be artists, the seniors on a Sunday afternoon.
In a very real sense, the art in our museums belongs to us. It is a public trust. This simple truth is at the core of a foundational ethic within the museum world that prohibits museums from selling works of art to pay off debts. »Read Full Blog Post(4)

Police said a Concord man may have been asleep when he accidentally shot himself in the leg.
Investigators told the Concord Monitor that a woman called police about 12:30 a.m. Tuesday to say her husband had shot himself in the knee.
The woman said her husband appeared to be sleepwalking at the time and woke up when the gun went off.
"We'd like to know what happened and have more details, but the only witness was the person who was shot, and it sounds like he doesn't know exactly what happened," said Lt. Timothy O'Malley.
Police said the man was hospitalized with injuries that were not considered life-threatening. They don't anticipate filing charges.

Up to 15 miners in Western Australia have been fired for doing the "Harlem" Shake" on the job.
Barminco, the owner of the underground Agnew Gold Mine, considered the stunt a safety issue and a breach of its "core values of safety, integrity and excellence," according to a dismissal letter obtained by the West Australian newspaper.
The miners say they were only "having a bit of fun."
A YouTube video shows eight miners wearing safety gear while performing the viral dance trend in the underground Agnew Gold Mine last week, The Associated Press reported.
Those miners and others who watched the performance but did not participate were fired, one of the workers who was let go told the West Australian.
The miners have also been banned for life from every Barminco project around the world, according to AFP.
The company has not responded to requests for a comment.

Honolulu, Hawaii
Honolulu is the capital of and the most populous census-designated place (CDP) in the U.S. state of Hawaii. Although Honolulu refers to the urban area on the southeastern shore of the island of Oahu, the city and the county are consolidated, known as the City and County of Honolulu, and the city and county is designated as the entire island. The City and County of Honolulu is the only incorporated city in Hawaii, as all other local government entities are administered at the county level. In the Hawaiian language, Honolulu means "sheltered bay" or "place of shelter."

While the patient's history and physical examination are the initial steps of making a medical diagnosis, the ability to peer inside the body can be a powerful tool. Ultrasound is an imaging technique that provides that ...

At one point in time the big, long and ridiculously money driven contracts in professional sports were few and far between. These contracts were generally only given to the guy everyone considered a "once in a generation" type player. That was until Alex Rodriguez and the Texas Rangers changed the blueprint for long-term contracts in Major League Baseball. Today, contracts of great length and dollar amounts are signed on a regular basis and in lure of the huge contracts signed this off-season, the Roosevelt's takes a look through history and count down the top 10 biggest contracts in MLB history. Brace yourself; some of these may make you want to change your profession.
Buster Posey: 9 years $164MM
One year removed from breaking his leg in a horrific home plate collision, a collision that changed the rules of baseball, Buster Posey led the San Francisco Giants to their second World Championship in three years. How did he celebrate? By cashing in on a deal worth $164MM over nine years, solidifying him as the Giants backstop until 2022, that's job security.
Felix Hernandez: 7 years $175MM
Before the start of the 2013 season Felix "The King" Hernandez signed a seven-year contract worth $175MM with the Seattle Mariners. The CY Young award winner will see his salary increase each year through 2019 with a team option for 2020. In 9 big league seasons "The King" has never pitched for a playoff bound team, imagine his stats if he played with Griffey and the boys throughout the 90's?
Mark Teixeira and Justin Verlander: 8/7 years $180MM
After stops in Atlanta and Anaheim, Mark Teixeira landed himself an eight year deal worth $180MM with the New York Yankees in 2009 – a deal which mirrors Justin Verlander's seven year 180MM deal with the Detroit Tigers. Teixeira's contract will reach $22.5MM each year over the last 5 years while Verlander will earn $28MM yearly over the last 6 years.
Joe Mauer: 8 years $184MM
Choosing to resign with his hometown team in 2011, Joe Mauer and the Minnesota Twins agreed to an eight year deal worth $184MM. Mauer, often regarded as one of the best the Major Leagues has to offer behind the dish, will earn $23MM each year of his deal. When Mauer first entered the league he was earning nearly $22.7MM less per year than he does today – think about that.
Derek Jeter: 9 years $189MM
"The Captain" and shortstop for the pinstripes since 1996 signed a well-deserved nine year deal worth $189MM in 2001. The contract, which expired in 2010, saw Jeter lead the Yankees to the playoffs every season, reach the World Series 3 times and won it all in 2009. Often known as one of the greatest of all time, Derek Jeter is that "once in a generation" type of player.
Prince Fielder: 9 years $214MM
One of the biggest players (size wise) in the majors Prince Fielder signed one of the biggest contracts in history with the Detroit Tigers in 2012. A contract that pays $23MM over the first two years and $24MM of the next seven years which will be played for the Texas Rangers . Detroit sent Fielder to the Rangers in exchange for Ian Kinsler this off-season. It seems loyalty to a player and contract lengths don't go hand-in-hand.
Clayton Kershaw: 7 years $215MM
Los Angeles Dodgers Ace lefty Clayton Kershaw inked a record setting 7 year $215MM contract this offseason. Through the first 5 years Kershaw will make an average of $30MM per year accounting for $130MM in the first 5 years. He then can become a free agent at age 30 or make $65MM over the last 2 years of the contract, hmm the decisions?
Joey Votto: 10 years $225MM
The Reds slugger Joey Votto agreed to a contract extension in 2012 worth $225MM – essentially securing the first base situation in Cincinnati for the next decade. Votto, considered one of the best hitters in the game, already signed an extension in 2011 worth $38MM, meaning in one season he proved to be worth over $180MM more than he had already earned. Good year? We'd say so.
Robinson Cano: 10 years $240MM
Possibly one of the most disputed contracts in MLB history, the Seattle Mariners inked Robby Cano to a ten year deal worth $240MM this off-season. Cano, who everyone believed would play his career in pin stripes, had only one goal this off season -years and dollars not championships and rings. That's a lot of money for a guy who hasn't run out a ground ball since Nom.
Alex Rodriguez: 10 years $252MM
The first of two appearances on our top 10 list, or should we say top two list seeing as Rodriguez is in a category all by himself being the only player in history to ink two deals worth over $250MM dollars. The first came with Texas in 2001, (before the steroids that is), when the Rangers landed Rodriguez on a mind blowing ten year $252MM dollar deal. Imagine a $252MM contract isn't the biggest you've ever signed. What a life.
Alex Rodriguez: 10 years $275MM
Coming in at number one on our top 10 list is the before mentioned Alex Rodriguez who signed his second $250+MM contract with the Yankees in 2008. The contract was for ten years $275MM, meaning that since 2001 until the end of his career A-Rod will make a yearly salary of $20MM or more each season. Looks like A-Rod's bank account has been taking some steroids as well.

The purpose of screening is early diagnosis and treatment. Screening tests are administered to people without current symptoms, but who may be at high risk for certain diseases or conditions.
Screening Guidelines
The American Lung Association and American Cancer Society both suggest that if you meet the following criteria, you may want to consider screening:
- You are a current or former smoker who quit within the last 15 years
- You are 55-74 years old
- You have a history of heavy smoking (such as one pack a day for 30 years, two packs a day for 15 years)
If you meet these criteria, a low-dose CT scan should be used for screening. A CT scan is a series of x-rays put together by a computer to create images of the lung. This test may be able to identify smaller tumors better than a chest x-ray can.

Walleye – Red Lakes
Walleye are a fast growing freshwater fish found throughout the northern part of North America, including the Red Lakes.
Walleye populations in the Red Lakes crashed in the mid-1990's, ending commercial fishing in 1997. However, through cooperative management and recovery plans, commercial fishing opened up again in 2006, well ahead of schedule. Walleye populations are monitored closely and current levels of abundance are above target levels.
Walleye in the Red Lakes are typically caught using gillnets, which cause little damage to bottom habitat and result in moderate levels of bycatch.
This fish may have high levels of mercury and PCBs that could pose a health risk to adults and children. More info here about mercury and PCBs in Walleye. Check out our mercury in seafood section.

Polls show that between 80 and 90 percent of Americans support stronger background checks on firearms purchasers, and a majority of U.S. senators agree with them.
But THAT DIDN'T MATTER yesterday:
If there was ever a moment that symbolized the difference between the power of public opinion and the strength of a concerted minority, it came Wednesday when the Senate defeated a bipartisan measure to expand background checks on gun purchases.
By the time the vote took place, the outcome was expected. Nonetheless, the result was stunning, as was made clear by the angry reaction of President Obama, who had ...

12" Hokki Stool
HOKKI - for active sitting
3 - 4 years. The 12" HOKKI is an ergonomic stool that transforms stationary sitting into an activity, ideal for brainstorming sessions and other active sitting environments. You're moving, even when you seem to be sitting still. The convex base allows for movement in all directions, which is critical to student development as physical movement both increases well-being and encourages the physical and intellectual maturing process. The polypropylene body is highly stable and durable, but at the same time extremely light. The soft base padding prevents slipping. The foam sitting surface ensures increased safety for children while seated.
- Ergonomic design
- Comfortable and sturdy
- Lightweight and portable
- Stackable to save space
- Encourages stationary sitting for children with the "wiggles"
- A safe seating alternative for children with certain disabilities

Roundup: Masters makes changes in qualifying
AUGUSTA, Ga. The Masters found a way to keep its field small while bringing in more PGA Tour winners.
The PGA Tour is going to a wraparound schedule that starts in October, meaning the six events held in the fall will be part of the FedEx Cup season. Augusta National chairman Billy Payne said Wednesday the winners of those fall events will qualify for the Masters.
The only tour events that dont include a Masters invitation are those held opposite majors or World Golf Championships the Puerto Rico Open in March, the Sanderson Farms Championship in Mississippi and the Reno-Tahoe Open.
All of us take great pride and pleasure in seeing a tournament winner beam with pride and excitement knowing that his victory had earned him an invitation to the Masters, Payne said.
To allow room for more winners, however, the Masters is making its first changes to the qualifications since 2007.
Only the top 12 and ties from the previous Masters will be eligible to return, down from the top 16 and ties. The top eight and ties from the U.S. Open used to be eligible for the Masters. That number will shrink to the top four and ties, same as the British Open and PGA Championship.
In the biggest change, the Masters will no longer include the top 30 from the PGA Tour money list.
The Masters since 2007 has invited the 30 players who reach the FedEx Cup finale at the Tour Championship, and that will remain.
Payne announced one other change effective this year the cut will increase from the top 44 to the top 50, including the 10-shot rule.
The changes to the criteria are to keep the field at Augusta National the smallest among majors. There were 94 eligible players this year including Darren Clarke, who was forced to withdraw with a hamstring injury compared with 156 players at the other three majors.
The largest field in Masters history was 109 players in 1962, and the tournament has not had more than 100 players since 1966. There were 99 players in 2011.
Sox activate Drew, put
Lackey on DL
BOSTON The Boston Red Sox have placed right-hander John Lackey on the 15-day disabled list and activated shortstop Stephen Drew.
In another move Wednesday, they called up right-hander Alex Wilson from Pawtucket. On Tuesday, they optioned shortstop Jose Iglesias to the Triple-A team.
Lackey strained his right biceps against the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday in his first start since major elbow surgery sidelined him all last season.
Iglesias hit .450 in six games for Boston this season. Wilson was 1-0 with a 10.12 ERA in two relief appearances for Pawtucket.
Yanks Jeter resumes
on-field hitting
TAMPA, Fla. Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter has resumed on-field hitting after being shut down last month by left ankle soreness.
Jeter took 32 swings in batting practice Wednesday at the Yankees minor league complex. The 38-year-old superstar also ran for the second consecutive day.
The Yankees captain hasnt played since appearing in a minor league spring training game as a designated hitter on March 23, when the ankle he broke in Game 1 of the ALCS last October bothered him while running.
While not going at full speed, Jeter looked smooth going three times from first to third and three times from third to first on the grass just behind the infield dirt. The 13-time All-Star also fielded 45 grounders at short, and threw to first base for the first time.MORE IN Sports WireOXON HILL, Md. Wade Davis already had closed out a World Series.

Mad Dogg Athletics strives to hold all workshops as scheduled, at the same location, and on the originally scheduled date(s) and times. A small percentage of workshops, however, are postponed due to low enrollment, or sometimes workshops must be postponed or moved due to inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Therefore, we highly recommend that you do not commit to non-refundable travel accommodations or any other arrangements that would result in financial loss due to a cancellation of a training.
We are committed to providing the best training possible as well as an enjoyable experience, and we know that changes in plans can be inconvenient. We will make every effort to keep changes to a minimum, and we appreciate your understanding when changes are unavoidable. In the event of a change, we will communicate the information to each person registered, and we will provide assistance with transferring to the same workshop at a new date/time, or to a completely different workshop altogether. If you are not able to attend a rescheduled or an alternative workshop, you may request to receive a refund of your workshop registration fee. Any associated materials (instructor manuals, DVDs, etc.) may be returned for a refund only if the original packaging is intact and there is no damage to the goods. Please obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) from customer service prior to shipping any materials back to Mad Dogg Athletics.
If you wish to cancel or reschedule a workshop for which you are registered, we are happy to help you with this. You may make changes to your workshop reservation up to 96 hours (4 days) prior to the workshop, without penalty. If you wish to cancel or reschedule prior to but within 96 hours of the workshop, a 20% cancellation or rescheduling fee will apply. You may reschedule your initial reservation a maximum of three times within these terms, but if you are unable to attend after rescheduling on three separate occasions, Mad Dogg Athletics will automatically refund your registration fees paid for that workshop, less a 20% cancellation fee.
If you cannot attend a workshop for which you are registered, it is very important that you contact us, in advance. If you register for a workshop (and therefore, reserve one of a limited number of spots on the workshop roster), but you do not attend and you also fail to contact us in advance of that workshop, you will be considered to have "no-showed" that workshop, and will forfeit all registration fees paid for that workshop; no refunds/credits will be issued. For conferences, trade shows and all other events (e.g., WSSC, etc.), please refer to the cancellation/refund policies associated with that specific event.

There are two really important holidays on a kid's calendar: Christmas and Halloween. Sure, you might argue that Fourth of July should be on there (you get to blow stuff up), but no one really looks forward to it all year the same way.
But those days can easily be ruined. On Christmas, all it takes is to open a package of socks and underwear. On Halloween, there are always neighbors who offer up some awful treats.
Can candy truly be awful? Yeah. Unfortunately it can. And it's usually a matter of people deciding to go cheap. While Old Mrs. Fenstermacher might save a couple bucks buying hard candy rather than chocolate bars, it does nothing for her neighborhood cred. And it just wrecks Halloween for everyone else.
So whether you're in the mood to reflect on your own youthful trick-or-treating or just want some candy pointers to avoid ending up on the trick side of the equation this year, let's unwrap the five worst Halloween treats ...
No. 5: Smarties
Who thought these up? Smarties are those multicolored round candies that are packaged in a roll. You pull both ends of the cellophane wrapper and the fruit-flavored candies fall out.
Oh, yeah, and they have the texture of baby aspirin.
Now, it is true -- some people do like Smarties. But on the whole, when you look at your trick-or-treating haul, these are usually the last things that get eaten.
Receiving them isn't enough for kids to go back to the offender's house with a bag of dog poop and a lighter, but no one ever opens their bag and exclaims, "Oh, yay! Smarties!"
No one looks forward to dumping their haul out on the living room floor and having a Smarties section to their sort pile.
The same can be said for our next strange Halloween "treat" ...
No. 4: Circus Peanuts
Circus Peanuts are the red headed step-cousins of the Easter favorite, Peeps. But while Peeps can get away with it (they are dipped in sparkly, pastel sugar) Circus Peanuts are a harder sell.
These things are hard, banana-flavored marshmallows, colored orange, and shaped like huge peanuts. The words that describe these things don't even go together.
I guess it could be argued that since they were invented in the 1800s, there is some nostalgic value. But you know what else they had in the 1800s? Polio.
While Circus Peanuts are a disappointment, they aren't without their redemption -- in the 1960s, General Mills discovered that by modifying the recipe a bit, they could be added to breakfast cereal, giving the world Lucky Charms. Since then, Americans have never been fatter or had more cases of Type II diabetes.
But, at least Circus Peanuts are candy, unlike our next treat ...
No. 3: Apples
Apples are bad giveaways for a couple of reasons: First, they aren't candy.
Sure, you can argue that people give out apples because they are healthy and won't rot your teeth. And that's fine, hippies, but we get plenty of fruit the rest of the year. Tonight is all about unhealthy, dentist-be-damned refined sugar.
Second, it's really just a waste, because no one eats the apple.
Forget that it's fruit and it's an insult, but even the kids who might eat them are hovered over by protective parents who are looking for hidden razor blades and syringe needles that you obviously planted in the apples to maim the children. (Never mind that if you did that, everyone would know who gave out the Death Apples, so it would be the easiest crime to solve, but we digress).
Suffice it to say, there's a time and place for apples, it's just not Halloween.
The same can be said for our next selection ...
No. 2: Raisins
As if apples weren't insulting enough, some people even have the guts to give out raisins. Let that sink in for a minute: Raisins ... and in those little, tiny, hard to access boxes to boot.
You want kids to be healthy, and that's great -- just not tonight. Tonight is about sugar and high fructose corny syrup, and everyone gets that. Even that smelly old cat lady who gave out the Smarties is on board.
If nothing else, think about your own children. They have to ride the bus with the other kids, and no one is going to be forgiving about the raisins, so come Nov. 1, your kids will pay the price.
But, if you're weird enough to give out raisins, you probably do other weird stuff that your kids are already paying the price for.
The point is this: Raisins are horrible. Let the parents worry about their kids rotting teeth.
Of course, there is one thing worse than giving out raisins for Halloween ...
No. 1: Pennies
At least the preceding two entries (apples and raisins) are arguably still treats. They can be eaten. They still are terrible Halloween treats, but it's better than our No. 1: Pennies.
It would be different if kids were given bags willed with five dollars in pennies, but instead these Halloween treat offenders tape together five pennies and send us on our way. A whole nickel, huh? Gee, thanks.
We can't think of a faster way to get your house egged back to the Stone Age. At least the Halloween community largely ignores the people who turn off their porch light and don't recognize the holiday.
But when you give out pennies, well that's just an insult. Rather than take the pennies that you dug out of the couch or dumped from the change jar in your bedroom, why not take that money to the grocery store and buy a bag or two of Milky Ways? It's just safer for your yard.

By Laurie Johansen, Contributing writer
Taking a child to the doctor can be a frightening experience for everyone involved. It doesn't matter what age the child is, a visit to the doctors can be a very traumatic event. You can make visits to the doctor easier for you and your child by following a few simple suggestions.
Prior to the doctor's visit, be honest with your child about the reason for the visit. If the visit to the doctor is for immunizations, tell your child exactly what to expect. Immunizations require shots and sometimes multiple shots. Tell your child that it will hurt a little but only for a brief moment. Tell your child why it's necessary for them to get immunizations.
If the visit to the doctor is for an illness, again, tell the child what might happen during the appointment. However, reassure your child that you will be with them throughout the entire appointment. The worst thing a parent can do is not prepare the child for the doctor's visit in advance. Tell your child that the doctor will use special tools to look in the ears, the nose and in the mouth. Make sure you also explain the use of a stethoscope. Don't forget to tell your child about the blood pressure cuff. The cuff is tight and can hurt as it tightens around your child's arm. Explain to your child that the tightness is only temporary and the cuff will release its grip as soon as it gets a proper reading. Having your child watch the numbers on the blood pressure machine can keep their mind off the procedure.
If your child is afraid of shots you can ask the doctor to provide a prescription for EMLA cream prior to the appointment. EMLA cream is a topical anesthetic that numbs the skin, thus decreasing the pain. To use EMLA cream, just rub the cream in the area where the shot will be administered. Your child will not feel any pain. The EMLA cream is also good for IVs and lab draws.
Sometimes it is necessary for your child to undergo specialized tests such as ultrasounds, CT scans, X-rays, or other medical tests. Explaining to your child why the specialized test is needed will prepare your child for what might otherwise be scary. You don't have to be exact in your explanation but let them know these tests are needed to get more answers.
Today's pediatric doctors, whether he or she is a specialist in a certain pediatric area or regular pediatric doctor, are very aware of the fear surrounding doctor's visits. Many doctors today no longer wear the white lab coats because of the fear that the lab coats create. If your doctor still dresses like a doctor, you might suggest prior to the visit that the doctor remove his or her lab coat. Explaining to your doctor the fears your child has will make the doctor more comfortable in treating your child, and in turn, create a much more likable relationship between doctor and child.
The most important thing to remember is that your child will show fear and frustration, if you show fear and frustration. Putting yourself in your child's shoes will help you better understand their feelings. Acknowledging your child's feelings is an important part of successful parenting. Telling your child it's okay to be scared and mad is acceptable, that you are scare and mad, too. However, make sure you tell them that together you both will get through the doctors visit.

Specifications became available this week to prospective Final Four hosts, with the intention of announcing in November 2014 the winners.
The 2014 Men's Final Four will be played at AT&T Stadium, formerly known as Cowboys Stadium and the home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, in Arlington, Texas, followed by Indianapolis in 2015 and Houston in 2016.
"We're excited to begin what we expect to be a competitive bid process," said Ron Wellman, chair of the selection committee and director of athletics at Wake Forest University. "Through the years the Final Four has evolved from one of the country's favorite events into one of the world's most popular events, so it's a tremendous opportunity for cities to be the center of the sporting universe."
A declaration of intent to bid, including draft budget, hotel rates and confirmation of adherence to the NCAA's bid specifications is due by Nov. 15.
Finalists are announced in January 2014 following meetings with individual host committtees in December.

If your dad is like most, he's got the innate masculine love for all things gadget-related.
I know my own father was a sucker for anything that promised added success in the garden, no matter how goofy or ill-conceived it turned out to be. Some dads covet golf gear, others want car or motorcycle goodies and some will pretty much salivate over anything shiny.
This year, for Father's Day, let's give the ties and colognes a rest (he hates the ties, and dumps most of the cologne down the toilet) and get Dad something he really wants: toys!
Of course, being big-boy toys, some of these cost a bit more than an Erector Set or a box of Legos, but we're talking about the guy who taught you how drive a stick and bought you your first baseball glove.
Who's Your Caddy?

Vt. is gun friendly with low homicide rateBy WILSON RING
THE Associated Press | May 06,2013WILSON RING / AP PHOTO
The Rev. Marcel Rainville, right, poses with his father, Maurice, 97, outside one of their barns in Swanton. Marcel Rainville, 69, got his first gun when he was 9 and still hunts every fall.SWANTON Marcel Rainville was 9 when a priest gave him his first gun, a .22-caliber pump action rifle. When he was in high school, his father gave him a 12-gauge shotgun, still stored upstairs in the home where he grew up.
Every fall, Rainville a 69-year-old Catholic priest in charge of preparing men to enter the Society of St. Edmund religious order returns to the family farm among the rolling fields of northwestern Vermont where his father taught him to hunt.
There is no contradiction, he says, between his life of faith and his lifetime connection to firearms.
I guess what Im saying is that a firearm is a tool, its not a weapon, Rainville said. Its something that we use in the context of an activity which involves family, it involves tradition. It has a lot to do with a way of life. I guess family is at the center of it.
The right to hunt is enshrined in the Vermont Constitution; the state often considered the most liberal in the country has no state gun control laws. A 2001 study found that 42 percent of Vermont homes had firearms, above the national average of 31.7 percent. Yet the states rate of homicide by firearms is so low the numbers dont register in statistics kept by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The nationwide cry for gun control in the wake of the shooting rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School and in the course of the failed effort to pass tougher gun laws in Congress has been heard in Vermont. But it hasnt taken hold.
The fact is Vermonters dont own weapons to kill and maim other human beings. They own weapons to manage our natural resources and to carry on hunting traditions that are the glue to our family units and the glue to our communities, said Gov. Peter Shumlin, who frequently talks of his life as a deer hunter. Hes even taken reporters hunting with him.
We have extraordinary respect for both the usefulness and the potential destructiveness of weapons, he said. We dont use them to turn them against innocent people.
Vermonts relationship with guns was highlighted this year when the magazine Guns & Ammo published a survey that ranked the 50 states and the District of Colombia for their friendliness to gun owners. Arizona and Vermont, which frequently find themselves on opposite ends of the political spectrum, ranked one-two as the most gun friendly states, with nearly perfect scores.
There are no restrictions in Vermont on the use of concealed weapons or magazine sizes and the ability to buy assault rifles. The survey said the only reason Vermont didnt get a perfect score was because the state didnt have a stand your ground law that broadens the conditions under which people are allowed to use deadly force to protect themselves.
Vermonts gun culture is not entirely benign. The states suicide rate with firearms ranks seventh in the country.
And police warn of an increasing threat posed by out-of-state drug dealers, many of whom are arrested with high-power firearms more associated with big-city gang warfare than with Vermont deer hunters, but few of those weapons have been used to commit crimes, so far.
On Town Meeting Day in March, at least five Vermont communities approved nonbinding measures calling for bans on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines as well as expanded background checks. But a gun control effort was quashed in the Vermont Legislature almost as soon as it was introduced this year.
Shumlin isnt pushing for gun control legislation. Instead, he favors what he calls a 50-state solution to gun control.
Vermonts chief Game Warden Col. David LeCours has spent 30 years dealing with poachers. In most cases, he said, poachers dont think of using their high-powered weapons against the wardens.
Theyre very well armed, he said. Those individuals generally think about trying to get away as opposed to engaging in a fight.
But Vermont is changing, LeCours said, and hes finding that an increasing number of residents dont own guns.
We occasionally get a sick animal or something that shows up in peoples dooryard, and back in the day they would call you after theyd already killed it and say, You know, maybe I had a rabid animal, he said. Now, its like, I have no way to take care of this. I need service; I need you to come and take care of it.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt.

A lip liner is an absolute must for the woman who wants a more defined, polished lip or for those who may be concerned with feathering or bleeding of their lip color.
The delicate lip area is prone to excessive moisture loss and as lips age, they become thinner and fine lines and wrinkles become more obvious on and around the lips. Mary Kay® cutting-edge Lip Liners do more than provide natural color definition, they have additional skin care benefits such as age-fighting ingredients that help protect lips and help them appear smooth while creating a perfectly polished look. The neutral shades are similar to the natural tones of the lip so the liners blend in with lips and coordinate with Mary Kay® Creme Lipsticks and Mary Kay® NouriShine Plus™ Lip Glosses. No more guessing which liner shade matches your lipstick shade! In addition, the Clear Lip Liner is great for use with all shades and coverage levels of lip gloss and lipstick. A clear lip liner also is the perfect choice great for those who may not be as skilled with a shaded liner but still want to prevent feathering and bleeding of their lip colors.

New Orleans Hornets (22-42)
No more back-to-back games for Eric Gordon to protect his knees and they managed to beat the Blazers without him. (Photo by Layne Murdoch Jr./NBAE via Getty Images)
Minnesota Timberwolves (21-39)
The Twolves have the ability to bounce back with a high lottery draft and by taking the right player, but this season seems interminable with injuries and blow-out losses. (Photo by David Sherman/NBAE via Getty Images)
Sacramento Kings (22-42)
DeMarcus Cousins is playing well with 24 points and 12 rebounds, but he got tossed for an elbow to the head of Mike Dunleavy - that prompted Dunleavy to score 14 of his 16 points to lead the Bucks over the Kings. (Photo by Garrett Ellwood/NBAE via Getty Images)
