Brakes on a Ford dually F250, F350 or F450 are often worked much harder than brakes on a standard pickup. Most dually owners use the trucks for pulling fifth wheel trailers, loading the beds down with heavy payloads or pulling hitched trailers. All that extra weight means the brakes have to work harder in order to bring the rig to a halt safely. This also translates to more frequent brake repairs than the same driver would experience in a lighter-duty vehicle.
Things You'll Need
- Wheel chocks (4)
- Safety glasses
- Lug wrench
- Jack
- Jack stands
- Brake cleaner
- Drip pan
- Socket set
- White lithium grease
- Caliper piston tool (optional)
- Torque wrench (optional)
- Sandpaper (optional)
Put a wheel chock in the front and rear of both of the front tires so the truck can't roll away.
Put on your safety glasses and loosen the rear lug nuts, but do not take them off yet.
Jack the rear of the truck up then place a jack stand under the rear axle on either side.
Remove the lug nuts and set them aside, then pull the wheels off.
Put the drip pan under the brake assembly and then spray down the brake caliper and disc thoroughly with brake cleaner.
Use the socket wrench to remove the caliper bolts holding the brake caliper to the hub.
Slide the caliper up and away from the disc, then remove the pad retaining clip and pull the old pads out.
Remove the rotors and have them machined, or replace them at this time if at all possible. If neither option is available, take some sandpaper and score the rotor face in a circular motion to remove the sheen from the old pads.
Insert the new pads into the caliper and put the retaining clip back on in the reverse order of how you removed it. You may need to apply up to 100 foot-pounds of force to the caliper pistons to get them to retract far enough to put the new pads in. If you cannot get them back in, you will need to get a caliper piston tool to do the job.
Clean the caliper slides with brake cleaner and then apply white lithium grease to them. This ensures the caliper can slide in and out freely when you apply the brakes.
Slide the caliper back over the disc and reinstall the caliper bolts.
Put the wheels back on, being careful to put them on in the proper order so you do not have a dirty, dull inner wheel on the outside while your shiny clean one is on the inside. Reinstall the lug nuts and tighten.
Jack the back end off the jack stands, remove the stands and then lower the truck onto the ground.
Tighten the lug nuts on both sides with a torque wrench to the proper torque specifications based on your wheels and lug nuts. If you are uncertain what that specification is, call a local tire shop and they can tell you. If you do not have a torque wrench, drive to a tire shop or your local Ford dealer and have them torque the lugs nuts down for you immediately.

Where I stayed
Aunt Arlene's in Niagra-on-the-Lake, ON, Canada
This morning, the kids each took spa baths at Aunt Arlene's! I think they each spent an hour in the tub. Katrina follows Aunt Arlene around, talking her ears off! We didn't make it out of the house until noon! I got a load of laundry done & breakfast made. Whoowho.
We crossed back into New York and found our way to Aunt Mary (Gene's sister) and Uncle Dave's house in Silver Creek, about 30 miles south of Buffalo. We had a really nice time talking with them. They were disappointed in the weather because they had planned so much to do with us, but it was all outside. It was really too wet to be out! We went out to have pizza and Buffalo wings (they are better here!). They took us to an ice cream place that has 101 flavors of soft ice cream - yum
Back at their house, we saw a deer in their huge backyard! She picks all the apples off their tree. They have such a beautiful home secluded on 4 acers of grassy land, surrounded by trees! They were hoping to take us to the lake to go fishing, but at least we got to feed the ducks and geese at the lake nearby.
When we got back, Arlene showed us that the sparrows' eggs had hatched on her front porch! I couldn't get a decent picture of them...I'll try again tomorrow....
We are going to Niagra Falls on the American side in the morning. Then off to Aunt Pat's to go to Broadway Market for good Polish food....and a case Weber's mustard. I heard it comes in plastic bottles now. It might have a better chance at making it back to California!
Zenon (Arlene's son) is flying in from New York on Sunday morning! He was just traded from NHL team the Tampa Bay Lightning to the NY Islanders!!! We'll have a party here with his sisters, Celeste & Cynthia. Victoria was so excited when Arlene told her that Zenon's girlfriend is going to take them to ride her horse! And Arlene is going to take her to get a manicure one morning. A dream summer, I'm telling you....

The photography of Jimmy Nelson is striking and captivating; it conveys the remotest and most extraordinary lives and scenes in our world. Images of the Papua New Guinea Huli tribe are expertly conveyed through Nelson's lens, as is a range of other impressive images. We take a look at the remarkable work of this skilled photographer.
Exploring the traditions and cultures of unknown tribes through spectacular images, photographer Jimmy Nelson conveys a wholly unique range of people from the remotest parts of the world. His work shows the vibrant colours and representations of the Maori people, the Ladakhi, Kazakh, Himba and Dropka tribes in the unique environments that they inhabit.
The photographer spent his childhood years in Africa, Asia and South America, and after leaving school in the UK the foundations of his career were established after he trekked through Tibet and took images of his trip. He has subsequently been sought after to cover a range of topics, working as a photojournalist and shooting many different images of political import. He has exhibited works in Beijing and worldwide, and has two publications: 'Literary Portraits of China' and 'Before They Pass Away'. The latter of his publications features such tribes as the New Guinea, Tsaatan of Mongolia and the Mursi people of Ethiopia.
Nelson endeavored in 'Before They Pass Away' to convey 35 of the world's last cultures as icons and to learn lessons from such remote traditions. With the ambition to document such cultures and, essentially, the origins of where we come from, the photographer is keen to explore the lives of these people. Of major importance to Nelson is the documenting of such cultures before they alter; he fears that they will change, evolve and become more 'developed', and it is important to record such traditions before this happens. Establishing an open relationship between such remote cultures and the Western world is equally as significant to the photographer, as is a mutual understanding through which each can learn lessons from the other.
It is Nelson's lighting, mise en scene and shot selection that accurately represents these groups of people in his work, educating and informing viewers about the clothing, lifestyle and environments in which they live. Amidst the remote, mountainous terrain, for instance, we see a Kazakh trio on horseback, wearing thick clothing, accompanied by tamed birds of prey. Adorned with tribal jewellery and feathers we can also see in a separate image a Maori woman, expertly captured in a mid-shot. In another photograph, the footprints of the Himba tribe convey their even pace as they walk across the sand, dressed in authentic tribal clothing. This fine-art photography is absolutely stunning, and succinctly gives us insight into largely unexplored lives.
Through his photography we get the purity, authenticity and beauty of these groups of people, but we also learn lessons about the importance of looking closely at such works and abandoning prejudices. That the images are impressive is unquestionable; that they teach us about the featured tribes – as well as ourselves – is even more undeniable.
Jimmy Nelson's work will be exhibited at Heist's upcoming exhibition, 'Origins', on 5th March.

Recent reviews
Outstanding 4.6 /5 from 84 reviews
nice Hotel. staff are very good. stayed on golden circle lounge floor so drinks and breakfast were included. food in lounge was good as was it with all of the restaurants in hotel .room s are comfortable and well appointed.
I always stay here for trade shows because it is beside the exhibition center. The hotel looks great. The gym is the best in Asia. There are lots of restaurants and cafes in the Kerry Center beside the hotel. BUT, this time the rooms smelled terrible. I talked to several people at the hotel with the same problem. Don't know if this is temporary or what. Also, the in house dining quality is low - all style, no substance.
Very good hotel excellent staff, good restaurant , asked for a Indian breakfast , they made it no problem Complimentary Mini bar a nice touch .
The Kerry Hotel is situated in a perfect shopping mall area with everything you need with great facilities. The bathtub in the room is deep and large, and large and clean. The reception is very accommodating. The room was clean, but not as luxurious as I expected- the carpet had some stains and part of the ceiling was actually taped on, which I did not expect from a Shangri-la. Other than that it is an excellent spot and comfortable hotel.
Best hotel ever. Get the club room, you won't be disappointed! Includes breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks. Stayed for three nights and it felt like home with new family.

Mumbai, May 14: In a bid to check the flow of spurious liquor being smuggled into Maharashtra from other states, the government has decided to make it mandatory to have a hologram on every bottle of alcoholic beverage sold.
State Revenue Minister Eknath Khadse has set a revenue target of Rs 20,000 crore from excise duty on the sale of liquor in the state.
"Within the next one month, it will be mandatory for all liquor bottles to have a hologram stuck on it to ensure that spurious liquor flow into the state is stopped. Apart from loss of revenue, spurious liquor also causes health hazards, which needs to be checked," Khadse said.
[Will ban liquor if villagers ask for it: Maharashtra govt]
"In the last year, revenue generated from the sale of liquor was Rs 11,400 crore, which is third highest across revenue generating departments. For the coming year, the target set excise duty collection from the sale of liquor is Rs 20,000 crore," he said on the occasion of the disbursement of new vehicles to department.
He added that to further strengthen the excise department, officials of the department have been provided with 44 new vehicles (for departmental purposes) and an additional 50 vehicles would be provided next year.
"To achieve our aim of generating Rs 20,000 crore from excise duty on liquor, officials will need to do a lot of hardwork. We have to ensure that illegitimate liquor flow is stopped and all vacant posts in the department are filled," Khadse said.

"So you have to at least pretend that you can dance." he continued, his eyes back to their usual sharpness.
I sighed internally, but I managed to regain my composure by focusing on just how much his stuck-up attitude bothered me.
"Fine." I replied, my jaw set, "Let's do it again."
That time I let my determination to succeed control me. I'd come too far to let something like being shown up stop me.
My steps were clean, my footing sure and my turns precise. When I reached the end of what I had been taught Raphael gave me a small applause.
"Much better." he said, "There's just one thing."
I groaned.
"Have some fun with it." he said, "Don't just make it technical; make it natural."
Oh, so now he was telling me to be natural. The sandwich ninja with a ferrari and a candlestick was telling me to be natural.
"Whatever you say, sunshine." I muttered, finding my water bottle and taking a swig.
"One more time." he clapped, looking at me expectantly.
My foot started throbbing right on cue.
"Come on," I whined, "We went over it a hundred times."
"A hundred and one makes all the difference." he assured, "Now, quickly!"
I walked over, scowling and started to go through the steps again. It was mid-spin that I had to stop, wincing as my foot sent pain rippling up my leg.
"Shit!" I hissed, turning and hopping towards my bag.
Sutton could say nothing to convince me to stay a second longer. If I sprained something my life was over.
"Wait, Abromovich, let me get a look at that foot!"
I paused in my escape, long enough to get myself herded onto a bench along the wall.
Raphael knelt down, taking my foot in his hands and inspecting it. I felt strangely self-conscious, wondering if the deep purple nailpolish really had been too daring.
After a couple moments he put pressure on a point somewhere in the middle of my sole, giving me a sudden sharp pain.
I cursed but soon afterwards I felt a warm relief spread in my leg.
Sutton let me test my foot and I found it to be good as new.
"How'd you do that?" I asked, wondering why I hadn't learned the technique.
"It's a secret." he said seriously, standing, "Handed down to me by a long line of Tibetan monks."
"Very funny." I replied, narrowing my eyes.
He offered me a hand and I took it, pulling myself to my feet.
"Think about it," he explained, "If I told you everything I knew you wouldn't need me at all. It would only be a matter of time before I was out of a job."
I realized awkwardly that my hand was still in his and pulled away, clearing my throat.
"You could probably retire now, couldn't you?" I asked, doing my best to hide my mortification.
"I could." he shrugged, "But I don't want to. How many people can get a sandwich thrown at them every day?"
"Hey! That was once!" I insisted, getting just a sliver of a smile out of him.
"It feels like it was just yesterday," he said in mock nostalgia, "Oh wait, that's because it was!"
"I'll throw soup at you next." I replied, laughing and getting my things, "You have any preferences?"
"Just be here on time." he called, getting me to roll my eyes.
What a bother.

Very Cheap Basketball Monthly Club - December
For this club, we are looking at like 1-6 boxes ($250-$300 range total) to break each month.
[B]Please send Paypal payments to: [email]firstname.lastname@example.com[/email] *PLEASE ONLY PUT USERNAME!*[/B]
Each month, I will randomize each members name on random.org and whomever is at the top of the list will get to choose which boxes ($250-$300 total range) that they want the group to bust for the month.
I am looking for a 6 month commitment from each member. If we are all filled up with members, I will start up a "backup list" for those wanting to join. If a member wants to leave before the 6 month commitment ends, they can have someone from the backup list take their spot. However, if a member leaves before the 6 month commitment is up, I will enforce a 6 month period before they can try to rejoin the club.
Teams will get randomized by a Mod each month.
All breaks will be done live on blogtv.
**If you happen to not get anything good or anything at all in a given month for the team you got assigned to you, I will allow the option to have free shipping charges for the next month's break by combining the cards from the 2 months together and send them out all at once.**
*This month, Kingbudd got to select the boxes and chose the following:
[B]2012/13 Panini Prizm Basketball Hobby Box $100
2012/13 Panini Totally Certified Basketball Hobby Box $120
2011/12 Panini Limited Basketball Hobby Box - $75
Total: $ 295
$295/30 = $9.84
Shipping = $3.50
Paypal Fees = $0.69
$14.03 a spot for those who received cards last month in the mail or who are new members to the club
($24.32 a spot for those joining the card vault as well)

If you are in any type of business you know how important it is to set goals. Conquering them can be difficult, especially if you don't know anything about setting goals, let alone how to execute them.
Tip #1: Design a plan of attack
I like to think of goal as a Rubik's cube. Sometimes you just need to step back and think about how to solve it, rather than turning it every which way. Designing a plan of a attack is the key to accomplishing any goal. Think about what you must accomplish before you reach your ultimate goal. For example, let's say you're a commercial real estate owner and your long term goal is to increase traffic to your new shopping center by 50% in the year 2012. You may start out by setting a monthly goal that will ultimately help you get one step closer to achieving that ultimate goal. Let's say you decide to increase advertising. You figure that if you want to increase traffic to your shopping center you need to start by increasing advertising. So your goal for that month might be to hire an advertising agency to help promote your shopping center.
Tip #2: Setting plateau's of success
Goals should be challenging, That why it's important to set what I like to call, "plateau's of success" or "mini-goals". When you are setting your goals, just try to keep in mind what your long term goals are and work your mini-goals around that. setting your goals every month will help you stay motivated and remind you of what your long term goals are. Build a list of mini-goals that lead you to your ultimate goal. You may find that you have to set fifty mini-goals before you reach your ultimate goal. Every time, you complete one of your mini-goals you should cross it off your list. Crossing a goal off your list will give you more confidence and motivation to achieve that ultimate goal.
Tip #3: Stay Positive.
Sometimes the most important aspect of achieving your goals is staying positive. If for some reason you fail to complete a task or you come up just short of your monthly goal, you need to be able to stay positive and still believe that you are capable of conquering what you set out to do. Overcoming obstacles is just one aspect of achieving your goals. One way of staying positive is visualizing yourself achieving your final goal. It helps to close your eyes for a few minutes and think about how good it will feel to accomplish your ultimate goal. Imagine yourself conquering your goal after overcoming difficult obstacles and try to think about what it would feel like once you accomplish this feat.
Accomplishing your goals can be easy. Breaking up your goals into multiple parts can be one of the best ways of conquering them. It's also important to keep in mind that obstacles will arise and it's up to you to handle them to the best of your ability.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - August 22, 1997, New Braunfels, Texas 2A □ Herald-Zeitong □ Friday, August 22,1997County From Page 1 agree with Dawson's idea to take additional funds from the fund reserve. He said those funds were for emergencies, and he would rather add the positions later in the year when the court had a better idea of what the county's income would be. "I don't like to roll dice, particularly when it's with taxpayers' money," he said. "I like to know w hat I have in the bank and what I will have in the bank at the end of the year." The approved budget includes a 3 percent cost of living and a 4 percent njerit raise for employees. Department heads and elected officials would receive 5 percent pay increases. ;Two key cuts in budget requests were for the sheriff's office and the criminal district attorney's office. The sheriff requested IO additional patrol deputies, but only five were included in the proposed budget. ; The district attorney asked that a new position be created to replace theRodriguez prom Page 1 county attorney position, which becomes defunct when the county and district attorney offices merge beginning Sept I. Two residents spoke to commissioners during the morning session about the budget. Resident S. A. Swenson questioned why the county needed to be in the business of owning parks. The budget calls for $60,000 for the purchase of land in the Solms area for the county's third parte. Swenson said the money could be better spent in other areas. ''Rather than spending $60,000 on a park, I'd rather see two more deputies," he told the court. Commissioners responded by saying the parks were wanted by many residents. They also pointed out that lease agreements had been established with various organizations, and the county was not paying for the development of the land. Scheel said he supported spending money on the "good kids" because the county already spends a large amount of money on "bad "kids" through the probation office. "I think the more we keep these kids involved in sports and related activities, the better off we'll be in the long run," Scheel said. Swenson said he did not support percentage pay raises because everyone gets a different amount. He said all employees and elected officials should get the same amount. He said the mileage allowances also seemed excessive. Tony Trungale, who volunteers in the district attorney's office, asked the court to explain why the chief misdemeanor prosecutor position, which would have replaced the county attorney position, was cut from the budget. He predicted the decision would lead to a backlog in the docket and less efficiency int he office. County Judge Carter Casteel said the cut was made because promised savings were not evident in the budget request. She said the district attorney could return to the court and ask for another position later in the year if cases get too back logged. "The bottom line for me is promises made, promises kept," Casteel said. Scheel said he did not agree with cutting the position. He said the office needed the extra staff if it would be expected to maintain the work load. "With more cases being filed this year than last year, I don't think it's fair to ask Mr. (D.A. Dib) Waldrip to perform under those conditions," he said. Scheel was one of two commissioners voting against denying Waldrip the position a few weeks ago. He voted in favor of the recommended budget for the office on Thursday. Commissioner Cristina Zamora also voted against the original denial, but voted in favor of the office's budget. She said she still did not agree with it, but the issue was settled with the first vote, and she wanted to show her support of the budget. "I did want to vote for the budget because it's good except for that," she said. • The transition from a 10-year career in the state legislature to Congress has been tricky, Rodriguez skid. > He was appointed to serve on the National Security Committee and the Veterans' Affairs Committee but still has been seen as a freshman, he said. • "Of the 434 congressmen, there's only one with less seniority than I," he said. "When they ask me to speak. I'm the last one they get to." The forum lasted for more than one hour and covered a range of topics. Asked whether he would favor U.S. troops guarding the Texas border, he responded, "No." It was an issue he said he always objected to and instead supported more border patrol officers whoPool From Page 1 report said a new indoor swimming pool would cost $4.5 million with an annual debt service of $370,000. The report cites the example of San Antonio and the Alamo Community College District, which share the cost and use of the pool at Palo Alto Community College. Casteel said if the city of New Braunfels and the two school districts jumped on the indoor swimming pool bandwagon, she could see the county helping to pay for it. Casteel said the county could float a Kind issue to help pay for a pool. She suggested forming a board with representatives from all interested parties. Casteel said in that scenario, the county could help pay off the debt, while the city of New Braunfels and the two school districts could split the cost of operating the facility. "We all need to be partners in it," she said. No one at the meeting spoke in opposition against the indoor pool. After the meeting, Casteel said residents would give the final nod to building an indoor pool. "We have to get into the county and see if the citizens want it," she said. Commissioners approved a mortem appointing Commissioner Danny Scheel to look for a pool site if the project becomes a reality. could become more in touch with the people in the region. "What we need is well-trained people to be able to look out for terrorism," he said. "We need bright people to seek them out." He told the group that he was concerned about the future of Social Security that is scheduled to ran out of money by 2012. "We're going to have a problem with social security. A lot of people don't have pensions," he said. A union member from San Antonio asked him what he thought the impact would be of possible federal deregulation of the electricity industry. Rodriguez told him he was concerned that residential customers would have to pay higher rates as a result of the large companies switching service to,providers outside the current utility districts.Be the 'Power of U' The United Way of Comal County will have its "kick-off" reception at 5:30 p.m. Sept. 4 at the Tree Tops Restaurant.

The United Way volunteers urge every citizen in Comal County to be the" Power of U"andnSke a pledge during the 1997 drive. (Submitted by United Way of Comal County) AUSTIN (AP) — Lt. Gov. Bob Bullock, who fought to have the Texas State Cemetery restored, is now trying to preserve an historic mansion put up for sale by the University of Texas. At the urging of Bullock, the five-member State Preservation Board voted Wednesday to see whether the state has property it could give to UT in exchange for the Pease Manson in west Austin. The family of Texas* fourth governor, Elisha M. Pease, owned the home, named Woodlawn, for IOO years until 1957. UT received the home as a gift from ex-Gov. Allan Shivers and wife Marialice Shivers. They bought the home in 1957. The former governor died in 1985. Marialice Shivers lived there until she died in September. The pink and white mansion on 3.8 acres includes an 11,441-square-foot main house, separate guest quarters, a four-car garage and a swimming pool. "1 think it's very important that we Correction A Stammtisch entry on Page 6A of Wednesday's Herald-Zeitung incorrectly listed the date of the Comal County Sheriff's Posse Rodeo. The Comal County Sheriffs Posse Rodeo will be Sept. 13. keep that in the hands of our state government," said Bullock, who envisioned the mansion as a place for official receptions and other state functions. The Preservation Board's membership includes Bullock, Gov. George W. Bush and Speaker Pete Laney. The university plans to begin accepting sealed bids for the mansion, with a minimum of $2.6 million, on Oct. 6. Texas officials are now searching the state's property rolls to determine if there is land available to exchange for the mansion. If a swap were to be offered, UT officials said they would be interested in acquiring only state property that could be sold. Proceeds from the sale of the mansion are earmarked for endowed chairs at the UT Law School and UT-Pan American in Edinburg. NB ME Bridging the Gap...

Why have the early years of the 21st century seen increasing use of emergency-type powers or claims of supra-legal executive authority, particularly by the Western countries regarded as the world's leading democracies, notably the United States?
This book examines the extraordinary range of executive and prerogative powers, emergency legislation, martial law provisos and indemnities in countries with English-derived legal systems, primarily the UK, the US and Australia. The author challenges attempts by legal and academic theorists to relativise, rationalise, legitimise or propose supposedly safe limits for the use of emergency powers, especially since the September 2001 terrorist attacks.
This volume also considers why the reputation of Carl Schmitt, the best-known champion of 'exceptional' dictatorial powers during the post-1919 Weimer Republic in Germany, and who later enthusiastically served and sanctified the Nazi dictatorship, is being rehabilitated, and examines why his totalitarian doctrines are thought to be of relevance to modern society. This diverse book will be of importance to politicians, the media, the legal profession, as well as academics and students of law, humanities and politics.

Defensive back Jonathan Nelson brings exactly that to the table, and he's proven it throughout fall camp.
The 5-foot-11, 188 lb. senior has been working at both the corner and safety positions, and in the latest updated depth chart, he's listed as the starting strong safety.
But he said the specific position doesn't really matter as long as he's contributing.
"I mean, I like playing defensive back, so I'm not really worried about a corner or a safety or, you know, whichever specifically position I'm playing," Nelson said. "You know, it's just a more so whatever the coaches want me to play at whatever given time and whichever situation, and, you know, I'm just trying to help out like whichever way possible."
And right now he's definitely doing that in preseason practice by flipping back and forth between corner and safety.
"Yeah, it's been about half and half, just flip flopping just wherever they want me at one time," Nelson said. "You know, Coach [Bob] Stoops halfway through practice will tell me to go to corner, and then [defensive backs] coach [Willie] Martinez halfway through practice will tell me to go to safety, and then Coach [Venables], and it's just whatever the case may be at the time."
It takes a unique player to be able to rotate between the two, but Nelson said it's not anything that's really too mentally challenging.
"Well, you know, like this being my fifth year, I've sat through so many meetings of coaches talking to this guy and that guy when I'm not at that position," Nelson said. "By now it's not just a huge mental challenge. It's more so worrying about, 'Okay, at this position, I have to worry about my technique here. When I'm safety, I have to make sure that I get my dip in this certain coverage. When I'm at corner, I have to make sure that my backfield is this and that.' It's more so technique than it is mental."
And if anyone can pick it all up, it's Nelson, who has battled through things during his career.
"I mean as much adversity as I've been [through] with injuries and just this and that on the field, just whatever the case may be, just finally being able to contribute, show that you can go from like as deep down in the doghouse as I was to actually being able to help the team out [is rewarding]," Nelson said.
That's something he can model to the younger defensive backs and others on the team.
"Oh yeah, you know, I've told guys, unnamed guys, like throughout the years like, 'Hey, just stick in there. Don't like [give up],'" Nelson said. "Like whenever a guy may get his head down, I'm saying stick in there because, you know, if I did it then you can do it."
So as the Sooners head into this fall, Nelson's versatility should give them a huge leg up in the secondary.

Café Manna, the vegetarian restaurant in Brookfield, just got greener.
It has met the non-profit Green Restaurant Association's standards and become a green-certified restaurant, the only one in the state.
Owner Robin Kasch, whose restaurant opened in February in Sendik's Towne Centre, 3815 N. Brookfield Road, said being environmentally friendly was a natural outgrowth of its menu. "We couldn't say we were healthy on one level and not be on the other," she said.
To become certified, Café Manna had to demonstrate it recycles all waste that's accepted locally; be free of polystyrene foam; commit to accomplishing four environmental steps every year; and complete four or more environmental steps after joining the association.
This year, Café Manna's four steps were to compost waste from food preparation, such as vegetable peels; install water-efficient faucets in the kitchen and energy-efficient strips for the walk-in cooler; and recycle waste such as paper and glass.
At least about 80% of the restaurant's food is organic, Kasch said, and Café Manna buys a portion of its produce from local farmers.
As part of its eco-friendly commitment, Café Manna uses only biodegradable carryout containers. For example, the bags are made of corn, and utensils are made of potato or other vegetable protein.
Also, the restaurant's counters are made of PaperStone, a recycled product, and its bathroom sinks are made of recycled glass.
Capone's Grotto & Little Italy Olive Oil Co. has opened, and it's serving late at 1003 N. Old World 3rd St.; (414) 224-6000. The restaurant plans to expand its menu later, but it has appetizers, sandwiches such as a chicken parmigiana, entrées including lasagna and pizza, and cannoli and tiramisu for dessert.
Hours are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday; 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday to Wednesday; 11 a.m. to midnight Thursday; and on Friday and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 1:30 a.m. The bar is open later.
The newly opened Berkeley's Café in Whitefish Bay has added breakfast and lunch service.
Breakfast items at the casual café include egg strata with artichoke and goat cheese ($7.95) and sour-cherry crepe ($7.95). Lunch offers soups, sandwiches and salads, including whitefish corn chowder ($3.95 and $4.95) and a BLT with blue cheese and avocado ($9.95).
The dinner menu includes the lunch lineup and adds entrées such as roasted pork loin with sage polenta and butter-poached green beans ($18.75).
Berkeley's Café is at 342 E. Silver Spring Drive; (414) 897-8624.
The planned Milwaukee Hotel Palomar and Residences in the Park East area has lured a celebrity chef for its restaurant and lobby bar.
Michael Symon, the winner of the Food Network's "The Next Iron Chef" in 2007 and the new host of the cable network's "Dinner: Impossible," owns Lola and Lolita in Cleveland. Last month, he opened Roast in Detroit. Noted for his Greek- and Eastern European-influenced dishes, Symon was one of 10 best new chefs named by Food & Wine magazine in 1998.
Dallas-based Gatehouse Capital Corp.'s high-rise hotel project, planned for N. Old World 3rd St. and W. Juneau Ave., has been delayed about a year because of the state of the credit markets.

Saunders starts retooling Wolves scouting staff
MINNEAPOLIS — Flip Saunders has started the restructuring expected when he took over as Minnesota Timberwolves president last week.
Saunders fired international scouting coordinator Pete Philo, regional scout Curtis Crawford and Will Conroy on Tuesday. The moves were made as Saunders clears room to get a staff together for next month's draft.
Philo was instrumental in ushering in a new focus on foreign players. He helped land point guard Ricky Rubio, guard Alexey Shved and put the Timberwolves at the forefront of that growing trend. He also played a key role on draft night.

CONCORD, N.C. Dale Earnhardt Jr. rallied from a lap down
to get back in the top 10, then crashed himself and teammate
Michael Waltrip with a crucial mistake Sunday night.
Earnhardt Jr.
As the two raced down the frontstretch in the Coca-Cola 600,
Junior tapped Waltrip from behind, triggering a five-car wreck that
took him, Waltrip, Matt Kenseth and Terry Labonte out of
contention. Labonte, a two-time Nextel Cup champ, was taken to the
hospital for observation, but the track reported that he was awake
and alert.
Ryan Newman also was involved, but his crew repaired his Dodge
and he was able to continue.
"I don't know what happened," Waltrip said in measured tones.
"I'm trying to figure it out. I was running with the 8 car and I
think he got into me."
Tony Eury Sr., director of competition at Dale Earnhardt Inc.,
was Earnhardt's crew chief until this season, and he tried in vain
to control his frustration with watching two of his cars taken out
in the same wreck.
"I don't know what his problem is with Michael, but it will be
fixed tomorrow, I guarantee it," Eury said.
Kenseth blamed the incident partly on the racing conditions.
With the newly ground track providing a challenge to the drivers
for most over the weekend, passing was extremely difficult.
"I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time," Kenseth
said. "It's impossible to pass. I mean, unless a miracle happens,
the fastest car won't win the race. Wherever you are, that's where
you'd run."
Earnhardt returned less than 20 laps later after repairs, while
the others except for Newman were done for the night.
And DEI wasn't the only team to lose two cars in the same crash.
Sterling Marlin and Casey Mears, teammates at Chip Ganassi Racing,
slammed together in Turn 2 on lap 217, with Marlin relegated to
39th because he couldn't continue.
Martin Truex Jr., driving the third Chevrolet for DEI, was
responsible for starting this incident, sliding up into Mears and
forcing him into a spin. As Marlin tried to go to the bottom of the
track, Mears slid down and knocked Marlin into the wall.
On his pit box, team owner Chip Ganassi could only hold his head
in his hands.
"Martin Truex just tried to throw it in too hard," Mears said.
"He got a two-for-one deal because he got Sterling, too. I'm OK,
but I'm a little upset because it was so stupid. I don't understand
when something like that happens."
Truex was able to drive away.
Then in the final 20 laps, Brian Vickers bumped Bill Elliott
from behind eerily similar to the Earnhardt-Waltrip incident and started another big wreck on the frontstretch. Jeff Gordon,
Vickers' teammate at Hendrick Motorsports, couldn't avoid the
melee, and neither could Mark Martin.
"Brian Vickers had the best car, but unfortunately, he ran out
of patience a little bit there," Gordon said. "He's my teammate,
I love him to death and he's doing such a great job. I hate it for
him, I know he didn't want it to end that way."
Gordon made a couple of more laps before pulling into the
garage, and he finished one spot ahead of Vickers in 29th. Martin
got back on the track after losing one lap and was running at the
finish for the 34th consecutive race, the longest streak on the
"I messed up and I got impatient," Vickers said. "That was my
fault. I messed up. We had an awesome car, we had a car to win. I
messed up there, and I'm sorry."
Busch's woes continue
Kurt Busch's chance to snap a two-race
slump ended early in the Coca-Cola 600.
The defending Nextel Cup champ spun in Turn 2 on the ninth lap
Sunday night and backed into the wall, then took his Ford to the
garage. He wasn't sure what happened, but speculated that fluid
leaking from another car might have been a factor.
Television replays from Sterling Marlin's in-car camera he was
trailing Busch showed something spraying the lens.
"It just snapped around on me real quick," Busch said. "I
don't know if there was fluid on the track or not. There was a
bunch on the windshield and it just came around. Obviously, I was
in no hurry. It's 600 miles."
Finishes of 37th and 17th the past two weeks dropped him from
second to fifth in the standings, and Busch qualified 35th for the
600. He hardly had time to figure out how his Ford was going to run
before he crashed.
Because the NASCAR point system rewards consistency, teams
normally fix their torn up cars and make as many laps as possible,
figuring even one position gained is worth it. But Busch wasn't
looking forward to being well off the pace and possibly being in
the way.
"That's one thing we need to work on with this point system is
when you're back 36th or worse in the finishing order, there's no
reason to go and take a damaged car back out there and be 4 seconds
off the pace," he said. "It's going to be tough to get back out
and be competitive, and we're going to finish in the 40s
He eventually returned after losing 133 laps and had more
trouble, crashing again in Turn 1 to finally end his night. Busch
finished last.
Birthday wishes
Ken Schrader had quite a 50th birthday.
First, his crew surprised him with a homemade "wheelchair"
after the drivers' meeting, fastening two pieces of a used tire
around a plastic chair. Schrader walked up just as truck driver
Jeff Miles lowered the back liftgate to unveil the present, and he
momentarily stopped and stared.
A fan yelled for Schrader to sit down in it, but that was going
to happen.
"No!" he shouted with a big smile.
Car owner Beth Ann Morgenthau gave Schrader a big hug, and
balloons and a sign wishing him a happy birthday adorned the chair.
"For me, it's really just another day," Schrader said. "It's
a milestone I can't do anything about, and I don't think it's the
kind of thing you want to miss. You know, the old, 'Oh, man, hate
that happened the day before he turned 50,' and everybody talks
about you in the past tense."
Later, he got an even better present when he led for the fourth
time this season. Schrader was one of several drivers who stayed
out during a caution for debris on lap 115, and he stayed out front
briefly when the field took the green.
It didn't last, as 48-year-old Terry Labonte moved into the
lead, the first race he's led during his part-time schedule this
Picture perfect
The gifts just keep coming for retiring drivers Rusty Wallace and Mark Martin.
At the drivers' meeting, Lowe's Motor Speedway president Humpy
Wheeler saluted them with framed photos of the trips to Victory
Lane in the Coca-Cola 600. Martin won in 2002, and Wallace came
home first in 1990.
"This is the last Coca-Cola 600 for two great drivers, and we
have something that we want to commemorate this day with, since
both of you can't win," Wheeler said.
He particularly liked the picture of Martin, calling it one of
the best he's ever seen. Martin agreed.
"I look pretty happy right there," Martin said.
First waves green
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist waved
the green at the start, then spent about 30 laps watching from the
A native of Tennessee, he has been to several races, although
this was his first time at the track just north of Charlotte. Frist
spent time with Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kurt Busch while in town,
and praised NASCAR for its commitment to families.
"We do follow NASCAR on Capitol Hill," Frist said. "Right
now, because of the intensity of the competition, because of the
appeal with the broadest range of people of any sport in America
today, because of those values of America and American spirit are
so prominently on display, I'll bet that NASCAR is the No. 1 most
followed sport by political figures today on Capitol Hill."
He also enjoyed his time away from Washington, where the Senate
worked hard in the past several days for a compromise on President
Bush's judicial nominees.
"Tonight, we'll be seeing 43 drivers and cars going round and
round and round for 600 miles to get to a finish," Frist said.
"In Washington, D.C., I see too many politicians, many of my
colleagues, going round and round and round to get to nowhere."
Frist also drew some chuckles in a brief interview session with
reporters when he referred to Tennessee's lone Cup driver as
Sterling Martin, instead of Marlin.

OK, i have had my car a year now and havent done much too it. it's a case of not actually getting to do it and not knowing what to do. I have just replaced all the ICE in my car to Pioneer Stereo/Speakers.
I have also had a custom made ''Powerflow'' Exhaust fitted which sounds amazing, nothing too loud, just a nice low grumble with a great pitch as you go up through the revs.
But i need to do more to the engine to increase performance and sound. money isn't too much of an issue, however im not looking to spend more than what the car cost me! I've been reading about forced air intakes and turbos etc, but really need some advice!
once this is done, it also needs a nice new paint job as a lot of the panels have slight scratches.
so, what do you guys think? what are good upgrades and wheres the best place to buy.
Any suggestions would be great!

15 Moments That Made The Sopranos The Greatest Show Of All Time
The hits, the therapy, the night in the woods – the best reasons to celebrate Chase's masterpiece
In the summer of 1999, an American mafia drama called The Sopranos aired for the first time in the UK. It's only now, 15 years later, that's we're able to assess the impact it has had on our cultural landscape, this TV show that changed TV for the better.
Obviously, it paved the way for Walter White, Don Draper, Stringer Bell and all the other flawed examples of masculinity we now expect as standard from our heavy hitting TV dramas. Before Tony Soprano, leading male characters on the small screen were fantasies: brave policemen, perfect Fathers, men whose actions and morals fitted neatly into cosy story arcs that repeated, week in week out.
The Sopranos changed that forever. It made TV grow up. David Chase and HBO proved audiences in their living room were far smarter than they'd ever been given credit for, and ever since, studios have upped their game, writers have stopped seeing TV as a stepping-stone to cinema, and Hollywood's most ambitious actors have fallen over themselves to find a small screen role as profound, challenging and as loved as Tony Soprano.
But let's not forget one thing. Aside from transforming the TV landscape, what James Gandolfini, David Chase and everyone else involved in the show left behind was six seasons of drama that gets better every time you watch it, from the dated but still brilliant first series to the daring, artistic flourishes of the last, The Sopranos remains the most absorbing, funny, shake-your-head brilliant show ever made.
Here, to mark its 15th anniversary in the UK, we round up the 15 moments that made The Sopranos what it was. There are spoilers, of course, but if you still haven't seen it after all this time, we have to ask: uff marone, what the hell are you waiting for?!
The first major death in The Sopranos came at the end of season 2, when Sal "Big Pussy" Bonpensiero was ousted as a rat and murdered aboard Tony's boat. It's a queasy scene (and not just because of Tony's food poisioning), as the guys come to terms with having to kill their best friend. Pussy's death reverberated throughout the rest of show, and made the important point that on Chase's watch, no character is safe.
In a bid to reassert his authority after being left weak from a near-fatal shooting, Tony provokes his new bodyguard – a body builder with a hot temper called Perry Annunziata – into a fist fight in front of the crew. Tony comes out of top, breaking the younger man's nose before retreating to the privacy of the bathroom, where he duly vomits blood. The smile on Tony's face as he looks in the mirror is priceless: in a world where violence rules and appearance is everything, the old lion had proved he still has what it takes.
One of the most controversial and hardest to watch scenes in the entire show came when Ralphie Cifaretto beat a young woman he'd been dating to death at the back of the Bing. It is, however, a heartening and revealing moment when an appalled Tony breaks with mafia protocol and reacts by giving Ralphie a beating of his own. A crucial scene in calibrating Tony's morality, it also marks the end of Tracee, a minor character viewers took into their hearts during her few episodes.
The Sopranos was rarely on better comedic form than when the 'old school' world of the cosa nostra clashed with the touchy-feely new world of New York liberalism. The group intervention over Chrissie's heroin problem – one of the rare scenes to include eight regular cast members at the same time – is a perfect example, with Paulie and Silvo's idea of 'compassionate sharing' a particular highlight.
'College' was a hugely significant episode from the show's debut season, mainly for this scene. While taking his daughter Meadow on a tour of potential schools, Tony stumbles upon a former rat and decides to take revenge (literally) into his own hands by strangling him to death. It was the first time audiences glimpsed the depths to which Chase was prepared to allow his anti-hero to plunge. HBO was nervous the scene would prove too much and ratings would suffer. They didn't. Note also Tony's glance upwards at the end of the scene at some flying ducks, a symbol of his family – this was the first episode where his 'two worlds' came dangerously close to colliding.
There are few more formidable characters in the entire of The Sopranos than the newly released from jail and resolutely 'old school' Richie Aprile. A constant menace, he nevertheless meets his match when he punches his fiancé (and Tony's sister) Janice, who promptly responds by putting a bullet in his chest. One problem solved for Tony, and a reminder that it's not just the men in the Soprano family with the killer instinct.
"I'd like to propose a toast. To my family. Some day soon, you're going to have families of your own, and if you're lucky, you'll remember the little moments, like this… that were good."
Tony Soprano is not much of philosopher, but he has his moments. This scene in which he, Carmela, Meadow and Anthony Junior take refuge in Vesuvio's after being caught in a storm at the end of the show's first season is one of them. His words are echoed later, first by Meadow in the wake of Jackie Junior's death and then by AJ, during the show's finale. It's also a good summation of the epiphany Tony has after coming out his coma in season 6. In other words, David Chase knew what he was doing all along and planted the seeds from the very start, the crafty so-and-so.
Adriana La Cerva was only ever meant to be a minor Sopranos character, but so impressive was Drea de Matteo as Christopher's spirited but naïve girlfriend, they gave her the biggest storyline of season 5 when she was turned into a reluctant FBI informant. Fans had seen her death coming the second she was 'flipped', of course, but it didn't make watching her scurry into the woods on all fours – with a menacing Silvo taking aim behind her – any less harrowing.
Picking a highlight from 'Pine Barrens' – the Steve Bucemsi-directed episode regularly voted Soprano fans' all time favourite – is futile. The entire 50 minutes is hilarious, from Paulie's wholly unnecessarily provocation of the Russian (which ultimately leads them to getting lost in the New Jersey woods) to the pair's delirious arguments (above). Actually, we can pick a highlight: watching Paulie's silver wings gradually deteriorate at the ordeal goes on. Get that man some Brylcream.
Anthony Junior's journey from goofy kid to deeply troubled adolescent is complete when he makes a typically botched attempt to kill himself in the Soprano family pool. Arriving home in the nick of time, Tony's running jump – in a full suit – to save his son is heartbreaking. But the scene (and much of the season) belongs to Robert Iler, who proves the producers were right to take a chance on him as a kid all those years ago.
James Gandolfini and Edie Falco took most of the plaudits for the acting in The Sopranos, but close behind them was Michael Imperioli whose own Emmy-winning highlight was this scene, when his girlfriend Adrianna reveals she has been working with the FBI. Bewilderment, fear and terrible violence pour out of him inside three virtuoso – and incredibly difficult to watch – minutes.
The Sopranos often made sublime use of music. In 'Isabella', a morose Tony buys a cartoon of orange juice (a nod to the Godfather) and walks to his car to the melodramatic sound of 'Tiny Tears' by Tindersticks. Seconds later an attempted hit on his life by two armed thugs begins, and the music abruptly stops. In a brilliantly orchestrated scene, Tony snaps out of his malaise and fights them off, before laughing at his brush with death. As he says later to Dr Melfi: "Talk about a jolt to the system. Try gettin' shot at … Well, i'll tell you somethin'. I didn't wanna die. Every fuckin' particle of my bein' was fightin' to live." An epiphany, Sopranos-style.
Doctor Melfi's psychiatry office is the setting for countless revelatory moments, primarily Tony's. But at the conclusion of episode 'Employee of the Month', the roles are reversed to devastating effect. After Mefli is the victim of a rape – by a man subsequently let free due to a police blunder – the doctor and patient meet for their usual session. Overcome with trauma and for once, not wearing her glasses, Melfi becomes overwhelmed and begins to cry, prompting a confused Tony to ask if he can do anything to help. With one word, Melfi knows she can have her attacker torn to pieces. The moment lingers unbearable. The audience wills her to say 'yes'. She says no – and the screen cuts abruptly to black.
In this scene, Chase is preserving two crucial elements of the show. First, that Melfi is its moral centre. She knows unleashing Tony will make her an accessory to his crimes, and unlike almost any other character in the show, prizes her integrity above her impulses and desires. Second, that the show will never gives us what we 'want', i.e. to see Melfi avenged. This principle is upheld, as we were to discover, throughout The Sopranos, right up to the show's final scene.
Let's clear one thing up from the start. If you didn't like the ending, you didn't like The Sopranos. Not really. Not enough. You might have thought the show was cool, and enjoyed the wise guy stuff, but if you watched the now famous black out as Tony and his family sat in a New Jersey café and thought, 'I've been robbed', then you really weren't paying attention.
For Chase to have ended the show in a hail of bullets with Tony's corpse on the floor – or for that matter, with Tony living some form of happy ever after – would have been a betrayal of everything The Sopranos stood for, a return to the very TV conventions it so boldly subverted in the first place. So no, you don't get to find out if Tony is dead, or merely living on in a state of paranoia. There is no easy resolution, no redemption, no lessons learned, because life isn't like that either.
The final scene of The Sopranos is, however, a gloriously cryptic piece of art, laden with possible symbols, clues and red herrings that have had people pouring over it for the past seven years, reading into them more or less whatever they wish. It's a fitting crown to a show that transformed TV into the dominant American art form of the century, and they'll be studying and arguing over it in classrooms for many years to come.
Of Tony's two families, it's the wise guys who offer viewers the most fun: the girls, the gambling, the guns. But for anyone properly invested in the show over its 86 episodes, the real emotional impact is in the scenes at home, with his other family. For true fans, what matters most to Tony is also what matters most to us.
At the heart of this were James Gandolfini and Edie Falco, two actors playing a married couple who were at once deeply in love and disintegrating over the usual things: money, secrets and – above all – infidelity. The fourth season of the show is sometimes thought of as the least eventful, but that's a misconception. The unraveling of the Sopranos marriage, the end of their decades of uneasy truce, is in many ways the most dramatic 'death' in the show.
In 'Whitecaps', the episode that won Gandolfini and Falco an Emmy a piece, Tony and Carmela go at it in a way only long-married couples can, hurling every spiteful thought and horrible home truth they can muster at each other like so many pots and pans. It's two of TV's greatest performers at the very peak of their powers, and it demonstrates precisely why The Sopranos transcended the thrills of the gangster genre to become something timeless and touching. You watch it, marvelling at the script and the peformances, all the while unable to believe for a second that these aren't real people, with real lives.
