The 10 Series – 10 Exciting Young Footballers to watch in Serie A in 2013
The top 10 most exciting young footballers to watch in Italy in 2013, rising stars breaking through in Serie A. Part of The 10 Series brought to you by Just-Football.com:
by Jack Rathborn
Stephan El Shaarawy
(AC Milan, 20 years old)
Born to Italian & Egyptian parents, the Milan forward was naturally given the pseudonym "Il Faraone" (The Pharaoh).
Having recently graduated to Cesare Prandelli's Azzurri, El Shaarawy – who enjoyed a sensational loan spell with Padova in Serie B – has adapted immediately to life in Serie A since his move from Genoa 18 months ago and is currently the league's top scorer in his brilliant breakthrough season.
The 20-year-old's most natural position is from a wide berth in a 4-3-3, but given Massimiliano Allegri's preferred formation is the diamond 4-4-2, El Shaarawy's opportunities in this role have been rare, until now.
After a summer of turmoil which included the departures of the club's two best players, Thiago Silva and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Milan's form spiralled to the point where the club were at one point closer to relegation than the title. This forced Allegri to experiment with alternatives tactics, including a 4-2-3-1, 4-3-3 and even a 3-4-3 in the 1-0 Champions League defeat to Malaga.
El Shaarawy has scored sixteen goals this season and they come in numerous forms. From long-range blockbusters (against Udinese) to slalom runs (against Zenit St. Petersburg) or predatory finishes inside the penalty area, Il Faraone has become Milan's next superstar.
Mattia De Sciglio
(AC Milan, 20 years old)
It all started in the summer when Paris Saint-Germain were tentatively linked to Ignazio Abate and although a deal failed to materialise, there was talk among various Milanistas that the €20 million valuation of the 25-year-old could be smart business.
Such a thought process was only logical when you consider the prodigious talent of Mattia De Sciglio was waiting to become a prominent member of the first team. The 20-year-old, who predominantly plays as a right back, can perform equally as well on the opposite flank.
Allegri has entrusted the Azzurrini international to feature regularly this term, often preferred to seasoned professionals such as Luca Antonini, Djamel Mesbah
De Sciglio is a balanced full-back who is capable of venturing forward when afforded the opportunity, but can ultimately be trusted to defend properly due to a canny ability to intercept the ball.
Lorenzo Insigne
(Napoli, 21 years old)
Eyebrows were raised in the summer when Ezequiel Lavezzi was allowed to depart for pastures new despite El Pocho being the heartbeat of a side that rose from Serie B to the Champions League in the space of four seasons.
Napoli's owner Aurelio De Laurentiis – a shrewd businessman outside of the world of football – appeased the fans by encouraging Walter Mazzarri to promote the exciting, young prospect of Lorenzo Insigne to the first team.
After impressing in a loan spell for Pescara – who claimed the Serie B title thanks, in part, to Insigne's inspired performances – the Neapolitan was always destined to break into the first team of his parent club.
Seen as a trequartista, capable of unhinging the most stringent of defences, Insigne is the next great hope for the Partenopei. Insigne is not the most typical Italian player you will find; perhaps only FrancescoTotti in recent memory can compare in style.
The player is deadly when allowed to run from deep, often dropping into wide areas to start moves. He possesses quick feet and tight control in order to dribble effortlessly past defenders, unselfishly involving his team mates with a series of one-twos.
Insigne's finishing will need to be worked on as the Azzurrini starlet is a more instinctive finisher than a penalty area predator, but he seems destined to become a key figure for the Partenopei soon.
Alessandro Florenzi
(AS Roma, 21 years old)
Roma opted to throw the baby out with the bath water again this summer after all hope was lost in the Luis Enrique project. Zdenek Zeman – who constructed such a splendid Pescara side last season – stepped in to replace the Spaniard in an attempt to reignite the Di Benedetto regime that has failed to inspire the Giallorossi thus far.
Zeman, a staunch supporter of developing young talent, has unearthed a gem in Alessandro Florenzi to become Roma's next home town hero after Francesco Totti and Daniele De Rossi.
Florenzi's impact has been so great that Cesare Prandelli even called him up to the Italy squad for the November friendly against France. At Under-21 level the 21-year-old is shining and helped the side to secure a place at the 2013 European Under-21 Championships in Israel, topping group seven with the Roman playing a pivotal role, scoring 3 times in 10 appearances.
Florenzi began the season as trade bait for Chievo's Michael Bradley, but Zeman insisted on keeping the youngster, instead sending Adrian Stoian in part-exchange for the US international. Initially a regular substitute, Florenzi was handed his first start away at Inter Milan, shining in a 3-1 victory and scoring a superb goal.
Florenzi's impact has been so unexpected – even though he showed glimpses of promise at Crotone in Serie B last season – that Roma were still paying him just €30,000 per year. Such maturity and discipline in midfield has forced the Giallorossi to hand the youngster a new €600,000 per year contract until 2016.
Given that Zeman has shown incredible faith in Florenzi, enough to leave Daniele De Rossi on the bench in some games, his future is tremendously exciting.
Roberto Pereyra
(Udinese, 21 years old)
Udinese have one of the most impressive scouting networks in world football, which has led the Zebrette to hold contracts with over 50 professionals.
Udinese's policy is always to buy low and sell high, which means that new stars emerge each season to replace those that established themselves enough to earn a big-money transfer the previous summer.
Roberto Pereyra was recruited from River Plate a year ago, without much fanfare in truth, as Erik Lamela sealed his move to Roma. The 21-year-old was not seen as one of La Banda's next world stars, but arrived with great excitement amongst the Udinese staff nonetheless.
Originally a wide player, it seemed that Pereyra would be a perfect fit in Francesco Guidolin's 3-5-2 formation. But Guidolin has opted to use the Argentine more centrally than in either wide role.
There has been a pattern in recent seasons whereby Guidolin has transformed wide players into central-midfielders; Mauricio Isla has proved to be the most successful player to adapt, but Pablo Armero and Dusan Basta
With a lovely balance and ability to dribble past opponents, both inside and outside, Pereyra has utilised these skills to good effect in his new position.
Udinese enjoy counter-attacking and Pereyra perfectly suits this tactic due to his tremendous drive and energy, making the Friulani such a potent threat in transition.
Giuseppe De Luca
(Atalanta, 21 years old)
De Luca has burst onto the scene at Atalanta this season as an extra attacking option after Gabbiadini was sold to Juventus, eventually joining Bologna on loan.
De Luca won himself a starting place for La Dea early in the season and the challenge for him is to become a regular next to German Denis when Guido Marilungo returns to full fitness.
His style is almost identical to Sebastian Giovinco, with added pace to be able to glide past defenders, as well as bamboozle them with quick feet and trickery.
The 21-year-old is only on loan from Varese, which might prove problematic next summer when Atalanta aim to finalise a permanent deal. More lively performances like those already witnessed, combined with increased exposure by his growing presence in Denis Mangia's under-21 side and Italy's biggest clubs will come calling in the near future.
Pedro Obiang
(Sampdoria, 20 years old)
Spain have dominated world football in recent years from their senior side down to the youth sides. With the competition higher than ever, it has forced certain players to move abroad in search of opportunities to develop their careers.
Pedro Obiang is a fine example of this. The Spaniard of Equatoguinean descent left Atletico Madrid four years ago to join Sampdoria as a 16-year-old.
Having now graduated from Samp's academy, he has become a crucial part of the first team – perhaps benefitting from the rebuilding phase last season in Serie B – contributing power and strength to the midfield.
An all-action centre-midfielder who is physically blessed with pace, power and strength – characteristics not normally associated with La Furia Roja in the modern game – this allows the 20-year-old to wrestle control of matches in Samp's favour.
Having represented Spain at under-17 and under-19 level, it will not be long before Obiang graduates to senior international football, either with Gabon, who have expressed an interest, or perhaps with Spain further down the line.
Ishak Belfodil
(Parma, 20 years old)
Ishak Belfodil's first action in Serie A came in the shape of sporadic substitute appearances for struggling Bologna last season, so it was a surprise when Parma, a side that narrowly missed out on qualifying for Europe, opted to swoop for the former Lyon striker.
The Crociati also signed veteran striker Amauri, along with one of the stars of last season's Copa Libertadores,
To the surprise of most, Belfodil seized a starting role as Amauri began the season injured and Pabon struggled to adapt to the league after his move from Atletico Nacional.
With an uncanny physical resemblance to Karim Benzema, Belfodil has shown glimpses that his game might not be too dissimilar to the Real Madrid star's either. The French under-20 striker enjoys working between the lines, drifting down the channels and darting in toward goal.
Only 20, Belfodil's finishing is often frustrating, with the Frenchman tending to snatch at his shots, but this is something that will develop with continued game time.
Perhaps his best quality right now is his ability to link the play, often holding the ball up, finding a team mate and dragging opponents out of position with his off-the-ball movement.
Juan Jesus
(Internazionale, 21 years old)
Andrea Stramaccioni has successfully introduced the 3-5-2 formation to Inter this season and Juan Jesus has been thrust into the limelight. In a surprising move, the young manager has opted to bench one of the summer's bigger recruits in former Catania centre-back Matias Silvestre, in favour of the young Brazilian.
Juan has been positioned on the left side of the back three, due to his previous experience at playing left-back for Internacional (Porto
The 21-year-old has vastly improved since being overwhelmed at the Olympics, struggling particularly against Mexico in the gold medal final – which prompted the Nerazzurri to consider loaning the defender out given his inexperience.
Ultimately Juan has proven this season that he is already primed to emulate his idol Lucio, successfully adapting to the European game after arriving from the Nação Vermelha. Potentially an outside chance of dislodging David Luiz as Thiago Silva's partner for Brazil at the next World Cup.
Mattia Perin
(Pescara, 20 years old)
Mattia Perin has been assigned the unenviable task of keeping goal for Pescara this season, where the Azzurrini international can expect to be kept busy for the Serie A newcomers.
Perin, on loan from Genoa, is a terrific shot stopper and is replicating the fine form that he produced in Serie B with Padova last season.
The 19-year-old has often been exposed by the Delfino defence, but his speed and anticipation to read the situation has been remarkable for such a young goalkeeper.
Having represented Italy at five separate age groups and finally tasting life in Serie A, Perin could be the Azzurri's best goalkeeping prospect to succeed Gianluigi Buffon down the line.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX may open higher, stimulus fears still weigh
June 12 (Reuters) - Canadian stocks looked set to open higher on Wednesday after the previous session's sell off, though gains could be capped by fears that major central banks might begin to wind down their monetary easing policies.
* MSCI, the most widely used equity index provider, prompted market fears about both Greece and Egypt, after demoting the former and then raising concerns about getting money out of the latter.
* Industrial output from euro zone factories defied market expectations of a month-on-month decline and rose in April, data showed, but the pace of expansion was slowed by a drop in production of energy and durable consumer goods.
* Vodafone said it had made an approach to buy Germany's biggest cable company Kabel Deutschland in what could be its largest deal since 2007 and mark a departure from its roots as a pure mobile operator.
* Oil sands developer Cenovus Energy Inc said on Tuesday that Surge Energy Inc will pay C$240 million for its properties in the Shaunavon tight oil field in Saskatchewan.
* Three of the largest U.S. Internet companies called on the U.S. government to provide greater transparency on national security requests on Tuesday, as they sought to distance themselves from reports that portrayed the companies as willing partners in supplying mass user data to security agencies.

Posted: 10:16 AM- WASHINGTON -- The federal agency charged with overseeing mine safety was negligent in protecting workers at the Crandall Canyon Mine, the Labor Department's own Inspector General says in a new report.
The Mine Safety and Health Agency also could not ensure that its approval of the mining plan at the Utah mine was free of undue influence by the mine's operator, Murray Energy, the Inspector General says in a report issued Monday.
MSHA responded to the report that the word "negligent" was misleading and expressed concern that the independent investigating arm of the Labor Department was implying its decisions were affected by undue influence.
But the Inspector General says its findings "remain unchanged."
The IG did not probe the cause of the disaster that claimed six miners -- still entombed some 1,900 feet in the mine -- and killed three would-be rescuers in August. The investigation is one of several ongoing into the tragedy, including a review by MSHA's accident team expected to be completed in the next few months.
Murray Energy did immediately respond to a request for comment.
A report recently published by the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee called for the Justice Department to launch a criminal probe into actions by Murray Energy surrounding the Crandall Canyon disaster. Murray Energy called that suggestion partisan grandstanding.

Fair enough. By the same token though, I am skeptical that you
believe that all programming should be done using the imperative
model. I'm all for abstraction, but am leery of a single conceptual

I would hazard that the rest of the Cocoon plumbing made that
infeasibly difficult. It's hard to know where the sitemap stops and
Cocoon starts (and what are EventPipelines anyways!?).

This is where my "pseduo-postmodern" instincts start to twitch. The
whole notion of a "best strategy" strikes me as being a little too
simplistic. I'm thinking back now to your RT on caching from so long
ago. As I understood your proposal, you were advocating a cache that
was in large part self-tuning. You also allowed for developers (and
users) to choose which optimization function to use. One could argue
that allowing different optimization functions was FS.
BTW, it was a *really cool* approach to caching.
Anyways, the notion of "best strategy" for modeling a webapp depends
on a whole ton of factors like:
- what model are developers familiar with (if adoption is the key)
- what model is most straightforward (to who?)
- what model is the least verbose (if size matters)
- what model makes the fewest demands on the programmer/architect/...
- what model is most maintainable
- what model requires the most supporting tools
I'm concerned that as we satisfice (which, don't get me wrong, is a
good thing) we are going to prevent Cocoon from become the "Avalon of
the Web Publishing World". Avalon, as I understand it, doesn't
enforce much of a conceptual model on the developer. It does have
one, but it is nice and generic and as such doesn't constrain
What sucks is that I agree with much of what you say regarding
flexibility syndrome. I'm grappling with SVG right now because there
are so many ways to accomplish what appears visually to be the same
thing. On the other hand I don't want to alienate all of the
[FSM|Prolog|WebObjects|...] developers who have a really good
understanding of what have been shown to be pretty reasonable models
of web development.
Unless of course what we come up with really is better on all axes,
in which case full steam ahead!

Purposes and Aims of Navarro College Sports Medicine
Navarro College Sports Medicine exists as a support organization aiding in the utmost professional rendering of health care and counseling to the athletes who represent Navarro College by participating in NJCAA athletics.The program prefers to be identified as Navarro College Sports Medicine and not Navarro College Athletic Training. Although the core of the group gets its inner strength from the staff and student athletic trainers, the organization exists on a larger scale as members of a larger sports medicine team that includes physicians, administrators, and consultants that are called on countless times to provide much needed support.
Care of the Navarro College athlete encompasses a wide scope of responsibilities that can be broken down but not completely limited to five main categories with several branches falling under each one. The textbook, Principles of Athletic Training, by Arnheim and Prentice provides an accurate layout of these duties:
Prevention of athletic injuries
- Requiring and assisting with pre-season physical examinations.
- Developing training and conditioning programs to ensure proper conditioning for participating athletes.
- Maintaining and fitting protective equipment.
- Counseling and Guidance
- Ensuring a safe playing environment.
- Taping and applying prophylactic devices
- Rehydration specialization
Evaluation and Immediate recognition and management of injuries
- Basic first aid care
- CPR and rescue breathing
- Clinical evaluation
- Proper treatment protocols
- Transport or referral to proper medical personnel
Rehabilitation and Reconditioning
- Designing or following clinical rehabilitation protocols
- Ensuring that the athlete returns at an apt time
- Educating the athlete on conditions of their injury and time of return
- Proprioception training
- Cardiovascular reconditioning
Health Care Administration
- Overall organization of policies concerning day to day running of the training room
- Maintaining records of all treatments, rehabilitation's, and illnesses
- Education and supervision of student athletic trainers
- Keeping adequate supplies and ordering of those supplies
Professional responsibility and development
- Staying up on current trends and developments in the medical field
- Consulting with and viewing the work of physicians and others associated with the sports medicine team
The Navarro College Sports Medicine Team also functions to educate student athletic trainers at the junior college level to be completely prepared to move on to the next level of athletic training, and ultimately become allied health care professionals. Education of the student trainers involves day to day experiences in the training room and on the Navarro College athletic fields. The team attempts to saturate the student trainers with an abundance of opportunity and information in the clinical setting as well as the education that they pick up in the classroom. Student trainers get hands on experience under the guidance of a lincensed athletic trainer. There exist many duties that fall under the five main domains of athletic training listed above.

I was in a hotel room in Mexico City when I watched the Tokyo fight in which Buster Douglas beat Mike Tyson 22 years ago. The result seemed so bizarre that I wondered if I might have stumbled into a parallel universe. That is not an unusual feeling in Latin America. The decision by an Ecuador appeals court to uphold a US$18-billion judgment against petroleum giant Chevron was perhaps less surprising, but hardly less surreal.
For the second time in a week, a corrupt, leftist South American government appeared to have gained a legal "victory" over Big Oil. The Chevron decision followed hard on the announcement that the government of Venezuela had to pay only a fraction (under US$1-billion) of Exxon Mobil's demands (US$7-billion) related to expropriation of the company's assets.

oakley snowboard goggles | cheap oakleys outlet sunglasses, wholesale for m frame prescription glasses.
oakley snowboard goggles McDonald's is expanding their 'build your own burger' initiative, with additional locations rolling out the test menu selection, reports MSN Money on Thursday. The concept was initially limited to select McD's locations in Laguna Nigel, Calif. Customers there are able to order exactly what they want on their burger – using a touch-screen tablet menu board – including the size of the burger, cheese and a variety of toppings. Kevin Newell, U.S. brand and strategy officer for McDonald's, was mum about where the new test sights would be, or exactly how many would be adding the ala carte topping options. "It'll be more than five, less than a hundred," Newell said coyly. He did reveal that most test locations would still be centered in Southern California for now. The customized burger initiative is an expansion of McDonald's "Meal Builder." According to McDonalds.com, their "Meal Builder" allows you to "take control and create your own meal combinations. You can also get the nutritional breakdown of your favorite menu items… You can use the Meal Builder to subtract cheese from your sandwich, check the protein levels in your salad, or see the components of your kid's Happy Meal." McDonald's is looking to keep up with other sandwich and burger franchises that offer customers "wiggle room" in their orders, such as Five Guys and Subway. One national chain that has done extremely well in the "make your own" category is Chipotle. "Customization represents another important opportunity for our business," Newell said, adding that certain restaurants will be equipped with larger "assembly tables" to accommodate additional ingredients for customers wanting specific toppings.

the MODEL
FIAT 130HP RACER by POCHER 1/8
Click on thumbs to go to a larger versions of photos
the CAR
Vincenzo Lancia and mechanic - and future superstar driver of the 20's - Pietro Bordino, pushing their Fiat F1 in the pits.
The Fiat 130hp GP Racer was fitted with a mighty 16.25 litre 4 cylinder motor. Each piston weighed almost five kilos.
Thundering along at 160 km/h, it's big cylinders firing about once every telegraph-pole through it's open exhaust, it must have been an awesome spectacle.
Racing over dirt roads strewn with rocks the size of a fist and with crude rear only brakes and skinny tyres, the men who steered these beasts and often died in the doing, were unquestionably the gladiators of the twentieth century.
The modern F1 driver can't even imagine the bravery that these drivers possessed.
Three Fiat 130hp Racer's took part in the 1907 French Grand Prix at the Dieppe circuit and were driven by the greatest drivers of the time, Vincenzo Lancia, Felice Nazzaro and Louis Wagner. The winner was Nazzaro, running at the extraordinary average of 113.612 km/h.
Italy's Fiat Grand Prix car for 1907 was intended to end the French dominance of racing once and for all. A new formula was introduced based on fuel consumption (a maximum of 30 litre's per 100 km / 9.42 mpg) without any weight or engine capacity limits. Fiat introduced a car designed by Giovanni Enrico which was powered by a 4 cylinder 16,286 cc engine. The engine produced 130 bhp and the car weighed 1025 kg. Distinctive engine features were the 90° V-arranged overhead valves, hemispherical combustion chambers, centrally placed spark plugs and a Simms-Bosch magneto ignition.
Motor: 4 twin-block cylinders
Effective engine capacity: 16286 cc
Power: 130 HP at 1600 rpm
Speed: 160 km/h (100 mph)
Weight: 1025 kg
the DRIVER
In 1907, at the age of 26, Felice Nazzaro was the greatest driver in the world. With his effortless and immaculate technique, he stayed at the top, retiring from premier level racing in 1924 after almost 25 years in the most dangerous game in the world.
A cagey driver, Nazzaro would often hang back at the beginning of a race, waiting for the leaders to fail and then would pounce into the lead, sometimes making the fastest lap in the process.
Nazzaro was very young when he started work in the workshop of the Ceriano brothers (Fiat founders) and he was soon competing for the new Fiat racing team. He won the Padua 200 km race in 1900 at the wheel of a red Fiat and the 1901 Giro d'Italia in a 6HP Fiat. The popular star of numerous Italian races early in the century, he even became an idol abroad, with a brilliant second place for Fiat in the Gordon Bennett Cup of 1905. Slight of build, gentlemanly of nature and immaculate in dress, his skill as a driver, mechanic and diplomat earned him the position of 'works' Fiat driver alongside Vincenzo Lancia in 1905.
1907 was Nazzaro's greatest year. He won the three most important races in the world; the Targa Florio in a Fiat 28-40hp, the Kaiserpreis Kaiser's Cup in Germany in a Fiat Taunis and THE most important race on the calendar, the French Grand Prix in the Fiat 130hp F2 Racer.
On the 8 June 1908, Nazzaro set the auto speed record at 193kph for 2.75 miles and briefly exceeded 200kph, the first driver in the world to do so.
Felice Nazzaro, like Lancia and many other successful drivers of the period, also wanted to try his hand at producing cars. The First World War was looming and Fiat had begun to withdraw from racing, so in 1911, together with some colleagues, he founded 'Nazzaro & C.Fabbrica di Automobili' in Turin. Initially his name was enough to ensure sales of the first model, the Tipo 2 powered by a 4.4 litre four cylinder side valve engine, which emerged in 1912. His race team, although generally beset with mechanical failures, had some notable success in motor sport. In 1913 he won the Targa Florio for the second time, driving a Nazzaro Tipo 2, putting no less than 3 hours between himself and the runner-up! A couple of years later an improved model, the Nizzaro Tipo 3 was released. The company organisation, however, was weak and along with the ravages of the war, the company went into liquidation in 1916, after having produced around 230 cars plus some 50 trucks. At the end of the war Nazzaro tried again, this time at Firenze. 210 examples the Tipo 5, a 3.5-litre overhead cam four-cylinder powered car were built and a Nazzaro GP car, driven by Meregalli, won the 1920 Targa Florio before Nazzaro finally gave up Nazzaro Automobili for good in 1923.
Meanwhile Fiat, who due to the war had all but stopped racing in 1912, had returned in 1921 and Nazzaro had joined the team again. His team mate was Pietro Bordino, who had been a riding mechanic for Fiat and who was now regarded as the world's fastest driver. But it was Nazzaro, now 42 years old and 9 years from the last time that he had raced in an important long-distance event, who won the 500 mile 60 lap 1922 French Grand Prix at the fast 8.3 mile Strasbourg circuit, driving the Fiat 804/404 2 litre six-cylinder racer. He had been at the wheel for 6 hrs 17 mins 17 secs and had averaged 79.2 mph for the 500 miles. He had also taken the fastest lap at 87.75mph. Only 3 of the 18 starters made it to the finish. After the win, it was remarkable how fresh Nazzaro seemed, but he was, as always, tireless. Sadly the race was not without tragedy for Nazzaro, when another Fiat, driven by his nephew, Biagio Nazzaro, broke a back axle shaft, lost a wheel and overturned with fatal results. Nazzaro had narrowly escaped death earlier in the year in an identical accident in the Targa Florio and after so many years at the pointy end of a very dangerous era in motor racing, he must have been seriously considering a quieter lifestyle. Later in the year he finished second to the young Bordino in the Italian Grand Prix and finished second again in the 1923 European GP in Italy, his last significant race result. Nazzaro would step aside for the younger Bordino at the end of 1923.
At the end of 1924 Fiat closed down their race team and Nazzaro was appointed head of the Fiat competitions department for existing cars in 1925 and continued until Fiat, after Bordino's spectacular one race comeback and GP win at Monza in 1927, finally withdrew from racing in 1929. We can only speculate on how many more races Nazzaro would have won, had the war not denied him 10 years of racing, at the peak of his driving powers. Tragically the world's greatest early century driver was at the wheel of his road car when he crashed and was killed in 1940. He was 59 years old.
BIRTH: 1881 Turin, Italy
DEATH: March 21, 1940 (Road Car Accident)
Grand Prix 22 - Wins 5 - Seconds 5 - Thirds 2 - Top 10's 16 - DNF's 6
the RACE
In 1907, the French Grand Prix was the most important race in the world.
At 6 am, on 2nd July, a cannon was discharged and at one minute intervals, 38 of the world's best drivers, in their mighty sixteen litre open exhaust racing monsters, thundered away.
We can now scarcely imagine the sights and sounds of that morning.
The Automobile Club of France moved to the great Dieppe circuit in 1907 for the first of the circuits three Grand Prix. The circuit was basically triangular and contained an interesting variety of mild uphill and downhill sections. The total of 10 laps of 47.748 miles - a single day's racing was now recognised as more convenient for everyone - gave a racing distance of 477.48 miles. National racing colours were also insisted on for all the runners.
Eleven teams of French cars were entered, against one each representing Belgium, Italy, Germany, America and Great Britain. Different rules were imposed, the consumption of fuel being limited to 30 litres per 100km. This works out at 9.4 mpg and, while this was a move to try to improve engine efficiency, it was not of great inconvenience to competitors, and big engines remained the norm.
Clement-Bayard, who had done so well in 1906, were having a poor year and it must have required all the famed fixity of purpose of Adolphe Clement to have continued with his entry after his son Albert's fatal accident while practising.
On race morning at 6 am sharp, a cannon was discharged to commence the proceedings. The starters were sent off at intervals of one minute and at 6.01 am Lancia in the Fiat, number F1, was the first to be despatched on his long journey. Duray, driving a De Dietrich, who had started three minutes behind Lancia, had closed the gap on the road to Lancia to just over 1 minute by the end of the second lap and an electrifying duel between two of the fastest drivers of the time emerged. But it was the new Fiat driver Louis Wagner who actually led the race on time. Wagner led for three laps in the Fiat F3, at a sizzling average of 72.1 mph, only to crash on lap 4. This let Duray, who had passed Lancia on lap 3, into the lead where he stayed until lap 9 when his De Dietrich seized its gearbox. This moved Nazzaro, who had passed Lancia's misfiring Fiat, to the front, with Szisz chasing him, but the red Flat F2 had an unshakeable lead and won at 70.5 mph from the French car, with Barras' Richard Brasler third. De Dietrich driver Duray, had made fastest lap, at 75.4mph.
- and as for Nazzaro, he had finished with only 11 1/2 litres of petrol - enough to take him a mere 20 miles!
Fiat 130hp Racer 1:8 by Pocher.
IMPORTANT: Beware of using the museum "original" as a reference. This car has been heavily modified since it won the 1907 race and is incorrect in many respects. Unfortunately this was all that Pocher base the model on, without further research, so the model has the same errors as the museum "original".
1. Painting guide.
Body Mid to Dark Browny Red
The area between the back of the seats and the fuel tank is body colour, not black.
No pin striping
Radiator surround painted body colour
Radiator core painted off-white with number in black
Aluminium cowl is body colour
Dashboard is body colour
Front Wheel spokes painted body colour
Back Wheel spokes varnished timber - rim is body colour
2. Tyre rubber
was off-white with no tread.
3. Exhaust
. Note the short exhaust in 3/4 rear F2 pit picture. The exhaust exited the engine via 4 pipes which came straight down to a large horizontal cylindrical collector and then exited through a large and very short exhaust pipe. This will have to be scratch built
4. Dashboard.
Note metal panel above fuel tank.
Also - the 2 top timber foot boards appear to be missing on the race photos.
5. Bonnet vents
. The front 3 vents on each side should be cut from the bonnet and turned around so that they all face the same way.
Also - the round holes above the vents in the left side of the bonnet should be blanked off as were the holes on F2 in the race.
6. Radiator
. The model's radiator core is a real problem, with the area for the F-2 being raised and smooth on the radiator core.
Also the original car radiator was painted a light grey with the F-2 in black. (The opposite to the box art and museum "original".)
7. Seats
. The actual race car seats was trimmed with straight pleats.
See picture.
The model has diamond pleating as per the museum "original".

This is an ORIGINAL 1873 MAP of Ashley and Nanticoke in N. E. Pa., near Wilkes Barre. T is also has a close-up of Plumbton which I believe is present-day Warrior Run. The map is highly detailed and all of the houses are marked with the owners or occupants names. T is also a list of the prominent businessmen in the area. Many coal mining facilities are marked. The map has a fold in the center as it was 2 pages in an atlas. T's about a 1" split at the right edge of the fold but t is paper behind this. T's slight age discoloration on the edges of the map, otherwise the condition is very good.
The map was published in 1873 by A. Pomeroy, Philadelphia, from a survey by D. G. Beers, and it measures approx. 15 1/2" x 23". These early maps were hand colored and the close-up scan shows the best representation of the colors. It will be shipped flat by Priority Mail for $4.50. Only one S&H charge applies if multiple purchases of my maps ship together. Insurance is available for $1.35.

My final chapter of Batman Beyond 2.0 is finally out and I just wanted to publicly thank the rest of the Batman Beyond 2.0 team for being such an awesome bunch of guys.
Choosing to leave Batman Beyond 2.0 was a very difficult decision. I wish I could have continued on the book indefinitely. However, due to my growing work schedule at Titmouse Animation and my book, Tech Jacket, I was not able to give Batman Beyond the proper attention that I felt it deserved. To me, that would be a disservice to the character and to the team.
Though my role as colorist is a small part of a bigger picture, I do hope that the fans enjoyed what I brought to the comic. Working on the book was possibly the best professional experience I have had at DC Comics to date.
Know that this is not the end of me coloring things Batty related or for DC. The door is still open to small runs and covers etc. Unfortunately, I just cannot commit to a full series at this time.
To Alex, Thony and Kyle: I wish you guys good luck on the chapters to come.
This is for you.

Deck railing posts on DIY horse farm deck
I am building an 80 foot deck on 2 sides of my house.I am at a standstill with the railing design.I do plan on locking it in by bolting and blocking the posts inside the joists.My question is since my deck is 1 story off the ground are cedar 4x4 posts strong enough ? They seem awful wimpy with their liteweight.I watched DIY decked out on the horse farm deck and the built up posts looked great,but they never went into any detail on them.I am also using the black aluminnum spindles.Are the dekorator railing U type attachment brackets good enough ? I just hate wobbly posts and railings.I want rigid but great looking . Thanks for any help.
How tall are your joist? 2x10, 2x12 ?
Some lumber yards you can get 5x5 posts and depending where you get your 4x4 posts they may only be 3.5"x3.5" ... Bigger is definitely stronger. Often comes down to budget. Also if you go for posts every 6' instead of 8' it will be so much stronger even with 4x4 posts.
A 'T' top handrail also adds significant strength.
My joists are 2x10. Thinking of going with p.t. 4x4 and boxing outside with cedar ----2 sides flush and 2 sides overhanging slightly and router with round over bit. Do you think i will have any issues with boxing in the posts.I am going approx 66" between posts for symmetrical look out front.
4x4 cedar posts are strong enough, the key to success is proper connection detail of the posts to the rim joists. Presumably you are pulling a permit, and are following code. The International Residential Code prescriptive guide to deck design includes very good details concerning proper attachment technique for the railings, if you follow the details you should be OK. Of course you should discuss the design with your building inspector before construction, they may have some ideas, and there may be local variations on attachment technique.
As for the Dekorator aluminum posts, the plastic spindle posts attachments top and bottom work fine.
I was asking about the aluminum channel holders for the rails ,not thhe spindle holders.Guess I was alittle vague on what I was talking about.I subscribe to deck builders mag and there is a great issue on post attachment that I am following.Thanks for the input.... Ed
Any other input is apppreciated thanks in advance..

The photofacial has been great. I noticed dramtic results quickly after the first session. I noticed an eye floater after the session, which has not gone away. I went to my eye doctor but he said the two are not related.
I did the photofacial because I am 34 and have many sun spots and a few broken capillaries.I had a photofacial yesterday and some hair around my hairline was singed or burned. This did not occur during my first photofacial. I have fair skin and blond, fine hair. Will this hair grow back?

Vienna, 2 October 2009 – "Today, a lot of lost ground has been regained, and Croatia's EU negotiations are gathering momentum again", said Foreign Minister Michael Spindelegger, expressing his satisfaction with the substantial results of the EU Accession Conference with Croatia. Five negotiation chapters (free movement of workers, corporate law, statistics, trans-European networks, and customs union) were closed in the first round of negotiations, following the temporary blockade caused by the Slovenian-Croatian border dispute. In addition, six new negotiation chapters were opened, such as free movement of capital, agriculture, regional and structural policy, freedom and security).
"Now we must steer the course and continue the negotiations at pace. I am confident that Croatia, too, will consistently pursue its reform course. Our objective remains unchanged: Croatia should become the 28th member country of the European Union", said Spindelegger. According to the Foreign Minister, unless new unexpected obstacles arise, and if Croatia tackles the remaining tasks in a timely manner, nothing stands in the way of a completion of the accession negotiations during the next year. He added that Austria expects the accession negotiations with Croatia to inject new dynamism into the EU rapprochement process for all other states of the Western Balkans.

Tess Vigeland: Kai -- as we've been noting this week -- is on assignment in China. You may remember he and a crew broadcast from Shanghai and Chongqing five years ago. A lot's happened since then both in China and globally. First and foremost, the financial crisis and Great Recession. So they are back visiting those two cities for an update.
'Cause after all, we're all kind of counting on the Chinese economy to step up and help save the world.
So Kai joins us from Shanghai. Hey Kai!
Kai Ryssdal: Hey Tess.
Vigeland: Or I suppose I should say ni hao?
Ryssdal: Ni hao, there you go. That's pretty good.
Vigeland: Thank you very much. So anything interesting happen so far?
Ryssdal: Lots interesting. You can't come to this country and you can't come to Shanghai without interesting things happening. But here's just one: We were out doing some stories on American companies here and Chinese consumers and we talked to some folks at GM. And we went out to a Chevy dealership, the biggest one in China. And I was talking to the sales woman there about how she sells to Chinese customers. So I said all right, well listen, give me the sales pitch.
Vigeland: How'd she do?
Ryssdal: Well she did pretty well actually. First of all, she's saying it's got good gas mileage and it's a good value for your money. So I decided to throw her a curve ball and I said, "Listen, I'm sorry but I have four children and they are just not going to fit in this car." And two things happened. One was you could see a look come across her face 'cause nobody's ever going to walk into a Chinese car dealership and say I've got four children because of the one-child policy. But the other thing she said was, "Well sir, then I think you' ought to buy two." So you give her points for thinking on her feet, right? But it's also a little insight as to why GM is doing as well as it's doing here. Which is by the way, really really well.
Vigeland: Well let's about GM for a minute since they might be one of the biggest American success stories there, aren't they?
Ryssdal: Yeah, they are absolutely one of the biggest American success stories. And I'll give you an example: the Buick. You see 'em all over the place over here. They are a status symbol for a certain section of the market. There's a part of the Chinese car-buying public that buys cars not to drive them, but to be driven around in. So what GM said was listen, we need to make a car with a longer wheel base that gives more room in the back end for the person who's being chauffeured around. So they kind of figured out that little thing. But I was having a conversation with the head of GM China the other day and I asked him about the company's growth because it has been unbelievable. They went from 500,000 cars a year five years ago when Marketplace was here to 2.3 million cars every single year. That's like the definition of explosive growth. And I said how do you plan for that? And he said, "Oh, I just plan to stay a full factory ahead." So this guy is selling more cars in China than GM North America. He's making billions of dollars. And what he's doing is he's planning, by the factory-full, his expansion. Which is kind of amazing.
Kai at a Chevy dealership in Shanghai.
Vigeland: Boy, that just says it right there. So good for GM, also seems like it's good for the U.S., the world even. You've got the global downturn. Industrialized nations growing at 3-4 percent at best. China still going great guns at 7-8 percent. So are you getting the sense that Chinese people are ready to step up and help drive the rest of the global economy? Are they ready to spend?
Ryssdal: So here's the thing. So when we came here the last time, the basic question we were asking was: Should Americans be afraid of China and its growing economic power? And our reporting at that time basically led us to the conclusion of no because there are so many other things going on here. That's exactly the same now. I think in a roundabout way of answering your question, they just have their hands full over here. Yes, there are some problems in the American-Chinese relationship, right? They control our debt. We've got a trade gap. All of that stuff. But I think if you go out on the street outside my hotel and you ask the average person, they are way more worried about inflation at 5 percent, what food is going to cost next month, than they are about what their purchasing power means for American GDP. I'll give you one more example on the possibility of a downside risk here. We did some interviews yesterday about real estate in Shanghai, which is unbelievably high. We talked to this 24-year-old guy who owns his own apartment. He just bought another one last month at the top of the market. So I said to him, aren't you worried that this is all going to come crashing down? And he looked at me and he said, "No, Shanghai real estate will never lose money." So I tried to explain to him the whole American real estate crash thing, and he looked at me and said, "Shanghai real estate is different." So we agreed to disagree, I guess.
Vigeland: All right. Kai Ryssdal joining us from his hotel room in Shanghai. Hey, do me a favor would you? Teach me how to say goodbye.
Ryssdal: Zai jian.
Vigeland: Zai jian.
Ryssdal: Zai jian. Literally I will see you again. Zai, again. See you, jian.
Vigeland: Auf wiedersehen.
Ryssdal: See you later.

Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda said Monday he retains the right to dissolve the House of Representatives and can call a snap election even though the unconstitutional vote gap disparity in the chamber has not been corrected.
At a special Lower House committee deliberating seven bills related to social security and tax reforms, Noda said that correcting the vote-value disparity is a matter of "utmost priority."
But even before it is rectified, "the right of dissolution is not restricted," he emphasized. His remarks came in response to a question from Nobuteru Ishihara, secretary general of the conservative Liberal Democratic Party, an opposition force that has been repeatedly demanding the dissolution of the Lower House for a snap election.
Noda is under pressure from the major opposition parties to dissolve the chamber soon and seek a voter mandate for a consumption tax hike, the centerpiece of his Democratic Party of Japan-led government's broader social security and tax system reform initiative.
Ishihara sought Noda's response after Azuma Koshiishi, secretary general of the DPJ, said Noda may be unable to dissolve the Lower House before addressing the vote-value disparity, which is more than two times for single-seat constituencies, a gap judged unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in March 2011.
"A Lower House dissolution is not a matter to be decided by public discussion," Noda said. It should basically be decided in my mind and carried out when it is needed."

Language courses"Uno pint of lager por favor," says the young Englishman as he cowers at the far end of a Bogota bar. He's in the first few weeks of his Gap Year in South America, and quickly realising that there were a few things he should have considered, which would have made life just that bit easier.
"Uno, pintos de lagos pleaso peso," he stutters. It was the tenth time that week that he regretted ignoring his mate's advice, and learning the local language.
You can book a flight ticket in a moment. Join a tour in a flash. Fix up your travel insurance in a jiffy. Book a hotel in a heartbeat. But when it comes to learning a language, you need to plan a little ahead — and contrary to popular belief, that doesn't mean schlepping your way to an evening class every Tuesday night for 12 months.

UBS Upgrades Nortel Networks to 'Buy'
UBS Financial upgraded Nortel Networks (NT ) to buy from neutral.
Analyst Nikos Theodosopoulos says he expects Nortel's share in UMTS to climb close to 15%, vs. about an 8% share in GSM. He says recent contract wins reinforces this view. Also, he thinks Nortel could benefit from a potential EVDO deployment at Verizon. He believes the recent surge in deployment of voice-over-Internet-protocol (VoIP) services favors Nortel.
Theodosopoulos raised the 2004 earnings per share estimate to 13 cents and upped the revenue estimate to $10 billion. He raised the 2005 earnings per share estimate to 24 cents on $10.9 billion in revenue. He says the increase reflects higher estimates for wireless and wireline businesses, and is based partially on an improved outlook for the third quarter. Theodosopoulos also raised the $5 target to $6.

Global 3 Piece Cooks Knife Set. Set comprises of 8" chef's knife, 5.5" utility knife and 3.5" paring knife (G2, GS5 and
GS38). Loved by professional chefs around the world, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook.
The thin and razor sharp Global blade allows the cook to cleanly slice through foods, preserving the integrity of the
ingredient and maximizing its flavor. The majority of Global knives are ground to a straight point rather than the
western style of beveling the edge. To balance their knives Global uses a hollow handle that is filled with just the
right amount of sand to create the correct balance. The handle has its own unique darkened dimples for a non-slip grip.
Because the knives are very light weight they reduce hand fatigue. Global knives have a smooth contour and seamless,
all stainless construction that eliminates food and dirt traps. Global knifes are forged in Japan from CROMOVA 18
Stainless Steel, a blend of 18 percent chromium for good stain resistance plus molybdenum and vanadium which gives
excellent edge retention
