Wtb:e46 m3 18' oem wheels
I am after a rear set of the M3 18' OEM wheels M Double spoke 67
Tyres and condition do not matter
rear: 9JX18 ET:26
Found a full set on gumtree in great condition. Paid $1,000 but dont mind as they had near new Continetal ContiSport 3 tyres with 95% tread
I have a set of rears.
I assume the 18s are for track days Hazey?
Hazey, get Loren's set of rears and run a squared set up for track.
Yes they are for track days. Don't want to trash my PSS's on the CSL's. Given I paid the extra amount for these 18's with new set of CS3's, I most likley wont go down the square route untill i wear these tyres out.
The only concern I have with with a square setup with the 18x9 et27 on the front is the camber settings required to get them fitting with 265/35/18. From all the threads Ive read on the square setups they look to be running pretty aggressive camber and settings you dont really want to be running on the street.
I'm looking for a good camber setting for street/track that wont eat the insides of my PSS prematurely
EDIT: I will have eibach pro-kit springs too
If you're keen on tracking the car, are you going to go coilovers? Or keep the springs? If you're going to stay OEM there is actually a camber mod you can do that will give you more neg camber without running camber plates. Else get coilovers and camber plates. The ones that wilay is selling (PSS10 with vorshlag) is a pretty good setup. I have the same camber plates, no issues with them.
Ive heard of that mod, do you know if it works with eibach springs. I saw the PSS10 for sale too..tempting
If I can get enough camber on just eibach springs so as not to scrub the outer shoulders of my tyres from hard cornering but at the same time be ok for street then i will be happy.
Hazey where have I seen your car? you on the beaches?
Nope not on the beaches. Dont drive it much, only weekends
ah fair enough, there must be someone else rocking a similar plate setup!
theres a set of 18s on ebay for $500..
Hey guys, any rubbing on those 18's up front? Looking to buy a set of rears.... just for general road use. Bad idea??
Wtb:e46 m3 18' oem wheels
I've got a set sitting here in Melbourne with rw tyres if your interested.

Any idea on postage? Curb rash ? And what tyres? You have them on your 330?

About me"A little library, growing larger every year, is an honourable part of a man's history. It is a man's duty to have books. A library is not a luxury, but one of the necessaries of life." - Henry Ward Beecher
About my libraryNo, I have NOT read everything here. (I've read more of it than you might think, though.) I custom-built a couple hundred feet of bookshelves for our family room. Yes, we have now officially run out of shelves (we've been forced to resort to the barbarity of double-shelving (*Gasp!* The horror!), and - until the kids leave the nest - we've just about run out of wallspace to put bookshelves. Consequently, some of the older/rattier/less-referred-to stuff has Gone to Storage.)

Control of subsidiaries of MNCs from emerging economies in developed countries: the case of Taiwanese MNCs in the UK
Item TypeJournal Article
MetadataShow full item record
There has been considerable research over the past few decades on the process through which headquarters of multinationals from developed economies exercise control over their network of subsidiaries in foreign countries. However, little research has been conducted on multinationals from emerging economies operating in developed countries. In this paper, we examine the motives for, and mechanisms by which, headquarters of Taiwanese multinationals exercise control over their subsidiaries in the UK. The paper draws on data collected through 66 interviews with top managers and human resource managers from four UK based subsidiaries of Taiwanese multinationals. The study reveals that Taiwanese multinationals use both output control and behaviour control to manage their subsidiaries in the UK.

The Nebraska Conference of the United Missionary Church was organized in 1896 as the third conference of the church. It at first included all the territory west of Indiana, but the Pacific (Washington) Conference was organized from this conference in 1906. In 1955 the conference had 774 baptized members, with 16 ordained ministers and 8 probationers in 20 congregations, and one district superintendent, for an area roughly 2,500 by 900 miles. Congregations were located as follows by states: Nebraska, seven; Iowa, four; South Dakota, three; California, two; Kansas, one; Colorado, one; and Oklahoma, one.

"I felt good today," Maloney said. "I had good command of my fastball. I walked a few guys, but overall, felt pretty good out there."
"He threw the ball real well," manager Dave Huppert said. "He changed speeds and made some big pitches in the seventh inning when he had to. He walked a few guys, but overall his command was good."
Since May 22, the 22-year-old out of Mississippi is 6-1 in eight starts with a 1.17 earned run average.
"I think I have put myself in a real good situation and have helped the team win ball games," Maloney said. "The team has been playing well behind me, and everything has been going well out there so far."
Assistant General Manager, Mike Arbuckle, and Farm Director, Steve Noworyta, were each on hand for Maloney's performance. As Maloney continues to dominate the South Atlantic League, High Class-A Clearwater is a phone call away.
"I think this ball club is here to win and that they will leave him alone to see where this team can go down the stretch," Huppert said.

I agree. But I don't think it's only a matter of the Z4's pricing with regard to what comparable performance you can get for your money. The success of the Z3 (which I am sure they are trying to replicate) was primarily the allure of having an affordable good looking BMW roadster. A lot of men and women went after the car. Since then, many other manufacturers have jumped in the market. The SLK takes away the crown as a flashy cool car a girl may want to get (hardtop acrobabitcs are cool). And for performance, the Boxster delivers. There are other competitors as well for less money.
Even if one were to argue that the Boxster and the Z4 have comparable performance for the money, the Porsche name will overshadow the BMW name to many of those shopping. To some this will be their best car ever owned and they rather flaunt a Porsche convertible than a BMW one. And remember most buyers are not performance nuts.
Finally, I am yet to meet ONE girl who likes the Z4 better than the Boxster as far as looks go.

Resolution Adopted by the CCAR
Adopted by the 107th Annual Convention of the
Central Conference of American Rabbis
March, 1996
At present, our nation's biological diversity is under legislative attack. Measures threatening to dismantle key legislation for endangered species, clean water, clean air, and public lands are presently moving through Congress. Agencies charged with enforcing legislation and regulations protecting biological diversity, such as the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of the Interior, will face severe budget cuts and limits to their regulatory powers within the next year. If successful, these anti-environmental measures and budget cuts to federal agencies will have serious negative repercussions on all living beings and a particularly destructive impact on endangered animal and plant species.
Protecting endangered plant and animal species has both practical and religious significance for our communities. Maintaining biological diversity directly helps to ensure the public health and beauty of our nation by supplying medicinal ingredients, crops, invaluable natural resources, and indirectly by maintaining precious stable habitats and a healthy environment for generations to come.
Our tradition teaches us to respect and protect nature's diversity as a means of developing a spiritual connection with our Creator, reminding us that, "The Earth is the Lord's and the fullness there of" (Psalms 24:1). We are instructed to protect all living beings regardless of their aesthetic beauty-- "Even those things you deem as superfluous, such as fleas, gnats and flies, even these too are purposefully included in the creation of the world." (Genesis Rabbah 10:7)
We are taught to treat all of the Eternal's creations as holy and of intrinsic value-- "Of all that the Holy One, blessed be God, created, nothing was created without purpose."(Shabbat 77b) In fact, we are told in Talmud (Sanhedrin 38a) that human beings were not created until the "sixth day so that if so that if our minds become too proud, we could be reminded, 'Even the gnats preceded you in creation.'" The Rambam builds upon this theme, instructing us to value nature, not in relation to human use, but for its own intrinsic worth: "It should not be believed that all the beings exist for the sake of the existence of humanity. On the contrary, all the other beings too have been intended for their own sakes, and not for the sake of something else." (Guide for the Perplexed).
Thus, we are taught in our tradition not only the ethic of Bal Tashchit, do not waste or destroy, but also to preserve nature. To truly fulfill the obligations of our faith, we must act as stewards of Creation, making its care one of our core responsibilities.
Resolution Whereas Judaism recognizes in its tradition the interdependency between all living beings and holds great reverence for the protection of air, water, and land.
And whereas our environment and all living species have come under persistent and growing threats to their well-being in this previous year in domestic legislation and international treaty making:
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Central Conference of American Rabbis:
1. Reaffirms our strong commitment to the environment as articulated in its 1983 Resolution on Toxic Waste, 1990 Resolution on the Environment, and 1992 support for the goals of the Rio Biodiversity Conference.
2. Continues to create effective environmental education programs in synagogue schools, camps, and enrichment programs.

What do you mean when you say the time is approaching when they may walk the earth again? And why has this been planned for many thousands of years?Quoting: Bent
What do they want from us?
I have tried to explain it all in that series of articles. However, below is a summary from
[link to www.pbase.com]
Secret Societies such as the Freemasons, Skull and Bones and Illuminati regularly engage in very specific ritualistic ceremonies and practices which are used to call up the various dark entities or "gods" that they worship. The elite believe that this is the source from where much of their knowledge and power is obtained. Much of the elite (bloodlines) believe that they are actually direct descendents of these "gods". While it's true that some of their knowledge and power is gained this way, the actual process is mostly reversed with the dark entities drawing from the energy that is freely given to them during various rituals and ceremonies. Dealing with these entities is analogous to gambling in a casino…the house always has the advantage…still we see plenty of people that are willing to participate in the game.
Most of these entities are energy based, therefore, they require specific types of energy in order to sustain themselves. They have been trapped here for many millennia in an artificially suppressed energy field that keeps them confined. During this time, they have relied on the energy of the human race to feed and sustain them. Large gatherings of people who engage (knowingly or unknowingly) in ritualistic practices, provide very high concentrations of energy which help make them stronger.
It is my belief that the 2012 Olympic Games will be the granddaddy of ritualistic events. All the symbolism points to this. This event, like most rituals of the Secret Societies, is designed to call up or give praise to the dark "gods" that they worship. This time, however, the intention is to permanently manifest them in/on this world (physical plane). There are certain cosmic events (solar activity, alignments with energy fields, etc) that are presently occurring which are increasing the levels of etheric energy here on Earth. This increase in natural energy levels, combined with the Olympic Games "hidden in plain site" occult rituals (involving the focus/energy of billions of people), is a rare combination of circumstances which (they believe) will finally release them from their bonds.

Calcio Coaching: Walter Mazzarri's free kicks
Forza Italian Football is pleased to bring its readers a regular new feature – Il Mister. Our experts will endeavour to show you all the methods and tactical secrets employed by Serie A's best football coaches.
As discussed in previous 'Il Mister' articles, the set piece is an incredibly crucial element of any coach's training program.
Many goals can be scored by these dead ball situations and top tacticians have preset routines that they will rehearse with their players in the hope of giving them the edge during a match.
In this edition of our Calcio Coaching, we will bring you a flavour of Serie A coach Walter Mazzarri's free kick schemes, as used by his current Napoli team.
Free kick 1
Eleven will aim an in-swinging cross to the centre edge of the six yard box.
The ball is intended for 5 who will make a run from outside the penalty box.
As 11 crosses the ball, 4 and 9 will make runs towards the front post whilst 7 moves towards the far post.
Eight will be expected to cause confusion by blocking any man markers following his team mates.
Free kick 2
From a slightly less deep position to the previous routine, 10 will aim to hit the ball just beyond the penalty spot.
Runs from 7 and 4 will be the main focus.
However, if the ball is over hit, 3 will have made a run to the far post, having arced his movement around his team mates.
Five is expected to block any man marker that follows 3.
Free kick 3
Ten will cross the ball to the far post just as 9 makes his run around 7 who will attempt to block the man marker.
Players 4 and 8 will attempt to meet the ball whilst 5 runs from deep to the far post in case the ball is over hit.
Free kick 4
This is a direct free kick on goal by 11 with a shot over the wall.
Ten will start to the side of the defensive wall and then make a run to the edge of the six yard box.
Players 8, 7 and 9 will also attack the box.
The important thing in this scheme is that left footed player 3 will feign taking the free kick, to confuse the defence.
Free kick 5
Ten and 4 stand over the ball. 10 will simulate a powerful shot on goal but will instead send over a chip for 7 to attack.
Two is expected to block the man marker as 7 makes his run.
Free kick 6
Ten passes to 4 who stops the ball.
Ten then hits a long ball towards the far post in the hope of reaching 3 who has made an arced run to the back of the six yard area from the space created by the run of 5.
Players 7, 9 and 11 all attack the goal.

Christchurch: The Transitional City Pt IV
Christchurch: The Transitional City Pt IV
Out of Stock
Don't be put off by probably the plainest cover I have ever seen on a book, delve inside and you'll be captivated. This is a significant, inspiring piece of publishing, something to treasure especially by all whom have been affected by the Christchurch earthquakes, but also to the wider NZ community. I shall value my copy. – Graham Beattie
This book is a collection of 153 temporary and transitional projects that have occurred in Christchurch since September 2010. It illustrates a city dealing with the tragic loss of people and the massive changes to its urban fabric that includes losing 80% of its central city buildings and over 4000 residential houses, and the hopes, frustrations, and dreams that all this entails.
The book profiles many types of projects including: acts of protest, improvised community constructions, artworks both legal and improvised, bars, cafes, temporary stadiums and shopping centres, and much much more. It is the first book to compile these important projects, and is an historically important document. It is also something of a how-to manual that will contribute to the intelligent and creative rediscovery of Christchurch City.
Size: 210mm x 210mm x 50mm
Pages: 328
Books are now available in: Scorpio Books, HAPA, Christchurch City Gallery, Addington Coffee Co-op, and selected Paper Plus stores. In Wellington: Unity Books and Capital Books. In Auckland: TimeOut and Auckland City Gallery.
[A very limited first edition was made especially for the inaugural Festival of Transitional Architecture with generous support of the Warren Trust, and Kiwibank. This first run has now sold out. But a revised edition is now available for sale]

HD…And Then Some
Every show these days seems to feel the need to contain some talk about higher definition video formats than the 1,920 x 1,080 level we're becoming used to now. But actually there was less such talk at CEATEC than we might have expected – perhaps because manufacturers are more mindful in these grim economic times of potentially scaring off people from buying into today's HD 'level'.
In product terms, the only higher HD resolution AV product making a serious song and dance about itself was JVC's DLA-SH4K '4k 2k' D-ILA projector, which was delivering the same demo witnessed at IFA to the same deliriously satisfying effect.
The commercial cinema possibilities for this projector are clear, though questions inevitably remain over exactly where any filthy rich home users might be able to find native 4,096 x 2,400 video content with which to get the best out of their new home cinema dream machine.
The only other significant source of higher definition chatter was Japanese TV giant, NHK. Remarkably, NHK has had a 7,680 x 4,320 pixel format called Super Hi-Vision since 2005 – backed up by 24-channel audio, don't you know – that continues to fire the imagination of anyone who sees it in action. But don't worry; the challenges involved with filming in, broadcasting, displaying and storing Super Hi-Vision are still to be overcome, so it's hardly going to be something you need to worry your TV-buying heads about for some time yet – if ever.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- For the second straight game, the University of Michigan men's basketball team used its inside-outside game to dominate play today (Saturday, Dec. 31) as the Wolverines closed out the non-conference season with an 86-69 win over Chicago State before 10,148 fans at Crisler Arena. With the win the Maize and Blue finished the non-conference season with a 10-1 record, marking the best start for the program since the 1992-93 season.
Sims was two blocked shots shy of posting a triple-double.
Senior guard Daniel Horton (Cedar Hill, Texas/Cedar Hill HS) shined again on perimeter for the second straight game as he posted his second straight double-double (points-assists) after his 17 points and career-high-tying 10 assists. Senior wing Lester Abram (Pontiac, Mich./Northern HS) tallied a season-best-tying 19 points on 8-for-11 shooting while junior guard Dion Harris (Detroit, Mich./Redford HS) had 12 points after going 5-for-10 from the field.
Sophomore wing Ron Coleman (Romulus, Mich./Romulus HS) came off the bench to help the Wolverines as he tallied a career-high eight rebounds to go along with his eight points. Freshman wing Jevohn Shepherd (Toronto, Ontario/West Hill Collegiate) also came off the bench for a career-best six points and career-high-tying five rebounds.
With the start of the first half, the Wolverines took control quickly and early as they continued their hot shooting ways opening up a 10-point advantage through the first five minutes. The mixture of Abram cutting to the basket and Harris knocking down the outside shot helped Michigan build the early 24-12 lead through the first 10 minutes.
The Wolverines turned to the inside game and strong defensive pressure to push the lead to 21 with three and half minutes remaining, as Chicago State was held without a basket for four and a half minutes. Sims used his size and was strong down low as he poured in 10 first half points on 5-of-7 shooting to go along with six rebounds and three blocked shots. With the additional 15 points from Abram, who was 6-for-7 from the field, and 10 from Harris, the Wolverines closed out the first half shooting 62.1 percent from the field (18-for-29) and matching a first half season-best 20-point advantage, 46-26.
With the 20-point lead, the Wolverines came out in the second half still red hot as they rattled off the first 11 points, seven of which were at the hand of Horton, in the second stanza to extend their lead to 31-points, 59-28 with 15:53 remaining. As the half continued, Chicago State's backcourt of David Holston and Royce Parran, started to put up the three's as they rattled off six of its 11 attempts in the second half to cut into the Michigan lead.
However, any Cougar bucket was answered by U-M as the Wolverines held strong going back inside to Sims as he dominated down in the post as he had 12 points, seven rebounds and five blocks in the second half alone to help him to his seventh career double-double. Chicago State continued to make a push throughout the half, but could only lower the Wolverine lead to 15 points with four and a half minutes to go as Horton controlled play helping the Wolverines build the lead back to 22 points with under two minutes to go, eventually closing out the game with an 86-69 win.
The Wolverines will now begin their 2006 Big Ten Conference schedule with a trip to Bloomington, Ind., Tuesday (Jan. 3) as they face No. 17 Indiana at Assembly Hall. Tipoff against the Hoosiers is scheduled for 6 p.m. with the game broadcast on ESPN-Plus.

Mets Player of The Month May 2010June 1, 2010
5 Responses to Mets Player of The Month May 2010
Pingback: Link the Mets, Link the Mets… Tuesday Morning Edition : Mets Today
Absolutely! I saw him go into the stands a few years back when the Mets were in LA and I had a feeling then that, given a chance, he would shine. So, what do we do with him when Carlos gets back? I say keep him in. Tuli Reno
I think we have to see how Jeff Francoeur is playing when Beltran returns. When/If Beltran returns and he shows he's healthy here is what I would like to see happen:
-Beltran CF
-Pagan RF
-Francoeur bench
-Gary Matthews Jr. cut
Very good call, he is definitely overlooked a the type of player that any good team needs to win.
I think we are watching a player mature and take his game to the next level. Very nice to see.

Wonder if your Passat is safe in a collision? I think mine did just fine, it drove away with the trunk and lights all working. I just don't know how it's going to get fixed
Wonder if your Passat is safe in a collision? I think mine did just fine, it drove away with the trunk and lights all working. I just don't know how it's going to get fixed
Sounds like you had an accident with the Passat...but I can't see pictures
- Jeremy.
I'm sorry I'm horrible with computer stuff. I got rear ended by this car while waiting to make a left turn. It was bad enough to warp the unibody between the rear glass and the passenger side rear door
Ugh, hope you're all okay! Definitely looks like you got the better outcome of that business though!
The Passat is definitely a champ. I just don't know how any one can make the car right again. Anyone with auto body experience have any thoughts? I half hoping they call it totaled and I can bring home a new one.
If repaired properly, it'll be right....maybe not as right as it came of the assembly line. But, it'll be right....unless Maaco does the repair and paint work!!
The longer I think about this accident the more frustrated I get. I saved up my deployment money to get this car. I traded in my used 07 Jetta and the dealer gave me pennies for it because it had a accident on its record even though they couldn't tell it was wrecked till they pulled the carfax. I feel like I no longer own a new VW I feel like I own junked one and I've just lost any value I had in it.
Glad you are ok and it does look like the Passat held up really well. Having been hit in the rear while in an older Honda Accord, I am very impressed at how well the Passat did...
Tell the other person's insurance that you will settle if they just total your car, or buy it from you so you can get a new one. If they won't, tell them you suddenly feel major back and neck pain... Insurance companies had MUCH rather pay and total your car than to pay out medical claims.
Personally I think she was but the police on scene didn't mention it. For some reason the teenage blonde girl who hit me didn't get much questioning. I'm hoping the insurance company does a bit more in depth research.
WTH, Kelly Blue Book doesn't even have an option for 2012 Passat. I can't even determine a value for the car when they come to look at it for an estimate. This is going to be such a clusterF*#k. How can they determine what % of the cars worth the damage is if there isn't a baseline for what the car is worth with 8.5k mileage on it.
That hurts. I would hope they total it too. Had my jetta t-boned and it was never the same.
Crazy to see the warping on the c pillar area.

Looks totaled to me.
From the pictures it looks like someone's head hit the passenger's side windshield of the offending car. That had to leave a mark.
TDI, the only reason to own a Volkswagen.
Glad you are ok! Sorry for your Passat.
Thanks everyone for the good wishes. Now to battle the dreaded insurance companies.
i'm impressed you don't have any injury to your neck whether a cervical strain or sprain.
i had a similiar accident like yours in 07 in my 04 vw but not as bad and i had no warping of pillars. however, there was about $4K in damage to the vehicle and i did have about 2 years of dealing with neck issues.
since your car is brand new, you will definitely be able to argue and go for vehicle devaluation allowance in addition to whatever else you will be seeking for damages.
i had 2 accidents on my 04 but only 1 showed up in carfax - the one that was a rear ending. also dealership offered about 5K to by my 04 earlier this year but i sold it on CL for 9500 letting peeps know there were really 2 accidents on the car in addition to street parking damage.
all is not lost.
thank God you are safe and the Passat did an amazing job if you are not suffering any neck or back sensitivity after the accident.
good luck.

Having worked at a body shop before it's a 50/50 on them totaling it out. I think you might be better off with a total and hope they give you enough to get the same car. The car would never be thr same or "new" again. I feel you pain and would be sad if anything liek this happend to my Passat. Hope it all works out. Let us know what happens.
I got it on video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqHxTOtHMtQ
Its sounds like you weren't hurt... glad the Passat did its job
2012 Passat TDI SE DSG. 99,000 miles. LED tails, VCDS tweaks (wipers, alarm, cluster)
2004 Touareg V10 TDI. 150,000 miles.
1999 Jetta "GLX" TDI. 309,000 miles. RCIII, BV49, S520, Knois.

Past: 91 Jetta ECOdiesel. Totaled. 92 Jetta ECOdiesel. 87 Audi 5000S Q. 85 Jetta 1.8.
Still, it looks like the Passat held up nicely. The crumple zone did a great job.
Went to a local body shop just to get an idea of what the cost of repair would be. Initial estimate is about $6,200 and 15 working days. Once the actual adjuster comes out I can take it up to the dealer and see what it's actually going to cost and start the "total loss" war. I hate this BS

'Eclipse' to Be Previewed on 'New Moon' DVD
It is still unclear when the first trailer for "The Twilight Saga's Eclipse" will be debuted, but "Twilight" fans who are eager to get a preview to the upcoming film can get it on "The Twilight Saga's New Moon" DVD or Blu-ray. Reports mention that the ultimate fan DVD edition of the second film will feature seven-minutes long sneak peek at "Eclipse".
The sneak peek includes new interviews with Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and the book's author Stephenie Meyer, which are integrated into the behind-the-scenes and on-set footage. It additionally will feature the world premiere of a scene from "Eclipse". The ultimate fan DVD edition of "New Moon" will be made available for sale on March 20 and can be pre-ordered from Walmart starting Thursday, February 11.
In another news, it was recently rumored that the first trailer for "New Moon" will be attached to "Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" which will open wide in U.S. theaters on February 12. However, the report was soon debunked by Gossip Cop which claimed they have confirmed to Summit Entertainment that the trailer will not be outed with this weekend's "Percy Jackson" launch.
"The Twilight Saga's Eclipse" will follow Bella Swan who once again finds herself surrounded by danger. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward Cullen and her friendship with Jacob Black - knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. David Slade takes the helming duty and the flick will be dropped in U.S. theaters on June 30.

Trainer Gregg Sacco
is going to be a busy man come Saturday's New Jersey Thoroughbred
The conditioner will
saddle seven runners in the course of Saturday's 12 races, including one in all
of Monmouth Park's three stakes races.
"We're certainly
going to be busy Saturday," Sacco said.
"We've got a lot of good horses running and hopefully we can have a big
Leading off the trio
of stakes runners for the Sacco barn is Pot O' Gold Stable's Voodoo Charm who
will face five older rivals in the $60,000 New Jersey Breeders' Handicap. The 3-year-old son of Devil His Due hasn't
finished worse than second in four 2011 starts.
"He's really
developed into a nice horse this year," Sacco said. "He's only three and will be facing some
seasoned older horses, but he's answered the bell on everything we've asked of
him so far this year."
In Saturday's Race
7, Red Oak Stable's Hung Jury will step up against stakes company for the first
time. The 4-year-old gelding by Closing
Argument has a win and a second-place finish at the 1 1/16-mile distance of the
$100,000 Charles Hesse III Handicap.
"Hung Jury is not an
easy horse to train and is not very easy on himself in his races," Sacco
said. "Last time, he kind of hung a
little bit in the stretch. He seems to
wait on horses sometimes, but we think this is a good spot for him to make his
stakes debut."
In the $60,000
Jersey Girl Handicap, the aptly-named Ima Jersey Girl will try for her fourth
win of the 2011 Monmouth Park season.
The 3-year-old filly by Lightnin N Thunder successfully stretched out to
a mile and 70 yards last out in the form of a 3 ¼-length win.
"The way Ima Jersey
Girl has trained gave us every indication that she would stretch out," Sacco
said. "She surely answered the bell last
out. She's only three and will be
running against some older horses who are more seasoned at the distance and
against stakes company, but there weren't really any other options for her."
In addition to its
three stakes runners, the Sacco barn will also send out Scatalicious in Race 2,
Silent Appeal in Race 5, Late for Class in Race 6, and Courage to Be in Race

Susie Buchmyer had heard enough. The stories of how the ongoing recession was hurting people moved her so much, she knew she had to act.
"One day I thought, 'Omigosh, I just feel terrible. I have to do something,'" says the co-owner of Buchmyer's Pools in York, Pa. "That morning, I came in to work and the staff knew by the look on my face that something was up. I told them [how I felt], and they said, 'What do you want to do?' I said, 'I just want to give back.'"
So Buchmyer and her crew came up with a way to make it happen. They would approach local farms, orchards and grocery stores for food donations, and distribute whatever was given to needy people and families in the area.
"We threw it together really fast because produce was involved, and Labor Day and pool closings were coming up," Buchmyer notes. Her staff, family and friends sprang into action, hitting the phones, sending emails and visiting suppliers in person. Store customers were also encouraged to contribute money or bring in nonperishable items.What they accomplished in just a few weeks was impressive to say the least.
"We got a ton of food," Buchmyer says. "Peaches, pears, green beans, corn, orange and yellow peppers, zucchini. One farmer gave us 20 bushels of apples. We got 170 watermelons."
Fifteen stores donated gift cards in amounts of $10 to $25, which the company used to purchase food that they then assembled into individual meal bags (such as spaghetti and sauce, or cereal and juice); snack bags (chips, popcorn, pretzels); and kiddie bags (Tastykakes and pouch drinks).
Before they knew it, Aug. 28 had arrived and it was time to distribute the goods.
"[Our business is] at a busy intersection and we knew it could be a parking problem, so we set up the food distribution like a drive-through," Buchmyer says. Huge tables were placed in the store parking lot, and the food bags were positioned for quick dispersal.
Buchmyer's nephew stood out at the road with a sign reading "Food for the needy," and additional helpers, including her daughter, three grandchildren and employees busily handed out bags.
Approximately 150 cars pulled up, some with more than one family inside. A few folks arrived on foot.
"It was a mixture of people," Buchmyer says. "There were seniors on fixed incomes, a lady… living out of her van, and a man with a wife and three children who had just lost his job after 27 years."
Will Buchmyer do a food drive next year? "Yes! I'm so in awe of how everything worked out," she says. "It's about pulling together, neighbors helping neighbors. With a little more time to plan, it can be even bigger and better."
She's happy to report two local charities — York Rescue Mission and York's Helping Hands for the Homeless — also received food, supplies and money collected by the Buchmyer crew."My only wish is that all the farmers and businesses could've been there to see [the food distribution]," Buchmyer says. "People got out of their cars to give us hugs, and one woman said, 'You're my angels.'"

|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
Situated just a few steps from the village square, our house is ideally located for all local amenities. Our house is ideal for larger families or groups, but can also accommodate small families and couples. On the ground floor, you will find a traditional arched entrada, tiled staircase, cozy kitchen and courtyard. There are 4 large bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, plus salon and a bright, spacious studio. Last but not least, there is a roof terrace with spectacular views of the Tramuntana mountains and Puig Major - a perfect place to relax and soak up the tranquil atmosphere of Fornalutx village life!
Changeover days: Changeover days can be flexible - so please ask. If we have guests arriving on the day that you leave, you may be asked to check out by 10am, although you are welcome to leave your luggage at the house during the day.
We love Mallorca all year round - sitting in front of the fire in Winter, hiking in Spring and Autumn and hitting the beach in Summer.
Lemons and Oranges purchased this house in 2008
It has a very authentic local character, and the view from the roof terrace is amazing.
Just a quick note to say that we really enjoyed our stay at your house. On our arrival, we found Rosa to be very welcoming and very helpful. Fornalutz is a beautiful place and it was great to return to your house at the end of the day after our various excursions. It was also nice to be near the main square for when we wanted to eat out or just while away an hour in one of the Bar/Restaurants.
We loved the house and Rosa who manages the home was so friendly and helpful.
We felt very much at home.
Please Miguel could you put a rail or bannister to get up to the terrace as some of us suffer from vertigo.
We do hope to come back soon.
We had a friend who has lived in the village for many years, so it was great to just pop out of the house to meet Veronica for coffee.
We loved the square and visited lots of the restaurants. All were very good.
The house was clean and everything worked fantastically.
This was my fifth visit to Sa Costera the last time being in 2012.
Since then the beautiful house of Amy/ Miguel has had a number of improvements especially the addition of a new en suite shower/toilet
All additions have been lovingly done in the traditional manner
This time I was there in the first week of September and Fornalutx had a week of festivities which included a tethered bull being chased through the main thoroughfare and also entertainment every day eg traditional dancers,singers,school brass band etc
My review in 2012 outlined the enjoyment from walking the promenade in Port de Soller.This time I went back and found that it has become an even better experience with improved pavement,many more restaurants and bars,and the tram now runs along the whole beach area
Thanks once again Amy/Miguel for the invitation to visit and enjoy your house and area
We had a very relaxing enjoyable stay. The property is comfortably equipped and we enjoyed sitting on the roof terrace in the evenings. The property was clean and well maintained with good local services a short walk away, and would recommend it to friends and relatives.
Liz & Esmond
We absolutely loved Fornalutx. And should we be so lucky to come back to Mallorca, there would only be one house for us - Sa Costera.
It is like a treasure chest, so authentically and warm , we felt at home right away.
The3 location could not be better, parking was no problem, the weather was fantastic. One of the best holidays we ever had.
Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful house!
Frank & Christiane
My friends and me enjoyed our one-week stay at the pretty house of Amy and Miguel very much! We loved cooking in the cute citchen, chatting in the little patio and chillig out at the roof terrasse. From there you look over the old houses of beautiful Fornalutx and one has a good view on the Tramuntana mountains. Beeing equipped with everything necessary for feeling comfortable in the house, it's like being at home - just quieter ;)
With renting a car (recommended!) we could easily explore the island. The detailed information provided by Amy and Miguel helped us a lot for the orientation.
If possible, we definitely will come back!
Thanks a lot for everything and best wishes from Leipzig, Germany!
(Prädikat: besonders wertvoll und absolut empfehlenswert!)
The house is situated just off the heart of the local square. It boasts beauty, tranquility, convenience but also safety. We were happy to allow our seven year old and (very young) thirteen year old out on their own to buy fresh pastries and fruits for breakfast every day. You are at the heart of this very picturesque traditional village square within a few seconds walk from the house. The square offers a couple of coffee shops, a bakery, convenience store (where the children bought carrier bays of fresh fruit everyday for just a few euros), some nice restaurants and a very pretty church. We had no problems entertaining the children during our stay at all and the locals were very welcoming and friendly. The house itself is very traditional Catalan in its style and design. It is very spacious and yet maintains an almost intimate feel to it. We loved our holiday there and will certainly stay there again, in fact our seven year old was in floods of tears as she really did not want to leave (certainly something that I have never seen her do before).
I would definitely recommend this house for a holiday to anybody at all (unless you struggle with stairs). We loved every second of our stay and are looking forward to returning next year.
Situated in the heart of the Serra de Tramuntana (a UNESCO world heritage site), in a spectacular valley that starts from the Puig Major and descends towards Soller, Fornalutx has been described as 'the prettiest village in Spain'. Set in a tranquil valley of orange and lemon orchards, Fornalutx is only 15 minutes away from a sandy beach at Port de Soller, and half an hour from the beautiful city of Palma. The area around Fornalutx is particularly popular with cyclists and hikers who enjoy exploring the wide selection of nearby trails. The village itself is very picturesque and has won several awards for conservation. The pretty village square is surrounded by an old church and several cafes, and the village boasts a number of very good restaurants serving local and continental food.

A Fodor's and Frommers Favorite in Santa Fe! Large private suites, full breakfast and fantastic deal. Located in the Historical Downtown Santa Fe New Mexico, the Inn is situated in a quiet historic neighborhood. We are a short 10 minute walk to the Plaza, Canyon Road, and a multitude of art galleries, museums, and fine restaurants. Seclusion in the city--the best of both worlds. The Inn's ten spacious accommodations are all comfortably and tastefully decorated with local and Native American art,and feature wood or gas fireplaces, jacuzzi tubs and King size beds. The privacy, tranquility, and personal attention bring guests back year after year.

We spent 4 nights at the lovely Don Gaspar B&B in the Olive Tree room. Staff was extremely pleasant and helpful with ideas for sight seeing and dining. In particular Anna and Christine were very friendly and helpful. We will make plans to return again!

Ana and Patrick were so helpful and accommodating. We would come back in a heartbeat.
3.6 on April 25, 2015
Beautiful inn. Very easy to walk to all the attractions and restaurants downtown.
3.4 on March 05, 2015
Very nice, would definately recommend. Excellent location, within walking distance of old Sante Fe.

We visited in December and had a perfect stay. The fireplace and two-person tub were wonderful, and we loved having so much room (our unit had a large bedroom, large bathroom, living room, and dining room/kitchen, as well as a small private patio in back. It was the perfect place to be cozy in front of the fire, and the food every morning was delicious and plentiful. Don Gaspar is a short walk from the plaza, and situated in a very cute neighborhood of adobe houses. We would recommend this to anyone looking for a romantic getaway in a quiet place!
4.2 on September 08, 2014
Both innkeepers were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the area. The fruit at breakfast was one of the freshest and most varied we have had while staying at a B&B. The Kachina room had sitting space and closet space. Both of us had room to move around and we both enjoyed the tub.
4.4 on July 30, 2013
I had the good fortune of finding the Don Gaspar Inn for a somewhat last minute visit to Santa Fe. I missed a communication on arriving and access to my room after hours while traveling and the Manager stayed late to make sure I got into my room without problems. That was just the beginning of an amazing visit. My room was beautiful with all the Southwest charm anyone would want. However the best part of my stay was the morning breakfasts. A beautiful setting, delicious menu and everyone who works there is friendly, helpful and kind. I highly recommend staying at the Inn. Only three blocks from the center of town, but has the peace of being just a few blocks away at night. You can sleep with the windows open and the only sound you will hear is the fountain in the courtyard. Thank you! Jackie

Really enjoyed the attention to detail in our room, especially heated floors with snow outside on our last morning. Have stayed other places in Santa Fe (once a year trip) but this is my favorite. The Santa Fe Suite's bed was so comfy and loved the spa tub.
4.6 on August 08, 2012
Don Gaspar Inn was a cute bed and breakfast within walking distance of the plaza downtown Santa Fe. The room was spacious and clean, and came with local coffee and plenty of amenities. The bathroom was large and beautiful, with an oversized tub (that unfortunately we were not able to use) and double sinks. We didn't have the opportunity to dine here, as our flights were changed suddenly by the airline, but you can't beat a great location with a decent and safe walk to town. Nice place, highly recommended!
5 on June 21, 2012
Nine members of our family spent several days just after Christmas 2011 at the Don Gaspar; what a delight to be in Santa Fe in the wintertime. In fact, when we again decided to visit Santa Fe in June 2012, we would have booked no other place than the Don Gaspar. Why return to the Don Gaspar? The location is perfect, close enough to walk to town, but also far enough from the crowds to enjoy the quiet courtyards surrounding the Inn. And, we would return if for nothing other than the breakfasts!! Ana serves up the BEST breakfasts in this entire world: pork enchiladas, egg/asparagus casserole, zucchini bread, raisin bread, delicious yogurt and fruit and a granola to die for. There is no reason for a noon meal: just dive into the breakfasts and then plan for a dinner out. Need to know anything about Santa Fe--anything at all? Just ask Ana; she is an intelligent, informed delight. The rooms are a little piece of Southwest heaven. Are you wondering if you should book at the Don Gaspar? Oh, my goodness YES. Pam and Judy and Shella
Innkeeper Response
And we loved having you return to the Inn for a spring visit. It's so nice to be able to get to know our guests when they return over and over. Ana is our inn's expert on Santa Fe. Thank you for all your kind words. Hope to see you again soon!
