Supermarket FRESH FOOD Business: Make room for mushrooms
Once the cellar dwellars of the produce department, mushrooms are coming into their own as a stable, profitable category.
The popularity of fresh mushrooms continues to sprout across the United States, thanks largely to their versatility and gourmet appeal, as well as to the many new varieties from which to choose, each with its own distinct flavor.
Unlike most vegetables, mushrooms are grown from spores, not seeds. The spores that are used in today's sophisticated mushroom farms are collected in nearly sterile laboratories, then mixed with grains or seeds to form a spawn, which is the equivalent of a seed for mushroom farmers. Since mushrooms don't have chlorophyll, they must get their energy from the organic matter, or compost, in which they're grown.
According to the USDA's Agriculture Research Service, per capita U.S. consumption increased from 3.7 pounds in 1993 to 4.2 pounds in 2000. Sales of the 2001-2002 U.S. mushroom crop totaled 851 million pounds, and consumers spent $912 million on them. Average price was $1.07 per pound, up 6 cents from 2000-2001.
Pennsylvania accounts for 55 percent of the total volume of mushroom sales, followed by second-ranked California, which contributes an estimated 15 percent of the total mushroom crop annually. Far and away, the most popular edible fungi is the venerable Agaricus or white button mushroom, while brown Agaricus varieties, marketed as portabellas and creminis, are now available in even the most modest supermarkets.
Other specialty mushroom varieties, such as oyster and shiitake—once used only by exclusive, big-city chefs—can also be found in many supermarket produce departments. While specialty mushrooms make up less than 10 percent of total mushroom sales, consumption of exotic mushrooms is on the rise, says Fred Caito, executive director of Caito Foods, an Indianapolis-based produce distributor.
Going mainstream
"It's a great category. Overall, mushrooms represent roughly 2 percent of all produce department dollar sales, give or take," says Caito, noting that the figure has "really gone up a lot in the last 10 years with the advent of portabellas, shiitakes, creminis, and other varietals that have become more mainstream." Sliced white buttons and sliced portabellas have also made a healthy dent in the retail mushroom market in recent years, he adds.
Mushrooms have certainly come a long way, Caito affirms, recalling that when his family's business first began in 1965, the market for mushrooms was remote, to say the least. "We used to bring mushrooms in on a Greyhound bus from Pennsylvania, but by the end of the '60s, mushrooms were being used much more frequently by foodservice operators, which helped make them more popular."
As such, Caito says, the pack sizes for retail increased accordingly, "and even though they're still a delicacy, they've become a mainstay, with white buttons contributing nearly 60 percent of the average store's mushroom sales."
Caito continues: "The neat thing about mushrooms is that they're a cultivated item—they're almost manufactured—which offers very predictable harvesting, and thus they get a lot of ad time because they're so easy to promote. Plus, Americans are finding more and more uses for them." As an example of this versatility, Caito cites one of his family's favorite at-home meals: mushroom burgers.
"We just marinate a portabella mushroom cap and grill it like a hamburger; garnish with cheese, tomatoes, onions, and perhaps some hot peppers; serve it on a hamburger bun; and enjoy an absolutely wonderful meatless meal," Caito explains.
Category commitment
Dan Lucovich, v.p. of marketing for Worthington, Pa.-based Creekside Mushrooms, Ltd.—which bills itself as the world's largest single producer of fresh mushrooms—says retail mushroom sales peak during the holiday season from November through January, while foodservice use of mushrooms is particularly strong in the summer.
Creekside, whose products are marketed under the Moonlight brand, operates what it says is the world's largest underground mushroom farm, featuring a 150-mile labyrinth of tunnels originally created by limestone mining. The naturally friendly growing environment provides ideal year-round conditions for top-quality mushrooms, Lucovich says.
Servicing retail customers from Western New York to Wisconsin, Lucovich says Creekside pro-- duces everything related to its mushroom business on-site, from the blending of raw materials to the finished packages that are shipped to customers. The company's value-added packaging features a full line of colorful trays, pre-printed film, and color-coded cases in a variety of sizes with a sell-by date code providing 10 days of store shelf life at delivery, or a Julian date code on the day of packaging.
"Right now, we're in a total organic program," says Lucovich, noting that while Creekside markets only a small percentage of its products as certified organic, all of its mushrooms are produced as such. "Up to now, there hasn't been a large market for organic mushrooms, but we're currently working on ideas and concepts regarding the best ways to market the fact that as far as we know, we're the only producer in the U.S. that produces mushrooms that are chemical- and pesticide-free."
In general, commitment to the cate- gory— which for many has been an afterthought—is the single best way to maximize mushroom sales, according to Lucovich. "Retailers that have display cases that highlight all of the varieties provide consumers the opportunity to check out the full presentation and hopefully to walk away buying one or more of the items on display."
He continues, "Probably 90 percent of the time they're going to buy a white mushroom, but you really need all the other varieties to attract them to and drive the whole mushroom category."
Once thought to be devoid of major vitamins and nutrients, mushrooms are now gaining respect as a good source of potassium and copper, with some types featuring significant amounts of three B-complex vitamins. (See the sidebar on page 82.) That's a message being put to good use in the Produce for Better Health Foundation's "5 A Day the Color Way" campaign, which urges consumers to eat a colorful variety of fruits and vegetables by choosing at least one serving daily from each of five color groups (blue/purple, green, white, yellow/orange, and red).
Health benefits
And there appears to be even more encouraging news relative to eating mushrooms: A recent study reveals that diets high in mushrooms have been shown to inhibit aromatase, an enzyme that controls the production of estrogen, which can stimulate the growth of breast cancer.
This month, consumers will become aware of perhaps the most important health benefit of mushrooms: They're high in selenium, a nutrient that shows promising signs of helping reduce the risk of prostate cancer. A promotional partnership between the Washington, D.C.-based National Prostate Cancer Coalition and the Eastern Mushroom Marketing Cooperative of Kennett Square, Pa. was launched at the start of both National Mushroom Month and National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. The promotion, which is expected to continue for more than one year, flags packages of mushrooms across the eastern half of the country with blue ribbons to raise awareness about reducing the risk of prostate cancer by eating a healthful diet and undergoing health screenings.
The Dublin, Calif.-based Mushroom Council, which has continued to operate despite a 2001 ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court that it can no longer collect mandatory assessments for the purposes of advertising and promotion, has not let the high court's decision cloud its vision to remain a viable, useful resource for the industry.
To the contrary, after a two-year process to develop a game plan that's both "relevant and valuable, we're now an R&D resource for the industry," says council president Bart Minor. Noting that the Mushroom Council's $1.5 million budget has been redeployed toward broad-based market research, Minor says, "We've taken a step back so we can help the industry have a better understanding of what's to come, and where the opportunities and threats are in the future, so that retailers can make better marketing decisions."
Providing information in the areas of nutrition, value-added opportunities, and new product development for both retail and foodservice accounts will take precedence in the council's multitiered efforts, Minor says.
Image enhancement
"We keep hearing that purchase decisions are now driven by convenience and value, so we want to find out more about what that means, how it translates into actionable product changes and development, and new ways to stimulate greater consumption at retail," he says.
"Take, for instance, the quality of mushrooms on display at retail. We suspect if that could be improved, retailers could probably increase mushroom sales five times more than any advertising campaign ever would," Minor notes. On the foodservice side, he says, "Those operators are just as interested in convenience and value and getting a handle on costs while still enhancing the image of what they're serving.
"Mushrooms came on the scene hot and heavy about 15 years ago from a fresh standpoint, but it seems we've reached a point where the novelty has worn off, so where do we go from here?" Minor continues. "The nutritional value of mushrooms is just beginning to be understood in this country, and that will be a very important part of it."
Moreover, mushrooms are still a mystery to many people. "The only things more perishable than mushrooms are berries, so education is also needed to teach people how to handle them," Minor says. "I think the industry is ready to go to the next plateau. There are all kinds of opportunities and lots of knowledge to be gained, not just by the producers and sellers, but certainly by users as well."
Looking to the future
Commenting on the Mushroom Council's ongoing organizational makeover, Minor says its ultimate goal is to excel at making research information accessible via "a valuable online interactive site with actionable, useful tools.
"It's an ambitious dream, but our six- to 18-month goal is to have something online where retailers and suppliers can look at best practices; input their own demographics, sales, shrink, and related information; and analyze what they would be able to do to create new shelf sets, merchandising, and promotional programs based on their unique situations."
One of the council's first projects in its post-promotion existence is a recently released research study conducted by the Perishables Group in 2001 and 2002 to understand the factors that cause shrink in the mushroom category. (See the sidebar on page 82.)
"The most important point of the shrink study," Minor says, "alludes to fact that the quality of mushrooms is extremely important. The main message to the retailer is found in results of a case study where we analyzed the value of best practices and ended up with retailers increasing their bottom line in the mushroom category by a full one-third, which is certainly a compelling finding."
When all's said and done, Minor says there's a lot of room for improvement with mushrooms—not just for the mushroom industry, but also for retailers' pocketbooks.

A 19-year-old man has been charged with impaired driving after a vehicle drove off the road and plunged into Lake Ontario early Saturday.
The driver was heading south on Lower Spadina Ave. when he failed to stop at Queens Quay and landed in the freezing water around 5:30 a.m.
Police said the driver was the only person inside the 2004 Mercedes-Benz SUV.
"He ended up in the middle of the lake," Sgt. Jeff Zamit said from the scene.
The driver was able to exit from the passenger side of the car, according to witnesses who helped pull the man from the water.
He was first taken to hospital before being placed in police custody.
Divers from the Toronto Marine Unit pulled the SUV out of the water Saturday afternoon.

Refunds expected for "5 finger shoes"
The company behind "five finger" barefoot-style shoes could soon be giving refunds.
Vibram USA was sued over health claims it made about the shoes, saying they could prevent injuries and strengthen muscles. Critics argue there's no science to back up these claims.
While the company denies any wrongdoing, it has agreed to pay out $3.75 million in a class-action lawsuit to anyone who bought the glove-like shoes. It will also stop making health claims in its ads.
If the settlement is approved, people who bought the shoes after March 2009 would be eligible for a $50 refund with a valid claim.

More information
I loved the sample of this product so much that I decided to buy it. It makes my skin feel really smooth, and there was a definite reduction in the visibility of my pores.
I have also received positive feedback on my skin upon using this product.
On a day I used it I had a friend who came to visit and she and commented on my skin looking great. The other time my bf was touching my face and said it was feeling super smooth. I've never thought much about products marketed as 'pore reducing' but this has worked great for me!
I don't believe this decreases the actual size of your pores, but it certainly makes them appear smaller. Perfect as a base for makeup, it has a smooth, velvety finish. It has definitely helped me with oil control throughout the day (I especially noticed it when I didn't use it one day - my face was dripping with oil by midday, as it has before I started using this). My only issues are that it's expensive (although you don't need to use a lot), and the fragrance - although not unpleasant, I find it unnecessary and potentially irritating. Will continue to use and repurchase until I find something better.
I was sceptical and only have this a go because I knew that the other Bioderma products I've tried worked so well. I put this on half my face and was shocked to see the difference within 5 minutes. Not only did this do what it claims to do, it made my pores smaller, skin smoother and shine free.
As soon as I started using this product I noticed that by the end of the day I didn't have that oily forehead and nose

Wavelength, a global network bringing together business leaders and social innovators. Liam is an award-winning social entrepreneur who has founded and led a number of social businesses. With Jamie Oliver he grew Fifteen into a global brand with businesses in Europe and Australia. Liam's a mentor to young entrepreneurs and a busy writer and speaker on entrepreneurialism and social innovation.
Reading Dom's blog about what he looks for in a mentor made me think about my mentoring history. I'm a pushover for any young entrepreneur who asks for help and over the years I have mentored/coached/helped scores of them. Dom may be the first Tory I've mentored, and despite differing political views, we get on well! Our relationship is proof that the mentor and mentee (awful word) need not share identical beliefs – in fact it can help the mentee get challenging different perspectives.
I have had huge benefit from mentors. My best was Graham Morris who in 1999 I recruited to chair the social business I was then leading. A scouser and a hard man from the car industry, he had more business knowledge in his little finger than I had in my whole body. Graham helped me enormously and pulled off that rare trick of being able to push and challenge me without ever talking down or making me wrong.
My mentoring is a combination of advice giving, door opening, connecting, hooking up with money, getting access to supply chains and, often, simply listening and assuring them they're not nuts and it is okay to get really mad and have a good cry about how damn hard it is to create and sustain a business of any sort.
Sometimes the help they want is very basic – business model options, branding ideas, getting enough cash to pay next month's wages (!) – but as a relationship develops and deepens it inevitably becomes more personal and there are many conversations about purpose, balancing the business with personal relationships, fears, exits and rewards.
With social entrepreneurs working with the homeless or deprived youth, an area we soon get into is identity . I try and help them uncouple their own sense of worth from what they are doing. Too many (often middle class) people want to 'save' the poor and – albeit unconsciously – tie up their own redemption with their social impact. Many the long hour with a social entrepreneur beating himself or herself up that they couldn't save so and so from going back to prison or from drinking himself to death. The sooner that people realise that they cannot make anybody do anything, the better their mental health will be and the more sleep they'll get.
How to remain passionately committed to the cause and not burn out is a regular topic of conversation. Social entrepreneurs can act as if they really believe the world will stop turning if they take a few days off to look after themselves. One of these would be world saviours told me recently the best advice I gave him several years ago when he was up against it was to take a holiday and have some fun. He did; mentoring is not brain surgery.
The worst thing you can do as a mentor is dance round the hand bag or prevaricate. If an idea is crap then tell them. If they repeatedly don't do what you advise, say goodbye. Sometimes it is about helping them work out better questions but, when I clearly know more than they do about something – or at least have made the very mistake they are about to – then telling them straight not to do something is what is needed.
In the world of social enterprise/investment/innovation there is a great deal of self serving guff. Playing the grumpy old man mentor is good for them – "hmm that's all very well you've won the Blogg Sprockets Social Entrepreneur of the Last Ten Minutes Award – but you can't even pay your rent next month. Get a grip".
The fact that I actually have become a grumpy old man adds authenticity to this process.
Why do I mentor? The old cliché which all mentors are supposed to trot out is that we get more back from our mentees than we give them. I'm not sure this is true for me – indeed if it is generally true then why do it? But no doubt spending time with younger, passionate, idealistic innovators determined to change the world can be very inspiring. I guess I will keep doing it until they stop collaring me.

1. Jerry Maguire (1996)
A sports agent learns who his friends are after setting up on his own while also finding love with Renée Zellweger. Appreciative audiences showed him the money to the tune of £175million at the box office.
2. Born On The Fourth Of July (1989)
Cruise earned his first Oscar nomination playing a disabled Vietnam vet in Oliver Stone's adaptation of former Marine Ron Kovic's autobiography.
3. Magnolia (1999)
In Paul Thomas Anderson's typically challenging ensemble piece about intersecting LA lives, Cruise plays a brilliantly sleazy self-help guru.
4. Rain Man (1988)
Teaming with Dustin Hoffman for this affecting drama, Cruise is a shifty car salesman trying to con his autistic brother out of a share of their dead father's estate.
5. Top Gun (1986)
In the movie that made him a star, Cruise is 'Maverick', a US Navy pilot in advanced flying training. It's a prime example of all that was good (and not so good) with the 80s action genre.

Japanese automobile giant, Toyota has a wide range of products on offer in India. They have introduced several new vehicles to their existing line up. The manufacturer aims at launching more vehicles in India that will attract more customers to their offerings.
Toyota India has now presented their sales report for January, 2015. The Japanese manufacturer announced selling 12,650 vehicles during the first month of 2015, however, during January, 2014 they managed to sell 10,910 vehicles. They have registered growth of 16 percent in January, 2015 when compared to January, 2014.
The Japanese manufacturer has also increased their export from India. In January alone Toyota exported 1,714 Etios models. The manufacturer reported combined sales of 14,364 vehicles sold domestically and exported in January, 2015. During January, 2014 the manufacturer managed combined sales of 12,440 vehicles.
N Raja, Director and Senior Vice - President, Sales and Marketing cautioned "The growth of 16 percent is also credited to the launch of the New Innova and all-new Fortuner 4X4 AT, in early January. We would like to thank our customers for their continued support and trust in brand Toyota and also welcome new customers for a great journey ahead."
He further added, "The effect of the increased prices on account of excise duty hike, is still impacting the market. We hope the Govt would reconsider the excise duty concessions in the upcoming Fiscal Budget, to achieve sustained growth in 2015. In line with the 'Make in India' campaign, structural reforms for the Auto sector are essential at this point in time."

confirmation before submission?Asked by pathologyassociates on April 24, 2014 at 06:06 PM
Just a quick question, is it possible to display a confirmation of the respondents answers before submitting the form?
We have made a supply order form and would like clients to see their order before submitting it.
I was thinking i could dynamically displaying fields based on their selection but just cheking if there is an easier way.
Thank you!
JotForm Support
Unfortunately, we do not have confirmation feature yet. This workaround might be of help, but this requires the form to be submitted first. http://www.jotform.com/help/98-Confirmation-Page-Tricks
Or you can take your form source code and apply custom script to achieved this. You will have the full control of the source code so you can probably apply script that'd display fields dynamically on the confirmation section.
If you need further assistance, let us know here. Regards!
Thanks, I have the confirmation in the thank you and auto send email.
I will def use the source code, I didn't that is what this feature was, amazing!!!!!

Seth Grahame (visit his website) is a genius. Yes, I am convinced of it. You know of my penchant for all things Jane Austen, and dear Seth breathed a different life into the classics by bringing in zombies and sea monsters. But, in my humble opinion, these pale in comparison to what Grahame did for Abraham Lincoln in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (watch the trailer) . He took the lanky, semi-goofy (yet highly respectable and heroic) president and make him a stone-cold, slightly hot vampire hunter. Who would have thought?
The premise of this book is that our beloved president's secret diary has been found by the writer, and he has unearthed his past as a vampire hunter. His hatred for the undead began during Lincoln's boyhood when his mother fell prey to a ruthless vampire. At this point, her young son swore he would get revenge upon these bloodsuckers.
As his horrible luck would have it, every person close to Abraham would fall prey to a vampire. This only fed his need to triumph over these creatures. Throughout his fight, Lincoln finds himself in elite political circles and finds that even the Civil War is but a vampire charade. He meets many historical figures including Edgar Allan Poe, who is so obviously a vampire (even if you didn't read it here, surely you expected it, right?). And, many true life events are woven throughout the vampire context. Genius!
(movie info here). I am beyond thrilled by this. I think the historical context accompanied by the vampire twist will be just as amazing to watch as it was to read. So, you've got time. Throw yourself into the questionable history of Abraham Lincoln. If you are like me, you'll find yourself thinking, "Well, maybe....maybe that's how it should be." And then you'll be embarrassed!
*This book is probably best suited for older teens.

The player learns of his plan and learns of a process that can free Beaties: by lining them up by color, their rectangular prisons will disentegrate and they will be set free.
GameplayBeatie Breakerz plays similarly to previous entries in the Panel de Pon series. The gridded playing field contains many tiles of different types which can be switched with the neighboring tiles vertically or horizontally. The goal is to match 3 or more of similarly colored tiles in a row to destroy the tiles and gain points. In addition, as tiles raise from the bottom and stack, the stacks of tiles grow taller and taller, and if the top row is filled for two long, the player will lose. In order to win, the player must remain in the game as long as possible while racking up points with better moves, such as matching more than 3 tiles at once.
Two tiles can be flipped with eachother freely; they don't have to make a match to be moved, and will remain in that position from then on. Tiles work with gravity, dropping if there are no tiles underneath them. Matching tiles will also clear out space for more tiles to fall in from above, allowing for mulitple matches to be made with one move. This will gain the player more points than simply making two moves. It will also spawn Blockies in opponents playing fields. Blockies spread over multiple tiles and can only be destroyed by adjacent tiles being matched.
Before the match starts, players choose items to use. These can be passive, giving effects throughout the battle, or attacking, which are triggered by the player in exchange for AP (attack points) during battle to harm oppoonents or help the player. Passive effects range from increases in point gain or decreased flip time. Attack effects can vary from spawning more Blockies or Bombies to clearing rows or columns of tiles. Items can be turned off in settings or temporarily disabled by certain phenomina. They can be purchased in the DubStore with Droppies, which are earned after every match depending on how well you did.
Battle Mode
The main mode of the game. Players compete in split screen or across the internet in a standard match. Settings can be changed freely except in Random Battle.
Players can locate each other online through their 3DS, Wii U or Steam friends list or using an ID and challenge them to matches. They can also enter Random Battles and get matched up with others online looking for a battle. Outcomes from these battles influence an online leaderboard of players, counting the players with the highest amount of points, wins, and other statistics.

Close on the heels of bagging the Samsonite business, Contract Advertising has been assigned the creative business for Shell Foundation, the CSR initiative of oil major Royal Dutch Shell. The win comes in the wake of a multi-agency pitch, which saw seven agencies in the fray. The account size could not be ascertained at the time of filing this report.
Confirming the development, Umesh Shrikhande, CEO, Contract Advertising, said, "The Shell Foundation tackles global poverty and environmental challenges. They have embarked on a global initiative, with India as the lead country, designed to address indoor air pollution – the toxic smoke from people cooking on fires and traditional stoves that kills more than 1.5 million people globally every year. This initiative will save lives, improve livelihoods and reduce CO2 emissions. Contract is proud to be a part of something that is making such a tangible difference. Contract has had a long relationship with Shell, and we are delighted to be taking it forward into new, but equally important territory."
It may be recalled that Contract Advertising also handles the Shell Lubricant and Retail business (Bangalore) in India.
The Shell Foundation, an independent charity endorsed by the Shell Group, invests in social causes supporting various NGOs and others to carry out projects reaching people across India. These programmes seek to leverage Shell's convening power as well as business and sector understanding and place these at the service of communities.
The programmes undertaken by the Shell Foundation include household energy and livelihood services for rural poor communities, decentralised power production from bio-mass sources, small-scale energy services for marginalised urban and semi-urban communities, non-smoking cooking devices using biomass fuel and consumer financing systems for solar home devices.
These programmes reach out to people in several states across the country. In addition, the Shell Foundation has supported watershed development and village institutions in Udaipur district, Rajasthan, and organic cotton farming and fair trade practice in the Kutch district of Gujarat.

Power flushing increases heating efficiency
Written by itsryan21 on July 8, 2016
London central Heating systems, that use hot water circulation, will often have deposits and sediments that come from the minerals in the water. These will coat the pipes and reduce their capacity to carry water. This can affect the efficiency of the heating. This efficiency can be maintained if the sludge and sediments are removed from […]Tags: central heating, london, power flush

Vidyadhara(s) (Sanskrit: विद्याधर, Vidyādhara, literally "wisdom-holders") are a group of supernatural beings in Hindu mythology. They possess magical powers and dwell in the Himalayas. They also attend God Shiva, who lives in the Himalayas.[1] They are considered as Upa-devas, semi-gods.[2] Vidyadharas also appear in buddhist sources.[3]
In Hindu epics
In the Hindu epics, Vidyadharas are described as essentially spirits of the air. They are described as doing different activities in the epics like gazing at human prowess with astonishment, strewing flowers watching a combat, rejoicing with music and laughter, crowned with wreaths and fleeing with their wives from danger. They possess great magical powers like the ability to diminish their size. They are endowed with epithets describing them as "doers of good and devoted to joy". They also live in Gandhamandhana mountain and other Himalayan mountains with Kinnaras. They are also described residing on Mount Krauncha, on Citrakuta where Rama saw Vidyadhara women playing, in the hills of Malabar and in the Khandava forest. They are also seen in Kubera's court, headed by their leader Chakradharman and in Indra's palace under Vipracitti. Jain legends describe Vidyadharas as evil beings and Vipracitti is described as a demon. A third leader of the Vidyadharas is described to the wise Jambavan.[4] In the epic Mahabharata, Vidyadharas are described as following Indra with other semi-divine beings to the serpent-sacrifice of Janamejaya.[2][4] In the epics, the women of the Vidyadharas, called Vidyadharis are described to possess great beauty, and were victims of kidnapping by demons like Ravana.[4]
In Puranas and other texts
In Agni Purana, they are described as wearing garlands in the sky and mentioned with other semi-divine beings like Yakshas and Gandharvas.[2]
In the Bhagavata Purana, Citraketu is described as the king of Vidyadharas.[5] It also tells about a cursed Vidyadhara called Sudarshana.[6] In various references in the Purana, they are coupled with other semi-divine beings, who pray to god Vishnu for help or enumerated among the many creations of God.[7] The Vidyadhras with siddhas are said to have milked Mother Earth (Prithvi), who had assumed the form of cow by using sage Kapila as the calf and collected different yogic mystic powers (siddhis) and the art of flying as milk in the pot of the sky.[8]
In Valmiki Ramayana, Sundarkanda Verses 1.22 to 1.26 describe the plight of Vidyadharas and their women following the pressure exerted on Mount Mahendra by Hanuman while taking his position in his attempt to leapcross the ocean. [9]
Gunadhya is said to have composed seven massive stories about Vidyadharas, then to have destroyed the first six stories when the king rejected them, retaining only the seventh story — of Naravahanadatta — which became the Brihatkatha written in Paishachi language. This work is not extant, but three adaptations exist in Sanskrit: Brhatkathamanjari[10] by Kshemendra, Kathasaritsagara by Somadeva, and Bṛhatkathāślokasaṃgraha by Budhasvamin. Kathasaritsagara presents some stories about Vidyadharas like Devadatta (a Brahmin boy who acquired Vidyadhara-hood),[11] Jimutavahana,[12] Muktaphalaketu [13] and Naravahanadatta (who became an emperor of the Vidyadharas)[14]

I'm Andy 19 years old. Gay to those that need to know. 145 lbs. (66kg) 5'10" (178cm) tall. Slim smooth body. I'd tried a few jobs, mostly low pay with no prospects. I wanted to make lots of money quick. Someone told me working in the oil industry was a sure way of making some.
Yeah the works hard, conditions can be dangerous and involve being away from friends and family for long periods, weeks and months at a time. The working hours are long and you have to be physically fit, hardworking and able to work continuously for long hours without tiring easily. Sometimes working outdoors in undesirable conditions.
High paying job plus Housing and food, all laundry taken care of. T.V, Internet, gym and all types of entertainment free. Working with "REAL MEN". "LET'S GO FOR IT!"
I shared a dorm with 2 other guys Rod and Steve, they had both been working in the oil industry for some years. Rod was 28 years old, 200 lbs. (91kg) of solid muscle 6' (183cm) tall Latino, married with 2 kids, another on the way. Steve was 27 years old 180lbs. (82kg) Athletic build, 5'11", (180cm) Canadian, Married with 1 kid. Both were roughnecks, a slang term for a person whose occupation is hard-manual labor working on oilrigs. Both were physically fit. We were on a 6-week tour that if work demanded could be longer. The good side being that after 6 weeks we would have 4 weeks off. The working hours could be 8 hours plus, they can be day or night.
I was new to the oil industry I was lower than a roughneck I was a roustabout. I'd got to earn my roughneck status.
After my shifts during the first week I would fall exhausted onto my bed and not wake until it was time to get ready for work. As my body adjusted and my stamina improved I got to be less exhausted and needed less sleep.
Rod and Steve knew one another and they looked on me as the newcomer. I was easy going and able to blend in with them I needed too they were both dominating characters, Rod being the Alpha male. 3 men living together and no females on site lead to some mood swings and tension, being the newcomer I was expected to give way.
Lack of female company and their carnal pleasures, they concentrated their frustration out on me, both verbal and physical. What started out as play sometimes got serious. Rod would wrestle me to the ground then stare into my eyes before letting me go. I had seen those same looks in the eyes of guys that were about to fuck me.
They both relaxed more towards me eventually, more so Rod. I had noticed that Rod was checking me out. He would watch me getting undressed for the shower etc. I would make eye contact and immediately look away, he didn't he continued to stare at me. Even though it was scary I found it a turn on to be watched by him.
Sometimes I was able to observe them from the corner of my eye, when they stood talking to one another naked after a shower toweling them selves dry. Rod had a good muscle toned smooth body, hairy ass and legs. As he toweled himself his dick and hairy balls swung between his hairy legs. Steve was more of a bear. Hairy chest light covering of hair on parts of his back and shoulders. Hair snaked from his belly button down to a mass of wiry pubic hairs. As I observed them my body would tighten sending sensations of delight up and down my body. Sometimes Rod would stand naked and dry himself in front of me, stroking his dick and grinning. Steve would look at me then look at Rod and laugh, he knew that Rod was teasing me. I wanted that freedom to look. I hadn't told them I was gay.
Sometimes I'd lie on my bed and make out I was asleep, the stuff I saw and heard Wow! One time I saw Steve jacking off while chatting to his wife on the Internet.
Another time Rod thought I was asleep. He was lying on his bed. I could see he had his hands down his boxers and was playing with his dick. His dick was tenting in his boxers. He looked over towards me checking that I was asleep, then he arched his ass up and slid his boxers down. His dick sprang up, he held it in his hand and pulled the foreskin back revealing his glistening glans. A thread of precum hung from his dick slit. He now and then looked over at me checking I was still asleep as he stroked his dick. The stroking of his dick became more vigorous as he got nearer to climaxing. He was trying to control his moaning so as not to wake me. Caution gave way to the overwhelming sensation that overtook his mind and body, he threw back his head and gave out an uncontrollable moan He squirted threads of pearly white cum juice high into the air, some falling back on his torso and face. Gradually relaxing he gave out a sigh. He looked over anxiously to see if I was still asleep. He wiped up the spilled cum juice off his torso and face with his fingers. Licking the juice off his fingers I was thinking man you should get me to lick you clean. He then pulled up his boxers turned over and went to sleep.
The days ran into weeks, I could tell by the mood swings of Rod and his jacking off that he was missing his carnal pleasures. He needed a warm hole to fuck.
A few days later I was taking a shower enjoying the warmth of the water easing the aches and pains of another hard day's work. I was all alone Rod and Steve were still working. I was shampooing my hair, my fingers were entangled in my hair, when the door to the shower suddenly opened, there stood Rod still in his working gear, helmet, dirty T-shirt, shorts and boots. His tool belt still around his waist. I froze as we made eye contact. He grinned at me as he looked at me with his lustful eyes. No female contact and his need to be satisfied; I had become the focus of his interest.
He reached out with both hands and stroked my naked chest. As soon as he touched me an electric pulse shot through my body, making me shudder and let out an uncontrolled moan. I made no attempt to move away. He moved closer massaging my nipples and moving his hand down to my groin. He reached over and squirted some shower gel into the palm of his hand. It was an erotic feeling to have his soapy hands sliding over my body down to my hips and butt. He just stared at me moving his hands over my now hard dick and between my legs.
He then placed one hand on the small of my back and moving the other up to the nape of my neck pulled me close into him. With a wide-eyed gaze he looked deeply into my eyes. "You want me to fuck you as much as I want to fuck you, don't you?" He asked. I was unable to speak I just nodded in agreement. My body was covered in Goosebumps; my legs and body were shivering with excitement.
The water cascading from the shower drenched his working clothes. His T-shirt clung tightly to his torso turning translucent revealing the contours of his muscles. I could see the silhouette of his hard 8" thick dick inside his tight fitting shorts.
He moved his right hand from my nape and ran his fingers through my hair. I lowered my arms and wrapped them around his shoulders he kissed me then licked down to my neck and shoulders. Stroking his hands over my nipples. Then sucking on each nipple in turn. Sending an ecstatic feeling though my body. I watched as he lowered his hand down to his shorts and unzip his zipper. His 8" thick dick sprung out. Rod reached over and turned the shower off. I then noticed Steve standing in the doorway of the shower stroking his hard dick. After you when you're finished with him said Steve.
Rod pulled his T-shirt off over his head; undid the button of his shorts and let them fall to the ground and stepped out of them. He took off his tool belt and threw it to Steve. He still had his boots on when he turned me so my back was to him. He held me around the neck firmly with his large rough callused left hand. I felt the fingers of his right hand sliding down the crack of my ass searching for my man pussy, it was going to be the substitute for his woman's vagina. He roughly ran his fingers around the rim taking his time to penetrate me with first one finger, two, then three. Spitting on his fingers and re- penetrating my man pussy several times. Loosening and lubricating my hole to take his big thick dick. My ass was arching up and pushing back hard as he finger fucked me. The effect it was having on me as he massaged my prostate sent ripples of delight up and down my body, making me moan out uncontrollably.
I could feel his fingers digging deep into the skin of my neck. He tightened His grip around my neck, squeezing so tight he restricted my breathing and the blood flow to my brain. I pulled at his hand to try and loosen his grip so I could breath. I became semi unconscious and my body went limp. He suddenly realised he was strangling me and relaxed his hold enabling me to gulp for breath. He was strong enough to hold me when my legs gave way.
He held his hard dick and leaned into me pressing the head of his dick hard on my well finger fucked pussy, he thrust several times until the head of his dick stretched my anus enough for his hard dick to slip in making me scream out. He slid his hand between my legs and grabbed my dick and balls, squeezing them tight in his hand so I could not pull away as he thrust hard and deep into me. Each thrust made me yelp; I could hear Steve laughing behind us as he looked on. I pleaded with Rod to be gentler. He said nothing. His one thought was to satisfy his needs.
The feeling of his hard dick sliding inside my gut gave me a feeling of ecstatic inner pleasure. One final thrust and I felt his wiry pubic hairs rub up against my ass cheeks. Pain of his dick stretching my anus and gut gave way to a feeling of intense pleasure. I thrust and gyrated my ass on his beautiful big hard dick.
Steve stripped and joined us. He faced me and stroked my naked chest with his callus hands making me shudder. Rod released hold of my dick and balls. Steve moved his hands down to my dick and balls, slapping my dick with his hands making it swing from side to side. He looked at me and said I'm gonna milk the sperm juice out of you while rod fucks you, then I'm gonna cover my dick in your cum and fuck you.
Rod slapped my ass cheeks and thrust hard into me. His hands on my shoulders he thrust slowly to start with until he became more excited and thrust more vigorously. Making me moan out loud. Steve was jacking me off and pulling on my balls. I could see the whites of his eyes as he anticipated me squirting my juice.
At times Rod nearly lifted me of the ground as he pulled all the way out then slammed his dick all the way back in. I could feel his hard nipples rubbing on my back lubricated by his sweaty body. Rod held me firmer and groaned out loud as he got near to squirting his load. Suddenly his whole body convulsed; he threw his head back and shuddered, his dick throbbed inside my gut. I could feel his warm cum juice squirting into my gut. As he thrust his cum juice spilled out my anus. I could feel Rods warm breath on my neck as he slowly regained control of his breathing.
Rod held me and pressed his body firmly into me. Steve smiled at Rod then looked at me. Steve stroked my dick more vigorously making me inhale and exhale rapidly. Come on gay boy squirt ya load. I was shaking and trembling. I gave out a loud moan as I climaxed and squirted my load. Steve held my dick as I squirted, directing the threads of pearly white cum over the shaft of his hard dick. Rod looked down and watched Steve cover his dick in my juice. Rods dick had softened by the time he pulled out of me and wiped it on my butt.
Steve indicated for me to get down on all fours and arch my ass up. Rod knelt in front of me and snaked his semi hard dick into my mouth. I sucked it deep down my throat. I could taste Rods juices in my mouth as his cock swelled in my mouth. It was getting harder and harder as he used his hips to thrust deep down my throat making me gag. My saliva was spilling out the corners of my mouth. Saliva was dripping off the shaft of his cock.
Steve knelt behind me and spread my legs wider apart. He stretched my ass cheeks exposing my sperm juice-dripping hole. Holding me firmly with one hand on my shoulders and the other on my hip. He slipped his hard 7" dick into my pussy making me yelp with pleasure. I squeezed his dick with my sphincter. I could feel the whole thick length sliding on all sides of my gut. A surreal moment being used and abused by two roughnecks.
Rod continued to fuck my face with his hard cock. Determined to feed me after breeding me. Steve roughly fucked my ass. They both started fucking me more vigorously as they got nearer to climaxing. Steve moaned out loud as he filled my ass with his sperm juice. A mixture of our cum juices spilled out my ass and ran down my legs forming a pool of cum on the ground.
Rod held my head firmly as his body convulsed; he thrust hard down my throat squirting jets of thick creamy cum down my throat. Some spilled out and ran down my chin. They slapped and stroked my body as their ball sacks emptied into me. Rod made me lick the cum up off the floor. They continued to fuck me for sometime until they were tired and had satisfied their lust. I was fucked by them everyday on that first tour.
Being a guy they did not need to show me the same tenderness and consideration that they did when fucking their wives; I was theirs just to fuck and enjoy.

Dashi Recipe
Recipe by Kevinf
Dashi is a quick all-purpose quick clear stock that is the heart of Japanese-style cooking. Made properly it is described as tasting of the sea. It calls for kombu seaweed (also called kombu), which is a thick dried kelp that is an essential ingredient in Japanese broths, and bonito flakes, pale pink shavings made from dried bonito fish fillets. Look for the seaweed and bonito flakes in an Asian grocery or the Asian food section of a well-stocked supermarket. Dashi is so quick to make that you can make it fresh each time you need it. Beth likes her version with one dried shiitake mushroom added.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 cups cold water
- 1 sheet kombu seaweed, 3 to 4 inches square wiped clean with a damp cloth and soaked in cold water in the refrigerator over
- 1⁄3 cup dried bonito flakes
Directions See How It's Made
- Place the water in a medium saucepan. Add the kombu. Bring to a low boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low (if the water continues to boil, the stock will not be totally clear) and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the bonito flakes and stir. Turn off the heat and let stand for 2 minutes to allow the bonito flakes to settle. Skim off any foam.
- Line a large colander or strainer with cheesecloth and set it over a large bowl; carefully pour the dashi through to strain it. Discard the kombu and bonito flakes. The stock is ready for use and can be refrigerated for up to 3 days, but is best used the day it is mad.

Not being female puts you on dangerous ground when it comes to attempting to empathise with a young girl with aspirations of making it as a driver in the male-dominated world of motorsport.
But one thing is clear: while seeing female role models competing on level terms with their male counterparts can only be positive, the patronising attitude of some, albeit well-meaning, observers is corrosive.
So many times, a female driver doing adequately, but no better than that, in a championship or race is raved about in terms more befitting of the second coming of Juan Manuel Fangio. It's great to see female drivers competing and there really should be more of them, but the implication of such disproportionately effusive comments is clear, not to mention destructive.

I have been dating this guy for nearly 2 years. I love him and we have been through a lot. He currently can't get any work he just moved to the same town. All we are doing is fighting and fighting non stop. Dad informs me tonight that I need to break up with him and find someone better (I worded it much nicer than what he did). My boyfriend does everything for my dad. My dad would ask him to jump and my boyfriend would say how high. ( if you get what I mean)..
I'm just confused, upset and sick of fighting.
Anyone know of any tips to help us stop fighting as much or relaxation methods or something.
As well as help me get my head around with what dad said.
Most Helpful Guy
I'd recommend just taking a break or something, i don't mean split up just a weekend away or something whichever you think will be best just you two or separate, looking for a job can be a really stressful time because he may think he's been lazy or sponging of you/family, just remind each other of what you've overcome so far and remember that you'll overcome this, if you feel a fight coming on don't fight back just relax try to ease the tension, say you want a drink or wanna go for a walk or something, i think instead of just accepting what your dad says you need to find out why he says that and also what's upsetting your boyfriend... just sit down and have a nice talk :)11|00|0

Indian left-handed batsman Gautam Gambhir has been signed by Essex for the remainder of the season. Gautam will replace Hamish Rutherford as Essex's overseas player.
The southpaw is expected to make his debut in the LV County Championship match against Northamptonshire on August 20.
"We are delighted with the signing of Gautam Gambhir who is a player with pedigree, which has been showcased on the biggest stages in cricket. He will no doubt bring his experience to the squad during an important stage of the season for us in the LV County Championship and Yorkshire Bank 40 competition," coach Paul Grayson said.
Out-of-favour Gambhir has played 54 Tests and 147 One-Day International for India before being dropped earlier this year.

The story begins in the year 2036, where the world has been overrun with monsters created by a mutant pathogen. At the fictional Chandler University two researchers named Sam Quinn and Mallory Beckett attempt to use an experimental time machine, to go back in time one year to prevent the accident that unleashed the plague.
However, the plan doesn't work out because the machine deposited them in what appears to be ruined version of their lab. Sam and Mallory soon learned that their time machine transported them to an alternate universe. In this world, Eden, an A.I designed to combat environmental degeneration with nanobots, went insane and triggered a second ice age. Sam and Mallory also learn that their machine gave them the ability to slide between worlds. During their stay in the ice world, Sam and Mallory use their sliding powers to help the citizens of a climate controlled compound with problems like a power outage, a food shortage, a broken water filtration system, and an attack by robots controlled by Eden. They also man a space ship built by the compound's scientists, to destroy the satellite housing Eden's CPU.
After destroying Eden, the scientists of the compound offer to use their advance genetics, to cure the mutants of Sam and Mallory's world. However, the scientists require the data form the experiment that created the mutant plague. After giving the scientists the data, disaster strikes! One of the scientists, a man name Fritz revels himself to a government agent from a world dominated by the Third Reich.
Fritz steals the data on the mutant plague so the Reich can use it to create new bio weapons. Sam and Mallory head to the Nazi world where they team up with a local resistance to regain the plague data and stop the government of the Nazi world's plans of inter-dimensional conquest.
Unlike many first-person shooters of the era, Quantum Slide does not have a strong emphasis on multiplayer, although cooperative LAN play between up to two people can be selected from the main menu. Instead, the focus is on the approximately ten hour long campaign. In this sense, it was the polar opposite of Quake 3, despite sharing a common engine.
Much of the moment to moment gameplay of Quantum Slide was similar to other shooters of the time. Using a combination of the keyboard and a mouse, players would move their character, either Sam Quinn or Mallory Beckett, in a three-dimensional environment, fighting with a variety of weapons, particularly firearms.
What truly distinguished Quantum Slide was its emphasis on switching dimensions in real time, sometimes mid-fight. At any moment, objects and enemies from alternate dimensions would be outlined in a light blue if they were part of the Ice Age dimension, yellow if they were part of the home dimension, or red if part of the Third Reich Dimension. Players could at any time switch dimensions by pressing the "Enter" key by default, cycling from Home dimension to Ice Dimension to Third Reich Dimension and back to Home dimension.
Objects held by players or in a player's inventory could be carried from one dimension to another. This was key for solving many of the game's puzzles and quests, as well as helping to defeat opponents. For example, before entering a firefight in one dimension, one could carry over a crate to use as cover, or take advantage of slightly different geography of dimensions to get behind an enemy.
The game's basic arsenal included the basic Fist for melee combat, the standard Pistol, the Shotgun, and a Machine Gun. These basic weapons had ammo that could be found anywhere. However, there were also three guns, one earned in each dimension, which can only be replenished using ammo native to their home dimensions. These include the home dimension's "Plague Gun," which deals splash damage over a wide area and can spread between enemies that get too close to each other; the Ice dimension's nanogun, which creates either stable or explosive blocks out of thin air; and the Third Reich dimension's Laser Gun, which can be charged with more ammunition to create a devastating attack.
Each weapon in the game has a non-combat use, be it something as crude as blasting open a locked door, something puzzle-oriented like making blocks to solve a physics puzzle, or igniting an explosive object quickly from afar.

Food Production Systems for a Backyard or Small Farm DVD
Genre: eLearning

Deaths of Youthful Athletes Raise Questions Over Testing
Published: March 14, 1994
(Page 2 of 3)
*Jackson Muamba, 17, Bayonne, N.J.: Crumpled to the floor while an opponent was taking a foul shot in a basketball game on Dec. 31. He had passed a physical in September. The autopsy report has not been released.
*Teddy Schalk, 12, Fayetteville, N.Y.: Died after collapsing during basketball practice on Jan. 24. He had an undiagnosed congenital heart defect known as coarctation, or narrowing of the aorta, according to an autopsy.
*Darnell Palmore, 21, Decatur, Ga.: Died while running laps during a workout with the football team on Jan. 27. The autopsy results have not been released.
*Tim Metzger, 17: Onondaga, N.Y.: Collapsed during a timeout with less than five minutes remaining in a basketball game on Jan. 31. He had passed a physical, but a week before his death, Mr. Metzger had complained to his coach about feeling dizzy, which can be a sign of heart or circulation problems. He died of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, Robert Howe, the Cortland County coroner, said.
*Bryan Brown, 15, Montgomery, Ala.: The eighth-grade soccer player collapsed during practice on Feb. 3. The autopsy revealed that he died of a rare congenital heart condition that was not detected during a physical in December.
*Devon Mills: Collapsed in the locker room following the game. He had recently transferred from another school, where he had fainted after practice in December. He was tested and cleared to play, but the North Chicago coach and athletic director said they were never told about the fainting episode. The autopsy report has not been released. However, a person familiar with it who did not want to be identified said hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was the cause.
The death of Mr. Mills prompted the principal of North Chicago High School, Jimmy Dew, to suggest tougher guidelines for screening, with a focus on more rigorous heart examinations.
He isn't alone.
In response to the two deaths in upstate New York in January, a group of specialists with the New York Heart Center in Syracuse have volunteered to create a pilot screening program for junior varsity and varsity athletes.
By December, both the American College of Cardiology and the American College of Sports Medicine expect to issue guidelines on screening and recommendations on when someone should be declared unfit to participate in sports.
In New York City, the Ashe Institute for Urban Health plans to launch a joint venture with the Center for Disease Control and the Public Schools Athletic League to determine whether black athletes are at greater risk of sudden death.
"Nobody can be declared to be totally safe," said Dr. Fananapazir of the N.I.H. "The question is how safe are they? And can we identify those who are at low risk?"
And Dr. Mueller's partner, Dr. Steven Van Camp, issued a caution, saying that 15 to 20 deaths per year might be inevitable. "It's difficult to improve on that figure," he said, "but we're making every effort to do so." The Lure For the Talented, Glory Beckons
Despite the efforts to improve screening, athletes are often the most defiant lines of resistance because their desire to compete may outweigh their health concerns.
"The rewards that are out there, particularly for a kid who has a high degree of talent, makes it difficult for a teen-ager with an abnormality to want to admit it," Dr. Kramer said.
Dr. Luther Clark, director of preventive cardiology at the State University of New York Health Science Center in Brooklyn, said there is another factor to consider: "Athletics is a dream that a lot of people have. You can do a lot with millions of dollars. That is the human side of the problem."
Tony Penny is an example of the pull sports can have.
He sued Dr. Milton J. Sands for $1 million, contending that the doctor had interrupted his career in 1986 by refusing to permit him to play basketball at Central Connecticut State University. Penny found a cardiologist who cleared him to play and, with the approval of the Connecticut attorney general, resumed his collegiate career. The lawsuit was dropped. In February 1990, Penny died while playing basketball in England.
Some athletes want to play so badly that they either hide or fail to realize the importance of their medical history.
Officials at North Chicago High School said they not only were unaware of Devon Mills's earlier fainting episode, but also did not know that a grandmother, Mrs. Gary, had a fainting episode in 1980 and a great-grandmother died of heart failure at age 60.
At William Penn High School in Philadelphia, where Joseph Marable died, the principal, Ben McGee, said: "We use the tragedy with Joseph to say, 'We're here, we want you to play, we want you to be aware of the risk and be honest with yourself.' But it's difficult. People hide things when they want things." Lack of Standards An O.K. Here, A Barrier There
Revealing what is hidden is the primary purpose of medical screening, but screening guidelines vary from state to state, sometimes from school to school. The lack of standards is cited as a major deterrent to effective screening.

Most vehicle owners know that preventative maintenance is key for keeping your car in good working order. If you want to maximize fuel efficiency, ensure optimal operation and avoid unnecessary repairs, the best thing you can do is take your vehicle in for regular servicing. This includes regular oil changes. At Meineke #1433 in Santa Fe, we recommend oil and oil filter changes at regular intervals. Consider it an investment in the lifespan of your vehicle. To learn more about oil change best practices, oil filter price comparisons and more, we invite you to contact us today.
What makes oil changes so necessary? To understand that, you first need to know a few things about engine oil. The oil in your car does a couple of important things. The first is that it carries heat away from your engine, which prevents the car from overheating. Second, the oil acts as a kind of car lube that keeps pieces of the engine from grinding together and causing harmful friction. The bottom line is that engine oil protects your engine from undue wear and tear so that you can safely enjoy driving in streets of . Make an appointment at if you live near .
A common question about oil changes is the question of how often they need to be performed. The short answer is that it just depends. In the past, complete oil and filter changes were needed quite regularly. Today, technology has advanced enough that oil changes are needed much less frequently. With that said, the specific interval at which you should have your oil changed can vary depending on the type of vehicle you drive. Consulting the owner's manual is a good place to begin, though as a rule of thumb, an interval of 7,500 miles or so is probably ideal. You can contact us at Meineke #1433 in Santa Fe NM for a more precise number.
The consequences of not changing your oil are major. First, the engine will overheat and the pieces can become warped or melted. Without the right car lube, your engine pieces will also cause corrosive friction. Sooner or later, your vehicle will simply stop working and you will be faced with the expensive prospect of engine replacement. Investing in routine auto maintenance in the form of regular oil changes is obviously a smarter move. To learn more, come see us at Meineke #1433 Santa Fe NM today!
Oil changes are a savvy investment in your vehicle. The cost of an oil change is nothing compared to the cost of an engine replacement. Additionally, there are ways to save on your oil change.
