Brembo Slotted Front Brake Rotors SAAB 9-2X 2005-2006
Product Details
Brembo Slotted Front Brake Rotors SAAB 9-2X 2005-2006
Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors are for drivers who want to improve the looks and performance of their vehicle's original braking system without having to change additional brake components. Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors provide excellent stopping power in everyday traffic, as well as high performance street and track driving.
Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors match the vehicle's Original Equipment rotor's dimensions and are fully compatible with its hubs, brake calipers and road wheels. Front and rear Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors are available to provide a matched appearance on all four corners of the vehicle, and employ one-piece vented or solid rotors depending on the vehicle's Original Equipment specifications.
Starting with select castings, Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors undergo the race-born practice of machining multiple shallow slots into the disc's front and rear surfaces to provide paths to disperse built-up heat and gasses and assist in refreshing the surface of the brake pads. Compared to cross-drilled rotors, machined slots have been widely adopted for racing and street use because they Minimize the cracking caused by repeated, high stress, high temperature brake applications. The slots are angled to use the rotors' direction of rotation to enhance their performance, which makes the rotors side-specific with left and right side rotors. Brembo Sport slotted brake rotors are sold in axle pairs and the easiest way to verify correct usage is to install the rotors on the side of the vehicle that results in the end of the slot nearest the outer edge of the rotor always contacting the brake pads first.
Fitment Note:9-2X Linear 2.5L

Wheeljack's and Rodimus' bios aren't as bad, but they're borderlining.
Megs and Sky-Byte at least were given decency in their bios, but they put the wrong Sky-Byte in the pic. That bio is clearly about RiD Sky-byte, while pictured is Wings Universe (G1) Sky-Byte, who never underwent any of the events described in that bio.
The voting has not started yet.Godzillabot Primal wrote:How are we supposed to vote? their pages have no buttons
No, Sky-Byte is as legitimate a choice as Waspinator was. He was a lovable character.Aluus wrote:So Sky-byte is this year's Erector?
I'm not pushing for him (as much as I am for Megs), but I will explain it. First off, it's no joke. Of all the characters to appear in the Robots in Disguise cartoon, Sky-byte became a fan favorite. He was a very likeable character, as he was hilarious and had a charming personality. He's another comic relief character like Waspinator, except with a little more of his head screwed on right. And thus, those who took a liking to him voted for him.TheForgottenTaxi wrote:Can one of the people pushing this Sky-Byte thing please explain the joke to the rest of us?
Um, EVERY single English-language Transformers bio has been written like that since 1984. They ALWAYS capitalize the important copyrighted/trademarked names and terms to show that they own them. It's what they do and have done for the past 25+ years.TheForgottenTaxi wrote:(Also, who the heck writes these things? They're nigh-unreadable, especially with all the random CAPITALIZED NOUNS.
Look again. it said "Rattrap", not "Ratbat".TheForgottenTaxi wrote:Since when is Rattbat Arcee's "great-nephew"? How could a Transformer even have a great-nephew?
In the Transmutate episode of Beast Wars, Rattrap exclaimed, "What in the name of my Great Aunt Arcee is going on here?!" It was meant to be just an in-joke to the fact that Susan Blu voiced Transmutate, but then a Fun Pub comic that took place post-Beast Machines had Botcon 2001 Arcee and BM Rattrap run into each other and have an awkward moment, as another joke reference to that line of his from before. Here, though, it's... not a joke.
Go watch the 1986 The Transformers: The Movie.TheForgottenTaxi wrote:And what does this even mean?
"Unfortunately, one time RODIMUS got in OPTIMUS PRIME'S way with disastrous results.")
AutobotMR2 wrote:The only entrant I have to question is Sky-Byte.....REALLY?!?!?!?!? Ah well, whoever gets in is all good with me. Alas no Devy...
Delicon wrote:Sky-Byte? That's gotta be a joke...he's not even one of the 500 most popular Transformers characters
Godzillabot Primal wrote:Can one of the people pushing this Sky-Byte thing please explain the joke to the rest of us?
He is one of the least liked characters in the TF universe, it isn't that funny a joke.
Blasphemy! To the gallows with all of you!T-Macksimus wrote:I'll vote for G1 Wheelie before I ever consider Sky-Byte. Seriously, who the slag even added that guy to the list???
My thoughts exactly.Dr. Heavy B wrote:Also, arcees bio?
Simon Furman is a definite must!RiddlerJ wrote:Still no word on the human inductees.
Should be Frank Welker and Simon Furman.

Washington City Councilman Matt Staniszewski has accepted a new job as community and economic development director in New Castle, a position that requires him to move to the Lawrence County city.
New Castle Mayor Anthony G. Mastrangelo said Saturday that Staniszewski also must undergo a physical examination within the next month before assuming the job paying $65,000 a year.
Staniszewski stopped short of saying he would resign from City Council, saying only he would "be investigating some property" in New Castle. He also said he understood Pennsylvania law requires local elected officials to live in the municipalities in which they serve, and the law is interpreted to mean a person's residence is where they regularly "sleep at night."
"Obviously, I will be weighing my options," he said.
Mastrangelo said Staniszewski was hired Thursday night in a 3-2 vote by New Castle City Council.
Staniszewski said prior to Thursday's New Castle meeting he had already accepted the job that morning only to claim later that afternoon the offer was taken off the table.
"It was pulled off the agenda to allow council to have more of a conversation. That's how it came to me," he said Saturday.
Mastrangelo declined to discuss the hiring Thursday.
"I didn't want to say anything," he said Saturday.
Staniszewski said New Castle council held an executive session Thursday night and put his hiring back on the table.
The New Castle News reported Saturday council there met behind closed doors for 25 minutes Thursday and then hired Staniszewski from among nearly 100 applicants for the position.
"They know I'm the best man for the job," he said.
Staniszewski's eight years on Washington council have been marked by controversy and clashes with other city officials. He is on the November ballot seeking a third term in office.

A 15-year-old who was about to be taken to the Jefferson County (Ohio) Juvenile Detention Facility escaped from the custody of Washington County sheriff's deputies around noon Thursday but he was quickly apprehended just two blocks from the courthouse.
The youth was found to be in violation of the terms of his juvenile probation when, instead of getting into the sheriff's car, he bolted from outside the old Washington County jail, now known as the Family Court Center on West Cherry Avenue in Washington. He ran down Brownson Avenue to West Wheeling Street, where he fell as he rounded a corner across from the City Mission, witnesses said.
Tom Preston, a mission resident who was in the smoker's pavilion, and Bill Naumoff, marketing director for the mission, said they saw a law enforcement officer use a Taser or attempt to use a Taser on the youth, who got up and continued to run down Brownson Avenue between the city police station and the parking lot of Hite Electrical Lighting and Supply, 85 W. Maiden St., where he was again taken into custody for the trip to Steubenville.
Naumoff said he saw the youth, who was wearing street clothes, in handcuffs that were attached at the waist.
Deputy Pat Puskarich said he was not sure if the teenager was boxed in with vehicles after police were alerted to the escape or if he was apprehended by an officer on foot.
"It was a last-minute thing," said Deputy Jerry Jericho, who said the deputy from whom the youth escaped happened to be in court on another case.
Juveniles are not to be shackled at the ankles unless they are a known flight risk, which, until Thursday, the youth was not. "The Legislature handcuffed us," Jericho said.
The youth will be charged with escape, Puskarich said, and, under the law that governs the rights of juveniles, he is to have a detention hearing within 72 hours. Puskarich, who has worked for the county since 1990, said he is aware of three or four other foot chases involving juveniles.
Tom Jess, deputy court administrator in charge of probation services, said the teen was adjudicated delinquent on a charge that "would have been a misdemeanor had he been an adult." Jess said he thought the adjudication dealt with a drug possession charge, but he was not sure what the controlled substance was.

When Gov. Bill Richardson announced on Jan. 10 that he was leaving the presidential race, the Obama and Clinton campaigns had only 3½ weeks to compete for this swing state's primary caucus. Lt. Gov. Diane Denish was immediately tapped to chair Clinton's state campaign and, under her leadership, Clinton won New Mexico by 1,076 votes, a virtually even delegate split. Going into the convention as the face of Hillary's New Mexico campaign, superdelegate Denish concedes that 2008 is Obama's year.
SFR: Everything changed when Richardson dropped out. How were you chosen to chair Clinton's campaign?
DD: If the governor wasn't going to be successful, she was always my next choice. I spoke with both Sen. Clinton and President Clinton during that process, so I was anxious to help because I thought, one, I would like to have seen not only a woman president in my lifetime but I would like to have to seen Hillary Clinton be president in my lifetime. The second thing is I thought she had a connection to New Mexico, unlike Obama, because he's newer, younger. The Clintons understand the value of the West; they never ignored us when [Bill Clinton] ran and I think that was important to me personally as an elected leader.
You didn't have much time to really get a campaign up and going here. What was the strategy?
You know, our primary responsibility was to get elected leaders on board, to help raise money and to work with Hillary's national campaign. We got a lot of elected leaders on board—State Auditor Hector Balderas, mayors around the state—and, frankly, we left the organizing primarily to people that were coming in from the other states.
The vote was split pretty closely in the end. Was that a surprise?
No. I think Obama's campaign took on a life of [its own] nationally. New Mexicans were just as susceptible to that. He's exciting. He's a great orator. He's smart. He's got some new ideas for the country. He represents a lot of things that I think people are looking for in 2008.
After the election, a legal battle broke out over the delegates appointed by [Democratic] Party Chairman Brian Colón, an undeclared Obama supporter. For a while there, things were tense between the Clinton and Obama camps. How did you interpret it?
Until the final results were in, in June, I think both camps were fighting very hard to make sure they had as many delegates [as possible] and that they were treated fairly by state party chairs, who were acting in a neutral capacity. I think that just creates a natural tension because as long as both people feel mistreated, the chairs are probably doing what they're supposed to do. But if anybody feels like they're being specially treated, maybe there is some favoritism.
Is the New Mexico delegation to the convention a Clinton delegation or an Obama delegation?
Now we're an Obama delegation, except for those who are pledged Hillary delegates. But I think we all know that Obama is the nominee. We have not been asked by Sen. Clinton to pursue anything to her benefit. I feel like we're going as a very united delegation.
Is there any resentment between the Clinton and Obama camps in New Mexico?
I would not be honest if I didn't think there was some disappointment among people who supported Hillary. I don't think that's necessarily unique to the delegation. I think there are a lot of people who have wished and hoped for Hillary's success at the national level, but I don't think there's any lingering personal resentment. I think we all know we have to be ready for November. The point is, we don't want John McCain to be president. That's what we're all fighting for.
In the last few days, we've received e-mails from Clinton supporters on the national level calling for disruption at the convention. Do you see New Mexico having any interest in that?
Not from my viewpoint. I certainly haven't encouraged that in New Mexico. I mean, if Hillary was saying she's going to fight it on the convention floor, then I would encourage people to decide what they wanted to do.
What events are you looking forward to most at the convention?
Monday, at the convention, is a day full of a lot of things for women elected leaders and I'm really looking forward to networking with women from across the country who have been successful, who are there to encourage young women to emerge and be part of the process. I always enjoy that daytime stuff that's not part of the television programming and I'm always interested to see who will be, let's say, the Obama of 2008. In 2004, when he made his speech, he kind of took off at that point. There will be somebody this time that will make a similar kind of trajectory.
Not Lt. Gov. Diane Denish?
It will not be Lt. Gov. Diane Denish. I haven't been invited to speak. I spoke at the last convention about early childhood. I'd love to punch that issue through again but I haven't been invited to do one of those three- to five-minute speaking engagements. I wish I could say I'm looking forward to the 75,000 people in Invesco Field, but I'm actually trying to decide whether or not to go and be part of the energy and the enthusiasm and not hear a single word of what he says or if I'm going to stay in my hotel room and really listen intently to every word of his speech.
One last question, then I can let you get back to constituent business. Should we practice calling you 'governor?'
Well, I would hope so. If the question is am I going to run for governor, the answer is yes, in 2010.
Could you be the governor before, say, the next legislative session?
Well, a lot of people are speculating on that. I'll leave that question to the governor.

After shockingly winning in Baltimore last weekend, the Steelers are playing with house money the rest of the season.
Or are they?
It was assumed by most that the Steelers would lose again last weekend in Baltimore, then get Ben Roethlisberger back for the stretch run.
But with last week's win, suddenly, the AFC North is now in play again for the Steelers.
Baltimore is a 2-point underdog today at Washington, then hosts Denver and the New York Giants before finishing the regular season at Cincinnati.
If the Ravens lose today at Washington, they could be in trouble.
While they might be slight favorites at home against the Broncos and Giants, would anyone be surprised if the Ravens lose one or both of those games?
If that happens, the regular season finale in Cincinnati just might be played with a postseason spot on the line.
The Steelers have three home games remaining, starting with today's game against the struggling San Diego Chargers, who won three of their first four games before dropping seven of their past eight.
The Steelers are n 8-point favorite to beat the struggling Chargers, who have never won a regular season game in Pittsburgh in 14 tries. With Roethlisberger returning, the Steelers should cover that spread.
They then finish up the regular season at Dallas and at home against Cincinnati and Cleveland. The Steelers will be favored in all of their home games and the game against the up-and-down Cowboys should be considered a toss up.
If the Steelers win all four, they will have a shot at winning the AFC North and getting no worse than a home game in the opening round of the AFC playoffs.
That's how important last week's win in Baltimore was.
Of course, the way this season has gone – where up is down and right is left – who knows what to expect?
Roethlisberger looked sharp in practice this week and always gets a little extra competitive – if that is possible for him – when he's playing against Eli Manning or Philip Rivers, the two quarterbacks selected ahead of him in the 2004 draft.
Look for another strong game from Roethlisberger in his return.
Take the Steelers to win, 24-13
Baltimore (plus 2) at Washington
Joe Flacco doesn't play well on the road, and an already banged up defense could be missing Terrell Suggs – though T-Sizzle has been more T-Fizzle this season while coming back from an Achilles injury.
Take Washington, 27-20
Dallas (plus 3) at Cincinnati
The Cowboys were fortunate to come away with a win over struggling Philadelphia last week. Cincinnati is not struggling.
Take Cincinnati, 26-21
Kansas City (plus 61/2) at Cleveland
Could it be a three-game winning streak for the Browns? Yep.
Take Cleveland, 20-13
Philadelphia (plus 71/2) at Tampa Bay
The Eagles gave it their best shot last week against division rival Dallas. Bucs need a win to stay in the playoff race.
Take Tampa Bay, 27-17
Chicago (minus 3) at Minnesota
Things are falling apart in Chicago, which has been ravaged by injuries.
Take Minnesota, 17-16
Houston (plus 3) at New England
New England has beaten Denver, but lost to Baltimore. Houston trounced Baltimore and Denver. But that was when the Texans were playing well earlier this season.
Take New England, 31-27
Miami (plus 10) at San Francisco
Miami rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill will have his hands full here.
Take San Francisco, 24-9
New Orleans (plus 41/2) at New York Giants
Now that the Saints are basically out of the playoff picture, they can try to play spoilers.
Take the Saints to cover in a 34-31 loss
Detroit (plus 61/2) at Green Bay
Detroit is dangerous but kind of like Dallas, plenty of bark, little bite.
Take Green Bay, 27-20
Arizona (plus 10) at Seattle
Seahawks are 5-0 at home this season, while the Cardinals haven't won since a 4-0 start.
Take Seattle, 23-10
Tennessee (plus 51/2) at Indianapolis
The Colts stole a win last week in Detroit. They won't need to steal one here.
Take Indianapolis, 24-14
New York Jets (minus 3) at Jacksonville

State police say a trooper was assaulted and stung twice by his own Taser while subduing a suspect in a domestic assault Friday in Amwell Township.
Trooper Joseph Ross was punched in the shoulder and also suffered cuts to his face and knee while apprehending Daniel L. Yocum, 42, outside his residence at 632 Waynesburg Road about 10:30 p.m., court records allege.
Yocum remained Monday in the Washington County jail on a string of charges, including aggravated assault of a law enforcement officer and disarming an officer, in what stemmed from a hang-up telephone call from his residence to Washington County 911, police stated in the affidavit.
Yocum already had fled when police arrived, and they took a statement from his wife, Heather, 39, who said he shoved her against a wall and scratched her son after she told him she was filing for divorce, the record indicates.
He phoned the house twice while police were there, and no one answered the calls. Police then instructed the son to call Yocum and tell him they wanted to question him at the barracks about the assault allegations, the court record shows. Yocum related on the phone that he was seconds away from the residence and would just return there to talk to police.
Police said Yocum was observed turning off Route 19 into the driveway in a pickup truck. Police said he had slurred speech, used obscene language and tried to flee on foot when they approached him.
Ross fired a Taser, but it did not make a connection. Yocum is accused of grabbing the trooper's Taser when he was being tackled to the ground. The trooper fired it twice, shocking himself and Yocum in the process before Yocum was taken into custody, the record shows.
Yocum also is charged by state police with making terroristic threats, simple assault, harassment, resisting arrest, driving under the influence of alcohol, harassment and disorderly conduct. He also is cited for careless driving, driving with a suspended or revoked license and failure to signal a turn.
He is in the Washington County jail on $75,000 bond set Sunday by District Judge Larry Hopkins.

Discovery of memory mechanism provides clues to how humans learn speech
Researchers at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, believe they have located a place in the brain where songbirds store the memories of their parents songs. The discovery has implications for humans, because humans and songbirds are among the few animals that learn to vocalize by imitating their caregivers.
In a paper published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, David Vicario and Mimi Phan of Rutgers, and Carolyn Pytte of Wesleyan University, report that songbirds store the memory of caregivers songs in a part of the brain involved in hearing. This suggests the auditory version of the caregivers song is stored first, and that it may serve to guide the vocal learning process. The paper is titled "Early Auditory Experience Generates Long-Lasting Memories That May Subserve Vocal Learning in Songbirds."

On August 17, 2017, at 12:41:04 UTC, scientists made the first direct observation of a merger between two neutron stars--the dense, collapsed cores that remain...
Seven new papers describe the first-ever detection of light from a gravitational wave source. The event, caused by two neutron stars colliding and merging together, was dubbed GW170817 because it sent ripples through space-time that reached Earth on 2017 August 17. Around the world, hundreds of excited astronomers mobilized quickly and were able to observe the event using numerous telescopes, providing a wealth of new data.
Previous detections of gravitational waves have all involved the merger of two black holes, a feat that won the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics earlier this month....
Material defects in end products can quickly result in failures in many areas of industry, and have a massive impact on the safe use of their products. This is why, in the field of quality assurance, intelligent, nondestructive sensor systems play a key role. They allow testing components and parts in a rapid and cost-efficient manner without destroying the actual product or changing its surface. Experts from the Fraunhofer IZFP in Saarbrücken will be presenting two exhibits at the Blechexpo in Stuttgart from 7–10 November 2017 that allow fast, reliable, and automated characterization of materials and detection of defects (Hall 5, Booth 5306).
When quality testing uses time-consuming destructive test methods, it can result in enormous costs due to damaging or destroying the products. And given that...

1 The Shed
113½ E. Palace Ave.
The Shed's red knocks us dead.
This Santa Fe institution serves a red chile sauce that's bright, fruity, intense and hot, exactly the way we like it. Blanketing a plate of enchiladas and seeping into a pile of pinto beans, this red chile reminds us why we live in New Mexico. How miserable an existence it must be to not be able to stroll over to the Shed for some meaty, tender carne adovada infused with the flavor of magnificent ripe chiles! How lucky we are to be here! Think of that the next time you order huevos rancheros with two eggs sunny-side up, and then let your fork gently pierce the yolks and watch the warm golden egg spill into the velvety red chile.
Have you ever poured the red over your steak or ladled it liberally into your posole? Oh you haven't, have you? Well order another margarita and get creative with it! Take some of that famous garlic bread, spread it with red chile and dot it with carne adovada. The Shed pizza!

Former Washington County Judge Paul Pozonsky collected a lump-sum payment of $200,851 and his first $7,956 monthly annuity payment in retirement benefits from the state a little more than a month after his sudden retirement last summer.
Pozonsky announced his retirement June 29, shortly after being stripped of his criminal cases by President Judge Debbie O'Dell Seneca amid reports he was being investigated by the state attorney general's office. To date, no one at the attorney general's office will either confirm or deny such an investigation.
Immediately following Pozonsky's retirement notice, the Observer-Reporter sought information through the right-to-know law regarding his state pension from the State Employees' Retirement System (SERS). Pamela J. Hile, deputy open-records officer for SERS, said no information could be released until Pozonsky formally tapped into his pension plan.
Pozonsky and his wife, Sara, moved to her home state of Alaska shortly after his leaving office but before their house in North Strabane Township sold for $410,000 in November, according to the Washington County Recorder of Deeds office.
Pension details were again requested by the O-R last week following questions about Pozonsky's controversial hire in October as a worker's compensation hearing officer with the Alaska Department of Labor in Anchorage at an annual salary of $80,000, as reported by the state's Department of Administration.
This time, Hile provided the information since Pozonsky chose to be issued a partial lump-sum payment and the first of his monthly annuity payments Aug. 10. Pozonsky was 56 at the time of his retirement. The average age at which state judges retire is 60, according to SERS.
Information provided by Hiles indicated the former judge's final average salary was $164,058.72 after serving nearly 28 1/2 years with the state, including 14 as a county court judge and the remainder as a district judge in Cecil Township.
The lump-sum payment made to Pozonsky represented all or a portion of his contributions to his retirement plan, plus 4 percent statutory interest compounded annually, which he elected to receive at retirement.
Pozonsky resigned Thursday from his Alaska post after media there questioned whether his family's political connections played a role in his hiring.
Pozonsky is the brother-in-law of Chuck Kopp, an aide to Eagle River Republican Sen. Fred Dyson, the newspaper reported. Kopp also was picked by then-Gov. Sarah Palin to serve as Alaska public safety commissioner but lasted just 14 days before resigning amid sexual harassment allegations from a former job.
Last week, Anchorage Daily News columnist Shannyn Moore raised questions about the hiring process for the position Pozonsky was given. The application process had been closed, candidates had been interviewed and a hiring decision appeared imminent when "the application process was re-opened, a new application arrived, and a late applicant, Paul Pozonsky, got hired," the column said.
"Personnel records, including information about an applicant's interview and selection process, are confidential" under state law, said Greg Cashen, assistant labor commissioner, according to an Associated Press report.
Pozonsky's wife is the former Sara Crapuchettes, whose brother is Kopp. She is the granddaugther of Alaska homesteaders, and her late father started Christian schools in the state. She and sister-in-law Trish Kopp, who also is an aide to Dyson, run a seafood business, Wild Alaskan Salmon Co.
Sarah Pozonsky recently recorded an album and is selling her songs on the Internet. Her husband sang backup on one of the songs.
She also has completed a documentary, entitled "A Fishy Tale," that examines the ill effects of fish farming. The documentary is set to be released this spring.
The Associated Press contributed to this story.

10. There has been a lot of speculation about which Florida juniors might leave early for the NFL Draft. There are four players who have sent in their paperwork — Sharrif Floyd, Matt Elam, Jelani Jenkins and Jordan Reed. (Nope, Dominique Easley did not). From everything I'm hearing, Floyd is gone. He'll likely be a first-round pick. Personally, I think he's the best player on this team. Elam is 50-50. He's leaning heavily on his brother, Abe, who is a free safety with the Chiefs. Reed probably will go out. He will be a bit of a project for an NFL team but the body and talent are there even if the focus sometimes wanders. And Jenkins most likely just wants to see what the NFL has to say. I think he'll stay. But you never know. Certainly, when you add a couple of departures to seniors leaving such as Mike Gillislee and Jon Bostic, Florida will take a hit, but with last year's recruiting class and the one Will Muschamp is putting together Florida isn't going away.
11. There has also been some speculation concerning Dan Quinn, the Florida defensive coordinator, possibly going to Florida International as the head coach, but I've been told that's not happening. And all the rumors about Andre Debose being off the team? Not true either. Debose suffered a knee injury and was healthy enough to play against FSU but didn't give the effort in practice. The word I get is that he had great practices last week and will be ready to go in the Sugar Bowl.
12. I really think too much was made of the fact Johnny Manziel is the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy. I mean, he's a second-year guy. I want to see a true freshman win it. And I really don't think there were many people out there who would not vote for him because he was a redshirt freshman. I just don't believe anybody thinks that way anymore. Then again, as I've said many times, there are too many Heisman voters who don't really pay that much attention to college football. Northern Illinois quarterback Jordan Lynch received as many first-place votes as Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller. That boggles the mind. At any rate, good for Manziel and it will be fascinating to see how he goes forward from here.
13. You knew some football program would take a chance on Bobby Petrino, but I didn't think he would have to wait for Western Kentucky to call. He actually will inherit a pretty good team and he won't be there long. But, Bobby, as long as you're going to try to rebuild your image, try being a little more likable instead of being a jerk all the time. OK? We're a forgiving nation and the transgressions that cost Petrino his job will be included in every story written about him for awhile. But his personality will have a lot to do with how people take to him, even in his own fan base. It does fire me up for next Aug. 31 — Mark Stoops vs. Bobby Petrino. And Sept. 7 — Bobby Petrino vs. Butch Jones. I know, let's get this season over first.
14. I watched a lot of NFL on Sunday and it seems to me that when you get to this point in the year that there are no secrets and the offenses struggle some in the first halves of games. It's just a theory. And it seems to me that a lot of guys are looking to not get hurt at this point of the season. Again, just a theory.
15. I keep getting this question — is Florida's basketball team this good or are the teams they are playing that bad? It's a little bit of both. I love the way this UF team is defending and they have been fun to watch. And as tough as the schedule looked on paper, FSU, Wisconsin and Marquette haven't looked very impressive. Still, Florida hasn't just beaten those teams, they've hammered them into submission. We'll see what happens at Arizona on Saturday. It's not just that the Wildcats are pretty good, it's never easy to go across the country and play a game that starts at 10 p.m.
16. Apparently, there is a lot of stuff going on in baseball. Someone wake me up when the rosters are set. I know I sound old and crusty, but I liked baseball a lot more when there would only be a few moves in the offseason and you knew who was on your team.
17. The Tweet of the Week comes from an Auburn fan website called Fearless and True — "From Auburn to Texas Tech to Cincinnati. Tommy Tuberville is the Benjamin Button of college football." Made me laugh out loud. Tuberville was never comfortable at Texas Tech, especially after the school hired Kirby Hocutt to be its athletic director. Hocutt had turned Tuberville down for the Miami job when he was the AD there. Tuberville tried to get in the mix at just about every school that had an opening this season. Still, it's a strange deal to see a guy go from Tech to Cincinnati.
18. I'm getting my other eye free of cataracts today and I will be so excited to be able to see the colors of New Orleans with two good eyes. Need some good downloads for the trip so I pulled these — "Waving at Airplanes" by Guided By Voices, "Yeah Yeah" by Willy Moon and for the old school in you "Here Comes The Night" by Them.

Q. I bought a home that doesn't have natural gas service. It has an oil-fed boiler with a tankless coil for hot water that appears to be failing. It looks like our hot water options are an indirect water heater (very expensive, uses oil and keeps the boiler going all summer); a hybrid electric tank (inexpensive with rebates, but noisy and may make downstairs living space too cold); or an electric tank (cheap to buy but maybe expensive to run). What do you recommend? One plumber recommended the indirect but quoted us about $4,000 to install it.
A. An indirect heater at $4,000 is way too expensive, in my opinion. How about a new coil? That is certainly possible, but sounds like the same as indirect water heater. I don't know what you mean by hybrid electric, but an ordinary 55-gallon electric heater may be a good buy; inexpensive and surprisingly not expensive to operate.
Q. We have a large picture window in the dining room with a great view to woods and ponds. It faces south and gets a lot of sun. Is there a surface coating that will cut out the glare and heat and protect our rug and furniture but be invisible from the inside?
A. Contact a window tinting or window film company, in the yellow pages under window tinting, or Google window tinting. There are many ways to treat your windows for protection of all kinds, including an awning. Tints and films can go outside or inside. I think that inside tinting, protected from the elements, would be the best.
Q. Could you please tell me if it is safe to remove wallpaper from a horsehair plaster wall using a steamer? There is one layer of paper that is probably more than 20 years old. I have removed some of the paper by spraying it with hot water and fabric softener and then using a plastic scraper. I'm worried that the steamer may pull down the plaster.
A. Yes, I think it is safe to use a steamer to remove wallpaper from horsehair plaster, because a steamer uses less water than simply soaking the paper. If it was put up 20 years ago, it is vinyl coated, so you will have to score the paper to allow steam to penetrate it. And, if you plan to paint or repaper other rooms, it might be worth leaving the paper up, if it is in good shape and tight, allowing you to repaper or paint right over the old paper.

Vacation with lots of culture and nature
Poland | Poland scores with holidaymakers in respect to its good price performance ratio as well as with having one of the most lovely and untouched nature areas in Europe. In the last years Poland has been discovered by many vacationers and consequently become a popular travel destination. You can have a great holiday along the Baltic Sea coast with seemingly never ending fine sandy beaches. Pretty coastal resorts and a virtually untouched natural landscape at the Bay of Pomerania and Gdansk Bay ensure ideal holiday conditions.
But the heartland has a number of great regions which are waiting to be discovered: How about a holiday home around the Masurian Lake District or in Kashubian region? Here you will find great conditions suitable for cycling tours and hiking trips. The further you travel down to the southern part of Poland you will notice the landscape becoming hilly and mountainous. Close to the border with the Czech Republic and Slovakia the Beskids, Sudetes and Krkonoše (also referred to as Giant Mountains) offer lots different forms of nature as well various recreational activities both in the summer and winter. Many regions in Poland are characterised by magical forests which are home to some rare species in Central Europe like wolves and moose. In the eastern parts of Poland there are for example the Carpathians where you can experience untouched primeval forests.
Next to a great landscape the many Polish cities and towns are worth seeing. Krakow for example impresses with its lively old town and interesting sights. Both Warsaw and Gdansk can look back on a long history steeped in tradition which is reflected in countless sights and monuments. Further interesting towns also not to be forgotten are Wrocław, Poznań and Szczecin.
Choose a holiday home in Poland that meets your individual holiday requirements and spend some relaxing days in beautiful natural surroundings! atraveo provides more than 1,500 holiday apartments and houses across Europe.

Nothing ever changes in Ravnica. For countless millennia, cities have covered the entire plane. Eventually, they ran together into one vast megalopolis -- a patchwork of grand halls, decrepit slums, ancient ruins, and layer upon layer of stonework structures. Of the world's countless civic centers, one looms above all others: the City of Ravnica, a metropolis so vast that its name has become synonymous with the world itself. It is here -- amid mazes of streets and towering gothic spires -- that the guilds vie for power and control. Ravnica: City of Guilds features 306 cards, with randomly-inserted premium cards.

On Sunday my husband and I had one of our infrequent dates and left the kids home alone. We arrived home later than we had anticipated, so we all went straight to bed.
Monday morning, I woke up late, woke the kids up late, and then remembered that I hadn't done any of the cleanup that should have been done the night before. The sink was full of dishes, there were cookies still out, and the living room was a disaster. Still, the dog needed to be walked, the kids needed their breakfast, and I needed coffee. Unfortunately, the coffee pot was hidden under some bakeware, some papers I needed to sign, and of all things, a toboggan. You've been there, so don't judge.
I tried to hold it together. I cleared a spot on the counter where I could prepare some eggs. I shifted the stack of things off of the coffee pot so I could brew some. I sent the dog outside with the first child who showed up downstairs dressed.
I could feel myself getting heated up when my girls started bickering in the bathroom. (There is a five-foot mirror and two sinks - there is room for both of you!) I swallowed the irritation and reminded them it was almost time to catch the bus. When I walked through the living room, I discovered the pile of cups and bowls from their dinner that they never bothered to take to the sink, and shouldn't have been there in the first place because they aren't supposed to eat in there. My temperature rose another degree.
Then I saw an old towel on the couch. The kids said the dog lay on the towel on the couch last night. My argument that the towel should not have been there because I used it yesterday to dry off the dog's muddy feet held no merit. Neither did my argument that the dog is not allowed in the living room or on the couch. Suddenly, no one knew how the towel had gotten there, or who had let the dog in the room. My thermometer ratcheted up higher.
When I packed my son's lunch, I finally hit boiling. You see, my son spent much of the first six years of his life vomiting, not sleeping, and suffering from eczema that doctors couldn't figure out. We eventually discovered it was a dairy allergy. That has meant not only drinking soy milk and avoiding cheese, but also avoiding anything containing whey, cream, real butter, or casein - a milk protein - as well. That means he can't eat chocolate, ice cream, many baked goods, any food that has no ingredient list printed on it and most flavored potato chips. I have to pack his lunch for school every day.
So when my kids served themselves dessert during their living room picnic with the dog, what did they choose? The only dairy-free cookies in the house.
I finally yelled.
I grounded them all and told them they will be eating dairy-free for awhile so they can gain an appreciation for what my son goes through. Then I said I loved them and sent them to the bus stop.
Then I started cleaning up the house. If that doesn't cool me down, I'll eat a handful of those cookies that are still on the counter. You've been there, so don't judge.

Pennsylvania's casinos continued to have a positive economic impact on the state's horse racing tracks last year, but the state bureau that controls gaming revenue acknowledged Wednesday that the racing industry still faces significant challenges.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board released its annual "Racetrack/Casino Benchmark Report," which concentrates on the impact that Pennsylvania's casinos have had on the state's horse racing industry.
A portion of revenue generated from slot machine gaming is earmarked for the horse racing industry to accomplish the intent of the Pennsylvania Race Horse Development and Gaming Act.
According to the PGCB, in 2012, more than $272 million in slot machine tax revenue was generated for the Pennsylvania Race Horse Development Fund.
Of this amount, about $224 million was earmarked for the horse racing industry. The fund is used to enhance purses, assist breeding operations, provide health and pension benefits for horsemen, and benefit the agricultural industry in Pennsylvania.
"Revenue from legalized slot machine gaming in Pennsylvania is helping to fulfill the legislative objectives by enhancing horse racing and breeding programs, preserving thousands of jobs and providing a positive impact on the state's agricultural economy," said PGCB Chairman William H. Ryan Jr.
According to the report, findings for 2012 include the following:
• The amount of tax revenue generated for the state Race Horse Development Fund decreased slightly in 2012, by about 1 percent.
• In addition to revenue generated for the Race Horse Development Fund, racetrack casinos operators invested more than $7 million in 2012 and about $46 million since the casinos opened in 2006 to improve the stable and backside areas of their racetracks.
• The number of days in which live racing took place and total numbers of races held in Pennsylvania both increased by about 1 percent in 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.
• Total dollars wagered on Pennsylvania races in 2012, referred to as the live racing handle, was 12 percent higher in 2012 compared to 2011. Live racing handle in 2012 was the highest to date since casino gaming began in 2006.
Meadows gains big
The Meadows Racetrack, which is marking its 50th anniversary in June, saw significant gains in its handle, as well as in payoffs for winning, according to Mike Jeannot, president of Meadows Racing, who provided the following results for 2012:
• The average daily handle was $501,550, a per-card increase of more than $65,000 from 2011. The half-million dollars was far above the $365,886 race-day average at all U.S. harness tracks last year, according to the United States Trotting Association.
• The average win payoff was $12.78 for the year, up from $12.66 in 2011.
• In June, the track showed off six state-of-the-art barns, the result of a $6.25 million investment made by Meadows owner Cannery Casino Resorts of Las Vegas. Jeannot noted that the track charges horsemen rent for the stables, which it reinvests into backstretch improvements.
The track also introduced several green initiatives, including the recycling of frying oil from the casino's food service operations for conversion to biodiesel fuel for the track's equipment.
While The Meadows' 2012 racing results were highly positive, the PGCB's report also posted some notes of caution about the future of the state's racetracks.
"… While the racing industry is realizing positive benefits since gaming commenced, it continues to face significant challenges to remain successful," the report reads. "Although live racing handle increased in 2012, handle generated through simulcast wagering within Pennsylvania continues to decline. This decrease in wagering creates significant challenges for the racing industry and is evidence of a decrease in demand for wagering on races held outside of Pennsylvania."
Jeannot, who acknowledged that off-track betting in Pennsylvania has taken a hit due to the proliferation of gambling outlets, noted that in The Meadows' case, "we more than made up for" OTB declines with higher numbers from live wagering, account wagers and on-track wagers in 2012.
In a breakdown of the distribution of slot machine gross terminal revenue, PGCB noted that 45 cents of each dollar is retained as earnings by the licensee; 34 cents goes toward residents' property tax reduction; and 12 cents is contributed to the Race Horse Development Fund for a variety of purposes. Another 5 cents is distributed for an economic development and tourism fund; and 4 cents goes to the local government share.
However, the report notes that in fiscal year 2012-13, $5 million was scheduled to be transferred from the Race Horse fund to the Farm Products Show fund.
It also notes that beginning in January 2010, 34 percent of the Race Horse Development Fund was allocated away from the racing industry and transferred into the general fund. The percentage fell to 17 percent on July 1, 2010, and will continue at that rate through June 30 of this year, when the transfer is currently scheduled to expire.

For those who think college fraternities are just like the one portrayed in "National Lampoon's Animal House," I'll have you know that we never built a Deathmobile to ruin the homecoming parade.
Nor did we start a food fight in the cafeteria. At least, I didn't.
We did have a lot of fun, though, during those few years in our late teens and early 20s. Now, it looks as if all we'll have are the memories.
Over the weekend, a fraternity brother sent an email inviting a bunch of us to dinner and a trip to the casino, "to make up for not winning the Powerball." Our friend Mike replied:
"Sounds like fun. Count me in. We can celebrate the end of Delts at IUP as well."
Mike is one of the alumni who are on the board of the corporation that owns the Delta Tau Delta house. He reports that the current fraternity brothers apparently have given in to the inevitable.
"They have a deadline of Dec. 7 to get leases signed, but to date no one has even contacted the property manager about a lease. We told them that after that date, it is being rented to the general student population and they cannot hold any social functions at the house. My guess is that Nationals will pull the charter when they meet in January unless a lot happens in the next month."
That's a big "unless," considering the semester is about to end, followed by a long break for the holidays.
If the national office revokes the IUP chapter's charter, that means the end of an institution along Indiana's Seventh Street since the Ford administration.
I could write a book, of course. But I'd be sued. There would be no way to change enough names to protect the not-so-innocent.
All joking aside, most of the fellows I know from my era – let's say the '80s – have gone on to be productive members of society. Our alumni have the wherewithal, for example, to have raised enough money to build a new house on the site of the old one when it finally became uninhabitable a few years ago.
The new place is nice, but for us comparatively elderly guys, it hasn't been quite the same. So the demise of the chapter doesn't seem as devastating as it could have been.
Still, I can speak for a lot of brothers when I say the fraternity represents a major part of our lives. In my case, I met the future Mrs. Funk at the house. Which makes a lot of sense, considering my main attraction to the place was an opportunity to meet girls.
Perhaps I'll take my friends up on the email invitation, and we can raise a glass: Long live DTD at IUP.
Then we can start a food fight.
Harry Funk can be reached at email@example.com.

London-based designer Aaron Probyn discovered his passion for furniture making when as a young man he worked as a carpenter. However, it was while buying and selling midcentury lighting and furniture at age 20 that Probyn realized he had an emotional attachment to design, form and materials. After earning a degree in product and furniture design from Kingston University in London, Probyn explored home design in the retail world before launching his own business.
Today, he designs and creates from his bright, airy 1930s industrial studio. Overlooking London's rooftops and neighboring reservoirs, the space has a dedicated workshop that allows him to be spontaneous in his design process. With a keen eye for proportion and detail, Probyn describes his aesthetic as material-driven and softly minimalist in form: "I believe there is something very primitive about design. As human beings, we feel the need to make objects that enrich our lives physically and emotionally. I have a very physical approach to design, and I enjoy playing around with new materials and finding new processes."
