Does your desktop look plain and boring? Get Icon Changer! Icon Changer is a software application that makes changing icons fun and easy. It's a hassle-free way to personalize your desktop without having to open up any computer manuals. Simply click the icon you want to change, point at the one you like and that's all. Change icons to make navigation easier, to group similar applications together, or merely to customize and spice up your desktop.
But it's not all for fun and games. Have you ever worked with Word or Excel files? Then you know that all the documents created with these (and other) applications "inherit" the icon from the program from which they were created. But what if you have some Word documents for a school project, some for business and some for legal correspondence?
Would it not be great to label all of these files differently, so you know what each document is for, instead of trying to guess from the name or folder location, or worse yet, reading it. This same method can be used to distinguish folders.
Where are you going to get all these icons from? Don't worry! Icon Changer automatically scans for all icons available on your hard-drive and extracts them even from executables and DLL files. Cursor and bitmap files are supported as well. You'll be surprised by how many amazingly cool icons you already have on your computer hard-drive and didn't even know about.
The program can be activated in a variety of ways, including via contextual menu. The interface of this application is Explorer-like, making it easy to navigate and use. Other advantages of Icon Changer include file type filtering options, recursive directory search, easy access to favorite icons, and automatic resolution adaptation.
Best of all, Icon Changer is free to try. Get your copy now!

I work for a website that Rockstar games buys advertisment space from. I have a business relationship with a boxing fan at Rockstar that has become friendly enough to share some information with me.
I have every reason to think that this gentleman is truthful with me and I think he probally gets good info from someone he knows well from the 2k/venom team.
I knew 2 years ago when everybody said it was going to a Rocky game that it was not, but an actual "real" boxing game. I wish I could spill the beans on the list of fighters in the game but I don't know that much .
I have been told about the chance of this game having 200 fighters. I am so cynical for something that good happening I am still having trouble myself believing that much good news. Anyway, I have been told that the welterweight division is stacked for this game, and I have been assured that this game has plenty of fighters from all the other promoters, even King's most bitter rivals.
Long story short, things are looking good for the hardcore boxing fans/gamers. We just need to support this game as a community to show 2k (or any other company)that they will not waste time and lose money making a sim style boxing game.
You should be able to place your reservations at Gamestop for Prizefighter starting this Friday, the 25th of January. Let's get those pre-orders going!

CORVALLIS -- Oregon State University basketball coach Craig Robinson has been fired.
Sports Illustrated first reported the parting, which was confirmed by the school late Monday morning.
I want to thank Coach Robinson and his family for their contributions to Oregon State University, said athletic director Bob DeCarolis. This was a difficult decision, but after further evaluation, I believe it is in the best interests of our student-athletes, our basketball program and our University.
During a phone call with him on Thursday, I acknowledged to him that I had changed my mind, De Carolis said. Despite my sincere want for Craig to be successful at Oregon State, as the days moved on since March, it became clear to me that wanting it to work with Craig as our coach was not good enough. Oregon State University, our student-athletes and our loyal supporters deserve more than a simple desire. They deserve success.
When Craig got here, it was not every good, De Carolis said. Yes, he got us to a different spot, which was good, but we just feel that to get to the next spot, we need a fresh start.
De Carolis said he hopes to move quickly in finding a replacement since Robinson's firing came well after the season ended.
We want to move quickly, but we want to make the right choice, he said. So fast but deliberate.
Robinson had three years left on his contract and SIreports that Oregon State will have to pay him $4 million for the departure. He was 93-104 at OSU, 39-69 in the Pac-12. The team never made the NCAA tournament in his six seasons.
Just last month, DeCarolis gave Robinson a vote of approval, issuing the following statement.
Coach Robinson and I have met multiple times in the past two weeks, and he has presented me with a plan that will move the Oregon State men s basketball program forward to achieve the goals that this university supports.
Our goals in every sport are to win a conference title; to play in NCAA postseason events; to compete with character and integrity; and to help guide our student-athletes to graduate and succeed in life.
I m looking forward to watching Coach Robinson continue to build our program. He is a man of great character and someone who represents Oregon State University with integrity. I ask for your continued support of Beaver basketball.
Robinson is the brother of First Lady Michelle Obama and his teams made regular trips to Washington D.C. both for basketball games and to spend time with her and President Barack Obama.

It is said that body scrub is very essential for the summer season as it helps exfoliates the dry skin which makes your body rough and dry. For some of us, we do not like the use of some body scrubs sold in the market therefore the natural essence of body scrubs is wonderful and safe.
Here are some natural body scrubs for the summer skin care, this season.
1.Milk – Milk alone helps one to feel great, it removes the dirt and oil from the face which gives you that dull look. For the summer season , the best way to use milk is by adding to it rice husk and massaging it on your face and body in circular movements to remove dead cells. Wash off with warm water when dry.
2.Lemon – Lemon juice is a great cleaning agent for summer skin care. It is said that lemon has a lot of benefits when it comes to skin and body care. Lemon juice mixed with grape juice, mint and sugar and massaged on to the face can help get rid dead cells. This facial treatment also helps to keep the face tight and clear. When applying this mixture on the face, make sure that you do not apply around the eyes as it can cause an eye allergy.
3.Sugar – It is said that this sweet agent is one natural body scrub for the body before you take a shower. Use a minimum amount of essential oils added to the sugar so that it can be easily applied onto the body. Gently massage your body with the contents and you will see the dead cells easily being removed. Make sure you have a sponge bath to remove the extra sweet essence of this natural body scrub.
4.Oatmeal – The yummy oatmeal can also be used as scrub to remove all the dirt particles on the body for summer skin care. The benefits of using this natural body scrub, Oatmeal , helps in making the skin glow also preventing one from sweating on the face.

Opera tells story of love, murder
Wednesday, Jun 18, 2014 08:28 am
Gowns and tuxedos won�t be necessary for those wanting to take in the opera next week.
The Calgary Concert Opera is bringing Rigoletto to the Okotoks United Church stage June 24 at 7 p.m. in a less formal affair that puts up-and-coming opera singers on the stage. Rigoletto is an Italian opera written by Giuseppe Verdi in the mid 1800s that tells a story of love, intrigue and murder.
�It�s probably one of his best operas, the most dramatic,� said Barbara King, Calgary Concert Opera co-owner. �It is quite the opera.�
Calgary Concert Opera was spearheaded by King and her husband Chris Gieck in 2011 to give opera singers more venues to perform. King, a professional opera singer, said up-and-coming singers rarely have the opportunity to land roles in large opera companies, so this was her way to get them on stage.
�A lot of singers needed a new venue to sing at,� she said. �We are giving them an opportunity to sing in front of the audience. It gives them experience at the same time.�
Less experienced singers are often supported by more renowned performers. De Winton resident Uwe Dambruch, an internationally renowned bass-baritone opera singer who was born and raised in Germany, is playing the role of the murderer Sparafucile in next week�s performance.
�It�s so hard for these young singers,� said Dambruch. �Honestly, you can�t make a living in Canada by singing opera.�
Dambruch said the situation is much different in Germany. The country boasts 87 opera houses that are supported by the city and government, he said.
�There you are a full-time singer,� he said. �You get monthly paid, health insurance and everything is covered.�
Dambruch�s family made a living as opera singers. His father was a baritone and his grandfather a conductor. Dambruch attended his first opera at age five.
While performing opera in Germany years ago, he met and later married Calgary dramatic soprano singer Frances Ginzer, who is now retired, and the pair moved to De Winton in 2003.
Dambruch met King eight years ago and was asked to take on a major role in Rigoletto to serve as a mentor for the less experienced singers.
�I hopefully give them expertise to inspire these young singers and maybe to set standard for other performers,� he said. �It�s an opportunity for young singers to perform major roles, to take opera to towns like Okotoks.�
The Calgary Concert Opera also brings the opera to an audience who might not otherwise have the opportunity to watch one, said King. The performances are held in churches, making tickets more affordable and the atmosphere less formal and more intimate, said King.
�It�s a good thing anyway just for audiences in Calgary and Okotoks to give them another venue to see operas at a reasonable price,� she said. �The acoustics are perfect, they have the grand piano set up already. They usually have stages. Everybody loves it because of the closeness of it. They can literally see our faces. It�s so intimate.�
Rigoletto is the Calgary Concert Opera�s fourth performance in Okotoks, which King said is gaining in popularity every year.
�We�ve got such a fantastic response,� she said. �That�s why we keep coming back to Okotoks.�
King said operas present a unique sound that isn�t heard in any other genre.
�They can�t get over how we can produce the sound, how we can get into character,� she said. �We resonate. That�s our technique. We learn to project in a way so that it�s still pleasant to the ear, but we do have a lot of intonations.�
King said her company performs concert operas, which means less focus on staging and more on song.
�We are all born with different types of vocal cords, the instrument itself is our bodies,� she said. �For me I started out as a soprano and now I�m a mezzo soprano so my role is Maddalena.�
To help audiences understand the story of Rigoletto English translation will be posted on a screen and a narrator will explain what is occurring before each act, said King.
Tickets to see Rigoletto cost $25 and are available at www.calgaryconcertopera.com, by calling 403-719-4525 or 403-617-3554 or at the door (cash only). Children ages 12 and under are free.

Chris Kubasik describes himself as a "pretty patriotic" kind of guy. He professes a strong love for his country and it shows: he's a devoted Boy Scout leader and has for years supported the USO, for which he now serves on the Board of Governors.
So when an opportunity arose for this former partner to join Lockheed Martin Corporation, the world's largest defense contractor, he saw it as a natural fit and a "rare opportunity" to have a career while at the same time serve his country.
Kubasik started his 17-year career with EY in the Washington, DC, office. While he served clients in a variety of fields, including banking and health care, it was his aerospace and defense industry clients that captured his attention the most.
Additionally, the thought of being on the "front lines" of an organization dedicated to global security greatly appealed to Kubasik. By the time his then-client Lockheed Martin offered him the company controller job in 1999, he was ready to enlist.
Since joining Lockheed Martin, Kubasik has served in a number of capacities, including Chief Financial Officer and running the corporation's Electronic Systems business.
This past January, he was promoted again, to the newly created position of President and Chief Operating Officer. He acknowledges that the COO position "isn't as common as it used to be."
However, he calls the move "strategic." Predicting that the defense industry will be relatively flat for the next few years, Kubasik believes that the company's dedication to operational excellence — which includes streamlining the company, focusing on affordability and delivering on commitments to cost and schedule — will differentiate Lockheed Martin from its competitors and lead to long-term success.
With US$44 billion in revenues, Lockheed Martin designs and builds some of the most advanced defense systems on the planet. These include the stealthy new F-35 Lightning II fighter jet, the ultra-sleek Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) and the Orion crew space exploration vehicle — the human space flight system capable of safely transferring astronauts to and from the International Space Station (ISS), the Moon, Mars and beyond.
But it's the people in these jets, ships and space vehicles that Kubasik is most concerned about. It's a lesson in respect he learned through his years of working with the USO.
"A lot of people think of the USO and they automatically think 'Bob Hope Special' — but the USO is much more than that," says Kubasik. "It's all about supporting our troops both abroad and at home."
He remembers his first exposure to the USO.
In 2005, he was part of a team that gathered at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, to assemble 20,000 care packages to send to troops in Afghanistan. "It was just an amazing process," he reflects.
Since then, he has even enlisted his parents and their fellow retirement home neighbors to write and send thousands of handwritten notes expressing appreciation to US troops deployed around the world. The USO asked him to join its Board of Governors earlier this year.
For former partner and Lockheed Martin President and COO Chris Kubasik, respect means never losing sight of the company's ultimate customer. For Lockheed Martin, "that's the men and women who use our products in theater."
For former partner and Lockheed Martin President and COO Chris Kubasik, respect means never losing sight of the company's ultimate customer. For Lockheed Martin, "that's the men and women who use our products in theater."
For Kubasik, respect means never losing sight of the company's ultimate customer. For Lockheed Martin, "that's the men and women who use our products in theater.
Remembering the people who are making the sacrifice — people who are leaving their families and sometimes giving their lives — that brings significance to what we're doing here."
He believes that kind of respect also helps him and the organization work harder to deliver a quality product on time and within the customer's budget: "It's what keeps us at the forefront of our jobs every day," he adds.
Kubasik thoroughly enjoys being part of Lockheed Martin and feels the career move was right for him. Surprisingly, however, he cautions against following too closely in his footsteps.
His advice to current EY people is "not to become alumni if you don't have to," adding that he never fully appreciated what a great organization EY was until he left. But when people do leave, he strongly suggests they stay in touch with their former EY colleagues.
"They're invaluable," he adds. "They can give you advice from outside of your organization and make you a better executive over time." Some of the people he remains in close contact with are retired partner and former firm Co-chair Ed Kay and current partner Bob Bedingfield, who hired him.
"Both were terrific mentors, and I hope I've been able to pay forward some of that to others I've mentored over the years," he says.
Away from the job, Kubasik unwinds by golfing, working out and attending sporting events. Sports-wise, he roots for "all things Maryland," including his University of Maryland Terrapins, the Washington Wizards and, of course, the Redskins.
He also enjoys spending time with his family, including his wife of 25 years, Jane, and their four children, Kevin, 22, Lindsay, 20, Brian, 18, and Sarah, 16.
Kubasik's personal philosophy, whether at work or home, is to simply do the right thing — a sentiment echoed in both Lockheed Martin's and EY's core values. For him, that includes truthful negotiations with clients, honest career discussions with employees, candid and timely responses to stakeholder inquiries, or simply making time to listen to an issue one of his children is wrestling with.
"Most of us know what the right thing to do is. You gather as much info as you can in the time you have and make the best decision you can. And most of the time," he smiles, "the answer is surprisingly obvious."
EY refers to the global organization, and may refer to one or more, of the member firms of Ernst & Young Global Limited, each of which is a separate legal entity. Ernst & Young Global Limited, a UK company limited by guarantee, does not provide services to clients.

After months of legal wrangling over a contempt-of-court charge against Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins, he learned Tuesday what punishment he might face: a $500 fine.
State District Judge Levario held Watkins in contempt March 7 after he refused to testify at a hearing looking into prosecutorial misconduct allegations oil family heir Al Hill III made against Watkins. Hill contends he was indicted on mortgage fraud charges as a favor to Watkins political benefactor Lisa Blue.
When Watkins refused to take the stand in Levario's court, he said his work as a prosecutor is privileged and he should not be compelled to testify about his decisions. Legal experts said he made a good argument, but also gutted it by then allowing his subordinates to testify about the case at the hearing before Levario.
"He is wasting the court's time," Tom Nowak, a defense attorney considering running against Watkins as a Republican, said Tuesday evening. "There is not a legal expert except Craig's own team that will say Craig is in the right."
Because many lawyers involved in the case already work for the government and don't get additional pay for their involvement in the contempt proceedings, it's impossible to tell how much has been spent on the case. But the final tally is likely to be many, many times the fine.
But a spokeswoman for Watkins, Debbie Denmon, said the DA's fight against the contempt charge isn't about the possible punishment. Denmon said Watkins is standing up for prosecutors' ability to keep their work product private.
"This is not about $500. This is much bigger than that," Denmon said. "At the end of the day, we don't believe she had the legal authority to hold him in contempt.
"It is bigger than money."
Levario was told by another judge — who must determine whether the contempt charge will be upheld — to clarify her original order, in part by explaining how Watkins could be punished. Levario could have asked for jail time in the new order filed Tuesday afternoon, but instead opted for the maximum fine.
Since the contempt charge was handed down, numerous hearings — including a failed attempt to recuse Levario from the case for being biased — and hours of legal work have gone into the fight.
The next step is for state District Judge Bob Brotherton to hold a second hearing, in which he will attempt to hear arguments about whether to uphold or dismiss the case. On Tuesday, he set the hearing for Aug. 23.
Brotherton is hearing the case because officers of the court like Watkins automatically receive a hearing before another judge when held in contempt as a check on judicial power.
Hill is the great-grandson of oilman H.L. Hunt, and Blue had represented him in a dispute over part of the family fortune. But Blue and other attorneys sued Hill over legal fees. When he was indicted by Watkins' office on allegations of mortgage fraud, Hill argued, the indictments prevented him from taking the stand during the civil trial over the legal fees. He lost the fight over the fees.
In Levario's court, Hill's attorneys wanted to ask Watkins about conversations he had with Blue about their client.
Special prosecutor Ron Poole, the first assistant district attorney in Cooke County, could not be reached for comment. But he has previously said that Levario was correct to order Watkins to testify about his "very close relationship with Lisa Blue."
Blue said in a deposition that Watkins mentioned the Hill case to her in phone calls.
Poole has said Watkins spoke with Blue about the mortgage fraud case against Hill, but did not tell Hill about it, "when his office policy is to notify people [who are] under investigation. What is the reason for that?"
Attorneys involved in the case have said the FBI is investigating dealings between Blue and Watkins. FBI agents also obtained a court order from Levario for sealed documents in the case.
Watkins refused to answer questions in Levario's court. He could have asserted his Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself — as Blue did — but he did not.
"We believe he was within his right to exert privilege," Denmon said. "We look forward to Judge Brotherton hearing the case and getting the case thrown out."
But Watkins did allow two of his prosecutors to testify. Those prosecutors would not have been privy to conversations between Watkins and Blue about Hill.
Nowak said Watkins should take responsibility for his decision not to testify and accept the $500 fine. Nowak is a former prosecutor who was fired by Watkins in 2010 after attending a Republican watch party during an election where Watkins, a Democrat, was seeking a second term.
Nowak said that the special prosecutors should fight Watkins' attempts to drag out the contempt case and take attention away from the reason why Watkins was held in contempt.
Denmon said Watkins is merely "fighting for what's right" and if Nowak "does not understand that, he should definitely stay out of the race or put his boxing gloves on."

Greg Vinson
Greg Vinson reveals what it's like to be a professional bass angler!
View Transcript
Glenn: Hi, I'm Glenn May with BassResource.com, and with me today is Greg Vinson. Greg, it's great to have you here today.
Greg Vinson: Good to be here, Glenn.
Glenn: Greg, when you're getting ready for a tournament, how far in advance do you start prepping for it and what types of things are you doing?
Greg: Well, Glenn, I qualified for the Classic in June last year with the Elite Series. So, I immediately began preparing. I started looking at the conditions, gathering maps, doing research on the Internet because I knew I was going to have to do a lot of preparation, spend a lot of time for this tournament. This is a huge waterway, and so there was a lot to learn and I wanted to be ready when I got down here and got those three to four days of practice to be real specific in what I wanted to look at. I start as soon as I know the tournament is on the schedule.
Glenn: What types of things are you looking for?
Greg: This tournament, I knew by looking at the timing, obviously we could tell there was going to be a full moon. We knew it would either be a late pre-spawn or possibly a spawning tournament. Looking at it now, it stayed pretty cold, so a pre-spawn type deal. Looking for areas where those fish are going to move in to spawn. If they're not already in there, then you're looking to the places where they're going to stage. For down here, that's areas that are cut off from main river flow current and areas that are going to be a little bit warmer because they're away from that main river flow.
Glenn: When you get on a body of water and it may not be here, let's just say you've prepped for a tournament, you've done your research, you get to a body of water for the first time, what do you do? Do you spend more time looking on your graph and looking at areas, or do you actually start fishing in the area. What's your game plan?
Greg: First and foremost is understand the period that you'll be fishing in, the pre-spawn, spawn, post-spawn, summer, winter, spring type deal. You want to know what situation the fish are going to be in when you get there and that will help you determine by looking at a map where the fish are more likely to set up. So, that's the first thing I do is I go over a lot of maps, pick out areas that match up, that have potential, and then I don't fish when I first get there.
I do a lot of riding and getting a feel for the types of cover that are available and the types of areas that have potential to produce when the tournament comes around, not when I'm there for practice.
Glenn: During the tournament, let's just say things don't pan out the way you thought they would, what's some of the first things you do?
Greg: Typically, especially in the springtime tournament, more often than not that's due to weather, and experience will teach you how to adjust to changing conditions in the weather. The spring is probably the most vulnerable time of the year when that can catch up with you. Over time I kept a log for seven years. When I first started fishing I kept a fishing log. I kept every detail I could possibly imagine in that fishing log, and that helped me a lot when I got into lakes that I didn't know as much about. And it helped me change conditions a lot better.
Glenn: Well, this is your second year as an Elite pro, and this is your first Classic you've been in. Do you feel any added pressure to win the Classic this early in your career?
Greg: No. I just want to give myself every opportunity I could to win, and I didn't want to look back on this tournament and say I didn't do as well as I wanted to because of lack of effort. So, I put every effort into this tournament to be as prepared as I possibly can, use every resource I possibly can to do well. I think I have a pretty good game plan, and the rest of it hopefully I'm doing the best to control the variables that I can. There's a lot of things in this tournament that could happen that are totally out of our control, but I'm definitely going to do my part.
Glenn: Excellent. Awesome. When you hit the Elite Series, what was one of the most surprising things to you that you weren't expecting?
Greg: Wow. It's pretty surprising to look up and see I was fishing against my heroes at the time. It wasn't too long ago that I was watching the guys on ESPN. I had fished bass as a co-angler in 2004, and I was totally blown away that I was getting to fish with people like Shaw Grigsby and Skeet Reese and so many other guys. Just a few short years later, essentially I am one of those guys.
As the season went along, I realized that it really comes down to fishing. They're guys and they're putting their game plans together, and they're having to execute just like I am. The more I'm prepared, the less I'm overcome by my surroundings and these big names around me.
Glenn: What's the best part of being a pro?
Greg: The best part is I get to fish for a living. I grew up fishing since I was four years old. I would catch anything that would bite, and I'm getting to do something that I love to do for a living. It's certainly hard work, but it's work I absolutely enjoy, and I hope to do this for a very long time.
Glenn: What I'm going to do right now is called the shameless plug moment, and that is, you can talk about your sponsors all you want to or if you want to say something to your family, your friends, or maybe to your fan base out there. If you want to say anything at all, what's on your mind, the floor's yours.
Greg: I've got to say a big hello to the guy that I call the Magic Man. Some of you may know him. This is J.J. Pollack of JJ's Magic. He's a big fan, a big supporter and a big sponsor of mine. An absolutely great guy, right up there in Georgia just outside of Atlanta and all my friends and family that are coming down for the tournament. I've repeatedly been getting texts, e-mails, phone calls with everybody providing a lot of support and that really means a lot.
Glenn: Absolutely. J.J. is a great guy. He's a lot of fun to be around.
Greg: He's a card. He works hard. He makes a great product, and it really has helped me do well in some tournaments. It definitely helped me get here.
Glenn: Fantastic. Well, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Greg Vinson. I'm Glenn May with BassResource.com.

A father beats his daughters with an electrical wire for "twerking" and posting it on Facebook.
This father found out that his daughters made a "twerk" video which they posted on Facebook. He then punishes them by beating them with a wire. The father can be seen lashing the wire on the girls' legs and body.
The most disturbing part is that the whole thing was captured on video.
Do you think the father went too far by beating his kids with a wire?

Comedy is the new indie rock. That's the impression you might get if you perused Sub Pop's roster, which currently houses three comedians (David Cross, Eugene Mirman and Patton Oswalt) and a musical group who specializes in humorous lyrics and genre spoofing (Flight of the Conchords). It's a bold move by Sub Pop, as comedy albums generally pall after two listens, even on DVD. Rare is the comedian who can create a full-length worth multiple listens/viewings. Thankfully for people who like to laugh and still respect themselves in the morning, Patton Oswalt is that rare talent.
Currently starring in the hit film Ratatouille (he voices Remy), Oswalt will likely become filthy rich soon, but one senses he'll stick with this standup shit because that's what he was truly put on this godforsaken orb to do. Onstage, the Burbank-based TV actor/scriptwriter/humorist comes off as charmingly cantankerous and animated. His targets aren't extraordinary—KFC's Famous Bowls ("a failure pile in a sadness bowl"); his nave, teenaged love for Phil Collins ("that guy's totally punk rock—he's got sneakers on with a suit!"); the current administration (he modestly proposes that Bush and Cheney be slaughtered at a monster-truck rally with Aerosmith blasting over the PA); and Cirque du Soleil (why do old homophobes flip over the gayest thing he's ever seen?)—but his treatment of them is. Surprising observations keep springing out of typical liberal biases; hoary humor tropes get twisted into quirky new shapes. So gratifying and unhackneyed are Oswalt's scathing riffs that by disc's end, you want to buy him a bottle of wine that's beyond your price range.
If you like this story, consider signing up for our email newsletters.
You have successfully signed up for your selected newsletter(s) - please keep an eye on your mailbox, we're movin' in!
Oswalt aims his caustic wit as often at himself ("My geekiness is getting in the way of my nerdiness") as he does at worthy objects of scorn. What elevates him over most of the so-called "alternative comics" are his eye for absurd details and ability to dissect outrageous situations and phenomena with uncanny precision and hilarious elaboration. Beware, though: After experiencing Werewolves, you will never be able to get the image of "Jon Voigt's pink, glistening ball sack" out of your mind.

Greg C.wrote a review of MontBell Thermawrap BC Insulation Jacket - Men's on December 19, 2010
Great jacket, but.........
Love the Thermawrap BC Jacket. Fit is good (perfect length) with the sleeves being just a bit long (I'm 6'2" 195 lbs and am wearing the XL). Sleeve length would be OK if the sleeve elastic was tighter. The stretch material on the sides extends up the back of the shoulder just enough to give great freedom of movement and no binding. I am wearing the jacket for everyday use.......and skiing with and w/o a shell depending on the temps. For me it's the perfect combination of warmth and breathability. Love the zippered pockets.
The only fault I've found is that the stretch fleece material on the sides,sleeves, and collar is showing signs of wear rather quickly. The main nylon material seems durable.......but the stretch fleece needs to be a better material ( stronger elastic and more resistant to abrasion). Great jacket, but we'll see how long the stretch material lasts.

El Salvador's Gastro-Embassy's right by the pier...
Aphrodisiacs at a farmers' market?
That's what they say about pupusas with the loroco flower buds in them.
Seems loroco only grow in Central America. So I keep looking wherever I see the word "Salvadorean" pop up.
And here, paydirt! I'm standing beside a flapping flag that looks like it says "Pup USA." But oh no.
It's "pupusas."
Great. I come up to where Armando and Maria are working away cooking up a grill-load of these little round pastry things.
Look like tortillas, but thicker, and with, like, swollen bellies. Think gordita, but not quite so gorda.
I spot flavors like spinach, cheese, frijoles, pork, and a few others.
"What are the most popular?" I ask Armando.
"Pork," he says, "and Spinach."
They're busy. I have to make a quick decision.
"A spinach and a pork," I say, without thinking.
I pay over…think it's eight bucks. Maria tosses my two onto the hot plate.
That's when I remember about the danged loroco effect I've been looking out for.
"We do have them," Armando says. "You can loroco flower buds imported up here, but they're hard to find."
And yes, the legend of the qualities of the loroco flower, or quilite ("edible herb") is alive and well. Aphrodisiac, and a pretty herby taste.
Meantime I bite into the hot and hot (like, hot temperature, straight off the grill, plus a muy picante hot dipping sauce) pupusas.
Pork paste is plentiful, and the spinach one's surprisingly flavorful, with that fresh espinaca taste that has you thinking Greek.
Plus you get a pile of Salvadoran curtido,a lightly fermented chopped cabbage with red chilies and vinegar.
Actually, what I like most: the pastry. Yum. Corn flavor, and best of all, the texture: crispy outside, soft inside.
The word "pupusa" comes from the Salvadoran Pipil language. Kinda cousin of the Nahuatl language. Makes you think of "papoose," which is Algonquian, far away from Central America. But maybe that idea of something wrapped up all cozy made it across the continent.
Whatever, people have most likely been munching just like I am, on the same things for three, four thousand years.
Armando and Maria haven't been around quite so long. They've been doing this on the farmers' market circuit for five months. First time I've seen them.
But not the last. I'm coming back, hunting down the loroco pupusa. Strictly for the taste, you understand.
More like this:
IB market seems like it has some pretty good eats!
It has more eats than produce, I swear. Haven't tried the Indian curry stand or the huge corn on cobs with sabroso fixin's yet. Also waiting for that loroco...

UPDATE: Justice Michael Dambrot lifted the publication ban Tuesday on identity of victim Carina Petrache, 23, a Ryerson University criminology student. The story has been modified to include her name.
TORONTO -- A killer slit a university students throat from ear to ear and set her on fire, a jury heard Monday.
In her opening to the jury, Crown attorney Jennifer Stanton said Farshad Shawn Badakhshan, who was dating the victim, trapped Carina Petrache, 23, in his basement bedroom at his Toronto home by lighting a fire on July 2, 2010.
Badakhshan, 30, has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder. He contends hes not criminally responsible because he suffered from a mental disorder at the time.
Stanton said some of Petraches friends didnt approve of her relationship with Badakhshan, describing him as jealous and controlling.

Now, Baker has recorded her first Christmas album, and it too benefits from her unique way of shaping a song to the good will of her intentions. Working with her friend and keyboardist Barry Eastmond, Baker has developed arrangements that borrow from her family's experiences during the year's most personal of Christian holidays.
Immediately, Baker veers toward the quirky and the so-unlike-her-or-so-we-thought boisterous as she converts "Frosty the Snowman" into "Frosty's Rag," a ragtime version of the song too often derivative of Burl Ives' traditional version in which he inhabits the character. Well, Anita Baker can't really do that, but she can sing her observations about the snowman. Aided by clarinetist Gene Lobionco, Baker goes for the soul, combining a barroom feel with her blue-note-ness in which she uses the written melody of a tread-worn path for further exploration, rather than following a Mapquest route for unswerving adherence. In any case, "Frosty's Rag" is one of the happiest and most carefree recordings yet of Baker, perhaps an omen of recordings to come.
Baker includes some originals on Christmas Fantasy, including her and Eastmond's "Moonlight Sleighride," which involves jazzier Christmas glad tidings as Bakers sings its spare lyrics that basically consist of an invitation to a sleigh ride. However, Eastmond's R&B-like vamping provides the opportunity for Baker to delve into the soulful type of song that she does best, Christmas-oriented only by its title, words and packaging. More thematically expressive is their "Family of Man," which presents universal inclusiveness in the face of tragedy and loneliness as "We've got a union / Beyond all color and race / Each of our journeys is unique / But leads up to a common place." And so, we receive the wished-for synthesis of Baker and Christmas emotions as she perceives the essential meaning of the holiday and delivers it in a way that no other singer could imitate. A Christmas wish may be that one or all of Baker's originals become Christmas classic heard during the incessant week-before-Christmas airplay every year.
As far as the familiar Christmas songs go, Baker, as executive producer, recruits several like-minded jazz musicians, such as: Joe Sample on "Christmas Time Is Here," with an introduction that suggests it will lead into "Just the Two of Us" instead; The Yellowjackets on "O Come, All Ye Faithful," with Russell Ferrante, in a turnabout, playing acoustic piano while Eastmond plays keyboard, and with Baker providing a religious feel over flowing accompaniment; and George Duke, a long-time accompanist of strong singers, on "I'll Be Home for Christmas," on which he takes a solo of gradually rising buoyancy before Larry Carlton's.
It appears that Anita Baker took seriously the opportunity to record her Christmas album. For she has applied hard work and much imagination to her re-harmonized interpretations of classic songs, as well as her own original compositions consistent with her irrepressible spirit.... and that of the holiday.

Release Date: 2012 |
get off the site.
I give this album, 5/5, 10/10, and my grade for it is "A+"
Digging: Burger / Ink - Las Vegas
Bad review
doubt it
he should just follow my advice, or at least stop reviewing
Album Rating: 2.5"8. Summer On Smash: Oh no, not this song, this song is horrible!!! This song features Swizz Beats and Miguel, who do horrible performances. The worst Nas song ever made!!! 1/5"
nailed it, 100% agree lol. this guys low approval rating shows how stupid most of sputnik is when it comes to hip hop, not the opposite. seriously all yall do is talk shit, none of you even write hip hop reviews
there's a lot of classics on this though at least
this guys low approval rating shows how stupid most of sputnik is when it comes to hip hop, not the opposite
once he starts describing how the music actually SOUNDS and sums up the whole album instead of doing track by tracks, his approval rating will go up.
Album Rating: 3.0This album is a 3.5 at best on a good day. Some songs here are just plain horrible IMHO. Though I
don't mind track by tracks too much (if its well done, it can make a really good review) most turn out
like crap and the users here hate it. If you want your approval rating to go up and people to stop
making snarky remarks (like telling you to leave the site) then I suggest you go around and read a few
of the reviews done by the staff and other highly approved users here. It will help you write better.
Album Rating: 2.5what really pisses me off is people stuck on illmatic who call nas better than KRS-ONE when even Nas
will tell you hes not. nas is mainly about his rhyme style, a lot of the time his message is straight
up retarded.
Album Rating: 4.0@snoopdogg6969: KRS-One is better than Nas.

Just when it looked like Espanyol had got their act together, striking upon a formula that seemed destined to haul them clear of danger, fate intervened, and a humbling 3-0 home defeat to Real Betis in midweek owed much to a virus that swept through the camp in the days after a morale-boosting 4-2 win at Sporting Gijon.
Now Constantin Galca faces one particular dilemma: does he revert to the 4-1-4-1 system that showed so much promise in the three games prior to the Betis debacle, or does he stick with two strikers against the division's leakiest defence? The Romanian coach is keeping his cards close to his chest in the build-up.
Against Betis, the decision to play 4-4-2 was largely dictated by who was available but it would be dangerous to blame the formation for the outcome. Naturally, though, the local media are putting two and two together and calling for 4-1-4-1. Only a fortnight ago, Galca was said to be one bad result away from the sack, so playing two up front would be a bold call.
Either way, there's ample evidence to suggest this game will produce goals. It's almost a cast-iron guarantee whenever Rayo Vallecano hit the road and it's a surprise to see bets on over 3.5 goals and over 4.5 goals trading as high as 2/1 and 5/1 respectively. By standard conversion, my ratings suggest odds of 6/4 and 7/2 would be more appropriate.
Since Rayo gained promotion in 2011, their 89 away games have produced a grand total of 274 goals, an average of 3.08 per game. No fewer than 39 of those 89 matches have finished over 3.5 (around 44 per cent), implying odds of around 13/10 on that outcome here, while 23 (around 26 per cent) have finished over 4.5, implying odds of 29/10.
And there's nothing in their recent performances to indicate a dry spell might be imminent. The Franjirrojos have been breached twice in each of their five road trips since the winter break, a 2-1 defeat at Levante followed by four successive 2-2 draws at Valencia, Deportivo, Sporting Gijon and Real Betis.
Paco Jemez is waiting on the outcome of his appeal to red cards against Diego Llorente and Manuel Iturra in the midweek 5-1 home defeat to Barcelona before naming his starting 11, although he could be without as many as seven players, although it's not information that should discourage punters. Rayo will be Rayo, whatever 11 they field. With inferior players, Rayo will, presumably, only be more vulnerable to counter attacks.

Anthony Green
with The Dear Hunter
Friday, Jun 22, 2012 7:00 PM CDT
(6:00 PM Doors)
Bottom Lounge, Chicago, IL
Purchase Tickets
Additional Information
From Joyce's Dublin to Springsteen's Asbury Park, environments have always had a massive influence on writers and musicians' creative output. Such is also the case with singer/songwriter Anthony Green's debut solo release Avalon. Recorded last March over an eight-day period with Green and some friends at his fiancé's parents' house in the sleepy beach town of Avalon, New Jersey, the album spans Green's adolescence and adulthood and shows him at both his most visceral and vulnerable. "We had a short timeline [to record this album] and that's the way I used to work back in the day; you'd only have three days in the studio so you had to plan out everything and then just go for it," Green explains. "I've been wanting to record these songs for the past two years and this was the perfect time and place to make it happen."
Although the 26-year-old Green is best known as the lead singer for the Philadelphia-based progressive punk act Circa Survive, he's also an accomplished instrumentalist in his own right and has been penning the songs that would eventually become Avalon consistently for the past decade. "Some of these songs are brand new, but most of them are really old," Green explains. "For one of the versions of 'Dear Child (I've Been Dying To Reach You)' that's on this record, I wrote the lyrics for it four or five years ago and the music even years before that," he elaborates, adding that many of these songs were composed while he was still a junior in high school. Although Green initially intended many of these songs to be used in Circa Survive, ultimately he decided that in order to fully realize his artistic vision he would have to tackle these tracks on his own - a decision that was due to communicative issues as much as they were musical.
"I think at the time that I was writing a lot of these songs I wasn't necessarily able to articulate to [Circa Survive] all the stuff musically I wanted to do with them," Green explains. "I don't know chords; I don't know scales; I can't talk to anybody about time signatures, so I couldn't really explain how I wanted these to sound without doing something ridiculous like humming something out that doesn't make sense to anyone except myself," he adds. The logistics surrounding the writing and recording process of Avalon allowed Green to present his songs exactly the way he envisioned them, making this album the first true glimpse into the inner workings of Green's psyche.

Development Opportunity
The City's overall strategy for this Area is to complement Firewheel Town Center. A long term potential for the area would be the creation of a mixed-use transit-oriented development in support of a future light rail station on the Kansas City Southern line to Lake Lavon. At the Lavon Drive intersection, there is an opportunity for neighborhood /community scale retail space (especially grocery), complementary to the adjacent Firewheel tenant mix, along with limited office space (primarily for local professionals). There is additional potential for somewhat higher-density residential product, likely in a mixed-use setting.
Key Assets
Population and Income
The SH190 & Lavon Drive Trade Area profile suggests a relatively established concentration of higher-income households, expected to grow at a steady, if modest rate over the next 10 years.
Market Potential
Market potential within the SH190 & Lavon Drive Targeted Investment Area suggests support for retail and office space ancillary to the Firewheel Town Center, as well as a mix of residential units, potentially as part of a vertical mixed-use environment. This development opportunity will likely occur incrementally over the next 7 years.

Watch Money in The Bank 14 June 2015 match online
WWE SmackDown returns to SyFy this coming Thursday night (June 11, 2015) from Lafayette, Louisiana but the show was taped, as usual, on Tuesday. That means full spoilers are readily available if you're the impatient type who doesn't want to wait a couple days for the payoff.
WWE Money in the Bank 2015 offers up the annual dose of major opportunity and unsettling collisions.
Roman Reigns leads a hungry group of grapplers into a battle that promises bent ladders, lacerations and dropped jaws in the crowd. Kevin Owens looks to build on what he began at Elimination Chamber. Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose go at each other's throats one more time.
It all begins on Sunday, June 14 at 8 p.m. ET.
Watch Money in The Bank 14 June Here>>>
The Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, hosts the sixth Money in the Bank pay-per-view. It's WWE's fourth PPV event in eight weeks, capping off a crowded, busy stretch of the schedule. Even with minimal time to build toward this event, there's a good number of things to look forward to.
Rumors for the Day:
If Roman Reigns gets the WWE world heavyweight title at Money in the Bank, he could be facing Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam in a singles match.
If that happens, the plan could also be for Seth Rollins vs. Triple H at the same show, or at least there was talk of it at one point, according to Bryan Alvarez.
The latest Observer Newsletter notes that the plan for 2016 is for WWE to run quarterly live specials on the WWE Network, like what Elimination Chamber was.
The latest on Tyson Kidd is that he may have suffered a serious neck injury and could be out for over a year.
Here's the least surprising rumor ever, from the Observer: those running Tough Enough were looking for good television characters in a reality show as opposed to good wrestling talent.

Argentina vs Paraguay live stream soccer Copa America 2015 on PC
All Soccer fans are waiting for the ultimate football tournaments Argentina vs paraguay video sopcast on pC.You are all welcome to enjoy the match and see the super star Leonel Messi performance for his country.
For Argentina, clinching a spot in the 2014 World Cup seems likely. If Argentina wins or draws and Uruguay draws or loses, Lionel Messi and company will book their trip to Brazil.
Argentina vs Paraguay live stream Here>>>
A draw and Ecuador loss would also see Argentina through.
Currently atop South American qualifying, the Argentines have lost just one game in 13 total qualifiers (seven wins, five draws). While traveling to Paraguay won't be easy, it's hard to envision Argentina losing to a team currently one point ahead of last-place Bolivia.
For Paraguay, only a win and a Uruguay draw or loss can keep them alive for the fifth-place finish and the playoff that comes with it. It's a long shot, but it's something worth fighting for, at least.
When: Tuesday, September 10 at 9:40 p.m. ET (2:40 a.m. BST)
Where: Defensores del Chaco, Asuncion, Paraguay
Watch: beIN Sport en Espanol
Argentina will be without Gonzalo Higuain, Javier Mascherano, Federico Fernandez and Ezequiel Garay for this match, though when you have stars like Lionel Messi, Sergio Aguero, Erik Lamela, Angel Di Maria, Ezequiel Lavezzi and Rodrigo Palacio on the squad—and those are just the attackers!—depth isn't exactly an issue.
Paraguay is fresh off a 4-0 dismantling of Bolivia on Saturday, so that coupled with the home crowd at their backs should give them some confidence. Some. Argentina will be one of the favorites heading into Brazil next year, however, so it's hard to see Paraguay beating them, even at home.
The last time these teams played, Argentina won 3-1.

Great photo. The lighting is really nice. Very interesting.

Well, what shall I say? The man and the situation are very attractive for a photographer, while the shooting conditions are simply awful, to tell you the truth. The man is dark so theat we can hardly see him in front of the white wall. May be a fill-in flash could have saved it. Or may be not

This foto definately deserves more points! A great capture of a calm and meditative moment. I love it, thanks for sharing!

In every aspect of our business, we strive to do the right thing—for our customers, our employees, our communities and our world.
Allstate was founded in 1931, became a publicly traded company in 1993, and became fully independent in 1995, when it was spun off from Sears. Today, we are the largest publicly held personal lines property and casualty insurer in America. We are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol ALL and are widely known through the "You're In Good Hands With Allstate®" slogan.
Allstate is more than an insurance company. We're a growing network of small businesses with a team of trusted advisors in communities across the country. We provide total household solutions and deliver best-in-class customer experience. Allstate's 78,000 employees, agency owners and agency staff care. We strive to make communities stronger, lives safer and futures brighter.
Through our products and services, we help families protect the things that are most important to them. We improve the quality of life for millions of Americans, not only through our business, but through our commitment to communities and to corporate responsibility.
We make our Good Hands® come to life by contributing millions of dollars and volunteering thousands of hours each year.
Financial Strength and Performance
Allstate is one of the strongest companies in our industry. We had $35.7 billion in revenues in 2015, a 1.2 percent increase from $35.2 billion in 2014. Both Allstate Insurance Company and Allstate Life Insurance Company had an A.M. Best financial strength rating of A+ (second-highest of 16 categories) as of year-end 2015. Allstate held $25.1 billion in capital resources at year-end 2015, and manages $77.8 billion in assets in our well-diversified investment portfolio.
This financial strength enables Allstate to grow our business and keep our promises to stakeholders through good and bad economic conditions. Net income available to common shareholders for 2015 was $2.1 billion, or $5.05 per diluted common share. During 2015, we continued to invest in initiatives that help make communities safer and stronger, including $36 million given by The Allstate Foundation, Allstate, and its employees, agency owners and agency staff.
For more detailed financial information, see our most recent annual report.
A Company That Cares
We are a 75,000-strong force for good, composed of employees, agency owners and agency staff. Of Allstate's employees, 56 percent are women and 33 percent are minorities. Our employees, agency owners and agency staff care deeply about our customers, the way we do business, our communities, and our place in society. We care enough not just to guess what our customers and stakeholders need and expect from us—we ask, and we engage.
Eight years ago, Allstate began a transformation to become a more customer-focused company. We introduced Our Shared Vision to capture the vision, values and operating priorities that make us a more competitive force in the market. Our Shared Vision was aspirational, and provided a strong foundation to inspire positive change throughout our company.
More recently, we created Our Shared Purpose—our guide to what it means to be an Allstater—to tell our story.
We help our customers live a good life by providing young people with opportunities to reach their full potential, empowering victims of domestic violence, volunteering in our local communities, and supporting nonprofits. Visit our Community Presence page for more information.

Companies still face shortage of professionals and rising competition from the mainland
Business is booming these days for the garment industry, but the picture is not all rosy because of staff shortages and the ever-present spectre of growing competition from China.
Alexa Chow, managing director, Centaline Human Resources Consultants Limited cites two major changes that have had a favourable impact in the past few years.
First, the European Union's decision to quash the quota system on 1 January 2005 opened up more opportunities for Hong Kong companies. Second, the CEPA arrangement, whereby there is zero tax on products, offers the benefits of processing products both in China and Hong Kong, but as being labelled as "Made in Hong Kong" provided they fulfil the criteria.
These two significant concessions have encouraged more garment-manufacturers to move still more of their operations into China to cut costs and increase profit margins.
"Today it is much easier for brand names to go into China," says Ms Chow. "Garment exports from Hong Kong and the industry generally are both booming."
As a result, demand now exceeds supply for professionals in the industry. Companies facing difficulty in recruiting candidates are offering higher salaries to lure experienced people from other companies, creating a knock-on effect that is causing ripples across the industry.
Ms Chow believes that while the boom situation continues, Hong Kong will remain an important middleman in garment merchandising and design, though the actual manufacturing will stay in China. "Any developments will be streaming towards design and merchandising, though the industry is already following that path so I expect the situation to get even better," she says.
China competition
The year 2008 will mark the end of restrictions on China's garment industry, which will give Hong Kong companies more competition from China. "There may be pressure to drive down prices to compete, and that will bring increasing pressure to move more production processes to China, possibly even the design and merchandising element," says Ms Chow. "We will just have to see what happens after the quotas are lifted."
Faced with such increasing competition from mainland manufacturers, Hong Kong companies are trying to cut costs to a minimum. One widely-employed economy is to second key staff to their factories in China, while rarely if ever bringing mainland candidates to fill top jobs here despite their expertise in design or merchandising. However, Ms Chow does not rule out the possibility that in the future skilled professionals from China may be competing with Hong Kong people for senior positions.
She points out that China gave Hong Kong generous help in 2004 by setting up the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA) that gave Hong Kong companies, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), early access to trading in China markets. CEPA permitted the tax-free import into China of Hong Kong-made products, lifting quota restrictions to help Hong Kong recover from the recession caused by the Asian financial crisis. CEPA thus became the lifeline that rescued many floundering SMEs here.
However, SMEs wishing to develop business on the mainland must understand and abide by mainland regulations while having to offer increased salaries to recruit local staff. "Many Hong Kong companies are in the original equipment manufacture (OEM) business, so competition with mainland companies is fierce, and the rising local employment costs could leave them unable to support themselves," Ms Chow cautions.
Hottest job openings
Meanwhile, the hottest job openings for Hong Kong talents on the mainland are for designers and merchandisers at all levels from junior to senior because of Hong Kong's international exposure to the latest trends. Positions in quality assurance and for production managers are usually at a senior level, requiring experienced candidates.
Ms Chow finds that Hong Kong professionals taking mainland jobs are willing to work there on weekdays provided they can return here at weekends. However, there is strong opposition to being permanently stationed there.
Further, she points out that Hong Kong is rich in fashion talents thanks to the wide spread of related courses offered by Hong Kong institutions. "In a bid to maintain Hong Kong's leading position, companies and professionals must frequently upgrade themselves through training, and work even harder to provide quality products and service," Ms Chow concludes.

A multi-agency task force conducted a sweep in and around Lake Elsinore on Thursday to determine whether registered sex offenders are in compliance with the terms of their probation, release or parole.
From noon to 8 p.m., 34 law enforcement officers made the checks in Lake Elsinore, Lakeland Village, Quail Valley, Sedco Hills, Wildomar and Goodhope, Riverside County sheriff's Sgt. John Lopotosky said.
Officers found that of the 243 registrants, 29 might be in violation, Lopotosky said. Further investigation will be conducted in those 29 cases, he said.
One registered sex offender, George Acosta, 42, of Goodhope, was arrested on suspicion of being under the influence of a controlled substance and violation of parole, the sergeant said.
Agencies involved in the sweep were the Sheriff's Department, Lake Elsinore police, state parole and county probation.

Meanwhile, I Was At "The Hairy Monk" Last Night
I was there for '06's Opener. The Lady, called Linda, was there. We talked, drank, hugged & kissed. Then, there was Natalie, who has known me for coming to this pub, which bills itself as "Home Of Red Sox Nation" & "Member Of Red Sox Nation";
From both ladies, I received tremendous hugs & kisses;
The Pub has served as Post-Game Mourning Spots for when I was up at "The Toilet", when Curt Schilling had nothing in the tank & when Aaron Heilman didn't quite pitch in acceptable fashion(NY Mets);
When Seamus Flynn was one of the owners, he tipped me off about "Professor Thom's";
I'm grateful about "The Hairy Monk", as much as I'm grateful about "Professor Thom's";
Happy New Year, All;
PS: "Lets Go Red Sox"; "Lets Go Mets"; "Thahhhhhhhhhhhh Yankees SUCK";
"Well, Obviously!"(Thanks To John B.Sterling for that last quote & Ispiration for a certain 3rd Mock Call).

Stock #7209-STL
Engine: LS3
Transmission: 4L85E
Mileage: 5846 ( since rebuilt )
Body Style: Truck
Rear End: 12 Bolt
Exterior Color: Tan
Interior Color: Black
Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to offer one of the coolest 1972 El Camino SS available. We have seen a new trend sweeping across the automotive world and everybody wants a "resto-mod". There is still much confusion as to what a resto-mod is but to put it plain and simple, a resto-mod is transforming a muscle car or classic car into a new age, modern machine. Options such as newer LS3 Small Block Chevy, a 4-Speed Automatic Transmission with Electric Overdrive and a full Hotchkis Performance Suspension qualify this El Camino to be one of the baddest machines on the road. This sleeper isn't your average El Camino because this beast is equipped with a LS3 power-plant paired to a 4L85E Transmission to make sure this resto-mod is capable of translating power to the rear axle. The LS3 is capable of producing just under 450HP which is plenty of power to get this El Camino to give newer Ford's and Mopar's a run for their money. This '72 Chevy is dialed in to perfection and handles better than most cars rolling off an assembly line today. Stopping power is also on point with the Wilwood 6 Piston Disc Brake set-up which gives you plenty of confidence if you wanted to push your El Camino to the limits. The best thing about a resto-mod is that you still get to appreciate classic styling, beautiful rally dash gauges and bucket seats with a staple shifter without sacrificing that new car feel. This El Camino comes with its original build sheet showing that it is a TRUE SS and a very well optioned car out of the factory. This El Camino is in a league of its own and if you are looking for one that you can really enjoy on the open road, you will be hard pressed to find one this fun to drive. For more information about this 1972 Chevrolet El Camino including over 100 HD photos and HD Video, please visit www.GatewayClassicCars.com or call to speak with one of our friendly and knowledgeable staff members at 618-271-3000.
