1928 HUDSON phaeton top and information
Hello everyone!!
As you most likely will notice I am NEW to this forum!
I am hoping that someone around somewhere will be able to help me with my present problem. I very purchased a 1928 Hudson Super Six Phaeton "seven seater" which is something like 90& restored but needs the remaining 10% which consists mainly of the top.
I need to purchase the top material and to get some clues as to how the top must be to look as original. I might consider side curtains as well but that would be in a second stage, after the top is ready.
As to the purchase, I believe Haartz would be the right place to go; my main concern is those "clues" I mentioned. Ideally, I would need drawing, pictures, videos or anything similar to aid me in the right direction.
Can anyone give me any good suggestions as to where to locate this information....or better yet, actual photos or drawings??
I should mention that I have been a member of the Hudson-Essex-Terraplane Club for exactly 10 years but it doens't seem like I can get help from them.
Happy holidays!!
Lars -
Lars, I am not aware that the H-E-T would have anything that detailed, for constructing a convertible top. Especially one as old as 1928.
Have you attempted to contact other '28 phaeton owners (by using the national roster) to see if they'd let you take some measurements and photos of their cars? My guess is that there are very few if any '28's in existence, though.
The fall-back position is to simply find a good antique auto top shop and have them construct a new top for you, using the methods of the day. Most 1928 cars, I'm guessing, would have been constructed similarly. So, if the guy's done a 1928 Olds phaeton, he could give you a pretty fair approximation of what a '28 Hudson would have looked like. And if indeed your car is the "last one standing", you have the benefit of knowing that no one is going to point out how his convertible top is more authentic than yours. -
Well, here are two photos of a '28 phaeton. It is owned by a Enrique Zarak from the Republic of Panama

I think 1 of the NZ HET club members has 1 of these as well talk to David Webster in NZ he mighty be able to put you on the right track
Mike -
Many thanks for all three replies!!!
All were very useful! I'll first search the HET roster, then see if I can locate this Kiwi Hudson fan and last, try the experienced upholsterer approach.
Who knows, maybe in the meatime some photos might drop in!
Merry Christmas!!
Lars -
Doesn't the Hostetler Museum have one of these? I think they would be willing to take extensive pictures to help out a fellow member. Just a thought. Of course, I could be way off on them having one.......
It looks like the Hostetler Museum has a 1928 Sedan Convertible not a phaeton.
Correct you are. I was off by 1 year. They have a 29.29dualcowlsport_02.jpg535 x 462 - 29K -
Thanks for the photo...however mine is a 1928 7 passenger phaeton, not a "dual cowl" phaeton as the one pictured..
Still appreciate your help!
Lars -
I may be wrong but I think that Butlers book on Hudsons has a drawing of the 28 in it I can't get to mine right now or I would look to make sure. Anybody got their butler book Handy?
Bob Hickson -
I don't have any experience with open Hudson tops since my Essex is a sedan. I do have experience with making a top for my '26 Chevrolet Touring which I completed this fall. I steam bent the top bows and sewed the top myself using "Cobral Short Grain Vinyl". I did not do side curtains. This material is basically a heavy black canvas with a layer of textured vinyl on one side to make it waterproof. It's relatively cheap and easy to sew with a regular sewing machine. One source for this is Mac's Auto Parts.
They are a Vintage F**d Parts supplier. They also sell other roof materials. You would want something that would look similar to what was used by Hudson in 1928. I looked at the Haartz site but their materials seemed to be geared to modern cars. -
I have the book and just checked, on page 115 the top left photo shows a car similar to mine. its a 7 seater and has a WB of 127.7".
Lars -
Well, that's more experience than I have (so far only a Model A F--d paheton).
I'll check Mac's material, they might have something appropiate.
I had thought Haartz was "the" supplier if they are aiming more towards modern cars then not.
Thanks for the comments!
Lars -
I wrote an article in our local club newsletter about my experiences in making a touring top. This can be found at: http://clubs.hemmings.com/clubsites/eacc/RB.pdf
It's on page 7, "Making a Touring Top". -
Thanks very much, 30 Essex!
I hadn't seen your reply till now, hence the delay.
Your artcle seems very useful to me (and the magazine quite interesting as well).
Btw, I also have a 1930 Essex sedan but it need to be restored (badly).
Lars -
I have an unrestored 1928 Hudson 7 Pass. Phaeton. As the car is in storage on the other side of the country (Canada) I can't recal exactly what of the top I have, but seem to think some of the folding framework was there. Contact me and we can swop notes.

Glen Cox in Salt Lake City, Utah has a seven passenger super six Phaeton (phone 801 262-9169) that he is in the process of restoring. Glen is not a member of the HET and I expect that he does not do email. Glen woiuld be a good contact and might be able to help you out.Brownie
I'm sure Eldon & or his Museum would be glad to be of assistance. I know he has the one pictured above but believe he has another, a pretty nice original out of the Mendoza collection he acquired a few years back.
Richard Riggs (Dick) had a NOS Top for a touring '20's +/- at the W'tern Reg meet in Oxnard Cal. this year.
VicTor Z -
For the following members:
Victor T, Oldhudsons, Browniepetersen, ESSX28-1 and SteveW: I would like to thank all of you for your help commenting re my question on the top for my 1928 Hudson convertible!
It seems very strange to me, but today I received in separate emails th e comments from all of (probaly replied long ago, I am not sure) to my problem. It seems like a time lapse (?):
Whatever, this subject was nearly a couple years ago and unfortunately, I haven't come very far and have mereIy got the top material so far. I need both photos or drawings of a similar top and a good upholsterer, which is becoming the hard part here (remember I am located in Valparaiso, Chile).
Victor T, would you be able to give me Richard Riggs' email address so I could try contacting him?
Oldhudsons, would you be able to tell me how to contact Eldon and/or his museum?
Steve W I'll contact you at the email address given.
Unfortunately, only email will do, as I have little practice in spoken English.
Many thanks again to you all!

The council charged with drafting Egypt's new constitution says it will vote on a final draft on Thursday, rushing to finish its work amid widespread protests against President Mohamed Morsy and a walkout by some members.
Fresh clashes broke out near Cairo's Tahrir Square on Wednesday, a day after a massive demonstration against Morsy's decrees that extended his powers last week. Dozens of police officers, backed by trucks firing tear gas, arrested numerous protesters, some of whom were beaten by officers as others continued to throw stones at police.
But Morsy showed no signs of backing away, telling the American magazine Time, "My chief responsibility is to maintain the national ship to go through this transitional period."
"What I can see now is, the Egyptians are free," he said. "They are raising their voices when they are opposing the president and when they are opposing what's going on. And this is very important. It's their right to express and to raise their voices and express their feelings and attitudes. But it's my responsibility. I see things more than they do."
Morsy issued an order November 22 preventing any court from overturning his decisions, essentially allowing him to run the country unchecked until a new constitution is drafted. In a surprise move after days of protests, the constituent assembly that has been drafting Egypt's new constitution said Wednesday it was on the verge of concluding its work.
Essam El-Erian, a senior Morsy adviser, said the council is expected to vote on a final draft Thursday and put it before the Egyptian people for a vote within 15 days. If it passes in that referendum, the controversial decrees would be lifted.
But the move provoked a walkout by a number of the council members. Sameh Ashour, head of the lawyers' syndicate and a former member of the council, said that only 55 of the 100 original members of the assembly remained, and all of them were from Islamist movements such as the Salafists or the Muslim Brotherhood, Morsy's political movement.
"The Muslim Brotherhood are stealing the constitution," he said. "They are tailoring it according to their view after Coptic church representatives, civil movements, and revolutionary representatives withdrew."
El-Erian said only 22 members had quit, and the remaining ones would take their concerns into consideration when voting Thursday.
"Their brains and (all) their opinions are in the draft," he told CNN's "Amanpour." He denied the process was being rushed, saying the assembly had been at work for six months.
"All Egyptians are waiting for a new constitution reflecting the hopes of the people and dreams of Egyptians during the revolution and to end the suffering of Egyptians for more than 60 years under dictatorship and totalitarianism," he said.
But the move to swiftly ratify a new national charter drew a vehement reaction from one of the constitutional council's former members, Ayman Nour.
"This cannot happen," said Nour, a former presidential hopeful who quit the assembly earlier this year. "It would be the biggest treason in Egypt's history."
Morsy and his backers described last week's decree as an attempt to preserve the fragile Arab Spring revolution that pushed longtime strongman Hosni Mubarak from power and led to the country's first free elections. But critics have called it an unprecedented power grab, and a Monday night statement declaring the edict applied only to "sovereign matters" did nothing to defuse their anger.
Egyptians packed Tahrir Square past midnight Tuesday in what observers said were the biggest protests since Mubarak's ouster in 2011, calling on Morsy to reverse his decree or resign. While that demonstration was largely peaceful, one man died from inhaling tear gas during a fight between demonstrators and police nearby, and more than 400 people were injured in protests across Cairo and around the country.
Aly Hassan, a judicial analyst affiliated with the Ministry of Justice, said he was surprised at the move, since Morsy's decree gave the constituent assembly an extra two months to complete their work.
"This could be a way for him to get out of this debacle without reversing his decree and decisions," Hassan suggested.
Brookings Institution analyst H. A. Hellyer said the sudden push could be an attempt to take some of the heat off of Morsy, Egypt's first freely elected leader. Hellyer, who is currently in Cairo, considers that Morsy has "put himself in a tricky position" by issuing the edict because it has made it very difficult for him to compromise.
"I think his advisers are figuring out a way where he can climb down a little bit to defuse the situation without coming across as weak," he told CNN.
Despite critics' concerns over its drafting, the constitution would likely pass in a referendum because many Egyptians crave stability after months of uncertainty, he said. Islamist groups may also cast the decision in a religious light. But Hellyer said the huge numbers that turned out Tuesday -- a workday -- show that significant numbers of Egyptians from all backgrounds are unhappy over the president's assumption of new powers.

Loving Your Holiday: 5 Ways to Enjoy the Season
Posted: 12/6/2013
For most of us, the holidays are a stressful time of year. We spend a huge amount of time and energy preparing for what sometimes amounts to a couple of days of fun. We shop, travel, visit relatives, clean, decorate, cook and socialize. We can expend as much energy in December as we do in three other months, combined. Often we get so wrapped up in our to-do list, we forget to have fun, get present to our intentions and enjoy our loved ones, many of whom we may only see once a year. While you may not feel you can cut back on all the holiday activities, you can certainly find moments to relax, restore, and experience the joy of the season. Here are 5 simple things you can do right now to let go of the holiday stress and feel peaceful:...

Caffeine 'traffic light' detects coffee jitter levels
When you stare into the inky depths of a cup of coffee, you see a mystery. Just how much caffeine is lurking in there? A team of scientists has developed a way to find the answer with Caffeine Orange, a caffeine detection kit.
Caffeine levels are detected using a lab-on-a-disc. The user places a sample of the coffee into a chamber on the disc and spins it. This extracts the caffeine in the liquid and allows for measuring it.… Read more

Geography, is a subject where it takes all the skills from science, math, English, and social studies, and combines it into a in depth thinking class. It makes you find the problem, fix it and tell how and why you fixed it . For example, a crop is not growing in a dry area, then you try it in a wet area and it grows, now you have to find out why it grows in a wet area and not a dry area and explain why. It is good to start out early learning about the basics in the core classes then later in the more advance classes, to understand how to fix a problem.

What happens when a country moves it's capital city? Why would a country choose to move it's capital? This list (with some short historic and geographic context) helps answer those questions.
Victoria McNamara's curator insight,
December 11, 11:39 PM
Over the years countries have moved their major capitols from one area of their country to another. They move their capitol cities to try to please the people and reform. By moving the capitol cities it causes more growth and development which can lead to the area being more populated.

If you have never visited a veterans cemetery, I think it is important to go and just visit even if you do not have a realtive there. These men and women gave their lives for us in one way or another. No matter what creed, what belief or which religion they followed all are treated with same care. If you really want to see an amazing site goto a US Military Cemetery overseas. These gaves are maitained by the locals, French, Italians, Ducth, etc. They keep them neat, clean, with flowers and make sure our soldiers that died for them are not forgotten. The one overlooking Normandy is amazing. I have had the privledge to visit the US Cemetary near Rome and the feeling you get...well undescribable. Take a look here for a view of these cemeteries. http://www.abmc.gov/cemeteries/index.php

November 5, 8:51 PM
Whilst overall statistics highlight a narrowing of the gap regarding gendered access to education, the UN statistics also indicate the uneven nature of the improvement in terms of geographical location and age. For older girls in sub-Saharan Africa, the enrolment gap between girls and boys is widening.

This is perfect for a unit on climate change and global warming. I would definitely recommend this in geography classes because it is a wake up call. Students can see the effects of climate change and draw their own conclusions about what they believe about this. I would use this with in coorelation with a video about global warming, or even use this as a webquest activity.

Rosling does a great job speaking of poverty and population. This would be an awesome text to use in a unit about poverty. This can be incorporated in a history class, economics class, sociology class, even an anthropology class if it is offered in highschools. It is a perfect length video that can be used to introduce a writing assignment, a research project, or an in class group assignment. But it also shows the extremety of poor vs. rich. From what I have seen students like to state their opinions about issues like this. Teachers may have to watch out how they introduce this into their topic or discussion, but it is a worthwhile source to use.

The author of thid article shares how his father moved to the farm in search for economic prosperity and opportunity. Then as a soon he desires one day to make his fathers farm into a place were organic food would be sold one day. Due to land projects and government needing the land his fathers orginal agricultural enterprise in the Minnesota region shifted. I was very suprised after reading this article that the best way to have economic and environmental sustainability is to work with with the markets and develop genetically modified foods as the most viable way to create a surplus in a highly urbanized growing landscape. I found it very saf fake food is prefered over real food that ws once made though the old school agricultural process of sowing reaping and harvesting natural foods to be placed in the market and provided to people.

Unfortunately in today's society, in order to participate successfully in the global economy, you have to have a big farm. Foods must be grown in a certain way in order to have the best yield and appease the consumers. The small farming approach just won't yield enough for the 7 billion people living on the planet. As bad as big farming may be, it has kept us all afloat and has even yielded surplus. In my opinion the problem is not with the big farming equation, the problem is what we do with the abundance of surplus we do away with.

The human popluation debate will always seem to be an issue. One can almost assume that the less developed countries are going to have the highest popluation but the most problems as well. A country that is classified as less developed are most definitely going to have low incomes due to the low number of jobs available, poor human development because there isn't enough people to be taking care of each other.

One of my favorite combinations of maps for Thanksgiving involves the geography of food production and food consumption. When we start looking at the regional dishes on Thanksgiving plates we can see some great patterns. This ESRI storymap asks the simple question, where did your Thanksgiving Dinner come From? This StoryMap is a great resource to combine with this New York Times article that shows the regional preferences for the most popular Thanksgiving recipes. Where are sweet potatoes grown? Where do people make sweet potato pie for Thanksgiving? Plymouth County, MA is heart of only 3 cranberry producing regions and is was also home to the first Thanksgiving. How has this New England local ecology and traditional food patterns influenced national traditions? For these and more Thanksgiving resources on scoop.it, click here.

This website is interesting because it gives us the geography of where specific foods in the country are manufactured such as cranberrie sauce, turkeys, sweet potatoes and helps us develop a rich cultural history and earn solidarity of where we come from and the traditions that make us who we are in terms of culinary choices. The original thanksgiving with the early puritan settlers in New England most likely reflected dishes that were synonomous with foods that natives grew and other local items that were family in this area. Now because of industry we to choose foods that have their origin from markets nationwide.

Love to see where the traditional American Thanksgiving food comes from. We have that, but growing up in an all Italian household Thanksgivng was more then Turkey...it had an added Italian flavor. Start with antipasto that had a prosciutto that would met in your mouth, plus cheeses, muhrooms, other meats, then would come the soup, then the pasta, could be any variety then the Turkey, but you would also have a ham because you never knew who was going to stop by, plus all the trimmings and then finally dessert with Italian cookies and pastires along with the Thanksgivng traditions of pumpkin and apple pies. We took breaks inbetween courses to watch some football and make room for more food becasue it was all good. We literally ate all day. So for us out food came form all over the world. In a nation of immigrants, we added our own flavor to an American Holiday..and to me whats more American than brining in some of your own hertitage into a holiday..we are after all a "melting pot"

Common core allows them to apply critical thinking and connections to the wolrd around them including a thurough understanding of geopgraphy.

Every year it is expected around halloween that my family and friends will carve pumpkins. Then around chrstmas time it is expected that we will get our christmas tree to decorate. This is something lots of people do around this time. However what I never really linked together was that I was thinking about the geography of things by doing this. I know it is part of our culture and most people do it because it was a tradition. However what I never really thought about was where these pumpkins or christmas trees actually came from. There is a process that farmers have to go through to produce pumkins and pine trees, a process we probably don't even think about because we are so used to having these things around the holidays. When we think of pumpkins we thing of Jack-o-laters and pumkin pies, but to some people pumpkins are considered a crop and food source. We may not see it that way because our culture uses them around Halloween and for processed canned pumpkin for cooking. However not all cultures are like that, which is interesting to think about. Something that is considered seasonal in our culture might be an everyday crop for another culture. It is interesting to see how different places in the wolrd use such things as pumpkin so much different that we do in our culture.

I have been a long-time fan of pumpkin coffee, and tomorrow I will probably have some with my cousins and family... Some areas of Asia allow consumption of dogs, other areas of the US allow consumption of roadkill, and that is different from what most people in RI are used to... So I guess, it's not really my business what other people and countries do with their pumpkin crops, as long as it doesn't negatively affect other people. My neighbor has won some prizes, I think 3rd place in RI for largest pumpkin contests, which is pretty cool, because for several months, you can see their pumpkin garden from my backyard. Those pumpkins are enormous, and made me wonder if there was anything being done to make the modified pumpkins more usable in food. I know GMOs are a touchy issue, but to feed the starving people around the world, you have to wonder if one pumpkin at 2000 lbs could feed a village of people. Lots of people that don't like GMOs probably do unhealthy things in other ways, so their huge activism movements really boggle me. Labeling GMOs is one thing, but stopping genetic modifications seems as controversial as starting them, especially when some people can benefit from them. Whatever, I guess pumpkins are cool for whatever people want to do with them, including smashing them... this week on RIC's campus I saw a smashed pumpkin. The only thing that really popped into my head was not "what a waste," or "oh, those delinquents," but rather "that seems fun." I did assume though, that no one was hurt by the smashing of the pumpkin...

Just incredibly awesome, but so, so sadly true.
"After spending a month becoming familiar with the location of the seven continents and the major bodies of water, each student is given a pumpkin to turn into a globe. Students paint the entire surface of the pumpkin blue to represent water. Next, they use pushpins to position and trace the outline of each continent onto their pumpkins. They use actual globes as models and are careful to place the continents in the correct hemisphere. Then, they paint and label each continent a different color. They label the major bodies of water and use white paint to represent the North and South Poles." Via Seth Dixon Delete the scoop?

ACDelco PF48 vs. PF63 usage and also ecore filter?
Hello, after reading some threads on oil filters, some guys are using an PF63 in place of a PF48. Claiming that the extra filter media is the way to go.
My biggest thing, is the filter being 0.75" longer worth the hassle if you ever had to go in for a warranty repair? I would gather that if you pulled into the dealer with engine complaints and they saw the wrong filter.......
Also, there was a lot of talk about ecore AC filters. Something to do with a plastic cage instead of the steel tube? This resulted in the filter media tearing during use. I will have to check my PF48s when I get home.

01-29-2013, 03:43 AM #2Thats why i use napa because they list the longer filter (napa/wix) as oem spec for trucks. It also makes it alittle easier to replace since they mount so close to the oilpan to get some more to grip on.

E-core filters are easy to distinguish as the part number will end with an "E." For example a PF46 is the traditional metal center tube and a PF46E is an ecore. I to date have not seen a PF48 in e-core form. If I do I'll personally stay away from it. The PF48 on the other hand is a well built filter for its price. Nothing wrong with Wix filters either, but on lots of their filters they use a thread end bypass and as a result the amount of filter media is reduced in the can. I am not sure if this is the case on the Wix 57060 for our trucks, but I do know that Wix generally makes a quality filter.

01-29-2013, 09:36 AM #4I would go to the wix filter web site and see if you can use a pf63 filter as a replacement for the pf48 spec. from what I found this is not listed as a replacement.
the bypass pressure range is slightly different . these pf63 filters appear to be for V6 engines.

I used to use Wix oil filters back when I had my Isuzu pickup. If ACDelco goes e-core on the PF48, I'll switch to Wix.
I may go to Walmart and pick up a few more PF48s, they are $3.79 each.
01-29-2013, 09:29 PM #10I think that GM stopped these environmental type filters. this is because of oil filters blowing up. EPA does not like oil all over a hywy.
with engine damage created GM/ac will stall.

Label Lucile Ltd., New York. Silk taffeta, satin, tulle, and chiffon with lace, lace insets and appliqué, ribbons, and silk flowers Currently not on view 1962-190-1 Gift of Mrs. William H. Greene, 1962 |
LabelDescribed by the press as "the first English lady of title...to dress the Four Hundred," the English couturiere Lady Duff Gordon, known as Lucile, opened a New York branch of her famous London dressmaking business in 1910, expanding to Paris in 1912 and Chicago in 1915. Lucile aimed to make an art of beautiful dressing, and her "Dream Dresses" were fairy-tale creations of shimmering silks, gossamer laces, and delicate rainbows of ribbon. Influenced by her early designs for Lingerie and tea gowns, Lucile's dresses, which she also referred to as "Gowns of Emotion," were given suitable romantic names. This pale aqua dinner dress, entitled "Happiness," is from her Fall 1916 New York collection and represents the quintessential Lucile creation. It was designed in the eighteenth-century style she often favored, with its hooped skirt drawn back to reveal a delicate silk, lace, and ribon petticoat. |

As the head of world soccer, Sepp Blatter has been trying hard to address the problem of racism in football since infamously telling CNN in 2011 that instances of it on the pitch could with solved "with a handshake."
Now, however, he is facing calls to quit as FIFA president following comments on Friday which have led to accusations that he has gone soft on fighting the issue.
"Sepp Blatter is erratic, his behavior is erratic, his declarations are erratic. He should just quit. It's completely unacceptable, what he said," Valeriu Nicolae of the Football Against Racism in Europe (FARE) group told CNN Friday.
After supporting Kevin-Prince Boateng, who walked off in protest after being racially abused during a friendly match in January, Blatter last month invited the AC Milan player to join the ruling body's new anti-racism taskforce.
But the 77-year-old appeared to have taken a big step backwards with his comments on Friday, casting doubt on his previous statements that offending clubs should face points deductions or even be relegated.
"Can we bring an end to violence or racism by docking points or relegating a team? Or would such measures lead people to come to games to get the match abandoned," Blatter said in a speech at a meeting of the company Early Warning System, with which FIFA works in its fight against match-fixing.
"We should do all we can but there's a risk that if we have matches replayed or if we punish clubs on the sporting front, it will open the door to hooligan groups who will come to deliberately cause trouble."
FIFA confirmed to CNN that the quotes were correct, but insisted that Blatter had not reversed his position on punishments for racism -- and that the comments merely raised the challenges faced in implementing such penalties.
"Today he reiterated the need for punishment that hits hard against any form of racism," a spokesperson from FIFA's media department said.
"He underlined that fines achieve little, but points deductions and exclusion from competitions would be effective measures. He also stressed that prevention must go hand in hand with punishment.
"He acknowledged that the implementation of these sanctions might pose some challenges, such as a potential risk that the system could be abused by some spectators for the only purpose of getting a very unfair advantage for their team.
"Such issues will be carefully examined and will in no way alter the FIFA President's very strong commitment towards the eradication of the racism scourge from football and his zero tolerance towards any form of racism."
Nicolae's call for Blatter to resign -- and thus end a reign that began in 1998 -- was supported by others on online social media.
"Sepp Blatter just gave every racist in football a licence to abuse. Even by his standards this is utterly outrageous," CNN's Piers Morgan wrote on Twitter, adding to the #Blatterout hashtag.
Nicolae said Blatter is out of touch with the realities of the game.
"Maybe it would be good for Sepp Blatter to spend some time outside of fancy meetings," he said.
"He would understand a lot more if he would come and see a game, see what is happening during the games and see what happens when you take the right measures.
"(What he said) makes absolutely no sense and goes against all our experience."
FARE works closely with European soccer's ruling body UEFA, monitoring crowds at matches and reporting any racist behavior that its staff witness.
UEFA has been criticized for what is seen as relatively light punishments for racist offenses, but has come down harder on offending clubs this season. Italy's Lazio has been punished on four occasions due to misbehavior by its fans.
"I have great confidence in UEFA," Nicolae said. "UEFA proved time and time again that they know what to do and they did the right thing. With FIFA I don't have that. Blatter is erratic and I think it's time for him to resign."
On Friday, the Greek football federation banned Giorgos Katidis for five club matches and fined the AEK Athens midfielder 1,000 euros ($1,300) following his Nazi-style goal celebration last month.
The ban is largely symbolic as the 20-year-old had already been suspended for the rest of this season by his club, and the federation had earlier banned him for life from representing his country.
Also on Friday, FIFA confirmed that Brazil will not be completely ready to host June's Confederations Cup -- a precursor event to next year's World Cup in the South American country.
"It will be a fantastic tournament -- but not all operational arrangements will be 100%" secretary general Jerome Valcke wrote in his monthly column on the FIFA website, on the same day of the inauguration of the third of the tournament's six host stadiums at the Arena Fonte Nova in Salvador.

"Great Stay at the Smokehouse--Good comfort Food"
The staff was responsive and the attached restaurant had good comfort food. The room was clean and quiet and the "lodge feel" lobby always had good coffee and chocolate and a fire going.

Monteagle is a nice little town and your visit here is what you make it. The Smokehouse is our faviorite place to stay in this area for a number of reasons.

We were traveling through to our destination. We have been pasted this hotel several times and wanted to stay. Really enjoyed the short time of our stay.

"Recommendation with a caveat"
We have stayed here a few times due to proximity to the University of the South. Our last visit was disturbing as both nights hotel employees stayed above our room and LOUDLY partied until 2 and 3 am- combined with other revelers outside and a large dog barking within their room Even when we called the front desk the party continued for another hour.

Stayed here with wife and group of 16 other riders out of Birmingham. This is the perfect location and we were able to park our bike just outside our door.

The Smokehouse Resturant and the location is the draw here. The rooms are OK and I see that they have cabins also available. The best feature here is the great resturant attached and location.

Our family has stayed here at different times during our many trips from Louisville to Florida.

"PLEASE - Buy new beds"
I like the idea of staying in a cabin and being able to bring my dog. The screened in porch is great. However, the bed was so bad, we barely slept. It creaked and swayed like it was about to break and the mattress had a cavernous hole that you couldn't help but role into. We put a cooler underneath to shore it up and eliminate the sag in the middle. […] It was incredibly uncomfortable. The tub had a bath mat in it to a) hide the dirt/mold on the bottom of the tub b) keep you from slipping an breaking your neck since there was not traction left on the surface (except the dirt/mold). The cabin was okay but smelled very musty so we kept the door open to the porch as much as possible. The kitchen is MINIMALLY outfitted. A few pots and a few plates/glasses. No baking pans, no pot holders. You can boil some water and fry something w/what they provide. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
"time for a make-over!"
We recently stayed at the Smoke House Lodge because it is convenient to Sewanee where our daughter is attending college. There are few choices in the area. The hotel has become very run down--rickety stairs in disrepair, frayed carpet rolling up at the edges and pulling away from the wall, tired mattresses and springs, and a general damp musty feel […] in our room. The bathroom was clean and the shower was great. Air conditioner cooled the room well. Just generally run-down and permanently worn and dingy. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com

Staff was friendly. The room was clean upon check in. However that was the only day it was cleaned. We just received fresh towels every day we were there but that was it.

"Great family getaway"
Great family get away. We stayed in one of the cabins and it was sooooooo nice!! It was a very nice cabin with plenty of room. The cabin was well maintained and very cute and rustic. We took full advantage of the oversized jacuzzi and the kitchenette. It was a great getaway with lots to do in the surrounding area and even more in the. Nearby surrounding […] areas. The cabin we stayed in was a perfect get away,and is perfect if you want to get away from it all. The cabins are sooooooo nice!! The only downside was we did not have a reliable working phone (except for hang up phone calls everyday ?), and the Internet was not working in the cabins while we were there. So if you want to get away from it all and enjoy your vacation free from the hassles of Internet and phone, this is your place. The only negative I have is about the manager that was working in a little room behind the front desk. Having been to the area before I knew there were passes you could buy to attractions in nearby lookout mountain - incline railway, rock city and ruby falls. When I asked the young lady working behind the desk where we could buy one of the combo passes for all three places, she did not know and asked her manager in the back room if she had ever heard of that. The manager in the back acted like she had no idea what we were talking about. After purchasing said pass, we went back and I let the girls behind the counter know there was a place you could buy the multiple pass for all three attractions and that it was even advertised in a brochure in their lobby. I do not blame the young ladies behind the desk, but the manager in the back room who as manager should know about these kind of things. I got the feeling that since they didn't sell the passes that they didn't care to help guests save money on a combo pass. The pass is available at an one of the three mentioned attractions and at other places close to the attractions. In short, this is a perfect place for a relaxing vacation, but ge Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com

"Best Western Smokehouse Lodge, Monteagle, TN"
We were very unsatisfied with this Lodge. The only good thing I can say is the beds were comfortable. We booked a wheelchair accessable room, one bed, with a roll in shower. They gave our room away even though we booked the room with our credit card. They did have another w/c room. However the bathroom was too small, did not have a roll in shower - […] which we booked. There was too much furniture in the room. We ate at the restaurant. NEVER AGAIN.. GREASY GREASY. We bought post cards - they could have told us we get them free in the office. The only good thing about the store was the fudge. When we checked out - there was extra on our bill. I asked what was it for - the girl did not know.. I of course did not pay!.
