Comments On Aug 30, 2013:The wheels are very nice and appear to be very well made but Rocky Mountain ATV/MC failed to mention that you must use Motosport Alloys Lug Nut Kit in order to mount these. TECH NOTE: WE NOW MSA LUG NUTS FOR THESE WHEELS.

Comments On Jun 21, 2013:I have had these wheels on my machine for 18 months now and they are very strong the finish is second to none they do have a few scraps and scratches but that is to be expected with over 2000 miles of riding in areas such as Hatfield McCoy trails in WV and Taylor Park CO. You do need the Moto Sport alloys lug nuts to mount this wheel to the machine no others will work and a thin wall socket. the quality of these wheels is top notch you will not be disappointed in your purchase and the look great to.

Comments On Sep 28, 2012:Nice rims but even mounting them very carefully scratches extremely easy and pretty sure they are not clear coated.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Feb 15, 2012:I learned the hard way on this wheel... the lug nuts are recessed COMPLETELY into the wheel holes.
You'll specifically need part #1087210004 to mount these to a Can-Am Outlander or Renegade (2012 or earlier). They need to be tapered, and you'll need a thin-wall socket to tighten these down.
When I ordered these, they were still a relatively new wheel to Rocky Mountain, so they didn't have much experience with them. Their excellent support staff was very kind to help me figure out what I needed.
Rocky Mountain gets an A+++ for service. M12 Wheels... gets a "fair" rating. To be honest, the finish and look is great, but mounting them up has been a nightmare. In the future, I'd go back to a style like ITP SS wheels I had on my last Renegade. No problems mounting those up!

A lucid account of the Suffolk Bank system which operated in Massachusetts between 1825 and 1858. Dr Trivioli shows that during this period a free enterprise central bank and clearing system operated with great success, bringing stability to a stuation where competing banks issued their own notes.
Synopsis: In tracing the history of the leading ideas of the Social Market Economy in Germany to their various intellectual roots, Konrad Zweig offers some pertinent insights into the fundamentals of German economic thinking and policies, little known in the English–speaking world. In his foreword to this work, Professor Christian Watrin of the University of Cologne comments: "I see great merit in Dr. Konrad Zweig's essay in clarifying and describing the leading ideas of the German position to an English–speaking public. His paper shows a profound knowledge of the historical roots, but at the same time, his aim is to show the compatibility of a competitive market and social protection.
A report looking at the transport problems in the UK, and at one potential solution to it.
Michael Forsyth provides the solutions for the abject failure of public services in the late 1970s and early 1980s:
"Local authorities seeking to make cuts in expenditure and increase benefits to ratepayers must now undertake extensive privatization of their services. The best method is just to do it, to put out services for private contract. The arguments of theory against the success of such action melt away in the practical results gained wherever it is done.
The British people have come to expect that public services will become lower in quality and' more expensive to provide. This need not be so. Privatization has its part to play, therefore, not only in re–servicing Britain, but in helping to restore the country's faith in itself."
A critical analysis of Britain's planning system. Not much has changed positively in the years since 1982 making this report still relevant today. It also outlines solutions that would free up the planning system.
... to the economic and political thought of our time. This book, written by Dr Eamonn Butler, gives an introduction to the great Austrian economist and political philosopher Friedrich A. Hayek. The book covers the themes of Hayek's work, which consists more than 25 books and numerous articles. The topics include Hayek's understanding of the market process; his critique of socialism and the meaningless term of social justice, and Hayek's suggestions for the constitution of the liberal state.
An indepth look at the options available for the process of privatizing Britain's airports. Taking into considersation the present thinking (of the mid 1980s) surrounding privitization Dr Barrett outlines how it could be applied to airports and the benefits that it would bring. He also outlines how it could be improved with a variety of differing policy ideas.
What now appears to be a seminal publication on the road to welfare reform. Ralph Howell examines the welfare system of the mid 1980s, what the Beveridge Report didn't utilise and how the two could be combined to create an incentivized work force and a simplified benefits system. This publication foreshadows many of the summer 2008 announcements.
The Adam Smith Institute is the UK's leading libertarian think tank...

About $75,000 has been put into this setup the past 2 years.

2001 Classic 32' Stacker Trailer Triple Axle Tag Trailer
Trailer is set up to haul 2 cars/trucks/etc. with a Stinger Auto Lift plus has a 2nd level Loft on front 8' of Trailer for extra parts storage. Trailer options include Onan RV Generator, SuperWinch, Front L- Shaped Aluminum Cabinets with Countertop, Wardrobe Cabinet, Radio System, 4 Exterior Spotlights, 7 Interior Fluorescent Lights, Outlets Inside and Out, Over $3,000 in Pit Pal Storage Accessories, Spare Tire Compartment with Spare Tire & Wheel and other miscellaneous options. Trailer did have a leak around one of the roof vents last year but was fixed in Winter of 2013. Tires, Brakes and Bearings were all replaced new less than 5,000 miles ago.
This past February we went and raced Speedweeks in Florida and had about $15,000 worth of work done on the Truck, Trailer and Generators before we left. This work included new Fuel Injectors, all Fluids Changed, new Air Bags, new Tires on Truck & Trailer, new Bearings, new Brakes, some new Suspension Components, $3,000 worth of Additional Pit Pal Products and some other Miscellaneous Items. The only defects with the unit is 3 minor things that occurred while I owned it. The truck blew out a RF tire once while we were on the freeway going 75mph and it tore up the inner wheel well on the RF a little bit, the trailer has 2 minor imperfections that include some water damage on the roof around one of the roof vents from it leaking before we went on the roof and re-caulked the roof vents and the front exterior of the trailer has a little damage from one time when I jackknifed it backing out of a pit stall. These cosmetic issues have no effect on the performance and besides those items the only other thing I would say about it is that it needs is a good polish job to make immaculate again as it dulled out over the past few years and we never waxed it out to make it look new again. I have a 6 car Race Team and just bought a 3 car Liftgate Gooseneck Trailer so I can haul more stuff around on the weekends and that is the only reason I'm selling.

Full Description
Features such as 15-ounce canvas construction, riveted leather flap straps, cotton webbing shoulder straps, and high quality buckles make this series of packs worth a second look. No reason to worry either, all three packs are handmade in Duluth, MN and come standard with our "Guaranteed for Life" warranty. The smallest of the three Utility series canoe packs, the #51, makes a great day pack for those items you like to keep close at hand either in the canoe or on a short day hike. It's also the perfect upgrade from our Scout Pack if you require more room in your pack. Both the #60 and #3-70 are much larger in volume and will provide more packing space for that quick weekend trip or a longer wilderness excursion. The only significant difference between these three rock solid packs is that the #51 has two leather flap straps, whereas the #60 and #3-70 have three leather flap straps. The #3-70 also includes a thick replaceable poly liner and tumpline. Made in USA.

- Dimensions: 20H x 18W
- Capacity: 1,640 cubic inches : 26.87L

I bought the 51 about twenty years ago and added heavier canvas, a double bottom and heavier all leather straps and a buckle attachment for a tumpline. I am a professional forest worker and carry the pack every day I am outside...which is nearly every day spring-summer-fall. The back flap is totally sun-bleached and the leather is now supple with long use. I depend on the best pack and the best boots I can get....regardless of price. If I really thought that there was something "better" out there, I would have it. Younger people laugh at it, as it lacks the "technical" look of "todays" gear. I am quiet and let them think what they want. Live and learn.

I decided to get the #60 instead of the #51 and when I got the bag in the mail it was quite large, but perfect to carry all of my hunting stuff. I can put in all the things that I need for a days worth of hunting comfortably and still have room for extra layers and a Thermos. This bag is amazing, I plan on getting the #51 for day hikes. The quality is unmatched.

the #51 is an all purpose, go everywhere pack. Roomy enough for everything you need for a day out and about. The flap and strap closure gives the need space for that last extra thing. We like this pack so much that we have given it away to visiting Guests during exchange weekends.

- Great Economical Pack

I purchased this pack for my son as his first Duluth Pack. It is a great size for the Jr. High School age. Fits everything for a long weekend camping to sleepovers with friends. Expands with the top flap and leather strapping system and allows him to stuff everything he needs and would want to carry. Great original design and economical.

I've owned this chair for approx 6 yrs now, and it's still great. I really love the rolling carry case, it makes transporting soooo easy. Clients really like that it's comfortable yet easy to get up & down from.
I and my clients have all loved this chair - most of my clients drift off quickly in it, so I'm not sure about the "feeling unsafe" comment...? The armrest has several adjustments. On one hand I wish the seat adjusted, but really it's centered to put the client's weight in good balance between the chair's legs while not shifting too much of the client's weight to their knees while keeping the client's low back in good reach (for good/safe pressure during massage).
This chair chair is the best. Adjusts quickly and easily for your clients. More time giving massage, less time worrying about getting them comfortable in the Chair
For a product that boasts 'infinetly adjustable' you could image my disappointment that there are no seat height adjustments and the arm rest only has two functional positions and neither one of them have proven to be comfortable to my clients. Because of the lack of seat adjustments, clients don't always feel supported properly by the chest piece, no matter how we've tried to adjust it.
The narrow spacing of the supports that run under the seat make this a very 'wobbly' chair for deep tissue work and clients feel 'unsafe.'
The only thing that made me decide to give it 3 stars instead of 2 is the fact that the cusions are remarkably comfortable. I'm still on the fence of returning this chair and going through a different brand. :(
Really great chair, fits all my clients great for everything!

Attorney General Van Hollen endorses Brad Schimel as his successor
Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen Wednesday endorsed Waukesha County District Attorney Brad Schimel as his successor, signalling that Van Hollen doesn't expect a competitive GOP primary for the office.
In a statement, Van Hollen praised Schimel's two decades of experience as a prosecutor. Van Hollen, a Republican like Schimel, created an open race for attorney general in October by announcing he would not seek a third term.
"Brad Schimel embodies what it means to be Wisconsin's 'Top Cop,'" Van Hollen said in the statement. "Brad's a law enforcement professional who will reject the partisan wrangling of Madison to do what's in the best interest of public safety and protecting Wisconsin families."
Democrats have a three-way primary for the office, with Jefferson County District Attorney Susan Happ, Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne and state Rep. Jon Richards of Milwaukee all committed to a run so far.
Two killed in Genesee crash Wednesday morning
A 23-year-old Waukesha woman and 23-year-old Milwaukee man were killed in a two-vehicle crash Wednesday on Sunset Drive (Highway DE) east of Highway 83 in the town of Genesee.
According to the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department, the woman was driving a silver Chevrolet west on Sunset at about 7:27 a.m. when she lost control of the vehicle, crossed the centerline and struck an eastbound silver Toyota being driven by a 65-year-old North Prairie woman.
Sunset Drive was closed for about four hours between Highway 83 and Brookhill Road.
The Waukesha woman died at Aurora Medical Center in Summit, where she was taken by ambulance. The Milwaukee man was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash.
The North Prairie woman was trapped in her vehicle, was extricated and taken by ambulance to Aurora Medical Center in Summit with multiple injuries. Her condition is unknown.» Read Full Article
City of Waukesha committees give shared health clinic their approval
The city of Waukesha took the steps Tuesday night to move forward on the approval of a cost-savings shared health clinic with two other governmental entities.
This occurred with the city's Finance and Human Resources committees making a recommendation for the Common Council to approve the intergovernmental agreement for a joint medical center with the School District of Waukesha and Waukesha County.
Waukesha's Common Council will vote on the recommendation at its May 6 meeting.
With many Common Council members in attendance at Tuesday's meeting who issued their support of the agreement, City Administrator Ed Henschel said he expects it to pass.
The school district and county already approved the agreement at meetings last month and for the health-care provider Healthstat to operate the facility. The North Carolina-based provider was selected by the city, county and school district earlier this year after a lengthy vetting process.» Read Full Article
Communities net $1.2 million rebate from Waukesha County recycling
Waukesha County residents recycled enough waste containers and paper in 2013 to cover an entire football field to a depth of 22 feet, about the height of a two-story building.
The recyclables were collected by 25 municipalities, and they will split more than $1.2 million from sales of the material to help offset their costs of the service, county solid waste supervisor Rebecca Mattano said Monday. Waukesha County has paid out more than $12.1 million to the municipalities since 2001.
The 25 communities spent $3 million to collect and haul plastics, glass, metal and paper in 2013, so the county payments will cover a little more than one-third of the total costs, according to Dale Shaver, director of the county Parks and Land Use Department.
"That's true tax relief," Shaver said. A dozen other municipalities do not participate in the county program.
The City of Waukesha, the county's most populous community, will get a check in the amount of $297,518 for its share of the revenue. The City of Brookfield will receive $212,634.» Read Full Article
Missing Waukesha teen found, back with family
A 13-year-old Waukesha girl who had run away from home was returned safely to her family Saturday afternoon, police said.
Last week, the authorities had asked for assistance in finding the girl. Police worked with relatives of the teen to bring her back to Waukesha from an unnamed community in central Wisconsin, according to a statement from the Waukesha Police Department.
Police are still investigating the girl's motives for leaving.
Waukesha police seek missing girl
Waukesha police Friday asked the public for help in locating a missing 13-year-old girl who may have used social media in a plan to run away from home.
Robin Cristina Cardoso, 13, was reported missing by her parents Wednesday, according to a news release.
According to the release, contact was made with the girl Friday via social media and foul play is not suspected.
Robin is described as Latina, 5 feet 1 inch tall and weighing 120 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts are asked to call Waukesha police at (262) 524-3833.
Waukesha police respond to 'rowdy' wrestling fans
The Waukesha Police Department thought they were responding to a domestic disturbance issue earlier this week.
Instead, police officers just found some overzealous wrestling fans.
According to the police log, an anonymous caller reported a possible domestic disturbance at 9:20 p.m. April 14 at 329 Born Place.
A caller said a man and female were yelling at each other and a baby was crying.
When police officers arrived they found a group of family and friends who were getting a "little rowdy" watching wrestling.» Read Full Article
District 97 state assembly seat sees another Republican, libertarian file
The Republican Party isn't short right now on candidates for the District 97 state assembly seat as Brandon Rosner is the latest to declare his candidacy for the position.
He joins City of Waukesha alderman Aaron Perry and former Town of Waukesha supervisor Joe Banske in candidates who have filed for the position. Perry and Banske both mailed in their campaign registration statements to the Government Accountability Board this week.
Whether the winner of the Aug. 12 Republican Party primary has a Democratic challenger in the general election in November is to be determined.
But they would face a Libertarian candidate.
Chuck Schilling, a 31-year-old self-employed contractor who is engaged to be married in October, filed a declaration of candidacy in March.» Read Full Article
Neylon announces his re-election bid for his District 98 assembly seat
Rep. Adam Neylon (R-Pewaukee) announced Thursday he is seeking re-election for his 98th Assembly District seat in the state legislature.
Neylon, who emerged from a five-person Republican field last year, was elected to the assembly in April 2013 during a special election. There was no Democratic challenger.
He replaced Rep. Paul Farrow, who was voted into the 33rd State Senate District seat in December 2012.
"Since (I was elected) I've worked diligently to represent (my constituents') views in Madison," Neylon said. "Together with Gov. Walker and our Republican leadership, we've improved our state's business climate, cut property and income taxes and made Wisconsin a better place to live, work and raise a family.
If re-elected, Neylon said his priorities are simple.» Read Full Article

Former Town of Waukesha Supervisor Joe Banske running for District 97 state assembly seat
A second candidate has made it official in the District 97 state assembly race.
Joe Banske, who spent four years as a Town of Waukesha supervisor before being voted out earlier this month, joins Republican candidates City of Waukesha Alderman Aaron Perry and Brandon Rosner as well as Chuck Schilling in declaring their candidacy.
Banske said last week that he was 80 to 85 percent sure he would run for the seat and after receiving positive remarks at his final Town of Waukesha board meeting from residents he knew he wanted to continue to serve in a larger role.
"It is official," Banske said on Wednesday. "Last week's town meeting and some of the things the residents said to me both publicly and privately and some of the emails I've gotten over the last two weeks started to put the finishing touches on that final 15 percent."
Banske, a mortgage banker/branch partner for Cherry Creek Mortgage, lost to Jim Radke in the Town of Waukesha supervisor's race on April 1 by 73 votes.» Read Full Article
Waukesha Town Chairman John Marek battles car fire in Muskego
Waukesha Town Board Chairman John Marek said he did what anyone else would have done Tuesday afternoon when he saw a wrecked car on fire and dashed into a building, got a fire extinguisher and fought back the flames.
The only fires he had ever seen until that point were in his barbecue grill, he joked Wednesday. But when he saw flames licking out from under a car and in the engine compartment, he knew the fire had to be put out, he said.
The car had just careened into the wall of the Starbucks at Moorland and Janesville roads in Muskego after a collision in the intersection. Another good Samaritan had already helped the 22-year-old Milwaukee woman driver out of the car to safety.
Marek said he wasn't afraid the car would explode.
"I was more concerned about the other people around. I had to put it out," he said.» Read Full Article

Fallen incumbents reflect on Town of Waukesha's heated politics
Elections haven't been kind to incumbent supervisors over the last 12 months in the Town of Waukesha.
Supervisor Joe Banske lost his supervisor's seat to Jim Radke in the April 1 election. Angie E. Van Scyoc was voted out of the chairman's seat the year before. Both had been voted in together to the board during a recall election in 2010.
Combined with Supervisor Everett German also getting voted out last year and Mike Laska's retirement from the board this year, a new era has begun on the board. At least, it's certainly a shift within the town from four years ago.
"I think this will significantly change the landscape of the Town of Waukesha from a policy and potentially a structural standpoint," Banske said.
So what changed?» Read Full Article
Law enforcement warns of phone scam that bounces people to 911
A new scam has caused dozens of unintended 911 calls to Milwaukee police and other law enforcement agencies, beginning about 8 a.m. Friday, prompting officials to issue a warning.
Authorities are urging people to ignore prompts to dial 1 or 112 if they get a phone call or text message saying their bank or credit card was deactivated or suspended, because once they do, those residents are connected with a 911 dispatcher.
Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn said residents have reported receiving an automatic recording such as "your credit card has been temporarily suspended, dial 112."
"We're in the process of trying to understand if someone is trying to take down the 911 system or if somebody has a scam that somehow enriches them by having you call our number or if it's a scam that's gone awry technologically," Flynn said.
The Waukesha County Communications Center had received about 150 of those calls as of noon Friday, but the agency's system had not been overwhelmed and calls for real emergencies were still able to get through.» Read Full Article

Fantastic wig for a fantastic price
By EK
from Philadelphia
This is a fantastic wig that is easy to style. I am not one to spend a lot of time on a wig, so the ease of styling is a plus. And the hair holds the style like natural hair holds a style- meaning that it does not look false nor does it look like a wig and the style gets flat as the day goes on - but so does real hair.This wig is on par with those that cost $100s more.I will most likely get another one just in case this style ever gets discontinued.Excellent wig!

beautiful wig
By Kathyc
from Austin, TX
This really is a beautiful wig. So many wigs are artificially shiny and this wig has a pleasant shine but it's a natural look. I don't think it smells very good, but I haven't washed it yet so maybe when I do, that will be corrected. It's so nice to have something to put on when my own hair is having a bad day. It was really much more expensive than any other wig I've had but the natural look of human hair just can't be beat.
Not for me
By pattycake
from Central Point Or
I have given up on buying anymore wigs here. They are no longer as pictured, No style to them at all, I need a wig that is ready to wear, shake and style with fingers a little. All of the last 6 styles I have tried, are not even close to wearable. Going else where, tired of paying a re-stocking fee and shipping.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
By Pattycake
Hair feels nice and moves nice. However the whole crown looks unnatural. Can see the webbing.Front where the bangs start is not natural looking. This is one of the 5 last wigs I have had to return because of unnatural look and poor quality. Very tired of paying for shipping to and from because pics are not the same as the product. Went to a supposedly better quality wig with Cosmopolitan human hair.Very not satisfied.

Not as pictured
By Carrie
from Chicago, IL
I've been waiting for a while for Paula Young to offer a long-haired human hair wig style. Thought this was it and ordered two (usually order 2 wigs at a time). First, it was back ordered in the color I ordered. I was really looking forward to it coming . . . couldn't wait. What a disappointment! Both of them were just awful out- of-the-box (usually one of the two ordered is okay to wear right out-of-the-box). The crowns were bad--could see the webbing and very "flat" looking. Needless to say, they will be returned. I surprised about the other reviews that gave this style a thumbs-up.

Bethel Park should lower graduation requirements
Bethel Park School District is considering lowering graduation requirements from 27 credits. Currently, administrators have not set a number by which to lower the credit requirement, though the state's minimum is 21. Of course, students will indeed have the option to surpass whatever the requirement becomes. The proposal has a lot of parents up in arms and wanting more information – the most recent school board meeting about this was standing room only.
We see nothing wrong with lowering the standards. When students graduate, they have a number of higher education options, ranging from trade schools to community colleges to universities that have a number of different admission requirements – because not every student was created equal. Sure, some students will have no problems meeting and exceeding the requirements, but what about the students who perform at a lower level, those with learning disabilities or those who take a vocational track?
No one is suggesting cutting core academic classes. Rather, it would be the electives that end up being phased out by the students themselves – currently, students fill seven and a half credits with electives. We are willing to bet that this means that many students end up taking classes that they are not interested in, nor do they really need, because they don't have any other choice. Obviously this will be a cost-cutting measure for the district, whose 2013-2014 preliminary budget comes in at $3 million more than the current school year's, and needs to be reduced. But, money is far from the only reason that this discussion is on the table.
These days, high school is not a straight, four-year, in-classroom curriculum. Students participate in work study programs, internships, apprenticeships and mentorship programs, all of which will prepare them for post-graduation plans.
It seems like the school board has the right idea, and parents need to come on board. After all, education is not a one-size-fits-all concept.

Gas Pains Gets a Trip to the Woodshed
Last Tuesday I thought I'd mosey on over to City Hall. There was a public hearing to be held on the proposed designation as a Historic District that section of Wauwatosa Avenue from Warren Avenue to Watson Avenue.
I figured since that was my old neighborhood and since someone roped me into being on the Board over at the Wauwatosa Historical Society I might as well register a comment in favor of this proposed action.

Comments On Apr 15, 2014:Bought these as a cheaper alternative to holeshots and am glad I did. Had them for over a year now and tires still look brand new, and for as much as I ride on the road is impressive. I would recommend the purchase.

Comments On Aug 15, 2013:These tires have great traction on trail and track and you can pretty much buy 2 sets for the cost of one set of high end race tires. My tires are holding up great after 20 hours of rocky trail abuse.

Comments On Aug 12, 2013:For the price this are some good tires. Almost same tread pattern as the Maxxis tires.
These things will grip and rip when you want them too, but easy enough to break them loose when your wanting to powerslide around a corner.

Roamin' in the South Hills
Men cook to help end poverty
Men's Culinary Classic winners Fred and Trevor Kern enjoy cooking together and trying out new recipes.

Trevor Kern holds his trophy from the 2012 Men's Culinary Classic.
Snow is still being forecast and the air is often bone-chilling, but daylight stays around longer and that's a good thing, reminding us of the more pleasant months ahead. Longer days put a spring in our step as we look forward to the many activities planned throughout the South Hills.
A March family-favorite continues to be the Men's Culinary Classic, held annually in Hall #1 at the Washington County Fairgrounds. Sponsored by Community Action Southwest, this annual outing gives men, women and children not only hours of fun, but great-tasting food as well – all the while helping to support local folks in need.
Welcoming men and boys as cooks, the Eighth Annual Men's Culinary Classic will be held 6-9 p.m. Saturday, March 9. Tickets are $15 purchased in advance or $20 at the door. Admission for ages 6-12 is $7 and 5 year olds and younger are admitted free.
Plan ahead to enjoy samples of specialty foods prepared by local dads, grandfathers, uncles, sons, brothers and nephews. A variety of appetizers, entrees and desserts will be featured.
Attendees will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite by completing the ballot for the People's Choice Award. Professional competitive eater, "Big" Brian Subich will once again emcee the pierogie-eating contest. Jerry Jerico will spin tunes and WJPA announcer Tony DePalma will be the classic's emcee.
More than 20 enthusiastic chefs have signed on, a few are previous participants and former champions hoping to retain their titles. Palate-pleasers such as Rich's Blue Ribbon Potato Salad, Buffalo Chicken Stars, Key Lime Cheese Cups and Townburner Chili are just a few on this year's menu.
Returning this year are previous winners Fred Kern and his 9-year-old son, Trevor. Fred hopes to get the most votes for his Stuffed Cabbage Rolls this year and Trevor is counting the days for folks to try his Doritos Chicken. "I made Birthday Cake Ice Cream for last's years cooking show and won for "Best Over-all Dish," smiled Trevor. "It's fun to eat, and I love to cook."
First-timer Greg Guyton hopes to win the crowd over with his wedding soup. Although lasagna is Ben Gorby's favorite meal to prepare, the 12-year-old will tempt many who harbor a sweet tooth with Whoppie Pies, which Ben says are worth waiting to enjoy.
Thanks to Green Valley Packing, Albert's hot dogs will be offered free to all ages throughout the evening. New this year will be a photo booth sponsored by Karole Wagner of Celestial Photography. A minimal cost of $5 will provide two strips of pictures with proceeds benefiting Community Action Southwest.
Chinese and silent auctions will feature popular themes such as an autographed Mike Wallace football, Penguins tickets, baskets of gourmet food, pet supplies, spa favorites and adult beverages.
To register as a chef or for tickets to join family and friends at the Men's Culinary Classic, visit www.caswg.org or call 724-225-9550 ext. 408.

Despite what you may have initially thought, esoterica are the least important category of the paradigm after the most thoroughly researched scientific products. This isn't to say that the Esoterica category of supplements is useless, it's just that the products falling into this part of the pyramid are only work to their potential once you have adherence to basic training and nutritional principles.
With that being cleared, this article will focus solely on the products that everybody and anybody can have some physiological benefit from: General Use Supplements. I will cover Performance Supplements and Esoterica Supplements at a later date.
General Use Supplements
General use supplements are components that can fill the gaps in any potential deficiencies in your current nutritional regime. After all, your dietary habits are the foundation for success. If you can't show adherence to solid nutritional principles, then unfortunately, you aren't going to get very far and construct any substantial longevity towards your health and goals. So, our number #1 objective / priority when using supplements should be exactly that: to improve our overall health and well being, and to provide a necessary foundational base towards achieving our physical or aesthetic goals, whatever the endeavour. If you think there's any other way around this then you're sadly mistaken. Additional testosterone or exotic hormones won't cover a deficiency in the nutrients that need to be in place for them to take action.
Protein Powders
Protein Powders have been a popular mainstream form of supplementation for decades now. Most are safe, cost efficient and effective to use. But why should you use them?
Without dragging this out into a science textbook, here are just a few of the crucial roles protein plays in your body: it repairs and builds muscle tissue, strengthens immune system, supports a healthy metabolism, assists greatly in fat loss, etc. We'll cut it short there for convenience, but just know that it's not just an essential nutrient for survival, it's also involved in nearly every important function in the human body. Protein Powders simply offer convenience, ease of use and flexibility that an individual may not always have when consuming whole foods.
It's not only evident that protein is the most important macronutrient for the majority of athletes - especially those in physical sports / endeavours - but it's also grossly overlooked by the general public as well in modern societies diet. It has long been argued by nutritional experts and health enthusiasts that even the RDA value's that you see recommended on the back of common nutritional foods, are terribly ignorant of an idealistic protein intake and need to be revolutionised to fulfill the health needs of the general public. Thus, it goes without saying, you, as an athlete or an individual looking to transform your physique or improve performance, need additional protein in your diet - & if you can't get the necessary amount from whole foods (which is often difficult for most), then protein powders are an extremely effective method of achieving optimal intake.
Now we've established that every form of athlete or individual looking to transform their physique needs above average requirements of protein to the static human, let's take a brief look at some various forms of protein and how they may be applicable to your goals.
Whey Protein
You've probably heard of whey protein several times before and it has an almost unparalleled reputation amongst gym users as the most outstanding form of protein to supplement into your diet. This is because it yields an extremely high biological value - meaning it gets utilised very effectively in the body for important processes. Whey is high in potent amino acids (the building blocks of protein) that constitute towards building muscle mass such as the Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's). It is also rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and known to trigger a process called protein synthesis, which is a fancy way of saying the process of which cells build protein. Thus, it has earned a reputation as a "fast acting protein", and is typically recommend to consume pre or post-workout for maximum effects.
Reflex's Instant Whey has earned a stellar reputation as an industry leader in the field of protein formulation.
See more best-selling whey protein formula's here.
Casein Protein
Whilst whey has a stellar reputation as being fast acting, casein is the exact polar opposite in the sense that it offers great benefits as a "slow" digesting protein. Why would you want a slow digesting protein though? Well, the human body is unable to store excess amino acids unlike carbohydrates or fats, so slow digesting proteins have their uses. Liquid form typically takes around 7-8 hours per serving to fully digest, so they make for great use alongside meals or pre-bed to prevent a process known as catabolism (muscle wastage). Casein protein is also high in crucial amino acids and renowned as a great source of protein.
Again, Reflex's Micellar Casein has an outstanding reputation for quality here.
Blended Proteins
For individuals thinking this is all too quickly sounding a bit too complex for their own ears (don't worry, I have a terrible habit of being ultra-specific) you may well wish to just look into a blend of proteins. These are basically protein powders which combine blends of various proteins; more often than not, casein and whey together, and often egg protein. The best of both worlds, so to speak. They have gained popularity due to their versatility and cost effectiveness they can often offer.
Nutrisport's 90+, a winning combination of whey & casein protein.
See more best-selling protein blends here.
As a wrap-up for this section, I should note that not everybody's goal with protein supplementation is ubiquitous across the board. Again, this article is just a generalised view on protein supplementation - it doesn't take into account the multitude of individuals who may be better off with a weight gainer, for example, to achieve their goals.
As modern society becomes more and more dependant on fast food and unhealthy practices, we have an inevitable shortcoming on a healthy vitamin and mineral intake that is required for several important functions in the body. Popping a multivitamin is a simple way to resound that problem. Consider the fact that as we become more deficient in these area's of our diets over a prolonged period of time, common occurances such as a weakened immune system, more prevelance to disease & illness are all the more likely. From a health perspective, it's simply a nice reassurance.
I should also note that as most of you reading this are athletes involved in training, you need more than what the average person is recommended of typical RDA value's. Luckily, most sports nutrition multi-vits are already a step ahead in realising this so there's no need to panic.
Controlled Labs Orange Triad is my favourite multi-vitamin as it contains additional goodies such as joint support, etc.
More great multivitamins this way, folks.
Fish Oils
It's not an exaggeration when I say this: everyone should be taking fish oils, unless they consume quality fish on a regular basis prevalent in the omega-3 fatty acids. The reason for this is that it's almost impossible to reach an efficient amount in the modern diet so supplementation is a simple way to rectify this problem. Further more, maintaining a healthy balance between omega-3: omega-6's is very important, and it appears that too much of the latter leads to a host of health complications.
What do fish oils do exactly? Pretty much everything is the answer. They promote fat oxidation, moderate inflammation, promote cardiovascular health, inhibit fat storage, improve brain function, prevent disease (do I really need to continue?) and the research is there in abundance. It quite simply is a necessity and whilst it's easy to negate the use of a multivitamin through a nutritious diet, unless you are keen on eating plenty of fish then you should probably be supplementing with fish oils.
A total intake of 3grams of EPA/DHA is usually what's recommended, and slightly more so for those in a calorie deficit.
Reflex's Omega 3 is a rich form of fish oil. Yea, I'm kind of a big Reflex fan, as you have probably guessed by now.
More fish oils and EFA formula's this way.
Calcium & Vitamin D
These two come grouped together in this article as they're generally included together in a lot of formulations by general health companies.
We'll start with Calcium: Whilst calcium is generally easy to obtain through the general diet, it's recently came to the forefront of science how neglected it can be. Consequently, deficiencies in calcium often lead to poor bone health (especially those with high protein intake), and it's worth noting that it has supportive data to suggest it boosts testosterone and increases fat excretion (credit to Martin Berkhan for these studies).
The problem appears to that many athletes are now turning away from dairy consumption - an often brilliant form of calcium. Whilst some individuals may not respond well to dairy in terms of body composition, for the majority of us, dairy is a great source of calcium and protein. But for those who shun dairy, it may very well be worth supplementing with additional calcium if your multi-vitamin doesn't contain a sufficient amount.
Vitamin D is naturally obtained through exposure to sunlight. Sounds simple enough. But for those of us who live in colder climates, have indoor jobs, etc, problems start to occur with deficiencies. Research suggests that deficiencies lead to an abundance of health problems. Again, this isn't just something I'm recommending to athletes; this is a very serious issue that is imperative we rectify to improve longevity in our lives and general health. The following quote, courtesy of the Vitamin D Council, sums things up "nicely":
"Current research has implicated vitamin D deficiency as a major factor in the pathology of at least 17 varieties of cancer as well as heart disease, stroke, hypertension, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, depression, chronic pain, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, muscle wasting, birth defects, periodontal disease, and more.
Vitamin D's influence on key biological functions vital to one's health and well-being mandates that vitamin D no longer be ignored by the health care industry nor by individuals striving to achieve and maintain a greater state of health."
Whilst calcium deficiencies can be rectified with a few simple dietary changes, Vitamin D remains hard to obtain. Hell, you'd have to drink 50 glasses of milk to receive an efficient amount daily. & whilst sunlight will rectify the problem for most individuals, for most of us, it's simply not an available option - so supplementation becomes necessary. P.S - I do not recommend sunbeds, despite some people's recommendations.
So there you have it, the "bread & butter" supplements that everyone can benefit from and in some cases should be taking. Whilst some aspects can be rectified with simple dietary changes, the simple solution for some in a modern diet may be supplementation.
As for performance supplements such as creatine, BCAA's, beta-alanine, etc. Well, they'll have to wait for a later date. Hope you all enjoyed the article.
