Richard Mandella has much to look forward to in the immediate future. First and foremost, the opening of Santa Anita next Thursday, and down the road a piece, the return of Breeders' Cup Distaff winner Beholder, a cinch to be named champion 3-year-old filly of 2013 when the Eclipse Award winners are announced on Jan. 18, 2014, at Gulfstream Park.
"December 26 is the start of the New Year for me, when Santa Anita opens," the Hall of Fame trainer said. "It's always exciting because it's a great place."
As to Santa Anita and Del Mar picking up Hollywood Park's surrendered dates for extended and additional racing at their respective venues in 2014, Mandella preferred to see the glass as half full.
"I'm trying to be an optimist," he said. "I think things will only get better. I'm very excited about Del Mar having another meet (in November) beyond its regular summer dates. I only wish it was longer, because that is where we've really captured the public's fancy, and where the fans come out to see live racing.
"They get big crowds there and it's the most successful track I can think of, in that respect. I don't kid myself and say it will be the same as it is in the summer, but it will be as good as anything else we're doing, and maybe better."
Regarding Santa Anita, Mandella stands in full support of Los Angeles Turf Club Chairman Keith Brackpool in his ongoing efforts to improve Santa Anita's aesthetic on-track experience.
"Yes, other areas of Santa Anita need attention," Mandella allowed. "But it's the bettors who produce the handle that generates funds for other improvements, so full focus on attracting them to see and appreciate the new accommodations should be a top priority.
"Brackpool is innovative and progressive in his thinking, and that's what we need. He has Santa Anita moving in the right direction."
Beholder, meanwhile, has been enjoying a vacation at Peacefield Farm in Temecula. "We'll pick her up a couple days after Christmas," Mandella said of the 3-year-old daughter of Henny Hughes owned by the Spendthrift Farm of B. Wayne Hughes.
"We'll bring her back (to race), but it's going to be March, April, something like that. It's more than you could ask for, what she did," Mandella added, referring to her dominating, front-running triumphs in the Grade I Zenyatta Stakes and the Distaff, in which she vanquished champion Royal Delta and Kentucky Oaks winner Princess of Sylmar. "I couldn't be more proud."
This is not Mandella's first rodeo with a champion filly, having developed Phone Chatter (1993) and Halfbridled (2003) into Eclipse Award winners in their 2-year-old campaigns.
"She's got as much talent as the other two," Mandella said of Beholder. "It's hard to tell who was the best. The other mares had problems at three, so it's difficult to compare, because Beholder was very sound at three and developed into a great 3-year-old. The others didn't, but they had problems. As 2-year-olds, I wouldn't know which one was better."
Beholder will join up with Mandella assistant Julie Adair when she first returns from Peacefield. "Julie has a little place in Chino where she kind of gets our horses ridden before they come in," Mandella said. "Beholder went there after the (Kentucky) Oaks. Julie will pick her up and ride her at her place a couple weeks and then she'll come to Santa Anita."
Mike Smith and Jim Cassidy have enjoyed considerable success together in the past, which could continue at Santa Anita opening day should Smith pilot Holy Lute to an upset win for the veteran trainer in the Grade I Malibu Stakes for 3-year-olds at seven furlongs.
Holy Lute worked five furlongs on Santa Anita's main track Tuesday in 1:01. The gray son of 2007 Breeders' Cup Sprint champion Midnight Lute has not raced since Nov. 1, when he finished 10th of 11 in the Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile. Two races prior, he won the El Cajon at Del Mar in August before finishing third in the Grade II Indiana Derby on Oct. 5.
"The Dirt Mile was a very eventful race for him," Cassidy said, alluding to the four-wide trip in which he weakened and was beaten 17 lengths. "But he's doing well now and we're looking forward to this race. I think the seven furlong distance fits him well."
As for Smith, to no one's surprise, Cassidy had high praise for the Hall of Fame jockey.
"Besides being pleasant and easy to get along with, he unfolds a race early, he knows where he's going, he knows what he's doing and he gives you a good report when he gets back, win, lose or draw," Cassidy said.
Told he'll have to beat his buddy, faux nemesis Bob Baffert, who could have three starters in the Malibu including likely favorite Flashback, Cassidy smiled and said, "I've done that before."
Should San Onofre win the Malibu for Karen Headley, it would mark the first time a father and his daughter trainer captured the prestigious event. Karen's dad, Bruce Headley, who bred San Onofre, won the 2009 Malibu with M One Rifle.
"He's doing well," Karen said of San Onofre, a gelded son of Surf Cat owned by Bruce's wife and Karen's mother, Aase, who campaigns as Matson Racing. San Onofre broke his maiden at Hollywood Park last out by 10 ½ lengths on Nov. 15.
"My father won the Malibu with a homebred," Karen said, "so it would be nice to do it again and keep it in the family, so to speak."
Probable for the Malibu: Bakken, no rider; Central Banker, Joe Talamo; Distinctiv Passion, Edwin Maldonado; Flashback, Joel Rosario; Heir of Storm, Gary Stevens; Holy Lute, Smith; San Onofre, no rider; Shakin It Up, no rider; Zee Bros, no rider; and Zeewat, Rafael Bejarano.
Victor Espinoza found himself in an unfamiliar position when he rode Rookie Sensation in the Grade I Hollywood Derby on Dec. 1: he was on the lead from the start until hitting the homestretch in the mile and a quarter turf race, eventually finishing fifth, beaten less than three lengths.
Rookie Sensation set the pace for the first time in his career of six races. In four of five previous starts, the gray son of Unbridled's Song trained by John Shirreffs for owner/breeder Frank Stronach, Founder and Chairman of the Stronach Group, which owns Santa Anita, came from far back, winning the Grade II Twilight Derby at The Great Race Place on Nov. 1.
Espinoza expects a return norm for the 3-year-old colt when he runs in the Grade II Sir Beaufort Stakes at one mile on turf opening day.
"This race should be much more suitable to his natural style," Espinoza said of the Sir Beaufort. "Last time there was not much speed and I ended up on the lead and let him run on the front. I was forced to try something different, the way the race set up.
"But he's coming up to this race good. His best races are from well out of it. He's really talented. Everything went wrong for him last time, but Saturday should be like old times."
Probable for the Sir Beaufort: Gervinho, Rafael Bejarano; No Jet Lag, Joel Rosario; Rookie Sensation, Espinoza; and Tom's Tribute, Mike Smith.
FINISH LINES: Unusual Way, one of the favorites for the Grade I La Brea Stakes at
seven furlongs on the main track opening day, has two senior citizens for parents: the sire Unusual Heat, who turns 24 on Jan. 1, and the dam, Way Up, who will be 23. "Unusual Heat will stand again next year," said Harris Auerbach, Managing Partner of the breeding syndicate for the remarkably durable and successful stud, who stands at the Harris Ranch in Coalinga. "His book is almost full for 2014 but we've limited it to 50 the last four years," Auerbach said. "He is getting older, of course, but he's like fine wine; he gets better with age. The strange thing about Unusual Way, she runs as well on dirt as she does grass, and Unusual Heats are known for their propensity on turf." Way Up and Unusual Way were bred by Bay Area resident Tom Bachman . . . The Board of Directors of the Thoroughbred Owners of California have unanimously voted to appoint owner William "Bill" Strauss to fill a vacancy on the board created by the recent resignation of Dennis Cardoza. "We are very pleased to welcome Bill Strauss to the board," said Chairman Mike Pegram. "His experience as a businessman combined with his passion for horse racing make him a very positive asset to the TOC board of directors." . . . Christmas Shoppers alert: Champions! Gift Shop will be open Friday through Sunday, 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The popular venue adjacent to the walking ring at Santa Anita offers a wide variety of unique quality clothing and mementoes sure to please racing aficionados.

Swiss study in POZ Magazine sayingExperts Say Positive People on Effective HIV Meds Arent Sexually Infectious
Feb 3, 2008
Hi, I think your great and I read your forum as often as I can ... I just read the Jan 30th update of POZ and they published a Swiss study that says..an HIV-infected person on antiretroviral therapy with completely suppressed viraemia (effective ART) is not sexually infectious, i.e. cannot transmit HIV through sexual contact. I wonder if you have seen this and wht you think.. Does this mean if there is a condum break or god forbid forgetting the protection in the throws of passion - we ( I don't need to freak out- I'm a female who's positive)? Let me know what you think of this study
thanks so much
Response from Dr. Frascino

Positive People on Effective HIV Meds Arent Sexually Infectious (SWISS REPORT) Feb 3, 2008
What do you think about the news (published in POZ.com yesterday, January 30, 2008): Experts Say Positive People on Effective HIV Meds Arent Sexually Infectious?
This is especially significant for people like me, which happen to be in a sero-discordant relationship, Not for the sake of letting go of safer sex practices during intercourse, but for the sake of feeling more relax during foreplay and the occasional unprotected nibbling or oral sex. Is oral sex with an HIV positive person, taking HAART and testing undetectableconsidered safe now???
Response from Dr. Frascino
We've known and preached for some time now that having an undetectable HIV plasma viral load significantly decreases the risk of HIV transmission. That's excellent news for folks like you and me, because of our magnetic coupling (sero-discordant relationships). However, based on the scientific data presented to date, I'm not yet ready to make the quantum leap to claim that "positive people on effective HIV meds aren't sexually infectious." (See below.)
Dr. Bob
Transmission where viral load is undetectable (REALLY A NEW QUESTION, I PROMISE!) Feb 2, 2008
Hi Dr. Bob,
Have you seen the story, reported today, that Swiss researchers are saying that HIV "cannot" be transmitted from an HIV-positive sex partner to an HIV-negative sex partner -- at least when they are in a stable relationship? There are a few caveats, of course, but on its face it sounds like a pretty bold and nearly absolute statement.
Here is a link to the story:
I would love to hear your opinion!
Response from Dr. Frascino
Oh yes, I've seen it. In fact, the phone has been ringing off the hook since it hit the broader media markets. The statement in the Bulletin Des Médecins Suisses was made by the Swiss AIDS Commission after careful review of four studies that focused heavily on heterosexual couples and vaginal sex. The report suggested HIV-positive folks on potent and effective antiretroviral drugs who are adhering to their treatment regimen and who have suppressed their HIV plasma viral load to an undetectable level for at least six months and who do not have other concurrent sexually transmitted infections, are not sexually infectious, i.e., they cannot transmit HIV through sexual contact. This really is not such astounding news. We have been saying for quite some time that suppressing the HIV plasma viral load reduces the risk of HIV transmission significantly. To say that it completely eliminates this risk is still premature in my opinion. The current report did not provide information about anal sex. Also how does one know with certainty that his HIV plasma viral load is suppressed to an undetectable level at the time he/she wants to have commando fusion sex with a horned-up hottie? Viral loads can very quickly rise for a variety of reasons, including non-adherence to anti-HIV therapy, concurrent illness, vaccinations, emergence of drug resistance, etc. Are these risks an HIV-neggie is willing to take to avoid using a condom? In other words it will be very difficult to "certify" that your sex partner actually meets all the criteria listed by the Swiss report.
Certainly this report will generate much discussion as to its implications for doctors, magnetic couples, HIV-positoids, HIV-prevention efforts, the legal system, etc. I welcome the discussion, but I'm not looking forward to the flood of questions related to this story that are this very moment cramming their way into my inbox.
Dr. Bob

I recently installed a client PC (Lenovo M900 Win7 64bits i7 6700 3.4GHz 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD), upon which we are running iVMS-4200 184.108.40.206
The client complained about a visual issue in which there seems to be a 'pixelling' effect on each camera thumbnail in the main grid view
Having seen the client's screen I can attest that the thumbnails in the main grid view are affected by 'flashing pixels' . All thumbnails are affected, one at a time. It is as if iVMS-4200 is sweeping through all the thumbnails.
All streams in the grid view are set as sub/secondary stream views
I downgraded iVMS-4200 to version 22.214.171.124 : same result.
Changed screens : no difference
Updates bios, chipset, LAN driver : no improvement
The Intel HD 530 graphics driver seems to be already up to date
Other computers running iVMS-4200 on the same LAN are not affected by this issue
Any ideas ?

highhome had een nieuw webpagina ontwerp nodig en lanceerde daarom een wedstrijd op 99designs.
Een winnaar werd gekozen uit137 ontwerpen ingezonden door47 freelance designers.
We are a manufacturer and distributer of food supplements.
Our main product is a weight loss supplement called 'Confidant'.
Our customer base is mainly European, but we also have some coverage in North America.
More source files:
Females age 30-50 of all income brackets.
The page must avoid the template look, and provide an original design that attracts woman age 30-50 of all income brackets.
The design needs to be no-nonsense and feel simple and clinical (but not pharmaceutical).
Clinque and Elemis and Dermalogica are brands that have the authority and appeal we want to create.
The page must make use of white space but at the same time be able to clearly include the informational text.
No doubt various images and graphics will be required. We are willing to pay separately for these items, if you give a rough estimate when submitting your work.
The overall image is to show that while the slimming pills are very effective, we also offer free dietician advice 24 hours a day, food diary, slimming support groups. The brand are the pills, but there is backup support available.
I will provide further information in the next few hours (by way of the slimming pack we provide).
The most obvious point is that we need a call to action. Clients need to see how the pills will work, and how it will change their lives. No one is very interested in support, as it makes the pills look less effective if they feel there may be a diet plan involved, they need subtle reassuring ongoing support.
Current packaging attached as a pdf. I can also send as an in InDesign document.

Welcome to Mixology … uh, Wednesday? Okay, I'm well behind this time, but what the hell, right? The theme this month is Brown, Bitter, and Stirred, and it's hosted by Lindsay Johnson of Lush Life Productions. Lindsay, it turns out, has a standing order she uses when walking into a bar; it's this month's theme, and I think it speaks for itself.
The first thing that came to mind when I thought of this was the Boulevardier, the Negroni variant starring bourbon in gin's place. I freakin' love this drink. I went with Bulleit for the bourbon, Carpano Antica for the sweet vermouth, and to really be an iconoclast, Campari for the Campari. (I wasn't the first to post about it, alas, but hey. Kevin's a decent type of fellow; he won't mind.)

Equal parts, in my case 1-1/2 ounces apiece because I'm a lush. Brown, bitter, stirred. That Lindsay's pretty smart.

Apple has been emailing previous MobileMe customers, including iMore's own writer-at-large, Chad Garrett, informing them that complimentary storage boost they received during the iCloud transition has been extended again, this time until September 2013. Here's the email:
When you moved your MobileMe account to iCloud, we provided you with a complimentary storage upgrade beyond the standard 5GB that comes with an iCloud account to help you with the transition. Originally, this storage upgrade was set to expire on September 30, 2012.
As a thank you to our former MobileMe members, we will continue to provide you with this complimentary storage upgrade at no charge, for an additional year, until September 30, 2013. No action is required on your part. For complete details, please read this article.
Thank you again for using iCloud,
There was some confusion/elation last week when a glitch caused the iCloud accounts of previous MobileMe subscribers to read 2050, but alas the real extension turns out to be far more temporally conservative.
Still, a nice to have. Anyone else get their extension letter yet?

An illegal street race between a Lamborghini Murcielago and several Ferraris in southern Germany turned fatal yesterday, when the Lamborghini crashed and burned.
The Murcielago veered off the road, slammed into an embankment, lifted into the air, and bounced back onto the highway from which it came, whereupon it burst into flames, according to 7aktuell.de.
The two occupants inside, a couple, were killed in the ensuing conflagration, according to Bild (warning, you can see pictures of the wreck at that link. It's just pictures of a flaming and burned-out shell of a Lamborghini, but two people did die in it).
They left behind a child.
This is why street racing isn't just illegal, it's horrible, it kills, and it leaves behind loved ones.
Don't do it.
H/t to Kai!

#1 in basketball does not matter
Hey folks,
Michigan grad. Current Duke student. I hope we win tomorrow, and get #1. That said, after being at a basketball school for 4 years I would like to share some wisdom. To those of you who know basketball, none of this will matter. But to those of you who are michigan football fans (like myself) and recently discovered (or rediscovered) michigan basketball, a few pieces of advice.
1) A michigan #1 seed does not matter. Sure, it may be a slightly easier path to the final four, but in reality, not much.
2) A michigan #1 midseason rankings really does not matter. Seriously. This is not college football where only the 1 gets to play the 2. It is also not college football in that whoever loses that game gets screamed about by pundits and the public for being so bad. Be in the top 68, or the top 8 to get a decent arbitrary seed, and we are fine.
3) We will lose a conference road game. Or two. It happens to every school. Even if it would ultimately affect our seed, it really wouldn't matter. Again, this isn't football. You can lose and be very successful, and most champions do.
4) Those that say a conference championship matter haven't won it all recently.
5) Those that say a conference tournament championship matter, haven't won recently. Although sadly based on TV, we may hold this over the former.
6) It doesn't matter if Michigan is the best team in the nation right now (which they may or may not be). All that matters is March.
In conclusion, Go Blue, but honestly, lets take this one game at a time.
EDIT: the is a shitty, obvious, yet condescending post, even though it has errors. However to those of you who need more reason to neg this thread, I'd like to share my personal recollection of coahc K's bagel order, as I stood behind him on one early moring:
-he ordered a dozen.
- 4 poppy seed, 4 seasame, and 4 cinamon raisin. most boring bagels you can order.
- the server had to tell him he got a baker's dozen.
- he apparantly goes there often.

House Speaker John Boehner canceled last night's vote on his Plan B to avoid the fiscal cliff. Boehner didn't have the Republican votes to pass the proposed legislation, and with no plan C on the horizon before the holiday, we're edging closer to a freefall that will impact low-income Americans.
People who have been out of work for a while, are the tip of the spear among those who will be impacted by the government's failure to come up with a budget.
"So, the biggest impact on the first day will really be for workers who are out of work and collecting unemployment benefits," says Sharon Parrott, the vice president for budget policy and economic opportunity at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. "Two million workers, at the end of December, would lose access to those extended benefits."
Elizabeth Lower-Basch, a senior analyst at CLASP, a nonprofit that promotes policies for low-income Americans, says if you're not getting extended unemployment insurance but you're poor, you'll feel the pinch gradually. She says spending will be cut by eight percent on government programs that help low-income Americans: job training programs, Head Start for pre-schoolers, and federal housing assistance.
"But again," says Lower-Basch, "it won't be all of the sudden that agencies are holding off on putting out contracts and spending money."
Another way the fiscal cliff could hurt poor families, says Parrott, is when certain tax credits aren't extended.
"A mother working full time at the minimum wage, raising two children could lose almost all of her $1,700 child tax credit," says Parrott, adding, that won't happen until later, when 2013 taxes are due.
"The biggest danger to low income Americans if we fall off the fiscal cliff is the risk of recession," says economist Nick Eberstadt, author of "A Nation of Takers: America's Entitlement Epidemic." Eberstadt says cuts to programs that help the poor will have a minor impact compared to the rise in unemployment, if Congress can't fix this.
All three experts agree that the real hurt from a tumble off the fiscal cliff will come long after Jan. 1st.
"I think the best compliment I can give is not to say how much your programs have taught me (a ton), but how much Marketplace has motivated me to go out and teach myself." – Michael in Arlington, VABEFORE YOU GO

La Liga: Granada 1 Celta Vigo 2
Augusto Fernandez scored a last-gasp winner as Celta Vigo beat Granada 2-1 in La Liga on Friday.
Luis Enrique's side took a deserved lead through Gustavo Cabral in the 28th minute but were pegged back by Youssef El-Arabi before the break.
But just when it looked as though the hosts would earn a point, Fernandez netted his third league goal of the campaign to make it back-to-back La Liga victories for Celta.
Cabral headed the opener after excellent work down the left from Nolito, but El-Arabi nodded in Fran Rico's right-wing corner to level the scores four minutes before the interval.
With time running out, and both sides looking happy with a point, Celta snatched all three through Fernandez.
Substitute Michael Krohn-Delhi's low cross was palmed into the path of the striker and he poked the ball under Roberto from six yards.
The win moves Celta above their opponents in the table and into 11th place in the Spanish top flight.

Speed Lust - Ford and Mustang Performance Parts - July 2014
Feed the Urge for Automotive Adrenaline
Foxy Fuel
If your Fox Mustang needs more fuel, or if you're working on returning your Fox to the street after an extended hibernation and need new fuel system components, check out Latemodel Restoration's new SVE high-performance fuel-line kit for '87-'93 Mustangs. This kit replaces your damaged, rusted, or non-existent fuel lines with quality, stainless steel, pre-bent tubing, and a high-flow Aeromotive fuel pump. This kit is ideal for V-8 conversions and Coyote-swap cars, as well.
Sultans of Coyote
To provide increased Coyote spark, Performance Distributors (Davis Unified Ignition) introduces its new S.O.S. (Sultans of Spark) ignition coils. Designed for '11-current GTs and Coyote swaps, Performance Distributors tells us the new technology in these coils allows you to open up the plug gap to 0.055-inch, reportedly burning the fuel more completely, which in turn is supposed to increase power and performance. These coils are said to produce 40,000 volts under load, compared to the stock coils' 25,000 volts, according to Performance Distributors. These coils are compatible with flash devices and handheld programmers, and feature thermal epoxy leads to improve heat transfer and vibration resistance. The S.O.S. coils are designed with enhanced windings, and mount in the stock location. The coils' additional energy are designed to produce quicker starting, a smoother idle, and instant throttle response.
Hip Seats
If the donut shop is a regular stop on your morning commute, Corbeau's new Sportline RRB seat needs to be in your future. Unlike many aftermarket seats designed for skinny-jean-wearing Hollister shoppers, the RRB will fit up to a 38-inch waist, and it'll keep you there, too. Corbeau's Sportline series of seats is designed to give you the comfort of a convential Corbeau seat with the lateral support of the company's race offerings. The Sportline RRB seat gives the look and performance of a fixed race seat with the convenience of a reclining seat. These seats combine comfort, style, and support into one design thanks to injection-molded foam, strategically placed bolsters, and harness-belt capability. The Sportline RRB seat is available in a black cloth with a black carbon-fiber vinyl contrast.

We have loved Auto Meter Ultimate Playback tachs for years, but the company's new Ultimate III and Ultimate DL offerings place the power of more advanced Data Acquisition systems in an affordable, convenient, and compact package. The Ultimate III is 30-percent lighter than the earlier versions, and combines high accuracy, four-stage shift-light control, advanced LED backlighting for improved visibility, reduced electrical system draw, and resistance to vibration and tire shake. The Ultimate III also benefits from a new and improved ARMS (Automatic Recording Memory Start) system for worry-free driver operation, playback data right on the tach itself, or easily download it to DatePro analysis software, which is the same as found on professional Stack Motorsports data acquisition systems. There are many more features to the Ultimate III, and the Ultimate DL utlizes these features, but also provides connections for and the ability to record wideband air/fuel ratio and pressure channel data to further aid in performance tuning.
Ultimate III is 30-percent lighter than the earlier versions...
Strange Caps
To help keep your Mustang's 8.8 rear end together, you need a strong pair of main caps. Fortunately for all of us, Strange Engineering has these billet-aluminum main caps, which are designed with increased rigidity and strength in mind. These main caps are made from 2024-T351 aluminum to reduce deflection, improve gear and bearing life, and increase the overall strength of the OEM 8.8 housing in your Mustang. Each pair of Strange's billet-aluminum main caps is supplied with main cap bolts and detailed instructions for machining.
Gentle Cleaner
We've all used a wheel cleaner only to discover it wasn't meant to be used on our wheels. Those days are in the past thanks to Eagle One's PVD and Aluminum Wheel Cleaner. This Eagle One gentle, pH-balanced wheel cleaner is designed specifically for aluminum and PVD wheels. Eagle One says it's the only wheel cleaner on the market that is manufacturer-recommended. Featuring a thick, clinging foam formula, this product reportedly easily removes dirt, grime, and brake dust. Eagle One put this cleaner through a battery of tests to make sure it performed without risk to your wheels, and to make sure it can be trusted for a gentle, safe, and thorough cleaning.
Spiral Power
AFIS's new spiral-core ignition wire sets are designed to mimic the tight spiral thrown by an NFL quarterback. With a tight spiral, the football will reach its intended target more efficiently. In the same form, AFIS's new ignition wire sets are designed to deliver the most power possible from the distributor or coil to the spark plugs, while still maintaining RFI/EMI suppression qualities. These wires contribute very low resistance, 50 Ohms per foot, AFIS says. In addition, these wire sets feature a jacket that promises to be the best combination of low- and high-temperature performance. The jackets are also designed to be resistant to dielectrical failure, particularly effective against underhood fluids like oil, brake fluid, and transmission fluid.
Sensored Hole
Burns Stainless has these oxygen sensor bungs ready to go on your Mustang and help you tune the car's combination to the nth degree. (We resisted any Cornholio references in the title.) Most often, when a oxygen sensor bung needs to be added to an exhaust system, it's for a wideband sensor to help get a full grasp on a Mustang's air/fuel ratio. Dialing in an accurate air/fuel ratio will aid in tuning to make sure your Mustang's combination will continue to put a smile on your face. Burns has bungs in 2- and 3-inch varieties for 18mm sensor applications in 304 stainless steel, and even carries the plugs needed to close up the bung if it's only needed temporarily. The 2- and 3-inch bungs will fit up to a 1⁄4-inch larger or smaller pipe diameters.
Shelby Pipes
Continuing its trend of performance parts, Lethal Performance now has both an H-pipe and an X-shape crossover pipe for '11-'14 Shelby GT500s. Both are 3-inch designs aimed at improving performance and sound. Each is made from mandrel-bent, 3-inch T304 stainless steel, and offers easy bolt-on installation in less than hour. The pipes don't need any welding, but Lethal does say it is best to have the car tuned for the pipes since they are sans catalytic converters. Without a custom tune, these pipes will throw a Check Engine light, along with dumping fuel into the mixture, which will negatively impact performance and power increases.
Licensed Billet
If you'd like to bling up your Mustang's engine compartment, check out AmericanMuscle.com's new line of Modern Billet products. A full line of billet products aimed at dressing up your Mustang is available, and the pieces are even Ford-licensed, as well. Seen here is Modern Billet's washer fluid cap, power steering cap, oil cap, and radiator cap, which are designed for '10-'14 Mustang GTs and wear the red, white, and blue Tri-Bar logo. If you don't own a '10-'14 GT, don't lose hope. Modern Billet items cover other Mustang generations, including Fox Mustangs. Search American Muscle's website for pieces for your favorite Mustang.
Corn Fed
If your Mustang runs on E85 or you're planning on making the switch to corn, you need to take a look at AEM's new center inlet E85 high-flow, in-tank fuel pump for '85-'97 Mustangs. This pump is ideal for both naturally aspirated and forced induction applications, and has proven compatible with ethanol fuels up to E100, methanol fuels up to M100, and all types of gasoline. Each pump is tested to flow 320 lph at 43 psi, and the kit comes with the pump, pre-filter, hose, clamps, and flying lead. Of course, AEM says flow capability depends on fuel hose diameter and electrical voltage to the pump, so make sure the rest of your Mustang's fuel system is up to the task of delivering E85, as well.
Improved Mount
Hey, look, a part for a New Edge Mustang. This is Prothane's new and improved transmisssion crossmember kit for '99-'04 Mustangs. This new kit is designed specifically to make the installation simple. No fabrication is needed to complete the conversion, as this kit is precision-fit to bolt right on. The fully-adjustable feature allows for OEM tolerances, while Prothane's interlocked urethane #6-1605 trans mount is designed to absorb vibration and shock. The crossmember kit is made from heavy gauge, gold-anodized steel.

An OB-GYN in St. Louis has inadvertently ignited an Internet flame war by venting about a tardy patient on her Facebook page. Dr. Amy Dunbar posted, "I have a patient who has chosen to either no-show or be late (sometimes hours) for all of her prenatal visits, ultrasounds and NSTs. She is now three hours late for her induction. May I show up late for her delivery?"
The hospital reprimanded her for her "unprofessional conduct," but some people are saying that's not enough and she should be fired for violating doctor/patient confidentiality (she also posted that the woman had had a stillbirth -- although I'm not sure how they figured that out if no names were used).
Or, maybe everyone could take a chill pill and realize that if someone doesn't want to be called out for being late, they should strive for punctuality. So maybe this doctor shouldn't have posted her complaint publically, but it's definitely not a health privacy issue.
Most of us kibitz about stuff on Facebook. It's a great venting forum, and smart people don't use names. Really smart people inject humor. Dr. Dunbar was frustrated with her perpetually late patient, so she made a joke about it and shared it with her friends online. Why are patients allowed to complain about doctors being late, but not the other way around?
This whole thing is being blown out of proportion, and she should definitely not lose her job over it. She got in trouble at work, and the hospital even went back and combed through several months of posts to see if there were any other ethical violations.
The thing about social media is that it's social. We use it to connect to one another, and once we start saying that we can't complain about our crappy days and get some sympathy from friends, we're denying ourselves the human experience. Like it or not, social networks are the new water cooler. Just be careful with what you say, because the digital equivalent of, "She's standing right behind me, isn't she?" is much more prevalent online than in real life.
Do you think this doctor should be fired for posting on Facebook that her patient was late (again)?

Chocolate Gelato
August 14th, 2008 | Category: Chocolate, Ice Cream & Sorbet
I have to admit that I didn't have high hopes when I first spotted this Chocolate Gelato recipe at Saveur online. One of their weekly newsletters had this photo of Pistachio and Chocolate Gelato combo that was out of this world. Then I read the recipe and said to myself: "Milk and cocoa only? And cornstarch? Really? No "real" chocolate? No cream?" Furious, I did what every adventurous ...

On a beautiful windy fall day, the East Hampton High School boys soccer team took Shoreham-Wading River to school here by a score of 4-0.
Saturday's was as good a game as the team has played this season — smooth sailing for the entire 80 minutes, leaving only superlatives in its wake.
"We dominated today, playing our style," said a very proud Rich King, East Hampton's coach, afterward. "J.C. [Jean Carlos Barrientos] played a great game today." The center midfielder had the ice-breaking goal in the first half and an assist in the second.
And so, for that matter, did everyone else. The Bonackers, who, as a result, clinched a playoff berth with four regular season games to play, were all over the ball, attacking relentlessly and marking their opponents closely whenever they had — however briefly — possession.
Shoreham, which had played East Hampton to a scoreless tie the first time around, had a strong wind at its back in the first half, enabling goal kicks to sail half the length of the field and throw-ins to float 25 or so yards, but, thanks to East Hampton's spirited defense, the Wildcats could not take advantage.
Despite attacking repeatedly, the Bonackers couldn't utterly penetrate the Wildcats' defense until, with a minute left to play in the second half, Mario Olaya, presented with a free kick from the 15 yard mark, dished off to Jean Carlos Barrientos, who scissor-kicked a thrilling goal into Shoreham's nets, the visitors' goalie looking back helplessly as the ball zipped over the line into the nets.
"Now the goals will start to pour in," a spectator said as the teams switched sides following the halftime break.
And indeed they did, as Bonac's forwards found each other time and again with crisp give-and-go passing, working the ball rapidly down the field in groupings that frequently included Barrientos, Esteban Valverde, Milton Farez, and Olaya.
A perfect Valverde-to-Olaya-to-Farez exchange in the 46th minute resulted in East Hampton's second goal of the afternoon, by Farez, who angled the ball in right to left.
In the 59th minute, it was Olaya's turn, following a long goal kick by Bonac's keeper, Esteban Aguilar, countering a Shoreham attack. The play began with a breakaway by Barrientos, whose cross found Olaya dashing in for the kill at the far post.
That made it 3-0, though East Hampton was not content to let it remain that way. The team continued to put the pressure on. With 7 minutes remaining, and with King having begun to substitute liberally in the final 18, Olaya stutter-stepped and shot just wide of the cage, and 30 seconds later, Valverde also shot wide, capping a play in which four players touched the ball.
But in the 76th minute, a throw-in in Shoreham's end wound up on the feet of Farez, who, after juking a defender, crossed the ball into the far left corner of the nets to cap the rout.
As a result of the heady win, East Hampton's record improved to 9-1-1. "We still have four games left," said King, "and we need to win all of them if we want the number-one seed in the county tournament. . . . We're happy with our performance, but we're not satisfied yet."
The tournament is to begin Nov. 3.
Earlier Saturday, from noon to 2 p.m., King and his assistants, Don McGovern and Steve Tseperkas, who is the 9-2 junior varsity's coach, held a clinic for the area's middle schoolers, attracting about 15 of them from Springs and the East Hampton Middle School.
"It went well," said King, "though I'd like to get 40 when we do this next year. Maybe we should have gotten the word out sooner."
A number of the clinic-takers stayed on to see the varsity play.

This is Vegas, the former Midway project being developed by Surreal Software, may not be canceled after all.
It must be a joke, a bad one. This is Vegas is in the limbo for such a long time that nobody hopes for anything good to come out from it anymore. Now someone says it will be a PS4 title? Very convenient. cmon...
I wish people wouldn't post news articles on April's Fools because I don't know what to believe
lol! I remember talking about this game when I was anticipating MGS3. And MGS3 was nowhere near being released. Damn that was a while ago. FAKE!
I didn't even know it was cancelled.
I thought it was one of those bad games (like Haze) that got overhyped, released, and then went straight to the bargain bin.

Two new coasters have rolled into Orlando. White Lightning and Freedom Flyer are now open to guests and are part of Fun Spot America's $25-million expansion plan.
Neither ride falls into the world's fastest, tallest, longest or most dramatic categories. But they manage to put more of the namesake fun into Fun Spot, near International Drive.
Walk toward the lightning
One title that White Lightning can claim immediately is "only wooden coaster in Orlando."
It certainly looks the part, with an out-and-back route and bright, white support structure. Lightning has an L-shaped design, with one leg consisting mainly of the big lift hill and the other featuring hills and valleys with sharp, throw-you-on-your-side track twists.
It also sounds the part, with clack-clack-clack noise accompanying the 12-passenger car up to its 75-foot peak. From there, the car makes a twisting turn to the left and downward, a dramatic fall when seen from the front row. It seemed like more of straight-down experience aboard the coaster than it did on solid ground.
That coincided with my first of several "Wow, this is fun" moments. Top speed is 48 mph, but speeding by the surrounding area — including the traffic on nearby Grand National Drive — is exhilarating.
We rollicked with small air time — man, that tight lap bar was holding me down — out to the corner where the coaster banks strongly to the left to begin the return trip. That's when I was happy I had secured my keys and left electronic devices in the car.
Heading back to the station on a lower trek, I was reminded of riding the Racer at Kings Island amusement park near Cincinnati in my teen years. But primarily I was happy not to be tossed about too much. Other wooden-coaster experiences have made me worry about breaking a hip. White Lightning is smooth sailing.
Gonna fly now
For Freedom Flyer, I took a back-row ride and was rewarded with a nice kick heading down its first hill. That was an eye-opener. After that, gravity does much of the work.
There's a winding stretch that has riders dangling above Fun Spot's new plaza, and the ride gives a good view of the double-decker carousel and a new ride called Enterprise, which I heard two teens refer to as "the insane Ferris wheel."
The steel coaster is most intense at the end, with a spiral descent that elicited the most screams. That's followed by a curiously abrupt stop, but, hey, that's better than slowly gliding into the load station.
There are no loops, so no over-the-shoulder restraints are required. I am a known gripper, the kind of rider who doesn't put arms up in the air, but I appreciated the liberation of movement that Freedom Flyer gives.
Paying up
Both coasters will be part of Fun Spot's grand reopening on June 8. All-day bands will sell for $15 until noon.
Before then, guests can pay $39.95 for a pass that includes almost every Fun Spot attraction, including go-kart tracks. You can go a la carte, although $9 per coaster ride is pretty steep considering each is about one minute long. Parking — and just watching — are free.

March 7, 2008
Lipscomb's Lady Bisons played their last game of the 2007-2008 season, but they didn't go down without a fight.
They lost 84-64 top-seeded ETSU in the semifinals of the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament Friday afternoon at Allen Arena. The Lady Bisons advanced to the semifinals with a 73-72 win over Belmont Wednesday in the quarterfinals.
"My hat is off to coach Frank Bennett and his young ladies," said ETSU coach Karen Kemp. "They came out and played extremely well. We knew it was going to be tough because Lipscomb had played great basketball the last four or five games. Playing on their home floor we knew it was going to be a battle from tip to the end."
The Lady Bisons have only won one time in eight games with ETSU. It was the second year in a row ETSU has beaten the Lady Bisons in the tournament.
"Lipscomb played an extremely aggressive first half. We came out in the second half and kind of took control. I was pleased with our second half effort."
In their previous two games against No. 1-seeded ETSU in the regular season, the No.5-seeded Lady Bisons had started out slow. This time around they stayed close with ETSU in the first half, trailing 40-33 at intermission as ETSU's Nichelle Akers hit a lay-up at the buzzer.
The Lady Bisons never led in the game and tied it once. In the second half ETSU opened with a 23 to 9 run to take control of the game. With 7:35 left in the game the Lady Bisons trailed by 28 points, 76-48, but they never gave up.
"ETSU has been a difficult match-up for us," said Lipscomb coach Frank Bennett. "We put ourselves in a pretty good position in the first half, but the defensive pressure by ETSU was really outstanding. I am proud of my players continuing to compete to the end and what they have done the last few weeks."
On problem that cropped up for the Lady Bisons were turnovers. The Lady Bisons committed 31 which ETSU turned into 45 points.
"That was probably the key factor in the game," Bennett said. "It was not only the turnovers, but rushed and poor quality shots that gave ETSU the chance to run as well.
"We needed to be able to attack the pressure and make easy baskets quick or make some passes and make them play defense before getting a quality shot later on. It was a track meet which is not to our benefit." Senior guard Catie Woods went from the jubilation of scoring what proved to be the game-winning shot against Belmont to playing her last collegiate game.
"I'm done and I am not going to play any more," Woods said. "That aspect is really tough. But Thursday night's game was great. I am not going to take anything away from that game. It is a memory I will always keep."
Forward Kaleigh Gossman also ended her career. She admitted it was a disappointing way to say good-bye.
"It is rough, especially to lose like we did," Gossman said. "Everyone is disappointed, but no one can take the Belmont game away from us. When we look back we will remember the Belmont game and not this one."
Bennett is losing Woods, Gossman, guard Dana Carrigan and post player Rachel Davis. But the future looks bright with guard Jenna Bartsokas, a member of the A-Sun All-Freshman Team; post player Cree Nix, point guard Miaca Bowman, and forward Valerie Bronson returning along with junior forward Jilian Partin and junior post Katie Rollins.
"It is hard to replace that kind of experience," Bennett said. "We do have some talented young players who got some experience this year and we are excited about our recruits."
One freshman who surprised late was walk-on Kara Briley. She played eight minutes against ETSU and grabbed four rebounds.
"Kara really did an outstanding job of coming in for two weeks and learning what we are doing," Bennett said. "She was outstanding on the defensive end. She gave up almost nothing on the defensive end. She gave us a big boost."
Partin led the Lady Bisons against ETSU with 17 points and tied with Gossman for the rebound lead with a game-high nine. Rollins added 13 points and eight rebounds as the Lady Bisons held a 47-35 advantage on the boards.
Forward Michele DeVault scored a game-high 23 points. Forward Latisha Belcher added 17. Guard TaRonda Wiles chipped in with 11.
The Lady Bisons finished the season with a 10-22 record overall.

10 arrests, vandalism mark Seattle May Day march
SEATTLE (AP) — Ten people were arrested after participants in an anti-capitalist march meandered through downtown Seattle on May Day, vandalizing cars, confronting police officers and sparking minor street fires.
On Friday, Seattle Mayor Ed Murray lauded the police department for wrangling the protesters.
"Seattle police officers conducted themselves with admirable patience and professionalism during May Day yesterday and throughout the night," Murray said. "Their training and preparation showed: Officers kept order in our streets and supported the marchers in their peaceful expression of their First Amendment rights. Arrests were limited in number, and damage to property was kept to a minimum."

Protesters chanted against police brutality, among other causes.
Violence has plagued May Day in Seattle during the past two years, with protesters challenging police in the streets and sometimes stealing the thunder of much larger daytime events calling for immigrant and worker rights. Last year, police arrested 18 people from a crowd that pelted them with rocks and bottles. Storefronts in downtown Seattle have also been smashed in previous protests.
On Thursday, Seattle police were out in force on bicycles, foot and horseback, supplementing their numbers with officers from several other jurisdictions. Protesters started trash can fires in the Capitol Hill neighborhood. One arrest came after a brick was hurled at police.
The anti-capitalist protesters had no permit, but police accompanied them as they marched in a rambling circuit from Capitol Hill to downtown Seattle and back again before officers hemmed them in. Some tossed firecrackers at police, officers said.
Seattle police noted a marked uptick in anti-authority rhetoric leading up to this year's May Day events, said Capt. Chris Fowler, in charge of the department's response to the demonstrations.
Businesses downtown prepared, posting security guards outside, taping paper over their windows to discourage graffiti, and using metal coat hangers to tie down iron grates along the sidewalks.
The earlier May Day rally started in south Seattle and headed to Westlake Park downtown, with demonstrators waving red signs seeking an end to deportations and "poverty wages" and calling for a $15-an-hour minimum wage.
Fowler told The Seattle Times that planners had expected nearly 700 people for the afternoon May Day march. He estimated the crowd size at closer to 400.
Earlier Thursday, Mayor Ed Murray announced a plan to phase in a $15 minimum wage in the city over the next seven years.
Daniel Stender, 26, was at the rally holding a sign pushing for quicker action on getting to a $15 minimum wage.
"It's getting ridiculous. It's getting to the point where you can't afford things," he said.
The police department's blog said vandals spray-painted a few businesses early Thursday in the Capitol Hill neighborhood — a car dealership, bank, restaurant and a post office.

Was your high school experience as glitzy as the one in photographer Akasha Rabut's series Edna Karr? (The title comes from the school in New Orleans where the documentary-style photographs were taken.) We see cheerleaders, the dance team, and marching band getting ready to perform in these quiet behind-the-scene shots . Girls are applying their makeup, fixing hair, and sitting idly before they hit the city streets of a parade and come alive.
The series is a balance of high and low energy. As people kill time on their phones the scene is still. But when the kids are moving, Rabut captures the spirit of the performance, with sequins gleaming. The faded, low-saturation image are reminiscent of vintage photographs, and if it weren't for the cell phones, we might just believe it. This plays to a sense of odd nostalgia for high school, a time when many of us wanted to feel grown up but just weren't quite there. It was activities like the band or dancing that helped define the experience, and is a symbol of a relatively simpler time. (Via It's Nice That)

Suzuki Samurai Driveline Buildup - Project RocZuk WrapupPosted in How To on January 10, 2007
The Project RocZuk Samurai was part of quite a few articles throughout 2006 and the beginning of 2007, and through the course of the buildup we've addressed a number of improvements that can be applied to Suzuki Samurais and other vehicles. The project started out as just a few improvements to a stock rig but soon spiraled into a full-on build once the axles were pulled and the Samurai was put on jackstands.
Desiring something that stands out from your everyday Samurai, RocZuk owner and builder Tristan Clark took a variety of steps to ensure that his Sami would have a look all its own. The front frame section was stretched 6 inches and the rear 15 inches to achieve a 101-inch wheelbase. All extensions were done using 2x4-inch by 0.250-inch-wall square tube. The rear frame was cut in the center of the rear bumpstop mount since that area was the straightest.
For greater axle strength, Toyota 8-inch axles were installed and mated to a leaf-spring suspension using stock Jeep YJ springs. The springs offer a 2-inch width and are also longer than Samurai leaf springs. They were hung on a custom front shackle reversal and use custom hangers and 5-inch shackles in the rear. Front and rear track bars were also utilized.
The front uses a set of King 10-inch reservoir shocks, and a set of Bilstein 12-inch-travel shocks are installed in the rear. The 8-inch axles were set up with 5.29 Yukon gears and Detroit Lockers using Yukon install kits. The axles also received an All-Pro Off-Road rear disc-brake conversion and All-Pro Off-Road chrome-moly axleshafts. Front and rear line locks were also installed. For extreme low transfer-case gearing, we installed a set of Calmini's ultralow 6.5:1 DL Rockcrawler gears.
Proving that you don't need a million dollars to build a kick-ass 4x4, the majority of the work on the RocZuk Samurai was completed in a driveway under a tarp using basic handtools, an air compressor, and a welder. Also, most of the suspension components were acquired through parts trades, as well as the axlehousings and tires and other miscellaneous parts.
Almost any lifted Samurai has issues with the front driveshaft because of the angle at which it's forced to operate. The increased suspension travel creates U-joint bind. Also, since we'd installed Toyota axles, we required custom driveshafts with a Toyota flange on the axle and a Sami flange on the T-case. The Sami driveshaft flange fits on the Toyota axle flange but it's only bolt-centric and requires the bolts to be tightened more frequently. The Tom Wood's custom driveshaft uses a Toyota flange on the axle side and a Samurai flange on the transfer-case side.
A conventional two-joint driveshaft was used up front. In order to fit this setup, it requires a Suzuki front output flange from an '88.5-and-newer Suzuki transfer case. With this flange, the bolt holes are in the correct location, and all that is required for fitment is to enlarge the pilot about 1 mm. OE-style Toyota parts are used throughout the driveshaft, and it is designed to flex to 40-42 degrees. Also, the narrow diameter of the slip-yoke neck will help to eliminate clearance issues with the crossmember when this end is installed toward the transfer case. Because of the steep angles we figure on experiencing, a slight amount of vibration at higher speeds is expected.
For the rear of the RocZuk, Tom Wood's recommended use of a CV (double-Cardan) driveshaft to achieve the best driveability. Though the new driveshaft was a good fit to the rear axle as it was, we'll ultimately end up rotating the rear housing upward a bit to better maintain proper CV operation. We may be able to achieve this through the use of shims under the spring packs but will more likely torch off the spring pads and relocate them.
With the increased degree of suspension travel achieved through the longer leaf springs, we required driveshafts with enough built-in slip stroke so that they could get longer and shorter as the suspension cycles. The Tom Wood's driveshafts offer a massive amount of slip stroke for extended travel. The rear uses a CV driveshaft and an adapter at the transfer-case flange. The shafts were created using 2 1/2-inch-diameter, 0.120-wall tube. The adapter is machined from T6 aircraft-grade aluminum billet.

Bluffton Police Chief David McAllister called a recent lawsuit that accuses him of initiating a shoving match with an officer a "fabrication."
The alleged April 2011 shoving match capped off a falling out that started when officer Christian Gonzales, the plaintiff, asked for a transfer from a McAllister favorite, according to a June 13 filing in the Beaufort County Court of Common Pleas that names Bluffton, Town Manager Anthony Barrett, and McAllister as defendants. It's one of three suits from Bluffton officers still active in the court system.
Gonzales claims the town, under the direction of Barrett, botched the investigation into the confrontation, unfairly suspending and demoting him when the flawed inquiry turned up nothing while keeping officers silent through fear of reprisal.
McAllister, who leaves Aug. 1 for a job at a private security firm in Atlanta, called
the entire case "absolutely untrue," questioning Gonzales' motives. McAllister's six-year tenure saw major advances in the force's overall organization, including national accreditation, but at times was dogged by complaints within the ranks.
The town called the claim of a physical confrontation "unfounded" in a statement while Gonzales alleges footage of the incident was suppressed by an officer who feared retaliation for turning over the tape.
Gonzales says mistreatment followed the incident, and eventually he reported it along with the altercation to Barrett. But witnesses interviewed by town attorney Terry Finger feared retaliation because they knew him to be friends with McAllister, argues Gonzales' attorney in court documents.
McAllister questioned that claim, saying, "Terry Finger is a man with the highest level of honor I have ever met."
"I'm not buying any of that argument," he added. "This is an employee who apparently didn't get what he wanted and said, 'Hey, I can use the court system to settle my differences and make a bit of money.'"
In a news release the town said those interviews turned up nothing, but the suit claims Finger reported to Barrett that there was evidence of "contact" between McAllister and Gonzales but Barrett ignored those findings.
Finger could not be reached to verify that claim. Barrett on Friday directed further questions to Finger.
Before suspending then demoting Gonzales from senior sergeant in September 2011 for reporting "unfounded" allegations, Barrett delivered a poem and a story to officers about farm animals "telling the truth and gossiping," going on to explicitly deny accusations swirling around the chief about drinking and driving, an extra-marital affair, a groundless demotion, and the April 2011 shoving match, according to the suit.
The incident ended with Barrett advising the officers to stop spreading lies and return to work, according to the suit.
In its news release, the town called it "unfortunate" that Gonzales would stoop to dredging up baseless allegations long since debunked.
"Including those irrelevant and baseless allegations in this lawsuit is a blatant attempt to do nothing more than subject the Police Department, the Police Chief and the Town Manger, to public ridicule and humiliation," the statement reads. "It is unfortunate that Mr. Gonzales has chosen such a course of action after the Town chose not to fire him after his 'shoving' allegations were found to be meritless."
Gonzales fought the action through a grievance structure enacted after a flurry of complaints against McAllister arose in 2009, but a panel of employees selected by Barrett upheld the demotion. Under the policy the panel makes recommendations to the town manager, who is free to reject those findings. Gonzales presented no witnesses at his grievance hearing, according to the town.
In its claim of gross negligence on the part of the town, the suit argues Barrett was aware of at least 12 previous complaints of "harassment, favoritism, and other misconduct" lodged against McAllister.
Bluffton Today requested those complaints under the Freedom of Information Act on May 30 but has not yet received a formal response, which is required within 15 days under state law.
The suit further alleges that Barrett "knew or should have known" in 2011 about other pending lawsuits involving the chief.
Lt. Katherine Sours, hired in 2006 at least in part to help the force reach national accreditation, won $236,000 from a wrongful termination suit and a discrimination suit, which was settled in April. Two other suits from McAllister's officers await action in federal court.
The new suit formally charges the town or its officials with gross negligence in the handling of Gonzales' complaint and his subsequent demotion as well as defamation, whistleblower retaliation, civil conspiracy, and civil battery.
Gonzales' attorney, James Ashley Twombley of Beaufort, said it would be improper to discuss pending litigation.
The town has 30 days to respond.
