What's stood out so far in the Copa?
Michael Bradley was bad but maybe that isnt his fault
SCOTT PETERSON - Monday, August 15, 2011
Timothy Chandler and FC Nürnberg hosted Steve Cherundolo's Hannover 96 in a battle of last year's two most surprising teams while Alfredo Morales made his 1. Bundesliga debut for Hertha Berlin.
FC Nürnberg 1 - 2 Hannover 96
Steve Cherundolo was rested and did not play after for Hannover after starting against Mexico on Wednesday, while Timmy Chandler got the start and went the distance as Nürnberg failed to gain any points in their home opener.
A pair of first-half Hannover goals gave them the firm upper hand heading into the half, however the hosts stormed back, cutting the lead to a single goal on a Chandler-assisted score by Tomas Pekhart shortly into the second half.
Full in-depth details of the game are given in a Yanks Abroad press box report.
Hamburger SV 2 - 2 Hertha Berlin
Alfredo Morales made his Bundesliga debut playing just over twenty minutes on Saturday in a strange game between his Hertha Berlin and league oldies Hamburg.
There was a lot at stake in the Imtech Arena after both teams lost their opening matches.
Hamburg head coach Michael Oenning made three changes to the team that was whipped by defending champs Dortumund, bringing on young Korean striker Heung Min Son for Paolo Guerrero and new acquisitions Jeffrey Bruma and Per Skejlbred for Gojko Kacar and Tomas Rincón.
Hertha frontman Markus Babel opted for a more offensive approach with Brazialian playmaker Rafael in the starting eleven.
The hosts were determined to keep possession early on, while the guests were content to sit back and threaten on the counter attack. Berlin pounced early and often with former Hamburg striker Tunay Torun coming close in the third and eighth minutes, while Rafael put his shot from just outside the box in the 13th minute just over the bar.
Berlin continued to wait patiently, whereas Hamburg lacked the creativity and grit to break down their opponents. It seemed that every time Hamburg tried to push forward, their passes with either intercepted or off-target.
After Hamburg lost possession again, Berlin fullback Patrick Lell found some space to cross to Ramos, who only missed by inches in the 24th minute.
Then completely against the run of play, Hamburg striker Mladen Petric was pulled down in the box by Andre Mijatovic. Referee Wolfgang Stark had no choice but to point to the spot; Petric converted easily in the 25th minute to open the scoring.
Despite the setback, Berlin continued to amass chance after chance. In the 33rd minute, it looked like the guests were sure to score. But first the woodwork denied Lell, before Drobny got a hand to Rafael's follow-up shot redirecting it off the post.
Just over ten minutes later, the guests got their well deserved equalizer. Görkhan Töre needlessly lost possession in his own half, which led to a quick counter. Defender Andreas Ottl received the ball just outside the penalty area and blasted a right-footed shot to Drobny's right. The keeper did well to get a hand on it, but could do nothing about Torun's rebound, which the young Turk curled inside the far post.
Torun almost made it two in as many minutes, but his spinning shot was sent against the side netting. Shortly thereafter Mr. Stark blew the halftime whistle.
The second half started the same as the first, with Hamburg lackadaisically passing the ball back and forth, while Berlin applied pressure and countered effectively.
It only took a minute for Berlin to nearly score; this time it was Ramos, who juked out Hamburg captain Heiko Westermann with a quick step-over before his lofted shot rattled the post - the third time in the game that Hamburg was saved by the woodwork.
In a game that was marked by lots of poor decisions by Hamburg, it was Berlin who shot themselves in the foot.
Central defender Maik Franz and central midfielder Peter Niemeyer combined to carelessly lose the ball deep in their own half to an onrushing Son in the 61st minute. Son gladly took the ball, turned on the afterburners and powered his shot past keeper Thomas Kraft for a 2-1 lead.
Berlin was now visibly shaken after conceding the goal. Hamburg, on the other hand, was looking for the knockout blow. To stem the tide and make a last push for an equalizer, head coach Babel brought on Morales for Patrick Ebert in the 67th minute. It was Morales' first appearance for the senior team in the Bundesliga and just his second in all competitions.
But it was Hamburg, who remained in the driver's seat. Töre nearly polished off Hertha in the 79th minute, but keeper Kraft was up to the task to save the low shot.
In the 88th minute, Berlin got the point they deserved in a back-and-forth contest. Rafael fired in his corner to the far post, where Drobny tried to punch clear. He missed and Mijatovic made no mistake by powering his header into an unguarded net for the game's final 2-2 score.
Morales has to be encouraged about getting his first minutes of the season and has reason to believe that he can factor in coach Babel's plans for next week's game against Hannover 96.
FC Ingolstadt 04 1 - 1 FSV Frankfurt
Edson Buddle made the most of his substitute appearance for Ingolstadt against FSV Frankfurt on Sunday, saving his team with a late equalizer.
Frankfurt took the lead following a corner shortly past the half-hour mark, in a game which saw both teams struggling with attacking creativity.
Buddle entered the game with his team down in the 75th minute, and proceeded to head in the equalizing goal 72 seconds after hitting the field to rescue the point.
Full in-depth details of the game are given in a Yanks Abroad press box report.
SC Paderborn 07 0 - 1 SpVgg Greuter Fürth
Matt Taylor saw approximately twenty minutes of action on Saturday, but was unable to help energize Paderborn's stagnant attack as they lost to perennial promotion candidates Greuther Fürth in a tight game.
Taylor started the match on the bench as Head coach Roger Schmidt picked Turkish midfielder Mehmet Kara for the starting eleven.
Fürth came into the match with a two-game winning streak, while Paderborn suffered a 3-0 loss in their last league match.
Both teams failed to get anything going early on, and the game's first real chance did not come until the 40th minute. Paderborn's central defender Jens Wemmer picked up an errant pass by Fürth midfielder Stephan Schröck and controlled neatly before thundering a powerful right-footed shot on goal that keeper Max Grün did well to punch aside.
Fürth came out of the locker room visibly more energetic than they were in the first half. They began to control the middle of the field and forced careless passes from the home team and almost scored in the 52nd minute.
A string of one touch passes ended with the ball on the wing and at the feet of Schröck, who sent in a low cross to the near post for Canadian striker Olivier Occean. Defender Christian Strohdiek, however, just managed to get an outstretched toe on the ball to redirect it off the post and out of danger.
Just a few minutes later, Paderborn nearly opened the scoring themselves as Enis Alusi took a pass just outside the box, deeked defender Heinrich Schmidtgal with a simple shoulder fake and hit the crossbar with a right-footed shot in the 56th minute.
Fürth then needed only a couple minutes to punish Paderborn for their generosity. Schröck earned a corner in the 59th minute, which Fürth midfielder Edgar Prib took. Prib curled it in to the near post, where Christopher Nöthe lost Alushi and placed his glancing header inside the far post for the 1-0 lead.
Taylor was then brought on in the 69th minute as Paderborn piled on the pressure in search of an equalizer. The added emphasis in attack made Paderborn susceptible to the counter attack. And Occean nearly put the game to bed in the 78th minute, but keeper Lukas Kruse stopped the Canadian's strike from close range.
Taylor had the game's last chance in the 90th minute, but failed to really connect with his shot from the right corner of the box, posing no problems for Grün. Shortly thereafter, the final whistle blew giving Fürth their third straight win, while Paderborn lost for the second time in as many games.
Next week Paderborn travel to Dresden for a date with Dynamo, while Fürth entertain Edson Buddle and Ingolstadt.
SV Babelsberg 1 - 3 FC Saarbrücken
Amaechi Igwe got the nod in defense for Babelsberg, but the team found themselves on the losing end against one-time 1. Bundesliga club, and former home to US soccer hall of famer Eric Wynalda, FC Saarbrücken.
Igwe and Babelsberg had gotten off to a good start in the new season, capturing five points from the first three games. The day could not have started any worse for the home team, though, as Saarbrücken only needed three minutes to open the scoring.
Saabrücken striker Sven Sökler found some space in the box before cutting inside of defender Matthias Kühne and sending his left-footed shot past the keeper before Igwe could close him down.
Babelsberg's head coach Dietmar Demuth went to his bench early and brought on striker Markus Müller in the 39th minute. Müller repaid his coach's faith post-haste, as he headed home Igwe's corner to level the score in the 42nd minute. The assist was Igwe's first of the year.
Igwe got his name on the stat sheet once again in the 44th minute, after he got into a verbal confrontation with Saarbrücken keeper Enver Marina and cautioned both players, bringing Igwe's card total to two on the year.
Babelsberg was the better team after the break, but failed to capitalize. Saarbrücken made them pay in the 65th minute, as Marius Laux headed home a deflected throw-in from close range to put the guests in front.
After throwing everything at Saarbrücken for the better part of twenty minutes, the guests put the match out of reach as Kai Gehring danced around Babelsberg keeper Marian Unger and slid the ball home after a quick counter attack in the 88th minute.
Igwe and Babelsberg will have to forget about this one quickly with games coming fast and furious in the 3. Bundesliga. Babelsberg will hope to get back on track this Wednesday as they travel to Preußen Münster.
Jermaine Jones did not dress for Schalke's 5-1 thrashing of last place Cologne, as head coach Ralf Rangick gave him the day off after playing for the US Men's National Team against Mexico on Wednesday.
Daniel Williams is still feeling the effects of a contract dispute, and was not named to the gameday roster for Freiburg's 2-1 defeat to Mainz on Saturday.
David Yelldell looked on from the bench, as Leverkusen avoided a catastrophic start to the new Bundesliga season by defeating Werder Bremen 1-0.
Luis Robles had to watch from the sidelines once again as Dirk Orlishausen got the start between the sticks in Karlsruhe's 3-1 home defeat at the hands of Braunschweig. Karlsruhe will make the journey to the former East Germany to tackle Energie Cottbus on Sunday.
Bobby Wood was an unused substitute in Munich's 4-0 shutout of Aue on Sunday. Wood and Munich travel to Düsseldorf on Friday to take on Fortuna.
Preston Zimmerman failed to see any action in Darmstadt's 5-1 drubbing of Arminia Bielefeld. Zimmerman will hope to get off the bench on Tuesday as Darmstadt take on Wiesbaden in the Hessian derby.

The digital home has arrived
Intel has outlined its vision of the digital home, where consumers are able to enjoy entertainment and multimedia content anywhere, anytime and on any device.
The company has announced the launch of two new chipsets, which it hopes will help drive the digital home experience, by helping to unify devices, content and services through industry specifications.
According to Steve Nossel, country manager for Intel in South and Sub-Saharan Africa, the latest innovations will facilitate the design of a new kind of PC - the all-in-one' device with high-definition video, high-fidelity sound and wireless connectivity, which will open up a broader set of consumer uses for the PC.
The evolution of the all-in-one device has come about as we have moved from a home PC used for games and multimedia, to one used for accessing the Internet and e-mail, and we are now in the era of converged devices, which are capable of talking' to one another, says Nossel.
The next phase will be the development of on-demand services in the living room which will see the convergence of the PC and consumer electronics devices, followed later by the move to mission-critical services, such as healthcare, home control and security.
He says the key to developing the digital home lies in giving consumers what they want, which is a simple and easy device to use, a choice of content and the freedom of space and time in which to use it.
To this end, we are working on the concept of the entertainment PC, a new device which is simplified into a single box, in order to appeal to the consumer market, he says.
Government's drive to put PCs in schools is helping in this regard, as kids are getting a feel for computers at an early age and now want one at home as well. We have seen this happening in India too, where although a family is poor, it will in all likelihood own a PC before a TV.
Nossel says there are still some challenges that need to be overcome, such as making the installation and operation easy for the mainstream consumer, the interoperability issues of making devices from different vendors capable of working together, and the local problem of excessive costs for broadband services.
Another issue still to be resolved is that of staying within legal boundaries in terms of providing protection for premium content so that it cannot be illegally copied, he says.
Nossel says that to this end, some 100 member companies have formed the Digital Living Network Alliance that is focused on creating industry standards in order to overcome these challenges.
Nonetheless, the digital home is already here and it exists, and Intel's aim is to drive future developments in this new digital home ecosystem that is developing.

What are the different tap and die products used for?
Among the numerous types of taps, dies and threading tools we offer, youll find the following products for tackling specific jobs:
- Die nuts and die nut sets are used for cleaning up damaged threads on bolts. Theyre generally made from carbon steel or HSS steel, and are commonly found in industrial, electrical and automotive workshops.
- Die stocks are also known as die holders, and are widely used for cutting and threading (sealing) a range of metal objects such as tubing, pipes and rods. Die stocks are adjustable via three screws that enable them to grip onto various sizes of dies, die nuts and cutters, for the hassle-free creation of new threads or the repair of worn/damaged ones.
- Rethreading screwdrivers are a handy solution for use on switch boxes, conduit boxes, fittings and faceplates. Their convenient, ergonomic design usually combines a precision steel tap with a comfortable soft-grip handle, making them easy to use for cleaning and rescuing stripped threads on all manner of electrical boxes.
- Threaded inserts are stainless steel wire components that are wound to the shape of a spring thread, designed to provide a strong, permanent and wear-resistant replacement threading in various parent materials. Free running inserts provide a standard female thread, while locking inserts also offer a locking function for the female thread.
- Thread repair kits can be used to fix worn or broken threads on anything from a machine bed to an engine manifold, and our full sets incorporate all the pieces youll need to get the job done in one go, from drilling out the old threads to tapping a hole and inserting new threading. Kits are available to repair threads ranging in size from from M2.5 to M20.

Classical music, and the other creative arts, have suffered terribly from the impact of Aids. I have already written in these pages about the magnificent recording by Scott Ross (left) of the complete Scarlatti harpsichord sonatas. Here, as my small contribution to World Aids Day, is Michel Proulx's account of Scott's last years. The idiomatic translation is Michel's own from his biography of Ross.
From then on, he did nothing but tour and record, and from records to concerts, rapidly becoming the most media covered harpsichordist, to the point of attracting to the instrument, thanks to his performance, a variegated public of which a good part should never have got interested in the harpsichord but for him.The recording of Scarlatti's 555 sonatas was started by Scott Ross on 16th June 1984. Ninety-eight sessions were required, and the last take was completed on 10th September 1985. In all, there had been eight thousand takes.
But already there was an urgency. When Catherine Perrin saw him in 1984, at a time when the rumour about AIDS was swelling in a terrifying rumble, he confided with her of his fears. He actually had had bronchitis, the winter before, which had degenerated in pneumonia, and knowing that this was one of the associated diseases, he said he was "mort de trouille" (he got the wind up). And he added that he didn't want to do the test because he was sure to get confirmation of his fears. There may lie part of the reason for the intense activity which he spread during his last years.
In April 1989, he went to Rome, at the Villa Médicis, where he gave a masterclass for the French Television. One can see him very thinned down and weakened by the attacks of the disease. As he had no Social Security (Medicare), he did not take care of himself well, and it is also possible that he saw no good reason for looking after himself correctly. I have been told that he took whatever he could find as medicine, and one might speculate that (but what is it that couldn't be done with 'ifs') maybe he would have survived, with good medical care.
Actually, he was an illegal alien for the French administration who wanted to have him expelled, and would have, had it not been for the intervention of some friends of him, of which some influent members of the Regional Council for Culture, who represented the Prefect how silly he would have looked for the media, if this happened.
In the course of his last months, he was looked after by his friends, especially David Ley, harpsichord maker, who had built his second double manual instrument, and Monique Davos, who had been an assistant director for the first Festival de Radio-France et de Montpelier, in 1983. According to testimonials, there was a sort of competition between both these persons for the care of Scott, and Mrs Davos was an advocate of the use of intensive medication. It seems that this was the cause of a Homeric struggle between her and those who wished him to die in peace. It was James Ross Jr. who finally brought Scott back to Assas, by the end of May.
On the following June 13, he passed away in his little house in Assas. His brother James, who had insisted upon coming to see him, assisted him right at the end. As, obviously, Scott had prepared nothing for the circumstances, it is James who took care of everything and it is he who asked for the rights of his records to be paid to the profit of an organization devised to help young harpsichordists. Unfortunately, I could find no trace of that organization, if ever it existed, nor could I trace back Scott's brother who seems to have vanished in the haze.
After the cremation at the Grammont Funeral Center in Montpelier, Scott's ashes were dispersed over the village of Assas from a small aircraft, according to his last wishes.
Scott Ross died of an Aids-related illness on 13th June 1989, he was 38

Watching "White Christmas" is a holiday tradition for Jim Coleman. Like a lot of other people, the Stockton Civic Theater director makes a habit of popping the 1954 movie into his DVD player every year.
Watching "White Christmas" is a holiday tradition for Jim Coleman. Like a lot of other people, the Stockton Civic Theater director makes a habit of popping the 1954 movie into his DVD player every year.
Lydia Merriam-Pigg, cast by Coleman to play Betty Haynes in SCT's stage production of the beloved story, doesn't even wait for the weather to turn cold and the Christmas lights to be strung.
"I love the movie," said Merriam-Pigg, who choreographed a "Sisters" number for herself and her younger sister, Ailea, when they were little. "I watch it even when it isn't Christmas time. I love everything about it. I love Danny Kaye. I love the music, love the dance numbers, love the story line. I love Bing Crosby's voice. It's beautiful. The costumes are really neat. I enjoy the time period."
Even set designer Kenichi Takahashi, who was born and reared in Japan, has a "White Christmas" memory.
"I remember my mom watching it," Takahashi said. "We do know the song. We even learned to sing the lyrics in Japanese, in school."
He doesn't remember those Japanese words anymore, but Takahashi has become intimate with the English version of "White Christmas" and the other Irving Berlin songs in the musical about two World War II Army buddies who make it big as entertainers, meet two sisters who have their own act, then team to save the dying Vermont Inn of their army general.
"The first thing I do is listen to the music and try to expand my imagination," Takahashi said of his approach to set design. "I do like musicals. There's something about music and me. There's a connection. I develop a lot of good ideas listening to music."
He has wanted to use those ideas for a Stockton Civic Theatre production for a long time, but he's employed as an assistant designer in New York to Alexander Dodge, whose credits include the 2010 Tony-nominated "Present Laughter."
Takahashi designed the set for "South Pacific," a 2005 collaboration between Delta College and SCT, but this is his first opportunity to create for the company since.
"Having him design the set is really exciting," said Coleman, who scheduled "White Christmas" as soon as the rights to it became available this year for non-professional productions.
Takahashi, 41, had come to the U.S. in 1996 to attend college, three years after visiting for a month and living with a host family in Manteca.
His host mother, Judy Lawson, encouraged him to return, live with her family, and attend college here. He jumped at the invitation and began taking classes at Delta. He began pursuing a career as a teacher, but when he signed up for a drama class his plans changed.
"For a class assignment we could write a research paper or spend 15 hours working in the scene shop," Takahashi said. "As an international student, I was not fond of writing, so naturally, I choose to help."
He had no theater experience, but a childhood spent creating intricate paper art, including origami and building plastic models, leant itself to stage design and craft.
Encouraged by Charlie Kirby, who ran the scenery shop at Delta, Takahashi pursued theater technology. He earned a bachelor's degree from San Francisco State University and a master's degree from Boston University. It was during a break from graduate school that he returned to Stockton and met Coleman through "South Pacific."
Takahashi wanted to work with Coleman again, and "White Christmas," which runs weekends beginning Friday through Dec. 9, fit his schedule.
"It's a musical and there's a lot of dance," Takahashi said. "When you think of images, you also think about practical things. The first image that came out were Christmas surprises, presents, boxes. I'm making a big package out there, happy packages. I think if the audience walks into the theater, sees a set and it puts a smile on their faces, I've succeeded."
He's chosen 1950s-inspired green and pink for a package that frames the stage to showcase high-energy songs and dances, choreographed by Evelyn Barney, who choreographed the tap-dance extravaganza "42nd Street" in 2011.
"What brings me joy is the collaboration between Jim, Stockton Civic Theater, some of the actors I know, and Charlie and Chris Kirby, who are very supportive of me," Takahashi said.
"The point is the collaboration, what we can do. When things come together, I think that's the reward."

I had a great experience working with FreshySites on various projects – including logo, business card design and WordPress website design. The team was incredibly professional and very easy to work with. They were all responsive and the final products were exactly what I wanted (even better, actually). I will recommend them to friends and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone else. I plan on using them again in the future.

My visit to the Natural History Museum, London
Jaimin013 posted a topic in A Trip to the MuseumOn Sunday I took a trip to the Natural History Museum in London. I queued up before it opened at 10am and even before then there was a long queue. I have not visited this museum since I was a child and spent an entire day there (10am to 4.30pm - a long time). I was surprised as it is a lot bigger than I remembered and there was so much to see. This place has the most wonderful things and is an incredible place to learn. The museum showcases a Baryonyx, Sophie the Stegosaurus (the world's most complete Stegosaurus) and more! The moving Trex and Deinonychus are also really realistic in the way they move. If you like your dinosaur teeth, the Megalosaurus and Daspletosaurus teeth are out of this world! There is something for everyone in this museum and I would highly recommend that you visit here if you have not already! A lot of the dinosaur specimens are casts taken from other museums but they are still cool to look at. I had taken the photos on my SLR and due to the size of the photos I had to reduce the quality of them to be able to post on the forum which is unfortunate but it's the only way otherwise the photos would take a really long time to load. There are more non-dinosaur related photos that I will be posting at some point later on but may take me some time to pick out. Enjoy the photos from this section of the museum!

EITHER WE INSPIRE OR WE EXPIRE: New work by Liam Gillick and Nate Silver
EITHER WE INSPIRE OR WE EXPIRE (2015) by artist Liam Gillick and data journalist Nate Silver considers technological failure and its lack of visibility in a society obsessed with success.
Created as part of Rhizome''s Seven on Seven conference, which convenes leading artists and technologists for high-level collaborations, this web-based project draws on a selection of words handpicked by Gillick and Silver—such as THE .COM FOR MOMS, ASSASSIN VAPORS, DRONE CON, and WRAPIPEDIA—from a database of inactive trademark applications.
Gillick and Silver embarked on the project by taking one of the questions commonly addressed using statistical analysis—How can we reduce risk?—and inverting it, asking instead: How can we guarantee risk? Applying this question to the creative process, Silver observed that our understanding of innovation suffers from "sample bias": we have a distorted perception of the success rate of new ideas because only the successful ones, or the ones that change the game or disrupt an industry, are discussed. Thus, failure in creative production and innovation represents a "dark corner" for statisticians.
9 billion paintings by Michael Manning
The final work in the "Brushes" online exhibition.
Sara Ludy's abstractions probe the psychic charge of Photoshop
Sara Ludy, Acid Cloud (2015, digital video) embedded on rhizome.org.
Sara Ludy's video works will be on the front page of rhizome.org all week as part of the ongoing online digital painting exhibition "Brushes," presented by Rhizome and the New Museum for the First Look series.
For this series of abstract video works, originally created for the online collaborative w-a-l-l-p-a-p-e-r-s.net, Sara Ludy begins with images created in Adobe Photoshop using the "Difference Clouds" feature, which alters color levels in an image according to cloud-like patterns. This software-generated image is then imported into Adobe Aftereffects, where Ludy adjusts preset parameters to create these swirling cloud patterns. In part, the works are an investigation of the aesthetics inherent in the software tools—but unlike artists such as Cory Arcangel, who previously explored such "default" aesthetics in his Photoshop gradient series, Ludy allows more latitude for her own improvisation, seeking out visual complexity that transcends the seemingly mundane origins of her imagery.
Mapping Landscape Paintings: Joe Hamilton's 'Indirect Flights' on the front page
Joe Hamilton's Indirect Flights is on the front page of rhizome.org through Sunday, as part of the ongoing online digital painting exhibition "Brushes," presented by Rhizome and the New Museum as part of the First Look series.
All of the works in "Brushes" are paintings made on the computer and shown primarily online. The exhibition focuses on works that are derived from an artist's bodily gestures, rather than those that are derived from code-based practices. In the case of Indirect Flights, the brushstrokes in the work are actually sampled from high-resolution scans of landscape paintings by notable historical figures like Van Gogh and Arthur Streeton. Thus, the gestures in this case were made long ago on canvas, and only later translated to digital form.
Jacob Ciocci Paints Outside of the Box
For his contribution to the ongoing online digital painting exhibition "Brushes," presented by Rhizome and the New Museum as part of the First Look series, artist Jacob Ciocci presents a series of gifs from his New Expressions series. The gifs are viewable on the front page of rhizome.org through Oct 4 and permanently on the online exhibition page.
The gifs are made by printing material from the internet, gluing, collaging and painting it, scanning the result back into the computer, animating it digitally, and repeating. He has applied this practice to works that are shown onscreen, such as these GIFs, while also creating objects for gallery display, some of which incorporate video projection into the work.

Gov. Rick Perry's non-campaign for president is going full speed, highlighted by a new interview in which Perry clarifies his "fine with me" comments he made on New York's approval of gay marriage.
Perry, whose states'-rights stand on gay marriage caused angst among social conservaties, told Family Research Council President Tony Perkins that "it's fine with me that a state is using their sovereign rights to decide an issue. Obviously, gay marriage is not fine with me."
Perry also has "put out feelers" about the possibility of taking part in an Aug. 11 Iowa debate, Politico reported, adding that he didn't indicate he'd actually participate and is unlikely to announce by then. (About this point, Perry may be wishing he had a little debate practice in his last race for governor after all.)
More potential campaign money people were expected in Austin today. Earlier this week, Perry met with people from Arkansas, Georgia and Tennessee. Next week, the Associated Press reports, a New Hampshire delegation is coming and Politico says a group of Wall Street executives also will troop to Austin.
Tomorrow, Perry is scheduled to speak at the Western Conservative Summit in Denver, on a bill with former Sen. Rick Santorum (who tweeted after Perry's initial remarks on same-sex marriage, "So Gov Perry, if a state wanted to allow polygamy or if they chose to deny heterosexuals the right to marry, would that be OK too?")
The swirl prompted the Quorum Report's Harvey Kronberg earlier this week to weigh in with this assessment: "Gov. Perry is no longer exploring a campaign for the presidency, he is assembling one."
SMU political science professor Cal Jillson said he believes Perry intends to run, noting that he's "doing everything that would be required to put a campaign together."
He said he believes Perry is waiting to see how his Houston prayer rally goes, in case there's any "explaining and cleaning up" he has to do after participants there expound on God, man, Texas and the United States.

A – Today is my best friends Birthday! Hooray for Shea being an old as me. I cannot say it enough, she is like a sister to me, I'm blessed to have her in my life and can't wait to celebrate tonight. She rocks, enough said.

Basically my motto is, as long as I don't die this weekend, I will do a 16 miler next weekend, and then and 18 miler the following weekend and then I will do the dreadful 20 miler. Badabing, training complete. So this weekend, should be a test of if I can get through 13.. onwards and upwards! I also am going to wear a team sparkle skirt and be totally AMERICANA out for this race, which is oh by the way my most favorite thing.
C- OUR WEDDING AIRS ON SUNDAY! Exciting. Another sneak peek was released today! I am so excited and very nervous. It airs Sunday on We Tv Check your local listings.
D – I'm cleaning our house tomorrow. This gives me complete joy and excitement that I will have a nice clean fresh house after tomorrow.
The weather should be great. Hopefully I don't do anything weird on national television. Oh and I got my bike fitted! So I get to test that out this weekend too! Hooray for a great weekend and you know what makes it even awesomer… It's a three day weekend! Cha-CHING!

Eat Move Sleep
"Well written and scrupulously researched, this breezy guide lobbies for an all-encompassing approach to improving one's lifestyle...Rath's '30-Day Guide'...is clear and actionable." -Kirkus review
From the author of StrengthsFinder 2.0, How Full Is Your Bucket?, Strengths Based Leadership, and Wellbeing comes a beautifully produced audiobook and accompanying online application that will improve your health for years to come. While Tom's bestsellers on strengths and well-being have inspired more than 5 million people in the last decade, Eat Move Sleep reveals his greatest passion and expertise. Quietly managing a serious illness for more than 20 years, Tom has assembled a wide range of information on the impact of eating, moving, and sleeping.
Written and narrated by Tom Rath in his classic conversational style, Eat Move Sleep features the most proven and practical ideas from his research. Eat Move Sleep will help you make good decisions automatic -- in all three of these interconnected areas. With every bite you take, you will make better choices. You will move a lot more than you do today. And you will sleep better than you have in years. More than an audiobook, Eat Move Sleep is a new way to live.

Full of practical and easily implemented advice.
As well as this I find Toms voice extremely calming and relaxing. Well worth a listen. I'll be making sure to get some more broccoli in the diet from now on 💪💪

I'm conflicted about this
Parts of this book were a turn-off for me...some of the suggestions sounded unobtainable and beyond the reach or regular mortals, especially the parts about diet. Essentially, it seemed that if it tastes good, don't eat it - and I'm not sure that's good advice. No fat, few carbs, even "good ones," no sugars or sugar substitutes, so that leaves nuts, fruits (not too many!) and veggies, especially broccoli. I like the things he suggests eating, but I also like some of the stuff he doesn't.
The non-sedentary lifestyle interested me - I got a pedometer to calculate how much I was walking or active daily....turns out 5000 steps is a lot for me and I feel like I'm moving all the time. But that's sedentary - Australians typically walk 8000 steps without thinking about it.
Sleep I don't really have a problem with - I sleep well and about 8 hrs a night.
I realized about halfway into the book Rath was battling an unusual form of cancer, apparently not immediately life-threatening, but something that must be controlled. That changed my mind about his recommendations as I realized he was fighting for his life and had done much research. For me, that added much validity to his recommendations and told me that we should all be fighting for our lives based on what we eat, how active we are and how we sleep.
I may not be able to or want to follow his regimen completely, but I don't think I can go wrong to follow it as much as possible. With my pedometer as a gauge, I find that I am increasing my activity level, and I do think about what I put in my mouth before I eat it. I suppose that's a good start.

Great Tips, Well Researched, but...
I am a big fan of Tom Rath; Strengthsfinder was a book that literally changed my life.
I gave this book three stars soles on how Rath points out small changes you should make, and quotes research on why these changes can make a big difference to your health, well-being and life-expectancy. It's nice to have all of these ideas in one book.
Having said that, "Eat Move Sleep" falls short is in two key areas:
1. I am one of those Audible listeners who believers authors should not record their own works. At first, I didn't mind Rath's voice because you can tell this is a subject that is near and dear to him. Over time, however, I became irritated because Rath's voice (which is somewhat plaintive, in my opinion) began to really irritate me. After the first hour, I had to listen in 10 minute segments because it starts to sound whiny and "preachy," if you will.
2. This book is designed around a 30-day plan, and that is it's biggest weakness. Were you to attempt incorporating all of these changes into your life in 30 days, you will become incredibly frustrated and immediately start wolfing down donuts, bacon and hot dogs while chain-smoking at the same time.
For example, "Day One" of the plan recommends you should, "Identify the three healthiest elements of diets you have tried in the past. Integrate these elements into your lifestyle for good."
I like this concept; however, "for good" means "FOREVER." I can't think about forever, Mr. Rath; I'm just trying to make it through today! Habits are formed over long periods of time and require more thought and planning than is outlined here.
There are 75 different behaviors Rath recommends changing during the 30 days you follow the plan. Does that sound realistic? of course not; it's a recipe for failure. Rath's 30-day plan would be better as a 30 MONTH plan. Pursuing physical fitness is a marathon, not a sprint.
Again, you have to find a wellness plan you can live with over the long term. Use the 30-day plan to identify your options, then incorporate 1-2 little changes in your life over the course of a month or two. Solidify the habits, then choose two more for the next month. That is how I plan to use this book.

Made an immediate impact on my life
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I have recommended this audiobook to many friends. There are multiple reasonsI have recommend this book: 1) The book is broken down in a manner that makes it easy to implement Tom's recommendations for living a better life, 2) The material is straightforward, easy to understand, and research based, 3) Tom does a phenomenal job of providing memorable phrases that immediately impact the reader and are easy to remember such as "if you want to do more, sleep more."
What about Tom Rath's performance did you like?
Tom does a phenomenal job of relating all of his material to his personal challenges with his health.
What insight do you think you'll apply from Eat Move Sleep?
1) Everything I eat has an impact on how I feel and perform. Moving forward, when I want to perform my best, I will eat the best foods. I understand that many people may find Tom's recommendations to rigid to apply at each and every meal, but if you are able to make even small improvements on a daily basis then you will have accomplished a great deal. 2) Movement throughout the day is more important than I gave it credit. I am a health and fitness fanatic but I am guilty of doing all of my activity in 1-2 hour bursts 3-5 days a week and doing little at other times. I have begun implementing Tom's recommendation of regular activity at every moment possible and it has made a huge impact on my family. I take my dogs for long walks daily now, not only when it is convenient for me. This gets me out of the house enjoying nature and it is great for the health of my furry children. Speaking of children, I take every moment I can to play with my 15 month son. This has helped build an even stronger bond between my son and I that I appreciate so very much. 3) My favorite quote from the book is "if you want to do more, sleep more." Everyone has heard of the importance of a good nights sleep, and yet many people are getting fewer hours of sleep in order to "get more done." I am guilty of doing this and yet once I heard Tom's words something clicked and now I view sleep differently. I now view sleep as if it is one of my tasks on my to-do list and address it with the same sense of urgency I addressed those tasks.

EAT MOVE SLEEP is a small book, but, if you follow it specially the basics (EAT- right food, Move- many times a day, and don't just seat there, Sleep- well, at least 8 hours a day), you will live a great life and die old.
It really lifted my mood and when I finished it, I started to search for another book from the author, just to find out the his other books are even thinner. I will wait for his next book.

Excellent Daily Motivation to Eat, Move & Sleep
I enjoyed getting daily motivational tips to eat right, excercise more often and smarter, and get more quality sleep. I also bought the book, but I honestly think the audio version was more motivational for me, as it only took about 5ish minutes a day.

Life changing book!
Any additional comments?
Its a great book. Very easy to read or listen to. A great summary of many things we have read in the past, but combined into one single book, that helps us understand in a simple way how basics things in our lives connect. A must read for everyone.

Information worth hearing!
Some of this is common sense, some you've heard before, but Tom does a great job of making our health relevant through surprising statistics and credible studies. As with most of his books, the information is only step one, putting it into daily practice and customizing it for yourself is a necessity. Definitely worth a listen !

Proposed budget cuts to Racine's fire department has some residents concerned
The city of Racine, which has just lost three children in a house fire is now involved in a battle over budgets cuts to the Fire Department.
"We weren't able to save them and that's just a tragic, tragic loss," Racine Mayor John Dickert said.
Dickert is mayor of a city that's still grieving three children who died in a house fire last week. At the same time, he's dealing with some angry residents who may be about to lose Fire Station No. 5, formerly No. 9, to budget cuts.
"What are we paying our taxes for? I mean, that's school, police and fire. That's the main thing, that we need," Racine resident Joann Rendon said.
"I'll miss it if it has to go," Racine resident Sandy Beasley said.
Beasley said the station has been a pillar in the neighborhood for more than 30 years, handling all sorts of emergencies.
"Some guy last weekend, the weekend before, too, accidentally shot himself in the stomach, and he walked up there," Beasley said,
Fire Chief Steve Hansen said the city has told him his budget is being cut by $400,000 for next year, so, in his view the fire station and three important jobs have to go.
"The fire department is a core service that the citizens need to have to support their medical needs and any fires that occur," Hansen said.
Dickert said it's regrettable that the chief has proposed shutting down a fire house when he could have found another way.
"There are a number of options out there and none of them were explored, and I find that disappointing," Dickert said.
The public is invited to a meeting on the budget at City Hall Wednesday night but is not expected to be offered time to speak. At a meeting on the budget earlier this week, about 100 people showed up -- many of them, asked the city not to close the fire station.
At least two aldermen will offer amendments at that meeting to save the fire station. The full Common Council is expected to vote on the budget next week.

Director José Padilha's cast for the 2013 RoboCop reboot just keeps getting better and better. Pill-popping anti-hero Hugh Laurie from House joins Samuel L. Jackson, Gary Oldman, Abbie Cornish and Joel Kinnaman. He's the lead villain, and this news fills us with joy,
Variety broke the news that Laurie is in negotiations for the part of CEO of the evil Omni Corporation. Perfect! This is clearly the biggest movie role for Laurie, and we think his wit and wonderful timing will make for a perfectly horrible villain! And in case you didn't know, Oldman is playing the role of the scientist who invents Robocop, Kinnaman is Robocop, and Jackson will play a rich television bigwig Pat Novak. (Hopefully Jackson will utter the immortal words, "I'd buy that for a dollar!")
Perhaps most importantly, this news gives us reason to post the "Bitches Leave" statue designed by io9 commenter Belabras! You can have your RoboCop statue, give us a Clarence J. Boddicker bust! Robocop is slated to hit theaters August 9, 2013.

Friday's live updates from IMIS trade show
By Todd TurnerDirtonDirt.com managing editor
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (Dec. 7) — Friday marks the second day of the final International Motorsports Industry Show at the Indiana Convention Center. More than 25,000 attendees are expected with more than 500 exhibitors at the event that runs through tomorrow afternoon. Today's blog-style updates of interest to the Dirt Late Model folks: | Trade show coverage index
4:46 p.m. | Second day wrapping up
The second of three days (and traditionally the busiest day) is wrapping up as attendees began to drift toward the doors. ... We'll have more video coverage later tonight and a video recap of some of the new products through the weekend. ... What's the first thing someone says when they greet you at the show? Typically something about if you're heard any news. Or, as a reporter overheard moments ago, this exchange among a group chatting at the end of an aisle: "Any good gossip," one man asked. "We started a bunch," replied another. ... While trade show season is just about over, DirtonDirt.com's coverage of the 2012 season isn't. Our Best of 2012 coverage resumes on Monday and appears most non-holiday weekdays through the remainder of the year.
3:58 p.m. | Even more IMIS tidbits
Michigian Dirt Cup champ Brandon Thirlby of Traverse City, Mich., is coming off his best season with 15 victories, and he's planning for more traveling in 2013 starting with World of Outlaws Late Model Series series action at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Fla. Thirlby, touring the IMIS aisles with girlfriend Leah Salay and his modified-driving brother Collin, recently bought Billy Moyer Jr.'s two-car transporter. ... Brad Hall of Tazewell Speedway is working the IMIS show to write a technical column for Late Model Illustrated. He also plans a little off-season racing in a buddy's Crate Late Model at Talladega (Ala.) Short Track's Ice Bowl. ... Lucas Oil, which already owns its own production company, also plans to start a motorsports network in the second quarter 2013 showing not only Lucas Oil-sponsored tours but other racing series that aren't typically on television. The announcement was made by Bob Patison, executive vice president of Lucas Oil Products.
3:50 p.m. | West Coast visitor
West Coast Late Model Shootout promoter Chris Kearns was among IMIS visitors, and he's always a fan of visiting Indianapolis — a place he'd like to retire near in years to come.
For now, Kearns will have to be happy with a weekend at the trade show making racing connections. Kearns will be busy in 2013 directing the open-wheel USAC tours in California, but he'll have more time for the West Coast Shootout after giving up promotional duties at Santa Maria (Calif.) Speedway. He's glad to be out of the weekly grind with the chance to give California Late Model racing a boost after a few lean years.
"Last year we only had six races on the schedule, and this year I have 14 because I've had time to work on it," Kearns said.
The complete schedule isn't ready — a Calistoga (Calif.) Speedway date is uncertain — but the opening stretch of races is an interesting one. The California-based series will open the season March 1-2 at Canyon Speedway in Peoria, Ariz., and Cocopah Speedway in Yuma, Ariz. The tour heads to the dirt track at Las Vegas (Nev.) Motor Speedway for a mid-week show, then wraps up the four-race stretch on March 9 at Bakersfield (Calif.) Speedway.
2:53 p.m. | Working loyal sponsors
Arkansas driver Billy Moyer Jr. was glad to report he landed a few new product sponsors at IMIS, getting a deal with FK Rod Ends and another with Bell Helmets. And while he's grateful for new help, he knows the key to trade shows is dropping by the booths of existing product sponsors — especially those loyal for many years — for an appreciative handshake and heartfelt thanks.
"It's more important to hit those guys you've got than try to get somebody new," Moyer said.
With big-money cash sponsorships few and far between, all professional racers depend on companies that provide sponsorships with complimentary and discounted products that provide teams reliable equipment.
PRC, Wiles Driveshafts, Peterson Aluminum, Red Line Oil, Sweet Mfg., and Performance Bodies are among companies that have been with Moyer several seasons.
He recognizes some of his earliest connections came by virtue of being the son of Hall of Famer Billy Moyer, but he's no less grateful. "Before I produced on the track," said Moyer, a three-time winner on the Summernationals in 2012, "they were with me."
2:46 p.m. | A third-generation McCammon
Doug McCammon was among the most successful Dirt Late Model racers from Illinois through the 1990s, and his son B.J. has turned his fair share of laps over the years, too. Dirt Late Model fans will be introduced to a third McCammon next season as Chaney McCammon, the 16-year-old granddaughter of Doug and daughter of B.J., hits the Crate Late Model division.
The Palestine High School student had started her racing career driving 600cc mini sprints, but it wasn't working out so well. And Doug and B.J. found their stock-car background wasn't of much help.
"We didn't know anything about that," Doug McCammon said, so they considered a switch to Crate Late Models. To give Chaney a chance to test it out, she borrowed the Crate Late Model of Aaron Heck after the races one night at Clay County Speedway in Flora, Ill., for five test laps.
She didn't hold back, B.J. said, and when she came off the track she let everyone know she was ready to switch divisions.
"That's when I definitely decided what I wanted to do," Chaney said with a laugh.
B.J. said she's shown skill behind the wheel and hopes she can continue to improve driving the team's Rocket Chassis they bought from Chad Stapleton. "She's real smooth and smart," B.J. said. "She doesn't get in many wrecks.
And which number is she using? The No. 92, of course, the same numbers used by the McCammons who came before.
1:48 p.m. | A few LODLMS staff changes
With Ritchie Lewis adding duties with the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series, the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series has streamlined its staff and made a few changes to ease his workload.
Lewis remains as series director while Rick Schwallie, formerly projects manager, has been named assistant series director. Kenny Kenneda, who has frequently worked as a part-time technical inspector for the series, has taken a full-time job as competition/technical director.
Schwallie will take some day-to-day duties on the Late Model tour from Lewis while Kenneda will oversee tech inspection and serve as race director at series events, Schwallie said. Lewis previously served as race director at most events.
A.J. Bingham, who has served as technical director for the series and occasionally played the role of race director, will stay on in a part-time role, Schwallie said.
Schwallie praised the Lucas Oil team he's been a part of for seven years, appreciative of how founder Forrest Lucas and others "embrace a family atmosphere" with all the employees.
1:16 p.m. | Show-Me 100 changes
The 21st annual Dart Show-Me 100 is adding $10,000 to the purse along with a $2,000-to-win non-qualifiers' race in 2013. The announcement was made by general manager Dan Robinson of Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Mo., at today's Lucas Oil luncheon.
The 20-lap non-qualifiers' race, tabbed the Midwest Sheet Metal Show-Me Challenge, will pay $2,000-to-win and $250-to-start for the top 24 drivers who fail to make the feature lineup. The race's winner can opt to take the winnings or the 30th starting spot in the 100-lap main event.
The May 24-25 event also gets a purse boost with about $300 added to positions from seventh through 29th in the feature field. The $30,000-to-win race now pays $1,500-to-start, up from $1,200 since the race's move to Wheatland from West Plains (Mo.) Motor Speedway in 2010. Non-qualifiers now receive $250, up from $100.
1:14 p.m. | MLRA adding travel money
The Lucas Oil Midwest LateModel Racing Association, a tour acquired by the title sponsor from Allen and Harriett Chancellor earlier this fall, is adding appearance money to develop a stronger core of drivers, new series director Dan Robinson announced at the Lucas Oil luncheon.
Patterned after the Winner's Circle program on the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, the top 10 drivers in MLRA points with perfect attendance will receive $200 at each race venue in addition to purse winnings.
If drivers miss a race, they must make up the number of missed events before being eligible for the program.
12:50 p.m. | Lucas Oil adds duties for Lewis
Ritchie Lewis, Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series director, has added duties as director of the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series, it was announced Friday at IMIS during the Lucas Oil luncheon. Clearly for Lewis, a native Georgia, the off-road racing is a change from his stock car roots, but it's grown on him, he said. "Just go one time and you'll feel the passion," said Lewis, who will continue his duties with the Late Model tour. The off road tour has eight 2013 races scheduled in Arizona, California, Utah and Nevada.
12:42 p.m. | More IMIS tidbits
The seminar Racetrack 101: Planning for Success is scheduled for 1 p.m. in room 135 at IMIS. Hosting will be Gerald Newton of Arizona Sport Shirts and Kelley Carlton, the Ultimate Super Late Model Series race director. ... The Lucas Oil luncheon is ongoing with founder Forrest Lucas addressing special guest and media members. Last night Lucas attended the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series postseason banquet for the first time. ... The Rocket Chassis house car on the show floor carries a bit of a different graphics scheme with more white on the sides for a sharp look. Note the listing of Josh Richards above the driver's window as the 24-year-old Richards will be back in the car as his time from his NASCAR career allows. Brandon Sheppard of New Berlin, Ill., who drove the car in 2012 in Richards's absence last season, has a new hauler and a new car from Rocket in running his own team for 2013, said Rocket crew chief Matt Barnes.
12:32 p.m. | MLRA schedule released
The Lucas Oil Midwest LateModel Racing Association has released a tentative 21-race schedule starting March 30 at Springfield (Mo.) Raceway and going through the Oct. 4-5 Clyde Ellis Showdown at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kan. | 2013 MLRA schedule
The schedule for the Missouri-based tour includes four visits to Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Mo., two visits to I-80 Speedway in Greenwood, Neb., and the Aug. 9-10 King of the Hill Shootout weekend at Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, Neb.
Tracks on next year's schedule not on the 2012 slate are two Oklahoma tracks, Thunderbird Speedway in Muskogee and Tri-State Speedway in Pocola.
11:45 a.m. | Englishes hit IMIS
Father-and-son racers Terry and Tanner English of Benton, Ky., toured the aisles at IMIS, and the elder English was getting around just fine after mid-September back surgery to repair a re-herniated disc and remove scar tissue on a spinal nerve.
"Three weeks before the surgery, I could barely walk," said the 50-year-old English.
English said he was cleared by Dr. Clint Hill on Tuesday — Hill is the brother of Tennessee Dirt Late Model racer Vic Hill — but the former UMP DIRTcar weekly champion had actually cleared himself a little earlier. Instead of letting the surgery end his season, English climbed back in the car one last time on Nov. 3, grabbing a victory for Burr Motorsports at Clarksville (Tenn.) Speedway in another double-digit victory season.
At that point in his recovery, English said, he'd been cleared to lift up to 25 pounds, but he managed to wheel the race car without any problems.
The Englishes don't have any special plans for 2013, but both of them wish they could run more at Paducah (Ky.) International Raceway, which has cut back on its UMP DIRTcar Super Late Model events. That means hitting the road if they want to race on Fridays.
"The next closest Friday night track for us is Granite City (Tri-City Speedway), and that's three and a half hours," Terry English said.
11:33 a.m. | Practice makes perfect
Fastrak City Chevrolet Tour champion David Smith of Inman, S.C., is coming off a 15-victory season in 2012 that included a $7,500 victory at Wythe Raceway in Rural Retreat, Va. And he was touring the aisles at IMIS with fellow driver Chris Ferguson of Mount Holly, N.C., eager to start the 2013 season in Fastrak-sanctioned Crate Late Model action at East Bay Raceway Park near Tampa, Fla.
How to get ready for 2013? A little practice never hurt, so Smith plans to line up a day in the coming weeks to test at Harris (N.C.) Motor Speedway, checking the weather forecast ahead of time to make sure the weather is decent.
With Crate Late Model competition so tight, Smith said, practicing helps him find an edge. Testing is critical, he added, and not easy to do during the season.
"Once racing gets going," Smith said, "you don't have any time to do any testing."
11:10 a.m. | IMIS tidbits
Driver Dona Marcoullier of Houghton Lake, Mich., is making the rounds at IMIS. His Doug Finley Motorsports team is putting together a new Rocket Chassis and adding an extra powerplant, and Marcoullier also plans to run a modified again for Dennis Craft. Marcoullier won his first-ever modified start in 2012 and ran six races in all. He had nine Late Model victories, including one at dirt-covered Berlin Raceway. ... Tory Collins of North Vernon, Ind., is touring the show and plans to return to racing in 2013, including some events at his hometown Twin Cities Raceway Park, which is expected to run Super Late Models on Saturday nights in 2013. ... Lee Devasier of Crestwood, Ky., took off the 2012 season, in part because of the closure of his home track, Bardstown Speedway in Bluegrass, Ky. He's at IMIS touring the halls and plans to get his team's two Rockets ready, one a former Steve Francis car.
11:01 a.m. | Cook announces Spring Nationals
A new 10-race, 10-track miniseries through four states has been scheduled for spring 2013 with each of four weekends offering at least $10,000 in winning purse money. The inaugural Spring Nationals was announced by Ray Cook, long-time North Carolina driver and the promoter of summer's Schaefer Oil Southern Nationals. | Spring Nationals schedule
Cook see the March 15-May 11 as manageable for drivers who can't commit to a national or regional tour that lasts throughout the season. "There's not a lot of series that give you a chance to hit the reset button midway through the year," said Cook, who announced the tour in the MasterSbilt Race Cars booth at IMIS. MasterSbilt, Schaeffer Oil, VP Racing Fuels, American Race Tires and Hoosier Tire are among miniseries partners.
Smoky Mountain Speedway is one of four tracks hosting Spring Nationals races along with Cook's Southern Nationals. "We are even more excited about being on board with him for two races," said Smoky Mountain's Casey Moses, on hand for the announcement.
The Spring Nationals carries the same point fund as the Southern Nationals with $5,353 to the champion and payouts to the top five in points and all drivers with perfect attendance. The miniseries is made up of two two-race weekends and two three-race weekends.
