Johnny Boychuk Assigned to Providence for Conditioning
Providence, RI - The Providence Bruins, in their 18th year in the American Hockey League, announced that the National Hockey League's Boston Bruins have assigned defenseman Johnny Boychuk to Providence for conditioning. With the move, the P-Bruins have 23 players on their active roster, including 14 forwards, seven defensemen and two goaltenders.
Boychuk, 25, has been with Boston all season but has been limited to three games. He has been a healthy scratch for 23 of the parent Bruins' first 26 contests this year. Boychuk returns to Providence for the first time since winning the AHL's Eddie Shore Award as the league's outstanding defenseman for the 2008-09 season. As a first-year P-Bruin last year, Boychuk led all AHL blue-liners with 66 points, 20 goals and 46 assists in 78 regular season games before adding eight points (3g, 5a) in 16 postseason contests. He shared the team-lead in points with Martin St. Pierre, setting a single-season points-record for P-Bruins defensemen, eclipsing the 62 totaled previously by Jeff Serowik (1994-95) and Brandon Smith (1998-99).
Boychuk's 2008-09 campaign was full of accolades, receiving four team awards as its Most Valuable Player and Best Defenseman, both honors voted on by his teammates, and the Leading Scorer Award, along with the club's October Player of the Month honor. The veteran was also voted into the starting lineup for the Canadian team at the 2009 AHL All-Star Classic, he was a co-winner of the CCM/AHL Player of the Month award for March, a Reebok/AHL Player of the Week distinction in October, and he was named a First Team AHL All-Star.
Boychuk re-signed with the Bruins organization on July 1, inking a one-year contract. Last season was his first with the Bruins, appearing in one NHL game on December 4, 2008 against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Edmonton, Alberta, native enjoyed previous NHL experience in 2007-08 during a scoreless four-game stint with the Colorado Avalanche after spending most of the year with the Lake Erie Monsters. Boston originally acquired Boychuk on June 24, 2008 from Colorado in a trade for center Matt Hendricks. He was drafted by the Avalanche 61st overall in the second round of the 2002 NHL Entry Draft.
The P-Bruins are back in action with three road games this week, beginning tonight in Connecticut as Providence takes on the Bridgeport Sound Tigers at 7 p.m. The P-Bruins then play back-to-back games with the Portland Pirates on Friday and Saturday, both at 7 p.m. Friday's game will be played in Lewiston, Maine, at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee and Saturday's contest will be held at the Cumberland County Civic Center. Providence is next home at the Dunkin' Donuts Center on Friday, December 11 against the Lowell Devils at 7:05 p.m. for Rhode Island Reds Winter Hat Night. To purchase 2009-10 season tickets, Flex Tix or individual game tickets, please call the Providence Bruins ticket office at (401) 273-5000 or log on to the team website at providencebruins.com.

Cancer Epigenetics: Beyond Genetic Mutations
Genetic mutations often get much of the credit for causing cancer, but another important factor is genes that turn on or off at the wrong times, despite being free of mutations. This abnormal gene activity often involves "epigenetic" changes to DNA and in some cases may be reversible.
Epigenetic changes alter gene activity without modifying the genetic code, and are essential to normal development. But the changes can cause problems if they occur when they shouldn't or disable genes that suppress tumors and control growth.
Studies have suggested that epigenetic changes may be as common in some tumor cells as genetic mutations, and many researchers now say that epigenetic changes are critical to understanding, detecting, and treating cancer.
"If you focus only on genetic mutations and ignore epigenetic changes in tumor cells, you may be missing half of the information you need to understand the disease," says Dr. Stephen Baylin of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.
A recent study led by Dr. Andrew Feinberg, also of Johns Hopkins, suggests that epigenetic changes in normal tissue can create the perfect environment for cancer to develop if genetic mutations arise later.
Dr. Feinberg's team studied mice with an epigenetic defect found in 30 percent of colon cancer patients and 10 percent of the general population. In people and in mice, the defect causes elevated levels of a cancer-related protein: insulin-like growth factor 2.
According to findings published in the March 25 Science, the flaw did not cause colon cancer in the mice, but it significantly increased the risk among mice that also carried a genetic mutation associated with the disease.
"The idea is that epigenetic and genetic factors may cooperate in causing tumors," says Dr. Feinberg. "We may therefore want to think about what sorts of epigenetic changes might occur in normal tissue that set the stage for mutations that come along later."
To identify epigenetic changes that confer cancer risk, researchers first need to know which changes are normal. This presents a challenge because unlike genetic code, epigenetic changes are dynamic and vary by cell type, age, and sex, among other factors.
The most commonly observed epigenetic change is DNA methylation, in which chemicals called methyl groups attach to DNA, often silencing a nearby gene. DNA methylation can be detected in body fluids such as blood and urine, and new technologies can rapidly scan genomes for epigenetic changes.
Perhaps the most exciting prospect for the field is the potential for detecting epigenetic changes linked to cancer and then doing something about them.
"We cannot reverse genetic mutations, but there is the hope and the potential for reversing epigenetic changes," says Dr. Mukesh Verma of NCI's Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences. "That's why interest in epigenetics is so high right now."
At least a dozen drugs that target epigenetic changes such as methylation are in clinical trials and more are in development. Last May, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a methylation inhibitor to treat the rare bone marrow disorder myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), which can lead to leukemia.
The drug, azacitidine (Vidaza), had nearly been abandoned two decades ago but found new life as researchers showed that it helps MDS patients when given at low doses.
Diet and certain nutrients such as folic acid may also have an effect on epigenetic changes. An NCI-sponsored clinical trial is evaluating folic acid as a tool for preventing colon cancer, and the researchers will be documenting certain epigenetic changes in participants.
"Our diets may alter epigenetic information over the course of many years, but right now we know very little about the effects of diet on epigenetic changes in the long term," comments Dr. Jean-Pierre Issa of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.
Similarly, Dr. Issa adds, the links between aging and epigenetic changes are important but poorly understood: "We need to develop a better understanding of the epigenome and its interactions with environmental exposures if we hope to understand age-related diseases."
Two collaborative pilot projects on epigenetics are underway in Europe, and there have been discussions about a U.S.-led effort analogous to the Human Genome Project. A meeting on the subject, sponsored by the American Association for Cancer Research, will take place near Washington, D.C., in June.

iOS7: Accessing Music Controls
Ask iLounge offers readers the opportunity to get answers to their iPod-, iPhone-, iPad-, iTunes-, or Apple TV-related questions from a member of the iLounge editorial team. We'll answer several questions here each week, and of course, you can always get help with more immediate concerns from the iLounge Discussion Forums. Submit your questions for consideration using our Ask iLounge Submit Form. We reserve the right to edit questions for grammar, spelling, and length.
Q: Previous versions of iOS had a feature where one could double tap the home button on the home screen to access music controls. How does this work on iOS 7?
- Joshua
A: All of these functions have been moved to the new iOS 7 Control Center which can be accessed by swiping up from the bottom of any screen—including the lock screen—subject to your preferences set under the Control Center section in the iOS Settings app.
Double-tapping the Home button from the home screen has not actually provided direct access to music controls since prior to iOS 4.0—the point at which the recent apps tray appeared and those controls were moved to that location. Access to music controls in iOS 4, 5, and 6 therefore required multiple actions—a double-click of the home button followed by a left-to-right swipe gesture on the recent apps tray to switch over to those controls. The Control Center comes up with a single upward swipe gesture and provides direct access to not only music controls, but a number of other commonly used features.
On the iOS 7 lock screen, playback controls are now displayed automatically, without a double-tap of the Home button needed to bring them up. A triple-tap single tap of the Home button will temporarily return the standard clock view in case you need to see the time (thanks to Larry for pointing out in the comments that only a single-tap is actually required now).

Double-tapping the Home button from the home screen has not actually provided direct access to music controls since prior to iOS 4.0
This is simply not true. Until upgraded a few days ago to ios7, I was double-tapping on the home button constantly to play/pause/change music on 6.1.4. It is only now with ios7 that I've been unable to have access to these functions on my iphone5.
It was always possible before.
Posted by David on September 26, 2013 at 3:36 PM (CDT)
@David (#1): The key word here is direct access—meaning bringing the controls up directly on the screen as a pop-up display, with no additional gestures required. This was the normal behaviour prior to iOS 4, and in fact even for non-multitasking-capable devices (the second-generation iPod touch, for example), after iOS 4.
Since iOS 4, however, double-tapping brings up up the recent apps list first, requiring a subsequent left-to-right swipe gesture to access the playback controls.
The point is that playback controls are theoretically easier to access on iOS 7, as the home button isn't involved at all—only a swipe gesture which you would have to perform in addition to double-tapping the home button anyway.
In the very least, a swipe up gesture should be no more difficult than the older double-tap-and-then-swipe-right gesture.
Posted by Jesse Hollington in Toronto on September 27, 2013 at 2:52 PM (CDT)
You can actually just press the home button once to toggle between music controls and time.
Posted by Larry on September 27, 2013 at 9:47 PM (CDT)
@Larry (#3): Thanks for pointing that out. I've amended the article to note that. During the betas, this required a triple-tap, but it makes more sense that only a single tap should be required.
Posted by Jesse Hollington in Toronto on October 1, 2013 at 3:45 PM (CDT)
I think the original poster was referring to double tapping home **from the lock screen.** This has been possible up until IOS 7, as I also used it everyday.
I'm annoyed that it is no longer possible, as I could turn on music in the car without having to take my eyes off the road and look at my phone.
Posted by Karen Ar. on October 2, 2013 at 6:02 PM (CDT)
This is still a BIG BUG IN PROGRESS. I beta tested and still with the final release and update since the release if you start playing music from the standard icon withing the OS you can double tap the home button from the lock screen and see music controls.
However, you cannot get to your music from the lock screen without having started playing music from within the the OS.
Also when you swipe up from the lock screen to see music controls the music may not play at all. You can use Siri to launch music from the lock screen.
Posted by Spanish Fly on October 15, 2013 at 7:39 PM (CDT)
Even though the places to access music and controls are different ios 7 still will NOT play to Bluetooth as it did in previous ios versions.

Coal mine employment in West Virginia dropped in the last months of 2012 as a flurry of factors continues to pressure the industry.
West Virginia mining jobs were down to 21,400 in the fourth quarter — a loss of about 1,200 jobs, according to Mine Safety and Health Administration data. Most of the losses occurred from surface mining operations where production has been on the decline in recent years.
Though the fourth quarter loss represents far less than one percent of those employed in West Virginia, the jobs are among the state's most well-compensated and impacts on revenue and surrounding businesses are significant.
"This past Christmas, the Citizens of Coal and the Friends and Family of Coal put together a fundraiser and were able to, thank God, be able to raise $30,000 to feed 200 coal mining families whose unemployment benefits had expired and we weren't able to reach all of them," said Roger Horton, president of the Citizens for Coal.
Horton said the industry is deeply connected to the communities where it operates. Remove coal and communities, particularly in Southern West Virginia where layoffs strike most often, can begin a snowball effect of job loss and declining revenues.
The reasons for coal's stress are many and varied. The industry often lists a number of factors — thinning coal seams in Appalachia, low natural prices, competition from coal in other regions, warmer winters or summers. Among the most fought over are the effects of the Obama administration.
Coal miners and operators across the state say the Environmental Protection Agency is holding up what could be an increase in coal mining jobs.
"It's going to be getting tougher and tougher for the coal industry to mine coal because this administration is still not releasing permits on the scale large enough for us to raise the employment bar," Horton said. "They've also dedicated themselves to stopping as much as they can the exportation of coal. … The market demands coal is going to be mined. One way or another we're going to figure out to do it."
Horton, however, remains optimistic about the coal industry, even it will be a "tough row to hoe."
"We, the Citizens of Coal are standing behind the miners of the entire country and want them to know that together we can overcome this and we don't need to panic," Horton said. "We need to work harder than ever to educate this country about the importance of coal and its importance to national security."
Ted Boettner, director of the West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy, said the data is not necessarily a harbinger of further declines in coal mining jobs. The Energy Information Administration, he points out, does predict a decline in coal production, but another factor is involved.
"I think the jury is still out whether this is a structural decline in coal employment or whether it's more reflective of the boom and bust nature of the industry," Boettner said. "In the long run, there's going to be a large decline in coal production, but at the same time there's going to be a large decrease in productivity."
A decrease in productivity means more miners to bring out the same amount of coal, though that also increases the cost of that coal.
Boettner said 2012 "was a terrible year for West Virginia in terms of job growth. Whether or not the drop in fourth quarter coal mine employment is a sign of the future or part of a short-term trend, he said, would remain to be seen.

Love hits the campaign trail running
Sandy • A year out from what could be a rematch of Mia Love's nail-biter loss to Democratic Rep. Jim Matheson, Allen West, a former Florida congressman and prominent voice in the tea-party movement, said Wednesday that Congress needs more members like her.
"This young lady is a reflection of what America is all about," West said. "This young lady is a reflection of truth, of what our Founding Fathers meant about how great this nation could be."
West spoke at a small fundraiser lunch and a town hall meeting with about 100 people supporting Love's bid for a rematch with Matheson, a seven-term incumbent who beat Love, the mayor of Saratoga Springs, by a slim 768 votes in Utah's newly drawn 4th Congressional District in 2012.
"This time we have a lot more name recognition. That's helpful," Love said. "We have a great campaign staff. We have got people who know how to do this. And we're going to be getting out and reaching as many people as possible."
Matheson countered, saying that, having represented the district for two years now, he is confident voters will re-elect him.
"This time she's got to stand on her own two feet," Matheson said. "She doesn't get to stand on the huge coattails of Mitt Romney."
Love would still have to win the Republican nomination next year to set up the Matheson showdown, but she has been aggressively raising money and lining up support from Utah's GOP establishment.
West and Love took repeated swings at the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare.
West said people are wrong to resign themselves to Obamacare being "the law of the land," and Love responded, "Slavery was a law of the land too, right? That doesn't mean it shouldn't be changed."
She said 5.2 million Americans have lost their insurance policies as a result of the change — because the existing policies don't meet the minimum coverage requirements of the new law — and figures released Wednesday show only about 106,000 have signed up for new coverage.
West said Republicans need to be smart in responding.
"The most important thing for the Republican Party is not to gloat and not to go out there and say, 'I told you so,' " he said, but instead "be the one who solves this thing."
He suggested enacting targeted subsidies and high-risk pools to cover those who can't get insurance, working with the insurance companies to get coverage for those whose policies were canceled, and expanding health-savings accounts.
Love was asked several times whether she would have voted for the budget bill that ended the federal government shutdown resulting from an impasse in Congress over whether to fund Obamacare, but wouldn't answer, calling the question a hypothetical.
"I support trying to defund [it]. I support trying to get rid of the Affordable Care Act," she said. "The problem with the way everything went is shutting down the government didn't touch the Affordable Care Act."
Love said Matheson should have met with constituents before voting to restore federal funding to the government.
"He should have faced his residents, face to face, to figure out how they wanted him to vote," she said.
Matheson said the criticism is laughable.
"I was stuck in Washington because of the shutdown," he said, "but, secondly, I heard from thousands of constituents, phone calls, emails saying, 'Stop this nonsense.' "
Matheson also said it is telling that Love brought West to Utah, adding that his ideas are far outside the mainstream "and so is she."
"He is the poster boy of what's wrong with politics in America. He's reckless, he's irresponsible and if there are people who don't agree with him, he calls them names," Matheson said. "I think birds of a feather flock together. If she wants to be associated with Allen West, more power to her."
Love praised West's convictions, although she distanced herself somewhat on style, particularly some inflammatory comments he has made — for example, suggesting Democrats in Congress were communists and calling President Barack Obama a tyrant.
She said candidates can agree on values and differ on style and their message.
West has started an organization called the Guardian Fund, created to help elect conservative military veterans and minorities to Congress.
West noted that he had the opportunity to pose for a picture with Love and Utah GOP Chairman James Evans, all three of whom are black, which West said was historic. If she is elected, Love would be the first black Republican woman in Congress.
"Think how powerful that image is, because you did not bring us to these positions because of the color of our skin. You allowed us to have these positions because of the content of our character," he said. "That is what makes us different from the Democratic Party."

Access to medical care benefits: private industry vs. State and local government
July 29, 2009
In March 2009, medical care benefits were available to 71 percent of private industry workers, compared with 88 percent among State and local government workers.
Private industry workers in service occupations have less access to medical care benefits (46 percent) than private industry management, professional, and related workers (86 percent).
State and local government workers in service occupations also have less access to medical care than State and local government workers in management, professional, and related occupations (81 and 90 percent, respectively). The disparity between these two occupational groups is larger in private industry (46 and 86 percent, respectively).
Among full-time State and local government workers, virtually all (99 percent) had access to medical care benefits. Of full-time workers in private industry, only 86 percent had access to medical care.
Part-time workers had less access to these benefits in both private industry and in State and local government; about 25 percent had access to medical care benefits.
These earnings data are from the Employee Benefits Survey. To learn more, see "Employee Benefits in the United States, March 2009" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL 09-0872. A worker with access to medical care benefits is defined as having an employer-provided medical plan available for use, regardless of the worker's decision to enroll or participate in the plan.

Panhandlers exist in every city I have visited. They are an unwelcome intrusion.
Worse, the preferred places to beg for money are bus stops, ATM machines and bank entrances. When we are doing one of these activities we usually do not have a lot of time to waste so the interruption is particularly intrusive.
And it feels dangerous.
Thankfully, the Toledo City Council is considering legislation to create panhandle free zones which are aimed at providing relief for those who want it.
This legislation should pass and the police should enforce it. It is a tough economy, but there are other places to go for assistance besides harassing people walking downtown.
Many of us contribute to those organizations. All of us deserve the right to walk in public without being verbally assaulted to give our money away. Pass the legislation.

I loved Michael's other books - this, not so much. After a while, i skipped all the truck parts and got to the rest. He is quite the story teller! I recommend any of his other books. I'd actually like to have him as a friend. posted May 23, 2007 at 8:09AM
|The mammy
by O'Carroll, Brendan, 1955-
Sometimes you'll come across an author who is so good, you stay up all night reading the book. This is the first in a series of three books. This was made into a TV movie called "Agnes Browne". Read the book first! posted May 16, 2007 at 1:35PM
|Dream when you're feeling blue : a novel
by Berg, Elizabeth
I'm a great fan of Elizabeth Berg. I discovered her after seeing a movie called "Open House" based on one of her books. I've now read them all and can't wait for the next one to be printed. If you're a fan of the WW II era, this is an especially good book to read. posted May 9, 2007 at 12:58PM

The chrome-plated, nickel silver, drawn inner slide is very durable and has a quick, sensitive response. The outer slide is one piece, drawn yellow brass and maintains an accurate diameter throughout its length. This type of construction ensures airtightness, smooth action, exceptional durability, and adds resonance to the sound. Long-lasting nickel-silver tubular braces contribute to the stability of the slide and enhance smooth slide action. Tuning slides are hand lapped to ensure an absolutely perfect fit and seal between the slide parts.The virtually seamless bell--fused by high-energy laser--allows continuous, even vibration. The unique slide lock design on all Yamaha trombones keeps the slide locked in place and prevents it from accidentally falling. Large, easy-to-hold, nickel-silver bracing guards against possible slide damage if the instrument is dropped and also lessens fatigue while playing. Mouthpipe features a special acoustic design that allows precise intonation and greater blowing control. Large rotor on "F" attachment makes transitions from the Bb to F smoother.

I'm an old hand who finally came around to the modern world. I've played vintage horns for years. I finally broke down and after much thought and ado settled on this horn. Why? Because I figured it was versatile to all my types of playing from jazz to symphonic etc. AND, it is in spades. It has a wonderful sound and is very responsive in all registers. It blows easy. I would not use this horn as a lead horn in a jazz ensemble, it is too mellow for that use. If you want to make 'em weep, this is it. As you can tell, I love this horn.
To begin, I shopped for a new Tbone for over a year. I play various styles and wanted something versatile, something that would respond to my playing. I must say, the Yamaha YSL-640 has lived up to the Yamaha hype. From intonation to its weight, I have been extremely pleased. Even more impressive was the service of WWBW. The website said 4-6 weeks back order which was confirmed when I called and placed my order. To my surprise, I found my new horn in my garage when I cam home for lunch.....8 DAYS LATER!!! Excellent Trombone/Excellent Experience!!!

Baker's Tricks: Browning the Butter
Browned butter smells so delicious and adds such a great nutty flavor to whatever we're making that we've been seriously tempted to eat it by the spoonful at times. We toss it with pasta or drizzle it over vegetables, of course, but where we've really come to love it is in baked goods. Yes, even when the recipe doesn't call for it!
So many baking recipes already call for melted butter, so why not take it just a little further? Browning the butter doesn't change the way it functions in most recipes and it adds such an interesting depth of flavor! Even if the recipe just calls for room temperature butter, we'll brown it and then let it re-solidify before using it.
We've been doing this a lot lately with cookies, cakes, and quick breads - really, any recipe where that nutty flavor would be a welcome element.
Recipes like these have definitely been inspiration for us!
• Hazelnut Brown Butter Cake with Chocolate Ganache
• Rosemary-Walnut Brown Butter Cookies
• Brown Butter Ice Cream
• Brown Butter Plum Cake
Do you ever do this in your baking?

I have to keep making the same pumpkin cupcakes at my kids' school because they get so many requests -- kids, teachers and parents. They're a Martha recipe, and the "secret" (or, the "hook") is browned butter icing...
Browned butter icing, SWOON. Ooh, and I bet some browned butter would be amazing mixed into a cream cheese frosting on those pumpkin cupcakes...
I am newly obsessed with browned butter--I can't believe I hadn't discovered it sooner. My most recent creation with it (off-topic, since it's not baking) is a rice pilaf made with browned butter, sage, shallots, and sliced almonds.
This may add a delicious flavor, but in many recipes, the particular chemical properties of butter are necessary for proper texture.
For recipes where solid butter is not required, could you also substitute ghee?
I always use browned butter on popcorn (Added after popping) - unlike ordinary melted butter, the browning process boils off the water content, so it won't make the popcorn soggy. Plus, it makes the BEST popcorn in the world!
smitten kitchen has a recipe for brown butter rice krispy bars. I used homemade marshmallows, too. Hijole! Tasty squared!
Brown butter is also really good to scramble or fry eggs in. *drool*
I won a jar of homemade brown butter at a white elephant party last holiday season. It was the best gift ever.
Though, I did try to make a tender little butter cake with it, and had it fail miserably. Some things really need the milk solids.
Can you do a how-to on browning butter (like what exactly to look for at each stage) and how long it takes? Or point us/me in the direction of some good how-to guides. Because I screwed it up and badly (I ruined a spoon _and_ a pan!) and am afraid to try again...
I just have to second the recommendation for SmittenKitchen's brown butter rice crispy treat. With a little bit of sea salt, they're salty-sweet-stretchy-crispy spectacular. Make them. Now. Go now. Go make them.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"The Precocious Penguin Save the Dates (in black) were a big hit with our guests and a fun and whimsical way to share our happy wedding date news! Would be fun for wedding paper divas to expand the Precious Penguins pattern to other card/invitation types (i.e. thank yous, rehearsal dinner/shower invites, etc.)"
"These are for my daughters wedding, and She i s procrastinator. Could not make a decision on what she wanted. She saw these and made the decision on the spot !"
"I wanted to send 'save the date' postcards and I was thrilled with all the options weddingpaperdivas.com had to offer. We chose the "Tea for Two" postcard because it offered several different color choices for the roses around the photo, one of which was yellow (my fiancee and I had a lovely picture of the two of us surround by yellow roses.) There were so many font options to chose from so we were able to design one that was just our style. Our friends and family absolutely loved it!"
"I LOVE my save-the-date. I chose the silver stripes with blue writing, and all of my hotel/wedding website information fit easily on the back. Customer service was amazing - I had an issue, got a real person on the line super quickly, and got effective results fast. Overall, 5 stars for every aspect of this transaction!!"
"These came in just as I expected & they even added an extra line for me so that I could add in our wedding website address. I had ordered the sample of the invitation size & was expecting something of a similar size, however, these are more the size of a post card (which will probably save us in postage)."

Look at this purrty car!
An elderly couple in Wasilla, Alaska turned their pickup truck into a giant red Radio Flyer.
(They got the idea after visiting a car show where they saw another Radio Flyer car.)
The couple worked on the car for 11 months. They used the base of a 1976 Mazda B1600 pickup truck.
The 68-year-old husband had the construction skills needed to do the work. His hobby is building home aircraft, so this wasn't too different.
Lots of components from the Mazda are still in the flyer, including the instrument panel, steering column, levels, frame and engine. The man added smaller wheels, hubcaps painted white and used old laundry detergent caps for the hubs.
He also made the 8-foot tall handle from PVC piping wrapped in fiberglass. It rises from the front bumper high over the windshield.
There's no storage space on the wagon, so the man made an especially big glove compartment.

AFI is now part of the Republic Records family. On Thursday, frontman Davey Havok revealed that his band would be joining the record label's roster, and that the group has a new album headed our way.
"We are thrilled to be joining the Republic family for the release of our ninth record," says Havok in a statement. "We've spent over two years realizing this album and could not be more excited to share it with all."
While the band has yet to announce an official release date for the upcoming album, it is expected to arrive in stores in September.
You'll be able to hear some of the new songs performed live when the band makes appearances at Riot Fest in Chicago, IL, September 13-15 and at Riot Fest in Denver, CO September 21-22. Dates for a headlining tour will be announced in the coming weeks.
