Cambridge condo lets empty-nesters stay near historic river
Many purchasers at the Watermark project in Cambridge are locals who want to remain near the Grand River.

The Grand is Ontario's largest river totally within the province.
Because of its historical, economical and social impact on Central Ontario it was one of the first rivers in Canada to be designated a Heritage River. It's a flowing main street for 39 separate communities in Southern Ontario and an icon of nature for the million people who live along its banks.
Many empty-nester boomers living in large homes backing onto or overlooking the wide river find their houses are now too large. Their kids have moved on to independent lives, but the parents are reluctant to downsize because they can't imagine life without feeling close to the river that has flowed through their lives for so long.
Developer Paul de Haas has often heard such stories from visitors to The Grand, the luxury condominium tower he is building on the Grand River in downtown Cambridge.
The Grand condo is the second phase of Waterscape, a 12-storey condo that de Haas recently opened on the east bank of the Grand just before the river reached downtown Cambridge, the part of town many people still call Galt.
Most purchasers in the first phase moved out of large homes on the west bank. They had been waiting for someone to build a luxury condo offering downtown living that would let them retains a physical and emotional closeness to the river and Galt's charming limestone core.
It took de Haas more than five years to get Waterscape off the ground. Although it is built on a seemingly ideal riverside site, he had to overcome a long heritage of pollution. Galt Gas Works occupied the site from 1887 to 1911 and the land was saturated with coal oil. The Dobbie textile mill then occupied the site for 60 years.
De Haas, who was facing one of the most extensive and expensive environmental cleanups ever in Waterloo Region, credits the assistance of Cambridge Mayor Doug Craig and city councillor Ben Tucci in helping his development firm, Haastown, to smooth out many of the bumps he faced trying to get a building permit.
"They were instrumental in getting the other major approval bodies in sync with one another, namely the Region of Waterloo, the Ministry of Environment and the Grand River Conservation Authority," said de Haas. "Their efforts were extremely strong during the credit crisis in 2008, when the project financing was set to expire if all permits were not in place by Oct. 31. As of Oct. 7, after three years of trying, we still had outstanding issues with three of the four authorities.
"The dedication and recognition by the mayor and councillor of the importance of this project to their city, had them devote countless hours to overseeing the process to ensure that it would move in as timely a way as was possible."
Cleaning up the entire riverbank site allowed phase two of Waterscape — The Grand — to proceed through the civic approvals process without delays. Construction is expected to start this fall.
To accommodate people moving out of their large homes, de Haas increased the average size of residential suites in The Grand. Some units are now more than 2,000 square feet and priced up to $1.3 million. The second phase has been angled to the river to offer practically every suite a river view.
Prices start at $199,900 for a ground-floor bachelor suite with 520 square feet and a 150-square-foot terrace. It's on the north side of the building; the sleeping area is in a corner of the living room.
A two-bedroom suite with a separate family room on the southwest corner of the building is priced at $689,900. The master bedroom has its own balcony and there is another balcony with 110 square feet off the living room/dining room.
There are seven different sizes of one-bedroom suites, ranging in size from 555 to 765 square feet and in price from $209,900 to $259,900. One-bedroom suites with a den are priced from $235,900 to $312,900 and range all the way up to 835 square feet. Two-bedroom suites, some designs with a den, are priced up to $689,900.
There'll be 118 suites in The Grand, each comes with an underground parking space, six appliances, granite countertop in the kitchen, laminated wood flooring and nine-foot ceilings.
Common elements include a fitness centre, a common lounge with kitchen facilities, and an outdoor terrace with a fireplace and barbecue. There's a guest suite on the ground floor.
The Giancone family, which owns renowned Burlington restaurant Spencer's at the Waterfront and the Ancaster Mill in Ancaster, has spent $5 million to restore the Cambridge Mill restaurant on the riverfront, immediately south of The Grand condos.
The popular restaurant is emblematic of the new developments and restorations underway in the heart of Galt, a few blocks to the south. A riverside footpath connects the condo developments to the city core. That same path will eventually meander along the riverbank as a hiking trail all the way from Fergus to Lake Erie.

Complaint: .I claimed bankruptcy and understand that is public information. Larry Miller Honda sends me many advertisements in the mail, checks for car loans referencing my bankruptcy. I receive sometimes two a day. I have called and spoken to 3 people at Larry Miller Honda and they do nothing. I ask for a manager and get no one. I sent in a complaint to BBB and the junk mail keeps coming. What does it take to get Larry Miller Honda to take me off their mailing list? What does the BBB complaint do? Is Larry Miller Honda that desperate for car buyers that they piss people off with their junk mail. I want this junk mail to stop. My next step is a class action lawsuit, I have spoke to others that have been receiving the same junk mail. This will be my last attempt at BBB and Larry Miller Honda to stop the junk mail. TAKE ME OFF YOUR MAILING LIST NOW, call your advertising company and have my address removed.
Desired Settlement: Remove my address from your advertising company.
Business Response:
Spoke with consumer today regarding the mail pieces he has been receiving. Informed him that I emailed our marketing company with his mailing info and reassured him he would be removed.

Complaint: I purchased my 2009 Honda Pilot from Larry Miller Honda on 5/26/2014, by Friday 5/30/2014, the check engine light came on. On 6/16, I took my vehicle to an independent mechanic where the code read P0301, which is a cylinder misfire and with further investigation I learned there is a service bulletin issued on Oct 2013, SB-13-082, which states that this model and year of the pilot have piston rings that can lead to fouling of spark plugs and a powertrain warranty extension had been issued. The independent mechanic verified that after checking the a spark plug, there had been excessive oil accumulation. I then contacted the attorney of the class action law suit, Case3:12-cv-01377-SI, filed in the United States District Court of the Northern District of California, where it indicates owners of the 09 Honda pilot which present with the diagnostic code p0301 are entitled to have engine misfire repairs. On 6/16, I took my car into Larry Miller Honda who recognized the code as reading p0301, replaced 3 spark plugs they concluded had oil damage. I was told by Larry Miller Honda that their course of action would be to wait for the check engine light to come on again before thinking of looking into the problem any further. If the check engine light were to come back on, they indicated they would place my vehicle on a 1000 mile check cycle, where I would have to come in every 1000 miles driven to have them check for excessive oil consumption. I was told I would have to do this for some undetermined time before they could rule out excessive oil consumption and try to have the piston rings replaced as covered under the extended powertrain warranty. While they recognized that the service bulletin had been issued about doing further repair under the extended powertrain warranty, Larry Miller Honda stated they would have to rule out whether my vehicle was just having excessive oil consumption and not presenting with spark plug fouling as identified in the class action lawsuit.
Desired Settlement: After two mechanics verified oil on my spark plugs, I assert this is not excessive oiling and qualifies my vehicle for the extended powertrain warranty which obligates the dealer to make the appropriate repairs for this issue. The repair recommended in the law suit is for the replacement of engine pistons and/or piston rings (a ring job) and or valve stem seal replacements. Since the code is diagnostically registering at p0301 I have been informed by the attorney of the class action suit that my vehicle is entitled to have this more extensive repair and that following the suggested course of treatment suggested by Larry Miller Honda is unacceptable. The extended powertrain warranty is only good for 8 years, this is an issue beyond the excessive oil consumption and is impacting the operation of my vehicle due to the spark plug fouling. Thank you for your assistance on this matter.

Complaint: On March 26, 2014 I purchased a new vehicle from Larry H Miller Honda in Boise, ID. In the paperwork I noticed two fees for $299 each. I asked specifically what these fees were for and if they were required fees. I was told that one was for a Doc fee, the other an etch fee and YES they were both REQUIRED. I had a witness with me who corroborates the manager's 'yes, required' statement. I paid the fees. Later that night I called my insurance and other dealers who all stated that the etch fee was not in fact a required fee. I called the finance manager and general manager the following day and threatened to expose them if they did not return my $299. From that point on, I was led on a game of driving to the location filling out paperwork, excuses that they could not refund the money directly, lost paperwork, they thought I had received the refund, etc. It has now been 9 weeks, and still no refund. $299 has been stolen from me! At best, this is unethical and dishonest...possibly criminal. Think of the number of customers in the last year that have had $299 stolen from them! For the BBB to give them any type of star rating is disgusting...the public needs to know.
Desired Settlement: I would like my $299 returned and the BBB to take action, so this practice ends and people are held accountable. The constant excuses and games making the consumer run around filling out paperwork...then more excuses, exhausts the individual, so the majority of people give up and Larry H Miller keeps the money. The extent is tens of thousands of dollars each year taken from consumers unknowingly.
Business Response:
This is a statement from our business manager that was personally involved with this consumer.
On May 26th this consumer purchased a new vehicle from Larry Miller Honda. Every customer that goes through our business office is offered a variety of products to protect themselves as well as the vehicle purchased.
In the process of offering these products for her vehicle, an accept or decline form was presented on the products offered. At that time the customer asked her friend, who was present in the office, what she purchased on her vehicle. When it came to the Vehicle Theft Registration, I explained that it was a product that helped with returning stolen vehicles and also gives you 5 years of identity theft. Her friend explained that she had purchased Vehicle Theft Registration on her car, so this consumer decided to purchase it and signed the accept form. Everything was explained and done in good faith.
The next morning she called and let me know that she wanted to remove the Vehicle Theft. I had her come in and do a cancellation form. She then called a few times to find out the status of the cancellation form. I called the proper personnel and found out that the form was unfortunately misplaced. At that time I called the customer directly back and apologized and let her know that it was misplaced and she needed to sign a new one. She told me that she was sick and it would be a few days before she could make it back in. I have not heard back from her since. I have made several attempts to contact her at this point to resolve the situation and have had no response. The refund check for the cancellation has been cut and sent to the address we have on file.

Complaint: We were promised a same day payoff amount on our trade in vehicle when we purchased a vehicle from their lot. Then it turned into the next day, then the next, then the next. Now they are saying its going to take 7 - 10 more days to cut us the check. I am worried that after waiting 10 more days they are just going to tell me its going to be an additional 2 months. If it was going to take 7 - 10 days, then they should have been up front about it and not lied to me about it.
Desired Settlement: I just want them to honor there word and cut me my check like we agreed upon when we shook hands. I completely understand mistakes can be made, but this has been deliberately stringing me along.
Business Response:
Spoke to ********** ****** about the situation. There was just a miscomunication on what was going on with the pay off check. Everything has been resolved and in good standings. He is more then willing to retract the BBB complaint. Thx

Consumer Response:
Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID *******, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.
I spoke with ****** ***** a few days ago. It turns out that it was a big miss understanding, mostly on my behalf. I sincerely apologize to the Honda dealership and would like to thank ****** ***** for explaining and handling the situation so quickly and professionally. I sincerely wish I could take back my initial complaint. My only excuse, and its a poor one, is that I heard what I wanted to hear, and was quick to throw a temper tantrum like a spoiled child when I did not get my way. So, again, I apologize to both my salesman **** and ****** *****, and the rest of Honda for my behavior.
********** ******
BBB's Final Determination: Consumer accepted resolution offered by the business.

Complaint: We made a verble agreement with sales person that we would not run credit until we had a deal do to the fact that we were closing on a home the next week. The dealer/sales office ran the credit anyway. It was an out right lie! I have A+++++ credit so it did not matter but it slowed the closing and we could have lost the seller.
Desired Settlement: This practice needs to STOP! Most people would have lost the house deal because the score would not have been strong. I would like a ritten apology and statment that the practice will stop.

when all is lost there is still hope, great thought sir, love the optimism in the poem, nicely written

Anuj Tikku
When all is lost there is still hope
Hope that things lost can be taken
Deeds done can be forsaken
The hope that all is not gone in vain
There is still a lot to gain
Lost gain to be won back
As I wander into a new track
Hope the deeds of today
Will pay me returns some other day
Hope for a quite dawn
Like the flight of the white swan
Hope that I would reach into my inner core
ask for creativity, forgiveness, love, trust and much more
Hope to hear my true voice soon
And launch me up towards the moon
To take me up to wonderland
Where I can play my merry band
Hope that that change will bring
Solitude, maturity and many songs for me to sing

Just what Philadelphia needs – fewer places to park. PC silliness at best.
Exactly what Philly NEEDS! A few less cars in CC!
Contrary to popular opinion, we have an excellent transit system
and (slowly) growing bike lanes. Let's make use of them.
Silly? Maybe, but it makes one think.
Good coverage of this from fellow HC contributor, Dominic Mercier.
"A few less cars" – no what the Bicycle Coalition and their Friends want is to get rid of cars, period.
In the meantime the suburbs continue to flourish – when was the last time anyone chose to shop in town rather than the malls?
This is awesome. Hopefully the city will start to reclaiming car space for everyone space.
I go downtown to shop all the time, using public transit. I can't remember the last time I went to the mall, but it was years ago. The bike coalition isn't coming to take anyone's car away…
Thank you for posting. We had 6 spots, and 4 locations up in Germantown, and all were really well-attended and well received by the community. Looking forward to next year.

Paul Konerko hits No. 400
Chicago White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko became the 48th major league player to join the 400 home run club when his solo shot tied the Oakland Athletics in the ninth inning on Wednesday.
Konerko ranks seventh in home runs among active players. Alex Rodriguez leads the list with 632 home runs. Former White Sox players Jim Thome (604) and Andruw Jones (422) are also among the active leaders.
"The round numbers, everybody likes the round numbers," Konerko said. "But again when it comes to that kind of stuff, I think when I'm done playing you look back that's when it might hit home more. But when you're in a middle of a grind and you're grinding every day and working, you tend to not think about that stuff.
"Yeah, it's nice. Every time I've gotten to a hundred or whatever it is, you never think you're going to get to the next one or you think it seems far away. So yeah, it's cool, but we'll tuck it away now and we'll look at it probably when I'm done playing and reopen and probably talk about it more then."
The 36-year-old Konerko only trails Frank Thomas for home runs as a White Sox player. Thomas hit 448 home runs with the team. Konerko has homered 393 times in his 13-year White Sox career. His seven other home runs came early in his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Cincinnati Reds.
Konerko's fourth home run of the season and 400th of his career came against Oakland reliever Grant Balfour.

Stafford Loan
EDITORIAL: Student loans shouldn't be school of hard knocks
The high load of student debt — almost 1 in 5 adults in the United States owes money on student loans — should concern everyone.
Student loan interest rates to double unless Congress acts
INDIANAPOLIS | Next time you're at the grocery store or a RailCats game or anywhere out and about in the region, look around -- almost one of every five adults you see owes money on student loans.
GUEST COMMENTARY: Obama, Congress deserve credit for freezing student loan rate
At the last minute June 29, a divided Congress came together to deliver for the economy, as well as students and families, by extending the low 3.4 percent interest rate on subsidized Stafford student loans.

Robber's disguise is pants... and he targeted store around the corner from his Sutton home
Neighbours recognised fleeing crook as he fled shop after knife raid

Published: 01 May 2012
This CCTV clip shows Tazviona Bhebe attempting to hold up a London convenience store using a pair of baggy grey underpants as a disguise.
With the crotch hanging over his nose, the 40-year-old can be seen threatening the shop assistant at Broadway Mini-Market in Sutton with a knife.
But his not-so-cunning plan backfired. Not only could his face clearly be seen on the shop's CCTV, but the shopkeeper turned the tables by bashing his hapless attacker on the head with an A-frame advertising board.
Bhebe was forced to flee and removed his disguise. Alas, it revealed another flaw in his plan.
The robber had chosen a store around the corner from his home and was immediately recognised by neighbours as he escaped.
Shop assistant Hari A Mahalingham, 33, who had been helping out at the store as a favour, said: "I couldn't believe it when he came in wearing this underwear on his head, it was a pointless disguise and I recognised him straight away.
"He pointed the knife at me and tried to take all the money from the till. I wasn't scared, unfortunately someone pulling a knife is an occupational hazard. I tried to talk him out of it, telling him it was a bad idea and he would regret it but he wouldn't listen."
Bhebe was arrested and jailed for three years at Croydon crown court after pleading guilty to robbery.
A police spokesman said: "It's fair to say that this man is not a master of disguise.
"Not only was there CCTV footage but there was also forensic evidence and witness statements and descriptions from the sales assistant and a large number of passers-by.
"But this lack of sophistication should not detract from what was a serious offence. He threatened a shop assistant with a knife and it is important that he has been brought to justice."

Five federal contractors -- Apple, Google, Hewlett-Packard, IBM and Microsoft -- successfully petitioned for their data to be excluded. Federal contractors are required to file EEO-1 reports annually to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, in which the companies must provide a breakdown of their workforce by sex, race and job category. We received data from 2006 through 2010 for four of the companies. The Labor Department provided just two years of data for Ingram Micro, because it has not contracted with the U.S. government since 2007.
We averaged the data over five years (two years, in Ingram Micro's case), so the totals do not always add up. We also excluded 2006 data for the "officer and manager" and "mid-level officer and manager" for each company, because the EEOC did not count those positions separately until 2007.
The "administration/other" job category combines clerical workers, as well as skilled and unskilled laborers.
The "Asian" race category includes Pacific Islanders.

BRIDESMAIDS' Wendi McLendon-Covey Lands Lead in Adam Goldberg's 80's Pilot on ABC
BRIDESMAIDS' Wendi McLendon-Covey has officially landed the lead role in Adam Goldberg's upcoming 1980s comedy pilot for ABC.
The project, which is inspired by Goldberg's own life, follows a messed up, but equally loving family. McLendon-Covey will play the matriarch of the family, Beverly Gold, a hyper-emotional shopaholic with no sense of boundaries and a big mouth.
The pilot was picked up last month by ABC after it was originally ordered by Fox.
Earlier this year, McLendon-Covey was cast in KING OF VAN NUYS, the adaptation of the BBC's ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES, commissioned by ABC. Ultimately, the network passed on the project in December.
The actress is also set to return to Modern Family and CBS' RULES OF ENGAGEMENT later this season.

Taylor County High School marching band members recently received awards after competing in Glasgow and regional quarterfinal competition.
On Saturday, Oct. 18, in Glasgow, the band competed at Barren County Marching Invitational and was recognized for earning a distinguished rating in preliminary and final performances. In the preliminary round in Class AAA, TCHS was awarded second place. The top 10 bands competed again in the finals round, where the band placed third among all classes.
Taylor County Middle School recently named its student Leaders of the Week for the week of Oct. 27.
They are Peyton Dooley, Jacob Haddock, Logan Bricken and Maria Wilkerson.
Campbellsville Fire & Rescue and Campbellsville/Taylor County EMS personnel were called to respond to a crash in Green County last week in which about 40 people were transported for treatment.
Kentucky State Police Trooper Jonathan Houk is investigating a collision that occurred Friday afternoon in the area of Pitman Creek on KY 61 North in Green County.
Two Campbellsville residents were arrested on Saturday after they led police on a short pursuit.
According to a Campbellsville Police report, Officer Jeromy Burris attempted to initiate a traffic stop at about 4:30 p.m. in reference to a traffic violation in the area of East Broadway and South Jackson Street.
As Burris initiated his emergency equipment, the driver failed to stop the vehicle and sped away.
A Campbellsville woman has been arrested and charged with selling heroin after she allegedly drove while intoxicated.
Campbellsville Police received a report on Saturday at about 1:20 a.m. of someone possibly driving drunk.
The report states that officers responded and made contact with Sara Marie Teel, 24, of Campbellsville.
After an investigation, Teel was arrested and charged with DUI, first-degree selling heroin, third-degree selling a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.
I highly recommend Taylor County residents to vote to keep Chad Shively as our property valuation administrator.
Chad has made my job as a realtor a lot easier when it comes to doing a market analysis or comparable sales search for properties. He's always easy to reach, whether it's a phone call to his office, a text to his cell phone or a message to him on Facebook. No matter what time of day it is, he always responds. Real estate isn't a 9-to-5 job, so it's important for me to have my contacts readily available for questions and advice.
Campbellsville Middle School Leaders of the week for the month of October were honored Monday, Oct. 27, with a leadership luncheon at Creek Side Restaurant.
Wanda Washington spoke to students about the importance of diversity in leadership.

Campbellsville Middle School recently named its Leaders of the Week for the week of Oct. 27.
They are fifth-grader Dakota Harris, sixth-grader Destiny Hicks, fourth-grader Mary Russell, seventh-grader Zaria Cowan and eighth-grader Casey Hardin.
This letter comes from far western Kentucky from the PVA in Fulton County, and is written to endorse Chad Shively for Taylor County PVA.
Chad took office May 17, 2013, after serving 10 years in the Taylor County PVA office.
The following letter is being written in support of Chad Shively remaining Taylor County PVA.
I have known Chad for numerous years through community events. He has done an excellent job during his short time as PVA. He has made numerous positive changes to include actively educating our community about the Homestead Exemption for senior citizens, has an open-door policy to personally address individual questions about property assessments as well as explaining how the property tax system works, and he is always there to show his support during community events.

Wenger bullish on Solskjær's chances at Cardiff City
Jan 1, 2014, 3:59 PM EDT
Ole Gunnar Solskjær has not been officially unveiled as Cardiff City's next manager, but after showing up with Bluebirds' owner Vincent Tan for today's match at Arsenal, the cat's out of the bag. Once thought to be out of the running for the vacant post, the former Manchester United striker's appointment is considered to be inevitable, with this weekend's FA Cup match against Newcastle expected to mark Solskjær's debut.
Young and with no Premier League managerial experience, Solksjær returns to England as a popular if uncertain bet, but to Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger, Solskjær has already displayed the acumen needed to be a successful Premier League manager.
"He has already experience as a manager in Norway, so he has learned his job," Wenger said after his team's 2-0 win over the Bluebirds on Wednesday (as relayed by the BBC).
"He was an intelligent player, so he is an intelligent boy as well, and that will help him to be successful."
Perhaps that's just the way Wenger talks — saying Solskjær "will be" successful instead of qualifying the assessment — but it also reflects the common conception of the young manager's potential. Seen as a possible Premier League boss since he retired at Manchester United, the former Norwegian international has been lauded for his intelligence and temperament, with his success at Molde lending credence to those early evaluations. Whether being an intelligent player necessarily translates into manager success isn't clear, but to some who followed his career at United, Solskjær's always been an obvious candidate for a Premier League squad.
Previously a candidate for Aston Villa's managerial position, Solskjæar has been on Premier League radars for some time. Now, after three years managing in Norway, Solskjær's ready to make the jump, electing to try to carry Tan's well-funded squad away from a relegation battle.
While many have noted the eccentricities of Tan while arguing Cardiff's not a good fit for Solskjær, Wenger still sees the Bluebirds job as an opportunity – at all young manager could ask for.
"It is a chance. Basically what you want when you are young is a chance, and you have to make the maximum of that chance."
After Wednesday's loss, Cardiff City have 18 points through 20 rounds, leaving them one point above the Premier League's bottom three.

By the time I finally got into my room, and got some things settled, I was ready to head out for a nice swim. I spent about an hour by the pool before coming back to the room to just unwind.

Hello Chess.com members! Would you like to be involved in the "Daily Puzzle"? Well here is your chance!
We are now accepting submissions for the daily puzzle. All you have to do is message user DailyPuzzle with the puzzle position in FEN format along with the solution and the level of difficulty (easy, medium, hard).
Could you be the one to confuse the Chess.com members with the ULTIMATE puzzle?
A couple of usual rules for chess puzzles I've usually found are that you must specify if en passant is possible and you must specify if castling is possible. FEN notation takes care of this with the fileds following the position.
For example this is the FEN of the starting position... (the "-" denotes no en passant.)

True, Nxa2 isn't forced, but 2. Kxa2 is mated by 2... Ra7#. Since the puzzler doesn't 'make' white's move... you simply have to respond to the move made.
The smothered mate isn't forced, but it is a forced mate in 2.
An easy puzzle, mate in 3. I wanted to show winning of a side with considerably less material.
I've got a recent one that I'm proud of. It's pretty easy, I think. Mate in 4:

NASCAR AMERICA: Monday's 'Scan All 43′ showcase (VIDEO)
Apr 21, 2014, 6:46 PM EDT
Today's special edition of NASCAR AMERICA on NBCSN brought together the best sights and sounds from the first four races of the 2014 NASCAR Sprint Cup championship.
The year began with a water-logged Daytona 500 that ultimately ended under the lights. When the race finally saw the checkered flag, it was Dale Earnhardt Jr. that lifted the Harley J. Earl Trophy for a second time.
After the pomp and pageantry of Daytona, the grind truly began at Phoenix International Raceway the next week. Phoenix saw the debut of NASCAR's new knockout-style qualifying format, and in the race, Kevin Harvick dominated the proceedings to win in his second start for Stewart-Haas Racing.
The scene then shifted to Las Vegas for the series' first race of the year on an intermediate oval. Earnhardt tried to claim his second win of the season while saving fuel in the final laps, but on the last lap, he ran dry – giving the win to Brad Keselowski, who happily punched his ticket to the Chase after missing it last season.
Then came Bristol, which had been met with initial trepidation due to how the knockout qualifying would work on such a small track. The issue of having to run slow laps on the track during qualifying in order to cool engines was settled when NASCAR allowed the teams to use cool down units in the pits.
Like Daytona, this race was extended into prime time thanks to persistent rains. Carl Edwards would reign supreme, even managing to stick the landing on his celebratory backflip as another shower heralded the end of the race.
For more clips from NASCAR AMERICA, be sure to check out the show's archive page.

First off, only a career Washington liberal would cite the IRS as an example of something which works and proof that states couldn't do it better. But more to the point, SB-1070 doesn't set immigration policy any more than it sets tax policy.
This fear campaign started by the White House, the media and the pro-amnesty groups that Arizona and other states would start trying to dictate new immigration laws is absurd and distracts from what SB-1070 actually does. In short, SB1070 empowers local and state law enforcement to protect their citizens from illegal aliens. And it does so not only in compliance with federal laws, but often written verbatim in concert with federal law.
Believe me, if we were changing immigration policy, America's borders would be secure, voter ID would be mandatory to both register to vote and cast a ballot, and all employers nationwide would be required to use eVerify to guarantee they were hiring U.S. citizens or legal aliens. But SB1070 doesn't do any of that, and no amount of posturing, or political theater, will change that fact.
In short, I left a few things for Congress to work on. To all members of Congress, including Senator Schumer, if you decide to get serious on stopping illegal immigration, you won't be alone like I was in your subcommittee. But if you keep ignoring it, we'll keep working in the states. I guarantee it.

Stock futures little changed after S&P hit five-year high

By Rodrigo Campos | January 12, 2013 12:42 AM EST
Stock index futures were little changed on Friday, a day after the S&P 500 hit a five-year high and following higher-than-expected results from Wells Fargo.
Wells Fargo
Basic materials shares could be hurt after China's annual consumer inflation rate picked up to a seven-month high, narrowing the scope for the central bank to boost the economy by easing monetary policy.
"The bigger news lies ahead of us in terms of earnings and also reports on Christmas sales, which seem to be poor so far," said Rick Meckler, president of investment firm LibertyView Capital Management in Jersey City, New Jersey.
Best Buy
Meckler said that in the absence of major news, the market will continue to absorb some of the money that comes in from institutional investors at the start of the year, which could give equities an upside bias.
S&P 500 futures dipped 1 point and were slightly below fair value, a formula that evaluates pricing by taking into account interest rates, dividends and time to expiration on the contract. Dow Jones industrial average futures fell 7 points, and Nasdaq 100 futures lost 1 point.
American Express said it would take a $600-million quarterly charge relating to 5,400 job cuts and payment of legal bills, a move likely to halve its net income. Its shares dipped 0.5 percent in premarket trading to $60.51.
In a move that could support US equities and boost the global economic outlook, the Japanese government approved a massive $117 billion of spending to revive the world's third-largest economy in the biggest stimulus plan since the financial crisis.

At a lean 100 pounds, with strikingly shiny hair and the legs of an athlete, Constable Derek Donn's partner is the full package.
"When we come down here (to central headquarters), the girls at the records counter have treats for him … they don't even know my name anymore," Donn joked Monday as he and his partner, Sultan, visited with a reporter.
Sultan is a police service dog — one of four in Hamilton's K9 unit.
On Tuesday, Donn and Sultan will be officially recognized as officer(s) of the month for July, after the pair single-handedly executed a high-risk takedown in Brantford.
Donn was in Ancaster when a call came over the radio about a vehicle fleeing an armed robbery scene, possibly heading to Brantford. He positioned his SUV by the highway and, sure enough, the gold van flew past.
The pair followed them to Brantford, where with Sultan's help, the three were cornered on a dead-end court and arrested — two of them before backup arrived.
And while that takedown earned the pair an award, Donn tells many more stories about police dogs sniffing out and tracking down weapons, criminals and stolen goods.
In five years, Sultan alone has been part of 460 calls and 80 arrests.
"It doesn't matter how big or small you are, nobody wants to mess with a police dog," Donn says of Sultan, who in his "off hours" lives with Donn, his wife and three kids.
"He knows when he's at home and when he's going to work."
Police dogs typically "work" for five to seven years before they retire.
Donn has been "blessed" to spend nine years in the K9 unit, and has been active in engaging the dogs with the community, including Christmas visits to McMaster Children's Hospital and public presentations at Mohawk College.
Hamilton's police K9 unit is 53 years old — the oldest in the province, and second oldest in the country.
Only one dog has died in the line of duty in Hamilton. Back in 1992, two-year-old Troy was shot and killed after he was sent in during a call for a man with a gun.
The presentation for Donn and Sultan will be at Tuesday's meeting of the Hamilton Police Services Board.
"We're very proud of our members and while it may take a few months to process the award, it doesn't take away from the excellence of the policing that they provide to the citizens of Hamilton," police spokesperson Catherine Martin said Monday.
