Trent Owens in as Almirola's crew chief at Petty
Dec 2, 2013, 3:18 PM EDT
Trent Owens has been announced as the crew chief for Aric Almirola's No. 43 Richard Petty Motorsports Ford in the Sprint Cup Series, marking his first full-time crew chief opportunity in NASCAR's top series.
Owens, a five-time winner in Nationwide Series competition, served as crew chief for Kyle Larson this past season at Turner Scott Motorsports' NNS operation.
Larson, who will compete for Sprint Cup Rookie of the Year honors for Earnhardt Ganassi Racing in 2014, earned nine Top-5s and 17 Top-10s under Owens' guidance.
Additionally, Owens helped Larson take his inaugural Camping World Truck Series win back in April at Rockingham (N.C.) Speedway.
"This is a great opportunity to join a Sprint Cup organization and a race team that can win," Owens said in a statement. "The No. 43 team has proven they can race up front.
"We just need to find a little more consistency to make the Chase. I believe we can put ourselves in contention for a Chase spot in 2014."
Almirola knows Owens from his NNS days when the two competed against each other. He's hopeful that Owens can help RPM find that missing consistency.
"He's a very talented crew chief who has accomplished a lot, but he's still very hungry to do a lot more," Almirola said in his thoughts. "Our team is the same. We're getting better, but we need more Top-10's, Top-5s and wins.
"I believe Trent can help us do that and he's a positive addition to the team."
Greg Ebert served as the No. 43's interim crew chief for the final four races of the 2013 season after Todd Parrott was dismissed following his indefinite suspension for violating NASCAR's substance abuse policy.

Got a killer deal on it & a 3000 watt Yamaha inverter. 1999 23 foot Mallard, think I'll be able to get this in a lot more places with less effort. My deer season opens August 10 & runs thru September 9th. My unit this year is fairly close to home but has a few places that are a couple hours away. If I'm not fortunate in the first few days were going to take it up in the hills and see what happens there.

The BMC Racing Team will race on the Asian continent when it competes in the inaugural edition of the Tour of Beijing, a WorldTour event, Oct. 5-9.
Exciting Race
The five-stage race begins with an 11.3 kilometer individual time trial that will be run on conventional road bikes. BMC Racing Team Assistant Director Michael Sayers said because the Tour of Beijing is a first-year race, not much is known about the courses. "What I do know is that it will be an exciting race in an amazing country," he said. "There are a lot of factors that will make it a good event." Brent Bookwalter said he is also excited to experience a new culture and new surroundings. "We don't get to see a lot of that and immerse ourselves in a whole lot of that during a bike race," he said. "But I've never been anywhere in Asia so just to see a new part of the world and see it through a bike race is a good opportunity."
BMC Racing Team Tour of Beijing Roster (Oct. 5-9):
Chad Beyer (USA), Brent Bookwalter (USA), Chris Butler (USA), Alexander Kristoff (NOR), Amaël Moinard (FRA), John Murphy (USA), Danilo Wyss (SUI), Simon Zahner (SUI).
Sport Directors:
Michael Sayers (USA)
Max Sciandri (ITA/GBR)
Doctor: Scott Major (USA). Mechanics: Geert Rombauts (BEL), Nick Vandecauter (BEL). Soigneurs: Chris De Vos (BEL), Maarten Vanduffel (BEL), Freddy Viaene (BEL).

The detail on this exquisite sterling silver bracelet makes it a must-have. An elongated, oval anhydrite cabochon serves as the backdrop; a .60 carat faceted iolite adds sparkle and shine. What makes this bracelet truly unique, though, is the stunning, highly detailed sterling silver openwork design that swirls in flattering circles around any wrist. This bracelet can be dressed up for the most formal occasion or worn with a casual outfit to complete your look. Bracelet measures 1-1/2" wide and fits an average-sized wrist. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
Filigreed curves and petals of sterling silver evoke the pageantry and romance of families dressed up in their finest for a weekend stroll along the waterfront. A cloudless afternoon sky is rendered in anhydrite's soft blue, while the darker blue of iolite embodies the color of the ocean.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

"I'll be talking about ISON itself, a little bit of comet structure and brew up a comet in front of everybody with my own astronomer brief-cooking segment," Dundee said. "... I'm going to talk about what we know about the comet, about comets in general, where we can expect to observe it and make my best predictions on brightness.
"... The comet is staying kind of faint in the pre-dawn sky, so we're trying to decide whether it is worth doing any observing before it rounds the sun on Thanksgiving day and whether the better viewings might be in December."
He said, however, there is a chance the comet could entirely self-destruct while making its way around the sun.
"Right now, through our telescope [ISON] would look like a light, fuzzy blob, so it's not brightening quite as fast as we thought it would. That doesn't mean it might not be blazingly bright as it gets closer to the sun, but right now it's staying rather faint," Dundee said.
According to www.nasa.gov, "[ISON] began its trip from the Oort cloud region of our solar system and is now travelling toward the sun. The comet will reach its closest approach to the sun on Thanksgiving Day — Nov. 28, 2013 — skimming just 730,000 miles above the sun's surface. If it comes around the sun without breaking up, the comet will be visible in the Northern Hemisphere with the naked eye, and from what we see now, ISON is predicted to be a particularly bright and beautiful comet.
"Cataloged as C/2012 S1, Comet ISON was first spotted 585 million miles away in September 2012. This is its very first trip around the sun, which means it is still made of pristine matter from the earliest days of the solar system's formation, its top layers never having been lost by a trip near the sun. Scientists will point as many ground-based observatories as they can and at least 15 space-based assets towards the comet along the way, in order to learn more about this time capsule from when the solar system first formed."
Dundee said another aspect of ISON that makes it unique is it isn't rotating very fast, with one face of the comet having yet to face the sun at all.
"That means when it rounds the sun, that face [of the comet] will face the sun for the first time and it may boil off a lot of new gases that make the comet extremely bright, but we don't know yet," Dundee said.
Encompassing 120,000 square feet at 100 Tellus Drive in Cartersville, Tellus includes four main galleries — The Fossil Gallery, The Weinman Mineral Gallery, Science in Motion and The Collins Family My Big Backyard hands-on science gallery — a 120-seat digital planetarium and an observatory.

It is time to define and start the precise guessing for December Snow Contest 2010.
Last year in December the summit recorded 48.1 inches of snow for the whole month of December. This can be found off the Weather section of the MWO web site in the F6 report for December 2009. How much snow will be recorded on the F6 for December 2010? This is the contest. Guess/select/divine the correct amount of snow in December and you will be declared the winner of the best last contest of 2010.
There are some rules (of course):
- The winner will be the person who has the closest guess to the amount of snow reported for December 2010 in the monthly F6 report.
- It does not matter if the closest guess is under or over the actual amount. The closest wins.
- Guess must be made to the tenth of an inch. Greater precision is a waste of time since you have no idea what you are doing anyway.
- Any contestant building a wind machine next to or close to the precip can at the summit in an attempt to prevent snowflakes from staying in the can, will be disqualified
- Any attempt to heat the precip can will force the Night Observer to kick you off the mountain. This holds true if you attempt to scoop snow out of the precip can.
- If two guesses are the same amount off from the actual amount (like, one is 0.5" over and the other is 0.5" under), then the guess which was entered first into the forum wins.
- Once an amount (to the closest tenth of an inch) has been taken, no other person can try to sleighride on that guess. One person per measurement, please.
- You may make one guess and any subsequent guesses and whining will be ignored
- All guesses must be made by 12:34.56 PM November 30th, 2010. Any guesses after that will be declared interesting - but, will be ignored.
- The person who attempted to move the mountain for the First Snow Contest is not allowed to enter in this one - even though they were not successful.
The winner - drum roll - will get a prize. Yes, a real thing to savor. To honor and recognize a new Mt Washington Observatory partner, I will donate a 1/2 pound box of Van Otis Chocolates "Soft & Creamy Centers" to the winner.
From http://www.vanotischocolates.com
"1007 - Soft & Creamy Centers
An assortment designed for all of you that just like chocolates with a soft center. (You won't have to press the bottom to find them in this assortment) You'll find a delicious variety of our cremes, jellies and other favorites here."
Go for it folks! The race is on and the games have been declared open. Go for the chocolates - and check out their web site for possible holiday gift ideas.
One might ask - why were the "Soft & Creamy Centers" selected for the grand prize? You all are a bunch of softies - and great supporters of the Mount Washington Observatory. Thanks - and may the best softy win.

It's a battery and it works. If you are looking for extended recording time this probably isn't the one for you. I wanted a second battery that wouldn't add bulk to my small camcorder. Two batteries and a wall charger worked out perfectly for my vacation. I charged both overnight then just packed the second one in my day pack. Being so small and light it was super easy and provided more than enough recording time. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

The Eagles continued their hot streak, beating Cazenovia in 4 sets 25-20, 25-22, 21-25, 25-22.
In set 1, The Eagles picked up where they left off last night, jumping out to an early 3-2 lead. Kareemah Muhammad led CSE early on with 4 straight service points. Not to be outdone, junior Ireyah Stevens continued her presence at the net getting another beautiful block, giving the Eagles a 9-6 lead. Subhana Wrights got into the action blistering a spike past the Wildcats defenders, giving the Screaming Eagles a 14-10 lead. Both teams would trade points for the most part of the last set. Leading 20-16, Cheyenne Grant served 3 points in a row to give the Eagles a 23-16 lead. Despite Cazenovia rallying a comeback, CSE held on for a 25-20 first set victory.
The Eagles continued to apply pressure in set 2 as they jumped out to an early lead. Subhana Wrights continued to shine as she had 2 straight kills to put the Eagles ahead, 10-8. The game continued to be a close one, as Cazenovia matched the Eagles point for point. With the Eagles up 20-18, Nicole Morera notched an ace that would help propel CSE to a 25-22 win.
The offense got off to a slow start in the third set. The Eagles struggled to find the kills they got earlier in the match. The Eagles would however, fight through it and tie up the game at 12. Just as the first 2 sets went, the two teams continued to trade points for the remainder of the set. Cazenovia eventually pulled ahead and took the third set 25-21.
The Eagles were determined in the 4th set to not fall behind early. CSE jumped out to a quick 5-3 lead and never looked back. The offense got rolling in the set with Wrights coming up with 2 big kills. Cheyenne Grant also chipped in with 28 assists while aiding Wrights in her kills. Even though Cazenovia continued to fight back, the Eagles proved too much taking the last set 25-22.

How To Make Creme Brûlée
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
Are you cooking something sweet for Valentine's Day this weekend? We asked our readers on Twitter and Facebook if there was anything they hoped to attempt for the first time this Valentine's, and crème brûlée came up. Crème brûlée is such an astonishingly easy treat, and I was happy for the excuse to revisit it.
Here's a recipe and step-by-step guide to making crème brûlée in your own kitchen — no torch or special equipment required, and you'll only need 5 or 6 ingredients to get that sweet, creamy custard with a shattering sugar crust.
Crème brûlée is really one of the simplest desserts to make. But like French onion soup it seems to be a dessert that many people don't realize they can make at home. It's such a staple of restaurants — it must be finicky and difficult, yes? No. There's no stovetop stirring, no need for a mixer. There are no specialty ingredients or tools involved.
All you do is mix up a few egg yolks with cream (although half and half will do as well — the custard just won't be as dense) and a little sugar. Bake, then chill and broil with sugar on top.
Some cooks use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar on top of the custard. But why buy a gadget for this one use? OK, some of us like crème brûlée a lot, and maybe if you're making it every week it's worth it to buy a torch. But honestly, the oven broiler will do a fine job. I follow Alton Brown's advice of putting the ramekins in a cold oven, then turning on the broiler. This helps keep the custard cool while getting the top crisp.
An oven-broiled crème brûlée tends to be a little more rustic, spattered with with craters of burnt sugar, blackened around the edges, with piebald pale spots here and there. I do not mind this. In fact, I like my crème brûlée just this side of burnt; I think that such a sweet, rich custard needs the dark, nearly bitter burnt sugar to balance it out.
So here you are: Crème brûlée. Happy tap, tap, tapping!
What You Need
This will make 4 servings of crème brûlée.
1 vanilla bean OR 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 egg yolks from large eggs
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
Pinch salt
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup fine white sugar
Four 6-ounce ramekins
1. Heat the oven to 275°F. If you are using a vanilla bean, split it down the center and scrape out its seeds into the egg yolks in a medium bowl. Whisk.
2. Add the confectioner's sugar and a pinch of salt, and whisk.
3. Add a drizzle of the cream and whisk it into the egg yolk mixture to lighten it, then add the rest of the cream and whisk.
4. Pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into another bowl. (If using vanilla extract instead of a vanilla bean, add it now, to the strained custard.)
5. Pour the custard into 4 to 6 ramekins or oven-safe bowls and place them in a larger baking dish. Fill the ramekins as close to the edge as you can; you do not want a lot of empty space between the surface of the custard and the top rim of the ramekin.
6. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven, and pour about 3 cups of boiling water into the baking dish around the ramekins.
The depth of the ramekins will control how long it takes for the custards to bake. When using very shallow dishes, with the custard less than 1 inch deep, bake for about 30 minutes. When the dishes are narrower and taller, with the custard about 2 inches deep, bake for at least 50 minutes, and up to 60.
How to know when the custard is done: The custard will be quite wobbly; it should jiggle from side to side when nudged. However, it should not be liquid in the center. It will be barely set, but not liquid. The custard will firm up considerably in the refrigerator, so take it out of the oven when it has set into that very-jiggly-not-liquid consistency.
Very, very carefully remove the pan from the oven, and remove the ramekins from the baking dish. Let them cool for about 5 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until ready to serve.
7. When ready to make the sugar crust, take the ramekins out of the refrigerator and dab their tops dry of any moisture or condensation.
8. Sprinkle a fine layer of sugar over their tops. The key here is for the sugar layer to be of even thickness. Sprinkle the sugar then shake them back and forth to distribute the sugar evenly. Tap out any excess sugar; you should be able to almost see the custard through the thin layer of sugar.
9. Move the top rack in your oven up as high as it will go. Place the ramekins in the oven on the top rack, and turn on the broiler. Broil for 5 to 10 minutes, rotating them frequently so that they broil evenly. Take them out when they are golden brown and bubbling.
Note: If you want you can put an upside-down pie pan in the oven to raise the custard up even closer to the broiler. This can help speed the broiling process.
10. It is traditional for crème brûlée to be served cold. If you like it cold, place the ramekins back in the refrigerator. They can be refrigerated for about 30 to 45 minutes before serving (no longer, otherwise the sugar crust may begin to soften). If, however, you like them lukewarm in the center, as I do, you may serve them after the sugar has set (about 5 minutes).

It was interesting to see that you put these in all different size/shape dishes. I did this once and some of them set up while others did not and one was overcooked. Is there a secret to doing this? Do you rotate them, put the deeper ones in the back maybe?
@nicole309 yes, I did that on purpose here so I could give baking instructions for different-sized dishes. I haven't made creme brulee in a while, so I wanted to doublecheck baking times for all these ramekins. I took the very shallow dishes out after 30 minutes, and left the others in for an additional 20 minutes.
Thank you, that is my husbands favorate dessert, now I can make it for him.
I don't think I've ever used confectioner's sugar for crème brûlée...
Yes, that is a new thing for me too. It's recommended in some recipes, like the one in Larousse Gastronomique. I think it's because the sugar doesn't really have a chance to dissolve in the custard before going in the oven.
Thank you, have always wanted to try this!
Creme brulee is my absolute favorite dessert in the world; thus, I wanted to share another recipe (and the one I've had the most success with): Alton Brown's!
I would highly recommend this recipe because I've made it many many times and it always comes out perfect. It would also pair well with the oven browning technique (instead of a torch) described in this post.
You can even watch the "Good Eats" episode it comes from (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiRcODBaUN4) which goes over how to cut the vanilla bean, cook it in the oven, etc.
Happy eating!
Thank you thank you thank you!! Creme brulee is my absolute favorite dessert, but I just assumed that like a creme caramel, you had to cook the custard first and that it was quite a long and complicated process, not to mention the whole torch thing! This looks so easy though. I have had a set of ramekins for years that I have never used, always telling myself that I would eventually learn how to make these myself! This weekend I think I will finally actually take the plunge! Just one question. If I wanted to make a flavored creme brulee, would I just infuse the cream first?? Like could I infuse the cream with some lemon zest and then strain it...or what about adding liqueurs?? Would you reduce the ammount of cream or just add a shot in addition?
I was making egg tarts for chinese new year and I get the feeling that it's commonplace to have egg mix leftover and people just toss it.
Just pour it into an extra ramekin and you've got creme brulee! And it was much tastier than the tarts actually...
@Christirei, yes, you could infuse the cream first, although this would mean heating the cream, then letting your zest or herbs steep in it for at least 15 minutes before straining. With liqueurs, sure! That's a great idea. But yes, I would balance out the liquid (take out an equal amount of cream to balance the liqueur).
Just found out my "ramekins" weren't.
Lesson: A Run-Through is not a waste of cream and bean ...
Thank you for being the first english culinary blog I ever read who can spell "crème brûlée" correctly. It just made me happy ! The accents are perfectly put.
A faithful French reader who loves her native language !
(On the "nobody cares" side, it's "ramequins": a small container that can be put in the oven. Thankfully, we don't have cupcake-caziness over here, but "ramequins" are pretty popular right now).
How important is the straining step? I don't have a sieve in my kitchen, and not convinced I want to get one, but would really like to try this recipe!
@Brooklynnina it makes for a smoother custard, but if you don't have a sieve in the house don't let that stop you! It's not a terribly big deal.
Great point about using your broiler. I remember seeing Julia Child in a TV segment on Creme Brulee that she preferred using the broiler becuase she felt it gave it a better sugar crust.
I have egg yolks and didn't know what to do with them. This is perfect!
@Loora, "ramekin" is the correct spelling in the U.S. If you want to buy one online that is what you have to search for. If you google "ramequin" it responds, "Did you mean: ramekin?"
I was so disappointed. I made this yesterday for Valentines Day and I baked it for 65 minutes and let it cool in the fridge for a good hour. It wasn't until after we had stuck it under the broiler for its crunchy topping and started crackign our way through that I noticed it was still liquid inside. I would just chalk this one up to one of many failed attempts and I'll certainly try again but what makes this one so tough to swallow (or not, in this case) was that I used my vanilla bean that I brought back from the Big Island of Hawaii. (sniff, sniff...) Bummer.
I made this last night. It wasn't a good recipe. It tasted like sweet scrambled eggs, and very much had that consistency. The top only browned under the broiler, it never hardened or crisped, and by the time it browned, the custard/egg mixture was warmed all the way through. It may make for a nice picture, but it is a terrible dessert.
the "broiler" in my rental's stove is on the bottom of the oven. :(
@DanielleSmith I'm sorry you didn't like this recipe. However, I think it's unjust to call it a "terrible dessert". If it tasted like scrambled eggs it was probably overcooked, or else you just don't like the taste of an eggy dessert. This is a classic creme brulee and as such will taste very much of the eggs.
@rosebud oh sad! :( Maybe I should specify a very specific shape and proportion of dish in this recipe, as it really does affect the outcome so much. But I wanted to leave it flexible...
@DanielleSmith also note the instruction above that the sugar has to set. Once it has browned the sugar needs to cool for a few moments to get crisp. If you ate it straight out of the oven then yes, the sugar will be soft. But if you follow the instructions above to let the sugar sit, if it has thoroughly browned it will inevitably get crisp. And if you don't like the custard warm you can put it back in the fridge to cool. The sugar stays crisp for about an hour.
Don't ever use the shallow ramekins. They ruin it. This is actually a really over complicated way to make Creme Brulee. For a creamy Brulee you need no less than 6 yolks. That's the traditional french way. Torches are cheap. Pick one up because if you burn the sugar like you've done here it means more than likely you've curdled the eggs. If it's in a shallow ramekin you'll definitely curdle the eggs.
This was so, so, so good. Thank you so much! This dessert, was easy to make AND absolutely wonderful! My trick to not burning the top was to put the broiler on high and keep the oven door open while I rotated the dish. The top, once cooled, provided the perfect crackle. Delicious. I am making it again today!
surferartchick is right, if you make creme brulee this way it will come out awful.
add your cream and 1/2 cup of plain white sugar ( not confectioners sugar ) into a sauce pan and just barely bring to a simmer
whisk your egg yolks in a bowl, then very SLOWLY add in a small amount of creme until all the creme in in the yolks.
this tempers the eggs so they don't come out like scrambled eggs.
also avoid the broiler to caramelize the sugar, if you follow this your creme brulee should be smooth and velvety not chunky, eggish and watery like the pictures
Quick suggestion for another bruleed dessert - poached and bruleed pears. Poach some peeled and halved pears in red wine with mulling spices for about an hour or so. Sprinkle with sugar and torch. Serve with ice cream. Your dinner guests will fall off their chairs it's so good.
It's been over 75 minutes and my crèmes aren't ready yet! Usually my oven runs at a just temperature and I have a backup thermometer just in case. What have I done to deserve such meanness on Valentines Day??
In my restaurant, we used the broiler but we would fill a roasting pan with cold water and ice, and place the ramekins in that before broiling. That kept the custard from getting hot and overcooking.
I made this exact recipe in 6oz ramekins that were circular and 2" deep and it only filled 2 ramekins (worked for us). It took well over an hour for me to meet the "set, kind of liquidy but not" setting for the initial cooking so don't fret.
I also planned these out the morning of so I had several hours to set in the fridge but noticed a significant settling in just the 5 min of resting at room temp before the fridge.
Will try @mygreenhome's recommendation to put these back in a cold water bath.

Visual Intoxication
Polish artist Alexandra Pacula's is known for creating oil paintings of urban scenes. The paintings demonstrate her love of the nightlife and the breathtaking envrionments across cities. According to her website, Pacula believes that there is a struggle to achieve greater levels of enjoyment in our seemingly content society. She believes that 'we explore various environments and activities in search of pleasure. Extravagant lights of night enviornments seduce us to participate in curious events, enticing us to experience new forms of satisfaction.' In Pacula's paintings, the depicted scenes capture those spectacular moments that ignites our curiosity. As you can see from Pacula's work, she does a superb job recreating the 'feeling of dizziness and confusion by letting the paint blur and allowing shapes to dissolve.' The paintings shown above does a good job reflecting the perspective of an individual wandering around a city at night.

A glance at the vacant storefronts in the center near the Interstate 205-MacArthur Drive interchange certainly confirms that new retail concepts are needed.
As the pondering of new retail ideas by the parent Northwest Outlets firm continues, another Tracy Outlets store — Tuesday Morning — is holding a final clearance sale and will close soon.
Elaine Yager, who has managed the outlet center for the past 17 years, reported that the number of stores in the center is down to 10, and the loss of Tuesday Morning will reduce it to nine.
Most recently, the Gap Outlet Store, Oshkosh B'Gosh children's store and Van Heusen men's and women's clothing all pulled the plug and moved to new outlet center near Livermore.
That much-larger, higher-end outlet center, which opened recently as Paragon, is now owned by Premium Outlets, the major outlet center firm in Northern California.
No doubt, the new Livermore outlet center has had some impact on the local center, but Tracy Outlets has never tried to go head-to-head with centers with high-end stores and instead has concentrated on mid-level retailers.
Earlier, however, the local center had lost other major stores with well-known names, including Reebok-Rockport, G.H. Bass and Liz Clairborne.
"Our owners realize we need a new strategy for the center, and they're working at developing one," Yager said. "They are serious about getting the right kind of stores that will make the center work."
The owners, Gary Patterson and Rick Cordes, have repainted the center in a five-color range and are considering new signage, she said.
"Besides Tracy, they have four other outlet centers, so some of the new ideas could come from them," Yager said.
The Walnut Creek-based firm's other outlet centers are in Anderson (near Redding), in Bend, Ore., in Post Falls, Idaho, and in Pasco, Wash.
The Tracy Outlet Center was opened in November 1994 by McArthur/Glen of McLean, Va., with 35 retailers. Two years ago, it had 21 businesses.
Yager noted that despite the empty storefronts, Tracy Outlets still has some solid retail establishments, including Levi's, Carter's children's wear, Famous Footwear, Lane Bryant, Corning-Revere and Hip-Gen.
"I just hope Tracy residents realize that our center is located in their hometown, and that we really want to provide the kind of shopping they want," the center manager said. "We're working hard to find the right niche."

As Glenn Moore's coverage of progress in creating a new football stadium at Tracy High School indicates, the current weather pattern of mostly sunny days is moving the project along at a good clip.
Originally, the construction schedule called for the project to be completed in time to hold Tracy High's graduation ceremonies at the new Wayne Schneider Stadium at the end of May.
That's still a hope, but Superintendent Jim Franco of Tracy Unified School District indicated earlier this week that the project may not be completed until sometime in June, and Tracy High graduation would have to be held at West High's Steve Lopez Stadium.
But, he added, there's still hope that with good weather, the Tracy High stadium could be ready for graduation day. It's going to be a photo finish.
