Everyone was very nice and helpful.
Dan Nangel did an excellent job of taking care of my needs and answering all questions. It was a pleasant experience, the best new car purchasing experience of all times.
good service
Drina McDonald was the first salesperson I talked with and she was very helpful and I came to trust her as time went along. It was because of this that I went through with the deal.
Working with the team at Mercedes-Benz of Wichita really set the bar for my expectation when purchasing any luxury vehicle. My salesperson, Nick, was both personable and professional, and the manager, Dalton, was easily accessible, and they both, as a team, really made my experience an exceptional one. They are not just trying to sell you a car, but also make sure you consider your purchase in a way tailored to your own needs and situation. Nothing but positive things to say about this dealership.
Steve, and Walser, were great to work with. The car is fantastic and just as described. Thank you Steve!
Well I have to say our salesman was very professional and personable. They have a great selection and amazing prices on some awesome automobiles.
Lam was very honest and patient with me from the get go and made the whole process seamless. I greatly love my new car and big Thanks to Lam and the entire Walser folks !
Chris in Service Dept. was very professional and got me taken care of on schedule. I come in from out of town so need for loaner car and quick service is a must. Roger Elliott
Stopped by this dealership passing through Wichita and was greeted by the sales lady. Super sweet and nice and took all the time we needed in answering our questions and finding the right vehicle for us. The process was fast, efficient and they got us in a vehicle and on the road again in no time. Dealt with both sales managers and both were pleasant and honest. Thank you Drina, Dalton and Austin for being professional, tolerant and knowledgeable and you will see us again in the future. Until then, we love our new vehicle and will be happy owners ...

Bisley ToolStor 11 Drawer Stationary Tool Cabinet - 1000H x 750W - 1 x 175mm, 10 x 75mm Drawer Config - BIS400317W.
- Price: £1,076.17 - In stock
- Model: BIS400317W
Bisley ToolStor 11 Drawer Tool Cabinet - BIS400317W - Overview:
Bisley Workshop presents our ToolStor 11 drawer stationary tool cabinet. This 11 drawer tool cabinet is ideal for organising your hand tools, accessories and small component storage. The BIS400317W is a heavy duty stationary cabinet that forms part of our Bisley ToolStor professional tool storage range. This cabinet can be used as a single unit or as part of a high end integrated workshop system.
The BIS400317W stationary tool cabinet has 1 x 175mm, 10 x 75mm high galvanised steel drawers. Each drawer has an 80kg UDL capacity and sits on heavy duty telescopic slides. The 19mm ball bearing slides provide 100% pull extension of 475mm, even when fully laden.
The 1 x 175mm, 10 x 75mm high drawer configuration of this workshop cabinet, along with the full width aluminium drawer handles, enhance drawer content accessibility, ergonomics and mobility.
This stationary tool cabinet has a heavy duty constructed steel carcass with overall dimensions of 1000mm high x 750mm wide and 550mm deep. This cabinet sits on heavy duty adjustable feet which are ideal for levelling the cabinet in installations alongside full length 40mm thick worktops.
Heavy Duty Galvanised Steel Drawers:
The 1 x 175mm, 10 x 75mm high drawers are positioned on a 25mm pitch and mounted on telescopic 19mm ball bearing slides. Our heavy duty industrial slides allow 100% pull extension of 475mm. The slides provide a smooth, noise free opening and closing action, whilst also supporting an impressive load capacity of 80kg (UDL) per drawer. Even when fully laden the smooth drawer action is not compromised.
The 11 heavy duty drawers are constructed from industrial grade galvanised steel, from which Bisley's distinctive drawer front profile and full width anodised aluminium handles are fixed to. The anodised aluminium handles have been ergonomically designed for pulling the drawer open along any part of the handle. All fixings are hidden internally in order to retain a flush front.
Our well-engineered ToolStor drawers incorporate clever design and thorough product testing. Bisley ToolStor drawers have been proof tested to 80,000 continuous opening and closing cycles whilst fully laden with 80kg.
Stationary Tool Cabinet Carcass:
The 1000Hmm x 750Wmm x 550Dmm tool cabinet carcass is manufactured using our advance robotic machinery. This process produces a precision made heavy duty carcass that meets the demanding industrial workplace standards.
The fully welded and reinforced cold rolled steel carcass provides the 1 x 175mm, 10 x 75mm drawers with a strong, protective and heavy duty housing. The front mouldings are 20.3mm thick and constructed 5mm thicker than that of competing industrial cupboards. This provides drawer protection from side on impacts.
A 1.2mm top and base panel increases the stability, whilst the reinforced base and base struts provide superior strength and structural integrity to the tool cabinet's carcass. The 750mm x 550mm strong reinforced steel base includes built in adjustable feet fitted. These are ideal for workshop installations and applying 40mm worktops to long and level cabinet bays.
The BIS400317W tool cabinet can support a top load of up to 1000kg (UDL) and can be used alongside any ToolStor cabinet or cupboard. 4 x pre-punched holes are situated at the top of the cabinet to allow a variety of 40mm worktops to be fitted.
Secure Locking Mechanism:
A combined heavy duty central locking and anti-tilt mechanism has been built into the 1000mm high x 750mm wide cabinet. When the central locking feature is not in use, the unbeatable anti-tilt mechanism acts as a single drawer blocking system that ensures only one drawer opens at a time. This prevents the possibility of the cabinet tipping forward while in use or in transport. Each anti-tilt locking mechanism is integrated into the rear of the carcass in a centrally welded protective steel channel. The 1,0,10 drawer layout is positioned within the rear of the steel carcass and configured on a 25mm pitch.
Textured Powder Coat Finish:
The 1000Hmm x 750Wmm x 550Dmm tool cabinet carcass is finished in a hard wearing RAL7035 light grey textured powder coat. This high quality Bisley finish completes the cabinets internal and external surfaces. The drawer fronts are available in Gentian blue (RAL5010), Crimson red (RAL3004), light grey (RAL7035) or Anthracite grey (RAL7016). The colour distinction between carcass, door and hand rail creates a smart, contemporary and ergonomic appearance suitable for any workshop or industrial workspace. The choice of colours allow you to select one that best reflects your workspace or your approach to business.

One in 10 kids has asthma, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and kids are more likely than adults to have an attack.
With that in mind, the forthcoming Gecko Caps medication-management system aims to keep kids on their doctor-recommended regimen. Caps, which fit over the top of any inhaler, collect data on usage. If your child has a smartphone, the device can sync automatically with the app (otherwise, it must be uploaded). Parents can look at the app to track usage over time, set a schedule of reminders that cause a particular cap to light up when it's time to use, and get alerts if the inhaler wasn't used at its schedule time. The data collected can also be compiled into a report for your doctor, says Dr. Yechiel Engelhard, founder and chief executive of GeckoCap. Kids get an app dashboard too, that awards them for consistent inhaler use and includes games that teach them about better asthma management.
Geckocap will be available this summer and is expected to cost roughly $40 to $50, says Engelhard. But worried parents may find that it's best to invest in a smartphone for their kid — without one, there's no realtime data or alerts for the use of a rescue inhaler
during an attack. (A separate dongle for such notifications is in the works, he says.)
Senior consumer reporter and "Deal of Day" columnist Kelli B. Grant travels to Las Vegas to find the best, the worst, and the most hyped gadgets at this year's Consumer Electronics Show. Join her as she roams the exhibit floor for three days, with dispatches here and on Twitter @kelligrant.

Top 10 Electronic Music Albums of 2012
Farewell, 2012. This year rippled with some fantastic releases; here's a list of my top ten albums from the past twelve months:
- Pye Corner Audio – Sleep Games (Ghost Box)
My favorite artist of 2012. The Head Technician outputs music worthy of a deliciously thick, foggy horror flick under the heavy influence of Warp Records' early days.
- Christian Löffler – A Forest (Ki)
A relatively new face to the ambient techno world, Löffler is coming soon to San Francisco with Andy Stott (January 18).
- Lumerians – Transmissions From the Telos Vol. IV (Hands In The Dark)
These local psych gods put on an outstanding show. They make sweet friends too.
- Can – The Lost Tapes (Mute)
This three disc set of master tapes contains rare material that was recorded, boxed and forgotten decades ago. So glad they were unearthed and released.
- Voices from the Lake feat. Donato Dozzy & Neel – Voices from the Lake (Prologue)
"S.T. (VFL Rework)" became the most frequently played track when I printed on the Windmill this year; I guess VFTL and letterpress go well together! They performed a memorable live set at Monarch in July.
- Jan Jelinek – Music For Fragments / Music & Birds (Faitiche)
I've followed Jan Jelinek over a dozen years with much devotion. His latest release is one of quiet sophistication, spare but crackling with texture and whimsy.
- Peaking Lights – Lucifer
A great album for summertime at the beach. "Beautiful Son" is a highlight:
- Ólafur Arnalds & Nils Frahm – Stare (Erased Tapes)
Nils Frahm's last album, Felt, was a 2011 favorite, and his latest collaboration with Arnalds seems a happy and productive one. Together, the two modern classical composers create a cinematic EP that's perfect for a late night drive.
- Andy Stott – Luxury Problems (Modern Love)
Like Jelinek, Andy Stott is another producer I've watched with keen interest over the years. He's come a long way from Merciless (2006), slowly growing his sonic palette into a dark fusion of lush IDM and driving percussive patterns, overlaid with heavenly vocals from Alison Skidmore.
- Monolake – Ghosts (Imbalance Computer Music)
Robert Henke gave a great talk and dropped a solid set at Unsound Festival in New York. His latest album transports one straight into the pages of a Philip K. Dick or William Gibson novel.

(Phoenix, AZ – September 10, 2003) Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard announced today that the State has prevailed against R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company in the Arizona Court of Appeals in a suit accusing Reynolds of violating the advertising restrictions of the tobacco "Master Settlement Agreement" (MSA) in connection with Reynolds' "Winston Cup" advertising.
The Court of Appeals affirmed a ruling of the Superior Court, which had enjoined Reynolds from placing its "Winston Cup" outdoor advertising at Phoenix International Raceway (PIR) at all times other than 90 days before and 10 days after the Winston Cup races at the site.
"This is a tremendous victory in the State's ongoing efforts to enforce the MSA's restrictions against marketing tobacco to minors and a victory for every Arizonan concerned about the health of their families," said Goddard.
The MSA, which was signed by Reynolds and other major tobacco companies in 1998, restricts tobacco companies' outdoor "Brand Name Sponsorship," such as the NASCAR Winston Cup Series, to a narrow window of 90 days before and 10 days after the sponsored events at the site. Reynolds wanted to leave its "Winston" signs up year-round at each and every Winston Cup site in the country, including the PIR. The Court of Appeals found this violated the language and intent of the MSA.
"If the Court had accepted Reynolds' position," said Goddard, "thousands of young people who attend non-sponsored events at Phoenix International Raceway, as well as millions of viewers who watch other televised events at NASCAR sites, would be exposed to Reynolds' pro-tobacco advertising."
Assistant Attorney General Craig Soland, who argued the case, noted that "the Court came out solidly in support of the State's view, upholding not only the State's interpretation of the language of the MSA, but rejecting Reynolds' attempts to divorce the language from the MSA's stated purpose of 'reducing underage tobacco use' and promoting the 'public health'."
"This is a victory for Arizona kids," said Goddard. "We are sending a strong message that the MSA means exactly what it says."

This book is the result of years of reading and thinking about, and discussing, the origin, nature, and purpose of mathematics.
Why is it so important for the Christian to behold the glory of God reflected in mathematics or anywhere else?
If there is "something there" in mathematics, the Christian cannot escape the consequences of the universal quantifiers which saturate Colossians 1:15–20.
There are two directions of mathematical inquiry: it can either penetrate into the other sciences, or it can mind its own business.
Christians believe the Mind partially revealed behind mathematics to be God's.
If mathematics is already thought out and constructed by someone, it is logical that there would be no contradictions.
No results found in .
Answers in Genesis is an apologetics ministry, dedicated to helping Christians defend their faith and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.

You may have already heard of various projects that turn farm animal wastes into energy: from Connecticut to South Africa, farmers and energy experts are finding innovative ways of turning this waste material (and often pollutants) into power for cooking, heating, and even electricity generation.
ABC News today takes note of such an effort in China: a nine-year-old ecological farm started to provide organic eggs to Beijing consumers and produces about 200 tons of chicken poop daily. That manure is now being converted to biogas, which is piped to homes in the nearby village of Shuiyu. The farm also uses the gas to generate its own electricity, which cuts its CO2 emissions by about 95,000 tons a year.
This is a first-of-its-kind effort in China, but investors are already considering building on the model with a farm in the southern Anhui province. It'll probably only make a small contribution to the country's recently-announced goal of cutting its carbon intensity 40-45% by 2020… but perhaps this concept will catch on in the other parts of China and Asia.

Today was our last day with our guest and my last day in Italy. We started our day with breakfast at our hotel and then packed up for the drive into Florence. We drove our guest into Florence, right where our journey began. It was our Tuscany tour coming full circle, it was surreal that we had accomplished and seen so much of Tuscany in just one week. From conquering the hills of Italy to each and every city we rode through, the trip was a success. This was my first trip with Austin-Lehman and I'm hooked! Seeing a country by bike is the best way to see a country and the only way I want to travel from now on. All of our guest during this trip came together as a group and had the time of their lives. I think everyone gained a new passion for cycling and traveling. Another huge hit was the introduction of the e-bikes (electric bikes) on this trip. Our Tuscany tour is a level four difficulty for the biking part and there is some tuff hills to climb. But with these e-bikes the hills of Tuscany are accessible to anyone. When I first got the call to go to Tuscany and document the release of the e-bikes, I knew the bikes were going to be great; but I had no idea they were going to be as powerful as they are. You know the e-bikes work when you have someone twice your age passing you going up hill with a big grin on their face. I even got on one of the e-bikes to see what they can do and its incredible the extra power they give you. You still have to pedal, they don't do all the work for you. But they give you that extra push you need to make it up the hill or just keep up with the group. The best part is the batteries last all day and when you're going downhill, you can recharge the battery. When you select the recharge function it also acts as a gear to slow you down, so your not having to squeeze the brake as hard as you can to slow down. These e-bikes are changing the game of cycling and the way people commute, we saw a glimpse of this in Europe as you can see more and more e-bikes riding around.
After we dropped our guest off in Florence, George (the guide) and I drove to Pisa where I was flying out of the next day. I spent a few hours walking around the city and taking a 1,000 photos of the leaning tower of Pisa. I even paid the 15 euros to walk to the top of the tower, but it was well worth it! Walking out to the edge of tower that is leaning is even a little rush for me and the view at the top was phenomenal.
After I was done saving the tower from falling over, I walked up and down the Arno river before I headed back to my hotel for an early morning flight.
That's it! My whole Tuscany adventure laid out in a few blogs. It truly was an adventure of a lifetime and something I will always remember. I got to see the Italy I always dreamed of, tried some new food and gained a new passion for cycling. I want to give a personal thanks to my guide George; he provided me and all of the guest with an unbelievable trip. To give you a little insight of the effort that our guides provide for our guest, it's a 6:30am-12pm job! Getting the bikes ready in the morning, going over the route directions, serving fresh fruit on a silver platter, being our translator, driver, motivation and our friend. After all that, he's planning out tomorrow while everyone heads off to bed. The crazy thing is that's about half of everything he is doing for the group. Always having someone there for you while your traveling is priceless and that's what makes Austin-Lehman special. We have the most experienced and dedicated guides in the business to provide you with the ultimate adventure vacation. So I invite everyone to stop dreaming of an adventure vacation and make it happen with an Austin-Lehman Adventures.
With love,
But that's not the last of me! I'm headed to Haarlem in Holland tomorrow to check out our Haarlem to Odoorn tour. So if you like flowers or cycling or traveling or just a good story, then I invite you back here for a taste of Holland. Also keep checking our website and Facebook for a lot more photos from my adventure!

The Holy Infant Jesus (Sto. Nino)
>> Monday, November 2, 2009
Every Friday, we venerate his name. Why the devotion? Because I too was once a child and now have my own child. I celebrate life, innocence, obedience, dependence, being carefree, youth, faith, hope and love. I believe in the miracles that His image has performed. I believe in the countless lives He has transformed. I believe in the child Jesus who knew at such a young age his fate. Yes, He lived an ordinary and simple life but he performed extraordinary works of kindness and mercy.
May Sto. Nino ever help us.

As the pace of change in information technology accelerates, business continuity management (BCM) continues to evolve rapidly within enterprises to meet increased market and regulatory demands. Significant business and technology changes need to be assessed by the enterprise from many perspectives, including impact on existing processes, associated risk, and how technology changes can be leveraged to improve continuity capabilities. This white paper provides an overview of the impacts, benefits and opportunities of four emerging technologies (virtualization, cloud computing, mobile devices and social networks) as they relate to BCM.

Look at me, firing out journal updates the day after I arrive! DSL rules. Olympia = cold, Portland = not as cold. But, like the guy in the bike shop told me, 'What did you expect touring this late in the year?'. True indeed. I wasn't expecting snow on the ground south of Olympia, thats for sure. My first day out was pretty perfect. Early start, sunny, no wind, flat, low traffic, some small roads that winded through farm communities. I put in 69 miles before doing my 'arrive in a small town' routine. It goes something like this: 1. Arrive in town, ask where the grocery store is. 2. Buy tofu, broccoli, ramen noodles (dinner), and bananas (breakfast). 3. Ask the cashier where there is a park with picnic tables. 4. Go to the park, cook dinner, set-up camp, ignore the bewilderment of passer-byers. 5. Go to sleep at some ridiculously early hour. The Thursday night town was Castle Rock and I settled in next to a monument dedicated to Harry Truman. Now if anyone ever asks what Harry Truman has done for me I can say that his monument in Castle Rock, Washington gave me a place to put my tent and sheltered me from passing cars.
My day into Portland was not quite as smooth. It started raining early in the morning; the clouds never lifted, but the rain stopped pretty soon there after. I had to decide where I was going to cross into Oregon, either on the freeway just north of Portland or on a small highway 50 miles to the north. I chose the small highway and I don't think I made the correct decision. Construction, no sidewalk, no shoulder. Shitty, to say the least. After that drama I had a straight shot on one highway the 50 miles into Portland. I've said it before: This is the type of riding people who have never bike toured imagine. 4 lane highway, very few towns, very little to look at. Just me pushing along slowly counting down the mile markers. So in two days I had both extremes of what you experience while touring. Funny. Oh, but to get into Portland I had to cross another bridge. Same circumstance. I just got behind a bus and hammered across. There was enough traffic that the car behind me really had no reason to pass.
Finally get to my friend's house and chill. We went out to see a skate video premiere and almost every road had a bike lane. This is the Portland I heard so much about. We stopped in a pizza shop and Ryan knew the kid = free vegan pizza. Loving it. By then, of course, it is raining, but we managed to ignore it and happily pedal home. It's Saturday morning, it's not raining, and I am stoked to get out and see all the bike and food related things I can do in this city that is well known for its abundance of.
After here it is a 12-day straight shot ride to San Francisco. After this weekend this hang out trip is going to quickly turn into a bike trip.

How Do I Help My Older Horse From Losing Weight?Posted: March 1, 2019
Horses are beautiful creatures that require different levels of maintenance and care over time. Even though horses today will often live longer than their grandparents and sustain better health, there's still a number of tips and tricks to follow to make sure your horse continues to have a productive career and wholesome retirement. When it comes to horses, father time and mother nature take its toll on the body in predictable ways. One of the biggest ways older horses are affected by old age is sudden weight loss. Keep reading this article to discover some helpful tips and advice on how to manage your horse's health and keep it from losing weight.
Old age will manifest in horses differently depending on the breed. Just because a horse is turning gray doesn't mean it requires a lot of changes. One horse may be well into its 20s showing no sign of decline while others show different complications in their teens. In most cases, the point in which a horse becomes older or even geriatric is when it can no longer effectively holds its weight. It's a common fact that horses over the age of 20 often lose the ability to process and absorb enough energy to maintain a healthy weight. Your 20-year-old stallion can quickly turn into a thin, ribby, and less robust version of itself. To help solve this problem, start by analyzing your horse's current feeding program. Take note of how much feed your horse taking in and assess whether it's the adequate amount of food and if it has all the appropriate ingredients a horse of his age would need to thrive. A horse's dietary need is often dictated by its breed, sex, age, activity level, and other statuses. Be mindful of these factors as you make any supplemental changes to your horses' diet. It sounds picky but handling your horse's diet is critical to its longevity as it grows older. Examine the unique components and ingredients to make the pasture, hay, and any other supplements all serve the right purpose. One common cause of weight loss in horses is a sudden decline in hay quality. Although you may be using the same trusted supplier, occasionally the hay is harvested before it reaches full maturity meaning the nutrient profile of the hay is far less than expected. Your supplier may not consider environmental conditions and how it affects the overall nutrient content of their product resulting in lower quality hay that won't have any positive effects on your horse.
Moreover, keep track of how much food is actually being consumed as this could be another reason why your horse is having trouble with its weight. Check your horse's overall health to make sure there's nothing internally with its teeth or digestion that will prevent it from consuming its daily intake. Addressing weight loss can be as simple as adding water to the feed is easier to digest or adding a supplement or two to improve gastro efficiency.
There's no crazy formula to caring for older horses. Like with people, the best thing you can do for your animal is staying vigilant and be proactive to whatever issues that may arise to prevent any hurdle from becoming a full-blown problem. Consult your veterinarian if your horse continues to show decline or to address any underlying medical issues. With proper care, your horse will live a full life well into retirement

As we all know, there is a little bit of maker in us all. No matter where that takes us on our own geeky journey and geek interests, there is something about being human that means we want to create, to solve problems and share that with the world. Just look at the year that has been, from innumerable Kickstarter projects, the resurgence of indie boardgames through the the amazing movement that has evolved from Caine's Arcade.
In another small corner, a couple of fellows have started their own little project to meet the maker and sharing needs they have. And I'm sure it will appeal to Geekdad readers.
Open Parachutes has come about to create simple solutions to everyday problems. The team consists of two men I only know as Jono and Damon. They introduce themselves and their project as such:
We believe products should not only tickle the eye, they should be user friendly, be planned obsolescence free and make people realise that clever logic was put into the objectified solutions. We have had no formal education in 'design' but practical experience, our passion and free experimentation is the basis of our design creations. We enjoy looking for problems and providing solutions to them. We question, we think, we create. We hope you like our offerings!
I like the introduction. It is simple and clean, like their philosophy. I am hoping to see thousands of small maker businesses emrge like this one in the coming years as we return to the value of building and making and sharing - while leveraging the power of the network and connecting globally.
Open Parachutes' first product is called the Cable Fondler. It is looking to help with that old geek issue of cables. This is a desktop cable management solution made from bamboo. I haven't got one yet, but it looks like a nice clean solution. It is $15 - and that includes worldwide shipping. More people should include shipping. You can check it out here.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) says the last Katrina trailer is now out of the city of New Orleans.
"Another page has turned in New Orleans' post-Katrina history," New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu said in a news release. "At the end of the day, FEMA trailers were never meant to be permanent housing units, so I'm glad that our code enforcement efforts coupled with FEMA case work has helped individuals transition to permanent housing."
The mayor says they have moved 230 FEMA trailers out over the past 14 months.
"For more than six years, temporary housing units were located on private properties, group and industrial sites, and in commercial mobile home/RV parks across New Orleans while the residents recovered from the devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina," said FEMA's Louisiana Recovery Office Deputy Director of Programs Andre Cadogan. "The transition of this final household is a huge success for our agency, the state, the city, local nonprofits, and all others who contributed to helping return normalcy to New Orleans and those who live here."
Officials say crews removed the last trailer Sunday after the final family moved into a rebuilt home last week.
The trailers were part of what FEMA calls "the largest housing operation in the history of the country."
In response to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, FEMA moved approximately 92,000 families throughout Louisiana into travel trailers, mobile homes and park models.
The agency notes that FEMA has provided approximately $5.8 billion to assist 915,884 individuals and families in Louisiana for hurricanes Katrina and Rita, including $4.2 billion in housing assistance for rent, repairs and replacement housing and $1.6 billion in other needs assistance for such things as furniture, clothing and replacement vehicles.

What's not is the creepiness of these photos of former FLDS honcho Warren Jeffs sucking face with his child-brides. The Smoking Gun got a hold of images of Jeffs with two of his spiritual wives, Loretta and Merrianne. Merrianne, pictured here with Jeffs, was 12 when this photo was taken. These photos were used as evidence in the ongoing FLDS custody trials. Jeffs is currently in jail for coercing a 14-year-old girl to marry a 19-year-old. [The Smoking Gun]

Since then, there has a been an explosion of excellent writing all over the JBlog world. I didn't know the JIBs were just around the corner, and little did I know how much things could change in such short time.
As you know, I was threatened with severe bodily harm if I blogged before my son's bar mitzva, so I invited 16 blog friends to guest blog at The Muqata over the past week and a half. I was a bit hesitant at first -- how many of them would actually accept my invitation? Yet within hours of sending out my email invite to them, I was overwhelmed by their bubbly enthusiasm to guest blog.
"Be careful what you wish for - it may come true"
Had I been able to go back in time only 7 weeks ago to when I wistfully wrote about the JBLOG heyday party I missed, and tell myself that a huge new carnival was only a few weeks away, and would be on MY blog...I doubt I would have believed it.
A quick reminder of their posts as as follows:
Jack from Random Thoughts, recalls his first trip to Israel...and how that amazing experience left its indelible mark on his soul. Whenever you are ready to come back Jack, we'll be cheering for you on this side!
Zeev from Israel Perspectives, already living in Israel (who I've had the pleasure of meeting) invites us to the Cafe Kitzoni - the comic cafe of the radical right. Actually - a place for bloggers to meet and have have some hot soup on a cold Jerusalem evening sounds like a lot of fun to me.
And then there's Chana, A Curious Jew. This enchanting and prolific younger blogger routinely manages to amaze me by her depth and breadth of knowledge. While she definitely did not belong at Templars, maybe she can find a place of learning here in Israel...that will inspire her even more.
Must Gum Addict. I found this blogger commenting on Orthomom's blog not too long ago, and as my kids are fans of "MUST" gum, I started reading his blog. Definitely a person with the right aliya orientation -- his recollections of a trip here (with great pictures) shows us where to be.
When I found my blog listed on Zion Report under "Blogs I would pay to read" -- I knew this was someone I had to connect with. He poignantly reminds us of the high price a committed Jew can pay for living in in Chutz LaAretz.
My good friend Jerusalem Cop who quit the Israeli Police Force, so as not to participate in the Disengagement this past summer, talks about Aliya -- and issues surrounding it, and why it's an option for everyone. Guess the movie his post titles come from, and you can chose what he'll blog about next.
Mirty HaBlogger has a great series she's currently writing about her stay in Israel in the early 70s. Feeling a bit under the weather at the time, she extrapolates on world peace via chicken soup. See her blog...she's a fantastic writer, and code scripter and fairy blog mother.
LabRab - the Yeshiva University synthesis of Torah Umadda writes about his visit to Israel as part of Operation Torah Shield II. This was of particular interest to me, since I celebrated my aliyanniversary last week as well, having come on Operation Torah Shield I in Jan 1991. Ever the nice guy, LabRab throws in an extra post with a DafYomi song. Thanks LabRab -- your calling for JIB support was very kind!
Wherever I am, my blog turns towards Eretz Yisrael and Israel Perspectives (?) along with JoeSettler's Jerusalem compass, Soccer Dad's home page (though his keyboard is still in the West), Shifra's husband when he davens late Friday afternoon; Purple Parrot's nice sentiments; LabRab's funny songs point to Rechov Sumsum; and J-cop even without cellcom reception...

Rafi of VampireFreaks.com recently conducted an interview with Glenn Danzig. A few excerpts from the chat follow below.
VampireFreaks.com: New [DANZIG"Deth Red Sabaoth"] is about to launch in June. How are you feeling about the final product?
Danzig: I like it. (Laughs) I am very proud of this record; otherwise I definitely wouldn't be releasing it.
VampireFreaks.com: I read that you chose to break away from the whole Pro Tools, overproduced sound that so many are relying on today and used quite a bit of '70s recording gear. What made you decide to go in this direction?
Danzig: I have always tried to avoid all that plug-in shit that is going around. Everything is recorded in a real studio. These are real drum tracks versus some drum-loops sequence. (Laughs) My main goal with this album I really wanted to do a '70s-type of record with a very contemporary kind of feel. Really had a blast making it.
VampireFreaks.com: You also welcome back Tommy Victor (PRONG) and Johnny Kelly (TYPE O NEGATIVE and SEVENTH VOID). What's it like working with these guys, as they seem to bring a new dimension to the music?
Danzig: I absolutely love working with Tommy; he is literally one of my favorite guitar players. It's amazing working with him in the studio; I can't even say one bad thing about working with him. He has been playing with DANZIG off and on now since '96, he's great.
VampireFreaks.com: I saw that you are bringing out Doyle and GORGEOUS FRANKENSTEIN on only the East Cost dates.
Danzig: Correct. They will only be on the East Coast dates.
VampireFreaks.com: I got to talk with Doyle and company when they came to Denver and he said he loves working with you on this and everything you are doing for the band. How is it working with him?
Danzig: Doyle is a really hard worker and I really hope that this ends up breaking for him. I really admire that he has the balls to not rely on his past and come up with a band that has its own name and its own image. What can I say?! The guy has some real guts to stand on his own and build his own following, which he has already started to do really well. He has already come out with an album and toured on his own.
VampireFreaks.com: When I saw them here in Denver, they blew the roof off of the house, I was pretty impressed.
Danzig: I think he is doing great. They played a show with us just recently and they are coming together very well; he has his own singer now. That is one thing I have told him all the time is he needs a frontman, not someone playing bass and singing but a singer who stands alone. So with that addition I think they have only gotten better.
VampireFreaks.com: I have to wonder, is there any chance that Doyle will again join you on stage and do a set of old MISFITS material.
Danzig: Well, that was just Doyle joining us on a few gigs. He came out two thirds through the DANZIG set and we did, like, eight MISFITS' tracks. I don't think that we will be doing that this time around. I think it is more important for him to step back from that and let people see him and his band alone. Also on the East Coast dates Johnny and Kenny's band SEVENTH VOID are going to be opening up.
VampireFreaks.com: Speaking of which, the metal community dealt with a huge blow with the losses of Peter Steele and [Ronnie James] Dio. What do you remember of them both?
Danzig: I remember co-headlining in '92 with BLACK SABBATH and at the time Dio was the singer. He was such a nice guy and an amazing singer. I have more of a history with Peter and TYPE O as we took them on the road with us in '94 on the "Danzig IV" tour. Peter was a bit strange, of course, but he was a very nice guy. Both will be missed very much.
VampireFreaks.com: One aspect I have always respected about that tour is that you took out bands that no one else was willing to give attention to. What made you decide to go that route rather than picking up mainstream acts?
Danzig: I just remember that nobody wanted, when I was starting out in any of my bands, to give us a shot. From the MISFITS to SAMHAIN and even early on for DANZIG, nobody wanted to take us out with them. We could be playing out and selling places out and nobody wanted to take us on tour with them. Whatever their reasons were, even with DANZIG they may have been scared of our audience or scared of us, they just didn't want to associate with DANZIG. We just didn't get any great opening slots (both of us laughing) ever! We really had to get out there and develop our own following. So I wanted to give back and take out bands that I really thought that people should see, even early on I always tried to take out bands with us that no one else would even touch.
VampireFreaks.com: Having seen so much, especially how the industry has changed, what advice would you give our readers who are aspiring musicians?
Danzig: Honestly, like anything, you have to really make sure that this is what you want to do. It's not easy, it's very tough and if you are expecting to make it overnight, it just doesn't happen that way. Also, the big thing is don't just make a demo and expect people to listen to it. You have to sit down make a CD and hit the road, force them to listen to what you have going on. Sometimes you will be playing in front of maybe 20-30 people but you have to do it, just like all the rest of us did to build a following. If you sit around at home, it is just not going to happen. (Laughs) Don't forget to be honest with yourself.

The debate over the tree of life has implications concerning the distinction between "prokaryote" and "eukaryote." I was checking some recent papers and came across one by Doolittle and Zhaxybayeva (2013) that seems particularly relevant. They discuss the evidence for and against the division of life into three domains and the attempt by Norm Pace to ban the word "prokaryote."
The authors point out, once again, that eukaryotic genes are most closely related to genes from cyanobacteria, proteobacteria, and archaebacteria, in that order. The majority, by far, have their closest homologs in bacteria, not archaebacteria. The most likely explanation is that euakryotes are chimeras resulting from fusion of an archaebacterium and a eubacterium plus genes transferred from mitochondria and chloroplast to the nuclear genome.
Why, if the Archaeal signal is the weakest, is the Archaeal/eukaryote sister relationship enshrined in textbooks, and the concepts of paraphyly employed so enthusiastically by Pace in his effort to discredit "prokaryote"? Of course, even if the preponderance of data were all that mattered, prokaryotes would still be paraphyletic, with eukaryotes seen as sisters to the Cyanobacteria or Proteobacteria. But the more we come to see eukaryotes as a chimeric clade, established by symbiosis, cell fusion, and LGT, through the active participation of several or many prokaryotic lines, the more aptly descriptive the "eu" and "pro" in "eukaryotes" and "prokaryotes" begin to look.Theme
The Three Domain HypothesisThey point out that biologists have a tendency to simplify and the simple Three Domain Tree of Life satisfies a natural urge.
And yet, such natural kind thinking comes naturally to biologists, generating much of the heat in our arguments. Insistence that the grade distinction between prokaryotes and eukaryotes must be discarded because it conflicts with the division of living things into clades reflects a belief that "the one true taxonomy of the universe" is the Tree of Life—to which concept, as loyal Darwinists, we feel we must cling. And yet, because of chimerism and extensive LGT, that Tree means much less as a description of what organisms are like and how they came to be that way than Darwin himself would have ever imagined (Doolittle 1999; Martin 2011).Most biologists haven't thought very much about this issue and that's especially true of those who teach undergraduate courses. Let's think about the ones who are up to speed. They realize that the simple tree of life is probably wrong or, at the very least, seriously misleading. Should you tell undergraduates that the history of life is a lot more messy that what they learned in high school?
Furthermore, the Tree unambiguously depicts three discretely defined monophyletic clades if and only if we accept as settled many highly arguable propositions about how evolution proceeds, about what the data say in that regard, and about how classification is properly to be pursued. Some of these propositions, reviewed here, are that (1) in spite of the testimony of most of their genes, the "one true" way to look at Eukarya is as sisters to or emerging from within Archaea; (2) in spite of very sophisticated recent analyses of those genes thought to be most truthful, sisterhood (rather than emergence from within) is the right way to understand this relationship; (3) Bacteria and Archaea are themselves properly described as monophyletic clades, even though it is but a few percent of their genes that tell us this, with the preponderance of genes saying that they comprise a single, albeit highly structured and admittedly very slowly mixing population; (4) that it makes sense to speak of LUCA, either as a single cell or species or (alternatively) as a heterogeneous population extended over time; (5) that it makes sense to describe LUCA (of whatever type) as something other than a prokaryote. None of these is provably wrong, but none will ever be proved right, and all are matters of opinion, not fact. Definition-dependent, supposedly logic-driven arguments on the use of "prokaryote" seem doomed to failure by the same criteria with which they are undertaken, coupled with the vast underdetermination of any of our current theories about early cellular evolution (Vesteg and Krajcovic 2011; Forterre 2011).
Here (below) is an example of what scientists are teaching in undergraduate classes. This is a lecture by Jonathan Eisen—an expert on phylogeny—given to a class of undergraduates in the Fall of 2012. It presents the case for three domains in the strongest possible terms. Students are not told about any alternatives.1
I ask a serious question ... is this what we should be teaching undergraduates? Is the real biology too complicated for them? Is it okay to simplify even if we know that we are misrepresenting the truth?
1. There are very few characters that are exclusive to eubacteria and/or archaebacteria. For example, many gram negative bacteria have lipids with ether linkages and most eubacteria have DNA binding proteins that organize their DNA into complex supercoiled, looped, structures.
Doolittle, W.F. and Zhaxybayeva, O. (2013) What Is a Prokaryote? The Prokaryotes: Prokaryotic Biology and Symbiotic Associations, 21-37. [doi: 10.1007/978-3-642-30194-0_114]

Today I will start by submitting something that a lot of people asked me to do in the past but I never got around to drawing it out and posting it to the site. Today all that is going to change because I will finally show you "how to draw Hatchetman", step by step. If you are a fan of the hip hop band 'Insane Clown Posse', you should definitely know who Hatchetman is. He is the icon character that is the logo for their record label, 'Psychopathic Records'. Hatchetman started off as being just a scribbled character drawn on a napkin that was created by Joseph Utsler. There is a lot more to tell about this famous and or popular band, but since I plan on doing a tutorial on the actual two characters or singers, from Insane Clown Posse. For now I think you will enjoy the fact that you will actually be learning the skill to drawing Hatchetman because after all, isn't he a popular figure as well? Stick around guys because there is more drawing fun to come. Adios people and don't hack up anything too much.

We've struggled with this question as well. Being a community manager for our customer-facing community, I'm always on the lookout for fresh new content. So for selfish reasons, I'd like the corporate blog to live and breath on our external-facing community. But overall, your organization's strategy for blogging should be clear as well as how you foresee it changing in the future. Will it contain (or eventually contain) topics on products, pricing and marketing messaging? If it does or will, I feel like it would detract from the quality of the user-generated content.
Our corporate blog lives outside the community on our corporate site. As new corporate blogs are published, I seed a discussion post in the community with a short summary and point to the corporate blog. I give the members the choice of whether to continue on and read the entire entry.
You can be strategic about what the discussion post contains, keying in on phrases and tags to boost SEO rankings for the community, and at the same time send referral traffic to your corporate site. Hopefully you consider this a win-win.

Here in the Jive community, the Jive Talks corporate blog post strives to be one that shares industry-centric thought leadership from our executives, but often it is used to share Jive news and marketing messages. We occasionally host guest posts as well. Overall, the feedback we've gotten is in line with your concerns.
The hard part is finding enough time for executives to 1) think about what to blog about that provides value to the community; and 2) write it. They're super-busy folks.
I really like what Dan describes, as it segregates the corporate voice from the UGC voice.
I think a good hybrid approach is to brief your execs on third-party research, news, and trends that pertain to your industry, and have them write their opinions and thoughts on it. That's a good start if being thought leaders in your industry is an overall corporate goal. Another approach is to create a programming calendar with topics that will always matter to your community, or to your community members' executives, and help your execs write blogs by giving them high-level outlines to evolve.

Thanks, Gia. I like this approach a lot as well. Glad to have some good options at this point!

Hi Dan,
This is extremely helpful. I really like your hybrid solution - definitely a win-win. Will run by our exec team, and will keep you posted on what they decide to do.
Thanks so much,

We discussed this a bit at JiveWorld in a group (led by Kathryn Everest, in case one of the Jive folks wants to reach out to her...).
A funny story that someone brought up was a CEO who agonized over a blog post where he wrote about his favorite hockey team. He was all worried that it would seem unprofessional, but he REALLY loved the team. He posted it—and people loved it, and it helped him to become more confident with blogging in a personal voice.
Another part of the discussion that I thought was interested is how execs these days are used to having an entire marketing department behind them, crafting strategy and writing, and creating "sanitized" content, which conflicts with the best of blog content, which is usually personality-rich.
The takeaway: if appropriate, encourage people to write in a personal tone about stuff they honestly care about, and the reaction will most likely to be positive. Another tip from this group discussion: How do you get execs to take the leap? We concluded it was a bit like a high school dance—get the most daring person out on the dance floor, and others will follow!
Hope that helps.

Thanks Christine - super helpful. the challenge is getting the C-Team to write "personality-rich" material. One can always hope or nudge along...

We have a corporate blog that currently sits on WordPress and is used by several members of our e-staff and the majority of our product marketing managers. I think it definitely enhances our web site and our community. Our blog atuhors usually tweet about what they have written and we feature the blog postings on our appropriate product pages on our website. We are curently in the middle of a project to actually migrate off of WordPress and into Jive so they can also be integrated into our communities.

On Exhibit: Kelp Forest
Animal Facts
Scientific Name
Melibe leonina
Animal Type
copepods, ostracods, and other small planktonic animals
to 4 inches (100 mm)
sea hares, sea lemons, Hopkin's rose; Order: Nudibranchia; Phylum: Mollusca
Alaska to the Gulf of California
Natural History
This melibe is like no other nudibranch (sea slug). Instead of a rasping tongue, it sports a unique oral hood that captures small planktonic animals. To feed, a melibe firmly attaches itself to a kelp blade and then sweeps its raised hood downward or to the side. When food lands on the lower surface of the hood, the melibe sweeps together the two sides of the hood, and its fringing tentacles lock in the prey. The hood contracts to force the captured food into the melibe's mouth.
Melibe and the giant kelp plants they live on have matching colors—yellowish brown to olive green. Melibe are hermaphrodites (they have both male and female sexual organs), and fertilization is internal. The animal can lay as many as 30,000 eggs, which are enclosed in a long, gelatinous ribbon.
This unique and amazing animal is neither collected nor hunted, but its existence depends on healthy kelp forests and other seaweed beds. Sludge and other pollutants smother tiny kelp plants during their microscopic stage. As stewards of the ocean, it's crucial that people around the world properly dispose of wastes, chemicals, solvent and paints that can harm nearshore habitats.
Cool Facts
During the warmer months, huge numbers of melibe appear in kelp canopies and eelgrass beds. Although they prefer to stay attached to a surface, melibe do swim when dislodged or if they're approached by a kelp crab—then they close their hood to reduce drag.
Most predators avoid the noxious secretions of nudibranchs, but the kelp crab is an exception.
The noxious secretions of the melibe smell like watermelon, according to aquarists who clean the melibe exhibit.

First of all you need to take off the weather seal, just a few plug type clips and three hidden screws.
Then that will reveal the metal strip behind it which helps hold the weather seal in place. This is held on by three screws and double sided tape.
Carefully peal that off.
Now this is the tricky part. There are three clips holding the trim on. One at the bottom, middle and top. Ofcause if all these clips went the same way there is a high risk of it falling off. So they (Nissan) made the bottom and middle clip the same but the top clip is the opposite. Bottom and Middle slide downwards off the clip and Top one slides up off the clip.
So the easiest way to do this is to lever the top clip out. They use a 'bee sting' type of clip. If your clever enough *like me * You'll find you'll be able to put some outwards force on it, lever the top stinger down and it will pop out then do the same with the bottom one and the 'bee sting' is now out.
There... that's the hard part done.
Now holding the trim flat as possible (ie. in the closest position as possible as it is when on the car) hold the bottom part with one hand and other hand still holding the top part out enough that the clip doesn't go back in push downwards.
Now with a bit of force the trim will all of a sudden clip off.
Then you can easily take out the remaining two clips.
Once you've done that side the other will be easy!
Hope this helps. I know these trims are getting rarer so that is why i felt the need to finally give away the secret.
I WILL be having some of these made up in the near future so that there is no more need to pay the rediculas price Ni$$an are charging for them. $300+ A SIDE.
Note: The proper way to get these off (which usually yeilds in a broken one). Is to push the trim downwards, the middle clip will slide off. Then slide it upwards, the top clip will slide off. Then downwards again and it will come off the bottom clip.
All that without the need to take off the weather seal etc etc.
But as i said... usaully ends up with a broken one if you haven't done it before!
Just an addition to the above post. When putting them back on, it is a good idea to stuff the gap behind the beesting clip with some cardboard or silicon or something. As they are the parts that are prone to breaking.
Especially when your trying to push them back in!

Sure, it's been a wild couple of weeks in Colorado weather, but that's just how December rolls into January around these parts.
The high in Denver today was 36 degrees, 7 degrees colder than normal, according to National Weather Service data. It felt about 10 degrees colder because of the humidity in the air from the steadily melting snow and lingering breezes, forecasters said.
Twice in the past week, however, the Front Range and foothills saw wind gusts in excess of 100 mph. In Summit County Saturday, as easterly winds raced up to the Continental Divide, Frisco clocked winds that the speedometer on the average U.S. automobile couldn't measure: 126 mph.
That followed a foot of snow and bitter cold the week before at my house in Edgewater.
Could we get a warm, sunny day, Mother Nature? Prayer answered: Denver could hit 60 degrees Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, according to the forecast.
But if it's wacky weather we're talking about, this stretch is button-down dull.
Take Jan. 1, 1875, when the temperature fell 27 degrees in two hours in the city, from a balmy 43 degrees at 3 p.m. to a ch-ch-chilly 8 degrees at 5 p.m.
And twice — in 1952 and 2003 — a pittance of snow fell in Denver on New Year's Day, and that turned out to be just about the only recorded precipitation the entire month, according to records.
The 0.01″ of snow in 1952 tied the driest January in history with consecutive years, 1933 and 1934. The 0.03″ in 2003 tied with 1935 and 1914.
The coldest temperature ever recorded in Denver was minus-29 degrees on Jan. 9, 1875 — enroute to the third-coldest January on record, a daily average of 18.1 degrees.
Over the past 30 years, Denver has averaged 7 inches of snow in January, with an average daily temperature of 30.7 degrees.

Wallaced earned her second-straight all-tournament recognition at the Aztec Invitational (Gil Talbot).
SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The Harvard women's volleyball team split a pair of matches Saturday to wrap up play at the Holiday Inn Mission Valley Aztec Invitational. The Crimson defeated Southern Methodist in its first match, 3-2, before falling to San Francisco, 3-1.
Kathleen Wallace led the attack against SMU, recording 12 kills and a .346 hitting percentage. Caroline Holte and Corinne Bain each notched 10 kills with Bain adding 25 assists for her second double-double of the year. Wallace again was on the offensive against San Francisco, totaling 13 kills while hitting .522.
Wallace was named to the all-tournament team following the conclusion of play. The sophomore averaged 2.15 kps while hitting .299 on the weekend.
Harvard led nearly the entire way in the first set against SMU and registered set point, 25-23, on a Holte kill. An 8-2 run late in the second set allowed the Crimson to pull away for a 25-19 victory, with Shults tallying the final score. The Mustangs rebounded to take sets three, 25-22, and four, 25-28, before Harvard persevered in the fifth with a 16-14 triumph.
The Crimson could not carry the momentum into the nightcap as San Francisco registered a four-set victory, 25-20, 25-9, 16-25, 25-20.
Harvard will be back in action Wednesday, Sept. 18, against UMass-Lowell at 7 p.m. in the Malkin Athletic Center.

The White Sox have traded Josh Fields and Chris Getz to Kansas City in exchange for infielder-outfielder Mark Teahen, the White Sox have confirmed. Teahen hit .271 while connecting on 12 home runs and driving in 50 runs last season. The 28-year-old lefty has spent his entire five-year career with the Royals. The move likely means Jermaine Dye, who is a free agent, will be replaced in right field by Teahen. …
More from Cowley:
But if the versatile Teahen is now a South Sider, the deal could have been made to move Gordon Beckham to second base. Two weeks ago, manager Ozzie Guillen said that he saw Beckham as a future second baseman when asked if Beckham could ever return to his natural position of shortstop. The 28-year-old Teahen hit .271 with 12 homers and 50 RBI last season, and can play third base, as well as the outfield. The other option is that the Sox will play Teahen in the outfield, moving Beckham to second and clearing the way for the push to sign free agent-to-be Chone Figgins.
And Gonzales:
There also is the possibility that Teahen could take over at third base, with rookie sensation Gordon Beckham moving to second base. Teahen could maintain the third base position until Brent Morel is ready for the majors in 2012 or sooner.

Avril Lavigne
Pop music star Avril Lavigne was originally packaged as a hard-edged Britney Spears for the skateboard set; her website described her as "a skater-punk, a dynamic spirit, a true wild child." Avril Lavigne was born in a small town in Ontario and grew up singing in church. At age 16 she caught the eye of record producers, who had plans to make her a pop star in the mold of fellow Canadian Shania Twain. Instead, Lavigne teamed with songwriters and came up with hit tunes such as "Sk8er Boi" and "Complicated," the latter of which was featured on the show Dawson's Creek. Lavigne was only 17 when her debut album Let Go was released (2002); the album netted her five Grammy nominations. Her next album. Under My Skin, was released in 2004 and reached #1 on the Billboard album charts. In 2006 she announced a deal with the powerhouse Ford Models agency, and told Harpers Bazaar magazine she was hoping "to do those really beautiful ads with high-end products." Throwing her 'punk' tag even further out the window, she released the single "Girlfriend," a bouncy teen-pop ditty from her 2007 album The Best Damn Thing. She released the album Goodbye Lullaby in 2011.
Avril Lavigne married Deryck Whibley, frontman for the band Sum 41 and a fellow Canadian, on 15 July 2006. They split up in 2009 and were divorced in 2010… In August of 2012, Avril Lavigne announced her engagement to Chad Kroeger, front man for the band Nickelback. They were married on 1 July 2013. It was Kroeger's first marriage. He was 38, Lavigne 28 at the time of their marriage.

Tested with real cooking passion: the new NEFF ovens
We invited six people to dinner, six NEFF Chefs, to make six courses using the new NEFF appliances. Centred in the kitchen and around the table, we cooked and ate with NEFF using fresh ingredients and adding our unique NEFF Chefs twist to serve a meal for all to enjoy.
An oven for every NEFF Chef
Nothing gets in the way of cooking, not even the oven door
Watching Gian Paolo cook, it's easy to lose track of exactly what he's doing. But what others call "chaos," he calls "artistic freedom." So it's quite convenient that Slide&Hide gives him more room to enjoy that freedom.
Accessible, Space saving, Unique
Thanks to Slide, when you open and close the oven door the handle rotates with it, so you maintain a firm hold and never have to change your grip. With Hide, the oven door disappears beneath the oven compartment. Hide puts the door out of your way, while Slide offers more freedom of movement in the kitchen.
I have lots of hobbies: Oven cleaning isn't one of them
Luisa's preparing a vegetable gratin: "The recipe is super easy, the only difficult thing is cleaning the oven afterwards! However, with Pyrolytic self-cleaning it was no big deal. Really, all I had to do was wipe the ash out afterwards."
Relaxing instead of cleaning
Pyrolytic self-cleaning is the most thorough way to clean your oven. At 485°C everything turns to ash. Once the programme has finished, just let the oven cool down and wipe it out with a damp cloth. That's all there is to it.
Taking cooking to a whole new level
With CircoTherm you can cook, roast and bake completely different dishes on all levels and everything will come out tasting like it's supposed to. No intermingling of flavours, the roast meat will taste like roast meat and the muffins will taste like muffins.
The best thing you can do with hot air
The high performance hot-air oven for simultaneous cooking of different dishes on all levels. Heat wraps around the food to ensure flavours don't mix.
I'm always hunting for new recipes
Malte brought along some meat which he'll be roasting in the oven. "I don't insist on meat every day, but I use it in most of my dishes. I like a really good cut. Ideally meat should be crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. VarioSteam is the best cooking programme to perfect a joint of meat.
For perfect baking and roasting results
VarioSteam gives dishes just the right amount of moisture by adding steam at three intensity levels for baking, roasting or heating up. Foods come out with a more intense flavour and a very appetising appearance.
Vegetables so fresh you can taste each vitamin
Sophie loves vitamin-rich ingredients. "Two years ago I started switching to healthier foods. I frequently visit open-air markets looking for seasonal vegetables like sweet potatoes and parsnips - vegetables with lots of nutrients. Of course, I don't want the nutrients to get lost during preparation so gentle steaming in the FullSteam oven is ideal!"
The perfect choice for health conscious foodies
With the new NEFF FullSteam oven you can combine functions like VarioSteam and CircoTherm or use pure steam to cook your ingredients.
It's great when my oven has as many ideas as I do
Laura creates the dessert - it's a strong passion of hers as she does it for a living at her café. "I like to do everything myself as much as possible, so I was surprised, in a good way, at how the Baking&RoastingAssistant took so much work off my hands by setting the right mode of heating, temperature and duration for me."
I made it. The Baking&Roasting Assistant prepared it perfectly
If you tell it to, the Baking&Roasting Assistant will set the ideal type of heating, the exact temperature, the cooking time and automatic steam injection.

Modified Mustangs & FordsFeatured Vehicles
1966 Ford Galaxie - Going Big
Mike Patak's '66 7-Litre convertible packs a huge surprise
What's your thing? Loud and proud? Small and nimble? Quick and flashy? Hey, this is America, where you're free to do your thing.
Not that long ago, our thing was big. Big front to back, big side to side, and of course, big under the hood.
Even the name was big—Galaxie—named after a heavenly body of colossal proportions. That's what we've got here: Big, whoppin', mondo, gigando, mucho grande. Big everywhere. Big in every possible way. Dig it.
The actual model is a 7-Litre Galaxie, Ford's premium fullsize model built to showcase Ford's new-for-'66 428 engine. What about the world-beating 425hp 427? It was available too as an extra-cost option on the 7-Litre for the handful of customers who wanted the highest possible option.
But if you knew your stuff, if you really had your finger on the pulse and your ear to the ground, you knew that there was one more step in the quest for the ultimate. Deep within the system, Ford had something even wilder, hotter, and yes, bigger. But you had to know where to look, who to ask, you had to have some strong scratch, and you had to know the insider's code.
The trick was to go past the option list. This engine was off-menu, so forget the salesmen and order forms. Walk out of the showroom and head for the parts department. "C?" was the part number you asked for. That was the parts department code for a complete 427 SOHC crate engine. Choose single four-barrel or two four-barrels. Either way, you're getting more than 600 hp.
Ford never released official horsepower numbers for it, but in a very rare report to the Society of Automotive Engineers, the single 4V engine cranked out 616 hp on the dyno. Impressive, no? But if you look closely at the dyno chart you'll see the output was still climbing. So how much power did the 427 Cammer really make? And how much did the 8V version make? The number will remain a mystery. But we're pretty sure it made more than the skinny bias-ply tires of the day could possibly keep up with.
Ford's original plan was for the Cammer to be a next-level response to Mopar's 426 Hemi. The SOHC Cammer engine was going to join the 1964 options list in progress, but after a dog-and-pony show at the Rouge plant's engine assembly for NASCAR's founder Bill France, the Cammer was disallowed. NASCAR was troubled by the trend towards increasingly exotic, low-volume engines, and France decided it was time to draw the line. That left Ford with tooling for an incredible engine, and a handful of engines already produced.
A few wound up in drag racing, and a few more showed up in exotic rods and show cars. Once the inventory of Cammers was sold, it was all over. The engines out in the field bounced around among those with pockets and a taste for the exotic.
Photo GalleryView Photo Gallery
One of them bounced into this Candy Apple Red '66 Galaxie 500 7-Litre convertible decdes ago. Its early history is, like a lot of cars, fuzzy, but it's been a member of the Cammer club since the 1970s. Unconfirmed word was the car was built at Holman-Moody.
Owner Mike Patak has a thing for the big, high-powered Fords. He bought this 7-Litre pretty much as is. He's owned plenty of once-in-a-lifetime Galaxies, Customs, and XLs, and knows a good one from a great one. Though solid when Mike got it, it needed some freshening up. Mike rolled it in his shop and gave it all new exterior trim, interior, and an engine compartment detailing. The big Ford also got a set of Coy 18x9-inch C5 wheels.
The door tag decode shows it was built at Ford's Louisville plant August 23, 1965, making it a very early '66. Though it was a top-of-the-line 7-Litre with the 428 and four-speed, it had no power-sucking options—no power steering, brakes, windows, and no air conditioning.
When asked about how strong the Cammer runs compared to wedge 427s, he pauses, gets that look on his face, and shakes his head as he searches for the right superlatives. The power is up high in the rev band, above 5,000 rpm. On one hand, you respect the engine's rarity and want to go easy, but on the other hand, it was designed for severe use, and the real power lives up high in the powerband where most mortals fear to tread. The block is the standard side-oiler 427 with cross-bolted mains. It's virtually fail-proof. The heads are works of art, and flow like a river at high rpm. If you've got the guts to stay in the throttle, you'll be rewarded with a level of power unlike anything a normal wedge engine is capable of.
Had the 427 SOHC Cammer made production, there's no telling how the landscape may have changed. Maybe a whole new car would have been designed around the engine. Maybe there would have been no 428 Cobra Jet or Boss 429. Maybe the Cammer would have attracted enough interest to make the fullsize models Ford's premier powerhouse, instead of Mustang.
Who knows what may have happened? Speculation is easy. But had Ford's plans come to fruition, this is what the 427 SOHC option would have looked like—a spectacular way to go big.
