Reports: General to investigate Bergdahl's actions
A two-star general has been appointed to investigate Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl and reports that he walked away from his post in Afghanistan prior to his capture by Taliban-aligned insurgents, multiple media outlets were reporting Sunday.
CNN and NBC news were among outlets reporting the appointment, citing senior defense officials. Sources for both outlets, however, declined to name the general until the Pentagon formally announces the information.
CNN said the general could begin his work as soon as this week.
Bergdahl, 28, was freed May 31 after being held captive five years by the Taliban-aligned Haqqani network. He spent two weeks in a U.S. military hospital in Germany before returning to the U.S. early Friday. He is now continuing to undergo treatment at an Army medical facility in San Antonio.
Five Taliban leaders held at the Guantanamo Bay military prison were freed in the deal to release him, and the Obama administration has faced criticism for arranging the swap. Some fellow soldiers and others have described Bergdahl as a deserter who became disillusioned by the war and walked away from his post before his capture, adding to the controversy.
The Pentagon has repeatedly said that it will investigate the murky situation surrounding Bergdahl, but that the first priority is his health. Bergdahl wrote letters to his family while being held captive in which he urged that no one judge him too quickly for his disappearance before his capture, The Daily Beastreported Thursday.
"Leadership was lacking, if not non-existent" at the Afghanistan post where he was assigned, Bergdahl wote in a letter dated March 23, 2013. "The conditions were bad and looked to be getting worse for the men that where actuly (sic) the ones risking thier (sic) lives from attack."
He urged his family and the U.S. government to wait for all the evidence before judging him.
"The cercomstance (sic) showed signs of going from bad into a nightmare for the men in the field," he wrote. "Unexeptable (sic) conditions for the men working and risking life every moment outside the wire."
Bergdahl's behavior has not been the only point of contention. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, have argued that the men who were released are terrorists and a threat to Americans. They added that the deal could set a bad precedent and encourage enemies of the U.S. to kidnap Americans.
The Obama administration has dismissed the criticism, saying there was concern for Bergdahl's declining health. And POW swaps are standard practice as wars wind down, Obama has said.

Oil prices have plunged near a three-month low amid poor growth prospects, but U.S. drivers may be the biggest winners of the recent selloff.
Oil prices have plunged 3 percent to a three-month low today, falling below $86 a barrel to the lowest price since July 13.
RBOB gasoline futures have fallen to a four-month low, plunging 3 percent Tuesday and nearly 12 percent in the past two weeks. Meanwhile, the national average for retail gasoline is $3.65 a gallon, down 12 cents from a week ago.
Even California, which recorded the highest retail gas price on record two weeks ago, has seen pump prices fall nearly 27 cents since then to $4.40 a gallon today. Some areas in Ohio, Oklahoma and Missouri have gas prices under $3.25 a gallon.
Traders say the oil price slide is linked to the broad-based drop in equities, following poor earnings releases from industrial companies like DuPont and Caterpillar
U.S. oil prices have nearly the doubled the losses of Brent crude, in percentage terms, with Brent crude falling less than 2 percent to below $108 a barrel. Domestic production here in the U.S. stands at a 16-year high, while North Sea Brent crude production remains rather tight, though many refineries are coming out of maintenance season.

ILLINOIS -- I have never been ripped off like this before. The deal was pay for shipping for free trial. After 15 days, they will automatically sent next order out & bill my credit card. The problem is they billed my card 4 times in three days. Can't get any one to answer my email, or by phone, they did cancel my account by email. On the same day they also billed my credit card, total charges 175.87. Unhappy colon in Illinois.
I wanted to try the free trial for the teeth whitening gel. I paid for the s&h, $4.99 and was charged another $1.00 for something? I received it within a few weeks, I tried it and it didn't do what it was advertised to do so I called and e-mailed and canceled it right away.
I received an e-mail about a week later telling me I was being charged the 78.00 Plus s&h because I didn't cancel within the 14 day free trial offer. I know I did so I e-mailed them back with proof and explained I did cancel before the free trial offer expired. They weren't hearing it. After a dozen or more e-mails back and forth I finally sent them once more proof I canceled. I didn't hear from them for another week or so, finally they e-mailed me telling me they are giving me back all my money they charged me.
Don't give up trying to get your refund. Save all your e-mails from the company and yourself. No matter how much they try and get you confused hold your ground. I had to send my proof several times before they finally agreed I was right and they were wrong.
I went online and checked out any complaints this company had against them and was very surprised that this is how they did business. I was determined to get my money back. Too many companies do this to consumers and we don't follow through and hold them responsible for cheating us. The only way to get companies to change the way they treat us is to stand up and hold your ground. Now with all the online buying it's very easy for these companies to steal from us. Be very careful who you buy from. I read all the fine lines and made sure I canceled well before the time limit. I will check out any and all before I buy again.
Remember you can get your money back from this company, you have to show them that you're not messing around and can prove they made a mistake and you want them to correct it. Stand up to them and be firm.
MEDINA, OHIO -- I received my "free" bottle of Colon 700, I was told I could cancel within 15 days of my card being charged. I called on day 14, no answer so I e-mailed the company. They said their terms say 15 days after order, but the notice I got with the bottle said after billing. I told them that and they refused to give me my money back and charged my account $88.14.
I now have a bottle of stuff that made me sick when I took it, am stuck with the bottle and the website is always down so I don't know what the return policy is. I'm sure there isn't one. What a scam... biggest rip off I've ever come across personally. STAY AWAY from them!!! I tried again to get satisfaction from their website, and it is gone. Imagine that...
AUBURN, WASHINGTON -- I order this pill to try it because I have heard that it is a good product... so, I order to try. It has been 2 weeks since it never came in. So, I called the company back and spoke to a representative named **. He said that he will go ahead and resend me that product... so, I say "Okay thanks." He said "Don't worry it will be there in 3 days" because he was going to expedited my product and that I will have it... and it's still not here. I just want to say that if I can't have the product refund me my money back... PLEASE!!!
GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA -- Product doesn't work. Without even having had 3 weeks of being able to use the product, 2 new bottles were sent and charged to my credit card without my consent. Have e-Mailed their Support Line - won't answer phone # - says they are open until 4:00 pm PDT and it doesn't matter when I call, get that message requesting recall during normal working hours. They are evidently associated with Hoodia, which did the same scam on me last year and I finally filed charges with the Attorney General and the BBB. Finally got all my money refunded, but not without a long fight.
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CALIFORNIA -- I ordered a free trial of Colon 700 and received it during a period while I was sick. I didn't even open the mail container. Within approx. 3 weeks I received two more bottles and was billed $88.00 on my charge account. Beware, please read the terms in which you order your free sample. I contacted them immediately upon receiving two new bottles. I still have not opened the free trial bottle. They would not give me a refund and allow me to send back the latest two bottles. I really hate these type of practices!
CLEVELAND, OHIO -- I ordered the free trial bottle of colonex700 and paid the shipping charge only. Now after a few weeks they go and send me 2 more bottles and I haven't even opened the first bottle and I don't want anymore of the pills! I'm going to put them in the mail tomorrow marked refused! I'm sure they're charging my debit card for something that I don't want.

For the first time, health advocates have designated a specific month for national attention to pediatric obesity. September is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month, and as we near its end I'd like to share what a few nurse practitioner students have done to call attention to it.
Last weekend, three NP students from Samuel Merritt University in Oakland, Calif., treated 30 low-income adolescents from San Francisco to a day of nutritious food and fun physical activity. They took the teens to Sur La Table in downtown San Francisco and shared a meal that featured age-appropriate nutrition information. Then the NP students took the children to a park, Yerba Buena Gardens, for some outdoor games and activities.
"This project allows us to work with teens on how to care for themselves," said Kacee Williams, one of the NP students, in a news release from the university. "In the process, I'm learning a lot about how nurse practitioners can communicate with young patients in an effective manner."
Effective communication is one of the keys to ending pediatric obesity. Children and their parents require a much better understanding of healthy diet and lifestyle practices. The National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners has been a driving force in this cause for years, primarily through its HEAT program, an acronym for Healthy Eating and Activity Together.

Downtown Carlisle retailers experience success despite hurdles
You do pretty much everything as a small-business owner, and sometimes you find out even the things you thought should be easiest don't go as planned.
That's been the last two and a half months for Stephanie Patterson Gilbert, the owner of Georgie Lou's Retro Candy & Gifts, as she endeavored to move her store from North Pitt Street to the busy corner of Pitt and High streets in Carlisle. After a more than two-month delay, Gilbert finally opened Georgie Lou's at 56 W. High St. on Dec. 12.
It's a bigger, high-visibility location that was designed for retail, she said. But that doesn't mean it was easy movin' up.
"Everything that could go wrong did go wrong," Gilbert said recently, as she waited on the constant stream of customers browsing her store, buying candies or selecting designer chocolates from the display case.
The furniture that she ordered for customers to sit on was late. When the pieces did arrive, they were the wrong ones.
The walls and shelves had to be painted twice because of mistakes.
A soda cooler arrived late, then wouldn't fit in the door.
A water leak caused damage to the new laminate flooring.
"I thought we were going to miss the Christmas season," Gilbert said, "and that's a big time for us."
Gilbert wanted to open Georgie Lou's by early October, but that didn't happen. Devoted patrons kept her spirits up while they worked through the problems, she said.
"I've got great Facebook fans," Gilbert said. "They love the store history and have been so supportive."
The wait was worth it, she said. The new shop, about 1,400 square feet, is nearly twice the size of her old store, meaning more room for inventory. And the visibility on Carlisle's main drag has paid off with a flood of patrons to make the first week in the new location a success, Gilbert said.
The building is owned by the Tuckey family, who also own Middlesex Township-based contractors The Tuckey Cos. Gilbert said the Tuckeys have gone out of their way to help ready the space for Georgie Lou's opening, including doing a lot of the building renovation work at minimum expense.
That meant Gilbert could spend more of her budget stocking and decorating the store.
"There are more of those landlords, who now understand that if they invest, they'll help their (tenant) businesses," she said.
South Side Deli also moved into a larger space at 46 W. High St. this year, and owner Billy Barnett said business has been good at the new location. It also is owned by the Tuckeys.
Barnett said working with them has helped get the business off the ground because they're very responsive to the tenant's needs.
"We definitely don't regret the move," Barnett said.
Matt Tuckey, the business development director at Tuckey Cos., said they want tenants that can grow Carlisle's downtown. And when they find those businesses, it's worth working together.
"We want to work collaboratively with tenants to develop a long-term relationship where they are helping us to sustain the success and viability of the property," Tuckey said in an email, "and where we can help them as a catalyst for the continued growth and success of their business."
The growing businesses and responsive landlords that Carlisle has experienced during the last couple years are immensely beneficial to the downtown district, said Glenn White, executive director of the Downtown Carlisle Association.
"I'm seeing a young generation of property owners renovating and understanding the renaissance of downtown," White said.
DCA has helped eight businesses with new signs through its sign grant program, he said. The program contributes half of the price of a new external sign, up to $300. The association also worked with the companies that make the signs for businesses to ensure they meet the expectations of Carlisle's Historic Area Review Board.
DCA provided a sign grant to South Side Deli, but not Georgie Lou's, White said.
It's good to see businesses that have moved having success in their new locations, he said. Between them and the landlords, there's a renewed civic pride in Carlisle. DCA wants to help expand that, he said.
"There are people willing to put time into this town," White said, "and invest because they believe."

By Markus Lenhard
After reading the [TAM Blog] post about health issues by Marcus Kuhn, I was inspired to share my own ramblings and experiences with you. Over the years I had countless tension migraines from working in sub-optimal lighting conditions, lower and upper back pain. Lumbago, cramps in the Shoulder, neck and head muscles resulting in different flavors of terrible multi day headaches. Tendonitis of the wrist, tendonitis of both elbows, cramps in the calf, tingly fingers and ass-cheeks to a total loss of feeling in some parts of my right thigh… I am out of permanent trouble for more than a year now. I still sometimes have a bit of a backache or long for a massage but then I am doing horrible long sessions on people who are traveling from far and sit on the computer a lot…
My tattoo sessions can span from 6-12 hours a day sometimes so I simply had to find solutions that enable me to do this for a couple more years. I have been to acupuncturists, GP's and Physio and massage therapists and none of those really know much about the working habits and horrible shit that tattooers do to themselves on a daily basis, so I had to read a little and listen a lot and then start trying things on my own, using my body as a gauge for success or failure.
Here is what I found so far: I am going to start with seating posture… I am hearing from a lot of people that they are advised to assume a straighter position by having a higher chair to straighten the legs and thus the lower back muscles.This makes perfect sense for desk work but none whatsoever for what we do. We tend to get very close to our subject to see better. So we are always arching our back. If the legs are bent in a 90-degree angle (as often advised) the lower back will be under copious amounts of stress when doing this.
It comes down to this, if you sit a certain way below your waist, you need to sit accordingly above your waist, otherwise you will be in pain. Since we are not that far away from our subjects, unless we get magnifying glasses for a thousand bucks and look like we are trying to be cast for the next big torture porn movie, we should try to assume a position that makes overall sense to what we actually do.
Our focus of attention is not always right there in front of us but sometimes in weird, hard to reach angles. Sometimes we have a glare on the skin that makes it hard to see so we are using a sub-optimal viewing angle… All of this is paid with a general uncomfy feeling which will lead to cramps and pain and often, long-term injury.
I have been to all of these places and tried multiple chairs from a very expensive high multi-adjustable saddle chair with coasters to a simple desk chair to just small fixed stools and fixed adjustable bouncy things or those funny rubber ball monstrosities. Also, I did a lot of thinking, tweaking my surroundings and streamlining my work habits…
It all comes down to this:
1. Before investing in an expensive chair, make sure you have a light source that is easily adjustable and/or gives you lots of light from multiple angles to prevent glare and relaxes your eyes and forehead from squinting or other tense grimacing that will result in headaches and worse once you're older.
I built my own version of IKEA LED reading lights, a Tripod for heavy equipment and some flexible arms for photo studio-lighting and it looks like something out of "Logan's Run." It works beautifully and can be packed into a small package for travel. But there are also lots of other suited lamps out there which will do the trick and have the right light-color AND are easy to wrap, which we shouldn't ever forget to look for in a lamp that is adjustable and thus needs to be touched!
2. Get a step or low stool or anything that elevates your feet. This will give you the means to rest your elbows on your knees which takes a lot of strain of your neck and shoulders and your whole upper back will feel good even after hours of work.
You basically sit like a coachman on an old carriage. That way you can lean forward without exerting strain on your back all the time. I started working a lot lower and having my subject almost at eye level so I don't arch my back too much. But I ended up having to bring my arms up for too long and that gave me tension migraines at the end of the day. Resting your elbows is a way better way to do this.
It will also prevent tendonitis in your elbow on your stretching hand or your wrist in your machine hand because you are not tensing up so much.
3. Turn your footswitch into an on/off switch so you can take your foot of it. it will even out the weight you put on your seat bones and straighten out the whole treacherous, mal-designed column of bones that makes us all so miserable. This is where a lot of error actually starts.
People who carry a wallet in their back pocket while sitting down all the time should also adjust. I have moved my on/off switch to the top of my work surface and just press it with my machine hand. Once you are used to it you will never go back to footswitch. Plus you eliminate one cable from the bunch which is always great.
4. After all of this you can look into getting a good chair. there are no rules to this. I found that a chair without coasters makes more sense to me. Having your feet up and putting weight on your knees will make your chair want to roll back and that will mean you will need to tense up muscles in order to keep you where you are. So I got a chair that can turn and wobble but stands on a bouncy rubber donut so my ass can move around and my posture isn't frozen in one position for hours. There are cheap and very expensive solutions for this. I have sat on those expensive spring things that are fixed once you sit but will coast when you lift your weight slightly.
And they are awesome. Since I have spent a metric ass-load of money on chairs though, and I have a cheap wobbly chair that works for me and is low enough, I will wait with this until I find a cheap one on eBay or one of my colleagues finds that it isn't for him and sells his to me for tattoo work or something. If you find a chair that doesn't coast and is height adjustable just remember, if you need to touch the chair to move it you will to be able to wrap up a spot to grab it with gloves (you are bound to forget or get annoyed with taking the gloves off every time). Consider that when buying a chair.
5. Get rid of your fixed table and get a workstation on wheels that is in the right height for you to work off of. It should be heavy, easy to set up and clean and contain everything you need so you don't need to worry about it.
In the end it's all about working in a relaxed manner and being able to adjust your work environment to every spot on the human body you need to work on. Sometimes you just need your shit on the left side or across an arm or to the right to be able to stay seated in good position and not make impossible contortions in order to dip into your cup just to fold your swiss army body back into working that tiny spot south of the armpit on that 300 lbs guy that just isn't really trying to help you.
Sometimes, taking those extra five minutes to take of the glove, putting the lamp where is needed, getting another armrest out and wrap it up, move the workstation to the other side and turning the client around is all the patience that is needed to not feel like a 90-year-old coal miner the next day.
6. I mentioned it in the last point… Arm rests. Have enough and have good ones. You can also use one for resting YOUR arm when working in a shitty spot like a stomach or chest where you can't really rest your elbows on your knees.
Get one that is really adjustable and sturdy, or have one made for you. even for the client is sometimes just nice to have two armrests for the upper and lower arm when working on the inside or bicep. Remember you need to always work in the best, most comfortable position for both involved parties. a stressed out, uncomfortable customer is a pain in the ass and will make you tense.
7. Last but not least: Wrap up everything as good as you can. Being relaxed also means to be able to focus on a the most important task. the tattoo.
If you have to divert your attention to what you can and can't touch you are making it harder on yourself than necessary. spending more time on setting up your station before you start will result in a lot less time spent in a horribly inadvisable spinal contortion, too. All this is about your workstation and surroundings, here is some stuff that involves you directly:
- Doing stretches is really good to prevent and also to heal tendonitis. Once you have it, you will have to take ibuprofen to subdue the inflammation and gently stretch the muscles surrounding the stressed tendon. There are different stretches for the stretch and for the machine hand. We tend to use the muscles in our palm and inside of the lower arm of the machine side more than the outside.
It's the other way around with the stretch side. So those muscles are thickening and shortening over time. Limiting the range of motion and tightening the spaces in which nerves, blood vessels and ligaments are situated. This results in ligaments rubbing against muscle to a point where they are becoming inflamed or nerves to be squeezed by a swollen ligament or muscle to a point where our fingers begin to tingle or other even worse signs of shit hitting the fan.
By stretching those muscles you can prevent almost all of the above. So don't forget that. it's important and will actually really help keeping those money makers in good working order. I have tried acupuncture in the past when my tendonitis was the worst and I did have a feeling that it worked. But I also at the same time I took ibuprofen and did my stretches… back than I might have given the most exotic sounding treatment the most credit… who knows.
Right now taking anti-inflammatory drugs and doing the stretches still keeps me in the green. Even after I forget doing them for a year or so and feel a tendon starting to act up I can get it back in check with these techniques within a week or two…
- And of course it has to come to this but is just as true as all the above: Eat less, move more. Muscle is better than fat for stabilizing that back. There that's enough I said it… like others before me a thousand times… without being patronizing or anything but you also will be all around better adjusted if you do some minor work out and eat more healthy. Which simply means, more protein, less fat and sugar.
All around try to use all the calories you gobble up over the day and you are a champ! How you achieve that is totally up to you. I don't believe in diets and I hate the term healthy for food. it is just so full of misconceptions and myths I wouldn't even know where to start. So don't listen to anybody trying to sell you something or who doesn't seem like (s)he found something that works and might also work for you. Know thyself…I know how hard this is to achieve for many of us. I have to force myself through this after each time I lost interest in my body and had to pay the bill a year or so later.

Private place for wife to learn (near Fresno)
Ladies (and Gentlemen), I am looking for a private place to take my wife shooting (and hold a firearm) for the first time, the only stipulation (per her) is that it must be somewhere where there is no other gun "within a 100 miles" not literally reasonable, but I get her point).
A little background on her personality: she is a very girly girl who was raised with the basic idea that guns are bad and will kill you if you are near them, imagine a healthy respect for the "gun always loaded" idea taken to an unhealthy extreme. She firmly believes that only active/on-duty military or police officers should carry a firearm. It took 9 years of gentle conversation before ONE gun was allowed in our home, another year to make that a reality (after a direct threat to our family in our home). Reluctantly she has agreed to hold it in a private setting (hence the above). Which, of course, absolutely CANNOT take place in our home.
I am looking for another woman with a similar starting point to offer some input (or husband in a similar starting position) and the location where this could all take place near Fresno.
Thanks in advance.
have you checked with this group? http://pistolrange.com/classes/
i think you are correct to seek training for her outside the home and by someone other than yourself. best would be a woman instructor and/or a woman only class.
there was a women's group in the southern valley/hills but i don't remember their name......
and i'm betting this place could steer you in the right direction: http://lrstones.com/
"The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her own pantyhose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound."-- as seen on a t-shirt
I started with a handgun safety class, just to see if I could pick a pistol up. Previous to that, I believed it would be like picking a rattlesnake up. Picked it up, shot it later at a private range, instant addict.
A handgun safety class followed by range time is ideal. An all-women class is better. Much less threatening to a beginner, really.
NRA runs all-women classes, Women On Target, http://women.nra.org/womens-instruct...g-clinics.aspx. Local ranges run classes all the time, many of which are women-only. Clearly there's a market for women to learn to shoot without a bunch of guys around.
There's probably some BLM or National Forest somewhere within a couple hours of you. But I still thinka class with range time is best. Much more confidence-building. But don't be too disappointed if she finds she can do it, but doesn't want to. Unlikely, but possible.
Out of curiosity, why is it important to her that there be no other guns around her? Is she afraid of other shooters hitting her? The noise? Possibility of embarrassment? Just wondering because I haven't heard that requirement before.
Do only safe sex. Never have sex with someone crazier than you are.
Don't marry or move in together before you're both at least 25.
Don't have children until you're married five years or at least age 30.
Put 10% of your salary into savings every month no matter how broke you are.
Don't ever screw around with the IRS.
Keep a handgun on your bedside table.
Don't smart-mouth judges, or cops who stop you on the road.

Hey Jasen, It's Reggie. If you want a structured environment, the Lemoore sportsman club is a good place. It's outdoors, during the week it is usually empty, its a private club, and it's a good range and a good price. If you're looking at some BLM land, it's a bit further drive and you'll have to bring your own stuff. If you register, my wife and I can meet you guys down there and I help her get comfortable with the guns. FB me if you need more info.
Hey everyone thanks for the input/ideas. I think we'll start with a private class and work from there, definite process here.
@BonnieB - She hyperventilates and panics. She literally wouldn't go into the room where the safe is for a week. It's worse than needle for her; she has actually passed out on me twice before for lab tests.
Reggie, I'll check into Lemoore.

Director Sam Garbarski marked his feature film directorial debut in 2003 with the family-comedy drama Le Tango des Rashevski (The Rashevski Tango), a tale of one extended family's struggle to find meaning and identity within their own somewhat dormant Jewish heritage. When 81-year-old family matriarch Rosa Rashevski passes away, her descendants are left unprepared, as they have no idea what traditional Jewish rites they should be practicing. As a result, various Rashevski begin some rather intense periods of spiritual introspection, ranging from Rosa's granddaughter Nina's (Tania Gabarski, daughter of the director) proclamation to start and raise a Jewish family to grandson -- and former Israeli military man -- Rica's (Rudi Rosenberg) turbulent relationship with his Muslim girlfriend, Khadija (Selma Kouchy). To further complicate matters, a non-Jewish family friend named Antoine (Hippolyte Girardot) shows up at the funeral and strikes up a conversation with Nina, whom he used to baby-sit when they were both younger. As he grows more fond of the young woman and becomes intent on making her his wife, he learns of her intentions to have a Jewish family and tries to find a solution that would make the young woman reconsider him as a suitor. ~ Ryan Shriver, Rovi

In anticipation of our move to a new house, my husband blurted out something quite shocking.
"I think we should just drop cable."
Well, since I assumed cable television was necessary for his sports-watching hobby, and he assumed that I was beholden to "The Real Housewives" series, we had dutifully paid hundreds of dollars a month for something neither one of us really cared about.
(There's a lesson about marital communication in there, somewhere).
So we moved and left cable television behind.
Oh, sure, our neighbors and friends are a bit confused. We have received more than a few blank stares at the mention of an antenna. And, to be...

colors, hot rod power and a lot of bling ... sounds about right for a
mid-life crisis. But there's more to Project MLC than that.
Polaris introduced its 2011 Pro RMK, we thought the peak of mountain
snowmobile performance had been reached.
you can always count on the aftermarket to improve anything.
with a first-year model is also tricky when you're building a custom
machine. Aftermarket companies can't build parts until they have a
machine that they can tear apart and that usually means late fall.
That was the case as we set out to build Project MLC. In fact, our
Polaris Pro RMK 155 was the sled that Boondocker used to develop its
first Pro turbo kit. Pretty impressive when you consider too that
Boondocker techs Jared Sessions and Tony Jenkins installed the kit
for the first time during the Intermountain Snowmobile Show and did
it in two hours. And if you think that it was a quick install that
skipped a few steps, Project MLC left the show and went straight to
Wyoming for an early season ride.
before we made it that far, we had to get physical. That means the
day after we picked up our 2011 Pro RMK from Rexburg Motor Sports, we
started tearing it apart. Many people have commented about the irony
of how some service tech at the dealership busted his butt to get the
sled assembled and set up just in time for us to pick it up and undo
everything he did.
we replaced the red side panels with black ones from Polaris and we
left the foam lining off of the black panels to shed a few ounces. We
removed the hood and pulled the foam off it as well. All that foam
added up to a 2-lb. savings.
we removed the headlight and put it in a box-another 3.25 lbs
saved. We peeled the stock graphics off of any remaining places and
removed the running board edge rails, bumpers, hood vents, handlebar
clamp and spindles so they could be powdercoated in various Starburst
colors. Once we got the colored parts back from Ace Powder Coating in
Idaho Falls, ID, we reassembled the sled to "stock"
condition and loaded it into the trailer for the Intermountain
Snowmobile Show.
Snowmobile Show Build
the show in Salt Lake City, UT, Jeff Hawksworth from Skinz Protective
Gear installed SPG front and rear bumpers and Airframe seat. The
front bumper provides a very sturdy protection element and strong
grab point for pulling on a stuck sled. The SPG rear bumper adds some
weight compared to the stock carbon fiber tube bumper, but durability
is critical in a rear bumper-especially the way we ride these sleds
in the trees. The Airframe seat gives us a very
mountain-riding-friendly feel with a very trick look and added
storage with the SPG bag.
mentioned, the Boondocker crew installed the pump gas turbo kit
(including clutch components, Control Box and Electronic Boost
Controller or EBC). One thing that was new for 2011 is how Boondocker
pre-assembles the turbo kits at the factory so your installation job
is simplified. That was one of the reasons we wanted to see if the
turbo kit could be installed in a two-hour time frame. Typically,
turbo kits could take anywhere from eight hours to a couple of days
to install. But having them pre-assembled with clear instructions and
capable technical support readily available by phone has cut a lot of
labor time out of the process.
keys to Boondocker's turbo kits being so successful are the timing
key, exclusive TPS-Smart Electronic Boost Controller, Control Box
with 3D tuning, a deep-snow tunnel exhaust outlet design, new Torque
Building Air Box, No-Spill oil tank, intercoolers and cold air
3D tuning builds a three-dimensional fuel map based on boost, engine
rpm and throttle position (rather than a two-dimensional map based on
just two data inputs). The 3D tuning and timing key is what makes the
turbo run clean and crisp like a stock engine prior to boost and
seamlessly roll into boost power without a hiccup, lean spot or
the Intermountain Snowmobile Show, we also had one side of our
ArcticFX custom-colored "Broken Arrow" wrap installed by
Dan Adams, an ArcticFX-sponsored Pro rider who has installed more
than his fair share of wrap kits over the years.
Line Products' Dustin Pancheri installed a set of white Powder Pro
skis on Project MLC. Initially, we weren't sure if we'd stick with
the Powder Pros once we hit the snow. It all depended on how the new
chassis handled. But we can tell you that we never pulled them off.
They are absolutely outstanding for the Pro RMK chassis. Pancheri
also helped install a set of Stomp Grip pads to the tunnel sides,
which are an adhesive-backed pad that has knobs on it that you can
use to grip the sled with the inside of your boots. SLP carries Stomp
Grips and Stomp Grip seat covers.
Snowmobile Show Build
few weeks later, and with three more good October/November mountain
rides on Project MLC, we loaded up and went to the Idaho Snowmobile
Show in Boise, ID, for another round of installs.
Durbin, Lance Robinson and Larry Chess of RSI Racing installed a set
of 5-inch rise handlebars and gel-wrap grips with RSI grip heaters.
We cut about half an inch off each end of the bars to narrow up the
controls a bit. The gel-wrap grips provide great grip and comfort
while absorbing vibrations.
Racing Products provided a set of lightweight A-arms for Project MLC
and Carl's Cycle service technicians Bill and Kevin came over to the
show to install them for us. The upper A-arm on the Polaris uses a
threaded ball joint to adjust the spindle's camber. Carl's Cycle
recommends having any installation or adjustment done by someone who
knows how to properly set up the camber angle or the sled's handling
will go out the window.
Racing Shox sent a set of Float EVOL air shocks for the front end of
Project MLC and the Carl's Cycle techs installed those along with the
Holz arms. The Fox Float EVOLs are the best of both worlds of air
shocks: they are lightweight and benefit from the external "Extra
VOLume" chamber to maintain the shock's performance under
grueling conditions. We also installed a set of Fox Shox on the stock
rear suspension initially to test and ride quality was superb. We
found a comfortable setting with 65 psi in the main chamber of the
ski shocks and 160 psi in the EVOL chamber. We ran 110 psi in the
main chamber of the rear track shock with 200 psi in its EVOL
chamber. That gave us a plush ride at speed down a rough, shelled out
trail and performed very well off-trail in deep fluff and steep
MLC needed the ArcticFX graphics installed on the other side at Boise
and Dan Adams' wife, Irina, took care of that task.
again, Project MLC left the show in a trailer headed for big
mountains and deep snow. This time, Boondocker took it to Colorado
for some November riding and more testing.
the season progressed, we added more parts. We took the sled over to
Jackson, WY, where we installed a Gizmo cooling system enhancement
kit from Redneck Racing. The Gizmo serves as a bypass valve that
keeps cooled-off coolant in the tunnel heat exchangers from
circulating through a still-hot engine after the sled has sat for a
few minutes. The Gizmo circulates the coolant that is in the front or
engine portion of the cooling system and slowly bleeds in cold
coolant from the tunnel as the engine temp steadies out. The Gizmo
comes into play when the sled is first started in the morning, too,
shortening the cooling circuit the same way, which allows the engine
to reach operating temperature more quickly. That is key to
preventing piston scuffing and engine damage or failure. We were very
pleased with how the sled's cooling system operated with the Gizmo
late addition to Project MLC was a full Mtn. Tamer rear suspension
from Timbersled Products, complete with black IceAge slide rails and
Fox Float shocks.
Allen Mangum travelled to our backyard to install the skid in Project
MLC and stuck around for a couple of days to ride the sled and make
any ride quality adjustments. The Mtn. Tamer rear suspension is light
(lighter than the stock rail by a couple of pounds) and gives the
rider a wide range of adjustment in ride quality and weight transfer
control. The Mtn. Tamer features a sealed, greasable slide mechanism
on the rear arm with a knob for coupling control with infinite
adjustment capability. The Mtn. Tamer is a tried and proven piece of
dedicated mountain hardware.
a few months of riding, we had a sag in the running boards. We
installed a set of Better Boards running board inserts and Lincoln
County Customs helped us install a set of custom-made tunnel
MLC Wrap-Up
did all of these modifications and bolt-on products leave us with a
better sled than we started with?
Our riding preferences lead us into trees, ugly canyons and long
sidehills. The added power from the Boondocker turbo means you can go
more places, go deeper into the canyon, go farther on the sidehill
and get out of trouble spots like you could not do on a stocker.
improvements to the chassis, controls and seat made Project MLC very
user-friendly for aggressive backcountry riding. Nothing is in the
way, the bars are just the right height and the sled is easy to
manipulate in sticky situations.
the suspension upgrades made it a machine that you could hammer
through the war zone leading up the mountain and still be completely
functional once you're off making your own tracks. We could control
weight transfer, nose weight, coupling, rebound and compression
damping and could make any changes we needed to the sled's overall
ride quality.
power to handling and everything in between, Project MLC is the
prefect combination of components and a core platform for the
mountain rider who's going through a mid-life crisis of his own.

Coming off a disheartening loss to Real Salt Lake, the Revs showed the league they're not to be ignored with a comprehensive win over the league-leading Galaxy
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Mired in a three-game losing streak and struggling to score goals – not to mention still smarting from last weekend's 5-0 loss to Real Salt Lake – the New England Revolution knew it had a rare chance to make a statement on Saturday night when the league-leading LA Galaxy visited Gillette Stadium.
It's safe to say the Revs made that statement loud and clear, delivering a 2-0 win over the seemingly untouchable Galaxy to leap from the foot of the table into fifth place in the Eastern Conference. Not only was it just Los Angeles' second loss of the season, but the recently goal-shy Revolution became the first team to score two goals against the resolute Galaxy backline this season. In fact, LA's defense had conceded just five goals in 15 games prior and had recorded a league-best 10 shutouts.
The victory was critical as the Revs reached the midway point of the schedule trying to fight their way back into the playoff race, but the importance of the three points may be surpassed by the effect the victory could have on the club moving forward.
"It's huge," said head coach Steve Nicol when asked what the win meant with regards to momentum. "We've had a bad run, no question about it, but they came out and fought as hard as they could. I think in the end we deserved to win the game."
New England was on the front foot from the opening whistle and looked to attack a Galaxy side missing two of its most influential players in U.S. National Team star Landon Donovan and standout defender Omar Gonzalez. Donovan remained on the West Coast to rest following his participation in the World Cup, while Gonzalez was suspended for yellow-card accumulation.
Although the Revs controlled the tempo in the opening 45 minutes and limited MLS leading scorer Edson Buddle (10 goals) to long-range shots, they failed to generate many quality scoring chances of their own and went into the half locked in a scoreless draw.
That quickly changed in the second half, as the Revolution's grit and determination was finally coupled with the killer instinct.
"I think we picked up more second balls in the second half than the first," said Nicol. "Shalrie (Joseph) was one of the first to the balls and was challenging them. We just didn't read the second ball well enough in the first half. I think we did that better in the second half, and that made a difference."
The Revolution reaped the rewards of its endeavor in the 67th minute, when Marko Perovic scored what proved to be the game-winning goal by blasting a 20-yard free kick low inside the left post. There was a bit of good fortune about the goal, as Perovic's original free kick from 30 yards struck the wall only for referee Paul Ward to spot a handball by Galaxy defender Leonardo and award another free kick 10 yards closer. Perovic made no mistake with his second attempt, curling the ball around the wall for his third goal of the season and his second direct from a free kick.
Scoring the first goal was critical for the Revs, who have become accustomed to falling behind early and chasing games from the opening stages. With a second-half lead, New England was able to tighten up defensively and expose the Galaxy as the visitors pushed numbers forward in search of an equalizer.
"It's always good to score first rather than concede a goal and try to come from behind," said Sainey Nyassi, who put in a Man of the Match type showing with a consistently dangerous performance down the right wing. "It helps so we can hold the ball and play as a team and do whatever we want with the ball. We don't have to force anything."
With the freedom to play as they pleased, the Revs opened up the Galaxy defense once again in the 74th minute, and it was Nyassi who was rewarded for his efforts with his second goal of the season. A long-distance shot from Joseph deflected off Nyassi as he crossed the top of the box, and LA goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts could only recover enough to push the ball off the left post. With the goal gaping, Nyassi blasted the ball into the net from one yard out.
"I was in the right place at the right time," said Nyassi of the insurance tally.
Of course, scoring twice against the league's top defense was a massive relief for the Revs, but the effort on the defensive side of the ball against MLS' second-ranked attack was just as important. Goalkeeper Matt Reis made five saves to earn his first shutout since returning from offseason shoulder and knee surgeries, while central defender Darrius Barnes returned from injury to put in a solid shift in his first appearance since May 8.
Barnes claimed it was the backline's ability to say goal-side on the Galaxy's forwards which contributed to the clean sheet.
"I feel like the whole back four did a good job of keeping their attack in front of us," he said. "That was our goal coming into the game and we weren't looking to fall behind. We wanted to keep the ball in the midfield and not let them get too many chances."
As emotional as the victory was for the Revs, they're well aware that Saturday night's result was just the first step in turning their season around and making a serious playoff push.
"The three points definitely helped out a lot and it's a confidence builder," said Barnes. "But we can't be happy with just four wins and we need to keep doing what we did tonight. We have SuperLiga next week, which will help us get some momentum moving forward into the rest of league play. We can't be satisfied with this and we can definitely play better. We're going to keep going up from here."
