COLORADO vs. GALAXY
Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Friday, StubHub Center
TV/radio: NBCSN/KWKW 1330
Update: If the second-place Galaxy (13-5-7) are to increase their win streak to five games, they'll have to do it without starting goalkeeper Jaime Penedo, who is on leave to play for his native Panama, as well as forward Robbie Keane (Ireland). Either Brian Rowe (no MLS appearances this season) or Brian Perk (two starts, one goal allowed) will be in goal. … Alan Gordon started alongside Gyasi Zardes at forward on Sunday against Chivas. Zardes scored twice and Gordon has two goals since rejoining the Galaxy last month. … Midfielder Stefan Ishizaki, who has missed the last three games with a sore toe, could be in the mix. … Midfielder Landon Donovan, who will join the U.S. national team in October, is making a dash at the MLS all-time assist record. He's now seven away from Steve Ralston's record of 135. … Colorado (8-12-6) enters the weekend four points out of the final playoff spot in the Western Conference.

DENVER—Cinemark USA is asking a judge to dismiss lawsuits alleging the company failed to protect its customers from the July shootings at a Colorado movie theater that killed 12 and injured 70.
The Denver Post reports Cinemark filed a motion in federal court Monday arguing the lawsuits don't show the company is liable under the Colorado Premises Liability Act.
Last month, a magistrate recommended that a federal judge dismiss the lawsuits' claims of negligence and wrongful death against Cinemark. However, the magistrate said the claims that Cinemark violated the state Premises Liability Act could go forward.
That law covers slip-and-fall lawsuits, among other things.
James Holmes is charged with multiple counts of murder and attempted murder in the theater shootings. He is scheduled to enter a plea in March.

Lady Gaga Dyes Hair Dark, Goes Makeup-Free [Photo]
From naked as the day she was born to naked in a totally different way! Lady Gaga followed up yesterday's nude photo from V with a picture of her (newly) dark hair and naked, makeup-free face.
Mama Monster shared a new photo without one drop of makeup on her face. Her porcelain, pale skin was a gorgeous contrast to the rich, dark brown hue of her hair. She may not have had any makeup on, but she was hardly a Plain Jane.
Gaga also posted a caption – it seems that 'ARTPOP' is about to begin its promo cycle with a single, and she is having a little trouble letting go.
ARTPOP as they pry the single from my bleeding fingers. its a scary thing to revisit those things underneath, the pain in your past. but all I found was raw passion. I thought I was destroyed inside. im just ready to fight. start the music.

The University of Iowa will launch a new Office of Teaching, Learning and Technology for the fall 2015 semester in an effort to better meet the needs of faculty, instructors and teaching assistants.
The office will bring together U Iowa's Center for Teaching, ITS Instructional Services the Evaluation and Examination Service in one office. The move was sponsored by Chief Information Officer Steve Fleagle and Associate Provost Beth Ingram. The office will be headed by Maggie Jesse, senior director of IT Services.
The new office will work to enhance teaching and learning environments at the university and to facilitate data-driven improvements through assessment support and evaluation of new initiatives.
A committee of faculty and staff will offer advice on the transition of the three support units in an effort to "ensure positive impact across campus," according to a news release.
"This reorganization is part of our strategy to support, develop and encourage faculty and TA professional teaching and learning strategies, including active-learning pedagogies, and to leverage and expand our position as a national leader in active-learning," according to information released by the university. "The question, 'What academic learning experience do you want your students to have?' will be at the heart of the new office's efforts; that question spans pedagogy, faculty and TA professional development, facilities and technology."

Saoirse in green and as Katniss?
Acclaimed young actress Saoirse Ronan attended the Irish premiere of Shrek yesterday in a pair of steezy pink chucks with a blazer, topped off with light green Ray-Bans which obviously I love because I have them too. (Photo attached from Barbados)
Saoirse, now 16, is always at the top of the list for discussion on who should play Katniss Everdeen in Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games film adaptation. I don't give The Hunger Games enough love, and I am sorry for this. It's because I'm waiting for the series to be complete with the release of the third book Mockingjay in August. Since Collins is writing the screenplay, am not as worried as I am about Katniss getting f-cked up the way Hollywood could f-ck with Lisbeth Salander but still...
The selection is important. And much as I love Saoirse, whoever is Katniss needs to be a bold virginal declaration, someone fresh to play a character so fresh and forceful and utterly unforgettable.
Remember when you first met Emma Watson as Hermione? And you were like – oh Hiiiiiii Hermione! There you are Hermione!
This is what I hope for when we meet Katniss too. Because if she's right, if she's pitch tone perfect, wouldn't that be an experience in itself, before the movie even begins?

Masha Arms captured a family moment when Robert Frost (1874-1963) and his granddaughters, Elinor and Lee, strolled down the sidewalk. In this scene America's poet laureate appears accessible and familiar. Robert Frost, Elinor Wilber Frost, and Lesley Lee Francis are seen opposite the King-Smith Studio School in Washington, DC. Originally from Fitchburg, Massachusetts, Masha Arms arrived in Washington, DC, during the Great Depression. After buying a Model G Leica camera in 1934 and teaching herself about the technical aspects of photography, she landed a job teaching photography at the King-Smith Studio School in 1936. Masha Arms' work was published in a 1936 Washington Post review of the Junior League Gallery exhibition alongside photographs by Ansel Adams and Margaret Bourke-White. In 1941, when the United States entered World War II, Masha left Washington, married William Tyler Arms of Deerfield, Massachusetts, and moved back to New England.

Caroling world record is charity fundraiser's aim
It's not on anybody's holiday play list yet, but a growing group of Christmas carolers in a few weeks could be singing "Joy to the World Record."
A Westport church is organizing what it hopes will be the world's largest-ever group of door-to-door Christmas carolers on Wednesday evening, Dec. 12. And it is putting out the call to any groups or individuals who like to sing.
The goal it is make the Guinness Book of World records and at the same time raise money for underfunded school art programs.
The Unitarian Church in Westport said it wants to enlist at least 250 people to sing carols at homes along a half-time route near Compo Beach in an event it is calling One Voice.
The cost to participate is $10 for adults and $5 for children 6 to 12. Proceeds will benefit the Lily Sarah Grace Fund, named in memory of three young Stamford girls who died in a Christmas Day house fire last year -- Lily, Sarah and Grace Badger.
The fund was established by the girls' father, Matthew Badger, and dispenses money to underfunded elementary-school arts programs nationwide.
Participants must register online by Dec. 10.
"Everyone who likes to sing is welcome, but school music programs, church choirs and area glee clubs are especially encouraged to join us," Erik Paul, the event's carol leader said in a news release.
Jim Keenan, the event director, said there is no existing Guinness record for door-to-door caroling. But for any group that wants to try, Guinness set minimum standards of 250 carolers visiting a minimum of 10 houses on at least four streets.
Keenan in an email said One Voice's route exceeds the house and street minimums. As for 250 carolers, he said, "from initial sign-ups, we'll surpass that mark easily."
Organizers checked with homeowners along the route, so those to be serenaded will be expecting the visit. "All the homes that agreed to be sung to are very excited," Keenan said. "They really need some holiday cheer after dealing with Sandy."
Carols selected for One Night include standards such as "Jingle Bells," "Deck the Halls," "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," according to Paul, who is who is Weston High School's music director.
The date of the event -- 12-12-12 -- was chosen because those digits match up only once a century, according to the release.
Organizers said they already have enlisted donations from corporate sponsors to cover the costs of conducting the event, which include $7,500 to have a Guinness representative come to Westport to witness and verify the event.
Money for the charity will come from carolers' participation fees.
One Voice sponsors include Fiat of Fairfield County, MasterCard and Stop & Shop Supermarket Co.
Radio station WEZN-FM 99.9 will do a live remote broadcast at the event, organizers said.

On Wednesday, 49ers quarterback Alex Smith was cleared to practice after suffering a concussion against the Rams on Sunday. On Thursday, Smith returned to practice, on a limited basis.
Then again, practice for a quarterback is always limited, given that quarterbacks always wear no-touch red jerseys.
Per Matt Maiocco of CSNBayArea.com, Smith appears to be on track to return to action Monday night against the Bears. That said, the return of any concussion symptoms — headache, dizziness, blurred vision, etc. — could get Smith shut down for Week 11.
Often, a player who is diagnosed with a concussion misses at least one game. Plenty, however, don't miss a game. For Smith, who surely doesn't want to give Colin Kaepernick a chance to ignite a quarterback controversy, the starting quarterback likely will be reporting no symptoms of a concussion in the coming days.
Even if Smith experiences them.

Fullsize Invasion! - Bringing Big 4x4s to MoabPosted in Events on July 6, 2013
While there are many other weeks of the year, the week before Easter seems to be the hottest one for 4x4s in Moab, Utah. During this time, a good portion of the off-road industry sweeps into Moab for a week of trail riding, trade shows, and terrific times in unbelievable scenery and terrain. While the week before Easter was initially founded as the annual Easter Jeep Safari (EJS), it has become an event that has drawn four-wheel-drive vehicles of all kinds. Unfortunately, with the advent of bigger and more capable open-top Jeeps, OFF-ROAD and Four Wheeler magazines noticed a definite decline in the amount of fullsize rigs tackling the Moab trails during EJS. While we respect that this was founded as a Jeep event, we wanted to see a few more fullsizes invading Moab during that time. Thus, the Fullsize Invasion was born. The idea is to bring your fullsize to Moab during the EJS. On one or two days, we fullsize guys get together and go run some trails, making spectacles of ourselves. This year, we were fortunate to have Stephen Watson of Offroad Design (fullsize parts galore) leading the pack once again.
Can anyone come? Yes, even non-fullsize trucks. Will we give you free stuff? Maybe. Is it fun? Guaranteed.
We'll see you in Moab next year.

In case of disruption of College operations due to emergency, weather related incident, or utilities failure.
Nebraska Methodist College primarily serves students in the greater Omaha area, but also has many students throughout greater Nebraska and even nationally. Because of this geographical diversity it is impossible for the College to make effective emergency closure decisions for all geographic areas reached by the College. The College will be as comprehensive as possible when making announcements concerning emergencies, but the ultimate decision for safety rests with the individual student or staff member.
- College administration will monitor emergency situations to determine the extent to which some or all College operations will be suspended. Emergency situations are usually weather-related, but can also include power outages, mechanical breakdowns, health emergencies, or local or national crises.
- The ultimate decision for safety rests with the individual student or staff member. The individual should never travel to a classroom, clinical site, or other college-related function if the safety of the individual is threatened by the act of travel.
- In the event of an emergency situation, College Administration will announce the decisions concerning College operations as early as possible. Announcements related to overnight events that affect campus operations (usually weather-related) will be posted by 5 a.m., if at all possible
*Emergency events that give little or no forewarning will be communicated through the activation of the College calling tree in addition to the hotline, text message, email and web alert. Students with remaining questions concerning attendance should call their Program Director for further guidance. The ultimate decision concerning personal safety in the event of a crisis is the responsibility of the individual, regardless of the final decision of the College.

The changing face of DIY superMove over baby boomers, younger Australians are taking to self-managed superannuation funds in ever greater numbers. While the face of DIY super may be changing, the reasons for flying solo remain the same. Flexibility and control are the main drawcards, along with falling set-up costs.
The latest statistics from the Australian Taxation Office show that the number of trustees aged under 55 has grown significantly. Of SMSFs established in 2014, 71 per cent of members were under 55, up from 51 per cent in 2010 and 65 per cent in 2013. And the trend is expected to continue.
At the same time more women than men have set up SMSFs in recent times, particularly in the 35-44 age group. This is at odds with the long-held image that all SMSF trustees are wealthy older men. At June 30 last year, there were 65,771 female members in this age group versus 63,517 men.
Some of this change can be explained by the fact that Gen Y and younger Gen X have had superannuation since they started work, so many have built up a reasonable sum in their super by their mid to late 30s. As a result, they now want to take advantage of the flexibility and control that an SMSF can offer.
Greater controlNot only can you invest in a wider range of assets in an SMSF, but you have control of when and what you buy or sell.
Another driving force for SMSFs is that when markets perform weakly, many Australians believe they can do better by themselves and benefit from the lower fees.
Lower fees and the potential to outperform big super funds may prove particularly appealing for women who have forfeited years of superannuation contributions while they raise a family. It's a chance to catch up.
But it is worth remembering that SMSFs can just as easily perform badly in any given year. Just because you have control, it doesn't mean you are guaranteed positive returns.
In fact, some SMSFs may make the mistake of holding too much money in cash and not enough in growth assets like commercial property and international shares. In the current investment climate with the volatile stockmarket this may seem attractive, but cash rates are hardly setting the world on fire.
Cost benefitsThe rule of thumb is that you need a balance of at least $200,000 in your fund to make it cost effective.
While it may cost as little as $200 to buy an off-the-shelf trust deed, which is the main set-up cost, annual running costs average about $2500 depending on whether you do your own investing or get advice.
Of course if you know your SMSF balance is going to grow quickly over the next few years, then you may choose to accept higher relative costs in the early years.
Investment choiceOne of the key advantages of SMSFs is investment choice. If you want to borrow to invest in property inside super, for example, then a self-managed fund is the only way to go.
You may even be able to borrow money to fund your investment using what is called a limited recourse loan. The advantage of this type of loan is that other assets in your fund are not affected if you fail to meet the repayments.
For those in their 30s and 40s, the longer timeframe till retirement can make borrowing to invest in property a good strategy. Do make sure though that your portfolio is diversified and you have sufficient cash flow in your fund to finance the mortgage repayments.
Despite the attractions of running your own super fund, it's not for everyone. It's a long-term commitment and ultimately the responsibility for making sure your fund complies with the rules rests with you. If you would like to explore your superannuation options, please let us know.

It's not how you start but how you finish. That's among the favorite lines for a coach to use.
But Nick Price's start proved to be very important last year when he won the 17th Toshiba Classic. He opened the three-day tournament with an 11-under-par 60, which was a course, tournament and Champions Tour record. He ended up needing that score.
He prevailed after two rounds of 68 and held off to win by one stroke over Mark Wiebe. Price's hot start was too much for the field at the Toshiba Classic. He became the fourth wire-to-wire champion in Toshiba Classic history. He was one of two to lead wire to wire on the Champions Tour in 2011. It was his lone win on the tour last year, when he had 10 top-10 finishes.
Price, 55, has four wins on the Champions Tour. The Toshiba Classic victory capped a run of three titles within 11 months.
"I don't know how many more years I've got left," said Price, a three-time PGA Tour major champion and a Hall of Famer. "I want to win four or five times out here. I want to win a major or two ... I still have a competitive instinct and drive in me that I want to win. That's what gets me to the practice tee every day when I got to practice. When I get on the airplane and have to leave my family, the only thing is the light at the end of the tunnel is that I got a chance to win. I'm not coming here just to make a check. That ain't going to work."
Price's record round and rise to the title was one of several fascinating stories during the tournament.
Joe Ozaki grabbed attention by tying for third, despite reports of a devastating tsunami in his homeland of Japan.
Fan favorite Fred Couples tried but could not become Toshiba's first repeat champion. He finished tied for fifth.
Robert Thompson worked his way into the tournament by qualifying four days before it began and he tied with Couples.
Every year there's a new story to write.
It all began in ...
The first Toshiba Classic is played at Mesa Verde Country Club.
The Champions Tour is known as the PGA Senior Tour.
Out of the 78 golfers competing, a surprise champion is produced in George Archer. One day before the Toshiba Classic starts, Archer announces that he will retire at season's end from professional golf because of a degenerative hip.
Archer, the 1969 Masters Champion, goes on to win the tournament with a six-under 199, a stroke ahead of Dave Stockton and Tom Fargo, for his first victory in two years.
Archer has surgery but remains in professional golf, winning another tournament afterward. He is in the Toshiba Classic up until 2003. He dies on Sept. 25, 2005, at 65 years old.
The Toshiba Classic moves to Newport Beach Country Club.
The first year there does not provide any tight finish. Jim Colbert has a lot to do with that.
He takes a five-shot lead into the final round then picks up four birdies on the front nine to cruise to a two-stroke victory, his first in California. He becomes Toshiba's only wire-to-wire winner.
Colbert uses the win as momentum as he goes on to capture his second Champions Tour Player of the Year award in 1996.
Bob Eastwood ties the course record set at the 1976 Crosby Southern Pro-Am with a seven-under par 64 on the final day to finish second.
Colbert didn't create much suspense in '96, but Jay Sigel and Bob Murphy provide plenty this year. Sigel and Murphy go back and forth, battling in a then-Champions Tour record-long playoff of nine holes.
Sigel definitely has to climb to set up the playoff. He is six strokes behind Murphy with eight holes remaining in the final round, but Murphy has three bogeys on the back nine and Sigel birdies his last three holes to force a playoff.
ESPN gives air time to the next two hours of play of the playoff duel between Sigel and Murphy.
The pair plays the 18th hole four times and No. 16 three times.
Murphy is able to redeem himself. He puts to rest those three bogeys on the back nine that set up the playoff. He wins with an 80-foot birdie putt on the two-tiered green of the 17th hole.
Hale Irwin captures the first of his two Toshiba victories. He remains as the only player to win it twice. And, he did it with flair. He completes a then-course record 62 in the final round. Irwin, who begins Sunday's final round five strokes off the pace, passes 11 players to secure victory. The Famous Bunker Rake on the treacherous par-3 17th hole, however, aids his effort. The rake stops his ball from rolling into the pond fronting the green, allowing him to get up-and-down for par. The rake is housed in Newport Beach Country Club's clubhouse. The victory vaults Irwin to Player of the Year honors with seven victories.
Gary McCord, making his debut on the tour, outlasts John Jacobs on the fifth playoff hole with a birdie to claim the championship. It is his first victory in 383 starts.
Afterward McCord and Jacobs delight the fans with their humorous antics. McCord and Jacobs eliminate half of the four-player playoff field that include Al Geiberger and Allen Doyle with eagles on the first playoff hole. The four players finish at 54 holes of regulation at nine-under 204. McCord sinks an 18-foot putt after Jacobs chips in from 90 feet. After McCord makes his putt, he motions with a curled index finger for Jacobs to come and fetch his ball from the cup at 18 as fans cheer and laugh. Jacobs retrieves his ball, then chucks it into the crowd of 10-deep people.
Heavy rains and gusts of up to 20 miles per hour force officials to cancel the final round of the tournament, limiting the event to 36 holes. Allen Doyle is declared the champion after shooting a four-under 67 Saturday and finishes at six-under 136 for an eventual one-stroke victory over Howard Twitty and Jim Thorpe. No players tee off Sunday, the first and still only time in tournament history a round is canceled. Seventy-year-old Arnold Palmer plays his first competitive rounds in Orange County at the event. About 1,200 fans surround first tee for Palmer's pro-am round.
On the ninth playoff hole, the second time in tournament history an extra session spans that number, Jose Maria Canizares sinks a 24-foot, left-to-right birdie putt on the par-3 17th to defeat Gil Morgan for his first title on the tour and first victory in nine years. Both nine-hole playoffs are tour records. Canizares, who starts the final round five shots off the pace, and Morgan, both finish 54 holes at 11-under 202.
Hale Irwin wins the second of his Toshiba titles, breaking his own 54-hole tournament scoring record by four shots since the tournament moved to Newport Beach Country Club in 1996 with a 17-under (67-64-65 -- 196) performance. Irwin also sets a tournament record for margin of victory with his five-shot win over 2000 Toshiba champion Allen Doyle (66-68-67 -- 201).
Jim Colbert held the prior mark with a two-stroke victory in 1996. Before teeing off in the first round, he switches to forged blade irons, changes from graphite to steel shafts and adds fairway woods and a new sand wedge.
Australian Rodger Davis shoots a blistering 16-under 197 (65-64-68) to notch his first win on United States' soil and on the Champions Tour with a four-stroke victory. Davis, clad in knickers, just misses tying Hale Irwin's tournament record (17-under) set a year earlier. Two weeks before Toshiba, two men hold up Davis, another golfer and two caddies at gunpoint in a Mexico City restaurant.
Tom Purtzer fires a tournament and course record 11-under 60 in the first round, which includes nine birdies and an eagle, and adds 71 and 67 in the second and third rounds, respectively, to finish 15-under 198 en route to his second Champions Tour victory. Purtzer, who becomes only the fifth Champions Tour player to shoot 60, defeats college friend Morris Hatalsky by a stroke. History is also made as Jack Nicklaus, winner of a record 18 major championships, makes his Toshiba debut. Galleries swell to an estimated 80,000 as the Golden Bear shoots three-under 210 to finish tied for 36th.
Mark Johnson's background and finish supply the drama at the 11th installment of the Toshiba Classic. Johnson had been a beer truck driver for 18 years, earning himself the nickname, "Beer Man." He was also a California state amateur champion.
Johnson takes a three-stroke lead over Keith Fergus after a second-round 63. On Sunday, Johnson holes out on the 18th hole from 91 yards for eagle to clinch the tournament.
The Toshiba Classic is up for grabs this year as 28 golfers are within five strokes of one another in the final round. The finish ends up being just as furious, with the lead changing hands throughout the day.
When the sand settles Brad Bryant, a.k.a. Dr. Dirt, birdies five of his final eight holes for a five-under 66, tying Bobby Wadkins for the low score of the day. Bryant edges out Wadkins, John Harris and Mark Johnson by one stroke and three other golfers by two strokes for the title, his first on the Tour.
Jay Haas breaks Hale Irwin's five-year-old tournament record, finishing 19-under-par 194 (65-64-65), two better than Irwin's mark. It is Haas' seventh victory on the Champions Tour in only his 40th career start. Haas' 19-under-par mastery of Newport Beach Country Club not only eclipses Irwin's tournament record by two shots, but comes with only one bogey in 54 holes.
The native of Missouri and South Carolina resident holds 10 Champions Tour titles.
Haas accentuates his record-winning performance with a dramatic birdie putt on the 10th hole. The putt is one of four straight that essentially seal his victory.
On No. 10, Haas' 16-foot putt rolls to the cup, hangs on the lip for about eight seconds and drops. During that time the ball stays on the lip, Haas and Peter Jacobsen speak to each other, asking one another if the ball will drop.
Bernhard Langer drops to his knees after a birdie putt four inches from hole No. 18 on the seventh playoff hole to edge defending champ Haas for a memorable Toshiba.
Haas nearly sends the playoff to an eighth hole, but his three-foot putt stops just inches from the cup.
It is Langer's first tournament victory of the year and sends him on his way to earning Champions Tour Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year awards. He also collects the Arnold Palmer award, for gaining the most prize money on the tour, $2,035,073.
Haas suffers his first playoff loss after he had won twice on the Champions Tour and three on the PGA in such situations.
A final round 68, which includes four birdies in the first six holes on the back nine, propels Romero to a one-stroke victory over Mark O'Meara and Joey Sindelar. His back-nine charge at Newport Beach Country Club gives Romero his 100th career worldwide professional victory.
In one of the most highly anticipated debuts in Toshiba Classic history, Fred Couples certainly doesn't disappoint as he rolls to a four-stroke victory. His second-round 64 includes a tournament-record 5-under-par 30 on the front nine. After three rounds in blustery conditions, his total of 195, is only one-stroke short of the tournament record set in 2007 by Jay Haas.

To me, one of the best parts about visiting the Mid America Trucking Show every year is getting the chance to see more custom trucks up close than you can shake a stick at.
This year provide no exception as all sorts of highly stylized highway iron took center stage at the annual Mid America extravaganza – everything from antiques, such as the old school "Munchy Trucking" Mack out of Montpelier, Va. (at left), to all sorts of sleek low-rider configured tractors.
[To view a collection of just some of the show trucks parked for display at Mid America, click here.]
Now while a lot the dollars folks shell out to turn their rigs into such artistic displays may seem extreme, many say they see returns on such big-ticket investments – especially when it comes to winning and keeping business from shippers.
[Indeed, I discussed this very benefit last year in the October issue of American Trucker magazine.]
Suffice to say, though, whatever the reason truck owners decide upon for customizing their rigs, the results are invariably spectacular to the eye. You can see what I mean in the video below:
I'll tell one thing: this is a facet of the trucking industry that's never going to go out of style!

We are a Texas company specializing in the preparation of residential real estate legal documents. Sounds exciting doesn't it? Ha. We are splitting off from our stuffy law firm image and are in need of a new logo asap.
Community residential lenders. Small town banks, credit unions, mortgage companies nationwide, institutional lenders.
Check out our website (http://www.ppdocs.com) to see what we have and make it better. A picture of our building ins on there as well, and the image should reflect something along the lines of classy, maybe with some Western elements but not TOO edgy. We are heavy technology, but don't want something that is too modern or slick.
Will need vector files (pref. .ai or.psd) for various sizing/printing needs and would like black and white background versions.
Would like it to be a design that could embroider well on shirts, printed on business cards, and such.

I just want to give you an update about my "special case". I took Cortisone for 4 weeks (against antibodies against nerve system). The effect was that it went worse day by day...In the end I had to go to emergency department of hospital. Every muscle in my body hurt..I could not walk any more. I had a very intense neuro exam there. Everything normal apart from one hyperreflex in my right biceps. The neuro asked me if I had a herniated disc in throat spine...and yes. I have...And apart from a slight restricted nerve conduction in both of my legs (which I have been told before). But no other odd signs.
I have to admit that my local neuro sees atrophy, but he said "no hair of my head thinks this could be MND". But ok. Cortisone seems not to be helping...Now I stopped it and today I had a 4 km walk again! So I tried not to be too worried. If it went worse and then it went much better again, that is a good sign to me!
Anyway, I have now an appointment in hosptial in the neuro department to make more diagnostics...That is quite a long time to wait, until the 9th of September. But I try to be positive. Symptoms still wax and wane. Went bad and then better...After now one year of twichting. So in my case it seems to be true, that, even if it's not bfs, it does not mean it has to be mnd though...
German2 wrote:Dear Bibi,
I never heard of jaw yerks in context of mnd..And obviously your pain symptoms even got better..It is good that you have something for sleeping. I take the same, double dose..I know how it feels, if you feel anxiety the whole day. Our chances to get s.th. nasty are the same. Statistic is not so important. It is always an individual fate. You have the same chance to have bfs like any other here (forget about me, I seems to have s.th. else obviously ...My next neuro appointment is also 25th of August. Hospital 9th of September...It is always a long run. But I know time goes by...it really does. I am into symptoms since almost 2 years (when it all started they also had some nasty potential diagnosis for me - which not became true), and into twitching 12 month (some other nasty potential things popped up). No quality time. Really not. Symptoms came and go. But after all I am hoping that after a while the nasty things are outdated. Time will fly, believe me...it is just a few days until your neur appt. I keep my fingers crossed for you, also!
German2 wrote:Dear all,
Now I marked my one year, though I am not very optimistic and don't feel very well. Muscle pain come and go with different locations, strange sensible feelings, some twitches, but not very often any longer - this got better.
But o.k. I definitely don't have BFS. So this mark might not so much apply to me...I have antibodies against my nerve system and probably have polyneuropathy (Though I do not now how often those ganglioside antibodies are tested anyway. All other neuros before did not even think about this option).
I saw my neuro surgeon today. He looked at my antibodies of my nerve system and is also quite sure, it is an autoimmune Polyneuropathie in combination with my hashimoto which I also do have...Those antibodies also appear with MND, but he is also sure - same as my neuro - this has a totally different development.
So maybe you can take me as an example that even not having BFS and twitches and slight atrophy does not automatically means MND (that is what I hope!!).
On the 18th of August I see the MND expert again (he asked me to come again, after I wrote him about the antibodies, but he stretches, he doesn't want to see me in the MND ambulance but in his regular office hour. He wrote certain essays about those antibodies and might be interested in the case - that is my idea).
I have an appointment in neuro hospital for a check-in on the 9th of September but my neuro and neuro surgeon are of the opionion that this is not the right way. And it would better to have a muscle and nerve biopsy in the end, after trying some medication and see how it helps. All testings would just show up that something is wrong but not the reason. This university hospital here is regarded a bit critical in diagnostics, too (Mayo Clinic is a bit too far away ) So I am not yet sure, what I do...I know my neuro is a very good one. The only one with a clear idea up to now...
My only positive outlook is, that the shrinked muscle under my foot seems to grow again a bit...That is what I think (up to know I just realized decline..). The same happened to my palm muscles one year ago. So there seems to be a process which is slightly reversible...And no weakness yet. Strong hands (I traine the quite often), though slight atrophy..Walking on heels and tiptoes no problem...Strenght testing perfectly.
I can just summarize, that the last year I went through a special hell. Twichtes, atrophy...I was in a very dark place...And still I do not see the light..My mood is depressed. I almost get used to and must admit that I am just arranging with the situation that life just lost most of its qualitiy...
But I don't give up at all...
So if you feel like, keep your fingers crossed for me (and my kids and familiy) that everything turnes out in something treatable...

Beef was the preferred meat in Restoration London - at least if you could afford it.
The French Henri Misson, visiting England at the time, wrote:
"I always heard they were great fresh eaters and I found it true. I have known several people in England that never eat any bread and universally they eat very little: they nibble a few crumbs, while they chew the meat by whole mouthfuls. Generally speaking, the English tables are not delicately served...[they will have] a piece of roast beef; another time they will have a piece of boiled beef and then they salt it some days beforehand and besiege it with five or six heaps of cabbage, carrots, turnips, or some other herbs or roots, well peppered and salted and swimming in butter."
Sunday was of course the day when it was "...common practice to have a huge piece of roast beef of which they stuff till they can swallow no more and eat the rest cold, without any other victuals, the other six days of the week."
Of course buchers would not sell meat on a Sunday, the beef had to be purchased the day before. This meant that in hot summer weather the meat went smelly overnight. To delay the rotting of the meat, once brought home it would be dropped into a tub of brine (salt-water)
Below is a favourite recipe of the day:
"Beef Carbonadoed
Steep your beef in claret wine, salt, pepper and nutmeg, then broil it on the embers, over a temperate and unsmoky fire. In the meantime, boil up the liquour wherein it was steeped and serve it for sauce with beaten butter."

Too much butter for me...

That's true -- butter on steak is disgusting (I missed that part). The nutmeg doesn't sound to good either come to think of it. I guess it was the claret and the broiling that so moved me.

Meat cooked in wine is extremely tasty; I cook steaks, chicken and even liver in wine and add some lemon and olive oil. Very nice. Butter however is disgusting.
The secret is to use red wine :-)

June 2009 Mail Bag - Letters to the EditorPosted in Project Vehicles on June 1, 2009
Readers Cheap
Thanks for the "51 Cheap Tips" article (March '09). I would be willing to bet that the readers out there have some great tips that could be shared with all Jp magazine readers. How about doing a reader's cheap tips down the road somewhere? I'll even throw in my cheap tip: Ever lose something down behind the gap between the dash and the firewall in your JK? Go get a foam pipe insulator from your local hardware store (about two bucks) and cut it to length and slide it into the gap. It works like a champ and you never have to worry about losing your wallet, pen or cell phone behind the dash again.Miles NewsomeWichita Falls, Texas
Strap Smart
You really need to hire someone that is older than a Wrangler! On page 21 of the "51 Cheap Tricks" article in the March '09 magazine there is a comment about a windshield strap and how convenient this little tie down is. I agree, it holds the windshield down to the hood very well, just like it was intended to do. "We think it was supposed to be for the top" doesn't anyone ever put their windshield down or is that forbidden in the land of the bear? At least the photo has it on the right footman loop (the only one on a real Jeep). I'll keep driving my '85 CJ-7 and keep reading since I've been doing it for as long as this magazine has been around. But I'm not sure whether to laugh at you guys or cry.Troy WilcoxRavenna, Ohio
We went to our resident electrical wizard Pete Trasborg for a response. Here's what he had to say:
There were like four or five of these straps in my TJ, and there are just as many of them in our '01 Wrangler Red.
Sure, one could be used for the windshield, although I've never tried it, and I'm not sure it's long enough. You only need one in theory to hold down the windshield. What are the other three or four for? Seems to me like more of them are for the top (or other uses) than are for the windshield, otherwise, why include so many of them?
I've used them more often (even on my CJ's) to wrap around the top or top bows and keep them from rattling or the top from blowing out. It works great for that use. Even though I thought one could be used for the windshield, I'd rather talk about what I know and have personally done.
I don't put the windshield down on my Jeeps cause the seal never seems to seal correctly again after that, and I'm not overly worried about knocking the windshield off on a tree or a rock. Plus, in New Jersey it is illegal to drive with the windshield down.-Pete Trasborg
Dauntless Cooling
Nothing has seemed more directed to me than the Spendy Cooling tip in "51 Cheap Tips" (March '09). Great article by the way.
My dauntless-equipped M38A1 project has been put on the back burner for about a year due to a few minor things, one being a radiator. No worries, I've been wasting my time on two other pre-'75 Jeeps in the meantime. Anyways, all the replacement radiators I've seen have been over $300, which I'd rather not pay unless I need to. I've scoured junkyards to no end, trying to find a decent radiator small enough, with the correct inlet/outlet. With no luck, it was an omen to see this article. I went to the Griffin website (griffenrad.com) but had a hard time navigating it. Maybe I'm just an idiot. Thanks a ton! Strider380Via jpmagazine.com
What's an A'whole?
I recently bought Jp magazine because on the cover it mentioned the 2010 electric Wrangler ("2010 Electric Jeep", Jan. '09). What I really have to say is "f%^& you a'wholes!", you gave this great vehicle a lousy article just like Motor Trend and Car and Driver did for the GM EV1 back in the late 1990s because it isn't traditional and too tree-hugger-like. All you did is give these great vehicle a bit no bigger than the Edelbrock ads in the back of the magazine, where's the four-five pages of how we can still go have fun off-road but give big oil the middle finger every day when going to work and plugging it in the wall at home every night.Robert RoweColorado Springs, Colorado
Uhhh, it's a two page story, it's a two-wheel-drive concept Jeep, and it's not even available. Why are you so upset? Please excuse me while I go buy a big-block V-8 engine, throw used oil in the gutter, and club some baby seals to make myself feel better.
Mine's Bigger
With all due respect to you guys, you made a mistake in the March '09 issue. You had stated in the "It's Show Time" article that the All Breeds Jeep Show was the largest in the North East at 520 participating Jeeps and 4,625 spectators. We had the 8th Great American Jeep Rally on September 20th 2008, and we had 610 Jeeps come through the gates, and our estimation of spectators is well over 3,000. On top of that our staffs Jeeps did not go towards the total.
I hate to see all the hard work that our volunteers did get pushed aside because we are not sponsored by a big corporation. It was bad enough that you had misprinted our date in your mag, but please give us the credit we deserve as the largest Jeep show in the North East.
For more info go to jeeprally.org.Mark FisherVia e-mail
Sooo, is that 610 Jeeps through the gates or 610 actual event participants? Not sure your numbers are adding up the same. Ehh, either way. Here is your day in the sun.
Because It's Not a Jeep...
I am a long time subscriber and really enjoy your magazine. I do have a question regarding the "Identity Crisis" article in the March '09 issue though. One military vehicle missing was the M422A1. It was also called a Mighty Mite. As I recall it was built by American Motors in the early '60s for use in Vietnam. As I remember it was an all aluminum V-4 engine. In stock form it could out-climb any other Jeep I have ever driven. Actually it was this Jeep that got me into four-wheeling 36 years ago.Jerry ScottVia e-mail
I don't really consider the '59-'62 Mighty Mite a Jeep. American Motors built it long before the AMC purchase of Jeep. I will admit it is Jeep-like though. And while we're at it, the M151 isn't a Jeep either. It is true that some M151s were built by the commercial products division of Willys Motors, but the vehicle was developed by Ford.
Real Toy
I just wanted to share my grandson Tyler's Christmas with Jp.
I hope you enjoy his backyard '48 CJ-2A as much as we enjoy your magazine.Richard ClickPorter, Texas
Almost a Darwin Award
While on a run with my Jeep club, I had an emergency situation arise. We were way off the main road in an alder grove down near the Humptulips River when my interior cabin filled up with smoke or steam while I was driving. As I stopped and jumped out, opening the doors and hatch, I noted to myself that I couldn't smell electrical or engine smoke; in fact there was no noticeable smell at all.
The guys behind me came running up to see what was going on and later told me a cloud of smoke or steam followed me when I leaped out of my Jeep. As I was frantically checking around and under the vehicle, one of them started laughing. It seems that my Border collie had somehow triggered the fire extinguisher briefly releasing a fine white powder inside my vehicle! Fastened on the roll bar behind my seat, it sprayed off the window then floated throughout the rest of the interior causing me several moments of panic.
Now in addition to cleaning the mud off the outside of the Jeep, I have to clean the inside of white powdery residue.
Lesson 1: If you think there is a vehicle fire, grab the fire extinguisher first then look for the cause.
Lesson 2: Secure the pin and handle better to prevent accidental discharges.
Lesson 3: Teach the dog to use the extinguisher only in cases of emergency.Vern SpatzAberdeen, Washington
Factory Flogging
The other day while I was dodging stalled vehicles who were stuck in less than 2 inches of snow on the roadway, I realized how lucky I am to own a Jeep. It's an '05 Grand Cherokee Laredo with the full-time four-wheel-drive. As I was driving around barely noticing the snow I began to wonder just how much snow my Jeep could handle or perhaps mud rocks or other off-road obstacles. I know my Jeep is more known for its mall-crawling properties or grocery getting abilities (as is stated by almost all of the online and magazine sources) but what can these new drive systems actually tackle? I think it is time to line-up and test all of the different vehicles produced by Jeep and see exactly what it takes to stop one cold. Also it would be just plain fun! If you decide to give it a whirl I know where you can find a WK Laredo.Dj FerreiraBurke, Virginia
Awesome! Send us your Jeep for a few months and when we're done testing we'll send all the broken parts back in a box along with the results of our test. Anyone else want to let us drive their Jeep?
Fire Hazel!
You've got to do something with Hazel. I was feeling pretty good about myself. Iscored this decent '90 YJ with a six-cylinder and five-speed. It looks OK and has decent tires on it. There is no top and only surface rust spots on the body. Not bad for a beach Jeep. Only cost me $2,000, it's in my driveway and I'm smiling.
Then this jerk, this demon from the bowels of hell finds one for $500. Yeah, it's a four-cylinder, but it's nicer and has a top! I mean how is your ordinary reader suppose to maintain his or her self-esteem when they're constantly under barrage from this madman you have working for you.
And then, we'll be ridiculed further with these so-called "articles". Everyone knows this is just his diabolical way of flaunting his "find" in our faces.
Please spare us. Rid us of this curse to Jeepdom.
Sincerely, (yeah right!!)Ron CrumplerPanama City Beach, Florida
Missing February

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Intel Corp's current-quarter revenue forecast disappointed Wall Street, while a sharp rise in planned 2013 capital spending unnerved investors who expect personal computer demand to dwindle.
Shares of the world's leading chipmaker slid more than 5 percent after it projected 2013 capital spending at $13 billion - plus or minus $500 million - exceeding many analysts' estimates for about $10 billion.
Intel said $2 billion of its increased spending would go toward expanding a facility for researching future manufacturing technology. But some analysts worried that expanding too quickly may create excess capacity that could hurt the bottom line if it has to idle plants.
"People are starting to freak out about the capex," said Sanford C. Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon. "They are making the bet this year and hoping for a big revenue lift in 2014. If you think that PCs are not growing that much anymore, then what's going to drive it?"
"The concern is that if I spend a lot of money and I build up my factories, I don't have enough demand to fill them, they have very high fixed costs, and it pulls your margins down," Rasgon said.
Outgoing Chief Executive Paul Otellini, who plans to retire in May after a successor is identified, said the investment in manufacturing would suppress costs in the long run.
"The leading edge capacity is the lowest cost for us on a per unit basis," Otellini told analysts on a conference call. "Regardless of what you think the size of the market is, the leading edge fabs are the single greatest asset that we have."
Otellini said the higher capex is not intended to bankroll a foundry or contract chipmaking business. But he did not rule out manufacturing semiconductors for other chip companies - as long as that did not empower a rival.
In the fourth quarter, Intel's revenue was $13.5 billion, compared with $13.9 billion a year earlier. Analysts had expected $13.53 billion in revenue for the fourth quarter.
It estimated first-quarter revenue of $12.7 billion, plus or minus $500 million. Analysts expected $12.91 billion for the current quarter.
Facing lower demand, Intel said in October it was running factories at less than half of their capacity.
Intel is used to being king of the personal computer market, particularly through its historic Wintel alliance with Microsoft which has led to breathtakingly high profit margins and an 80 percent market share.
But it has struggled to adapt its technology for smartphones and tablets, a market dominated by Qualcomm Inc, Samsung Electronics Co Ltd and Nvidia Corp. PC makers are struggling to stop a decline in sales as consumers hold off on buying new laptops in favor of spending on more nimble mobile gadgets.
Microsoft Corp's long-awaited launch of Windows 8 in October brought touchscreen features to laptops but failed to spark a resurgence in sales that Intel and many PC manufacturers had hoped for.
However, some Wall Street analysts gave Intel high marks for operating efficiency.
"The revenue isn't going to be there, but the margin and expense control is going to stabilize the bottom line," said Cody Acree, an analyst at Williams Financial. "I think it's probably a success if you can be flat in an industry that most people expect to be flat-to-down."
It foresees first-quarter gross margins of 58 percent, plus or minus two percentage points. Analysts on average expected gross margins of about 56 percent for the current quarter, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
It estimated a 2013 gross margin of 60 percent, plus or minus a few percentage points. Analysts on average had expected 59 percent.
Net earnings in the December quarter were $2.5 billion, or 48 cents a share, compared with $3.4 billion, or 64 cents a share, year-ago period.
Analysts had expected 45 cents, and said the surprisingly strong performance was partly due to a lower effective tax rate of 23 percent. This was below Intel's forecast of about 27 percent.
Still, shares of Intel fell 5.6 percent in after hours trade to $21.43, after closing up 2.58 percent at $22.68 on Nasdaq.
"This is a company that is continuing to spend money to participate in the market. That may concern some investors," said Doug Freedman, an analyst at RBC Capital.

Treasure Chest Thursday - 7 January 2010
As I have said before, my family was never one to use a wastebasket, so I have all sorts of ephemera that the neighbors of my Wisconsin families probably threw out right after the holidays. Not so in the Hollander, Johnson, and Trapschuh homes: they kept the holiday magazines that now I use as part of my Christmas decorations. This year, very few decorations went up due to illnesses in our home, but I did display the books and magazines from holidays past (most, long, long passed). But now, with 12th night behind us, I must pack them away for a season . . . but I'll haul them out next year and the year after that, etc., enjoying the look into lives that, to some, were simpler than ours (I don't necessarily agree: I love my dishwasher, washing machine, computer, automobile, etc.). So here's one last look at a holiday favorite from 110 years (and one month) ago.

Wonderful! My wife collects sheet music from this period, from garage sales, flea markets, etc. They tell amazing stories. Good for you, sharing them with family and friends, each year at Christmas. Neat!ReplyDelete
