In an anticipated, but no less surprising move, the City Council of the City of Los Angeles (“Los Angeles”) agreed to transfer Ontario International Airport (“ONT”), currently owned and operated by Los Angeles, to the Ontario International Airport Authority (“OIAA”) and its members which include the City of Ontario (“Ontario”). The transfer occurs in settlement of a currently pending lawsuit in the Riverside County Superior Court in which Ontario, the OIAA, and other parties challenged the legal right of Los Angeles to ownership and operation of ONT.
Reliever airports, once touted as the solution to major metropolitan airport congestion and its environmental impacts on surrounding communities are now facing daunting financial and competitive challenges from the very same airports they were supposed to relieve.
Reliever airports, defined as “general aviation airports in major metropolitan areas that provide pilots with attractive alternatives to using congested hub airports,” Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) Advisory Circular 150/5070-6B, Appendix A, Glossary, were typically developed to occupy a market niche in their local regions. For years, they succeeded in their task. Since 2009, however, reliever airports throughout the country have lost substantial proportions of their passengers to the major urban airports. In Southern California alone, reliever airports such as Ontario International Airport (“ONT”) and Long Beach Airport (“LGB”) have seen massive reductions in their passenger counts. Now these airports are forced to take drastic steps to remain viable.

The Cities of Inglewood, Culver City and Ontario, California and the County of San Bernardino (“Cities/County”) joined together yesterday, May 30, 2013, to file a challenge to the recently approved Los Angeles International Airport (“LAX”) Specific Plan Amendment Study (“SPAS”) expansion project. The project includes: the further separation of runways on the North Airfield to…
On July 27, 2012, Los Angeles World Airports (“LAWA”) released the “Specific Plan Amendment Study Draft Environmental Impact Report” (“DEIR”), involving, among other things: (1) a realignment and extension of runways to the east on the North Airfield Complex, including a separation of the two north runways to permit their unimpeded use by the largest operating aircraft, A-380s and 747-800s (“Category VI”); (2) expansion and renovation of the terminals; and (3) associated movement and potential undergrounding of surrounding thoroughfares including Lincoln Boulevard. Sides are already forming over the proposed plan. Continue Reading Draft Environmental Impact Report for Los Angeles International Airport Airfield Project Released
The City of Los Angeles (“Los Angeles”) went on record yet again, rebuffing a cooperative effort between the City of Ontario (“Ontario”) and County of San Bernardino (“San Bernardino”) to promote growth at Ontario International Airport (“ONT”). The Los Angeles City Council formally voted to oppose SB466, introduced earlier this year by Senator Bob Dutton, which would allow for structured negotiations regarding the transfer of ONT to a newly formed joint powers agency comprised of Ontario and San Bernardino. The rationale for the legislation is that ONT has proportionally suffered the worst loss of passengers and airline operations of any airport in the Southern California region, and that a shift to local control is needed to restart what had previously been considered the economic engine for the Inland Empire.Continue Reading City of Los Angeles Opposes Legislative Efforts to Encourage Growth at Ontario
The citizens of Newport Beach read with interest the front page article in the Orange County newspaper, the Daily Pilot, a subsidiary of the Los Angeles Times, of July 10, 2011, concerning this weekend’s air show at the Orange County “Great Park.” They looked with even greater consternation at the remarks of one of the attendees who stated “Airplanes in general have been a fascination for people . . . these days you don’t see them flying around as much. And when you have a chance to see them up close and personal it’s a good reason to come out.” Where has this guy been living for the last 15 years – under a rock?Continue Reading If Airplanes are so Fascinating, the “Great Park” Can Have Ours
The Federal Aviation Administration’s most recent forecast of future airline passengers at the region’s airports is an eye opener. In the forecast year 2030, FAA is projecting 49.3 million enplanements (98.6 million total passengers) at Los Angeles International Airport; 3 million enplanements (6 million total passengers) at Ontario International Airport; and 6.6 million enplanements (13.2 million air passengers) for John Wayne Airport. This compares to current figures for LAX of approximately 58 million air passengers a year; Ontario, 4.5 million air passengers a year; and John Wayne Airport, 9.8 million air passengers a year.
Of course, 2030 is 20 years away and much can happen between now and then. Therefore, the real eye opener is the comparatively low projected growth of Ontario. Despite the fact that Ontario has new terminals, runways thousands of feet longer than those at John Wayne Airport, and convenient freeway access to all of the Inland Empire as well as northeast Orange County, FAA does not expect it to grow more than 33%, compared to John Wayne Airport’s 38% and LAX’s whopping approximately 60%.Continue Reading FAA’s Most Recent Forecast Sees Massive Increase in Passengers at Region’s Airports
On May 18, 2010, the Los Angeles City Council approved, by a 12-3 margin, a Motion calling for a study of the requirements for, and costs and benefits of, returning Ontario International Airport (“ONT”) to the control of the City of Ontario, California.
Passenger traffic at Ontario has declined from 7.2 Million Air Passengers in…
Los Angeles World Airports on Monday projected a $647.6 million operating budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1, according to preliminary figures. The operating budget covers day-to-day expenses at Los Angeles International Airport and the agency’s smaller airports in Ontario and Van Nuys. On its own, LAX’s operating costs during the 2010 fiscal…

Ever since HBO's gritty prison drama "Oz," we've been big fans of Kirk Acevedo; and it's good to see the actor getting some high profile roles lately, including a stint on this season of "The Walking Dead." Next up for Kirk? He's heading to Syfy!
Noah Bean is reuniting with his "Nikita" co-star Aaron Stanford in Syfy's "12 Monkeys" pilot, and he's being joined by Emmy winner Željko Ivanek ("Damages," "Oz," "24"), who will guest star.
When the wonderful Ms. Charlaine Harris sat down to scratch out the first lines of Dead Until Dark, the first of The Southern Vampire Mysteries that would go on to become the basis for HBO's series "True Blood," there's no way should could have known it was going to go on to become the mega-hit we know today.

INFLUENCE OF AN UNHEATED STARTING LENGTH ON HEAT TRANSFER IN A TRANSPIRED TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYER
An experimental investigation of the influence of an unheated, solid starting length on heat transfer in a uniformly blown turbulent boundary layer on a flat plate was carried out. It was concluded that the effect is significant in a region less than twice the starting length. Further the correction formula of Seban, previously validated for the zero blowing case, gives an inaccurate prediction of heat transfer when applied to transpired boundary layers. An approximate analysis is presented in this paper that showed good qualitative agreement with the experimental data. The analysis was carried out for several step Reynolds numbers. The present results are also compared with those of Whitten et al., where applicable and good agreement was found.

Keep the wetlands wet and wild.
The Natural Areas Conservancy and the city Parks Department released a plan last Wednesday to restore New York wetlands and keep them healthy over the next 30 years.
To do that, the new report, titled “Wetlands Management Framework for New York City,” identifies more than 300 acres of wetland restoration projects in NYC Parks properties — many of them situated in Jamaica Bay and other sections of Queens.
The report points out that of the 5,650 acres of wetlands in New York City today, around half of that total is managed by NYC Parks. That is a small fraction of the city’s historical wetlands from about 400 years ago — 85 percent of which were destroyed by sea-level rise, development and pollution as New York City has grown.
The report describes wetlands as an essential part of the ecosystem, which provide recreation opportunities, enhance resilience to climate change and support hundreds of species of birds, plants and fish. Their value is immense. Every year more people visit Jamaica Bay than Yellowstone National Park, it points out.
The report’s goals include creating new wetlands, transferring about 93 acres of publicly owned property to Parks Department’s jurisdiction, acquiring another 50 acres currently under private ownership, dedicating funds for capital restoration of 288 acres of marshes and increasing wetlands staffing.
Several of its top priority projects are in Queens. The borough’s highest priority project is in Rosedale’s Idlewild Park, where the report recommends spending $3.6 million for sediment placement, a process that builds on an existing marsh that is drowning due to sea-level rise.
The report’s second-priority projects in Queens all involved removing historical landfills on former salt marshes or ponds to restore the wetlands. It recommends a $9.7 million fill removal project in Alley Pond Park, a $6.1 million project in Brandt Point, a $130,000 project in Broad Channel and a $4.8 million project in Ramblersville.

Backpackers survive desert marathon
It wasn’t the heat that almost got them, or their alarming lack of supplies.
French backpackers Valentin, Jérôme and Cécile say it was the red-raw blisters on their feet, and the never-ending swarms of flies that almost made them give up.
The friends trekked 42 kilometres – the equivalent of a marathon – through the WA desert at the weekend, when their car broke down 100km from Norseman.
It was a huge gamble to walk away from their Ford Falcon station wagon, when the steering column and three tires went bust on dirt road on Saturday afternoon. They had five apples, a packet of tortillas, peanut butter, half a carton of orange juice and just 4 litres of water.
“A situation like that when you need to survive, you need an objective, you need a plan. If you stay in your car just waiting you don’t know how long you will wait,” explained 25-year-old Valentin Xicluna.
He admits rescuers later told them they should have stayed with their car, but because it was such a quiet dirt road, the backpackers decided to risk it.
“Hallelujah!” exclaimed Cécile Faivre, in a word that needs little translation between English and French.
In the car was a family with no room for the exhausted backpackers.
Instead the driver left them water, and kept going, with a promise he’ll send help when he got within mobile phone range of the nearest town.
At 10.30pm, just as the backpackers thought they would spend a second night under the stars, headlights of an SES vehicle appeared.
After 24 hours, and with 26-year-old Jérôme Debray struggling physically and mentally, a car finally arrived.
Despite their physical state, the backpackers had a laugh with their rescuers, when they mentioned Reg Foggerdy, the Perth man who survived six nights lost in bush by eating ants.
“Our rescuers when they come catch us, they just laugh and say 'Yeah hopefully you have not eaten ants like the other man!”
They returned to Perth yesterday, and are trying to find work to continue their Australian trip.

Rialto Towers hotels
The Rialto Towers is a skyscraper located in the western portion of the Central Business District of Melbourne, Australia. The 251-metre structure is one of the tallest office buildings in the southern hemisphere. The building was constructed over a span of four years, and opened to the public in 1986. Rialto Towers takes its name from the Rialto Building located next-door. The Rialto Towers is known for its distinctive mirrored glass that changes colour throughout the day. As one of the most unique and recognizable buildings in Melbourne, Rialto Towers is a must-see.
- Enjoy a great meal on the 55th floor of the Rialto Towers at Vue de Monde, which offers guests excellent wine and French-inspired cuisine paired with spectacular panoramic views of downtown Melbourne.
- Test your physical fitness at the Rialto Run-up and compete against other Melbourne athletes to be the first to reach the top of the tower's 1,254 stairs.
- Check out the Old Rialto Building next door to the towers, and enjoy the ornate archways and niches that create its magnificent façade.
Rialto Towers is located near the heart of the Melbourne Central Business District, so it is not hard to visit using the city's efficient public transportation system. One of the easiest ways to get to the Rialto Towers is to take the Melbourne Metro to the Southern Cross station, which is about a five-minute walk away from the building. Visitors can also take one of the Collins Street tramlines, as several routes pass near this impressive landmark. For those that prefer to drive, the towers feature an on-site car park for long and short-term parking.

We caught up with the fashion favourite and UNIQLO U director.
Yesterday, fashion designer Christophe Lemaire showed his spring/summer 2020 collection in the courtyard of the Parisian art school École Duperré. And as much as we—once more—adore his designs, unfortunately our bank accounts don’t always have that same opinion. No reason to be sad, though; since 2016, Lemaire is also the creative director of UNIQLO U, taking his sophisticated signature to the high street. How, exactly? Well, that’s exactly what the designer told Glamcult when we recently visited UNIQLO’s R&D centre in Paris. Tune in!
There’s an obvious sense of continuity in your collections for UNIQLO—but can you start by discussing what’s changed this season?
This collection was set three years ago with this clear concept of making an avant-garde or elevated version of LifeWear. That’s not easy to explain because people were always projecting the previous UNIQLO x Lemaire collaboration, which was super successful. UNIQLO collaborates with many brands, such as JW Anderson, and I had to insist: this is not that same kind of collaboration. It’s my point of view and my taste, but it’s a real LifeWear concept. Made for all, universal, timeless and easy to understand but with style and refinement. It’s the same concept that we try to improve every season.
What are the similarities and differences in terms of cut, silhouettes and colour?
We wanted to escape from streetwear and activewear. That’s a big trend and it’s not going to disappear, of course, but as you can feel it’s a bit saturated. We were very interested in this formal vibe of the late ’60s in Paris, which we called ‘student chic’. Corduroy suits, turtlenecks and menswear wardrobe classics like truck driver jackets, button-down shirts and straight-leg trousers…
When you work on a collection like this one for UNIQLO, there’s a sense of limitation at the beginning; you have to work within a framework and respect it. Some creators can experience this as a frustration while others find a deeper creativity this way. Is that your take on things?
Yes, of course, you need a frame or otherwise you can get lost in creativity. And, as a designer, nothing is worse than a white page. Even here, you need a kind of mood or a pitch. And when you have that from the beginning it clarifies everything. I don’t understand designers that sign with a brand but don’t want to work with the frame or limitation of that brand. When you decide to design for a brand like UNIQLO, you understand what UNIQLO is about. It’s universal, international, industrial, and it has a good price point… I was lucky because I could pick my own team with elevating UNIQLO in mind. It wasn’t only about looking for talent; it was also about the ability to understand what UNIQLO is about and their interest in that. That was a very important first step in recruiting a dedicated team. One message I gave to the team is that, visually, the product must be immediately comprehensible. It shouldn’t only be cool for your fashion friends, but also for your mother or uncle.
There seems to be a sense of sobriety.
Yes, I think it’s great that there’s a lot of eccentricity in the fashion world, but we also need good pieces for every morning when you need to get dressed in five minutes! The problem is that fashion has sort of forgotten that in the past 30 years. It’s all about creating noise and we need that, but we also need to go back to a certain common sense with clothing. That’s why I was so interested in working for UNIQLO; not speaking too loudly is an essential dimension of the clothes.
For you, what’s the difference between working on menswear and womenswear?
It’s different for sure. The boundaries are dissolving. Womenswear fabrics are becoming tougher and more solid. For menswear the vocabulary is smaller but it’s also changing a lot. There’s more room for diversity, fluidity, sensuality… At UNIQLO, however, we are mostly interested in: what’s the perfect archetypal piece? If you do a duffel coat, how do you do it well? There’s so many wrong duffel coats on the market. We’re not here to replicate, so how can we be faithful to the authenticity of it and yet make it relevant for today? It’s very much a design approach.
Do you think in 20 years there’s a possibility for perfect unisex fashion?
I don’t know! I think it’s very interesting to see that at UNIQLO, for instance, the shop staff tell us more and more women are buying menswear and men are buying womenswear. There will likely always be boundaries, and there are body specificities, but there’s a lot of room and freedom in-between…
What makes for a classic or archetype in fashion?
I really like visual dictionaries such as Macmillan, where I go to the textile section and find that very inspiring. There’s a super normality and the concept is very ’90s. I would also refer to Twin Peaks and its styling, which is very generic and not too ‘fashion’. We have that direction in mind when we design. Then there are other contemporary elements like functionality. I really like this idea of the ‘supernormal’ and making it anything but boring.

In this month's issue of Houstonia, I share picks for hometown classics that should pull at the heartstrings of folks from around the country. But I didn't include my own comfort food of choice. I used bagels to cover the needs of New Yorkers, but as a native of the NYC suburbs, there's something else even more soul-satisfying for me. When I need to eat my feelings, nothing hits the spot quite like a correctly prepared chicken Parmigiana.
For a variety of reasons, yesterday I found myself in need of a gustatory Xanax equivalent. Luckily, I was just weeks removed from a conversation with fellow New Yorker Ziggy Gruber of Kenny & Ziggy's regarding our native cuisine. He said that Romano's Pizza is such a faithful interpretation of a New York pizzeria that it draws him back more than once a week. Pizza is all well and good, and I'll likely be hit by a craving for a thin, chewy hand-tossed crust before long, but there has never been a time in my life when a fried, mozzarella-enveloped chicken breast wasn't my most direct route to a dopamine boost.
And now, thanks to Gruber, I have a reliable source. I had high hopes when I entered the pizzeria to find the lighting dark, the tables mostly covered with un-bussed food and the counter help overwhelmed and cranky. Just like home. The $18 price tag for a chicken Parm was a bit of a surprise, until I realized the heft of the meal, which includes a basket of warm garlic bread and a salad bedecked in triangles of Provolone and salami.
When the server brought the main course to the table, the aroma that came with it was correct: Not just tomato sauce, but the same simple, smooth puckery one I would have made. No thickeners or sweeteners here. The spaghetti (ziti is available as an alternative) was softened just a touch beyond al dente, which is also what I would have expected back home. The chicken was flattened so that it was little more than a toothsome vessel for crispy breading, just as it should be. A layer of the tangy sauce covered it, sealed in by a bouncy jacket of milky mozzarella.
I wouldn't have minded if the cheese had been browned a hair more, but otherwise, the dish was everything that I hoped it would be. I think it would be perfectly legitimate for the sign at Romano's to include "Mental Health Professionals," alongside "Pizza" and "Cucina Italiana." The cooks are my favorite practitioners, at least.

Currently, every Television celebrity is spending time at home under self-quarantine due to the lockdown announced in the country. With all the shooting for films and TV serials stalled due to the situation in the country, the producers have started re-running old and popular shows. Due to the Coronavirus lockdown currently, as Surbhi’s show, Qubool Hai is among the list of shows that will be re-run on TV. The actress shared how it is very nostalgic because it was her first show.
Television actress Surbhi Jyoti has been winning hearts ever since she marked her debut on the small-screen with show Qubool Hai. Since then, be it her role as Naagin in Ekta Kapoor’s supernatural show or anything else, Surbhi has managed to garner a huge fan base for herself and has turned into a household name. As the show Qubool Hai featuring Surbhi Jyoti and Karan Singh Grover is back on TV, the actress shared how she feels about it. Speaking with Pinkvilla.com, Surbhi shared how it is very nostalgic for her that the show will be re-run as it was her first show and has also been close to her heart.
The Qubool Hai actress said, “It is very nostalgic because it was my first show and it was like a dream for me. It is very close to my heart and I love the show the most just because it was my first but it also happened to be an overnight hit." Surbhi also spoke about how overwhelmed she was when she did the show and mentioned that she did not expect that it will gain so much of love from everyone. Explaining the love Qubool Hai received further, Surbhi added, “you know because I was new and no one knew me back then while Karan Singh Grover was a rage back then, a heartthrob.” The actress also spoke about how the show is a superhit made her who she is today and thanked the entire team for it.
Meanwhile, when asked if she got in touch with producer Gul Khan or Karan or other cast members after hearing the good news, Surbhi said, “Absolutely. Everyone has shared posts and we reshared them as well. I also spoke to Karan, called Gul ma'am and we also did a live chat because we were all very excited since the show has all our hearts." The actress mentioned how she spoke with Karan Singh Grover and producer Gul Khan and did a live chat as well out of excitement.

1987 EG CD-Back Cover of Booklet
Naturally, my original 1982 EG/Warner Bros. vinyl got plenty of turntable time back in the day, but now, like many other vintage LPs in my collection, it remains permanently shelved as a testament to my analog-leaning youth. Thankfully, when upgraded vinyl became available via a half-speed- mastered Virgin/UMC import in 2017 (albeit in a slightly oversized LP sleeve), I snapped it up. If you’re a fan of wax, this will likely be the best Avalon listening experience for you. Honestly, the sheer sophistication of the stereo arrangements on “The Space Between” and “The Main Thing” alone are stunningly majestic in their 180-gram representation.
1999 Virgin Remastered CD
On the CD front, I snatched up the 1987 EG/Warner Bros. disc upon arrival, mostly to have a digital-realm representation—and it’s, er, serviceable at best. I subsequently obtained the 1999 Virgin Remastered CD and the 2012 Virgin CD that’s part of The Complete Studio Recordings box set, but—and none of you will be shocked to read this—the absolute best version of Avalon to listen to is, hands down, the 2003 Virgin 21st Anniversary Edition SACD with a 5.1 offering remixed by the album’s original engineers, Rhett Davies and Bob Clearmountain. (I realize this SACD is hard to find in the marketplace, but it’s wholly worth the hunt and the dosh if you can afford it.)
2003 Virgin Hybrid-Multichannel SACD
In the SACD liner notes, Davies confirmed what I’ve felt all along: “If there was ever an album that cried out for a surround mix, I believe Avalon would be it.” And, as you’ll recall from last issue’s Remaster Class, Clearmountain told me directly Avalon is one of his “two favorite surround mixes of all the ones I’ve worked on.” (Bob Marley’s Legend is the other.) It’s not hard to see why. The channel-shifting richness of Manzanera’s shimmering guitar accents throughout “Avalon,” the resonance of Andy Mackay’s wafting saxophone lines and all the percussion detail in “More Than This,” and the instrumental interplay on “Tara” are worth the price of admission.
2002 The Complete Studio Recordings
When I asked Clearmountain if he’d mix Avalon any differently for Dolby Atmos than what he did on SACD, he immediately shared one key part of his gameplan. “The main thing I found when I went back and relistened to Avalon in 5.1 was I spread Bryan Ferry’s lead vocal across all three front speakers, and I don’t do that so much anymore,” he noted. “Instead, I’d focus it more in the center speaker and use a divergence where there’s a little bit in the left and right so it’s not totally isolated.”
Umm, sign me up for that mix STAT, please! Let’s hope the almighty powers that be at UMe HQ are planning a 40th anniversary deluxe edition of Avalon for 2022 so Clearmountain can do exactly that, and more. Finally, I wholeheartedly echo what Manzanera concluded about listening to Roxy Music in surround: “To me, the 5.1 is the star of the show. If you’re a Roxy fan and you’ve heard these tracks for years, you hear them in a different way. There’s so much to gain.” Never imitated or replicated, Avalon continues to exist in a most welcome sonic vacuum, in full service of our unending listening pleasure.

Patches of the world
Retired firefighter lines station walls with department insignias
November 9, 2022
In his 50-plus years as a volunteer firefighter with the Sweet Home Fire & Ambulance District, Dave Trask, who retired in March, responded to 19,351 fire calls and 11,700 rescue and emergency medical services calls. Nice, solid figures.
But ask him exactly how many patches he's collected from fire departments around the country and world, and he's stumped.
Whatever the number, it's enough to fill an entire wall - and nearly all of a second - at Main Station No. 21.
These patches, which bear unique, locale-specific designs, are typically pinned to the shoulder of a firefighter's unifo...

1998 - Hurricane Mitch, Update 4
23 November 1998
Disease Outbreak Reported
Based on reports from the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), Regional Office for the Americas, WHO
Local WHO offices in the affected countries have been reinforced by technical personnel with a range of specialities, including environmental sanitation, epidemiological surveillance, food hygiene and vaccination. 31 experts have been sent to Honduras, 19 to Nicaragua, 4 to Guatemala, 3 to Belize and 2 to El Salvador.
Nicaragua. The areas most damaged are along the Pacific coast and in the northern part of the country. Until now, 2 362 deaths have been confirmed, 970 persons have disappeared and over 55 000 have been displaced. Major damage has been sustained by the infrastructure (roads, water supply and sanitation systems) and by agricultural production.
Reports of suspected cases of cholera in Matalgalpa and Esteli reflect high levels of water contamination and the difficulties associated with chlorine distribution. In accessible areas, suspected cases of cholera have been managed in a timely fashion by health personnel. Although there is a risk of an epidemic outbreak, the situation has so far been under control. Reports on dengue from Leon, Boaco and Rivas do not differ from the annual averages, however there is probably underreporting of cases in the affected areas.
On 13 November 1998, 16 suspected cases of leptospirosis were reported in Chinandega, in the community of El Viejo: 8 were hospitalized, 5 have died and 3 have received laboratory confirmation. In addition, 1 suspected case has been reported in Matagalpa, 1 in Managua and 1 in Esteli.
Of the 8 areas suffering the greatest problems, communication has been reestablished by road in 5. The 3 others can only be reached by air, thus the quantity of drugs, food and fuel that can be transported there is limited. Many communities remain isolated in all of the affected areas.
Honduras. The country has been severely affected and losses in human lives, infrastructure and agriculture continue to rise. Earlier estimates of deaths and of populations at risk have been exceeded as health teams reach previously isolated areas. Currently 7 000 deaths have been confirmed, 12 000 people have disappeared and over 500 000 were estimated to be living in 938 shelters as of 13 November (down from 800 000 in the first 24 hours after the passage of the hurricane).

DAY Of The Drags 2017 was a bittersweet occasion for family and friends of the late Scott Ribbons. It was the first time back at the track for their cars – the Wat Da? Austin and Dorris The Morris – which have been shed-bound since Scott’s tragic passing from a heart attack last November.
With Scott’s partner Michelle Lynch behind the wheel of her Morris Minor, and his mate Ant Midson peddling the Austin A40 they used to campaign together, a minute’s silence was held for Scott before the cars hit the strip at Day Of The Drags.
As you may recall, Scott Ribbons was the legend that restored Ron Keegan’s classic FJ ute to its former glory and had it on the Street Machine stand at MotorEx 2015.
He was also a great contributor to Australia’s nostalgia drag scene, as evidenced by the Austin and the Morris, which both run 186ci Holdens and are set up for fun.
Ant used the occasion of Day of The Drags to reflect on the times him and “Scoot” had with the A40, from the crazy three-week build to get it running for a Nostalgia Drags meeting in Sydney, to its dragon-slayer moment at the Six-Banger Nats at Warwick.
“We call it Steve Austin, the Six-Million Dollar car, because it cost nothing to build,” Ant said. “We’ve gotten around a bit with it. We took it up to Warwick and ran it in the Six Banger Nationals and actually came home with a trophy, so that was quite funny. Y’know, thousands of dollars’ worth of cars and here’s old Steve Austin showing them up, so it was a good story.”
Even if you never knew Scott, the car will tell you he had a wicked sense of humour. From the port barrel converted into a radiator catch can to the burnt Jim Beam and Coke can used as a coil cover to the 50-year-old au naturale patina – the Austin has got character leaking from every gasket.
“We came out today to campaign the cars again in Scott’s memory and hopefully we’ve done him proud,” said Ant.

Best of both worlds !!!
What a nice small condo!! We really enjoyed our stay there!! First of all, the house was very clean and had everything you can need or think of. The only little thing that bothered us was the bed, it was too small, I wish it was 2 queen beds instead of one queen and one full.
Second, the location was very nice, at the top of a mountain in the middle of a huge forest, and very best part is that it was close to everything we wanted to see in Asheville: blue ridge parkway, downtown Asheville, and also DuPont forest.
Third, Angie is very nice, in the other reviews they talk about cupcakes, for us it was chocolate, what a nice thought!! We didn’t get a chance to meet her but she was very helpful, we called her when’s we arrived because it was dark and we were lost and she helped us find the house, she also checked on us during our stay.
Finally I would recommend this house if you want to visit Asheville, and if you want to stay in a quiet place near the city.
A great place to stay
We really enjoyed staying at this property. We are a family of three and our child is 6. Angie and Dave have done such a nice job with the place. Its quiet, clean, private and very comfortable. The check-in and out was seamless and they were great to work work with. Our recent trip to Asheville was one of our best vacations and the accommodations were an integral part of it. Its a little out-of-town but worked as a great home base to explore things in the city as well as to quickly jump on the Blue Ridge Parkway and explore the area. We definitely want to stay here again!! Things we enjoyed this time; Tropical Gardens Mini Golf (great for a 6 y.o.), Asheville Pinball Museum (excellent), The Local Joint in Fairview, White Duck Taco Shop, Mt Mitchell, Vortex Donuts, NC Arboretum, Funkatorium and more.
This property was perfect!
Some friends and I stayed at this property for two nights. It was very easy to find and extremely clean. We had everything we needed and the location was great! It wasn't a bad drive to downtown Asheville at all and the owner was extremely accommodating. We will definitely go back!
My husband and I stayed here over the Thanksgiving holiday and it was perfect for us. The house is extremely clean and has everything you could ever need for a short stay. I highly recommend this home. The owner was incredibly relaxed and easy to work with.
Artistic, Customized, Immaculate
The owner of the home (who lives on the property in a separate house) was so helpful with things to do in Asheville as well as guiding us to the loft when our GPS wasn't working, she was very patient with us. When we walked into the loft you could tell that someone knew what they were doing when they built and designed it, no wonder, her and her husband are both in the business. Everything, even down to the toilet paper holder and bathroom door handle are made custom and by hand out of repurposed materials, Awesome! Everything you may need is there, even toiletries if you forgot something, a lint roller, a container to chill water in the fridge etc....small things you wouldn't think of. OH and cupcakes! Delicious cupcakes were waiting for us on the kitchen counter. My boyfriend and I will definitely be back!
Family Friendly Cozy yet Modern Getaway -
We had a wonderful stay in the loft. The owners are incredibly kind and helpful. It rained nearly every day of our trip due to El Nino and the hurricaine and Angie was great with providing resources for us with ideas of things to do and places to eat. We had a small child with us, and she provided toys and a kids table, even a baby gate for the stairs! So helpful!! There were lots of DVD's for the rainy days as well. The linens and furniture were of good quality and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals as well. Would happily stay here again!

Radio 4's Today programme has issued a correction on its website and has sent a personal apology to Zaha Hadid following the interview with presenter Sarah Montague yesterday morning, which rapidly turned sour.
The apology, seen by Dezeen, said that Today – which has previously been guest edited by Hadid – had not intended to upset the architect and admitted that the latter section of the interview had been less than ideal.
Montague mistakenly said that there had been 1,200 deaths on Hadid's Al Wakrah stadium project in Qatar for the 2022 Fifa World Cup. This number was based on a report from the International Trade Union Council (ITUC), which referred to deaths of migrant workers across the entire country since it won the bid to host the football event and not to Hadid's project.
An angry Hadid told Montague there had been no deaths on her project and that she should check her facts.
"I have to put you right. There's not a single problem in our stadium in Qatar," said Hadid. "There's no deaths on our site whatsoever."
In a correction issued on its website, the BBC said it hadn't "made clear" the distinction.
"The ITUC's figure of 1,200 construction deaths which was quoted on this programme refers to the whole of Qatar, and not specifically to the main World Cup stadium site," it said.
"We are sorry we didn't make this clear in this morning's interview with Dame Zaha Hadid. We are happy to accept there is no evidence of deaths at the main stadium site."
Following this segment of questioning, Montague turned to the architect's battle to win back the Tokyo 2020 Olympic stadium project. She asked the architect to explain the issues with the project, which Hadid has described as a "scandal" after her competition-winning design was scrapped by the Japanese prime minster.
Hadid and Japanese firm Nikken Sekkei abandoned their attempt to enter a new design and build competition for the project earlier this month after failing to find a construction partner.
But Montague interrupted Hadid's answer, prompting the architect to cut short the interview.
"Don't ask me a question if you can't let me finish it, then I won't say anything," said Hadid.
Hadid had been invited to take part in the programme after she was named the recipient of this year's Royal Institute of British Architects' Royal Gold Medal – making her the first woman to be awarded the medal in her own right.
One Dezeen commenter, Paul B, described the Today interview as "shoddy and sensationalist".
"She's not a politician, she's someone who has just been awarded a very prestigious medal for her architectural achievements and if I were her I'd have felt disappointed and ambushed by the unconstructive tone and line of questioning," he wrote.


Kaizer Chiefs have announced the departure of striker Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana, ending months of speculation regarding the future of the Burundian international.
Amakhosi made a decision on Bimenyimana’s future following speculations about his departure on Wednesday, 16 August 2023.
The striker parted ways with the Soweto giants after one season. He never featured in any game in the new PSL campaign for Chiefs.
“Kaizer Chiefs have come to an agreement with striker, Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana to part ways after one season. We wish him well in his future,”Read the club’s statement.
The Burundian forward played 21 games for Amakhosi across all competitions and managed to score eight goals in the process.
The 25-year-old striker was signed by the Glamour Boys as a free agent in August 2022.
He was previously in the books of Kaysar FC in Kazakhstan, whom he parted company with in July 2022 before signing for Chiefs.
The striker made his debut for Chiefs during their 0-0 draw against AmaZulu in a DStv Premiership clash in September 2022.
His first goals were against SuperSport United, where Chiefs defeated Matsatsantsa 2-1. Bimenyimana scored a brace on the day.
To add to that, Bimenyimana made history by becoming the first Chiefs player in the PSL era to score three goals from the penalties in a league match when Amakhosi got the better of Stellenbosch FC with a 3-1 scoreline in October 2022.
Bimenyimana is now free to join any team of his choice and get his mojo back.

28 Day Repeat Prescribing
A 28 day repeat prescribing interval is recognised by the NHS as making the best possible balance between patient convenience, good medical practice and minimal drug wastage. Prescribing for shorter periods has been widely promoted across England. Research by the National Audit Office in 2007 has shown home and excess medicine stock values for patients prescribed a 28 day supply of a medicine to be one third less than those for patients receiving prescriptions to cover 56 days. In addition, a Bradford University Study concluded that the NHS cost of prescriptions issued for 56 days’ supply is greater than those for 28 days.
From 1st April 2020 the NHS Prescription Charge is £9.35
The NHS prescription charge is a contribution to the NHS; it is not a payment to the surgery or its dispensary and is not related to the cost of your medicines(s).
If you need 4 or more prescriptions in three months or 13 or more prescriptions a year, you could save money with a Prescription Prepayment Certificate.
We actively encourage our patients to consider this as it covers any prescription during this period of time, eg one off antibiotic prescriptions or creams etc. in addition to any regular repeat prescriptions.
Ask a member of the dispensary team for more details or visit www.nhs.uk/healthcosts
Average GP Earnings for 2014-2015
All GP practices are required to declare the mean earnings (e.g. average pay) for GPs working to deliver NHS services to patients at each practice.
The average pay for GPs working at Claverley Medical Practice in the last financial year was £53,905 before tax and National Insurance.
This is for 1 full time GP, 3 part time GPs and 1 locum GP who worked in the practice for more than six months.
All of our patients now have an allocated NAMED GP. This is a national requirement from NHS England. Dr Peter Jones is the named GP for all patients registered with Claverley & Pattingham Surgery. Patients can still choose which GP they see at the surgery.

An Osprey Escapist 30 allows a user to soar on trails, making way to destinations unknown with newfound maneuverability. Hovering and diving like the bird, one covers distance on foot or two wheels, continuously going forward with all cares temporarily locked away and life supplies provided comfortably on one’s back. This pack rides with you in mind; its wanderer enjoying discovery, seeking adventures more than just a walk in the park.
Lighter than a bird, the Escapist Multi-Sport barely registers its 2-pound, 4-ounce (three ounces less for the smaller version), almost half the weight of its raptor namesake. The pack rides lightly on the shoulders with a breathable mesh wrapped over slotted foam. Wearing comfortably on the back is an absolute with the AirScape™ Suspension feature. Instead of heat gathering on the back, building between the pack and your body, a series of mesh-covered foam ridges provide passages for fresh-air circulation.
I’m one of those people who almost exclusively uses a backpack when traveling. I simply prefer carrying my gear on my back rather than dragging it behind me in a piece of luggage, particularly when navigating through a busy airport. Over the years I’ve managed to collect a number of packs in a variety of sizes, which makes each of them useful depending on the length of the trip. Whether it’s a weekend escape to the coast or a month’s long expedition to the Himalaya, I have a pack suitable for the journey.
My favorite pack by far is my trusty Atmos 50 from Osprey. Not only is it comfortable and spacious, but it is also rugged enough to withstand the rigors of the road. It is so good in fact that it has been a constant companion on trips to six different continents. When I heard that Osprey had updated the Atmos with a new model I was eager to discover if they had managed to improve on the already great design or if their tinkering was ultimately detrimental to the product that I already loved. I needn’t have worried one bit.
How to Pack to Climb a Volcano in the Congo
I’m so excited to be traveling with some Kenyan friends to the Democratic Republic of Congo to climb two active volcanoes. We’ll be sleeping on the rim of the 11,380-foot Nyiragongo volcano; to get there means a five-hour hike that starts in lush forest 12 miles outside of the town of Goma, continues in a steady rise over lava fields with a steep incline at the top of the caldera, from where we’ll have an awesome view of the world’s largest lava lake, which glows so brightly that it can be seen from neighboring Rwanda at night. We’re also going to hike the lower slope of Nyamulagira, a volcano that has been erupting from a side fissure since last November.
Some of the gear I’m bringing:
A new Osprey men’s Stratos 24-liter capacity daypack, frame size small. A friend who climbed Kilimanjaro recommended this pack to me because of its sweat-free back netting and overall well-balanced construction; it’s big enough for cameras, a change of dry clothes, water, snacks, and rain gear. I would have bought the women’s version, but it only came in blue and purple—colors you can’t take to countries where there are tsetse flies, because those awful biting bloodsucking creatures are attached to those hues. (Osprey: please think of your African clients!) I’m not using a bigger backpack because there will be porters carrying our tents and cooking equipment.
For runners tackling a life-list race like, say, the Great Wall Marathon, the versatile OSPREY MERIDIAN 22″ ($299) helps you (or at least your gear) arrive intact. The bag wheels along via a retractable handle, or it can strap to your shoulders as a backpack with a supercomfy hipbelt. Once you’re checked into the hotel, you can zip off the daypack, which is roomy enough for a few changes of clothes (with a mesh pocket to stash wet, stinky items). This clever trick also lets the Meridian meet strict airplane carry-on requirements.
Osprey’s latest offering, the Syncro, is essentially a lighter, more streamlined version of their Raptor series packs. Three different capacities are available – 10 (tested), 15 and 20L – and each pack comes in both small/medium and large/XL sizes, which is great for riders at either end of the body spectrum.
Once the correct size is chosen, the pack fits quite comfortably thanks to multiple strap adjustments and padding on both the shoulders and hips. The one weak link is the thin, flimsy and removable waist strap, which seems out of place when compared to the rest of the retention system. And speaking of retention, there’s nothing to keep all the strap ends from flapping around in the wind.
The ski season in the Eastern U.S. was horrifically bad this year. I haven’t seen so many days in the 70-degree range in March for some years.
I’ve warmed up to skiing packed granular conditions for years since there isn’t much choice for east coast skiing. This year was no different. Osprey Packs’ line of Karve packs are designed for a full day of front mountain skiing (and riding) with sidecountry mixed in. The pack accompanied me for plenty of granular runs.
I took out the Osprey Packs Karve 16 for a few days of resort skiing. The conditions were mostly soft and wet in late February and early March but still fun.

Milwaukee-based A.O. Smith Corp. on Monday announced that D. Samuel Karge will lead the company’s newly created water treatment business unit as president.
Karge was previously vice president of sales and marketing at Milwaukee-based Zurn Industries, a subsidiary of Rexnord. He also worked at Pentair Residential Filtration in Milwaukee from 2008 to 2016 and held global marketing and sales positions at GE Water and Process Technologies.
“Sam brings a wealth of global experience in the water treatment and residential water filtration industries to A. O. Smith,” said Kevin Wheeler, A.O. Smith president and chief operating officer. “He is widely known and respected by customers, water associations, and other companies in the industry.”
The new position will give Karge profit and loss responsibility for a business unit that includes A.O. Smith branded water treatment products in North America, the Aquasana line of drinking water solutions and the Hague line of water softening products.
Long known for its water heaters and boilers, A.O. Smith entered the North American water treatment business with the acquisition of Aquasana in 2016. The company followed the deal with the acquisition of Hauge in 2017.
The company is projecting a full year of Hauge sales and an increase in overall volumes will increase North American water treatment sales by 50 percent this year. Hitting the target would give the unit revenues of $85.5 million, up from $57 million last year and $18 million in 2016.
By comparison, A.O. Smith’s entire North American business segment generated $1.9 billion in revenue last year. Water treatment sales in China, where the company has a longer track record in the market, were $177 million in 2017, up from $130 million in 2016.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray the insides of 4 ramekins.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 10 minutes; drain and discard grease. Add onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms; cook and stir until vegetables are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in pizza sauce and simmer until flavors have blended, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese into sausage mixture.
Spoon 1/4 the sausage mixture into each prepared ramekin; top each with 1/4 the remaining mozzarella cheese.
Roll out the crescent roll dough; cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Cover each ramekin with 1/4 the crescent roll dough, wrapping the dough around the edges to seal in the fillings. Arrange the pot pies on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until dough is light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
I selected 3 (hot, mild, and Mediterranean) flavors from the deli counter at our grocery store. This combination adds great flavor, eliminating the need for any seasoning. If you like it spicy, add in crushed pepper or other hot sauce like Frank's(R) Red Hot!
For healthier options, switch the sausage with ground turkey or lean chicken. You will need to add seasoning, such as garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and a hot sauce or crushed pepper to get a more flavorful dish. Omit the cheese and use reduced-fat crescent rolls.

- Can I mix 5w30 and 10w30?
- How do you increase engine oil pressure?
- Which oil is thicker 5w30 or 10w30?
Is 20w50 oil thicker than 10w30?
SAE 20W50 is thicker than 10W30, so it’ll be longer to reach your engine parts during cold start, but the 20W50 could give your engine extra protectiom when it’s heat and being used for long time running.
The sound would be smoother than the 10W30 even you get less responsive on the acceleration..
Is it OK to use 0w20 instead of 5w30?
0w-20 is simply a different viscosity of oil. It won’t be an advantage to your engine if your manufacturer suggests you use 5w-30 and may indeed be a detriment to your engine. 0w-20 may be a recommended oil for certain conditions for your engine and may not be recommended for your engine.
Is 10w40 thicker than 10w30?
The difference between 10W-30 and a 10W-40 is the high temperature viscosity. Obviously, a 10W-40 is thicker than a 10W-30 at high temperature. … Remember that using oil with a viscosity that is too high can result in excessive oil temperature and increased drag.
What oil increases oil pressure?
One way to fix oil pressure in this case is to use a higher-viscosity oil, such as switching from 5W-20 to 10W-30. This slight change in oil viscosity can make up for the increased bearing clearance, increasing oil pressure back to normal.
Is 40 psi oil pressure good?
It could be wear and tear has reduced the oil pressure some but 40psi in this engine is still a vary healthy oil pressure reading.
How do you fix high oil consumption?
While excessive oil consumption can be a costly and timely fix , sometimes there is an easier fix, such as the PCV valve or oil pan gasket. In the case of internal engine parts, like piston rings, unless you’re an experienced DIYer, it may be best to leave this option to the mechanic.
Can you mix 5w30 and 10w40 oil?
As posted above, mixing 5w30 with 10w40 will give you an oil that performs somewhat better in the cold than 10w40, but less good cold than 5w30, and that has a viscosity a bit higher than 5w30 but a bit lower than 10w40. … Mixing different oils will not improve the performance or efficiency of the engine in any way.
What is 20w50 oil used for?
SAE 20w-50 Oil – Conventional & High Mileage A SAE 20W-50 motor oil is typically used in older vehicles or in particularly warm climates. Castrol GTX 20W-50 has been specially formulated to help extend the life of your engine by keeping it free from sludge, even when operating in extremely high temperatures.
Will thicker oil damage my engine?
Not only that, but the engine will waste energy pumping the thicker motor oil, reducing fuel economy. Since thicker oils don’t transfer heat as well as thinner oils, operating temperatures will increase, too, possibly leading to accelerated chemical break down and harmful sludge and deposits.
Will thicker oil reduce oil consumption?
Slightly thicker oil won’t hurt that worn engine, and if your battery is good, it’ll turn over fast. 2. Add two cans (30 ounces) of Alemite CD 2 for Oil Burning, which replaces one quart of the oil you would normally use during an oil change.
What happens if I put 10w40 instead of 5w30?
If you use 10-w-40 instead of 5-w-30 specified by the manufacturer then the viscosity of 10-w-40 used by you will be higher and oil thicker than what is specified during winters. Similarly the oil viscosity will be higher and oil thicker than specified during summers.
What is the difference between SAE 30 oil and 10w30 oil?
SAE 10W30 is an oil that has SAE 10W viscosity(thickness) at low temperatures, and SAE 30 viscosity at high temperatures. The W stands for ‘Winter’. … At operating temperature, there’ll likely be little difference between SAE 30 and SAE 10W30. In theory, they’re the same at high temperature, which is IIRC set at 100C.
Can I mix 5w30 and 10w30?
Mixing different oils will not improve the performance or efficiency of the engine in any way. … 5w30 and 10w30 are both 30 weight oils and the exact same thickness in your engine when it is at operating temperature. The 5w30 is better because it thickens less when cool or cold. Thinner oil gets to the top end faster.
How do you increase engine oil pressure?
There are ways to improve your oil pressure if you are willing to spend some time and have a little mechanical ability.Prepare the car. Open the hood and apply the parking brake. … Drain the oil. … Loosen the oil pan. … Replace the oil pump. … Replace the oil pan. … Add the oil.
Which oil is thicker 5w30 or 10w30?
10w30 is thicker then 5w30 because it has a higher viscosity in low temperatures. The engine oil will flow slower than 5w30 during the cold season. Thicker or higher viscosity metal oil has a better seal compared to low viscosity oil.


The Ukraine - Russia Crisis: The Impact on the US and ChinaVIEW EVENT DETAILS
Beyond the Headlines
Off-the-Record Briefing by Dr. Thomas McNaugher, Security Analyst & Director of Studies, Center for Security Studies, Georgetown University
Tea/Coffee at 5:00 pm
Presentation at 5:30 pm
Close 6:30 pm
As Russian troops surround Ukrainian bases, the tense stand-off between the two countries continues. Hopes for a peaceful solution to the crisis were raised after ministers from the two nations reportedly began 'high level' talks, according to Ukraine's new Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk. These developments are unfolding on the heels of a collision of two world views in Europe and Asia. Russia and China come loaded with historical resentment regarding neighbors and borders, and a willingness to use traditional military instruments of power to secure their rightful place in the world. The US meanwhile brings a strong belief in the power of globalization to solve formerly insoluble problems. Join this off-the-record briefing by a veteran military analyst on the crisis which erupted following the disappearance of former Ukrainian Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych, and how it will impact on the powers of Russia, the US and China.
Dr. Thomas McNaugher is Visiting Professor & Director of Studies at the Center for Security Studies at Georgetown University.

This is a story I tell my class (3yrs-6yrs). We tell stories together and after I tell a story about my dog they will share stories about their pets and adventures.
The story goes like this:
On a warm, sunny, summer day a family sat on their porch eating breakfast. As they admired the beauty all around them and thought it would be a lovely day for a hike so they could explore beauty elsewhere.
The family worked together to fill backpacks with food and water, find hiking boots, and pack the car. The smallest family member was Ginger, a small golden dog with one ear that flipped and one that flopped. Her food, leash, and water dish were also packed for the hike.
Together, the family drove out of the city, along fields of ripening food, and through the golden hills of California to Cache Creek Regional Park. The car was parked and the family piled out, including Ginger. She enthusiastically explored the area around the parking lot and blended in perfectly with the knee-high golden grass that towered over her head. She took special interest in the pungent bathrooms at the trail head.
Backpacks were on, water bottles filled, bladders emptied, the family hit the trail. From the parking lot the trail went down to a creek. Ginger ran down to the creek, leaving a dust trail behind her. She excitedly balanced on a rock and drank from this wild water way, careful to stay dry… because… Ginger. Does. Not. Like. Water.
The family began to cross this wide stream. Some lept and balanced on rocks as they crossed. Some took off their hiking boots and walked through the chilly water, careful not to slip on the algae covered rocks under the water. Ginger sat on the shore, flinching any time someone splashed. Ginger. Does. Not. Like. Water.
People put their socks and boots back on, settled their backpacks, and searched for the continuation of the hiking trail. Ginger began running back and forth along the bank of the creek, looking for a dry path across, she was concerned. The family called to Ginger, but she would not get wet. The family tempted her with treats, but she refused to cross the stream. Finally the family began walking up the trail, away from Ginger. Ginger whined, she barked, she yelped. She did not like water, but she loved her family.
As the family got farther and farther away, Ginger steadied herself. She backed up, and ran full speed toward the water, she lept as far as she could and SPLASH. Ginger kicked her legs and swam across the creek to the side with her family. They cheered when she made it across, and giggled as Ginger shood every drop of water off her fur, from nose to tail. Ginger would do anything for her family… and now she knew it.
The rest of the hike was dry. Ginger was the color of dust and the small white triangle on the top of her head blended into the rest of her dusty coat. The family sang as they hiked, Ginger ran the trail at full speed and chased squirrels when she saw them. Together they shared beef jerky, trail mix, and sandwiches. It was a beautiful day for a hike.
