The Kugler Era has finally arrived.UTEP showed a strong offense in this42-35 loss to UNM. Everyone wasnervous about this game setting thetone for the season. The end result wasa loss but it was a hard fought loss that

proved UTEP has a lot of talent andshould be competing with anyone in thenewly changed Conference USA.Coach Kuglers first game as a HeadCoach needs work on defense. Defense

plagued miner teams were a big part of Mike Price's time here. The first game

jitters are gone so lets see how the Min-ers do this weekend against the Aggieson defense.

UTEP was behind much of the game but then finally took the lead 28-21 inthe 4th. Jameill Showers had a greatgame completing 15 out of 20 passes.He also had 119 yards with zero inter-ceptions. Freshmen Aaron Jones fin-ished the game with 127 rushing yards.Both were not enough for a Miner squad trying to gel with what is prettymuch a new team with new leaders.

Both UTEP newcomers are showing promise for a very optimistic season.

The next game for UTEP is againstrival New Mexico state which should

be an easy game. Although NMSUlooks soft, you can never count out ateam at home during a rivalry game.This game will be at this saturday(Sept14th) at 6pm at NMSU. Next week theMiners start conference play against C-USA newcomer UTSA. The roadrun-ners are lead by former University of Miami coach Larry Coker.

What is the average amount of rain we receive for the month ofSeptember (averaged over the last 30 years)? By the way,September is the second wettest month of the year for us.

Weather Trivia:

Doppler" Dave Speelman is the chief meteorologist at KVIA-TV in El Paso. You can watch his forecasts at 4, 5, 6 and 10 pm on ABC-7 (channel 6 cable). If you would like Doppler Dave to address (explain) any

weather issues you can email him at [email protected] .

I'm always amazed at how many of you love cloudy, rainy andcool weather. Actually, I totally understand. We have so manysunny and hot summer days that a change in our weather patternexcites most of us.

As I chatted with many of you this week, the comments were

"thanks for the nice weather, I got so much done around thehouse." I laughed to myself because I too enjoy the change andwhat I can accomplish when the weather cools and the sun hidesbehind the clouds. When it rains around the region and temps stayin the 70s and low 80s, it's always a great time to pullweeds (they come out so easy when the ground is wet) and dosome pre-fall cleaning. I spent Tuesday dusting the blinds (some-thing I should have done last year) but it's ideal to do on thosecloudy-dreary days when the sun is not in full force.

Late September and early October are very interesting times ofthe year for El Paso. It's this time of year where we start to seecold fronts pay us a visit and that results in temperatures droppingfrom the 80s to the 70s and, at times, 60s. We also have enoughmoisture lingering around for the potential of strong to severestorms. It's one of two months during the year that we often wit-ness severe weather with the potential for large hail.

LIFESTYLESForgiveness, Relaxation Provide Health Benefits

Dr. David Lipschitz

Who has not been through periodswhen nothing goes right? Conflicts atwork, conflicts with family, disap-

pointments or actions toward you thatare devastatingly hurtful. The worldseems dark, the sky black, the silver lining almost invisible and the future

bleak.

Not surprisingly, these frequent lifestressors can lead to unhappiness, anx-iety, stress, hopelessness and an inabil-ity to cope. Anger is pervasive,destructive, overwhelming and, on oc-casion, may lead to regrettable actionsthat can cause irrevocable physicaland emotional damage.

An example of a national wound is thedevastating and destructive events of Sept. 11, 2001, that led to the deaths of

2,753 innocent people. The outpour-ing of rage, accompanied by vulnera-

bility and loss of innocence, led to acommitment to bring the guilty to jus-tice and to seek revenge for those so

brutally injured by evil terrorists.

Now 12 years later, we have madegreat strides in bringing those crimi-nals to justice, and terrorist groups are

on the defensive, but the costhas been high with

much collateral dam-age as innocent by-standers at homeand abroad have

been injured andkilled. And the war is far from over.

We are threatened bythe almost certainty of

further attacks andmust remain vigilant

against any potentialthreat.

Whether thewound or insultis individualor national,the accompa-

nyingseething

anger,the con-

tinualgrudge andthe desirefor revengeare harmful,destructive

and a major cause of ill health. If al-lowed to fester, anger and stress canlead to chronic diseases, such as high

blood pressure, heart disease andstroke, a greater risk of turning to un-healthy habits, such as cigarette smok-ing or alcohol abuse or being prone tofits of anger and, sadly, even violence.

Consider that the diagnosis and treat-ment of depression have soared in re-cent years. Approximately 10 percentof Americans and 25 percent of women between 40 and 60 are beingtreated with an antidepressant.

The solution is clear to many experts:We must truly forgive if we are ever tomove forward.

Learn to let go, do not bear a grudge,do not promise to get even, do not letanger consume you, and work towardgenuine forgiveness of those who have

harmed you. And if you have donesomething to hurt or harm another,consider honestly and selflessly askingfor forgiveness and then let go and at-tempt closure.

Forgiveness is not simple and takescontinuous effort; emotional injuriestake years to heal, and even if a rela-tionship seems on the right track, theharm is always there, festering just be-neath the surface. Forgiveness takestime and requires hard work. True for-giveness does not mean that you haveforgotten, but it rather provides a pathto freedom and peace that graduallyheals and evolves, leading to greater trust, an acceptance that redemption is

indeed possible and that life can move

forward.

A critical tool in dealing with anger and stress is learning to seek peace.Relaxation exercises can help reducestress levels and assist in dealing withresentment, anger and emotional suf-fering.

Relaxation is not as simple as saying"I have to relax" or "I need a cigaretteor a glass of wine to help me." It re-quires technique and there's a learningcurve. Relaxation can either be taught

by an expert or developed by listeningto a relaxation tape or, these days, to ameditation app on a smartphone. Mostof these apps are free and providestress-reduction exercises varyingfrom five to 20 minutes.

Most relaxation techniques involvemeditation, breathing exercises andimagery that creates calmness and

peacefulness. A typical app will guide

you to "breathe in" relaxation and

"breathe out" tension, to concentrateon measured breathing and to visual-ize objects and places that make youfeel happier and calmer.

Whether one is truly committing toforgiveness or actively participating instress-reduction techniques, the health

benefits of relaxation exercises r apidly become obvious. Heart rate decreases, blood pressure improves and benefi-cial hormonal changes occur that indi-cate improved well-being.

The message is clear. Forgiveness andseeking peace are essential for better,longer and more productive lives.

Aging." More information is availableat:

Gambling Can BecomeAddictiveDR. WALLACE: My brother and several of his friends watch champi-onship poker every evening. I think they're addicted to that junk. Now theyhave formed a poker club and have about six or seven guys who play poker every Saturday in our basement. They play for money.

I think this is despicable. Gambling is stupid and a waste of time. I also think that it can be addictive. When I tell this to my brother, he tells me that playing

poker is better than doing drugs, dr inking booze or robbing banks. Help! I 'mreally frustrated. Nameless, Crown Point, Ind.

NAMELESS: Playing poker is not as bad as doing drugs, drinking booze or robbing banks, but it's not as good as reading a good book, workingat a part-time job, helping out at a retirement home, exercising, doing yardwork or playing sports. And, indeed, gambling can become addictive.

It's obvious that your parents aren't concerned about this, since the poker partyis in their house. There are times that teens have more sense than parents. Thisis one of those times.

Dr. Robert Wallace welcomes questions from readers. Although he is unableto reply to all of them individually, he will answer as many as possible in this

energY express BY MarilYnn presTon

Everyone should go back toschool in September, not justthe kids. Learning new stuff is

part of a healthy lifestyle, andit's hardwired into us, ever since the first kindergarten classconvened in the caves of Las-caux.

Acquiring new thoughts, learn-ing new things a language,how to fix a flat, why fakefoods are the sucker's choice is how we grow our brains,stimulating whatever is leftafter seven hours of smallscreen media a day.

So here's my back-to-schoolchallenge to you, dear readers:

To begin, sit in a quiet corner no dunce cap allowed and calm your mind. Thoughtswill arise; let them go. Focus onyour breath and stop peeking atyour watch Ask yourself: Whatwould you like to study be-tween now and the end of theyear that would fill a gap, fulfill

a dream, move yourself downthe path to more energy, greater joy and looser jeans?

Keep your eyes closed as youconsider some possibilities.

LEARN TO EAT WELL.Your medical doctor doesn'tknow much about nutrition, so

why should you? I'll tell youwhy. Until you study and un-derstand what it means to nour-

ish your body with real, clean,unprocessed food, you'll be

bamboozled by every fad dietthat comes down the pike.

We're talking billions of dollarsspent on belly fat removalschemes that are insanely unre-liable. It's a scam, a fraud "lose 10 pounds while yousleep!" and still we're sur-rounded by an endless paradeof weight-loss ads that prey on

own collective ignorance. Theyonly serve to feed our desire for a quick fix.

Forget quick fixes. September is a good month to learn your lesson once and for all. End thedrama. Dump your gimmickydiets. Learn to cook and eatmeals that are healthy and deli-cious. For top grades, study la-

bels. Acquire the knowledgethat will guide you. Too manyingredients? Too many suspectadditives? Just say no. And justsay yes to taking a class, goingonline, finding a teacher however you learn best. Allsorts of courses are gettingstarted this month.

LEARN TO LOVE EXER-CISE. Everyone knows that ex-

ercise is a good thing. It in-creases your strength, lifts your spirits and makes your heartstronger, so you can last longer.That's easy. The harder part isfinding a way to love it. Onceyou're hooked on the pleasureof your routine, you won't wantto miss it. And that's how life-long healthy habits are devel-

oped.

So between now and the end of the year, discover new ways to

bring more joy to your routine.If you're bored with running,tired of tennis, soft on swim-ming, shake it up, baby, andswitch to something new.Tango! Tae Kwan Do! Yoga!That's the one that hooked meyears ago and taught me a very

big lesson about what it takes to

stay strong, flexible and well juiced. But don't follow me or anyone else. Be authentic. Findthe mix of physical activity including aerobic sports thatget your juices flowing, your

body glowing and feels like funto you.

LEARN TO MANAGE YOUR TIME. Not having enoughhours in the day is the number one reason people don't exer-cise. It's time to graduate to amore evolved way of thinking.This teaching is from the CarpeDiem School of Timekeepers.Seize the day. Own it. Plan it.See where you have wiggleroom and decide what your pri-orities are. I can only hope that

personal health physical andmental is one of them. If not,

why are you reading this col-umn? If yes, begin to keep acalendar or a daily journal. (Ilike paper, but someday, thatwon't even be an option.)

So look at the week ahead andschedule in your exercise timelike it's a dentist appointment,only better. Plan for a minimum

of 30 minutes, three times a

week. Of course, more is better up to a point but startwhere you are. If you've onlygot 20 minutes, grab it. Whenyou make exercise part of your day, it soon becomes part of your life, and you look for times to schedule it instead of finding excuses to avoid it.

Class dismissed. Go out and

play.ENERGY EXPRESS-O! AGREAT MAN SPEAKETH.

I am always ready to learn, al-though I do not always like

being taught.WinstonChurchill

The full moon in Pisces this week willbe a testament to the power of imagi-nation. If you are naturally imaginativeand have a rich inner world, the Piscesfull moon will invite you to play in thatworld and flesh it out even more vividly. Ifyou don't think of yourself as a creativeperson, consider the words of RalphWaldo Emerson: "Imagination is not a tal-ent of some people, but is the health ofevery person."

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Some sayfear is an invitation to be brave. But whenyou open your invitation, the inside reads:Run! Maybe other people received a dif-ferent invitation, but you should respondto the one you were given, not to theirs.The lesson this week is in heeding yourown internal warning system.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Receiving avery precious and valuable gift can beamazing, but it also has a downside.You're suddenly in charge of protectingand maintaining this gift, as well as beingproperly grateful for it and using it to the

fullest. That can be a lot of pressure. Justbe careful in choosing and asking for whatyou want.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There's muchto accomplish, and you won't be able todo it on your own. Monday sees you as-sembling a kind of informal team. It will be

most productive to surround yourself withpeople who share your values, not yourstrengths. The ideal team is made up ofpeople who have complementary ratherthan identical gifts.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Deals comeand go, and some you'll win, some you'lllose no regrets either way. But yourpersonal life is different. If you're grumpyand unloving, you'll definitely regret it. Thisweek you put a good deal of energy intodoing whatever it takes to put yourself in agenerous, happy mood, especially aroundyour loved ones.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There are thosehardened dealmakers who won't correctthe false assumptions of others if thoseassumptions play to the dealmaker's ad-vantage. You're different. You want thehighest and best for all involved. You won'tbe happy unless everyone gets what'sfair, even if they don't know enough tofight for that.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Someone who

is afraid of making mistakes and being judged isn't going to act in a confident, ef-fective way. That's why you like to take thepressure off of people. You want them tobe at their best around you. Because youstrive to make people feel comfortableand succeed at this, you will be promotedin some way.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The worst hurtsare those that come from an inner percep-tion rather than an outer reality. You'llfocus on your inner world this week, ex-amining the thoughts that lead you tomake your best and worst moves. Thurs-day brings a social breakthrough. Mutualattraction and love will make your heartfull.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There aredifferent schools of thought and numerousstrategies for playing this game called life.You prefer not to think of it as a competi-tive sport this week. You won't like to win ifit means the other team loses. In the daysahead, your game is more like a puzzlethat everyone helps put together.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Beingheard will be more important to you than itusually is this week. You'll take pains toput your unique stamp on things. Just besensitive to the feelings of others; care-fully read their reactions. When you're inunfamiliar territory, you want to leave amark, not a stain.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Thisweek is about exposure. You want to s howthe world who you are, and you want theworld to show you things, too. In exposingyourself to new ideas, people, lifestylesand places, you also could expose your-self to ridicule and rejection but you're

willing to take that risk. And it will pay offfor you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There arepirates in your midst this week, but theywon't be wearing eye patches. You'll knowthem by their tendency to steal and thenbury the treasure instead of investing orspending it. Also, the pirates have "yes"people around them, people who echotheir ideas like shoulder-perched parrots.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The ability tofeel and think deeply is an asset, thoughsome days it doesn't feel like one. Don'tbe excessively concerned with your rela-tionships this week. Putting too much em-phasis on serving the needs of thosearound you will cause you to behave inways that suit the best interests of every-one but you.

THIS WEEK'S BIRTHDAYS: Your impacton the lives of others will be profound asyou make courageous choices this year.Being a bit selfish will help others morethan you would have thought. October

shows you in an exciting competition.You'll study hard in November. In 2014,you'll amass a network of teachers, sup-porters and customers. Family life is sa-cred, and a unique situation among yourkin will be the source of personal growth.The best financial opportunities come inDecember, February and June.

When It Comes to Borrowing,Don't be Ridiculous

Not all debts are created equal, nor is eve ry type of loan haz-ardous to your wealth. There is a world of difference between ahome mortgage and a revolving credit card balance. While bothtypes of debt are liabilities in which a borrower is legally obli-gated to a lender, the first I call intelligent borrowing. The latter isridiculous debt because it is toxic to your financial health andyour life.

Here are the characteristics of intelligent borrowing:

1) The borrower has a safety valve a legally and morallysound alternative to get out of the obligation at any time.

2) The debt is secured. The lender holds something that is at leastas valuable as the amount of the loan. This is called collateral.Think of it as a security deposit for the lender.

3) The loan is for something that has a reasonable life expectancyof more than three years, as opposed to something that will be

down the drain before the bill arrives.4) The loan is for something that will increase in value, unlike acouple of movie tickets, dinner in a fancy restaurant, or a greatnew outfit.

5) The interest rate is reasonable. The best example of intelli-gent borrowing is a home mortgage. Let's see how a home mort-gage measures up to each of these five characteristics of intelligent borrowing

Is there a safety valve or escape route? Yes, there is a way of es-cape for both the borrower and the lender. If you the borrower

find you just can't handle those high payments or you want outfor any other reason at all, you can sell the house and pay thelender. The lender can sell the loan to another lender.

Is the debt collateralized? Yes. With a mortgage, the real estateor house is the collateral the lender's security. The lender has alegal lien on the property until the mortgage is paid in full. If youdo not hold up your end of the bargain, the lender may take the

property as payment for the ou tstanding loan.

Does the purchase have a reasonable life expectancy of more thanthree years? Yes, and this is true not only for the structure itself

but also for the land on which it sits.

Will it increase in value over time? Yes. Real estate is consid-ered an appreciating asset even though specific values may de-cline during economic cycles.

Is the interest rate relatively reasonable? Yes. In nearly all situa-tions, mortgage rates are considerably lower than other types of consumer loans, sometimes by as much as two-thirds.

Ask each of these questions about credit card debt and other kindsof unsecured debt and you will understand why taking it on maynot be intelligent.

As you design your plan to get out of debt, target the toxic debtsfirst. Don't devote money to prepaying your mortgage (paying

more than required to reduce the principal more quickly) if youare carrying toxic debt. Your home mortgage your reasonabledebt should be the last debt you repay.

Don't Repeat DesignHistory: Update It Q: Our "new" house is a Greek

Revival dating to the late l9thcentury. We love the period so elegant and sedate but wedon't want to live in a museum,if you know what I mean. Howcan we decorate to preserve theright flavor and still be in the21st century?

A: First thing, relax. AnyGreek Revival worth itscolumns has such architecturalintegrity that there's little dan-ger you could lose the periodflavor of the house by makingthe wrong decorating decisions.

The trick is to be courageousenough to update enough. Thatis, not add just 21st-centuryconveniences but also express21st-century attitudes. Here's aninspiring example: The diningroom in the photo we showhere is in one of Kansas City's

most treasured homes, theBent-Ward House, dating to thel870s and listed on the NationalRegister of Historic Places.

It was the site of last spring's44th Annual Symphony De-

signers' Showhouse, where de-signer Tam Stone(tam-stone.com) set out, shesays, to modernize while "re-specting the dignity of the oldhouse." Here's how she did it:

Went symmetrical.Formal balance is an earmark of the Greek Revival style, soTam arranged Baker's ma-hogany furniture to create al-

most a mirror image in theroom;

Evoked a surprising,contemporary palette, deep

plum-brown walls in a high-gloss finish, contrasted withsilk draperies in va-va-voomchartreuse. But while the color is totally today, the crisp, for-mal pleating of the draperies isvery old-world traditional;

Used overscaled art."Very much a current trend,"Tam points out. But she ex-

pressed the trend in classic

works of art six Hogarth prints framed in traditional

gold. Hung as a unit betweenthe windows, they make a sin-gle, and singularly modern, de-sign statement;

Juxtaposed high-and-low, heavy-and-light, serious-and-light. "Another modernidea," according to Tam. Casesin point: the faux longhorns, anod to Kansas City's historyand the textured roller shades(Alustra Woven Textures byHunter Douglas, hunterdou-glas.com) hung under those se-riously pleated-silk chartreusedraperies.

"The shades caused a lot of comment from showhouse visi-tors," Tam reports. "They weresurprised that I hadn't put some-thing formal under the formaldraperies. But I wanted theroom to be approachable andcomfortable," she explains. "Iliked the way the light comesthrough woven shades."

Q : How big should a rug be under a dining room table? My aunt hasgiven us an old family table that'slarger than the one we've had for years. When you pull out the chairs,the back feet go off the rug. Is thatOK or do we need a new larger rug?

A : There are many things in thisworld that should never look toosmall or too short. Men's trousers,for one example; pants bottomsshould just break over the shoes.Long curtains should skirt the floor,not end partway down the wall. Andrugs under tables should be suffi-ciently large that the chairs can

push back without falling off therug.

Send your too-small rug to duty in a bedroom and treat yourself to anew, in-proportion rug to go in that

prime spot under your new oldtable.

New Take on an Old Favorite Rose Bennett Gilbert

Q : We went a little crazy over the Country Look and ended upwith a house full of calico andold teddy bears and furniturewith lots of peeling paint. Nowit's 20 years later and we want anew look something morecontemporary but who canafford to start all over? Whatnow?

A : Timing is everything. Half the country went mad for theCountry Look back in the '80s,and no wonder: It's nostalgicand charming, comfortable andeasy to live with.

Also inexpensive, at least in theearly days, and it had a history

ours.

The nation had literally grownup with those calicoes and thatfarmhouse furniture. We couldsense our own past in old quiltsand bent-willow benches. We

could relax around all that im- perfection: peeling paint, rustedmetals, casually mismatched

patterns.

Then, suddenly, it was all too

much! Even Raymond Waites,the mega-designer who's cred-ited with "inventing" the Coun-try Look, soon struck off in anew direction...Continues on

Q : I am thinking of hanging a quilt as ashower curtain in my guest bath. I've used acountry theme in the bedroom next door. Iam just worried because the quilt is kind of heavy for a shower rod. Any suggestions?

A : Yes, I have two.

1. I'm sure you are using a liner to protectyour quilt. So hang it on the shower rodand install a sturdy spring-tension rod tohold the quilt itself.

2. I'm sure you realize you'll be endanger-ing your quilt in two ways, from the in-evitable moisture from the shower, andfrom the stress of being hung. To help easethe latter problem, use a lot of clips to holdthe quilt on the spring-tension rod and peri-odically switch ends to reverse the pres-sure.

Secret to Small-Space Living: Edit! Edit! Edit! Rose Bennett Gilbert

Q : Do you have any advicefor people who live in tinyspaces like me? My studioapartment is just 25 x 30 feet.That's 750 square feet! How doI fit my life into 750 squarefeet? Can you help? You al-ways write about people withhumongous homes!

A : Not true! You must havemissed the two features onsmall-space decorating tipsfrom interior designer JohnBuscarello, who lives and

works in New York City, inar-guably the most space-starvedtown in the U.S. (The articlesare archived at Creators.com.)

New Yorkers scrimp along inrooms that make Harry Potter'sunder-stair digs look almost

palatial. But not everyone com-

plains. Meet design student An-drea Brodfuehrer, who hascalled a 325-square-foot apart-ment home for the past eightyears and now shares it withher husband Pat, who moved inthree years ago.

Andrea also studies at the NewYork School of Interior Designand works at home. Plus, "Wehost dinner parties and enter-tain weekend guests," shevows.

"The key is discipline and self-editing. If something comes in,something must go out. Itmakes life less complicated

our things tend not to over-whelm us," Andrea says.

You're looking at one end of the living room in the photo weshow here. Look closely andsee how one can almost touch

both walls in the tiny space.But thanks to their restraint and proactive de-accessioning pol-

icy (plus the 11-foot ceilings inthe old pre-war building), thecouple's apartment never feelsclaustrophobic, Andrea says.

It nicely "supports their daily

lives." Chairs move around eas-

ily; furniture pieces serve mul-tiple functions: The baker'scabinet, for example, is "partconsole, part desk, part pantry,"she points out.

Much of the Brodfuehrers' fur-niture has been salvaged, either from antique marts or off thecurb ("recycling" is a great

New York sport, even amongthe well-off: The late AlbertHadley, scion of the design in-dustry, was famous for stoppingcabs and racing back to rescuea curbside castaway).

There are also many sourcesfor double-duty furniture and

pieces engineered to make themost of minimum space. One isthe aptly named Resource Fur-niture (www.resourcefurni-ture.com), which offerscutting-edge Italian contempo-

rary design in "transformable"furniture units: beds that folddown over sofas, walls thatslide to reveal storage - thingslike that. And, of course, there'salways the Murphy bed, l00-

plus years old but still the bignews in small-space living(www.murphybed.com).

Dcor Score...Continued from page 4... (somewhere half-way between Tra-ditional American and pure Baroque).

Now comes another designer, long cel-ebrated for his farmhouse style, who isrethinking his signature look in a new

book, "Terry John Woods' FarmhouseModern," due out Oct. 1 from Stewart,Tabori and Chang. You'll find comfortin his words (and inspiration in theworks-of-art photographs by KindraClineff): "Traditional Farmhouse style... remains close to my heart; but I alsonow find myself drawn to the lines of modern and industrial design pieces,"Woods writes in the introduction to the

book.

Heresy? Hardly. Woods is goingthrough the evolution of taste we all

should as we grow up and older. Wediscover new ways to look and live.Our ideas change, and so should our homes. But that doesn't mean you haveto jettison all your old stuff.

Woods orchestrates an intriguing mixof Then and Now. But his most mod-ern statement is about space. It's nowclean and uncluttered. Walls are white;

floors are bare; accessories are spare(but there's still space for the vintage-style teddy bears that made Woods' de-sign fame in the l980s; seeterryjohnwoods.com).

His old treasures are showcased likesculptures. Here's an elegant case in

point: a collection of old-fashionedlacy porcelain looks cool and contem-

porary interspersed with other shapesand shown off, white-on-white, in anunder-stair alcove.

Sitting Pretty on aSectional Sofa

Q : We are redoing our Great Roomand thinking of putting a flat-screenTV over the fireplace. Since we'llmainly be looking in that one direc-tion, it seems logical to arrange all theseats to face the fireplace, but I don'twant the room to look like a movietheater. What kind of furniture do yourecommend? There are five in our family and always the kids' friends,too.

A : Viva the sectional! Seating thatcomes with built-in flexibility will beyour best bet. You can just keepadding sections until you have spaceenough for everybody. Allow a few in-

dependent chairs, too, so when morefriends arrive or you prefer conver-sation to TV everyone can easily

pull into the grouping.

Sectionals lend themselves to cohesivearrangements, carving out a visual

room-within-a-room, especially whenthey're underscored by an area rug.

Note how neatly the cocktail table fitsinto the el of the four-piece sectionalin the photo we show here (starringBernhardt's Brandeis sectional; bern-hardt.com). No matter where a personsits along the length of the piece, it'san easy reach to put down a drink, adish or book on the low table or itsmatching end table.

Another plus: Because sectionals areopen-ended this one includes achaise longue on one end they at-tract more sitters than ordinary three-cushion sofas, in the middle seat of which nobody likes to sit. Peoplewould rather perch on the arms or

back of an old-fashioned sofa thanland in the center seat. Study the

crowd at the next party you attend andyou'll see what I mean. Sitting be-tween two people on a regular sofa canmake you feel you're watching a tennismatch ... left, right, left ...

for Kill TheNoise's

"Roots,"Brillz has

beenon fire.

Withmas-sivehits

like "Swoop,""Bueller" &"Callisto" ft.Etc Etc!

under hisbelt, Brillz isconquering the

world via his new LP entitled"TWONK" which was re-leased this past spring.

He is highly regardedas one ofthe mostforwardthinking

produc-ers inthis

thing called Trap, but is notlimited to the genre. Trackslike Buckwild, Smashi Tup,Callisto & WTF give youthose classic Brillz clubbangers while tracks like OldSchool & Pump The Beatoffer his take on New Jack Swing. He smooths it out onDeja Vu with what Crazecalls "Moments in Love2013." One of the stand outtracks is RVTCHET BITCH, ahard knocking swingy mon-ster that's already slaying thedance floor!

Ultimately, Brillz' monikersums him up in one word.

CATCH A FALLING FUR Shedding in the fall can be

just as bad as in the spring By Dr. Marty Beckerand Gina SpadaforiUniversal Uclick

A s the days grow shorter and the nights grow cooler, youmay be observing somethingthat seems rather odd for a

body preparing for winter: Your dog is shedding more thanusual.Be reassured: Its per-fectly normal.

Dogs typically losetheir winter coat in the spring,when it is replaced by a shorter,lighter one for summer. In thefall, this cycle is reversed, asthe summer coat is shed tomake room for heavy protective

fur for winter. The change ismost obvious in double-coated breeds, such as collies,shelties and keeshonden. Those

breeds carry not only a har sh, protective, long overcoat, butalso a soft, insulating undercoat

and they lose masses of fur from both in spring and fall.

The amount of shed-ding varies widely from breedto breed. German shepherds,for example, are prolific year-

round shedders, while poodlesseem to lose little fur at all.Many shorthaired dogs actuallymay shed more than the long-hairs, but since the hair theyshed is easily overlooked, itmay seem as if they are shed-ding less.

All shedders eventhe heaviest can be tamed bya regular and frequent scheduleof bathing, combing and brush-ing. After all, the fur you grabwhile grooming your pet wontend up on rugs or furniture.

If you have a pure-

bred dog, or one that has thecharacteristics of a purebred,ask a breeder for grooming ad-

vice, especially in regard to the proper kind of groomingequipment. Theslicker brush thatworks fine ona poodle

wont make much headway inthe thick mane of a full-coatedcollie at the height of a seasonal

shed. For a shorthaired dog, acurry comb or hound glovewill do the job well,

catching the shortfur before it

landselse-

where. No matter what the

breed, shedding and heavyseasonal shedding is normal,

but some heavy shedding can be a sign of health problems.Skin allergies, hormonal abnor-malities and skin parasites maytrigger shedding, and poor nu-trition can also be a cause of

coat problems.Become familiar with

your pets normal pattern of shedding, and ask your veteri-narian for advice if the coatscondition seems to dull or if you notice excessive overallhair loss or areas of completehair loss.

Other fallpet-care tips:

Cold-weather cautions. Assess

your pets condition, age, levelof exercise and weight, andmake adjustments for the cold.In general, pets who live mostlyindoors need less food (to offseta decrease in activity), and petswho spend more time outdoorsneed more (keeping warm re-quires energy, and food is thefuel). Dont forget shelter, andmake sure your pet always hasaccess to water that isnt

frozen. Outside or in, heated beds are a good idea, too, andthere are many models tochoose from at pet-supply out-lets.

Special care for older animals.

Cold weather is especiallytough on older pets. For elderlyanimals, its not ridiculous tohelp out by putting a sweater onthem when they go outside.Pet-supply outlets have a wideselection, or fashion your ownfrom thrift-store childrenswear.

Some shorthaired dogs actually shed more because of their hairs growth patterns, but longer-haired dogs seem to cover the furniture faster.

Jeff Burton sees changing of the Sprint Cup guard with young drivers coming upThe news last week that Jeff Burton wouldnt be back nextyear as driver of the No. 31Chevrolet at Richard ChildressRacing is a sign that a signifi-cant changing of the guard isunderway in NASCAR.

Burton said hed still

like to continue to race in 2014, but acknowledged that his bestopportunities likely are withyounger teams trying to buildtheir way into powerhouses likeRCR and Roush Fenway Rac-ing, the two teams where Bur-ton has spent the majority of his career. And theres specula-tion that Burton is a candidateto be a TV commentator when

NBC returns to the NASCAR scene in 2015.

Burton, 46, got thelast of his 21 career Cup victo-ries in 2008 and has just twotop-five finishes in each of the

past three seasons, includingthis year, to date.

A week ago, it wasannounced that A.J. All-

mendinger would replaceBobby Labonte as the full-timedriver of the No. 47 Toyota atJTG Daugherty Racing, leavingLabonte out of a ride.

Labonte, 49, has achampionship and 23 career Cup wins, but none since 2003,

and hes had only one top-fivefinish since 2009.

Labontes brother,Terry, a two-time champion andwinner of 22 Cup races, has runa limited schedule since 2004and hasnt won since 2003. BillElliott, the 1988 Cup championand a 44-time winner, hasntannounced his retirement, buthe only ran two races last year and hasnt entered a race thisseason.

Even Mark Martinsfuture is uncertain. The 54-year-old driver has been shar-ing a ride in the No. 55 Toyotaat Michael Waltrip Racing withBrian Vickers and team owner Michael Waltrip, but his lastwin was in 2009 and he has just

one top-five finish in 19 startsthis season.

Burton said on a tele-conference last week that hes

been thinking about why hehasnt been able to achieve thesame success as his teammate

Kevin Harvick, who is a con-sistent top-10 driver and a partof this years Chase for theSprint Cup.

Whats been diffi-cult for me is why is it that[Harvicks team] can run theway they run and we havent

been able to keep step, Burton

said. Thats been difficult for not only me, but the wholeRCR company, because over the last two years, theyve beenthe only team thats made theChase.

Burton, like a lot of

aging drivers, doesnt believe birthdays are a factor.

I dont believe that a48-year-old stands less chancethan a 28-year-old, he said. If someone can show me why,emotionally, physically, whathappens at 48 that wouldntallow you to drive a race car as

fast as a guy thats 28, Immore than willing to listen. ButI dont understand it.

So I think it has todo more with desire and dedi-cation.

What Burton does see

clearly is a changing of theSprint Cup guard, and he seemsOK with that.

Were on the begin-ning edge of seeing a lot of newdrivers coming into this sport,he said. Im 46 years old, andIm one of those guys thateverybody wants my seat, but

its time. Its time for us to havesome new drivers come in. Wereally havent had a lot of newdrivers coming in to the Cupseries or even into the Nation-wide or Trucks.

He mentioned up-and-comers like Ryan Blaney,

Kyle Larson, Kyle Benjamin, brothers Ty and Austin Dillon,his nephew Jeb Burton andBurtons own son Harrison,who is already winning LateModel races at the tender age of 12.

Youve got just somany young drivers that aregoing to really have a place inthis sport, and our sport needsyoung drivers; it needs new

blood, he said. The tides gotto run in, and its got to run out,right? And with that new tidecomes new stuff. Its time. Its

been a long time since wehavent had a crop of youngdrivers. Its exciting to seethem come in. It really is.

Unique Hyundai Veloster gets a boost of power.By Christopher A Randazzo


33/35

Even though the HyundaiVeloster has been out almosttwo years now, it still attractslooks and stares wherever itgoes. The little hatchback withits quirky styling, three doors

and weird name has been agreat alternative to regular economy cars. But if youwanted a little more velocityfrom the Veloster, well, youstill had to look elsewhere.Well, not anymore as for 2013Hyundai now offers theVeloster Turbo.

The Veloster Turbo gets a boostof 63 horsepower and 72

pound-feet of torque thanks to

an intercooled twin-scroll turbocharger bolted on to the same1.6 liter four-cylinder engine.Total power is now at 201 hpand 195 lb-ft of torque. Thestandard transmission is a six-speed manual gearbox while asix-speed automatic is optional.If you felt the regular engine

was adequate for the Veloster, itcarries on this year unchanged

at 138 hp and 132 lb-ft of torque.

The Veloster continues to be acar unlike any other on the roadtoday. It all starts with thosesleek, spunky, aggressive lines

a brave interpretation of ahatchback. But take a walk

around the Veloster and fromthe drivers side you might take

it for being a two-door, yetfrom the passenger side youwill see it as a four-door. Thats

because Hyundai went with anasymmetrical three-door layoutwith the Veloster. And we ar etalking three real doors a longcoupe-like door on the driversside and two smaller sedan-like

doors on the passenger side.

The idea works well. All pas-sengers are encouraged to enter the Veloster from the passenger side. The back doors handle ismounted high in the C-pillar,

but its easy to find and enter-ing the Velosters back seat be-comes a piece of cake.

The Veloster Turbo gets aslightly flashier exterior thanks to a body kit, rear dif-fuser and slick round center-mounted exhaust tips.

Once inside, you quickly learnthat the Veloster is strictly for

just four the back seat isonly meant for two (and thesmaller those two are - the bet-ter). The front seats are nicelydone providing good supportto hold you in while corneringor for comfort on long roadtrips.

Hyundai did a great job carry-ing over the same sci-fi exterior styling into the interior. It looksand feels good for a car in thisclass and all the controls are

nicely laid out and easy to man-age. I strongly recommend theUltimate Package that my tester came with. With it, the Veloster is equipped with a hugePanoramic sunroof, navigationsystem with rearview camera,

backup warning sensors andstickier rubber for those 18wheels.

While the base Veloster feelslike it can barely get out of its

own way, the Veloster Turboremedies that qu ickly. Torqueand acceleration are bothstronger and more accessiblethanks to the turbocharger mak-ing 18 psi of boost.

But while the Turbos increasein power makes the Veloster more livable, dont go thinkingit will take on Mazdaspeed 3s,Volkswagen GTIs or evenFords new Focus ST. TheVeloster Turbo is no where near those in terms of performance.

Speaking of performance, theVeloster Turbo still delivers re-spectable fuel economy, man-aging to get 24 mpg in townand 35 mpg on the highway.

Its fair to say that with theTurbo, Hyundai has made theVeloster more livable and

sporty without turning theVeloster into a sports car. So if the lack of power is all thatheld you back from picking upa Veloster, the Veloster Turbo iswaiting.
