CHAPEL HILL — Many people who moved to North Carolina in recent decades knew William Friday not from his years as the state's university system president but as the dignified Southern gentleman who hosted a weekly talk show on public television.
"North Carolina People with William Friday" has aired on UNC-TV for 41 years, during which he interviewed more than 2,000 of the state's best writers, educators, athletes, politicians and more. The first episode of the 42nd season, featuring an interview with retired Gen. Hugh Shelton, aired Aug. 3, but no other new shows had been produced.
"We haven't made a determination yet about the future of the program," UNC-TV spokesman Steve Volstad said late Friday. "Although in our internal discussions we agreed that 'North Carolina People' and William Friday are essentially synonymous, and it's hard to imagine it without him."
Friday was as scrupulous about preparing for his TV show as about anything he did.
"I want to know more about the guest than you do as a viewer," he said in an interview last year, as the show neared its 40th anniversary. "I work hard, and I study. When you don't, the program doesn't have much life."
By the time he turned 90, Friday had relinquished many of the public service projects he had worked on over the years, but he wasn't ready to give up "North Carolina People," a project he had grown to love.
"There will come a time when it has to end," Friday said last year. "But I will have viewed it as one of the happiest experiences any man can have."
Friday wanted no part of the show when it was conceived in 1971. Jay Jenkins, special assistant to the university president, wanted to seat four of North Carolina's living governors around a table for a conversation.
John Young, then the station manager for UNC-TV, suggested Friday as a moderator. But Friday didn't know much about television and was afraid of it. After turning down Young a couple of times, Friday finally agreed.
The show went well, and Young suggested that Friday interview former UNC-Chapel Hill chancellor Robert Burton House. That interview taught Friday a lesson.
"Don't ever ask a question that can be answered with a 'yes' or 'no,' " he said.
Friday had prepared 20 questions. Five minutes into the taping, he was already on No. 12, his queries eliciting only "Yep" in response. Then, he asked House to tell a story. The entire tenor of the conversation changed.
Thereupon Friday learned another lesson: "Your job is to listen," he said. "A television show isn't for you. It's for your guests."
Among the well-known people Friday interviewed: actor Andy Griffith, evangelist Billy Graham, novelist Kaye Gibbons, former Sen. Jesse Helms, Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski, stock car racer Richard Petty, TV journalist Charles Kuralt and singer-songwriter James Taylor.
Among the not-so-famous were a boat captain, a quilter, an air-traffic controller, a goat cheese farmer, an antiques appraiser, a gardener, a psychiatrist and an FBI agent.
"It dawned on me that this is a way to build an archival collection of the people who led North Carolina and what they had to say about the issues that bothered them at their particular time in history, " he said. "This state is full of interesting people. All you have to do is reach out to them."
That a university president would host a 30-minute weekly interview program is testament to the role higher education has played in lifting North Carolina from its poor, rural roots.
"I don't know of any other example of a university president using the media in this way," William A. Link, Friday's biographer and a University of Florida history professor, said last year. "The show has been so important in projecting his aura."
That aura was of a statesman and leader whose humility and grace bespoke an earlier age. Friday's interview style was respectful, curious and friendly.
Friday said he learned many journalistic tricks over the years: Don't allow guests to view the taped segment before it airs (they may want to back out) and never provide questions in advance (it makes the show stilted and formal).
There was no editing; Friday rarely found it necessary to retape, cut or add any segment. Shows were taped well in advance, and Friday called his guests the day before to start the conversation.
He acknowledged last year that there probably wouldn't be a 45th anniversary of "North Carolina People" and indicated he would be the first to mourn its demise.
"There's no ego in it for me, " he said. "I do it for the fun of it. It's not that I have to have it. But I treasure it."
Former staff writer Yonat Shimron contributed to this report.

sign its ******* ridiculous
+1 Signed.
Joined up on the forum just to post in this thread. Such a backwards method of handling lag-related gameplay issues is laughable. In all fairness, the game should not, in any way, suppliment any connectivity issues in order to try and balance the game. This is the wrong way to go about solving the issue.
In my honest opinion, it would seem that ideally, the game should actively prevent players with poor connections to the host from connecting in the first place, even if that means reworking the whole lobby system somewhat, or altering the way that game handles matchmaking altogether; If it results in improved playablity for the COD community then I'm all for it.
No to lag compensation, yes to lag prevention.
Signed. I am tired of being punished because my clan members are in colorado and the match making system does not like the distance so when we play together we constantly lag and its killing me around each corner.
Lets get back to COD4 days when the game was enjoyable!
I tried playing earlier, I was constantly getting shot around walls.

Traverse City Record-Eagle
---- — KINGSLEY — New data received by the village of Kingsley reinforces community leaders' strong belief that the bedroom community is ripe for economic growth.
The data, culled by the Traverse City Area Economic Development Corporation, shows Kingsley has stronger purchasing power compared to other northern Michigan communities. Kingsley also has a stronger family base than other regional population centers, and has cheaper real estate prices than other local communities.
Village Manager Mitch Foster is encouraged by the information, and said the village will emphasize an economic development strategy that boosts its village corridor.
"We are focusing on business development and looking to go a little bit deeper with our Downtown Development Authority here," Foster said. "The discussion now is, how can we do this? How can it be done and how was it done elsewhere?"
The Traverse City Area EDC gathered the information about Kingsley's economic demographics as part of a partnership with the village to create an economic development plan. Perhaps the most striking figure in the data is Kingsley's significantly cheaper housing prices compared to Traverse City's. The average list price for a home in Kingsley in 2013 was $128,900, nearly 37 percent lower than Traverse City's average list price of $204,900.
The statistics also showed: Kingsley has the second-youngest average age in Grand Traverse County, at 33; a stronger relative purchasing power than several other northern Michigan communities; and that the community has a strong family base. Kingsley, for example, has the highest percentage of families in the region with children 18 and younger living at home, which translates into economic power and business growth opportunities.
The next two phases of the partnership with the EDC will examine what can be done to attract businesses like upscale restaurants and the arts to the village corridor, and how to better capitalize on the annual Adams Fly Festival. Foster expects to discuss the matter further at a village council meeting in August.
Village President Rodney Bogart also wants to discuss what the village needs to do to offer more community gathering places and how to lure new business to the community's industrial park.
"There is a lot of interest in the community about seeing something happen, and there's a lot of drive to get the township and village to offer incentives to people who want to (bring in new business,)" Bogart said.

An additional detail has been revealed about the situation surrounding a Waltham city government employee recently arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol.
Mayor Jeanette McCarthy, in a Dec. 21 email, said "the employee is not authorized to drive any city vehicle," referring to Mark Casella.
Casella was arrested on Dec. 9 and charged with driving under the influence of alcohol (second offense). He was found unconscious behind the wheel of a truck on Pleasant Street where police later found him, according to police. Police investigated the incident and determined Casella was intoxicated and arrested him. He also failed a field sobriety test, police said.
McCarthy has not specified for which department Casella works.
"Everything else is a personnel issue, which I am not permitted to
comment on," McCarthy wrote.
Attempts to reach Casella have been unsuccessful. A call to the Middlesex County District Attorney's Office for updates on Casella's case went unreturned on Dec. 21.

Pack Contents
The new Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures are ready for action and adventure right out of the box. No Glue. No Paint. Just crack open a box and start playing D&D.
The first expansion, Harbinger, releases in September, giving you access to 80 different characters, villains, and monsters taken straight out of the Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and Monster Manual.
The minis will be randomized, fully assembled, pre-painted, collectable plastic miniatures complete with double-sided stat cards (one side for use with the D&D roleplaying game, the other for fast, head-to-head miniatures combat). You can pick up your D&D minis in two different types of box: Entry Packs and Expansion Packs.
Here's what you'll find when you rip open an Entry Pack (for just $19.95):
When you tear open an Expansion Pack (for only $9.99), you'll get a heaping handful of minis to add to your collection and D&D campaign:
Regardless of which box you're opening, you'll end up with some of the best accessories you can add to your D&D game.
First, there's no grace period between the time you buy the minis and when they actually make it into your D&D game, because they're already assembled, primed, and painted.
Second, because it's an instant collection of gaming accessories referenced right inside your D&D rulebooks. (The Dragoneye expansion, for example, will draw heavily from the Draconomicon and other D&D rulebooks to help you fulfill all of your dragon and dragonkind needs. Look for it in early January of 2004.)
With 80 minis in the Harbinger expansion to start with and 60 more in every expansion after that (with three sets a year), Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures will be a great asset for anyone who uses or wants to use minis in their D&D game.
See photos of the upcoming miniatures in our special preview gallery! Be sure to check regularly for updates.

Customer Ratings:
This a great product. When I stumbled on Paula's site I was desperate I'm 43 and I been struggling with oily skin, black heads and enlarged pores since I hit my 40's. . This is my third order my pimples / blackheads are entirely gone. I get very minimal breakouts during my monthly cycle . My skin glows & my pores shrank this a wonderful product I whole heartedly recommended.
I've been using this for three years now, and am I glad I gave it a try. I've had acne since I was 11, and I'm 45 now. This Clear system is the only thing that has ever worked on my face, neck, chest and back -- my acne is genetic, and it got even worse with middle age. Nothing touched it but this stuff. Also, I get no extra irritation from these products, which is often a concern with other anti-acne products I've tried. I cannot get through the day without this! Thank you so much.
My acne prone skin was hopeless before I tried this system. This stuff is like a miracle in a bottle.
I've only been using this product for 2 weeks and I'm already noticing an improvement. I've been dealing with pretty bad acne since my pregnancy and my daughter is 6 months. I get painful, big, red pimples. It seems like when one clears up another one pops up. I have red marks on my cheeks from where previous acne was that won't go away. Those spots look like they may fade with continued use of this product. I received a free sample from a friend. I wish I could afford a kit!
My daughter gave me an extra trial size extra strength clear system she had. I am 43 years old and have only had problems with acne since my 30's and have tried so many products. NOTHING has worked so quickly and noticeably improved the appearance of my skin. I wasn't embarrassed to go without make up for the 1st time in my adult life. When I ran out of the trial system and went back to the previous product I had, I started breaking out again. I couldn't wait to order the system. :)
the first day i used this i noticed my face was a bit smoother and i've hardly had any breakouts, but after using it for a couple days my face had really intense burning sensations and i have dry flaky patches all over my face. i'm just sticking to the cleanser for now since i'm guessing it's the other 2 causing the burning feeling. i usually don't have sensitive skin, i really hoped this would work for me.
Proactiv, skin iD, dozen of trips to the dermatologist, the list goes on. Nothing could stop my cystic acne. It tore apart my life, completely ruined my confidence. I wouldnt leave my house if I had a breakout and I always had a breakout. Within first 3 days I used Paulas choice, my skin was 100% clear and has been since. This product changed my life forever. I am so grateful that I found it, it literally brings tears to my eyes. Thank you so much.
I have spent hundreds of dollars for many years in an effort to get my acne under control and nothing has worked until I came across this system. Thanks to this, I am now acne free and I only get the occasional hormonal acne during that time of the month and even then, I only get 1 or 2 pimples at the most and they disappear within a few days. This system did it's job so well that I have now moved to the Regular system as my face does not need the extra strength anymore.
LOVE this line - the best combo for my stubborn cystic acne. I have been experimenting (for years) to find something that works for me and I've found it. Usually, 10% BP would be the only thing keeping those huge zits at bay but it would freak the rest of my skin out. (Wrinkles AND zits?? Hello 40?!) Well, I decided to try this combo and it worked wonders. I also use the Resist serum (I found the skin balancing one to turn into little balls under my make up and I didn't like that).
This is the one and only thing that has consistently kept my skin acne free for the past 5 months I've been using it. And it never irritates or stings my face or eyes like many other popular acne kits I've tried. I do wish the products came in bigger sizes. My husband uses it too and so I run out quickly. And I've been trying to reorder but its out of stock for a while now. Maybe an automatic reorder option could help, company can anticipate how many they need in advance and keep better stock
This trio of products is the miracle that I was searching for over the past several years, during which time I was plagued with adult acne (I'm 44). I tried every product line out there: Proactive, Murad, Eminence, Rodan and Fields, Clinique, the list goes on and on. I even went in for expensive spa treatments like eMatrix and photofacial, all to no avail. Then I found PC. This line is keeping my skin clearer and even younger looking than it has in years. I'm so thankful every day!!
At first I was skeptical, since every other acne product (including doctor-prescribed) did absolutely nothing for my skin. My skin wasn't terrible, but at 27 and just coming off birth control, my hormones/skin went crazy. Needless to say, I decided to give Paula's Choice a shot after MTV's The Hill's star Lo Bosworth claimed on Instagram that the Clear system was a "miracle in a bottle." I was also pleasantly surprised with the price. I'm happy to report my skin is finally clear at 28!
I have spent a small fortune on finding the right products for my 13 year old son's skin. He would try one product after the other with no luck in improving his teen acne. He was very self conscience about the appearance of his skin. He even tried a very expensive prescription cream that dried his skin badly. This line is fabulous. He is very happy with how his teen skin responds to the CLEAR system. It is simple and effective. He now finds managing breakouts very easy.
I tried the regular one in travel size but decided to try the extra strength since it didn't work. For some odd reason I started to break out more so I stopped using the toner/exfoliate and just used the cleanser and treatment. Which helped a lot more but definitely didn't stop me breaking out. Im still debating if I should repurchase....
So I've ordered the CLEAR Extra Strength system, and my acne, although has been problematic, was never bad enough to see a dermatologist. X-Out cleared my skin about 70%, but I decided to step up my skin care game and tried out Paula's Choice. Having tough skin, I thought Extra Strength would be good for me. But as it turns out, it is very drying so I only use it once a day, but it has literally cleared my skin completely. It's only been two weeks, but no new break outs since then!
I thought this system was causing an allergic reaction and making my face peel and sting. I was wrong! I experimented some and found that I have a reaction to the combination of benzoyl peroxide and all sunscreens I tried. Once I stopped using the BP product in the morning and going to moisturizer/sunscreen directly from the BHA, it fixed itself immediately. My sister reported the same thing. Give the whole system a chance, but try using the BP only at night if you get a stinging/burning feel.
I started using these 3-steps along with the Skin Balancing Invisible Finish Moisture Gel ~1 week ago, but I am SO happy with the results so far. I'm totally surprised at the improvements in the feel & look of my skin already. My skin was uneven and dull from blemishes and is perking up. ~2 years ago, I started using the CLEAR regular strength system with a RESIST Advanced toner & RESIST moisturizer and honestly don't feel like it did much. I decided to give Extra Strength a try. Glad I did!
I sent an email to customer service because I wasn't sure if I needed the regular strength or extra strength. Not only did they respond in less than 24 hours, they offered to send me a trial size of it for free! Excellent service and excellent product! My new favorite site to buy from
I am a 21 year old female and have suffered from moderate acne since I was about 11 years old. I have been on EVERY product ranging from over the counter to prescriptions both oral and topical medical (Benzaclin, Clindamycin, Epiduo, Doxycycline, etc.) and nothing has ever worked until CLEAR Extra Strength System. I have been using this product both morning and night since December 14th and my acne is almost 100% gone, and the quality of my skin has never been smoother or more radiant. AMAZING.
My mom used to work for this company in Washington state, this is how we started using Paula's Choice products. My skin was always flawless with the occasional breakout due to teenage hormones. I moved out of my parents and stopped using her products...BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE! I started breaking out terribly and my Mom insisted that I use her products again, so I did. All I have to say is that I wish I had never stop using her products, I'm 23 years old and will never use anything else again!
I have never had serious acne issues, but I always seemed to get places where it wouldn't go away. That was, until I tried using this product. All of my acne had disappeared, and my skin looks and feels much healthier! The product has reduced the look of redness and oil on my face. Every other face product I have used have never given me such good results. I would definetely recommend this to anybody! Really great!
I cannot say enough about the Clear System. It has totally transformed my face. My only regret is that I didn't know about it sooner. I never had acne growing up but after college I had many acne issues. I have spent hundreds of dollars on the dermatologist and nothing ever helped - at least not for longer than a week. I broke down and bought a Clarisonic a few months ago and no improvement. I have not had a single breakout since using these products. THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
Around the time of my sister's wedding I was getting terrible Acne under my chin and around my chin. It was terrible after my sister's wedding, my family moved cross country and I began getting cystic acne that was beginning to look like keloid scars which I have history of (super sensitive skin). I tried this and in 2 months my skin is clear of Acne and the redness left from the acne is going away.
So yes shaya w, I can attest that it helped me with my cystic acne.
My 19 year-old son had been suffering from persistent moderate/severe acne since his mid teens. We had been to a few dermatologists who put him on numerous topical medications, all of which irritated his skin and aggravated his acne. I had been a Paula's customer for years so when she came out with the clear system I ordered the extra strength for him. His skin cleared up in less than two weeks and did not irritate his skin or dry it out in the least. He has been using it exclusively ever since.
During my teenage years, I did not have acne. As I grew up, I developed, "adult onset acne." I have been searching for a product that would help me and the scars left behind. There were many functions that I felt embarrassed to attend because of my acne. I have FINALLY found a product that works: Paula's Choice CLEAR Extra Strength Anti-Redness Exfoliating Solution with 2% Salicylic Acid! My co-workers are asking me what I have done to achieve such a "glowing and flawless complexion!" Yay!

Livewell Care of Bass
Thank you for being concerned about Alabama's fisheries resources!
As more anglers fish for pleasure rather than food, many fish are released instead of going into the frying pan. This practice has helped contribute to good fishing in many Alabama lakes even though fishing pressure has increased and fishing gear has greatly improved. Anglers generally believe they are saving fish for another day or another angler when they release their catch. This is not the case when fish die from stress after being released. To understand how stress kills fish, it is easiest to consider stress as something that gradually increases during the capture period until it reaches a point from which the fish cannot recover.
Below are listed several recommendation all aimed at reducing stress on a fish during catch and selective release. These are based on experiences from work on hatcheries, sampling fish in lakes and rivers, and specific studies on fish survival. Proper catch and selective release can allow all of us to protect the sport and the pastime we enjoy so much.
A brochure of the above information is available courtesy of Alabama Power Company. To read more about increasing survival of released bass, see on-line articles at the B.A.S.S. Website or go to Oklahoma's "Fish Care Guidelines for Tournament Directors: Keeping Bass Healthy through the Weigh-in." Alabama would differ from Oklahoma in the use of chemicals other than salt and oxygen. Most commercial fish health chemicals are not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Note: In Alabama, it is illegal to move a bass or other aquatic organism from one public water to another without a permit.

GMC Terrain
stella03 Posts: 1I had a 2008 GMC Acadia and it did this all the time, the dealership could never duplicate the problem, after it happend a few times my braking would get wierd when it would come on. Always went out on it's own after a few minutes, I recorded it being on one time, but they would never do anything about it. Always the same thing stabilitrak light would come on and flash a warning to have it checked. My Acadia even once stalled on me when I went to go thru an intersection. I'm disappointed to read these problems with another GMC vehicle. I don't think i'll purchase one again:(
this first/stabiltrack-message problem is almost certainly an intermittent diagnostic failure of a wheel-speed-sensor. when it's intermittent like that it really is nothing to worry about (my 2005 GM vehicle has done it intermittently for all its 7 years, mostly in hot weather. dealership can never replicate it and often the code is 'cleared' by the time they read the OBD.) if it occurs and concerns you, find a place to safely stop/restart car and restart and it should re-enable the stabiltrak . you can get your own OBD reader tool for $29 and read the detailed code causing the message, if you like.
stalling is another problem altogether, much worse problem. should never happen with a modern automatic transmission vehicle. only occurred once? that might be one time too many for me as a car-buyer. totally unacceptable.
I have the same issues with my 2011 Terrain. I have an appt to take it into the dealership today. Last year it completely stalled on me 3x while leaving a parking garage. I took it in to get serviced and they changed the camshaft and solenoid valves as well.
I still have issues with the loud rattling noise when it starts up and the rough idyling once its in park. The noise is very bad. Friends of mine even commented on it various times.
In addition, while I am stopped at a light or stop sign it feels like it is going to stall out.
When I asked the dealership if they were having any of these issues with Terrains, they said no. So I am trying to be proactive and research on my own. Before purchasing the Terrain I had a Toyota Corolla and went through hell with it to try and get it fixed. I would of never imagined I would be back in the same situation so soon!
Do you happen to have a copy of the video you spoke of? I would love to be able to show the dealership.
Fortunately, I have not had those kind of problems...just BAD gas mileage. I tell everyone I can "Stay away from this vehicle - it is a gas hog!" False advertising - I don't care if EPA says 32 mpg - it doesn't get it.
My Toyota Camry Hybrid gets what the sticker stays - 39-41 mpg.
sportmedia Posts: 1Sorry everyone isn't getting the gas mileage they wanted, but the culprit here in the EPA. It's the EPA who estimates mileage, and the manufacturers simply post that result. Further, if you read below the BIG NUMBERS, you'll see there is actually a broad range of mileage that you can expect to get. Just another gubmint scam.
bishop07 Posts: 1I own a 2010 Terrain have had it since January of 2010. I would like to mention for me in the city of Chicago the fuel consumption has been what is expected I have the 2.4lt. 4cyl. and get an average of 26mpg mix city and hwy and for a long road trip to Nashville got 36 Mpg and that was my calculation not what the car displays. I was very impressed.
Now the problem I do have with the car is that like everyone else I get a rough idle and it has turned off on me a couple of times at red lights.
The cam has been replaced, oil pump, timing belt (chain), and fuel pump. after all that I still get a rough Idle and a rattling sound the dealer told me, that is how that engine should sound. It is louder than any 4 cyl diesel.
Who do I need to talk to for help? It is not normal for a car at 25k miles have this much work done to it.
Good morning bishop07,
I'm sorry to see that your Terrain has a rough idle, and that the different repairs you listed haven't helped to resolve this. If we can check in on this situation with your dealership for you, please send us the following information to email@example.com: your name/Edmunds username, phone and address, the last 8 of your VIN and current mileage, and the name of your involved dealership.
Kind regards,
GM Customer Service
devs1 Posts: 3Appreciate your response. Minor correction to your stats - the dealer drove my car 63 miles and supposedly started it successfully 70 times. They didn't have to drive it anywhere to reproduce this problem. They used my car as a taxi and not for the purpose of replicating the problem I clearly reported. Since picking up my Terrain from this "service" appointment I have been keeping a log of every time I start the car. I record each start whether it is successful or not. From 4/11/2012 through 5/17/2012 I have attempted to start my Terrain 115 times. It failed to start on the first try 26 times. Do you still believe the dealer started the car successfully 70 times in a row? There is a problem and GM has no idea how to fix it. As for escalating the issue, I tried that - I called and wrote to GM. As a response, GM Customer Support closed the file that they opened for me in April. In their world the issue is dead. Now that I have documented 5 weeks of data I will try another GMC dealership. I have little faith it will be corrected - we'll see.
Good morning rtick,
Have you opened a case (71-**********) with our Customer Assistance Center on this as of yet? If not, we'd be happy to look into this further with you if you wanted to send the following information to firstname.lastname@example.com: your name/Edmunds username, phone and address, the last 8 digits of your VIN and current mileage, and the name of your involved dealership.
Kind regards,
GM Customer Service
hi devs1... if dealership does not inspire confidence, it is fine to try another one, but of course can be difficult to travel to a different one sometimes.
a failure-to-start that strands you is a glaring 'drivability problem', so if that's the case then after a certain # of days-in-shop/attempts-to-fix, the vehicle can be administratively lemon-lawed in many states. maybe your state has lemon-law?
either way, i believe the adage 'do not attribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance' and that a well-intentioned 'taxi driver' like the courtesy-driver or parts-driver for the dealership might not notice an occurrence of fail-to-start, especially if started fine with an immediate-retry. a technician specifically looking for starting problems would not make that mistake, however.
btw, are you using the lowest recommended octane? (87 near sea level). premium fuel is harder to ignite by definition - it makes for harder starting, and provides zero benefit for most engines, probably including the terrain's.
tenndriver Posts: 1We bought a 2012 GMC Terrain on August 1, 2012. We love it but the Stabilty Track Service light comes on and stays on after about 10 minutes of driving. We have tried clearing it but it just keeps coming back on. My husband is taking it in to the dealership tomorrow morning. The manual says it is safe to drive but I find this annoying. I hope we can fix this.
jrlkindt Posts: 1I love the 2012 Terrain I've been driving since February. However we've had a teenager problem where I work and I have need of a locking gas cap or locking door to the cap. There is not one made for any year of the Terrain models according to my local service department and we're told there is no after market one that will fit them either, by our local parts dealers. This is a Huge problem for me. As expensive as this vehicle was, a simple lock shouldn't be an obstacle for GMC. When will this problem be addressed?
ray80 Posts: 1,233Stant has not yet updated their web site to include 2012 model but they list two locking gas caps for 2010 and 2011 Terrain (reg and E85, most likely just color of cap differance). You might get your local parts place do do a try before you buy on one of these if they stock them.

Akiyama must not get very sound advice from his people. He's too damn small for 185. He will be cut after this fight. He should have already changed weight classes.
First Chael and now Nate. I dont see this being any easier than Chael and sadly Sexyama is prolly gonna get his walking papers with a loss. The UFC is really trying to get Akiyama to prove something with who they keep matching him up with.

He's been competitive in his losses, fight of the night, and is big for the Asian market.
Though, yes, he is definitely going to lose.
Mehhhh. Not that excited for this fight, but I see Marquardt by sub in the 3rd.
Hope Sexyama wins can't stand Nate
So they're trying to end his nick name Sexyama giving him all these bangers. Too bad for him he's not fighting Chael anymore cause he might actually get a scar fighting Nate.
should be a good one, nate better show up though, akiyama can beat the nate that fought sonnen and okami. i'm smellin upset!
3 fights, 3 FOTN and they are trying to get rid of him by throw him to the wolves on a 2 fight losing street? i dont get it how does he get nate while bisping who beat him gets jorge rivera?
wow I looked up their reaches because for some reason I thought Nate was going to have a couple inches on him but it turns out (according to wikipedia) that Sexyama has a inch advantage on Nate. It might actually be a decent striking match up.
i like this fight way better than akiyama/sonnen. akiyama is coming off 2 losses while chael is coming off the most impressive performance of his career (albeit in a losing effort). marquardt on the other hand is coming off a less than stellar performance so this is the perfect opportunity for him to redeem himself. plus i think akiyama and marquardt's styles match up better. chael was just an overall bad match-up for akiyama.
if nate is smart, he'll brush up on that wrestling of his that we haven't seen in quite some time, but as a spectator, a stand-up battle would be oh so delightful. with that said, i'm going to go on a limb and say akiyama via split decision or even possibly 2nd round stoppage.

Known for dramatic performances as well as subtle, varied recordings, Seattle experimental rock ensemble Midday Veil combines haunting vocals and cosmic synth work with driving, hypnotic rock grooves to produce music that rewards careful listening and defies easy categorization.
The band began in 2008 as a collaboration between Emily Pothast, a vocalist and songwriter who was a visual artist before devoting her attentions to music and David Golightly, an analog synth-head who was deeply influenced by courses led by Karlheinz Stockhausen during his studies in composition and electronic music in Germany. In early 2009, Midday Veil's sound was catalyzed by the addition of guitarist Timm Mason, a prolific multi-instrumentalist obsessed with modular synthesis, musique concrète and Middle Eastern guitar tones. In 2011, the band added Jayson Kochan on bass and Sam Yoder on percussion. Rhythmic duties are currently on the shoulders of Garrett Moore, who replaced original drummer Chris Pollina in 2012, following the recording of The Current.
Midday Veil's 2010 debut studio album Eyes All Around garnered high praise from a handful of tastemakers, however the band's ecstatic improvised cassette releases Subterranean Ritual II (2011) and INTEGRATRON (2012)—recorded in an acoustically perfect wooden dome built with "extraterrestrial guidance" on a magnetic vortex in the Mojave desert—created significant ripples in the experimental underground. Produced by Seattle luminary Randall Dunn (Sunn O))), Master Musicians of Bukkake) and featuring original artwork by Robert Beatty, Midday Veil's follow-up studio LP The Current (2013) harnesses the experimental intensity of these improvised releases with a return to the arena of songcraft.
A strong live act, Midday Veil has toured the Western US regularly since 2009, notably opening for krautrock legends Faust on a Northwest mini tour in 2012. The band completed its first US tour in March-April 2013 with appearances at SXSW, 35 Denton and LA Psych Fest.
"Few contemporary groups with a mind-altering manifesto can boast a figure with the shamanic charisma and lung capacity of a Grace Slick or Renate Knaup. Seattle's Midday Veil are an exception."
- The Wire
"Midday Veil consistently produces some of the best experimental psychedelic music I've ever heard, always bending genres and minds at the same time."
"Midday Veil make music the way this kind of music ought to be made."
"Sensual and mystical...the rhythms of a world gone completely mad for all the right reasons."
"...possess the spirits of the greats of psychedelic rock (Ash Ra Tempel, especially)..."
"Midday Veil have the art and authenticity of good psych rock, with none of the grimy regret of that genre's gummy-headed next day awakening."
"...gorgeousness wrapped up in song..."
"...feels a bit like watching the birth of humanity from space."

The House has voted to block money to implement President Barack Obama's health care law, a victory for Republicans trying to derail the program.
Lawmakers voted to deny the money by a near party-line vote of
Republicans say the health care overhaul, enacted last year, was an overstepping of power by Washington and would hurt the economy.
Democrats say by preventing government agencies from carrying out
the law, Republicans would harm families and help the insurance
The provision was made part of GOP bill cutting federal spending
this year.
In other action, the House voted to block the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating greenhouse gases that scientists say cause global warming. The restriction is opposed by the Obama administration, which is using its regulatory powers to curb
greenhouse gases after global warming legislation collapsed last
It also voted to block federal aid for Planned Parenthood and, separately, to let the Pentagon continue using taxpayer dollars to
sponsor NASCAR race teams.

Sunday, December 19, 2004VALPARAISO (4-4, 0-0 Mid-Con) at WASHINGTON STATE (4-4, 0-0 Pacific-10)
WHEN: Tuesday, December 21, 2004, 9 p.m. CST.
WHERE: Friel Court (11,566), Pullman, Wash.
RADIO: WVUR (95.1-FM, Valparaiso). Andrew Stem and Ken LaVicka broadcasting. Also available on the web at www.valpo.edu/athletics.
TV: None
THE COACHES: Valparaiso is led by Keith Freeman, who is in his 17th season of coaching, and 11th with the Crusaders. He is 308-169 overall and 179-122 at Valpo. Washington State is led by Sherri Murrell, who is 132-131 in her 10th season overall and 12-52 in her 3rd season with the Cougars.
SERIES RECORD: This will be the first meeting all-time between Valparaiso and Washington State.
LAST MEETING: None.
Fresh off of a 72-61 victory over Loyola (Ill.) on Saturday, the Valparaiso Crusaders continue their six-game road trip on Tuesday night as the Brown and Gold travel to the Pacific Northwest to battle the Washington State Cougars.
VALPO AMONG NATION'S BEST TAKING CARE OF THE BASKETBALL: The Crusaders are averaging just 11.4 turnover per game this season, which currently ranks third best in the country in the rankings through December 13. Villanova is the nation's leader turning the ball over just 9.6 times per contest. Following the Loyola (Ill.) game, Valpo's turnover mark has moved up just slightly to 11.5 per game.
DOUBLE TROUBLE: Jenna Stangler leads the team in scoring averaging 16.5 points per game. The senior forward has tallied double-figures in each of her first eight games this season. The double-figure streak was extended to ten straight games including the last two in 2003-2004. She has tallied 20 or more points twice already this year.
SUPER SUB: Lauren Bechtold has filled in well at the starting point guard position the last three games for the Crusaders. The junior has averaged 6.7 assists per game, including a career-high nine against Loyola (Ill.) on Saturday. In addition, she has averaged 9.7 points per game during the span.
SULTAN OF SWATS: Tamra Braun is knocking about every shot she sees away in the early going. She has 16 blocks on the year, and now has 47 for her career, just five rejections shy of moving onto Valpo's top-ten blocked shot list. Her 2.1 blocks per game rank 41st in Division I through games of December 13.
SUPER WOMEN: Four Crusaders logged 37 or minutes of playing time against Loyola (Ill.) on Saturday. Lauren Bechtold (40), Jenna Stangler (39), Jamie Gutowski (38), and Carrie Myers (37) were all called upon to help carry the load as the Brown and Gold had just eight players dressed for the game due to injuries.
WASHINGTON STATE NOTES: Washington State saw its record drop to the .500 mark after a tough 54-53 loss at home to Eastern Washington on Saturday afternoon. The Cougars have alternated wins and losses throughout the first eight games of the season.
Adriane Ferguson leads the way offensively for the Cougars. The sophomore is averaging 13.6 points per game. Kate Benz has added 11.3 points, while Keisha Moore scored 11 points on Saturday in her first action of the season.
Benz is the team's leading rebounder, grabbing 8.5 boards per game. The sophomore is shooting 51.4% from the floor as well.
Washington State is holding teams to just 59.5 points per contest on the season, and have not allowed more than 65 in their last four games. As a team, the Cougars are shooting 36.4% from the floor and 31.8% from outside the arc. They are proficient from the free throw line though, making 73.6% of their attempts on the season.
Washington State is playing its final non-conference tilt of the year, as the Cougars open Pac-10 play on December 27 at home against Arizona State.
