|carbon dioxide
|Also called: carbonic-acid gas a colourless odourless incombustible gas present in the atmosphere and formed during respiration, the decomposition and combustion of organic compounds, and in the reaction of acids with carbonates: used in carbonated drinks, fire extinguishers, and as dry ice for refrigeration. Formula: CO2
carbon dioxide n.
A colorless, odorless, incombustible gas formed during respiration, combustion, and organic decomposition and used in inert atmospheres, fire extinguishers, and aerosols.
|carbon dioxide
A colorless, odorless gas that is present in the atmosphere and is formed when any fuel containing carbon is burned. It is breathed out of an animal's lungs during respiration, is produced by the decay of organic matter, and is used by plants in photosynthesis. carbon dioxide is also used in refrigeration, fire extinguishers, and carbonated drinks. Chemical formula: CO2.
A compound made up of molecules containing one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.
Note: Carbon dioxide is normally found as a gas that is breathed out by animals and absorbed by green plants. The plants, in turn, return oxygen to the atmosphere. (See carbon cycle and respiration.)
Note: Carbon dioxide is also given off in the burning of fossil fuels (see greenhouse effect).

Negotiating Class B Airspace
Airspace is actually classified into several classes, and one of these is Class B. The B tag here is very accurate, and is meant to stand for "big." That is a fact, because Class B is indeed the biggest airspace there is for any pilot to navigate. Even if it is big, it is actually very crowded as majority of the world's traffic fly through Class B airspace. Thus, for a pilot, it is important to understand Class B airspace as it can help him navigate this sector of aerial territory effectively and safely since both large and small aircraft are found in Class B.
Now, Class B is a strictly regulated airspace due to the amount of traffic that goes back and forth in it. This means that pilots need to meet certain requirements before they can enter into class B airspace this make the area safe for you and the other pilots operating in it. You don't want to accidentally bump into the flight path of a big Boeing 747, do you?
One of the requirements in order to qualify flying into Class B is: flight clearance! With the congested nature of such an airspace, a pilot needs to receive flight clearance from the controller first. Getting flight clearance means hearinf the magic words "cleared into class bravo airspace".
Second, your aircraft must have the necessary equipment for flying into Class B airspace. One that we've already touched on is a two-way radio to enable smooth communication with the controller: you need to maintain constant communication with the controller in order to receive timely notifications. These notifications will be necessary to avoid other aircraft along with other safety alerts. Second, pilots flying into class B airspace must have a Mode C Transponder. The Mode C transponder allows the controller to keep track of your altitude.
Flying in Class B can be stressful but when you meet the requirements and are operating within your personal minimums. Navigating the airspace will be a breeze.

Liam Bailey Radio
Falling into the same "male Amy Winehouse" category as Nate James, Bryn Christopher, and Leon Jean-Marie, soulful singer/songwriter Liam Bailey has more right to the label than most after being discovered by the Back to Black songstress herself. Born in Nottingham in 1983 to an English mother and Jamaican father, Bailey grew up listening to his parents' Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder, and Jimi Hendrix record collection. As a member of hip-hop collective 1st Blood, who were briefly signed to Tricky's now defunct Brownpunk label, he appeared on the album Eat Defeat by Bloodleech and recorded an LP, There Were Wolves, as one quarter of short-lived folk outfit the Accidental in 2008. After moving to London to carve out a solo career, his emotive and heartfelt brand of acoustic guitar-driven soul soon attracted the attention of Winehouse, who tracked him down after hearing one of his tracks through a mutual friend. In addition to teen singer Dionne Bromfield, Bailey became the second artist to sign to her Lioness Records imprint and released two EPs through the label, 2AM Rough Tracks and So Down, Cold, in 2010. While working with her producer Salaam Remi on his debut album, he supported Ellie Goulding on her U.K. tour and provided vocals for Chase & Status' Loleatta Holloway-sampling number four hit "Blind Faith." After signing to Polydor Records, he released his debut single, "You Better Love Me," and its parent album, Out of the Shadows, in 2011. ~ Jon O'BrienPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

Acclimating Indoor Cacti to the Outdoors
For those who do not have the luxury of keeping their cactus collection outdoors all year round, spring is usually the time when we put our plants outdoors. We all want to take advantage of the growth spurt we get from the strong summer sun and heat. The sun helps put on growth and wakes up the plant's immune system. And cacti will also benefit from the increased fresh air exchange that occurs outside. But if you do not properly acclimate your cacti, it can ruin their aesthetic appeal. And for serious collectors, that can potentially mean hundreds or even thousands of dollars in cacti damaged.Read the rest of this entry »

Summary | Excerpt | Reading Guide | Reviews | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
A heartstrong story of family and romance, tribulation and tenacity, set on the High Plains east of Denver.
In the small town of Holt, Colorado, a high school teacher is confronted with raising his two boys alone after their mother retreats first to the bedroom, then altogether. A teenage girl -- her father long since disappeared, her mother unwilling to have her in the house -- is pregnant, alone herself, with nowhere to go. And out in the country, two brothers, elderly bachelors, work the family homestead, the only world they've ever known.
From these unsettled lives emerges a vision of life, and of the town and landscape that bind them together -- their fates somehow overcoming the powerful circumstances of place and station, their confusion, curiosity, dignity and humor intact and resonant. As the milieu widens to embrace fully four generations, Kent Haruf displays an emotional and aesthetic authority to rival the past masters of a classic American tradition.
Utterly true to the rhythms and patterns of life, Plainsong is a novel to care about, believe in, and learn from.
Here was this man Tom Guthrie in Holt standing at the back window in the kitchen of his house smoking cigarettes and looking out over the back lot where the sun was just coming up. When the sun reached the top of the windmill, for a while he watched what it was doing, that increased reddening of sunrise along the steel blades and the tail vane above the wooden platform. After a time he put out the cigarette and went upstairs and walked past the closed door behind which she lay in bed in the darkened guest room sleeping or not and went down the hall to the glassy room over the kitchen where the two boys were.
The room was an old sleeping porch with uncurtained windows on three sides, airy-looking and open, with a pinewood floor. Across the way they were still asleep, together in the same bed under the north windows, cuddled up, although it was still early fall and not yet cold. They had been sleeping in the same bed for the past month and now the older boy had ...

Father Tim, retires. However, new challenges and adventures await when he agrees to serve as interim minister of a small church on Whitecap Island.
Jeannette Walls's memoir The Glass Castle was "nothing short of spectacular" (Entertainment Weekly). Now, in Half Broke Horses, she brings us the story of her grandmother, told in a first-person voice that is authentic, irresistible, and triumphant.

Re: MW3 Double XPtallowby Feb 7, 2012 6:11 AM (in response to FimrerFilly)
Does someone have a tissue?
Re: MW3 Double XPXxGUNM4N Feb 7, 2012 6:13 AM (in response to FimrerFilly)
So are we talking about double xp or dlc for previous games? I don't mind double xp. And good for you, its easy to rank for you.
If you would stop posting it would help this board being filled with "mindless monkies"
Re: MW3 Double XPFimrerFilly Feb 7, 2012 6:17 AM (in response to FimrerFilly)
It's easy to rank for everyone, especially with Infected now. I understand not everyone is going to be amazing at the game but it's called a learning curve for a reason.
Re: MW3 Double XPobzi Feb 7, 2012 6:46 AM (in response to FimrerFilly)
I do agree with the point it is too easy to rank up, I'd like to see everyone being forced into using a whole range of guns, perks, etc before they can move beyond a certain ranks as well as unlocking new guns. I also would like to see forced Prestige, you hit 80 and then you Prestige automatically, allowing people sit on 80 with everything to hand and unlocked just doesn't make sense.
Re: MW3 Double XPSantaAnaSlim Feb 7, 2012 7:08 AM (in response to obzi)
I think you're missing the point of PRESTIGE. It wouldn't be prestige if you automatically did it... it would just be Level 81. The point is to give up everything to show that you're a bad-ass (or something to that effect).
I have to admit, I do like the requirements to level idea. Rather then just points, you need complete certain tasks.
Get 500 kills with a sniper, Get 500 kills with a certain perk, etc....THAT would make prestiging more prestigious. To have to grind through some really bad weapons in order to level would make losing everything more of sacrifice.
Re: MW3 Double XPscolia5044 Feb 7, 2012 9:07 AM (in response to obzi)
well actually trying too finish different challenges is a reason too stay at level 80
Re: MW3 Double XPCowboySr Feb 7, 2012 7:17 AM (in response to FimrerFilly)
Someone missed their Ritalin this morning.
Re: MW3 Double XPspkTKay Feb 7, 2012 9:00 AM (in response to CowboySr)
I don´t think that it´s too easy, the usual gamer takes many months to reach prest 10 so where is the point?
What I hate much more is that people, that boosted, bug used and much more in old titles like mw 2 or bo STILL benefit (through the many prestige tokens they get )from the crime they did to the online community.
At the end of the day I can live with that, there will always be some little cheating ***holes

Rated 4.2 out of 5�by 42 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5�by Jr Good if u just want to cover the knee Good coverage of the knee itself, but doesn't go very far down the leg. May 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Adidas Guy Adidas logo doesn't appear on product Misleading product. I got these knee pads that were supposed to be from Adidas; however, their logo doesn't come anywhere around the pad. It's completely missing. May 25, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Sean1211 It is okay. This is a one-size-fits-all sliding pad. The padding and flexability seem to be pretty good, but the fit is rather tight and constricting. The top of the sleeve tends to roll down on a person with larger thighs. Overall this will do the job it was intended for. May 21, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by Wander DOES NOT get the job done! The cushion is great for kneeling, but this is not for baseball...!! I have it for quite a while already and every single time I slide head first I end up peeling of the skin on my knee cap.... ! I have yet to find a decent sliding knee pad!!! May 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by slider knee slider Great product and highly recommend for junior softball players April 22, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5�by Knee pad Knee pad The item I purchased (knee pad) is missing the brand name. November 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by McAik Quality Good quality product. Purchased it for my son who is in the band. He has to kneel on asphalt while rehearsing for one of his songs. September 26, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5�by LB21 High Quality product but size is deceiving I am a very loyal to the adidas brand and this product has very high quality. My only complaint is that in the picture I believe it looks longer than it is. I slide frequently and to avoid additional injuries I look for something that can cover my knee and calf. This product does not. Other than that, it is high quality and holds up very well. Thank you August 23, 2013

DES PERES, Missouri – Some people are calling for a doctor at a Missouri hospital to be fired after claiming she violated a patient's confidentiality on Facebook.
Dr. Amy Dunbar, an OB/GYN, wrote a post on Facebook about a patient who showed up late for an appointment. The post read "May I show up late for her delivery?" The words garnered a lot of angry comments from those who felt she violated the patient's privacy.
The hospital posted a response to the angry comments on its "Mom's To Be" Facebook page, saying Dunbar's words were inappropriate. The hospital says it is reviewing the comments to see if they violate privacy rules.
The post does not reveal specific patient information, but does discuss some personal patient history.
Regarding punishment, the hospital said its physician leadership has spoken to Dr. Dunbar.

Most people (Since the very beginning of classical music including Mozart, Bach and everybody else you can think of) takes a "Dance" or a popular style of Drum beat we'll say (it's more than that but we're gonna keep it simple) let's say a classical composer would say "I think I'll make a Gavotte today" where a modern composer might say "I think I'll make a Trap Beat today".
The rhythm of the melody will have some sort of relation to the rhythm of the Drum Beat and that's pretty much how the rhythm is picked. Sometimes there are specific rhythms that a melody in a certain style is "allowed" (actually "commonly" is probably a better word but I wanted to get the point across in terms of beginning producers) to have.
You just learn this for each style by listening to a bunch of melodies in that style. If you "remake" or "transcribe" (as we old Jazz and old school Arrangers used to say) a beat this will help with this a lot. In fact, not sure there's a faster way to learn it.
So we have a rhythm and we need a repeating chord progression. A common way to do this is change chords every two beats or every measure and start with the chord that is the key.
So if we are in Am a very common thing (but not the only thing you can do by any means) is to start with Am. This is called the "Tonic" or "home" chord. It sounds like the song is starting or ending when you play this chord.
Then we typically play some type of "Sub dominant" chord. The simple version would be to play Dm but we can play any of the chord in that key that has two notes in common with Dm. (If you don't know what these symbols mean there is a chart that is referenced in the front page that lists the notes in these chords and FL makes it really easy to drop these chords in with the chord tool).
Then we typically play a "Dominant" chord, a chord with the most tension that demands resolution in the key in this case E7 let's say. Now we have a chord progression.
This is just a typical pattern and I could write page upon page just on this subject but we'll keep it simple and just say we picked these chords cause they "sounded good" and leave it at that even though there is a theory that "Describes" why these chords are picked so much. We need to play them in some type of rhythm so I'll say two beats of Am two beats of Dm and four beats of E7. One type of notation to write this would be || Am / Dm / | E7 / / / || Now you might ask "why all this time on chord progressions when I asked about melodies"... we are going to answer that question right now.
Using this stuff to pick notes for melody:
The rhythm of the notes that we "pick" for my melody will fit the rhythm pattern of common music styles and the actual notes we pick will have long notes that are from the chord that are being played "under them". So let's make a real simple melody for our chord progression... We'll play... A, D, E . So two beats of a note called A, two beats of a note called D and four beats of a note called E. We can easily see why this sounds good. It is the roots of the chords. Since we are playing notes of the chords each note will always sound good. That's how we pick notes that sound good...
What? OK, fine that is a little simple. Um, how about two beats of C, two beats of F and four beats of G#? These are the "thirds" of the chords and will sound like they have a little more tension.
Want more choices? How about two beats of E, two beats of A and two beats of B. These are the fifths of the chords and they sound a little less "tense" than playing the thirds but not as "plain" as playing the roots all the time. As you have probably guessed by now, you can mix and match these.
This idea of "tension" (we call it "Inside" for less and "Outside" for more in the Jazz world) is very important is when we get into scales (or "passing tones" = notes not in the chords or scales) we use how much "tension" we want to decide on the note we will play.
Scale Tones and Non Scale Tones as it relates to melodies:
So in our case our progression is in the key of A Minor. So our scale is A Minor. So we can use the scale A B C D E F G A. And if I want to play the rhythms in between the changing of the chords I can use other notes from the scale to do that. So if I play A for two beats D for two beats and E for two beats I can "make up" a way to use other notes in the key to get to a chord tone when the chord is changing and use chord tones on "Strong Beats" (beats 1 and 3 in the time signature 4/4) so that my melody sounds "good".
We don't want to "hang" on a non chord tone too long in your melody and you can very, very quickly play notes that are not in the key (say Eb) as a passing tone to add even more tension into your melody. That is how we pick the notes for our melodies.

Hope that helps...
Since I didn't do a vid I thought it might be better in the "Theory Section" .
Damn A.G.C. if I had a payroll, you'd be on it.

Great article! Nice formatting too! Very easy to read

Ok I lied, one last post. The melody tut done by nfx suggests that a good melody should return back home. is home always the root of the scale? can the melody start and end on a note that isnt the root note long as its starting and ending on the same one?
sorry if these are stupid questions. i wouldnt know.
Posted By misterphreeze on 18 Jan 2011 10:31 AM
This article is a HUGE help AGC. You def did it again. I have a point of confusion though. In the Scale Tones and Non Scale Tones as it relates to melodies: section you say
"And if I want to play the rhythms in between the changing of the chords I can use other notes from the scale to do that. So if I play A for two beats D for two beats and E for two beats I can "make up" a way to use other notes in the key to get to a chord tone when the chord is changing and use chord tones on "Strong Beats" (beats 1 and 3 in the time signature 4/4) so that my melody sounds "good". "
So when playing a rhythm (while the chords are still being held for the 2 or 4 beats) use the other notes in the scale to lead up to the next chord in the progression? sort of like a mini-transition? you say use chord tones on strong beats so that would mean any tone from any of the chords in the progression or specifically a tone from the chord that changes on that strong beat?
Maybe a small .flp file with a two bar example would help clear things up. :-D
Hmnn... I think your over thinking it a little. Your playing a platform video game... you know one of those ones where you jump around like Prince of Persia? OK, Chord tones are like places you can stand indefinitely, Scale tones are like the places you step on but then they crumble after a while and Passing tones (non scale tones) are like running along a wall or something, you can only do it exceptionally briefly. Like that... any deeper understanding is optional. If you understand it at this point stay here for awhile until you get it under your belt before returning to what follows later.
So if lets take an A Minor Scale. A B C D E F G. Let's take two chords where we play every other note at the same time... say Am(ACE) and Dm (DFA). What I'm saying is on the beat (if you don't know what that is Google it or Youtube it) 1 2 3 4 in 4/4 you should play chord tones, in between those Beats you can play Scale tones... any scale tone you like... right before you get to a Chord Tone or Beat you can play a Chromatic (Non Scale tone) that is exactly One Half Step Above or Below a Chord Tone.
Now this will work but if we want to get slightly more complicated we can separate beats into strong beats and weak beats. In Modern Music almost all music is made in 4/4. In 4/4 time there are 4 beats. We number the beats 1 2 3 and 4. the Odd beats are considered Strong Beats... these beats are where we typically start our musical phrases, where you start humming when you make up a tune. The weak beats are in Modern Melododic Composition sometimes treated like an Off beat (in between 1 2 3 and 4) when we are goin for more of a Jazzy Feel Rather than a Classical type Melodic Tension Content. There is more musical tension by playing non chord tones on 2 and 4 then if we have strict adherence to Chord Tones On Beats and so it's a judgment call... how spicy do you want your dish to be?
Again, when we get to this level there are variations the way to think about it is to go back to our Prince of Persia example.
When you step on solid ground you can kind of start over so if you play a chord tone off of the beat you can go back to a chromatic or scale tone and that is how all the "fancy" variations are made. Modern melodic composition is pretty much that simple... this is based off of Jazz Improvisation and not Classical Music Theory so if you get Theory for Imbeciles or something it may something more complicated than this but that kind of stuff only applies to composing music that has not been popular for over 200 years. It is unfortunate that people get confused and try to apply rules that were made for Baroque music to Modern music but it just isn't the case. It isn't any more complicated than this..
Posted By misterphreeze on 18 Jan 2011 01:32 PM
I just started doing it over some simple boom bap beat with a bass kick and a snare/clap. the progression sounds so much better with the melody riding along on the strong beats but doing its on thing in between.

The Moore American
MOORE — Gayland Kitch doesn't feel a bit sheepish about not having a storm cellar, even though he is the director of emergency management in Moore, which faced one of the most violent tornadoes on record, with wind speeds greater than 300 mph, in May 1999.
It isn't that Kitch is resisting the $3,000 or so it would take to build. It's that during tornado weather, he's not home. He's at the office, which has its own shelter. His wife is there, too, volunteering. When their kids lived at home, they came as well.
Kitch isn't stupid, though. When he retires, he said, "I will probably install one."
A lot of people in Moore have done just that since the 1999 tornado killed 43 people in the Oklahoma City area. Kitch says more than 10 percent of Moore's homes — about 2,500 — now have a safe room or shelter. Helping homeowners make the investment: A federal program that has paid up to $2,000 of the cost.
Every person has to make decisions about what to spend on preparedness for natural disasters. Buy a house with a view or live a few blocks from the beach? Build a storm shelter or make friends with a neighbor who has one? Get a weather radio? Buy earthquake insurance? Towns, too, must set building codes and choose whether to restrict the use of cheap building materials. They decide whether to allow development in flood plains, and whether to invest in sophisticated emergency equipment.
These are all down payments on the cost of a disaster. The rule of thumb is that every dollar spent on preparedness saves $4 in recovery costs, according to a report by the National Institute of Building Sciences' Mutihazard Mitigation Council, which others confirm. That's $4 taxpayers won't have to spend.
In perhaps the closest thing to a bailout for those of us too small to matter, the government increasingly covers the costs of disasters.
The burden of disaster recovery is growing. In the 1950s, disasters in the United States caused a combined $53.6 billion in insured losses, according to an assessment by the Wharton Risk Management and Decision Processes Center at the University of Pennsylvania. In the 1990s, losses reached $778 billion.
Driving up the costs are population growth and urbanization. In 2004, Florida alone had $1.9 trillion in insured assets along its high-risk coastal areas, according to the Wharton Risk Management Center's report.
And the insurance industry is balking. Private insurers, stung by costs over the last decade, have stopped writing policies for some areas, or charge such high premiums that people decide to take their chances. Even the National Flood Insurance Program, which will run a $28 billion deficit after Hurricane Sandy, won't insure against flooding in some areas.
Many assets aren't insured, which places more of a burden on government recovery programs. Taxpayers paid out about 62 percent of the recovery costs of disasters between 2000 and 2008, the Wharton Risk Management center reported.
"You didn't see the governor of New Jersey make a big deal about having only 30 to 40 percent market penetration for flood insurance," after Hurricane Sandy, said Jeffrey Czajkowski, a research fellow at the Wharton center. He noted many people live where they could get flood insurance from the government but do not. "The other 60 percent should have insurance, and if they don't, why should they get fast aid?" he said.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency is the main source of disaster recovery funds. It's also the primary source of money for preparedness, though groups like the Army Corps of Engineers also have budgets for preparedness projects.
In 2012, FEMA spent more than $7 billion on recovery. By comparison, it spent $2 billion on disaster preparedness for various events, including terrorism.
FEMA has drawn fire from Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., for its slowness in paying out those funds; it has billions in unspent preparedness money on hand
The agency keeps money in reserve for ongoing projects, but a high bar to get FEMA funds also may be part of the reason for the delay. Most of FEMA's awards are reimbursement grants. In other words, a community or a person pays money for a project and then applies for reimbursement.
In the case of Salisbury, Mass., for example, the application process took "hundreds of hours over three years," said Jerry Klima, a retired corporate lawyer and town selectman.
Salisbury got a grant to protect a business district and a portion of U.S. Route 1 from flooding that can close the highway for days at a time. The grant means the town can repair a culvert beneath an old rail bed that will drain water away from the commercial area during storms.
Politics also can bog down FEMA's grants. In New Jersey, for example, some beachfront property owners are resisting community efforts to shore up protective dunes that would blunt the impact of coastal storms such as Sandy. Their lack of support threatens some plans, despite promised money from FEMA.
In a now-famous case, a couple won a judgment against their town for building a protective dune that blocked their ocean view — and eventually protected their property from Sandy's impact.

Each week for twenty-two months I was given the privilege of submitting random columns on everyday sightings we often overlook. I've written about paying-it-forward, the fragrant bathroom odor of a particular Wal-Mart, people-watching in casinos and quirky dog behavior ... or any topic that sparked my interest.
Fortunately, as the months progressed, so did my readership, allowing "That's What She Said," to be published in numerous Patch towns all over Connecticut. The beauty and gift of writing an opinion column are the wealth of topics screaming to be shared. How often do you really take a moment and laugh at simple, human, everyday living?
It's the observations we witness when no one else is paying attention that I find most humorous and interesting. Just today, I saw an elderly couple bickering at Costco. It was as if no one else in their universe existed. Voices were slow, loud and drawn out, body language and facial expressions were exaggerated while displaying tolerance. I'm assuming this was perfected after years of ping pong verbals.
Since I was young, writing was my passion, a salvation. Sure, other distractions came along the way, but the attraction and draw of words continued to pull the inked pen to paper. Whether I was writing in a tattered journal, a recycled spiral notebook, notes on a napkin or a laptop, the important thing was to always keep writing.
And so I say, with an eager mind and entrepreneurial spirit, thank you! It's time to branch out with no limitations, no boundaries ... free to print four-lettered profanities and run-on sentences. This will be my last column for Patch.
My literary cohort and conjoined twin, Wendy, and I have decided to launch our own website/blog. Until now, the idea had been a whisper, spoken aloud only in our dirty cars with forgotten groceries and fading cell phone batteries.
When an opportunity presents itself, we as individuals have two choices. We can let it pass, accept with regret while continuing to ask the "what ifs." Or we can grasp the opportunity and take the unknown path labeled "Adventure." I think the greatest obstacles are those we set on ourselves, so why not break from the mold, calm the inner voice and try?
Thank you to all my readers. I've thoroughly enjoyed each and every moment of this worthwhile experience! Although our site, realandrandom.com is still under construction, save it as a bookmark and visit.

2013 and Earlier - Audi Q5 Prices Paid and Buying Experience
u2fan1967 Posts: 19Hooray! Just picked up our 2013 Q5 2.0T from our local dealer and its sure is gorgeous (it was the one one display on the showroom floor :-) ). The interior is just beautiful to look at and be surrounded by. Wow, those new headlights are already turning heads on the road..LOL
The vehicle is so much better than my 2008 LandRover LR2 I traded in (of course they are different vehicles, but still). The Range Rover Evoque is wayyy too overpriced, X3 and MB GLK350 was another $6k comparably equipped. The 2.0T is plenty of power for normal driving, its 2s faster than my LR2 (I6) and has more torque. so its quick off the line and smooth with the 8 speed transmission. We love the integrated WiFi Hotspot and Google/online with the T-mobile (6 months free) online data service.. Wow!! I feel like the 2013 changes really "make" this vehicle now what it should be. Great job Audi.
This is my wife and I's 4th Audi. We love the brand.
Deal Details
$35900 2013 Audi Q5 2.0T quattro tiptronic Ibis White, Black Leather

$850 Bang & Olufsen Sound
$800 19" 5-Double Spoke Design Wheels
$550 Audi Advanced key

Hello all.
Just brought home my 2013 Q5 and we love it.
Moonlight metallic blue
2.0 TFSI Premier Plus
Naviagation Plus Package
Price= 41,867 (which included a delivery fee since the car had to be sent from a different dealership) + taxes and fees
We couldn't be happier
I thought I posted the info. Anyways, it is Paul Miller Audi in Parsippany. The guy I worked with is Paul Cheng - good guy - patient and straight forward. The prices are pretty good too - I compared.
Not sure if putting phone number up will get the post erased, so I advise you to google the dealer, and ask for Paul Cheng.
Please let him know that Scott from Randolph recommended him.
Hope that helps.
Hi rknj,
I actually posted the info, but included last name of salesperson, which is not allowed by Edmunds.
Anyways, the dealership is Paul Miller Audi, and is in Parsippany, NJ.
The guy I worked with is Paul (not the owner) - he's a good guy: patient and straight forward.
If you do speak with him, please let him know that Scott from Randolph recommended him.
beautie Posts: 7Just leased and drove home the above vehicle tonight after going through the Costco Auto program in South Florida. Dealt with Tyler at Prestige Auto. Great guy.
Costco program requires them to show you the invoice price for the car, and charge $400 above invoice. Invoice was $36,763, so total cost was $37,163.
Dealer added acquisition cost of $695, dealer fees of $697.50, doc fees of $60 and various other taxes and fees.
Originally offered money factor of 0.00189 but thanks to this forum (thanks guys!), I knew the MF was .00159. He said that is only for prior owners of VW and Audis or with payment of security deposit. I agreed to security deposit of $550.
This resulted in payment of $499 and change plus inception charges of $2,890 (incl. sec dep).
Dealership was closed, salesman, detail guy, finance man and manager were all waiting to go home. I wanted to keep out-of-pocket at $2K (incl sec dep). He agreed and pointed out to me he was selling me the car at $300 below invoice to make those numbers work. Personally, I think that dealer fee makes up for that loss.
When finance guy did the paperwork, no sec dep was included but inception charges were still at $2k. After some back-and-forth via phone with manager and at my suggestion, finance man took out the sec dep so my inception charges were $1450 and payments were at $499.
Buttons feel a little plasticky but car feels great to drive. Very solid. And great visibility. Thanks for all the info on the forums.
ken117 Posts: 189FWIW:
According to Edmunds, the TMV of this vehicle is $37,490. TMV is an average price which, by definition, means half of the vehicles purchased are purchased at a higher price and half are purchased at a lower price.
Dealer fees (additional profit) of $697.50 added to the Costco price of $37,163, results in an acutal price of $37,860.
Just one example of why people should avoid car buying services like Costco.
In my experience, both the TMV and TrueCar overpriced their estimates - I am not sure where the heck they get the data from - the dealers, maybe?
I purchased two cars in the last 3 years and both times, the dealer appears to be somewhat surprised at the price I was willing to do the deal.

With polls showing dwindling support for Proposition 37 just days before the Nov. 6 election, Whole Foods Market is ramping up its support for the ballot measure, which seeks to require food manufacturers to label genetically modified food (or GMOs—genetically modified organisms).
Whole Foods officials formally announced the company's support for Prop. 37 in September. But as the election approaches, additional signage is going up at its stores, and employees throughout the state have been trained on GMOs and the ballot measure, Whole Foods Co-CEO Walter Robb said.
Robb told Patch at the Mill Valley, CA, Whole Foods on Thursday that it's unclear if Prop. 37's passage would create a financial burden for Whole Foods, but nevertheless he said the company is "enthusiastically" supporting it because the company's major priorities include "transparency" and "customers' right to know."
That issue—the alleged cost of labeling foods containing genetically altered ingredients and manufacturers passing on those costs to consumers—has been a central argument by Prop. 37's opponents. Food giants like Monsanto, DuPoint, PepsiCo, General Mills and Kellogg have raised $44 million for No on Prop. 37 to pay for TV advertising making that case, while the Yes on 37 campaign has raised roughly $7 million, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Despite the uphill fundraising battle, Whole Foods has been working in partnership with the Yes on 37 campaign and helped start the Non GMO Project, Robb said.
He said Whole Foods carries 5,000 products that are verified by the Non-GMO Project and encourages other food makers to get verified. The USDA National Organic Standards also prohibit the use of GMOs, Robb said, meaning the company's 365 Everyday Value organic products and other organic items are also GMO free.
Prop. 37 will require manufacturers to spend some cash to change their labels, but Robb argued they won't have to make the modification until 2014, which should provide plenty of time to adjust and may come at a time when they would already update labels.
Some have questioned the claim of increased costs. An analysis by the L.A. Times' opinion staffconcluded that the labeling wouldn't result in significant increases in food costs. "After all, food companies regularly change their labels in one way or another," the Times said.
Whole Foods has put the bulk of its Yes on 37 efforts into social media and also has some radio ads that will become more prevalent in the days before the election.
To date, it hasn't been enough to sway public opinion. A recent poll by the California Business Roundtable and Pepperdine University School of Public Policy revealed 39.1 percent of likely California voters support the Prop. 37, according to the L.A. Times. The poll also found that 50.5 percent oppose the labeling and 10.5 percent are undecided.
GMOs are created by gene splicing techniques. Opponents argue it creates unstable combinations of plant, animal, bacterial and viral genes. GMO labeling is mandatory is almost 50 countries in the world.
According to the nonprofit Non GMO Project, "high-risk crops" that are .

---- — OTTUMWA — If state government is a two-way street, then elected officials who report what they're doing in Des Moines should also be listening to what voters want them to do next.
That's why state Rep. Mary Gaskill, D-Ottumwa, was visiting businesses in her district, she said: Recent changes may impact Iowa's business climate. She went to willing company managers this week to find out if they had questions about recently passed laws or wanted to see something addressed in Des Moines.
"Property tax is something we worked on," Gaskill said Wednesday. "This is the first time I've been able to vote for a property tax [reduction] bill ... since 2003. That's because this one will not devastate local government; it will be back filled by the state."
The only bump in the road may come if the economy worsens again. Income for the state is more dependent than most revenue streams upon how much citizens are earning (income tax) and how much is being spent (sales tax) in the state.
This session didn't see the same reduction in residential property tax.
"We could think about some sort of incentive," she said.
Though Gaskill just started making the rounds in Wapello County and other areas for this set of visits, she has heard concerns about businesses spending too much time doing paperwork or otherwise complying with government regulations. In some cases, that red tape comes from the federal government, she said, but not always.
She's also heard about fairness issues that don't seem to make sense. One business making a product has to go through inspections, but nearby owners of different types of business can make and sell the same product without a state inspection. Utility rates, set with permission of Iowa's Utility Board, may seem unfair to some businesses, too. That's especially true with a seasonal business. If they do all of their business in winter, for example, and none in warmer weather, then their utility costs in winter will be very high. Well, they explained to Gaskill, billing is determined for the year based upon the highest bill.
The subject of the bottle bill comes up from two sectors, supermarkets, which don't like the idea of storing thousands of cans, devoting an employee to can return and have cleanliness concerns, and redemption centers, like Tenco in Ottumwa, which get a penny per can, the same they've received for more than 20 years.
"We are going to look at it again," Gaskill said about the bottle bill.
One place there were fewer complaints, Gaskill noticed, was on the subject of a gas tax increase. That money would go to highway repairs.
She said just like some citizens may feel their county or town is not maintained well enough to draw economic growth, the state is not keeping up their roads. Someone coming to Iowa with the idea of expanding their business might be disappointed in poorly maintained roads, she acknowledged.
Besides businesses in her district, Gaskill stopped at the Southern Iowa Food Bank. Though food insecurity is still a problem in southern Iowa, the food bank had some good things to report.
"They were glad ... Iowa food banks received a million dollars," she said.
She said they also talked locally about the ways the Ottumwa Regional Legacy Foundation and businesses like Hy-Vee have been so supportive of their efforts to distribute food.

Awesome Vintage-Style Star Wars Travel Posters [Images]
Steve Thomas has created an awesome set of eight Star Wars inspired travel posters using the vintage style from the early 20th century. If you are a Star Wars fan, then these will be a lot of fun for you to look at.
From Steve's blog post: These were done in association with a website in order to have them printed. That website is still working on making that a reality. I'm crossing my fingers for a quick resolve. So, for now they are just here to look at.
He also left a message at the end of the blog post for those who would be interested in obtaining the printed versions when they become available.

AbstractThis lecture will provide an overview of research activities in the area of nanostructured carbon and carbide materials used for capacitive storage of electrical energy. Electrochemical capacitors or "supercapacitors" are devices that store electrical energy electrostatically and are used in applications where batteries cannot provide sufficient power or charge/discharge rates, or when a long service life (up to 1 million of cycles) is needed. Until now, their higher cost, compared to batteries, has been limiting the use of supercapacitors in household, automotive and other cost-sensitive applications. We describe the material aspects of supercapacitor development, address unresolved issues and outline future research directions.
High surface area carbon materials are widely used as supercapacitor electrodes. Graphene, nanotubes, activated carbons, template carbons, carbon onions and carbon black are among many materials being used in supercapacitors. Extraction of metals from carbides can generate a broad range of potentially important carbon nanostructures, which range from porous carbon networks to onions and nanotubes. They are known as Carbide-Derived Carbons (CDC). The CDC structure depends on the crystal structure of the carbide precursor as well as process parameters including temperature, time and environment. Extraction of silicon, boron, aluminum, zirconium or titanium from their respective carbides by chlorine at 200-1200°C results in the formation of micro- and mesoporous carbons with the specific surface area up to 3000 m²/g. CDC technology allows the control of carbon growth on the atomic level, monolayer by monolayer, with a high accuracy. It will be shown that the pore size to ion size ratio determines the efficiency of electrochemical energy storage systems. Design of supercapacitor electrodes using nanoporous carbons (3-D), graphene (2-D), carbon nanotubes (1-D) and carbon onions (0-D) for will be addressed. Also, recently discovered 2-D carbides and carbonitrides known as MXenes (Ti3C2, Ti2C and others) will be described.

Now that the first Super Bowl played in Dallas has come and gone, the league turns its attention to Indianapolis. Next season's champion will be crowned at Lucas Oil Stadium, and history tells us that the Colts will not be part of Super Bowl XLVI.
A lot of pressure will be on Peyton Manning and the hometown Colts to become the first team in league history to play the season's final game in their home stadium, but the pressure likely won't be as high as it was on Dallas. Many people, Jerry Jones included, expected the Cowboys to break the trend and play Super Bowl XLV at home, but they struggled through a disappointing season, firing Wade Phillips after a 1-7 start and ending with a 6-10 mark.
Historically, the teams that have played host to the Super Bowl have struggled during that season. Even the Dolphins, who have had 10 Super Bowls played in their home of Miami, have yet to play for the title in South Florida.
Taking a look at the five cities that have hosted the championship game the most times, here is how the hometown teams have fared the years the Super Bowl was to be played in their venue:
1. Miami (hosted 10 Super Bowls)
Miami has hosted the most Super Bowls, yet the Dolphins never played in the big game when hosting. It's even more surprising when you consider this: In the first 10 Super Bowls, the Dolphins played in three (winning two), and Miami hosted four of them, yet the two never overlapped. Miami hosted Super Bowl V following a 1970 season that saw the Dolphins post a 10-4 record. However, they lost to the Raiders in the divisional playoffs. The Dolphins played in the next three Super Bowls. They made the playoffs three more times in years Miami hosted the Super Bowl, never getting past the divisional round. The Steelers and 49ers won two Super Bowls in Miami, and the Cowboys lost three there.
2. New Orleans (nine)
First at Tulane Stadium and then at the Superdome, New Orleans has hosted some of the league's more memorable games, from William "the Refrigerator" Perry's touchdown run in Super Bowl XX to Adam Vinatieri's game-winning field goal to end Super Bowl XXXVI. There has been one constant with the nine Super Bowls held in the Crescent City — the Saints have never been close to playing in any of them. In fact, the Saints have had a winning record in only one of the seasons that ended with the big game being played in their city (1989, when they posted a 9-7 mark). The Saints will try to halt the trend when Super Bowl XLVII is played at the Superdome.
3. Los Angeles and Pasadena, Calif. (seven)
Starting with Super Bowl I, Southern California has a storied connection with the NFL. That includes seven title games — two at the L.A. Coliseum and five at the Rose Bowl. The Rams played their home games at the Coliseum both seasons the Super Bowl was played there, but they failed to make the playoffs in each year. They did have some success in 1979, posting a 9-7 record before winning two playoff games to reach Super Bowl XIV, held in Pasadena. Despite being just 15 miles from their home stadium, the Rams didn't have enough to overcome Terry Bradshaw and the Steelers, as the Rams blew a fourth-quarter lead and fell 31-19.
4. Tampa (four)
The Buccaneers, who didn't make the playoffs from 1983-96, didn't come very close to threatening to be the first team to play in its home stadium in the Super Bowl, posting a 2-14 record the first time the game was held in Tampa. Of the four times the city has hosted the Super Bowl, the Bucs made the playoffs once — in 2000, when they were 10-6. But their loss to the Eagles in the wild-card round kept the Bucs from playing for the championship in the confines of their home stadium. They won their only Super Bowl just two years later.
5. San Diego (three)
San Diego has hosted just three Super Bowls, and the Chargers never made the playoffs in any of those seasons. Their only Super Bowl appearance, a blowout loss to the 49ers in 1995, came three years before San Diego hosted Super Bowl XXXII. While the Chargers were spectators for all three Super Bowls in their home stadium, the Broncos played in two of them. Since San Diego hosted its last Super Bowl following the 2002 season, the Chargers have made the playoffs five times.

Michael Vick will return to the starting lineup in Week Nine following the Eagles' bye week, according to head coach Andy Reid.
Vick has missed the last three-and-a-half games after suffering a rib cartilage injury in the team's Week Four game vs. the Redskins. Kevin Kolb had stepped in and played well the past three weeks, but threw a pair of interceptions and lost a fumble on the Titans' three-yard line in the team's Week Seven loss to Tennessee.
The way we see it
While the Donovan McNabb trade and Kolb's elevation to starter was the story of the offseason, the Vick-Kolb saga has become the story of the regular season. It is no surprise to see Reid go with Vick, who was dynamic in his two games as starter before hurting himself on a long scramble in the loss to Washington. The question is, how long can No. 7 remain healthy and on the field?

Kerry Pushes Hamas Proposal: Undermines Israel & Egypt
After days of intense negotiations and shuttle diplomacy, Secretary of State John Kerry submitted his proposed ceasefire plan to the Israeli cabinet Friday. Cabinet ministers unanimously rejected it.
The plan was so bizarre that the Obama Administration was forced to deny that it was promoting Hamas' demands in the document.
|Friday, July 25, 2014
Who Killed The Kids?
Shells struck a U.N.-run shelter in Gaza yesterday, killing 16 Palestinians, many of them women and children. Hamas and much of the international media blamed Israel for the strike. Israel is investigating the incident and urged that there be no rush to judgment until the facts are in.
|Thursday, July 24, 2014
As you know, the Obama Administration imposed absurd travel restrictions on Israel Tuesday when the FAA banned flights into Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport. The ban was supposed to last only 24 hours, but the FAA renewed it yesterday.
Senator Ted Cruz blasted the restrictions, saying, "The facts suggest that President Obama has just used a federal regulatory agency to launch an economic boycott on Israel." I too criticized them in yesterday's daily report.
|Wednesday, July 23, 2014
Good vs. Evil
Earlier this week, Barack Obama stood on the White House lawn and addressed the conflict between Israel and Hamas. While he paid lip service to Israel's right to self-defense, Obama then went on to express his "serious concerns about the rising number of Palestinian civilian deaths."

Stand With Israel
Day two of the Christians United for Israel Washington Summit kicked off this morning with briefings from leading members of Congress such as Rep. Michele Bachmann, Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. Tim Scott. Following their remarks, thousands of pro-Israel Christians canvassed Capitol Hill, urging their elected representatives to stand with Israel.

Stand With Israel
Christians United For Israel kicked off its ninth annual Washington Summit today. As you may know, Christians United For Israel was founded by Pastor John Hagee, and I am honored to serve on CUFI's Executive Board.
The timing of this year's Summit seems prophetic and the mood is heavy. Thousands of pro-Israel Christians have come to our nation's capital to show their support for the Jewish state as it is once again engaged in hostilities against Islamic terrorists who have vowed to destroy it.

"The Bear Is Loose"
We've been hearing that phrase a lot lately. White House staffers refer to Obama as "the Bear" when he is sneaking burgers behind Michelle's back or cutting loose on the campaign trail. Unfortunately, there is a very different bear loose on the international scene -- the Russian bear.
The evidence is overwhelming that Russian forces or highly trained Moscow-aligned separatists in Ukraine shot down Malaysia Airlines flight MH17. They have routinely shot down Ukrainian fighter jets and helicopters.
|Thursday, July 17, 2014
BREAKING NEWS: World Instability Grows
A Malaysian passenger jet crashed today near the Ukrainian/Russian border. Israel has launched a ground operation into Gaza.
Border Math
The left is losing the PR war over immigration. Public opinion and the political landscape have shifted tremendously in recent weeks. Gallup reports that "immigration/illegal aliens" now tops the public's list of the most pressing issues confronting the country. Other polls show overwhelming opposition to Obama's immigration policies.

America Rejects Open Borders
A poll released today by ABC News and the Washington Post is getting a lot of publicity. It purports to show that the country supports Barack Obama on the issue of immigration.
