The Danger Of A New Electricity Divide — And How To Solve It
The first problem is that providing access to new technologies of this sort requires a great deal of costly infrastructure. And from the pure self-interested analysis of actors on the free market, the costs of extending that access to lower-income customers or geographically remote ones exceeds the benefits. The second problem is that as new technologies become available — in this case, residential solar, energy efficient infrastructure, better battery storage, and other ways to save or self-generate power — it's the economically privileged that first take advantage of them. It's called the "utility death spiral." As richer customers disconnect from the old technology — in this case, the established electrical grid — they leave less privileged customers behind to fund an increasingly expensive infrastructure.
As the paper notes, the history of telephone and internet communication provides an example of what happens next: From 2008 to 2012, wireless-only subscribers jumped 77 percent to encompass 35.8 percent of the American population, while landline-only customers dropped from 17.4 percent to 9.4 percent. Since then, some California customers have seen landline rate hikes of up to 50 percent over the past two years alone. The resulting digital divide — which exists along class, race, and geographic lines — has left households earning less than $30,000 per year 35 percent less likely to have Internet access than households earning $75,000 or more.
To avoid a similar divide emerging in coming decades as solar generation, smart grid technology, and other advancements continue to disrupt the traditional electricity grid, the paper recommends a number of policies:
Repurpose existing electric service programs. The federally funded Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) already provides home energy-bill assistance to low-income households. It could be expanded to include renewable-energy funding. The Rural Utilities Service (RUS) is another federal program that provides financing for electric systems across rural America. It's in the process of approving a new program providing loans for households to install distributed generation and energy-efficiency tools. It could also be expanded to address any future electrical divide.
Bring regulatory changes to the electric industry. This would treat new energy and grid technology companies the same way as the utilities that previously served the same customers. This would come with practical problems, so an new version of the approach Duke Energy is trying out would mandate that existing utilities offer the technologies that allow customers to disconnect from the grid.
Give companies incentives to address the electrical divide. This could be done through the tax code. For example, a tax credit could encourage distributed generation companies to put solar panels on low-income households. As the paper notes, existing tax incentives for renewable energy have been a tremendous success.
Create a federally owned provider of new energy resources. Decades ago, the U.S. government established the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) to bring electricity to those aforementioned Americans the free market was leaving behind. As a result, electricity by the end of the 20th Century electricity was universally accessible to Americans. The government could do the same thing for the emerging market in renewable energy and grid technologies.
As the paper notes, just because the free market, when left to its own devices, would fail to provide universal access does not mean such reticence is best for the economy as a whole. The benefits to economic and job growth of providing universal access are big but often overlooked. Access to these new electricity technologies would bring efficient lighting and cooking options, new opportunities to work, communication tools, educational resources, modern health care services, and increased productivity and competitiveness to tens of millions of poor and underprivileged Americans. It would also help build a broad middle class and customer based for the more advanced products — from appliances to modern computing and communications tools — that are still manufactured in the U.S.
5 Responses to The Danger Of A New Electricity Divide — And How To Solve It
The old phone company, in the days when it was a regulated utility, effectively subsidized the remote customers so they paid roughly the same as the high-density urban customers. In our present every-man-for-himself world, many people seem to have thrown their less fortunate neighbors overboard.
Excellent story.
Yes. The less privileged should have access to Electricity as Urban people can have alternatives.
Dr.A.Jagadeesh Nellore(AP),India
I am in full agreement with the authors and the fast developing countries like China and India should seriously discuss this issue of the new "solar divide". Such governments should device programs to invest one time in such low intensity energy service areas for the poor, with the benefit that the beneficiaries are not pegged with the problem of inability to pay the recurring energy charges. One time help puts them on the road!
Producing electricity on a sunny day is no trouble at all these days. Supplying yourself with on-demand electricity is the first problem, and generating redundancy for 99.999% uptime is the second problem.
On-demand renewable electricity is available using five methods:
1. Hydropumping is the old standby. Pump water uphill to store electricity and let it down during peak demand periods. Hydropumping uses up 30% of the power put into it.
2. Giant fuel cells separate hydrogen from water during times of peak power. The hydrogen is stored in a huge tank.
3. A well-insulated box of rocks will hold heat from a solar collector. Rocks are cheap and have few maintenance problems. Generate the on-demand electricity with a Stirling Engine such as Dean Kamen's Slingshot brand.
4. My diagonal solar chimney, patent pending, search the web for my name and the patent application, stores heat for on-demand electric generation. I think that I can beat the other three candidates for the on-demand renewable electricity market, as soon as our governments wake up and realize the importance of on-demand renewables.
5. For small power backups, use batteries.
The second problem is probably solved with having two or more of these systems on the same mini-grid.
So, at a certain point, entire neighborhoods will cut the wires on the local monopoly. Snip. Monopoly utilities charge too much and deliver too little, don't they! Large industries will probably snip first (except when the government has given them ultra-low electric rates that average homeowners can never get).
Inefficient and old nuclear plant owners will find ways to go bankrupt under our laws so that localities have to pay all of the cleanup costs forever. Be careful that you're not the one stuck with the bill and the mess.
Every village in India will soon have a village electric utility. The only difference will be in the amount of local usage. This "divide" is overrated. The food versus no food divide and the house versus plastic sheeting divide are bigger divides.

A little background... When my dh was 6, his mother left his father for another man because he was physically abusive to her. My FIL told her that she had to leave the kids with him and I guess in the end she didn't fight him. My dh has A LOT of abandonment issues because she didn't fight for him. His father eventually remarried, but the woman used him as a meal ticket to the US and now she has successfully pushed away my dh and his brother. My FIL is so scared of being alone after his first wife left that he puts up with Sylvia's crap and only talks with her and the daughter that is biologically Sylvia's and his. So my poor dh is feeling even more abandonded since his father basically ditched him too. He calls my mom "Mom" and has told her that she is the only real mom he has, but he has told me that he knows that if we were to get divorced that she would be out of his life too :(
So over the years I have searched for his bio-mom to see if I could find her so that he could either get some closure or maybe work to build a relationship... and I think I just found her. She is the right age, right first and middle name, and her last name is the same last name as the man she left my FIL for. Now that I have found her I don't know what I should do?!?!
Should I write her to find out if it is really her?
Should I tell my dh first?
What if she doesn't want a relationship with him and I have told him about her?
If she does want a relationship with him, this could be a very beneficial thing for him, but if she doesn't it would just smash his self-esteem even further and tear up those abadonment wounds more.
What would you guys do???

St. Anthony's Top 5 restaurants for food and fireworks
Minneapolis's Red, White, and Boom fireworks take place this Sunday, July 4, at 10 p.m. over the Mississippi River right between St. Anthony Main, the Stone Arch Bridge, and the Guthrie Theater. Here are our suggestions for where to eat before the big display on the Northeast bank. (Also, re-use this info July 24 when the post-Aquatennial Target Fireworks display takes place in roughly the same spot.)
We're guessing that everything in St. Anthony Main is going to be mobbed--though if you dare fight the crowds, check out the new Aster Cafe or the great beer list at Pracna--and would suggest heading to Hennepin Ave. instead.
3. Burgers at Bulldog NE Here's what we like to see in a neighborhood bar: 24 tap beers (lots of Belgians), jukebox, shuffleboard, tots, and burgers. Bulldog NE has all the bases covered. We're big fans of the Junk Burger, made with double-ground, house-cured Wagyu beef layered with a junk-drawer of toppings: lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, bacon, mushrooms, and roasted garlic aioli. In fact it's among our Top 10 in the Twin Cities.
2. Asian Eats at Ginger Hop We like the General Tsing's Chicken (there's the hops in "Hop"), which is a milder version of General Tso's, and the Hop Laab, or Thai lettuce wraps, made with minced chicken that's seasoned with lime, cilantro, and toasted ground rice. Supplement with something ginger: the Ginger-or-Mary Ann cocktail and the house-made ginger snaps with candied ginger ice cream if they're on the menu.
1. Brasa Have we ever had a bad meal at Brasa? No. Have we ever had a dish we didn't like at Brasa? No. Do we like to go to Brasa pretty much any chance we get? Of course. We could live on nothing but a plate of sides, if we could possibly choose between the cheese grits, yucca, plantains, beans and rice, yams and andouille sausage, the collard greens with smoked turkey...etc., etc.

Polytechnic has approved the design for a multimillion-dollar
project to transform its campus.
The polytechnic plans to spend $10 million to $12 million
linking the F and H blocks and transforming the ground floor
of both buildings into a ''student hub''.
The first stage - which involved fire compliance in H block -
was completed in January and the polytechnic this month
settled on a detailed design for the project.
For example, the concept of lakes and rivers would be evoked
in the materials used in the building, he said.
The next step was for the design team to come up with
detailed drawings, after which the polytechnic would call for
tenders next month.
Once tenders came back, a final decision on whether to go
ahead with the next stages of the project would be made at
the polytechnic's August council meeting.

Here is where the big difference comes in pro racing. With this race not having a pro field, I was able to take a few extra seconds to hop on my bike, put my feet in my bike shoes, and settle into 70.3 bike pace. I started a little on the low side then built from there. I passed all but two people during the bike leg. Here is my Training Peaks file from GCT Bike It was very even paced and very few spikes. With it being a flat course there were very few power surges as well.
The rest of the run I spent trying not to let my quads cramp up and not get over heated. I walked quite a few times during the second half of the run and kept looking back thinking that I had someone running me down. I did, but he ran out of real estate. (pun intended). I crossed the line in 4:08 something. My fastest 70.3 since 2011. The bike was 1 mile short but I was happy with the result, and happy to win a race with such history. Slowtwitch even had a little write up on the race which was unexpected.
Casey and I were able to spend the rest of the day on the beach and have a relaxing weekend. PCB wouldn't be my top beach to visit, but it was nice being at the beach for an extended weekend.
The very next weekend, I traveled to Challenge Knoxville to compete against 60+ other Pro's. Big difference from the previous weekend when I only recognized names on the start list that were from Middle Tennessee. With Knoxville only being a few hours away, we drove over Saturday morning, attended the pro meeting, caught up with some buddies that I haven't raced/seen in a long time, and relaxed the rest of the afternoon. Casey and I were lucky enough to have an awesome homestay (Thanks Muna!!) that was close to town and took the pressure off of us trying to find a hotel on such a busy weekend.
One thing that I'm very strict about is my pre race breakfast. For the past 2 years, I find something that settles easily and has about 400-600 calories depending on the race. And something that has some caffeine. Eboost gives me my caffeine fix with one of their 4 oz shots, and the new Generation UCAN bar settles super fast and keep me full. I also had a Picky bar for the first time and it was amazing. And of course I took my 2 pills of Vector450. Also sponsors Matt Hanson, winner if IM Texas. Must be something to this stuff ;)
Race morning was cool, but nothing like last year. I got everything ready and walked to the start. At 6:50, we were off. I started right next to my boy Kevin Ryan, and drafted off of him for all of 20 yards. But I did have clear water for the first 200-400 yards which is how I like it, then I came over a little, found some feet, and stayed there for the rest of the swim. It's nice to swim in a pack and recognize the guys next to you in the water. I was right where I needed to be for the swim. About 6 of us came out of the water in just over 27 minutes and transitioned quickly to the bike. We ended up on the wrong side of the cones for the first mile of the bike, which led us to being on the wrong side of a barrier so we had to turn around and get back on course. We ended up behind about 5-8 guys that we had out swam by at least 1 minute, and also the top 2-3 girls. Ugh!!!! I worked hard for the next 4-5 miles to get past them and just stayed focused on not crashing in the rain soaked, pot hole filled roads of close-to-downtown Knoxville.
|Finisher's Medal!!
Here is where my power on the bike was jumping from 500+ to 0 because of the surges of the guys around me, the steep uphills, and the steep down hills. The first 15 miles my NP was 310. I was not prepared to do this, but I did not come to this race just to sit on my bike and watch my power meter to make sure I was "pacing" myself. I came to race, and if I had to walk the 13.1 miles, then I was going to do it as long as I kept these guys close on the bike. The pace stayed hot from 15-30 miles as my NP was still in the upper 290's. We settled down a little from 30-40 miles, but then the last 14-16 miles were hairy because we got back onto the Olympic distance bike course where there were hundreds of triathletes still competing. Imagine trying to pass 10-15 age groupers every minute, while keeping your competitors close, and avoiding the bad sections of the road. Our pace dropped significantly here as we were just trying to get back to T2 safely. Here is the power file. We witnessed several crashes and several others almost crash. A group of about 8 of us all came into T2 together. I had a great transition and ran out to have my brother tell me I was in 5th position. I was third out of our group meaning there were only 2 up the road. I knew something must have happened to one of the guys up the road because at the last 180 degree turn on the bike, there were 3 guys leading the way.
|Ryan and I sporting the Tri4Him uni's.
|Old Roomies taking 2 of the top 10 spots
I settled into pace and passed Thomas Gerlach early. AJ Baucco ran past me about about the 1 mile mark and I picked up the pace to run with him. We ran together for a few miles before he slowed a little. I passed Kevin Ryan around mile 5 or so and he told me I was in 3rd. I couldn't believe it but didn't want to think about it right then. I held my pace but then Thomas and Justin Metzler ran past me about mile 6 like I was standing still. I kept them close until about mile 9, but managed to hold my 5th position all the way to the finish. I finished in 4:07 something which was amazing considering the run course was much harder than last weekend, and I rode 2 miles longer than last weekend.
These results wouldn't have been possible without Casey there by my side at the race and throughout the winter during my "rough" patches. My family and also my Tri4Him team and their continued support. I love representing our team every where I go. It's a great conversation starter before/after the race (kind of hard during the race) and I've had several people contact me after the race to give them a little more info about our team. The Lord has blessed me with the ability to go fast and to suffer and I try to put those to use in His name. Without Him, none of this is possible!

Higher Taxes Boost State Revenue
States in the Red
Most states have addressed or still face gaps in their budgets, while tax revenue declined in the final quarter of 2009.

State governments saw year-over-year tax collections rise in the first quarter for the first time since the outset of the recession, but revenues were well below pre-recession levels for most states.
State tax revenues increased 2.5% to $164.5 billion in the quarter, according to an analysis of Census Bureau data released Tuesday by the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government at the State University of New York. The Institute report said data from 42 states that have released tax figures for April and May suggested that second-quarter revenues grew less than 1%.
"Fiscal conditions remain fragile, indicating a long and bumpy road for recovery," says Lucy Dadayan, senior policy analyst at the Rockefeller institute.
The first-quarter gain was largely the result of tax increases, driven by a 2.5% gain in personal income taxes and a 0.4% increase in sales taxes. Corporate income taxes, which tend to be volatile, fell 0.6% from a year ago.
Changes in tax revenues tend to lag behind recessions because it takes time for lost wages and thriftier spending to translate into lower income and sales taxes. Despite the recent improvement, state revenues are still under heavy stress. The $164.5 billion collected in the first three months of the year was lower than the tally in the first quarter of 2006, about a year before the recession began.
While tax revenues have recovered from a free-fall that persisted through much of 2008 and 2009, state budgets remain far from healthy. Much of the first-quarter increase came from two states, California and New York, that have raised taxes to close budget gaps.
While states have seen modest tax growth, local-government revenues have just started to fall. Census figures show that property-tax revenues—the lion's share of them collected by local governments such as cities and school boards—fell 0.6% to $107.7 billion in the first quarter from the same period a year ago. That was the first year-over-year decrease in property taxes since the second quarter of 2003.
With tax revenues still lagging and the phasing out of state assistance that was part of the $787 billion federal economic stimulus plan, state budgets are expected to be under strain for several years. A recent report from the National Governors Association showed states still faced $127 billion in budget gaps over the next two years. Unlike last year, current deficits have been mostly rectified through program cuts instead of tax increases.

|Head Football Coach
|Victoria, TX
|Previous College:
|Trinity University
Jerheme Urban has led the Trinity Tigers football team for two seasons, and has amassed a record of 12-8. The 8-2 record of the 2015 campaign doubled the number of victories from the 2014 season. Coach Urban, a 2003 Trinity graduate, was appointed to the top position in November 2013, after serving as an assistant coach for two seasons. He took over the reins from Steve Mohr, who retired after 24 seasons as head coach.
Six Tigers players have been elected as USA College Football All-Americans, and 20 were tabbed for the All-Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Teams. Nine of Coach Urban's returning players were selected as 2015 USA College Football Pre-Season All-Americans.
Coach Urban brought a wealth of National Football League experience back to Trinity, when he joined the staff in 2012. During his nine-year NFL career, the talented wide receiver played for the Seattle Seahawks, Arizona Cardinals (including the 2008 Super Bowl team), and Kansas City Chiefs. Coach Urban completed his NFL career with 91 receptions for 1,266 yards and eight touchdowns.
During his days on Trinity's campus (1999-2003), Coach Urban was a versatile student-athlete, excelling in football and track and field. He holds Trinity records in career touchdowns scored, career receiving touchdowns (tied), single-season receiving touchdowns, and single-season TD receptions. Coach Urban is also ranked second in career receiving yards, career points scored, and career kickoff returns.
Coach Urban was a three-time All-SCAC honoree, and was elected to All-America Teams by D3football.com (First Team) and the Football Gazette (Second Team). He was a key player on the 2002 Trinity football team which made it all the way to the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl (the NCAA Division III Championship game).
On the track, Coach Urban was named the SCAC Male Track and Field Athlete of the Year four straight times, from 2000-2003. It marked the first time in conference history a SCAC athlete achieved that feat. He is also a Trinity record-holder in the 400 meters, 4x400-meter relay, and the triple jump.
Coach Urban earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and history from Trinity. Shortly after graduation, Coach Urban signed an NFL contract. While at Trinity, Coach Urban met his future wife, Emily (Goodwin), a 2003 graduate who was also a standout in track and field. The couple has a daughter, Liesl, and twin sons, Luke and Barrett.
A native of Victoria, (TX), Coach Urban attended Stroman High School.

Welcome aboard Brandon!
The return of a great program continues to look more and more likely. I'm glad to see the coaches going after so much of the local talent. There's more talent in the state of Utah than previous coaches ever believed.

From a loyal Cougar fan, I'm very happy that Utah is getting some good talent again. The games have become quite a bit less fun as of late. It'll be nice when they're rolling again so Utah has better representation in the NCAA tourney.

That's a great comment Unca Bon. That's good sportsmanship. I remember feeling the same way in the 90s when byu had fallen off in basketball. Sure it's fun to pound your rival once in a while. But once you've done that, I want to see them get back up and have a good competition again.

Thanks Bon,
I remember cheering for BYU as they were pulling their program out of the 1-26 hole. Since then, BYU has surpassed Utah. Hopefully the Utes can now get back on equal footing with the Cougars... it just makes sports viewing in the state of Utah more fun when both programs are healthy.

Nice pickup for the Utes and good for Brandon. With him being an unrated PG and
having no other scholarship offers (Harvard wanted him but they don't offer
athletic scholarships) it was fortunate for him that Utah came in with his only
offer. He might have been able to walk on at Utah Valley or Southern Utah or
maybe Weber St but this is a little closer to home for him and saves his parents
from having to drive.
BYU already has 4 commits (2 national top 20 players and a 3 star PF) and is saving the last possible scholly for Jabari. There just wasn't any room and they can't possibly take everyone. Its fortunate that programs like Snow, UofU, Weber and Westminster are out there so that less talented local players can still play close to home and get an education. Good job Coach Krysko! Congrats Brandon!

Big Cougar,
Did you even read the article? Brandon is going to be a senior in high school this year. He is a bit off the radar right now but come next spring after a stellar senior season he will be getting plenty of attention and your words will embarrass you.
Kudos to the other BYU fans who posted some classy comments here.
BTW, Brandon will be a player at the U when the new basketball training facility is finished. From what I hear it will be every bit as good as the new football training center now under construction.

hinata and menma by CarrotCakeBanditWatch
©2013-2016 CarrotCakeBandit
Favorite characters in whole the series well done!
oooooooooooooooooh my soooooooooooo pretty
they are so badass together
anyone ever wonder how regular Hinata would react to Menma?
this looks interesting! me likey
haha, always loved the bad sides of the good characters in RTN love your style
flirty rtn hinata is flirty XD
love this
very awesome picture. I just have one little thing: I think people tend to forget that Menma is actually a blonde. yes he does have black hair for most of the movie, and yes he is a complete badass made of badassery, but he really is a blonde. his hair faded back to blonde right before Naruto and Sakura went back to their world. trust me, I do NOT have a problem with this picture. it is very awesome, but sometimes it just irks me a tiny bit that Menma is always drawn with black hair.
but when I saw Menma fighting Naruto, shirtless, I was drooling. I was.
woah °O°
aren´t those boobs way too big ?
aren´t those boobs way too big ?
what pic awesome of hinata and menma of road of way ninja movie is fantastic congraluations friend.
I love Menma's outfit. I know Naruto's is symbolic of his legacy and truer to his character, but omg Menma's clothes unf.
UOUO!! Incredible draw ;D
That Hinata surely have perfect curves, *-*
badass couple lol
its so sexy
Now Menma just needs to get some black shoes, slightly faded jeans, a white button-up shirt, a white hoodie, and a black jacket with a red tribal marking on the back and he'll look almost exactly like Alex Mercer!
Words can't describe how much I love this
jelly of u
What kind of conversation are they having here?
this is AMAZING! Menma is STUNNING! So hot! Thanks for sharing this!
I am not a fan of fanshipping in the slightest but they would make a great couple. They are the bad-ass counterparts of their regular personas.
I love these two even more every time I see them and I still haven't seen the movie!
the club can't even handle you right now
so wonderful
the club can't even handle you right now
so wonderful
I didn't even think about them...but this makes me want to ship them! Nice!
Dat Hinata.
I think Menma and Hinata would make a good couple after all!!!
I like them
I like them
hot XD
Well done! You drew them very well. :3

Amidst the black veils and funeral orations of the Victorian Age, a literature of adventure - to outer space, to African jungles, to mythological kingdoms - was born. The genre was called "The Lost World", and Henry Rider Haggard, Knight Commander of the British Empire, was a chief architect.
In Child of Storm, book two of Haggard's Quatermain series, Shelly Frasier's dulcet voice takes the listener to Zululand, a kingdom of warring brothers in Southern Africa. Loosely based on historical fact, Child of Storm follows a prototypical Indiana Jones - the intrepid Englishman, Allan Quartermain - straight into trouble and the arms of Mameema, a beautiful pawn in the warring brothers' game. This audiobook is perfect through headphones at the back of a funeral.
Fortunately Quatermain sees through her witchcraft. The Zulu king declares Mameena a witch and sentences her to death for many offenses, including causing a civil war. The saga continues as she is granted one last wish that dramatically changes everything.
Public Domain (P)2002 Tantor Media, Inc.
"child of storm"
The story would be very interesting to those intrigued by the Zulu kingdom and its relationship to the white settlers. It is filled with mystery and magic. I did not feel excitement or passion as I followed the protaganist, the white trader Alain Quartermain, through Zululand's political turmoil. Or sense the power the nyanga (medicine man) Zakali exerted over the native bantu people.
I enjoyed it none the less. Written in time of when slavery was prevalent. I felt Haggard's narrative of the Zulu nation was surprising respectful of their culture and intellect.
I highly recommend it to those fascinated by the history of southern africa.

Running Time: 81 Min
Company: Homegrown Video
Cast: Pierre (I), George (I), Crysta, Aubrey (I), April (I), Candace, Cynthia (I), Corine (II) (amateur)
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Pro-Am
Homegrown Video 721 features, yet again, amateurs who get down on camera, presumably for the first time.
The best scene is the first, featuring blondes Aubrey and Candace. They waste little time getting on their knees and sucking dick, looking like they know what they're doing. Though there's not much more to the scene than that, it's a pleasure to see that these young ladies love cock. And they're cute, which helps.
The rest of this title, though, doesn't do much to inspire. It's quite obviously amateur, which is just fine, but the sex just happens without any highlights.
Retailing: Average amateur title has one decent scene.

I looked into the SMTP plug-ins, but for some reason, they would not send the test email - It seems strange that the form would work properly at all if this was the issue.

KEWLLLLL, i love it
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Not really it..
The instruments really don't match what the song is supposed to be. The tempo is off by a bit and you could hear maybe a few mistakes.
(Around 34 seconds for example, there is a noticeable pause that shouldn't be there.)
Also, constant drumming isn't what the real version is about, AND theres almost a flat tone in the entire song because parts like :55, :56, :57 that use heavy drumming get a weak beat instead.
Anyway, still sounds good and definitely deserves the score. great work =D

Suzuki has issued the first teaser pictures of its new Nissan Qashqai rival. The C-segment crossover will make its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show and is based on the S-Cross concept, which was shown at last year's Paris Motor Show.
So far, the only details released by Suzuki about its new crossover - which slots in above the SX4 in its line-up - is that the new car will offer "outstanding versatility" and "one of the largest luggage areas in the crossover segment."
Suzuki will also reveal the car's name at Geneva, along with full details of the car's petrol and diesel engine range. However, the production model looks to have remained close to the S-Cross concept, with a bold front grille, swept-back headlights and big wheels.
The production car is expected to be offered with front-wheel drive as standard, with an advanced four-wheel-drive system on higher models. Suzuki claims that the four-wheel-drive technology employed on the car "ensures excellent handling and driving enjoyment."
The new crossover is built on an entirely new platform and spearheads Suzuki's SUV offensive, which will see the firm launch a new crossover every year for the next four years.
One of those models will be an SX4 replacement but there will be at least one other brand-new car, developed from the same platform as the S-Cross, as well as a city-car crossover.

LADY LAKE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida police have arrested a 25-year-old man they say beat a toddler with a plastic flower.
Lady Lake Police arrested Brandon Quimper on a child abuse charge Thursday. According to an arrest affidavit, the 2-year-old had 4-5 inch bruises and abrasions on her back and legs.
The Orlando Sentinel reports Quimper later admitted spanking the child with the plastic flower after she hit him first in the eye.
He allegedly said he spanked her to display punishment. Quimper lives in New York.

Sorry for the double posting, but the previous title was misleading and got zero replies, I was unable to edit the thread title.
This may be old and/or useless news but I had never been able to see the game contents for my games no matter which drive I used. Including my 360 Hitachi drive hooked up to sata. Attempts to unlock it with DVDInfoPro failed.
However, after I used wxRipper to make a backup of my LOTR BFME II I decided to open up wxExplorer and double check the image.
The game disc was still in the drive and was showing up in wxExplorer as 7.85GB and I could enumerate the directories. So I opened up ISOBuster and it could see the game data as well. I could navigate the folders and the drive would spin briefly and quickly list files from any folder on the disc.
I was under the impression you simply could not see the contents of these drives on a PC drive?
This is of interest to me considering I cannot succesfully extract security sectors with my Hitachi and create a working backup yet I can use a friends SS and my own wxRipper made backup and they work.
This is using a Hitachi v59.

By T. Anthony Bell, Fort Lee Public AffairsMarch 27, 2009
Fort Lee, Va. (Mach 19, 2009) -- For Master Sgt. Danettelynn Brown, it is somewhat bittersweet to start and end a career at the same location.
"As a quartermaster Soldier it is a rarity for you to actually retire or end your career here (at Fort Lee) where you started it," she said.
Brown's sentiments came during an awards ceremony held Friday at the Office of the Staff Judge Advocate's conference room, where she and her husband, Master Sgt. Sheldon Brown, were honored for their service to the Quartermaster Corps.
Brig. Gen. Jesse R. Cross, Quartermaster Center and School commanding general, presented Danettelynn with the Distinguished Order of St. Martin, the second-highest award in the Corps.A,A Sheldon was honored with the Catharine Greene Award for spousal support.
Danettelynn, who will wear the uniform for the last time in May, said the Order of St. Martin award is a measure of distinction and she is proud to be a recipient.
"I'm at a loss for words," said Brown after the ceremony, which was attended by about 20 people.
The Baltimore native went on to say the award can be attributed to her varied assignments as a quartermaster, especially those similar to the trial-by-fire experiences of her first assignment in a military intelligence unit.
"A lot of what they didn't do, they expected me to do," she recalled.A,A I picked up the food, delivered laundry, opened the arms room, issued supplies and coordinated fuel runs.A,A Everything that quartermaster Soldiers do in each of our specialties, I performed in that military intelligence unit.A,A So for me, this award means everything, because I actually put in the work of a true quartermaster Soldier."
Brown's supervisor, Lt. Col. Michael Kanney, the installation's inspector general, noted his Soldier's storied career and characterized her as a "phenomenal individual" who is more than deserving of the Corps' second-highest honor.
"(The Order of St. Martin) is just one of many awards that she will receive in her lifetime," he said of his noncommissioned officer in charge.A,A "I met Master Sgt. Brown about two years ago and handpicked her as an E-7 to come work for me. Within the last few years I watched her bloom from being a young Soldier to someone I would almost consider equivalent to a field grade officer."
Danettelynn's husband, Sheldon, who attended the ceremony with the couple's two teenaged children, is currently on leave from a tour in Iraq. Assigned to Fort Lee's Company A, 244th QM Battalion, 23rd QM Brigade, he became the first active duty Soldier to be recognized with the Catharine Greene Award for support he provided to his wife during her career.
"I take it as an honor, being a quartermaster being married to a quartermaster Soldier," said Sheldon.A,A "It is not often that two quartermaster Soldiers get to be honored at the same time, especially by the quartermaster general."
The Browns have been married 18 years, and like many other dual-military couples, have endured the rigors of balancing career and Family.A,A Danettelynn said it wasn't easy but having a grasp of what the other was experiencing made it less difficult.
"We each understood what the other was going through," she said, "so for me to understand his hard day at work and for him to understand my hard day at work made things easier."
Danettelynn said the Family has plans to reside in the local area to, amongst other things, provide some measure of permanence for their children.
"I just finished school and I'm thinking about going back for a PhD," she said. "The kids are in high school so I kind of want to give them that stability to where they can finish and go off to college, and then I'll think about what I want to do after that."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The Portable Dorothy Parker: (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)by Dorothy Parker, Seth

The second revision in sixty years, this sublime collection ranges over the verse, stories, essays, and journalism of one of the twentieth century's most quotable authors.
For this new twenty-first-century edition, devoted admirers can be sure to find their favorite verse and stories. But a variety of fresh material has also been added to create a fuller, more authentic picture of her life's work. There are some stories new to the Portable, "Such a Pretty Little Picture," along with a selection of articles written for such disparate publications as Vogue, McCall's, House and Garden, and New Masses. Two of these pieces concern home decorating, a subject not usually associated with Mrs. Parker. At the heart of her serious work lies her political writings-racial, labor, international-and so "Soldiers of the Republic" is joined by reprints of "Not Enough" and "Sophisticated Poetry-And the Hell With It," both of which first appeared in New Masses. "A Dorothy Parker Sampler" blends the sublime and the silly with the terrifying, a sort of tasting menu of verse, stories, essays, political journalism, a speech on writing, plus a catchy off-the-cuff rhyme she never thought to write down.
The introduction of two new sections is intended to provide the richest possible sense of Parker herself. "Self-Portrait" reprints an interview she did in 1956 with The Paris Review, part of a famed ongoing series of conversations ("Writers at Work") that the literary journal conducted with the best of twentieth-century writers. What makes the interviews so interesting is that they were permitted to edit their transcripts before publication, resulting in miniature autobiographies.
"Letters: 1905-1962," which might be subtitled "Mrs. Parker Completely Uncensored," presents correspondence written over the period of a half century, beginning in 1905 when twelve-year-old Dottie wrote her father during a summer vacation on Long Island, and concluding with a 1962 missive from Hollywood describing her fondness for Marilyn Monroe.
- A Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition with French flaps, rough front, and luxurious packaging
- Features an introduction from Marion Meade and cover illustrations by renowned graphic artist Seth, creator of the comic series Palooka-ville

Dorothy Parker is possibly the wittiest and most honest female author that I have ever read. Her realistic short stories and hilarious poems are also eloquently written. Some of my favorites out of the book are "Resume", "The Lovely Leave", and "Big Blonde". A read you will read again and again.
She is amazingly brilliant writing style andhumorous wit.
Keep in mind, it's a collection. It's not a novel. It's great for conversation starters at parties...to read a funny short story or a couple of Ms. Parker's famous witticisms. I would never suggest reading this book from cover-to-cover; but it is perfect for a light, intelligent, and entertaining "in-between" read.
An interesting insight into Dorothy Parker. This book is alive with her prose, poetry, and sharp wit. It gives one an idea of what it was like to be a woman in a man's literary world in the early 1900's.
Dorothy Parker's writing is timeless. I've read her works over and over for years and she has a permanent place in my collection. A timeless voice, wit and a boldness that made her name in her day.
This book highlights the brilliant Dorthy Parker in all aspects of her life, and her many talents as a woman writer. Add water and you've got yourself Dorthy Parker.. hence, the Portable Dorthy Parker!
Dorothy Parkers Brilliantly imaginitive pessimistic, intelligent style creates an intensly rich book including wonderful and interesting prose and short stories. Because of her highly sincere and amusing topics she is one of my favorite writers. some of my personal favorites are Big Blonde, frustration, and res

Only one NHRA POWERade tour team owner had entries in all three pro categories at last weekend's season-opening Winternationals in Pomona, Calif.
Don Schumacher fielded a Top Fuel dragster, three Funny Cars and two Pro Stock racecars. But by the end of the day on Sunday, he had not a single trophy in his hands.
Schumacher knows that in drag racing, bigger isn't always better.
"It was a disappointment," said Schumacher from his corporate headquarters in Chicago on Thursday. "But it was the first race of the season and you always discover that there are bugs that still need to be worked out. We weren't the only team that had some tough sledding so we'll just take what we learned to Phoenix next week and hope for better luck."
Schumacher has gathered a veritable All-Pro roster of blue chip talent into his immense operation, which is the largest in the sport. His son, Tony -- the defending POWERade
Champion -- drives the U.S. Army Top Fuel dragster; Whit Bazemore, Gary Scelzi and Ron Capps make up his Funny Car battalion; and Jeg Coughlin Jr. and Richie Stevens headline his new Pro Stock lineup with the legendary Bob Glidden handling mechanical setups.
On Sunday, Tony was a second round loser in Top Fuel while Bazemore advanced to the F/C semifinals, losing to eventual race winner Tommy Johnson Jr. All of the other Team Schumacher drivers were first-round victims, including Scelzi who ran a career-best elapsed time, 4.717, at a career-best 331.53 mph, but lost on a holeshot to Phil Burkart thanks to an uncharacteristically tardy .154 reaction time.
"Gary is really taking that loss on himself," said Schumacher. "He's down about it, especially when you look at the fantastic numbers he ran. He obviously had the best car on raceday based on performance, but I reminded him that he's won plenty of rounds because of his driving and he has nothing to be ashamed of."
Going zero-for-6 in the season's first race is a bitter pill to swallow for a team owner who was a renowned Funny Car star 30 years ago, driving a string of nitro machines bearing unforgettable names such as "Stardust" and "Wonder Wagon."
Does the pressure of running a successful battery charger company in Chicago while leading drag racing's biggest fleet of rolling stock ever become overwhelming?
"Toward last year, I have to admit, I was beginning to feel a bit scattered," he said. "Recently, I've hired some people who have been able to give me a lot of help in the various areas of my business and that's made a difference."
Of course, the question which frequently pops up during any conversation with Schumacher is whether there's the possibility of expanding his enormous team even further.
To that he said, "I'm always on the lookout for opportunities from the business and sponsorship side. I've said many times how I'd like to have a second Top Fuel car to give us a strategic benefit racing against the Kalitta three-car team.
"But (crew chief) Alan Johnson thinks a second car could be a distraction, and besides, we won the championship last year with one car and I firmly believe we have the ability to win it again."

A Dunedin bar has paid to be invaded by British cricket fan
club the Barmy Army and become its official headquarters for
five nights next month.
The Terrace Bar duty manager Kelly Gillian said the Barmy
Army approached the Octagon bar with an offer to make it its
official headquarters, in return for a cash payment and bar
tab, when the England cricket team plays the Black Caps in a
five-day test match in Dunedin.
The bar would be opening earlier and closing later and would
serve English food and play British music and staff would
dress in a British theme, he said.
''It will be like a British St Paddy's for five days.''
The bar would host an opening party on Tuesday, March 5, and
an exit party on March 10 and would have extra security
working during the period, he said.
The cost to secure the rights and the exclusive use of the
words ''Barmy Army'' for marketing was confidential, he said.
''But it's an amount you'll get back,'' Mr Gillian said.
The Otago Daily Times understands the bar paid the
Barmy Army $5000 and included a $2000 bar tab.
Mr Gillian said Barmy Army members would get subsidised drink
If the five-day test match finished earlier than scheduled,
the army would stay in Dunedin for the same amount of time,
he said.
''These guys will just stick around and drink.''
Eight hundred Barmy Army members were registered for the tour
of New Zealand, Mr Gillian said.
The Terrace Bar owner John Macdonald said the size of the bar
and the Barmy Army's need to be ''fed and watered'' was ''a
good fit''.
The bar had a capacity for 350 patrons, he said.
The owners of Ra Cafe & Bar, Alibi Bar and Restaurant and
Stuart St Brew Bar told the Otago Daily Times they
were not approached by the Barmy Army to be its headquarters.
The Barmy Army website said it was the United Kingdom's
largest organisation aimed at helping cricket fans support
the England cricket team.

Yep... they are English. Would we expect anything else from
their supporters!?! Could be worse, could be their football
team coming here!
Whatever. They are basically a pub crawling group of yobbos
intent on getting drunk and having 'a good time.'
Cheers for the detail Max_Power, I was not aware of
As I am sure are the majority of people in GB - given that
even before 1992 the team were never referred to as anything
other than "England" I can't imagine their supporters are
really bothered about whether Scotland or Wales were/are
This is just part of an ongoing gripe of mine, whereby
everything related to "Britain" is referred to as
"England/English" - including, I have to assume, the question
in the NZ Census which asks which country you were born in.
Unless of course they mean to give you a choice of
"England" rather than "United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Northern Ireland". I realise, of course, that the
English are the majority of the population of this country,
but they are not the only population in the country - the
Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish also have a claim to the
description "British"
Rant over... for now..
Technically they sort of are but not quite Britain. They are
the England and Wales Cricket Board and the team
represents both countries, and until 1992 they included
But if you look at the flags of their supporters you will
rarely see a Union Jack and more commonly see a St George's
Cross, therefore most people would identify them as England.
I will be interested to see their interpretations of the
concepts of "English" and "British". By definition
everything "English" is "British" but not everything British
is English!
The Barmy Army are England supporters *not* British
We will have to wait and see how long this bar, along with
others, cries poor about having to contribute to an events
fund for the city because business is 'tough'.
