The CX-9 was Mazda's first vehicle designed specifically for US consumption, and one Motor Trend SUV of the year award later, Mazda may be on to something. Sales momentum has increased steadily for the seven-seat utility vehicle, with 3,000 units flying off dealer lots in October alone. Mazda's flexibility allowed the automaker to transform in 18 months a minivan that would likely retail for less than $30,000 into a hot CUV with a price tag reaching $40,000. The Hiroshima-based automaker will leverage those lightning-fast production capabilities and its Ford-shared global architecture bin to produce more vehicles for US tastes, and we're happy to hear it.
Since Mazda seems to have a handle on CUVs (it has four in the US already), we can only guess what exclusive product the development team in Irvine, CA will give us next. A zoom-zoom version of the Honda Ridgeline would be interesting, as would a US-unique Mazda2. We'd like to put in a vote for Mazda utilizing the RX-8 platform to create a sporty RWD sedan, but we're sure everyone the world over would want that.

AP Sports Writer
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- The Indianapolis Colts keep doing unthinkable things.
They're winning close games with a rookie quarterback and one of the league's youngest teams. They're winning with an interim head coach, and now, they're on the verge of making it back to the playoffs without Peyton Manning.
And it's all thanks to a new cast of comeback kids.
"You know you have a chance until the last tick goes off the clock with those guys --as long as you can keep it within a manageable striking distance," coach Bruce Arians said Monday describing his experiences with three quarterbacks he's coached: Andrew Luck, Manning and Ben Roethlisberger.
Manning and Roethlisberger have the Super Bowl rings to prove it.
Luck doesn't have his ring yet, but his resume is getting stronger each week.
He's led the Colts to last-minute winning drives against Green Bay and Minnesota, an overtime win at Tennessee and, on Sunday, delivered another masterpiece with two TD passes in the final 2:39 to rally Indy from a 33-21 deficit to a stunning 35-33 win at Detroit as time expired. It was Indy's first winning score with no time left since 1990, yet another chapter in Luck's uncanny rookie season.
The two-time Heisman Trophy runner-up has already broken Cam Newton's single-game record for yards passing by a rookie; broken Manning's record for most 300-yard games as a rookie (six); and has won more games (eight) than any quarterback taken No. 1 overall since the 1970 merger. He's still on pace to break the league's single-season rookie marks for attempts, completions and yardage, and when Luck has needed big passes in clutch situations, he's been almost unstoppable.
In one key measure, games decided by eight or fewer points, Luck is a gaudy 7-1. The only loss came on an improbable an 80-yard TD pass with less than a minute to go after Luck had given Indy the lead with another last-minute score. Compare those numbers to Manning, who won eight one-possession games at four different times during his 14 seasons with Indy, and had a career-high nine only once, in 1999.
Luck's latest chapter came in Manning-like fashion Sunday when the 6-foot-4, 234-pound quarterback threw a perfect 42-yard strike to LaVon Brazill despite having a defender wrapped around his legs. That score got the Colts within 33-28.
After a desperately needed defensive stop, Luck went back to work with 1:07 on the clock and no timeouts.
He started the drive with a 9-yard run, then dropped a perfect lob into Reggie Wayne's hands for 26 yards with 52 seconds left. After a spike, Luck sprinted around Ndamukong Suh and stepped out of bounds for a 16-yard gain. He followed that with a 10-yard completion to Dwayne Allen that gave Indy four chances at the end zone from the 14 with 24 seconds left. Luck's first three passes all fell incomplete, but on the final play, a scrambling Luck spotted the open Donnie Avery short of the goal line, flicked the ball to him and nearly outran Avery into the end zone as time expired.
"They don't know no better, don't know any better, man," Wayne said after the game. "They just know to just keep playing, at the end of the game, just see the way we fall out. That's a credit just to the coaches. Just keeping the guys into it, keeping them to play toward the end and guys just go out there and keep fighting and fighting till it's all over."
It also explains why the Colts are closing in on an improbable playoff trip.
If Indy beats Tennessee (4-8) at home Sunday, all the Colts would need to clinch a postseason spot is one more win and a conference loss by either Cincinnati (6-5) or Pittsburgh (6-5). Since the franchise moved to Indy in 1984, the Colts have made the playoffs just three times without Manning.
But with only two teams outside of the AFC's four division leaders having fewer than seven losses, and because Indy hasn't played either the Bengals or Steelers, the tiebreaker would be based on AFC record. With two wins in their last four games, the Colts would be 10-6 overall and 7-5 against the AFC. Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, who play Dec. 23 in Pittsburgh, already have five losses each against AFC foes.
Indy closes the season by hosting Tennessee, visiting Houston and Kansas City before facing the Texans in a Dec. 30 rematch at Lucas Oil Stadium -- a game the Colts have pegged as the possible return for head coach Chuck Pagano.

The entrance to Morgans Bar is very non-descript...
or at least it's as non-descript as an entrance can be when its adjacent to a swanky Ian Schrager hotel like Morgan. For those of you not familiar, other Ian Schrager Hotels include the Royalton, Hudson Hotel and the Paramount in New York as well as a number of other hotels in major cities across the country...but I digress.
Morgans Bar is located just to the left of the main hotel entrance (to the right is Asia de Cuba which we'll get to another time). Before entering the bar you descend a dimly lit staircase and pass through a curtain. This is where the allure begins.
Morgans Bar is not your traditional New York chic nightspot. When you enter the main room, it feels like you are transported back to the 30's/40's (or so I hear) Come on...I'm not that OLD!
Anyway...the main room is dimly, yet romantically lit with many candles. Ornate mirror lined exposed brick walls, equally ornate chandeliers with faux candles and some eclectic relaxing music (great electro jazz and even some more modern U2 tunes) round out the atmosphere. Comfy sofas line the walls...each section with a small table where you can rest your drinks and appetizers if you like. There's even an area with an oversized sofa set back into a mirror lined alcove thats quite romantic.
One thing you ought to know. The nights that I've been there, it's not been much of a singles spot. It's certainly geared toward couples. A quick scan of the room and you'll understand what I'm talking about. Don't get me wrong, I've seen plenty of groups, but I didn't get the sense that this is any kind of pickup joint. Quite the contrary. It's a very romantic, 2nd/3rd date spot.
Now, onto the particulars. Morgans Bar isn't cheap, it's about average for other bars in the same category such as the those Rande Gerber creations at the W hotels (Underbar, The Library, Cherry, Whiskey Blue), etc... At about $9 bux for mixed drinks and $7 bux for beer (I think...I wasn't drinking beer when I was there), you'd better be prepared to lay down the plastic...but don't let that stop you...if you want to have a great night with those special someones...stop by...and let me know what you think.

Hi there,
Here a short video from one dive in the Netherlands. It's fresh water and poor visibility but I enjoyed working with the new Go Pro Studio app. Enjoy!
06 June 2013 - 12:57 PM
Last night I made this short video from some old footage from 2007. Made during our trip to Cozumel, the Yucatan peninsula and the beautiful island of Holbox (Mexico). We did some regular dives around Cozumel but we were there for the main attractions: Mantas, Whalesharks and Cenotes (Dos Ojos & Batcave).
No HD footage but SD from a photo camera.

About Rob Rawnsley
We both grew up in Arizona and have been married for 20 years. We have an 18 year old son and a 14 year old daughter. We love Chandler. Our home is only a few miles away from our SunBird home.
Rob Rawnsley purchased this house in 2005
Why Rob Rawnsley chose Sun Lakes
This home was purchased by us for Rebecca's mother who very sadly passed away last year from cancer at the young age of 66. She planned to live in this home for the next 20 years and kept it immaculately neat and clean. There is nearly brand new carpeting and the home has been recently repainted. We have made many upgrades and improvements to the home while getting it ready to become a vacation property.
What makes this house unique
Since this home is our family's home and was never intended to be a rental, you will find it equipped with far more items than would be in a typical vacation rental.

About Bob
Your Host 'Bob' has worked a decade overseas assisting people in nations ravaged by wars to rebuild their lives and nation. During the time overseas 'Bob' was called the 'movie man' not because he knew much about movies but because Bob would share a movie with everyone: Sharing a move led to sharing popcorn and sometimes teaching people of other nations how to make popcorn in a theater popcorn machine: Bob left many popcorn machines around the world and many friendly popcorn lovers. During those 10 years, Bob had little time to visit the wonderful home and retreat he wants to share with you. For Bob, relaxation was no longer than 21 days home at Pila Ho'okani Pu'uhonua - 'Music Cave of Refuge' and making Pila Ho'okani Pu'uhonua a special place of refuge to relax, reflect and share. Darlene our co-host would put back in order the projects Bob did not finish. Darlene lived during my long time overseas at my home in the downstairs living area: I am happy to say Darlene still lives in the downstairs unit of the home and can be your best guide to the islands or she can be invisible: Your Choice. Darlene managed a Hostel for more than 3 years that specialized in eco-tourism and hiking (a favorite stop for world travelers). Darlene has been an island resident for 26 years. Now that Darlene is retired it is wonderful to have her around as a friend and resource. I encourage you to consider the advantages of a home with such a great friend and resource: We hope you can relax as we do at Pila Ho'okani Pu'uhonua - with our Hawaii and World knowledge - We truly believe there is no finer place in Hawaii or the World.
Aloha and Mahalo from Darlene and Bob!
Bob purchased this house in 2004
Why Bob chose Kaimu
The area and home have some of the cleanest air in the World. Home location is approximately 1 mile from a weather point used as a baseline reference for World clean air data. There is sunshine almost every day usually when it rains during the day (not very common) the sun will always return. It is very common for late night and early morning showers allowing for a lush green environment during the very sunny days and it makes for very moderate temperatures never (almost never) temperatures exceeding the 80's. With the mild but steady winds, humidity is generally not an issue. The home offers Seclusion, Seclusion, Seclusion with beautiful surrounding areas. Just outside your doorstep are wonderful walking areas and scenic roads: When you return home the home environment and outstanding entertainment option offer almost a vacation in a vacation.
What makes this house unique
View the steam rising from the lava ocean entry and from the front lot view the lava flowing down the mountainside when surface lava is present. SECLUSION! CHANGING VISTA VIEWS! MORNING AND EVENING WALKS! Almost no one knows anyone lives here! Two isolated uncrowded beaches one a 5 minute walk and the other a 15 minute walk. Must be one of the best kept secrets and places on the globe.

5GT Tyre Wear
I purchased my 5GT new in April 2011 she is fitted with Goodyear Excellence on 20 inch rims. It is now June 2012, Just her into Haliwell Jones in North Wales for an oil service at 16k to discover that she requires 2 rear tyres. I didn't believe what I was being told & had no time to argue but signed the disclaimer and took the car away. On closer examination she is demonstrating the same wear pattern as the previous 3 pages so I appeal to those that have gone before me:
Which tyres should I replace these Goodyears?
Have you received satisfactory results from BMW UK?
I await your thoughts & comments!

Hi Christopher,
From all the reports I have seen I felt that the Pirelli's were they way forward, and that's what I had fitted. No regrets yet and I'm now 7500 miles further down the road. Reports I have seen suggest to expect approx 25000 miles on these, but who knows I may get more or less. Only time will tell!
If you look at my previous entries you will see the history of my case. First DO NOT BE FOBBED OFF, insist that the wear is not satisfactory. Refer the dealership to James Bell at BMW UK. He is the customer service manager. I have spoken to him recently and he is well aware that there are a number of unhappy customers with this issue and he should engage with the dealership to resolve the problem, in fact, the dealerships should already be aware to look out for this now. However, expect to have to jump through all the hoops set before you. This is assuming that you kept the tyre pressures correct ( which of course you did! you can argue this by the wear pattern i.e. different wear caused by under and over inflation). These will include a full KDS alignment check (BMW's fancy name for 4 wheel tracking check) expect to be presented with a bill approx £150, but get a quote first and an agreement that if this returns as OK then BMW pay. If this proves to be OK (don't let them tell you that the FRONT wheel alignment was out, this does not cause this wear issue on the REAR tyres) you will be asked to return the tyres to Goodyear for an inspection and report. IMPORTANT NOTE: You DO NOT have to do this via BMW, you can get your replacements from whomever you choose. They should return them to Goodyear free of charge (regardless of the outcome of the inspection). Check around for the cheapest price on the Pirelli's, surprisingly sometimes Kwik Fit do good deals ONLINE that take some beating.
Expect the inspection to take approx 8 weeks. If Goodyear agree that the wear is not normal they will refund you a percentage of the value in line with the amount of unused tread. There was no arguement in my case, from Goodyear and I know that at least one other forum member had the same result.
Document everything, and at the end (if you have a succesful outcome) complain to James Bell that you should not have to go through this rigmaroll, after all you bought the tyres with the car and so your contract is with BMW NOT Goodyear. It should be BMW's issue to resolve with their supplier.
It will take time, but stand your ground and you should be OK in the end.
Goodluck and keep us posted on your progress!

I have been following this thread as I drive 535d on Goodyear tyres fitted so have been checking wear pattern regularly. Car has 26,000 miles and still got 3.5mm tread to rears so loads left in them as I thought. Last night got air pressure warning whilst on motorway, I stopped and quickly checked and looked ok so carried on last 12 miles home driving slowly.
Once stopped found that inside edge of tyre had started to delaminate, as I had BMW tyre insurance phoned to report this morning and agreed to take to local tyre shop as I believed not safe to drive to dealer. Tyre shop found screw in other rear so changed both, however once wheel removed we found that both tyres had 3-3.5mm tread across their width but on inner shoulder worn down to steel bands! So now expect BMW Protect to refuse insurance claim and I have to fight. What amazes me and warn all GT drivers on Goodyear tyres you have to jack car up to find this issue you cannot check properly any other way.

I've been away from this thread for a while but having read the posts, pleased to see some traction gained for other GT drivers with Goodyear issues. As an FYI, I've had Pirelli P zeros fitted for circa 13k miles since my initial Goodyear issues & they are wearing evenly front & rear.
I'm always happy to help share my experience & case details with any members experiencing problems but best to DM me.
Cheers. Rob.

Evidently Goodyear - 0; Pirelli - 1 on the GT
Appears to be entirely a Goodyear Excellence tyre issue as I have run my GT on OEM Pirelli PZeroes with no issue at all and would highly recommend this high performance tyre having had it both on the F07 GT and F13 640d.
245/40/R20 99Y front
275/35/R20 102Y rear
On the GT, Replaced the OEMs at 20,000 miles with 3 mm tread, slightly more wear on the outside edge but this is normal on BMW suspension geometry, with a lot of low speed driving, cornering, parking. While 1.6 mm is legal limit, anywhere lower than 3 mm is a compromise on stopping distances, especially in the wet and coming winter, and road feel and noise.
Got an outstanding deal on Pirelli PZeroes, each at £299/front £318/rear, fully fitted and balanced at Kenilworth Tyre Service in Warwickshire.
Threads like these are very useful to galvanise opinion and evidence so that BMW can deal with the issue. I think the issues with CS are frustrating but must be expected as they do not have the discretion or authority to settle claims, are often unaware of developing issues without a formal brief, and let's face it - a LOT of BMW owners have begun to 'try it on' as costs of servicing and maintaining cars begins to pinch in these times. Wish you all luck and please keep these and other service issues coming for other owners.

Hi everyone I have just registered. Unfortunately I am struck by the tyre wear issue on my GT 535D, discovered it today as a strip of rubber and canvas was flapping into the wheel arch as it peeled away. Yes I'm on Goodyear Excellence RFT's and I was horrified by the possible consequences of this occurrence.
Rob I would like your case information and would PM you but need more posts. So forgive me if I post this again and again but I really would like to get the information asap as I find it unbelievable that BMW are aware of this repeated problem but continue to put owners and their passengers at risk.

Further to my message above my car was registered in April 2011 and has just done 17,200 miles. As with other cases the tyres still have good tread left apart from that inner section.

What really makes me go cold is that my wife drove some 130 miles in the car yesterday a good deal of which was on motorway. If the tyres had deflated whilst on that journey I doubt she'd be here now. They may be run flats but with the 'delamination' effect it seems debatable whether they would have maintained the structural integrity to perform as RFT's.

Hopefully this post will allow me to send a PM to Rob in due course. I would, however be grateful for any direct contact details to use for BMW or Goodyear about this issue. If I have missed any such information in previous posts I apologise and will read them at more length but currently I'm still seething that this known problem has not been addressed. My car was serviced just 3 weeks ago, surely the least BMW could have done was to issue a service direction to check the tyres. It's just a total disregard of their responsibilities.
Thank you for bearing with me on this.

GT Rear Tyre Wear
I have just repllaced all four tyres on my 530D Executive. The rears are the second replacement and the front are the first, all on 20" rims.
I ripped out the first set of rears after 16k miles, inside shoulders of both down to the wires and further on one, as the air was escaping. BMW initally asked me to pay for an alignment check and the full price of the tyres. I eventully got the cost of the alignment back and a contribution from BMW and Goodyear for the tyres. Initially was told that this was unusual but the internet proved different.
The second set of rears were Pirelli ( as advised by BMW) and I got 20K out of them before they supposedly punctured. This was found by BMW when I had the car transported in after one of the fronts had delaminated with lots of bead lashing the wheel arch liner. The fronts had 3/4mm of tread on them but were falling to bits. I wasn't too upset however as by then they had done 60K miles.
Luckily again when the fronts fell to bits I wasn't travelling too fast but was in lane 3 of the M62 so could have been interesting.
There is a whole lot more to this than BMW are admitting to as the states no doubt will testify to.

Hi all.
I'm a newbie here to Bimmer & came across this thread during my search of unreasonable tyre wear on the inner edge of my 04/2010 530 GT with 20" rims.
I've now done approx 24k miles.
It all started back in August 2012 when i had a high speed blowout in 3rd lane M61 which was not a pleasant experience that I would not want to experience again or subject anyone else to, never mind wifey or when the cars full of kids.
I regularly checked tyre pressures (once a month anyway) and never had to top up more than a minimal amount and mostly nothing at all.
Tyres always looked superb across the tread and I was we'll chuffed that the Goodyear excellence run flats were infact nothing but excellent on tyre wear.
Until the above happened that was, the inner edge that was well hidden!
Pulled up on hard sholder & with nothing obvious at that stage, Hobbled off motorway to a known garage approx 1 mile away where I duly purchased a new Goodyear Excellence.
Tyre tech showed me the tyre and I was absolutely gob smacked at the state of the inner edge worn wight down to the steel thread and through at one point with the sidewall detached from the tread surface about 100mm of the tyres circumference.
The other rear tyre was highlighted as almost being in the same condition.
The tyre tech said there was a major problem with the cars camber.
I was happy to hobble home on that one in order to arrange inspection by BMW.
Long story short, bmw took car on my insistence, inspected remaining tyre and photo I presented or the one just replaced.
Wheel alignment performed (free) and printed results presented to me as we'll within BMW tolerances.
I was told that it was a tyre pressure issue and was duly charged for the new tyre so that's just short of £800 for the two.
Checked tyre pressures every two weeks now and not added any air since either of the tyres have been replaces so 10/10 for sealing the tyres!
1st MOT last week at my local non BMW garage where I've been going for years.
Mechanic just finishing when I went to collect and it was still on the ramp.
I was duly invited to inspect the uneven tyre ware on the rear tyres inner edge- needless to say I was pretty pi553d to see this.
Yes that's about 8 months an 3k miles since my blowout and 2 replacements.
If I replace now that's curry takeaway short of £1600 in less than 12 months - oooouch.
Hence my research and request for your assistance in this matter before I launch my case against BMW.
Rob you clearly have some information that may assist in this matter together with the commentaries evidenced in this forum alone.
Anyone's update experiences and most recent forms of resolution with BMW would be very much appreciated in order for me to evidence this to BMW as another case.
I have absolutely no intention of taking this up directly with Goodyear as I believe the book stops with BMW for their supply of goods not fit for purpose.
Changing to Pirelli seems to be a possible solution but I'm damned if that will be at my cost with a brush off from BMW on the grounds of my deficiency to maintain correct tyre pressures.
Thanks for reading this and in anticipation of forum members assistance in resolving this matter further.

GTSpenny. DM sent to you. BMW should have quite a sizeable file relating to this issue given that the GT has been in circulation for quite some time now. Good luck.

Same old, Same old.
I too have suffered this problem.
Worn inside edges leading to blow outs, Goodyears of course.
BMW Sytner High Wycombe said the same thing, "tyre pressures wrong, sporty setup etc...."
I showed him the list of recorded pressures I had for every 2 weeks (OCD on my part ) and he suggested an alignment check. All was good, they gave that to me for free but charged for the 2 rear Goodyear replacements. Sent the old tyres off to Goodyear who replied to me saying they couldn't find a fault.
That was late last year but they weren't used over the winter as I have winter tyres. So, since the Spring and after only 4 to 5 thousand miles the inner edges are again wearing.
I think I will print out this thread and ask them to replace the rears with Pirellis.
Has anyone with 19" wheels suffered the same problem?

The first lashes I ever purchased were (my faves) the Demi Wispies. I have experimented with different brands and adhesives and I always come back to these. They are the most comfortable and look elegant but natural. I am a Cosmetologist and recommend these over any others to my clients.

I love them.
Thoroughly clean your eyelashes and eyelids so they are make-up and oil free.
Check Fit
Lay lash on top of your natural lash. If it extends beyond your lash line, trim the excess with small scissors.
Apply Adhesive
Squeeze a thin line of LashGrip Adhesive along the lash band. A toothpick can be used to spread it evenly. Wait about 30 seconds for adhesive to set.
Apply Lash
Place the lash as close to your natural lash line as possible. Use your fingertip to gently press along the band to secure in place.

Winter Park celebrates Fourth of July
Updated On: Jul 04 2014 07:30:26 PM EDT
Hundreds showed up to the city of Winter Park's 19th annual Olde Fashioned Fourth of July Celebration at Central Park.
The event featured several performances, including the Orlando Cloggers, the Bach Festival Brass Band and Bach Festival Choir.
Elizabeth Rodriguez has attended the event with her family several years in a row and said its quickly becoming a tradition.
"It's good to get together for a fun, free event," she said.
The kid-friendly celebration offered hula-hooping, dancing and a lot of free food.
The city handed out free water, watermelon and 10,000 hot dogs to the crowd.
Laurie Kohs, 80, said the event is a good way to show off her dance moves.
"This is one of the places I can 'pop' and my husband doesn't say stop that," said Kohs.
The celebration also showcased 16 classic cars from the "Muscle Car Network," a classic car club in Central Florida.

Current Financial Health
In recent years, these pages of our Sustainability Report focused on disappointing financial results and our necessary efforts to sustain our business through workforce reductions and streamlined manufacturing. As painful as that process was – and as painful as it remains for those whose jobs were eliminated – it is essential to note that we did not "downsize" our operations as much as we "rightsized" our business. We minimized overcapacity and reduced inefficiencies, resulting in a leaner, but stronger, Ford Motor Company. This positions us to continue the profitable growth we have reported over the past two years so that all stakeholders can benefit from the Company's success.
Prior to our reorganization, we were a company that was global in name only. Today, we operate on a truly global platform, building vehicles that can be adapted for specific regional needs. For example, about 80 percent of the auto parts on our new global Ford Focus are the same around the world; the remaining 20 percent varies to allow for customer flexibility and choice. Flexible manufacturing capabilities enable us to bring products to market with greater speed and greater efficiency than ever before.
The fundamental restructuring of our operations impacted every part of our business – from product innovation and fuel efficiency to labor relations and our interactions with suppliers and dealers. This restructuring helped earn us a "Business Turnaround of the Year" award from the 2010 American Business Awards, which are judged by more than 200 executives from across the U.S. The award recognized our efforts to turn the corner during 2009 in the face of a global economic and financial crisis, as well as unprecedented events in the U.S. automotive industry.
We continued to strengthen our balance sheet in 2010, reducing our Automotive debt by $14.5 billion as we strengthened our business. This included the full $7 billion prepayment of our debt obligations under the Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association, an independent health care trust established as part of collective bargaining between Ford and the UAW.
We remain committed to aligning production with demand. In many cases, this has meant retooling facilities that previously built large trucks and SUVs to instead manufacture smaller, more energy-efficient vehicles. In 2010, we announced more than $9 billion in global investments for future growth, including $4.5 billion in North and South America, $2.9 billion in Europe and $1.7 billion in our Asia Pacific and Africa region. In early 2011, we announced plans to invest $400 million to support new vehicle production at our Kansas City (Missouri) Assembly Plant, reinforcing our commitment to U.S. manufacturing and American jobs.
Our improved financial performance has allowed us to grow our workforce after several years of painful reductions. We have announced plans to add 7,000 new hourly and salaried jobs in the U.S. between 2011 and 2012. We also have been able to bring more hourly jobs (those that were previously performed by suppliers) in-house, exceeding our commitments in UAW collective bargaining. (For more on our workforce, see the Society section of this report.)
Our financial results also generated tangible employee benefits in 2010. We were able to pay profit sharing to approximately 40,600 eligible U.S. hourly employees, for example. We reinstated a 401(k) matching program and awarded 2010 merit increases for our U.S. salaried employees. We also awarded bonuses and profit sharing for U.S. employees in 2011; however, as part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a competitive cost structure, we did not award merit increases for the year.
We expect continued financial progress, driven primarily by our growing product strength, a gradually strengthening global economy and an unrelenting focus on improving the competitiveness of our operations.
Ending Mercury Production
A decade ago, Ford Motor Company was made up of eight brands. Today, we have just two, allowing us to focus all of our attention on our Ford and Lincoln brands. In 2010, we ended production of our Mercury brand. Mercury originally was created as a premium offering to Ford and was an important source of incremental sales. However, as the Ford brand grew in strength – particularly during the last three years – many Mercury customers migrated to Ford, and Mercury's incremental sales were declining as Ford sales increased.
At the time of our announcement, there were no stand-alone Mercury dealerships in North America. We worked closely with our dealers to help them sell their remaining Mercury inventory.

Today's Windsor Star
How to foil the thieves
After having four bicycles stolen from him in the past two years, Larry Leeder is...
Latest News
Ram leads the Chrysler pack
The Windsor StarPublished: Saturday, November 16, 2013
Car sales are revving up red-hot in Canada. Windsor-based Chrysler Canada Inc., in particular, has been selling well. In October, sales rose four per cent from levels a year earlier to 18,131 - its best October sales record since 2002. That was 47 consecutive months of year-over-year sales growth, representing the longest sales streak in the company's history.
While the new year promises some exciting new vehicle launches, Chrysler is marking a significant milestone this fall - the 30th anniversary of the Windsor-built minivan. Chrysler Canada chief operating officer Dave Buckingham said the company "reinvented the North American automotive landscape with the introduction of our Chrysler and Dodge minivans and have maintained segment leadership since day one.
"Chrysler Group has brought a steady flow of new and award-winning products to market in recent years," he continued. "Boasting improved fuel efficiency, great value and options that meet consumers' needs, our products have led us to achieve an uninterrepted streak of sales increases over the past 47 months."
Chrysler is offering some exciting new products among its 2014 line. At the top of the heap is the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel which took top honours at the 2014 Canadian Truck King Challenge.
Chrysler's Jeep brand - one of the most iconic in the world with more than 800,000 units sold globally in 2012 - is another bright jewel in its star-studded lineup. The Jeep
Cherokee and Grand Cherokee with diesel engine are featured on this page.
We also preview the Fiat 500L, Dodge Durango and, of course, the Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country minivans.

Common Dog Stomach Problems
Common dog stomach problems include ulcers, gastritis, and bloat. The classic symptom of stomach problems in dogs is vomiting.The stomach of a dog is a sac-like structure that can hold large volumes of food. The digestive process starts in the stomach. Once eaten, most food leaves the stomach within twelve hours after entering. There are a number of "gastric folds" on the inner surface of the stomach whose function is to grind and digest food. Acids and digestive enzymes are secreted by the inner stomach lining to break down and partially digest the food, which then exits the stomach and enters the small intestine.
The classic symptom of dog stomach problems is vomiting. Depending on the stomach problem, vomiting
can be acute and short-lived, or it can be chronic.

Warning: This piece is in it's roughest state and has not been re-read or edited except for the few backtracks I made during the writing itself. Please keep that in mind while reading and be gentle in your critique should you choose to offer any.
Now I give you "Confronting the Critic:"
I've called a meeting even though I don't need a special occasion for a sit-down with this mouthy little bitch. And she is mouthy, with that angry red slash spread widely across the lower half of her face as she strides militantly into the local Starbucks I've chosen. No local independent coffeehouses for my inner critic. Oh no, this one needs the chichi cred bestowed only by the ubiquitous designer green and white, even if it's from the local yokels of Santa Maria, California.
"Who do I have to blow around here to get a tall quad latte with no foam?" The rhetorical order barks out in time with the snap of her black lacquer Louboutin's against cheap tiles. She points a Vamped-out, stilleto-whittled nail at the first cowering writer to catch her eye. "You! Get my drink and be snappy about it. All right, where is she?"
I refuse to be intimidated or show weakness. I will not quiver like the tar-colored boa lining my critic's expertly tailored suede jacket, nor will cower behind my laptop like every other writer clackity-clacking away at the surrounding tables. I can do this; be strong, tell her to stuff those Grand Canyon-sized doubts up her teacup-sized ass. My stomach is not churning and no - no, dammit! I am not afraid.
At least I wasn't until my critic's eyes narrowed to slits upon spotting me, alone and naked, but for a lukewarm cup of decaf at my table. Now it's all I can do to keep that decaf from becoming a puddle in my seat under the scrutiny of my critic's raptor-like gaze. I wrap my hands around the mug like a penitent in prayer, hoping to gather strength.
"All right," she marches over, hops into the chair before me in a graceful leap to stand with her tiny hands fisted at her waste. "I don't have all day kid. Whaddya want?"
"What do I -- I want you to stop giving me such a hard time! I want you to stop calling me names every time my back is turned, before kicking my ass to the floor, then plowing my face in the mud. I want you to stop being such a cruel bitchface bitch. Is that too much to ask?"
"Actually it is, but I'm not the one you've got the problem with. See your problem is the subconscious, but you're pinning it all on me." She turns to shout over my shoulder: "Where is my goddamn latte, for Christ's sake!"
"Whoa, wait just a minute," I say. "What the hell are you talking about, it's my subconscious not you business?"
"Kid!" she barks at the newbie writer. His limbs tremble as he creeps to our table, my critic's order cradled in both hands. "Your conception took longer than it's taking to get my drink. Now get your ass over here."
Those words spur him to action as he scrambles to our table, nearly tripping over his long legs without spilling a drop of Joan's drink. He dips his head low as he sets the cup before her and for the first time I notice his looks: eyes the color of dark chocolate, a long, straight nose, and full, shapely lips. Too bad he looks about ten years my junior, otherwise I might've been in serious danger of developing a crush.
From the corner of my eye I see Joan glance between us and pray she can't read my thoughts.
"Well don't just stand there, ya little shit. Go tell the manager I'm here and want my chair. Jesus Christ, kids these days..."
As she reaches for her latte, it somehow shrinks to fit perfectly in her hand, yet still remains the exact proportion of a Starbucks grande. The tiny burst of pride in my chest at having one of the coolest inner critics on the block vanishes in a heartbeat though the second she lays that laser sharp glare on my face.
"So you think it's me who's been giving you such a hard time? Well wake up kiddo, I'm not the one in charge around here."
"What are you talking about?" Now I'm getting frustrated. She's the problem and we both know it.
"You think I'm the root of all your insecurities Babycakes? You've got another think coming."
The young newbie has returned, toting Joan's chair in his leanly muscular arms. She waits, tapping that little foot as he switches it out with the chair she's already using.
"Took you long enough squirt. It was almost time for another tune-up with my plastic surgeon." I'm not sure what she sees in my expression, but it provokes this next statement: "Don't give me that look. You're the one who made me shallow as a puddle. Like I said kid, *you're* the one in control here. Not me."
"You can put me in as many steel boxes as you like, but that's not going to solve your problem." I suck in my breath.
"That's right little girl. I know exactly what you have in store for me, but guess what? I keep fighting my way out. You know why? Because you need me. You need me in order to be a better writer and you know it. See, I'm not the one who's so mean because she wants to ensure your failure. That's what you keep making me. No, I'm the one who's telling you: 'Try this. No, I don't think that's working Cat. Cat, you've gotta stop losing your focus; jumping from project to project. Flitting from one idea of what you want to be to another. You've gotta buckle down and commit.' That's me.
"The voice that keeps saying you're 'worthless' and 'stupid,' a 'failure' before you've even tried...well, that's your fear sweetheart, not me. 'Cause you're scared kiddo, really scared and you know why. Hey, stop biting your lip and tell me why your scared."
I hadn't even realized what I was doing, chewing my lip, until Joan told me stop. "I'm scared for lots of reasons."
"You're first and most important, then. Christ you make things difficult. It's a wonder anyone puts up with you." Now she holds up a finger. "See, you put those words in my mouth 'cause that's what you expect to hear. Now tell me, your greatest fear."
"I'm afraid I'll succeed at first, then fail at success because I won't be able to keep it up. I won't be able to stay a success. Somehow, I'll fuck it up because I'm not meant to be a success, I'll let everyone down, they'll all see what I really am and *everyone* will hate me."
"And there you have it, you're honest to God, deepest fear." Joan takes a sip of her latte, leans back and sighs. "Goddamn, but that is good shit. Now, aren't you glad we had this meeting?"
"Not really."
"You're still scared. Well guess what kid, everybody's scared every day of their lives and most people don't let that stop them from living. They just go out there and do it, which is what you have to do too."
"But Joan," I say, leaning forward. "What if I fail?"
"So you fail, so what? Do you know how many people fail on a daily basis? What about that quotation you love so much..."
"About the only real failure being when you don't try."
"Yeah, that one. Remember that shit and you'll be fine."
"You don't know that."
"Of course I don't know that. Nobody knows that. It's what keeps life interesting. Now," Joan hops to her feet latte in hand. "I've got another meeting and a million asses to kiss. We'll be seeing each other again soon, but for now you need to ignore any voices of self-doubt. Got it?"
"Yes Joan."
"And go talk to that cutie newbie writer; he's totally got the hots for you."
"Really?!" The excitement froths in my chest.
"How the hell should I know. I'm not in his head, but the kid didn't shit himself when I started barking out orders, that makes him worth a shot. Go for it. What have you got to lose?"
Joan's sauntering towards the door when she turns in my direction one last time. "In fact, let that be your life mantra for a while kid: what have I got to lose? Take a few risks now and then, you'll be much happier for it."
And with that, she's out the door and on her way to the next meeting, while I'm left to try my luck with the cute newbie writer, shyly ducking his head behind the glowing monitor of his laptop.

Ghost Trick son
Last of Us gonna POUND Ghost Trick
This right here is the single hardest pick in the entire 2nd round. Damn it if these are not 2 of the absolute best games in terms of writing, characters, and art direction. Ghost Trick probably has better music but Last of Us has some of the best voice acting this year which added so much more to that story. I can't think of a single portable experience as satisfying as Ghost Trick was in the past few years. Last Of Us used the concept of a zombie apocalypse to tell one of the most affecting video game stories I've seen. These games are both absolutely beautiful.
Aaaaaaaah why do I have to choose?! Sorry guys. I like zombies more than ghosts in most cases. This is the kind of vote where you need to go with your heart.

For how disparate these two games are overall, they are both narrative-driven experiences with excellent characters, writing, and art. This is a pretty tough choice for me, even with Ghost Trick being one of my favorite games ever. However, The Last of Us doesn't have any cute talking animals, so gotta go Ghost Trick!!!...even though I know it's going to end up losing here :(

Damn Ghost Trick is one of my favorite games of the generation. In a way I wish I could have played TLOU so I can see if it's living up to the hype that people have for it right now.
I feel really bad not having played Ghost Trick and have heard great things about it which further leads to some shame on my part. In an alternate universe where I have played it and one where TLOU doesn't exist I'm sure I'd vote for it.
But guys, Naughty Dog's Magnum Opus is fucking incredible. Uncharted 2 was and still is one of the best games of this generation and before this year was thought to be ND's crowning jewel. They released Uncharted 3 which was great but a step down from 2. ND probably could've called it quits there for this gen and been satisfied with their results of releasing one of the better (if not best) trilogy of games for the generation.
Then they introduce a new IP towards the end of a overlong and stagnant console cycle. Have a post-apocalyptic setting with "zombies" (a tired, and utterly worn-out concept in 2013) and completely blow the fucking doors off the gaming world. They introduce great characters with memorable dialogue. Set the tone and gravity of this harsh world in a fine and poignant way, make stealth and its need not only fun but necessary because the danger is real and combat is something to be avoided.
Oh and it probably has one of the best stories in gaming. And the first 20 mins probably top any game ever, including God of War 3. This may read like hyperbole (and some of it may be) but its hard not to emphasize how fucking good TLOU is.
Sorry Ghost Trick but maybe in Earth 2 you win this round. Here on Earth 1 (or is it?) you do not.
Yeah... Ghost Trick is screwed. And know what? I haven't played The Last of Us. I bet it's pretty great.
There are a couple arbitrary water sections but otherwise yeah it's pretty great.

November 28, 2014
No people were hurt in a Sarpy County fire Wednesday, although a couple of ducks weren't so lucky.
Bellevue fire crews were called out to a trailer fire near Main and Clay Streets.
By the time the department arrived, fire had already engulfed the structure.
It was so far gone, the department didn't work so much to put out the fire, but instead, made sure it didn't spread.

He added he kept a heat lamp inside for the birds
The fire department says though, the cause of the fire is under investigation.

This ottoman is very nice overall. I only have two minor gripes: the material is somewhat less leather-like than I would have preferred, and I was under the impression that the covers were of the "lift and flip" variety. As it is, the side covers are on really nice hinges that stay open when raised. The middle section is not moveable at all. Perhaps I didn't read the description thoroughly enough... These are minor annoyances and we are still very happy with the ottoman. It suits our needs perfectly, reliably hiding all those random game accessories and providing and place to set drinks and rest your feet. The material seems to be getting softer through use, which is a welcome occurrence. Buy it, put your feet up, and enjoy!
Decent quality for the price. Seems sturdy and holds up to people sitting on it. The color online looked a bit lighter than in person and I wish the middle tray flipped over so that you could use it to sit on. Overall a good piece and you can't beat the extra storage.
I really like the extra storage. My only complaint is that I believe it is darker than what I expected. It was delivered fast and was packed very well.
easy to put together ,they are very comfortable to sit on and the perfect height, the colors are just as they look on the site
Very happy with this storage ottoman. In addition, this was my first time buying from overstock.com and I was very happy with their professionalism, price and all around keeping me informed of when I could expect it.
We just bought this ottoman to use as a coffee table in our living room. It is absolutely perfect for our needs. The storage space is just right to house our 9 month old's toys to get them out of the way, and the soft material is also a plus and helps to avoid him hurting himself when he falls. The color and dimensions are spot on -- matching the picture exactly. It is built nicely, and definitely offers good support should you want to use the ottoman as a bench. The only downfall is that the middle section does NOT flip over. The tray is attached and does not move. However, the storage space in this ottoman runs the entire length of the table, offering lots of room.
Excellent product especially for the price. It's very nice looking, no blemishes, and the color was right on target.
