Scene 1:
Location: Courtroom
Bindu asks ashoka to present the allegations against nirankush. ashoka says that before doing that, just like nirankush presented him a gift, he too wishes to do the same, and begs for permission to present it. bindu complies. ashoka summons for the present to be brought. acharya walks in with bid stacks of boxes, aided by servants. all are boggled, and surprised as to whats all this. they are tensed, as it reveals loads of money and jewellery items. nirankush stands flustered. bindu asks where he found it, and whose is this. ashoka says that before doing so, he wishes to apologise, for the lie that he presented, that he got a secret of gondna, as he hadnt, but had a doubt, that it only posisble for the gondna to be so powerful, only when someone
from their administrative council sides with him, and hence he told him, so that someone can alert him, and gondna is forced to react. he narrates everything, hinting that shotting and hunting was never his motive. ashoka says that before he could take in the person attacking him, as there was the accident with Padmavati, he had to rush to her. he then narrates everything what happened, and how he linked with the statements given by previous gondna tax workers, who were arrested earlier. he points out how dakshin had relations with nirankush. Nirankush vehemently denies all the allegations and cites them baseless, saying that he doesnt know anything about gondna, and asks ashoka not to misuse his princely status. ashoka stands surprised and tensed, and again points out that its impossible that he had no clue about this. siamak says that its possible since even he had no clue. then ashoka reminds the week afore incident, wherein he himself confronted niranksuh, and freed his bonded labours. he also presents devi to cite witness to the same. devi says that she along with her father, and many others, were to be submitted to gondna, by nirankush, and that she is thankful to ashoka for having saved her and many others. nirankush says that she is with ashoka, and is lying. kaurvaki says that devi is her friend, and if anything, she wont lie. ashoka says that they need to believe so many evidence, as witnesses. sushim says that noone needs to be called, as noone would lie in the name of the lord. ashoka says that those who fear the lord, wouldnt torture the innocent, which nirankush does, and its an easy, conniving way to get rid of the accusations, and presents himself as a witness, to the atrocities that nirankush had put everyone through, including even his family. nirankush says that at the time, that ashoka mentions, he wasnt even where ashoka claims him to be. ashoka asks why he came here then, to present and justify himself. he reminds all the atrocities. nirankush again denies. vit too affirms this. nirankush denies knowing anything about gondna. sushim too sides with him, and asks ashoka if they have any solid evidence, so that they can believe ashoka. bindu is set to thinking. Bindu says that after nirankush denies the allegations made against him, they need more solid evidence. ashoka hollers that they need evidence and so evidence shall be given. he asks for the lord not being visible, but they still believe and dont demand evidence for that. he screams, and a sack falls on the ground, with the body of dakshin, mutilated and blood covered. all are shocked and aghast to see this. nirankush blurts out that its dakshin. ashoka asks him who is this. nirankush blurts out that this is Dakshin, gondna's aide and then realises what he just did. bindu is enraged. ashoka and kaurvaki feel victorious. sushim and siamak are tensed. he says that he had lied about the attacker being alive, just so he could take nirankush by surprise. he says that he was disappointed after he lost dakshin but then there was a new hope. he narrates how he met acharya in the forest, while he is with kaurvaki. acharya asks him to come along, as all are waiting for him. ashoka complies, and then he asks his horse to reach her safely. she boards atop the horse, and rides off. acharya tells him about his next move now. ashoka says that he lost direction afore, not knowing what to do next, having lost dakshin, but now he has an idea and that his dead body shall help him, to unravel the truth, but by some arrangements with the help of acharya. ashoka tells bindu that he had to do this drama, so that bindu can see for himself that nirankush didnt say a word of truth. bindu asks how dare he do this, and betrayed them, by siding with gondna. nirankush is distraught. bindu says that he knows whats the punishment for betrayal. nirankush apologises profusely, saying that he knew, but dakshin petrified them, and he was too scared to report, but he has no clue of who, or where gondna lives. ashoka then asks his brothers to side with him now too, and their silence can mean only two things, that either they too are with nirankush or else they were idiots. sushim says that they misunderstood him, and that nirankush should be sentenced to capital punishment for betrayal. nirankush is scared and apologises. bindu asks for him to be taken away immediately. he tells nirankush that he is being kept alive, only so that he can lead to gondna later on, and if he doesnt comply, then his death is certain. nirankush keeps pleading while he is taken away. then bindu tells acharya to take all fht taxes in form of money and valuables. ashoka then requests for one way of rectifying mistakes, that he made ten years back, and asks for half of this money to security establishments, and the rest towards the state wealth as taxes, and keep the people of Magadh tax free this year. bindu declares what ashoka wants. all join in unison, celebrating this decision, and praise and hail ashoka. bindu descends down the throne, qand hugs ashoka, while dharma is overwhelmed. bindu tells ashoka that he is proud of him, as he is the most capable son of his. he is shocked, but then ashoka realises that he was merely hallucinating. he finds Bindu actually coming down, and awaits him. but instead of hugging, he says that he must have made gondna weak by this attack, and he is sure that he shall find godnna soon enough. he then leaves the courtroom, while ashoka eyes him overwhelmed. siamak and sushim are enraged.
While nirankush is carried out, mahamatya tells him not to even think about spilling the truth about siamak and sushim, or else be prepared for the cnsequences. he is scared. then Ashoka confronts nirankush and asks him to spill out everything that he knows about Gondna since that would benefit him only, as today or tomorrow, he shall ultimately reach Gondna. after ashoka leaves, Nirankush is taken away, as he is distraught and in a dilemma what to do.
While ashoka walks in the corridor, Kauravaki comes upto him, asking why he did what he did, showing him the kavach on her hands. ashoka says that he has no clue what she is talking about. Kaurvaki confronts ashoka that she remembers partially. she tells him that she was addressed by her name, by him. he pretends to be extremely casual, and says that he does know her name. she is hopeful that he finally recognised her, and waits for him to speak up. The screen freezes on his face.
Precap: Meanwhile, siamak in front of helen, burns with fury and rage, and tells helena, that he wouldnt let his father's sacrifice go in vain, and that he shall avenge his death and kill ashoka, and not spare or leave anyone alive. she eyes him shrewdly.

Women may be misled about the ongoing need for a Pap test – it is NOT going away
FDA approval of a human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is an important step forward in cervical cancer prevention and does create an era of change for cervical cancer prevention. However, the Society of Gynecologic Oncologists (SGO) and the American Society of Cytopathology (ASC) are concerned that recent media reports about the impact of the vaccine on cancer prevention (including a Jan 16, 2007 article by Andrew Pollack titled "Pap Test, a Mainstay Against Cervical Cancer, May Be Fading") could mislead women to believe that the Pap test is no longer a necessary part of their annual visits to their reproductive health care provider.
The Pap test is not fading in importance today nor is it likely to in the near future. The role of continued cervical cancer screening in a post-vaccine era is still crucial. While being a welcome addition to the fight against cervical cancer, it will be decades before the true impact of HPV vaccines is recognized. As part of the HPV vaccine labeling, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notes that they are not 100 percent effective and the "routine Pap screening remains critically important to detect precancerous changes in the cervix to allow treatment before cervical cancer develops."
There have been significant improvements in Pap testing during the past several years. Approximately 90 percent of all Pap tests performed in the United States today are "liquid based." These "liquid based" Pap tests were developed to address significant limitations of the traditional Pap smear. These tests offer better quality and accuracy for women. Multiple trials, peer reviewed published journal articles and FDA approvals have repeatedly demonstrated improved disease detection in a variety of patient populations using these tests. More recently, computer-assisted systems have become available and are widely used. All of this new Pap test technology significantly increases disease detection and reduces false negative rates even further.
HPV testing has also enhanced the accuracy of Pap testing. Especially when a patient's Pap test is returned with inconclusive results. The addition of HPV testing as an adjunct to Pap test for screening in women 30 years or over is effective for triaging very low risk women to longer screening intervals without significantly changing the effectiveness of cervical cancer screening. The tests in combination, not separately, offer effective conservative management and potentially, cost-effective benefits.
Utilizing HPV testing as a primary screening technique alone has many hurdles to overcome, including lack of prospectively collected clinical trial data and FDA approval to support HPV testing alone for this purpose. The majority of women, as much as 80 percent will be infected with HPV at some point in their lifetime. Since most of these HPV-infected women will not develop cervical disease, a positive HPV test alone does not offer significant clinical value. The high prevalence of HPV infection alone was well described in a recent article by Dunne et al. in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA. 2007;297:813-819). Additionally, much of the data used to promote HPV as a primary screening tool is data based on use of the traditional Pap smear, not the new "liquid based" Pap tests.
Pap testing remains a well-studied, reliable, time-tested and cost effective method of preventing cervical cancer. Since the Pap test went into widespread use in the U.S., cervical cancer deaths have dropped 74%. To suggest that this test, which is one of the best, cost-effective cancer screening test success stories in medical history, is somehow going away, is irresponsible without substantial data sets to prove other methods alone would improve upon these outcomes. SGO and ASC both encourage women to schedule their annual Pap tests today.

Dubai welcomed the New Year with an unprecedented spectacle – the world's highest fireworks at Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building by Emaar Properties.
The 828 metres (2,716.5 ft) high Burj Khalifa was the centre of attention for a global audience as it marked New Year's Eve with a spectacular laser-lights-fireworks show, telecast live to over 2 billion people around the world.
Close to half a million Dubai residents and visitors witnessed the New Year's Eve Gala from Burj Park, an island set on The Burj Lake opposite Burj Khalifa, and from several other vantage points across Downtown Dubai.
The celebration, which also marked the first anniversary of the grand inauguration of Burj Khalifa, enveloped the whole of Downtown Dubai, the 500-acre mega development, which is anchored by the tower. The community was a sea of humanity, as people arrived to witness the spectacle several hours in advance.
Described as 'The Centre of Now,' for its diverse showcase of high-end lifestyle destinations including malls, hotels, homes and offices, Downtown Dubai created a stunning spectacle with lights and fog effects.
To mark the New Year's Eve Gala, The Dubai Fountain, the world's tallest performing fountain overlooking Burj Khalifa, also hosted a special fire-water-music show, where fire elements and water sprouts were seamlessly integrated for the first time in the region.
Mr Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman, Emaar Properties, said: "The New Year's Eve Gala at Burj Khalifa has positioned Dubai as the must-visit destination to celebrate new beginnings. The show easily qualified as of the finest spectacles anywhere in the world, and we are confident that in the coming years, Dubai will be the place that visitors from across the world will choose to celebrate the New Year."
In addition to the fireworks spectacle, set to the melody of a specially composed music, there were display screens across Downtown Dubai for visitors to enjoy live telecasts of New Year's Eve celebrations from different parts of the world.
Visitors were also entertained with the after-party held at At the Top, Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest observation deck with an outdoor terrace – most recently voted as 'Best Tourist Attraction at the Best in Dubai' event. Guests attending the At the Top party had the privilege of celebrating the first day of the New Year taking in magnificent views of the city at night.
A fully-established community with world-class homes, commercial space and the world's first Armani Hotel Dubai, Burj Khalifa is now 'A Living Wonder.' It anchors Downtown Dubai, the most definitive lifestyle development in the city, which also features two malls - The Dubai Mall, the world's largest shopping and entertainment destination, and Souk Al Bahar.
The Dubai Mall is the world's largest shopping center with 1,200 retail stores including 160 F&B outlets, and features Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo; the Middle East's first and only SEGA Republic; a dedicated children's edutainment centre KidZania®; an Olympic-sized Dubai Ice Rink and Dubai's largest megaplex, Reel Cinemas.
In addition to homes and offices, Downtown Dubai features six world-class hotels – Armani Hotel Dubai; The Address Downtown Dubai; The Address Dubai Mall; The Palace - The Old Town; and Al Manzil and Qamardeen at The Old Town. Emaar Boulevard, a 3.5 km boulevard, is another attraction at Downtown Dubai and hosts several lifestyle activities.

Israel's Labor government survived its first major parliamentary challenge Monday when a series of no-confidence motions over controversial statements on religious issues made by Education Minister Shulamit Aloni were voted down 59- 51.
An advance deal to safeguard the coalition made the actual vote something of an anti-climax and shifted the legislature's attention to a moment of drama staged by an opposition politician in the presence of television cameras.
Veteran Knesset member Menachem Porush of the haredi, or fervently Orthodox, United Torah Judaism bloc demonstratively tore his shirt as a symbol of Jewish mourning over Aloni's alleged blasphemies.
Aloni, in public statements several weeks ago, disparaged the literal version of biblical Creation and proposed that the name of God be omitted from a memorial prayer. Porush said that Jewish law requires observant Jews to perform the "kriah" (tearing) ritual over such heresy.
But he was nonplussed when, during the Knesset debase, a Labor Party negotiator disclosed that Porush had repeatedly met with Aloni in secret and veritably "begged" her to retain responsibility for the haredi education system and not delegate it to her deputy, Rabbi Moshe Maiya of the rival haredi party Shas.
"Which Menachem Porush are we to believe?" asked Health Minister Haim Ramon, "the one who tore kriah here over Aloni's blasphemies or the one who begged her to keep haredi schools under her wing?".
Ramon accused United Torah Judaism and the National Religious Party, both of which are in the opposition, unlike Shas, of "speaking in the name of God but not meaning it."
"Some of you are dying to enter this government that you criticize so severely. Others are simply determined to tear it down," he said.
Observers attuned to political nuance heard this as an indication that both Porush and government leaders are keeping that door open for United Torah Judaism to join the coalition in the future.
Further hints of this came in remarks by Porush before his dramatic presentation, in which he praised the policy goals set forward by Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin for the government.
In turn, Police Minister Moshe Shahal of Labor, speaking for the government, lauded Porush as a skilled and dignified parliamentarian who spoke with "pathos and feeling."
Shahal compared the speech of the United Torah Judaism leader favorably with those of two other opposition speakers: Ariel Sharon of Likud and Gonen Segev of Tsomet, who had argued on behalf of no-confidence motions related to security and diplomatic issues.
By pre-arrangement, Shas' six Knesset members stayed away from the Knesset for the no-confidence vote on Aloni's remarks. Their absence was in line with the terms of an agreement Labor had worked out earlier in the day with its two coalition partners, Shas and Aloni's Meretz bloc.
As part of the same agreement, Rabin convened a brief Cabinet meeting before the Knesset debate to warn the feuding ministers against further "upsets" in relation between them.
Statements made at the Cabinet session by the prime minister and by Aloni were read aloud from the Knesset podium by Ramon, who has played a mediating role in the coalition crisis.
In her statement, Aloni expressed "great regret" if her comments had offended the Orthodox community. She reiterated her own and her party's desire for the continuation in office of the present government and pledged to work together with its other components in "mutual respect, mutual consideration, mutual listening and good will."
Rabin, in his statement, said that although he deplored Aloni's remarks, he had turned down Shas's request to remove her from the education post after she expressed her regret and provided assurances about the future.
He vowed he would use his "legal powers" if "upsets" such as those that had "plagued the Likud government" before him occurred in future.
The accord involving the left-wing Meretz and the haredi Shas was finalized at noon by the Shas Council of Torah Sages. In a unanimous decision, it instructed the Shas faction to abstain in the no-confidence vote, in light of the understandings reached with the prime minister.
Among these understandings is a role for Deputy Education Minister Maiya in directing Jewish heritage curricula in non-Orthodox state schools; arrangements for periodic lectures by rabbis in such schools; and, in a non- educational issue, tighten kashrut regulations for imported meat.
Observers in the Knesset were divided over the long-term significance of the day's events. Some agreed with Ramon, who said the government had emerged from the crisis "strengthened." Others predicted further discord ahead between the haredi Shas and the secular Meretz.

Bobby Johnson has turned the corner at Vandy
Seems funny to say considering we are only 3-4 at this point in the season. But that win over Georgia was more than just a win. More than just a win over a ranked team. More than just a win over a ranked team on the road. This was a turning point for this team.
In previous years, Vandy may hang tough with a good team. May even pull an upset. But the very next week theyd get blown out by a mediocre conference team. Those days are over.
After finishing 5-6 last year with a once in a lifetime player like Jay Cutler, lots of people thought this would be a return to normalcy. A return to struggling to keep up with the bottom dwellars in the conference. But so far this year, we've played every conference game close. The only blowout loss was a 20 point defeat at Michigan(who currently is undefeated and likely the 2nd best team in the nation). The three conferences losses have been by a combined 12 points. And quite frankly, Vandy had a legitimate shot to win all of those games. But it remained the same ole vandy because they couldnt finish the deal. But that changed on saturday. We finally got over the hump and beat a good team on the road.
Last year when Steve Spurrier returned to the SEC to coach South Carolina, he commented one of the big differences in the conference is the talent level at Vandy has gone up. We have SEC caliber player littered across the team. I still think Bobby Johnson is a little too conservative for his own good at times, but he sure can recruit at this school. Chris Nickson, Cassen Jackson-Garrison, Earl Bennett, Sean Walker, Ryan Hamilton, Jon Goff, etc, etc... All of these players could make SEC rosters.
The talent keeps going up. The attitude is changing. The next step is finally get that bowl monkey off our back. who knows, maybe itll by decemeber.

Kuala Lumpur, Jan 17 (IANS) It was a mixed day for Indian shuttlers at the Malaysia Open Super Series. Women's top seed Saina Nehwal cruised into the quarters while India's top male shuttler, P. Kashyap, went down fighting in the second round here Thursday.
Saina was in blistering form as she dispatched Hong Kong's Pui Yin Yip in straight games 21-12, 21-9 in a match that lasted just half hour.
The Olympic bronze medallist will now take on Nozomi Okuhara of Japan in the quarterfinals.
There was disappointment for Kashyap as he went down to sixth seed Jan O Jorgensen of Denmark 17-21, 14-21 in the men's singles event.
The Olympic quarterfinalist struggled with an injury on his right leg that seemed to hamper his movement. Kashyap had pulled his muscle in his first round victory Wednesday.

NEIGHBORHOOD REPORT: LONG ISLAND CITY; Groceries Everywhere, But Not a Delivery to Be Had
By JEFF VANDAM
Published: March 27, 2005
On the Web site for Fresh Direct, the online grocery that will deliver everything from ginger root to duck breast to your doorstep, there are small asterisks next to the ZIP codes 11101 and 11109, the two codes that represent Long Island City in Queens. When most shoppers from that area try to place an order, the site replies, ''Unfortunately, we do not currently deliver to your neighborhood.'' Those customers are then told they can pick up their orders themselves at Fresh Direct headquarters.
Yet those headquarters are also located in 11101, an oddity that has not gone unnoticed by local residents. Although the company does not deliver to numerous parts of the city, it does deliver to many others, from large swaths of Manhattan to Park Slope in Brooklyn to Bayside in Queens. That Fresh Direct does not serve most of its home neighborhood has made some Long Island City residents miffed -- especially given that the community has no full-service supermarket.
''Shame on them for not providing a much-needed service to their own community, where grocery stores are in short supply,'' one person wrote on the queenswest.com online bulletin board. ''They do a disservice to the community, so I say: BOOOOOOOOOO.'' The fact that Fresh Direct delivers to a small part of the neighborhood -- two high-rise residential buildings on the East River called Citylights and Avalon Riverview -- adds insult to injury, say some residents of the unserved parts.
But things will change. The widespread discontent has spurred several thousand people in Long Island City to log on to the Fresh Direct Web site and request delivery, said Adrian Williams, the company's vice president for transportation. As a result, the company will start delivering to the rest of the neighborhood in the fall.
Mr. Williams said Fresh Direct sets up delivery zones based on local demand. ''At the outset of operations Manhattan was the primary demand area,'' he said. ''Over the past two years, areas of Queens and Brooklyn have also demonstrated demand, and Fresh Direct has initiated service there accordingly.''
Is Long Island City mollified? ''I just wonder why it took them so long to get to delivering,'' said Lee Ann Westover, a singer for a group called the Lascivious Biddies who has lived in Long Island City for seven years. ''The truck goes one block from my house and doesn't go to my house. They could stop on the way, or throw it out the window.''
She added: ''When they do start delivering to me, I may use it sometimes. But I don't know. I'm kind of mad.''
E&I Deli and Grocery may not be happy, either. Given the absence of Fresh Direct service and the absence of a real grocery store in Long Island City, E&I, a full-service deli on Vernon Boulevard, has done a healthy business, with lines at the checkout counter sometimes stretching back into the store. What will happen to the lines come fall remains to be seen. JEFF VANDAM

Putting the U.S. food supply at risk, the Food and Drug Administration has generally failed to promptly initiate recalls, allowed some food companies to continue shipping despite failed inspections and often ignored its own procedures.
That's the conclusion of the FDA's Office of Inspector General in a new report, based on a year-long evaluation of study of 17 food recalls from 2007 to 2008. The study included a variety of food recalls, including those involving cheese, mussel meat, fish and four separate recalls of fresh cantaloupes from Honduras.
The inspector general's office directed the FDA to review the report as it implements the Food Safety Modernization Act.
The FDA, the produce industry and other food companies need to improve recall practices, said Dave Gombas, senior vice president for food safety and technology at the Washington, D.C.-based United Fresh Produce Association.
"Because food recalls are such a rare event, most companies aren't prepared to do an effective recall," Gombas said. "It is a weakness for both FDA and food facilities."
Amy Philpott, senior director with Watson Mulher LLC, Washington, D.C., said companies want to do the right thing.
"I'm not convinced it matters if (food recall guidance) is mandatory."
Produce companies can face different expectations from regional FDA food recall coordinators depending on what part of the country they live, she said.
Gombas said he recently counted about 60 fresh produce recalls in 2010. He said every fresh produce marketer should take steps to be ready for a recall.
"It is the difference between a painful recall and a very painful recall," Gombas said.
Joe Pollock, category manager for Wuhl Shafman Lieberman Corp., Newark, N.J., said the company has well-documented recall procedures. The company was one of four involved in the 2008 recalls of Honduran cantaloupes, along with Firebaugh, Calif.-based Legend Produce, Gonzales, Calif.-based Taylor Fresh and Jard Marketing Corp., Lawrence, Mass.
"It is pretty clear-cut," Pollock said. "We know everything down to the pallet and the case."
Pollock said timing is a key issue for FDA. As soon as it finds a problem with a particular lot, the agency must notify the supply chain immediately.
"Anything before (the product) gets out to the general public would be beneficial," he said.
Philpott, who works with companies on recall procedures and policies, said she's worked with companies that were informed of three-week-old FDA tests.
However, Philpott said she believes the study would find improvement if it looked at data from the past couple of years.
"If the same report were done for 2009, 2010 or this year, I think you would see big improvements," she said. "I think we have seen drastic improvements in food companies' abilities to respond quickly because they are preparing."
Development and implementation of food recalls was not adequate to ensure the safety of the U.S. food supply, according to the report, and the FDA often didn't follow its own procedures, according to the report.
Some firms did not promptly initiate recalls, according to the report, but Philpott said her experience has been that produce industry firms generally respond very quickly to a positive test for pathogens.
Other problems included weak and inaccurate recall communications from companies conducting recalls, as well as incomplete recall status reports that the firms are supposed to provide the FDA.
The FDA failed to conduct inspections or obtain complete information on the contaminated products in 14 out of 17 recalls, according to the report. The agency also didn't conduct any audit checks of consignees in five of the 17 recalls and conducted untimely and incomplete audit checks in the other 12 recalls.
The agency also failed to review the recall strategy of firms and promptly issue notification letters to firms covering the review results, according to the report.
Finally, the FDA did not witness the disposal of the products or obtain the required documentation showing that the products were disposed of in 13 of 17 recalls.
The FDA responded, saying the food recall policy has been in place since 1978, and future proposals may include using third parties to conduct some aspects of recall audits and "bolstering" guidance.
The key part of preventing foodborne illness is done with research and best practices throughout the supply chain, Philpott said.

Agreed, I still say the Cobra, but it comes down to personal preference. I'm not saying I don't like the Mach, I just like the Cobra better
Coming from a 04' cobra owner, if had the decision between the 01' Cobra or new Mach I would go Mach. Makes a lil' more power and I hate the IRS.
Don't 01 Cobras look almost identical to 01 GT's? Cept for the Badging?
A Mach stand out MUCH more than a 01 Cobra. How many stangs you see with a shaker popping through the hood? Plus the Spoiler and the Chin spoiler. Annnnd the wheels.
I know 01 cobras had their own wheels but they also offered the same wheels for gt's just without the cobra center cap.
Same for you
Why don't you go play in your own area?
Both are sweet cars, if the '01 Cobra is a lot cheaper then the Mach then get the Cobra but if they're close in price I'd say get the Mach since it's newer but that's just me. It's easier to get the Mach into the 12's N/A especially with the live rear axle but the Cobra is a little more boost friendly with lower compression. I hardly ever see either of them on the road, more V6s, GTs and '03-'04 Kebras then anything else around here. Not that it makes a difference because Mustangs are everywhere anyway
Get the damn Mach, it's a superior car, no other car in the world can touch it, all the Mach I
IMHO, I tend to think that the Mach is actually more "GT-like". Its got the same front fascia, rear fascia, rocker panels, wing and foglights and of course the same taillights. I'd bet the non-Mustang enthusiast average joe would confuse a 35th anniversary GT with a Mach 1.
With the Cobra, you've got the different front fascia, rear fascia (Cobra lettering), round foglights and the amber turn signal taillights. Less obvious is the stance of the rear with the IRS and the lower hanging exhaust pipes. I guess its all depends on the observer but I think I could see the Mach being mistaken for a regular GT before a 01 Cobra.
However, that said, the Machs are nice-looking cars. If I didn't have the 01 Cobra, I'd probably consider one...especially the white. I like the black decals and accents against the white. The constrast is very striking.
That's what I thought, if I didn't know Mustangs, I'd think a Mach was just a normal Mustang. My wife didn't know the difference until I explained it to her. She knew what a Cobra was though. This was when I had a 00 GT.
Well I say the Mach 1 is a better buy all the way around.
Seats are better
No IRS
I got a killer deal on my 01 Cobra with 12K miles, so I bought it..............
Yes, it makes less HP then a Mach 1
I had to chip the car to wake it up
Exactly how are the seats better since they're both based on the same basic structure? And the IRS is not always necessarily a liability. I will agree that the Mach is a good performance deal for 03+ but I wouldn't say it was head and shoulders above the 01 Cobras in performance at all. Its somewhat more torquey but that can be overcome.
Not to mention insurance is cheaper on the '01 Cobra. May not be as much of a factor with you older guys, but for a youngin' like me it makes a huge difference. Plus I got my Cobra with 6400 miles on it, so it is basically new.
The Mach is just a GT with more crappy plastic (including the shaker) and two more cams. You can spot a Mach a mile away by the crappy plain black ABS spoiler. And the wheels look like crap too. Definately my least favorite of the V8 cars.
I phased all the plastic crap off my 99 GT. If I had a Mach I'd have my work cut out for me, that is for sure.
Mach = Poor Man's Cobra
Shaker is not plastic it's metal but does have a plastic chin spoiler (which a lot of Stangers install on their car anyway), other then that it has almost the same amount of crappy plastic as any other 99+ Stang. As far as plain ass black ABS spoiler is concerned well that's your opinion but it is a nod to the originals back in the 60's and 70's same with the stripes, that's why it's a heritage model. I agree though the wheels are craptastic.
It may be the poor mans Cobra but it does a fine job of running with an LS1 stock something the pre' '03-'04 Cobras couldn't do. Anyway, enough of the bickering, both are great cars like I said, I don't think you could go wrong with either one, at this point since they're both used, I'd find one with the lowest mileage to price ratio and just go for it.
I was only stirring the pot. I think the Mach is a great car and fills a good spot in the line up. As far as the spoiler, how about drum brakes and 4 lugs then?? Again, just stirring the pot.
Both are great cars and both have plenty of crappy plastic, its just a ford thing. They both stand out and u dont see to many of them on the road( at least here in the sticks of central florida) Thechoice is yours. cant go wrong either way!
And as far as the mach being a poor mans cobra. im poor and i have a cobra!

Ratings Increase / Decrease: 2009-10 Season vs. 2008-9 Season
The ratings losses at NBC vs. last season are looking increasingly grim, much worse than in the fall when the TV media were all over them for the Lenopocalypse. But now that NBC has issued a Leno mea culpa the bashing has ended, yet NBC's ratings are comparatively worse! Of course, the Winter Olympics will boost NBC's averages tremendously, but I'll separate the Olympics ratings out as best I can and report "with" and "without" results here. Don't expect the rest of the TV media to do that.
Fox's season ratings comparisons vs. last season will likely continue to slip back towards even, but not as fast as I might have expected. American Idol is down just 5% in adults 18-49 ratings vs. last season so far. That's good news for Fox and bad news for Idol haters.
CBS, ABC continue down across the board vs. last season. The Super Bowl will give CBS' numbers a big boost, likely into the positive range vs. last season. Count on the credulous TV media to ignore that and write "CBS is doing just fine" stories without looking at the numbers closely.
The CW's ratings averages are mostly flat compared to last season, but they would be about 20% ahead of last season across the board if they'd just kept their Monday-Friday numbers steady because of the automatic boost to their ratings averages just by dumping Sunday nights. Compared to last season, the CW's Monday-Friday ratings averages are down, but don't be surprised if the CW's crack PR troops can pull one over on the credulous TV media.
Season To Date Ratings
Fox remains in a season tie with CBS for adults 25-54 and widened its leads for adults 18-49 and 18-34 , while CBS seized the season to date viewership lead and my guess is will not let it go before the end of the season.
If it weren't for the boosts that the Winter Olympics will give NBC and the Super Bowl will give CBS, Fox's clean sweep of the main adult viewing demos would be all but assured. As it is, we'll have to see how those big sporting events reshape the averages going forward. The Super Bowl will boost CBS's season averages by about 10% from a single night.
You can see past week's broadcast network primetime season to date average TV ratings results here.
Each rating point is a percentage of the US TV population in that demographic group and equals: 2.90 million viewers, 1.32 million adults 18-49, 0.68 million adults 18-34 and 1.24 million adults 25-54.
Note that the chart includes RATINGS not VIEWERSHIP as was typical in our weekly network ratings posts prior to July, 2009.

En Provence and L'Orange En Provence 2016 Quiltville Mystery Quilts
Posted By drsao on December 26, 2016
I am having lots of fun making Bonnie K Hunter's 2016 Quiltville Mystery Quilt – En Provence this year. My second one is being called L'Orange EnProvence (because it has some orange fabric in it.)
I have been making Bonnie's mysteries since her VERY FIRST ONE – Carolina Crossroads! I liked it SO MUCH that I made two!
I have continued to make two of Bonnie's mysteries each year – with the idea that I could give one away and keep one. As it turns out I love her quilt designs so much that I have ended up gifting most of them – they are that special! I only want to give away quilts that are SPECIAL!
This year I am making two again – En Provence and L'Orange En Provence…..and here are my first five parts!
To see what others are doing – visit Bonnie K Hunter's blogspot!

Durban - Three men appeared briefly in the Umlazi Magistrate's Court in Durban on Tuesday in connection with the murder of a local school principal.
National Prosecuting Authority spokeswoman Natasha Ramkisson-Kara said Mfundi Sibiya, Lindani Mkhize and Mhlengi Luthuli were charged with conspiracy to commit murder.
Cyril Herbert Nkosinathi Zondi, 46, the principal of Nyon'eMhlophe Primary in the Ugu educational district, was shot five times at his home in Umlazi last May.
Zondi was also regional chairman of the SA Democratic Teachers' Union in the lower South Coast region.
According to Sadtu, Sibiya is the KwaZulu-Natal education department's district director for Ugu while Luthuli is a principal at a school.
Ramkisson-Kara said the matter has been postponed to 7 April for a formal bail application.
Two other people have been arrested in connection with Zondi's killing.
Ramkisson-Kara said Mbuzo Makoba and Andile Welcome Zulu had already been charged with murder and they had been refused bail.
They were expected back in court on April 24 for their indictments to be served.

MADISON, Wis. – Taylor Mehlhaff, junior placekicker for the Wisconsin football team, has been named a semifinalist for the 2006 Lou Groza Award, which will be presented to the nation's top kicker.
The three finalists for the Lou Groza Award will be announced on Monday, Nov. 20, and will be honored at the 15th Annual Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award Banquet on Tuesday, Dec. 5, at the Palm Beach Gardens Marriott. The 2006 Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award winner will be announced on Thursday, December 7 during the ESPN Home Depot College Football Award Show in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
Mehlhaff, the reigning Big Ten Special Teams Player of the Week after connecting on three field goals in last week's win over Illinois, has made 11 of 13 field goal attempts this season, including his last seven straight. He leads the Big Ten in field goal percentage (84.6) and is tied for the league kick-scoring lead (7.7 ppg). In addition, Wisconsin leads the Big Ten with 33 touchbacks.
Mehlhaff, a native of Aberdeen, S.D., hit a career-high 51-yard field goal at Purdue earlier this season. He has made all 36 point-after attempts this season, as well.
Wisconsin's last Lou Groza Award semifinalist was Vitaly Pisetsky, who went on to be a finalist in 1999.
The Lou Groza Award, now in its 15th year, is named for NFL Hall-of-Fame kicker Lou Groza, who played 21 seasons with the Cleveland Browns. Groza won four NFL championships with Cleveland and was named NFL Player of the Year in 1954. Nicknamed "The Toe," Groza was one of the first people to truly make kicking an art form, and he helped usher in to football the idea that a player could be used exclusively for kicking.
