Chevy Volt Battery Cost, In Summary, nobody actually understands exactly what it costs to replace A Volt's battery. However, the34,000 advised to them from the trader appears unrealistic. Rather the previously cited $500 each kWh estimate appears more logical, which might bring the expense of replacement the Volts battery to $8,000. Kelly said looking at exactly what a trader charges could be misleading, as GM's plan for servicing Volt batteries generally entails repairing instead of replacing entirely.
The dash lately issued what could only be predicted, "The Orange Exclamation Point Of Death," that on those Toyotas comes in the kind of a large, bright triangle along with a nonstop 120-decibel screeching sound that will encircle your very soul. The Prices indicated on the Website are N't what we'd charge Our traders or owners to get a replacement battery. Additionally, he noticed that one price tag can't be true for every single Volt owner.
Battery packs in hybrid and electric vehicles are usually priced from the per kilowatt hour (kWh), that was formerly considered to be approximately $500 per kWh. It ends up to $144.11 a kilowatt hour to substitute the 16 kWh battery at the Volt in GM Parts Online's cost. However, Kevin Kelly, director of electrification technology communications for General Motors, educated ABG who GM Parts Online isn't the official GM parts supplier and their costs don't reflect what they'd charge a client.
Hybrids generally have taken a market journey not overly different from this Prius. In the bizarre hobbyist, to the mainstream automobile buyer, straight back to amateurs who are more interested in technology compared to tightwaddery. Hybrids are money-losers for almost all automakers, as well as gasoline prices shrunk under two dollars a gallon, it is looking as the lull in demand will endure for some time.
In Reality, 80 percent of hybrid versions Which Were in the Marketplace Over the previous 15 years is now defunct, and the earnings of this brand new 2016 Toyota Prius are over 10% from this past year. If the client wants to have their battery life fixed outside The guarantee, the price to them would change based on what has to be repaired or replaced.
Chevy Volt Battery Cost Replacement
Autoblog Green recently stumbled upon a few ridiculously cheap Chevrolet Volt replacement batteries available by famous online GM parts provider, GM Parts Online. The batteries are available to get a low-low $2,994.64, however using an internet discount, that number drops down to $2,305.88. That sounded a little too good to be true, therefore that they called a trader who informed them replacing the battery package could cost up to $34,000.
As a part of this replacement and repair procedure, we supply The choice of utilizing refurbished batteries that give the client with comparable or greater range performance since they'd expect from their battery system. The large end of that which you supplied isn't consistent with what we'd expect the client to cover. The EPA estimates that the Volt's fuel market at 106 mpg at Within a decade and 150,000 miles, you need to save approximately $11,000 versus the ordinary automobile with an internal combustion engine which currently gets about 25 mph.
The New publicly stated target comes months to the federal launch of this new 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV, a pristine electrical having an estimated 238 kilometers of variety Available for approximately $30,000 following a federal income tax credit. For the next generation of hybrids and electric vehicles to be successful, they will need to show they are not just the best cars to have depending on the bottom line, but also according to this magical elixir called functionality.
From nowadays. Through no real fault of their own, they have recently lost the press popularity competition to electric vehicles, which have been the "new" brand new reply to the future of continuing transport. In other words, before you have a deeper dip and look squarely at the reality that no real electric car has ever made a dime in profit. Told them that the cost could range from $3,400 to $34,000 to substitute a drive engine Replacement battery. They also said that they had been unsure exactly what replacing the driveway See what is wrong with the package to find a true quote.
Chevy Volt Battery Charge Cost
Thus, it's difficult for us to let you know precisely what the cost is to the client since it varies depending on which may have to be replaced or repaired. Because of this, the heart charge would change." A sharp-eyed ABG reader remarked the lithium modules, where a lot of the expensive bits are, aren't contained in the2,305.88 Volt batteries listed available on GM Parts Online. Oops.
Electric Automobiles, while popular and Profiting from Ample Subsidies, collectively constitute less than one percent of the new vehicle market. Range stress, development expenditures, and low gas costs are entirely restricting the requirement for anything which has a battery nowadays. Remember that this savings depends on how you drive if You recharge the vehicle. Electric companies frequently offer more affordable prices in the late night to early morning. It is possible to readily time an electrical battery's charging interval to benefit from the savings.
Hybrids Enjoy my once-prized Prius built a next–right up If this early generation hybrid mine had lasted outside 231,000 miles, then I would likely still be driving now. So could other Prius owners that have returned to driving automobiles with traditional powertrains. The customer's desire to purchase and maintain a hybrid vehicle is generally predicated on advantages outweighing the fiscal threat at cost time; however, as Wallace points out, purchasing decisions are not entirely economic.
One way GM believes it could push the gain line with electrical GM states that price now is roughly $145 — a guess that the Detroit automaker says leads the business. Early prices on EV battery cells have been greater than $200 per kilowatt hour. In 2015, GM said it estimated it would hit $100 from 2022.
Irrespective of the improvements automakers are made in Hybrids and electric vehicles are in the middle of attempting to change their picture, from an automobile that brings technophiles, tree huggers, and tightwads, to some car that may provide a greater degree of functionality, reliability, as well as enjoyable.
Chevy Volt Battery Life And Replacement Cost
Last year Tesla Inc., that will launch its own entrance electrical Condo the Model 3 starting in the next quarter, said its own battery package price per kilowatt hour has been significantly less than $190. Tesla has signaled that will fall because it benefits from this scale in its own Gigafactory at Nevada. Research in January discovered the price of an ordinary battery package has fallen from over $1,000 per kilowatt-hour to an estimated $227 each kilowatt-hour this past year.
In the 14 Decades and 231,853 miles, it required my Prius battery To eventually begin to perish, understanding of the hybrid has shifted radically. Anticipate history to repeat itself once you attempt to figure the number of miles you are in a position to place in your new Volt or even Prius–your results may vary. However, the batteries may last more than the entire idea of your vehicle.
Restricted accessibility in a small number of nations. The little crossover, built in GM's Orion Assembly Plant at Orion Township, will soon be accessible to order nationwide this summer. GM's possession of its battery chemistry and incorporating the battery package with its own electrical motors too is helping push EV cost back. The business claims economies of scale since it deploys more EVs in China will help with the price.
GM also sees scale chances through the usage of Autonomous EVs. The carmaker has stated it considers the best platform for Autonomous ride-sharing vehicles will arrive in the shape of a pure electrical such However, Ford Motor Co.'s opinion of this Perfect first application It plans a totally autonomous hybrid Vehicle for industrial use at a ride-hailing or ride-sharing agency in 2021 And is analyzing hybrid Ford Fusions.

We are National Advisors for Self-Directed Wealth Building Specializing in Self Directed IRA Plans
Located near Austin Texas, we are a consortium of financial professionals whose expertise is Self-Directed IRA's and the advantages available in the tax code; and how to utilize retirement plans to employ non-traditional assets such as real estate.
We Specialize In Real Estate IRA Investing
Our specific area of expertise is in the alternative investment options for retirement plans such as Self-Directed IRA, SEPs, Simple IRAs and 401(k) plans. We have broad experience in Real Estate investing, and related businesses using self-directed retirement plans to:
These plans provide tax-deferred growth, and allow the individual(s) to gain checkbook control over assets and monies.
Similar to a traditional financial advisor, AES works with investors to assess their unique objectives, risk tolerance and other factors, educate them on options, and institute a program that allows them to select from a much greater breadth of investment choices. By using our knowledge of industry regulations, we are able to provide lower fees and greatly expanded investment options.
We provide complete support, advice and reporting for non-traditional investments.
Our clients have the benefit of the expertise of tax attorneys, CPA's, real estate agents, and other financial experts to identify the appropriate expertise, methodology and tools to enable investors to have greater control over Self-Directed IRA investment transactions and reduce risks and liability through the protection of a Self-Directed IRA LLC and Self-Directed 401k. This use of tax dollars creates wealth for their clients, client's family, and for generations to come if desired.
AES clients include individuals, real estate professionals, franchise investors, CPA's, other advisers and financial experts, congressional representatives, IRS employees, attorneys, television celebrities, and consummate 'investors.
AES Education Division provides a variety of self-study products that educate and guide and assist individuals, real estate professionals, franchise investors, CPA's and other advisers and financial experts who wish to understand the benefits of, and learn how to implement Self-Directed retirement investing. Our education web site provides over thirty-five education products on Self-Directed IRA investing.
In 2000 it became clear to Daniel Cordoba, AES founder, that the equities markets were in for turbulent times. Serendipitously one of his clients said to him 'I know you can place real estate in an IRA, go find out how to do that." That became the first venture in to self-directed retirement plans and the new future for Daniel Cordoba. In 2003 Jeremy Farver joined the company; it quickly became a financial practice producing IRA LLC's with checkbook control primarily serving the real estate market. Because of Cordoba and Farver's experience as financial advisors and as merger and acquisition specialists, the notion of corporate structure melded with retirement products became a natural extension of their knowledge and past experiences.
The venture then incorporated in 2004 and became and still is the leading self-directed retirement firm in the real estate market. In 2006 the company introduced the Self-Directed (self-directed) 401k to the market and it quickly became a capitalization tool of choice for real estate investors. In 2007 and 2008 this same tool saved many real estate transactions from failure through self-funding.
The company now offers funding solutions not only for real estate investment deals but also franchises, and private business opportunities.
In 2010 the company launched the Asset Exchange Franchise Network (AEFN) due to the market's desire to be able to do business with the "local guy". AES past affiliation with equity market organizations provided the company with a solid foundation to build a financial advisory firm with non-traditional assets.
AES products are designed to meet the requirement of the tax-code; AES Self-Directed plans are compliant to IRS tax code (IRC 4975, publication 590 and code 408). To date AES is aware of 50 units (structured plans) that have been audited; all have passed the structure test. The IRS demands that these plans provide complete compliance to the code and exclusive benefit to the retirement plan. However, many competitor products that are touted as compliant products to the IRS code are merely modifications of standard business entities – they have produced problems for clients when tragedy occurs such as death or disability.

Weather in the Metro Detroit area couldn't keep fans away from these four high level games. Each of the four contest had really good prospects and matchups. Below are a few standout players who played well during the Fastbreak Invitational in Michigan hosted by Inside Prep Sports…
Note – Not listed in any particular order
Pierre Brooks Jr. '21 | 6'5 Guard (Frederick Douglass) – Probably one of the hottest recruits in Michigan and the Midwest put on a show! Going up against another high level guard didn't stop Brooks from scoring inside and out. His much improved jump shot has spiked his recruiting with The University of Michigan and Arizona State offering him lately. His ability to make shots, attack the paint and finish at the rim makes him really hard to guard and was on full display in this contest as he finished with 20 points and 5 rebounds.
Griffin Yaklich '20 | 6'5 Guard (Saline) – Griffin took the challenge of going up against another high level recruit and he delivered. He kept his Saline Yellow Jackets in the contest throughout the game by attacking the lane, creating shots for his teammates and finishing at the rim. His basketball IQ and passing are what makes him a desirable recruit for NCAA D1 and D2 schools. Yaklich has a long frame, really good handle and feel for the game. He finished the game with 18 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.
Julian Lewis '21 | 6'6 Forward (Ann Arbor Huron) – There is no mistake why multiple NCAA Division 1 Mid Major schools have offered Julian Lewis. He plays hard on both ends of the floor, can make plays on and off the ball while attacking the rim in transition. He is a consistent shooter and can make shoots beyond the arch which makes him a tough match-up for high school opponents.
Zavion McClendon '20 | 6'2 Guard (Frederick Douglass) – Zavion is the perfect complement to Brooks because he can score and is aggressive looking for his shot. He has no problem creating his own shot and attacking the rim. He finished well at the basket in this contest and put tons of pressure on the Saline defense. McClendon finished the game with 14 points including 9 in the 4th quarter and 7 rebounds.
Jack Williams '21 | 6'0 Guard (Ann Arbor Skyline) - In the first contest of the day against Detroit Pershing, Williams was lights out from 3. Making four three pointers in the 1st half helped Skyline build a big lead on the Doughboys. Williams is the type of guard you need in your offense to space the floor. His shooting ability makes it hard for teams to play zone and definitely cannot leave him open. He finished the game with 22 points and 5 rebounds in a 64-47 win.
Trevor Arico '20 | 5'10 Guard (Saline) – Another high level shooter in this invitational. Playing alongside Yaklich, who likes to attack and look for shooters, helps Arico get great looks. He drilled multiple three-pointers and is the type of shooter every coach needs but neglects to recruit. Could be a really good recruit for NCAA D3 schools because of his size but he can flat out shoot it. He finished this contest against Frederick Douglass with 20 points and five made three pointers.
Kabir Bergin '20 | 6'4 Forward (Ann Arbor Skyline) – Returning starter from last season showed much progress in his game. He filled up the box score this game and showed he could make an impact on offense and defense. Kabir made shots on the perimeter, scored inside, defended the paint and rebounded well. He finished the contest with 15 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Bergin should be on your list to checkout college coaches especially at the D2/D3 level.
Tyson Edmondson '21 | 6'3 Guard (Ann Arbor Huron) – This guard has RANGE!! The three pointers Tyson made during the contest were from deep. He made six three pointers and all of them were well beyond the arch. Coaches looking for a deep range shooter look no further than Tyson Edmonson as he finished the game with 18 points. Ann Arbor Huron won 47-41 over North Farmington.
Connor Bush '20 | 6'4 Forward (Belleville) – Matching up against a Big Ten wide receiver isn't the easiest thing to do but Bush was ready for it. He rebounded well for the home team and finished well at the basket. Being able to screen, pop and attack gives him opportunities to attack the basket and hit the jump shot when needed. Bush is a multi-sport athlete with a NCAA D1 Football offer to play Morgan State University with tons of interest from others for football and basketball. He ended this contest with 20 points and 8 rebounds.

Cell phone video captures Vallejo police shooting of local rapper in Taco Bell drive-through
A blurry cell phone video uploaded on YouTube shows the moment six Vallejo police officers shot and killed a local rapper who passed out behind the wheel of a vehicle in a Taco Bell drive-through line on Feb. 9., according to a witness.
The video starts with Rolly Gabun, of Vallejo, filming the Taco Bell scene from inside his car, saying aloud there were roughly seven police officers blocking the drive-through on Admiral Callaghan Lane. He records the flashing red and blue patrol lights.
When he wonders aloud why the man behind the wheel — later identified as Willie McCoy — doesn't step out of the vehicle, police officers can be heard repeatedly shouting "put your hands up" before a barrage of gunfire rings out.
After more than 12 bullets are fired, officers can be heard demanding, "let me see your hands" and "put your hands up."
McCoy, 21, of Vallejo, died at the scene.
"Dude, they just fired on that guy," Gabun said before he stops recording.
Gabun told The Chronicle on Wednesday night that he was "completely shocked when this happened."
"If the guy had a gun on his lap but woke up suddenly of course he would reach for it because he was probably shocked," Gabun said. "Like it's brutality at its finest because even after shooting him so many times they still gave commands!"
An officer can be heard telling dispatch soon after the shooting, "All officers are OK. He's moving, but not responsive" before shouting to McCoy "show me your hands," according to dispatch audio from Vallejo Police Department.
That night, two Vallejo police officers initially responded to a report of a motorist who was slumped over in his silver Mercedes around 10:30 p.m. officials said. When the pair of officers peered into the vehicle, police said they saw McCoy unresponsive with a gun on his lap. They later said the gun was a fully loaded 40 caliber semi-automatic handgun with an extended magazine. After several more officers arrived as back-up, they opened fire when, they said, McCoy awoke and reached for the gun.
Any witnesses of the shooting may contact Vallejo police Detective Scott Yates at 707-648-4533 or Detective Craig Long at 707-648-4514.

Thinking About Thinking, Part 1
Lately, I've been thinking a lot about thinking. One of the most interesting concepts I've encounted is something called "Naive Realism." Naive realism explains why you know that you are right and other people are wrong. Someone who is a victim of naive realism believes that he sees things objectively, and anyone who disagrees just needs to see things from a proper perspective. As I think about thinking, naive realism might be at the very core of all thinking problems.

Yamaha Reface keyboards are designed around the practical needs of contemporary musicians. The name of the series, "reface," is a conflation of the idea of reimagining and the legacy of Yamaha's many groundbreaking keyboard instrument interfaces. Among the innovations that is hearkens back to are the legendary CP80, Yamaha Combo Organ and CS5 keyboards. This is the reface DX, which has as one of its chief orientations the bell pianos and broad digital synth library from the DX7.
The reface series is small. Incredibly small. But unlike miniature keyboard instruments of the past, the reface touch is satisfying and expressive, and the sound is nothing short of spectacular. The reface family of keyboards features built-in speakers and is battery operable so you can create on the go. An aux line in allows you to play along with MP3 players or whatever other audio device you wish to use. Add MIDI and USB connectivity, and the reface's capacity to interface with external devices is vast.
Reface DX goes retro 80s to cutting edge modern at the flick of a switch¦literally! Capacitive multi-touch control puts powerful FM synthesis under your fingertips. Quickly edit, store and recall 32 of your favorite Voices with the onboard memory. Add final polish to your sound using the two onboard multi-effects. Got a quick idea for a song or just want to jam? The onboard Looper records your playing complete with œsound on sound-style overdubs. You can even change or edit Voices while playing back the Looper " a great way to fine tune your custom Voices.
For sound designers and keyboardists needing classic 80's to cutting edge EDM FM sound, Reface DX is a mini-key FM synthesizer based on the legendary DX7 featuring modern four-operator FM synthesis and dual effects processors. Unlike synthesizers with "me too" sound, Reface DX offers unique and complex synth sound that's only possible from Yamaha.
WebMIDI and the reface Keyboard
It had to happen, so it did. WebMIDI. And of course, Yamaha is one of the first to offer a way to use it. WebMIDI connects MIDI devices to the internet, allowing musical instruments to play online synthesizers, as well as save or share sounds. Reface Mobile Mini Keyboards can use WebMIDI to songs to YouTube (video) and SoundCloud (audio).
BROWSE shows all available sounds (currently thousands), and you can refine your searches using tags. Once you find a sound you like, click on it and hit SYNC. This will send the sound to your connected reface and show them you to move the controls on your keyboard to recreate the sound. How cool is that?

This project aims to optimize the purification processes used in the production of biofuels and to enhance the added value of byproducts generated during such processes. In the case of bioethanol, the distillation process will be investigated taking into account minor components relevant for product quality, according to standards fixed by the legislation for biofuels and the requirements of the raw materials for the chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics and food industries. The configurations of distillation columns currently in use in sugar mills will be investigated by experimental means in the industrial units and by process simulation. A comprehensive investigation of the phase equilibrium of wine will be carried out, taking into account a complete set of minor components. New and innovative configurations for distillation columns will be proposed, aiming at better product quality, equipment flexibility, higher ethanol recovery, lower energy consumption and better byproduct quality. Such configurations will be further tested for concentrating the bioethanol obtained from wine with a high alcohol content and from cellulosic residues. In the case of ethylic biodiesel, a comprehensive investigation of the different types of phase equilibrium occurring throughout the whole production process will be carried out. The use of ethylic alcohol as a solvent for extracting vegetable oils from seeds and grains, and for deacidifying crude oils by liquid-liquid extraction, as well as its use as a reactant in biodiesel production will be studied, with the purpose of integrating biodiesel and bioethanol productions. The optimization of the whole production process, including the oil extraction and deacidification, biodiesel reaction and purification, will be performed by simulation. In the case of biocompounds, strategies for enhancing the value of byproducts generated during the production of biofuels will be investigated. For instance, the fractionation of higher alcohols generated as a sidestream during the distillation of bioethanol, the use of glycerol in the production of surfactants and emulsifiers, the recovery of nutraceuticals from edible oils, and the formulation and fractionation of fatty mixtures based on solid-liquid equilibrium data.

"You've circled this mountain long enough. Now go north." Deuteronomy 2:3
In July of this year, my mother called to tell me that we'd be taking family pictures when I was out to see them later in the month. I moaned and groaned over the phone hoping to talk her out of it but this is my mother we're talking about and so I hung up the phone and casually wandered into the bathroom to step on the scales wondering what weight this year's family picture would commemorate.
And then I burst into tears.
I weighed 200 pounds.
The first part of this year was so incredibly stressful for me. In between selling our house (and keeping it "show-ready" at all times), hunting for new houses, thinking we'd found our perfect house and losing it (twice), then finding our current home, packing, unpacking, and doing all of this while Craig was gone every week on the busiest travel schedule of our entire married life, let me tell you, my ability to manage stress had fled to some tropical island leaving me with no coping skills whatsoever.
So I did what any non-self-respecting girl would do.
I ate.
I ate jelly beans. I ate sushi. I ate entire family-sized bags of Pirate's Booty. I got to be such a loyal customer at Jersey Mike's that they gave me a reward card that I punched enough times to get the free foot-long sub.
The kid behind the counter said he'd never seen a woman claim the prize.
I was absolutely mortified when he said that.
So I ate the whole thing.
And week by week, and month by month, my clothes got tighter, and tighter, and the sizes went up and up, and by the end of August, I was bigger than I'd ever been in my entire life and the new clothes I'd just bought were already tight and I sat on the couch and bawled my eyes out and scared my poor husband who had just walked in the door from yet another business trip.
It was ugly.
Something had to be done.
So August 19, I grabbed a journal and wrote the following reasons why I was about to make some drastic changes.
1. I feel like my husband is embarrassed by me.
2. I'm embarrassed by me.
3. I weigh more than I should.
4. I ache.
5. I don't want diabetes at 41.
6. I don't want to fight this battle at 42.
7. I want to stop using food as a crutch.
8. I want to set a good example for my kids.
9. I don't want to avoid mirrors for the rest of my life.
10. I feel old.
And then I went hard-core on a special program and cut out sugar, bread, potatoes and any and all fast and fried food and got seriously cranky for about two weeks while I adjusted to losing my primary fuel source.
Day 1.
Every day while I ate my VERY LITTLE bar of food or drank my shake I would read over the list of reasons why I was doing this, and every time I'd repeat an affirmation or two to keep myself motivated, chief among them "I am made for more than this" and "French fries are not my friends" and day by day and week by week, I inched toward my goal.
And today, four months later, I wrote down ten new things in my journal.
1. My husband is so proud of me.
2. I'm proud of me.
3. I've lost all my baby weight
twelve years later.
4. I don't ache anymore and don't dread walking upstairs.
5. I've lowered my risk of diabetes tremendously. Cancer, too.
6. I'm at a perfectly normal weight.
7. I don't eat emotionally anymore. I eat because it's mealtime.
8. My kids are eating more fruit and vegetables than they ever have before.
9. I don't dread the dressing room mirror any more.
10. I feel young and energetic.
This morning:
Good-bye, 43 pounds, four dress sizes, and thirty inches.
Hello, 42.
Happy Birthday to me.
Have a nice day.

New Milford PD: Text message argument led to Grove Street stabbing
NEW MILFORD — Last month's Grove Street stabbing appears to have been the culmination of a text message argument between the victim and the man accused of stabbing him.
That's what a report filed by the New Milford Police Department following the Aug. 1 incident indicates.
Dion Bernier Jr., 27, was charged with first-degree assault, as well as tampering with physical evidence, after police say he stabbed a 28-year-old acquaintance that morning.
Officers responded to a call about an altercation at Bernier's Grove Street home around 8:40 a.m. and found the victim "walking around the driveway with what appeared to be a stab wound to his abdomen," police said.
Bernier "apparently told (a sergeant) he had no weapons on him," according to the report, but police found a folding pocket knife clipped to his pants at the scene.
Two other people — a 43-year-old man from Danbury and a 42-year-old taxi driver — were also at the scene.
The taxi driver told police he picked up the Danbury man and the victim that morning, and was at the Grove Street residence to pick up Bernier and bring them all to a methadone clinic in Danbury.
He said he had driven the three of them to the clinic before and "believed them to be friends," according to police.
The 43-year-old man told police that when he and the victim pulled up to Bernier's residence in the cab, the victim told him Bernier had sent him a text message saying he was going to "put a knife to (the victim's) throat or slit (his) throat," according to the police report.
As the victim was showing him the message, the witness said Bernier came out of the house "all jacked up, like he wanted to fight," according to police.
He said the victim then got out of the car, confronted Bernier and the two started fighting. After hearing the victim say he had been stabbed, the witness told police, he got out of the car and saw the victim "bleeding from his stomach."
Bernier was placed under arrest shortly before 9 a.m. and declined to talk to police about the incident, according to the police report.
Police said the victim was transported to Danbury Hospital, where he underwent abdominal surgery.
A knife was also located on his person and "secured for safe keeping," police said.
At the hospital, the victim showed text messages exchanged between him and Bernier.
In a message sent the morning of Aug. 1, the victim confronted Berner about something someone else had said, according to police. In response, Bernier said he didn't "need this right now," as he was dealing with the recent death of a family member.
After the victim called Bernier a "p---y" in a subsequent text, Berner threatened to "put a knife in (the victim's) side" if he called him that again, according to the text messages.
At 8:39 a.m., the victim repeated the word three times in a text to Bernier and told him he was in the taxi outside his house. In less than a minute, Bernier replied, "Get out of the car," according to the police report.
Bernier pleaded not guilty to the assault and evidence-tampering charges 11 days after his arrest and remains in custody on $250,000 bond.
He has a pre-trial hearing scheduled Friday morning at state Superior Court in Litchfield, where he is being represented by the Avon-based Law Office of Pat Brown, according to court records.

Remove StevenSeagal ransomware (Virus Removal Guide) - Decryption Steps Included
StevenSeagal ransomware is a crypto virus that denies access to your files
StevenSeagal ransomware is a data locker that was discovered in late November 2018 by the independent security researcher Emmanuel_ADC-Soft.[1] The malware comes from the notorious Scarab family which already has over two dozen variants created since summer of 2017. The malware uses an AES-256 encryption algorithm to lock up files and ads .email@example.com appendix to each of the altered data. From that point, none of the data is readable by the machine, so users lose access to their pictures, videos, images, databases, documents, etc. StevenSeagal ransomware then drops a ransom note HOW TO RECOVER ENCRYPTED FILES.TXT that contains information about what happened to victims' data, and what they should do next. Crooks ask users to pay up for the decryptor which is located on a remote server and only accessible to them.
|Cipher used
|File extension
|Ransom note
|Spam emails, cracked software, fake updates, unprotected RDP, exploits, etc.
|Use security software like Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego or SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner
StevenSeagal ransomware typically enters machines with the help of phishing emails, although other methods can be used:
- Exploits and vulnerabilties;[2]
- Brute-force attacks
- Bundled software
- Torrent files;
- Fake updates, etc.
As soon as StevenSeagal virus breaks in, it performs various system changes to ensure persistence. It modifies Windows Registry and attempts to delete Shadow Volume Copies, making file recovery more complicated. After that, the virus turns all personal files into a modified version of themselves (note that data is not corrupted, it is merely locked by a key), for example, a picture.jpg turns into firstname.lastname@example.com. While StevenSeagal ransomware removal will not decode files, we suggest you start from precisely that.
Steven Seagal is a well known Hollywood actor. Many criminals like to use well-known individuals within ransomware names, although the individuals (for example, Barack Obama Blackmail ransomware) have nothing to do with the virus. Therefore, please do not contact Steven Seagal if you got infected, he will not be able to help you!
Crypto malware is created by cybercriminals who seek monetary gain by blackmailing people, which is a criminal offense. While some crooks have been caught, there are thousands that will never be tracked and punished. Therefore, StevenSeagal ransomware authors should never be trusted, as they might scam you and not give you the decryptor, even if you pay the demanded amount of Bitcoin.
Instead, we suggest you remove StevenSeagal ransomware without contacting crooks. You should use comprehensive anti-malware programs that are capable of deleting the virus and all its traces from the system. We suggest you try Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego, SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner or Malwarebytes, although other security software can be handy as well.
StevenSeagal ransomware is a dangerous cyberthreat that locks every personal file on the victims' machine and demands ransom to be paid for its release.
Ransomware is known to be spread with the help of infected installers or bundled files
The Internet is not a safe place, especially if you do not use any security measures to prevent malware from entering your machine. Indeed, there are several ways you can install ransomware and other malware on your computer, and you will not ever notice it. The complicated code performs millions of operations within a few seconds, without giving out it is there. However, after the encryption process is complete, users can quickly see that they are unable to open or use their personal files.
Ransomware infections usually come from inexperience, although negligence is another leading cause. Therefore, please follow these tips provided by security experts:[3]
- Install security tools that are capable of stopping most malware from entering;
- Do not download spam email attachments, even if they look legitimate. Also, do not click on links inside – it can lead you to a malicious website;
- Carefully examine web pages that you visit – a simple misclick might result in ransomware installation;
- Avoid file-sharing and torrent sites;
- Use VPN for when using RDP, and never leave it unprotected;
- Install ad blocker which would prevent fake updates;
- Patch your system as soon as the updates are ready to be installed.
Additionally, having a backup of your files can save you from a lot of distress.
Remove StevenSeagal ransomware with the help of appropriate security software
StevenSeagal ransomware removal should be executed with the help of reputable anti-malware software, as eliminating the threat manually is almost impossible. We suggest you download and install Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego, SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner or Malwarebytes (although other software of your choice can work as well) and perform full system scan in Safe Mode with Networking. We provide all the instructions below.
As soon as you remove StevenSeagal virus, you can proceed with the file recovery. As long as you kept backups of your system on the virtual or external device, you should have no problems. However, most of the people do not bother with backups, which complicates data recovery significantly. In such a case, we suggest you try third-party software that may help you to recover at least some of your files. A full guide below!
To remove StevenSeagal virus, follow these steps:
Remove StevenSeagal using Safe Mode with Networking
To remove StevenSeagal ransomware from your PC, enter Safe Mode with Networking:
Step 1: Reboot your computer to Safe Mode with Networking
Windows 7 / Vista / XP
- Click Start → Shutdown → Restart → OK.
- When your computer becomes active, start pressing F8 multiple times until you see the Advanced Boot Options window.

Windows 10 / Windows 8
- Press the Power button at the Windows login screen. Now press and hold Shift, which is on your keyboard, and click Restart..
- Now select Troubleshoot → Advanced options → Startup Settings and finally press Restart.
- Once your computer becomes active, select Enable Safe Mode with Networking in Startup Settings window.
Step 2: Remove StevenSeagal
Log in to your infected account and start the browser. Download Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego or other legitimate anti-spyware program. Update it before a full system scan and remove malicious files that belong to your ransomware and complete StevenSeagal removal.
If your ransomware is blocking Safe Mode with Networking, try further method.
Remove StevenSeagal using System Restore
Another way to stop the virus is by using System Restore:
Step 1: Reboot your computer to Safe Mode with Command Prompt
Windows 7 / Vista / XP
- Click Start → Shutdown → Restart → OK.
- When your computer becomes active, start pressing F8 multiple times until you see the Advanced Boot Options window.
- Select Command Prompt from the list
Windows 10 / Windows 8
- Press the Power button at the Windows login screen. Now press and hold Shift, which is on your keyboard, and click Restart..
- Now select Troubleshoot → Advanced options → Startup Settings and finally press Restart.
- Once your computer becomes active, select Enable Safe Mode with Command Prompt in Startup Settings window.
Step 2: Restore your system files and settings
- Once the Command Prompt window shows up, enter cd restore and click Enter.
- Now type rstrui.exe and press Enter again..
- When a new window shows up, click Next and select your restore point that is prior the infiltration of StevenSeagal. After doing that, click Next.
- Now click Yes to start system restore.
Bonus: Recover your dataGuide which is presented above is supposed to help you remove StevenSeagal from your computer. To recover your encrypted files, we recommend using a detailed guide prepared by 2-spyware.com security experts.
If your files are encrypted by StevenSeagal, you can use several methods to restore them:
Try to recover your files with the help of Data Recover Pro
This tool is useful when your files get accidentally deleted or otherwise corrupted. However, users reported that it also helped those infected with ransomware.
- Download Data Recovery Pro;
- Follow the steps of Data Recovery Setup and install the program on your computer;
- Launch it and scan your computer for files encrypted by StevenSeagal ransomware;
- Restore them.
Windows Previous Version Feature may bring back some of your files
This method is only viable if System Restore was enabled before the infection occurred. Additionally, you will only be able to recover files one by one, so the recovery of large amount of data might be impossible.
- Find an encrypted file you need to restore and right-click on it;
- Select "Properties" and go to "Previous versions" tab;
- Here, check each of available copies of the file in "Folder versions". You should select the version you want to recover and click "Restore".
ShadowExplorer can be an excellent tool when it comes to data recovery
As we already mentioned above, StevenSeagal malware tries to remove Shadow Volume Copies after the infiltration. However, experts say that there is a chance that the virus will fail to do so, resulting in an easy file recovery. Therefore, try ShadowExplorer and you might be able to get all of your files back.
- Download Shadow Explorer (http://shadowexplorer.com/);
- Follow a Shadow Explorer Setup Wizard and install this application on your computer;
- Launch the program and go through the drop down menu on the top left corner to select the disk of your encrypted data. Check what folders are there;
- Right-click on the folder you want to restore and select "Export". You can also select where you want it to be stored.
No decryptor is created yet
Finally, you should always think about the protection of crypto-ransomwares. In order to protect your computer from StevenSeagal and other ransomwares, use a reputable anti-spyware, such as Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego, SpyHunter 5Combo Cleaner or Malwarebytes
Do not let government spy on you
The government has many issues in regards to tracking users' data and spying on citizens, so you should take this into consideration and learn more about shady information gathering practices. Avoid any unwanted government tracking or spying by going totally anonymous on the internet.
You can choose a different location when you go online and access any material you want without particular content restrictions. You can easily enjoy internet connection without any risks of being hacked by using Private Internet Access VPN.
Control the information that can be accessed by government any other unwanted party and surf online without being spied on. Even if you are not involved in illegal activities or trust your selection of services, platforms, be suspicious for your own security and take precautionary measures by using the VPN service.
Backup files for the later use, in case of the malware attack
Computer users can suffer various losses due to cyber infections or their own faulty doings. Software issues created by malware or direct data loss due to encryption can lead to problems with your device or permanent damage. When you have proper up-to-date backups, you can easily recover after such an incident and get back to work.
It is crucial to create updates to your backups after any changes on the device, so you can get back to the point you were working on when malware changes anything or issues with the device causes data or performance corruption. Rely on such behavior and make file backup your daily or weekly habit.
When you have the previous version of every important document or project you can avoid frustration and breakdowns. It comes in handy when malware occurs out of nowhere. Use Data Recovery Pro for the system restoring purpose.

Dawes – All Your Favorite Bands
Dawes are like the New York Yankees, Hugo Chavez, bratwurst, and daytime TV. You either love them or you hate them. If you love them, then this is Dawes at their best. The schtick this time around is that the album was recorded pretty much live in the studio. That's a good strategy, because the easiest criticism to lay at their feet is that their overdubs are overdubbed. So, while trying to recapture the live experience in the studio setting is hardly an innovation, it is a smart move. And it works really well. The most noticeable difference this time around is the vocals. Taylor Goldsmith is there right in front of you. And he sounds good. Alive. What also ends up working really well are the very slight flaws. The guitar solo on 'Don't Send Me Away' doesn't come in completely right. But, so what? And a perfectly crafted Dawes album wouldn't have allowed quite such a long mid-song hiatus on 'I Can't Think About It Now'. The bottom line, though, is that an album is only as good as the melodies on it. And here there are some fine ones. 'To Be Completely Honest', 'Right on Time', both will worm their way into your ears. In a nice way. Dawes are an acquired taste. If you hate Jackson Browne, the Fleet Foxes, and sundry others, then look away. However, if you've a taste for harmony, melody, and maybe even rhapsody, then Dawes will become one of your favourite bands.

When I first discovered that the thistle was a national emblem of Scotland, I thought 'what a shame'.
It's covered in sharp, pointy thorns as if to say 'don't come near me'. Given that it is still possible to go hiking in the Scottish Highlands in the peak of August and not see a soul, perhaps the thistle is not such an odd representative.
It stands staunch and robust in the wind, ready to poke the odd bypasser if they venture too far off the road.
The thistle has a place in the sagas. There is a legend that a group of Danish Vikings were once trying to sneak in on a sleeping party of Scotsmen, when one of the Vikings trod on a thistle and let go of an agonising scream that awoke the Scots. The Vikings lost that battle, so the pointy national emblem did serve national interest.
Not just a prickly face
The other day I saw the Cotton Thistle, or 'Scottish Thistle' as it is sometimes called, with fresh eyes on a walk to the Singing Sands, across the cliffs of Cleadale on the Isle of Eigg. The evening sun had broken through a threatening block of clouds, and its rays fell on a plethora of little, bright flowers on a tall stem with upward-pointing branches that were reaching out as if to take a peek over the edge of the cliffs. I turned around and noticed the purple dots all across the field behind me, playing off against white flowers on the bramble bushes and bright, green bracken in the background. A landscape of weeds and invasive species, but a really beautiful one in which the colours bounce perfectly off one another and more colours reveal themselves the more you look. Suddenly you see all shades of purple in the field, coming from Heather, Fox Gloves and straws that I wouldn't know how to classify. I had a moment of appreciation and promised never to slag off the thistle again.
Never say never
An hour later, on the way back form the Singing Sands, I decided to climb a fence and cut across the pretty, colourful fields to get back to my base. The houses in Cleadale are dotted along the slopes overlooking the bay, and it looked like an easy inroad to make, aiming straight for my house on the slope. But when I got to the fence of the field, I found myself with a pack of long-haired, long-horned Highland cattle to my left, an impenetrable row of brambles in front of me and a field full of thistles to my right.
Needless to say, thistles are best enjoyed at a distance. But the cows were all looking at me, and the brambles would destroy my clothes. The best alternative was to wade through the thorny thistles that I had appreciated so much at a distance an hour earlier. Aiming for the spots of grass that didn't have thistles on them, I quickly realised that the prickly plant wasn't my only problem. The ground was boggy, and my hiking boots were giving in to the mud, making my socks wet and my mood soggy. I could hear a stream of water near me, indicating that there was far worse to come. I back-tracked, found a different route through the thistles and ran in to the same stream of water. Now both hungry and grumpy, I cursed the thorns on my fuchsia-flowered friends the thistles, and looked back towards the way I had come. It was far. It might get dark before I got back to the house. I back-tracked another couple of times, zig-zagging between prickly vegetation and boggy ground, the latter getting more and more spongy. I started wondering if this was what quicksand felt like. A shiver of panic went through me as I pondered the possibility of having to stay in the field over night, or possibly spending my last hour sinking in to a field in the Hebrides. I started looking around to see if there was anything to eat. Everything seemed to have thorns.
Suddenly, three humans appeared at the top of the cliff overlooking the bay. They were just distant silhouettes on the coastal path that I should have taken, but seeing them shook me out of my state of disaster anticipation and I started thinking practically. I had to go back, almost all the way, and then follow the track that walkers were supposed to follow. I didn't care if it would get dark. It would eventually lead me home.
Like the Vikings before me, I gave up conquering the field and resign myself to being a respectful visitor on the designated path. Now I see why the thistle is a perfect national emblem.

I don't generally like to publicize this, but my very first job was as a telephone psychic. Yes, it's true: each day from 10am to 4pm I would dispense romantic advice, business predictions and sure-fire lottery numbers for only $2.99 per minute (taxes not included). I was quietly reassuring, inspiringly spiritual . . . and completely full of crap.
Given this sordid employment history, I tend to approach psychic phenomena with more than a little skepticism. Those lingering doubts vanished after 30 minutes of conversation with professional medium Matthew Stapley.
Unlike the JoJos and Miss Cleos of tacky TV telepaths, Stapley comes across as a soft-spoken, compassionate and down-to-earth guy who just happens to talk to spirits. He eschews the razzmatazz of clairvoyant showboats, comforting the people who come to him for guidance. It's a talent and a style the young psychic comes by honestly.
"My grandfather was a medium," Stapley reveals. "He just did it for family and for himself, though. And my great aunt had sisters who did card readings. It sort of runs in the family."
Stapley's first foray into the unknown occurred when he was only eight years old. His father was travelling in Thailand and had phoned home to chat with his wife and kids — a phone call that would change the young Matthew's life forever.
"I started describing the room that he was sitting in in Thailand," Stapley says. "I saw these big elephant tusks across the table from him, the colour of the lizards on the wall and the colour of the phone. It really freaked him out."
As time went on, Stapley learned to focus and develop his talent, experimenting with tarot cards and trances to make contact with the spirit world. Now he reads for clients simply by talking with them, sharing impressions and messages and encouraging questions of any sort — even from skeptics.
"I think that building a rapport even with people who don't believe is important because it allows us to release some of the stigma about what we do as mediums," he says. "I just try to be nice to everyone and show them that we're all psychic in our own ways."
Oh, and the thing that dispelled my own skepticism regarding Stapley's gifts? He talked about a child. My child. The one I had recently begun fostering and will soon adopt in the spring. He pegged the month of the impending adoption, the gender of the child and the moves associated with parenting (I'm currently commuting between two provinces). That information has been something I've kept quite private and is not at all general knowledge — until now, of course.
So count me a believer.

It makes sense for those who take cloning rather seriously to apply their skills on the iPad. After all its the largest selling tablet PC in the world and its sales figure is measured in millions. And something whose demand is shooting through the roof will perhaps have a spill-over effect on its clones, which is why they are cloned in the first place.
However, while all previous cloning jobs of the iPad in the past did look shabby, here is one that begs to differ. This since not only does the tablet look extremely well done, the good thing is it hasn't been left with only a good surface treatment but one that penetrates to its interiors as well. For the tablet includes 800MHz Freescale i.MX515 chip along with 512MB of RAM though storage is just 4GB. However, the biggest surprise is the tablet runs the latest version of Android, the 2.2 Froyo.
So if you have been tinkering with the idea of having Android on your iPad, you might give this a try though its not known how much it costs or if it's ever going to travel outside of China.

DYCODE – Nicola Maaser (University of Aarhus): "Power Illusion in Coalitional Bargaining"
December 04, 2018, 16-18
One feature of legislative bargaining in the real world is that the distribution of seats or voting weights often does not accurately reflect real bargaining power. Game-theoretic predictions about payoffs and coalition formation are insensitive to such purely nominal differences. The converse idea that nominal differences might matter is referred to as 'power illusion'. We conduct an experimental test of the classical Baron-Ferejohn model with five-player groups. We compare treatments with differences in nominal power holding real power constant. We find strong evidence for the existence of power illusion in almost all aspects of bargaining behavior even if subjects got familiar with the game. This implies that attention needs to be paid to nominal power differentials in the design of weighted voting systems.
This talk is part of the DYCODE lecture series.

TW: Reading this book was like watching a Train Wreck
DNF: Did Not Finish
updated July 9, 2015
Opening nearly a year after the previous book, Harry and fledgling apprentice Molly Carpenter are investigating a rash of suspicious murders at the request of and along with Karen Murphy. Someone or something is killing off practitioners of magic, some with barely any perceptible power. Unfortunately, it looks like Harry's half-brother, Thomas, may be involved. As Harry digs deeper, he finds layer upon layer of subterfuge and evil.
I think White Night may be one of my favorite books in the series. First of all, the story returns back to the series roots, bring back into the mix gentleman Johnny Marcone, Chicago's notorious underworld boss. I've always enjoyed Johnny's dark character. He's not a good man, but he still makes noble gestures and has a heart under the slick surface. His actions are always made with a self-serving endgame in sight, but he also has secrets that motivate him in unexpected ways. Events in White Night suggest we will see more of Marcone in the titles ahead.
Second, I found the balance of dark and light within and around Harry, ideal. The book's mix between action and storytelling emphasizes this underlying struggle that Harry faces every tale. With the shadow of a manipulative fallen angel inside of Harry, I constantly worry that a point will come when Harry can no longer resist the temptation and take up the coin, bringing power and possession with it. I found this particular storyline extremely exciting and engaging this time around.
There are other characters from the past that resurface in White Night, which was both interesting, and frustrating. Interesting was the plot and subplots involving the characters. However, I was frustrated because I couldn't always place the characters, only that I know I'd heard of them before. Yet, Mr. Butcher weaves a strong tale, keeping me just enough in the loop as to not worry about the past so much.
As always, James Marsters works his own magic, bringing Dresden to life with his top-notch performance. However, this time around, I accidentally listened to the book at 1.5x speed instead of my usual 1.25x speed. I thought things sounded a little off once and a while, but by the time I realized why (the faster speed), I'd grown used to it and now prefer it.
White Night is another amazing tale in what has become one of my favorite series. The balance between serious and humor, light and dark, action and thought has reached near mastery, and I look forward with much anticipation to where Harry Dresden will end up on his future adventures.
