Polygamy has become passe — at least for young people in Indonesia and Malaysia.
86.5 percent of Indonesians between the ages of 15 and 25, and 72.7 percent of young Malaysians, disagree with the practice, according to a new survey. Of course, in and of itself that isn't earth-shattering news, but given that the countries are overwhelmingly Muslim and generally quite conservative, the number is interesting.

Shortly after Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell unveiled his "contingency" plan for a debt limit increase, the Associated Press bulletin read: "GOP Leader McConnell proposes giving Obama new power for automatic debt limit increase."
It's surely not the headline McConnell wanted, but unlike much of the media coverage of the debt fight, it's accurate. And that's a problem.

A once-loved tradition where community news and events appeared weekly in the local newspaper is being kept alive, at least on a part-time basis. Up until about 20 years ago, nearly every small community in Casey County had a resident who collected local news and sent it each week to The Casey County News. Clarice Floyd was one of about 20 correspondents who did this, but as the years progressed, the correspondents faded away. Floyd, a spry and lively 92, is the last correspondent who still periodically gathers the news of her friends and neighbors in the Mt. Olive community. She became a correspondent in the late 1950s.
FRANKFORT – The Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services is urging the public to take steps to avoid injury and illness during this period of extreme heat, particularly dangers associated with leaving children in vehicles. According to Safe Kids, 49 children in the U.S. died last year from heat stroke while unattended in vehicles. From 1998-2010, at least 494 deaths are known to have occurred nationally. In Kentucky, there have been 13 deaths attributed to vehicular hyperthermia during the same time period and one death every year since 2004.
Work started this week on the new zipline at the Black Mountain Off-Road Adventure Area. The $200,000 project represents a major investment for the Harlan County Outdoor Board Authority, and recently the board learned about the opening of a competing zipline in eastern Kentucky. A private developer has opened a zipline attraction at Red River Gorge in Wolfe County, but representatives of the outdoor board downplay the significance of that opening on their project

The feel-good story of last week about the young New York Yankees fan who very willingly gave back the home run ball that shortstop Derek Jeter clobbered to get his 3,000th career hit took a predictable but still somewhat depressing turn yesterday.
The New York Times reported that: "No Good Deed Goes Untaxed (Perhaps)."
Lexington resident Carmen Davis has dreams of running a small business. She and a friend have been researching the possibility of opening a taxi cab company. Davis' efforts came to a screeching halt when she saw Fayette County's current taxi requirements. "I believe I started looking at the ordinance in early June and it was kind of overwhelming because to buy 25 vehicles at one time is a huge investment for a small business owner."
Members of the Louisville Orchestra's musicians union say they will reject the latest contract offer from the Orchestra. The Orchestra proposal, which outlines specific expectations for rehearsal and performance attendance, was delivered last week. It names tomorrow as the deadline for members to respond. If they don't, the orchestra says it "will be treated as a voluntary refusal to work and the Louisville Orchestra will take whatever steps are legally appropriate to fill your position."
As the NBA lockout nears the two week mark, players, managers and owners are no longer in talks about their franchises. For over thirty years, Louisville attorney J. Bruce Miller has been in talks to bring an NBA franchise to the city. But his latest attempt will most likely be his last. Bruce Miller's law office is a hybrid of two of his fascinations: Greek culture and professional basketball. Behind his desk sits a model of the Parthenon. Strewn around his office he has basketball jerseys and other basketball paraphernalia. Miller has white hair and speaks with a slight southern twang. When I spoke to him, he was wearing an NBA lapel pin on his suit.

Posted by Erik Manassy on Jul 26, 2011 in Breaking | 0 comments
The NFL Lockout is over and with one day into the new season there has been SO MANY tweets and posts to keep up with. Players have been back to Florham park, including Mark Sanchez and one player he wouldn't mind getting resigned is currently without a team.
One of the possibilities is Damien Woody joining the Jets, the current out of work lineman put out a tweet that his love is with the New York Jets.
Yesterday, former Jets right tackle Damien Woody said on ESPN Radio that "it's either Gang Green or nobody." The veteran free agent may have the chance to return to the Jets like he hoped.
The Jets have contacted Woody's agent about a possible return, in the hours since free agency opened this morning, a person with knowledge of the communication between the sides confirmed. That person requested anonymity because nothing is yet official. - per Jenny Vrentas
The Jets Beat writers have been reporting on twitter that there is a rumor that the Jets would resign the OL:
TheJetsStream Source tells me that Damien Woody is physically fine to play. #nyj #jets 7/26/11 12:59 PM |
TheJetsStream #Jets braintrust informed Damien Woody this morning they definitely would like him back this season, per sources. #nyj 7/26/11 12:58 PM |

We found this restaurant by chance after visting the nearby national stud. It is run by a husband and wife team - he is the chef and she does front of house - and is what French restaurants used to be like but now so rarely are. We had a really excellent lunch - the menu Terroir for 28 Euros. All the other diners were French - always a good sign and the place was full. If you want to have your faith in good honest French cooking restored, then this is the place to go.

News Details
Red Bull tweak tech department
Red Bull have been forced to make a change to their technical department following the departure of two key personnel to Mercedes.
Pierre Wache, who has been chief engineer of car performance since joining from Sauber earlier this year, has been promoted to head of vehicle dynamics with immediate effect.
The defending champions have made the shuffle after it was confirmed earlier this week that Giles Wood and Mark Ellis will join Mercedes next year.
"The team would like to thank Mark Ellis and Giles Wood for their contribution and wish them well for the future," the Milton Keynes squad said in a statement.

DFC is the first creek side, mixed-use waterfront community that boasts of the finest residential, shopping, dining, leisure & entertainment, international hotels, schools, golf course, automotive park and offices, said a statement from project developer AFGRE.
The DFC project is drawing on the increasing demand for high-end residences in Dubai, it added.
Offering freehold properties for the first time provides existing tenants at Dubai Festival City a much sought-after opportunity to purchase a property in one of the city's finest residential communities, said a senior official.
Ian Plumley, the general manager, property sales at DFC said: "Phase 3 in Al Badia complements the first two phases completed some 5 years ago, but this new addition heralds the start of a new phase for AFGRE, who previously only leased Townhomes and apartments within Dubai Festival City.
Plumley pointed out that Dubai was now firmly on a growth track, reflected in the increasing demand for property in established neighbourhoods like the Festival City.
'The distinctive experience, coupled with its close proximity to the waterfront shopping mall Festival Centre, the Universal American School and Deira International School, InterContinental and Crowne Plaza hotels and Al Badia Golf Course have created a strong demand for properties within DFC and we are now in a position to address this opportunity,' he stated.
The prices of Al Badia Residences phase 3 units start from Dh4.8 million and they are now ready for occupation, said Plumley.
Al Badia Residences Phase 3 has three types of Townhomes which comprise 4 & 5 bedrooms. The architecturally distinct and Mediterranean-style Townhomes range from 3,800 sq ft and 5,100 sq ft and each has a dedicated landscaped garden.
In addition, two apartment buildings, a community pool and a children's playground are under construction, thus enhancing this new community within the already popular Al Badia Residences.-TradeArabia News Service

By Laura Reynolds WASHINGTON, Jan 16 (IPS) - Despite the growing worldwide demand for organic food, clothing and other products, the area of land certified as organic still makes up just 0.9 percent of global agricultural land, with 37 million hectares being farmed organically. Organic farming delivers a wide range of benefits, including reduced human exposure to toxic chemicals, improved resilience of landscapes and greater profit margins for farmers. The countries with the most certified organic producers in 2010 were India (400,551 farmers), Uganda (188,625), and Mexico (128,826). The region that added the most organic farmland between 2009 and 2010 was Europe. Overall, the amount of organically farmed land worldwide dropped by 0.1 percent between 2009 and 2010, due largely to a decrease in organic land in India and China. Still, organic farmland has grown more than threefold since 1999. The modern organic farming movement emerged in the 1950s and 1960s largely as a reaction to consumer concerns about the rising use of agrochemicals. The period after World War II and through the 1950s is commonly known as the "golden age of pesticides". But as the health and ecological impacts of agrochemicals began to be understood, governments started to regulate their use, and consumers began demanding organically certified foods. Now fast forward to 2010, when organic food sales reached 59 billion U.S. dollars. Although the requirements for certification vary for each certifying organisation, farming organically involves following certain ecological principles, such as applying mulch to fields or rotating the crops grown in certain fields. Organic farming prohibits the use of synthetic chemicals, such as fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. Compared with conventional farming methods, organic farming is much healthier for a farm's entire ecosystem: it boosts on-farm biodiversity, protects nearby waterways from chemical pollution and helps soil retain water and nutrients, improving resilience to drought and other harsh weather patterns. It also reduces human exposure to chemicals or toxic residues, which have been linked to a variety of illnesses. The Rodale Institute, an organic research and advocacy organisation in the United States, has conducted a comparative study of organic versus conventional farming since 1981. The study focuses on corn and soybeans, for which the United States is the number one and number two producer, respectively. The study found that organic agriculture outperforms conventional farming on many levels. Over 30 years, organic fields produced equivalent yields, including 31 percent higher yields in times of moderate drought. Organic soils also retained more carbon, microbes and water, and organic systems were three times more profitable than the study's conventional systems, producing an average net return of 558 dollars per acre each year compared with 190 dollars per conventional acre. Organic fields emitted nearly 40 percent less greenhouse gases per pound of crop. Reliable data are lacking for land that is farmed according to organic principles but has not been certified organic. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) reports that the majority of smallholder farmers still operate organically by default, either because chemical inputs have not been introduced to their community, or because their complex agricultural system does not require chemical inputs. In recent decades, certified organic products have created a niche market, allowing farmers to earn premium prices over conventional products, particularly when selling to supermarkets or restaurants. Farmers in developing countries have also found that their produce will fetch a higher price if exported to more lucrative international markets. The costs of compliance with international organic standards, however, often force farmers to reduce their on-farm diversity and maximise production of a few "cash crops," such as cotton, coffee and cocoa, certified organic farming can cause some of the same ecological problems as conventional farming. Farmers may choose to avoid certification because they believe that the costs or regulation involved in certification hinders their operation, and that their customers trust them to grow food safely and healthfully. This choice is increasingly possible as farmers' markets and community-supported agriculture become mainstream worldwide. Producing food sustainably, which includes farming without chemicals whenever possible, will be extremely important in the coming decades as the global population continues to grow and as climate change affects land quality worldwide. Organic farming has the potential to contribute to food security, boost farmer incomes, enhance biodiversity and reduce ecosystems' vulnerability to climate change. But it is important too that organic farming form part of a larger, more sustainable global food system - where low-income consumers can access and afford fresh, nutritious foods; where farmers can protect endangered plant and animal species that may not be the most productive, but that can withstand drought or temperature extremes; and where supermarkets and advertisers promote consumption of healthy rather than highly processed foods. Laura Reynolds is a staff researcher with the Worldwatch Institute's Food and Agriculture Program. Read more IPS reporting here: http://www.ipsnews.net/-

2013 and earlier-Mercedes Benz GL-Class Prices Paid and Buying Experience
bmwconvert Posts: 76Our GL is black, and my wife and I like a light color interior, hence our choice. Unfortunately the results didn't work out to our liking. If I had the choice again, I would try to find a macadamia leather interior. The problem though is that it's very difficult to find this car, and when you order from the factory, negotiating a competitive price is next to impossible.
I should have known better. A friend had the same interior on an '07 model. His wife became so incensed with the "dirt" on the seats that they complained to their dealer and were ultimately able to trade the car in for a new one with black MB-tec. I convinced myself that the problem must have been unique to him. It was not. I intend to raise my complaint with Mercedes. I will post the outcome.
Another general comment about the MB-tec material. It has the appearance of being high quality (until it gets dirty), but it definitely doesn't feel that way. It has an almost rubbery, tacky feel to it. It's not so easy to slide in and out of. Your backside kind of grabs when you try. This must explain why the light material picks up the dye from blue jeans. I took delivery of my vehicle in November so I haven't yet had it in warm weather, but I suspect that it's going to be awful during the summer. Nothing worse than sweating against a synthetic seat.
Readers are probably thinking "then why'd you get it". My mistake, but again, it was hard not to. Mercedes has so few leather cars built, the color options are limited and those that are available had a bunch of useless options that I refused to pay for ($500 illuminated door sills anyone?). Several salemen I spoke to all said the material was "just like leather". Trust me -- it is not.
Honestly, I find it to be an outrage that a nearly $70k car doesn't come standard with leather. I can appreciate that there are those out there that may prefer a synthetic interior for ethical reasons, but the reality is that the vast majority of mid range and above vehicles have leather, and that's because it's what most consumers prefer.
BTW: aside from the seats, my wife, children and I all love the GL. It's exceeded our expectations in every other way and is an absolute pleasure to drive -- in fact the best riding and handling SUV I've ever been in.
I just completed my JD Powers new owner's survey. 4,000 miles in and not a single defect or reliablity issue has arisen. I am happy (and maybe lucky) to be able to say that the vehicle is flawless. -
wopel Posts: 92I have an R320 cdi (because I needed a car and couldn't wait another few months for the GL), and have the macadamia MB tec seats. I have never been able to understand why my seat is always dirty. I can't keep it clean.
I had a 320E wagon for many years and miles before this with MBtec - a light tan color, and it never was a problem. It's still going strong with another owner, and still looks good at 10yrs of age.
I thought it was me! Please keep us posted. -
kyfdx@Edmunds Posts: 25,242
occarfan Posts: 23I also own GL450 with 5000 mile. White w/ macadamia interior. You're right. The fake leather look 2 yrs old already. Our 2003 S-Class looks newer even with the kids abusing it. I should have persisted and found leather interior. I had no idea the fake leather was so bad. The salespeople are there to sell cars, so they'll tell you whatever it takes to sell that car.
chile96 Posts: 330Unfortunately I'm stuck in a single dealer town in Texas with the next closest dealer 5 hrs away. We've decided on an '08 GL 550 with an MSRP in the low 80's. We are trading in our realtively new tahoe/offroad vehicle for the city kid hauler.
Any suggestions on negotiation and ralisticexpectations would be kindly appreciated -
ocautoseeker Posts: 425
danf1 Posts: 935The only problem with that is that it is becoming difficult to find a dealer that will not require you to sign papers in the presence of a dealership representative. There is a rampant problem with these vehicles being bought in the U.S. and shipped overseas. When that happens the dealership faces a very large financial chargeback unless they can prove due diligence in verifying the identity and intentions of the purchaser.
chile96 Posts: 330I would buy from anywhere in the country if I could get it at invoice or close to. My last 4 cars I've purchased out of state and would gladly buy from Fletcher Jones if they really could do that. Is this just internet jargon or do you have definite knowledge of their pricing?
ocautoseeker Posts: 425FJ Mercedes is the #1 volume MB dealer in the US. They sell over 4500 vehicles/yr. Here in SoCal, driving a Benz is like driving a Ford in Detroit... they're all over and thus pricing is very aggressive out here to say the least.
It was just a suggestion as I was trying to save you money. It's worth a phone call to Fleet. -
chile96 Posts: 330I have already sent out a price quote request and told them the exact options I was interested in. I mentioned that I'm in TX but would be willing to fly out immediately for the sale if they could do it at invoice. Now if the pricing difference were only a grand or so, I'd just assume buy locally as my hands are full and time is precious considering I just opened up my own medical practice.
chile96 Posts: 330Well called FJ MB to see if they could really do make this happen but unfortunately they don't listen to their VM's I told them what number to call me at since I had left my cell at home and never heard a peep from them all Saturday. Finally got home late from the office and sure enough, there was a msg.
I just sent them a long email asking for them to fax the specs on cars that fit our wants so we'll see how that goes Monday. It's ashame b/cI was already to wire the money yesterday and fly out to drive back today - but what do they say about the best laid plans of mice & men???? -
mbewildered Posts: 1It seems a few people have had this exp. I bought my new GL last week and didn't suspect they would have put Yugo Leather in a $70k automobile. I picked it up at night so i didn't have a chance to "study" the leather. by the time i got home i became curious to the Quality of the seats because they were so uncomfortable. Investigation revealed that my vehicular living-room was equipped with MB-Tex (code word for plastic) interior. I called the next day an asked if it were possible that MB put rubber seats in my car and they were shocked I was concerned saying these were much better than leather. Reminding me of when I was trying to be sold on a pair of pleather shoes I lost a lot of respect MB. These seats suck, sticky, uncomfortable and likely very hot since i already sweat in them in 70 degree weather. A sales person once told me Lexus asks what the customer would like MB tells you what you get. I wish I was told I'd get 50's dinner seats with this car. any others frustrated, is my warrentee voided with a 3rd party repair /upgrade? :confuse:
chile96 Posts: 330Fletcher Jones MB responded with some guy saying he would be my sales rep and just to tell him what options and color I wanted and he would get the car for me. Well, I responded with a very nice email with black/tan and trailer hitch and rear entertainment package. I also gave him my address and 3 different contact numbers so we could hopefully do the deal and I'd wire the money out to him first thing today(Monday). I sent that email around 11am his time on Saturday and still haven't heard ANYTHING from him. I even called him today and left him a voicemail but nothing. This guy is acting like he doesn't want to sell me a car??? We didn't even get to talk price yet
ocautoseeker Posts: 425
occarfan Posts: 23Sorry you're having such a tough time. But great deals are common in Orange County. I bought my 03 S430 for 16% off MSRP in Laguna Niguel. And my 07 GL450 for 10% off in Anaheim. No haggles. Didn't even take much negotiating.
I even negotiated the GL price before I came in.
I have looked at FJ in Newport Beach, but was never happy with their sales people.
The cars I bought were well below invoice. For the GL550 I don't think invoice is out of ther question even though it's relatively new. I notice lots of them sitting on the lot when I go to get my GL washed.
If you want I can inquire with my salesperson about what you're looking for and see what kind of price you can get. Or I can give you his contact. Or tell him to call/email you.
I am new to this blog and don't know how we can contact each other via email. I don't even know if I'm able to give the salesperson's name at this site.
Let me know if I can be of help. -
bmwconvert Posts: 76As noted in my earlier posts on this topic, I intend to complain -- loudly -- to MB about the MB-Tex... just haven't had the time to do so yet. I doubt I can win an argument on how uncomfortable they are, despite how bad they feel. I do however think the discoloration issue is a legitimate defect. My hope is I can either get the front seats replaced with leather, or at the very least get some money back to cover the cost of high quality sheepskin seat covers. I suspect my kids in the back seats will have to continue to suffer.
It's a real shame because I otherwise unconditionally love this vehicle. -
occarfan Posts: 23I agree with you. My 07 GL450 is only 6 months old but look 5 yr old. I will never buy "fake" leather again. MB says it's my 1 and 3 yr old. I wasn't aware they sat in the driver's seat b/c that seat look the worst. I've had 2 other MB in the past with leather and never this problem.
british_rover Posts: 8,476Its funny because back before the merger of equals MB-Tex wore like iron but looked and felt so much like real leather that sometimes you can't tell the difference. I get the occasional late 90s early 2000 MB in with a MB-Tex interior and unless I really study it I can't tell the difference between it and real leather. MB must have changed the formula the use for the MB-Tex because it is of much lower quality then it used to be.

MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Timberwolves say Kevin Love does not need surgery to repair two broken bones in his right hand.
Love met with specialists in New York on Thursday, one day after breaking his hand while doing knuckle pushups in a morning workout. Doctors informed Love that the injury can heal without surgery, but he is still expected to miss six to eight weeks.
Coach Rick Adelman says he will spend the next two weeks of the preseason experimenting with lineups to see what the best combinations will be to reduce the damage done by Love's absence. The two-time All-Star averaged 26 points and 13.3 rebounds last season.
Adelman says they'll need everyone to step up. He thinks Brandon Roy will have to take over more of the scoring load.

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. closed out its record-breaking 2012 with sales of more than 580,200 units, making 2012 the best year in the organization's U.S. sales history. The Volkswagen Group's previous sales record was set in 1970, when the organization delivered 577,387 units in the U.S. market. The market share of VWGoA was 4.0 in 2012, up 0.6 from 2011.
"Our employees and our dealer and supplier partners have worked very hard to establish foundations for success in the U.S. market, and they deserve so much credit for setting this new record," said Jonathan Browning, president and CEO, Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. "We are pleased to see all of our brands contributing to growth and setting this new landmark".
The Volkswagen brand had its best year since 1973, selling 438,133 vehicles. Volkswagen saw success with models across the portfolio. Since 2009, the Volkswagen brand has increased sales by 105 percent. The Chattanooga-built Passat sold 117,023 units, its best year ever. The company's volume-leading Jetta sold 170,424 vehicles. 2012 also marked the best year ever for the Tiguan, which sold 31,731 vehicles for the year, an increase of 22.1 percent.
The Audi brand continued its momentum with its best year ever, delivering 139,310 vehicles. Since 2009, the brand has increased sales by 68 percent. Audi ended the year with its 24th consecutive month of record sales, and December 2012 was the best month ever since Audi began selling cars in the U.S. market in 1970. Never before had Audi sold more than 13,000 vehicles in a month, but in December 2012, the brand delivered 14,841.
The luxury brands of the Volkswagen Group of America also saw significant gains in 2012. Bentley delivered 2,315 vehicles for the year. In 2013, Bentley Motors of the Americas will be moving its U.S. headquarters from Boston to Herndon, Va., joining Volkswagen of America, Audi of America, Lamborghini and VW Credit, Inc.
Bugatti had a successful 2012. Lamborghini ended the year with growth of more than 50 percent.
The year saw the opening of a new $27 million technical center in Oxnard, Ca., as well as the groundbreaking of a parts distribution center in Roane County, Tn. and the expansion of the company's financial services arm, VCI, Inc., in Libertyville, Il. Both will open in 2013. In January 2013, one of the largest solar parks in Tennessee will open on the Volkswagen Chattanooga site, providing 9.5 megawatts, up to 12.5 percent of the 2 million-square-foot plant's power.

As they have for the past several months, post-Hollywood Park racing plans will dominate the agenda for the California Horse Racing Board when it meets Sept. 19 at the Sheraton Fairplex Conference Center in Pomona beginning at 9:30 a.m. PDT.
Board members and industry stakeholders are close to finalizing a proposal for year-round off-track stabling and training once Betfair Hollywood Park closes for good. The Inglewood track is scheduled to shutter for racing at the conclusion of its upcoming autumn meet Dec. 22. It plans to remain open for stabling until at least the end of January 2014 before embarking on a large-scale development project that will result in the demolishment of the 75-year-old racing facility.
Chuck Winner, the CHRB's assistant chairman, said, "We are working on it feverishly," when asked about the status of training plans once Hollywood is no longer in the picture. He declined to discuss specifics, saying negotiations are at a critical stage, but is hopeful he will have a plan to present to the board for approval Thursday.
Representatives from the Thoroughbred Owners of California, the California Thoroughbred Trainers, Santa Anita Park, Del Mar, Los Alamitos Race Course, San Luis Rey Downs training center, and Fairplex Park have been taking part in the ongoing discussions.
Also on the agenda is a request from Los Alamitos to be allocated two Thoroughbred meets totaling five weeks each in 2014-15. The nighttime Quarter Horse track is proposing expansion of its current track to one mile for Thoroughbred racing consisting of two weeks in early July and three weeks in December.
The board expects to hear from Hollywood representatives as they seek approval for their application to conduct the final meet, which is to begin Nov. 6.
Also on the agenda is finalizing race date requests for Northern California in 2014-15.
In addition to the regular monthly meeting of the board, two committee meetings are also scheduled Sept. 18 at the Sheraton Fairplex Conference Center. The Medication and Track Safety Committee will meet at 2 p.m. and will be followed immediately by a meeting of the Jockey and Driver Welfare Committee.
The public is invited to attend all of the meetings, which will be held at 601 W. McKinley Ave., in Pomona, adjacent to the Los Angeles County Fairgrounds. The agendas and supporting packages of materials for these meetings are available at the CHRB website, www.chrb.ca.gov.
An audio-only Webcast of the main board meeting can also be accessed Thursday through the "Webcasts" link on the CHRB website.
