Boasting outstanding performance and efficiency, the Cayenne Diesel is ideal for longer journeys – offering high levels of torque, while fuel consumption remains low.
Its 3.0-litre V6 turbo-diesel engine is now more powerful and refined, and approximately 20 kg lighter.* The unit generates 180 kW (245 hp) and maximum torque of 550 Nm. The sprint to 100 km/h requires just 7.6 seconds. Top speed is 220 km/h. Fuel consumption now comes in at just 7.2 l/100 km in the combined test cycle.
Direct fuel injection comes courtesy of a common-rail injection system. The piezoelectric injectors enable multiple injections at a pressure of up to 2,000 bar, ensuring optimum distribution of the air/fuel mixture – for improved dynamics.
The turbocharger on the Cayenne Diesel features Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG). Combined with optimised channelling of the intake air, it enhances the charging effect, thereby generating a higher output and impressive torque, even at low engine speeds.
The standard eight-speed Tiptronic S includes gearshift controls on the steering wheel. Transmitting the high torque of the Cayenne Diesel smoothly and effectively, the eight gears are designed to facilitate both economical driving with low fuel consumption and performance driving with emphatic acceleration.
Porsche Traction Management (PTM) permanent all-wheel drive with self-locking centre differential transmits the car's power to all four wheels with optimum precision and control.
Available as a no-cost option, the 100-litre fuel tank increases the range to well over 1,000 km while keeping the engine rpm and noise levels low.
The Cayenne Diesel: proof that a 100-metre sprinter can also run a marathon.

Installed new HD and want to reinstall CS5. Where is it on Adobe's site?
If you licensed/registered it directly from the Adobe site, you should be able to open http://www.adobe.com/ and find a download link under My Adobe or My Orders.
Welcome to the forum.
When you do find the download link under My Adobe, and download it, burn it to a DVD-Data disc for later. Not sure how long Adobe keeps older download links up for, but I would want to have the file safely in my closet - just in case. Make sure to put a label on it with your S/N.
Good luck,
My purchase option was 'ship in a box' and the box contained no CD, just the serial number that activated my CS5 trial into a full licenced version.
That is more than "odd."
There should have been a DVD case with the discs inside the box.
For the trial verson of CS5, try ProDesign Tools: http://prodesigntools.com/tag/ddl
Then, when downloaded and installed, just plug in your S/N.
Good luck,

After a finale that included blood, fire, pregnancy and heartbreak, The L.A. Complex is back.
When we last saw the residents of The Lux, Tariq (Benjamin Charles Watson) had been nearly beaten to death by his in-the-closet rap superstar boyfriend Kaldrick King (Andra Fuller), Abby (Cassie Steele) and Nick (Joe Dinicol) were officially a couple, Raquel (Jewel Staite) learned she was pregnant, Alicia (Chelan Simmons) booked the gig of a lifetime and Connor (Jonathan Patrick Moore) had purposely set his mansion on fire. When the series returns on Tuesday (9/8c, The CW), expect familiar faces to leave, newcomers to move in and immediate resolution to the freshman season's cliff-hangers.
Sex, stripping and hot twentysomethings trying to make it in Hollywood? Yep, welcome to your newest guilty pleasure, The L.A. Complex.
VIDEO: Watch the series premiere of L.A. Complex now
The new CW series, imported from Canada, features an group of friends living in a seedy motel-style apartment complex struggling to make it in Tinseltown. At the focus is Abby, played by Degrassi alum Cassie Steele, a talented actress who has yet to get her big break. And if you've seen the opening scene of the premiere (the full episode is online), there's nothing glamorous about Abby's or her friends' paths to success. "Quite often people get into very desperate and bad places," Steele tells TVGuide.com. "That's what's interesting [about the show], seeing what people have to deal with on the dark side to get where they want to in life."
A week before The L.A. Complex premieres on The CW, you can watch the first episode online now.

Eating brains was only part of the pleasure for Jewel Staite when she guest-starred on Friday's episode of The CW's Supernatural (9/8c).
"I saw that Jensen [Ackles] was directing," Staite tells TVGuide.com. "He's an old friend of mine, so I thought, 'Ooooh, fun! That would be great.' Luckily it all worked out. When you get on a show where one of the actors is directing, it can go either way. Sometimes they can stress out if they have too much on their plate, but he was so calm and so cool and so collected. He just really impressed me. We had some days we didn't even go the full 12 hours of shooting. We were let out early because he knew exactly what he wanted and when he got it, he moved on."
Supernatural returns for its seventh season Friday at 9/8c on The CW with two burning questions: What do you do when you become God? And what do you do when you're the new God's former best friends?
After ingesting all of the souls and their powers in Purgatory last season, Castiel (Misha Collins) declared himself the new God and demanded Sam and Dean Winchester (Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles) bow down before him ... or die. Although the brothers have encountered and even defeated their share of demons, angels and other non-humans before, God is a different story.

The Bakken formation mania which gripped investors in early 2010 has subsided, but the symptoms of a new mania are showing up on many companies with land holdings in Montana. Land prices have risen significantly from under $100/acre whereas the industry spent millions of dollars grabbing land during 2010-2011 and is now ramping up to spend millions more as multi-well programs are planned for 2013. Truth is that some good wells have been discovered in Montana like the Brigham-operated #1-H Gobbs 17-8 A well in Roosevelt County with an IP-24h of 1,817 boepd and the XTO Energy-operated #11X-12 Thiel well in Richland County with an IP-24h of 1,201 boepd, but the area needs more such results to climb on the top of the oil-producing States.
After the first four parts, this is the last part from this series dedicated exclusively on Montana and the players of that highly prospective area.
The companies
Although Enerplus Corporation (ERF) has a concentrated core land position in North Dakota (Dunn and McKenzie Counties), it also holds significant contiguous acreage (90% WI) at Sleeping Giant, a mature Bakken field in Richland County of Montana with a low decline rate (14%) producing 7,300 boepd currently.
There is a strong upside potential from that acreage as the company has not implemented any waterflood program yet and the recovery rate is still very low (8%). Enerplus plans to spend 85% of its capex for 2013 on oil and liquids rich plays so I expect its production and its 2P Reserves in Montana to rise significantly.
To me, Enerplus has the best acreage in Montana and it has also made the most progress on it among all the other producers there.
Montana plays a big role for MDU Resources (MDU) which has activities in different sectors from utilities, pipeline and energy services to construction and E&P exploration. The company's balanced portfolio targets primarily the North Dakota and Montana region. It is estimated that the Bakken region will have a 52% population increase over the next 20 years and MDU invests heavily in that area holding currently the most extensive natural gas transportation system there.
Regarding its E&P activities, MDU owns 57,000 net acres in Richland County, Montana adjacent to the Elm Coulee field targeting the Bakken and the Three Forks formations. The estimated EUR rates per well there are 250,000 to 400,000 Bbls.
The first results from that acreage are not exciting, but they have 24-hour IP rates between 70 and 250 boepd. My take on MDU is that this company is primarily for the income investors as it has a history of 75 consecutive years of quarterly dividend payments with 22 consecutive years of increases. Other than that, it is fairly priced in comparison to its peers from the Utilities and the Pipelines sectors.
Through this series of articles, I believe I have concentrated all the ongoing exploration and production activity in Montana giving also the readers a very good overview about Montana's oil potential. It is clear that Montana's acreage has not proved yet that it deserves a premium pricing. This is why I remain cautious about establishing a position in a company which is heavily Montana-weighted. To me, Enerplus Corporation has the best acreage there and it has also made the most progress de-risking its acreage. The other players have either failed to find commercially viable oil or they are in a "sit and wait" mode or their first results are well below expectations.
This being said, if I had to pick one player with properties in Montana, I would go for Enerplus Corporation, which has a well diversified asset base in conjunction with a good dividend and a strong balance sheet.

Staff Report
A Springboro company that already has 97 laid-off workers will lay off another 77 next year, leaving about only 20 local workers and an uncertain future.
Battery manufacturer Ovonic Energy Products Inc. is retooling its production line to make a different kind of battery and is laying off employees while it does so, said the head of the union that represents Ovonic workers.
But Ovonic has told Ohio government that it does not know whether the layoffs will be temporary or permanent. It will lay off 77 employees for at least six months beginning in March, according to a WARN (Worker Adjustment Retraining Notification) notice the company filed with the state.
The layoffs will begin March 2, Rachel Reed, the company said in a Nov. 18 letter to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services.
In addition to the planned layoffs, the company already has 97 employees currently on layoff, Reed wrote. Many of those inactive workers will see their recall rights end next year, she wrote.
In early 2009, Ovonic told the state that it may not be able to recall 119 of 207 workers that it had earlier laid off.
The company is a division of Orion, Mich.-based Cobasys . Ovonics is its only manufacturing facility.
Neither Thomas Neslage, Cobasys chief executive, nor Matt Jonas, Ovonic vice president, manufacturing, returned calls seeking comment.
In late 2010, SB LiMotive — a Korean-German joint venture which acquired Cobasys in 2009 — announced it would assemble lithium-ion batteries for the Fiat 500EV at the plant at 50 Ovonic Way.
James Winship, president of the International Union of Electronic Workers-Communication Workers of America Local 755, which represents Ovonic workers, said the company is transitioning from the production of nickel metal hydride batteries to lithium batteries for electric-hybrid automobiles. The layoffs are occurring while the production line is being retooled, he said.
"It's a massive undertaking when you change the line," Winship said.
The company has not lost any customers, he said. The union hopes that the layoffs will be temporary, and he said the company has "actually been good to us" for giving workers four months' notice on the coming layoffs.
Winship said he feels "confident that all those affected will be called back."

Out of breath at the top of a flight of stairs and her lips and fingers tingling, a 363-pound Tiffany Duffield decided she had had enough. At 29 years old, she had to lose weight. "That was my breaking point. I called my husband and said I can't do this anymore," Duffield said. "I felt like I was going to die."
The Carson City Police Department is placing a renewed focus on reaching out to the community it pledges to protect, now through the means of social media. On Feb. 18, Officer Jason Pattok created the official Carson City Police Department Facebook page, an online platform he hopes will serve as a tool to engage members of the community on a more regular basis.
A 14-year-old Belding area boy was injured Monday afternoon when he was riding a sled pulled behind a snowmobile, and then fell off of the sled.
Nature took its toll on this year's Winterfest in Lakeview, held Saturday. Many planned events were canceled because, ironically, of both warm weather and cold.
Just a few years ago, Montcalm County Animal Control was under fire from everyone from animal rights activists to run-of-the-mill pet owners. Management was slipshod, conditions and cleanliness were abysmal and euthanasia practices were archaic and — according to many — inhumane. The shelter actually had a contract with an individual who re-sold former pets and strays alike to animal testing facilities. What a difference three years can make.
The police officers in this village are hanging up their blue uniform and donning a garment of brown. Today, the Howard City Police Department officially merges with the Montcalm County Sheriff's Office, bringing an end to the police department history of nearly six decades. It's a noteworthy undertaking, unmatched by any other in county history, as far as Sheriff Bill Barnwell knows.

Report: Clippers have 'intensified discussions' with coach Byron Scott
After talks with Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers broke down on Friday, the Los Angeles Clippers have "intensified discussions" with head coaching candidate Byron Scott, ESPN's Chris Broussard is reporting.
Clippers president Andy Roeser has discussed financial terms with Scott's representatives, which the team has not done with Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins, another candidate for the job along with Pacers assistant Brian Shaw.
The Clippers have not reached out to Shaw since discussions with Rivers ended on Friday, but do have an idea of his asking price, according to the report.
The team plans to revisit talks with Rivers one more time before making front office members make their recommendations on Monday.
From the report:
Sources told ESPN.com's Ramona Shelburne the Clippers still intend to revisit the Rivers talks one more time, but are using the weekend to make sure they can quickly move on to one of the other three candidates — Scott, Lionel Hollins and Brian Shaw — should the talks with Boston go nowhere.
Roeser and other members of the front office are expected to present their recommendations for the head coach to Sterling on Monday, with a resolution expected soon thereafter, and possibly the same day.
The Celtics are scheduled to hold a news conference to discuss the future of Rivers on Monday. The news conference originally was scheduled for Friday but was postponed.
Scott is close with free-agent Clippers star Chris Paul, who he coached in New Orleans. The 52-year-old was fired by the Cavaliers after three straight seasons with less than 25 wins.
Scott owns a 416-521 (.444) career record with the Nets, Hornets and Cavs. He led the Nets to back-to-back NBA Finals in 2002 and '03 and the Hornets to the second round in 2008.

Idiopathic autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is an acquired disease that occurs when antibodies form against a person's own red blood cells. One of the most important issues associated with the early diagnosis and acute management of AIHA is the communication between the blood banker and the hematologist. Diagnosis followed by acute and chronic management of AIHA involves the use of appropriate diagnostics to suspect, confirm, and manage the treatment of patients with AIHA. This webinar reviewed these tenets to ensure that patients with AIHA receive the highest quality of care. ASH is grateful to The Henry Loring Masters Foundation for building awareness among caregivers, patients, and families of the critical path and timelines for treatment of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA) in young people and for providing support for the development and distribution of this valuable webinar.
Clinical Presentation Associated with Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia
Speaker: Marc Kahn, MD, MBA, Tulane University School of Medicine, New Orleans, LADr. Kahn discussed symptoms associated with AIHA, the differential diagnosis in this group of patients and the laboratory tests used to confirm diagnosis. Dr. Kahn also presented information regarding the acute and long term management of AIHA patients.
Role of the Blood Bank in Making the Diagnosis and Communication with the Hematologist
Speaker: Leslie E. Silberstein, MD, Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, MADr. Silberstein presented information related to the important role of the blood bank in making the diagnosis, how and when blood transfusions are an acceptable treatment for patients with AIHA, including challenges in finding the best matched blood cells for transfusion. He also discussed the important roles of the blood banker and hematologist in managing the quality of care for these patients.

We have new information Monday about the weekend car accident that killed 3 young men from Sioux City.
The driver, 21-year old Torey Wickey, 23-year old Dominique Nok and 24-year old Matthew Dean all of Sioux City died early Sunday morning when the car they were in crashed into Perry Creek in Sioux City.
But their tragic night may have began miles away in Storm Lake.
That's where Mark Prosser, Storm Lake's Public Safety Director , tell us that at least 2 911 calls were made reporting speeding and erratic driving in connection with a car with the same license plate as the one found in Perry Creek on Sunday.
Two other victims were injured in the accident.
Alcohol is believed to be a factor in the crash.

Integrating Tuberculosis Case Finding into Focused Antenatal Care
Council researchers documented the feasibility of integrating TB detection within services for expectant mothers and prevention of mother-to-child transmission.
Researchers with the Council's FRONTIERS program worked with the National Tuberculosis and Leprosy Control Unit and the Ministry of Health's Division of Reproductive Health to integrate tuberculosis (TB) screening and management within antenatal care (ANC) services. The project documented the feasibility of integrating TB detection within services for expectant mothers and prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT). Project activities included training health workers to improve their knowledge of TB and ANC services, strengthen their capacity to detect TB in pregnant clients, and refer or manage suspected cases. Researchers will evaluate the intervention's effect on outcomes among TB-positive women.

Google's Andy Rubin: 'No plans' to open Android stores
The head of Google's Android business shows no interest in going the Apple route -- at least for now -- saying that customers have other ways to get the info they need to make smart buying choices.
So, last week an "extremely reliable source" told blog 9to5 Google there was big news coming: Google was planning to build standalone retail stores in the U.S. to sell Android devices, and the first outlets might even be open in major metropolitan areas in time for the holidays.
Andy Rubin, who heads up Google's Android business and also qualifies as an extremely reliable source when it comes to this particular company, offered a different appraisal during a meeting with reporters in Barcelona today during Mobile World Congress. "Google has no plans, and we have nothing to announce," he said, and he suggested that changes in customer behavior recently have undercut the traditional rationale for a traditional retail outlet.
"A few years ago, consumers needed to touch and feel devices, but these days they can often get the information they need to make a purchase decision by talking to friends and reading reviews," he told reporters. "They don't have to go in the store and feel it anymore."
Rubin's nyet echoed a similar statement last December, when Google Shopping head Sameer Samat told AllThingsD that the company "had no aspirations to open a store."

Both these products are premium priced offerings whose success in the market would be helped by knowledgeable salespeople -- in much the same way Apple has used its stores so expertly to sell its myriad lines. And like Apple, Google has the resources to invest should it ever decide this is the right direction.
Truth be told, however, making a successful go of it at retail is as hard as it's ever been. Apple is the exception in the technology industry's history of single-store brands sold through company owned outlets, a chronicle chockablock with high-profile failures, including IBM, CompuAdd, Gateway, and Dell, among others.

I have repurchaeed this product 5 times, I love it and will continue to repurchase it always!
I first bought the set 4 mini sized bb creams in the skin79 set. I liked the pink one but this one is just so much more moisturising which is perfect for my dry skin. The other two, pearl and dismond if i recall correctly, were way too shimmery!
I use it daily under my foundation. I first apply my Nivea soy complex day creme and Avene eye cream. I the brush my teeth to give this time to sink in. Then I apply this BB cream and directly on top my Estée Laudet Double Wear foundation. It gives me high coverage and a smooth finish... My makeup also stays all day with minimal creasing into fine lines and it's all because of this BB cream!
I don't have the problem with the colour as I a very fair NC15 - NC20 and it just sinks into my skin,not making it any lighter or darker.
I gave the product a low score for packaging as the bottle is terrible for travelling with and I have to pump it into a small screw top jar. The bottle is cute and perfect for everyday use, it just needs to be more secure for travel.
I will forever repurchase this to use as a makeup base/primer. I very rarely go without makeup but when I do I still wear this. HG for sure!

I love this BB cream! Easy to blend and has a dewy finish. What I do is, I apply it all over my face then I wait for appx 5mins before lightly patting my fave (Sephora) foundation.
I was really hoping this BB cream would be "it" for me! I am SUPER pale, so I could only imagine that it would be perfect and blend seamlessly.
First of all, I went through all the necessary precautions to make sure the one I bought on amazon was real. After being about 98% sure, I finally tried it. Now, I am probably as pale as someone gets. Like, the not so pretty kind of pale where you kind of look dead. I am also 3/4 caucasian and 1/4 asian and seem to have taken on a more olivey than pink skintone. This BB cream was EXTREMELY pink on me, and it looked like I had pregnancy mask on my face. HORRIBLE look. Aside from that, even with a light hand, the BB cream looked caked on, no matter how many ways I tried to put it on. It would not blend in because it was so pink against my neck that it looked like someone photoshopped a different head onto my body. I guess, needless to say, I will not buy again. Especially considering the hassle with so many asian products that you always have to try to figure out if they're fake.

I have dry skin and a very large pores on my nose and this covers everything perfectly! It doesn't feel gross to put on either and it last almost all day! I love this product!
This is a great bb cream. It has spf, moisture, and a light buildable coverage. It also claims to have wrinkle improvement and skin whitening propertys, but I haven't seen much of that in the few months I've been using this. It does have a bit of moisture, but I'd still recommend using a moisturiser underneath this. I really do like this BB cream, it hasn't broken me out, and even though it looks kind of greyish, it oxidizes to my skin tone perfectly. The reason I took off 2 lippies was the packaging and the coverage.
The coverage is pretty light, and I wish it was a bit fuller, but BB creams are supposed to be more light weight. That's not why I took off a lippy. It did not work with my concealers. AT ALL! Whenever i used my undereye concealer (rimmel match perfection), it woukd kind of crease up, and wouldn't let me blend the concealer in. It just sat there like creasy panda eyes. The second lippy got revoked because my pump broke. I didn't even drop it or anything! Itjust pumped out less and less product each time, until it just stopped. I tried to see if it was clogged or something by opening up the bottle (use a bobby pin to push the little hole at the bottom of the bottle. It should just pop up), but the flat little pump thing seemed fine. I'm pretty upset by this cuz I still have A LOT of product left in the bottle, that I now have to get out with a finger or something. So not sanitary:(.
I got mine off prettyandcute.com. I heard a lot of people got theirs off ebay, and there's a lot of fakes there. A few ways to check if you got the right one is if the BB cream is kind of greyish when you pump it out, and if there's a little code at the bottom of the bottle. Also, open up the bottle, and the pump inside shouldn't be a long straw, like in the spray bottles. It should be more flat and small.
Hope i helped and good luck with your BB cream. Try not to break it 'sigh'

I'm just reaching the end of my first bottle of this, and I have loved it so much.
I read that it was great for dryer skins and bought it when I had very very dry skin (due to acne treatments), since all other foundations would go flakey. It didn't ever highlight my dry patches, and was super moisturizing. I've since stopped using my acne treatment fash wash that dried it out, and my skin has become more combination/normal, but this still looks flawless on.
The coverage is light initially, but you can build it to a medium because it never cakes. It is super easy to blend, and makes my pores look smaller.
It has a very dewy finish, so I usually just set it with powder, and then it lasts all day.
I'm very fair, I think an NC15, and this matches my skin perfectly, although it matches it just as well even when I'm more tan, which I love.
My only con would be the pump not allowing you to see how much is left, so it's a bit of a guessing game there. But other than that I really love this BB cream!

I loved the finish this gave to my skin, it made my pores look so much smaller and gave me a really nice glow.
Unfortunately, it also made my skin itch. It wasn't terrible, but my skin was also feeling very sensitive the next day, everytime after I used this product. I am probably just allergic to some ingredients and can't use it anymore. I am quite upset about that!
The packaging looks very cute, I love the shiny little pump bottle.
More reviews by makeup4evrchristine
I had tried a sample of this in a small satchet given to me by a friend and I absolutely loved it! The color selection is non-existent, but being a fair skinned Asian, this suited me quite well. The consistency of this is better than the Hot Pink one because it hydrated my skin more without being overly greasy. I didn't have enough product to see the long term benefits but I would definitely purchase this in the future.
This stuff has blown me away! It's the most perfect match for my NW20 skin I've ever used. But it's not only that - it blends superbly. No tidemarks on the nose, no pooling in pores....I mean you really can just slap this stuff on any old way and it seems to sit perfectly. Actually, the finish is so diffuse and soft it actually seems to minimise the appearance of pores! The coverage is fairly light at first but you can build it up so easily. I double it up under the eyes to get a bit more coverage for my dark circles.
CONS? Not a whole lot, tbh. I can't imagine anyone darker than me could use it though. And even with a great shade match it's still covering everything like a foundation - in other words, you become kinda uni-shade. I have to use a cream blusher so I don't look too pale on my cheeks.
But I can't think of anything else - this totally replaces MAC F&B for me as a light foundation. By the way, I trialled the Pink one on one side of my face and the Gold on the other - I honestly couldn't see any difference. Some ppl say the Pink is matte compared to this but they're both fairly satin finished to my eyes. But I ordered full size in the Gold as I'm late thirties and this one seems more recommended for my age.
Best 6 on Ebay I ever spent!!!

Great bb cream! Packaging is hygienic and aesthetic, the price is good for the amount of product. I bought mine off eBay for $14-15 including shipping. I use it everyday now! The coverage is light and the finish is quite dewy, which is what I want for daily use. The lasting power could be better but I am only looking for light coverage anyway. It is quite moisturizing and great for my dry, sensitive skin. The colour is perfect and looks super natural. Its probably better for yellow-toned skin though. I recommend this for anyone with yellow to neutral undertones and dry skin who want light daily wear. The SPF is an added bonus as well!

Residents call foulParents step up to bat for school sportsJanuary 11, 2013Following rumors of proposed budget cuts to middle school sports programs in Barbour County, concerned parents and community members have banded together to take a proactive approach to the situation.... audyhazeAND EXPECT another LEVY soon! Barbour County residents are ripe for the FLIMFLAM man!! Believe me it has already been discussed and in the plans. YOU HAVE BEEN FORE WARNED! This one will be a good one and more than Obama's tax raises. When all is said and done, I doubt if we have any money left to buy our spouses a birthday card(s)! 1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » audyhazeWhen I was a kid, I acted like a kid, I played with kid toys, but when I became a man (18),I put away my toys, acted like a man, graduated from school/college,got a good job and moved to higher plains. Now what is being reflected here on this site, is yes the Parents have never grown up, graduated, learned anything about being an adult, have no sense of parentism and cannot teach it to there kids. What PureMagix is saying is truth & what I read is; let your kids grow up, do your parentism job of supplying them all the tools they need but keep the heck out of there business unless they are breaking the law...then get involved fast! Unless you make more money or have more money than I do, then get a job andor volunteer your services or buy a bus or uniforms & things kids need. Now about stupid, stupid is as stupid does! Forest Gump said it rite! 1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Soccermom3Also, maybe if some of you would take the time to go to a school sporting event and show support for the kids in your area you would see that what you are saying is nonsense. While parents in Barbour Co are passionate about their children when they play sports, MOST of us are also passionate about our children getting good grades. Because if they don't have the grades, they won't play or be able to further their education. Maybe before you make comments that make yourself look stupid, you should consider all the facts. If you were not involved in this meeting or know what occurred to bring the meeting about, you should not assume that you know what is happening. 1 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Soccermom3Here is what all of you don't seem to understand. We were all at this meeting to discuss ways to help fund middle school sports just in case it would become a reality that the BOE would see the need to cut funding. I do not know what happens in other counties with school sports, but I can tell you that in Barbour Co parents are not only there for their children's sporting events, but also are there to ensure that their children receive an education. My daughter has played sports since she was 3, it is/has always been HER choice to play. She now plays HS sports AND is on the honor roll. She works hard and earns her grades. Barbour County teachers WILL NOT give athletes grades to play, they must be EARNED. Education is VERY important. All the parents that attended the meeting in question want the best education for their children, but they also want them to have the benefits that come along with sports. It helps children gain self esteem, make friends and become well rounded adults. 2 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » audyhazeOh I forgot to mention that schools are going to operate, sports will be played and students will participate. If not we contact our Senator (Machin).. he is working in our behalf.. taking our hunting rights away, food off our table. Now think about this instead of a bassetball or feetball or suckerball! Thats all it is except the band and cheerleaders! They will play on and on. I have read and reread all these posts below and wow what a bunch of losers (except the level headed posters).. listen to PureMagix,TruthSayer. They are pretty good! They tell it like it really is. Just my opinion. 1 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » audyhazeFolks, folks..quit pokin yur finger in each others eyes. What you lost in all this is: BOE is ramming it down yur throats (now think) Levy! It failed, you voted against it and now the seeds of "what if" & everything they can throw into the winds. I smell the likes of Phares and crew of Randolph in Barbour County!! If another Levy was presented tomorrow, it would pass!! Quess what!! What a bunch of morons we are. Reverse Psycology.. works everytime. Just mention the students, sports we forget what schooling was made for! God Help us! 1 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » playfarewhat I meant to say is how would you know about the relationships between a parent and their children. 0 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » playfarePure, People only have to read your comments to know what kind of person you are. Your comments about the intelligence of these parents just shows you arrogance. You have said you have no children so how could you know about the parent have with their children? Stick with something you really know something about. I truly don't think that is too awful much. 0 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » TruthSeekerWOuldn't it be nice if this many showed up at the schools when they had parent/teacher conferences? Yeah. No wonder WV kids grades SUCK! 1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse » TruthSeekerJust listen to these parents. I bet not ONE of them would have showed up if they said we're taking reading and math out of the curriculum. Hmm...and we wonder why the children graduate STUPID. ANy teacher will tell you parents won't return their calls; don't show up for meetings, don't get involved in their childrens STUDYING and LEARNING. But boy.....not one of them would miss a sports event, eh?? And we wonder why WV has so many UNSKILLED workers?????????? 1 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » TruthSeekerOh Boo Hoo. I bet the entire group of parents AND their kids' IQ combined wouldn't make the grade to be even registered. SPORTS is an 'extra-curricular' activity. PAY for it yourselves. Taxpayers should NOT be paying for after school sports. Parents fund it or get rid of it. Teach the kids to READ, WRITE, SPELL, ADD, SUBTRACT, HISTORY, SCIENCE and stop making them stupid but hey, they can play ball. Duh! 1 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » playfareFolks, just ignore puremagic. He does'nt like anything or anybody.... 0 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse » mwise54Parents don't have a problem funding them, the problem is that by and large the community doesn't care enough about the schools in general. If they did, the bond and levies would have passed, but instead they were beaten by a large margin. I've played every sport I could, and I've coached several teams in baseball and soccer as an adult, and there are VERY few kids that are being forced into it. And in all of these recreational leagues, the parents are indeed paying for it. They pay for it through registration fees, by volunteering time, by running the concession stands, etc. Money spent on sports is not "wasted". Myself and soccermom have given multiple examples of how its good for kids. I don't see how you equate money spent on sports with poor math skills. They are independent activities. You bemoan the money spent on sports and poor education while simultaneously discrediting college as well. You make a lot of blanket statements that are patently false. 1 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Soccermom3Puremagix, I am not sure that you were reading the same article that we read. I was at the meeting last night, and what the parents are trying to do is keep the middle school sports program there so that those kids that want to play, have that option. Most children are not "forced" into playing sports, most "choose" to play sports. Playing sports helps kids realize that they have to do well academically or they cannot play. They work hard in both areas so that they can feel good about themselves. It helps with self-esteem, and several other qualities. Maybe you were not good at sports and therefore think that you should put those down that are good at playing sports. Whatever the reason for your comments, there are those of us who would work hard to make sure that our children are given the same opportunities as every other child when it comes to academics and/or sports. I want my children to be able to excel in whatever he/she desires. 1 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse » mwise54Puremagix, IQ is an innate ability, the schools have no control whatsoever over childrens' IQ's. I have had friends for many decades that I had no contact with other than sports growing up. It teaches kids the value of teamwork and how to set goals and work towards those goals. It teaches kids accountability to people besides themselves. In school it allows kids to be part of a positive group. The friendships develop last a lifetime. There are tons of good things that come from sports rather than adults trying to live vicariously through their kids. On a more constructive note, if sports are truly on the chopping block, would it not make sense to try adding a modest surcharge to the recreational league registration that would go to the middle schools? Perhaps an extra dollar for registration for each kid. It might help close the gap a little. Or purhaps a similar surcharge for admittance into the highschool sporting events. 1 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Showing 15 of 15 comments

Plans are in the works to organize support for a local resident whose home was severely damaged by a fire earlier this week.
A fundraiser featuring Papa Josh is scheduled for The Pony on the evening of Jan. 12 to help Nick Antonelli, whose Pemberton Meadows Road home burned on Monday evening (Dec. 31).
Antonelli has been staying with friends since the fire while salvaging what belongings he can from the house. He declined an interview with The Question but offered thanks via a spokesperson to all who have provided help so far.
�We had guys there all day yesterday, and we�ll have them there today and tomorrow just helping the owner go through and try to retrieve whatever personal valuables can be rescued,� Pemberton fire chief Russell Mack said Wednesday (Jan. 2).
�It was a very sad situation.�
Mack said fire crews arrived at the house, located a short distance past Kia Ora Court, shortly after the call came in around 5:30 p.m. on Monday and needed until almost midnight to extinguish the blaze.
�It was a very old, old home, probably in the 80-year-old range,� said Mack. �An old house with sawdust in the walls for insulation and that kind of thing, so there was a huge fire load.�
Staff Sgt. Steve LeClair of the Whistler RCMP said that an examination of the scene indicated a wood-burning stove as the source of the fire.
The event being planned for Jan. 12 has come together quickly, as Papa Josh offered his show already scheduled for that day as a way of helping Antonelli. The local musician said he was once neighbours with Antonelli and felt compelled to help out an individual who was very kind to him when he lived in the Meadows.
�He�s a really awesome guy,� he said. �It�s really a sad story.�
Donations are being accepted on Antonelli�s behalf in advance of the Jan. 12 event. Contact Tyranne Yorke on Facebook or at 604-902-7200 for more information.

Recipe by JENNEVANS313
"Homestyle green beans like grandma used to make. Right out of a can, fool anyone even grandma."
Watch video tips and tricks
3 slices bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 (15 ounce) can green beans, with liquid
1 cube chicken bouillon
FAB! I have made green beans like the this forever. The only thing I do differently is I rinse my beans a couple of times and it helps get the taste of the can away from them..They are really, really good.
Used fresh haricots verts rather than canned green beans and shallot rather than onion. Boiled the haricots verts about 5 minutes, then immediately transferred them to an ice bath. Meantime, I sauteed the bacon, shallots and some minced garlic, then added the haricots verts just long enough to heat them through. Didn't use the bouillon.
140 Ratings
This is my recipe so of course I am going to give it a 5. I have noticed some people saying that it was to salty. If you are going to cook the beans for more than 20 minutes try using salt free green beans or add water throughout the cooking process. These are "easy" homestlye green beans. The recipe I submitted was for a great side in little time. You can cook them for hours you will just need more beans, water, boullion and be sure to taste them throughout the cooking process.
I grew up with snapping beans and all....I use the crockpot....and simmer all day....I also add potatoes to the ingredients....lots of onions and bacon..brings back memories of the farm...:)
I substituted chopped ham for the bacon. I let the ham, and onions simmer a while in the liquid from the beans with the bouillion. When the onions were cooked then I added the green beans.
Always rinse your cans of green beans! It takes out the can-y taste.
These were very quick and easy to make and tasted great! I used fresh beans instead of canned.
These are good. I doctor these up with a touch of bacon fat, salt, pepper and garlic and/or garlic powder. Let simmer a good while for best taste.

Brief Summary | To determine the response to treatment with NVP, ZDV and 3TC in HIV positive women, who previously received NVP for the prevention of mother to child transmission. |
Detailed Description | An open-label, single arm, multicentre study to determine the virologic and immunologic responsiveness of women, who previously received a regimen of nevirapine for the prevention of MTCT, to a regimen of nevirapine and ZDV+3TC treatment. As well as to evaluate the proportion of patients who fail this treatment at 24 and 48 weeks, and to evaluate the resistance profile of HIV isolates from patients who fail nevirapine and ZDV+3TC treatment. Study Hypothesis: When a drug leading to selection of a resistant viral population is withdrawn the original wildtype virus, over time, becomes the predominant virus again. However, low frequency (below level of detection) of drug resistant viral sub-populations may be retained which could mean that the drug resistant variant might reappear rapidly should the same drug be reintroduced as part of combination therapy at a later stage.Therefore this study is proposed to evaluate whether there is an impact of single dose nevirapine for the prevention of MTCT on the subsequent response to a standard HAART regimen that contains nevirapine.

Android rules U.S. and Europe smartphone sales
New data by Kantar shows that Android has at least half of all smartphone sales in the U.S., Australia, and five major markets in Europe.
For the first time ever, Android has dominated smartphone sales in several major markets, including the U.S., Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain, and Australia, according to data released today by market analysis firm Kantar Worldpanel ComTech.
In all of these countries, Google's mobile OS has taken at least half of smartphone sales, with the lowest being in Italy at 49.6 percent and highest in Spain with 84.1 percent. The data is from sales recorded over the last 12 weeks ending on June 10.
"We are seeing much of the Android sales growth being driven by consumers trading up from feature phones to smartphones," ComTech's consumer insight director Dominic Sunnebo said in a statement. "Android handsets currently offer an easier platform to enable these consumers to upgrade, as many first time smartphone consumers state 'price of handset' and 'multimedia capabilities' as their main reason for choosing an Android device."
ComTech's data shows that people who want to spend under $80 on a mobile device tend to go with Android. As far as smartphones go, the Samsung Galaxy Ace and Y are selling well, according to ComTech.
"Smartphone consumers are much more loyal to their brand of handset and carrier than feature phone consumers, highlighting the importance of capturing feature phone owners when they are starting to look to change their handset," Sunnebo said.
Related stories
Not surprisingly, RIM lost market shares across the board; and Symbian fared almost as dismally with just a 0.3 percent rise in the U.S. and decreases in every other country, including a 38.6 percent fall in Spain.
Android's domination in the mobile world seems to be an ongoing trend. In May, ComTech showed similar results with strong market share gains for Google's mobile OS.
Here is ComTech's newest data:

Household Leveraging and Deleveraging |
March 2013 Number 602 |
JEL classification: E21, E32 |
Authors: Alejandro Justiniano, Giorgio Primiceri, and Andrea Tambalotti U.S. households' debt skyrocketed between 2000 and 2007, but has since been falling. This leveraging and deleveraging cycle cannot be accounted for by the liberalization and subsequent tightening of mortgage credit standards that occurred during the period. We base this conclusion on a quantitative dynamic general equilibrium model calibrated using macroeconomic aggregates and microeconomic data from the Survey of Consumer Finances. From the perspective of the model, the credit cycle is more likely due to factors that impacted house prices more directly, thus affecting the availability of credit through a collateral channel. In either case, the macroeconomic consequences of leveraging and deleveraging are relatively minor because the responses of borrowers and lenders roughly wash out in the aggregate.

So far, spring has come in like a lion. As the 2006 severe weather season heats up, don't forget that thunderstorms and tornadoes are best left alone.
On May 5, 2003, the pilot of a Piper Cherokee Six and his passenger were killed when they hit Horn Mountain near Calhoun, Georgia, at about 1:30 p.m. CDT. The flight departed Jacksboro, Tennessee, at 11:20 a.m., and was destined for Geneva, Alabama. The pilot called flight service the morning of the accident and received a weather briefing for a flight from Geneva to Jacksboro and back. He also filed two instrument flight plans--one for each leg.
At 4 p.m. the pilot contacted Nashville flight service and stated that he had a flight plan on file from Jacksboro to Geneva, and asked about picking up his instrument clearance en route over Rome, Georgia. The pilot was advised many times about the adverse weather along his route, including instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) between Jacksboro and Rome, as well as active tornado watches in the area. The pilot reiterated that he would be departing shortly after the phone call to flight service ended. The instrument flight plan was never activated.
A search was initiated after the flight failed to arrive in Geneva, but was postponed because of inclement weather. The search resumed on May 8 and the wreckage was located that day.
Weather conditions on the day of the accident in nearby Dalton, Georgia, were recorded as 1,000 feet broken, 1,900 feet broken, 2,600 feet overcast with one and three-quarter miles visibility. The pilot held a commercial pilot certificate for both single-engine and multiengine land airplanes and an instrument rating. He had nearly 3,000 hours of experience with 290 hours of actual instrument time.
The NTSB determined the cause of the accident was the pilot's failure to obtain an updated preflight weather briefing, which would have indicated that marginal VFR to IFR conditions prevailed over the route with embedded thunderstorms and rain, as well as his decision to continue VFR flight into IMC.
Accidents like this one are preventable. The pilot was told of the horrible weather along his route, but chose to depart anyway. For more information about how to avoid an in-flight encounter with a thunderstorm, take the AOPA Air Safety Foundation's newest free online course, Weather Wise: Thunderstorms and ATC. Also visit the foundation's Web site for a complete listing of Air Safety Foundation training resources related to weather.
Accident reports can be found in ASF's accident database.
