I had a great first half of my day yesterday. I was riding on the "high" of doing so well the day before when faced with temptations. By noon, though, I felt my attitude shifting into "I don't care" territory. By 3 p.m. I was in full "This day can SUCK it" swing. I even sent my DH an email saying just that. When he called, I said I couldn't pin my finger on why I was feeling this way, I just was. Was it medication? Was it the bipolar disorder? Was it just PMS? Or was it just that I was feeling a bit let down about my birthday because, though there was a fabulous outpouring of love online, in real life there really wasn't much of a recognition. No one on DH's side of the family (his brothers and dad, grandma) called. My mom handed me a $20. No card. Completely not like her. My dad later hinted that it was because they were broke. This hurt, because 1) I don't want money, especially if they're broke....I just want the hugs, and to see them. And a card. Call me a hoarder, but I love cards, and I keep every card I get, from birthdays, to Christmas, to special events like our marriage, anniversaries. And everyone knows this, but I got ONE card for my birthday, from my DH. 2) I know they're broke because they're gambling.
I didn't feel any of this on my birthday, it was only yesterday that I was feeling this. I know some of this is irrational, that it sounds pathetically selfish and ungrateful, but I need to own up to how I feel, no matter how bad it makes me look as a person.
Okay, moving on from that. I didn't go to Weight Watchers because during the afternoon we had a snowfall, followed by a warming up, followed by a freeze, so the roads were HORRIBLE. There were SO many accidents yesterday (well, also because people in ND/MN forget how to drive on ice/snow and don't slow down). I didn't want to risk an accident driving during rush hour on black ice slicked roads. Instead, DH made a frozen pizza for dinner. I had my 330-calorie serving, but I also was making the pork sirloin that was in the fridge and had to be cooked, along with mashed potatoes with the intention of putting it all in the fridge for dinner today (Wednesday). Instead, while I did put 75% of it in the fridge, I had a bit of it...which at this time was fine as I had the calories available.
So, I then went to the jewelry/bag party at a friend's house later in the evening. I took Kaylee with me as a way to get out right away (I know, passive-aggressive). Okay, turns out it was a bad idea all around. First, she made friends with my friend's 6-year-old daughter right away, and they went downstairs to play. I was worried about that because there were a lot of stairs to get down, and no one watching really (well, the husbands, but they were watching TV. I didn't have a lot of faith in them....). Kaylee isn't great on stairs yet, she can go up and down, but she goes too fast and falls.
Okay, one of the biggest reasons for me wanting to skip out quick is because I knew I wouldn't know anyone but for my friend except for her other friend, who is NOT my friend. She is a person who one day deleted me off her FB and gave me the cold shoulder. I have heard she has done this to a few other people who have made her s&*t list, but I don't know why I made that last, and that bugs me. I know not everyone likes me, but I don't recall anything I did or said to piss her off.
So, I tried to avoid her, but about an hour into the party, when people were visiting, she comes up to me and in her loud, brash voice in front of everyone in the big room, she said, "So, how'd you lose all the weight? Must have been pills, right?"
I said...trying to be calm because she said this in a very b*tchy voice so I know she wasn't being jokey about it...I said "No....I did it with watching what I eat and exercise. Yeah, I know...boring."
Then she said "No, you lost too much weight for it to be just that." And then she walked away.
There was an awkward silence in the room, and not one person commented because, of course, they didn't know who the h*ll I am so of course they do NOT know how I really lost the weight.
And our mutual friend said nothing.
I walked back to where I was ordering, finished up the order, and went to get my little girl to leave. But she didn't want to leave. She was in a room where there were TONS of toys and she was content to just stay. Any motion I made to leave, she threatened an ear-busting tantrum. I didn't have the stomach to bring a screaming child through that room filled with women who probably already think now that I am a pill-popping addict, and have them think now I am a bad mommy taking my little girl away from having fun....
So I went back up, and ended up eating some of the desserts that my friend had out that her mom had made. I don't know the names of the bars, but we will call them Fat on my Rump, Calorie Buster, and Gooey Mess of Emotions. They were small, but I had 4 of them.
Finally, I get Kaylee to get going as it really is getting close to her bedtime, and again I just wanted to go home. I had been watching the snotty ex-friend in the corner whispering to another person and sneaking looks at me. Sure, I could be just paranoid, but after the confrontation I just couldn't do anything but ignore, and feel horrible.
Someone was behind me in the driveway so they went out to get their car out of the way. I then started backing out (Kaylee by the way is screaming her head off because a) she is super tired and b) she seriously didn't want to leave). I then hear a crunch that was more than just snow.
I also saw that the person who moved their car had this look to their face
Turns out their driveway curves and I didn't realize it, and backed up over what I can only describe as plastic covering a bunch of electrical stuff. Yeah, it all cracked like an egg. Great.
So, I had her get my friend so I could let her know that yes, I suck once again. I told her if it cost anything out of their pocket to fix, to let me know and I would pay them back. I felt TERRIBLE.
I finally got back home, got Kaylee to bed, and just couldn't go to bed. I was too wound up. I made a bowl of ice cream (small bowl, but still), and a few small baking chocolates (like Hershey's kisses, but for baking). I put on Grey's Anatomy and lost myself in the show.
My DH came home and I vented, but of course all he focused on was the fact that I had backed up on that electrical stuff and gee, didn't I know that the driveway curved????
I went to bed at 11 p.m. thinking that going to the gym early in the morning wasn't going to happen, and I would make it my cardio rest day, no biggie.
Except my little girl got up at 5:45. And so I learned a lesson. Go to the gym. You won't get much more sleep if you stay home.
I am trying to shift my mood/attitude back over to positivity and that is why I am purging all of this crap into this blog. I need to let the bad energy/negativity out, and let the good energy/positive energy in.
Plan of Action for Today:
Nutrition: No ice cream. Stay in my ranges. Don't focus on food so much today.
Fitness: I plan to do some ST this evening.
Water/Fiber: The usual 80+ ounces plus I need to up my fiber more.
I need to read my 31 things I have learned blog. To remind myself that ONE day of crappy crap doesn't derail my journey.
P.S. I overheard that snarky ex-friend talking to the other people there about the wonderful diet she is on where she drinks a shake for breakfast and lunch, a bunch of fruits and veggies otherwise and how she has lost tons of weight. I am happy for her, but I just wish she hadn't attacked me the way she did before touting her own "diet."
Wow, this blog is seriously long. For anyone who read it, I thank you. I just felt I had to document everything so I could look back on this day and know that I overcame it.
I am a bit bummed as I typed out a blog yesterday that I was planning to post this morning, but then my computer shut down for updates and I lost it :o{ I spent half an hour typing that thing!!!!!!!
Basically, I had a fantastic birthday. I had to work 8-5. I ate light throughout the day so though I wasn't starving, I had plenty of wiggle room for the evening. I stayed busy throughout the day also, with of course working, but also cleaning the house (which was a mess given I was sick all weeend). I did 3 loads of laundry, and raked the lawn since it is supposed to snow today.
I walked the dog in the morning, and also walked the dog with DH before going out for dinner.
Dinner was at a favorite Mexican restaurant that gives you a free dinner for your birthday.
*okay, seriously Kaylee, do you NEED to sit on my shoulder while I'm trying to type?*
Ummm...Okay, so I had a fajita burrito (yum!!!) and the free chips and salsa. I had almost half of the burrito (DH ate the other half), and the chips I limited to a little over a handful. I had plenty of salsa though!
After that, we went home to watch an episode of Modern Family while we split a Cake for Two Oreo chocolate cake. I split mine in another half to set aside for Kaylee later. I also had 1/2 cup of low-fat French silk ice cream *super yum!*
Then, we went to go to my parents house to visit as they were watching Kaylee. When I walked in the door, I felt a bubble of laughter building up as the first thing I saw were a dozen freshly made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing. Turns out my little girl already had 3 (sugar high much?). I brought one home with her (to be thrown out once we got home. None of us needed that cupcake). I also tossed the last bit of cake that I had saved for Kaylee. I just didn't need that temptation.
The thing is? I didn't have a second's thought about actually eating those cupcakes at my mom's. To give her some credit, she didn't try to get me to eat them myself or send extras home for me or Corey. That's a step in the right direction!
So, my recap for yesterday, which I definitely feel was a success:
Nutrition: Approximately 1700-1800 calories, as it was hard to fully calculate Paradiso (they don't have nutrition values for their menu). Super happy about this!!!
Fitness: I walked twice (for 2 miles), and did a 55 minute spin class in the morning. Also lots of yard work and housework!
Water/Fiber: Done and Done!!!
Plan of Action for Today:
Nutrition: 1200-1550 calories, preferably on the lower end to counteract yesterday's going over a bit.
Fitness: Run for 3 miles, walk for 2 miles.
Water/Fiber: 80+ ounces of water plus 3 servings of Benefiber.
Other: Weigh-in at Weight Watchers for accountability. Jewelry party tonight, but planning to bring Kaylee, order quickly, and do NOT eat the desserts she has there.
My Weekly Weigh-In: Last week I was 173.4 pounds and today I weighed in at 172.2, with a loss of -1.2. I was down more yesterday, but I am super happy with this result. :o}
Miles: 91/250
Push-Ups: 45/100
Yay!!! I started feeling better yesterday afternoon, and I woke up seriously refreshed this morning, enough so that I hit the gym and put 24 miles in at spinning and feel awesome!!
I did still treat yesterday like a super rest day. I did some walking but that was about it. I did also turn around a temptation to eat a quickie dinner at McDonald's. I had it planned I would only have a hamburger and a small fry, but it didn't sit well knowing I would be eating out today for my birthday (at a local Mexican restaurant). So, instead we went through the drive-thru for DH and DD while I went ahead and made my pork stir-fry I had been planning to make and had that. I had a bit too much sodium yesterday and not enough water, so I am feeling a bit bloated this morning. I am hoping to be under 170 when I weigh in so I can get my reward of a book, but I am okay if I'm not. It will happen!!
So, for a recap:
Nutrition: In my ranges. I was MUCH hungrier than I have been the couple of days before, and I did end up eating ice cream as a snack last night.
Fitness: Just walking like planned.
Water: Not NEARLY enough. I have my bottles set aside for today so I will be sure to get my water in today.
Plan Of Action for Today:
Nutrition: Since I am eating at a Mexican restaurant, my plan of action is to eat mostly fruits and veggies for my snacks and meals today. My dinner will be moderate; I plan to put half in a to-go box right away, and I will eat chips and sauce, but only so many (not letting them refill the chips). My cake is an Oreo cake that is actually a slice (cake for two from SuperTarget) and my DH and I are going to split it.
Fitness: 1 hour of spinning (already done) and 2 walks with the dog today. ST (mostly already done).
Water/Fiber: Benefiber plus 80 ounces of water (at least!!!).
Miles 86/250
Push-Ups: 35/100
Since I turn 31 today, I figured I should write up a blog that doesn't have a thing to do with Plan Of Action :o} Instead, this will be the 31 things I have learned on my journey:
1. This journey has been all about decisions/choices, and that I alone can make those choices.
2. One bad choice does not make for a bad result if I make more good choices than bad.
3. I can do anything I want to do, if I want it bad enough.
4. Red Lobster doesn't taste so good, if I have been eating healthier for a long time.
5. The more weight I lose, or the more muscle I put on my body and the more fat I lose, the more I love clothes, make-up, and just being girly-girly in general.
6. I appreciate the good things in life so much more now, i.e. family, friends, experiences, the clothes on my back, the food in my fridge.
7. I can run!!!!
8. I learned the more you surround yourself with inspirational people, friends, quotes, etc....the more motivated you are and less likely to make not so healthy choices.
9. I love taking my dog on walks now!
10. In fact, I love doing anything active now instead of sitting on my butt watching TV.
11. I am not perfect. Nor do I want to be.
12. I am actually sexy, in a geeky kind of way ;o}
13. Good, healthy, nutritious food can actually taste....good!
14. Blizzards are the devil.
15. There are no limits to my goals.
16. I am a super mom, but even super moms need days to unwind or take a mental health day.
17. That I am a bipolar, OCD, binge eating freak...but a lovable one at that.
18. That I have the best support system in my house!!!
19. I married the best guy in the world...for me.
20. I am loved, by so many friends and family, and I don't take that for granted anymore.
21. There is more to life than a number on the scale (still a learning in process, but I am almost there).
22. That I am an inspiration to some people, though that is something I don't think I'll ever be able to wrap my head around!
23. That I can never truly fail, as long as I keep trying.
24. I can conquer anything in life that hits me, bad or good, because I know how to deal with things now, instead of eating my eay through it.
25. I can eat what I want, as long as it is planned, I portion control it, and I exercise to offset the calories.
26. True friends are priceless.
27. I am powerful.
28. I am beautiful, inside and out.
29. I finally started to love myself AND like myself, instead of hating myself for what I do.
30. I am fun to be around, most of the time.
31. I am worth it.
Wow, yesterday was sure a day of ups and downs. I'd feel better for a bit, but then get dizzy and nauseous for a while after that. I definitely felt worse, though, as the day went on. It was a pretty restful day, and I took a shower and put make-up on to feel better, which worked for a bit. My eating was bleh....I think I ended up eating about 1000 calories, and thankfully I only vomited once, so I was able to keep most of those calories down. It was the fever and lack of energy that was hardest. Well, and the nausea whenever I ate or drank anything.
For a recap:
Nutrition: Not that great because I was under on calories.
Fitness: Yeah, it was a rest day.
Water: Definitely could have been better. I just felt so icky with every drink of water, that it was hard to drink it.
I woke up today not feeling much better and still with a fever of about 100.5 degrees (not too bad), so it's going to be another day of rest I believe.
My Plan of Action today:
Nutrition: Try to get in at least 1200 calories. Whatever I can keep down and not have me feeling like crap.
Fitness: Maybe a walk or two to get some fresh air, but that will be it, especially with my dizziness.
Water: I will definitely try to get at least 60 ounces of water/liquids in.
I really need to be feeling better tomorrow. It would REALLY suck to be sick on my birthday.

120419 Today in Khuntoria History - Baseball Hoodie Kiss!
It is officially April 19th in Korea, which means that exactly a year ago (04/19/11) was Khuntoria's now infamous "hoodie kiss". I will never forget the sheer excitement and spazz-tastic atmosphere of not only Khuntorians and Korean baseball fans but pretty much everyone who heard about it. From the fancams to fanaccounts to photos and news articles it was such a "doong doong" worthy day. One of the best days to have been a Khuntoria fan. It marked their first public appearance together (as a couple) as well as their first kiss
attempt. Also, because of lucky charms Vic "the pictcher" and Khun "the batter", the Doosan Bears won the game! If I could rewind the time, I would!
Enjoy reliving Khuntoria's Hoodie Kiss!

Let's not forget the cost. Nothing, absolutely nothing is reasonably priced as we know it. There's no point in trying to cut costs here and there; everything is expensive.
Ok, back to the tour.
Sea fortress island and Finnish ruoka
This morning, I woke up to the sounds of jackhammers outside the hostel window, which is always fun when you're a bit hung over. Ah well, nothing some coffee couldn't fix. We went to the deli around the corner for some brunch, and I had what they referred to as a salmon bagel, which was actually smoked salmon with tomatoes and cream cheese on a black bread type baguette. Pretty close to a Montreal breakfast, actually, except for the bagel part.
Finland and Estonia!
... I jumped the railing and got out of there. It's pretty scary feeling trapped on this slow, conveyor belt heading toward unavoidable danger because you can't go back with so many people crammed on the belt, blocking the way. I don't think anyone got seriously hurt but I saw a few women with pretty scraped up legs.
Today was pretty leisurely. I slept in and went back to the waterfront market with Chloe this time. Every day brings different vendors so ...
It's great to see you, Helsinki
... I fell in at the restaurant though - I ordered an "express" breakfast, thinking it meant fast, but it mean "everything", so ended up with another huge breakfast.
After the depressing colours of St Petersburg, it was fantastic to go ashore at Helsinki. Even before we went ashore, we could tell it was going to be so much nicer (average life expenctancy for a ...
Start of the long haul
Up early this morning & the guys at the hotel were great. They were up for breakfast & coffee & so we could pay the bill. The shuttle turned up on time & had us to the airport as requested. Went through all the customs & check ins. The bags were slightly over weight 24kgs. But they were booked through to Australia. Then ...

John Milton :
Hail wedded love, mysterious law, true source Of human offspring, sole propriety, In paradise of all things common else. By thee adulterous lust was driven from men Among the bestial herds to range, by thee Founded in reason, loyal, just, and pure, Relations dear, and all the charities Of father, son, and brother first were known. Far be it, that I should write thee sin or blame, Of think thee unbefitting holiest place, Perpetual fountain of domestic sweets, Whose bed is undefiled and chaste pronounced, Present, or past, as saints and patriarchs used. Here love his golden shafts employs, here lights His constant lamp, and waves his purple wings, Reigns here and revels; not in the bought smile Of harlots, loveless, joyless, unendeared, Casual fruition, nor in court amours Mixed dance, or wanton mask, or midnight ball, Or serenade, which the starved lover sings To his proud fair, best quitted with disdain. These lulled by Nightingales embracing slept, And on their naked limbs the flowery roof Showered roses, which the morn repaired.

Senate GOP leader calls NSA programs legal
Tuesday - 6/11/2013, 3:49pm EDT
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Senate Republican leader says the National Security Agency programs are legal and subject to rigorous oversight as he questioned the motivation of the private contractor who leaked information about the surveillance operations.
Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky told reporters on Tuesday that Edward Snowden, who disclosed details about two programs, should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
McConnell said the Director of National Intelligence declassified some details of the programs that shows they were authorized by law, overseen by Congress and the courts and subject to review.
The lawmaker said that given the scope of the programs, the privacy concerns were understandable. He said it was difficult to understand Snowden's motivation to warn the enemy about the programs.

Integration Week!!
Monday the 1st was the first day of integration week!! Yayy!! I remember getting up early today because we had to get to ICN for 10:30am.

This afternoon we had a "conference" on London. We learned some history (basically they had a lot of fires), landmarks, and fun facts about the city! Did you know its one of the top ten most expensive cities to live in, and you have to pay extra to drive in the city center. The conference caused me to add London to my bucket list, that's for sure!

Growing Up Evangelical: My Story of Making Peace With Evolution
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
The 1930 showdown between evolutionist Schmucker and creationist Rimmer generated a lot of heat but shed very little light on the real issues behind the debate.
Recent high-school graduate Jacob shares about his journey from young-earth creationism to evolutionary creationism, and how his faith was challenged and strengthened along the way.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Read about the death of Wolfhart Pannenberg, still debating creation and evolution, and a really big dinosaur discovery.
This week's news features volcanoes, skeletons, and stars, as well as a thought-provoking new book from InterVarsity press.
While it is true that Goodwin and others believe that their discoveries pose a major challenge to neo-Darwinian orthodoxy, this does not cause them to abandon their belief that the history of life can be explained as the outcome of biological processes!
From science and religion blogs: quantum uncertainty and God, the remarkable fact that we have come to understand our place in the created order, and the role of theology in making wise choices about the use of technology.
Everyone is so worried about success and getting this or that honorable diploma—the people here are smart and understand many complex things perfectly—but it's a long distance from the head to the heart.
The new Gallup survey shows in broad strokes the challenge we face. But more nuanced surveys find that only 8% of Americans are convinced creationists whose beliefs are dear to them, and only 4% are convinced atheistic evolutionists whose beliefs are dear to them. The vast majority of Americans are not sure of their position and are open to a conversation.
Geologist Keith Miller examines the "Cambrian Explosion", a period of rapid evolutionary diversification approximately 575 million years ago, and whether it poses a challenge to evolutionary theory. From the June 2014 issue of Perspectives on Science and Christian Faith from the American Scientific Affiliation.
Because BioLogos accepts the scientific evidence for the age of the earth and common ancestry, Ham believes we are undermining the Bible and denying its authority. However, the authority of the Bible is key for all that we do at BioLogos.
All of you who do science, all of you who teach or research or you're involved in engineering or medicine or education, or biology or chemistry or physics—you are doing a noble thing. You are thinking God's thoughts after him. … You are obeying God's command given way back in Genesis to exercise dominion, to learn about, to be curious and discover and steward the earth.
The Psalmist is saying that when we walk outside and look up, the heavens are telling us two things about God: they tell us about his glory, and they tell us about what his hands can do.
Watch to see whether the debate encourages the opinion that science and Christianity are at war. We don't think you have to choose sides.
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
Last week Ken Ham addressed BioLogos specifically in a blog post, in response to Daniel Hamlin's testimony told in our blog on October 14th.
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
In this series, Kathryn Applegate addresses the concern that randomness implies the absence of God's activity and involvement in the natural world. She begins by clearing up some common misconceptions about the concept of "randomness", and later focuses on the mechanisms of the immune system to demonstrate that God works through random processes to preserve life. Far from being an indication of a "godless" universe, one might conclude that randomness is one of God's favorite mechanisms for creating and sustaining life!

MINI Launches the Cooper SD in Europe and the UK
A few days ago we told you about MINI USA's plans to release a Clubman diesel in late 2016/early 2017. Today we get an early peak at what will likely be a variation of the engine used. The Cooper SD is the fastest and most powerful diesel ever offered in a MINI. With 170hp and a healthy 266 ft lbs of torque, the new 2.0L diesel should sprint to 60 mph in under seven seconds while returning 59 MPG US (4.0 to 4.1 litres per 100 kilometers). Will we see that kind of efficiency with the Clubman? It's much too early to tell but we'd expect MINI to aim for something over 50 MPG.
Read on for the full details on the new Cooper SD and the MINI One First that was also launched today.
Official Release: The new MINI remains on course for growth. After its successful market launch, the engine range for the new original in the small car premium segment continues to expand as of July 2014. In future, the selection will include the new MINI Cooper SD as the most powerful diesel variant and the new entry-level petrol engine model MINI One First. Both newcomers offer an impressively favourable balance between driving fun and fuel consumption. In total there are now seven power units available for the model produced at the British MINI plant in Oxford, including four petrol and three diesel engines – all of which were completely newly developed.
The new engine generation with three or four cylinders and MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology creates the basis for a clear boost in terms of both agility and efficiency in the new version of the MINI. This is also demonstrated in the latest additions to the model program. The engine in the new MINI Cooper SD is the most powerful diesel ever in a vehicle of the MINI brand. The 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine generates a peak output of 125 kW/170 hp, putting its maximum torque of 360 Newton metres on stream at 1 500 rpm. Its MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology has a turbocharging system with variable turbine geometry and common rail injection with magnet valve injectors operating at a maximum pressure of 2 000 bar. This combination enables both highly spontaneous power delivery as well as a precisely controlled fuel supply.
Thanks to the pulling power of the new diesel engine, the MINI Cooper SD completes the sprint from zero to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds. The optionally available 6-speed Steptronic transmission enables an acceleration figure of 7.2 seconds. This sporty temperament is combined with an average fuel consumption of 4.0 to 4.1 litres per 100 kilometres in each case, with CO2 emissions of 106 to 110 grams per kilometre (automatic: 104 to 108 g/km, EU test cycle figures, dependent on tyre format selected).
In the new MINI One First, too, cutting-edge engine technology ensures hallmark brand driving fun is combined with exemplary efficiency. The MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology in its 3-cylinder petrol engine comprises turbocharging, petrol direct injection and variable camshaft control on the intake and exhaust side (double VANOS). In this way, an output of 55 kW/75 hp is mobilised from a capacity of 1.2 litres. The entry-level variant among the petrol engines also offers spontaneous power delivery, with a maximum torque of 150 Newton metres going on stream at 1 400 rpm. The new MINI One First reaches the 100 km/h mark from standing in 12.8 seconds. Its average fuel consumption is 5.0 to 5.2 litres per 100 kilometres, while the relevant CO2 emissions rating is between 117 and 122 grams per kilometre (figures based on EU test cycle, dependent on selected tyre format).

Cornerback suffered mild hamstring injury on Sunday, will be game-time decision. Terry McCormick
Houston Texans cornerback Jonathan Joseph will be a game-time decision for the Thanksgiving Day game against the Detroit Lions.
Joseph suffered a mild hamstring strain in Sunday's overtime win against Jacksonville, and might miss the game on a short week, one in which the Texans will have to contend with Detroit's Calvin Johnson.
"He's got a strain, but it's a slight strain," coach Gary Kubiak told the Houston Chronicle on Tuesday. "It's just how he reacts to it. He's feeling pretty good today. We'll see where he's at tomorrow."

Breaking Local News
Lester enters plea on drug charges
Shawn Lester was back in court Thursday. He's been convicted in one of the three sniper-style shootings in the Kanawha Valley and faced unrelated federal drug charges yesterday. Lester is accused of distributing oxycodone and cocaine between 2005 and 2011 near Sissonville. Lester was indicted on the charges in July and pleaded not guilty yesterday. If he's convicted, Lester faces up to 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine. In a plea deal, Lester pleaded guilty to the murder of Jeannie Patton, who was one of three people shot to death at a Kanawha County gas station in 2003. Murder charges in the deaths of Gary Carrier Jr. and Okey Meadows Jr. were dropped as part of the deal.
Fouty is removed from the ballot
Former Kanawha County magistrate Carol Fouty is officially off the ballot. The State Judicial Investigation Commission charged Fouty in April with five counts of violating the ethics code for alleged conflicts of interest and for granting favors. Under a tentative settlement Fouty pleaded guilty to one of the counts, resigned immediately and promised to remove herself from November's election. The state Election Commission removed Fouty this week. The Kanawha County Republican Party has less than a week to name a replacement.
Layoffs loom for company affected by poor housing market
Layoffs are coming to South Charleston. Company officials with the Clearon plant will temporarily shut down in mid-September and lay off between 45 and 50 workers. The temporary closure is expected to last between two and two-and-a-half months, and is necessary because of the market conditions, according to the company. The company makes chlorinated dry bleach like those used in the swimming pool industry, and a poor housing market affects the swimming pool market. There are also issues with markets overseas. Whether the plant reopens, will depend on market conditions.
Grant money available for broadband service
An effort is underway to spread broadband internet service to rural areas, and the West Virginia Broadband Deployment Council has started accepting applications for $4 million in grant funding to put toward the effort. The money will go to groups that provide broadband coverage to rural towns, or groups that sponsor initiatives to encourage people to sign up for high-speed Internet. Applications for the grant funds are due September 14.
Kanawha County employees get raise
Kanawha County employees are getting their first pay raise in six years. Although there have been a few raises here and there, County Commissioners approved the raises across the board last night. Each employee gets a $1000 raise effective September 1, which costs the county half a million dollars.
Chic-Colbert learns his sentence
A jury lsat month found Ethan Chic-Colbert guilty of child neglect and domestic batter after an attack on his girlfriend sent her 11-year old son out to look for help. Jahlil Clements was killed when he was struck by a vehicle trying to flag down help on the interstate. Chic-Colbert will spend between six and 30 years behind bars for the charges. He will then be on supervised release for 25 years.
St. Albans mayor adds new duty
The mayor of St. Albans, Dick Callaway, has been picked to be the president of the West Virginia Municipal League. Callaway was vice president of the league for the 2011-2012 year, and will serve as president into 2013. The Municipal League connects several towns as a statewide, nonpartisan association of cities, towns and villages. Through the legislature, research, and education, the league works for the best interest of the members. There are 232 of them in West Virginia right now.
WV quarterback makes SI cover
Football season is almost here, and West Virginia Mountaineer quarterback Geno Smith has landed on the cover of Sports Illustrated. The magazine is doing five regional covers, and Smith is featured in this region. Others are Alabama's A.J. McCarron, University of Southern California's Matt Barkley, Michigan's Denard Robinson and Oklahoma's Landry Jones. The issue is out this week.
Wayne Co. Mayor steps down
A mayor has stepped down before his term expires. Wayne County Mayor Dwayne Stiltner stepped down this week due to family reasons. The letter of resignation has already been submitted, and the city council will meet tomorrow (Friday) to nominate someone to take over for the rest of the term. Stiltner's term expires in June 2013. Stiltner's 17-year-old daughter, Kristen Stiltner, was killed in a traffic accident in late May and te has been on a leave of absence since then.
I-79 paving resumes
Work was stopped briefly on a 4 1/2-mile section of Interstate 79 between Elkview and Clendenin, but it was scheduled to resume this week. Workers had to backtrack and make a warranty fix once after a bad patch of asphalt left the pavement sloughing off in three places on Interstate 79 two miles south of the Clendenin exit. The latest fix had to be made when asphalt began separating from the roadway in another place the northbound lanes. It's a $10.5 million repaving project that began in May, and the contractor has until the end of October to finish the job of repaving all four lanes.

They accept women's (including plus size), maternity, juniors, and kids pieces as well as shoes and handbags that are all in like-new condition. Just request a bag, fill it up and send it in for FREE, and get paid!
2.) Twice - Like ThredUp, Twice also lets you send in your clothes for FREE and pays you and then resells the items on their site. Make sure to check their accepted brands list as they only accept High-end brands like Anthropologie, J.Crew, Michael Kors, Ann Taylor, BCBG etc.
3.) Poshmark – Posh mark lets you list an item for sale in less than 60 seconds with the free iPhone, iPad, or Android app. For all sales under $15, Poshmark takes a flat commission of $2.95. You keep the rest. For all sales over $15, you keep 80% of your sale and Poshmark's commission is 20%. Once your sale has been delivered and received by your buyer, the earnings from your sale are yours. You can spend your earnings within the app or withdraw your money as cash whenever you like.

Stuttgart. The vehicles of the Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, continue to meet the highest quality standards in the USA, the largest export market for the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer. The US market research institute J.D. Power arrived at this conclusion in its latest survey, "Initial Quality Study," which was published yesterday. Porsche reached second place after Lexus, and is thereby also the best European manufacturer.
With the prestigious brand evaluation, Porsche has now reached a top position on four consecutive occasions; in the years 2006 to 2008, the Stuttgart manufacturer of sporty, premium vehicles has held first place. Frank Tuch, head of Company Quality at Porsche, said: "Three first and a second place in the brand evaluation of the noted J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, in the last four years, are the result of consistent quality work and customer focus during development, in production and in sales. The award demonstrates that our sustainability strategy has paid off. The challenge is not to achieve high-quality standards on short notice, but rather to sustain these over the course of years. There is hard work behind this. The high degree of satisfaction of the Porsche customers is a reflection of the new car quality."
J.D. Power reviewed the satisfaction of new car buyers, in the first
90 days after delivery of the vehicles. Based upon a catalog containing a total of 228 criteria, nearly 81,000 customers were asked about their impressions concerning quality and workmanship.
