Thought it'd be fun to post a guild group photo of us all for our Garrosh kill! Grats to everyone to got loot and heirlooms.
Garrosh Hellscream - July 1, 2014
A shot of us all on the throne.
The dead "body"... or what's left of it.
A bonus shot of the wipe we had just before the kill attempt. So graceful!
It has been a tough week for us all. We have lost a beloved member of our guild, but in his passing, we should remember even moreso to celebrate his wonderful life. We may have known Rikzo as the loveable and generous warlock of our guild and the undisputed king of farming, but he most definitely left a mark on all of us beyond just the game. We will all miss him dearly.
In addition to taking whatever actions we are capable in Rik's honor and sending our condolences to his family, we have created shirts available to anyone who wishes to purchase one in his memory. The design for this shirt is available through SpreadShirt. Attached below are the URLs to purchase one for those of us who expressed interest:
*Note: Unfortunately the website kept deleting the URL previously, and when I spoke with customer service they asked that I set up a "shop" instead. This means that you can no longer change the apparal type, although you should still be able to change the color and size. Sorry if you wanted the shirt in a different brand of tee. On the plus side, the cost is now reduced. Any proceeds from the store will be donated to the American Red Cross.
They are your standard 100% cotton t-shirt purchaseable in a large array of sizes. Shipping should be a flat fee of $4.50 to the United States and $5.50 to Canada.
BACK (Guild Emblem):
I have already purchased my shirt, and the process seems straightforward. Please contact me (Eclaire) in guild if you have any questions or need any help in ordering or changing the product.
Finally, there have also been discussion of setting up a online "scrapbook" of sorts with screenshots or any other memorable images we each would like to share and compile them somewhere on our guild website. We'll add more details about this project in this space as we discuss further what our final plan will be.
IMPORTANT:Members of the guild, if you have tried to register but your account was not approved, please try again now. We had to do a purge of many blocked registered accounts because of spam. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Hello Guildmates!
I have recently run comprehensive updates on our website to update modules and fix errors. There have been visual improvements made to forums and avatars, and improvements made to toon selection. Our armory and guild web modules should also now be connecting to the Battle.net armory correctly.
Some notes:
Please report any problems you see on the website, and submit comments and suggestions. Thanks as always!
Near the end of WOTLK, we proposed that we form a guild of previously existing allied guilds in an attempt to, as best we could, reproduce the atmosphere which existed at the end of WOTLK all wrapped under one guild name. Since Blizzard did not offer an option to create an alliance, we did our best to reproduce this type of entity under one guild name. This offered many benefits including expedited guild leveling via a larger pool of toons contributing to guild leveling. The guild as it stands now is very stable, there are many long time members (one ten man raid has existed nearly unchanged for over 3 years) but also there are several recent additions to the guild. We have a very flat guild corporate tree with Phere Raid Leading and Sudsig as GM. There are no other formal officers, this seems to be the most family like.
The name: 'Die with Music" Russian; It means go out with a bang, go down fighting, make sure your death has meaning.
We might be considered a "moderate raiding guild", more than casual, less than hard core, progression raiding with less attitude. Hardmode raiding is our goal. We expect people to be doing research on their toons, gearing properly, using current specs and up to date rotations.
Our raid schedule has been reduced a bit with the long expansion. We still offer fixed 10 man raid(s) (raid spots assigned to specific toons). We adjust the number of runs as needed. Our progress is listed above. We usually are in the top ten guilds on the SERVER for progression.
Quote from Afax summer 2012 "I have downed more boss in this guild than I did when in a hard-core raiding guild".

text: Libya was once a nation with a large and thriving Jewish community; today, only a tiny number of Jews remain there, and this documentary from filmmaker Vivienne Roumani-Denn (herself a Libyan Jew) explains the tragic legacy of the nation's Jewish community. While Jews were a part of Libya's culture since before the birth of Christ, events during the 20th Century were to decimate both the numbers and the spirit of the nation's Jews. During World War II, Italy took control of Libya, where Jews did not fare well under Mussolini's fascist regime. Britain wrested control of Libya from Italy, but the pogroms against the Jewish community only grew worse. Finally, Libya gained independence, but when the Arab states gained power and influence in the Middle East, most of Libya's remaining Jewish population fled, with only a small number of families remaining to uphold the nation's heritage. The Last Jews of Libya received its North American premiere at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

"Excellent dish! Our family frequently goes to El Pollo Inka for dinner. This item is on their menu. My husband and son really enjoyed this. I made enough for six people. Between the three of us, I only got to have one helping because the other two scarfed most of it down. I served this with Aquadito as a starter. Thanks so much for sharing ..."
"Fluffy, this was really good and super easy. I made this as directed the first time and everyone loved it. The second time, I added a can of mexicorn (corn and green chilis). That was really good too. This recipe is definitely a keeper. Thanks much for sharing."
"This was a nice, quick recipe to prepare for Christmas morning. We left out the bell pepper (not fans) and added a little minced garlic to the onion sauté. I also added a touch of dried basil and thyme to the eggs. My husband enjoyed it quite a bit. Another plus is that I only used two dishes to make it so I didn't have to wash a lot..."
"My husband LOVED this recipe. It's definately a do again. I admit I prefer poached eggs on my bennys but this is a VERY good alternative and quite easy to do. Next time I may experiment and try separating the eggs and adding the unbroken yolks on top in the last minute or so of cooking. Thanks so very much for sharing!"

"I liked this very much! My son was not excited but he's a greasy burgers and fries guy. I had leftovers and added a little Parmesan that topped it off nicely when I reheated it for lunch. Thanks for the nice recipe."
"I just made a single serving for myself using some leftover hash browns from breakfast yesterday. I used butter flavored cooking spray to cut down on the amount of butter and had to substitute sausage for the ham. It was fabulous! It's funny how half of it filled me up when I used the same amount of sausage, eggs, and hash browns that would be s..."
"The flavor was great but like others it was watery. I wonder if using 2% milk instead of whole milk or half and half makes a difference. I will try it again with a fattier milk and let you know."
"Excellent biscuit recipe. It was very easy to put together. After making them I threw the biscuits into the freezer for a few minutes while my oven was preheating. It helps them bake up nice and flaky. I reduced the sugar and milk just a bit per the recommendations of other reviewers but that was the only change I made. Thanks so much for sharing ..."

Brit Marling in Christopher Kane [Getty]
Two consecutive emails from fashion PRs to Grazia HQ have helped pique our already keen interest in an actress, producer and writer named Brit Marling. The first message came from Proenza Schouler, the second from Christopher Kane – two highly coveted, high fashion labels who don't just dress anyone, but a select few of the most stylish girls in town. This double whammy of designer elite have bedecked Brit in their latest spring/summer 2014 wares and we're now ready to see more – and thanks to this week's Sundance Film Festival in Utah, that may just happen.
In Proenza Schouler (left) and Mulberry (right) [Rex]
Miss Marling is currently on the circuit promoting, I Origins (a sci-fi drama flick starring alongside Prada fave, Michael Pitt) and also, The Better Angels (where she shares the silver screen with Diane Kruger in a tale of Abraham Lincoln's childhood).
Diane Kruger and Brit Marling are both on the promo trail for The Better Angels [Getty]
However, Brit doesn't just give good dress; she's a brainiac, too. After graduating in economics from Georgetown University Brit was offered a job at Goldman Sachs. She turned it down. What she didn't reject was Christopher Kane's soon-to-be mega floral sweatshirt: his twisted take on a biology lesson has been earmarked by many a fashion editor as one of the key pieces this season. She's the first lady we've spotted wearing one – this could only mean big things, right?
With three more films in the pipeline this year, there's more Marling to come and one place where you'll find it: here. Obvs.

The Constant Changes of Trend
It's a fashionista's worst experience, than appearing oversize buddy, more degrading than wearing exactly the same dress in a different bash, even worse — it's the fear of symbolizing looking yesteryear fashion style model.
Sometimes, trend trends is known as as fads, are erratic. The fashion industry players are always in the quest to bring up something "NEW" & "POPULAR".
What is Fashion Style?
Trend is the lead in which something new evolving, mainly leaning, line and penchant of growth. Hence, fashion craze is the fashion industry's latest evolvement.
What's Fashion Craze Actually Around?
The answer can be given by your cabinet. If you don't want to look at it, well.well. This resembles that your steps are being matched by you using the newest style styles. What it is relation to trend? People stick rigidly to the rules – okay, perhaps not 'YOU'. You may be one of these who walk their particular manner and dress as they like. A continuously changing world it when it comes to the fashion industry. Despite the fact that some trends are thought as ludicrous and aged, a great many other comebacks with progressive ideas.
Stride and Re-emergence of Latest Fashion Trends
Now its new millennium, but most of trend things like jelly bracelets the pegged pant legs, and finally the denim jeans, appear to be returning in trends again. It comes out that the hottest fashion trends are just have nothing new whatsoever. Fashion craze was re-emerged in by almost everything. It is possible to virtually find torn jeans .
Who decides What's 'Popular' and 'Not' in Trend Styles
There's no presence of special group who declares what is hot fashion trend or not. Actually, consumers and the fashion designers who buys-out the style merchandise make their judgment and throw several opinions out there and observe what exactly is grabbed.
Basically, 'WE', the consumer determine which merchandise is by making our minds what to buy and wear popular.
The Fashion Trend Cycle
First section of the cycle, where the craze is highly hunted instantly after seeing that great fashionable hat, clothing or shoe to music video, red carpet or the runway. Next, comes the emulation phase, where everyone needs a piece of the trend. Only fashion industry players and big shots, stars have approach to latest fashion right off the runway, which not showed up in retail stores.
During second stage, this newbie will appear in fashion magazines news papers, TV and internet. At last, the trend is likely to be soaked in the marketplace, commonly at bit lower cost.
In the second phase merchandise that is new is available in bit high-priced designer collections. It's just the third phase, where the merchandise is open to the mass market at reasonable price for the majority of buyers.
Before two or three decades it may have taken it to be made by a some bottoms from runway however, nowadays companies have put the fashion cycle into accelerated speed. Now, a popular craze frequently makes it look in discount or low cost retail store in as tiny as several days or months.
In & Out of Fashion Craze
However, when industry is totally saturated with a same monotonous style it loses its appeal.
So how we are able to presume that how long a fashion craze will last? Let us find out:
Generally, most fashion trends continue usually the acceptable although almost one year, but some styles, last much longer. It is regarded that usually fashion crazes reemerge virtually every twenty years. Thus, the 80s' minis skirts are back in crazes again.
The real key to presume that a craze that is how long will survive depends on from when you purchased the selection. In case you bought when discounts or the knock off are going at retail store, then the count for the trend last not one or two seasons. Fashion industry generally dumps together two seasons collectively, Autumn and Summer, Springtime and Winter, which provides you about half a year before it seems to wear appears outdated.
The truth is it's not pinned down that how long a fashion craze will survive, you are able to put money around the only fads such as jeans, Uggs, hats etc… It does not signify that you mightn't get fun in buying them. They're the evergreen things you would like to buy any time.
Purchasing power can keep a trend on oxygen. Sometimes special styles are loved by people so much they wouldn't let it perish.

|Pats' Harrison carted off field in third
|Written by Admin
|Monday, 20 October 2008 17:28
Patriots running back Sammy Morris also hurt his knee in the first half after rushing for a career-high 138 yards and was not expected to return.
Boss and Champ Bailey, brothers on the Broncos' starting defense, suffered injuries in the first half that were expected to sideline them for the rest of the game. Linebacker Boss Bailey hurt his left knee before cornerback Champ Bailey suffered a groin injury.
The Broncos also lost quarterback Jay Cutler with a hand injury for their final possession of the first half, when he was replaced by Patrick Ramsey. Cutler appeared to be hurt on Denver's first offensive play when his hand hit the helmet of nose tackle Vince Wilfork.
Cutler returned for the Broncos' first series of the second half.

Got caught wanking last night
Last night was hectic. I must have had about 18 pints. Started on the beer at about 9 in the morning, met up with a few fellas, went to a few pubs and then ended up in a nightclub. Anyway, there was a few hot girls in this club i went to. One randomly started dancing with me. I thought great, i haven't shagged a girl in a few months. Things were going well. Despite having a blue mole on her cheek, this girl was absolute stunning. Admittely, she was an embarrassing dancer, but that almost perfect flawless face was making my dick harder than trying to read a CM Skittle rant. After a few more JD and cokes, i decided it was time to ask the question. "Wanna come back to my house and fuck me" i said. "No she replyed, i have a boyfriend, infact, here he is now" I look over, and theres a 6 ft 5 man, staring at me. Unfortunatly, he caught me with my hand on his girlfriends tits. All went black after that, i ended up waking up in a bin outside mcdonalds with a pounding headache and a black eye. This however, was only the beginning of a depressing night.
I returned home, horny as hell. I thought to myself, i could ask CM Skittle to go on webcam so she can strip for me, but i decided against it. In the end, i thought fuck it, i'm gunna have a quick bash and then go to bed. Still drunk, i got out my laptop, put on some porn, pulled my trousers down, and began. The only problem is, i fell asleep halfway through. 30 minutes later, my mum walks in. Of course, my trousers are still around my ankles, the porn is still running, and my mum has caught me. She woke me up, pretending she didn't see anything, but she obviously did, and now i cannot live my life anymore. I've done a shit on someones doorstep, knocked on the door and ran, only for them to walk out in bare feet and step on it, low blowed a police officer and got arrested, and woke up next to a 90 stone slut, but i've never embarrassed myself quite like now. I suppose it could of been worse. I could have had a pint of cum all over the bed eh?
Throw your abuse, because i deserve it. Feel free to share your storys of you getting caught. If not, laugh at me to the point of suicidal.

Veterans could feel impact if U.S. government shutdown lingers
Updated On: Oct 02 2013 10:35:35 PM MDT
We are only days into the government shutdown, but if it continues long enough, benefits for veterans could be cut. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs is saying when funding is exhausted, the government could suspend claims, processing and payments. But it all depends on how long this shutdown will last.
We spoke to a local veteran, Randy Kemp. He was in the Army for 22 years and says he's been in this same situation before. He was in the military when the government shut down in 1995.
"There was a concern that we wouldn't get paid, that active duty wouldn't get paid," said Kemp.
It lasted for 21 days and back then congress was wrestling with similar issues around the budget.
On the campus of MSU there is a veterans support center. University spokesperson Tracy Ellig tells us there are about 500 veterans on campus and they have closely followed the details of this shutdown.
"There would be a slowdown in checks that veterans receive, they will still get them, but they may not get them on the same schedule they had planned," said Ellig.
Ellig also says they are prepared for what is next.
"Should payments from the federal government be delayed, we can offer them short-term, no-interest loans that can cover their expenses," said Ellig.
Kemp says he is prepared as we head into the third day of this shutdown. He is also staying positive, and has faith congress will eventually make a deal before he has to feel the impact.
"I have always planned ahead and have been ready to take care of my family. I have always tried to put money back. We will recover from this also, that is my philosophy," said Kemp.

Seven states, including Florida and Massachusetts, have not yet taken part in a federal program to buy antivirals to ward off a potential influenza pandemic.
A report by a research group, the Trust for America's Health, also shows 13 other states do not have adequate plans to distribute vaccines and medical supplies from the Strategic National Stockpile.
But seven other states, including Virginia, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, have performed well enough in each of ten categories to earn top ratings in the study. The states scoring the lowest include Arkansas, Mississippi and Nevada.
Last year, Virginia scored eight out of ten, with the report finding the state would run out of hospital beds within two weeks of a moderately severe influenza pandemic outbreak. Virginia also lost a point last year for having a nursing shortage.
This year's report used a different set of indicators to measure states' performance and did not count the number of hospital beds or analyze nursing shortages.
The report gives West Virginia a score of eight out of ten. The Mountain State is also listed in the Trust for America's Health report as one of 13 states without adequate plans to distribute vaccines and medical supplies from the Strategic National Stockpile.
The report, released Tuesday, also cites West Virginia for not having access to an around-the-clock laboratory to analyze samples.
West Virginia is named as one of more than half the states that haven't purchased all the antivirals they're entitled to buy under a federal program.
The report says West Virginia has used 58 percent of its federally subsidized allocation so far to purchase about 110,000 antiviral treatment courses.
The Bush administration has encouraged the states to stock up on antivirals such as Tamiflu and Relenza. In one program, the federal government pays a quarter of the costs, with the states paying the rest out of an investment fund that contains about $680 million.
A Health and Human Services Department spokesman says the states have until June of 2008 to place their orders. Bill Hall adds that states that are not buying the antivirals "are putting their own citizens at risk."

Workplace Code of Conduct
Electrolux has a long tradition of providing safe and healthy working conditions, opportunities for education and health care, and careful accounting of environmental impacts.
An important component in these efforts is the Electrolux Workplace Code of Conduct, which was adopted by Group Management in early 2002. The Code defines minimum acceptable work standards for all people involved in the manufacture and sale of Group products – in all countries, business sectors and occupations. It is based on internationally recognized treaties and agreements, such as the core conventions of the International Labor Organization and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.
The Code covers:
- child labor
- forced labor
- health and safety
- non-discrimination
- harassment and abuse
- working hours
- compensation
- freedom of association
- environmental compliance
The Code of Conduct is applicable at all Electrolux locations and compliance is required of suppliers. To facilitate and support the introduction and monitoring of the Code of Conduct, the Group has developed ALFA, an electronic communication tool designed to support learning on the Code requirements, collecting exemplary and best practices and assessing the performance of operating units with regard to the Code.

A former local cowboy and rodeo bull rider, Bob Robertson, will be honoured with an award at the Souris River Rodeo coming up in Weyburn on the weekend of July 18-20, and later this year will be inducted into the Canadian Pro Rodeo Association's Cowboy Hall of Fame.
Born in Weyburn and raised on a farm at Yellow Grass, he grew up wanting to be a rodeo star from when he was a child, and he lived out his dream as a professional bull rider for many years as well as being a professional rodeo judge for 14 years.
He and his family lived on a mixed farm south of Yellow Grass, mostly into grain farming plus raising some purebred Hereford cattle.
"As a kid, farming wasn't interesting to me. I wanted to be a cowboy from the time I could walk," said Bob, and he grew up learning how to ride and to rope.
He attributes the assistance of neighbours to contributing opportunities for him to ride and develop his roping abilities, as when he was a teenager he was asked to help neighbours with their cattle. These included neighbours Don Watson, Bill and Dunc Grassick, whose farm was down the road from him, and Otto Erb, who "always made sure I had a good horse to ride. …
They were very influential on me at that time."
His very first opportunity to compete in a rodeo was at the Goodwater Rodeo, organized by former Yellow Grass resident Don Wilkinson; he had heard of Bob developing as a rider and roper, and invited him to take part in the junior calf roping and junior steer riding events, which he won.
When he turned 18, Bob was hired for the PFRA's Brokenshell pasture by Cecil Eide.
After a year there, a new manager came in, Harry Schiller, who was involved in rodeo events, and invited Bob to come along with him to rodeos.
"That really got the bug going for rodeos," he said. Then he broke his back, and it took him some time to come back from that, then he got back involved in rodeo events more and more, moving over into bull riding as his main event.
"It was easy money. I turned pro in 1973 and was in the top 10 in my first year," said Bob, noting he went on to compete at the Canadian Rodeo Finals for seven years running, including one trip to the National Finals in the U.S.
He became involved with the board of directors for the Canadian Pro Rodeo Association, and was director of bull riding for three and a half years, and then when he thought the association was moving in a direction he didn't like, he successfully ran as president of the association, a position he held for four years. He finished that term in 1989, and around 1991 he was asked if he would like to be a rodeo judge.
"I thought I would try it for a year, and ended up doing it for 14 years," he said, noting this position took him to all the big rodeos, such as the Calgary Stampede and the Canadian Finals.
Part of what made this possible was that he was self-employed as a fencing contractor from a place at Duchess, near Brooks, Alta.
At a recent rodeo in Brooks, he was presented with a plaque, indicating he is to be inducted to the Cowboy Hall of Fame for the Canadian Pro Rodeo Association, and coming up at the Weyburn rodeo, he will be given a life membership gold card for the Canadian Cowboys Association, in a ceremony to be held on Sunday, July 20.
He noted the CCA is the largest semi-pro cowboys association in North America with 65 to 70 rodeos (including Weyburn's), culminating with the big rodeo at Agribition in Regina.
"I'm looking forward to it; I'm hoping there will be a lot of family there," said Bob, noting his mother, and his sister, Marion Scott, and her family, along with other relatives, all still live in Weyburn-Yellow Grass area. The Hall of Fame gala banquet will be held Oct. 18 in Calgary.

Book Review: A New Look at a 20th-Century Titan of Design
Norman Bel Geddes Designs America. Edited by Donald Albrecht (Abrams, $65)
Most Americans lost their faith in the future in the 1960s and are unlikely to regain it any time soon. That makes this handsome survey of work by a great American designer a time capsule of a vanished era, for it chronicles the decades, from the 1920s through the 1950s, when the US was a beacon of hope and progress for the rest of the world. This is the companion book for an exhibition that will soon be on view at the Museum of the City of New York.
Geddes (1893-1958) shaped the future, and the context of contemporary living. Albrecht describes him as a visionary and a pragmatist; a self-taught polymath of unfettered imagination, "who was equally comfortable in the realms of fact and fantasy." All of his concerns—for architecture and urban planning, automobiles and new technologies—came together in his Futurama exhibit for the General Motors Pavilion at the 1939-40 New York World's Fair. Drawing on his experience of designing immersive theater productions, Geddes put spectators into moving sound cars that glided through a vast model of America and its cities as he imagined they might be in 1960. His vision has been realized in part; sadly it doesn't provide the effortless mobility he anticipated.
Other expert essays and a plethora of imagery explore his designs for stage and screen, homes and offices, transportation and advertising. Like his contemporaries, Raymond Loewy and Henry Dreyfuss, Geddes was a giant who deserves to be remembered, for his achievements and his dreams.
Book Review: Art and Nature
Book Review: Residential Delights
"The Iconic Interior: Private Spaces of Leading Artists, Architects, and Designers" is a gorgeous indulgence for the holidays and a source of inspiration for architects and designers, for it includes nearly all the luminaries of the past century, from Adolph Loos and Jean-Michel Frank to John Pawson and David Mlinaric. That quarter indicates the range of the selection, which veers from minimalism to decorative excess and includes many that are one-of-a-kind, notably Michael Boyd's fusion of art and design in the house that Oscar Niemeyer designed in Santa Monica. Author Dominic Bradbury has made a thoughtful choice and his descriptions are a pleasure to read. Richard Powers' images capture the spirit and detail of these varied interiors, as he did for architecture in "The Iconic House", a previous collaboration. Each house and apartment is well documented, and a gazetteer provides contact details for the 18 properties that are open to the public. All credit to Thames & Hudson for commissioning this book and its predecessor, which Abrams are distributing in the U.S.. One could wish American publishers showed as much imagination in this field. The only problem is the title. One can call architectural masterworks iconic, but interiors are far more ephemeral and shaped by passing fashion or an owner's whims.
Book Review: The Best of Ando
Taschen and its house author have been constantly updating their monograph on Tadao Ando, and the latest edition, "Ando: Complete Works 1975-2012", is four times as long as the one that appeared in 1999. It features 42 buildings plus 16 projects that were not realized or are now under construction, mostly in the Middle East and East Asia. The title is misleading: this is a selection of Ando's best designs—even the checklist at the end is far from complete—but it represents the body of work for which the architect wants to be known. One could wish that other prolific practitioners were equally self-critical. Page for page, it's a terrific bargain. Philip Jodidio provides a helpful introduction, keyed to specific buildings, along with a biographical note and a selective bibliography, though one wishes the type had been set at a readable size. Like most contemporary monographs, it's designed not for reading, but browsing; flipping the pages from one beguiling photo spread to the next. The plans, expressive sketches and details draw one into Ando's structures. A self-taught master of concrete and wood, of mass and void, and, above all, of light, this architect—who once built only in Japan—is now at home in every part of the world and in every type of building.

Here are is the article published by the NHTSA about their rule proposal for noisemakers on Hybrids and EV's. The proposal was sent for publication in the Federal Register yesterday. After publication in the Federal Register there is a 60 day public comment period. You will find a link to the proposal at the bottom of the article. Instructions for submitting comments are in the document.
I would encourage thoughtful comments on this proposal. Personally, I think that the requirements are excessive and I am not convinced that it will have any impact at all on their safety goals. I think that constant noisemaking at speeds of 18 mph and below will just add to the problem by increasing ambient noise and confusion making it even more difficult to identify moving Hybrids and EV's.
I think that they can do much better.
No, and No! Our State and Federal Government have MUCH bigger fish to fry than worrying how much noise my BEV makes or does not make. I can already make noise if I want to ... it's called a HORN! and has worked for all kinds of vehicles for over a hundred years.
Anecdotally, a guy I work with was just run over (ankle broken) by a Prius running in electric mode which he did not hear. Yes, he was jaywalking, and no he doesn't blame the Prius. But if it had been an ICE he probably would have heard it. Just sayin.
Let it be known here:
Thoughtful comments at this site are our only hope at this point and the 60 day comment period is nearly gone.
@ stimyg
That's the Fault of the Driver of the Prius. You cannot run into things that appear in your windshield view, especially pedestrians who ALWAYS have the right of way!
It's unfortunate as you say but you can't fix stupid with any noise.
Pedestrians still get hit by trains! And it's not like you can't hear them coming! or expect them to swerve to miss you!
+1 Superliner
Probably need to add a maximum volume for personal entertainment systems while walking rule to the bill. Or how about a minimum number of times a pedestrian is required to look around per minute rule.
Question, Nick. What noise should my car make to prevent me from running into parked cars? Or is it the responsibility of the driver to not hit parked cars, pedestrians, trees, ect?
Second question, once every car starts making all manner of noises, how do we hearing impaired people sort out the real important stuff from noise. Fyi, for some of us hearing impared, its not soud, but noise, that prevents us from hearing properly.
I noticed something interesting about silence when driving the car. We have several thousand deer on our farm. Our driveway is about a mile long. We encounter deer nearly every night on both the nearby road and our driveway. In all of our ICE vehicles, the deer look up and then scatter. In the Model S, the deer NEVER even flinch. They just keep munching away, and we drive on, with no disturbance. Sometimes I have to beep the horn to get them out of the way. Onthe one hand, I have a new hunting technique. On the other, we are concerned that one day a deer will jump out on a larger road when we are at speed.
I have hit two deer on my motorcycle inthe past three years, one bad enough to put me in the hospital for a few days with a brain bleed. I like that the Model S is nearly silent. However, this may be a legitimate issue - people and animals use all kinds of visual and auditory indicators for self-preservation, and not having the auditory signals may count for more than we want to think.
I don;t like the idea of a government-imposed sound mandate, but this may be a necessary change for our cars, especially in urban areas where the blind depend on sound for mobility.
Whether it's a good idea or not, the regulation will not affect our cars. It is proposed to have a slow phase-in, and it will not be retroactive to cars produced before it takes effect.
Since when do pedestrians always have the right of way when not in a crosswalk? Jaywalking is ticketable for a reason, just barely enforced in most places.
Of course if the Prius had time to AVOID the pedestrian, or stop, then its definitely on the Prius, but if not, then its the pedestrians fault. But that doesnt give the pedestrian a right to cross a street whenever and wherever they like.
Time is of the essence. Comments should be directed to the NHTSA.
The NHTSA public comment period for rulemaking for noise makers on hybrids and EVs close in a couple days. This is the last chance that I know of for anyone to have any say in the rule before it is written in indelible ink.
This is a summary of the rule from the news release:
"The sounds would need to be detectable under a wide range of street noises and other ambient background sounds when the vehicle is traveling under 18 miles per hour. At 18 miles per hour and above, vehicles make sufficient noise to allow pedestrians and bicyclists to detect them without added sound. Each automaker would have a significant range of choices about the sounds it chooses for its vehicles, but the characteristics of those sounds would need to meet certain minimum requirements. In addition, each vehicle of the same make and model would need to emit the same sound or set of sounds."
The news release about the rule is here:

@ cloroxbb
IMHO, Pedestrians have the right of way wherever you encounter them (including when they are where they should not be) Don't think so? Try hitting and injuring a few and see what happens.
That said "by letter of the law" Yes a pedestrian CAN be at fault in a car / ped. wreck. but that's a law I personally don't want to test or even flirt with. So "TO ME" the right of way will always belong to the people who are afoot.
Meh, we are only arguing semantics. I wouldn't say they have the "right of way" but of course, I am not going to hit one just because they are in the wrong. I understand where you are coming from, and I agree. I just wouldnt say they have the right of way.
Same page :)
Geek EV;
One of those, huh? Let me get my resolver ...
Here on the Left Coast, pedestrians ALLWAYS have the right of way. Streets, parking lots, crosswalks, whatever.
I understand on the East Coast they are legitimate targets, but not here. You get used to it. I say that as both a driver and a pedesterian.
The Chevrolet Volt has a "pedestrian horn" on the tip of the turn signal. It works fantastic.
I feel like BYT...
This annoys me. How about they mandate eye contact. I see you, you see me. Its as much the drivers responsibility as the pedestrians. If I walk or ride my bike, I've got my head on a swivel looking for clueless drivers. When I drive, I look for dummies on the wrong side of the road buzzing down the street.
The fact it applies to EVs? Has anybody 'heard' a new Jag?
Blood pressure rising...
Rage taking over...
Must exit now!
Don't exit! Please go comment at the site.

My ICE was just as quiet as my Model S too.
Aye, cap'n!
I will comment. I just feel these are uphill battles. But fight while you can. Might stave it off for now. Going against groups of politicians that get paid to do these laws. They just push and reword until they get what they want. Saying what I said earlier about silent ICE, doesn't mean I want it applied to them. I think it should be dropped as a whole. But I doubt it will. Like a virus, it'll be back as a different form. But I will fight. >:-/
Most modern vehicles are too quiet to hear anyway. It'd be interesting to see if there are any statistics out that show hybrids as being involved in any more accidents than regular ICE machines. My guess is that there wouldn't be, and if the study were done it would be negligible.
Mark E;
Exactly. I bet there's no data supporting this. Nor even visually impaired association support (they tend to want less auditory "clutter", and this will increase it!)
This proposed rule almost certainly came about as a result of a push from the visually impaired. My friend is national manager for safety for a major car company. Last year he and his other safety engineer peers from other companies were all invited to a meeting with a national organization for blind people, at which time they were presented with information regarding the blind people's concern for silent vehicles and the risk for blind pedestrians due to inability to hear oncoming hybrids and EVs. So it is not surprising to hear that this has become a mandate from NHTSA.
What is being done for the deaf? The sound won't help them. It would be interesting to see statistics about injuries to the deaf vs injuries to the blind.
This is being supported financially and legislatively by the National Federation of the Blind. Many studies have shown that EV and hybrid cars create increased danger to pedestrians with impaired vision. Perhaps we shouldn't have our head in the sand on this issue:
From Wikipedia:
"Research conducted at the University of California, Riverside in 2008 found that hybrid cars are so quiet when operating in electric mode (EV mode) that they may pose a risk to the blind, small children, the elderly, runners, cyclists, and other pedestrians, as they may have only one or two seconds, depending on the context, to audibly detect the location of approaching hybrid cars when the vehicles operate at very slow speeds. This research project was funded by the National Federation of the Blind.
The experiment consisted of making audio recordings of a Toyota Prius and combustion engine Honda Accord approaching from two directions at 5 miles per hour (8.0 km/h) to assure that the hybrid car operated only with its electric motor. Then test subjects in a laboratory listened to the recordings and indicated when they could hear from which direction the cars approached. Subjects could locate the hum of the internal combustion engine car at 36 feet (11 m) away, but could not identify the hybrid running in electric mode until it came within 11 feet (3.4 m), leaving just less than two seconds to react before the vehicle reached their position. In a second trial, the background sounds of two quietly idling combustion engine cars were added to the recordings to simulate the noise of a parking lot. Under this condition, the hybrid needed to be 74 percent closer than the conventional car before the subjects could hear from which direction the cars approached. Subjects could correctly judge the approach of the combustion car when it was about 28 feet (8.5 m) feet away. This result means that under closer to normal environmental noise, a pedestrian would not be able to correctly determine the hybrid's approach until it was one second away."
"After Nissan's new sounds were publicized, the U.S. National Federation of the Blind issued a statement saying that "while it was pleased that the alert existed, it was unhappy that the driver was able to turn it off."[13] The NFB approves the Nissan Leaf's forward motion sound, but it said the forward noise should also be used for reversing because the "intermittent sound is not as effective as a continuous sound" and that the car should emit warning sounds when it is idling, not only when it's moving slowly. Nevertheless, their main complaint is that they don't think the driver should be able to switch the sound off."
@P_D - I'd love to see them do the same test with an executive sedan, Rolls Royce, Bentley, etc. My guess is that a <10 mph they are as quiet as an EV. I posted this on the NHTSA thread.
If this regulation gets passed, then any car that falls below a certain dB level needs to be subject to the rule, not just EVs and hybrids.
Link to Wikipedia article?
Pungoteague_Dave already blew his argument when he mentioned how the deer did not scatter at the lack of sound from his Model S yet he has hit two deer on a motorcycle.... because we all know how quiet motorcycles are.
I can see now that once the cars start making noise the drivers will have an excuse after they run someone over, "Well my car makes a pedestrian warning sound."
Just because I hit two deer on the quietest ICE motorcycle BMW K1600GTL) does not mean that the quiet car issue isn't there with respect to deer. As I described, the deer don't flinch or seem to recognize this car, even when I am within feet - we drive right on buy with no reaction. On all of our other vehicles, including a Prius, tractors, trucks, etc., they look up when we are hundreds of feet away, and then scatter when we are about a hundred feet from them.
The problem with deer is that when they do move, they are unpredicatble. The issue isn't quiet vs noisy. They move BECAUSE of the noise, but often when it is too late to react. MOST of the time, they move out of danger. Some of the time, they move directly into the hit zone. That's what happened to me, both times at highway speeds on interstates - I saw the deer, but when they reacted, it was directly into my path. With the Model S, I can drive right up to them and they don't move at all. I happen to own land with several thousand deer, so experience this all the time, but only when I am driving at driveway speeds of 15 or so, so can stop before hitting them. It will be interesting to see how many peoiple hit imobile deer with these cars - because of LACK of sound.
I am NOT advocating for sound makers on the Model S, just pointing out some facts that we should be alert to.
The same Wiki piece did refer to other quiet ICE cars beginning to have the same issue, and that the blind activists are asking for noisemakers there too.
There is argument on both sides, my point is that contrary to some other posts here, this is being pushed and funded by the National Federation of the Blind, and there have been many studies from several angles.
More commentary form the wiki piece:
"A separate 2008 study from Western Michigan University found that hybrids and conventional vehicles are equally safe when travelling more than about 20 miles per hour (32 km/h), because tire and wind noise generate most of the audible cues at those speeds. Hybrid cars were also tested safe when leaving a stoplight and it was found that under this condition they do not pose a risk to pedestrians. All Prius models used in the study engaged their internal combustion engines when accelerating from a standstill and produced enough noise to be detected.[9]
A 2009 study conducted by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that crashes involving pedestrians and bicyclists have higher incidence rates for hybrid electric vehicles than internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles in certain vehicle maneuvers. These accidents commonly occurred in zones with low speed limits, during daytime and in clear weather. The study found that a HEV was two times more likely to be involved in a pedestrian crash than was a conventional ICE vehicle when a vehicle is slowing or stopping, backing up, or entering or leaving a parking space. Vehicle maneuvers were grouped in one category considering those maneuvers that might have occurred at very low speeds where the difference between the sound levels produced by the hybrid versus ICE vehicle is the greatest. Also the study found that the incidence rate of pedestrian crashes in scenarios when vehicles make a turn was significantly higher for HEVs when compared to ICE vehicles. Similarly, The NHTSA study also concluded that the incidence rate of bicyclist crashes involving HEVs for the same kind of maneuvers was significantly higher when compared to conventional vehicles."
I don't normally view wiki as a good source for anything, but this seems factual. link here:
