Ron Howard, the Mad Ants' star player, doesn't talk much trash.
But when it comes to teammate Tony R. Mitchell's victory in the D-League Slam Dunk Contest last year, Howard has a sharp tongue.
"He definitely won it because of my help. He's not going to admit it, though," Howard said.
Howard will be the lone Mad Ants player in the All-Star Game today in New Orleans. During halftime, Mitchell will defend his dunk title against Thanasis Antetokounmpo of Delaware, Ra'shad James of Reno and Darren White of Erie.
"That why he won the first time, because I helped him," Howard said. "If he's smart, he'll ask me to do something else so he can win again."
Howard went into the stands last year – he estimates it was 100 feet away from the basket – and sent a bounce pass to Mitchell, who windmilled it in.
"He got me a 43," said Mitchell, adding 50 is the highest possible. "But the dunks I did myself, I got a 50. I might have to take that into consideration.
"I might let (Howard) help me get the first dunk out of the way."
Mitchell's winning dunk, which drew a 50 from a five-judge panel, came after he hauled a 4-foot-high advertisement for the presenting sponsor – Boost Mobile – onto the court and gave himself a bounce pass before jumping over the sign and going in for the slam.
In all seriousness, Mitchell will likely enlist Howard's help today, but he has to check out the venue, Sprint Arena, before he can script out his dunks.
"I'm still thinking about what I'll do," Mitchell said. "Me and Ron have got to get together and see what the stage is like so we can pull out some crazy stuff."
The contest will be judged by San Antonio Spurs guard Danny Green, former NBA players Dell Curry, Otis Birdsong and Artis Gilmore and a sweepstakes winner.
The contest will include two rounds. Only two players will compete in the final round.
The D-League All-Star Game is part of the NBA's All-Star weekend.
It is Howard's third time playing in the game, which will be broadcast live on NBA TV and is intended to be a showcase for the NBA scouts as much as the fans in attendance.
"I know most of my teammates, and I played against maybe all of them at some point. It's weird. Maybe we'll have gotten together maybe once before we played. And we still want to be scouted and play the right way, so it can be difficult, but it'll be fun," said Howard, who will be on the Prospects' team coached by Rio Grande Valley's Nevada Smith.
Note: The Mad Ants acquired forward Matt Bouldin from Delaware for a second-round draft pick. Bouldin, 26, a 6-foot-5 forward out of Gonzaga, will be in the lineup Monday at Springfield, Mass. He averaged 11.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 37 games with Delaware and Los Angeles.

Pacific Honda http://www.pachonda.com RSS Feed for Pacific Honda's Blog Fred Savage is the Voice of Honda http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2014/november/18/fred-savage-is-the-voice-of-honda.htm?locale=en_US

The person chosen to do a voice-over for an advertisement is often a very conscientious choice. The voice-over actor has to have the right tone and spirit for the video in order to really be the voice of whatever company they are working for. Naturally Honda has some strict requirements for the person that they choose to be the voice of their company. Take a look at the training that Fred Savage has done to fit the role below.

We think that Fred Savage is doing a really great job at the whole voice-over thing, after all he hasn't done it before (he didn't actually do the voice over in The Wonder Years). We love how he really captured the voice of the man in the video. He had the perfect commentary! After this we are excited to see the type of stuff he will do as the voice of Honda!

Come to Pacific Honda to see our selection of new Honda vehicles. If you're from the greater Honolulu area then stop by our showroom at 188 S. Beretania St. Honolulu, HI today!

We've been all about the 2015 Honda Fit here on our blog these days, which is simply because this hatchback has so many awesome features worth mentioning. Today we want to highlight its interior versatility which makes it ideal for accommodating just about anything.

Of course it can't fit objects as big as a boat, but that's pretty self-explanatory. Just in case you had questions about its capabilities, Honda got creative with its latest ad campaign for the Fit. Take a look.

If you're interested in taking this hatchback out for a test drive, be sure to visit Pacific Honda located in Honolulu, HI.

 2014-09-03T10:00:00Z Relearning How to Parallel Park with the 2015 Honda Fit http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2014/august/28/relearning-how-to-parallel-park-with-the-2015-honda-fit.htm?locale=en_US

There are some people that don't have to drive around the block, desperately searching for a parking spot; there are some individuals that are able to just flawlessly abide by what they learned in their Driver's ED course years ago and swerve into that street parking spot like nothing. It's child's play to them which is why they are the ones participating in the 2014 Parallel Parking World Championship.

Honda is sponsoring an event that not only shows off the world's best parallel parkers but demonstrates just how well the new Honda Fit can squeeze into those tight spots.

Now its compact size and great handling are not the only thing on the Honda Fit's side, but its features like LaneWatch come in handy too. With Honda LaneWatch, a tiny camera is activated when the driver signals right, and it can be manually activated as well. This way, you get a much better idea of your surroundings and the items that may have before been in your blind spot.

The Honolulu region can practice for next year's competition and test drive the 2015 Honda Fit at Pacific Honda.
  2014-08-28T10:00:00Z 2015 Honda Fit Earns Top Safety Pick Rating from IIHS http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2014/august/21/2015-honda-fit-earns-top-safety-pick-rating-from-iihs.htm?locale=en_US
Just a few months ago, we welcomed the 2015 Honda Fit into our Honolulu, HI showroom and immediately began to sing this model's praises. The Fit is a compact model that offers plenty of space, style and spunk. How could this model possibly get any better?

With a Top Safety Pick rating from the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety)!

When the subcompact hatchback was first put through the IIHS tests, it scored "good" on all but the difficult small-front overlap test, for which it earned a score of "marginal". The Honda brand recently proved their committal to the safety of drivers by deciding that this rating wasn't acceptable, and set about to fix it before putting it through the test again.

The Fit's steel front bumper was reinforced with stronger welding, which earned it the score of "acceptable", thus resulting in the hatchback becoming a Top Safety Pick. For drivers that previous purchased a 2015 Fit, Honda is offering a free bumper replacement.

 2014-08-21T10:00:00Z Reasons to give the Honda Civic Si a Shot http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2014/july/29/reasons-to-give-the-honda-civic-si-a-shot.htm?locale=en_US
As you probably know already, Honda wears many hats. For example, the Japanese brand has its arms outstretched in powersports and automotive racing. The latter, in our humble opinion, enables the automaker to engineer some performance-heavy models that are pretty cool; and fortunately we're not alone in thinking that.

More specifically, recently the team at AutoTrader.com listed their 'Top 5 Reasons to Buy' the Honda Civic Si coupe, which is the sport compact trim of the flagship Honda Civic. To hear their opinion about the athletic model, we welcome you to watch the brief video below.

If you'd like to give the Civic Si a shot, then we welcome you to visit Pacific Honda at 188 South Beretania Street in Honolulu, HI. During your time with our new Honda experts, they're happy to arrange a test drive, detail specs, and answer questions.

We're all about versatility here at Pacific Honda. We know  Honolulu, HI drivers want a vehicle that's easy to pack, easy to drive, and easy on the wallet, and we've got just the vehicle to match the description: the Honda Fit.

The Honda Fit hatchback returns as a 2015 model, and it's spacious, stylish, and fun--just as it's always been. With interior joys such as the ECON button, HondaLink™ Next Generation, a multi-angle rearview camera, a seven-inch display audio, one-touch power moonroof, and more, we understand why some drivers and passengers wouldn't want to get out of the car once they've reached their destination.

What do you ask of your next vehicle? Could the Fit be the answer to your search?

The best way to find out is by taking a trip to Pacific Honda and taking it out for a test drive. We're available to help you when you are ready!
 2014-06-24T10:00:00Z Getting familiar with the 2014 Honda Accord http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2014/june/5/getting-familiar-with-the-2014-honda-accord.htm?locale=en_US
Did you know that the 2014 Honda Accord is the best-selling midsize car in America? Whether you did or you didn't, there's a good chance it doesn't come as much of a surprise. After all, there's good reason why the Accord has always been one of the best-selling nameplates on our lineup here at Pacific Honda.

For starters, it's awfully easy on the eyes. Not for nothing, but it doesn't compromise on performance thanks to a standard 2.4-liter I-4 engine that delivers up to 185 horsepower and 181 lb.-ft. of torque. Best of all, it'll save you a bundle long after you drive it off the lot. Want to learn more? Then, by all means, feast your eyes upon the video below.

Or if you'd rather experience the many winning qualities of the Accord for yourself, we'd be happy to arrange a test drive at our dealership here in Honolulu, HI. Take it from us: you've got a lot to look forward to.
 2014-06-05T10:00:00Z 2015 Honda HR-V Unveiled... Mostly http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2014/may/27/2015-honda-hrv-unveiled-mostly.htm?locale=en_US

The2015 Honda HR-V has been the talk of the town, as most mysterious things are, for quite some time. Honda has allowed us small glimpses here and there of the new crossover and it's finally been revealed, at least through official photographs, at the 2014 New York Auto Show. The video below hosts the official photographs.

The 2015 HR-V is meant to be based off of fit model vehicles while also wearing the hat of a compact crossover. Details of what's to come for the new model are at a minimum but we do know that it shares the same platform as the Fit and has Honda's Magic Seat which means that the back seat folds down flat into the floor.

Much has been left for speculation but Honda says we can expect more solidified details closer to the HR-V's launch. For now, you can visit us at Pacific Honda, 188 south Beretania Street Honolulu, HI 96813 to find out about models available right now.

Safety. Most of the time when customers come to us at Pacific Honda, they ask about what safety features our new Honda vehicles have that will keep them and loved ones safe in the event of an accident. We'll show them the Blind Spot Detection or the several airbags throughout each vehicle, but a huge lifesaving device is something you won't necessarily find as part of the car.

Your attention.

You're two times more likely to crash if you text using your smartphone while driving.

Think about all the people you've seen bow their heads towards their laps while driving. It only takes a second.

We also love how since she's been driving for so long, she's been in nearly every type of car from the early 1900s to today. With the Civic's amazing technology, the auto industry has certainly come a long way since Edythe first tried her uncle's Model T.

Come to Pacific Honda to find out why Edythe and others love the new Civic so much.

Every year, the automotive show that we look forward to most may very well be the Geneva Motor Show and it's just around the corner. Held from March 6th to the 16th in the Swiss city of Geneva, there's already a lot of great things planned and we couldn't wait to share the latest news with all of you.

For the fans of the Honda Civic, and we know there are a ton of you out there, this one will be of particular interest to you! It seems as though the Civic Type R concept will be revealed on March 4th or 5th right before the show begins. However, we should clarify that while it's being called a "concept," it's just another example of our favorite automaker's habit of attaching the word to models just about to hit production. So, in this case, it's an incredibly uplifting suffix!

So what's to be found in this road-ready bad boy? Currently, it's expected to have a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine kicking out a beefy 280 horsepower, a six-speed gearbox, and front-wheel drive. Keep tuned in to the blog and we'll be sure to update you when further developments arise.

For everything else, we welcome one and all to drop in to Pacific Honda at our Honolulu, HI location at your earliest convenience. Our friendly staff can show you around the new Honda lineup, give you all the information inside and out, and set you up with a test drive to get you smiling.

 2013-12-30T10:00:00Z Honda Designer Builds Smartphone Case with Built-In Airbags http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2013/december/6/honda-designer-builds-smartphone-case-with-builtin-airbags.htm?locale=en_US
Today we thought it would be a good idea to take a break from the usual deluge of Honda automotive news to bring you a more unique story. It is well known as a company, Honda does not just produce consumer automobiles, but it has its fingers in lots of different pies in many different industries. Today's story comes from the world of personal electronics where one Honda engineer invented a new way to protect your smartphone.

Anyone who has ever owned a smartphone with a large glass screen knows the terror of feeling the phone slip from your hand or pocket and watching it fall to the ground while whispering a small prayer for a safe landing. Then comes a rush like a high-stakes poker hand when you turn the phone over to see if the screen cracked, or it survived the fall.

To prevent the cracking of the screens, many smartphone users keep theirs permanently in a case, but even then you can't guarantee its safety. Now one Honda designer has come up with a very innovative solution for saving your phone when it takes a tumble: Airbags.

The Case N. Is a very large, but secure phone case that has built-in airbags that will deploy in the event of a phone drop. Before the case hits the ground, a series of small airbags deploy springing the phone back into the air before it bounces to a secure stop.

Check out the video:

It is pretty clear that Honda has no intention of mass-producing this technology for our enjoyment, but we always like to know that the innovation is constant behind the scenes at Honda. If you would like to learn about the airbag, and safety features that can currently be found in the lineup of new Honda vehicles in our inventory, then please don't' hesitate to visit us at our showroom.

Pacific Honda is located at 188 S. Beretania St. Honolulu, HI. We hope to see you soon.
 2013-12-06T10:00:00Z Honda Launches Performance Arm at SEMA http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2013/november/25/honda-launches-performance-arm-at-sema.htm?locale=en_US
Each year, the annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas showcases the best of the best in aftermarket potential with automakers of all kinds. Over the years, Honda has taken part in the festivities, but, they've never truly showcased something that came from an official performance arm. That's because they didn't have one. Well, all that has changed, and at Pacific Honda we think it is one exciting prospect.

When the automaker rolled out a specialized edition of the Honda CR-Z and its hybrid model, it was our first introduction to the Honda Performance Division, also known as HPD. This marks the first model to be tuned up using official Honda parts, with 100 percent of the creation being backed by the automaker itself.

It's all quite cool, and the already stylish CR-Z coupe now gets added accessories like a sport exhaust and suspension, new tires and wheels, and a brake kit along with much more. To up the power in the hybrid, Honda added an intercooler and supercharged the engine, which now gives the CR-Z hybrid 187 horsepower, and doesn't sacrifice any of the efficiency the vehicle provides.

Down the line, Honda will continue to roll out special HPD-inspired models, with the goal of one day having them available for everyone in Honolulu, Hawaii and beyond to enjoy.

While we wait for that, we must say there's still plenty of enjoyment to be found in the new Honda models, and we encourage you to stop in and learn more. Our team would be happy to answer any questions, provide details, and arrange test drives at your convenience.
 2013-11-25T10:00:00Z Hot Tea with the Honda NSX Concept http://www.pachonda.com/blog/2013/october/31/hot-tea-with-the-honda-nsx-concept.htm?locale=en_US
Honda wants people around the world to know that its NSX Concept is one hot ride. It's pretty obvious when you see its bold, supercar looks, and learn of its powerful specifications, but literally, this car can get hot. Hot enough to make many pots of tea, in fact.

To showcase the amount of energy the vehicle emits using its supercharged hybrid system, Honda mounted the vehicle on a platform so it could be put into drive, but not move. They then wired up the electric motors that power the NSX, and attached them to a long row of electric teapots on heating pads. As the engine roars, the kettles begin to shake from the power, but also, the water inside starts to boil.

Pretty cool, right?

While it will be the Honda NSX across the world, and this particular model will compete on many racing circuits, the NSX as we know it is from the automaker's luxury arm, Acura. Still, Honda technology is behind it, and we're hopeful that some of that high-powered electric engine, kettle boiling action will make its way on to new Honda vehicles available in our Honolulu, HI showroom down the line.

Until then, we have our current lineup of quality models here at Pacific Honda. Our team is happy to give you all the specifications and details on each one. They can also answer any questions you might have, and when the right model grabs your attention, arrange a test drive.

Already a proud Honda owner? Be sure and keep your service and auto repair intervals regular, as our team of maintenance specialists are here to keep it running at optimal levels.

CASHION, Okla. (AP) Authorities say an infant has been found unharmed in West Texas after she was abducted in Oklahoma.
Dispatcher Traci Tate with the Kingfisher County Sheriff's Department says the 5-month-old girl was found "safe and sound" early Friday morning.
Dispatcher Patty Thompson said later that the girl was found in Seminole, Texas, by local authorities. She said no one was apprehended but said she could not elaborate. She said that the department had no further details but that the Seminole police chief would be making a statement Friday morning.
The Oklahoma Department of Public Safety canceled the Amber Alert it had issued for the girl.
Authorities had said earlier the girl was abducted near Cashion, in central Oklahoma.

Islanders Surprise

from Larry Brooks of the NY Post,
Once upon a time in Hollywood they made a movie with Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift called "The Misfits." Now, more than four decades later, the sequel appears to be playing on Long Island with people like Ted Nolan, Alexei Yashin and Chris Simon among those in the cast.
The I, Me, My Islanders of Charles Wang have been one of the real pleasant stories in hockey this year, even as they live in obscurity, even if they've become the other entry in what has evolved into a one-horse hockey town.

Ovechkin Visits Buffalo

Comments (0)
from the Washington Post,
Alex Ovechkin says he has put the controversy behind him.
Tonight at HSBC Arena in Buffalo, the Washington Capitals star will find out whether Daniel Briere and the Sabres have done the same….
"If I hit him hard like I can, it's much worse," Ovechkin said, referring to the fact that he outweighs Briere by 41 pounds. "It was just a situation where I didn't want to hit him. I didn't hit him hard, if you saw this replay. I'm glad he's okay and not much happened to him."
more (reg. req.)
added 9:10am, from the Buffalo News,
Briere believes him. He thinks the play was just part of Ovechkin's aggressive nature. That doesn't mean he likes the hit . . . or the player.
"Before the hit I had always been a big fan of Ovechkin," Briere said. "And, for the most part, he plays the game hard. I like his enthusiasm, and I've never seen him do any cheap shots to anybody else.
"But obviously, with what happened, I think people understand that I've lost some respect for him for the way he hit me on that play."

from Randy Zarnke, special to the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner,
Change in equipment is part of this evolutionary process, as well. For the sport of hockey, improvements in gear worn by goaltenders may be the most noticeable change over the past few decades. These improvements in the equipment follow changes in playing style and allow changes in playing style.

Take The Risk

from the News & Observer,
Las Vegas.
An NHL team in Vegas would not only be a financial bonanza but bolster the ever-eroding position of hockey in the pantheon of American sports. The NBA landed the first blow when it figured out a way to bring its All-Star Game to Vegas this February, but it's the NHL that is best equipped to capitalize on the untouched market. Here are the top five reasons why:
1. IT MAKES TOO MUCH SENSE. Like Nixon and China, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman has the chance to open the great unlocked potential of Las Vegas—and profit handsomely in the process.

from Neil Tarpey of the Times-Standard,
It has not been slapped, kicked, knocked down or back-handed in over 30 years.
In fact, for most of those years the black hockey puck, hard evidence of my youth, has been entrusted to the safety of a small shelf at home alongside three baseball and softball trophies.
For a sports relic that is comparatively small, one inch thick by two and three-quarter inches in diameter, it brings back big geographic, historic and personal memories.

Form Fitting Has Flaws

from Canada.com,
Imagine being a National Hockey League forward. Imagine that a significant chunk of your workload involves hustling into corners and standing in front of nets.
Now imagine that everyone in the rink can see where your padding is—or, more to the point, where your padding isn't.
That's what scares San Jose Sharks sniper Jonathan Cheechoo about the league's push for form-fitting jerseys—the telling exposure.
"It's a bird's-eye view of where your equipment stops," says last year's Maurice Richard Trophy winner for the league's top scorer.

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
Scott Parel holds a one-stroke lead over Steve Wheatcroft heading into the final round of the Air Capital Classic. Parel made two birdies in his first three holes at Crest view Country Club in the third round. He then made a lengthy eagle putt on 14 to get to 12-under-par but would give one back on 16 and finish at 202 11-under-par.
There are seven players tied for third two off the pace. Notable names in that group include; Paul Claxton, who shot 63 in the third round, Kansas Jayhawk Chris Thompson, first-round leader Alex Prugh and Bhavik Patel.
Parel, who has never held a lead after 54 holes in a Web.com Tour event, ranks seventh this week in fairways hit. The 48-year-old pro is trying to keep it in the short grass as much as possible because he knows that the rough this week cuts down on the amount of chance he has to make birdies.
"The thing for me this week is I have to play out of the fairway," he said. "Keeping the ball in play in the past has been my strength, this year it is not."
Parel sites a herniated disc along with other troubles with his back for an inability to find as many fairways as he is accustomed to. He is starting to feel good and is playing much better as a result.
"The back is great," he said. "The last three weeks it's felt really good and you have to play well when you feel good."
Parel has not recorded a top-10 this year on the Web.com Tour. In fact this is only the fourth cut he has made. The Augusta, Georgia resident knows that this is a good opportunity to get his first win on Tour and hopes to capitalize on his good play heading into the final round. The top 75 on the money list after the Cox Classic get into the Web.com Tour Finals at the end of the year which is what Parel, who is currently ranked 153rd, is focused.
"I just put myself in position to have a chance," he said. "You have to take advantage because you don't know how many chances you're going to get.
"Everyone knows you make the majority of your money in a three or four week period. My goal is to play well enough to get into that top 75 and have a chance in those four finals events."
Wheatcroft birdied his first four holes of the day before making four bogeys in his next five holes. He struggled with his short game and also made a few mistakes off the tee in that "bad stretch of golf". He was able to save his round on 18 when he buried a lengthy eagle putt putting him at 10-under and in the final threesome on Sunday.
"It was a great way to finish, I needed that," he said. "Because I felt like I had just thrown the day away. You always want to be in the final group," he said. "You want to be with the leaders because if you have to catch somebody you want to be watching them."
Players will go off in threesomes on Sunday off split tees with the leaders teeing off the first hole at 9:50 AM CT because of the possibility of storms in the afternoon.

Actress Teri Hatcher pedals 50 miles to the set of "Desperate Housewives" and back home every week. The star got on her bike after taking part in the Malibu Triathlon in California in 2009 and finding she liked life in the saddle.
And now she cycles the five miles to work and back daily. She says, "Some weekends, my girlfriends and I will do a more beautiful ride, like a 40-mile ride on Mulholland Drive."
Hatcher reveals the bike was a birthday gift: "One night I came home from work late, and there it was, with a big bow and a card signed by all my girlfriends. I started crying. It was very sweet."
Teri Hatcher has recently completed her first sporting challenge when she joined California's Malibu Triathlon in September 2009. At that time, she crossed the finish line in just over two hours and six minutes and claimed that she's ready to do it again in 2010.

November 28, 2014
ATLANTA (AP) -- It might have been the setting for a "Jaws" movie.
Six snorkelers wading like ducks in a row, cruising just below the surface of the water while watching exotic fish dart beneath them. It was all very peaceful, until the mysterious whale shark appeared out of the deep blue.
The six guests were circling the world's largest fish tank through the Georgia Aquarium's "Swim with Gentle Giants" program, which puts six snorkelers and six divers into the 6.3-million gallon fish tank each day.
The visitors are treated to close-up encounters of roving bands of sting rays, sleek hammerhead sharks, enormous grouper and countless other species.
It's not a cheap trip, costing $190 for snorkelers and $290 for scuba divers. But the aquarium has so far been encouraged by the response. Aquarium spokesman Dave Santucci said some 1,500 have signed up for the program before its June 8 start.
The aquarium is the only outside Asia to house the whale sharks, and the only in the world to offer tourists a chance to dive with the creatures. The Georgia Aquarium is one of the few places that have ever attempted to house the creatures, and the only in the U.S.
So far their record is spotty: Two of the whale sharks have died since the aquarium opened in 2005. But the aquarium has invested in research projects on the whale shark in Mexico, Taiwan and Mexico.

The first time I visited Aguadilla, I was fascinated with the great beaches and natural beauty of this part of the island. It is a perfect place to enjoy a relaxing family getaway. Puerta del Mar is one of the most modern residential developments in the area and has a resort look and feel. The spectacular infinity pool sunset views, modern amenities, our balcony ocean view, manicured gardens and friendly tourist atmosphere convinced us to purchase this property.
What makes this condo unique
One of best benefits of our location is that it's just a five minute drive to Crash Boat Beach and ten minutes to the Aguadilla (BQN) airport. The people in Aguadilla are very friendly and are bilingual or speak some English. The atmosphere is so relaxing after a few days of the tropical breeze and sunshine you won't want to leave.

Five months after a bank was held up in Pembroke Pines, an anonymous tip to law enforcement led to the arrests of two young men from Miramar, authorities said.
It was lunchtime on Sept. 4, 2013, when two masked men dressed in dark clothing and carrying firearms entered a TD Bank branch at 7999 Pines Blvd. in Pembroke Pines, according to a federal criminal complaint affidavit.

You gotta wonder if maybe Billy Idol invested in the patenting of hair gel, since there are few who've done as much to bolster its sales as he has. The only time he veered from his trademark peroxide-blond spikes was in '93, for his techno-informed Cyberpunk, and the dreadlocks that accompanied that release were mocked as universally as the album. Of course, Idol overdosed a year later, which makes you wonder if, despite that surly growl, he kind of knew what he was doing when he snorted all that blow. It's been twelve years since he almost died that time, sixteen since the time before that when he almost became worm food in a motorcycle crash -- not to mention all the other times he probably nearly bought the farm during his orgy-filled, booze- and drug-fueled ride through the '80s. Yessir, Idol is back. And while the dreadlocks have been forgiven, Cyberpunk never will be.

There's a lot to experience in Campania, more than you can possibly imagine. You have to go to the Amalfi coast of course, but consult our travel articles below for more trip suggestions.
Mediterranean Fish Fillets Recipe
So you? How can you cook fish? Here's my magic fish recipe. The recipe makes 6 portions and prep time is 10 mins with cook time twenty minutes.
1 1/2 pounds firm white fish fillets, such halibut, striped bass or orange roughy, 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1 can (14 1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained, 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata, green or black olives, cut in two lengthwise, 2 tbsps white wine, 1 teaspoon Basil Leaves, 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder, 1/4 teaspoon Thyme Leaves
Pizza Toppings in Naples
Many readers might be confused between a Pizza Napoli, a Pizza Marinara and a Risotto alla Pescatora.
Basically, a pizza Napoli is tomatoes and very salty alici or anchovies.
A pizza marinara is the same but with the addition of garlic (at least that's how they make it near where we live).
A risotto alla pescatora can contain anything from mussels to shrimps, lobster and crab legs.
Furore near Amalfi
Furore is located in a splendid oasis of peace along the Amalfi coast overlooking the Bay of "Capo di Conca".
The centre of Amalfi is 7 kilometres away, Positano 40 minutes and wonderful Ravello just 35 minutes.
Furore itself has the honour of being located by the only fjord in Italy from where the only annual coastal high diving championships are held (view the video).
Interestingly, it is not really a place, but a series of small hamlets dotted above a natural fjord which protects the ancient fishing village at it's mouth.
The luxuriant vegetation and setting lends the whole spot to a wonderfully mysterious atmosphere.
How to Visit Pompeii and Herculaneum
Pompeii and Herculaneum must be on your travel itineraries for south Italy. It's not a question of whether to visit the two famous ancient Roman buried cities or not, its all about how to visit them.
In our experience the options are:
- go with an organised group (too frustrating)
- do it alone (too much to see and what guidebook to buy)
- hire a professional guide and travel by Mercedes (absolutely)
For Pompeii, make the choice between basing yourself near the entrance to the archaeological site or nearer the Sanctuary and new Pompeii. The two are not so close after you've been trekking all day.
For Herculaneum, why not stay in town before heading up Vesuvius the day after.
Discover Pompeii
Notwithstanding years of institutional neglect which have done little to protect the priceless ruins, the archaeological site of Pompeii is still very impressive.
Just wandering along the paved roads, past the ruined temples and into the ampitheaters and doorways is a tremendous thrill.
But it is a close attention to the smaller details which transports us back to the Roman city's daily life before it all went black on that tremendous late August day in 79 AD when Vesuvius blew its top.
There's no getting away from the shadow of the volcano even today. It seems too close for comfort.
Ask any official guide and you'll be informed that Vesuvius is a real nasty piece of work and is due to go off at any time!
Amalfi Coast lemons in the United States
We have received many emails asking where to get hold of Sorrento lemons in the United States of America. It seems it is a lot easier getting hold of byproducts such as limoncello. But we are still referring only to products made from Amalfi Coast lemons and not the actual thing.
For the definitive answer as to the availability of Amalfi Coast lemons in the United States we received this email from Tracy L. Kahn.

pieces damaged inconsistant coloring had to reship pieces 4 times still nicked and damaged pieces. waited over a month for replacement pieces . very big dissapointment . overstock needs to reprice this or get rid of it all together. looks pretty its a shame they couldnt get the pieces undamaged and color uneven
I hired my contractor to assemble this bed and chest. It took him 5.5 hours and he is a pro at this sort of thing. I would have preferred to spend more money for a daybed that is already assembled, than to spend $250 to have it assembled on top of the cost of the product. Once it is assembled it is sturdy and looks as it appears in the photo and performs as is described. One thing to note is I would not recommend this bed for a person under 5' 6". My mom is 5' 3" and she has to hop/climb on the bed. We will most likely need to buy a stool. I'm 5'9" and my feet do not touch the floor when sitting on the bed. Unless you are tall and have the patience to assemble this, I would look elsewhere.

Mike Hopins, 53, Oscar-winning sound editor for 'Lord of the Rings,' dies in rafting accident
By ASSOCIATED PRESS January 1, 2013 4:30PM
FILE - In this March 5, 2006 file photo, Mike Hopkins poses as he holds their Oscar for achievement in sound editing for his work on "King Kong" at the 78th Academy Awards in Los Angeles. Oscar-winning sound editor Mike Hopkins, who worked on the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and other blockbusters, has died in a rafting accident in New Zealand. Police Senior Sergeant Carolyn Watson said the 53-year-old Hopkins drowned on Sunday, Dec. 30, 2012 after his raft capsized in a river on New Zealand's North Island.

Updated: February 3, 2013 6:21AM
WELLINGTON, New Zealand — Oscar-winning sound editor Mike Hopkins, who worked on the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and other Peter Jackson films, has died in a rafting accident in New Zealand. He was 53.
Hopkins drowned on Sunday when his inflatable raft capsized during a flash flood in a river on New Zealand's North Island, police senior Sgt. Carolyn Watson said. His wife survived.
The New Zealand Herald newspaper quoted "Rings" director Peter Jackson as saying many actors, directors and film crew members who were lucky enough to work with Hopkins would miss him deeply.
"Mike was a very genuine, caring and warm-hearted guy with a great sense of humor," Jackson said.
A native New Zealander, Hopkins shared Oscars with sound editing partner Ethan Van der Ryn in 2006 for "King Kong" and in 2003 for "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers." They also were nominated for 2007's "Transformers."
Hopkins also was sound editor on the two other "Rings" films and had worked on earlier Jackson movies including "Heavenly Creatures" and "The Frighteners."
The Herald reported a family celebration of Hopkins' life was planned on Thursday.
A river contractor, Bruce Slater, and his son used a jet boat to rescue Hopkins' wife. Nicci Hopkins had been in the Waiohine River two hours and was clinging to a ledge in a narrow part of the gorge too dangerous for bigger boats or a helicopter.
Watson called the Slaters heroic. Slater told Fairfax New Zealand the flash flood raised the river 2 to 3 meters (9.8 feet) while the rafters were in the water.
"If they'd been half an hour earlier, they would have been clear of the gorge," he said. And a half hour later, the water levels would have been noticeably dangerous before the rafters launched, Slater said.

The extensions I make are created because I have a need for them myself. So it's got my heart! So it is very useful for others to give feedback and show me what can be improved.
By the way, you can pay for my extensions. But you won't get any better support for it :D
I'm a Joomla newbie and Peter (the designer) worked patiently with me to solve the problems.
The best way to get the support is to ask questions on his bulletin board. He usually responses in less than 24 hours (and many times in less than 24 minutes!).
If you need to plop in code, use Sourcerer.
Please don't shoot me if I don't respond within 24 hours though :)

DBPOWER® 33W 5.0V 6.5A 6-port USB Intelligent Charger ICH-03, Family-Sized, Super Charger Desktop Charger for iPhone 5S 5C 5 4S 4, iPad Air Mini, Samsung Tablets, Galaxy S5 S4 S3, Galaxy Note 3 2, HTC, Sony, Nokia, Asus Google Nexus and Smartphones, Tablets, iPods, Most Digital 5V USB-Charged Devices (White)
I've used the DBPOWER® Charger to charge every phone, tablet, and power bank I own. It's even charged my son's quadcopters. There are two iPhone ports, one iPad port, and one Samsung tablet port, one Samsung smartphone port, and one Android port. I have one iPhone, three Android phones, one Kindle tablet. The power banks and quadcopters qualify as "none of the above." Does it matter? No. Do I plug in one Android phone and wait it out with my other two Android phones? Nope. What do I do with my quadcopters and power banks? The answer? I don't care. They all go to whatever port is open . . . and they all charge. Sure, for optimum performance, the iPhone goes into the iPhone port, but if that's not what you have, don't worry about it.
It's a good charger. My only wish is for more 2.1 amp ports. Only the iPad port is 2.1 amps. The Samsung tablet port gives 1.3 amps, and the rest are 1 amp or less.

A Muppets version of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody? You got me at Gonzo and the chickens. This is one of the first 1080p YouTube clips, weighing 107MB compared to the 72MB 720p. Does the resolution make any difference? You bet. »
