IMS Research is forecasting that nearly 40 percent of TV sets shipped in 2011 will be enabled with some type of digital tuner enabling reception of digital TV without the need for a set-top box, up from an estimated 7 percent in 2005.
But will iDTV drive the set-top box into extinction? IMS predicts both products will coexist for some time, with operator-driven deployment of feature-rich set-top boxes continue in many markets where iDTVs thrive. For free-to-air satellite and DTT platforms, basic low-cost boxes will be key to enabling full transition to digital broadcasting. IMS does not foresee iDTVs becoming a true threat to set-top box suppliers in the current decade.
IMS's recent study, The Worldwide Market for Television Sets, forecasts worldwide rollout of digital TV services, as well as HDTV programming, will result in TV makers integrating digital tuners, particularly for digital terrestrial TV (DTT) reception, into TV sets.
"The strong adoption of DTT in Western Europe is already incenting some major brand suppliers to make DTT tuners a de facto standard in many flat panel display models," said IMS Research Director Anna Hunt. "Although iDTVs supporting ATSC and DVB-T standards are likely to be most common, TV sets with built-in digital cable and digital satellite reception are also expected to penetrate more markets. Growth of the digital free-to-air satellite platform worldwide and supplier driven force such as the CableREADY initiative in the US are likely to drive additional tuner integration."
As more suppliers integrate digital tuners into TVs, multi-platform iDTVs are also likely to become more common, as is already happening in Japan and the US, IMS said.

Skinner is a self-taught artist from Sacramento, California who has meticulously crafted a balance of extraordinary mural work, mighty powerful wall-to-wall installations and a prolific commercial career.
Influenced by 80s pop culture, human struggle, myths and violence, dungeons and dragons, and the heavy metal gods, Skinner's mind is one full of mayhem fueled by a calculated chaos. His work has been shown all over the universe — at places like the Museum of Graphic Design in Breta, Netherlands, the Illustrative Festival in Berlin, Germany, Japan, France, and the states from LA to New York and everywhere in between.
He recently participated in the epic 'Suggestivism' exhibition at the Grand Central Arts Center. His most recent solo exhibit entitled 'The Fear You May Know' reigned at White Walls Gallery in San Francisco in the summer of 2010. Skinner's work has been featured in many publications, including Blisss, Juxtapoz, Hi Fructose, and Beautiful / Decay.

Hurricane Sandy makes it way north, NYC eerily quiet
Took a walk in my neighborhood this morning some ten hours before Hurricane Sandy is expected to arrive and the City that never sleeps was sleeping. Still is. Businessess are closed. Streets are deserted. The usually buzzing Chelsea area of Manhattan was eerily quiet. Took this photo in the middle of the street.
Walked toward the Hudson River--three blocks away from my home--and it was already over flowing. Sandy is serious. Be safe y'all.

The Senate last week passed the Digital Television Border Fix Act of 2007 (S.2507) that would set up a way for television broadcasters along the U.S.-Mexican border to continue broadcasting in analog and digital after the Feb. 17, 2009 DTV transition. The measure would establish a means for border stations to apply to the Federal Communications Commission to seek permission to stay on the air with their analog transmissions for years following the nationwide DTV transition deadline. The act, introduced last year by Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX), passed the Senate by unanimous consent. Companion legislation, H.R. 5435, has been introduced by Rep. Hilda Solis (D-CA) in the House. The Senate approved the bill to give broadcasters along the border the ability to effectively postpone the completion of their DTV transition "so border residents' access to important public safety information is not threatened," Sen Hutchinson said. The bill would allow stations within 50 miles of the border to seek FCC permission for continued simulcast of analog and digital transmissions for up to four years after the DTV deadline.

text: Red Bull now have the wings to win titles 20 May, 2010 Red Bull drivers Mark Webber (left) and Sebastian Vettel try out their wings while celebrating in Monaco May.20 (Michael Johnsson) The Red Bull Racing team is finally turning the potential of this year's car into results on the track, seizing the leads of both Formula 1 championships and sounding a clear warning to rivals that they intend to keep them. Red Bull Racing duo have waved goodbye to their rivals lately Plagued by niggling reliability issues and bad racing luck early in the season, Red Bull has emerged as a force to be reckoned with. Both drivers are tied atop the drivers points standings after strong recent performances, putting the team in position one in the constructors title chase. The most recent examples were Mark Webber's sterling performances at both Barcelona and Monaco, where he posted dominant race victories from pole position without putting a wheel wrong. Webbo's Monte Carlo drive in particular was a master class, as he kept the lead and his head through three restarts and never exhibited so much as a single active nerve ending. Mark Webber led Sebastian Vettel to an emphatic 1-2 at Monaco His teammate, Sebastian Vettel, hasn't exactly been doing poorly except in comparison to Webber's recent dominance. He won in Malaysia and finished second in Monaco, bringing his 2010 podium count to three, a total would be higher if not for a late mechanical problem in Bahrain and a wheel failure in Melbourne. He has started from pole three times and Webber twice in this season's six races to date. All this means that the Ferraris and McLarens of the F1 world need to pick up their respective pace sooner rather than later or they'll be left in the dust by an outfit that's looking more like the team to beat with every passing race. Ferrari has just one win this year and McLaren two. Red Bull has the rest. Red Bull team boss Christian Horner with prized silverware from Monte Carlo Ferrari's cause was not aided at Monaco when Fernando Alonso crashed heavily during Saturday's practice session, which ruled him out of taking part in qualifying as the team repaired his car. While he recovered admirably to finish sixth after starting from the pit lane, he might have done better from the first two rows of the grid, where he had started in four of the previous five races. Nor was McLaren helped when a mechanic apparently left a radiator block in one of Jenson Button's side pods as he left the pits on Sunday to take to the grid. The ensuing heat build-up made porridge out of Button's engine after just two laps, knocking him out of the championship lead. Adrian Newey is the (substantial) brains behind the Red Bull RB6 Neither team has room for such errors at this point, even though the season has just reached the one-third mark. Nor can pretenders such as Mercedes GP, which lost points at Monaco thanks to Michael Schumacher's bull-headed attempt to improve his final placement on the final corner. The pace Red Bull is now setting makes keeping things clean that much more important. The RB6 chassis, penned by renowned F1 aerodynamicist Adrian Newey, is sleek and efficient. Its power, supplied by Renault, has been reliable and is likely to remain so. The manufacturer's team has yet to suffer any engine failures this year and neither has Red Bull. In fact, a Renault engine hasn't given up since Vettel's folded during last year's European GP, their only failure in the last 36 races according to the Formula 1 web site. Red Bull will be looking to captialise on their dominant form Such is not the case at Ferrari, where Fernando Alonso has suffered an engine detonation this year, if only in practice, which must still cause him a somewhat nervous feeling. The Sauber team has experienced multiple failures with its Ferrari customer power plants, which must make team principal Peter Sauber, whose cars are running sans sponsorship, wonder why he's paying for them. Any further errors on the part of any team expecting to contend for either title this year could seal their fate as Red Bull gets stronger as the season progresses. Should it continue to do so, they'll likely have a trophy for each horn before the year's out.

We love meeting new people and getting reacquainted with old friends and past guests. We are dedicated to insuring you have a relaxing and enjoyable stay. You may come through the door as a guest, but you will leave as a friend.
We started our business as a hobby in 2002 when we opened a small (one room!) B & B in Wellsboro, PA. We appropriately named our endeavor The Empty Nest since we had just recently sent our youngest off to college. We enjoyed it so much that when an opportunity came up in Canisteo, NY we just couldn't pass it up! Now, instead of 1 room, we have 3!
"We" are John and Sharron Cox. Our interest in collecting antiques over the years has inspired our love of old architecture as well. Nothing else has the appeal of an old house and its history.
John's passion is going to auctions and bringing home a "bargain" for Sharron to refinish. Many of the furnishings in our home have been lovingly restored by us.
We share our home with 2 very active kittens. Ziggy (orange) and Zeke (black) are litter mates. They joined our household in July 2010 and their antics have already made quite an impression on our guests.

Well. He is controlling. With money,friends family many facets of our relationship. He is a social guy with lots of friends. And I am not as social, I guess not as open as he is. So mist of my friends are women whom I have met through him..wines of his friends. I have no friends who are my own. Except for family members who I am somewhat distanced from. Family life is..ok. I have a previous son..preteen age..and two young sons with my husband. Him and preteen son don't get along too well although they both try. My husband has a temper. He is very hard to get along with at home. He has disciplined the kids a little harshly at times and 2 times I have taken the kids and left because he has gotten out of control. We of course went back..and overtime we do it is a beautiful family for awhile..he is perfect husband..perfect father.
Ok..here is my story. I am not perfect by any means . I am disorganized..my house is somewhat messy..all the time..I tend to drink a bit too much at times. And a little over a year ago entered into an emotional relationship with a single casual acquaintance of our group of friends. I am going to continue my story in another post because I am afraid I will lose what I've written so far..thanks for sticking with me.

You definetly need help recognizing your abusive relationship. I suggest you start by contacting the National Domestic Violence Hotline 1−800−799−SAFE(7233) or www.thehotline.org. If you visit their web site you can find additional information and answers to your questions. Or check your local yellow pages for a local domestic violence service.
Getting help with the abuse doesn't automatically mean you're going to be divorced. It's an opportunity for both you and your husband to get objective help for this issue. He may not even realize his actions are 'abuse," and he may not understand why he's abusive. He needs help, too, especially if you want to save your marriage.
I also encourage you to ask for help from alcoholics anonmyous for your drinking. You're drinking for a reason and you need to be sober so you can raise your kids and take care of yourself. Whether you stay or go in the marriage, this is very important you get control of your alcohol use.
It's not a good idea to have an outside boyfriend. It doesn't matter if it's "platonic" it's clearly another way for you to avoid dealing with your husband and the state of your marriage. If it's so obvious to your husband that your friend cares about you; you're not hiding anything behind a mask of friendship. Your friend needs to step back and give you the space you need to deal with your marriage. It's also important you have a clear head so you can think about what it is you want to do and how you want to go forward.
Start with the Hotline and go from there. You have a lot of challenges ahead of you but you deserve to be treated well, be sober, and by happy. Good luck.

If you need immediate assistance, call 911 or your local emergency service.
For domestic violence helplines and shelters, click here.
Why doesn't she just leave? It's the question many people ask when they learn that a woman is being battered and abused. But if you are in an abusive relationship, you know that it's not that simple. Ending an important relationship is never easy. It's even harder when you've been isolated from your family and friends, psychologically beaten down, financially controlled, and physically threatened.
If you're trying to decide whether to stay or leave, you may be feeling confused, uncertain, frightened, and torn. One moment, you may desperately want to get away, and the next, you may want to hang on to the relationship. Maybe you even blame yourself for the abuse or feel weak and embarrassed because you've stuck around in spite of it. Don't be trapped by confusion, guilt, or self-blame. The only thing that matters is your safety."

Unconventional Wisdom: Dante Ferretti
Production Designer Dante Ferretti on Scene Setting
By Ingrid Abramovitch
• I studied architecture as well as fine art in school, and it has been a major influence on what I do. In fact, my first job was as an assistant to an architect, Aldo Tomassini, who was a friend of my father's. Before he was an architect, he was a production designer. One day he got a call to design a movie about pirates, and since he was busy he sent me to build the set. The next movie-set-design job he took was with the director Pier Paolo Pasolini.
• When I'm designing a set, I like to pretend I'm an architect living in the period in which the movie takes place. It's my own version of the Actors Studio method. If the movie is set in the 16th century, I imagine I'm Dante Ferretti, the Renaissance architect.
• On every film, I draw charcoal sketches to convey the look and atmosphere I am going for. Then my team and I create elaborate blueprints as well as architectural models. But it always starts with the script and the director's vision. Martin Scorsese and I watch many movies together. With Pasolini, the reference was usually art. When we made The Decameron, we looked at Giotto's paintings.
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, 1988, directed by Terry Gilliam.

The investigation is being handled by the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the FBI.

At first i wasn't too keen on it myself but after sitting on my shelf for over 2 years i recently decided to give it another try and i was hooked. The added bikes make it even better, they are really great fun to drive.

It's not all the time that an automaker decides to make major changes to a vehicle within the first year of production. Sure, Honda just refreshed their new Civic one year after the launch, but events like these are rare.
That said, it isn't all bad.
Tesla states that buyers of the 40 kWh battery will now have the performance specs of the 60 kWh battery: 0-60 mph times are down to 5.9 sec from 6.5 sec, and top speed is up 10 mph to 120 mph. There is no mention if the warranty for the 60 kWh battery (8 years, 125,000 miles) replaces the 40 kWh model's original warranty of 8 years, 100,000 miles.
Adding to the similarity between models, Tesla says that current or future owners of the 40 kWh model will have the option of upgrading to full 60 kWh capacity at any time, for an additional cost. There is no announcement of pricing at this time.
That's great news for that 4% that ordered the 40 kWh model, but we wonder if 60 kWh customers might be a bit annoyed--especially those who were sold on the performance increase over the planned 40 kWh model.
Is using software to limit battery capacity an odd strategy for Tesla or is it simply the best solution considering the low demand? Certainly, placing limits on the Model S is an uncharacteristic move for Tesla.
Let us know what you think in the comments.

To bludgeon my beef, I generally just ball up my fist and punch. Repeat till tender. I'll maybe hum "The Rye or the Kaiser" under my breath while doing so, and my meats are usually sufficiently softened as a result. This was all fine until I discovered the ultimate in faux-badass kitchen accessories. The Knuckle Pounder Meat Tenderizer!
Ever since I saw that little gem, I knew that I had to have one. But I wanted the option of using the brass knuckles again for another project or perhaps a good old-fashioned street rumble. Welding was out because A: It's permanent, B: I don't know how, and C: this project is too ridiculous to learn a new skill that requires specialized equipment.
Luckily, the dollar store sells this wooden meat tenderizer that might as well just be a beef massager. (I suspect that's what they use when Kobe cows* get their luxurious and sensual massages.) With some zip ties, a drill, a handsaw, and a lot of patience, I was able to put together a brass knuckle meat tenderizer that is both less practical and more expensive than the one I saw online.
*Right? It's not technically Kobe beef until they get butchered. Or until they start a fight with a Los Angeles Laker.
Art is an exception. And this is clearly art.
To determine just how illegal your next art project will be, you can look up state penal codes and statutes on findlaw. (Only in IL, NY, CA, TX and a handful of others. Search your state or province's website for its penal codes.)
That's the real question
Ehhhhh.... waidaminnute...
When can we expect to see action shots of you beating your meat?
This project was inspired by the Rocky scene (along with the legitimate product I found), but I felt that the Weird Al parody of Eye of the Tiger was a better video to link to.

Late last night (on the East Coast at least) the Golden State Warriors welcomed the Toronto Raptors into Roaracle Arena for a little basketball match.
In a surprise to everyone, the Raptors jumped out to a huge 1st quarter lead, and controlled it the whole 2nd quarter. They even extended the lead in the 3rd quarter, and at the under-six minute timeout, held a 83-58 advantage. Even though the Warriors cut into the edge a little bit, the Raptors still lead by 18 going into the 4th quarter.
But from there, it was all downhill. The Warriors outscored the Raptors, 42-15 in the final frame thanks to eight three-pointers and some brilliant play from Steph Curry, who finished the night with 27 points, 10 assists, and 5 steals. In the midst of the Warriors' furious 4th quarter comeback, Curry provided the most impressive of those 10 assists.
After poking away a pass, Curry collected the loose ball and started up the court. He pushed it up the left hand side, but didn't really have a numbers advantage. Running out ahead of him were only Draymond Green and Klay Thompson.
Thompson, as he is want to do, floated out to the three-point line on the right side. Spotting him, Curry whipped a left-handed pass cross-court right into Thompson's hands. His backcourt mate caught it and knocked down the three to bring the Warriors within five.
If you have any suggestions for a pass we should consider, contact me on Twitter (@jmaloney9) or by email at maloneyj(at)xavier.edu.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo L Android OS 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Phone Technical Specs Unveiled
Sony Ericsson announced the release of Xperia Neo L, their first-ever smartphone model to run Android OS 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) out of the box in China. It's obviously aimed for the Chinese market because this Sony phone has ordinary specs unlike the Sony Xperia Ion 4G LTE Android Smartphone which targets buyers in the US, Canada and Europe. The Xperia Neo L is built with a 1 GHz Qualcomm MSM8255 single-core processor but has an Adreno 205 GPU chip for a decent gaming performance. If you fancy a phone capable of playing 3D games and free downloadable apps, get the Verizon Sony Ericsson Xperia Play Gaming Smartphone but be ready to pay more for the top-notch features of the device.
The technical specs sheet shows it has a 4-inch display that is capacitive and multi-touch with a small screen resolution of 480 x 854 pixels. The 512MB of DDR3 RAM makes it quick enough to handle Android 4.0.3 but I'm not happy with the meager 1GB of built-in storage. You will have to buy a microSD card for more storage. Like the new Sony Xperia S Android Smartphone, the SD card slot of the Xperia Neo L supports up to 32 GB cards.
On the bright side, the Sony Xperia Neo L comes with two cameras. The VGA front camera is ideal for video conferencing while the 5-megapixel camera at the back of the phone is for taking still pictures and it can also record movies up to 720p HD quality. The back camera has autofocus and LED flash.
It has support for WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 EDR, 3G HSPA, DLNA and aGPS. There's a 3.5mm audio jack and the 1500 mAh battery can lasts up to 575 hours of standby time and around 8 hours talk time.
Sony Ericsson has yet to confirm the official release date and pricing info for the Xperia Neo L. Technology Talks will immediately share these facts once they are known.

WASHINGTON -- Identity theft is a growing concern for a group that might not seem likely: Teenagers.
"We're seeing an increased awareness from teens as well as an increased concern," says Jennifer Hanley with the Family Online Safety Institute.
The group is holding its annual conference in D.C. this week at the Ronald Reagan Building and released figures that show teens are more concerned than ever before about the privacy of their personal information online.
"We really want to encourage teens to stop and think about what they're putting out there," says Hanley.
According to a new FOSI study, more than three-quarters of teens say they're "very or somewhat concerned" about online privacy.
One factor leading to the fresh concern is password sharing, according to the report.
"One-third of teens are sharing their passwords," Hanley says. "Teen girls in particular like to give their user names and passwords to friends."
Hanley says teenagers are learning they need to think before they post and utilize privacy settings.

Have you ever seen that movie called "My Best Friend's Wedding" and that scene at her house on the day of her marriage. Jewels is asked by Michael to go speak to Kim about it and they sit down at the table together. Jewels tries to give her an example of Kim being 'Creme Brulee' and what Michael wants and needs is "jello" and goes something like:
Kim: I can be Jello
Jewels: Creme Brulee can never be jello. You are never going to be jello.
Kim: I have to be Jello!
That scene sprang to mind when I was thinking about myself and wanting to identify with my roots. I have never thought of myself as 'western mindset' but as Alaskan Native. I have wondered lately if what I think and feel is similar to what others think and feel and realize it is different in a way. I guess it is because I was raised in a western city that this is so but is kind of unnerving a bit too.
But that scene about the jello sprang to mind when I was trying to picture an image for what I was thinking and feeling. I pictured a strawberry dipped in white chocolate for me instead of the creme brulee like you can see around Valentine's day. And then pictured that scene in my mind when thinking of it from a "native" viewpoint. That sort of idea to just be yourself and I do find it unnerving since these are the kinds of images that do spring to mind for me... When wanting my writing to appeal to Natives too I do get that feeling of the scene and her desperate cry of 'I have to be jello!' and the other saying 'you're never going to be jello.' as my fears about this.
It makes me think of that scene in Shakespeare's play "Much Ado About Nothing" and that line that goes something like "Being none other then as she is, I like her not." But that is not as negative as it sounds since the guy knows his friend is crazy about the girl. So I guess it means, for now at least, that my writing wont appeal so much to other natives until I can learn to write from my heart and have it meant for a native audience instead of a western one. It will be interesting to me if I can accomplish this or not given that the images and such that first spring to mind are western ones... It was really unnerving and upsetting to me last night that I might never be able to do it! Imagine that sort of psycho theme in those horror movies playing right now to capture that sense of suspense I am feeling about it all...
I have to leave for work now..
I think that many of us struggle with our authentic self and our perceived self by the world. Sometimes how we view ourself and how we view what the world thinks we "should" be can be different that what others perceive who we are (based on looks, where we grew up, etc), and this makes a struggle. In your example it seems that your position in society, as growing up in a "western" city is one where you may be expected to present as more western- whereas in your heart you identify as Alaskan Native.
When you said "until I can learn to write from my heart" I feel you were on to something. I think that you need not learn to write from your heart though- you already have that ability within you. Therefore, just let your pre-conceived notions of how you are perceived go, and instead be true to your authentic self.
I hope this was helpful- I look forward to reading more of your writings.
New thought.
I am glad you realize that what you do is enough, and your mind it as ease- it is always especially good when you get to that place by processing your own thoughts. You are a very thoughtful and insightful person.
What you said about using imagery from movies and popular culture I think is something many of us do. I have not even thought about that! Thank you for recognizing it and bringing it up. Westernized pop culture has made people less imaginitive and creative (because we don't have to come up with our own images), in my opinion.
Wow- you have given me a lot to think about. Thank you for your thoughts and insight.
I like the way you
I like the way you introspect. It is really a nice , interesting and probably ab easy way to understand things. looking forward to your conversation with your mom.

Howdy, Stranger!
It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Mercedes-Benz R-Class
My feeling is that if you plan on towing something like a wave runner or 2 that would be ok. The suspension components and rear end are not beefy enough to handle a boat even though the tongue weights are low. There is not a transmission cooler or anything that resembles a towing "package" on the vehicle. Once you put a hitch on one you throw up a red flag. I have seen issues with the 7 speed tranny on sedans. If that should happen to you and you have slapped a hitch on it....... well they are not cheap. In my best judgment, I would say it isn't worth it. Sorry, I know that is not what you wanted to hear.
Benzster, I think that was a reply to the "ordering furniture at Ethan Allan" post and not meant as a response to your post if I followed the response/reply correctly. Your explanation of the towing capabilities of the R-Class and what can be expected if you test fate was dead on in my opinion. The towing crowd should look at the GL Class since their commercials show it towing a House!! among other things. The GL might be pricey, but I like the look of it alot and it sure seems to fit the Haul-everything-in-style niche.
I saw a GL in the flesh (so to speak) today in NYC. Didnt look as big as I expected. Nice design job by MB. Felt sorry for the owner...had a major gash (torn metal) at the back of the rear passenger side wheel well, expending to the bumper. Bummer for a vehicle that probably wasnt more than a few weeks old. :sick:
I concur. To me the GL looks longer and narrower from about 100 feet and looks very muscular as you get close to it. I think it's a winner and if you have seen the commercials all metal flying debris is supposed to just bounce off of it! Man, I wish that were the case with all vehicles. My wife already has a big Doink on the front bumper of her new van by trying to run down my daughter's bike IN THE GARAGE! Even parking assist didn't help.... :sick: Oh well...
His reply was to your response about how his friend has a van that will hold a bunch of office stuff. Your response was along the lines that the R won't but why should you have to do it. My response was, for that one day you must drive that vehicle all year. He said I know and his friend is happy. Good for his friend. I am like you. Deliver it and I will hang in th R all year. He likes his friend's car and I like mine. LET THE MONKEY DELIVER THE FILE CABINETS, and Bob's you uncle!
Chirp, was just looking at the ML350 which has the same motor, transmission, (and frame?), but is a foot shorter and 1 inch taller. Can't imagine that M-B would make a different frame for the ML. M-B makes a hitch for the ML350 with a 5,000 lb towing capacity. What do you think?
Look again! The GL450 uses the 4.6L motor and is the only one available at this point. These are unibody SUV's and not body-on-frame type so they are different. The GL has 3 rows of seating and therein lies the main difference to most buyers. It depends on how much hauling(people and toys) you are likely to do. I think the ML350 and ML500 are both terrific vehicles and when MB gets that diesel in those and the Hybrid assist in the GL look out. Mileage will go up and sales will follow without losing any of the practicality and versatility.
I've never heard of it and the dealer didn't mention it to me. I did not even see any brochures for it. I bought the 'regular' R350 and really like it. Have any of y'all had any problems of any kind with your R350 or R500? I'd like to hear about them so I can avoid those situations that cause those problems.
For those interested in a trailer hitch, there is hope. I have just had my hitch installed and it works fine. First I went to Hidden Hitch, but it did not fit and needs to be re-engineered. Then I went to a Curt trailer hitch, had it installed, and it fits fine. It is rated at 2,500 pound towing capacity which is sufficient for my needs.
Just wanted to let you guys know so that you can tow your small boats, jet skis and other stuff when you go on vacation in your Sports Tourer.
I've had that happen on 2 different cars myself. It's the drain tube for sure and I would turn off the A/C until you get it fixed. Once the carpet picks up that moldy smell it never goes away. It could be worse. When my kids were small one of them dropped a cardboard milk jug on the carpet and before my wife realized what had happened it was too late. Have you ever smelled rancid milk in a carpet? They should be able to fix you up with no problem.
Well, tomorrow came and went. It seems that they don't stock parts in 'bama. The car is permanently parked in the shop, awaiting the blower unit from Stutgart (sp?). Maybe I should have gotten the sushi fridge in the glovebox(ala Volkswagen), rather than the water dispenser.
cary28 Posts: 53I've been shopping around for the right color/options combo, and it looks like my preferred color (Alpine Rain/Ash) does not have the options I want. Available inventory is very limited, since the 2007s are coming, and the only one which has my preferred options come in a Desert Silver/Macadamia color. I want to take advantage of the current $5K incentive, since the 2007s will cost more when they come out in Oct. For those who has this color combo, can you tell me if the interior stays clean? Is the Macadamia too "yellow" as this is a classic MB interior color from the sixties. I'll like to hear your experiences after living with this color combo. Thanks for sharing.

Mired in what is officially a nightmarish recall fiasco, Toyota's getting gang-tackled as it wraps up a really bad week. General Motors, smelling blood in the water, is offering incentives specifically targeting Toyota drivers through the end of February. Likewise, Ford is adding $1,000 to the trade-ins of any Toyota, Lexus, or Scion (as well as Acura and Honda, for good measure). Rental fleets are yanking Toyotas from circulation. The House of Representatives will officially
And now, here comes Hyundai, leaping into the scrum from the top rope like Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka.
The Detroit News reports that like GM and Ford, Hyundai's now offering $1,000 to customers who trade their Toyota in for a Sonata, Elantra, or Elantra Touring. Unike GM and Ford, Hyundai is only running the incentives through next Monday. Meanwhile, Chrysler could reportedly follow suit next week. Honda, for its part, has flatly stated that it is staying out of the feeding frenzy, and won't be targeting Toyota customers with specific incentives.

Energy Predictions 2010
Energy Predictions 2010 is the first in an annual series of predictions reports to be published by the Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Global Energy & Resources group. These predictions were developed based on in-depth interviews with clients, industry analysts, and the most senior energy practitioners from Deloitte member firms. The report is being released at a time when many economies – both developed and developing – are emerging from one of the deepest global recessions in the last 50 years. Given the number of challenges to be faced by the energy sector in 2010, this particular set of predictions is both timely and insightful.
View the video to preview this report.
Energy companies may play a more active role in the cap-and-trade debate by developing their own sector-specific carbon trading scheme as a way to mitigate policymakers' attempts at legislation that is largely being regarded as a piecemeal approach to comprehensive issues.
Oil & gas companies – both international oil companies (IOCs) and national oil companies (NOCs) – will face particularly difficult issues in the year ahead. Mergers and acquisitions activity is likely to begin to rebound in 2010 and attain pre-recession levels by 2011. Independents and junior oil companies will continue to struggle as the recession severely impacts cash flow. These companies are likely to become acquisition targets over the next year. There are likely to be limited amounts of M&A activity within the super major ranks as these firms hold onto their cash and maintained capital expenditure programs during the downturn. NOC-to-NOC transactions will continue to increase as these firms share cultural similarities and political goals. Finally, examples of 'employment nationalism' are beginning to appear in such areas as Venezuela, Russia, Africa, and the Middle East as western oil companies will be told to hire from the local population as opposed to the best available candidate.
Power and utilities companies will face their own issues. The most important of these is the continued rise of the Smart Grid. Smart Grids have the potential to revolutionize the power sector. The average efficiency of the world's existing electricity grids is only around 33 percent versus 60 percent based on the latest technology. Smart Grids have the potential to reduce energy consumption by up to 30 percent and decrease the need to construct new power plants. Pressure to resolve the coal conundrum will intensify as coal is one of the most abundant sources of energy. Commercial-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies may provide the answer although generation efficiency suffers. Energy efficiency – long touted as the 'silver bullet' solution – will grow from optional to essential. In the U.S., the unprecedented amount of stimulus money available to both consumers and businesses will shift the emphasis over the next few years from building more generation capacity to using power much more wisely.
Renewable energy production will heat up in two places synonymous with fossil fuels: the Middle East and North Africa. The geographic and demographic conditions are just right for a new type of renewable energy leadership. These regions have ideal weather conditions – intensely hot with significant sea breezes during the day – as well as close proximity to the developed population centers of Europe where much of the energy production will be used.
A global economic turnaround is beginning to take shape but what shape will it take? This is perhaps the most important issue for energy companies to deal with. Many economists are predicting a "W-shaped" recovery. In this scenario, overall economic growth experiences a modest upturn but the economy remains weak in certain segments.
Energy Predictions 2010 is a must read for energy companies, policy makers, and anyone with an interest in today's energy challenges.

John Kerry on Crime
Jr Senator (MA), Democratic nominee for President
ANALYSIS: A Club for Growth ad accurately cites that Kerry once opposed the death penalty for terrorists and now supports it. During a 1996 Senate campaign debate, Kerry said anti-death penalty countries wouldn't allow the US to extradite suspected terrorists: "the death penalty would amount to a terrorist protection policy. My policy would put them in jail." In 2002 he said, "I support killing people who declare war on our country, just as I was prepared to kill people personally & collectively in Vietnam." Kerry still opposes the death penalty in other cases. His explanation is that he responded to changed facts [of 9-11]
KERRY: Correct.
Q: So a person who kills a 5-year-old should live?
KERRY: My instinct is to want to strangle that person with my own hands. I understand the instincts, I really do. I prosecuted people. I know what the feeling of the families is and everybody else. But we have 111 people who have been now released from death row -- death row, let alone the rest of the prison system -- because of DNA evidence that showed they didn't commit the crime of which they were convicted. Our system has made mistakes, and it's been applied in a way that I think is wrong. Secondly, most of the other nations in the world, have adopted that idea, that the state should not engage in killing, because they have very bad memories of what happens when the state engages in killing.
A: I oppose the death penalty other than in cases of real international and domestic terrorism. We know we have put innocent people to death; 111 innocent people have already been released from death row. As president, I'll enforce the law but I'll also have a national moratorium on federal executions until we use DNA evidence to make sure those on death row are guilty.
Over time, we noted the declining importance of ideology and the growing importance of mafias. We realized that cross-border international drug traffickers and money launderers, terrorists, and smugglers had become a security threat for the United States--and indeed, for the world.
Crime has changed. In strategy, sophistication, and reach, the criminal organizations of the late 20th century function like transnational corporations and make the gangs of the past look like mom-and-pop operations.
Or ours. America's complicity as consumers does nothing for the moral health of our republic. It weakens our immunity to corruption, as innumerable police bribery cases have painfully demonstrated. And having pointed out that Colombia is on the State Department's list of top 20 money-laundering countries, I would be unfair not to mention that the US also belongs to that elite club.
Organized transnational crime threatens America's interests, well-being, and national security both from within and without. It can be an agent of disturbance on the international scene--by thwarting Russia's democracy or upsetting China's stability.
Proponents recommend voting YES because:
This amendment reinstates the COPS Program. I remind everyone, when the COPS Program was functioning, violent crime in America reduced 8.5% a year for 7 years in a row. Throughout the 1990s, we funded the COPS Program at roughly $1.2 billion, and it drove down crime. Now crime is rising again. The COPS Program in the crime bill worked, and the Government Accounting Office found a statistical link between the COPS grants and a reduction in crime. The Brookings Institution reported the COPS Program is one of the most cost-effective programs we have ever had in this country. Local officials urgently need this support.
Opponents recommend voting NO because:
The COPS Program has some history. It was started by President Clinton. He asked for 100,000 police officers. He said that when we got to 100,000, the program would stop. We got to 110,000 police officers and the program continues on and on and on.
This program should have ended 5 years ago or 6 years ago, but it continues. It is similar to so many Federal programs that get constituencies that go on well past what their original purpose was. It may be well intentioned, but we cannot afford it and we shouldn't continue it. It was never thought it would be continued this long.
CURE (Citizens United for Rehabilitation of Errants) is a membership organization of families of prisoners, prisoners, former prisoners and other concerned citizens. CURE's two goals are
Title: To provide Federal assistance to States and local jurisdictions to prosecute hate crimes.
Summary: Provide technical, forensic, prosecutorial, or other assistance in the criminal investigation or prosecution of any violent crime that is motivated by prejudice based on the race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or disability of the victim or is a violation of hate crime laws.
Title: To reduce the risk that innocent persons may be executed.
