Garfield's going through ice cream withdrawal
It's time for the ice cream truck!
My ice cream man comes round on days when it's under fifty degrees and dark out. It's just weird
I dont see icecream trucks anymore…I remember when they were all clean white trucks with the guys in clean white uniforms, after awhile they were pretty tacky, both trucks and drivers…so it's best just to stock up your own frigg. Garfield…it's not as fun, but safer..
'Tis usually in the summertime when I hear the sound of those small ice cream trucks driving through the complex where we live. If my memory's atall correct the tune they play is called Turkey in the Straw?
Tá ag gach duine Lá Fhéile Pádraig Shona!
tunasicles, yuummm!
We don't have Good Humor as an ice cream seller in England but the same seems to apply. Most of the vans seem to smell strongly of diesel and are very tatty looking. I'm sure that wasn't the case when I was a kid. Doesn't stop me queuing up every now and then though.

We have an ice cream truck that goes right by our building. The prices are outrageous, the ice cream man looks very questionable, and the truck has definitely seen better days. They also come buy right at dinnertime.
I know of a very good ice cream shop; trouble is it's in Thailand.
A shame. I think they'd notice if I took time off work to nip over there for a 99 Thai style.
Go to the Dairy Queen (DQ) we have one down the road and the owner thought winter would be a hard sales time, however that was not the case. It is -11c right now and the DQ is still doing a strong business.
To Joe Susan Joe and Tog:
I miss the Good Humor truck too. I know what you mean about the trucks. I have seen some which are used small modified school busses. The only one I would buy off of is a Mr. Softee truck. That is the closest to Good Humor I remember.
Keep your super hearing peeled for danger, Superman/. LOL.

Update on the latest in sports:
Hoosiers lead the way
UNDATED (AP) — Top-ranked Indiana leads the way in college basketball this evening. The 24-3 Hoosiers are facing the Golden Gophers at Minnesota. In this week's poll, which was released yesterday, Indiana was one vote shy of being a unanimous No. 1 pick. The Hoosiers are occupying the top spot for a fourth straight week and 10th time this season.
Rounding out the rest of tonight's schedule, No. 8 Florida is at Tennessee, 17th-ranked Wisconsin is home to Nebraska and Memphis, the 19th-ranked school, is on the road for a game at Xavier (ZAYV'-yur).
Eight game schedule in pro hoops
UNDATED (AP) — Miami and Indiana, the top two teams in the Eastern Conference of the NBA, are in action tonight. The Heat will put their 40-14 record up against visiting Sacramento, while the 35-21 Pacers are home to Golden State. The Heat start the night with an 11-game winning streak, tops in the NBA right now. On the home floor Miami is almost unbeatable with wins in 24 of their 27 games.
The Clippers are almost as good at home as they are 22-6. Tonight the Clips are playing host to Charlotte.
By the way, there are four teams with at least 40 wins in the NBA and the Clippers and Heat are two of them. The other two are San Antonio and Oklahoma City.
The rest of tonight's card has Orlando playing at Philadelphia, Chicago at home to Cleveland, Brooklyn at New Orleans, the Bucks in Dallas against the Mavs and Minnesota at Phoenix.
An off night for the league's top team
UNDATED (AP) — The story in the NHL isn't so much who is playing tonight, it's who is not. The amazing Chicago Blackhawks have the night off after racking up two more points last night. The Blackhawks stretched their NHL-record season-opening point streak to 19 games with a comeback win against the visiting Edmonton Oilers. The Hawks have won six straight and nine of 10. They are 16-0-3 on the season, good for 35 points and the lead in the Western Conference and the Central Division.
As far as tonight's schedule is concerned Pittsburgh can take over first place in the Eastern Conference with a win over Florida. The Penguins start the day a point back of idle Montreal. In the Atlantic Division Pittsburgh leads New Jersey by two points. The Devils have the night off as well.
There could be change at the top of the Southeast Division as the two teams tied for the lead are in action. Both Carolina and Tampa Bay have 19 points and the Hurricanes are at Washington tonight while the Lightning are home to Buffalo.
The rest of the schedule has Dallas at Columbus, the Rangers home to Winnipeg, the Islanders home to Boston, Calgary at Minnesota, Phoenix at Vancouver and San Jose home to Colorado.
Basketball Hall of Famer visiting isolated country
PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — Dennis Rodman is doing his part for world peace.
The former NBA All-Star and Basketball Hall of Famer is in North Korea with three members of the Harlem Globetrotters for a video being produced for HBO. The man behind the project says the Americans hope to engage in some "basketball diplomacy."
When shown a photo of Rodman with piercings hanging from his lower lip and two massive chest tattoos, one North Korean said, "he looks like a monster."

A suicide bomber has struck police headquarters in the capital of Helmand province, killing 12 Afghan policemen and a child in a city where Afghans have recently taken control of security.
The attack in the heart of Lashkar Gah on Sunday was a reminder of the Taliban's reach, even at a time of stepped up pressure from US and Afghan troops.
Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi claimed responsibility for the attack, according to news agencies.
Helmand provincial spokesman Daoud Ahmadi said police guarding the gate received the worst of the blast, but three civilians were among the 12 wounded.
"It was a suicide car bomb and was very powerful," said Ahmadi.
Ahmadi added that the blast happened in front of the heavily-secured office of the police chief as a police vehicle entered the compound.
A wall of the compound also collapsed in the explosion and it was unclear if anyone was trappedunderneath, Ahmadi said. People at the site told reporters they saw a police vehicle on fire at the gate.
Taliban stronghold
The latest blast follows an uptick in assassinations in southern Afghanistan in recent weeks, including that of President Hamid Karzai's powerful half-brother, Ahmed Wali Karzai, in neighbouring Kandahar province.
It has been less than two weeks since Lashkar Gah was formally handed over to Afghan control in the first stage of a plan to have all of Afghanistan under the oversight of Afghan security forces by the end of 2014.
It is the capital city of a province that has been a stronghold of the Taliban and where US Marines have surged in over the past year to try to turn back their fighters.
The attack comes as Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, tours Afghanistan for a second day.
He has been meeting with military commanders and troops in the south, a region that has been rocked by violence and suicide attacks in recent weeks.

Fire Station 12 receives 'green' endorsement
Henrico County's Fire Station 12 recently received LEED Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council in recognition of extensive energy-saving measures incorporated into its renovation and expansion.
The fire station is Henrico's second general government facility to receive LEED certification and the first to be recognized at the Gold level — the second highest possible — under a policy backed by the Board of Supervisors in January 2010.
The fire station reopened in July 2011 following a $1.86 million renovation and expansion. The project satisfied LEED standards by reusing an existing building; recycling more than 30 tons of wood, brick, metal and other materials; and incorporating other energy-saving features. Those include low flow toilets and sinks, high-efficiency washing machines and a hybrid heating and air-conditioning system that minimizes energy use. The fire station also has high-efficiency windows and skylights that provide ample natural light and a white roof that reflects heat to reduce cooling costs.
LEED, which stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, establishes a benchmark for the design, construction and operation of "green" buildings. It balances some increased costs for design and construction against greater long-term savings from more efficient use of water and energy and other benefits, such as improved air quality.
Fire Station 12, at 3808 West End Drive, first opened in 1974. Its renovation and expansion increased the building's size from 6,700 to 10,550 square feet and provided an extended two-bay drive-through garage that accommodates a ladder truck, engine, ambulance and vehicle for the emergency medical services battalion chief. The fire station also has a shop and storage room and is equipped with an emergency generator capable of powering the station for three days without refueling.
The fire station is the second Henrico general government building to qualify for LEED certification. In May, the Glen Allen Branch Library was recognized at the Silver level. Henrico is pursuing LEED certification for other buildings, including the renovated Gayton Branch Library on Gayton Road and the Eastern Henrico Recreation Center on North Laburnum Avenue.

A gift that should stop giving
'Jingle All the Way 2' is expectedly flawed
Was anyone asking for an extra-large helping of Larry the Cable Guy this Christmas? If so, you can thank Santa Claus for Jingle All the Way 2.
If not, you can be like the rest of us and curse Santa for his folly in creating such a film. Santa, we neither wanted nor needed this.
A follow-up to the much-derided 1996 Christmas film Jingle All the Way, Jingle All the Way 2 isn't so much a sequel as it is an odd kind of remake, offering a few original twists on the original's dad-vs-dad holiday showdown, but also copying large chunks of the original without alteration. > Read more.

Have Yourself a Vodka Latke Party
My favorite holiday memories revolve around my mother's Hanukkah parties.
Three generations of Americans, Israelis, and Russians gathered in our small home by moonlight, their stories and voices and accents braiding together.
Old Hanukkah tapes would play, the almost-twangy music filling the spaces between food and loud and food and talk and food and fun.
Latkes were eaten, sufganiyot were devoured, and more than a few dreidels were spun.
My memories of these parties are golden, and their lesson equally bright: Hanukkah is meant to be a celebration. A fun one.
Today, my husband Jason and I are ready to create our own version of my mother's parties for our (adult!) friends, with a twist.
Enter: The Vodka Latke Party. Read the rest of this entry →

Nathan Caton
Nathan is a young black British comic, gigging on both the mainstream and black comedy circuit. His set is highly obsevational, influenced by his culture and upbringing, and also coming from a young person's outlook on life, from the well-known Nigerian traffic warden and the always-disciplining West-Indian mother, to MTV's Pimp my Ride.
'Excellent story-telling skills keep the crowd easily entertained' (Three Weeks)
'Caton is probably the most exciting young black comic on the scene' (Fest Magazine)
'Caton's a slick performer with an unbeatable stage attitude and the confident air of someone much more experienced' (Chortle)
'Compelling, well-observed stand-up... He specialises in laidback, on-the-nose material, chopping down fools of all colours, both in day-to-day life and in the media' (The Guardian).
Nathan Caton tour dates
Adam Bloom
One of the most sought-after acts in the country. Perrier Award Nominee and Polygram Award winner for best stand-up at the Edinburgh Festival. Undoubtedly one of Britain's sharpest comic brains....all this and he doesn't swear.
Adam Bloom tour dates
Loretta Maine
Psycho-intense singer-songwriter Loretta Maine makes Courtney Love look well-balanced. This pill-popping, booze-abusing, bunny-boiling car-crash of a rock star has been the most memorable creation of talented character comic Pippa Evans to date, and is now promoted to both her own show and her own band, Dog Vagina.
Loretta Maine tour dates
Dave Ward
Welsh punster and resident MC at The Hawth Comedy Club.
'A friendly, upbeat comic with a cynicism that gives his comedy a unique gentle bite' (Pontardawe Arts Centre).

Kevin Federline is not kidding around. Britney Spears and her cousin/friend/assistant, Alli Sims, were hanging out at a party Saturday night, when Alli was suddenly served with legal papers concerning the custody battle between Brit and K-Fed. Alli was on her way out of the party in the Hollywood Hills (Brit was still inside) when she was served by Aaron Cohen of IMS-Security. "Alli was really shocked and covered her face," a witness told PEOPLE. "[She was] really distraught and said 'Oh my God.' "
Britney, who's said to be furious, left the party minutes later, and met up with Alli back at Brit's home. Kevin, who has just recently filed papers seeking primary custody of their sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, is looking for Brit's best pal to take the stand and testify about the star's mothering skills. Us Weekly spoke to a source close to the custody case who says K-Fed's lawyers will use Alli to strengthen their case. They plan to "ask her about everything. What she feeds the kids, what's going in the bottles, how late they're staying up and about what Britney is like when she parties."
This is not going to be good for Britney -- at all. For more on Britney's custody battle, watch Daily Blabber TV.

For the second year in a row, the Fourth of July could be a big day in building the Charlotte Hornets roster.
A year ago center Al Jefferson agreed to terms with the then-Bobcats, and went on to make third-team All-NBA. On Friday Utah Jazz free agent Gordon Hayward agreed to come to Charlotte for a visit early next week.
A 6-foot-8 forward-guard from Butler, Hayward is a restricted free agent. That means the Jazz could match any other teams offer to Hayward and retain him.
The Cleveland Cavaliers brought Hayward in for a visit this week, but were reportedly reluctant about providing him an offer sheet, on the reasoning the Jazz might match any offer.
The Hornets need a wing shooter-scorer, and Hayward, 24, fits that description. He averaged 16.2 points, 5.2 assists and 5.1 rebounds last season. His field-goal percentage slipped from 43.4 percent in the 2012-13 season to 41.3 percent last season, but that in part reflects the struggles the 25-57 Jazz had after Jefferson signed in Charlotte and power forward Paul Millsap signed with the Atlanta Hawks.
Jefferson and Hayward are friends from their time together in Salt Lake City. Jefferson said at his news conference, announcing his All-NBA selection, that he planned to recruit other players to Charlotte.
Point guard Kemba Walker recruited Jefferson last spring, warming him up for the presentation the Bobcats made in free-agency last July. Jefferson averaged 21.8 points and 10.8 rebounds, leading the franchise to just their second playoff appearance since the Bobcats inception in 2004.
A player of Haywards perimeter skills could enhance Jeffersons low-post game, discouraging opposing teams from double-teaming aggressively. The 43-39 Hornets were among the NBAs weaker shooting teams last season, finishing bottom-third in a 30-team league in field-goal percentage, free-throw percentage and 3-point percentage.
While Hornets starting small forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is a fine defender, he doesnt provide spacing with his shooting range. He took just nine 3-pointers last season, making one.
If Hayward decides he wants to be a Hornet, NBA rules could complicate the process. The Hornets couldnt sign him to an offer sheet before July 10 when the NBAs annual moratorium ends and the new salary-cap year commences. The Jazz would then have up to three days with the option to match Charlottes offer and retain Hayward.
The Hornets can assemble at least $15 million in cap space once they complete a pre-arranged deal with the Cavaliers. The Hornets will send the draft rights to Stanford forward Dwight Powell (selected 45th overall) to Cleveland. In return the Cavs will absorb the $2 million the Hornets owe center Brendan Haywood. The Hornets will get forward Alonzo Gee, whose contract is not guaranteed for next season.
The Jazz has sent out signals it intends to match any offer for Hayward. However, Utah drafted Duke small forward Rodney Hood, who is of similar size and skill set to Hayward, so Utah could be preparing for eventualities.
The most any team other than the Jazz can offer Hayward is $63 million over four seasons. The Jazz could offer Hayward as much as $85 million over five seasons.
There is an option aside from an offer sheet. The Hornets could approach the Jazz about a sign-and-trade to acquire Hayward. The Hornets have all their future first-round picks, plus cap space and young players, so its conceivable they could assemble a package the Jazz would consider.
Twice previously the Bobcats signed players to offer sheets and both were matched: Anderson Varejao returned to Cleveland and Carl Landry returned to the Houston Rockets.
The Hornets continue negotiations to re-sign power forward Josh McRoberts and are looking for a backup point guard. The Hornets contacted the agents for ex-Bobcat Ramon Sessions Friday.
Sessions, an unrestricted free agent, said in March hed enjoy returning to Charlotte. The Bobcats traded him to the Milwaukee Bucks in February in the deal that acquired Gary Neal and Luke Ridnour.

So here we are. Here I am. Marathon number 7. Giddy up. New race (Hartford). New state (CT). New adventure. Same age category (35-39). Same socks (New Balance). Same awesome running partner (KH). Why do I keep running marathons? When I think about it, the main reasons never change. I love to run. I love the rush. I love the challenge. I love the pain. I hate all those things, too, but not always and never at the same time. Do I want the PR? Hell, yeah! But that's not my main goal this time around. Through this training cycle, my mental state has shifted. I have reached back and tapped into the simple joy of running. On Saturday, I'm running to remind myself how lucky I am that I get to do this. It's my choice. I choose to train. I choose to push myself. I choose to do it again. I choose. I'm ready. Let's ride!Listen to this:Black Out Days - Phantogram
That's the spirit - running is supposed to be fun (and joy)! well said!
Fun first... the PRs will follow automatically
"Glory is Fleeting, Anonymity is Forever"
Speed+Pavement = a fling
Distance+Trails = True Love
Good luck on Saturday.
Good luck and have a great race!
Many thanks!
Enjoy that marathon! Love your attitude!
Thx will do everything I can do make the most of it! Cheers.
I gain a little running wisdom every time I read your posts. Good luck!
I LOVE that! Makes it all worthwhile. Big thanks! Rock on.
Nice! Will keep my eyes peeled. Cheers!

"Fantastic...just as it is. I made this recently for my 50th B-day Party. I got one bite from a friends plate because the bowl was cleaned out before I could get a full serving."
"Trinkets came in town this weekend for my 50th B-Day party and we cooked up a storm. We fixed this with Grilled FrenchSalmon, Haricot Verts and a Hearts of Palm Salad. What an amazing menu. THis recipe is undoubtedly the best Sweet Potatoe recipe ever."
"Absolutely amazing. THis would also be great tossed with some Pasta for a cold dish."
"Absolutely the best! The Rosemary gives it a nice punch and you can never have enough Garlic.Thanks Trinkets"
"This was o.k. I did need to doctor up a bit because I thought it was just way too watery. When I make again, I will substitute Vegetable Broth for water and add more half and half and tomato sauce."
"THis is not a rating but a reply to the previous comment. Forever my mother, who was born and raised in New Orleans, made Turkey Gumbo just like this. My Grandmothers, also born and raised in New Orleans made their Seafood Gumbo similarly."
"This was my first attempt at bread and it turned out great. A Winner."
"This was good but I had to make my own Garlic and Herb Butter because I couln't find what was called for. It probablt is better with what is actually called for."
"What a winner. I adjusted the serving potyion to 1 and it worked great. This was a treat. I served with a little angel Hair Pasta and Asparagus."
"This is absolutely the best way to fix carrots. Very easy and in the last 15 minutes when you add the garlic, I added some Asparagus and red onion to the tray and it worked out as a great medley."

Fort Washington Cocaine Dealer Sentenced to 10 Years in Prison
Greenbelt, Maryland - Chief U.S. District Judge Deborah K. Chasanow sentenced Peter Purvis, Jr., age 45, of Fort Washington, Maryland, today to 10 years in prison, followed by five years of supervised release, for conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute cocaine and crack cocaine.
The sentence was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein and Special Agent in Charge Ava Cooper-Davis of the Drug Enforcement Administration - Washington Field Division.
According to Purvis' guilty plea, from February 2007 through February 2009, Purvis was part of a Suitland, Maryland-based drug trafficking organization. From March to July, 2008, Purvis was overheard by law enforcement in weekly drug-related conversations with co-conspirators. On February 25, 2009, a search warrant was executed at Purvis's residence in the 2300 block of Pioneer Court in Fort Washington and agents seized approximately 18 grams of crack, which was packaged for further distribution; $1,244 in cash, which represented the proceeds of prior drug transactions; and drug packaging paraphernalia. Purvis has admitted that he is responsible for the distribution of between 11 and 33 pounds of cocaine.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein commended the Drug Enforcement Administration for their work in the investigation. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant United States Attorneys Barbara Skalla, Christen Sproule and Adam Ake, who prosecuted this Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force case.

Ga. Woman hiding with twins shoots home intruder
ATLANTA - A Georgia woman hiding with her children in her attic, shot an intruder five times before fleeing to safety.
The incident happened Friday afternoon in Loganville, reported ABC affiliate WSB-TV.
The woman was working in an upstairs office when she spotted a strange man outside a window, according to Walton County Sheriff Joe Chapman. He said she took her 9-year-old twins to a crawlspace before the man broke into the home, using a crowbar.
"The perpetrator opens that door. Of course, at that time he's staring at her, her two children and a .38 revolver," Chapman told WSB-TV.
The woman then shot him five times, but he survived, Chapman said. He said the woman ran out of bullets but threatened to shoot the intruder if he moved.
The woman ran to a neighbor's home with her children. The intruder attempted to flee in his car but crashed into a wooded area and collapsed in a nearby driveway, Chapman said.
Deputies arrested 32-year-old Atlanta resident Paul Slater in connection with the crime. Slater was taken to Gwinnett Medical Center for treatment. Chapman said Slater was shot in the face and neck.

What follows are some rules for how to live the rest of your life. They're from an article by Janet Sternberg in ETC: A Review of General Semantics. Most of them she attributes to a New York University professor, Neil Postman.
Now, these are rules to help you live in a decadent and decaying society, a fit description of America 2006. Some of them are facetious, but some are full of wisdom.
For example, don't move to California. California practiced limp-wristed liberalism and is presently reaping what it sowed. Southern California now goes by the name of Mexifornia. Mexifornia has a lousy school system, too many people, too much development, bad air, high taxes and too much crime. Who needs it?
Another good rule is, do not watch TV news or read tabloid newspapers. Ms. Sternberg writes: "Life, as it is, is terrifying enough. Only a fool would expose himself or herself to an exaggeration of the danger." She is exactly right. You will find no useful information in TV news or tabloids. They are both corrupt.
Another rule is not to read any books by people who call themselves futurists, such as Alvin Toffler. They are, she says, up on technology but ignorant of human beings, and therefore are always wrong in their predictions. I agree. I spotted Toffler as a pretentious windbag the first (and last) time I read him.
Still another good rule is to establish as many routines as possible so you only have to think and make decisions about significant matters. Two rules that go together are these: Limit the amount of information you absorb, and seek significance in your work, friends and family.
Information used to be a survival necessity, but now it's just a commodity, says Sternberg. How true that is. Literally tons of information are blasted at us from every conceivable media — most of it lies trying to sell us something, and much of it about things over which we have no control. It's only with our personal work, our friends and our family that we can actually have some effect.
I go even further and suggest that for good psychological health, people should turn off the TV and radio and cancel any newspaper and magazine subscriptions. Andrew Lytle, a Southern novelist, lived like that and told me, "If anything important happens, I'll hear about it by rumor." To paraphrase an old newspaper slogan, 99 percent of the news you don't need to know.
Of course, that would put me out of business, but I learned a long time ago that just because you give people advice doesn't mean they are going to take it.
Another rule is, limit the subjects on which you have an opinion. As she says, we all have the right to have an opinion about everything, but there are some things we just aren't qualified to have an opinion about. Again, that's true. There are certain areas of the world I never write about because I do not have sufficient background knowledge of those areas to have an opinion.
Opinions, if they are to have any value, have to be based on knowledge and experience. That's why we don't ask the plumber for his opinion about our health and don't call the doctor when the dishwasher leaks.
The purpose of all of these rules is to help us live in peace and harmony. There is no point in worrying about anything that is inevitable. There is no point in worrying about anything over which we have no control. And, as the Roman stoic Epictetus reminds us, the only thing we can really control are our own thoughts.

Review of the 2008 Lincoln Navigator L
The 2008 Lincoln Navigator L is a big and opulent SUV for folks who need a lot of room and want a lot of luxury in a chrome-heavy package. However, its underwhelming performance leaves it one step behind its Escalade ESV rival.

Full 2008 Lincoln Navigator L Review
What's New for 2008
The 2008 Lincoln Navigator L is now offered in only one trim level, with previously optional equipment now standard, including heated and cooled front seats, a power-folding third-row seat and the THX premium sound system. A much-needed rearview camera is now available.
In certain ways, humans haven't come much farther than our mastodon-hunting, cave-dwelling forbears. Despite a million or so years of countless advances, shiny objects still have a tendency to leave us mesmerized and strangely impressed. The 2008 Lincoln Navigator L was apparently designed with this principle in mind, because its massive grille attracts attention (for better or worse) like a Las Vegas marquee advertising a $5 steak dinner and Wayne Newton Live! Some will probably find the 'Gator's colossal, chrome-plated front end as tasteful as that marquee, but Lincoln is hoping this sort of brash styling statement will appeal to the types of buyers who have made the Cadillac Escalade ESV such a success.
The Navigator first set sail in 1998 and was the first full-size luxury SUV from a domestic-brand manufacturer. Essentially a Ford Expedition in a tuxedo, the 'Gator inspired a slew of competitors that gradually overtook it in refinement, interior quality and the number of references in rap songs. Introduced last year in conjunction with major updates to the Navigator in general, the long-wheelbase L model is meant to recapture some of the lost attention and sales. Compared to the standard-size model, the Navigator L offers an extra 24 cubic feet of cargo space behind its third-row seat.
This is certainly the biggest, best and shiniest Navigator yet, and we like its quiet ride, relatively low pricing and long list of standard features. However, as large luxury SUVs go, the 2008 Lincoln Navigator L wouldn't be our top pick. The extended-length Caddy offers more performance and better handling, while smaller full-sizers like the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class and Infiniti QX56 make compelling cases as well if you don't need quite that much space.
Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2008 Lincoln Navigator L is an extended-wheelbase full-size luxury SUV offered with rear- and four-wheel-drive. There is only one loaded trim level available. It includes 18-inch wheels, parking sensors and a slew of power features including extending running boards, a rear liftgate, a folding third-row seat, leather upholstery, adjustable pedals, a tilt-telescoping steering wheel and 10-way front seats with heating, cooling and memory. There are also a second-row center console, rear-seat climate control and a THX-certified 14-speaker audio system with six-CD changer, satellite radio and auxiliary jack.
Options include 20-inch wheels, a sunroof, upgraded leather seats with contrasting piping, and a tow package. The Elite Package bundles a rearview camera, rear-seat DVD entertainment and a navigation system. A Monochrome Limited Edition package cuts down on some of the exterior's chrome trim and adds unique interior trim.
Powertrains and Performance
The Navigator L is powered by the same 5.4-liter V8 that drives other Ford trucks. It's good for 300 horsepower and 365 pound-feet of torque, and sends its power through a six-speed automatic transmission. While 300 horses may sound like a full stable, the Navigator L's hefty curb weight keeps it from feeling sprightly. When equipped with the towing package, this full-size SUV can pull up to 8,800 pounds with rear-wheel drive and 8,600 pounds with four-wheel drive. Because the Navigator L weighs more than 6,000 pounds, it does not qualify for EPA fuel economy testing; the lighter, regular-length Navigator rates 12 mpg city/17 mpg highway for 2008.
Lincoln offers a comprehensive list of standard safety features for its flagship SUV, including stability control with a rollover sensor, antilock disc brakes with brake assist and traction control. Airbag coverage includes front-seat side airbags and three-row side curtain airbags. In National Highway Traffic Safety Administration crash tests, the Navigator received five out of five stars for its protection of front occupants in head-on collisions.
Interior Design and Special Features
The 2008 Navigator L's interior looks like Lincoln traveled back in time, collected some of its designers from 1975 and brought them back to the future to fashion the retro cabin with modern, premium-grade materials. The classic split dash evokes past Lincolns, and the square gauges look as if they were removed wholesale from a '77 Continental Mark V.
Beyond aesthetics, the Navigator L has an immense amount of passenger and cargo space. With the available second-row bench seat, maximum passenger capacity is eight people. The power-folding third-row seat is large enough that full-size adults can actually sit back there, and even when it's up, there are still 42.7 cubic feet of cargo capacity available. When you need more than that, the third row folds in a convenient 60/40 split, yielding 86.3 cubic feet of space. With all the rear seats out of the way, there are an impressive 128.2 cubes -- second only to the Escalade ESV among luxury SUVs.
Driving Impressions
The 5.4-liter V8 is responsive, but no one would call the 2008 Lincoln Navigator L quick. The six-speed automatic serves up smooth shifts, but hunts a bit more than we'd like in passing situations. Ride quality is smooth and comfortable, and the cabin is well insulated from noise on the highway. Considering that it weighs more than 6,000 pounds, the big 'Gator offers surprisingly secure and predictable handling around corners, although it's still a big vehicle and demands that you respect it as such. The same applies in tight urban parking situations, where its more than 18-foot length makes maneuvering into parking spots feel like piloting the Carnival Crown Princess into port.

Top 17 Gorillamask Spank Bank Hotties of 2011 (So Far)
Every day, the fine gentlemen over at Gorillamask.net hook us up with a different non-nude (non-nude as in, they're technically wearing something) hottie. So, since it gets pretty daunting to keep up with them all, here's the year's roundup in the hottest, greatest and most memorable "Spank Bank" posts by GorillaMask this year (so far).
The List
Rank Name
- 1
The Star Wars BabeFirst of all, if you're feeling brave, here's the full collection of GorillaMask's "Spank Bank" section , in all its glory. Now to the best of the year so far...
This wonderful young woman gets top billing (as of the beginning of this list) because a Gorillamask fan decided to grace us all with her presence (and more importantly, her body) after their webmaster complained about no hot girls ever sending pictures into the site.
I was recently pouting that no hot chicks ever send sexy pictures like they do to other sites and then, lo and behold, Jesus sent these out of nowhere proving that he really is there when you need him the most. Her message: "In response to your web link, 'Hot Chicks in Star Wars Shirts,' here's some photos I just took. :)"
So, this girl gets the first tip of the hat for being a fellow Gorillamask fan and for a set of pictures that can only be described in one way:
But the burning question everyone has had since remains: will we ever get to see her face?
Only time (and this girl) will tell.
- 2Susan Coffey makes the cut because she's not quite famous, but she's one of those girls who you've seen a billion times if you're kind of a pervert and you click on anything that looks like it might have a naked or hot chick on it (in other words, you've seen her before).
She's a classically beautiful girl with an ambiguous natural hair color (although sources in my dreams tell me she's a natural redhead and that the carpet matches Bruce Willis's drapes) who graces internet forums, pictorials all over the place, and of course, Model Mayhem.
The kind folks over at Gorillamask were smart enough to put together some insanely hot pictures of this girl in this amazing set of Susan Coffey in various stages of undress.

MeganMegan has made multiple appearances on the Spank Bank this year, and with good reason. She looks just like that hot chick you hooked up with in college at a party that one time that was waaaaaaayyyy out of your league. You never saw her again, but that memory lives on forever since you never had to get to know her.
This is the set that puts her on this list. She's being hot and baring it all by a pool (well, almost all of it).
This is probably what she wears to bed (when she's not wearing just a smile... or shame).
And finally, this is what (I hope) she wears to work. I want this to be a conservative outfit for her. That would be awesome. This is something that I want.
- 4
Kylie JadeKylie Jade looks really hot, kind of insecure and pretty much like she doesn't want to be there (aka, Kylie Jade reminds me of most of my sexual experiences) in this set. She eventually warms up to the camera and exhibits a confident smile with a perfect body and that little extra something that lets you know that somebody's home.
Here's the full set from Kylie Jade on Gorillamask.
- 5
LeahLeah's a hot name to begin with because it kind of sounds like Leia. And living out that childhood fantasy makes almost any chick worth it (even if they act like Lea Michele).
Her set will remind you of that girl who you became friends with for the first few weeks of college before she realized she was hot. The difference? Leah's probably not a stripper.
She's got a great approachable quality that's becoming more popular these days since geeks are starting to run the earth.
BONUS: If you look closely, she's got a bunch of adorable little spots on her belly that will, at first, make you clean your computer screen... only to soon-after make it sticky again.

City eliminates 35 job positions
Date: 06/22/2010
Currently 2 Responses
- 1.
- I would sneak a guess that those 35 positions and probably the 13 other unlucky employees had taken part in the expansion and raises those in power felt were earned and thier just reward for leading our home markets into such robust profits AND taxes. There were articles in the news at that time as well I know in Manatee County that's the case. I still have the articles. I wish on most of the tv shows, radio shows and print media would talk about some of the real reasons folks couldn't make their house payements. Taxes zipped up fast and high and just as fast and hight Insurance jumped up. For us, that knocked us right out of even qualifying for the loans we gave up so much to obtain. Sounded smart then--we sought advice fro m successful businesspeople, parents, books, periodicals. So we used our retirement money to purchase a home, before the prices went so high we could'nt. Thats what our advisers said "hurry up, or they'll be too high. That is what I find more that not. Of course now one of us has been diagnosed with a progressive, chronic, neurological disease. And so many people I see (while dog walking) that are in the same boat. The holes that are sinking both boats are a little different, but we're goin down. If those stupid banks would man up and put correct marketablt values on those loans, not back-ended with the balance-----just really what the going market value-----you know the market----the thing that makes anything worth anything.. Remember if Gold were uber expensive (which it may be one day) -no
buyer. no value. Now there are very few jobs that almost always have value being the tax man and the undertaker, couse the undertaker makes the vehicle that the body rides to either hell (you decide, not me) or heavan where the streets are paved in gold!!!!!!! So I guess gold does not have monetary value in Heaven, sounds like my kind of place, In any case bankes used to re-value a loan according to a few of the folks I know that have been here over the years. I'm told that it was not an uncommon practice when the loan value had fallen. Then everything can re-wind and go back to what we had prior--not 18-20% increase in value. Not the the normal for here 10-12%.....higher than most of the nation in the past health market. If any one ready this know the president please pass it on---they won't take MY call anymore. I don't need the credit for this program working, Hey! the they can hire back the 13 they feel so bad about and maybe even grow into the 34 other eliminated but not used jobs!
God's Peace
- 2.
- Well it's also tragedy the almost 12% of Sarasota and Manatee Counties private workers are unemployed. They actually make money for all that happens in any government. Times are tough. How about this idea. Have the government employees bid for their jobs. How much of a pay cut are you willing to take in order to keep your job? Let's have a bidding war. Government jobs can be cut way back to balance the budget. Let's do it!

4 Fantastically Stupid Projects Pushed By Republicans Aiming to Please Their Corporate Masters
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
As thousands of Americans protest the budget cuts and austerity measures being unleashed on their communities by their elected officials, states continue to issue tax breaks and deal out funding for an array of fantastically stupid projects.
1. Kentucky's $43 million Bible theme park
In Kentucky, officials approved $43 million in tax breaks to complete a project for a Bible-themed amusement park. In addition to that subsidy, taxpayers may have to cough up another $11 million to improve a highway interchange near the site.
Gov. Steve Beshear (D) dismissed the concerns of separation of church and state hippies when he stated there's nothing "remotely unconstitutional" about taxpayer dollars incentivizing the Ark park, unless you're one of those extremists who take the "separation of church and state" part of the Constitution literally.
"The people of Kentucky didn't elect me governor to debate religion. They elected me governor to create jobs," [said Beshear]. Daniel Phelps, a geologist and president of the Kentucky Paleontological Society, called the governor's support of the proposal "embarrassing for the state."
It's unclear how many jobs exactly The Ark Encounter amusement park will actually create, but it is obvious Kentucky badly needs funding in other areas. The state has gone through eight rounds of budget cuts over the past three years, including massive cuts to education (Kentucky is one of nine states that cut per-child spending by more than 10 percent), and a pay freeze for all teachers and state workers. The state also recently cut funding for Medicaid.
The bankrolling of a religious scheme occurs at a time when 16.9 percent of tthe population lives in poverty, according to Community Action Kentucky, a community-based agency that implements several government programs, but also partners with private entities to help lift people out of destitution. Additionally, 23 percent of all children in Kentucky under the age of 18 live in poverty.
As for any benefits the park might bring, other states aren't convinced such endeavors are sound investments. Tennessee declined not to give tax breaks to a similar Bible park following concerns the project wasn't a good use of taxpayer dollars.
2. Texas's tax breaks for yacht owners
Then there's the decision from the Texas House of Representatives to issue a tax break for its state's Galtian overlords who wish to buy yachts costing $250,000 or more.
It was only last month that non-yacht-owning Texans held a daylong vigil outside the state Capitol in response to proposed massive budget cuts to healthcare and education that were called " historic." Ultimately, the Legislature cut healthcare by about $10 billion and delayed any decision on Medicaid until the 2013 session so they can focus on the pressing matter of funding billionaires' floating third homes.
3. Gov. Christie's Money Pit
New Jersey's Gov. Chris Christie, AKA the Fiscal Conservative Messiah, made a name for himself by slashing spending by eliminating hundreds of millions of dollars in education funding and going to war with public workers. Yet, Christie didn't mind ponying up hundreds of millions of dollars in state dollars for the Xanadu Meadowlands money pit that has been in endless construction since 2003.
Originally a private venture, the Xanadu entertainment and shopping complex quickly fell behind schedule, motivating Gov. Christie, who previously expressed hesitancy at using public funds to save a private undertaking, to intervene. In July 2010, the governor announced it was time for the state to step in , and in the end, that decision would cost New Jersey taxpayers big time.
Named "the ugliest damn building in New Jersey and maybe America," the $1.9 billion Xanadu Meadowlands complex – complete with indoor water park, skating rink, and 600-foot ski slope -- remains unfinished, and Christie recently announced the company that built the Mall of America intends to rescue the deteriorating project.

sex and the spirit
Not that I Am even sure if I am using this right but my constant battle of sex and the spirit is at it again.Perhaps, they are both the same for me. Is this perverse or is this the way it is meant to be...or maybe just for me? I am lost..it is always the same..this battle inside..it rules me As a child I was taken..against my will taken and told that my body was not mine.I was given a price and in times of despair I came to use this as my express on a dnlater as my vocation. Now I am out. No longer the games with the men but I struggle..it is constant. Coming out was to be the end of the pain...my cure all. Yet, is it? I was going to be a martyr. A sacred whore and reclusive monk..I would raise my son and sit atop a mountain sending the world my extreme love. I would use this power the detructive one..the one i used to dance for them and take control of a room journeying back centuries hypnotizing them by my gaze. By this power I would save them all....I would be allowed to go home.
