Murray: Wolves job is a massive task
Dean Saunders' successor as manager at Molineux faces "a massive task" to lift the club in readiness for an instant return to the npower Championship, says former Wolves goalkeeper Matt Murray.
– Matt Murray speaking to Sky Sports News.
The Wolves players have to realise that in every single game they're going to be a massive scalp
In the Championship Wolves are a big scalp, but in League One other clubs will go there desperate to play them and when they go away to these teams, it's going to be a lion's den.
I think they've still got £16million of parachute payments and everything else, then I believe Wolves can get back.
But the appointment, the person who comes in, it's a massive task just to lift the whole place.
Wolves sacked Saunders following the club's relegation to League One and are now in the hunt for their fifth permanent manager in less than 15 months.
Owen Coyle, Peterborough's Darren Ferguson and Kenny Jackett, who resigned as Millwall boss, have been installed among the early favourites.

Our Gourmet: Bodhi Thai Bistro a delicious way to be enlightened
Bodhi Thai Bistro40 Pleasant St., Portsmouth; 431-1299; www.bodhithaibistronh.com
Serving: Monday-Thursday, 11 a.m.-9 p.m.; Friday and Saturday until 10 p.m.; Sunday 4-9 p.m.
Handicapped access: Front stairs
Restaurant Location:
Setting 13/20
Our Gourmet: The brisk little eatery on Pleasant Street, in the heart of the Port City's central shopping/dining/strolling district, offers about a dozen tables, with small bar at the back between the restaurant and kitchen. There's a wide-screen TV behind the bar, but thankfully it was off this night. Decorations are minimal above the polished wood floors, with Christmas stockings and other Yuletide touches competing with a few pieces of artwork, bamboo and other Asian decorations on bright orange and green walls. It's a bit spartan, but the food speaks volumes. 6/10
The Dining Companion: We hesitated upon entering on a recent Saturday night, simply because the restaurant was empty at 6 p.m. Not a soul. But after a few patrons were seated, we grabbed a table, feeling not so alone, and were wise to move in when we did. By 6:30 each table was occupied. Two servers and a restaurant manager handled all posts, creating a bit of a rushed ambiance, but altogether friendly servers explained the menu, offered drinks, and made sure we did not have to wait. Smooth jazz in the background and splendid cooking aromas filled the air. 7/10
Menu 18/20
OG: There is plenty to choose from at Bodhi, and creativity fills the pages of the menu, offering many variations on the same theme but with some intriguing custom touches. Five kinds of curry are offered along with a fine selection of seafood, salads, soups and noodle and rice dishes. Depending on your choice of protein (tofu, chicken, beef steak, pork loin, shrimp, calamari, sea scallop, seafood combo, or duck), main dishes run about $13 to $18, with jasmine white or brown rice.
When ordering, patrons are encouraged to pay attention to the spice level. Bodhi puts names to it: 1) Coward, 2) Careful, 3) Adventurous, 4) Native Thai or 5) "Show Off." Choose with care; chefs are always better show-offs than diners. 9/10
TDC: The seafood and curry dishes attracted me, and I held off ordering some authentic Thai soups (Tom Yum, Tom Kha, vegetable, $5 to $9 for one or two) to not spoil dinner.
We shared a House Salad ($6) which was plentiful and very nicely prepared with fried tofu, pineapple slices, and fresh tomatoes and cucumbers amid onions and peppers and a small mountain of greens, with a delicious ginger-spiced dressing. Other salads ($6 to $17) feature beef steak, chicken, seaweed, mango, papaya and steamed seafood (shrimp, calamari and scallops). A good selection of appetizers and a range of dinner choices ensure all tastes are accounted for. 9/10
Appetizers 18/20
OG: We shared a small portion of the House Sampler ($11) and were glad we went small. It wasn't small - a plateful of fried Asian delicacies that would have been plenty for four had we gone large ($18). Satay chicken on skewer was accompanied by a pork dumpling, chicken wing, crab rangoon, curry puff, shrimp wrap and crispy spring roll, nicely sided by creamy peanut sauce, scallion-spiced teriyaki sauce and sweet-spicy chili sauce. Plenty for two, or nearly a meal for one, the Sampler lays the groundwork for your meal. 18/20
Entrees 18/20
OG: Ginger Fish ($17) offers salmon (my choice) or tilapia, lightly broiled or fried, in a spicy ginger-scallion sauce that fills the bowl beneath a healthy serving of fresh vegetables - peppers, snow peas, scallions, onion, mushrooms and small slices of fresh ginger. The large, thick salmon steak withstood the spice preparation nicely, offering just the right seafood flavor to a medium spicy overall dish, made all the spicier with my "Adventurous" labeling. The discussion with our server even touched on "Native Thai," so I asked for my adventurous dish to lean toward the native, and it did that perfectly. Spicy? Absolutely. Tolerable? Absolutely. Flavorful, fulfilling? No doubt. A fine meal, choosing among the myriad of veggies, sticky jasmine rice and fall-off-the-fork tender salmon. A definite winner. 9/10
TDC: Masaman Curry Seafood Combo (shrimp, calamari, sea scallops; $18) was a mouth-watering bowl of Asian delight, with a thin, flavorful, slightly-spicy red-coconut curry sauce nearly floating all the veggies and seafood that made up this large meal. Onions, roasted peanuts, zucchini, carrots, potatoes and red peppers were enough to satisfy by themselves, and large sea scallops and baby shrimp added just the right seafood ingredients. Usually I can take or leave calamari, but Bodhi's was nicely prepared and sliced thick to withstand cooking and not become rubbery. The spice and heat of the curry was balanced by the starchy jasmine rice and the cool, crisp salad. Highly recommended. 9/10
Final thoughts 17/20
TDC: Bodhi Thai is the type of eatery where, after your meal, you realize how many dishes you would like to try, and how to do the place justice would require several visits. I remarked during dinner that if I worked in downtown Portsmouth I would have one of the house salads every day. Now, I realize that's a stretch, but the salad was good enough to prompt the comment. And that's just a tiny part of a vast menu of tastes and choices available. 8/10
OG: According to Bodhi's website, Bodhi means enlightenment, and the restaurant's goal "is just that. To enlighten your senses and tempt your palate." Those not familiar with Thai food or unsure about the experience, for the first time, should take heed and venture forth to be enlightened. It will be well worth the trip. The restaurant's owners, the Senesombath family, make sure the site explains that most any dish can be prepared to your liking, and after that there is a richness of cuisine you'll be happy and well-served to explore. 9/10

Uncontested and Contested Divorce
In the 2000+ cases we have handled in the family courts, we have found that resolving disputes amicably usually results in a better outcome for our clients.

We strive to resolve disputes with as little emotional strain on the parties as possible. However, when a agreement is not possible, we are prepared to litigate the case to final judgment.

Many people who are filing for divorce do not have disputed issues and want to file the divorce documents on their own. At Elston & Edwards, we offer divorce document preparation services for a small flat rate fee. For more information or to get started, contact us to schedule an initial consultation.

A paternity case is a court process that establishes a father's paternity for a child (sometimes through DNA testing) and sets forth the father's legal rights and responsibilities with respect to that child. At Elston & Edwards, we represent both mothers and fathers in paternity actions in Texas.
Child Custody
Few issues in a divorce proceeding are as emotionally difficult as child custody. At Elston & Edwards, we strive to resolve these child custody issues and achieve a resolution that is best for the child. Through our knowledge of the many forms of child custody, our combined 30 years of family law experience, and our familiarity with the rulings of the family court Judges, we offer effective representation to clients facing these difficult decisions. Contact our Texas child support, visitation, and modifications attorney to schedule an initial consultation.
Child Support
Child support is the amount of money that the court orders a non-custodial parent (the parent with whom the child does not live) to pay the custodial parent each month for the support of their children. At Elston & Edwards, we assist parents to get child support ordered, as well as modifying (increasing or lowering) the amount of child support that has been previously ordered. Contact us to schedule an initial consultation.
Adoption and Termination of Rights
Elston & Edwards is committed to helping Texans get through the adoption process, which can be complicated. We recognize that many people who remarry want their new spouse to adopt their children from a previous marriage. With a combined 30 years of legal experience, we are dedicated to helping people with stepparent, grandparent and inter-family adoptions. Contact us to schedule an initial consultation.
Modification of Custody and Visitation
There are often issues that arise within a family that call for a modification of a child custody and visitation arrangement. That is why Elston & Edwards offers continuing representation to individuals involved in various family law issues. We offer over 12 years of experience and are honest and compassionate with our clients facing these emotional changes. Contact our Texas visitation lawyer to schedule an initial consultation.
Modification of Child Support
Financial circumstances do not always remain the same. That is why the Texas child support guidelines have established means for modification of child support. At Elston & Edwards, our experienced lawyers can effectively guide you through the necessary steps to modify child support or contest a child support modification. Contact our Texas child support modifications lawyer to schedule an initial consultation.
Grandparents' Rights
Texas grandparent rights laws have, over time, greatly reduced the ability for grandparents to obtain visitation rights or legal custody of their grandchildren. At Elston & Edwards we stay abreast of the latest developments in the continually evolving area of grandparents' rights laws. With over 12 years of family law experience, we are able to utilize our knowledge and skills to provide representation to grandparents seeking custody or visitation rights. Contact us to schedule an initial consultation.

Touché Wash U, You Manipulated Us All--But It Won't Happen Twice:
An Open Letter from Your Local Critics
We're thrilled to have put enough pressure on Bo Kennedy and Wash U to help force an end to the cat intubation lab within Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) courses offered by the school and St. Louis Children's Hospital. But, of course, we all learned that Kennedy is still insisting on using animals for the exact same procedure recently discontinued in PALS classes--now only within WUSM residency training, where outsiders can no longer get a look behind the lab doors.
Is that because of the embarrassing fact that Wash U is an outlier in the medical community, representing one of only three schools still using animals for intubation training? Or because the procedure itself makes people rightly uncomfortable, as defenseless animals have plastic tubes repeatedly forced down their delicate airways?
With the May 31st statement from Children's Hospital rep Jackie Ferman, everyone believed the cat lab had closed for good. Yet in a deceptive move even we didn't think you'd make, Drs. Kennedy and Cole outed Wash U as having lied by omission to everyone waiting to see the permanent end of this inhumane operation.
Kennedy and Cole's June 12th op-ed to the Post-Dispatch was meant to clarify the previous statement, and to alert the unsuspecting public that you are still sentencing animals to lives of confinement and abuse to serve a medically unsound training program. Obviously you knew that if you didn't make a proactive statement, word would've leaked out, and the outrage over your secrecy would've been even bigger. It's all one big PR maneuver, and don't think for a second we don't recognize it for exactly that. Truly, Wash U, your arrogance is staggering.
What you may not have accounted for, however, is the backlash you have just unleashed, not just from us, but from the public watching this cruel spectacle unfold. To be sure, we have already begun strategizing our next moves. Not only will our efforts be redoubled, but they will be diversified. You will see us and hear us everywhere.
Let's also set the record straight. While we have worked in tandem with PETA and other advocates from around the world to end the cat lab, we are not, as the Post-Dispatch and other media outlets have reported, "PETA representatives." We are a group of local activists who represent a concerned local citizenry that includes students and staff from your own institution. We are the people who stand outside your medical campus to protest nearly every week, who attend and coordinate events to educate the public about what's going on within your labs, who leaked photos from inside your vivarium, and who watch your every move from right here in our shared city.
And we will not stop. This campaign is not over until each of the cats and ferrets used for intubation is in a proper home and there is a public, official statement from Washington University that no more animals will ever be left to suffer Bo Kennedy's egomania and abusive whims. Until then...
Wash U Lies by Omission, Animals to Continue Suffering at Kennedy's Hands
But be sure...there will be no rest for the wicked.
Official AMP statement in response to June 12th news coming soon.
Washington University's Cat Lab: Confirmed CLOSED on May 31, 2013
While PETA has been fighting the cat lab from afar for five years, it was collaboration with our on-the-ground grassroots group that pushed the issue in front of the local public and amped up the pressure on Washington University's directors. Between having a big national group on their backs and having committed local animal activists in their front yard, Washington University was quickly faced with a wall of voices that were not letting up until the animals were safe and Bo Kennedy's lab was closed for good. The campaign included a variety of tactics, from PETA's undercover video leak to AMP's photo leak from inside the vivarium; from a mass mailing to Wash U's directors to phone-in days that included calls from activists around the world; from targeted leafleting in the community to weekly protests outside the medical school campus.
So this victory belongs to all of us. To every one of you who supported this campaign in any way: THANK YOU. (We'll go ahead and say it on behalf of the cats--because you know they would if they could.)
All the News That's Fit to Shame Wash U
On the heels of PETA's release of this undercover video shot inside Wash U's cat intubation lab, a slew of media stories in the area started circulating. Especially when Missouri native and beloved gameshow host Bob Barker chimed in on behalf of the cats.

St. Louisans Demand "Christmas Cats" Released from WUSM Lab
Protesters to Make Loud Spectacle Outside Medical Campus
DATE: November 30, 2012
LOCATION: Forest Park Pkwy. & Euclid Ave.
ST. LOUIS, November 29, 2012
Animal activists will vent their frustration with Washington University in another demonstration against the school's use of live cats in intubation trainings. Friday's protest marks the official call to WUSM to discontinue the use of cats in their Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) courses by the end of this year. Organizers are calling the animals "The Christmas Cats" because they're asking PALS directors to relinquish the felines by December 25th. Veterinary care from Spencer Creek Animal Hospital and living arrangements at Five Acres Animal Shelter and Sacred Ground Animal Sanctuary have already been arranged for the cats.
"St. Louisans—and not just activists—are so angry this is still happening in their city. After the animal rights conference held here last month, activists are even more fired-up to win this campaign by any means necessary," says Laura Shields, protest coordinator. The demonstration outside Wash U's medical campus will feature a simulation of the intubation process, as well as chanting, the use of bullhorns, and other protest tactics. Shields adds, "If Bo Kennedy and the rest of the PALS directors continue to ignore the requests of their community, then we'll continue to step up the campaign."
In addition to releasing the cats in use at Wash U's laboratories, protesters want PALS directors to start using the Saigh Pediatric Simulation Center at Children's Hospital for teaching students how to intubate. This is in accordance with American Heart Association (AHA) recommendations. The AHA governs curriculum for the PALS classes, and does not condone the use of animals in their courses.
Fight to End Use of Cats at WUSM Continues Until Victory
Activists and concerned citizens from around St. Louis promise Washington University that protests and public outreach will only end when live animals are no longer used for medical training. Protests include using bullhorns, distributing flyers that call on the public to contact Wash U directors, and even demonstrating a live human simulation of a practice activists call cruel and unnecessary.
Demonstrators bring attention to intubation training in a class co-sponsored by Washington University and Children's Hospital. The Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) class requires students to forcibly insert breathing tubes into cats' throats. This can cause bleeding and swelling of the throat, cracked teeth, punctured lungs, and death.
The American Heart Association (AHA), which designs the PALS curriculum, states that it does not condone the use of animals in its course. The AHA recommends that PALS training be done on "lifelike human manikins." PALS students have access to these manikins at the state-of-the-art Saigh Pediatric Simulation Center in Children's Hospital.
Organizer Laura Shields states, "Everyone we talk to wants to know why live animals are still being used when more ethical, more reliable models are available. The fact is Wash U doesn't have a good answer for us, for them, or for the animals." Shields goes on, "We've already done several protests, and we're prepared to be here as often as it takes to free these cats and make sure no more are brought in for the program."
Regular demonstrations against what activists call "the cat lab" began in August and have continued monthly.
All Eyes on Wash U as Activists Protest School's Animal Research Programs
Animal Rights Conference & Protest in St. Louis Target Wash U
Animal rights activists from around the country will converge in the Gateway City at the end of October for a conference focused on winning the war against animal experimentation. St. Louis was chosen as the conference location in part because it is home to one major target of opportunity: Washington University.
National organization Stop Animal Exploitation Now and local groups St. Louis Vegans and St. Louis Animal Rights Team are hosting the landmark conference, Free the Animals: Effective Action Against Vivisection.
"This conference will empower and energize activists across the U.S. to attack the animal experimentation issue head-on and to make concrete changes for the tens of millions of animals who are imprisoned in laboratories."
In addition to featuring a dozen speakers, the conference will kick off with a free screening of Project Nim presented by film subject Bob Ingersoll. Attendees will also be able to put tactics learned during the conference into effect during the wrap-up protest at Washington University.

I'm trying to get orca going on gentoo. The gnome version used is
2.26. I've tried googling and asking on the orca mailing list, without
I installed gentoo following the handbook except used a serial
terminal, this is in a virtual machine as i unfortunately only have
one machine. Later i proceeded to install gnome, which failed. Before
the install would complete successfully libxml2 needed to be
installed. I next installed orca and started up gnome. I had to make
some changes to custom.conf so i could log in and loaded the
accessibility modules per instructions on the orca site. When i tried
to start orca via either the alt+f2, orca or in a terminal with orca
--text-setup i get to the second screen where i'm prompted for the
speech server always i choose gnome speech and then i hear no more
speech. I've also installed the java-access-bridge, but am assuming
there's a configuration step i'm missing.
Any suggestions appreciated.

More Fun at the Theatre - 60' HDTV with Satellite TV (over 200 channels), Blu-ray disk and DVD player - and now 2 fun Free Kayaks for you to enjoy - the Sunny Side - our Bright Yellow Tandam Kayak, and Yellow Frenzy - one person Kayak.
What is our PLUS? It's our hidden extra bedroom with it's palm tree mural. Not only do you have an over-sized Master bedroom (with fab view of the beach and ocean), a lovely Guest bedroom with a queen sized bed and lovely view of our gardens, but there's an extra room with 2 twin beds - excellent for overflow - or just close the door - you are down to 2 bedrooms (with office space if you'd like).
And if you are wondering where the name Theatre on the Beach comes from - its to honor our extensive Caribbean themed DVD collection. And a selection of my favorite videos if you want something besides Caribbean. Plus - we've have unlimited FREE high speed internet - bring your own laptop and the internet access is on us.
So if you've decided on St. Croix - choosing the Theatre should be an easy decision!
Called the Surprising Virgin - St. Croix is a wonderful mixture of the laid back character of St. John and the hub-bub of St. Thomas. And because it's large enough to have it's own farms and industry, prices are not outrageous! In fact, local fruits and vegetables are actually quite a bargain.
Theatre on the Beach (unit 215) is located at Sugar Beach resort - just five minutes by taxi from Christiansted, but a world away from the noise, bars and nightlife. It's peace and quiet with an ocean front. Our 400 feet of sandy beach front means lots of room for everyone to play, our large free-form swimming pool beckons, and of course there's also tennis on site.
Our unofficially onsite restaurant - Breeze's - is one of St. Croix most popular - and it's open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Just don't miss trying a Mongoose - it's one of the most refreshing tropical drinks I've ever enjoyed.
Theatre on the Beach isn't just fully furnished, it's professionally decorated to make your stay not just relaxing, but fun as well. It's just 6 steps up from the parking to our front door. Modern, comfortable, wonderfully decorated (Thea Alvin - our decorator and good friend - was featured in the November 2013 issue of 'O' magazine), with tons of extra amenities. (sigh - just describing it makes me what to visit!)
We've put in every appliance you can imagine, Gourmet kitchen utensils - upscale pots and pans - even Caribbean themed dishes are yours to enjoy. Even better, Theatre on the Beach has ceiling fans in every room - in additional to our central and super efficient AC system - not that you'll need it with the huge 30' private porch that gives you your amazing view of palm trees and ocean.
Just drop us a line to check availability and make your reservation in Paradise!
We wanted an island get-away forever - but most islands just didn't feel safe enough - that is until we set foot on St. Croix. This is the perfect island - it's US - and yet Caribbean. The ocean, the sun, the sand - all perfect - and yet there's a KMart, real grocery stores, even a Home Depot. You can visit a rain forest, a desert, and then the ocean. All within an hour. Perfect.
Leslie Eiser purchased this condo in 2004
Sugar Beach is right on the ocean. Nothing between you and the water but 40 feet of sand - and 2 palm trees. Plus it's fast and easy to get to Christiansted - adorable city with tons of great restaurants. We are seriously fussy about food - and these are seriously good.
The View, the kitchen, the people, the place, the sun, the sea - it's all special. And we love it.
We loved staying here. The staff was wonderful. The grounds keeper was so nice! He cut us down some coconuts and opened them up so we could drink the coconut water. The Security Guard was so friendly and he loves the Cincinnati Reds - so that was a plus :) Ching Ching was fantastic at the front office.
One of the most interesting things was the various Jewelry stores and Souvenir Shops that offer free Alcohol sampling without limit (pretty much). We cannot say enough about how wonderful Karin was at Royal Jewels. She was so genuine and brought us such joy.
All in all this was an amazing vacation. The weather was fabulous, the ocean spectacular and life is grand. We are very fortunate to have been given an opportunity to experience this magnificent island. Thanks for an amazing vacation. We will be back!
Swimming (in the ocean right in front of the resort - or in our lovely fresh water pool), World Class Snorkeling/Scuba Diving, Duty free shopping, Bars/Nightlife in Christiansted, Hiking (from our Rain forest to our desert!), Brand New Divi Casino is 20 minutes away

Facts about Pepper
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier Mix
- Color: Brindle
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
My name is Pepper!
Pepper's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Pepper is a 3 year pit bull terrier mix who came to us from another shelter where her time was up. She has been in foster care for the 2 years living with other dogs and older children. When Pepper first arrived in her foster home she was certain of how to fit in. With time she has proved to be a very loyal companion. Pepper is very intelligent and athletic. She would make a great running or hiking companion for someone. She does not care for the feline type so much so would do best in a home without cats. She is crate trained, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccinations.This girl has been waiting a very long time to find that perfect fit...we just know it is out there!

The summary statement began with: "Results-oriented Marketing Professional…" As if my hand had a mind of its own, I circled Results-oriented and wrote "Ugh" next to it. I thought twice of erasing my first comment but in the end left it there. My customer did a double-take and pouted, hurt by my crudeness.
With all the negative press about using clichés, or outdated words and phrases, on your résumé and LinkedIn profile, there's now a push to show how you possess important adaptive skills rather than to simply tell employers you have them.
Résumé experts say words like creative, team-player (ouch), innovative, hardworking, diligent, conscientious, and more are being thrown out the window. They're seen as fluffy words with no substance.
Words like designed, initiated, directed, authored are more of what employers want to see on a résumé and LinkedIn profile. The big difference is obviously the "bad" words are adjectives and the "good" words are action verbs. To complicate matters more; even some of the verbs have fallen in the cliché category, like led, managed, facilitated, etc.
From a reader's point of view, this makes sense. Someone who claims he's outgoing, highly experienced, seasoned, result-driven, etc., seems to…lack creativity. Someone who can show that he is results-oriented by showing he began and finished multiple projects in a timely manner while also consistently saving the company costs by an average of 40% will win over the minds of employers. Showing is always better than telling.
Keywords and phrases: Here's the rub—many job ads contains clichés; and if you're going to load your résumé with as many keywords/phrases as possible, you're almost inclined to use these outdated and useless words. Especially if you know your résumé is going to be scanned by an applicant tracking system (ATS). After all, you want your résumé and LinkedIn profile to end up at the top of the pile.
I performed a quick experiment where I looked at three job ads and attempted to find some of the overused words. Sure enough words and phrases like team player, hard worker, ability to work independently and as part of a team, detail-oriented, to name a few, showed up in many of the ads.
Why do companies write job ads that contain words that are almost comical? Part of the reason is because the fine folks who write these ads don't know any other way to phrase effective ads; and partly because these are qualities they're looking for. Almost every company is looking for a team player who can work independently as well. Every company desires people with excellent written and verbal communication skills (unfortunately, this phrase is now also considered a cliché).
This leads us back to our conundrum. What to do if you're trying to write a résumé or Linked profile that includes the keywords and phrases? Not only to game the ATS but also to appease the eyes who'll be reading your written communications?
The answer is: you're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't. You can write your résumé and LinkedIn profile employing clichés, or you can avoid the them on your marketing documents, documents that are, after all, examples of your written communications. I say take the high road and don't sell yourself out.

Are you kidding me with this thing? This do all board will tiake you from dropping cliffs in the morning in 3 feet of pow to mobbing thru the dude tube in the afternoon. NO this is not a "freeride" deck, instead its a ALL TERRAIN KILLER. The BDI gets the Photo Fetish core and guts from last year combo'd with the incredible Black Death shape. What's that mean? The rideability has been tuned down for mortals. Predictable, fun, and confident the new BDI is. You can't find a better riding shred stick at this price. Hell spend $700+ and you still cant step to the performance of the BDI.

Josh Crosby downloaded the Constitution Project's report per yesterday's blog. He writes:
Here is a gem on page 38 from Lt Col Diane Beaver, Staff judge Advocate for the man in charge of interrogation at Guantanamo.
Concerning the use of techniques that technically were considered torture by the UCMJ that she approved. Her excuse was that she was only given 4 days to think about it, didn't have access to much in terms of books or research, and wanted to get something in writing.
Is this what the military does? When asked if torture is wrong it takes 4 days to figure it out and then you decide that it is ok? If it takes you longer than zero seconds to determine its immorality, you are a piece of garbage human being.
When I asked Josh how he'd like me to identify him for this post, he responded, "Please use my full name" and gave me not only that (including middle one) but his complete street-address because, he said, he wants the world to know he "objected to these things done ostensibly in my name [and] I want it publicly documented that I find them categorically abhorrent and any legal status afforded them is only further condemnation of the entire structure that arrogates for itself the position of judge."
Ahem. All I can add is, "Take that, Leviathan. Yet another serf who hates your guts."

Former state Rep. Stephen LaRoque told jurors that he made mistakes running two economic-development non-profits, but did not intentionally steal from the federally-funded charities.
"I made a lot of mistakes," LaRoque told jurors. "I admit that."
LaRoque, a Kinston Republican who served as a member of N.C. House Speaker Thom Tillis' leadership team until his 2012 indictment, is facing 12 criminal counts in a federal trial being held at the federal courthouse in Greenville. The federal probe stemmed from an August 2011 N.C. Policy Watch investigation that found LaRoque received generous salaries from the non-profit's board of directors consisting of his immediate relatives.
Jurors have listened to more than two weeks of evidence about complex and complicated financial transactions and will begin deliberations on LaRoque's guilt or innocence tomorrow.
He's accused of using the bank accounts of the Kinston-based non-profits, East Carolina Development Company and Piedmont Development Company, to fund a lavish lifestyle including new cars, a Greenville ice-skating rink, a house, jewelry and replica Faberge eggs. LaRoque says he is innocent of any wrongdoing and any money in question was owed to him through contracts approved by his board of directors (who consisted for many years of himself, his wife and brother).
He faces more than 90 years in prison, if the jury were to convict him on all 12 charges.
On the stand Tuesday, LaRoque said he didn't report all of his generous terms of his salary to auditors, accountants and the IRS but instead kept that money in East Carolina Development Company's accounts with the assumption that he could withdraw it whenever he wanted.

Here is the feature list for the tech package:
Xenon headlamps
Electrochromatic side mirrors
LED foglights
Convenience lighting
Power rear liftgate
High definition back-up camera
Turn-by-turn navigation with seven years of free map updates
Automatic keyless entry
Xenon headlamps and Homelink are must-haves for me, the rest is just gravy adding to the "wow" factor.
What's driving your decision to include/exclude this package?
Can someone confirm, keyless entry just means the door handles pop out without touching the key. But without tech package, I just have to click the remote (which I do now) to pop the handles out and open the door?
less and less am I liking the tech package.
I'm getting the tech package and most of the options because my wife says this will be my only "dream car" I can purchase in my life time--well maybe another one when I retire. So, I'm just getting it, just because.
Checking the specs page, all MS have keyless entry. That simply means you unlock the doors with the wireless remote. No physical key is required. The door handles popping out as you approach the car with the remote (FOB) on your person is a feature of the Tech package.
Are the cute little lights on the door handles standard or only included with the tech package?
That is convenience lighting, tech package only per Tesla. Steven can you confirm?
@Neech - I have a non-Tech package MS. Those door handle lights are just as cute on mine :)
@firstname.lastname@example.com - In the non-Tech package, the door handles pop out when you double click the button on the top of the FOB or touch the handle with the FOB on your person. I have the sleep mode enabled and my personal experience has been that the handles don't always pop out right away when touched if the car has sat overnight, but a double click of the button on the top of the FOB opens them every time.
@stevenmaifert - Thanks for sharing :) I was hoping the handle lights were included. The person I talked to at my local Tesla store was not very clear about exactly what was included in the tech package besides navigation. She was more concerned about what color I wanted.
The proximity feature.
@Robert22 - After a month with the car, I still have no idea what the convenience lighting might be that comes with the Tech package. The door handle lights come on when they extend, and when you open the door, the front map lights, and rear reading lights (which by the way are the same recessed LED lights) come on as well as the ambient lights under the arm rests. Courtesy lights come on when you open the front trunk and rear liftgate. Maybe someone with a Tech package MS could let us know what additional lighting they have.
If that's the case, then what constitutes "convenience lighting" in the tech package? Ownership experience says it's the "puddle lights" on the handles (cute little LED's). It's not the ambients or dome lighting and all other exterior lights are standard.
Sorry, simultaneous post.
Not sure about this but I think the tech package has side lights that come on when you turn the wheel to help you see where you are turning into. At least that's what I heard. I don't know. I don't have a car =(
That's correct. Steven, you got?
I was not into the tech package until not too long before finalizing. The auto extend door handles are the big reason although the lights sealed the deal. I own 2 Priuses (Prii?) and have become quite used to never taking the fob out of my pocket. Locking the door is done with a touch of the handle. The non-tech MS would have been a downgrade from this standpoint. Maybe kind of silly to spend that much money on something like that , but I thought the Model S ( and I) deserved it. Plus I get to feel so cool when people say "Wow" when the door handles pop out for me.
As far as cost, I don't think $3750 is completely unreasonable. My last purchase, the Prius Plug-in is the Advanced option, which is the only upgrade available from the base model. I paid 7K for that to include navigation, leather-like interior, xenon lights and fog lights, seat heaters, dynamic cruise control ( a big minus for the MS as that is a nice gadget) , minor sound upgrades and sat radio functionality.

'Grats! All dumb answers.
Can the non-tech car display any maps at all on the instrument panel (as distinct from the touch screen)? If so, are they 3D like the Navigon maps that come with the tech package or "flat" like the maps on the touch screen? Thanks.
@Robert22 - I think what tork is referring to is what I call cornering lights... Solid white front side lights that come on with the activation of the turn signal to illuminate your path of travel as you make a turn. I do not have that.
@DouglasR - The non-tech car does not display any map information on the instrument panel, only the touch screen. The map app will display a destination. If you can find your way to the general area of your destination, the Google map can be enlarged and is sufficiently detailed that you could self navigate to the destination once the red location pointer appears on the screen. It can be a little tricky because of the always north orientation of the map, but it's doable.
Do you have little lights under the interior armrests on the doors and in the footwells below the dash?
That's what I think constitues "convenience lighting" on my S with tech.
BTW - these are cute but not terribly useful (I guess if you dropped something small at night...)
The cornering lights are very cool though.
Power liftgate, turn by turn on dash, and homelink were the features I wanted (agree they are pricey).
@markapeterman - Yes, I do have the footwell lights and the lights below the armrests.
My test for the cornering lights was done in a darkened garage this morning. I put my foot on the brake and the car in drive. The headlights came on and the dash and touchscreen lighting switched to night mode. I then turned on the turn signal. No corning light came on. If I have them, maybe the car actually has to be in motion before they activate. I will take a spin around the block this evening after dark and see what happens.
stevenmaifert@a... | JANUARY 22, 2013: No corning light came on. If I have them, maybe the car actually has to be in motion before they activate. I will take a spin around the block this evening after dark and see what happens.
Yes, you have to be in motion for the cornering lights to come on.
Also, are you sure it's triggered by the turn signal? I thought others had said it is triggered by turning the steering wheel.
@stevenmaifert - at night, does the camera have a infrared or night-mode feature? I just rented a Nissan Pathfinder that has an excellent camera that looks great at night, and I've also seen a similar camera on the Acura TL. It would be a shame if TESLA didn't have something more superior than what the market is offering currently. Thanks.
The steering wheel triggers the cornering lights - it's pretty obvious when driving at night.
The camera works fairly well in low light, better than my suburban, but it not night vision optics.
Just back from an after dark spin around the block. I can now confirm the non-tech package MS does not have cornering lights. Nothing when I turned the wheel or used the turn signal. I will say though that the field of illumination from the Halogen headlights is quite wide. I would not have had any trouble seeing a pedestrian in a crosswalk or an obstruction in the roadway. Just speculation, but maybe cornering lights are included in the Tech package as a safety feature because the Xenon headlamps have a narrower beam? Any thoughts or observations?
@email@example.com - The SD backup camera does not have a night mode or infrared feature. AFAIK, the HD camera that comes with the Tech packages doesn't either. It does do well in low light situations, but pitch black is pitch black.
Can't help myself but to thank you again Steven for the detailed and well described information you have given everyone on the non-tech MS. If not for your posts and the corroboration by a few other non-tech owners we would still be guessing. IMO you have helped tremendously in reducing uncertainty about configuring with or without tech.
@email@example.com - Thanks. I'm happy to do whatever I can to help folks make an informed decision.
