Triangle Brain Twister At Mad Physics we generally specialize in answering random science questions and blowing things up along the way. Today, though, we have a purely digital problem, no lab involved! When someone sent us this problem we thought it was good fun, but when we got the answer we got an idea. We decided to be evil and test you first! Here is the problem: In the figure (below) there are two triangles made up of four shapes. The shapes are constant (they do not change between figures). Since they have the exact same surface area, why does one triangle have a one square gap? Look at the diagram carefully what is wrong? The grid is there to help you. For hints and answers scroll down (don?'t worry they are hidden at first). Got it? How long did it take you? Our record is <30 seconds! Let us know your time. To view the hints simply highlight them. The font color is currently white! Hint One (subtle): Think of it as if it where are graph? y=mx+b Hint Two (more obvious): How about the slope, hmmm. Do you give up? Answer: The second image is an illusion, it is not a proper triangle because it does not have a a straight hypotenuse. return to top Cite Our Experiments & Research If you have used any of this information or any of these images please go ahead and cite them in your bibliography.

What's your favorite mail-order fruit cake?
Robert Lambert who makes very expensive jams also makes very expensive fruitcakes, but God are they good. Only had the dark, not the white.
This is the best fruit cake I've ever had: http://www.histoiresucree.com/product...
Anybody's got the recipe?
Collin Street Bakery in Corsicana, TX is the only fruitcake I will eat. Tons of pecans, and some fruit, held together with a little batter. Don't bother with the other varieties that have been added in recent years. www.collinstreet.com

Disney Channel's 'Teen Beach Movie' Songs Get A Cappella Treatment (Video)
Pentatonix, YouTube star Sam Tsui and singer-producer Peter Hollens re-created versions of songs from the summer TV movie.
Disney Channel has recruited three musical acts to put an a cappella spin on several Teen Beach Movie songs.
Inspired by fan-created renditions of the songs from the original TV movie, which aired earlier this summer, the cable network went to a cappella group Pentatonix (winners of the third cycle of NBC's The Sing-Off), YouTube sensation Sam Tsui and singer-producer Peter Hollens to create new versions.
Pentatonix covered "Cruisin' for a Bruisin'," Tsui tackled "Meant to Be" and Hollens teamed with wife Evynne Hollens for a medley featuring "Like Me," "Meant to Be" and "Surf Crazy."
STORY: 'Teen Beach Movie' Director on 'High School Musical' Comparisons and Big Expectations
The new versions will debut on Disney Channel Sunday, Nov. 17, at 8 p.m. during an encore of the popular movie, with a promo launching Friday around 2:25 p.m. PT during an airing of Austin & Ally.
"We've all been huge fans of Disney since we were kids, so we are all so excited to be working with them," said Pentatonix lead vocalist Scott Hoying. "For the video of 'Cruisin' for a Bruisin',' we decided to make it look as though it was shot in one take. We have [group member] Kevin [Olusola] turn the camera on in the beginning and we just do our thing on camera while magically changing outfits at the same time! We thought it was fun and showed our personalities as well as represented the movie well."
Watch the promo debuting Friday afternoon below.
The digital singles will be available Dec. 10 on iTunes and Amazon via Walt Disney Records.

I have been working at Data Computer Corp of America full-time (more than an year)Pros
DCCA is a great small-midsized company. Unlike most small businesses, they have many prime contracts so they have more options for job placement and choices in staffing. Company has a great continuing education policy that covers classes, seminars and conferences.Cons
Can't think of too many downsides. The only downside might be that the staff is small enough that employees have to (or get to) be generalists, taking on some tasking outside their normal areas of expertise.RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO

Five Reader Picks for Tech's Next Big Thing
Ultracapacitors are devices that store energy in much greater quantities than batteries. Maxwell Technologies began life in 1965 as government contractor Maxwell Laboratories. The company, headquartered in San Diego, now generates all of its revenue -- $45 million in 2005 -- from commercial customers. The stock has a market capitalization of $330 million.
Nanotube memory chips: "I'd submit the following disruptive technology. I'm in the semiconductor business, and I think the upcoming bottleneck out there is memory. Nantero is a company that has found a way to use existing semiconductor manufacturing processes and add carbon nanotubes to create a memory device that is three times more dense than any existing technology. It is like flashing memory (like the little USB "thumb" drives), but with storage sizes 1,000 times larger than existing hard drives. It is also nonvolatile, meaning it does not need to have constant power applied to it to maintain the memory states. To complete the scorecard, it is also as fast as existing DRAM memory technology." -- Mike.
Nantero is still a private company, but investors can own a piece of it through the publicly traded Harris & Harris Group (TINY) nanotech portfolio (market capitalization $290 million). Nantero has so far raised $31 million in private investment from venture capital firms that include Charles River Ventures and Draper Fisher Jurvetson.
High-density power converters. "I have a potentially disruptive technology company for you to look at. Vicor (VICR) has come out with a new power converter that converts and manages electric power more efficiently and with higher power densities than ever before. Sony (SNE) has licensed the technology from Vicor, and, I believe, the technology is also being used in conjunction with the new Cell microprocessor that is being made by IBM (IBM), Sony and Toshiba." -- Fletcher.

The very nature software is designed makes it vulnerable.
Originally, it was never designed with hackers in mind using buffer overflow
to push their malicious code through. Until software code (binaries)
and Operating Systems become hacker proof, cyberwarfare will be a problem.
Add to that lots of vendors witholding 0day exploits, and hackers colaborating
in mass with their own software tools, and the problem compounds tremendously.
When a State like China purposedly invest in perfecting exploits, only the U.S.
spending in like manner can quell the PRC goals.

Ostensibly, Jordan Vandenberg is about the only tangible thread linking N.C. State's team this season with its team in 2012, and Vandenberg only played seven games before redshirting that year. The Australian 7-footer and walk-on Staats Battle are it.
There are so many differences between the two teams even beyond the roster turnover – one had a new coach and old players, the other has an old coach and new players – and yet they are inextricably linked by their unexpected paths to the NCAA tournament.
Both entered the season with low expectations. Both showed steady improvement over the course of the winter, particularly later on. Both needed big runs in the ACC tournament, and both feared they may have fallen one win short with a narrow loss to a local rival.
Both were rewarded by the NCAA selection committee for deliberately playing difficult nonconference schedules, the deciding factor as the Wolfpack slipped ahead of Southern Methodist into the 36th and final at-large spot Sunday.
Somehow, Mark Gottfried has taken the Wolfpack to three straight NCAA tournaments after a five-year drought under Sidney Lowe, a task of no small import. This was unquestionably the best coaching job of the three, with massive roster changes, a back-and-forth point-guard rotation and three freshmen big men assuming varying roles.
The reward was a spot in the First Four against Xavier on Tuesday, playing for the 12th seed in the Midwest and a potential trip to Orlando, Fla., where St. Louis awaits the winner.
Even if this team's progression mirrors that of its predecessor two years ago, can it match its postseason performance? Sometimes, it has less to do with talent than circumstances.
So many things went well for the Wolfpack in the tournament in 2012. For one thing, N.C. State didn't have to go to Dayton, Ohio. The Wolfpack had no guarantee it would make the tournament, and the committee and CBS made N.C. State sweat out all 68 picks before it was finally revealed, but it somehow avoided the First Four.
It was also gifted a very winnable subregional in Columbus, Ohio, with a talented San Diego State team that happened to match up very poorly with N.C. State, followed by Georgetown, everyone's favorite NCAA tournament opponent, "Hoya Saxa" apparently being Latin for "early exit."
The Wolfpack finally ran out of steam against Final Four-bound Kansas, although even that was a competitive effort in a very pro-Jayhawks environment in St. Louis.
N.C. State's performance at last weekend's ACC tournament, with T.J. Warren dominating and significant contributions coming from Ralston Turner, Cat Barber and Vandenberg, raised hopes that this team can make the same kind of run, although it will have to make an extra stop in Dayton.
Had Warren not understandably run out of gas in the second half against Duke – so active in the first half moving without the ball, he wasn't nearly as difficult to guard in the second half of his third game in three days – the Wolfpack might not have had to go to Dayton at all.
That's where the Wolfpack will start, though, against a Xavier team that lost three of its past four coming into the tournament but playing only 45 minutes from home. N.C. State is familiar with the arena as well, having lost its opening game to Temple at the same site last year.
If N.C. State can advance, the stout defense of the Billikens will pose a significant hurdle, potentially followed by defending champion Louisville.
In many respects, the draw doesn't appear to be as favorable for the Wolfpack as it did in 2012. The Wolfpack's development over the course of the season, though, appears very similar. And that could prove just as favorable.

The Graves Are Walking: The Great Famine and the Saga of the Irish People
Macmillan, Aug 21, 2012 - History - 397 pages
A magisterial account of the worst disasters to strike humankind—the Great Irish Potato Famine—conveyed as lyrical narrative history from the acclaimed author of The Great Mortality
Deeply researched, compelling in its details, and startling in its conclusions about the appalling decisions behind a tragedy of epic proportions, John Kelly's retelling of the awful story of Ireland's great hunger will resonate today as history that speaks to our own times.
It started in 1845 and before it was over more than one million men, women, and children would die and another two million would flee the country. Measured in terms of mortality, the Great Irish Potato Famine was the worst disasters in the nineteenth century—it claimed twice as many lives as the American Civil War. A perfect storm of bacterial infection, political greed, and religious intolerance sparked this catastrophe. But even more extraordinary than its scope were its political underpinnings, and The Graves Are Walking provides fresh material and analysis on the role that Britain's nation-building policies played in exacerbating the devastation by attempting to use the famine to reshape Irish society and character. Religious dogma, anti-relief sentiment, and racial and political ideology combined to result in an almost inconceivable disaster of human suffering.
This is ultimately a story of triumph over perceived destiny: for fifty million Americans of Irish heritage, the saga of a broken people fleeing crushing starvation and remaking themselves in a new land is an inspiring story of revival.
Based on extensive research and written with novelistic flair, The Graves Are Walking draws a portrait that is both intimate and panoramic, that captures the drama of individual lives caught up in an unimaginable tragedy, while imparting a new understanding of the famine's causes and consequences.

|ESPN.com: Chicago Bears
|[Print without images]
The Bears completely abandoned the run game when the Eagles jumped out to an early lead. Matt Forte finished with only nine carries for 29 yards. Michael Bush had seven rushing attempts for 20 yards in garbage time. This is especially disappointing because Forte had topped 100 rushing yards in each of the last three games leading into Sunday night.
Jay Cutler had a handful of beautiful throws, but overall he connected on just 20-of-35 passes for 222 yards and one touchdown, with one interception that Philadelphia returned for a score. Cutler's quarterback rating was 73.8. In defense of Cutler, the Bears' pass protection was miserable. Cutler got sacked five times and was hit countless others. Forte had a particularly bad night picking up the blitz, an area he had really thrived in for the bulk of the season.
Philadelphia ran for 289 yards and four touchdowns. Both LeSean McCoy (133 yards, two touchdowns) and Bryce Brown (115 yards, one touchdown) had monster nights versus the Bears' 32nd-ranked rushing defense. The Bears haven't been able to stop anybody on the ground for much of the year. That is not expected to change.
Eagles quarterback Nick Foles was near perfect in the passing game: 21-of-25 for 230 yards, two touchdowns and a 131.7 passer-rating. The Bears did sack Foles twice, but on most occasions he had way too much time to stand in the pocket and survey the field. Foles is a master of the check-down. The Bears could never figure out how to stop him.
The Bears had one of the worst special-teams sequences in recent memory in the first quarter when Adam Podlesh had a 25-yard punt on the game's opening drive that gave Philadelphia the ball on the Bears' 43-yard line, and then Devin Hester fumbled a kickoff return. Both times, the Eagles scored a touchdown thanks to the short field the Bears' mistakes provided. Robbie Gould did kick a 50-yard field goal.
Even with the opportunity to win the NFC North outright, the Bears came out flat and looked totally unprepared to deal with whatever the Eagles threw at them on both sides of the ball. When that happens, the coaching staff will shoulder a large chunk of the blame.

Review: Zoe Kazan gives a radiant dual performance in uber-charming 'The Pretty One'
What draws us to certain actors?
Audiences and actors have a relationship that is hard to describe or dissect. When we watch someone over the span of years or even decades, we grow to have certain feelings about them, certain memories of them, and who we are at the various stages of their career plays into the way we feel when we think of them. There are actors who we see almost as our surrogates because we run parallel to them in terms of age and development. There are actors we see as father figures or even grandfather figures, who embody a certain something during the years we develop. There are actors we feel protective of, actors we despise, actors we look forward to seeing, actors whose work feels like a secret told only to us. One of the strangest parts of that relationship is that much of what we're responding to is actually due to the writers and the directors and the cinematographers and stunt doubles and editors and make-up artists and production designers and costumers, and the actor is simply a part of this impression that builds up over time. In some ways, they are a minority stakeholder in the thing that we respond to, but still, we hang those feelings on them.

Veolia, Wheelabrator Extend Steam Supply Agreement
Veolia Energy North America has extended its 28-year partnership with Wheelabrator Technologies, a renewable waste-to-energy company with operations in Baltimore since 1985. The steam generated by renewable energy at Wheelabrator's Baltimore facility supplies nearly 50 percent of the steam Veolia delivers through its central Baltimore district energy system.
Wheelabrator converts post-recycled everyday household waste from Baltimore City, Baltimore County and other areas of Maryland into steam. Wheelabrator's Baltimore waste-to-energy facility reduces the volume of incoming waste by 90 percent.
In May 2011, Maryland enacted a law that puts waste-to-energy plants, including the Wheelabrator facility, on par with solar and wind in the state's renewable energy standard. The state has a goal of generating 20 percent of its energy from Tier 1 renewable resources by 2022 and intends to achieve that goal through as much in-state generation as possible. In addition to delivering heating and cooling, Veolia's district energy network also includes an ice storage system that delivers more than 32,000 tons of cooling capacity and about 45 million ton-hours of low-temperature chilled water to customers.
In 2013, Veolia announced it was purchasing a Massachusetts cogeneration plant to deliver energy to Veolia's customers in Boston and Cambridge.

Female Activists Call Rihanna A Bad Role Model
We recently reported on writer Elizabeth Ann Jones article entitled, "Pop's Poisonous Princess: Glorying In Drugs, Guns And Sleaze, Rihanna's Toxic Role Model For Her Army Of Young Fans." Throughout the editorial, the writer talked about the excessive lifestyle RihRih was living and how the singer is supposedly a negative role model to little girls all over the world.
Former president of the Girls Association Dr. Helen Wright agrees:
"No matter how much people may talk about its artistic merit, it nonetheless objectifies and therefore demeans women by casting them in the mould of whore. Teenagers are impressionable; this video feeds them the same old ugly story of female enslavement, not emancipation or equality.
"Parents should object and do their best to prevent their children from seeing it; even better would be for Rihanna herself to recognise the responsibility she has as a public figure to promote positive and healthy images of women, and to stop selling out, under cover of 'art', to commercial interests which demean women."
Miranda Suit of Safermedia, a charity that campaigns against sex and violence in the media adds:
"[Rihanna's] crude, tasteless and explicit dancing, combined with the money-focused lyrics, are telling all her fans – many of them still children – that it is good for women and girls to sell their body, and right for men and boys to see women purely as a sexual commodity.
"Rihanna has sold out completely to the commercialisation and objectification of women's bodies and their sexuality. And now she's promoting it to girls and boys."
Do you think Rihanna is a bad role model for young girls?

Dummer woman hurt in Lake Umbagog snowmobile crash
According to a New Hampshire Fish and Game press release, Roxanne Bonney was driving her snowmobile on Lake Umbagog around 4:45 p.m., but hit "a rock wall that was exposed due to the winter water level."
Conservation officials said the impact stopped the snowmobile short and Bonney was thrown from the machine. Errol Rescue responded to the crash and took her by ambulance to Androscoggin Valley Hospital in Berlin for treatment. There were no further details about her injuries.
"The accident remains under investigation, however Fish and Game officials want to remind snowmobile riders that even though most frozen bodies of water do not have designated speed limits that operation is required to be reasonable and prudent under existing conditions to avoid collisions," the press release said.

Thank You Dear, studying more of the New Testament will help me know God Better; that I'll do (You can pls join me)
That's because being gay IS god's plan for them.
If you don't like that God creates so many gay folks, then you really need to complain to Him.

"To be honest we don't sell that many Klingon ships.
So we just don't and a... so its... we love to make them. The artists I think like to make them more than Fed ships cause they can be a lot more creative with them, but what the Odyssey sold in comparison to the Bortas was an order of magnitude different.
The Odyssey took a lot more work... (snip) [because of the contest] (snip) ...but even beside that I mean the amount of development time that it takes to make one ship is a lot and so if they don't sell it's really difficult to justify.
So they'll still keep getting them
, but in general you're gonna see more come out for the Fed than you are gonna see for the Klingon. But I think that all of the different fleet ships coming out are going to really help. You're not going to get new skins, or new models, but a lot of new options. A lot of new bridge officer seating options.
They're gonna get the new D-7, right. The K'Tinga and D-7 versions they'll have access to. So and that has a complete different seating that the Vor'cha. So they're gonna get a lot of new options."
While there's plenty of things about the Empire to be upset about, let's not waste our time getting upset about things that weren't actually said. And let's not allow ourselves to be successfully baited by Federation trolls.
awwww thank you hon HUG for going through all of that effort to show word per word what exactly was said.

2013 and earlier Volkswagen Passat Prices Paid and Buying Experience
tom151 Posts: 2A word of worring, I own a VW Passat, purchased used with about 35,000 miles on it. Despite having a VW dealer do all the scheduled maintenance, the breakdown maintenance record has been horrible, the first two years it averaged about $1,500 per year and this year through November we spent $2,600 on breakdown issues. Last week a sealed bearing in the engine failed requiring over $5,600 in repairs, and if there is piston damage the bill could exceed $9,000. In talking to the dealer mechanic, he said that they run into this bearing failure problem "almost everyday". Over the last three years the car has broken down while driving three times, each creating a safety problem, towing and significant breakdown maintenance expenses.
vw_shpr Posts: 2Just received a quote today on a '08 Passat Komfort (w/ heated seats) of $26,689. Also, was made aware that $1,500 in trade assistance is available for trading in a Honda.
Lease quote as follows:
36 months (12K/YR)
$0 down ($550 due at signing)
Pmts: $366 + Tax
Residual: 50% (MSRP $28,655)
Does this look like a good deal? Milwaukee, WI
This forum has been great, so I figured I should go through the rigmarole of signing up to add to the database of knowledge.

Getting offers of 22,400 +TTL as of end of January, 2008. Going to pick the most friendly dealer within the week.
jsnap Posts: 4I just bought an 2005 TDI Passat GLS wagon 5A this past week for $21,900. This car will be for my daughter. 40,003 miles on it when it arrived. It came from Nebraska to Colorado; the previous owner drove it here for me. It was very hard to find this car. I looked all over the US for it, which took me 2 months to find.
It's in pretty good shape; however, it needs the 40K mile service immediately which wasn't an expense I wanted, but I got the seller to knock off $2000 from his price. It looks like it may have an oil leak that needs addressing and the brake light recall still needs doing too. Good thing it's still under warranty! The price was still higher than I had wanted to pay, but these cars are in high demand so I had to swallow hard and just go for it. We really wanted it.
We plan to run it on Bio-diesel as soon as the tank needs filling again. The previous owner filled it up with regular diesel just before we bought it, which was nice of him. He messed up the title tho while filling it out; so, I'll have to wait until I have clear title before I can take it into the shop. Guess we won't be driving it until all that is done.
I'm also buying an '05 Jetta TDI with only 36K on it this coming week too. This one is local so any issues can be delt with more easily. Will be getting that one for $17K.
opositively Posts: 1Hello all. I just wanted to share my experience with you all by using Edmunds website in researching for my 08 Passat.
Today I just purchased a brand new (mocha brown exterior, latte machiato interior) 2008 Passat "Lux" with the additional options of the DVD Navigation (NV), rear side airbags (4X4) and Dynaduio (9VE) for $455 above dealer's invoice. After getting the additional $1500 rebate and trading in my 2001 Toyota 4x4 and got 10K for it, the final cost was $20554. Purchased in Daytona Beach, FL...
Dealer's Invoice: $31579
Edmund's True Market Value (TMV): $32088
Actual Purchase price w/Rebate included: $30554
Total Savings below MSRP:$3386.
Yesterday, however, another VW dealer would've had me pay 680 over invoice, another 500 for transport fees to his lot, and 1K on rebate, and 10,500 on my truck. He was absolute in his price for the EXACT same vehicle color, options, etc...
I confronted him about the rebate, letting him know that VW offered 1500 for rebates, and of course he played it off by saying he wasn't aware of it (sure he wasn't).
I of course did not reveal to him that I already knew what MSRP was, what the Dealer invoice was, and more importantly what the TMV was. Bottom line, I would've paid almost $1500 more than I did had I not done my research using Edmunds.com.
The point in all this is that, if it wasn't for edmund's I wouldn't have known whether or not I was making a good deal for ME or for the Dealer. Today, it was a win-win situation for both the dealer I worked with in Daytona Beach (vs. Jacksonville) and me getting a fair deal all the way around. So I just wanted to say THANKS to Edmunds, and to everyone else who shares their good and bad experiences on here, for making me a much more informed consumer....God Bless the USA!!!
growler2 Posts: 1Well I decided to sign up to share my story.
I am buying a Passat through a special buyer's program w/my company that offers deep discount off the msrp (it is best not to get specific, but it is in the 20-25% off msrp range). Too good a deal to pass up, after test-driving the car and liking it!
The thing is: I really wanted the Lux trim line, but it turned out VW ended their production year early and I was left with a dilemma... I could only choose from existing cars and there were just a handful, and no Lux's. I found a Komfort that matched my color requirements (exactly) and came with one, minor option that didn't add too much to the MSRP. After some debate, I decided to take it.
After reading some forums, it sounds like I did the right thing because there apparently will be no Lux's for 2009. If that's true (and if the CC models are in the upper 30k range), then it reinforces my feeling I acted correctly.
I was wondering if you all agree. I've read SO MUCH online about the haggles of car-buying, that I thought this was a great way to get a guaranteed great deal.
(btw, I knew that VW had a loyalty rebate but I assume it only applied to VW owners. Even if that isn't true, I still got a great deal--though not quite as great as it would seem if you went purely by Edmunds, etc)
rbk3 Posts: 34I traded my 02 Passat 4 Motion for a different make over the 4th of July weekend. VW was the first car I looked at before I switched sides. I think you can get a real sweet deal right now. I didn't work up any numbers for the purchase price with the dealer, but they offered a high trade in allowance and kept calling me with promises of great prices.
I loved my 02 Passat. The only issue I have is they seem to be unreliable after the warranty expires. I spent over 3000 on repairs after the first 4 years of owning this car (last two years) and had an estimate of over 1500 for current engine problems. Had 82000 miles on engine. I don't know about the reliability of the new models. I think the VW is superior to the Asian and American makers in all areas except for the reliability.
If I decided to purchase the Passat, I would work my lowest deal then ask for an extended warranty for free or for a small fee. It's a fun car to drive. I know all cars have issues, I'm just saying get the extra warranty and you won't go wrong.
emmapants Posts: 4I'm looking to buy an 08 Passat Wagon Turbo. How much below invoice do I want to pay? I'm being told $27,150 MSRP and they are offering it for $24900, I want to pay $23000. Is this too high for the 08 now that the 09s are out? Consumer reports is telling me that the dealer price after holdbacks etc is 23,665.
i was just curious of you posters who are complaining about the money you are
spending on repairs for a car still under warranty? you are aware VWs warranty on the B6 is 4/50 with 5/60K on powertrain? I am wondering if you are paying out
of pocket on that? very misleading.
My wife and I pick up her 2008 Passat wagon tomorrow. We paid $29,000 for it. Its sticker price was $30,200. Probably could have done better given that a 2009 wagon had just arrived but we also got the 60 months at 0% financing so that was good. This is the Komfort with heated seats and the floor mats and mud guards option. Only had 13 miles as the sales manager said it was the last 2008 he had ordered. Would have loved a manual but my wife preferred the automatic and there were only 2 2008's left.
I bought my 2001.5 1.8t Passat (manual) at the same dealership and have 145,000 miles on it and virtually no problems. A few headlights here and there (better since I pulled the fuse on the DRLs) and a couple vacuum hoses but other wise just wear and tear issues. Only had to replace brakes front and rear once and original turbo still going strong. Dealer service has been great. Always use 93 octane and always use full synthetic Mobil 1. Even when dealer provided service I brought my own oil. Best car I have ever owned.
chebella82 Posts: 7I'm shopping in Houston to buy a new 2008 lux edition passat with no additional options and got an offer for one with a 30,790 msrp for 26500, so more than 4k off the sticker. It already has 500 miles on it from being driven from an out of town dealership, but was not a demo and they of course are still calling it new. my question is, does this sound like a good deal seeing how many miles it has? They're reminding me that the warranty still starts at 0 miles.
i think you can go lower. look for at least $500 below invoice then take into consideration $2500 dealer cash and that it has 500 miles. but i believe there is also advertising fees, reserve fees and a port fee on every vehicle...almost $400 more than edmunds listed invoice. i'd have them drop it to $26k even as the selling price and be happy.
davec8 Posts: 4VW in Wellesley Mass. is offering this car at 25K, down from an MSRP of 28.8, and an invoice of 25.5. Nothing special on financing. Any reactions would be appreciated, especially ideas for how to bring that number down. (I am helping my Mom with this, and I know very little about VWs.)
Relatedly, I heard that these dealers have 3K in "dealer cash," giving them an extra 3k in cushion. Is this correct? If so should I be looking to get this car down closer to 22K? Thanks very much.

Laptop Skins
CRAYON LOVE - Sunsetby Rachel Burbee
Skins are thin, easy-to-remove, vinyl decals for customizing your laptop . Skins are made from a patented material that eliminates air bubbles and wrinkles for easy application.
Crayon Love was and is a little project a group of Society6 Artist got together to do... because Crayons are for everyone not just kids...
Now I'm no Artist in the sense of I can't draw that well.... So the challenge for me was... Not to take a photography of them and use them in a more traditional way. ..So here is it... and the inspiration for this comes from a photography .. well it had to huh lol... not sure I did it any justice...

* My drivetrain setup has only a front deruiler and a surly chain tensioner on the single bask ring.
The reasons this setup is not working is becuase the smaller ring is too small and has way to much slack at that gear.
I am thinking about purchasing the DMR dual chain reactor, would this solve my problem and eliminate the excess chain slack, Or am is this just a crazysetup i should give up on now?

Antique Coca-Cola Signs
Few brands have been as effectively and aggressively marketed as Coca-Cola, which was invented in 1886 by John S. Pemberton. Almost from day one, advertising materials, including signs, were produced to trumpet the virtues of the sweet, carbonated beverage. In fact, in his first year of business, Pemberton spent more money on advertising than he took in, producing, among other items, 14 outdoor signs painted on oilcloth and another 45 painted on tin. Today, thanks in part to his early obsession with advertising, Coca-Cola is one of the best-known brand names in the world.
The first metal Coca-Cola signs were lithographed or painted. Known as tackers, these signs were designed to be nailed directly through the metal and onto a wooden wall or fence. Even at this early moment in the company's history, Coca-Cola understood the power of the celebrity endorsement—by the end of the 19th century, the popular opera singer Hilda Clark was pitching the beverage on rectangular and oval signs, made out of everything from paper to metal.
By 1910 the short-lived era of large outdoor oilcloth signs had come to an end. Because these signs wore out quickly (they were no match for the elements), they were systematically replaced by more durable, and expensive, metal ones. Some of these large outdoor signs were similar to the tackers, but others were made of fired enamels that were baked until they created a porcelain surface on a base of iron or steel. Eyelets at the corners and sides were built into the design, since nailing through porcelain would destroy the sign.
The first of these porcelain signs were roughly eight-by-eight feet and got right to the point: "Ice Cold Coca-Cola Sold Here," they proclaimed. The Coke bottle depicted on the sign was straight sided—the company's trademark curved bottle, which resembled the contours of a hobble skirt and was nicknamed "Mae West," was not widely used until 1920.
Some tin signs were embossed, giving the brand's famous logo relief, while others were made of aluminum and coated in celluloid, which was less durable than porcelain but worked fine in interiors such as soda fountains and bars.
An especially popular sign from 1914 featured a model named "Betty." This marked a shift for the company away from high-brow celebrity toward something approaching sex appeal, although the young lady's attire and flirtatious gaze is certainly tame by 21st-century standards. Other signs on cardboard from this period admonished customers to ask for Coca-Cola by its full name, which was an effort by the company to combat competitors trying to capitalize on the parts or even misspellings of the brand's good name.
World War I brought severe sugar shortages, so very few signs were produced during these years, but in the 1920s the Coke advertising machine was in full swing again. One classic sign from this decade is the gas-station sign, which often had a chalk circle or triangle built into the sign so station attendants could write in that day's gas price. Larger signs had what are known as "privilege panels" above the Coca-Cola panel itself. These gave retailers space for signage of their own, in close proximity to the Coca-Cola panel, of course...
The 1920s were also when flange signs first came to prominence. These signs featured stenciled-and-fired enamel artwork on both sides of the sign, with a small right-angle flange at one end so the sign could be attached to a building and read by customers walking in opposite directions.
Another famous vintage Coca-Cola sign shape is the so-called red button, which was made by porcelain sign manufacturer Temco of Nashville, Tennessee, among others. The red button sign shape found its way onto Coca-Cola clocks, metal trays, and calendars, as well as flange signs. Shield signs forced the logo into a triangular shape, while rectangular signs were jazzed up by placing the logo within a fishtail shape.
As with the rest of popular culture, Coca-Cola signs changed with the times. For example, the frames of Coca-Cola signs exhibit distinctively Art Deco touches through the 1930s, while the signs themselves often feature mirrored or reverse-painted black glass. In fact, despite the Depression, the 1930s were a big decade for Coca-Cola signage—in 1934 alone, for example, the company offered 28 different styles of signs to its retailers, plus four versions designed just for coolers.
The 1940s saw the arrival of a new Betty on Coca-Cola signs, but new metal signs were put on hold due to the needs of World War II. Untold numbers of porcelain signs were scrapped for the war effort, which, of course, has led to their current scarcity and popularity among collectors. After the war, porcelain signage fell out of favor for less-expensive alternatives such as aluminum and eventually plastic.

I was drinking the original at Hoptacular 2011 tonight. Great stuff.
Sent from my Android phone using Home Brew Talk
Time to dig out the Gordon Lightfoot album and pour yourself one of these in memory of the 29 men lost on this day in 1975
Great Idea. :-)
so anyways....
Made a 5.5g batch of this again the other day.
I'd like to second my recommendation for subbing out the US Pale for Marris Otter on this. Where as it won't get you closer to an EF clone, it will get you closer to a much tastier porter, ( which is saying a lot, as EF is one of my favorite porters.),.
This last batch I FWH'ed with 1/4 oz of homegrown Magnums, subbed the Pale malt for MO, added 10oz's of Aromatic Malt, ( adjusted the IBU's to compensate), did a 120min mash, and used dry S-04. Primary @ 64f. Other than that, everything was as per the OG recipe.
This promises to be quite the beverage.
I'm brewing my fourth(? at least, I'm starting to lose count) batch of your recipe and the only issue I have with this beer is that it keeps me from making other porters and stouts!!!! Thanks for this awesome recipe. It's a crowd favorite and, even though the last batch of it was the newest keg in my fridge, it was the first one emptied.
BTW, once I forgot to buy Special B so had to try to correct for it. It still made a good porter but not nearly as smooth and complex.
Sorry it's been a while since I checked in on this thread, everyone. Glad to hear that this is being brewed, improved upon and enjoyed!
I'm looking forward to brewing this soon.
I'm on brew #2. I've got this on Nitrogen. It's a great beer. Definitely smooth as mentioned above. I think I may be drinking it a bit cold, but still good. I mixed this with my Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA for an interesting dark IPA. My EF came out strong at OSH 1.070 and Dogfish was weak at 1.072, so this mixed pretty evenly - not like a black and tan.
We tried this brewing this for the first time today.
We ended up a little higher on the specific gravity. It was our first time using new all grain equipment so we are still trying to figure out our stuff. We are looking forward to it.
Thanks for the recipe.
Brewed this a little while ago. Changed only a few things: Used carafa I had on hand instead of black patent, mashed at 158, ended up a bit high @1.019, but I intended for a higher fg, and pitched US-05.
Its still a little early, but it came out fantastic. I guess it can only get better as it ages too. No idea how close it is to being a clone, i'll have to get EF and see.
Anyway, thanks for the great recipe.
