This UFO sighting with strange colors was filmed during night in Toronto, Canada.
Scanning the sky from my garden in Eastern Green, Coventry facing north with the sun behind me for safety reasons (as always) using Nikon 8 x 40 Binoculars to sweep the sky in a grid pattern covering the sky from North-east to North-west. Looking for unusual small dot-like objects, which may not be balloons.

from Smileboyhk
These three objects were videotaped on the same night, Oct. 6. The object at left was over Hong Kong, and the other two were videotaped by the same person in San Antonio. | Smileboyhk / SAUFOTX / YouTube
I used my DV and took this video. As I zoomed in the object and it looked like an UFO to me. You decide.
Warning: There is vulgar language in this video.
The latest news reports reveal Comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) is brightening and may yet become the comet of the century. But is ISON a comet? A startling photo has been circulating of comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) that shows it comprises three objects rather than a solitary nucleus as claimed by NASA astronomers. The photo was taken by the Hubble space telescope on April 30, 2013, and it shows two of the objects are highly symmetrical cylinder shapes. In August, a number of bloggers began claiming that comet ISON was accompanied by two UFO motherships, and/or its core was in fact a large biosphere. Not so according to NASA scientists who officially responded in a post that the three objects are merely an overlay of three different time exposures of comet ISON.
Startling images have been circulating of comet C/2012 S1 (ISON) that show that it comprises three objects rather than a solitary nucleus as claimed by NASA astronomers. Is ISON merely a comet that may spectacularly light up in November as it passes near the sun, or is it accompanied by UFO motherships with an unknown purpose?
I am sure that you are aware that Area 51 has practically been shut down due to government shutdown.
According to an investigative reporter, flights to Area 51 are suspended due to the government shutdown.
This is a conference covering the ancient astronaut theory, planet x (also known as Niburu) and shows proof aliens exist. The truth about ancient alien astronauts and PlanetX. Ancient astronauts or ancient aliens is also known as the paleocontact hypothesis. Ancient astronauts appear as a feature of UFO religions from the beginning. The gods of old Mesopotamia were actually astronauts from the planet "Nibiru", or planet X. It is also theorized that ancient astronauts are responsible for the moon and mars structures.
Latest UFO sightings - New daytime footage of some kind of a disc-shaped object hovering in the sky above Medellin, the second-largest city in Colombia. This was allegedly recorded in early October 2013.
Does this video contain evidence that the U.S. did not walk on the moon" The video is worth watching if only to allow your mind to speculate.

Publisher's Note: A UFO Digest reader has sent us this warning regarding this video:
My primary language is french and I can assure you that I understand every words in this video. This is an anti-documentary, a false one in other words. At the end of the generic, there's a man in suit who tells you the purpose of such documentary. The channel is Arte from France. Look it up and please put a notice in this article to avoid disinformation spreadings.
Thank you,
David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are coming to the Paley Center to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the premiere of The X-Files, the iconic sci-fi series that largely defined the paranoid thriller for the nineties, and whose influence can still be felt in supernatural dramas airing today. Though running on Fox from 1993 to 2002, The X-Files was clearly rooted in the seventies.

I'm looking for a better method of carrying my tools. Currently I just use a couple of ziplock bags to separate items. As you can imagine, they don't last long and still bounce around quite a bit in my framebag. A few other items I carry are AA external charger - I put that loose in the top compartment of my Osprey. I also put my helmet light in there too, sometimes I remember to wrap it in a sock.
I'd really like to hear what others do to secure the heavier small items when they ride. It also serves to protect the items from each other. As always, pictures help. Thanks.

LEWISVILLE N.C. recruiting analyst Mike Talbott thinks that the best player on the best team in the state is Northside Christian senior small forward Keyshawn Woods.
I do, too.
Woods, a 6-foot-4, 185-pound senior used to be a high-scoring wing at Gaston Day. As a freshman and sophomore he was among the most prolific scorers in the state. But each year, hes added more to his game. Today, he plays great defense. He always shot it well, but now he can shoot from behind the 3-point line. If youre playing against him, probably the last thing you want to see is an open Woods sitting in the corner with his hands at the ready, yelling Yo! Yo!
Best of all, Woods just plays hard. Its what separates him from many of his peers, and its the reason why Charlottes 49ers, in my view, are getting a player who will be able to help them from Day One.
I like him a lot, said Talbott, who has covered N.C. prep basketball for his Star Hoopers of Tomorrow since 1995. Today, his publication goes to 33 colleges and universities about 10 teams per month. He can do everything. He works hard and he has good intensity, which is the No. 1 trait you can have as a player. He just plays harder than most kids.
There were flashier and higher rated players at the N.C. Independent Schools championships. United Faith sophomore point guard Ty Gadsden had a coming out party for himself this week; highly regarded sophomore Dennis Smith Jr. of Fayetteville Trinity Christian looked like a future McDonalds All-American; and High Point Wesleyans Theo Pinson, the North Carolina recruit and All-American, played the part of hero, leading his team to a dramatic come-from-behind state championship overtime win versus Greensboro Page. Pinson was the best player at the event.
But Woods was his normal steady self. He had 12 in a 91-43 quarterfinal win over Victory Christian where he didnt play much in the second half. He poured in 29 in a 77-45 win over Asheville Christian in the semifinals Friday. Saturday, he led the Knights to a third straight 2A title with 22 points, four rebounds and three assists in a 87-68 win over Concord First Assembly.
Keyshawn is Keyshawn, Knights coach Byron Dinkins said. Hes a great player. He works hard and things happen for him. He showed again why hes one of the top players in the state.
And Woods has this ability to make playing look easy. He has that rare midrange game, where he can score effectively betwen the 3-point line and the paint, using a variety of one-dribble and two-dribble pull-up moves that look like they were honed after hours and hours of practice.
ESPN ranks Woods No. 18 among seniors in North Carolina. Me? I think hes at least 10 spots higher. Talbott seems to agree.
Charlottes getting a steal, Talbott said. I think hell be really, really good at Charlotte. Hes got a well-rounded game. He can do some of everything.
Woods said he cant wait to get to to college.
Its all guns blazing, he said this week with a smile. They told me they just want me to come in and just play. Just play, man.
And thats what Keyshawn Woods does best.

Social media and ad firm Federated Media hopes an experimental project branded by Microsoft leads to a long partnership with Twitter.
Twitter's first association with an advertiser comes in the form of a branded stream of thoughts from executives at outfits as diverse as Popeye's Chicken and Biscuits and Brigham Young University. The Microsoft-sponsored ExecTweets site is an experimental project developed by Twitter along with social media and ad company Federated Media and the Redmond firm. It could be the start of an extended relationship between Twitter and Federated Media.
"The relationship with Twitter is such that we expect that to be a long fruitful relationship in which we will bring many brands into the space," said FM spokesman Matt DiPietro.
The goal of the effort for Microsoft is to promote its Business Insights Web site, which features articles, case studies and demos for entrepreneurs. The broader mission, however, could be devising some sort of viable monetization model for Twitter -- something that doesn't clutter the platform with unwanted ad messages in the process.
"Twitter is contacted regularly by brands interested in sponsoring innovative experiences based on topics of interest," noted a post published Monday on the Twitter blog regarding the new program. "So if you're a major brand and you want to sponsor a topic-focused social media experience with Twitter, we suggest Federated Media -- they'll fix you up right."
"[Twitter] literally gave input into how it's put together," said DiPietro. "They approved it in such a way that it is created in a first class way." More than simply connecting Microsoft to Twitter, FM designed the ExecTweets site and has dedicated staff "curating" the site by monitoring Twitter posts and nominations for more executives to join the select group of execs.
The site compiles Twitter posts from people including Norman Hajjar, EVP and chief marketing officer at Guitar Center, Popeye's CIO Tim Davis, Interactive Advertising Bureau Chief Randall Rothenberg, and Brigham Young CIO Kelly Flanagan. Top execs at Microsoft, FM, and Twitter also made the list.
Microsoft "wanted to enable the business community with a tool that makes communication more real-time, more efficient, and more focused," continued DiPietro. Microsoft has worked with FM as an ad partner in the past, he said.
FM in the past has created custom programs for advertisers that incorporate social media. In addition to enabling advertising for Facebook applications, the firm has developed sites for brands like computer networking company Cisco. In 2007, FM asked tech bloggers to describe what they believed a "human network" is, creating a page of writings related to Cisco's "human network" campaign tagline.
DiPietro called the ExecTweets site "very much an experiment," but said the company "expects lots of brands to want to get involved." He added, "It's safe to say we have significant interest."

I picked this up some time ago from the Amherst Mass and liked both the fact it is a rare item in the fact I surely have not seen too many wig powderers in my travels and the condition is truly outstanding. It does have a bit of normal wear to the gold but honestly looks perfect and the colors are wonderful. There is not a hairline or chip that I can find anywhere and it measures 5 1/2" wide at the handles and 5 1/2" tall. i tried to picture it well to both show it off a bit and answer questions. Thanks for your time and interest and I will continue to try to find new neat things for my shop.

After reading the statements, I went with my family to a football game, laughed about fat and ugly cheerleaders, enjoyed my day, then went to Hooters and ogled some hot waitresses and downed some chicken wings.
The point in all this is it's just another person in the world. As someone mentioned earlier, this kind of stuff happens every day. I think people just like to feign impact of these events because it helps them feel like they're a part of the incident and that creates a warm drama in their life.
For a great example of this, look at Chris Henry. Before he made a stupid decision and got himself killed, everyone mocked him as a terrible human being and waste of opportunity. After he died, everyone feigned sadness and support and blah blah blah.
I think it's terrible that the guy did this. I think these stories are terrible every time I read them. That said, the level of sensitivity people bring to these threads makes me roll my eyes so often I think they might actually get stuck that way. So... don't count yourself as the only one that laughed at his post. I'm quite a fan of "too soon?" jokes. The only post I had an issue with was his second one about "next one up" or whatever because I guess I didn't really get it. I assume Romeo made the statement recently or something.
Great post.

They're not bootable? I thought the vista upgrade dvd was bootable as this is how you get to perform a clean install with the upgrade disk?
Like So....
We have got our Vista discs, but they are only upgrade ones. That was never a problem before because you could just insert an Xp disc when it asked you to, but these are not even bootable!
Is this normal with the Schools agreement? If so then its going to make imaging a right pain in the arse if we have to install XP each time first. Not to mention I would always prefer a clean install compared to an upgraded one.
What would we need to do to be able to get proper Vista discs?
I know the schools agreement is meant to only be upgrades but we always used to get an XP disc that was a full version
They're not bootable? I thought the vista upgrade dvd was bootable as this is how you get to perform a clean install with the upgrade disk?
Like So....
Where did you get your disks and licenses from? We use Ramesys and all their discs are full versions and bootable even though the licenses are upgrades. In fact, if you ring them, they would send you media out for about £20 per copy.
We were only sent upgrades too - Business, Enterprise and Ultimate.
If you are under the Schools Agreement you should be able to access licensing.microsoft.com using the information supplied with each renewal.
This will allow you download a full bootable version of Vista Business or Vista Enterprise which you can burn to a DVD. No sign of Vista Ultimate though.
I *think* we got it from Insight, Ramesys screwed us over royally in the past so we dont use them anymore.
Thanks, Ill try and find our details and see if I can download the image or get them to send some different discs out
We didnt even get different versions Busybub, we only got Business N...weird
ultimate? I didn't think that was available under any volume license?Originally Posted by Busybub
I didn't think so either until I saw it as an option under Software Assurance Benefits which you have to opt-in for!Originally Posted by DMcCoy
Should also add that we got the regular Ultimate upgrade as well as an x64 one.
No wonder I didn't spot it with it hidden in the software assurance section. I really like having a schools agreement
Hmmm... My software assurance section lists nothing... Tsk!
Jet, you might want to check with your supplier and enquire why it is not available to you. It's possible that something was missed out when they were finishing up their paperwork.
Just reading up on this, While Vista ultimate can be used if you had SA in place, it can't be obtained in general under a vol license, further to this each copy of ultimate has to be licensed *INDIVIDUALLY* - MAK and KMS keys do not work with Vista Ultimate.
Back to Vista Enterprise for me :P

Philippine communist guerrillas turn fury against pigs
Published on Oct 30, 2013 10:09 PM
MANILA (AFP) - Communist insurgents who have battled government forces for decades turned their fury on hundreds of pigs at a farm in the southern Philippines, a military spokesman said.
About 50 fighters of the New People's Army (NPA) attacked the pig farm in the town of Libona on the southern island of Mindanao, said local military spokesman Captain Christian Uy.
They set fire to the feed storehouse then attacked the area where about 560 pigs were kept, Captain Uy said.
"They burned some pigs and hacked others to death. About 50 pigs were killed while the rest were injured and are now being treated by veterinarians," he said.

O.PenVape: 'Google of Marijuana' NOT Publicly Traded
Updated to correct Todd Mitchem title
NEW YORK (TheStreet) - Message to pot stock speculators: O.PenVape, the company featured on CNBC in a feature about the marijuana industry, is a private company and not publicly traded. So if you are buying shares in a pot stock this morning, it is NOT stock in O.PenVape.
On Wednesday evening, CNBC aired an hour-long feature 'Marijuana in America: Colorado Pot Rush,' which included interviews with a handful of pot-industry companies. O.PenVape, a pen cigarette that vaporizes hash oil, stood out as one well-positioned company in Colorado's green rush. The company's pen heats up a cartridge of hash-oil, making it a sort of e-cigarette of pot.
Chief revenue officer Todd Mitchem told CNBC O.PenVape sells its cartridges for as much as $40 a pop and that it receives about 270,000 orders a month. Mitchem also told CNBC, as they toured O.PenVape's offices, that he believes it will become "the Google of cannabis."
Given O.PenVape's business model, its growth, and a market opportunity that Mitchem described as growing to $14 billion, it's not a surprise pot stock speculators are likely to want to get a piece of the company.Unfortunately, O.PenVape isn't publicly traded. On their investor page, one can ask for details on potential investment opportunities. This was the response to my query, which stated that I wasn't an accredited investor. Thank you for completing the O.PenVAPE Investor Information form. We will soon be launching a quarterly investor relations newsletter, and will include you on that distribution. In the interim, here is some basic information about our company and investment. Investment We are currently a private company, and our shares are not listed on any public exchange. Therefore, it is not now possible to purchase our shares in the public stock market. We recognize there is great investor interest in public MJ companies, even for those with little to no earnings or substantial assets. Our company has significant assets and a track record of strong revenue and earnings growth. Our future plans are to be listed on an exchange as a reputable cannabis company offering investors great potential for growth and ROI, and we look forward to making shares available to the general public at that time. We at O.penVAPE take pride on our products, business, and culture. We are grateful for your inquiry, and look forward to sharing more information with you in our upcoming investor newsletter. Sincerely, The O.penVAPE team

Best EDs Focus on Flow
More hospitals are operating or attempting to get involved in running urgent care centers. Some 51% operate urgent care centers or have a formal or informal relationship with one. An overwhelming 78%, however, said a freestanding ED is not in their plans.
Outpatient programs will be continually crucial as health systems try to relieve the pressure on the ED, and innovation is needed, says Newbold. "The ED is so complex, and you have different levels of care needed," he says. "We have big gaps that we have to close as an industry." Newbold says his system and others need to be innovative and "start setting up EDs in areas that will take the load off the current EDs, with 24-hour urgent care centers and convenience express care centers.
And while most healthcare leaders said they have programs or initiatives specifically aimed at addressing patient experience in the ED, nearly one in five does not.
"It is time to think fundamentally about better experiences for the patients," Newbold says. "Over time, people will be shopping for lower waiting times and compare satisfaction scores, like a retail experience."

Googling "citywide wireless" will get you a lot of links from 2004, brimming with optimism about the promise of municipal internet access. By 2006, however, the returns are fewer, and have a sour tone. From San Francisco to Philadelphia, ambitious city network plans stalled, hobbled by technical, logistical, and contractual issues.
Today, Minneapolis is one of few American cities whose WiFi plans are actually succeeding. Minneapolis studied the missteps of other urban networks before signing a 10-year contract with Minnesota-based USI Wireless. The private company manages and profits from the 59-square-mile Wireless Minneapolis network, while the city leverages it to deliver government services and build digital inclusion.
Minneapolis CIO Lynn Willenbring told The Atlantic how her city's wireless network helped Minneapolis through a disaster even before it was built. She also talked to us about bridging the digital divide and letting for-profit companies do what they do best.
What were your goals in developing a citywide wireless network?
First and foremost, our objective was to meet our institutional uses so that our field staff had mobile broadband access, whether they were public safety staff--police and fire--or crews fixing a pothole or inspecting buildings.
Secondarily, we recognized that we would like to help bridge the digital divide. So as part of our arrangement, the vendor, USI Wireless, can sell service to residential and commercial customers as well. We're just the anchor tenant on the network, but it's their network to own and operate. We just have a guaranteed minimum payment for the 10 years of the contract.
On your site, it says that the network played a critical role in enabling the city's rapid response to the I-35 bridge collapse in August 2007. Can you tell me more about that?
We were fortunate that the place where the bridge collapsed was one of the areas we'd built out for a pilot when we were evaluating our two finalists. It happened to be the site run by USI Wireless. So that gave us broadband access right on the shore of the river. The police and fire set up an emergency command center there, a tent and a parking lot, and we were able to access heavy GIS files and aerial photography and video--only because we had wireless broadband access in that spot.
We also utilized the network to put up some wireless cameras a day or so after the bridge collapsed, monitoring the recovery efforts in our emergency operations center, which was in City Hall. And, because the cameras had IP addresses, we could give those to any of our mutual aid partners or other parties who were assisting us. The Minnesota State Patrol was there, the Navy SEALS eventually came in to help remove underwater debris, and the IP addresses made it possible for any of those law-enforcement agencies to monitor the cameras.
Tell me more about why you decided to contract out the network to a private company.
When we initially came up with this ambitious project, we looked at some of the cities that had gone before us, as well as some of the missteps they took--which is why we decided that we didn't want to own and operate the network. Doing it ourselves just wasn't the best model; that wasn't our core competency.
When I talk to others around the country, one of the things they're most interested in is how we make this work financially. To make this work financially, there has got to be a mechanism for the service provider to make a profit. They need to market and provide service that they can provide the citizens of Minneapolis at a competitive rate; other than that, their profit can be unlimited.
Working with USI Wireless also helps ensure that there is coverage border to border. Police and fire respond everywhere. Inspectors are looking at every building throughout the city. We have to have that 100 percent coverage. That helps us where some cities have struggled, because the lower-income parts of the city don't necessarily attract the vendors to build out that network.
USI Wireless claims that Wireless Minneapolis offers benefits to the community that go far beyond what any city has implemented. Are you distinctly farther ahead of any other U.S. city in city wireless or digital inclusion?
I don't want to compare Minneapolis to other cities, but I do feel that we're leaders in this area around the country. There are a few other significant things, particularly around digital inclusion, that we built into our contract. In no particular order --
- We have accounts for 100 free community technology centers. Sometimes these sites are run by nonprofits, some of them are located in libraries and some are in park and rec facilities. Residents can use the computers there and go online, free.
- We also have 750 free one-month subscriptions, basically little voucher cards, that those community technology centers get. The idea is that they can give them to the volunteers that are doing the teaching and training.
- Our Digital Inclusion Fund started with half a million dollars in seed money and is managed by a citizen's group that gives out that money as grants. Five percent of the pre-tax revenues that USI Wireless gets from running the citywide wireless network goes into the fund to replenish it.
- Five percent of the nodes are free WiFi hotspots across the city. A great number of them are adjacent to parks. The idea was essentially that those hotspots are where people are likely to gather and use a laptop, and they want to have the freedom of WiFi.
Let's talk a more about the Digital Inclusion Fund. What do those grants pay for?

Alex Bedini was a master of the fluid, straight-ahead style of jazz that blossomed from the fingers of jazz guitar innovators like Django Reinhardt, Johnny Smith and Joe Pass. But Bedini didn't just play jazz. He was jazz. Everything about him – from his gravel-voice to his cool Van Dyke beard to his hipster sense of humor – exuded an aura of the jazzman. A natural performer, Bedini was a fixture to area nightclubs and festivals for nearly 30 years. It's painful to think of our music scene without him.

DSP Group And ProSyst Announce Joint DECT ULE/OSGi Solution For Smart Home And Smart Energy Market
SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DSP Group (Nasdaq:DSPG), a leading global provider of wireless chipset solutions for converged communications, and ProSyst, a leading provider of OSGi and open standards-based M2M middleware for Smart Home, Smart Energy and Automotive Telematics, announced today that the companies have jointly integrated DECT Ultra Low Energy (ULE) home security, control and automation solutions into ProSyst's mBS OSGi technology, thus providing a simple encapsulated gateway software environment with DECT ULE support. This solution dramatically reduces time to market and eases integration of DECT ULE capabilities for operators and service providers.
As part of this collaboration, DSP Group provided the semiconductor system, consisting of the DECT ULE gateway module powered by DSP Group's DECT baseband IC and a full DECT ULE stack. This system was integrated with ProSyst's mBS OSGi technology, providing local management and easy connectivity to the service provider. The devices built around DSP Group's DECT ULE IC and software stack are aligned with the latest DECT ULE and upper layer protocol standard draft. ProSyst's mBS OSGi design enables fast time to market, and minimizes the R&D effort required for the integration of DECT ULE based Smart Home and Smart Energy features into the gateways. The resulting system, the world's first DECT ULE/OSGi solution, is currently showcased at the CES 2013 exhibition in Las Vegas.
"By providing a simple, clean and standardized OSGi environment for gateway manufacturers, operators and service providers, we accelerate and facilitate the integration of advanced solutions and services and allow generation of new revenue streams at low cost and low risk," said Daniel Schellhoss, Executive VP at ProSyst. "The integration of DECT ULE technology into our product offering enhances simple and straightforward management of devices and application networks. It's been our pleasure to work with DSP Group, the market leader for DECT ULE technology, to achieve this goal," he concluded.

Audit: Tiny town's cash withdrawn at casino ATM
Updated On: Mar 11 2014 01:35:37 PM CDT
The state auditor has found more than $60,000 in improper or unsupported payments in the tiny western Iowa community of Grange Township, and a report links the former clerk to mismanaged money.
Auditor Mary Mosiman's report released Tuesday details improper payments to Peggy Powell, the township's clerk from 2006 through the end of 2013. She resigned in November.
The report shows more than $35,000 in ATM withdrawals and fees, some of which came from casino ATMs.
Such transactions were not necessary for a township that only pays for fire protection costs by check. There was also more than $13,000 of payments issued to Powell and her husband.
A public number for Powell was not listed. In her resignation letter, she says that she hopes to repay what she owes.

There was a historic moment Thursday in the State Senate. Douglas Henry, the longest serving member in the legislature's history, introduced his last bill today. His first was introduced in 1955.
The 87-year-old took a moment to dwell on his last contribution to Tennessee law.
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It's a pleasure to present this bill. It'll be my last presentation to you. My first one was in 1955."
And since then, Henry's been unstoppable. The Nashville conservative Democrat has been elected 11 consecutive times to the Senate.
The former insurance attorney, who has represented western Nashville in District 21, announced last year that he will not seek re-election.
His final bill was a mostly symbolic one, calling on colleges to respect the religious rights of students.
In a chamber where animated applaud is rare, every lawmaker rose to cheer.

January truck sales were somewhat muted by unseasonably cold temperatures, and old man winter decided to stick around for another month across most of the country, much to the chagrin of dealers. Consequently, the truck sales figures for February are not quite as robust as some may have hoped, but several brands still managed to eke out year over year February gains. Shrugging off the bad weather altogether was Ram, which racked up a robust 26-percent gain, no doubt aided by buyer interest in the new Ram 1500 EcoDiesel.
General Motors Dealers are likely eagerly anticipating the return of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, with just a single unit of the outgoing model being sold between the two of them in February. But the biggest percentage gainer was the Nissan Frontier, with a huge 111.7-percent gain for the month.
Ford F-Series – 55,882, Up 2.6 Percent
The F-Series remains solidly on top of the truck hill by more than 18,000 units. It managed to post a modest 2.6-percent February year-over-year gain, despite the cold weather. Expect sales to improve with warmer weather in the months ahead, as well as an updated Super Duty and all-new F-150 coming down the pike.
Chevrolet Silverado – 36,584, Down 12.1 Percent
The Silverado has had mixed success over the last few months with its redesigned 1/2-ton and updated 2015 HD models. Although solidly second in absolute volume, Ram continues to close the gap on the Silverado, making the prospect of Ram taking second place a distant, but probable possibility sometime in the year ahead.
Ram 1500/2500/3500 – 29,303, Up 26 Percent
The hard chill hitting much of the nation in February couldn't put the freeze on Ram sales, which surged a strong 26 percent for February. The highly anticipated 1500 EcoDiesel models are starting to ship from the Warren plant, and initial interest and demand from dealers was far stronger than Chrysler had initially anticipated. Whether the interest in the 1500 diesel is a brief flash in the pan or a sustained trend remains to be seen.
GMC Sierra – 14,232 – Up 0.7 Percent
The Sierra showed a modest gain in February, likely buoyed by its popularity in Sunbelt states and the West Coast, areas that largely avoided the fierce winter weather that affected much of the country. Greater availability of the 2015 HD models in the months ahead will likely bolster results in the spring and summer months.
Toyota Tacoma – 10,942, Down 13.5 Percent
The Tacoma still dominates in the midsize class, but its margin of dominance subsided somewhat in February, with sales down 13.5 percent. The Tacoma's reign will soon be challenged by the 2015 GM twins, the all-new Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon. It's unlikely that either model individually will outsell the Tacoma, but combined sales could bump the aging Tacoma off its privileged perch.
Toyota Tundra – 7923, Up 8.4 Percent
The Tundra continues to close the gap relative to its little brother, posting an 8.4-percent gain for February. Although Tundra sales are a fraction of those of most of the Detroit Three brands, they're significantly higher than Toyota's other Japanese-brand rival, the Nissan Titan, which will get a much-needed ground-up redesign for the 2015 model year.
Nissan Frontier – 5791, Up 111.7 Percent
The Frontier was the big winner for February in percentage gains, more than doubling its sales from a year before. It's still no imminent threat to the Tacoma, but sold more than half of Tacoma volume in February. Like the Tacoma, the current Frontier is a dated design, but recent content updates have kept it popular with customers.
Honda Ridgeline – 1143, Down 12.1 Percent
Honda's loveable oddball continues to find homes, even as the current model winds down in 2014. A new model is on its way, possibly coming in calendar 2016 as a 2017 model. Based on sketches released by Honda, the new Ridgeline looks like it will have a more conventional truck profile, although the unibody, transverse powertrain, and famous in-bed trunk are all expected to carry over.
Nissan Titan – 1117, Down 31.6 Percent
The Titan's fortunes for February were pretty much the exact inverse of the Frontier, with February sales down 31.6 percent. Dealers are likely marking the days off the calendar until the all-new 2015 model rolls into showrooms. The new model will bring a much broader variety of models, including a V-6, regular cab, and an optional Cummins V-8 diesel.
Chevrolet Colorado – 1, Down 99.9 Percent
The Colorado managed to move just a single model in February, but keep in mind the line that builds the Colorado has been shut down for more than a year. GM's Wentzville, Missouri, plant is gearing up for the 2015s, and like the new Titan, dealers can't get the new Colorado soon enough.
GMC Canyon – 0
The Canyon flatlined in February, with either all the remaining inventory sold off or the fierce winter weather keeping bargain shoppers away. The handsome 2015 model will likely be a big draw for GMC dealers once it comes out later in the year, and the optional 2.8-liter turbodiesel coming for the 2016 model year is just icing on the cake.
because rams are cheap and they discount the hell outta em!
Fords the best
Don't think the cold has nothing to do with it ! Who wants to pay $40-60k for a truck ?!
Shocker. Fords are nice but so damn expensive.
this is exactly what they said "The testers indicated to us that both trucks were 100% untouched, and exactly as they rolled off the assembly line. They also said that they have to stagger which way they twist the Ford because they're worried the frame is going to incur irreparable damage."
Numerous test proves you wrong!!
That box on that truck was at the breaking point, I believe MotorTrend knows a little bit more about it then you..lol and the ones testing!! the Ford was getting ready to break but yet yea thats what you wnt, That makes sence!!
You clearly are wrong about that, That thing was getting ready to be damaged thats why that stopped,, Moron!!
Haha if your trying to compare the ram and the ford. You don't want a super stiff frame like the Ram, you need some flexibility in your frame so it lasts longer.
Fiiiiuuu! Fiiiiuuu! Si bas en esta camioneta y t chiflan! No pienses q es a ti si no ala camioneta!! Hermosa!!
Have owned all of the big three, Dodge being the latest (2013 Ram), its by far the best truck I have ever owned, of course its the newest as well... Most dependable? Ford.
Dodge still has more awards lol Ford only sells so many bc there cheap for company's to buy thats the only reason
Mopar all the way
Mopar #1
WOW dodge sold 10 trucks!!!
Ram all the way!!
They must be junk, I guess that's why everybody buys them! Lol
They're way too expensive, prices for a pick up truck are out of control. It's a truck not a Porsche 911 turbo. Haha.

Merci de le connaitre vous aussi.
Now it does, when i first clicked, it said it was broken
link worked fine
Ford owners are some haters for sure.
Dylan Justyn Ram for the win!
Ram guy through and through. My Laramie has yet to let me down
This Ryan Ry Bronson sure seems to know everything lmfao what a loser I am impressed that he can type and breathe at the same time
Funny gm and dodge has their "new trucks" out. Glad to see that's all they have. See ya next year.........
As a ford guy, I will say the new ram truck is quite nice but doubling sales is not a big deal when you're the record loss leader.
Ford all the way best pick up ever built
Go teach your singing lessons or whatever you do. Leave the auto industry to the big boys who know fact from fictitious numbers you and your fan boys create. There is no crying just facts your are to dumb to comprehend
People buying Dodge I guess they want to walk
the tundra has been recalled more than any other truck!! wierd
its funny to see these GM and Ford fanboys crying!!!
Your a moron!!!!
hey here is your ford..
Fiat made them take the name dodge off the outside now its a better seller. Not to worry ford will reign again. It is going to warm up soon and people brains will thaw.lmao
Michael it sure shows how much of a moron you truly are!!
Go Ram Go
Worth driving which might be why they can't compete with Ram or any of the domestic,, Moron!! Funny look whats in the Tundra the 5.7 which was copied from Chrysler!! Toyota frames bend, unlike the Ram!!
You can only pull the wool over peoples eyes for so long until they finally wise up and say no more.
Yeah because the 50k price tag doesnt have any effect on why truck sales are flat lining.
There is no durability in a Dodge.
Art Dossett
Dodge looks good but I don't know about the durability so I will just go Ford
Here we go with the idiotic comments about fleet sales. Look at the percentage of fleet sales you dummy. Numbers don't lie. Ford sells the least to fleets.
This creates parts supply manufacturing jobs, the big three build them fail 500km off warranty. So ya need non factery parts.
Lots of finace and insurance jobs created..
Ford all the way
Ram is making great progress good to see that.
LOL the Ram. what a joke. Go buy a Tundra and have something worth driving.

Alex Salmond regrets past support for banker Fred Goodwin
First Minister Alex Salmond has told BBC Scotland he regretted his previous support for the former Royal Bank of Scotland boss Fred Goodwin.
Mr Salmond wrote to him when he was the bank's chief executive offering the Scottish government's assistance in the takeover of Dutch bank ABN-Amro.
That takeover contributed to the bank's massive losses and the need to bail it out with £45bn in taxpayers' money.
Mr Salmond was speaking after Mr Goodwin was stripped of his knighthood.
The SNP leader said that with hindsight he would have done things differently.
The Queen cancelled and annulled Mr Goodwin's title on the advice of the forfeiture committee - whose members include top civil servants and the head Treasury lawyer - in a decision welcomed by party leaders.
The move has been widely criticised by business and political figures, including ex-Labour Chancellor Alistair Darling who said the decision appeared to have been taken "on a whim".
Mr Salmond said that, while the decision to remove the knighthood was correct, he suspected the UK government had used the news to divert from the serious issues with the economy.
Here in one of Scotland's smartest suburbs there is some sympathy for Fred Goodwin.
He was last seen late on Tuesday afternoon, sweeping out through the electronic gates of his large house in The Grange in a black Jaguar.
There are plenty of bankers behind the high walls of these tree-lined streets who feel that Mr Goodwin's treatment has been harsh.
Yes, they say, he was an arrogant, hubristic dealmaker but at a time when arrogant, hubristic dealmakers were all the rage, feted by many of the same politicians who are now cheering his downfall.
As RBS chief executive, Mr Goodwin cemented Edinburgh's reputation as a financial powerhouse, to the delight of staff and shareholders who grew rich, on paper at least.
The Treasury was more than happy to take and spend the millions of pounds in taxes paid by RBS.
For others though, including some of the more old-fashioned bankers in the Scottish capital, many of whom lost fortunes when boom turned to bust, Fred Goodwin deserves the opprobrium.
He was the epitome, they argue, of what went wrong with banking, helping to turn an industry with a reputation for being safe, solid and secure into a casino.
Either way, when the crash came, the man who was Sir Fred had the furthest to fall.
The first minister said: "While the decision is correct let's have a statement of what are the criteria for people in the financial sector, first, keeping honours - if they were involved in the financial collapse. Secondly, how about wider across society?
"I mean what are the criteria by which people retain seats in the House of Lords who have got serious criminal convictions?
"Now, if you start down this road, and this road has now been started down, then there are a lot of folk who want reasonable answers to these questions.
"I don't see any consistency of approach coming from the Westminster government and in particular that gives me the great suspicion that what we have here is a dreamt-up, convenient, media diversion."
Mr Salmond added: "What is the diversion from? The serious issues in the economy and secondly, of course, the question of how you justify in the public sector the mass of workers being offered one settlement and people in the financial sector, who are in the public sector, being offered quite different circumstances."
Asked about the support he gave to Mr Goodwin when he led the bank, Mr Salmond said he would done "things differently".
He said: "If we all had our time again we'd look at things differently. I think there are very few people who can justifiably say that they anticipated the full extent of the financial collapse - the financial crisis.
"I mean I know some people claim they did but I think if you examine the record you'll find there's very few people on the planet - and I am certainly not one of them - who anticipated it.
"So, yeah, of course, if we had the benefit of hindsight we'd do things differently and I am sure that is true of lots and lots of people."Racing champion
Scottish Labour leader Johann Lamont said the first minister had to apologise for backing "light-touch regulation" in the Scots financial sector, during the 2007 Holyrood election campaign.
She welcomed the first minister's comments about Mr Goodwin, but added: "Alex Salmond should really apologise for his supporting even lighter bank regulations.
"Labour has already apologised for not being tough enough on the banks, and it is time the SNP did the same."
There had been a clamour for Mr Goodwin, who was RBS chief executive in 2008 when the financial crisis hit the bank, to be stripped of his title which was awarded for "services to banking" under the previous Labour government in 2004.
But the Institute of Directors has warned that the move was creating "anti-business hysteria".
Former Formula 1 motor racing world champion Sir Jackie Stewart - a friend of Mr Goodwin - said he thought the former bank boss had been made a scapegoat.
"No single person or even any single bank created the biggest financial recession in modern times," he said.
"To have this stripped, I think, is poor for the constitution and very dangerous for the future."

Power Saving Mini-PC from Israel
The ENC-iGLX is a tiny PC computer based on AMD's Geode LX processor; about the size of a paperback, the ENC-iGLX is available under the Fit-PC brand with Gentoo or Ubuntu Linux preinstalled, although users can order Windows if they prefer.
The Fit-PC by Israel's CompuLab consumes a frugal 3 to 5 Watts of power, according to the manufacturer. The PC comes with an AMD LX800-CPU clocked at 500 MHz on a mini-mainboard by AMD, and has 256MB RAM. Thanks to the PC's x86 architecture, any popular Linux distribution, and deven Microsoft Windows will run on the machine. The integrated Geode LX Display Controller supports display resolutions up to 1920 x 1400 pixels. The 2.5 inch hard disk has a capacity of 40GB. External devices can be attached via two USB 2.0 ports. The Fit-PC has two Fast Ethernet connectors, something really special in the tiny PC class.
Tiny power-saver with Linux preload: the Fit-PC (source CompuLab).
The "ENC-iGLX" is available directly from the manufacturer's website for US$ 285, along with the similarly configured "ENC-X270". It has an XScale PXA270-CPU clocked at 312 MHz, 512MB Flash memory and 64MB SDRAM. In addition to two network ports, the "ENC-X270" also has 802.11 (b) WLAN functionality. It is even more frugal than the Fit-PC consuming just 1 to 3 Watts per hour according to the vendor. The ENC-X270 is also available directly from Compulab where it is listed at an RRP of US$ 180.
(Jan Rähm)
Watts per hour?Since Watts is defined as Joules per second, how can something have Watts per second? I guess you just meant Watts. A 1-3 Watt PC is excellent though - would make a very "green" server!
