Fermat's Last Theorem
September 22,
Searles Science Building, Room 315
This lecture centers on the solution of Fermat's Last Theorem, a mathematical assertion from the 17th century that was established by modern methods twenty years ago after resisting the efforts of professional and amateur mathematicians for 350 years. It will explain the formulation of the problem and recapitulate the history leading up to the announcement of a solution by Andrew Wiles in 1993 and the final step of the proof by Richard Taylor and Andrew Wiles in 1994. Some of the new mathematical ideas used in the proof will be summarized at the end of the lecture.
Ken Ribet will present the Cecil T. and Marion C. Holmes Mathematics Lecture sponsored by the Mathematics Department.
Ribet is a member of the editorial boards of several book series and research journals. He was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1997 and the National Academy of Sciences in 2000. He was awarded the Fermat Prize in 1989 and received an honorary PhD from Brown University in 1998. Ribet was inducted as a Vigneron d'honneur by the Jurade de Saint Emilion in 1988. He received his department's Distinguished Teaching Award in 1985.
Dynamical Models of Locomotion
October 3,
Searles Science Building, Room 315
Dynamical systems theory uses normal forms as simple models for empirical observations. This lecture focuses upon stable limit cycles as models of animal locomotion. Utilizing motion capture data of running cockroaches and people and flying fruit flies and mosquitoes, we test the anchors and templates hypotheses formulated by Full and collaborators. These hypotheses propose that animals have evolved so that their motion resembles a low dimensional dynamical system, and that control is based upon a small number of quantities. This lecture will introduce these hypotheses and reformulate them as a statement about the motion of a dynamical system near a periodic orbit. It will then describe the strategy we developed to analyze motion capture data from this perspective. We end with new questions about stochastic perturbations and data driven models of dynamical systems.
John Guckenheimer, Abram R. Bullis Professor in Mathematics, Cornell University, will present the Dan E. Christie Mathematics Lecture. Lecture is sponsored by the Mathematics Department and Digital and Computational Studies.
John Guckenheimer started his career in pure mathematics, and is now one of the leaders of applied dynamical systems. Last year, he and co-author Phil Holmes were awarded the AMS Leroy P. Steele Prize for Mathematical Exposition for their 1983 book, Nonlinear Oscillations, Dynamical Systems, and Bifurcations of Vector Fields (Springer-Verlag). John is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Association for Advancement of Science, the American Mathematical Society, and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, where he served as president in 1997-98. His research encompasses mathematical biology, systems with multiple time scales, and computational algorithms.
This lecture integrates mathematics, biology, and digital and computational ways of thinking.
Multiple Stable States: Theory and Evidence
October 9,
Druckenmiller Hall, Room 020
One of the most vexing problems in ecology is how distinctly different communities, such as mussel beds and seaweed stands that occur on rocky shores in Maine, can occur in the same ecosystem. These communities often persist for long periods, yet small, temporary shifts in environmental conditions can cause an unexpected tipping of the system and one type of community may be replaced by another. How can alternative communities be both persistent and yet so susceptible? The theory of these systems, known as multiple stable states, is well understood, but whether multiple stable states actually exist in nature has remained a hotly debated subject and, not surprisingly, definitive examples continue to be elusive. The past decade has seen resurgent interest in the topic because of large-scale changes in the species composition of many ecosystems around the globe and the extent to which anthropogenic activities and climate change may underlie these sudden shifts. The occurrence of multiple stable states has implications for how we manage ecosystems and our basic understanding of the roles of historical and contemporary processes in determining patterns of organismal distribution and abundance. I will present the results from the past 18 years of an ongoing project investigating whether rockweed stands and mussel beds represent alternative community states in sheltered bays of the Gulf of Maine.
Dr. Steve Dungeon is Professor of Biology, at the California State University, Northridge. He received his PhD from the University of Maine in 1992. His research interests focus on the unique biological features of clonal algae and invertebrates, the evolution of life history and morphological traits and how these traits influence the dynamics of the communities in which they live. The temperate rocky intertidal zone is the experimental system used to explore these concepts.

Book Release Celebration - David Collings "Stolen Future, Broken Present: The Human Significance of Climate Change"
October 22,
Moulton Union, Main Lounge
Join us for a discussion and reception celebrating the release of Bowdoin Professor of English David Collings' new book, Stolen Future, Broken Present: The Human Significance of Climate Change, moderated by Collin Roesler, Associate Professor of Earth and Oceanographic Science at Bowdoin.
In Stolen Future, Collings argues that we are virtually out of time to prevent severe, irreversible climate change - with a devastating effect on how we think about the future.
Nearly everything we do, Collings says, is premised on the assumption that the world we know will endure into the future and provide a sustaining context for our activities. But today the future of a viable biosphere, and thus the purpose of our present activities, is put into question. A disappearing future leads to a broken present, a strange incoherence in the feel of everyday life.
We thus face the unprecedented challenge of salvaging a basis for our lives today. That basis may be found in our capacity to assume an infinite responsibility for ecological disaster. By owning disaster and accepting our small place within the inhuman forces of the biosphere, we may discover how to live with responsibility and serenity whatever may come.
David Collings teaches courses in British Romanticism, critical theory, sexuality and gender, and environmental studies. He is the author of Wordsworthian Errancies: The Poetics of Cultural Dismemberment (1994) and Monstrous Society: Reciprocity, Discipline, and the Political Uncanny, c. 1780-1848 (2009), among others.

EFI adds AirPrint to corporate copiers and printers
AirPrint is wonderful for those of us who can use it to print to home printers, but until now, the technology has been useless for most corporate copier / printers. That's all set to change now that EFI is providing support for AirPrint to its signature Fiery print servers.
The PrintMe Connect software enables direct wireless printing from any iOS 4.2 mobile device. The software is free to download, and it works for printing to any Fiery-driven printer. According to EFI, "It is a software application that runs as a proxy on a Windows system to enable AirPrint printing for Fiery-driven printers with System 8/8e or later software version." AppleInsider notes that PrintMe Connect expands AirPrint to work with large format, high end and multifunction printers in the enterprise, and that there are more than 250,000 printers in corporate offices that will benefit from this free update.
Up to this point, only HP has announced printers that are officially supported by AirPrint, so it's exciting to see that the iOS printing standard is now making it to the big leagues with EFI. Do you work in an office where your print jobs are routed through a Fiery print server? Let us know if your corporation allows you to use PrintMe Connect for printing from your iOS device.

Romney Brushes Aside Bizarre $10,000 Bet
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Mitt Romney brushed aside a bizarre moment from Saturday's Republican presidential debate when he tried to make a $10,000 bet with Rick Perry about a detail in Romney's book No Apology.
Romney told Fox News on Monday that the bet was an exaggeration and that it was similar to when someone says, "I'll bet you a million bucks."
|Mitt Romney
On Saturday, Perry said Romney's book claimed that his Massachusetts health care mandate should be a model for the United States of America.
"You know what, you've raised that before, Rick, and you're still wrong," Romney said. "Rick, I'll tell you what, 10,000 bucks? $10,000 bet?""I'm not in the betting business, but I'll ... I'll show you the book," Perry said. After the debate, Romney said Ann, his wife, said the former Massachusetts governor did a lot of things well but that betting wasn't one of them. Perry suggested after the debate that $10,000 was pocket change for Romney -- who is a former Bain Capital CEO -- and that having that kind of money to "throw down" seemed "very out of the ordinary."
Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz criticized Romney on Monday for his comments. "I mean, he called a payroll tax cut of $1,500 for working families a little Band-Aid, said that corporations are people, casually threw out a $10,000 bet the other night like it's a dollar or $5 for other people," Wasserman Schultz said on Fox News. -- Written by Joe Deaux in New York. >Contact by Email. >Follow Joe Deaux on Twitter.

From Encyclopedia
A graph is a pictorial representation of the relationship between two quantities. A graph can be anything from a simple bar graph that displays the measurements of various objects to a more complicated graph of functions in two or three dimensions. The former shows the relationship between the kind of object and its quantity; the latter shows the relationship between input and output. Graphing is a way to make information easier for a viewer to absorb. The simplest graphs show the number of many objects. For example, a bar graph might name the months of the year along a horizontal axis and show numbers (for the number of days in each month) along a vertical axis. Then a rectangle (or bar) is drawn above each month. The height of the bar might indicate the number of days in that month on which it rained, or on which a person exercised, or on which the temperature rose above 90 degrees. See the generic example of a bar graph below (top right). Another simple kind of graph is a circle graph or pie graph, which shows fractions or percentages. In this kind of graph, a circle is divided into pieshaped sectors. Each sector is given a label and indicates the fraction of the total area that goes with that label. See the generic example of a pie graph below (top middle). A pie chart might be used to display the percentages of a budget that are allotted to various expenditures. If the sector labeled "medical bills" takes up two-tenths of the area of the circle, that means that two-tenths, or 20 percent, of the budget is devoted to medical expenses. Usually the percentages are written on the sectors along with their labels to make the graph easier to read. In both bar graphs and pie graphs, the reader can immediately pick out the largest and smallest categories without having to search through a chart or list, making it easy to compare the relative sizes of many objects simultaneously. Often the two quantities being graphed can both be represented numerically. For example, student scores on examinations are often plotted on a graph, especially if there are many students taking the exam. In such a graph, the numbers on the horizontal axis represent the possible scores on the exam, and the numbers on the vertical axis represent numbers of students who earned that score. The information could be plotted as a simple bar graph. If only the top point of each bar is plotted and a curve is drawn to connect these points, the result is a line graph. See the generic example of a line graph on the pevious page (top left). Although the points on the line between the plotted points do not correspond to any pieces of information, a smooth line can be easier to understand than a large collection of bars or dots. Graphs become slightly more complicated when one (or both) of the quantities in the graph can have continuous values rather than a discrete set. A common example of this is a quantity that changes over time. For example, a scientist might be observing the rate of growth of bacteria. The rates could be plotted so that the horizontal axis displays units of time and the vertical axis displays numbers (how many bacteria exist). Then, for instance, the point (3,1000) would mean that at "time 3" (which could mean three o'clock, or three seconds after starting, or various other times, depending on the units being used and the starting point of the experiment) there were one thousand bacteria in the sample. The rise and fall of the graph show the increases and decreases in the number of bacteria. In this case, even though only a finite set of points represent actual data, the remaining points do have a natural interpretation. For instance, suppose that in addition to the point (3,1000), the graph also contains the point (4,1500) and that both of these points correspond to actual measurements. If the scientist joins all of the points on the graph by a line, then the point (3.5,1200) might lie on the graph, or perhaps the point (3.5,1350). There are many different lines that can be drawn through a collection of points. Looking at the overall shape of the data points helps the scientist decide which line is the most reasonable fit. In the previous example, the scientist could estimate that at time 3.5, there were 1200 (or 1350) bacteria in the sample. Thus graphing can be helpful in making estimates and predictions. Sometimes the purpose for drawing a graph may not be to view the data already known but to construct a mathematical model that will allow one to analyze data and make predictions. One of the simplest models that can be constructed from a set of data is called a best-fit line. Such a line is useful in situations in which the data are roughly linear—that is, they are increasing or decreasing at a roughly constant rate but do not fall precisely on a line. (See graph on the previous page, bottom right.) A best-fit line can be a very useful tool for analyzing data because lines have very simple formulas describing their behavior. If, for instance, one has collected data up to time 5 and wishes to predict what the value will be at time 15, the value 15 can be inserted into the formula for the line to derive an estimation. One can also determine how good an estimate is likely to be by computing the correlation factor for the data. The correlation factor is a quantity that measures how close the set of data is to being linear; that is, how good a "fit" the best-fit line actually is. One of the most common uses of graphs is to display the information encoded in a function. A function, informally speaking, is an operation or rule that can be applied to numbers. Functions are usually graphed in the cartesian plane (that is, the x,y -plane) with the horizontal or x -axis representing the input variable and the vertical or y -axis representing the output variable. The graph of a function differs from the other types of graphs described so far in that all the points on the graph represent actual information. A concrete relationship, usually given by a mathematical formula, connects the two objects being analyzed. For example, the "squaring" function takes numbers and squares them. Thus an input of the number 1 corresponds to an output of 1; an input of 2 corresponds to an output of 4; an input of −7 corresponds to an output of 49; and so on. Therefore, the graph of this function contains the points (1, 1), (2, 4), (−7, 49), and infinitely many others. Does the point (10, 78) lie on this graph? To determine the answer, examine which characteristics all the points on the graph have in common. Any point on the graph of a function represents an input-output pair, with the x -coordinate representing input and the y -coordinate representing output. With the squaring function, each output value is the square of the corresponding input value, so on the graph of the squaring function, each y -coordinate must be the square of the corresponding x -coordinate. Because 78 is not the square of 10, the point (10, 78) does not lie on the graph of the squaring function. It is traditional to name graphs with an equation rather than with words. The equation of any graph, regardless of whether it is the graph of a function, is meant to be a perfect description of the graph—it should tell the viewer the relationship between the x - and y -coordinates of the numbers being graphed. For example, the equation of the graph of the squaring function is y = x ² because the y -coordinate of any point on the graph is the square of the x -coordinate. The line that passes through the point (0, 3) and slants upwards with slope 4 (that is, at a rate of four units up for every one unit to the right) has equation y = 4x + 3. This indicates that for every point on the graph, the y -coordinate is 3 more than 4 times the x -coordinate. An equation of a graph has many uses: it is not only a description of the graph but also a mechanism for finding points on the graph and a test for determining whether a given point lies on the graph. For example, to find out whether the point (278, 3254) lies on the line y = 4x + 3, simply insert (278, 3254), resulting in the inequality 3254 ≠4(278) + 3. Because t

Answers:1) The point where a graph crosses the horizontal axis is called the y-intercept In my experience, the horizontal axis is usually the x axis and the vertical axis is usually the y axis. This means that the point where the straight line intercepts the vertical axis is called the y-intercept. 2) A directly proportional relationship can be represented by a straight-line graph that passes through the origin. See, for example, the link below (in particular, the graph at the bottom of the page). 3) If a straight-line graph has a gradient of zero, then it must be horizontal. In the xy plane, the gradient of a line is normally defined as the change in y divided by the change in x when moving along the line. The conclusion is obvious if the change in y is zero. 4) If a graph has a positive gradient, then it represents a directly proportional relationship. Not all lines with a positive gradient pass through the origin. 5, 6, 7) The gradient of the line joining the points (-1, 1) and (1, -3) is... Using the usual definition, the change in y from 1 to -3 is -4. The change in x from -1 to 1 is +2. Now, -4 divided by +2 is...
Answers:No problem. Most graph paper has borders on all sides. Use the left border to include the scale for Y1, and the right border to include the scale for Y2. The two y_scales can be anything you want and the only thing they have in common is that they have the same x_axis scale. In effect this is really combining two separate graphs on one sheet of graph paper. Label each line or curve showing which y_axis it relates to. I have even used a yellow highlighter to highlight the right border scale and it's corresponding data line or curve. I also used a blue highlighter for the left border scale and data.
Answers:y = x - 2 Since this is a line, you only need two points to be able to graph it. The x- and y- intercepts are easy to find and the two most critical points on the line. x-intercept: y = 0 0 = x - 2 Add 2 to both sides: 2 = x First point to graph: (2, 0) y-intercept: x = 0 y = 0 - 2 y = -2 Second point to graph: (0, -2) Graph the two points: (0, -2) & (2, 0) Draw a line through these two points. Add arrow heads to the ends of the line to indicate the line continues in both directions. You're done.

text: 000 FXUS63 KILX 222323 AFDILX Area Forecast Discussion NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL 523 PM CST Mon Dec 22 2014 .SHORT TERM...(Tonight) ISSUED AT 259 PM CST MON DEC 22 2014 Short-wave trough evident on 19z/1pm water vapor imagery over Kansas/Oklahoma will lift northeastward tonight, reaching central Illinois by 12z Tue. A large area of light rain associated with this feature is currently ongoing across the KILX CWA: however, radar imagery is showing the precip becoming more scattered upstream across Missouri into southern Illinois. With a continued moist flow and strong lift ahead of the upper wave, think numerous showers will re-develop behind the main rain area later this afternoon into the evening. As a result, will continue to carry categorical PoPs across the board through the evening. After that, models agree that a mid-level dry slot will approach from the southwest later tonight into Tuesday morning. Both the 12z NAM and the 17z HRRR suggest the showers will taper off and come to an end from southwest to northeast across the area by dawn Tuesday. Will continue likely to categorical PoPs along/north of I-74 through the entire night, but will drop to just chance PoPs further south across the rest of the CWA after midnight. Southerly winds of 10 to 15 mph will continue tonight, preventing temps from dropping much. Overnight lows will be several degrees above numeric guidance, ranging from around 40 across the north to the middle 40s south of I-70. && .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Monday) ISSUED AT 259 PM CST MON DEC 22 2014 Model guidance continues to throw us curve balls on how the current system will depart the area on Christmas Eve. Their spread in the details and lack of run-to-run consistency continues to make our confidence in Christmas Eve`s snow potential much lower than average. There has been more than a trivial trend back toward a snowier day in the latest runs, although this trend is far from unanimous. The upshot is that that travel difficulties could exist for Christmas Eve and it is prudent to monitor later forecasts closely. While confidence is too low to issue any winter weather headlines at this time, have issued a Special Weather Statement highlighting the potential as well as the uncertainty. However, the main snow threat is still a couple days off. Until then, we will have to contend with periods of rain, although confidence is growing that sizable breaks in the rainy periods will occur. A dry slot wrapping around the vertically stacked upper/surface low should support most of Tuesday, and even into Tuesday evening, ending up dry. This dry slot is showing up nicely as a nearly cloud free area over the central High Plains, although we do not expect skies to be quite so clear by the time the drier airmass arrives here. The initial upper/surface lows will dissipate with time as a more vigorous wave rounds the base of the mean Plains trof later Tuesday into Wednesday. Our main snow concern arrives as the above mentioned wave heads northeast, developing a new surface cyclone as it does so. While all models still keep the track of the surface low east of the forecast area, the track has shifted far enough west in most model solutions that the deformation zone on its back side tracks across at least east-central and southeast Illinois. However, a wide range of model solutions exist in the timing, track, and precipitation intensity within this deformation zone. It is also unclear if all the precipitation within the deformation zone will fall as snow, or it will fall as rain or a rain/snow mix for a time. Obviously, this is critical to snow accumulation potential. While most guidance has surface temperatures above freezing through Wednesday afternoon, the "warm" air depth is very shallow, generally no more than 1000-1500 feet above the ground. If snowfall rates are high enough, they will quickly be able to erode this warm layer. There are signs that convective banding within the deformation zone is possible, which would certainly provide high enough rates to support a quicker change over to snow. In any event, due to the persistent uncertainty, have gone with no more than an inch or two of snowfall on the back side of the system, mainly east of I-55. If the latest model trends hold, these totals will need to be boosted. The next couple waves/precipitation threat have slowed a bit from previous days, centering more on Saturday/Sunday than Friday/Saturday time frame. Temperatures just ahead of the lead wave support rain or a rain/snow mix, with conditions eventually cooling enough for all snow. Precipitation amounts during this time appear fairly minor for the moment. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Tuesday evening) ISSUED AT 523 PM CST MON DEC 22 2014 Cloudy skies and pcpn will continue at all TAF sites tonight. Based on model data and radar trends, looks like pcpn might end between after midnight and just before morning. When the pcpn ends, expecting cigs to rise to above 1kft at all sites. However, vis will remain around 4-5sm with fog. These conditions are expected to continue into the morning hours. The HRRR model is showing clearing in the morning moving from southwest to northeast. Not confident with this, so will just have cigs increasing to higher MVFR levels...about 2kft and lasting until end of TAF period. Winds will be southeast to south through the period at around 10-14kts. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && $$ SHORT TERM...Barnes LONG TERM...Bak AVIATION...Auten

Something I've noticed tonight while sat here doing a last minute post, this site makes a lot of DB calls on every page is really slowing it down whenever a search engine spider decides to run its eyes over every topic.
If nothing else it would be well worth researching ways to reduce the amount of data a SE spider sees to the bare minimum thus reducing the load times on the site and improving response times. It wouldn't hurt the sites page-ranking either :)
There are mods for this in phpBB2 and I'd guess that even this ported version has a mod somewhere that would help.
Just something to bear in mind..

Honda Ridgeline SUT
suvguy2005 Posts: 19
Still not seeing any Ridgelines on the road in the greater NY/NJ area. I talk of the Ridge at work and not too many people know about it or know what I'm talking about. Odd. Local dealer here has 26 Ridge's available. I see inventories going up at other dealers around here as well. Also, no newspaper Ads for the Ridge at all from the same Honda dealers who advertise every weekend in the regional newspapers. I'm starting to think its some sort of weird tactic by Honda.
I've been reading the posts here and it sure sounds like patience will be rewarded greatly once the prices come down to what a lot of the posters here feel that they should be...
in my Ridgeline "wish list" for the future, I mentioned possibly doing a regular cab model with an 8' bed—and possibly even having side bed doors, to set it apart from other pickup trucks with 8' beds.
Well, back in 1961 Chevy offered a rear-engined Corvair-based pickup called the "Rampside." Check out the link:
Like the Ridgeline's 2-way tailgate—an old idea first seen on domestic station wagons back in the '70s, maybe it's time to reinvestigate this idea too?
Also, check out the link "Styling Buck" on the Loadside pickup, in which an under the bed floor storage area is accessed from the side of the truck.
Some neat ideas here.
bleecch, it looks like my '66 Econoline Pickup.
It beats the Corvair hands down, I can sit in the driver's seat to change plugs.
When the carb needs work, just move over to the passenger's seat.
3 on the tree too. Now the truth is out--there is stiff competition here for looks with the Ridgeline.
shutterbug101 Posts: 2I just recently drove a Ridgeline and decided it is the truck I want. However, the major drawback is the lack of aftermarket cab-high topper or shell. I contacted two aftermarket dealers in the area and they did not know of one. Anyone else have information on the subject?
I was serious. I do think Honda drew some inspiration from these kinds of vehicles for their front end styling.
Look at the absolutely in-your-face, upright, flat plane that the International-like Ridgeline's grille is on, and look how the Ridgeline's front fenders are pulled back, much like the International shown here. Plus the wheels are set back, again much like this International with the set back front axle. I really think Honda was trying to capture some of the "big-rig" feeling with their truck. I'm not saying they were totally successful, but I do think that's what they were trying for.
xwesx Fairbanks, AlaskaPosts: 8,686I agree. I never would have drew the parallel myself, but I think your assessment is spot-on. The grill/light look of the International is very similar to that of the Ridgeline.
I know I am an odd duck, but I thought that the pickup versions of old '60s vans were far more functional/practical than the pickups themselves. The biggest reason is just that they made such better use of space! Nevermind that they were hideously out of proportion, they were functional. I love my '69 Econoline van, but if it was a pickup version of itself, it would be even more functional than it already is... and all in a very compact package. It is about 2 feet or more so shorter than my standard cab, 8' bed '69 C20 and has just as much cargo and cab space if you forgive the intrusion of the "dog house."
Okay, so I am hopelessly off topic. What were we talking about again?2010 Subaru Forester, 2011 Ford Fiesta, 1969 Chevrolet C20 Pickup, 1969 Ford Econoline 100, 1976 Ford F250 Pickup, 1974 Ford Pinto Wagon
A couple observations from an owner of one of these beasts:
1) There is no place for the engine heat to go, except into the cab
2) The speedometer is so far away from the back of the tranny, you have to custom fabricate the cable and guide, this was about $100 5 years ago.
Other than that, you are right.
Interestingly, my E-100 Pickup has a 400 lb cast iron plate bolted underneath the bed between the fuel tank and the bottom of the bed. This is to keep a little bit of weight on the rear end.
Sorry way off topic.
varmint Posts: 6,326I've seen vans with a custom conversion into pick-up duty. The last one had a fifth wheel in the back for heavy duty towing. I believe it was used for towing horse trailers. Essentially, the front two rows of seats were saved, but the rear of the vehicle had been hacked off to make a pickup bed. A rear wall for the cab was fabricated from diamond plate.
Do you or anyone you know tow with the Ridgeline? I have a 2 horse trailer, that when full has a weight of 4600#s. The salesguy said "not a problem". Of course they're going to say that! I do not pull very often and actually, would only be pulling one horse most of the time which brings the weight down to around 3900-4000#s. I will mostly be using this as my daily vehicle. I'm so torn as Toyota has a great deal on the Tundra right now BUT IT"S HUGE.
What are folks getting for MPG?
Thanks for the help
I live in the Hudson River Valley which is fairly smooth with mild hills. I do tow back to Western Mass on occasion, maybe 7 times a year. That trip takes me over the Berkshires on the Mass Pike., still not huge inclines compared to say the Rockies, but my old Chevy truck had to work to go up them. It is an 89 small 8, 1/2 ton that is really just tired. I would most likely make that trip with just 1 horse most of the time. I would like just one vehicle instead of 2. I love the Tundra but I'm a sales gal who is on the road everyday. A big truck just makes it more "work" to go to work.
Thanks for the input
Anyone else with thoughts? These Ridgelines are so new around here that I can't find anyone locally to ask.
gearhead1 Posts: 408HONDA NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT HOW EASILY THE BED SCRATCHES WITH ANY KIND OF CARGO. THE BLACK SURFACE IS SO THIN THE WHITE FIBERGLASS SHOWS UP EVEN WITH MINOR SCRATCHES
I've heard from a Honda factory worker that motor oil will fix up those scratches. Let us know if it works. Personally I will be using a 4 X 5 foot piece of plywood in the bottom of the bed for those occassions when I haul things that would leave deep scratches. You could paint the plywood flat black and it wouldn't even be noticable.
4wdave Posts: 16"how funny, do you normally take Ashlan east and then Academy north to go home?" Yes
"I saw a white Ridge as I traveled home last week, the only one I have seen so far in Fresno.
Glad you like your Ridgeline. How did it do in the snow the last few days?" Not enough snow to notice. I see a woman driving down the hill in a white Ridgeline every day when I'm on my way up.

Baillieu's exit leaves bigger issues unsolvedPUBLISHED: 06 Mar 2013 21:15:00 | UPDATED: 07 Mar 2013 12:03:15PUBLISHED: 06 Mar 2013 PRINT EDITION: 07 Mar 2013
Mathew Dunckley
Ted Baillieu's departure from politics was a typically understated affair.
A clearly emotional Baillieu held back tears as he thanked those who had supported him in his job, particularly his family.
There was no fiery admonition of those who withdrew their support. There was no self-serving attempt to claim his legacy or cruel the path of his successor.
There was also an expression of pride in his time in the job. An equally emphatic pride in the state.
And then he was gone. He didn't take questions.
This low wattage approach to politics, which had served him so well in opposition, was exactly what has riled his nervous backbench.
The Liberal Party will now be wondering exactly what it has done. If leadership was its greatest problem, then it has addressed that issue.
Denis Napthine is a more combative personality than Baillieu. The country MP is a more in-your-face communicator.
But by the same token, he is also the holder of some incredibly poor polling in his last stint as leader in the early years of the last decade.
Napthine told reporters he is now a little older and wiser than he was 10 years ago, when he last led the party.
The change of leader does not solve other issues, though. Most pressingly it does not solve the prospect of a parliamentary deadlock caused by the resignation of backbencher Geoff Shaw.
Napthine will have no bigger majority than Baillieu had.
Changing leader does nothing to remove the headache of secret recordings about the police scandal that has embroiled deputy premier Peter Ryan.
In fact, the rest of the much criticised leadership remains intact, stacked full of Baillieu lieutenants. So the question of how far this goes to satisfying agitators is very much open to question.
It will do nothing to improve the stretched finances of the state.
Then there are the new issues presented by the execution, to borrow the language of the federal opposition, of the premier.
No reason has been given for the removal of the leader popularly elected two years ago.
Napthine, in fact, strongly defended the government's record. It all sounded a bit too much like Prime Minister Julia Gillard's assessment that Labor's was a "good government that had lost its way".
The parallels to the demise of Kevin Rudd are a little eerie, even if nobody accused Baillieu of having the former prime minister's hyperactive approach to government.
And we all know how that has ended up.

Slazenger's Wimbledon tennis ball has remained the preferred choice as the Official Ball to The Championships Wimbledon for 112 years, reinforcing the longest partnership association in sporting history.
We wanted to share some interesting and insightful statistics from The All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.
We have made a few of our favourite facts and figures into cool images and you are welcome to share across your social networks as we build up to the Wimbledon finals.
290 million: Slazenger tennis balls that could fit into Centre Court with the roof closed
486,898: Attendees for the 13 days of The Championships
40miles: string used to string the 2,000 tennis rackets
200,000: glasses of Pimms served
28,000kg: strawberries served
25,000: bottles of champagne consumed
20,000: portions of frozen yoghurt
16,000: mini tennis ball key rings purchased
15,000: bananas will be eaten
7,000: litres of fresh cream used
250: ball girls and boys at the tournament
About the Ball
Since 1902 Slazenger has supplied the balls for Wimbledon contenders and its team of experts work alongside the top sports scientists at Loughborough University to guarantee The All England Lawn Tennis Club's high standards are adhered to.
Slazenger has reinforced its reputation in the tennis field with its dedication to cutting edge product design, commitment to youth development and endorsements of top international players such as Tim Henman.
Material makeup
Slazenger use the highest premium grade of natural rubber and blend this with Slazenger's formula of 14 ingredients, which give the balls unique performance characteristics.
Technology of the ball
The ball core is unique to Slazenger Wimbledon balls, the brand do not use this for any other product. It has been designed specifically for the biggest tournament in the world and the brand has been supplying premium quality balls since 1902.
The premium woven cloth is the highest grade possible and features an Ultra Vis dye for optimum visibility and also a Hydroguard water resistant treatment which means the cloth absorbs 70% less moisture than standard tennis ball cloths which keeps the balls consistent in terms of specifications and playability.
New this year
The new development this year is the tin design. The premium design features an image of centre court and has been very well received by the All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC).
Where they're made
All the balls are made in the Philippines. Slazenger is the only tennis brand to wholly own its own factory, which gives the brand an advantage over the competition due to the subsequent control over quality.
The journey of the ball
The process starts with rubber compounding which involves mixing the finest natural rubber with Slazenger's formula of ingredients. The following then takes place:
The rubber compound is then formed into pellets and these pellets are in turn moulded into half shells.
The half shells are dipped in adhesive and then bonded together under high pressure and heat.
Moulded cores are then buffed and covered in solution, which helps the cloth bond to the core.
Cloth is then applied to core and placed in a final press to cure and bond cloth to core under high heat. Slazenger use only the most premium woven cloth for the Wimbledon balls, which is produced in the UK and has been for over 100 years.
Balls are then steamed to fluff up the cloth, transfers applied and then balls sealed in pressured tins.
Balls are then shipped to the UK and delivered to the All England Club.
This is the process of making a tennis ball in its simplest form. The difference with the Slazenger Wimbledon production is that a lot of the automated steps are conducted by hand and most importantly all balls are hand tested for size, mass, compression and rebound to make sure they meet the strict quality standards for the tournament.
Slazenger make these balls to a very tight specification, which means that there is very little variation between the balls. By doing this, players benefit from a ball of superior quality with consistent playing characteristics for The Championships.
Can you guess how many will be made this year ??

Best Uses
I displayed the banner at a college Spring Fling and received many compliments. It was easy to put up and easy to take down. It's a durable and quality product that I'm sure I'll be able to use for years to come.
Best Uses
We used this for a teen "glow/neon" dance party with the caption "Get your GLOW on..." and looked great under the black lights!
Best Uses
We used this banner for our fundraising yard sale. We hung it from a table with push pins. It was a beautiful and attractive center point for shoppers passing by. It was heavy enough to just hang freely. I would definitely purchase this product again.
Best Uses
I have an annual employee recognition event. The banner hangs over the stage and dictates that years theme. After the event, it remains hung in our warehouse we have quite a collection of designs hanging for all to see! Pros are that it is easy, cost effective, and totally custom. I don't have to wait for an art department or designer to create a proof, guessing as to what I want. I love having full access and control of this process. I will never use my local sign vendor to do this for me again.
Best Uses
This banner will be great for my daughter's eighth grade graduation party and her class will be able to use it all through high school.

The renewable sources of energy are the new rave which scientists are trying to harness in the most productive and cost-effective ways to help in constant supply of power today, tomorrow and in the unforeseeable future. The renewable sources of energy that are the most used today are solar energy, wind energy, and also the Geothermal Energy. Touted to be the clean energy forms, these energy resources are not just inexhaustible for billions of more years to come but do not add to any harmful effects after use.
While sun's energy is being utilized in the creation of many devices that use the same to produce electricity, the one that has seen a great evolution using the solar energy as the primary source are the Solar water heater. Used to supply homes and even commercial places with a constant supply of hot water, these are now being installed at various paces for a great number of benefits. From an easy resource to universal availability, solar energy is now being used in Solar water heater in an increasing popularity and will continue to see the same in the future too.
The one renewable source of energy that though is not much used till now, but veils a great amount of prospective still unexplored is Geothermal Energy. Generated from the heat that is stored deep under the surface. This comes from the decay of the radioactive substances like potassium, chromium, uranium and others. Also, the sun's energy that is absorbed by the earth's surface contributes to a great extent to the resource of Geothermal Energy.

Guest Book
Fans are important in Japanese culture and are woven into this vintage Japanese kimono silk vest, with a ground of black and tiny gray stitches. The colorful lining (light tan, orange, orange-red, violet and light gray) has a dyed pattern representing the three friends in winter (bamboo, pine and plum) and sandbars. In the center of the back is one white family crest (mon) with an open folding fan motif. Having one-five family crests on a Japanese garment meant that it was not worn every day, but only on special formal or semi-formal occasions.
Condition: excellent outside and inside. Size: 27 across the top; 37 top to bottom. U.S. womens size: x-small, small, or medium. This vintage lightweight silk kimono vest is not designed to overlap or close in the center, if worn. If desired, you could add your own closure. Such superior textile artwork would also add a lovely touch to home décor.

First Listen
Toyc "Sferics"
- Words: Cam Curran
Hailing from Nottingham, Toyc is a fresh producer currently peddling his brand of wavey, Detroit-referencing house around the London scene. With forthcoming releases on a variety of labels, the 19 year old sent us the elastic, spaced-out "Sferics." The tune puts a plump bass tone in orbit around a kick pattern that will hook big-room ravers far and wide, as Toyc drapes the whole thing with classic dub-techno chords and a sweaty, crammed-on-the-dancefloor atmosphere that's punctuated by a sultry, gasping vocal. Other tracks like this have been appearing on the playlists of everyone from Jackmaster and Ben UFO to Brackles and Addison Groove, and we look forward to hearing more from this exciting young artist.

Pet lovers protest cats on the menu in China
GUANGZHOU, China While animal lovers in Beijing protested the killing of cats for food on Thursday, a butcher in Guangdong province – where felines are the main ingredient in a famous soup – just shrugged her shoulders and wielded her cleaver. "Cats have a strong flavor. Dogs taste much better, but if you really want cat meat, I can have it delivered by tomorrow," said the butcher, who gave only her surname, Huang.
It was just this attitude that outraged about 40 cat lovers who unfurled banners in a tearful protest outside the Guangdong government office in Beijing. Many were retirees who care for stray felines they said were being rounded up by dealers.
"We must make them correct this uncivilized behavior," said Wang Hongyao, who represented the group in submitting a letter urging the provincial government to crack down on traders and restaurants, although they were breaking no laws.
The protest was the latest clash between age-old traditions and the new sensibilities made possible by China's growing affluence. Pet ownership was once rare because the Communist Party condemned it as bourgeois and most people simply couldn't afford a cat or dog.
The protesters' indignation was whipped up by recent reports in Chinese newspapers about the cat meat industry. On Monday, the Southern Metropolis Daily – a Guangdong paper famous for its exposes and aggressive reporting – ran a story that said about 1,000 cats were transported by train to Guangdong each day.
The animals came from Nanjing, a major trading hub for cats, the newspaper said. They were brought to market by dealers on motorcycles, crammed into wooden crates and sent to Guangdong on trains. A photo showed a cat with green eyes peering from a crowded crate.
Some people in Nanjing spend their days "fishing for cats," often stealing pets, the report said.
One cat owner in Guanghzou said people are afraid to let their pets leave the house for fear they will get nabbed.
"It's never been this bad. Who knows, it might be because of the bad economy. I've heard that there are cat-nabbing syndicates from Hunan that are rounding up cats," said the man, who would only give his surname, Lai, because he feared the cat business might be run by gangsters.
Animal protection groups have occasionally ambushed truck convoys loaded with bamboo cages filled with cats bound for Guangdong. In one recent case, hundreds of cats escaped after their cages were opened, though hundreds more remained penned in the vehicle.
Lai Xiaoyu, who was involved in the attempted "rescue," said authorities couldn't stop the cat shipment because the traders said the animals were to be raised as pets.
"The police did what they could, but there's little they can do to stop or punish those traders from shipping live animals," Lai said.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, issued a statement Thursday decrying the cruel treatment.
"China has no animal protection laws, and throughout the country scores of cats and dogs are bred or rounded up, crammed onto trucks and driven for days under hellish conditions to animal markets, where they are beaten to death, strangled or boiled alive," said a spokesman for the group, Michael V. McGraw.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer may have ended nearly a decade ago, but just pick up your remote and you'll still see many of the show's familiar faces on-screen today. With star Sarah Michelle Gellar marking her return to series television with the upcoming CW thriller Ringer, we decided to take a look back at Buffy's notable players, then and now.
Life Unexpected's newest character Emma may appear to be Type A and tough, but star Emma Caulfield says she has a darker past that Baze (Kris Polaha) will bring to light. Despite their boss-employee relationship and polar-opposite personalities, the two develop a romance that she say brings up a lot about each other — good and bad. Caulfield tells TVGuide.com about why Emma is so guarded, and how she compares her to the actress' previous popular Buffy character, Anya...
After Life Unexpected's Baze (Kristoffer Polaha) loses two of the loves in his life, Cate (Shiri Appleby) and his bar, it doesn't take long for him to find surrogate replacements, both in the same place: his dad's firm. With a new job as a sales associate and a fiery new boss, Emma (Emma Caulfield), Baze soon finds himself in yet another relationship that starts out as hate-hate.

Brandon Flowers Plots Tour Dates
Killers singer Brandon Flowers will bring a little piece of Las Vegas to cities across North America this fall on his first-ever solo tour behind Flamingo, his Sin City-tinged debut out September 14.
The 15-date trek kicks off November 10 in Los Angeles and will cross the U.S., from Seattle to New York City, through early December. Brandon Flowers recently told SPIN that Flamingo -- listen to a preview of the entire album -- is about his experiences with his hometown.
"A lot of my life took place on Flamingo [Road]. It's part of Vegas mythology, and now it's part of my own mythology," he said. "My first job was at a golf course on Flamingo. Sam's Town [a casino that inspired the title of the Killers' 2006 album] is on Flamingo. I met my wife at a clothing store on Flamingo. That's my 'hood." To read more about his experiences in Vegas, including a run-in with late-night orgy while working as a hotel's bellhop, click here.
Flowers prepared for the upcoming trek -- one of SPIN's Must-See Fall Tours -- with a short club jaunt in late August. At his debut, fittingly held at a Vegas casino, Flowers performed alongside photos of legends like Elvis. SPIN reported: "The show climaxed with 'Playing With Fire,' a bluesy torch song with touches of lap steel where Flowers ratchets his voice up to near falsetto heights... As the song built momentum, Flowers became increasingly animated, climbing atop a stage monitor, fists clenched, punching the air. 'I've got this burning belief in salvation and love,' he sang, its flames rivaled by the fire in his belly."
Before the tour Flowers will perform on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (September 13) and Jimmy Kimmel Live (September 14).
