Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2015 Lexus IS
By KBB.com Editors
KBB Expert Rating: 7.5
While it has a tendency to fly under the radar, the 2013 Lexus IS continues to be a formidable contender in the ultra-competitive luxury sports-sedan category. With the standard IS250 and sporty 306-horsepower IS350 at its core, the IS lineup also offers a hardtop convertible and a high-performance IS F variant designed to compete head-to-head with BMW's M3. Class-leading resale values and a reputation for exceptional long-term reliability make the Lexus IS a smart choice for value-conscious buyers. But, despite its sleekly-styled exterior and high value quotient, the Lexus IS has struggled to draw market share away from the Mercedes-Benz C Class, Audi A4 and the benchmark among sport sedans, the BMW 3 Series.
If you appreciate the aggressive styling of contemporary sports cars, but crave the refinement and comfort of a luxury sedan, the 2013 Lexus IS is tough to beat. It may lack the athleticism of a BMW 3 Series and trail the Mercedes-Benz C Class in terms of prestige, but the Lexus IS remains a well-rounded performer with exceptional reliability and value.
If interior volume and rear-seat legroom are at the top of your list, you may find the Lexus IS less accommodating than its larger European rivals. In addition, drivers who prefer a generous helping of sport with a side of luxury should consider the BMW 3 Series, Infiniti G37 or the Audi A4.
With an all-new model due out next year, the Lexus IS has only a few upgrades for 2013. IS models equipped with navigation now include Lexus' latest Enform infotainment system with automatic phonebook downloading via Bluetooth and HD Radio with iTunes Tagging. Additionally, the IS250's optional 6-speed manual transmission has been discontinued.
Driving Impressions If the BMW's 3 Series serves as the definition of "sport sedan," then the 2013 Lexus IS 250 and IS 350 might be seen as the "Grand Tourers" of the...category. While the Lexus IS isn't as engaging or nimble as its sportier rivals, all iterations provide a level of compliant composure the Germans rarely deliver – at least in this size category. Of course, what's under the hood will determine, in large part, where you peg the smile meter. The entry-level IS 250 focuses on practical characteristics such as fuel efficiency and ride quality, while the more powerful Lexus IS 350 borders on the visceral. As Lexus' first super sedan, the V8-equipped IS F makes a credible run at BMW's M3, and does it without earning the costly gas-guzzler tax. Given its mission, the hardtop convertible – with either V6 powertrain – is little more than a boulevard cruiser.
In a segment offering all-wheel drive as an all-season prerogative, Lexus' approach delivers 70 percent of the engine power to the rear wheels under normal operating conditions. With that proportional distribution, little of the sport orientation is lost on dry pavement, while traction is enhanced on wet or slickened pavement.
While the well-tuned standard suspension will please most buyers, Lexus' F Sport Package incorporates firmer springs and shock absorbers along with a recalibrated electric power steering system to elevate the performance of any rear-drive IS model to near-BMW 3 Series levels of agility and fun.
As BMW and Audi interiors continue to gravitate toward mid-size, the smaller Lexus remains, well, small. The driver and front-seat passenger are well accommodated, and all seating positions are well appointed, but this is best regarded as a "personal" 4-door sport sedan, one which will never be confused with a family hauler. Of course, if you're in a Lexus showroom shopping for the family, the dealer has roughly a half-dozen better choices from which to choose. We like the personal feel of the IS, and the convertible hardtop offers unlimited headroom – with the top down, of course.Exterior
The Lexus IS 250/350 body shell shown in March, 2005 was remarkable for its utter lack of adornment or distraction. A softened wedge profile, short overhangs and a raked windshield created a sporting 4-door that was almost coupe-like in its design. Opt for the IS F (or F Sport package) and things get more enthusiastic. The IS C hardtop convertible strikes, to these eyes, the only discordant note; in order to accommodate the folding hardtop, Lexus designers added an unsightly slab of bulbous sheet metal to the rear end.
The term "bang-for-the-buck" is seldom associated with luxury vehicles, but with an attractive base price and long list of standard features, the Lexus IS offers perhaps the best value in the category. At its about-$36,000 starting price, the Lexus IS includes leather seating, smart access with push-button start, 10-way power front seats, power moonroof and a 13-speaker premium audio system. Opting for the IS 350 gets you xenon headlights that emit up to three times the light of standard halogen systems, a 306-horsepower V6 and beefed-up brakes. On the safety front, every Lexus IS includes eight airbags, built-in telematics with emergency services and hill-start assist, which prevents the vehicle from rolling backwards when starting off on a steep grade.
Buyers looking to bridge the performance gap between the mainstream IS and the race-inspired IS F will find the available F Sport Package up to the task. Upgrades include 18-inch alloy wheels with a dark graphite finish, aggressively-tuned electric power steering, firmer suspension and a host of cosmetic adornments for both the interior and exterior. Technophiles will rejoice at the newly-available Lexus Enform 2.0 infotainment system comprised of HD Radio with iTunes Tagging and in-vehicle mobile applications such as Bing local search, OpenTable, MovieTickets.com, Yelp and Pandora Internet radio.
Two technology-intensive, all-aluminum V6 engines provide clean and comparatively fuel-efficient motivation for the IS line. Both powertrains use dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) and direct fuel injection. The 2.5-liter develops 204 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque, sufficient to take a rear-drive IS 250 from zero to 60 mph in under eight seconds. The 3.5-liter V6 in the IS 350 adds secondary port injection and cranks out 306 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. Backed by a multi-mode automatic with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters, it propels the fleetest member of the standard IS family from zero to 60 mph in about 5.5 seconds. If a zero-to-60-mph time of less than six seconds isn't quite quick enough, consider the IS F's 5.0-liter V8, and then go cruising for pink slips – or tickets. The all-aluminum 8-cylinder engine produces 416 horsepower and 371 lb-ft of torque, and is capable of launching the IS F from zero to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds with a top track speed of 170 mph. All engines require premium unleaded fuel.

What I love about this car is that it's gas efficient and very luxurious in many way.

"Purchased the 2008 IS 250 new. The car is 6 years old and is still my favorite car!! It gets great gas mileage and maneuvers through traffic like a dream. It feels sporty and sleek. The car has 123k miles on it (I drive a lot!) and this car still runs beautifully. My only complaint is the leg room in the back seat. If you have family or friends with long legs then they will be miserable riding in the back seat. Our 8 yr old Grandson is already complaining about the lack of leg room. Otherwise, this car is perfect!!"

Knorr's new Homestyle concentrated stock
Knorr's Homestyle stock
Photo: ,
When Mr. Tidbit picked up the four-pack of little tublets of Knorr's new Homestyle concentrated stock (chicken flavor with other natural flavor), knowing he'd have to compare it with some of the many related products, he feared he would be opening a can of worms -- not to mention a can of chicken broth.
(Right off the top, for example, what's the difference between stock and broth? Many folks make no distinction at all, but Swanson makes aseptic brick packs of both stock and broth, and one of several common definitions fits those products: stock is soup makings -- such as meat, bones, vegetables and herbs -- cooked to use as a flavor base; broth is stock that has been seasoned to make it acceptable to be eaten as a soup. Specifically, broth has more salt.)
Mr. Tidbit doesn't have the palate (or the guts) to do a taste comparison of the many available chicken stock/broth products; instead he will list, for a few of them, the price per cup and two other items: sodium content per cup and the percentage of ingredients easily recognized as food/flavor substances (which he defines as things he's ever had in his kitchen -- even if the product has them in dried form).
Swanson's aseptic-pack stock is $2.87 for 26 ounces (88 cents per cup), 500 milligrams sodium, 10 food ingredients of 10 (100 percent). Swanson's aseptic-pack broth is $3.73 for 48 ounces (62 cents per cup), 960 mg sodium, 13 food ingredients of 22 (59 percent).
Campbell's canned broth (double strength) is $1.78 for a 101/2-ounce can (68 cents per diluted cup), 770 mg sodium, six food ingredients of 11 (54 percent).
Knorr chicken flavor bouillon cubes (each makes 2 cups) are $1.18 for a box of six (10 cents per cup), 1270 mg sodium, 11 food ingredients of 16 (69 percent). And Knorr's new concentrated stock tublets are $3.99 for four, each making 31/2 cups (28 cents per cup -- lots cheaper than all but the bouillon cubes), 730 mg sodium, 16 food ingredients of 30 (53 percent).

According to the file-sharing guys at FreakTorrent, someone at the Vatican is downloading porn.
http://news.yahoo.com/someone-vatican-downloading-really-dirty-porn-220053331.html [2]
I kind of doubt this is a big shocking story. After all, the Swiss Guard isn't required to take any vows of celibacy (I don't think). Perhaps the bigger issue is downloading porn from torrents because that's stealing.

dios mio!
chicken bus entry was hilarious, but i'm scared for you both. i'll keep the two of you in my prayers. hay dios mio.
Loading Map
nothing we have done so far on this trip or reading in a book could prepare us for the difference after we crossed the border to guatemala. the border is freaky and everyone appeared to be drunk---crap. then we found the chicken bus stop. double crap.
guatemala is where old school buses from the states go to die and get reincarnated as the devil on wheels. really. you remember going to school on the bus, right? there are maybe 20 seats. this does not mean 20 or even 40 passengers is full. nope. it seems the favorite guatemalan past time is to cram as many humans as possible onto or into any moving object. this includes 3-4 per moped or motorcycle, 10-15 in the back of a truck (only toyota by the way) and upwards of 60-80 people on the school bus
and don�t think that there are actual stops either. remember how hard first gear was as a kid? well now it�s ruined. first gear sucks so the driver tries not to use it if possible. people wait on the side of the road and wave to the driver. he SLOWS down and they run and jump on the bus. little old ladies too. the door therefore stays open all the time and little dude stands in it yelling the destination to passersby so they know to RUN if they want this bus. and if you don�t know exactly where you are going, where you are now and when that stop is coming up, you are up the creek, no, in the creek, no paddle with your drawers full of poop
no chickens on them though, so i don�t know why they are called chicken buses yet.
other than this, guatemala is extreme in every way, including the beauty. the steep canyon walls and rivers that rush through them are amazing. guat is full of opposites too. very dirty at the same time as pretty. really poor looking people talking on cell phones. really well dressed ladies in high heels walking in ankle deep trash. weird. nothing could have prepared us. the thing that kept me laughing instead of white knuckling is the comedy with which one could imagine irene trying to do the chicken bus helper�s job.
tomorrow we are trying more chicken bus adventures. wish us luck.

Chicken Bus
Hang on tight. It is funny when you read this stuff but scary when you think about it.Remind me not to go there and try their buses
Ahhh! Memories....
Sorry but I was laughing so hard because it brought back lots of memories of my visits to Guate. It's been a long time but the thought of those buses can bring back some very vivid memories. I remember riding with chickens and yes, let's fit as many people as possible. I was so young! :) And great observation on the contrasts. It is a beautiful country but it is a poor one. Wish I could put you in touch with some of my relatives but I've been out of touch for a long time. Keep safe and enjoy! Look forward to reading more
I almost hyperventilated reading this story! Half from laughing and half from an uncontrolled stress-induced sphincter clamp down. I can actually see, hear, and lo siento, SMELL the horrors of a Central American Scooby Doo & Shaggy Mystery Machine gone wrong. I can picture a clown car with a bunch of drunk guats hanging out of the chicken wire windows with their tequila and gold 'teefs.' I can see (barely, through the mud smeared back window that was cleaned in Mexico city against the will of the driver who was saving his pesos for crack)one gramma who didn't run quite fast enough with a no-tread tire track over the back of her dirty pancho. GOD DAWG what an ADVENTURE!! If you guys don't start drinking, I don't know how you're going to make it further south. Maybe stop by the next mercado and pick up your own crucifix fashioned out of a CD? If nothing else, you can use it to flash SOS to an overhead rescue plane. Hail Mary! Be safe, keep smiling and GO DEEP!
Cheers! (A subliminal message of coping...)

text: We're looking at putting in electronic registration in to the classrooms this september, problem is, how to do it. We've got two networks, curriculum and admin. The teachers laptops are on the Curriculum network and the electronic registration system is on the Admin Network. Our (small) physical network consists of a router through which we get broadband and two switches one at either side of the school. The switches aren't managed and are about five years old. I'm thinking of replacing the switches with managed lvl 3 switches (or getting in smaller ones to go along side the present ones just for the e registration) and setting up VLAN's to allow us to securely join the two networks. Is this the right way to go about it or am i barking up the wrong tree!!! lol

Top IPOs of 2010 Share China as Theme
MakeMyTrip (MMYT) may be off its highs, but the Indian travel-destination provider has continued to hold much of its gains. Shares priced at $14 in August. At $33.85, it's up more than 140% from the IPO price. The stock has been as high as $42.
Molycorp (MCP) is the come-from-nowhere IPO that does not even have real operations. The U.S. "rare earth" company won't even have full operations until the end of 2011. China's limit in rare-earth materials, along with a new rare earth ETF, give this one a floor. Molycorp traded under its $14 IPO price and soared to $40 briefly. It's now at $33.75.
AutoNavi (AMAP) is a Chinese company that provides global positioning and navigation services for cars. That has kept its cell-phone and smartphone competition more limited compared with Garmin (GRMN) in the U.S. AutoNavi went public July 1 in the peak-selling week of summer, and shares are up over 70% at $21.55 versus its $12.50 IPO price. The low was $12.62.
The China, or Asia, theme is hard to ignore among the top IPO winners. These 100%-plus gainers are impressive.-- Written by Jon C. Ogg of 24/7 Wall St.

Task force buys more time in effort to delay La Jolla post office sale
By Pat Sherman
The Save Our La Jolla Post Office Task Force received good news last week from a federal agency that says selling La Jolla's Wall Street post office would have a negative impact on the 1935 structure and beloved community landmark.
The federal Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) determined that the United States Postal Service's federal preservation officer ruled incorrectly when he said in October that selling the post office would have "no adverse effect" on the structure.
It has been nearly a year since the United States Postal Service (USPS) announced its plan to sell La Jolla's post office at 1140 Wall Street and relocate services to a smaller building elsewhere in or near the Village.
The post office task force, comprised of attorneys, land use experts, historic preservationists and other community members, was formed shortly after the announcement to devise a plan to keep postal services on Wall Street — including having a nonprofit organization, such as the La Jolla Historical Society, purchase the building and lease a portion of it back to USPS.
USPS has determined that the Wall Street building is eligible for placement on the National Register of Historic Places for its WPA-era architecture and 1935 mural by artist Belle Baranceanu.
The sale has been delayed about six months by the Section 106 process, which requires federal agencies, such as the USPS, to study the impact of a sale or alteration to buildings either listed on or eligible for inclusion on the National Register.
In a letter opining that selling the post office would have no adverse effect on the building, Federal Preservation Officer Dallan Wordekemper wrote that a "preservation covenant" with the new owner would require that the new owner restore, maintain and preserve the property and mural in accordance with Secretary of the Interior standards, and that no construction, alteration or rehabilitation be permitted that would affect its historic features without prior approval of the California Historic Preservation Office.
However, on Nov. 20 ACHP Director Reid Nelson sent a letter to Wordekemper stating his opinion that the covenant as worded is "insufficient to justify the finding of no adverse effect" and "does not include provisions that ensure the long-term preservation of the property's historic significance as required (by ACHP regulations.)"
If the USPS maintains its finding of no adverse effect, it must summarize in writing its reason for the decision and the evidence that it considered the ACHP's opinion, Nelson wrote.
Post office task force chair Leslie Davis said the ACHP's determination will prolong the Section 106 process, further delaying a sale while the task force works on its strategy to keep postal services in place.
"Section 106 is what is keeping us from having that post office sold — and it continues to keep us from that," Davis said.
In addition, in order for the USPS to sell the post office, an agency must first accept responsibility for maintaining the preservation cove- nants and assuring that the building's historic facets are maintained — which can be an expensive and time-consuming process.

Brooks E. Kurr of Annandale, a friend of the man accused of pulling the trigger, was allegedly upset because he was fired from his job as a limo driver.
A second person was charged Wednesday in Scott County District Court in connection with the Oct. 22 shooting death of Aaron Moran, 32, at his Shakopee home.
Brooks E. Kurr of Annandale faces one count of aiding and abetting second-degree murder. Anthony J. Cox, 21, the alleged gunman who told police that he and Kurr were friends, was charged Tuesday with two counts of second-degree murder.
Kurr, 36, was a driver for a limo service in Shakopee and believed that Moran, a dispatcher at Affordable Town Car Service, was keeping limo runs from him, according to the criminal complaint. He knew the victim was keeping a log that detailed when he was late for work and when he didn't answer his phone, and he blamed Moran when he was fired after a drug test showed methamphetamine use, the complaint said.
It said Kurr even staked out Moran's house to see if the victim was going on runs that Kurr thought should be his.
"It was common knowledge amongst the employees that there was bad blood between [Kurr] and [Moran]," the complaint said.
Kurr dropped Cox off near Moran's home in the 800 block of S. Prairie Street the evening of Oct. 22, the document said. Witnesses told police that Cox came in through the unlocked front door with a gun in his hand and demanded money. When Moran walked in, Cox shot him four times, the complaint said.
"Now I only have two bullets left," Cox told a 15-year-old boy who lived at the house. Cox went through the victim's pockets, then told the teenager to take him to Moran's room and to bring Moran's gun safe to him. Cox is accused of stealing a backpack with ammunition, a video-game system, two cellphones and the victim's and the teenager's wallets.
He told the teenager to sit on the couch, close his eyes and count to 120 before he called police. As Cox left, he told the boy, "You don't recognize me."
The day after the murder, another employee of the limo service went to police and identified Cox as the man who had robbed his home in Shakopee at gunpoint on Oct. 8.
Investigators tracked Cox through his cellphone and arrested him Saturday about two blocks from Moran's home. The complaint said Cox was carrying the backpack he had stolen from Moran's home. He ultimately confessed to killing Moran and to robbing the other limo service employee, the complaint said.
Kurr was arrested Sunday in the parking lot of a Bloomington Wal-Mart. Officers found the video-game system stolen from Moran's home in his car.
Kurr and Cox are being held in the Scott County Jail. Kurr has a bail hearing at 11 a.m. Thursday; Cox is being held on $3 million bail and has a court appearance Friday.

At the Forge - RSpec for Controllers
RSpec's "outside-in" approach to testing takes a bit of getting used to, but I increasingly have found it to be a method that forces me to think harder about my code, as well as about my testing strategy. That said, I'm not sure if I really have a strong preference for RSpec over similar BDD-style tools, such as Shoulda, which works with Ruby's traditional Test::Unit system. The bottom line is that you should try to include as much automated testing as possible in any software you design—not only because it will benefit your users, but also because it will benefit you as a developer.
The home page for RSpec is rspec.info, and it contains installation and configuration documentation, as well as pointers to other documents.
The Pragmatic Programmers recently released a book called The RSpec Book, written by RSpec maintainer David Chelimsky and many others actively involved in the RSpec community. If you are interested in using RSpec (or its cousin, the BDD tool Cucumber), this book is an excellent starting point.
An RSpec mailing list, which is helpful and friendly, but fairly high volume, is at groups.google.com/group/rspec.
Finally, a good introduction to RSpec and mocking is in The Rails Way, one of my favorite books about Rails, written by Obie Fernandez. This book describes mocking both within the context of RSpec and as a general testing tool when developing Rails applications.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Great photos! Thanks for sharing!
On The Road: Narrow Focus: Know Before You Go
I'd bring two camera bodies, and I'd be able to lighten the lens load. A 24mm and a 35mm would be the main lenses for the streets and indoors. I added an 85mm for portraits and a 60mm micro for close-ups of architectural details, food, and clothing. And that was it. In the worst-case scenario if something happened to the 85mm, the 60mm, though it's a little short for a portrait lens, would be an adequate substitute.
The lenses were fast glass—all f/1.4 except the 60mm, which was f/2.8—and that was because I expected low light, I wanted to be able to control the backgrounds and there might be a number of circumstances in which I couldn't or wouldn't want to use my flash. I also had an Epson P-5000 digital wallet for viewing and storing images, and I carried a lot of memory cards; there was no laptop on this trip because Internet access was extremely limited and unreliable.
So I'd narrowed the focus: concentrate on people. Essentially, I'd do one thing and do it well. And even though I always expect the unexpected, Plan B wasn't needed. Things worked out even better than I thought (and hoped) they would.
One evening I was invited into the home of a musician who was happy to talk with me and play some music. With the 24mm f/1.4 lens I was able to capture a variety of spontaneous moments by the light of a single fluorescent bulb. I shot also inside a working pharmacy in which one side of the store was a restored pharmacy museum. And I got to photograph at an outdoor boxing gym in Old Havana.
From Havana I went on to the old colonial town of Trinidad, a World Heritage Site known for its colorful buildings and, increasingly, its appeal to tourists.
When I used the flash it was most often outdoors to fill in some shadows on the streets and help illuminate the faces of the dark-skinned people. I also used a polarizer to enhance the blue sky and, especially in Trinidad, the colors of the buildings.
The Cuban people were invariably friendly and open to being photographed, and I also had the benefit of a translator—my daughter, Erin, who's fluent in Spanish and wanted to take some photographs of her own. Keeping it in the family helped out in several situations, as we made a much more personal connection to the people we met when I told them that my daughter was my guide and translator. That got a lot of conversations started, and her skill impressed many of the people we met and put them at ease.
And that, too, turned out to be part of the plan.

I've been dreaming about going to Cuba all my life and your pictures make me want to get there as soon as possible! I wonder if a road trip would be safe there though, RV Nation has some amazing campers and I;m willing to get one for the occasion.
This is a great and interesting! I like traveling a lot especially when I have to face unusual travel experiences and I am always taking my professional camera with me in order to capture the most amazing moments and landscapes.
I can't remember the last time I had such a long road trip, I've been avoiding them for years. I guess I got too old to sit in a chair for too long, even long airplane trips are tiring for me these days. Thank God I know a few tips to beat jet lag to help me cope with them!
These photos are great! I work as a photographer and traveling is one of my hobbies. I like to take photos in different locations. I've recently spent my vacation in Reykjavik and I took some amazing photos there.

How To Make Good Oyster Dressing
If you like oysters, you will want to learn how to make good oyster dressing. Oyster dressing is also sometimes referred to as oyster stuffing. You can serve your oyster dressing along with a turkey or ham on Thanksgiving or Christmas.
You will need the following items to make your oyster dressing:
- 1 1b. loaf of stale Italian bread
- 1/2 cup of butter
- 3/4 cup celery diced
- 1 small onion diced
- 1/4 cup green bell pepper diced
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 Tbsp. poultry seasoning
- 1 pint of oysters diced
- 1/2 tsp. pepper
- 1 tsp. sage
- 1 egg
Follow these steps to make your oyster dressing:
- Set your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease your baking dish with a cooking spray or a Tbsp. of butter
- Melt your butter in a pan. Then add your celery, onion, and bell pepper.
- Cook on medium heat for five minutes.
- Add chicken broth, poultry seasoning, oysters, pepper, sage, and the egg to the pan.
- Mix all of the ingredients together and remove them from the heat.
- Chop up your loaf of french bread and place it in your greased baking dish.
- Pour the ingredients from your frying pan in to the baking dish.
- Toss the french bread around so that it is covered with the ingredients from the frying pan.
- Bake the oyster dressing for one hour.
If you like the top of your oyster dressing to stay soft, place a sheet of tin foil over it before baking. Leaving the tin foil off makes for a nice crispy top layer.

Titanfall on PlayStation 'definitely not out of the question'

Titanfall may currently be exclusive to Xbox One and Xbox 360 (and PC, but apparently that doesn't count because we want Microsoft and Sony to fight in a dank basement) but it won't necessarily always be that way. See, according to publisher EA the exclusivity is one of those "tactical opportunities" that comes along (ie metal briefcases full of money), while developer Respawn Entertainment says a PlayStation version later is "definitely not out of the question."

Asheville, NC
- 0Jul 17, '12 by dreamworx07Currently working staff outside Asheville and it is a great city! Lots to do, but it is definately hippy town!! Area is beautiful, lots of mountains and outdoor activities. Cost of living is really cheap and there really aren't any bad sections of town. Mission hospital in Asheville (if that's where you are looking) seems like a great facility, although cant tell you how they are with travelers. Happy to answer any firer questions on the area though!
- 0Jul 19, '12 by mveldma3I just finished a travel assignment a couple hours east of Asheville, however while I was there had the opportunity to visit the area a couple of times. It's gorgeous and there is a lot to do. I highly recommend visiting the Biltmore estate and going zip-lining while you are there! Good luck!
- 0Jul 31, '12 by MtnRNI would recommend Greenville, SC (only 50 mi south of Asheville, or Charlotte, NC only 2 hrs from Ashevilleinstead.)In other words once they have you locked in the system, they treat you like dirt! As a former employee. I can tell you it is NOT a teaching hospital (although they would like to be) and as many of us who are "older former employees" they have been going through "letting go" of really good experienced RNs who have been with the hospital for many years by coming up with drummed up reasons to write them up ( they practice this 3 strikes and youre out kinda thing there and dont you even dare call in sick, that is counted a one of the strikes against you! Even if you are obviously ill.) note the policy states on the job descriptions " at the descretion of the manage, thats how they get away with loosely interpreting policies and managers making up their own "floor specific policies". A few years ago, the hospital said they were going broke, and they were looking at every way to cut costs. One way we have discovered is that they have been letting go of all of us long timers and especially those of us over 40 who may cost their self insured health insurance system more money. Also we figured they were sacrificing years of expertise and experience for cheaper wages with new grads to save money. Several have been to attorneys and have tried to prove age discrimination but their legal department has their HR people cover their tracks so well with loopholes and such that it has been nearly impossible to sue them. Also it was on the local news also that they have a bad reputation for not paying or denying several workmans comp cases which were clearly their fault. There are several nurses who are now destitute as a result of this. Several unfair labor practices have been observed as well and when it is brought to their attention, youre out the door. As for getting a union in? Forget it. They even have a "Union-Free Workplace" policy on the books and send their management personnel to classes on "How to stop union activity in the workplace". I have actually seen this. Stay away if you want to keep your sanity. They may sugar coat it and make it sound all candlelight and roses. But like any one knows, you can have a beautiful bedpan, but its still full of stool in the end.
- 0Aug 12, '12 by CrazierThanYouI see the person above seems rather bitter about Mission Hospitals. I haven't worked there myself, I have done clinicals there while in nursing school. Everyone I know who works there or has worked there really likes it. So...
Also, someone mentioned Asheville has a low cost of living. I thought that was interesting as I saw on TV once that Asheville has one of the highest costs of living in the nation but I don't have any concrete facts on that. I can't even remember where I saw that.

Chaos has dominated the streets of Ferguson since Michael Brown, an unarmed teenager, was shot and killed by Darren Wilson, an officer with the Ferguson Police Department. Days of protests have been followed by nights of tense confrontations between residents and a heavily-armed police force. Go here for the latest updates.
Since chaos erupted in the streets of Ferguson, Mo., more than a week ago, journalists from all over the world have flocked to the scene. They have also, increasingly, become the target of police arrests.
Overnight, several journalists reported being detained, threatened or prevented from covering the story.
Abby Phillip has more here.
Since Michael Brown was shot and killed on Aug. 9, several key questions have not been answered. In Ferguson and beyond, many have asked for information about how he was killed — how many gunshot wounds, where on his body Brown was shot — even as these details were not known.
On Monday, the first details coming from autopsies have been coming out.
Attorneys for Brown's family revealed information from an autopsy that the family requested, which they said showed that Brown was trying to surrender when he was killed. This medical examiner also revealed additional details about where Brown was struck; head here for more.
Meanwhile, the county investigation has found that Brown was hit in the front, between six and eight times. Head here for more on what that autopsy found.
The National Guard is being deployed to Ferguson following yet another night of tense, violent standoffs between residents and a heavily-armed police force. Here is our latest dispatch from what is happening on the ground.
Yet again, crowds gathered in the streets of Ferguson on Sunday night. Yet again, there was chaos.
From The Post this morning:
Police said protesters fired at least 30 gunshots and threw Molotov cocktails at officers. Police blocked off Ferguson's main avenue, and hundreds of officers in riot gear advanced on the crowd and began firing tear gas. Some of the demonstrators, covering their faces with scarves and napkins, tossed the tear gas canisters back at police…
The air was thick with smoke, and people could be heard shouting, "Hard to breathe!"
Here's how the demonstrations and the police response looked overnight.
St. Louis Alderman Antonio French has been on the streets of Ferguson night and day for more than a week, tweeting his account of protests and clashes with police since the shooting of Michael Brown on Aug. 9.
He has consistently argued that the police response has overwhelmingly outweighed the threat of violence — until now.
In a series of tweets, French sounded the alarm that a small group of "insurgents" is to blame for the increase in violence and chaos he witnessed on the streets of Ferguson on Sunday night:
These people are not protestors. This is something different and it has little to do with #JusticeForMikeBrown.
— Antonio French (@AntonioFrench) August 18, 2014
There is a small group of people who cannot be defined as protestors/demonstrators. They are more like fighters/rebels/insurgents. #Ferguson
— Antonio French (@AntonioFrench) August 18, 2014
Read more here.
Ferguson resident Piaget Crenshaw told CNN that she witnessed Michael Brown's shooting death — and that she captured the moments after his death on video. CNN first aired the video, along with Crenshaw's interview, on Monday.
Crenshaw said:
"From it all initially happening, I knew this is not right…I knew the police shouldn't have been chasing this young boy and firing at the same time. The fact that he got shot in his face, it was like something clicked in me … this isn't right. I gotta record."
Crenshaw said she held off on releasing the video until now on the advice of her lawyer. Read more here.
Gov. Jay Nixon (D) announced Monday that the curfew would be lifted in Ferguson following two nights of protests and clashes between heavily-armed police and residents.
This decision came because the Missouri National Guard has been called in to help with security in Ferguson, Nixon said in a statement.
Head here for more.
The violence that erupted in Ferguson overnight despite a state-imposed curfew has left some wondering what it will take to stop the unrest.
One Ferguson resident, community activist Dennis Brown, 46, suggested that the problem goes far deeper than the shooting of Michael Brown.
"These young people are angry because they want justice," Brown said. "This didn't happen overnight. The problems in St. Louis have been happening for years. It was a pot ready to boil over."
"Missouri is one of the most racist states in the country," he added. "You have problems with racial profiling. Young people being pulled over. DWB's. Driving while black. Young people sitting on the sides of roads. There's a lack of jobs. A lack of employment."
Brown said young people are organizing their protests on social media. He also believes that some of the protesters responsible for the violence over the past week are from Ferguson, not outside communities.
"They are not gang leaders. They are normal people. They are people showing their anger," he said.
"They say this is enough. They see Trayvon Martin. They saw Fruitvale Station. And before that, there was Rodney King. And those cops walk."
"There's always a time in history when great things happen to strike at the core people. These young people are saying enough is enough. This is the time when things change."
In an unusual move for the global rights organization, Amnesty International dispatched a delegation of observers and organizers to Ferguson late last week — the first deployment of its kind by Amnesty within the United States, the organization said.
Amnesty dispatched the 13-person delegation on Thursday, a day after Amnesty International USA's Executive Director Steven Hawkins sent a letter to law enforcement officials there expressing "deep concern" about the death of Michael Brown and the way in which the police responded to protesters.

"There are plenty of foreign journalists reporting on Ferguson," Adam Taylor and Rick Noack write on WorldViews, "and for them, Ferguson is foreign news."
So how is the foreign press covering the story? From the WorldViews post:

Jan. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Italy's political parties and the parliament must "propose and adopt changes to the current electoral law" according to the needs expressed by Italians, President Giorgio Napolitano said in an e-mailed statement.
Italy's Constitutional Court today rejected a possible referendum on changes to the country's electoral law. Napolitano met with in Rome Parliament speakers Gianfranco Fini and Renato Schifani after the decision, according to the statement.

Best Uses
Comments about Nordic Naturals Children's DHA Arctic Cod Liver Oil, Strwbry:
I have 2 young daughters - 4 years old and 16 months old. Both have been using this for well over a year. They both have food allergies and had issues with eczema. After a stool test on my oldest we found that she was extremely low in essential fatty acids...We re-tested 6 months later with daily use of this oil and her EFA levels are phenomenal. Both girls overall health has improved dramatically. They both take it with a little organic apple juice and their daily probiotic. They have both taken it straight with no issues as well.
Be careful not to let it get on clothing...it will leave an odor behind...even after washing.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Recruiting: Think Out of The Box
Finding great talent takes time, effort and creativity. Where do you go to find the right person who can do the essential functions of the position and be happy and productive while doing it? Too often we go to the most obvious places, which has managers competing with other companies in the industry. What if you were to think about people with disabilities?
I saw a post on CFO "Why You Should Hire Autistic Employees" by David McCann. This type of disability could be an advantage in that they could do repetitive work without getting bored.

How can Students with Learning Disabilities Succeed in College? (page 2)
More students with learning disabilities than ever before are attending college (Shapiro & Rich, 1999; Westby, 2000). Kavale and Forness (as cited in Janiga & Costenbader, 2002) report that between 1985 and 1996, the number of full-time first-year college students who reported having a learning disability more than doubled. Some of the increase in students with learning disabilities attending college is undoubtedly due to legislation prohibiting discrimination against persons with disabilities. At one time, college was out of the question for many students with learning disabilities. Beginning in the mid-1970s, however, federal law prohibited institutions of higher education from discriminating against students with disabilities. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 mandates that "no otherwise qualified handicapped individual...shall, solely by reason of his/her handicap, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any program or activity receiving financial assistance."
Applying the phrase "otherwise qualified" in individual cases is not always easy. It is clear, however, that the courts have interpreted it not to mean the lowering of admissions standards. The Supreme Court, in Southeastern Community College v. Davis (1979), ruled that a nursing program could deny admission to a student who was hearing impaired and unable to understand speech because, being unable to hear patients, she might put them in danger. What the law did mean was that decisions should be based on actual abilities rather than prejudicial assumptions (Brinckerhoff, Shaw, & McGuire, 1992). In addition, colleges are to make adjustments in requirements for courses, but these accommodations are not expected to alter the essential aspects of the curriculum (Westby, 2000).
Immediately following the passage of Section 504, colleges and universities did not suddenly throw open their doors to students with disabilities. Over time, as the courts have helped to define the parameters of the law and public opinion about persons with disabilities has improved, many colleges and universities have become more comfortable with the idea of admitting and accommodating students with disabilities, including learning disabilities. Some have centers devoted to services for students with learning disabilities (Westby, 2000). Others have a full-time faculty or staff person who specializes in learning disabilities. This coordinator may have a variety of support staff who provide a number of services, including monitoring academic progress, tutoring, and acting as a liaison to the faculty (Brinckerhoff et al., 2002). In fact, some institutions of higher education have gained reputations as good places for students with learning disabilities to attend because of the level of support offered.
Guidelines for Choosing a College
Choosing a college is difficult for any student. Reputation, academic rigor, location, types of majors offered, extracurricular activities, and cost are just some of the many variables that parents and students consider. In the case of students with learning disabilities, the choice can be even more difficult. They and their parents will also want to consider the level of support offered for those with learning disabilities. See Table 6.1 (page 178) for a list of questions students should consider before applying to a college.
Secondary-school teachers and counselors now recommend that students with learning disabilities who are likely to be college bound begin to seek information on different colleges early in their secondary schooling. In fact, some advocate that one of the transition goals on the IEP be that students be able to research various colleges' entrance requirements, curricula, and learning disabilities services (Blaylock & Patton, 1996).
One issue students need to address when considering colleges is whether they should attend a two-year or a four-year institution. This decision depends on several factors. Many students value two-year colleges because they more often "have open admissions policies; smaller class ratios; comparatively low tuition fees; academic and personal counseling; and a wide range of vocational, remedial, and developmental courses" (Brinckerhoff, 1996, p. 127). Some students, especially those whose disabilities are less severe, are able to handle the less structured setting of a four-year college.
Predictors of Success in College
Most college admissions officers will tell you that predicting how well a particular student will do in college is nearly impossible. Some who have excelled in high school have not been able to do the same in college. Some who barely scraped by in high school suddenly find their niche in college. College and university officials have developed a relatively uniform set of criteria based on predictive studies involving large numbers of applicants. These criteria, such as high school grade-point average (GPA) and SAT scores, are often used because they are the best predictors available, but they are far from perfect.
Selecting which students with learning disabilities are likely to succeed in college is even riskier. We do not yet have a well-established research base on which to make these kinds of predictions with much accuracy, and using traditional criteria is problematic. Students with learning disabilities may not "test well" on standardized tests such as the SAT, even though they are entitled to accommodations, and their GPAs may be difficult to interpret because the courses and accommodations they received may vary considerably, depending on the high schools they attended.
The little research that has been done on predicting college success for students with learning disabilities suggests that admissions officers should look at factors pertaining to performance in high school rather than at admissions tests such as the SAT or the ACT. One team of researchers found that, although far from perfect, such things as high school GPA and number of mainstream English courses completed with a grade of C or better were better predictors than standardized test scores (Vogel & Adelman, 1992). Some indicators such as
strong grade point averages in college preparatory courses, well-developed reading and mathematical skills, above average intelligence, and extracurricular involvement in high school correlate highly with success in college. Indeed, college admissions counselors, often working with support services coordinators, tend to look at these factors when determining whether to accept a student with a learning disability. (Shapiro & Rich, 1999, p. 128)
Demands placed on students differ from high school to college, but colleges require a great deal more student independence than secondary school. For example, there is considerably less classroom instruction in college, the implication being that students will spend more time outside of class reading and studying on their own. Many students have problems adjusting to the decreased structure in college. Students with learning disabilities may have an even more difficult time because they are prone to have problems in independence and their high school programs may have been even more structured than those of most students (Brinckerhoff et al., 1992). These observations have led many college admissions officers to point to motivation and the ability to work independently as important attributes to consider in selecting students with learning disabilities (Spillane, McGuire, & Norlander, 1992). Shannon wonders what it will be like in college:
My parents really want me to go to college, and I guess I do, too, but I think it will be really hard for me. I've heard that sometimes your grade is based on only two tests! What if I don't do well on the first one? How am I going to make myself study ahead of time? I have a tendency to wait until the last minute.
